[SPEAKER_10]: And now, back for the second half of the caliber net show.

[SPEAKER_10]: Michael Mera, radio entertainment.

[SPEAKER_10]: You can listen to the Michael Mera Show at michomerasho.com.

[SPEAKER_10]: Wow, what a happy year.

[SPEAKER_04]: It's a podcast.

[SPEAKER_04]: But I want to excitement.

[SPEAKER_04]: We have today.

[SPEAKER_10]: It's the Michael Mera Show with Michael Mera and Rob Spiewack.

[SPEAKER_10]: Now, here's my...

[SPEAKER_08]: Sunday night bliss for me is when something comes across my feed at that particular hour probably around the seven later than seven PM hour where I have to kind of put everything down and say oh my god I gotta use this for this show there's nothing

[SPEAKER_08]: ever that makes me happier.

[SPEAKER_08]: And so that happened to be last night where I said this video, I have to get it right out to the guys because they're going to enjoy this tomorrow because and I was able in a very short time to create a mini game.

[SPEAKER_08]: out of it.

[SPEAKER_08]: And I don't want to overstate this, but this is what I like to I wrote it down.

[SPEAKER_08]: The TMOs word pronunciation game.

[SPEAKER_07]: And so this is what you do on Sunday nights now that they've canceled sixty minutes.

[SPEAKER_08]: Yeah, do this game now that it's no longer on the air.

[SPEAKER_08]: And you get a reboot because it is you popping and clicking against.

[SPEAKER_08]: All right.

[SPEAKER_08]: I'll wait for you.

[SPEAKER_08]: I'll chat with Josh because we've got a bet to talk about.

[SPEAKER_08]: Rob will join us back in a second and Josh.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's our teams now.

[SPEAKER_08]: I have to tell you this.

[SPEAKER_08]: that the Red Sox played the Orioles starting tonight.

[SPEAKER_08]: And the Red Sox are coming off an absolute lame ass loss to the Florida Marlins with their porous bullpen.

[SPEAKER_08]: And yes, go ahead.

[SPEAKER_08]: The Orioles had a rough Sunday as well.

[SPEAKER_06]: Okay.

[SPEAKER_06]: They, well, they've had a lot of rough Sundays.

[SPEAKER_06]: Well, they, uh, they won twelve to zero.

[SPEAKER_08]: Oh, they did.

[SPEAKER_06]: Oh, you got me.

[SPEAKER_06]: You got me.

[SPEAKER_08]: Okay.

[SPEAKER_08]: So they're kind of coming in with a little bit of a hop in their step then.

[SPEAKER_06]: They brought up their number one and number three prospects this weekend.

[SPEAKER_06]: And it's immediately paid dividends.

[SPEAKER_06]: They've both made impacts right away.

[SPEAKER_06]: Yes.

[SPEAKER_06]: So it seems to work yesterday.

[SPEAKER_06]: The oldest player in the Orioles lineup was Adley Wachman who I believe is twenty four years old.

[SPEAKER_08]: It's interesting you mentioned that because one of the things they were saying about the Florida Marlins when the Red Sox played him yesterday is that they were carefree because they were all such babies.

[SPEAKER_08]: They were all young guys swinging hard, going for it, and that is something that

[SPEAKER_08]: can be very very good in baseball because the red sacks were kind of this veteran outfit uh... so they play how many games three games only two

[SPEAKER_08]: Well, the Red Sox had an opportunity to gain in the division, but they blew it.

[SPEAKER_08]: I'm not a big believer in saving pictures.

[SPEAKER_08]: I think if you have a great arm that's on the bench that can come in and close the game,

[SPEAKER_08]: You put him in.

[SPEAKER_06]: I agree to.

[SPEAKER_08]: I don't like giving out losses and managers will come in and say he's resting this game because we didn't want to put him in the last we had to put him in both games because you're other brother the other relievers suck so point you know put it in your good guy.

[SPEAKER_06]: That's what that's and that's the problem but show what they're made for the Orioles years ago when we were in the playoffs by trying to save the closer right for when we would

[SPEAKER_06]: get to save, but then you put in a lesser picture right into the game and you lost it.

[SPEAKER_08]: And it sucks.

[SPEAKER_08]: So tonight it is going to be a back red socks high, everything working.

[SPEAKER_08]: Better than ever.

[SPEAKER_08]: Red socks orials tonight, Monday and Tuesday night and I don't know if we want to do.

[SPEAKER_08]: I used to do baseball bets.

[SPEAKER_08]: I've never had a lot of success with baseball bets.

[SPEAKER_08]: I really have an eye on me.

[SPEAKER_10]: And now, back for the second half of the caliber net show. [SPEAKER_10]: Michael Mera, radio entertainment. [SPEAKER_10]: You can listen to the Michael Mera Show at michomerasho.com. [SPEAKER_10]: Wow, what a happy year. [SPEAKER_04]: It's a podcast. [SPEAKER_04]: But I want to excitement. [SPEAKER_04]: We have today.

[SPEAKER_08]: I've never had a lot of success with baseball bets. [SPEAKER_08]: I really have an eye on me. [SPEAKER_08]: You are all things to my body. [SPEAKER_06]: You don't need to wear leather or or or die hair or anything like that. [SPEAKER_06]: And we're not going to that bar. [SPEAKER_06]: You went to on the bonus show. [SPEAKER_08]: No, no, no. [SPEAKER_08]: How about this? [SPEAKER_08]: How about this? [SPEAKER_08]: If the red, if the red socks, if you sweep the red socks, I will do the entire show on Wednesday with an Orioles hat on. [SPEAKER_08]: Okay. [SPEAKER_08]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_06]: And what about you? [SPEAKER_06]: I can do the same. [SPEAKER_06]: I can do the same. [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. [SPEAKER_06]: All right. [SPEAKER_08]: And if it's one and one, nobody gets hurt. [SPEAKER_08]: All right. [SPEAKER_08]: I thought if it was split, I could wear a hat. [SPEAKER_08]: You wear a hats anyway. [SPEAKER_08]: Okay. [SPEAKER_08]: That's great. [SPEAKER_08]: If they split, if the Red Sox win one, that's a great idea, Rob. [SPEAKER_08]: And the Orioles win one. [SPEAKER_08]: Rob has to wear [SPEAKER_08]: Hmm, let's make it, let's make it painful for him in a way where he has to like go out and get it. [SPEAKER_06]: No, no, no, we don't. [SPEAKER_06]: None of these bets are to go out and get things. [SPEAKER_06]: You already own it. [SPEAKER_06]: Do you have a Red Sox hat? [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah, I have a Red Sox hat. [SPEAKER_06]: And I have an Orioles hat from when my kid died in that tournament. [SPEAKER_06]: And that's what, yeah, and I've got it from my son. [SPEAKER_06]: I bought him a gift when we went to Fenway. [SPEAKER_06]: Okay. [SPEAKER_07]: I got a little billbox hat like something Jackie O would wear. [SPEAKER_07]: I don't really. [SPEAKER_07]: I was just kidding. [SPEAKER_07]: Have we? [SPEAKER_06]: I was hoping. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, well, I wore it to the, uh, to the appearance. [SPEAKER_07]: But it happens to hats. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I got a dirt. [SPEAKER_07]: I got a Derby as well. [SPEAKER_07]: Well, we haven't seen the Derby yet. [SPEAKER_07]: Okay. [SPEAKER_08]: If things that you wear headphones, though, so hats are, uh, do you have the ear buds that you can wear during a show? [SPEAKER_07]: I can do like this. [SPEAKER_07]: I'm sure. [SPEAKER_07]: I can do it. [SPEAKER_07]: Or I'll figure out something. [SPEAKER_07]: All right. [SPEAKER_07]: What is not going to be a split anyway, I don't think. [SPEAKER_08]: Well, well, they say I think there's a good chance it might be. [SPEAKER_08]: So let me ask you this, Rob, what kind of hats would you suggest, uh, for you? [SPEAKER_07]: Um, let's see. [SPEAKER_07]: I don't have any really baseball center cats. [SPEAKER_07]: I have a, I don't have to be baseball. [SPEAKER_07]: I have a Jimmy's hat. [SPEAKER_07]: I have several T. M. OS hats. [SPEAKER_07]: I have, uh, a really funny squirrel. [SPEAKER_07]: If I had a wig, it'd be wearing it. [SPEAKER_07]: Don't be silly. [SPEAKER_07]: Um, could you, I have a pork by hat. [SPEAKER_07]: I have a straw fedora. [SPEAKER_07]: I have an easy to do with that. [SPEAKER_08]: Any of those, um, [SPEAKER_08]: in like dullest town center. [SPEAKER_08]: Do you have any, I don't want you spending a lot of money either. [SPEAKER_08]: But do you online? [SPEAKER_08]: No. [SPEAKER_07]: Well, what do you, what is your fan? [SPEAKER_08]: What I'd like to make it come with in a real perfect world. [SPEAKER_08]: I would like you to wear an inexpensive hair piece. [SPEAKER_07]: All right. [SPEAKER_08]: not not a wig from a costume shop, but like a realistic, a cheap, but you know, cheap for someone who is really trying to do it. [SPEAKER_08]: Right. [SPEAKER_08]: Is that a possibility at all? [SPEAKER_07]: I think I could do an Amazon Prime and get it here in time. [SPEAKER_07]: Okay, why don't we? [SPEAKER_08]: And then if you get it in, even if there's no split, I'm going to, we'll save it for something special. [SPEAKER_08]: Yes, Josh, go ahead. [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I was thinking that special show might be all three of us come in with wigs. [SPEAKER_08]: Well, I certainly could benefit. [SPEAKER_08]: You would be the most challenged. [SPEAKER_06]: Well, I mean, I'd have to go longer or shorter. [SPEAKER_06]: But I just mean an odd show. [SPEAKER_08]: So if the Orioles sweep, I wear an Orioles hand. [SPEAKER_08]: Threadsax weed, Joshua is red socks hat. [SPEAKER_08]: And if there's a split, which is probably the greatest possibility, we all come in with some sort of hairpiece. [SPEAKER_07]: All of us. [SPEAKER_06]: That'd be great. [SPEAKER_06]: All of us. [SPEAKER_06]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_08]: I think you're kissing your cousin. [SPEAKER_08]: Y'all lose. [SPEAKER_08]: I think that would be wonderful. [SPEAKER_08]: You haven't seen my cousin. [SPEAKER_08]: And that means that the hair pieces are probably put on display no matter what. [SPEAKER_06]: So maybe we should pay off the bet on Thursday. [SPEAKER_08]: OK. [SPEAKER_06]: Because I have a chance to figure it out on Wednesday. [SPEAKER_08]: OK, that's great. [SPEAKER_08]: We will do that. [SPEAKER_06]: Everyone, don't forget your two-pay glue. [SPEAKER_08]: to pay glue. [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, I have a sticky backing where you just peel them on. [SPEAKER_07]: You're peeling stick. [SPEAKER_08]: But I think if you're getting it, if I wanted to really spend money and they are expensive, the good ones. [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, the good ones are you? [SPEAKER_08]: I got a guy. [SPEAKER_08]: I used to get my haircut at a place that was called barber shop prosthetic, which meant they had hairpieces. [SPEAKER_08]: like the real stick on hair pieces that they would use for people. [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. [SPEAKER_07]: And I, you know, well, I will buy a hair piece from a funeral home. [SPEAKER_07]: Well, yeah, because I stopped by to buy my morticians wax anyway. [SPEAKER_07]: Right. [SPEAKER_07]: The thing, let's, if we wear it on Thursday, when we wear them on Thursday, we all have to [SPEAKER_07]: Make up a celebrity that we thought inspired the wig and it'll be up to the other people to guess who we're being. [SPEAKER_08]: Wait, wait, give me that again. [SPEAKER_08]: You're making it complicated. [SPEAKER_08]: What is what's going on? [SPEAKER_08]: This is the way is if you play poker with them, too. [SPEAKER_07]: What is it just one game fifteen years ago, Josh, and never live it down? [SPEAKER_08]: So what are you doing trying to run it? [SPEAKER_08]: What is it? [SPEAKER_07]: I wanted to ruin it by saying that we had to determine which celebrity the wig made us look like. [SPEAKER_07]: That can be the other people had to guess it. [SPEAKER_08]: When we get them all on. [SPEAKER_08]: You and I both would approach this the same way. [SPEAKER_08]: Neither one of us wants to spend a tremendous amount of money on this. [SPEAKER_08]: But with that said, to get the most realistic look for the money. [SPEAKER_08]: So I hope you share your information with me on this. [SPEAKER_08]: So because I'm the next one that's hair challenged. [SPEAKER_07]: Well, what you want to avoid is my grandfather had a mechanic. [SPEAKER_07]: He worked with for many years, named Jim Will. [SPEAKER_07]: And Jim Will was a great mechanic because the delivery truck for our furniture store was not safe at all. [SPEAKER_07]: So every year Jim Will would just come over and put the inspection sticker on the truck without inspecting it, which was nice. [SPEAKER_07]: But Jim Will wore the same to pay for
