What? Here we go. All right, there we go. Good morning and welcome. We got ourselves a Friday to prepare for. Friends, let's see what we have in store weather-wise for...
Today, it's very, very windy today. Again, we're going to have a gust maybe up to 50 miles an hour and a high of about 55, but it's going to feel cooler than obviously with the wind gust. So that's the day we have. The rest of the weekend, looking okay. Tomorrow, clouds in the sun, high of 63. Sunday, cooler, only high of about 51 degrees. And we might get some rain as we move into the start of next week, but we'll worry about that then. Let's take a look at...

Preston and Steve's News Update with Kathy Romano. And today is Friday, March 21st. Good morning, Kathy. Good morning. In the news this morning, London's Heathrow Airport announced a complete shutdown because of a power outage due to a large fire nearby causing massive disruptions to one of the world's busiest travel hubs. That footage of the fire is incredible. It's like...
Shooting right up. Shooting straight up. Heathrow's closure is expected to affect more than 1,300 flights. An airline analytics firm estimated that upward of 145,000 passengers could be impacted, and Heathrow is warning of significant disruption in the coming days. I wonder how many flights were canceled or delayed when we were in Florida, because to me, that airport, I've never seen anything like it. That was packed, packed.
He throws multiple times more traffic. Right, I know. Multiple times. It's a global hub. Yeah, but I would love to see in comparison what this is going to do for people. Flights are being diverted all over Europe, including five flights diverted to UK's Manchester Airport about 200 miles northwest of London.
At least 120 flights in the air were diverted to alternate airports, according to Flight Radar 24. Flights scheduled to land at Heathrow on Friday morning have also been diverted to airports in Madrid, Paris, and Shannon, Ireland. Trains around Heathrow have also been disrupted. Heathrow's backup power supply was...
affected by the fire, Britain's energy secretary said. The large blaze near Heathrow will be a prolonged incident with disruptions for residents in the area expected to increase. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. The UK's energy minister said there was no suggestion of foul play.
It's been nearly a year since the catastrophic collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge after a container ship struck one of its piers. And the National Transportation Safety Board is recommending that the owners of nearly 70 bridges across the United States, including some in the Philadelphia region, conduct vulnerability assessments of the risk of collapse from a vessel collision. Such an assessment could be prevented...
could have prevented the Key Bridge collapse, NTSB chair said on Thursday. The 68 bridges that the NTSB recommends for assessment are those designed before the guidance was established and do not have a current vulnerability assessment, the NTSB said. They include iconic landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in California, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge in Virginia, Brooklyn Bridge in New York,
And the Delaware River Turnpike Bridge, which connects Burlington Township, Burlington County to Bristol Township, Bucks County, is on that NTSB list. There was a list that came out a while ago, and it was suggesting that most of the bridges, maybe all of them in the area, are in some state of dilapidation. Well, so it's not really about that. That's not what this report is saying. It's this assessment that they have to have done. Okay. And so as...
As is the Delaware River Port Authority, which manages the Ben Franklin, Walt Whitman, Commodore Barry and Betsy Ross bridges. Those are all on the list as well. But the Delaware Port Authority says that there is one major difference between Baltimore's Key Bridge and any of the other bridges that span the Delaware River. The CEO of the Delaware River Port Authority says all of our bridges have protection systems in place to protect.
prevent ships from striking them. The key difference sits in the Delaware River near the bridge support pier structures called Dolphins. The Betsy Ross Bridge has concrete dolphins that are protected against ships that will prevent the ship from striking the pier. So that's what they're saying the difference is. The NTSB said Thursday its final report on the Key Bridge collapse will be released this fall.
The Abington Township Police Department is investigating and warning the public after card skimming devices were found at businesses in the area. The devices were found on ATMs at two different 7-Eleven stores on Eastern Road in Abington and Sheltonham Townships. A third device was found on a point of sale device in a grocery store in Abington. Police said because the devices were discovered and confiscated before the criminals who planted them came back for them, they don't believe that anyone's information is compromised.
But police are still encouraging people to be more aware. Detectives say the panel over the ATM keyboard should be a completely flat surface. Be mindful if you detect any resistance when inserting your card. Also, grab the faceplate. If it's loose, the machine could be compromised, potentially giving criminals domestically or internationally access to your money. I do that all the time. And then I also I won't use an ATM in a place that I have even the slightest problem.
Second thought about it, yeah. Police said extra security steps you can use in your routine to protect yourself include tapping to pay, paying with cash, or covering your PIN as you enter it. So I always cover the PIN. I don't know what that does, but I always cover it. In case somebody's watching, but if you go into the Wawa, some of them have now the ATMs have the tap.
You don't even have to insert the card. You don't have to insert the card at all. On Thursday, authorities in Mount E from New Jersey also reported the discovery of a skimming device at a 7-Eleven convenience store on the 500 block of West Kings Highway. If you come across a skimming device, report it immediately. In sports this morning... ... ... ... ... ... ...

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. I'm going to find out what G.I. was talking about first. Let me ask the stupid question, which is a 50-point. We're going to give away a 50-point card to Arnold's Family Fun Center, which is, by the way, our big freaking deal this week. So here's the question. Never knew this. What's the only mammal...
With four knees. The only mammal with four knees. Text the word ZOOM to 39333 and we'll put you in line and maybe we'll pull you up and see if you can answer that. But I've never thought about this. What is the only mammal with four knees? All right, Nick, where are you guys laughing at? So the Phillies have their last spring training game, which is hard to believe, on Monday afternoon. It's a 12-35 game and then the spring training ends and the regular season begins next Thursday in D.C. against the Washington Nationals. Kathy...
believes that the Phillies will come home to Philadelphia in between their last spring training game. And I believe that they will go directly from Florida to Washington. Okay. And now, mind you, Nick already owes me a bottle of champagne because of the over-under on the Taylor Swift appearances at the Super Bowl. That's right. So we're going double or nothing here. Oh, wow. Champagne. Yeah. Okay.
All right, we'll see how that works out. So you either get a really nice bottle or nothing. Yeah, that's true. That's true. It's all on the line. All right, we will mention some birthdays while we're waiting for your answer. And today is the 21st day of March. It's Matthew Broderick's birthday. Matthew Broderick turns 63. Good call on the music, Casey. I like that. Ferris Bueller's day off, obviously. Thank you, boy.
But he's been great. Was War Games the first thing you remember seeing him in? Yeah, it's probably the first thing I remember seeing him in. Then obviously in Tavares Bueller and all the other stuff. But yeah, War Games definitely. And Ally Sheedy's first time seeing her as well. Oh, that's right. She was adorable in that movie. I loved her.
So happy 63rd birthday to Matthew Broderick. It is Timothy Dalton's birthday today. Timothy Dalton was an absolutely wonderful James Bond, The Living Daylights, and License to Kill. I only know that because it's written down here. Two powerful Bond movies. You know what? I really enjoyed him in, Stephen. I know you haven't watched all of the seasons of The Crown, but he shows up.
As an older... He's in the first season, the character that he plays. Right. And then years and years later, I think it was with Princess Margaret, an old flame, he comes back as him. And he's wonderful. He's excellent. Do you know who loves him? Edgar Wright and all those guys, all those British filmmakers love Timothy Dalton. And Timothy Dalton, of course, was also in Preston. Flash Gordon. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. Oh, my God, that's right. He's the storm-wielding guy. He's great in that movie. He turns 79 years old today. Comedic actor Brad Hall celebrates his birthday. He was an SNL member for a time. He was on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and he and Julia Louis-Dreyfus have been married since 1980. Forever, yeah. So he turns 67 years old today. Ah, the great Gary Oldman has his birthday. Did you see the Colbert thing with Oldman?
Yeah, when they put in farts in some of his pivotal scenes. Yes, I enjoyed how much Oldman enjoyed it. Oh, he was cracking up. Yeah, he really laughed a lot. Yeah, it had very serious moments in like Churchill and Dracula. They would put Ed in farts in this scene.
Facial expressions was great. He is 67 today. Ah, speaking of great, Roger Hodgson. Yes. Of Supertramp celebrates his birthday. You and I are massive Supertramp fans. Man, I love going down a path with those guys. That music is wonderful. I listen to that live Paris concert all the time and that version of Fool's Overture with the crowd going ape-ass is awesome.
So he turns 75 years old today. Not only a great singer and songwriter, great guitar player too, man. If you see him playing the solos in those songs, he's wonderful. Marissa, does that mean we have one minute?
One minute until we go on 6 ABC, so we'll get ready for that. He is 75 today. All right. Sum 41's Derek Whibley has his birthday today. He turns 45 years old. Who figured they'd be back? Now I know. And with a good song. Yeah, Landmines that we played. Hold on a second. Marissa, what? President Trump is taking steps to eliminate the U.S. Education Department. You said we had one minute left. What's going on?
30 seconds. 30 seconds is the new one, man. We thought that we were going on right then. All right, so you heard him in the background. I'll bring him back up as we get a little bit closer. Derek Wibley is 45 today. It's Kevin Federline's birthday today. Oh, my gosh. Hey, Fed. Britney's ex, the creator of Popo's Owl. Popo's Owl. And he has the kids, right? Yeah.
Yes. Or I guess they're older now. No, he's got full custody. All right, here we go, guys. He's 47. Copyright breeds of the past year. Two dog lovers are barking up our front door to chime in. That would be President Steve from WMMR. Good morning, guys. Good morning. The French Bulldog, number one, third year in a row, followed by the Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever, German Shepherd, and Poodle. What say you? Uh,
I'm a dog lover. I absolutely... I can't settle on a... There's no way I can settle on a favorite person. You like smaller dogs, though. I do. I am a smaller dog. We have two Yorkies at my house. And growing up, we had like a teacup poodle. We had a little itty-bitty dog. I love little dogs. And do you know where his love of small dogs comes from? The fear of larger dogs stepping on his private parts. Dude, I can't...
When I see labs at the top of the list all the time, because they're in second place, I believe, or second or third place. But yes, any Labrador of any type, if I am in a room, it will come and jump on me right there. And every time. I think an elephant could do way more damage. Yes, well, that's why he doesn't have an elephant, Matt. There seems to be more to the story that you need to tell us, maybe just not on TV. And now we know, yip, yip.
What about the Billy Mutt? Shouldn't it be in there somewhere? All my life I've had mutts and they're always wonderful. Right now we have a rescued Newfie from a puppy mill out in Western PA. She's a senior.
And I love her. She is awesome. She's got webbing between her paws. But, you know, I think we talk about this. Ricky Gervais once said humans don't deserve dogs. They're that wonderful. You know, true, true. Yeah, I think that's a good point. Tam, Mott's Kennel Club doesn't recognize it. Doesn't even recognize hybrids like Bailey. Yeah, which is a she, Sean and a Bailey.
It's a she-shot. It's a big, I don't know. You're flirting with cursing right now. I think he is. My dog is just, you know, so much running around South Carolina. Had a good time and we got Henry out. There you go. Let me ask you, do your dogs, will you allow the dogs to sleep on the bed with you?
He allows us to get in the way. He lays across the middle. The other day, I looked over and Bailey, my dog, was sleeping like a person. Head on a pillow, vertically down the bed as if it was a human being. And then the next day, he was the opposite way, which was not pleasing when I rolled over. I love how dog trainers say if you do that, you surrender your dominance over them. You surrender that the day you get them. So, yeah. Yes.
Did you guys know you're supposed to not let them in the door first when you walk them? That's how you show them who is the pack leader. My dog said, if you try that, I might bite your foot. He goes through the door first. That ain't happening. No, the food. That's your control. The food. Good point. Opposable thumbs to open up the bag of food.
How about this? Hooray for dogs. Hooray for dogs. Absolutely. Take care, guys. We'll see you later. You're supposed to wait. It's also so that they don't, even when you open the door, so they don't
run out. Bolt. Bolt. Even if they're not running into the street, just maybe going to the bathroom, it's like, wait, I go out and now you have permission to come out. So the alpha of our two dogs is their female dog, Haley. She's a smaller one. She has to have a little chihuahua in her. She looks a little bit like it. She's very feisty like a chihuahua.
When I go to the door anytime and she's getting ready to go out, she, on her hind legs, jumps up and down at the door, scratching at the door. It's like you can't contain. Forget it. I also think there's like some dogs and some breeds that are just, not that they're not
But, like, that dog's just going to do that. Yeah. Do you think you could ever, like, train her not to do that? I just think it's the kind of feral nature inside there. You take care of them. You feed them. You love them. And so they have their personalities. Well, this isn't celebrity news, but I saw this yesterday. Caitlin Olsen yesterday had posted on Instagram. Actually, Rob posted it. Rob McElhenney. It was a picture of them with their dog. They had to put their dog down. Oh.
It was terrible. I texted him and he got back to me and thanked me for, you know, just trying to comfort him as best as I can. But it's like...
You're losing a family member. It absolutely is. It can affect you that strongly. It's just terrible. So it was tough to see anybody. Anybody you know go through that. It's a real loss. So sad to hear that. All right. A couple other quick birthdays and then we will move along. The very beautiful Kathy Ireland. It all started on Kathy's birthday. Picnics, party hats, even balloons with her.
based on them okay so i follow kathy ireland on instagram current iteration of kathy ireland if she's had work done it's good work she seems to be aging pretty gracefully i got out of school early one day to go down and meet her she did a like a bud light or budweiser appearance and she was a spokesperson and my mom literally wrote me a note so that my friend john and dave and i could drive into the city steve she was at the irish pub we weren't even 18 yeah and it was the saint patty's day promotion and we waited in the uh
alley behind the Irish pub for Kathy Ireland to come out and when she walked out our jaws dropped. That's like in person unbelievably stunning beautiful. Staggering. Then my friend Dave just goes like after an awkward pause he just goes
Steve, I love that you said that she had whatever face or whatever work she's had done. It's good work. Yeah. I feel like, you know, like years ago, you look at people and we would laugh and make fun of them. You know, still do look at some people who have had too much work done. But now I feel like I'm at the age where I'm like, well, not bad work. That's acceptable. That's acceptable.
I was just talking to a friend last night. She's like, if I could just get like, I don't want like a facelift. I want like a little like pullback. Now you're bargaining. It's like, hey, you figure out how am I going to bargain with death? I could do that. I guess I could have that done. But someone like her who,
who has some good, you know, good work done. She's had a little bit, but doesn't look like a lion, you know? Right, right, right. Do you remember she was in a movie with Samuel L. Jackson and Emilio Estevez? It was a parody of the Lethal Weapon movies. Oh, yeah. And, yeah, so there's this sort of plain secretary, and they say, you know, and kind of like actually unattractive, and they sort of say to her, you know, a bit of your...
Let your hair down. You look pretty good. That's right. And she leans over and then she lifts up and she's Kathy Ireland. Yeah. Wow. And then carries on the rest of the movie as Kathy Ireland. Loaded weapons, Steve. Loaded weapons. Oh, my God. Yeah. Wow. Well, she is 62 today. She appeared in 13 consecutive Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. Wow. Loved her. And then the last birthday we have, she was also in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, Rosie O'Donnell. Rosie O'Donnell. Turned out good.
63 today. What is this? A lot of Rosie. A lot of Rosie. I'll tell you what.
Rosie O'Donnell, many years ago, when I was starting stand-up, was very kind to me at the East Side Comedy Club. Cool. Gave me some pointers. It was very complimentary. She's now living in Ireland, I guess. Yeah, and by the way, it was about 20 years ago now when she did that Mayford Healy movie, because we weren't on the air. I'm looking for the clips. Yeah. Actually, she abided by the Tropic Thunder rule. Yeah, which is...
Play it safe. 63 today. All right, let's see if we can get an answer to the super question this morning via Zoom. What is the only mammal with four knees? Never heard this before. We're going to go to Nancy, who is joining us via Zoom. Good morning, Nancy. Good morning. All right, Nancy, enlighten us. What's the only mammal with four knees, please? Would that be an ostrich? It is not an ostrich. Oh!
I thought maybe they kept two in a bag. The ostrich is not a mammal. It's a bird. All right, so we need to get... What? I was just guessing another one now. Oh, no, we got to go through somebody else. Sorry, Nance. All right, Marissa, when you get a chance, pull somebody else up. I'll get into our first story here.
Blake Lively has joined her husband, Ryan Reynolds, in trying to get a defamation suit filed by Justin Baldani against her dismissed. And in the new filing, she argues that Baldani's lawsuit is retaliation for her filing a sexual harassment claim against him. Now, Lively's attorney specifically invoked a law that protects sexual harassment accusers in their request for dismissal. The law was signed into law in 2023 in response to multiple defamation suits filed
being filed against women who had spoken up during the Me Too movement, but it doesn't stop there. Hang on a second. It sounds like it's flanging, doesn't it? No, my mic has turned the wrong way. I thought it was my headphones. I thought it was my headphones.
I was going to say something when we went into break. I just sent a message to Nick. I go, does his microphone sound weird? What's going on? Alright, there we go. It was turned sideways. Remember yesterday when I was fussing with the mics, Kathy? That's exactly what I thought. Something's wrong with this. It doesn't sound... I had to go hit buttons in the other studio prior to all of this because Jackie Bam Bam sometimes takes it out of program, blah, blah, blah. He changes everything. Listen, he hits knobs and buttons that he shouldn't be hitting. They don't even know what they
Well, now we fixed it. We're good. All right. So anyhow, back to the story. So this doesn't stop there. So Blake's lawyers say that the law means that Baldani is actually on the hook for her attorney fees as well as damages if his suit gets thrown out. According to this source, in other words, if an epic accident
self-owned, they have created more liability in an epic cell phone. They have created a more liability for themselves by their malicious efforts to sue Ms. Lively into oblivion. So as this plays out, and I was trying to understand this Preston. So let's say you are this guy and you've done hypothetically, he's done nothing wrong. He gets accused of being of these allegations of him, of him being sexually aggressive or whatever.
I mean, do you have to just take it or can you have a reciprocal lawsuit back? I think you have to wait till the first one is over. Yeah. Then you can do it. But in that time, as it goes on and on, and I understand the Me Too sentiment and I understand all that. In that amount of time, say for a year and a half, two years in the court system, you can do...
destroy someone's livelihood and everything, which is what he's claiming. So I don't know where I'm coming down on this, but that seems like... Then I guess maybe if he's exonerated in that, then he can counter, you know what I mean? But the damage has been done at that point, right? But hopefully you can recuperate. Well, then hopefully recuperate in the countersuit. I don't know. We're all pre-med. All right, let's see if we get an answer and...
And it is, the question is, what is the only mammal with four knees? We now go to Blake. Speaking of Blake, say Blake. Good morning, bud. Good morning. You guys rock. Thank you, sir. By the way, Blake is rocking a Zac Efron vibe. Are you getting that? Maybe a little bit. Yeah. All right. So what is the only mammal with four knees, sir? That would be an elephant. That is correct. Oh!

sex traffickers. Huh. The reality TV star said that it would be, is said to be worried about the long-term impact. Well, that's one less invite for Thanksgiving. That his public statements on social media could have on their children. So sources told TMZ that Kim is devastated about how things are going and she's been working very hard to protect the kids from anything that might affect their view of their dad.
but he's making it difficult. I can't believe that's who she chose to have kids with. Well, look at the whole array of them. But she could pick anyone, really. Well, at that time... That's what you chose? You know, do you remember, by the way, going to that point, do you remember when he said he first was...
became aware of her and got into her was watching the porn movie. Was watching the... I mean, that's... Is that what you tell someone? I mean, I waited... You wait... You're supposed to wait until the fifth day before you say it's the porn movie. But I guess, Kathy, before he went off the deep end, he must have had some kind of charisma. You know what I mean? He was a musical genius at that time. I would like you to listen to Poopity Spoon.
I just think once you got to know him, he was always a little off the wall. You know what I mean? Like she had to have seen something and now we're just all seeing it. At the time, he was the hottest thing, you know, and so I think that's part of it too. You're right, Steve. So a source shared with Page Six that Beyonce and Jay-Z have been discussing their legal options when it comes to dealing with him after he attacked their children in a tweet storm.
He had apparently, the source says Jay-Z and Beyonce are aware of the post Kanye has since deleted and are discussing how they want to handle this situation, whether it be privately and or in a legal matter. Do you ever leave the house without your umbrella and realize it's a tweet storm outside?
Demi Moore on Bruce Willis' 70th birthday with a heartfelt Instagram post featuring recent family photos. The pictures captured sweet moments between Bruce and Demi, their daughters and granddaughter, offering fans a rare look at the legendary actress since his retirement in 2022. Of course, he had the aphasia diagnosis.
And it was eventually progressed to frontal temporal dementia. They were married from 1987 to 2000. And they have three daughters, Rumor, Scout, and Tallulah, who each posted their own touching birthday tributes. Rumor shared a sweet video of her parents kissing.
while Scout reflected on her father's impact, saying, the music I make, the magic I create, and the magnetic mischief I incite, that's my father's legacy alive in the world. Sorry, go ahead. She praised her dad's unforgettable characters, calling him a spaceman, a hero with a badge, and a sassy detective with unparalleled banter. That video, and it appeared to be...
Like super recent. I was wondering if it was one that was from years ago, but he's having a wonderful time. He's dancing. He's smiling. He's engaging, and they're all loving the moment. It's a really sweet video. That's great. I mean, you know, it's unfortunate.
that obviously this is happening to him. But that support system seems to be really, really strong. Dude, I was sad to see this. We were just talking about this guy recently, actor Wings Hauser. Yes. It was his birthday not that long ago. Versatile character actor, known for his intense turns in movies like Jojo Dancer, Your Life is Calling, Vice Squad, which is what we were talking about not that long ago. And Tough Guys Dosed...
Don't dance. He passed away. He was 77. That was Cole Hauser's father? Cole Hauser's father is Wings Hauser. I knew that name. I knew him first. Preston, you've seen the movie Vice Squad. That's where you first hear the phrase, go ahead, make your move, make my day, which was later co-opted for a Clint Eastwood movie. Oh, I didn't know that. So Hauser's death over the weekend was announced on the Facebook page of the indie film and music studio that he ran with his third wife, Callie. No other details.
were immediately available. Hauser had his breakthrough when he starred as a psychopath pimp known as Ramrod in Vice Squad. That was in 1982. Do you remember his thing was he would use car aerials and coat hangers. He also sang the theme song to the movie, Neon Slime.
Later, he played a racist U.S. Army officer in a soldier story, a cocaine dealer and JoJo dancer, and a cop in Tough Guys Don't Dance. His first prominent role came when he joined the cast of CBS soap opera The Young and the Restless. He played Greg Olsen.
Foster in 1977 and he stuck with the role for three seasons and then came back for a couple of episodes in 2010. And he was in tons of TV shows, China Beach, Roseanne, Beverly Hills 90210, just to name a few. But 77 years old, no cause of death or anything like that. And obviously he was survived by his son, Cole Hauser. It's kind of young, man. Yellowstone, Rip Wheeler. And he's in...
Good Will Hunting, too. I wonder if Wings was at all helpful with Matt Damon and Ben Affleck in that movie made because he was an established actor and those guys had done some roles. Right. But I wonder if he had any connections that were helpful to them. It's quite possible. I'm sad to see that.
Abbott Elementary star Quinta Brunson has filed for divorce from her husband. When I saw this, I had no idea she was married. Yeah, they've only been married for three years, Steve. Kevin J. Anik is his name. In court docs, the actress listed the couple's date of separation as to be determined and cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the split. She noted that the pair entered into a post-nuptial agreement.
which governs the disposition of their property. Postnuptial. Yeah, I'm not familiar with it. I'm not giving you anything. The two have been married since October 2021. You're not getting any alimony. I don't want any alimony. Preston, I have an update, if you'd like. Yeah. Breaking news. Once again, I've lost the bet. I got an email from Steve Cohen. We met Steve last week down at spring training, and he's the orthopedic surgeon for the Phillies. Really nice guy. He came over and chatted with us for a bit.
Yeah. Listening on my way into surgery this morning. FYI, by the way, a surgeon listening to our show. Yes, unbelievably. Orthopedic surgeon. Listening on my way into surgery today, this morning. FYI, the Phillies are returning home before taking the train to D.C. for the first series. Sorry. Sorry.
So I am 0 for 2. Kathy. Dom Perignon. Nick, is there any way that he can add to the operations today pulling your head out of your ass? Hey, Steve. Dr. Conan. Kathy, two bottles of Dom now. Or do you upgrade your original to a more expensive...
Dom is expensive. That's what I said to him. I go, all right, so I don't want two bottles. Just get me one nice bottle. One time, by the way, we brought Dom Perignon to a New Year's party.
They served it in plastic cups. You know what? The only time I ever had Cristal was out of a plastic cup in a limousine. Oh, wow. The only time I bought, I went out and bought a bottle of Dom was for a New Year's Eve party. And at about 3 a.m., I was smelling it as I was puking it right into the trash can. And literally, I'm throwing up. I'm going, damn it. You're so expensive. I paid so much money for this. No way.
All right. So, Steve, I started re-watching The Last of Us in preparation for the next season coming up. And there's a story about one of the stars. She was also in Game of Thrones, or they were also in Game of Thrones. Bella Ramsey has revealed in an interview with British Vogue that the actor has been diagnosed with autism. Saw this. Ramsey explains that a crew member on The Last of Us with a daughter with autism assumed that they had autism as well.
And that assumption inspired Ramsey to get a psychiatric assessment, which led to a formal diagnosis. The actor describes finally knowing as freeing. They said it enables me to walk through the world with more grace towards myself about not being able to do the easy everyday tasks that someone, that everyone else seems to be able to do. She can, I mean, or they, I guess, can act. Can we, yeah. Lines of dialogue. Yes.
I mean, that's pretty amazing. Yeah, so Ramsey also said the condition has helped them, their career, adding having to learn more manually how to socialize and interact with people around me has helped me with acting. Those two together, they were at some sort of function and they had their arms around each other and they were hugging each other. There is really a real paternal sort of thing going on with him. I agree. So it comes out in a couple of weeks, the new episode. April 13th is when that starts. I'm looking forward to it.
So, let's see what else we got here for you. Jack Black has released a new original song. It's called I Feel Alive off the soundtrack for a Minecraft movie. And this new song follows Black releasing Peaches for the Super Mario Brothers movie. In a Minecraft movie, it features a ton of dangerous stuff like zombies and dragons. And the song...
plays on all of that with Black singing, for example, I Don't Want to Be Running from Zombies for the Rest of Our Lives. The upcoming movie stars, of course, him, Jason Momoa, Danielle Brooks, Emma Myers, and Sebastian Hansen. And that will hit theaters on April 4th. So with the Minecraft fans in your various spheres, how are they reacting to what they're seeing? I've heard, I mean, so my kids, I think I talked to
Maybe I talked to all of them, but they didn't have high hopes for it. No, okay. They weren't turned on by the trailer. Not very much so, which is interesting. So I'm curious, and I haven't heard any real interest level from them either. Like they want to get out and see it right away or anything like that. But we'll see. We'll see.
Let me see here. The first teaser trailer for director Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another has dropped. The brief trailer features Leonardo DiCaprio, Regina Hall, Tiana Taylor, and Sean Penn, mainly focusing on people shooting guns in a field. It even features a baby who, when they grow up, also gets to shoot guns.
A gun in a field. They should have the baby shooting a gun in the field. That'd be really cool. A full, let me see, the full trailer is set to drop next week. And before this teaser was released, the only details about the movie were that it was in a contemporary setting and that it was an ensemble piece. So I have no idea what it's about. But those are some big names. And the clip that's been released, DiCaprio looks kind of like a drifter. Oh, really? Like a real, like he's not, he's not a pretty boy. Okay. All right.
Let's see. Oh, this is cool to see. Disney's annual shareholders meeting revealed that the House of Mouse is thinking years down the line and CEO Bob Iger announced that the studio is working on a sequel to the 2017 animated hit, Cow Cow.
Coco! Oh, God, I love that movie. Yes, I should get a taste of Coco. Oh, yeah, Giacchino posted something about it yesterday. I don't know if you saw that, Preston. I did not, no. Coco is a delightful movie. It is. It is not one that is in the upper tier for me, but I enjoyed it a lot. And visually, it's stunning. Boy, it's one of those that makes me cry my eyes out when I see it, though, man. Yeah. There's some moments in there where you're just like, oh, my God. It deals with...
Yeah, it's all about death. It's pretty wild. Oh, my God. But the grandmother and all that. And forgetting about people. People. Yes. And they're gone. Like, oh, my God. Oh, my God. Coco made me cry. Coco. Yeah, they announced. Coco made me cry. They announced the director. And Michael Giacchino shared that in his stories because he did the music for the first one for Coco, too. I don't know if he'll do the music for the second one. But the director is Lee Unkrick. Okay. I'm not sure who that person is. But, yeah.
Adrian Molina will be the co-director. It does not hit theaters until 2029, by the way. Here's what they need to do, though. So much of you look at the rosters. Reboots, remakes. I can guarantee you in short order there will be a live-action Coco at some point. They're doing all this sort of stuff. In return to...
taking chances now on some properties. Dude, that would lend itself to a live stage show because of all of the crystal stones and all that stuff. Really, really cool. Oh, and I wanted to mention this before we wrap the entertainment report. Shark Tank is
is hosting an open casting call in Philadelphia on Friday, April 11th. It will be at the Event Center at Rivers, the casino. And if you have a groundbreaking product, a game-changing business plan, or an idea that could make millions, this is your opportunity to pitch it directly to the show's casting team. The show is on fire. We have been flirting with the notion of doing something called Shart Podcast.
Tank. Short for the longest time. Yep. That was basically this. Yeah. But if you were, you know, if you have something, give it to me.
Give it a shot. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, it'd be great if we could do that. We just don't have any money to help you with it. And we have no business savvy whatsoever. None. We just sit there and go, that's pretty good. Maybe we could do an ad campaign or something like that. You could win an ad campaign. You could take exposure on air of your product. Entrepreneurs must be 18 years or older or accompanied by a parent or guardian to participate. Wristbands will be distributed between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. and interviews begin at 10 a.m. No one will be allowed in online.

A complete short application is required to pitch. This application can be downloaded in advance, and organizers stress the importance of filling it out fully and legibly before arriving.
Attendees are responsible for their own parking and security may check bags upon entry. So Philly-based entrepreneurs have made waves on Shark Tank in the past. Last year, Max Litchi and Kasi Rahman of Chomp Saw landed a $250,000 investment from Mark Cuban and Lori Grenier for their kid-friendly cardboard cutting tool.
And they've sold nearly 10,000 units, bringing in over $2.1 million in revenue. Another success story is Black Pepper Party, a paper party. This holiday wrapping paper company, co-founded in Philly by Madia Willis. The business specializes in gift wrap featuring black stars.
Santa's and festive characters secured a $250,000 deal with Barbara Corcoran. And then there's Simply Good Jars, a Philly-based fresh salad company that pivoted to retail during the pandemic and won a half million dollars from Cuban and Grenier. And
And the company is now stocked in Walgreens and convenience stores across the country. Also, Scrub Daddy is local as well. And that was Shark Tank? It was definitely Shark Tank. That wasn't City Kitty? Yes, she was Bucks County. And that was the Shark Tank thing. Now, I don't know how successful all those have become. I mean, Scrub Daddy is...
You can find them anywhere. They're in Target. Yeah. We use them at home. I love them. Yeah. All right. You should send us stuff. We are ready for clips. Here we go. Do we have movies opening this weekend? Movies opening this weekend! Opening this weekend is Snow White. A fantasy adventure drama stars Rachel Zegler, Gal Gadot, and Andrew Burnett.
So, the story in the role... So, Rachel Zegler and the title role in Gal Gadot as her stepmother, the Evil Queen. The magical music adventure journeys back to the timeless story with beloved characters Bashful, Doc Dopey, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, and Sneezy. Hour and 49 minutes long rated PG wide theater release and it's only clocking in at 47% on Rotten Tomatoes. Then, the Alto Knights...
The Alto Nights is a crime drama and it stars Robert De Niro, Robert De Niro, and Debra Messing. Two of New York's most notorious organized crime bosses, Frank Costello and Vito Genovese, vie for control of the city streets. Once the best of friends.
Petty jealousies and a series of betrayals place them on a deadly collision course that will reshape the mafia and America forever. Two hours long. It's rated R and it's a wide theater release. Rotten Tomatoes gives that a 38%. And then the last one is Popeye the Slayer Man. Stop it. It's a horror mystery and...
And it says here in the description, you don't know them, so why bother? As far as starting. So a curious group of friends sneak into an abandoned spinach canning factory. This is real? This is real. Yeah, dude. You know, because all these things are now becoming public domain. Doesn't mean that they should make the movie. To investigate the legend of the sailor man who is said to haunt the factory and local docks.
It is an hour and 28 minutes long. It's rated R. It's a limited theater release and there is no score available for this. Of course, yes. Alright, oh my god. We should see the Slayer man. You gotta see a clip of Popeye and he obviously has the big forearms. Oh my god. It's not Rooker, is it? No, no, no. There's nobody notable in it. Alright, we're ready for the clips, y'all.
So, Anora swept the Oscars, winning five of its six nominations. And here, Mikey Madison speaks about how the film impacted her personally. There will always be a small part of me that carries around the experience of making the film and the character because it has changed my life in so many ways. You know, not all of this that's happening right now, but just the experience of being able to work with Sean Baker, the experience of learning and meeting incredible people from the sex work community. Could you shut up?
Nora is now available to stream, and that's on Hulu. Here's our next clip.
The new live-action Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs features a plethora of musical performances. And in this clip, Martin Kleba, who plays Grumpy, praises Rachel Ziegler's performance as the Disney princess. We all pulled off something really amazing, you know, musically. But Rachel Ziegler just knocked it out of the park. I mean, she is so amazing when she sings. She really just makes you fall right into the story and forget anything else that's going on. Shut the f*** up!
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs does open today in theaters, as we said earlier. And there's your entertainment report this morning. We got a bunch of things going on today. We have joining us in the 8 o'clock hour, Landon Dickerson of your Super Bowl champion, Philadelphia Eagles. And joining him in the studio will be Steve DeLong. There's a fundraiser coming up with the Eagles.
And they're an autism charity. So we'll get to the details on that later on. 9 o'clock hour, Christopher Titus is stopping by. That means, folks, that we're going to have to get to the connoisseur next. I got some good stuff for you. And we have some things to give away as well. So we'll take a quick break.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. Quickly, before we dive into this segment, I do want to mention a personal thing. A while back, I brought in some for show and tell. I brought some toys in to show you guys.
And I had a promotional item from the movie Toy Story 2. It was Al's Toy Barn. Oh, yeah. It was all of the toys that McDonald's released in conjunction with that film. And I had this display that they're all in. They were brand new. I never touched any of it. Pristine. Absolutely pristine condition. Satisfying all the elements that collectors look for. These are basically as...
clean as the day you were given them. So that and a few other things have gone up on auction on archiveauction.com. They're located in Lansdale. It's this really cool place and I gotta thank Tank. Tank! The guy who runs the shop over there who's got these up and running now. So the...
The items are now active and you can bid on them. And not for very long. So I think it ends on the 2nd of April is when the local sales. So there's a local and a shipping sale. So the local stuff you have to go pick up. And the shipping sale closes on the 9th. And within the shipping sale is the Toy Story 2 Al's Toy Barn. I also have one from a couple of other Disney things like Atlantis. I had a similar toy pack for that. Never touched. Brand new stuff. Right.
And then it's actually, he named it on the website, the Preston Elliott Collection. I love that. You have competition now, Kathy, with your jewelry line. Oh, that's right. And also my Budweiser beer steins and my Derby glasses. Yeah, the Kentucky Derby collectible glasses are all up for bid now. Oh, you can hear the excitement right now. So go to archiveauction.com.
It's a little tough to navigate. I eventually found my items, but if you dig around a bit or if you search on Preston, you should be able to find them. Okay, so just put in Preston in the search bar. Yeah, archiveauction.com. So I'd like to move these products and get them into a home where someone will appreciate them. All this stuff has just been in storage forever. I'm not looking to make...
bank on this. I just want them to go to someone who will appreciate them, use them, display them, maybe get something, some kind of satisfaction out of it. The way to find out it's going to go to someone who really wants it is if they pay a little bit to get it. Yeah. Rather than just putting it in a bin somewhere. Right. Especially with the Toy Story stuff, those are real collectibles. By the way, the bidding starts at $5.
Wow. Yeah. So get started on it. Let's get that up to 10. Archiveauction.com. All right. Today is Friday. Let's do the connoisseur. Okay. It's time for the Friday
of the connoisseur. All right. Lots of stories to share with you this morning and stuff to give away as well. And it is brought to you by Acme Markets. I was there yesterday. The official supermarket of the Preston and Steve show. We're going to give away $50 Acme Market gift cards for the movie lines when we play them. So we'll start off with a story though first and then we'll get into the movie lines. Or do we do the movie lines first? No. Okay. All right. So I have two stories in this first connoisseur segment.
And it is from Michael Klein's Let's Eat newsletter. Marissa got this. She's kind of my inside person for the food stories as well. She's your deep throat. She doesn't want me to share that, but I'll allow it because she, of course, has her podcast, which is awesome. And I always forget the name. Marissa, Delicious City?
Yes, Delicious City. I got it right. Nice job. We're doing our Merch Madness right now where we're doing a contest for restaurants that have the best merch. Merch Madness. Right now. What are you wearing now? This is Human Robot, which is a brewery located in Northern Liberty's Fishtown area. Okay. And it's like Pafuta, Northern Liberty's. I'm sorry. Pafuta. A whole bunch of restaurants. So go to the Delicious City podcast Instagram page.
Also, Marissa Magnata Instagram. And there's a fun video that Nick Murphy put together. All right, merch madness. Merch madness. You can win it all. We're going to start with this story. Michael Klein in his Let's Eat News newsletter says that on Friday, today...
There are free eggs available. So Krista Barfield, Chester County's Farmer John, will give away 500 dozen eggs to 500 households from New York to Philadelphia, along with 100 cuts of lamb.
So a month ago, she gave away 3,600 eggs to 300 households in New York and Philadelphia. So she and her team are going to stop at the Melton Center, which is at 500 East Market Street in Westchester at 1 o'clock today. And then arrive around 2.15 in front of Yard Outlet.
Out Fitness, which is on Germantown Avenue. At each location, she will give away 100 dozen eggs and 50 cuts of lamb. Giving them away. So where are these... She has a farm? Is this her thing? I don't... How does she come by all these eggs? It says here in the...
sheet of information. It says she's with Farmer John Agriculture. So I don't know much about Farmer John. Maybe she's like a cooperative? Maybe. But she's doing this full-on giveaway. She's giving away 500 dozen eggs. What can go wrong with handing out that many eggs to people in the city? It might get messy. Dude, my son works at a grocery store and they are out of eggs already.
All the time. I mean, it's just a really difficult thing to keep in stock right now. Farmer John is a non-profit. Did you say that? I did not say that. Okay, yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah, it's a 501c3 children's education farm. Okay, excellent. All right, and then the other one from Michael Klein's newsletter. On Sunday, Delco Steaks at Broomall will mark National Cheesesteak Day with Cheesesteak Bowl at Marple Public House.
Is this a competition? It is. So contestants will try to eat as many Delcos, which is a foot-long cheesesteak featuring 10 ounces of ribeye plus Cooper Sharp on a seated Kerangi roll, to eat as many as they can in 10 minutes. Dude, so why I pretty much stopped eating cheesesteaks a while ago is that I feel...
A couple bites and I'm just stuffed. You know, that's... And occasionally I'll have chicken cheesesteaks. That's my thing. But it's been forever since I've had them because I find them so filling. It starts at 2 o'clock. And again, this is on Sunday.
A championship belt, beer, gift cards, and cash will go to the winner. And proceeds of sales from the Cheese Steak Bowl and National Cheese Steak Day, which is on the 24th, will benefit Luciano's Light Foundation. And potential contestants can register at delcostakes.com. How many could you sock away, Case? Oh, just one. Yeah, one, and I would struggle to finish it. I mean, especially even in like 10 minutes time. But, you know, I'm not like a fast eater. I am a grazer, right? So I can eat a lot faster.
throughout the course of the day, but like in one sitting, I'm not all that great. But I've been to Marple Public House a bunch of times, and I know the owners and Delco Steaks, like,
But unfortunately, I can't make it to this thing. My son has rugby and then I got to coach volleyball afterwards. So I'm not going to be able to make it to the event. Bummer. You are a greaser, though. And sometimes if you get up from the table and then come back and your last bite is gone, it makes you a little upset. Oh, stop it. What happened? No. Remember, we were at the boxer and then my daughter called. We were having dinner last Thursday night. He was thinking about his last bite and he got back and it was gone. I didn't know that. Yeah. So here. Let me let me lay this out.
We're eating. Casey gets called. He leaves. Gone for a while. You were gone for a while. I was gone for like 20 minutes. And everybody had finished and all the food just looked like... It looked like everybody was done. Everything's done. Yeah. I mean, I looked at his... It looked like he just ate whatever you had...
Whatever you had and you were like, oh, I don't want the fries. And by the way... There were fries still on your plate. Yeah, you quit cleaning your plate a while back. Like, you eat less now. And I just... Yeah, we assumed... I thought you were going to be real. There was literally like one... So when one of the waitress comes to take stuff away... Yeah. And we all said, yeah, we're done. And we started handing plates. And in all of your defenses, there was literally one bite of my cheeseburger left and then some fries or whatever. So it really wasn't that big of a deal. But...
I was expecting it to be there. I was expecting that last bite to be there. Oh, my cheeseburger, I miss you. And trust me, I know. Deny. The punch of the ball. Sorry about that. Do you want me to say it?
No, it's okay. No, it's a guy's name. You know, Dick Punch. Yeah, sure. It's also a delicious holiday treat. But when you don't get that last bite of what you're really looking forward to, it sucks. I watch you because you make your lunch every day. Oh, yeah. And I've watched because I know what your last bite is.
It's the egg. Oh, of the salad, yeah. Of the salad. He has a hard-boiled egg in there, and the hard-boiled egg fell out onto the floor. And you were like, I mean, I don't care. At first, I went like, damn it, that's the best part. And I reached out and picked it up and ate it anyway. When you've been waiting, man, it does not matter. All right. Wait, can I make a correction? Yes.
So Farmer John is not the educational kids farm in Doylestown. That's Farmer John. Oh, you misheard me. John. Yes. Farmer John. Yes, so my mistake. That's all right. Information you can use. We will now play a clip that has to do with either food or drink and let's see if you can identify the movie. Here we go. Spartans, ready your breakfast and eat hearty. For tonight, we dine in hell.
God, was he ever not yelling in that movie? When I left out was a part of a cheeseburger. Yeah, that motivated him enough to.
It all started because of a cheeseburger? You thought it was like the, you know, they took it to a certain passageway. No. All right, what movie is that from? You need to text the word ZOOM to 39333. Where is my cheeseburger? All right, order up.
Steve sent me this article. Casey, I'm very curious as to what you think about this. A decades-old restaurant in Cape May, New Jersey, has been named one of the most, quote, adorable small-town restaurants in the United States. Not only has the restaurant stayed open following multiple fires, but it also rebuilt and reopened after being damaged during Hurricane Sandy. It's in Cape May or Cape May County? It's in Cape May. Okay.
Are you going to try to guess or something? I'm just trying to think. Go for it. I think you probably could. No, there's a million restaurants out there. There's a lot of restaurants. And you're saying cute and adorable, so I feel like it's like a standalone. Maybe it's like, not Beach Creek. What is that called? It's not that. Everything's cute. Oh, wait a minute. Well, it's not Beach Creek. Wait, is it Oyster Creek? No. No, damn it. Is it George's? It is none other than the Lobster House. The house. Oh, all right. They had a fire?
Years ago. Yeah, in fact, I have the details here. They have a fish market there that my buddy Jeff, he's like, every time he's like, hey, let me know, pick me up some clams casino. I was like, so I eventually went to the fish market, got myself some clams casino. They were fantastic.
freaking amazing. They were so good. So you vouch for the legend. Yeah, but that was fish. And I've eaten in the restaurant as well. I would say, all right, I'm just going to say it.
That's my secret breakfast place. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's your secret breakfast place? Well, it's right next to it. Yeah, it's a small little hole in the wall. Casey and I went there. He took me there one morning. It was really good. It's a greasy spoon. You've been playing that close to the vest for a long time. I have. It's a luncheonette. So you sit at the counter. You sit at a counter. There are no tables. Just one counter. So if you are going to go there for breakfast...
Do not go with more than like four people. Yeah. Because sometimes it's tough, you know, sitting together. But and it's and it's really, really inexpensive. Right next to the lobster house. So the lobster house, I've been there and it's of a style. It's of an older style and it's an older clientele too, I think as well. And sometimes. How's your pudding? Sometimes you got to wait like two hours to get a table. Like it's like people flock. Wow. Would you call it totes adorbs? It.
No, I wouldn't call it totes adorbs. I think it's old school and cute. Okay. But they're saying it's super duper adorable. Now, one thing I do love about it, they serve the bread as an onion loaf and it's excellent. And you can buy those, by the way, at the fish market. And we've done that before. They're great. What's the publication that said this? This is AARP.
No, you know what? You know I like to eat the lobster house. So let me read a little bit further here and maybe it will note the source, Nick. Steve sent this to me and I printed it up. It was a couple of different, but that article came out of the Daily Mail. Okay, so, oh, out of the Daily Mail. Yeah. So the same family has been welcoming diners to lobster houses in Cape May for three generations. Oh, it was Love Food was the name of the publication, Nick. Okay.
Overlooking the New Jersey shore, the Dockside Diner has its own fleet of fishing boats and serves fresh catches throughout the year. So they catch their own food. Yep. It's worth a trip for the freshly shucked oysters and crab cakes alone, they say. Oh, shit. Lobster House founders Wally Laudeman and his...
entered the restaurant business in 1950s. This is my Mary Jane. That's what it says here. At the time, Wally had just finished serving in the Coast Guard while being a member of the Cold Spring Fish and Supply Company fishing operation. His daughter Donna said, my mother told me, my grandfather said to my dad, here are the keys to the restaurant.
do something with it. Wow. And he said, we didn't know anything about the restaurant business. That first year we had six booths with fake red leather seats, five or six tables on the counter that sat probably 12. The restaurant was originally named the Main Bar before it was damaged by fire in 1963 and then they rebuilt it as Lobster House. And then Nick, it caught on fire again in 2005. Oh, okay. But they managed to restore it and it's still one of the most popular spots in the area. Yeah.
The restaurant confirmed that all of its seafood is the freshest available, which often comes from their fleet of commercial boats. That sounds like the secret. It also allows customers use of one of its indoor or outdoor spaces for weddings and other social events. And other areas of the Lobster House customers can visit.
before going home, include its fish market, like Casey was saying, and the takeout shop as well. I don't dislike Lobster House at all. I think it's really good every time I've been there. I think it's a great meal, but it's a bit of a tourist trap in the best ways, and it's because it's so visible as you're driving right into Cape May. You can't miss it. The sign is huge, and that
turns me off only just because the crowds are so long the wait is so long yeah uh so i just personal preference i'd rather go to another restaurant in cape may i just end up not going there very often and there aren't many places down there that accept reservations um there's only today i don't think so i don't think so either that's the issue that you run into yeah okay you know if we want to go and sit down expeditiously right right you kind of have to eat like a um
Like a senior citizen to go for dinner at 4 o'clock. I think we went one year. We had like a Kenan's broadcast or something. You and I sat. Maybe Marissa came too. Maybe. We've been doing Kenan's for so many years. One of the years I ended up staying down in Cape May. And I'm pretty sure we went there for dinner. Hey, another breakfast place down there that I do not sleep on is Jersey Girl. It's in Wildwood. It's right by like Maury's Piers. But the only issue is it doesn't open for breakfast until maybe like 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning, which is late.
But man, solid. No reservations there either. When a new restaurant pops up and we'll be talking, they take reservations. You can actually reserve a table. Let's see if you know what movie this is from. Spartans!
We need a zoomer, if we could, please. So we can get an answer to that. You don't hear somebody calling. Can we just eat here? Yeah. All right. We have Nancy who we're going to go to now. Hi, Nancy. Good morning. Good morning. All right, Nancy. Do you know what movie that clip is from?
I sure hope it's 300. And you are correct. That is correct. Hang on, Nancy. Nancy, you won a $50 Acme Markets gift card. Hungry and in a hurry, Acme's flash grocery delivery or pickup gets you fresh groceries in 30 minutes or less. Fast, fresh, and right to your door, Acme Fresh Foods, local flavors. All right, we have another clip to play. What movie is this food clip from? Oh, this guy's famous. Go on, go on.
Ask him how he died. I don't want to talk about it. He choked on some chorizo. Let's see if you know what movie that is from. Text the word ZOOM to 39333. Order up.
All right, Cheesecake Factory is shaking things up. They're saying goodbye to 13 different menu items. They could say goodbye to like half their menu items. So I have never eaten in a Cheesecake Factory. I've had Cheesecake Factory food and I've enjoyed especially the cheesecake. But the one thing I hear is they have like a war and peace sized menu. Yep, it's big. It comes in a binder, Steve. Like a...
spiral binder and it's like you're flipping through a notebook. Wow. There's just tons and tons of stuff on there. So yeah, they're saying goodbye to some of the dishes. Listen to this one. The loaded mashed potato omelet. That sounds disgusting to me. The loaded mashed potatoes and eggs?
It's like potatoes and eggs. I know hash browns, but that texture, that mashed potatoes and... Okay, anyway. I guess I'm the only one. Are there other ways to prepare potatoes, Preston? Well, you can boil them, you can mash them, you can stick them in a stew. So also the bistro shrimp pasta is going away.
But if you're worried that their notoriously enormous menu is getting trimmed, you can stop there because around 20 new dishes and drinks are stepping in to replace the ones that they're getting rid of. So, you know, honestly, the reason I've never eaten within the walls of a cheesecake factory is because every time I've gone to one and I kind of gave up, there was always like a holding pattern of about 70 people. It's like going to the lobster house, Steve. Yeah, yeah. It's the same thing.
Yeah. And so the only time I've been is when we happen to be walking by and we're like, oh, there's no line. Yeah. Let's go. I will say, because I've also been there and had to wait in that line. It's always, they always tell you way longer than it actually is. It's like one of those places. Yeah. Because it is also...
so big in there. So you see, you know, people, you know, long line. Right. But, you know, if a few tables get up, you're, you know, you'll cut that down quickly. Man has chosen for a mashed potato omelet. New items include trendy social media inspired bites like Asian cucumber salad and fast food style favorites like the double smash burger.
The menu refreshes part of the chain strategy to stay ahead in the competitive dining scene, and so far it seems to be working for them. How many cheesecakes do they offer? Do they pitch a number like the Baskin Robbins flavors? How many? They're all like at the front in a case that you can see all. Oh, really? Okay. Like 30? They all look delicious. I don't love cheesecake, so I've never actually had a piece. Oh, my God. I love it. All right. Let's see if you know what movie this is from. Chorizo. Oh, you're.
Oh, this guy's famous. Go on, go on. Ask him how he died. I don't want to talk about it. He choked on some chorizo. All right, let's get a zoomer up, please. Hey, guys. Hey, can we get a zoomer up, please? Thank you. All right. We are going to go to Adam now. Hey, Adam. Hey, you guys rock. Thank you, brother. All right. Can you name the movie, please?
Absolutely, that's Coco. Coco! Yay! You're correct. All right, Adam, here's what we have for you, bud. You get a $50 Acme Marcus gift card hungry and in a hurry. Acme's flash grocery delivery or pickup gets you fresh groceries in 30 minutes or less. Fast, fresh, and right to your door. Acme, fresh foods, local flavors. Here's another clip. What movie is this from? There's some elbow grease behind that stirrer. Nobody wants to eat any burnt tapioca. Does it smell like it's burning? Oh, I swear you got...
All right. If you know the answer, text word Zoom to 39333. Order up. By the way, I love tapioca. Do you really? Yeah, yeah. I mock it as an older person. It is good, though. I agree. All right. So one of the largest food truck festivals in America is back this April, and it will have the largest lineup of food trucks and vendors ever.
This is the Maniac Street Festival, spelled S-T-R-E-A-T. It's huge. We'll return to Main Street on Sunday, April 27th. So we're a month or so away from that. 70 plus food trucks and food vendors will be lining the main strip of the neighborhood tomorrow.
The most award-winning food trucks from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, and beyond will be firing up everything from Instagram-worthy food trends to classic to regional favorites. Everything from pizza, tacos, lobster, burgers, ravioli, dumplings, pickle, pound cake.
Corn on a stick, bacon on a stick, grilled cheese, wok bowls, and much more. I don't know that there's a food truck in Philly that's not there. Like, they have everyone. Well, and what's bizarrely interesting about the whole thing is that you have all those food trucks, but the restaurants on each side of the street do very well. Yeah, they do. Yeah. If you get people that want to sit down. There's also shopping vendors, local artists, and makers. Ooh. Man.
Maniac merchants, live music, and other fun surprises. This is turning me on. No, no. No. Two stages as well. It is not only the largest food truck festival in the Philly region, it's the largest food truck festival in the state of Pennsylvania and one of the largest one-day food truck festivals in the entire country. That's pretty amazing. So again, that is going to be on April 27th, and over 70 food trucks will be...
at the event so a heads up on that all right we're gonna play this clip again and let's see if you know what movie it is from some elbow grease behind that stern nobody wants to eat any burnt tapioca does it smell like it's burning oh i swear you got for grand girl all right we will now go to
You! Me! All right, we're going to go to Matt now. All right, Matt, you are joining us via Zoom. Hey, man. Morning, everybody. Good morning, buddy. All right, any idea what movie that's from? Double.
Double Jeopardy. Double Jeopardy is correct, yes. We got a winner. And Matt, you won yourself a $50 Acme Marcus gift card. If you're hungry and in a hurry, Acme's flash grocery delivery or pickup gets you fresh groceries in 30 minutes or less. It's fast, fresh, and right to your door. Acme Fresh Foods, local flavors. All right, we'll do another one and see if you can pick what movie this is from. Yeah, Gordon, I was just wondering if you could bring me something. Anything.
Anything, Your Majesty? I've never had anybody bring me something before. I just wanted to try it out. Sesame. Perhaps an assortment of fine chocolates. Got any Milk Duds? All right, let's see if you know what movie that one is from. And... Order up. ♪
All right, I got two stories here for you, and they concern the two big soda makers. Coca-Cola Company is launching a vodka-based version of the Minute Maid Lemonade and Pink Lemonade. What? As beverage giants look to make a splash into the canned cocktail sector. Yeah, Lipton already has a hard iced tea. That's a good one.
That's right. Lipton offers an alcoholic beverage, huh? So the drinks to be released through Coke's alcohol subsidiary Red Tree Beverages have 5% alcohol by volume. They do not contain carbonation, though. They come in flavors including classic lemonade and pink lemonade. The brand is also launching a line of Minute Maid spiked vodka punch with flavors like citrus, berry, and tropical punch.
The subsidiaries move into Spike Lemonade comes as the food and beverage giants look to expand into the RTD space, which I don't know what RTD means. It's a cousin of R2-D2? It has to do with, oh, Red Tree Beverages. Oh, there you go. By leveraging well-known brand names. So Kraft Heinz earlier this month,
entered the alcohol sector for the first time with the release of a crystal light vodka refresher. There's a lot of booze out there. Yeah. Well, because this is what all the younger people... Is this the big trend? Well, that's what they're drinking. They're all drinking the seltzers. Yeah. So everybody wants to get on. When you have teenage drinking parties at your house...
No, but like young 20s, that's what they're drinking. Yeah. Yeah, so they're trying this stuff out. These are not carbonated, though, so they're a little bit different than the seltzers, but they're canned and they're alcohol and they're not beer. Well, that's what the stateside spiked teas or whatever they call them, they're not carbonated either, and they're great. All right, I was wrong. It's not Red Tree Beverages because R-T-D. Red Tree Beverages. Right.
No, it's actually, Marissa brought this in, ready to drink. Oh. Canned cocktails. We were way off on that. Yeah. So the vodka cocktails expand on the debut of wine-based Minute Maid spiked last year, which includes flavors Strawberry Daiquiri and Blue Hawaiian. The soda giant also sells Simply Spiked Lemonade canned RTDs, which are malt-based cocktails.
and lightly carbonated. I wonder how much of their business model they plan on making this stuff. Yeah. I mean, you know, I don't know. How well is soda, just regular soda, selling these days? Don't know. Coke's foray into alcohol includes partnerships with Brown Forman on Jack Daniels and Coca-Cola and Constellation Brands on Fresca Mixed.
How about Yoo Hooch? Yoo Hooch. In Italy, they had some vodka to Yoo Hoo. They had RTD Jack and Cokes. Really? Yeah. Okay. Now, Pepsi, on the other side of the soda world, is buying Poppy, the prebiotic soda sued last year for allegedly deceitful marketing. PepsiCo announced on Monday that it has entered into an agreement to purchase Poppy for $1.9 billion.
billion dollar. Super popular. Is this the one that's supposed to be good for your digestive health? Correct. Probiotic. Why were they sued? Or what was the...
The misleading. So essentially, and I'll skim down a little bit further into this. So they purchased, Kathy, essentially they were saying that there was not enough probiotic in there to really make a difference. Got it. You would have to drink. So it says one can of soda reportedly contained five or less grams of sugar and 35% or less calories. Hang on, where's the part...
In the article, hang on, I have to skip around a bit here. The probiotic is the hardest part. What's that? The probiotic is the hardest part. The probiotic is the hardest part? It was waiting. I thought the waiting was the hardest part. Yeah, he had to do it.
Yeah, Kathy, essentially they were saying there wasn't enough in there to really make much of a difference, so they were sued for that. So, yeah, I mean, it was true, though, that it was in there. Yeah. Well, yeah. Okay, so here you go. It says the class action lawsuit alleges that one can of poppy contains only two grams of prebiotic fiber, which means a consumer would need to drink more than four in a day to realize any potential health benefits. Oh, right. Okay. If a consumer were to drink this many sodas, the suit states...
Poppy's high sugar content would offset most, if not all, of the reported gut health benefits. But Pepsi is buying this for $1.95 billion. And by the way, they are a Shark Tank discovery. Well, so I was just going to say, I love when smaller companies like this, like if they started out at Shark Tank or I immediately think of La Cologne, right? He built that coffee business up and then sold it to Chobani for like $1.
billions of dollars. It's huge. I don't know. Whether it's luck, hard work, a combination of both when smaller companies like this happens to them. You should do Shark Tank with the category amount of jewelry. There's a lot of luck in there. Good for them. I agree. We will see if you know what movie this is from. Gordon, I was just wondering if you could bring me something. Anything.
Anything, Your Majesty? I've never had anybody bring me something before. I just wanted to try it out. Sesame. Perhaps an assortment of fine chocolates. Got any milk duds? All right, we're going to go to Paul joining us via Zoom. Hey, Paul, how you doing, man? Hey.
You're not black. You're not black. What movie is it from, sir? It's King Ralph. King Ralph is correct, yeah. Hang on just a second, bud. Here's what we have for you. You got yourself a $50 Acme Markets gift card. If you're hungry and in a hurry, Acme's Flash Grocery Delivery or Pick Up gets you fresh...
groceries in 30 minutes or less. It's fast, fresh, and right to your door. Acme Fresh Foods, local flavors. By the way, King Ralph, a guilty pleasure of mine. It is. I actually like that movie a lot. It's a fun movie. I thought it was sweet. Of course, it starts with a brutal occurrence where everyone is, oh, the monarchy's electrocuted to death. No.
And that's how he ends up being king. Steve, I was curious when you said our soda sales declining. And so I was trying to do a little research and anything that I find out, I don't know how credible these sites are, is that they're not declining, which is surprising to me considering people are a lot more health conscious now and how unhealthy soda is. But it says it's not declining.
All right, one last clip to play, and here it is. What you did in our bathroom last night was disgusting. Molly nearly passed out. I know, I know. Believe me, I'm never eating buffalo wings again. I don't care how much I love them. I'm off them. All right, if you know what that is, text the word ZOOM right now, and we'll send you the link, and we'll see if you can get on to take a stab at it. All right, order up. Final, final order up. All right.
So for a lot of college basketball fans, March Madness can be a roller coaster and most will have to face the reality of a busted bracket. My son lost yesterday. The first day of the tournament, he had Louisville in his final four. Yeah, Louisville lost to Creighton yesterday. He was like, well, I'm out.
So to soften the blow, P.F. Chang's is stepping in with free chicken or veggie lettuce wraps for anyone who brings in their shattered predictions. No kidding. So your son can do this. All right.
um so from today to april 7th fans can score this consolation prize with any entree purchase uh while a freebie won't fix your bracket at least it'll make it taste a little bit better and you can check out the specific at pf chang's.com slash offers slash busted dash bracket that's a great promotion that is it's a good idea we uh while we're waiting for our uh um
of the movie. We ate at P.F. Chang's while we were on our delay for the flight. Enjoyed it? Yeah, of course. That's one of my... We don't go there often, but when I do, I always have a good meal. But it started off as... P.F. Chang's started off as like a really hip San Francisco restaurant. Yeah.
And it was very, very popular. Celebrities went to it and everything. And that was, you know, ages ago, probably the 1970s or something like that. We were reading the history of it while we were there. I'm sorry, President. We had a lot of time to kill in the airport. So we're like, well, we might as well do a deep dive on the history of P.M. Chang's. They have it right there at the table? Yeah. And then we're like, all right, well, I did the history of the horses out front. You know, let's pass the time on the history of this restaurant. What art?
what is the history of the horses? Well, I'll tell you, there's a whole backstory, Kathy. There's an article that was written about them and one of the restaurants and I think it was LA or one of the early expansion sites thought that it brought good luck. So they put the horses out there and then the franchise continued to have success. So they put the horses in all the franchises. And they serve horse meat. It was a nod to the Forbidden City. Yeah. Nick, yep.
I don't go to P.F. Chang's all that often, but I don't mind it. Like, I could see how that's how it started out. There's still a little bit of that, you know, in the restaurant. The last time I went was in the airport in Denver, not Denver, Detroit. And I just wanted the lettuce wraps, man. And they didn't have them. And that's all I went there for. I have a quick P.F. Chang story. I was at the one in Collegeville one time, and our server was out of this world. He was fantastic.
And I got done and I went over to the manager. I'm like, you need to have this guy train other servers. I'm like, that is exactly what you want as an employer. And I'm like, what can I do? They said, well, here's what you can do. You can go on our website and you can email management and let them know what a great job this guy did. And I did. That's cool. And so like a year or two later, I ran into him at a different restaurant. He had moved on to something else.
And he paid for our meal that night. Really? Because he got word back on the nice things we had to say about him. I didn't have the courage to tell you the first time, but you're my father. What? But, I mean, it's just a...
If you get exemplary service, let them know. Not just that person, but let management know because it really, you know, it can encourage them to create more of that type of environment. It'll make the ripple effect occur, which is wonderful. And if you're inclined to complain to a manager when you're not getting good service, try to equal it out. I agree 100%. All right, here's that clip again. Let's see if we can get somebody to identify it. What you did in our bathroom last night was disgusting.
Molly nearly passed out. I know, I know. Believe me, I'm never eating buffalo wings again. I don't care how much I love them. I'm awesome. All right, we go to Denise via Zoom. Hi, Denise. Hi, Denise. Hi, there we go. We're on a bit of a delay. All right, Denise, what movie is that from, please? I think we lost her.

By the way, the movie is You, Me, and Dupree. Alright, Denise won a $50 Acme Markets gift card.

Hi, I'm Steven Singer. Yep, that's me, the I hate Steven Singer guy. Why do other jewelers hate me? I'm a nice guy.

Thanks, Kath. Before we do the Froggy Friday song and get into the B-File real quick, our intern Colin has a cool thing coming up and he wanted to mention it. So I'd like to welcome him to our microphone this morning. Hey, man. All right. So what do you have going on? So me and my friends at school, we co-wrote and co-directed a short film. It's titled Remembrance.
It'll be showing tomorrow at the Greater Lehigh Valley Filmmaker Festival in Bethlehem, PA. That's awesome. It'll be at the Steel Stacks in the Art Quest Theater. The Stacks is a cool place. Yeah, it's very cool. I've been there one other time. Where do you go to school, by the way?
Kutztown University. Kutztown, okay. All right, so they're showing a bunch, is it like a festival? Yes, so it is a festival for a bunch of filmmakers all around the area. We entered into like 30 other ones that we probably won't find out until the other ones later. This is the first one that you've been accepted to?
Yes. Very cool. Well, congratulations. That's awesome. Thank you. Yeah, we're very proud of it. Our crew and cast have been amazing, and our families have been very supportive. What's the movie? Let me just give a little quick synopsis. Yeah, so it's a group of friends, and they throw a party. They have some issues in the friend group, you know. And the one friend drives home drunk, gets into a car accident, and a bunch of stuff unravels.
after the funeral and they all start turning on each other as blaming each other as why, why it happened. Wow. Okay. Sounds pretty intense. Yes. All right. So when is yours? Uh, when, when is this again? When, when can we see your film? Uh, it will be tomorrow. Our film will be at seven o'clock. Okay. Block three. You can get your tickets at steel stacks.org slash events. Okay. And, uh,
I would imagine there's going to be a lot of great movies to see while you're there. Yes, there will be. And will there be an award? Is this like a competition as well? Yes, it is a competition as well. All right. Well, give us a follow-up. I will. And we wish you luck, man. Thank you so much. All right. Intern College. Yay!
Great kid. Does a great job. All right. We got to do our Friday song. By the way, I texted Brooke from the band Froggy. Yes. Because there's this really cool thing that happens when we play this song with our YouTube community. Yes. And I wanted her to see it. So she's watching on YouTube right now. She's watching the stream. So let's officially welcome in Friday. Here we go. Let's go.
WMMR presents Preston and Steve's Design Fire.
Alright, it's brought to you by Helium Comedy Club, bringing Philly the best comics of today and tomorrow live every week. Tickets and line up at HeliumComedy.com. We're going to keep this kind of short today because we've got some guests coming up right away. But I'll get you some good stories. We're going to start with this. A friend of mine, Damien, sent me this story. He's from South Africa originally. And he said that this happened like right around where his parents are from. A woman was mauled to death by a lion in a hospital.
As she was having sex with her boyfriend outside in Zimbabwe. Wow. Sherry...
Shirai Mawera died after the big cat pounced while she was enjoying a romantic moment in the bush with her unnamed partner. In the bush. The predator attacked the couple at a secluded spot in the bush near the northern town of Kariba. And Miss Mawera's boyfriend, who has not been identified, is believed to have jumped up and fled in the nude when the lion lunged forward. It's dangerous, man. A source said that the young woman died at the scene. Uh,
and the terrified man managed to raise the alarm. Local police and armed rangers rushed to the scene. The source said cops and officers attended the scene and fired a single shot before getting to the spot. The woman had already been killed, and she had bloody bruises all over her body, a source said. Her neck had been mauled.
Rangers launched a hunt for the lion amid concerns the same animal may have killed a local man who disappeared over the weekend. Once you start killing people, you got to, you know. Yeah, you got to take them out. Police believe the man who was mauled by a lion was walking home that night from a nightclub. Nothing, it's like the worst boner killer you could have. I mean, come on. Yeah. You know, you're there having a good time. We had a great time, but a lion ain't my partner. All right, how about this? For 22 years, Frank Tavares...
was successfully able to live as a nun in the Dominican Republic. Known as the Nun Man. The Nun Man. I love that name. Nun Man. The Nun Man. Taveras says that he was placed in the care of nuns at the age of four after his parents passed away in a car accident. Do you think I can really convince them I'm a nun? Listen to this. As a young boy, Taveras' genitals were so small
that even he had trouble finding them. And he was raised as a girl at the convent. During the club. And it wasn't until the age of seven that his genitals finally had a growth spurt and he realized that he was a boy. But he continued to live as a girl to avoid being cast out. He said...
Everything in his power to conceal his true gender identity. He was known as Sister Margarita. Ah, Kathy. Tavares says that that should be Kathy's name. It's my favorite name. Sister Margarita. Sister Margarita. And she doesn't have salt on her head.
Taveras says that he never bathed in front of the other ladies and even wore boxer-style panties, would fake his periods, and wore oversized dresses. My mission is a little bit different than this Mr. Margarita. Over two decades later, Taveras' cover was blown and he was forced to leave the convent and start living like a man. It's also worth noting that during his time as a nun, he managed to get one novice nun pregnant.
pregnant. Oh boy. Today at the age of 73, he works as a tailor using the seamstress skills that he learned as a nun. Alright, and then...
One more? One more. All right. One. I want to end with this one simply because of a name here. Got you. A Key West man is now the subject of a federal investigation after officers found a pipe bomb and a cache of weapons at his home. They said it all started with a traffic stop. So officers pulled over 39-year-old Vincent Vega. Vincent Vega.
Vincent Vega. Yep, same as John Travolta's character in Pulp Fiction, driving 69 miles an hour in a 30 mile an hour zone. During the traffic stop, officers observed a loaded, short-barreled AR-15 rifle in plain view in Vega's vehicle. The rifle, with a 7.5 inch barrel, is classified as federally regulated firearm requiring proper registration. Was he driving a Vega? No, he wasn't driving a Vega. But Vincent admitted to modifying... Vincent! Modifying the weapon...
And did not possess the necessary tax stamp for legal ownership. Vega, who exhibited signs of alcohol consumption, was arrested on charges of possession of an unregistered short-barreled rifle and open carrying a firearm. So he was searched at his home and revealed he had 20 guns, 10,000 rounds of ammunition, a PVC pipe bomb with a red fuse, multiple electronic storage devices, Faraday bags and external hard drives, an explosive investigation guide
book and chemical materials and tools consistent with manufacturing explosives. The bomb squad came and cleared the home and evacuated the area. Further investigation revealed additional items consistent with explosive manufacturing like potassium chlorate, aluminum shavings, and detailed diagrams of Key West's
pump stations. So this dude was... That's something evil in mind. Yet, on the other side, he was selling Girl Scout cookies. How about that? That's kind of sweet. I don't know! Stop bothering me! Vincent was being held in Key West jail facility. His bond was set at $1.7 million. Vincent!
And that is what I have in the bizarre file for you. All right, we're going to take a break. We're probably going to come right back again because we have a guest who is scheduled to join us one minute ago. And when we get back, we will have Landon Dickerson of the Philadelphia Eagles on the show. So stay with us. We'll be right back.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. Thank you very much, Kathy. So we're going to do a one-two punch in this particular segment. We have a guest who is in our studio, and then we have a guest who is joining us via Zoom. And our guest needs to turn his camera the other way because he is sideways as we speak. There we go. We're straightening out things.
Thank you. First, our in-studio guests we would like to welcome. Mr. Steve DeLong, who is here. Nice to see you, everybody. Nice to see you, Steve. And there's an event coming up, and it is a fundraiser for Eagles Autism Team Bradley. And we'll get to the specifics on that, which Steve is going to explain. But also joining us via Zoom right now, and he is from your World Champion, or your Championship Eagles, ladies and gentlemen, Landon Dickerson. Thank you.
Good morning, everybody. How you doing, Landon? I am good. I'm also technologically not good. So my camera's messed up. I don't know how to work this. It's all good. You're the right way now, technically challenged or not. It doesn't matter. You look like you're in a locker room right now. Where are you? I'm in the locker room.
I'm in our locker room at the moment. Oh, you're at the link right now? No, not at the link. At NovaCare. Oh, at NovaCare. Yeah, of course. I guess, do you have a lift later on today? Like, what's going on? I mean, I love the fact that you're at work right now.
Yeah, I mean, you know, kind of short, take a little quick vacation after the Super Bowl parade and all that stuff. And then it's it's back to work. So, wow. Yeah, I am. I've been following Lane Johnson. He's been he's been working out quite a bit as well. But he's got a gym at his house, does he not? He does. He has a very nice one at his house.
I feel like I need to go there and work out with him. I saw Casey chatting with you, Landon. Was he putting the moves on to invite you to like a summer barbecue? He does that a lot. Yes, I'm still waiting for that. All right, all right. I read that you had to have some sort of knee surgery, I guess not too serious. Did you already have it? Yes, I already had it. It was right after the...
I guess right after the parade. So got that fixed up and then back here kind of doing rehab and, you know, getting ready for next year. Nice. I love your you're you're you're wearing a T-shirt right now that says Moe that John. And the thing that I love when you when you signed your contract extension, the first thing you went out and bought was a was a riding lawnmower. Yeah. Moir and sons. How excited were you to get on that gravely?
I mean, honestly, it's one of those questions I really didn't. I guess I should have thought about it because that gets asked every time somebody signs a contract. And it was honestly just at the top of my head because right around the end of March this time, I think, is when I signed my contract. And that's when mowing season kind of starts. And I was like, yeah, I want a new mower. And luckily, I got it.
company, Paul B. Moyer and Sons. They hugged me up gravely. And yeah, after that, it's just been, you know, enjoying cutting grass and, you know,
longer to do it some people get it some people don't i don't i find it very therapeutic i will have people do it occasionally when i can't get to it but there's nothing more satisfying than getting your lines right and then now i don't know which one you have land but there's this badass one that has sort of a two lever system where you can like you go around the tree and you can go like right to the base of the tree is that what you have yeah so i have a zero turn so basically i mean
I can sit there at one place and I can throw one handle forward and back and spin at one place and just do circles. That's awesome. Do you ever do that just for fun, you know, like without even cutting any grass? I mean, when I first got it, I definitely did. If it's a little too fast or too quick, it'll actually tear up the grass. Okay, yeah. I've since only done it on my own.
Yeah, don't need to be doing donuts in your front yard. No, no, no. That's counterproductive. Well, listen, Landon, I also want to talk to Steve a little bit who's here in our studio. If you heard some chit-chat in the background, that is his son Bradley who is on the spectrum, on the autism spectrum, and whom this benefit is for. How old is he, by the way, Steve? Bradley's five. He's five years old. Okay, and when did you guys receive a diagnosis of autism?
It was in March of 2022, so about three years ago now. Okay, so he was very young and you noticed some communication or some behavior issues and had it checked out. Yeah, we had a really great SLP that noticed that he wasn't speaking and they also noticed a few of the kind of telltale signs of kids that are on the spectrum that age and suggested that we get them checked out and we took them to CHOP, one of the best places in the country. And we got the diagnosis and started all the things that parents that have kids that are neurodiverse need.
need to do. You know, I'm sorry, Preston, the Eagles organization and their commitment to the autism goal is amazing. And the way that they mobilize people, citizens to, you know, just you don't need a lot to get involved through the Eagles organization with the Autism Foundation. The stuff that they're doing, the way they implement it, the way they make it accessible and the way they make
everyone feel as if they have a voice is very impressive to see. It's got to be reassuring to you, Steve, to see that commitment. Absolutely. Yeah. I mean, the first event that we went to, um,
we just had a bit of a time with Bradley and he wasn't happy. It was a lot of crowd noise and a lot of stuff and he was very upset, but it was really reassuring to be in that, in that space, knowing that other parents are experiencing that same thing. And it was a safe place we could be. Yeah. So the event, I didn't mention this, so I need to make sure we, we, uh,
bang the drum on this is thursday next thursday march 27th it's at the daisy tavern that's in conchahok and starts at 6 p.m there's going to be silent auctions raffles autograph memorabilia uh landon you're going to be there for the event as well is that correct yes i will be do you have do you have any connection um directly to anyone with autism within your family or is this you just wanted to help out because it's a cause that's near and dear to you
Yeah, so I don't really have any immediate connections to autism, but ever since I got to Philadelphia, you know, right after getting drafted, having the Eagles Autism Challenge and participating in that and just seeing –
how great that event was for the community and getting people involved and raising, you know, awareness for autism and also acceptance for autism, because it's something that, you know, a lot of people in this country are going through right now and just letting people know that, you know, they're not alone in this situation and being able to help out with that. And it's honestly, it's really enjoyable getting to meet all these great families and kids and, you know, connecting with them and trying to help out.
Landon, I don't know if you've been to the Daisy Tavern or not yet. It's an awesome place. I've only been once. I went in the fall for the first time. And it's right in the old Lee Tire building in Conchahokan. It's a really cool spot. It's got some great outdoor places to sit as well. What kind of cuisine is in your wheelhouse? You're from Hickory, North Carolina. Are you a BBQ guy? What's your appetite?
I mean, so it's interesting right now. Like you mentioned, coming back from Hawaii, I've actually been on a big kind of like seafood poke sushi kick. Wow. So that's been a little bit of Thai food thrown in there, too. But I'm all over the place, whether it's, you know, pizza, barbecue, you know, really. I think during the season, chicken cutlet sandwiches were a big thing. So that's good stuff. Yep.
And yeah, I really, I enjoy, if it's good food, I'm going to enjoy it. Preston, the Daisy Tavern was on the Conchie restaurant list that I gave you. Oh, I got to get there. Yeah. Kathy made a list of spots that I haven't, you know, I'm like, I need some more restaurant suggestions. And so she gave me a great list that are in the Conchie area. So Daisy Tavern. Yeah, they're fairly new. And Nick's right. The outdoor area is really nice once the weather starts to get nice. And inside, like the decor, the vibe, all of it, it's really nice.
So, Steve and Landon, I've been to a couple of the Eagles Autism events. As I said, they motivate people to participate and start their own little chapters. Every one of them I've been to has like the most amazing raffles and baked goods. And I mean, they have all sorts of participation. I don't know if you're going to have any of the cheer squad there or the swoop. I'm sure it's usually. But whatever, if you have anything, if you're at any level an Eagles fan and you just want to do something nice...
uh this these events are really really well run yeah so that's coming up uh next thursday so steve you know i have a son who's on the spectrum and um it is very very manageable extremely manageable and when i see someone like yourself or other people whose whose kids are a little bit more into the throes of it some have not non-verbal and i look at
the fact that it's going to be a lifelong commitment for you and your wife. I'm getting choked up talking about this, but support is so important. It is so, you can't do this by yourself. Not at all. And, and so the fact that, that the Eagles have embraced the cause of, of helping people out with autism is absolutely incredible. How far down the road are you guys looking?
with with bradley i mean we're doing very well he's actually uh just graduated out of a program from a place called neuro abilities and his progress has been amazing and part of that is due to the fact that we got his diagnosis early and we were able to get him into just some programs to help him navigate school and life and just everyday things in general uh that teach him how to just
Be awesome. Right. And learn. You never want to be a Pollyanna about things with this. But we are seeing things that are substantive, that involve autism and things that can be done. Because listen...
You're talking about therapies and things like that? Therapies and things. And I'm almost reticent to say because some of these things, oh, wow, and then they just go off into the ether. Right. But we're seeing things now that people from all different medical realms and all different levels of expertise are saying, yeah, this looks like the way. So...
When you support events like this with, you know, Landon is going to be at and you support these events, it's good to know that traction's being made and substantive differences are just right around the corner. So it's all about funding. It's all about participation. It's all about awareness. Yeah, and that's why we participate and do this. And I work my butt off to make sure that this goes well. I'm lucky that the restaurants that I work for allow me to have these events. And I'm very thankful that
My friend Joey put me in touch with Landon to have him at the event. But yeah, it's important because CHOP and the Eagles Autism Foundation really fund a lot of this stuff to help people.
get your child into a place very young that can help them navigate the regular world because that's what it's really all about. Yeah. So Landon, you're obviously, you like lending your support to causes like this, which is great, very admirable and very appreciative. What do you like to do? When you're in the off season and you're not helping people out like Steve and his family, what are you doing? He mows the lawn. But besides mowing the lawn, what do you do? I don't know.
You hit it right on the head there. Growing grass and yard care probably takes precedence. Nothing super. I mean, I wish I had the time to go out there and have a nice golf course looking lawn, but I really don't have time to be cutting grass, you know, every day and doing that. But other than that, it's, you know, DIY projects around the house and working on it.
How are you? How's your DIY game? How is your capability with that? It really depends. There's some stuff that, you know, I know my limits, right? When it comes to doing small plumbing and electrical stuff, I'm good. Right now, we're in the middle. We completely gutted our basement and...
Coming in, understanding that one, that's got to go through, get permits for that. And then two, there's going to be inspections. I'm not I'm not licensed at all. So and that when it comes to doing some bigger stuff that I need to subcontract out and let the professionals do that. But other than that, when it comes to, you know, hanging chandeliers, redoing bathrooms, you know, outer rooms, bedrooms, that's, you know,
Yeah, really, it's the way I like to describe it is, you know, my wife, Brooke, she is the idea and design person. And she presents me with the nice Pinterest pictures and she says, make it look like this. And then I go, that's like the couple on on HGTV. Oh, yeah. You guys are like home hometown. Yeah. You guys are like Ben and Aaron Napier. I think their names are or no, no, Scott, not Ben. Yeah.
Also, you know, I read, Landon, that you're an Eagle Scout. So did you use your DIY skills? Because you have to do a service project. What was your service project at the end of your scoutness? Yes. So my service project was putting park benches basically along this walkway around a park, a bunch of baseball fields and stuff at a local park in Granite Falls, North Carolina. Cool.
So, yeah, that was my service project. It wasn't the most, you know, DIY intensive, but definitely a great thing to do, go out, help the community and, you know, really just put up some places for people to sit, watch, you know, Little League baseball games, you know,
Or just sit and relax. By the way, when you said he was an Eagle Scout, I thought you meant he was a scout for the Eagles. Maybe eventually, after you retire, you can scout for the Eagles. Dude, just play the game now. You can do that later. I was like, you are a multitasker. So...
Early on. That's what I thought. So listen, you're a professional football player. You make a good living. You could hire someone to do all the work at your house if you wanted to. But there's got to be something personally satisfying to you to do that stuff. Absolutely. I mean, it's just one of those things where...
I'm one of those people that like when you and I feel like most people might be this way. It's like when you do something yourself, you feel pride in it and you're like, yeah, I did that. Right. And it's it's coming in. And, you know, I did a lot of, you know, carpentry and like contracting work, even in high school, like people take classes for, you know, band, orchestra or whatever. I decided to go, you know, do the carpentry and construction.
It was just something that I had a background with. It's something I really enjoy doing. It's something that kind of keeps me active and doing stuff in the offseason versus just sitting on the couch and watching TV. Landon, I don't think that we've spoken with any players since the Super Bowl victory, which is about six weeks ago at this point. First of all, congratulations. Second of all, it was just a shellacking. As a fan, we're sitting there watching and in the first half, it's like, is it really this good? I know a lot of us are superstitious and
worried that maybe the Chiefs were going to have a comeback in the second half or whatever. That didn't happen. You guys dominated the whole game. What was it like for you guys at halftime? What was it like for you guys in the third quarter? Were you starting to feel good about stuff? Or when did it sink in and you're like, holy crap, we're going to win this thing?
I don't really think it's fed in until the, I think it was the second drive that Kenny Piggott was in where we went in to take the knees. And we all, I mean, it was very interesting because, you know, usually there's a point where people are like, oh, yeah, we got this. And for us, it was like halftime. We were just like, no, it's still 0-0. And then third quarter comes, it's like, no, it's still 0-0. Like, we're not winning this game at all right now.
And we just kind of kept that mindset from, you know, the start of the game to the very end of it. And I remember towards the end there, they started to pull guys. And I think I started yelling at our line coach, because you only dress so many guys, so you can only pull so many guys. So I told her, I was like, pull my kite and sit down, but I'm finishing this game. And then me and Jordan went out there and, you know, we were just like, we're going to finish this game no matter what. So even though that means just going out there and taking the knees, but
Listen, it was amazing, a blessing to the city. We're thrilled with how wonderful you guys are and you all appear to be great people. And, you know, any chance I can get to hear a player talk about the experience I do. And it seems that there's, Lyndon, sort of a split between you
the level of elation, like right at the end of the game or the parade. So the parade being another monumental thing, where do you stand on it? Where did you feel it's just not going to get better than this? I would probably say, I mean, there was, I kind of had moments at both and it was, you know, right after the Superbowl there, it's kind of,
You're still a little amped up and still a little tense from the game. And obviously there's a lot of like the trope, the presentation, all that stuff at the end. And then, you know, seeing my wife and my parents and stuff at the end of that, then going in and celebrating with the guys after the game is like probably two hours into celebrating their absence game in the locker room that I was like, this is one of the coolest things I've ever been a part of. And then, you know, you
you know, kind of stay up all night and everything. And then you come back here and then, and then I know we had that snow storm that delayed the parade. So, uh, you had like two days to sit at the house and kind of reflect. And you were like, man, it really goes fast. Yeah. Luckily the parade comes around and you're like, all right, we get to have fun again. And, uh, you know, those, those two moments were pretty big highlights in my life and probably the most exciting things that I've been able to be a part of. And, uh,
I don't really know if I have great words to describe the feelings that you get there. You dream about playing in the NFL, winning a Super Bowl, and then you get to accomplish it. Well, I'm sure the excitement of the victory all came flooding back on parade day when you had your picture taken with BirdBot. I'm sure that that was exciting. Do you even remember that? Oh, yeah. Okay.
Yeah, I remember. It may have been a little fuzzy, but I definitely... Nice. Well, so Landon's going to be available for you to meet at the Daisy Tavern. And it's, like I said, on Thursday. And it's this fundraiser for Team Bradley with Eagles Autism. And Steve, you guys are going to have some pretty cool merch there, right? Some stuff that people can bid on or purchase? Yeah, absolutely. We're going to have a couple of jerseys from Landon.
who is going to sign those. And then we're going to have some footballs from him as well. We actually had the EAF just send us a Dallas Goddard jersey. So we're going to have that. And then we have an autograph company that's coming and they have everything from basically signed things from gritty all the way up to like Brian Dawkins. Wow. A lot of cool stuff. And Landon, I just want you to know my son had a victory parade in our apartment at halftime. So that's what he did when the game was over. Okay.
Bradley, a big Eagles fan? He is becoming one right now. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, he likes the team a lot. That's fantastic. And so if people want to come and, you know, Landon, if they want to come and get a picture with you and everything, you're cool with that?
Yeah, come get a picture. Come say hi. You know, love to interact with fans, see people out. I know sometimes it's difficult when, you know, even when you come to games and stuff, the interaction is still, you know, people sitting in the stand, we're on the field. So being able to, you know, interact with people up close and personal, come take a picture, come say hi. You know, love to get to meet everybody and, you know,
you know, really see the community. What would be more manly than to go talk to a Super Bowl champion and talk lawnmowers? You know what? Actually, I was going to ask this. Landon, when you are post-career, do you think you might open a landscaping business or something like that? I mean, I've joked with my wife about doing that. It's like, and people ask me, it's like, what do you want to do when you retire? And I was like, I
I don't know, probably mow grass. Far as coffee. Who also went to Alabama. Wait a minute, I've cut that grass for free. I'm saying, I don't really need to charge for it, but it's one thing doing it on your own house because I sit there, I can take my time. It may take me three or four hours if I'm trying to be really particular, but yeah, you never know what the future holds, so we'll see.
I love this guy. I fucking love this guy. You are the best, Landon. Excellent. We will send people in the direction to hang out with you and help this great cause. It is at the Daisy Tavern in Conchahokan. It is next Thursday at 6 p.m.
p.m. and I guess it goes on until whenever right Steve till whenever the fun stops all right and you can go to the daisy tavern dot com and get the information lots of great memorabilia and auction items and just a good hang and as Kathy has said great food and a cool atmosphere I'll actually be there okay
They do these upright. They really do. If you've never been to one, they are top level. Yeah, I'm going as well. And Steve, we should mention Tim Williams' band is performing. Great musician. Absolutely. Tim's going to do that. He's donated his time. And just a lot of people have really helped us put on a great event for this. And it's going to be awesome. Yeah. That's excellent. All right. Well, thank you both for joining us. We really appreciate it. We wish you the best of luck. Landon, enjoy the rest of the offseason. And we'll catch up with you down the road. Okay, man? Absolutely.
Absolutely. Sounds good. Great to meet you. And Steve DeLong, thank you. We'll have the information up on PrestonAndSteve.com by the way for that. I would like to... Can I do a couple other things? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Real quick, I have a couple of shout-outs and then maybe...
I mean, we do have a little bit of time for tidy skits here. We could do like a real quick short junk drawer if you guys want. Sure. I got some stories. But real quick, some shout outs that have been requested. This one is from Gloria. She says, hey, I would like to give a big juicy shout out to the lovely YouTube community, especially YouTubers Sap and Craze Turtle.
for encouraging me to come and join the, oh, Zoomadelphia the other day. Yes. It was great. From all of us YouTube listeners, you changed our life with Zoom. Oh, wow. And that is from Gloria the Wisco Girl, a.k.a. Gloria the Wisconsin Transplant. Oh, there's a shard? There's a shard out. All right.
All right. And then here's one that says, hey, Presbo, first time emailer, long time listener. Would you send a shout out to my granddaughter, Lily, on her 14th birthday? And that is Friday, March 21st. We listen to the car on the way to school every morning. And I know she'd be thrilled. Sorry. This is from Diane. I'm sorry I didn't get this earlier, Diane. But here's a shout out for you. Hopefully somebody will reach out to you and let you know that we did that. Doesn't have Diane's last name. So,
If anybody knows a Diane in Jersey, let her know. May I recommend that if you've made a request of this nature, listen to the podcast? Yes. Because a lot of times, and we'll ask people to let you know, but you can't nail every request time. It's impossible. Yeah, we try to get them in when we can. So let me see if I have another one. No, we can, yeah, we can do a short chunk tour. Here's the chunk tour. Pressions clean it out of chunk tour. Getting things out of the chunk tour.
Finding stuff here in the junk drawer. All right, let me reach into the junk drawer and grab a story. All right, here's one. So I was talking in the weather forecast earlier about how windy it's going to be today. And Steve sent me this article about how windy it has been so far this year in Philadelphia. Extraordinarily windy. So it's not just you. The sustained winds in January, February, and so far March on average are...
The windiest month of the year in Philadelphia had been well above normal. The signature feature had been the gusty winds, not just that steady, but the really strong gust. Moving patio furniture. Yeah, exactly. Just yesterday, from over the weekend, I had, you know where the deck box is? Yep, yep. I had one too. It was flipped over. Mine was on the lawn. Completely flipped over. Yeah, so I had to turn that sucker around, but...
So as for the 50 mile per hour gusts measured by the official anemometer, I guess you say that at Philadelphia International Airport. They are usually they are unusual in any month. Only one year, 2011 in the last 20 has had as many gusts of that strength throughout an entire year. It's pretty wild, isn't it? So the atmosphere has been behaving unusually.
like itself, but only a little bit more intense than usual. As they have for several weeks, systems have been moving briskly with a procession of fronts, which form the boundaries of the warm and cold air or air of different pressures or weights.
And as the atmosphere attempts to maintain a pressure balance throughout the planet, the heavier air naturally moves toward that which is lighter and it generates the wind. So one of the most enjoyable things for me, I happen to like the wind a lot. I like a very windy day, a sunny, windy day. If you are out, the sound of the trees rustling in the wind is something I find very ASMR-ish. I don't want branches to fall and kill people. I don't want power lines. But I do like...
I do like a windy day. The wind can be nice, but as a golfer, I am anti-wind. It kills it for you. I'm very much anti-wind. So this being the winter battle, winter-spring battle season, the contrasts are more likely to occur in the temperatures, obviously, which creates this, and that's why we have a severe storm season. So not all the potential winds around here have been storm-related. Conditions have aligned frequently to favor strong winds aloft mixing down the surface. So...
Tornado! Even like, Steve, like when it's a nice looking day, like today, you know, there's no storm in sight at all, yet we've got 40, 50 mile an hour gusts of wind. Yeah. So this is another case of that. The winds, several thousand feet above the ground, all will be blowing in the same direction, and that will favor gusts at the surface, and they could become as high as, like I said, 45, 50 miles an hour. I gotta get a frigging kite. Oh.
Oh, man. So at the beach, we've got several kites. I love kites. They are fun. I've told you about it. I have like a sport kite. Yeah. Yes. It's a foil. Well, you can have it do... Yeah. You can do loops and have it go all the way down to the ground and shoot across sideways and stuff. Isn't that very zen? It is so much fun. I love that thing. So, yeah. And this is a banner year to get out and do that type of thing. So...
The pattern is apparently likely to continue with multiple cold air outbreaks combined with warm air surges. So it's not over. We're going to get more. Nothing's over. Windy days. It's windy. Come back from Vietnam. Everything's windy. Nothing is over. Baby killer, windy killer. If it continues. Who's walking down the street? Windy.
Wait, how does that go? Who's walking down the street to the planet? Everyone knows it's windy. And when he's got stormy eyes, it flashes the sound of lies. Rambo sings the hits of the 60s. Rambo sings the Fifth Dimension. Oh, my God. Thank you for coming today. Hey, Fifth Dimension fans out here. All right, let me grab another story from the junk drawer. All right.
Okay, so this is a list of things that will most likely send your pet to the vet. Oh.
Nationwide Pet Insurance is sharing their most common pet insurance claims. The 14th annual analysis comes from their database of more than 1 million insured pets. I don't know if our pets are insured or not. I got to find out about that. I'm in their will. I know that. Okay. Who's the executor, by the way? It is Mia, the oldest cat. Mia, the oldest cat. So here are the 10 health issues sending... I have dogs and cats separately. So the number one health issue that sends dogs to the vet
are skin allergies. Oh my gosh, wow. Yeah, and the cost within the first 30 days of diagnosis is $265 or a full year will run you $840. So if you have dogs like Puggles or anything where they have the folds in the skin or they've got, you know, like Sharp A's. Yeah, Sharp A's, you're forever cleaning that out because they're very prone to that kind of stuff. Yeah.
And we were talking about bulldogs this morning with ABC. The French bulldog is the top breed in the country. And they have on their face, they have all those folds and things as well. So number two on the list, diarrhea and intestinal upset.
The cost of the first 30 days of diagnosis averages around $702. So they're talking about the resultant medical response, but I mean, would we say diarrhea as a result of eating chocolate? Yeah, it has to be, because they're always eating things they shouldn't be. I told you, Kizzy put away from...
The biscuit lady. Yeah. Put away like an almost an entire box of biscuits. Each of those biscuits weighs like nine pounds. I mean, she socked them away. I don't know. My memory is terrible. It was either an email or maybe we talked about it on the air. I don't know. But the guy's dog that ate a pack of gum. Yeah. Oh, it was an email. It was an email. And I didn't read it on the air. Oh, all right. And so while you look for that press, something not similar. The same thing happened with us and Fozzie when he was a puppy. He got into a pack of gum.
And we called the vet because we were worried because the packet gum closed with magnets. And so we were worried about the magnets. So we called the vet and they were like, oh, you need to get him here now because of the xylitol in the gum. It could kill him. Well, that's it. It's the xylitol. Casey, sometimes it's listed as birch sugar or birch bark extract. And we got this email. This is from Michael Lewis.
whose dog almost died from this, and apparently it causes severe kidney problems. Like quickly, right? Yeah, so if your dog, if you find out they get into... Apparently the xylitol is most often found in chewing gums with the cooling and minty fresh effects, like polar ice and so on. It comes from that. Oh, boy. And so, yeah, it can kill your dog. And so it said that we were lucky as we figured out things quickly after she had eaten four times the lethal dose, 32 pieces of gum. Jeez. And it was...
Listen to this. $15,000 of care. But he says she's back to her amazing self. You'd go broke taking care of you. As you said earlier, they're family members. You love them dearly. And he says here, good time to mention pet insurance. It is. It's a good thing to have. Which is what this article is a result of. So, yeah. So be careful of the gum or maybe stay away from that type of gum if you're...
Pet is the one that can get into almost anything. And if you can, seek out an actual canine insurance salesman because they really know the issues better than a human does. All right. Then you have arthritis is number four. I'll just go through the top five, okay? Syphilis. And then, no, not syphilis. Number five is types of trauma.
Okay. That the dog might experience. The top 10 health issues sending cats to the vet. Wait, what is dog trauma? It's when you sniff another dog's ass and you have bad memories come flooding back. No, like an accident. Yeah, and hit by a car. You watch the end of Old Yeller. Oh, my God. That is traumatic. Marley and me. Watching that.
So trauma, you know what, I'll go through the top 10 just quickly. Dental disease, urinary tract infection. This is for cats? This is for dogs. Number eight is heart disease. Number nine is liver disease. And number 10 is kidney failure. For cats, number one, the number one issue sending them to the vet is the diarrhea and intestinal upset.
Followed by that are urinary tract disease, kidney failure. That's how my 22-year-old cat died eventually from a kidney failure. Remember when you got cat diarrhea inside your nose? Oh, geez.
It's an old family healing rest. I'll retell the story very quickly. If you have the flu, rub cat crap up your nose. I was petting my cat around his hindquarters and I didn't know it. He had crapped. He had diarrhea. I got it on my fingers. At that time, I had gone up. Either my nose was itching or whatever and I went to pinch my nose and I stuck my finger up in my nose.
And cat diarrhea was on my fingertip and it went in my nose. I went to the sink. I snorted water. I started blowing my nose and it wasn't all coming out. I'm like, I'm just taking a big hit of water off my nose. You're inhaling cat dirt. If you had had next to you on the TV stand...
A hand grenade. A gun. Would you have pulled the pin? I would have used it. All right. So then number two is urinary tract disease. Number three, kidney failure. Like I said, number four, dental disease. I've had so many cats that have no teeth. After a while, they are prone to dental issues.
And then if you get any pets that live old enough, arthritis is always a condition. Then you have hyperthyroidism. Yes. Inflammatory bowel disease. Diabetes is number eight. Then you have respiratory infection. And the final one, opposite of dogs, skin allergies is number 10. So I'll tell you something just quickly, Kathy, is that I have all these security cameras inside my house. And people think, wow, you must be crazy.
You really terrified of a break in? No, I have them specifically trained at different pieces of furniture so that if a cat has a urinary tract infection, so that I'm not taking eight separate cats to the vet. You know who it is. So I literally have a folder full of cat peeing on furniture videos.
So my cat that passed away years ago, we went through all this. He had the kidney, the urinary tract. He ended up with diabetes. I had to give him insulin. It was a whole thing. But I have two cats now. I'm worried about their teeth, Steve, and getting their teeth cleaned because the cat that passed-
did terrible with anesthesia. When he would wake up, I guess this is pretty common for cats, he would freak out. Well, he ended up breaking his tail because when he woke up, he was in a cage. He was at the vet and he freaked out in the cage, broke his tail, would then get diarrhea, walk through the house and leave a trail of diarrhea through the house. So I'm scared to take these cats, but I just saw my one cat and like,
He needs his teeth cleaned. They'll cause all sorts of issues. A proper vet and a proper...
Those who know what they're doing, and I can recommend them, they know the right way to bring the cat out of the anesthesia so that they don't hurt themselves. And we've had it happen a number of times and never had an issue like that. Yeah, I need somebody who's going to give them extra care because if that happens again, I'm going to... And once they know that, they'll go the extra mile. Yeah. Preston, how old was your old cat when... 22. Okay, yeah. So we had Emma who died at like 23 or 24. Have you guys ever had the experience where your cat just wanders off when they die? No.
No. They're all indoor cats. Out of the house? Well, when we were growing up, we had more outdoor cats. And two of them, at old age, when they were done, they were done. And I've heard that that's fairly common for outdoor cats. Did you ever find? No. Emma was just gone. Just gone. And it was just one of those things where like, it was her time. It was sad because we were kids and we didn't know what had happened. But I've told that story to friends and family and they've shared similar things with me. My brother's cat wandered off and then came back to die.
Back to the house? I didn't want you to miss this. Because you're responsible. It was one of those cats that you've never ever saw. It was always hiding under something. I'm not sure if we have a pet. But then it just disappeared for months and months and then came back and died on their back patio. These are the common issues. Now, real quick, I know Titus is here. I see him out in the green room. But real quick, one more story from the drunk drawer.
Before we take a break. All right. And Nick sent me this, and I thought this is cool. And it's for future radio brethren. Eastern University, local here, has launched Studio 1300, a 24-7 student-run radio station. I love this. Broadcasting from the St. David's campus and available to listeners everywhere.
And I love the fact that it's... There are other... Like, Monco has a radio station. It's great. And, you know, obviously, we've talked about... What's the one in Jersey? Rowan. At Rowan. Yeah, terrific radio station. So...
But this is a 24-7. It's going to be on live all the time. I love this. They're going to have overnighters working. That's the way it should be. So I was happy to hear this. Listeners can tune in directly to Live 365 by searching Studio 1300 or listening via Amazon Alexa. And Studio 1300 is a true variety station featuring student-created shows that reflect their interests and musical tastes.
in addition to live discussions on sports, pop culture, and faith-oriented topics. Eastern University is a Christian university. Right, right. The lineup will include programming such as blues shows, Sunday morning Christian music, a Saturday soundtrack as well feature, and faculty and alumni voices will also join the conversation on top of that, fostering engagement with the broader Eastern community. And aren't they doing the Satan Hour? I don't know if they're doing the Satan Hour. Death Metal Power Hour.
Or not. But I am the God of Hellfire. I am the God of Hellfire. And I bring you college radio. By the way, students personally curate the music. This is awesome. Which is great. I had a blast doing the college radio station when I was, you know, and you'd make every mistake. And by the way, they have the ability, Preston, to listen to us every day to learn what not to do. Exactly. Like play this song. The God of Hellfire.
And I bring you College Radio 24-7 For the little college students Everyone should listen
So it will be the students that are curating the music for their shows. And it offers, as they say, a human touch that stands in contrast with algorithm driven streaming services. Damn right. God damn. Sorry, I shouldn't say that. Yeah, you shouldn't say that. Put the people back into the programming, man. Yeah. I love it. So I was happy to hear that about Eastern University. All right. We got to close up the junk drawer.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. Thanks, Kath. Our next guest is in town to play at Helium Comedy Club shows tonight and tomorrow night. You can get tickets at heliumcomedy.com. And he's here in our studio once again. Christopher Tuck.
Thank you, people. Very much good to be here. By the way, I just saw the Eagles at the Sphere. Eagles. It's sweet. You know, you sound like you're stupid if you say, I saw Eagles at the Sphere. I saw Eagles at Sphere. Like, why not? I saw the Eagles at the Sphere. You're exactly right. Would you say, did you see Beatles on that song? Yes. Also, Killers are a good band, too. Like, what? Like, what? Like, can we just start speaking English? What happened? Can you imagine someone getting mad, though? It's Eagles, not the Eagles.
He goes like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. How was the sphere experience? You guys, I got to tell you, man, it wouldn't work for comedy because you would never pay attention to the comic. It's the most incredible experience. I've seen a lot of shows. I have never, ever experienced something like that. On a freaking phone, it looked amazing. I can only imagine what it's like in its real environment. I almost vomited. The picture I saw, the video I put up, I was like, huh?
And Joe Walsh is just the creepiest, funniest human being. My wife's like, every time Joe Walsh is good, they put him up on the dome or whatever, and she would just go, I can't look at him. But he was awesome. He was great. He was hilarious. Go see the Eagles at the Sphere, whatever. Go see anybody at the Sphere. Yeah, they added some more dates. He's one of those guys, and I'm sure in the industry you've seen them, who should have been dead 14 times over. Yeah, he says that. Yeah, right? And the legend was...
is that he would bring a chainsaw. Well, it did happen. He was gifted that. Yeah. And he would wreck hotel rooms with it. Hotel rooms. Yeah. That's really funny. Just take it to the next level. I like that Eagles or the Eagles have always been committed to rock and roll. So how are you guys doing in the country? How are you guys dealing with what's happening in the country? I don't want to talk politics, but I just want you to know something. I figured out money. I never understood wealth. I never understood wealth. Okay.
Except the richest guy in the world. Now, I've done okay in my life. I had a couple good years. At my best, I never had Jews will not replace us money.
This dude's got Zig Hyle money. How does Elon get Zig Hyle money? And then he just walked out of the building and no one said anything. That's rich. That's filthy rich. Yeah, and my house did not burn down in California, which is great. Wow. Got to the ridge. I saw the fire coming over the ridge. It was nice. How close would you say? I live in just a crappy enough neighborhood. I'm just off. Palisades, I'm just off.
Is that the rule? You buy the crappiest house in the best neighborhood? Yeah, that's what we did. It's just far enough away from where everything's horrible. And it was weird because we're having wildfires in January. That's pumpkin spice latte weather, man. What's happening? So what I did was, this is how white trash I am. So it's coming. The fire's burning for weeks or whatever. And it kept getting closer and then would go away. Like literally the planes were flying over my house to get to the fire.
Like the big DC-10s. So I went to Home Depot and I bought some lawn sprinklers and they are now duct taped to my roof. They were showing footage of a dude. A fireman did. If a fireman's duct taping sprinklers to his roof, I'm in. And it seems like such a no-brainer. Like if you have...
moisture-soaked plant life around your house, that's a natural barrier. So did you really implement a few stopgaps? I love the way you become a scientist. If you have moisture-soaked plant life around your house. And I'm like, I'm such an idiot. I wouldn't have that. But I mean, there was a story a couple years ago, because you have fires all the time. But Caitlyn Jenner had dug like a
Remember that? The storage came in. Don't remember that, but... Her home was like on top of a hill, high up enough, and she had the Army Corps of Engineers or somebody come in and dig a trench. Like a trench? Yeah, around... Who has the number for the Army Corps of Engineers, man? Are you on the Caitlyn Jenner newsletter? Like, why are you getting the updates? I was in the news.
That's awesome, man. Chris, my aunt and my cousin live in the Palisades. They both lost their homes, which was awful. Oh, I'm sorry. Sorry to be correct. Oh, now I feel like a douche. No, no, no, no.
Here's some wacky jokes where my house didn't burn down. No, no, no. So, yeah. So we lost a dog and a family. Sorry, man. Everybody was okay. The pets were okay. They even got out with their cars. It was crazy. But my cousin Alyssa brought up a point that I hadn't considered. And I wanted to get your take on this because there were some neighborhoods that were protected by private fire companies, right? And initially people kind of respond to that. It's like, oh, that's kind of ridiculous and privileged, which it is.
but it also preserved those neighborhoods. And I understand like the argument of like, listen, if you can afford it and you can bring in a fire, a private fire company to save attractive land, then you should do that. But that's the end of society. I know. That's where it's over. When you've got hats, some, some people get about, um,
The private fire company is watching my home continuously. They have a drone that just hovers over just in case a sparkle or an ember will touch the building. So at that point, we're on the ragged edge of getting the guillotine out and taking people out. You guys know that. When you have your own private fire company, it's you. What do you mean? I taped some sprinklers to my roof. Exactly. I was at Home Depot looking for Flex Seal to make sure they didn't fall off.
Yeah, and then I got hoses snaking off the roof. Yeah, my wife's like, you have to fix this. Because the hoses were just hanging off the roof. And so I had to go up and I had to organize them. And it's a pecking order, though. The guy who's living in the Whirlpool box on the corner, look at this guy. He's got flex tape money.
That's a valid point. It's a valid point. I just think we've lost our way. My new show is Doomed to Repeat. I wrote this show about, like, because I thought she was going to win, definitely, right? It was just going to be a quaint show about what happened. There's a bit about, you know, there's a bit about, like, the history and stuff. Because my family has been in the country, so I found out. I did a DNA test. Sorry, I didn't have to do it anyway because there's no...
A giant. Yeah, there's no waitress showed up with a baby with a giant head and Gary Busey teeth. That didn't happen. Shut up. It shouldn't be that funny. It shouldn't be that funny. And there's no blood spatter. My wife gave me a DNA test for Christmas, which I find aggressively suspicious. Like, what do you need to know? But I found out my family's been here since 1635. Wow.
Yeah, I'm OG American. And in all those years, we own nothing. Absolutely nothing. There's no land. The Pirates just showed up here when you could just pick up gold off the streets and we were like, I got a bottle of wine and these native people are sexy as hell. We were just passed out in the bushes. You know, just
To that point, what is it? Was it 23andMe or which one just sold all of their... 23andMe. 23andMe just gone out of business, sold all of that DNA data to Elon Musk. Elon Musk. I don't know. By the way, that's the thing. Have you guys done DNA tests? Yeah. Why? I know. Why?
Why? Curiosity. No, but how do we learn from all these dystopian sci-fi movies where some horrible government takes everybody's DNA to find out who the good people are and who the, you know. You know what overshadows is, oh, that might be fun. That overshadows the, hey, they're going to take over our life for some reason. We look at it and go, oh, that's kind of fun. Let's do that. I love the staunch, I'm not having monitoring devices in my home.
And the truth about everything. While he's on his phone. No one's going to follow me. My brother was in the Secret Service for many years and protected presence and so on and so forth. Years ago, they could take a regular landline and turn it into a listening device. Yes. No problem. They can watch you if they want to through your computer. That's a real thing.
No, they can. The camera and your computer. They can actually get through your computer, turn your camera on, and watch you if they want to. And later I thought, God, man, they've seen some horrible, horrible. They've seen me in some weird. Yeah, exactly. There's been some times in hotel rooms where you shouldn't just turn the camera off. Is that Gary Busey? Stop it! It's time for the Titus Only Fans page. Yeah, I didn't even know. Why am I
getting these checks. I'm getting random checks. And why is the CIA taking a percentage? What is happening? Oh my goodness. That's hilarious. Oh my goodness. That's hilarious. You know, there was a... Speaking of that, there was that spate of emails going out and it shows you how...
perverted we are as a society, it would end up in your email and say, we have hacked your camera and we've watched you surfing porn sites. And they had the video and they're ready to extort you, right? Did this happen? Was this a real thing? This was recently, yeah. And of course I knew it was junk because I only go to, you know,
You're telling us way too much about you, man. I've never been to, what is it, Porn Hub? No. Hub, I don't know. Hub. Porn Mall? Porn Mall, is that what it is? Something. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. The latest scam around here, Titus, has been for toll violations. You get these texts. Yes. Like, almost daily. It's like, you have missed X amount of tolls and you need to pay us, blah, blah, blah, this and that. And you click on the link and...
Boom, they have your information right away. Yeah, I don't click on anything. I don't even talk to friends anymore. I'm like, you know. Completely cut off from society. I think the carrier pigeon is coming back is all I'm saying. I'll send you a message. I didn't get a text. No, a pigeon showed up with a thing on his leg from Titus. And we talk about this all the time again with the contagion of social media and how acrimonious it can be and how...
life-sucking it can be. Are you somebody who pops on? What's your usage? You know, man, I am an evil human being at times, as you know. Sometimes if the wrong thing happens, he knows, I will uncork on a way. I think it's a good and bad thing. I also try to be positive with it at times also. Listen, you've watched enough of my stuff where you're like, okay, sometimes I'm good, sometimes I'm very bad. Anger can fuel great comedy. Yeah.
And aren't. Not in my case, but yes. I agree. I disagree. I think that sometimes when you get pent up about something, it'll force creativity to work its way into your brain and then out of your mouth. It follows me on threads. Yeah. Sometimes I am... Chris, you're so rapid fire though. When we're conversing, when you are typing something out,
Do you let it sit for a minute or is it bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, sit? Let it sit. You think it through? Yeah. Come on. If thinking through got me, not thinking through got me here. I'm on one of the best radio shows in the country. I don't think anything through. Now, are there consequences?
Yes. Yes, there are. I think I might be on my second divorce coming up. Consequences? Might, might, might. Might. We're in this weird, unfocused area right now. Seriously? I'm sorry. I'm kidding. You never know. I mean, how many has Gary Busey been through? Damn it, I've
What kind of evil words? It'll never go away. I know, but you know what it is as you get to be... You have a certain age and everything. I found this. Is that, you know... You do wait a second before you... You think in...
Some people don't ever lose the angry young man thing. Would you classify yourself as that? I would say this. I know I'm right now. As I got older, I realized I know I'm right. I know how the world works now. And so I have even less time now. I don't even think it through for a second.
Sometimes they don't fix misspellings. That's how sure I am. You know what I found, though? I found over the past years, I've been more inclined to listen and to get things that I would not have thought of and realize, embrace my being wrong. Oh, I know when I'm wrong. And listen to people who I always said, no, don't listen to that. And not even in a political realm or just whatever, but I'm like...
Step back and go, well, what do you got? All right, here's what I got. I don't have that. I used to take on every idiot that would come at me. I used to take on every psychopath. And I would just fact them. And I realized at one point I'm writing, I'm literally writing a debate with a moron with two followers. Right. Like it's not even a guy. It's not even. And so now I did block him.
block, like if you go to my block list, it is everybody. It is just everybody. I think I have five people I like and that's it. But so I'm just, you know, when you get older, I don't know, I don't have time for the idiots. I'll tell you this though, you enjoy it. And as Nick said, it generates great comedy.
So in that, I mean, so you're going to have an aneurysm at some point, but you're going to be a happy man. You know what I'm saying? Yes. As I go out, as my brain shuts down, I'll be like, that was worth it. Arguing with douchebag 321. I think so.
I think we do have time for it. It's where you choose to spend your time, right? And so if you're going to spend your time creatively elsewhere, instead of having a meaningless and pointless debate with somebody who you're never going to convince anyway. Never. He's not going to buy it. Then why bother? Yeah, exactly. Right. I will say this. The new show, Doomed to Repeat, I do take on... I have a tendency when I do see things... Carlin and Robin were my favorite comics of all time. So the show, Doomed to Repeat, again, I wrote it before... It was going to be a quaint show about what has happened...
What was happening during election. And it ended up, he won and it flipped the entire show. Like I didn't change anything about the show, but all of a sudden the show became really poignant. There's a bit on immigration. There's a bit on the fifth generation problem about going through the history. There's like, and it's, it's one of the best shows I've ever written, but man, it really flipped.
The interesting thing about this show is I did a show called Amerageddon where I really went after him the first time he got elected. And this time, I went around it. I didn't go at him. I just went around. Because my family's here since 1635. So I kind of approached it from that angle. Do you guys know, like, I didn't know California public schools suck so bad. Like, history. They just, they never taught us stuff happened before. They just never taught us. So, do you guys know what the...
the Quakers and the Puritans. They were like gods, bloods, and crypts. Did you guys know this? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I didn't know how different they were. Like, here's how bad it was. The Puritans came over to America, got kicked out of England, got kicked out. The most lovable people, the most polite people were kicked out. They were like, pardon me, Puritans, you're trying to impose your religious will on everyone. So we had a meeting over tea and we've decided that you bastards get the hell out quickly. So, I say something way worse in the show. But, but, uh,
I just really got that how we're still the same people 400 years later. We still have one side that wants to run everybody, wants to control everything, including vaginas. And if you don't do what they say, they're going to end you. And you have this other side that wants to let you do anything and everything you want, be who you want. But if you happen to call them the wrong name, you just wish you were dead. And so we're 400 years into that, and we haven't changed at all. And this show is...
I was in North Dakota thinking, oh, this is red stuff. These people are going to hate me. I got a standing ovation in North Dakota. And the last bit is immigration because everyone has this thing about immigration. Like, yeah, get out of my country. Well, everybody on this country is an immigrant. Everybody.
Everybody, you, unless your name is runs with bears or snuggles with ferrets, you came from someone else. So I did this a long bit on immigration, and I said, all right, because people think, well, yeah, get it, it's my country. Well, so if it was ever here first, in a country that was developed by immigrants, for immigrants,
If you think that because you were here first, you get to make the rules. Well, my family got here in 1635. So who preceded you? I was here. I was here first. So who preceded your family? Who preceded your family? Like the standards, like literally it was two boats. They came over the hope. There wasn't anybody here. Yeah. Well, there was three. There was nobody here. There's like 3000 people. You know, well, there was there was other people here, but they lived here already. They're not here anymore. OK. They fell. They fell.
So, uh, Doomed to Repeat is... Doomed to Repeat, yeah. It's, uh, available now? No, no, no. This is the show you're doing. Uh, Carrying Monsters. I did a show called Carrying Monsters, which is an hour and 40 minutes about the worst stories of my life. I think I talked about it last time. Yeah, yeah. That's my website right now. Because you have your foundation, too. You know, right? Yeah, yeah, the Insight Youth Project. Which does great work. Uh, we, yeah,
What we do is so many charities you don't know what you're giving the money to, right? It's spread out. So we pick one charity and we go, let's say, you know...
Covenant House. Yeah. And we do one show, all the money from that show goes to that one charity so they can actually spend some money on something they really need. And then we pick, then the next year, two years later, we pick another charity and then we, is it, it's right going? Because everybody knows where their money's going because when you give money to a charity, you're never sure what the hell's going on. I don't want to pay for a jet. It's always sucks when you are like,
a charity that you've given money to and then you see the CEO of the company or the guy who's, or the charity running it, standing in front of a mahogany desk and driving a Lambo. It's like, huh? What's going on here? Being driven in a Lambo is even worse. Do you have a driver? Yeah, that's not cool. So, yeah, we do that. And anyway, come see the show. The show, what it's done is because everybody's a little bit rattled about what's going on right now. It makes you feel better about that and you'll laugh your ass off about it. Gilliam Comedy Club tonight and tomorrow. You mentioned Carlyle.
and Robin. I assume you mean Robin Williams. What was it about Robin? No, Robin Thicke. My favorite comedians are George Carlin and Robin Thicke. Not even Alan Thicke. You went with Robin Thicke. The musician? You went with him. So what was it about Robin's song? Because you hear
There's so many people mention Carlin and it's plain what his influence was. But what was it about Robin Williams as a stand-up? Because I love his acting and his stand-up slayed me as a kid when I was growing up. It's weird because Robin opened the toy box that comics didn't know they had. Before Robin, there was Alan Carr. Even Carlin was very – Carlin's such a great writer.
What Robin Williams did was, and reality would have concept, was one of the first albums I ever purchased as a child. And I remember being blown away. I was already a fan of comedy. I knew I was going to be a comic when I was five. And he would just, it was just this pinball of crazy voices, music. And so what happened was, but then you see, he did...
of mass distraction. And watch that special. It is as good as any Carlin thing. He just did it differently. He did it like a little kid talking about politics, but he was always very insightful. Carlin went after you. Carlin, at the end of Carlin's life, even I was like, you're so grumpy. This is,
Come on. But Carlin was, everybody got it. Everybody got it. Yeah. And the thing that I thought was really cool. Well, can I tell you a story about Carlin? No, you can say that, but I saw him live once. We were spreading my dad's ashes at the casino. I didn't mean to interrupt you, man. No, no. At the casino in Tahoe. We actually walked my dad's ashes there.
and dumped them in the casino. We just kind of walked through and just... And it's weird. I did a bit about it because we really did it. There was a contrail of my dad's dust behind me as I'm walking through Caesar's Palace. People were inhaling your father. My sister, yes. Yes. My dad, it's good to know that years later, my dad's somewhere in a vacuum bag in one of the hotels. So...
And my sister actually walks to a packed blackjack table with a handful of my father and goes like this. Oh, wow. And she goes, magic dust. And pit bosses walked up. What are you guys doing? And he was looking. No one knew what to do. Wow. But Carlin was there that night. We got to go see him. And I'm a huge fan. I got to see him live. And at the time, I had Titus. I was on TV. So I went to that. I used that. I could. I whored that when I had it.
That's why if I don't give him one, they're like, no. He was a pain in the ass. Don't let him be famous anymore. So I'm sitting at this thing and I'm watching Carlin. And it's in Tahoe. It's the middle of winter. Skiers are up there. Wow. And he's killing it. I'm dying. But what I don't realize is going on behind me is these uptight kind of skiers are kind of behind him. They weren't. I was ruckus. I heard me myself laugh. And so here's Carlin. He's killing it. I think it's some of those barometer. He's working on new stuff.
gets to a point where he just stops and he goes, everybody wants to know, I'm supposed to do five more minutes, but I don't really like you people. And he walks off the stage. Wow.
What I didn't know is the audience wasn't digging him like I was. And honestly, looking back, I know that when you have that guy in the front row that's laughing way too hard, I was that guy for college. So he's like, I got to get away from this. This Gary Busey looking. I love the story, though, the documentary. I think it was at Apto. Yeah.
And there was that moment where Carlin used to be a self, like a joke, like a circular joke on himself because it was, you know, where do we get, you know, coffee, whatever. And the whole pentameter and everything. And then he had that epiphany. And you had people like even Bill Burr admitting, going to see this guy and sort of mock his predictable standup. And then he unleashes this new thing. And it was like, oh.
Unbelievable. They walked out jaws open. They couldn't believe what they saw. Yeah, there was a moment. My son started doing stand-up, so that's horrible. He did. He started doing stand-up. When? When did he start? About a year and a half ago. And he wrote his first really... He called me...
gives me new material sometimes to tell me how it's working. And he wrote his first good joke a year and a half in where I was like, dude, that's a joke. Can I tell it to you? Yeah. This is from Jet Titus. This is his joke. I'm not stealing it. I'm his father. From Jet Titus. I helped really, I really wrote this if you track the lineage. Through sperm, I wrote this joke. So here's the joke. He goes, and it's simple, but he goes, I realized I was in a toxic relationship when my girlfriend,
poisoned me. And he tells me on the phone and I was pissed. I was mad. I'm like, that's a good joke, you little prick. I was so mad. And he goes, really? I go, yeah, that's like a TV joke. And so he's learning. How old is he now? He's 20. He's going to college at Sonoma State. And I keep telling him, I literally tried to talk him out of it. I'm like, you don't want to do this. He goes, no, I love it more than anything, Dad. And I go, well, what do you think of my special? He goes, well, I haven't really watched it.
I'm like, are you out of your mind? Is there a percentage? And I've heard this many times. Professor will ask this question a lot. The parents on the show will ask if your kid gets into your line of work. But there's got to be a bit of pride that he's delivering. No.
I honestly wasn't because if you suck at comedy, it's really brutal. If it burns in you but you're not funny, you can't – it's like I'm going to be a rock star. But if you can't – if you don't have a left hand, you can't be a rock star. So comedy is even worse than that because you have to be funny. And I was helping him a little bit and then he wrote that joke out of his own and I was like, okay, all right. If you're going to – all right, I'll let you –
I hate your life. Go ahead. I'll let you live on the road and stay in the worst hotels ever and then have some guy try to pay you in cocaine. Sure. Whatever, man. You can have fun. Go ahead. You can have some comic steal your crap. Sure, man. You know, this is a good life. You'll enjoy it. If you look back now, though, and you've had this career, you had this, you know, all this stuff and you've had, we've gone through the many things from your TV show, directed movies, had a bunch of kids. I'm on my 11th special. Yeah, you know that.
I'm doing all right. I'm still doing radio, morning radio, so I'm not doing that good. Well, still, we do it every day. That's a valid point. Yeah, so... But I get to do the... Again, I get to do the best radio in the country. Yeah. No, no, I appreciate it. But the truth of the matter is, is that...
It seems like you're in a really good place. You got the outlet with your own podcast. Well, when did you guys finally decide that you got... Okay, so there's a moment when you guys... Okay, you guys have been doing this for a long time. Yeah, I can remember. When was the day you knew that you guys were great at it? Well, we never say that. We never say...
Okay, if I said to you guys right now, there's something I could say about you. You know, like you use big words because you feel stupid, right? And you'd say, well, I need to work on that. But if I said, you're really a crappy morning DJ, you'd laugh in my face. Right, right. Right? Yeah, sure. So when did that hit where you knew that?
So we've always had fun, okay, number one, no matter what, in this configuration, we've always had a good time, and we're hoping that people would enjoy that. But when we started getting feedback from the audience, that's where it comes from. That's when you know whether it's hitting or not. And probably when I realized that we had something really special...
I'm trying to think of a moment. I knew when we were starting to hit. And I told you the first time I felt that was when an Eagles cheerleader said, I listen to you guys every day. I'm like, you listen to me. It's as simple as that. It's those moments. Yeah. But even now when it goes wrong, you guys still know you're good. Well...
When it goes wrong, you can brush it off. And when it goes great, you can brush it off. I think that's one of the strengths of this show is when we have a crappy show, which happens occasionally or every day, you go and you do the next show, right? When you have a great show, we're happy about it. And then we go and we do the next show the next day. And you move on. There's always forward momentum. But I'll tell you what, Chris, I think it was accumulative. It was over time because when we started seeing...
coming and going. Yeah. And we were still sticking around. That's when I'm like, oh, I guess we're pretty good at this. It's time to renegotiate it. Well, you know what? You know this? You're probably a proponent of this as well, which is that you never buy your own. So you're a proponent. You had to say proponent. Dude.
That's not a Stephen Hawking word. But you know, what I'm saying is that you never buy your own... The biggest pitfall is to buy your own crap. We've seen it happen time and time again where people get puffed up with like,
Our pecking order is just below local weather, guys. Never, never think you're more than that. I don't mean that. I mean like so I just got recently in – what's today? So like last Thursday, I hit this agent. I was like, oh, you could say a lot of stuff about me. You could say he's got an anger issue. Yeah, he talks too fast, whatever. I would go, yeah, I probably need to work on that. If you said you don't know how to write comedy –
I would laugh at your face. Yeah, yeah. And I don't mean I'm the best at it, but I'm good at what I do. Right, right. So that's what I'm talking about. When you said I'm happy, and I went back to what you said four hours ago when I went on this tangent, sorry, is that I got to a place where I, but even though it was this morning, I got up this morning, and you guys, I want to be,
do well on your show. You always do. Yeah. Well, today aside, yes. But I wanted to, but I still get nervous about it, but I know that it's going to be okay. That just happened. Oh, really? Okay. Oh, yeah. I live in constant fear and desperation. That's how I got this far. And now your kid's funnier than you are. Ha, ha, ha.
You're the first one to say it. There you go. I was waiting for it, too. My wife did comedy for us 15 years, and everybody goes, you know, she's funnier than you. Yeah, great. Thanks, guys. Yeah. But then again, my kid's funnier than me because my sperm made him funny. It's evolution. It's like altered states. He's going to hear that for the rest of his life. Yeah, you're welcome. No, it's just that you've been to... Your stories are amazing, and the stuff that you've been to. So we, as friends, would like to consider you...
at least know that you're happy. Yeah, no, I'm good. Okay. I'm good. Excellent. Even when I'm unhappy, man, so something happened in my life recently and I told my manager about it and he goes, well, I know what the next show's going to be about. And he was dead serious. Do you literally have a case where something goes wrong and you just can't wait to get to the stage? 100%. Sometimes I'll literally, like the house fires, like the,
instantly know that, oh, that's a nightmare. That's 14 minutes of comedy. Same here. We had over this past weekend, we were in Florida coming back from spring training and we had, it was massive, massive, massive flight delays. They were like six, eight hours, ridiculous. And the only thing that was holding on to us
This is going to give us something to talk about next week. Oh, yesterday I showed up to the show 12 minutes. American Airlines is running like America is currently being run. Holy God. Holy God. American, I've never been like, and they have an attitude. I'm like, wait. So the week before my luggage didn't leave LA. I landed at my gig and I'm like, where's my luggage? And they go, oh, it's Denver, Los Angeles.
12 hours ago. And they got mad at me because I was pissed off that I have a show to do it. Yesterday, I get on the plane. As I check in, I'm not even in yet. And the lady goes, yeah, which was 45 minutes late. I just got here. How are you 45 minutes late? So then she goes, well, she goes, you have a 20 minute layover. I go, I can run. That's fine. She goes, yeah, but your luggage won't make it. Like they're just giving me these horrible facts of their incompetence. Here's the facts of our incompetence. Your luggage is not going to get there.
So I have to wait, get another flight. I get here. I literally get here. I walked into the club 12 minutes before showtime last night. Oh, my God. Had to change in the green room. Didn't even go to the hotel. Oh, wow. Didn't even go to the hotel. So American Airlines, their new slogan is like, hey, whatever. Listen, so we had the thing. These guys had the day from hell traveling. Casey and I were traveling the day before. Six hours is a lot. There was a two and a half hour delay.
delay. There was never word one. Right. Never word one. The pilot didn't come. Sorry, there was some bad weather over. Never word one about why the delay occurred. Right, Case? Nothing. Nothing. So they didn't even apologize. Nothing. By the way, six hours is nice. I was there for
12 hours. Oh, God. When did we get to this place where... My wife always goes, you get so fired up when people don't do their job. And I go, because of my job. If I get on that stage and I'm not funny every 15 seconds doing a new show...
It's over. I don't get booked again. My job doesn't work. Airlines, we had a plane, came in, my wife on our plane landing, and we get to the runway, and I'm like, we're getting real close to the runway. We're landing, right? And I'm like, it seemed weird. I've been on enough planes to know we were really low. I mean, I'm talking four feet low. Oh, wow. Like lower than we should be, and all of a sudden, full power, and we go up a round.
And my wife's dad was a pilot. And she goes, that was weird. She goes, did you hear the wheels come down? Because you always hear, ooh. Yeah, yeah. And I go, no, I didn't. So this idiot, whoever was running the plane with 360 people on it, forgot to drop the landing gear. My bad. Yeah, yeah. So guys, we got it.
It's all right. Can I tell you a story? It's a true story. My dad, many years ago, you know, it's this traveling salesman. All around the country, there's American Airlines. They don't give these plaques. So you have brothers and sisters that you don't know about. More than likely. Two that I know. Anyway, these plaques that, you know, I travel to the moon and back in miles or whatever. He's on a flight. And he is such a practiced traveler. They're coming in for a landing. I might have been at LaGuardia in New York.
And he's traveling with a guy who travels just as much. And they look at each other and go, I didn't hear the landing gear come down. I mean, they're so used to that. Yeah, right. And he goes, to the stewardess, you know, can you come over? I don't think the landing gear is locked. It hasn't come down. And she goes, it's okay. No, I'm serious. Could you do me a favor and just at least mention it to the pilot?
They go, you know, a couple minutes pass, the cockpit door opens up, and either the pilot or the co-pilot comes out with like a hand winch. Oh, to open up the floor? And lifts up the floor and engages something, and the landing gear goes down, and they gave him like bottles of... I mean, I...
More than bottles of champagne they should have given him. But the landing gear wasn't down. Wow. I love that the guy came up with a crank and hand cranked it down. What was, what, what, what? Is this World War II? What was exactly, what was it? And did your father say, excuse me, the landing gear is not deployed? Did he use really good words that we learned it from? Deployed.
He did have a good time. Of course he did. Wow. All right, well, listen, we got to wrap, bud. Great, great. It is wonderful, wonderful to see you.

A parking spot that sold for a half million dollars two years ago is back on the market for $750,000.
Manhattan or London? This is in Beacons Hills Brimmer Street Garage. Uh,
Steve, you know what? It does not say what city this is in. Speaking of hell, that's Boston. That sounds like Boston, right? Yeah. So that is just for a single parking space. And this is not uncommon where you get these, I mean, that's a mother effer, but they're super expensive. It's also the name of the fictional town in the movie Teen Wolf. Are you serious? Speaking of hell. That's where they're parking the van. That's right. Oh, my God.
So the lucky buyer of the space with their Wolfmobile will get to enjoy monthly fees of $291 in property taxes, $238 in homeowners insurance, and listen to this, a $400 a month HOA fee for your parking spot.
So there are people who laugh that off. It means nothing. You've got that kind of money. But I mean, that is so savagely ridiculous. There are also limitations on how it can be used. Trucks of any kind aren't allowed and you're only able to leave or park between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. on weekdays. You think you can put a smoker on that? And 6.30 a.m. to midnight on weekends unless you make special arrangements. As an alternative, a nearby garage charges around $400 a month.
A little less than half the monthly fees that you'll get to enjoy for spending $750,000 to begin with. Jesus. A man who managed to avoid going to work for six years.
was nominated for a diligence award. Joaquin Garcia from Spain simply stopped going to his job because he claims that he had no work to do and he felt bullied. So it wasn't until the 69-year-old was due to receive an award for long service on his 20th anniversary with the company that it was discovered that he had been a no-show for six years. For six years. That's how integral he was to the goings-on. So it's very interesting how it happened. Mr. Garcia, who is dubbed El...
Funcionario Fantasma, meaning the phantom official, was still receiving his entire salary thanks to a mix-up between two departments that he was working for. So he was employed as an engineer assigned to oversee a wastewater treatment plant. He is now retired. He believed that he was being bullied at his work for his family's politics and was cast away to the plant.
But when he arrived, he found that there was no work to be done. So instead of complaining, which he feared would hinder him from finding another job, Mr. Garcia took quiet quitting to a new level and he just simply stopped turning up to work. Now, he just backed into the hedges. Now, the two departments that he worked for assumed that the other was overseeing his duty. The water board believed that he was the responsibility of the city council who thought he was working for the water board.
And Mr. Garcia took advantage of the mix-up and occupied himself at home reading about philosophy. So for six years, his absence went unnoticed until he was due to receive a medal for 20 years of service. What would we have done without him? So Deputy Mayor...
Jorge Fernandez, who hired Mr. Garcia, was tasked with tracking him down. Alarm bells started ringing when he was told by an employee who had an office opposite Mr. Garcia's desk that he had not seen his colleague in several years. He said, I called him up and asked him, what did you do yesterday?
And the month before and the month after that, he said he didn't want to stay. After he was exposed, the company took him to court where he was ordered to pay the equivalent of one year of his annual salary after tax. Wow. What have you been doing, buddy? Yeah.
So, let's go with this one. A Brooklyn crypto influencer, somebody named Thomas John Safraga, got caught running multiple scams, defrauding at least 17 people of over $2 million. And he pulled it off by pretending to run several fake real estate and cryptocurrency ventures.
as well as a made-up latex manufacturing company called Vandelay Contracting Corporation. That's right out of Seinfeld. That is exactly the same name that George Costanza gave the fake business from Seinfeld. I'm back!
He promised them big profits, but it was all a lie and he kept the cash. He was sentenced to four years in jail last week and will have to pay back the money he swindled. That's why it helps to have some pop culture knowledge. Yeah, you're right. You're right. And by the way, crypto has taken a massive dump lately. Lost $1.
I don't even know. The Bitcoin was like 100. Now it's down into the 80s and stuff. So I took a bunch of money and I invested in pasta. And I'm telling you, Preston, it's worth every penny. I knew it. I knew it. I knew it. I knew it. Okay. All right. How long? How long have you been sitting on it? A couple of days. Okay. Good.
I love the assessment of how long he's been waiting to use it. Sometimes you can tell it's spur of the moment. That one you kind of sensed it was around for a while. He's getting better at not getting all excited about the punchline. At least your physical... Believe me, man. Your physical tells have pulled back a little bit. My insides are jumping right now. Are you nervous when it happens? Yes! Yeah, because he doesn't want to flub. You don't want to mess it up. I don't want to flub Ka-Robert, you know? Like I did last week.
It was for kebab, right? Fancy kebab. All right, how about this? A rich guy in Switzerland got fined $110,000 for driving too close to the car in front of him on a highway. Tailgating? Yeah, and he was fined $110,000. So he was in a BMW going 74 miles an hour, just 26 to 40 feet behind the other car for over a mile. Now...
Why does it matter that he's rich? Well, in Switzerland, fines depend on how much money you make. So, since he's a millionaire lawyer, he got hit with a huge penalty of twice what his car is worth.
He tried to fight it in court saying the rules weren't clear, but he lost and has to pay $14,500 in court fees on top of the fine. The only good news for him is that he won't pay the fine unless he messes up again over the next two years. On average, don't they recommend you stay one car length behind for every 10 miles of speed? For every 10 miles per hour. That is correct. Yeah. And also, I kind of...
I'm kind of okay with the idea of the richer you are, the more a penalty you incur because what's to keep you if you're filthy rich from almost doing whatever the hell you want except for repeating and then getting into more trouble. But the same thing with this guy. He won't have to pay it if he's clean for two years. So at least they give you that buffer. All right. And then one last story.
If you have an iguana problem on Marco Island, there's only one person to call. It's a guy named John Johnson. This is in Florida. The owner and founder of Down Goes Iguana has been removing the invasive pets for years, responding to calls, killing the lizards on site. However, when you remove hundreds of pests in a year, you have a lot to deal with. And he said that's where this was born. And he's laughing about this, talking about it over the grill.
While others see it a nuisance, Johnson sees a breakfast opportunity. He harvests iguana eggs with the enthusiasm of a man who has discovered a hidden culinary treasure. And he said, and I quote, it doesn't get more Florida than this. So they're eating iguana eggs? Yep, so his iguana egg recipe isn't much different than your typical breakfast. He combines the rich yolks with a touch of milk, whisking them with salt, pepper, and a blend of Latin-inspired spices, including fajita seasoning and garlic.
As the scrambles sizzle, he incorporates diced ham, peppers, and onions, ingredients reminiscent of a classic omelet. He said they're eggs, so I'd treat them like eggs. And he said it tastes like eggs because they're eggs. If I put them in front of you and didn't tell you what it was, you'd have no clue. I'm looking at what these are. These do not look like conventional chicken eggs. No, no.
Not at all. They look like a vegetable. Yep. And so I don't know how they cook up, but he says they taste as good. Oh, they cook up real good. The real thing. All right. And that is what I have in the Bizarre Falfari this morning. Hey, you know what, bud? What? We have so many things to give away. Okay. Wait, how do we do this? Well, pause the bed. I started it already, and it's a short one. Take your pick there. Oh, I wish I would have known about this ahead of time. Yeah. Wow. Well, we have a lot, and we need to get rid of these today, right? Yeah. Yeah.
Tuesday, April 8th is when the show is for Friends Ferdinand. Marissa, what do you want to do? Save them for next week. Let's save them for next week. And what about these? Those ones are for next Wednesday. Well, let me give a couple, since we've done this, we need to at least give something away. All right, so I tell you what, we'll take a random texter. Let's just text, all right? Is that okay, Marissa? Absolutely. Okay, what would you like them to text? Uh,
I'm going to give away tickets to see Franz Ferdinand at the Film War. Next, I would like to see the Franz Ferdinand show. On April 8th. Or she just left. I don't know. I think I made her mad. Sorry, I was multitasking. I was trying to set up a text contest as you were talking. Oh, well, listen, we can do this however you want. We said we have so many things to give away. I'd like to give away at least one thing. How would you like to do it? Oh, you know what?
You guys want to try out our new text line? Yeah, sure. Is it available? Can we do this? Can we do it now? Yes. Okay. I bet you even the text line sounds terrible. What should they text? Text anything you want. I'm sorry. I got the number. 610-660-9333. We haven't used this yet. One more time? 610-660-9333. Just text hi. How about that?
Text hi to that and we'll pick a texter out of them. We'll set you up with tickets to see Franz Ferdinand at the Fillmore on Tuesday, April 8th. Tickets are on sale via Ticketmaster, by the way. So, again, text the word hi to 610-
660-9333 and you will be in the running for it. Will you accept both H-I and H-I-G-H? Yes. Oh, absolutely. And don't be startled. You're going to get a text back asking for your name, hometown, and email address. That's because our new text line is like super high tech. Okay. So send that back as well too so we can put you in as a profile and then we can say hi to you on the air. Okay. Excellent. And we will take a quick break. We'll come back in a second. Lesson question trashed.

Friday morning, no sad bro. Very, very soon we give away that word of the week prize. So looking forward to doing that very thing. So hang out if you've been collecting the letters. Don't want to miss your opportunity. All right, we're going to give away something. Oh, wait, no, before we do that, Marissa wants to plug an event coming up. Thank you. I got nervous. I was like, oh, no, I have to go answer that. But then I wanted to do this. Well, it's less of an event and more of...
A charitable thing. So a really, really good friend of mine passed away a couple weeks ago. His name is Rich Colley. He was one of the most genuine, sweet people I've ever met. He was...
He always put other people first before him. He owned a bar in Philly called Varga Bar. It was kind of like the hub of the craft beer scene. He kind of grew it into that over the past couple of years. Somebody recently called him the linchpin of the craft beer community. And he really was. He was just rich, was always up for doing anything, was very helpful. And he's just super sweet. And he's a big loss. Sorry, I'm getting a little choked up because he's just really a sweet person.
And he had a cardiovascular issue. So, I mean, it was heart related. And I have some other things coming up with that that I'm going to talk about. But what I want to talk about right now is all of his staff is now out of a job because Vargas is temporarily closed because of that.
So they're doing a fundraiser kind of. So he had been working on some merch that he was going to sell for Philly Beer Week. He's calling it like the City Connect version of the Varga logo. And so it's all available right now. If you go to, it's kind of weird to find. So the easiest place is if you go to my Instagram, it's in my link tree. And there's some City Connect Varga shirts.
There's some Rich Loves Me shirts, which he had created for Philly Beer Week a couple of years ago. And all the proceeds from the shirts will go to his staff. So, you know, just help them out. Is there a link on PrestonSteve.com as well? I will do that as well, too. I'll put it on Preston Steve or Marissa Magnat on Instagram. And just help out those guys. If you've ever been to Varga, you know that team. They're just really great people. I was there a week before he passed. I was there with Tyrone and his wife, Elizabeth.
a few weeks before that. So, I don't know. We miss you, Rich. And he's just such a great person. And the community misses you. It's cool looking merch, too. We're looking at it right now. Hoodies and baseball tees and jackets and ring shirts and stuff like that. So, okay. Sorry to hear about you. Very sad. Thank you, guys. Thank you. All right. We're going to now ask the lesson question. We are going to give away a pair of tickets as MMR Rocks Live Thursday, April 24th at Excite Center.
Parks Casino. And the question that we will go with this morning is, in the connoisseur segment, we found out what food item actually started the war in the movie 300. Let's see if you remember what that was. I didn't remember until I saw this and Nick had written it down. So,
what food item actually started the war to the movie in the movie 300. So here's what we're going to do. We're going to use our old text number. All right, text the word ZOOM to 39333. We will incorporate the new text number in different ways as we move forward. But right now we're using the old one for this. Text the word ZOOM
to 39333. We'll send you the link and then you can click on that and jump on and maybe we'll grab you. But you need to know what food item actually started the war in the movie 300. So do that now. The trash business is a gold mine. 93.3 WMMR.

NBC says the move to Peacock allows them to claim the series wasn't canceled when, come on, it really was. Joan Rivers' daughter, Melissa Rivers, revealing she married longtime boyfriend Steve Mitchell in Wyoming on Saturday. Melissa says she loves Wyoming because she virtually never hears a discouraging word. Oh, Mike.
And finally, cruise ship medical drama Dr. Odyssey premiered a crossover episode with the Angela Bassett series 9-1-1 last night in the very tense episode of passengers airlifted off the ship after suffering a profound shuffleboard accident. All right, we will check in and see if we have somebody lined up who is going to answer the question. Nope, nobody has checked in at all on this one. So...
I knew it was a tough question. Like I said, I didn't even remember the answer to it. I said it and I forgot. What was the question again? I don't remember what the question was. What food item actually started the war in the movie 300?
Okay, what food item, cheeseburger, actually started the war in the movie 300? If you happen to have an idea, you can text the word. It pertained to Casey's story. You can text the word ZOOM to 39333 and we'll send the link to you. Case, I need you to flip these two. All right. And we'll go ahead and get music news started and then we will come back and see if we can get a winner.
I can't!

Metallica's guitarist has a lot of guitars, enough to fill an entire large book. Kirk Hammett has released a new coffee table book titled The Collection, Kirk Hammett, showing off his extensive guitar collection. This 400-page book offers detailed stories behind each instrument with photographs by renowned rock photographer Ross Halfen.
The book is available in three editions. The standard for $149, a deluxe for $299, which is limited to 1,500 signed copies and includes exclusive photographs and the custom edition. Are the guitars in lingerie or what? No, it's just guitar naked. The top of the line edition is limited to just 300 copies and it comes with a signed art print and a miniature replica of Hammett's 1979 Gibson Flying V guitar.
The custom edition will set you back $799. Wow. Do you have a guitar currently in your house? A guitar what? Do you have a guitar? I do. Okay. Yep. The book is available now through Gibson Publishing on their official website. Yeah, I have an acoustic guitar. And Casey, you do as well, yes? I do. Hmm. Kathy? No. No? I thought you have a big... You have a guitar, don't you? I do. I have a Taylor. Okay. Yeah. Kathy, you have a gong, right? A big gong. I said I have an electric guitar in my basement. I don't know if I got rid of that. All right.
So, Disturbed's lead singer, David Draymond, is... Oh, wait, hold on. Oh, my God. This just in. We might have someone who has an answer. We're going to go to Mark, who is joining us via Zoom. Hey, Mark, how you doing? Hey, I'm doing good. How are you guys? Wonderful, bud. Okay, so do you happen to know what food item actually started the war in the movie 300? Would it be cheeseburger? Oh, my God. How did he get it?
Yes. Hang on, Mark. We are going to give you a pair of tickets as MMR rocks live Thursday, April 24th at the Excite Center at Parks Casino. To purchase tickets, visit parkscasino.com. Must be 21 or over, over, over, over, over. Okay, gambling problem. Call 1-800-GAMBLER. I said over, and then I meant to say older, but I said over again. It's okay.
No sand, bro. Tonight at 7 o'clock. Tonight at 7 o'clock. Shut up. It's not like I have a history of doing that. A lot of words, man. David Draymond is suing his former landlord over mold issues in a rental home in Coral Gables, Florida. Coral? Coral! We need to get... We have it. We do have coral? Yeah, we have coral. Alright, hang on a second. Coral! Coral!
Uh, Draymond claims that he paid $18,500 a month for... This isn't the, uh... What is it? What does he have? There we go. Okay. Uh, yeah, Coral Gables, Florida. So, Draymond claims that he paid, uh, $18,500 a month for the 5,200-square-foot house, uh,
starting in December 2022, and then discovered mold and leaks that weren't disclosed before moving in, which he says harmed his health and singing career. That is a surprise. Yeah. In September 2024, he sought to end the lease, accusing the landlord of fraud and negligence. It's ruined my voice. You sound the same.
Draymond also alleges that the landlord hasn't returned his $37,000 security deposit. Wow. Draymond and his then-wife and son moved to Miami three years ago after living in Honolulu. He sold the home that he had bought there after divorcing his wife. Cool! There you go.
That's a good one. All right. And then finally, one more plug for our buddy Sammy Vile and his band Vile Bread. They're doing a tribute to Radiohead's The Bends at 118 North and Wayne. And it's today. Tonight at 9. Actually, doors are at 7. And tonight at 7 o'clock. Tonight at 7 o'clock. Tonight at 7 o'clock. Tonight at 7 o'clock.
He said they're going to perform the whole album plus many more Radiohead tunes and wanted to get a little plug. So we're throwing that out for Sammy Vile and Goo. And Goo. Yeah, Goo. Goo! Quick question. So that's like, that was found that way, sped up, right? That wasn't, was that the way it occurred? I didn't say it that way. Right, obviously. But when we play back the file. Yeah.
Tonight at 7 o'clock. It's pitched up a little bit. I remember you being surprised that it was pitched up, right? It was like that corn riff that has... We don't know how that happened. That's it. We're going to take a break. We'll come back in a second and we'll wrap up the program. We'll give away that prize. Stay with us.

Now, back with more of the Preston and Steve Show podcast. That's that Billy Idol tune on 93.3 WMMR, still dancing. It is 10.39. It's a Friday morning, and we are at the tail end of our radio program.
Shortly, we will be giving away our letter of the day, word of the week prize to a lucky individual. And if you've been keeping track of the letters, hang tight. It'll be just a moment. I would like to thank our guests on the program today. First of all, Mr. Landon Dickerson. Woo!
Of your Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles, I love that guy. Regular guy. He was so easy to talk to and loves cutting grass. Dare I say, Kelsey-esque. Kind of. Yeah, yeah. And a little bit of a different vibe, but that really... Every man. Every man kind of thing. But, you know, I thought the...
I knew the story about the lawnmower and everything that he got, but I didn't know he really, really, really loves cutting grass. That's what he wants to do. I could connect to that, yeah. And I love the Forrest Gump reference. I cut that grass for free. Casey pointed out he went to Alabama as well. Must run in the...
In the state. So thank you to Landon. And also joining us in that same segment was Steve DeLong. And Steve's son has autism and they have a special fundraiser that's coming up this weekend. It's at the Daisy Tavern. I'm sorry, it's next week. It's next Thursday.
And that's in Conshohocken. It starts at 6 o'clock. And as you can imagine, well, first of all, Landon's going to be there. You can come and get pictures and stuff. They have all kinds of autographed merch that you can bid on or you can buy and all kinds of different things. And Nick and Kathy are going to show up at the event, too. And it's for Steve's son, Bradley. So they really need to raise some money for this. So if you can join, that'd be great. And then we had Titus. Critics for Titus. Yeah!
Who's at Helium Comedy Club tonight and tomorrow, and as always, full of energy. I want to remind anybody or invite anybody to join me and Nick and Marissa tomorrow at Camelback for their 20th annual pond skim. It's happening. I think festivities start around 9 a.m., but it is a party. It is going to be a good time, so if you were thinking about it or if you didn't even know about it, check into it. Camelbackresorts.com has all the information.
What is it? So, I mean, I've been hearing you guys talk about it. You ski down the mountain. It's like an end of the season celebration. You ski down the mountain and they literally have a pond of water and you got to try and see if you can skim across the entire pond. So you're snow skiing down the first part and trying to water ski across. That's exactly it.
Exactly. And it's pretty wild to see it. And a lot of people, surprisingly, can clear it. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Yeah, that's great. What time is that tomorrow? So 10 to 2. But like at registration, all that stuff starts at 9. But start the party tonight. We're going down tonight.
You're probably the most accomplished skier on the whole staff, dude. You should do this someday. I could do it. I could do it. You could. I can't do it tomorrow, but I will do it another time. That'd be great to see that. I would like to. Oh, dear. Yeah, we're watching video of it. It looks like they're going into the swimming pool. No, they... Well, I... They probably have... Yeah, they probably have... It looks like a swimming pool almost, doesn't it? I'm sorry, what? No, nothing. They use a liner. There is a liner to keep the water in. Okay. So it doesn't, I guess...
into the earth. And there's a water park, and so basically this is the transition from ski season to the water park season. So, you know, they have Camel Beach the rest of the year, and it's Camelback Mountain for... Camel Toe is their other attraction. There they go as a client. It was nice while it lasted. Well, it looks great fun, kids. Nice. All right, letter of the day? Yes, sir. Here we go. Preston and Steve on 93.3 WMMR.
Now, the Daily Letter. All right, and the President and Steve show is brought to you today by the letter... S as in Saturday. All right, and we'll take caller number seven with an S, all right?
