Episode 114 - Nostalgic Pizzas and Charismatic Chronicles: Local Eateries, Maui Mike's Tales, and Batman Debates
Remember the days when local pizza joints were the highlight of our weekends? We do too. Tune in as we share a slice of nostalgia, reminiscing about iconic spots like Follieros and Luigi's, where the pizzas were as unforgettable as the staff. From the charm of cash-only transactions to our beloved meatball sandwiches and simple salads, these conversations will leave you savoring the flavors of yesteryear, longing for those delicious moments that made these places feel like home.
Meet "Maui Mike," the man whose stories are as colorful as a Hawaiian shirt. With tales that straddle the line between reality and fantasy, Mike keeps us entertained with his claims of connections to sports legends and life as Oprah's neighbor. His storytelling might not always be consistent, but his charisma shines through, providing plenty of laughs and a reminder that sometimes, it’s more about the journey of the story than its truth.
Ever wondered which Batman portrayal is the ultimate? We dive into a lively chat about the caped crusader, comparing the brooding Affleck to the classic Adam West, and everything in between. Meanwhile, in the world of music, Snoop Dogg’s ambitious plans for Death Row Records spark discussions on new talent and genre-bending collaborations. And for a sprinkle of sports nostalgia, we ponder the evolution of baseball legends and the hypothetical musical paths they might take today. Join us for a mix of humor, history, and speculation that aims to entertain and keep you coming back for more.

Rick:Did they? How long ago?
Lano:Is that the one?
Rick:Their kids took it over Right down 50?.
Lano:Yeah, 50, yeah.
Rick:When, in the 90s 80s, the pizza was a lot better, it was very, very similar to Fileros. Oh, okay, but it had like these little air pockets in the bottom of the crust, delicious. Now, when I went with Dolores, one time we got pizza Sucked, I don't know.
Mig:Because we passed by there one time we were working and there was actually parking out in front so we could park the work truck right there. We were able to watch it. We were able to watch it and, yeah, we stopped there, we got a pizza and we got some sandwiches and we thought it was pretty good, I think.
Rick:For me it was like me thinking it's going to be the same If it wasn't the same, it was different.
Lano:I mean, I've never had it, so I thought that was pretty good, but it's not the same. But is it a good pizza?
Rick:It's thicker pizza. I mean, it was like I wanted that old school feeling of eating the pizza.
Lano:I remember and it wasn't hey the pizza place, the one pizza place, what was it called? The one on Fig Luigi's? That's what it was, right, luigi's. We used to get that too, and it was next to that furniture store, right.
Rick:Yeah, Right now where Rick Rocks is at now.
Lano:I haven't been, I haven, I'm in.
Rick:The tattoo place.
Lano:Yeah, is that what it was.
Rick:Luigi's turned into that. Oh, okay, okay, luigi's turned into Rick Rocks. Yeah, next to the gas station. Yeah, across from the senior center.
Lano:Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that was right in the corner where you're talking about. We used to get it from there too, Luigi's.
Speaker 4:I don't think I ever tried it.
Lano:I want to say Falerios was always Remember we'd be kicking back outside With Chach and we would get Falerios.
Mig:Yeah, we would get Falerios.
Rick:But Falerios. I don't know if you guys remember, but Falerios in the 80s, especially if you ate there, you know they give you that tray. There was like a puddle of grease in the middle, oh yeah, so you would have to wait, and then it would suck it up and then you'd eat it, but it's still good. Now it's different. They changed the cook and they made it to the way they have it now, but it's still tasty. It's still one of the best. The root asshole is still there.
Lano:The guy with the crooked eyes still in the back washing dishes.
Rick:Dude from Luigi's. I used to get the Luigi's Special every time I'd order pizza from there. Two mediums, Two medium pizzas, I want to say they were the first delivery or something around town. Well, it was the same dude when he come to my pad. Always the same guy. There was only two drivers.
Mig:And for Leroy's it's still cash only. Huh, yeah, yeah, that's a bad thing. That's crazy dude.
Rick:It's funny cause every time I call, they're like I'll give you your total, but remember, it's cash only. And I go yeah, yeah, I want to tell them like I've been coming here for fucking 40 years bro, I know, I know.
Lano:But I wonder how they do it with all these damn hipsters. They want to just do their Apple Pay and all their crap From what I hear when they're always busy.
Rick:They like it because it's old school.
Speaker 4:These tech assholes, like the one producing this show Now the thing about Fileros is like when you bring it home it's cold and it's it's not the best when it's cold. Then when you eat it there, you burn your mouth. It's too hot, there's like a sweet spot. But what's your go to orders, when you guys go, or when you get?
Rick:Fileros. Yeah, I always gotta get a pizza and I either get a sandwich, a meatball sandwich, meatballs sandwich and pizza.
Lano:But you know what their simple ass salad is so good?
Speaker 4:Yeah, the salad. I would get the salad with the cheese and the blue cheese. I got one today. I got the pizza Italian dressing and the shit. I don't know what it is.
Rick:It's just nothing to that salad. Yeah, just lettuce and dressing.
Speaker 4:I think it's their cheese, their pizza cheese and the big.
Rick:Half of a fucking tomato. Yeah, yeah, very easy.
Mig:Less is more. Yeah, I don't have a go-to order because I don't go enough.

Rick:This dude. When I got here he goes who got sandwiches? I go whenever I go to Falerio's. Rick's orders sandwich and pizza. So I just tell him you want your usual. He says yes. Then I ask you if you want a sandwich, because Rick's getting one. You say yeah. When I was asking somebody didn't answer his phone.
Mig:Didn't we used to get the sandwiches like half meatball and half sausage?

Mig:Yeah, if G was here he would know.
Lano:Man, we always get shit wrong yeah.
Speaker 4:There was, um, I don't know if it was the last show or the show before, but like Rick kept talking to himself like in third person.
Lano:Me.
Speaker 4:Like what? In the third person, you were like talking to yourself was weird. In the third person, like you were like talking to yourself, I never talk in the third person.
Rick:No, Rick doesn't do that.
Lano:I replayed it like.
Rick:Rick never talks about Rick like that.
Lano:We replayed it like three times on the YouTube. No, we were talking about Ricky Henderson.
Mig:No, you no. Oh, we were probably talking about Ricky Henderson, yeah.
Lano:No, but I wasn't saying it, you were saying it.
Mig:But when I remember talking about Ricky Henderson last time with Roger, the Golf Course I remember talking about Ricky Henderson.
Lano:Oh yeah, we were talking about it at the golf course. Yeah.
Mig:No, not the golf course In Vegas. In Vegas at the pool, yeah, yeah, yeah To Maui, mike, that's where we wanted to get into the jacuzzi. We're all sore and everything also getting in the hot tub before they they close the pool, because for some reason they close the pool early. I don't know why pm?
Speaker 4:yeah it's hot as shit three hours before like sunset, yeah so.
Mig:So we go sit in this hot tub and there's this old dude in there, skinny like frail looking kind of old cat, you know, maybe like in the 70s or so. So we get in there and, uh, you know raj. And who was it, raj?
Lano:me you and you guys first no, not james.
Mig:James wasn't there lee lee and uh, so I start chatting him up and this dude the best way I can describe him Is that he's Forrest Gump, but without the autism Cause. This freaking dude Knew everybody. He either personally Knew them by acquaintance, or his wife knew them Personally, or by acquaintance and his wife knew them personally, or by acquaintance.
Mig:And like everybody in the sports world. Dude is like he played football with John Elway, I think like high school football with John Elway. He probably played like college football with Joe Montana. You know he pitched with I don't know man, sandy Koufax. He knew Sandy. He knows Sandy Koufax. He knew Sandy. He knows Sandy.
Rick:Koufax. So he went to you know that way, went to Granada Hills, right.
Speaker 4:I think so.
Mig:And that's the thing he says he grew up in the Bay Area. How did he go to Granada Hills Exactly? There's so many holes in his story. But great storyteller dude With enthusiasm and he lives next to Oprah.
Lano:He lives. He lives in maui and he lives next to oprah. Next to oprah, do you? Believe that shit that oprah always invites his wife over for tea, yeah, like, and their friends, whatever they get oprah. Lives in montecito, california she has a house in maui too and and then like, like, like, um, he was saying that his wife, he was there in vegas and that his wife was in paris, paris, with his daughter, and that's why he was there. But then he had just said that.
Mig:And his daughters are models. His daughters are models.
Lano:But then he said that right, so that's why he was there by himself and his wife was in Paris for that weekend. But then he comes out saying that they were at some party at the Venetian or Bellagio or something. Watch party, and then his wife was there.
Speaker 5:Yeah, so it's like wait, I go.
Lano:I thought your wife was in Paris.
Mig:We didn't call him. He's a good storyteller. It was cool. It was cool chatting him up and everything. Good entertainment, but it's funny because it's like he knew everybody. He knew John Madden, you know he played golf with Charles Barkley. He plays golf with Charles Barkley.
Lano:He plays golf with Charles Barkley. He's actually a good golfer.
Mig:You can't play right, charles Barkley, he knew everybody, everybody, anybody. He voided my question.
Lano:I asked him, since he was a pitcher, and I asked him hey, so since the time that you've pitched, pitched how you guys would always pitch the full game if you were, if you were on, you know that day. How do you feel about today's game, where you know there's just like pitch counts, pitch counts, and then there's like, uh, uh, the starter, the mid relief, the mid relief before the closer, the mid-relief, the mid-relief before the closer and the closer, or like all this switching of pitchers.
Lano:And then he just, and then he just damn went down the he busted a fucking Kamala Harris and just gave me word salad and just veered off and didn't even answer my question. He just I'm like okay, I guess.
Mig:So it's because when you pitch, you're on the mound and the mound, as you know, is where you pitch, Because when you pitch you got to go off the mound.
Lano:So I asked him I go, how do you feel about that? And then he just went on a tangent All right, he didn't even answer nothing.
Mig:Yeah, maui, mike man, and then he just went on a tangent, all right, he didn't even answer nothing.
Lano:Yeah, Maui, Mike man.
Mig:And then Raj, it was Eric Raj or Eric Eric Eric. Oh yeah, because Eric was just in Maui.
Lano:Eric was in Maui.
Mig:And Eric hits him up and tells him he's like well, you're Maui, mike. He's like what about Maui? Who was the other guy?
Speaker 4:Maui was the other guy maui, um, another m.
Mig:Oh, he gave himself that name, maui mike. He said that's his name, that's his name. He said that was to ask anybody about maui mike and they'll say oh yeah, I know him, and there was another maui paul, another guy with fame in maui you know, but he didn't know him because eric just went and he guess he's.
Lano:Yeah, he was a cook.
Mig:No, Was he a cook or something? A well-known?
Speaker 4:chef there Was it Maui, mike Maui.
Mig:Irving or Maui Irv. Oh man.
Speaker 4:Maui. Is that this guy? No, because he kind of looks like a description.
Mig:Wait, was he Maui Mike man? Yeah, the dude's name in the tub was Maui Mike Mike right. Yeah, the other Maui guy I can't remember what his name was Maui Paul.
Lano:No, he was Maui something when Eric asked him oh, do you know, maui, something he's like. Oh, no, you know, it doesn't sound familiar, it doesn't sound familiar, but Doesn't sound familiar but he goes, but ask him if he knows who Maui Mike is. That they call him Maui Mike, that they don't know.
Mig:It's like, yeah, it was funny man.
Lano:Like this guy is just trying to bullshit us in stories and like he's trying to entertain himself by giving us these bunk stories.
Speaker 4:He never talked about chicken or nothing, so this is not him. No.
Lano:No, but that place does look good, though, man.
Mig:Yeah, it does.
Lano:Where's that at In Hawaii.
Mig:In.
Lano:Maui, I guess Maui. Maybe we should go do a food review.
Speaker 4:I'm down and then what happened?
Mig:That was it, yeah, it just kept on going on and on, you know, kept finding those holes in his story and shit, you know, and we're like alright, dude, it's time for us to go.
Lano:Great storyteller.
Mig:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Goes on, this guy Goes entertaining this is Maui Mike, san Antonio, nah, nah, alright, old white guy, and then he goes, he says something like storyteller yeah it goes on this guy. It was entertaining. This is Maui Mike San Antonio.
Mig:Nah, nah, alright.
Lano:And then he goes he says something like oh, look up the, the soul year, the year. Oh no, eric was saying let's look up the Little League in Japan.
Mig:Oh, he played in the Little League World Series against Japan.
Speaker 4:Like look up the team, team Bad News Bears and stuff.
Mig:Yeah, the part that for me, where his story fell apart is that he says he was, since he came to Vegas or whatever, from Hawaii that he went to go visit his parents that are still alive. I'm like what? I'm like dude, you're like 75.
Lano:Hey, he could be like grumpy old man.
Mig:I'm like. So that means your parents are what like 106?.
Lano:We're like grumpy old men.
Mig:Freaking Maui Mike.
Speaker 4:All right, another call, we'll see.
Speaker 5:Me. I think you said it best, man, you're right, it's a business. And uh, I was kind of thinking to myself like what don't I like sports? Or why have I fell out of following sports so much? Because I used to follow it off. And the best way to simplify it is I don't like the fact that it's become a business. It doesn't seem, seem it doesn't have that feel, that vibe of you know sportsmanship, people going out to hustling, grinding, trying to work hard for this spot. It's all money, man, and, like Lionel said, I mean even watching it on TV, it's priced out. So, yeah, it kind of sucks, man, it really does suck. Good point, though, for Big Doc, thank you.
Lano:The only closest thing from how we grew up going to the Dodger games, even Raider games, to the Coliseum that passion, or whatever the only thing close to it right now is that LA AFC.
Speaker 4:Oh, the soccer yeah.
Lano:That you can still get that feeling, that old school feeling of supporting a team.
Speaker 4:And because it's new, the tickets are still affordable and stuff.
Lano:Do you want to get that old feeling? Lafc, you'll find that.
Mig:I mean, I don't know.
Rick:It's over.
Lano:It's done. Yep Dodgers is lost.
Speaker 4:Update Dodgers is lost two in a row right, yep.
Lano:So they better pull their win out of their ass tomorrow.
Speaker 4:All right, next call.
Speaker 5:G G G. Man, you're like the founding member of the Drifted on the Royal podcast. You've got to know the number player. Okay, even though you bounce, you come in. You bounce, you come in. You don't want to be labeled a guest because you've been here before, you've done this, you know how it goes. You've got to get the number down. Packed dog, come on, we need you to be on, point homie.
Rick:The number came after me. The number came after me, yeah, the number came after, yeah the number was after what's the number?
Speaker 4:G?
Rick:I still don't know.
Lano:How do you associate 323207?
Mig:207. Vegas area code is 702, so it's just reverse the Vegas area code. Oh fuck, here we go. You're asking me how I'm telling you how I can't help it if my brain Works that way, dude. Oh fuck, here we go. You're asking me how I'm telling you how I can't help it if my brain works that way, dude.
Speaker 4:So VL Vegas backwards. And then I know that there's two zeros after Zero.
Mig:Zero is so the only thing I got to remember is 12.
Lano:Plus 12, which was Gannon. However, you remember dude, or you go.
Mig:But the double zero, 12 is what's easy to remember. It's the 207 that was hard for me to remember. I just associated with.
Rick:What you're saying is how I would have associated the number. I would have said McFadden 7, jim Otto fucking Gannon why.
Lano:McFadden.
Rick:Wasn't he 20?
Lano:Yeah, but why McFadden?
Rick:McFadden was ass, just the first number that I freaking remember. Another 20 is out there.
Lano:I'd rather go, barry, I'm talking just Raiders.
Rick:Not fucking I don't know, barry Sanders.
Lano:Fucking McFadden.
Rick:Yeah, he's the first one that popped in my head from the Raiders with a 20.
Speaker 5:McFadden was booty Whatever. Hey you guys. You guys, it was booty Whatever. Hey you guys. You guys think Batman's. You guys just glazed over Val Kilmer and George Clooney. I said, val Kilmer, yes, they're awful. Batman too, man.
Speaker 4:I said Val Kilmer, I said it too.
Speaker 5:When Rick's talking about my favorite Batman, ben Affleck, I'm thinking Ben Affleck, my favorite Batman for that movie. I think that Ben Affleck looks like the character drawn in the comic books, just because he's like stout big dude. If you guys ever look at the Dark Knight and we see how they draw him up and then you see how the artists draw him on Jim Lee and Frank, how they draw him up, he's a big dude. I think Ben Affleck looks like him. So I think he's the best one for that movie. The Dark Knight Returns. But every Batman, I think for every movie, every Batman fits him pretty well. I think Robert Pattinson fits a good one for the Batman, the one you guys keep on talking about.
Speaker 5:I think every Batman has like a certain role because that's how the comic books are. They're like in different series and then they happen in different time frames and the Batmans always look different, just like the Alfreds, I mean they always look different too. And the same thing with the Jokers. I mean they all look different. So you know that's my favorite one because I think he fits the mold for that Batman movie, the Dark Knight, if that makes sense, bro. But you get me going the Batman. I started going down a rabbit hole because I see it in so many different ways. But I always relate all these comic book movies. I always relate them to the comic books. If they don't fall in line with the comic book storyline or they don't look like the character or something like that, then I kind of like it's a turn off for me. I'll watch it, I'll like it, but I just won't really love it. Anyways, guys, that's my short little snippet and then we'll holler at you guys later.
Lano:Told ya.
Mig:I mean, I get it Because I know which of the Batman in the comics he's referring to, like the one that has the mask with the short ears. That's the one that he says that Ben Affleck fits so good, right? No, the Dark Knight Isn't Ben Affleck's version, the one that says that Ben.
Lano:Affleck fits so good, right? No, the Dark Knight.
Mig:Isn't Ben Affleck's version the one that comes out in Justice League, and all that shit?
Speaker 4:That's the one that's out right now. Right, the current cartoon Doesn't he have?
Mig:the short ears on the mask no I don't think so.
Speaker 4:I think he does. It's like squarish kind of short.
Lano:I mean, I'm not, I haven't seen.
Speaker 4:There's a cartoon Batman, a movie, I don't think.
Lano:Ben Affleck's character had those small ears. I think so Not really small Because I know Christian Bale's his are fucking tall.
Mig:Right, yeah, His are really tall, you see, but I mean it's true, because it's like it's how he said. You know, it's like some, some, some will draw them like different versions or drama, like more lankier, you know, longer, taller, leaner Adam West are really small.
Rick:You know Adam West. His are on the side of the thing. They're his cow.
Mig:Yeah, I know Really small, but I remember. I remember in the comics one of them like I think it was probably when he fought Superman. I want to say, oh, that one, right, no.
Speaker 4:This one.
Mig:You see this animated one. Look at how short the ears are on that one. Look at.
Lano:Ben Affleck's Batman. See how short his ears are. Batman, see how short his ears are.
Speaker 4:There's a cartoon Batman that People say are like super, super good Because they're great. Oh yeah, they're on the short side, see.
Lano:Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 4:Come on, I don't know what the name of that movie, that kind of.
Lano:Like that one right there. That kind of looked like Daredevil the Little pointy part of it.
Speaker 4:He never had his own movie. He was always like a, like a guest character.
Lano:Affleck.
Speaker 4:Yeah, he didn't have his own, he was just like oh, that's crazy.
Mig:So what do you guys?
Lano:like the the Batman. Do you like him with the tall ears? Small ears?
Rick:Doesn't matter to me.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Mig:Yeah, it doesn't matter.
Rick:I've never really Paid attention to that.
Mig:To right now. I mean, as far as all the Batman movies that have come out, my favorite trilogy is the Christopher Nolan trilogy. For me that's the best, With the Heath Ledger Joker.
Lano:Yeah.
Mig:It's not going to get any better than that. Even that Bane character man, they figured out a way how to bring his character to life, Because in the comics Bane's supposed to be this really big monster. You know, and they did a good job of casting that dude, Tom Hardy I was born in the darkness or whatever he says.
Lano:Oh, so now I guess I'm glad I don't have to like. I liked the first Joker and now I don't have to watch the second one. That's what I was going to tell you. Dude, that thing is getting horrible reviews. Yeah, dude, that thing is getting shredded to pieces. Yeah, so.
Mig:I'm like all right cool, so I'm not going to watch it. I'm telling you and I kind of I don't know.
Lano:I kind of seen that I've seen about that Joker movie is like they're thinking like how can it be so bad that they're thinking I don't know who made it A third or what do you think? No, no, no, that the guy. I think the guy that made the first one. Yeah, he's the guy that did Hangover. It's almost like he didn't want to do the second one and they kind of like forced it so he said so this is what the people are.
Lano:Yeah, this is kind of the theory that these, these people are saying because it's so bad that they're thinking that he said all right, you know, he to the warner studios, I think I think it was that made that, that, that movie, that he intentionally made it that bad. Just to say an F you. Because, I think he just wanted to do that one movie and that's it. And then they wanted more money and it was a complete flop that people were walking out, that it's like a musical.
Mig:That's what they say. It's a straight musical.
Speaker 5:That's what I was telling you.
Lano:Even the musical parts that they don't even blend with the storyline or whatever, and it's just like a repeat of them just saying whatever happened in the first one. You know Kind of. It's like a pointless story.
Speaker 4:Yeah, it says they're leaving theaters Like what the F is this? Yeah, a lot of people are trashing it, so but I had told you that I heard it was a musical and you guys didn't believe me. But looks like I'm right again.
Lano:Yeah.
Mig:Shut up Now. This Every thousand times you cry wolf. The wolf is going to come every once in a while.
Lano:So they like, repeated, like all that. So they like, they redid, I think in the musical they redid the scene of him walking down the stairs again doing that dance. It was like a repeat, it was like man See to me dude, it's like oh, that was pretty whack.
Mig:All that shit seemed like it was like okay, I get it, dude. It's like he's psychotic, he's crazy and everything, and it's like he's loony and all this. You know it's like, but you got to go to this extreme dude to try to prove that. I'm like just show me more criminal activity, man. Show me more of his.
Lano:I agree, I agree with you that three quarters of the movie was about him, his mental issues and all that Like it was a little too much. And then the last, the last quarter of the movie I like, because now he was turning he was already the joker and the whole scene coming down the stairs, like I, I like that scene and all that.
Lano:You know when he started, but if now the movie's the second movie is just calling back of all that crap and I never seen the first one, but the way you're describing it, it seems like they were building the character. Yeah, they built the character too much.
Rick:To where they were going to have it at the end. Then there was going to be a part two to where he was going to go into all that stuff.
Lano:Oh, yeah, Like at the very end he'd be filming too.
Mig:And that's just with the title alone, just them going with the French title.
Speaker 4:Yeah.
Mig:I'm like dude, this is not gonna be good, this is stupid, and then, and then I'm like nah.
Lano:And then that piece of shit, de Niro, he's blaming the fans. He's back in it. No Well, yeah, well. Now he was pissed because whatever little bit of scenes that they had filmed with him in it. Yeah, the final cut, like they deleted all of his scenes, like they didn't even come out. But then something that he's blaming the fans why the movie is like.
Mig:Not doing good.
Lano:Yeah, I was like meh.
Rick:Wasn't it the fans why the movie would do good.
Lano:Yeah, no, it was something that he was Complaining about. I don't know.
Mig:You know, because the fans have all the input In direction and cinematography.
Lano:And script De Niro's A piece of crap.
Mig:Yeah, he is F that dude.
Speaker 4:Um, so we got One last call. Came in Within the last 20 minutes, last 20 minutes, what so let's see no, way.
Speaker 5:Death Row is not back. Death Row is not back. I'm not listening to that again. Nate Dogg's son is not the man. All you guys need to check it out and listen to it. All you listeners and you guys will agree. There you go.
Mig:There's been yes to all your listeners and you guys will agree. Yes, lano has zero hip-hop credibility.
Speaker 4:yep, let me repeat that zero so before mcgee came, out credibility before he came in showing us some new death row music?
Lano:yeah, and he's well, you told us about it, the one artist but then. But then, like Lano's trying to claim him, saying that he found him, started sending him out, but he was going down the roster of Death Row listening to the new artist. Yeah, I know it's bad, it's for this generation, it's not for us. I got to verify because some of these people we didn't Lano still wants to hang on to the death roll For the record.
Rick:I just like the singer in October London. I could care less if he was on death roll or not. October.
Lano:London is nice because he's got the old school R&B. Oh, look at it, that's him right there, it is.
Speaker 4:It's true.
Mig:What oh?
Speaker 4:look at, that's it right there, it is, it's true. What, oh? Look at, fred wreck on the beat, fred wreck oh dang, you're going to play that, mariachi so there's a mariachi, um group or some guy that it said that signed to death row, but it looks like it's true, yeah oh yeah see, this is what I was looking for, this little right here on the albums. I'll tell you this Dude that.
Speaker 5:All that.
Mig:Banda or Mexican shit. That Snoop did Was stupid.
Lano:Play it.
Speaker 5:Play it a little bit, caballo. Yo lo andaba Mirando ese hermoso cielo, la luna nos alumbraba. Le doy. Gracias a mi Dios Por todas sus bendiciones.
Lano:Oh, so he signed up Mexico, that's real. I don't know why, but I feel like we're in a fucking plate of barbacoa now yeah dude but not down the street, though, taking an unlucky route to his first signing to the new Death Row Records.
Rick:Where Down?
Lano:the street Signed a new act. On Friday they announced their first artist, Julian Torres and Mariachi Sensotel. The band released its first single, La Fiesta de Mi Pueblo, loosely translated to the festival my Town. If you're wondering how they met, it was outside Kobe Bryant's memorial service, that's cool because Snoop shows some love to the Mexicans. Yeah.
Mig:That's cool.
Lano:So if he signed this dude and gave him a deal so he can get his music out there, his Mexican music, that's cool. Oh yeah, snoop's.
Speaker 4:That looks like a pretty cool cover too, yeah.
Lano:Props to Snoop man. I felt that Snoop's like today, he was just trying everything to be stay relevant.
Speaker 4:And Fred Rick on the beach.
Lano:He should not be rapping. No more, man. It's just, that's it, that time's over. Just retire and enjoy your retirement, that's just another hot take that that Mark's probably going to chew me out.
Speaker 4:Chew me out on.
Mig:Well, just, I mean, I don't know.
Lano:No, I think it's just him.
Mig:He's touchy, he's touchy about it. Stay away from Eminem, dude, yeah he's touchy about him. He'll come at you. Yeah, bad mouth him, don't you dare. I was seeing something online that Cardi B talks shit about Eminem or something. There's some kind of beef going on there, cardi B and.
Lano:Megan Thee Stallion no, it was a verse that he said something about.
Mig:Megan Thee Stallion. Oh yeah, because she said something about keep my friend's name out of your mouth or something like that.
Lano:He said something about Megan Thee Stallion.
Mig:Yeah, and I think Eminem was like you better chill, little girl, because I'll destroy you pretty much. Yeah, it's true.
Lano:I wouldn't want to mess with that dude At this point. It's like just I mean, who is Eminem in competition with? There's no one.
Mig:Yeah.
Speaker 4:Have you guys heard those two new songs? No, we'll have to watch the videos after. What new songs?
Lano:Eminem he has like two new songs. Well, he has a new album, bro. He has a new album, bro.
Speaker 4:Yeah but have you seen the two new videos?
Lano:No.
Speaker 4:They're about his daughter. They're pretty good.
Lano:Oh, yeah, that one I did there's two of them when clips. Yeah, both of them are like that yeah, I saw one of them.
Mig:Is that that dude? That Snoop signed yeah.
Speaker 4:Oh yeah, this is the dude Snoop. This is Death Row right here. He's going to have a little chain right here, or maybe on his belt.
Mig:A spider medallion.
Lano:He's going to have a Death Row on the belt buckle yeah.
Rick:What would you do if you saw the Death Row sign another singer and you look up and it's your dad?
Lano:My dad wouldn't.
Rick:What if he didn't tell you he just has a little singer career going on on the side?
Lano:I'm going to hear more of this guy. It's called karaoke. I got to hear this. More of this guy. It's called karaoke. I got to hear this guy see how what his range is.
Speaker 4:He says he's performing at Disneyland Dodger Stadium. I want to see how Snoop's ear is.
Lano:Why did he sign this guy? Because if this guy's a good singer and he's like just like a singer, like those singers in the mariachis where they're good singers, but a singer, that's really distinct to have his own music out there, professionally done.
Speaker 4:So you guys are all bashing Death Row, but I'm digging it.
Lano:the new Death Row, this is probably the only thing I like from Death Row right here Julian Torres. That's the one actor I like from Death Row. A couple.
Speaker 4:We were talking about Sandy Koufax from Maui and Mike, Did you guys look at that Fernando picture I sent you? Oh yeah.
Mig:He looked young. He's taking time off or something, yeah, in the hospital, I think it's cancer.
Speaker 4:I mean the way he looked. He looked really bad in that photo. Yeah, I mean he looked older than Koufax. Koufax is a good 20 years older than him.
Mig:Was that someone else than Mike said he knew?
Lano:Fernando talked about it. No, he just talked about Fernando. Did he tell you he played in the Mexican League too? He?
Mig:said he knew Ron Say.
Lano:He knows all of the Ron Say yeah, Ron.
Mig:Say Davey Lopes. The whole infield Steve Garvey.
Speaker 5:Yeah, Steve.
Mig:Garvey's running for Senate. Vote for Garvey for Senate. Get that piece of crap out of him. Shift out of here.
Lano:That's oh and um that's. He's a big boy, man.
Mig:Yeah.
Lano:Not bad, not bad. I like that signee. Too many tacos and cervezas eh yeah, I like that signee.
Speaker 4:I mean it's going to be a new beginning for Death Row 2024.
