Beantown Podcast - Highlands, Expresso, & Total Colon Rejuvenation (03062026 Beantown Podcast)

Episode Date: March 6, 2026

Quinn comes to you LIVE to discuss Bela Bartok's podcast, the World Baseball Classic, and Anibb my AI of the Weekend

Hey, what's going on? It's Quinn David Furness. Welcome to my show. Quinn David Furness presents the Beantown podcast for Friday, March 6th, 2026. What's going on? What's happening? How are you? Welcome to season nine of my show, Quinn David Furness, presents the Beantown podcast. It's March. Springs in the air. It's been raining all day. I told Rachel this morning with all this rain, we might get some buds on the trees, some flowers, poke. out. It's very exciting. That's St. Patrick's Day. Dude, next weekend is crazy. St. Patrick's Day, selection Sunday, Oscar's Sunday, all within the span of two days. We got baby sprinkles. We got grocery store runs. It's just insane. All the stuff that comes together. It's like the lunar eclipse a couple nights ago, which I saw on Twitter, I believe. I never know about these meteorological. phenomenal until after they happened. Except for the

that solar eclipse, what was that, like three summers ago, something like that, I definitely saw that one. Ran out to the lakefront. We had like eight minutes of darkness or something. It was like kind of dark. It wasn't super dark. A little dark.

Speaking of a little dark, we have a beer here. We have common culture, oatmeal stout from Sketchbook Brewing Company On the back it says a breakfast affair. This stout is brewed with layers of malted barley oats, roasted, and caramel mults, creating a deliciously smooth beverage, soft and complex, just like me, aroma of sweet and bitter chocolate with rich espresso notes.

You know, it says ex-expresso. Is that an actual thing, E-X-P-R-E-S-S-O, different than espresso? Is it the X- is intentional? Is it something completely? different. Is that like when they spell crab with a K on the seafood menu, so it's not actually from this, it's not real

crab, it's faux crab, faux f-a-u-x? I don't know. Isn't it fun how foe and ox cord are basically like the same word, but got completely different sound combinations going there, faux and ox. Ox is fun, so it's kind of like ox, O-X,

with just a little hawth thrown in there. Not really the cough, it's just of what came out of my mouth when I was doing it. Rich espresso notes balanced by Noble Hop Bitterness. Very interesting. Noble hop bitterness. Well, this is my first sip, so here we go. I can taste the real espresso flavors, that's for sure.

What's going on? Listen to discretion advice when you're listening to this program, number one on occasion you use some language. Number two, this podcast is objectively terrible. And, of course, we mentioned this at the top of last week's show. I thank you to everyone who donated. to our Pledge Drive fundraiser during Giving Month last month in February.

It was a huge success, and your charities that matter the most to you, they appreciate your support. Listener, Topaz Elite donor prizes still in the works. Not going to forget, there was one year where we were just like, oh, yeah, we're going to do this and then completely forgot about it. That's not how we do things around here in Beantown, new leadership. and it's on the agenda.

Just been kind of a hectic couple of weeks here. So it's going to happen. Not dropping the ball on this one. Shoot, there was something I was going to say and I completely dropped the ball on it. Oh, well, while I'm trying to bring that back to the forefront, I will say thank you to our, oh, I think I remember what it was. Thank you to our friends in Pakistan.

Thanks for making us the 112th ranked comedy podcast. in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan. What I was going to say is, you know, just because February is over doesn't mean you stop giving to the things, the charities, the causes that matter to you, case and point. And this is different for everyone. Everyone's in a different financial situation, so I'm not here imploring you to do this or do that.

But I was just on Facebook mere half hours ago and saw that one of my favorite restaurants, in the city of Chicago, Alexander's, which is a family-owned diner with a couple different locations, but I used to go to their kind of, I think, their OG location all the time. I don't know which one is OG, more Lincoln Square or Rogers Park, or Edgewater, actually, go there all the time when I lived up there and it got broken into, they stole their sound system, their Bluetooth speakers, their internet modem. So I threw in, you know, 50 bucks to the GoFundMe just now because,

I think five, ten years ago, I never would have done that sort of thing. Even for a business or an organization I really cared about it. It's not just about having more money now. It's just, you know, when I'm lying there on my deathbed, I'm not going to think, man, I wish I had that extra $50 because I know I'm doing, you know, just fine. And there's tons and tons of family businesses out there who could really use the support. And I'm just thinking if I were in their shoes, if I owned my own little diner

and I'm scaring up skillets and scrambles and biscuits and whatever else you have. Maybe you have a common culture oatmeal stout because it says it's a breakfast affair, although the Alexander's diner I went to, never served beer. Whatever you're doing, whatever you're scaring up, you know, I know. If my business is broken into, let's say case and point, someone breaks into the Beantown podcast HQ, steals the Samson Q2U series, both of them, They just, they don't even leave the crumb. Like when the Grinch steals Christmas, he reaches back down the chimney and grabs the last crumb.

You know, I would appreciate a little bit of extra coinage here and there to try to get back on my feet. So keep supporting your local businesses, whether they've been broken into or not. I got a couple of things we're going to bop into here. Not going to keep you too long. The first thing I want to mention, I, you know, I've been. been pretty good, let's say last year, year plus about making show notes every week for the program. So we at least have reminders of the critical junctures, whether it's palindrome of the week or ad reads, whatever it is. So I think I was walking and trying to type a couple days ago when I created this because I just pulled it back open today, the show notes.

And usually right at the top, it should say, Animal of the Week and trivia. And I got the very bare bones minimum fill in those two sections. because for season 9 that's what we're going with. And instead of Animal of the Week, verbatim what I wrote, A nib A-N-I-B-B and then My A-I-O-E-I-O-E-B-B and then My A-I-I-O-O-N-E-I-O-N-E-I-O-N-E-I-O-B-E-B-E-I-I-I-I-O-B-E-E-I-I-I-I-I-I-E-I-I-I-E-I-I-E-I-R-E-E-R-E-L-E-ROMITROME-E-ROMITROW. I don't know. Can you, like, name your chat ch pt all these all these uh you know sound uh home smart devices they got names right alexa is amazon and google is i don't know maybe alexa is the only one that has a name but chat gbt does that have a name i'm like or is it just like i'm i'm chat gbt that's my name gb t that's

my name gilbert patrick thomas that's what the gptt stands for you got g l pt ones now you got gpt ones i don't know so that's instead of animal of the week this week we have a nib my ai of the weekend maybe that's the new segment instead of animal of the week we have a i of the weekend and we just give different gibberish names this week it's a nib let's uh actually do our animal of the week here it is the highland cattle highland cattle you got to google these these little guys the biggest cows and all of Scotland. They got shaggy little, you know, hair,

a must, definitely a mus of hair. What is that, M-U-S-S, covering their eyes. The males got these big horns, kind of Texas Longhorn-esque, maybe not quite that big, but just looking real cute. But you wonder how well can these guys see

out there in the wild on the highlands. My question, so, you know, you hear the word highlands and highlander and it's all Scotland, right? That's just the association. My question is, is Scotland the only one who has lands that are high? How did Scotland sort of get the corner of the market on high lands? I mean, look, if you're going down to Death Valley or something,

there's nothing high about those lands, I get it. But, you know, you take your average step, for example, S-T-E-P-P-E. That's by definition a high land. So you should be able to have your Mongolian highlands And I would assume Other raised areas Uluru

What do we think the elevation of Uluru is Not like how high it is but base elevation Like what are we talking here? How high above sea level does Australia get? I don't know Like how flat is it If we get like one more degree of global warming And those icebergs melt is Australia just gone

everyone's going to have to live on top of Uluru probably not that seems drastic but so is climate change climate change is drastic by definition speaking of by definition it reminds me if there's a great you know how twitter does like these fact checks now

they're AI fact checks I think yeah they got an AI his name is Anib and some politician or someone in the Trump administration was talking about you know how Iran and has been an imminent threat to the U.S. for the last 47 years, and the little fact check below was, like, by definition,

something can't be imminent for 47 years. Which is, I think, true and raises a larger question for you. Is there a Beantown question? Poll question of the week. It's a scintillating question. Where is imminent? What's the cutoff for you of imminence? I-M-M-I-N-E-N-C-E. Don Henley, Age of Imminence.

Edith Wharton, age. of innocence. You know, I read, I don't know, I think like, what, two or three weeks, probably the cutoff for imminence. I read Ethan Fromm, F-R-O-M-E, when I was like kind of a ridiculous, not ridiculous, but like wait, you know, unnecessarily young age. I think I was probably like 14 or 15. The only Edith Wharton I've ever read. And what a name, by the way, Edith. You don't see a lot of Ediths anymore. Which actually is going to tie you that you don't see so-and-so anymore. Ties in nicely to something else I want to mention here.

Classical music stand-up, which I'll get to in a moment here. We're going to keep things high and tight today. Apologies, you look at the episode, you're like, gosh, this episode is only eight minutes long. That's crazy. Well, we're being very efficient with it. No, I read Ethan Fromm, and the only thing I remember is, there's like a big sledding accident and someone becomes paralyzed, I think, and now, what is it? It's like the guy he's sledding with his fiancee and her mom or something, and someone falls off and becomes a paraplegic and he's got to take care of them the rest of his life and he's really depressed.

It's something like that. If you're a Fromm Buff, email us, Beantown Podcasts at Yahoo.com and correct me on the plot summary of Edith Wharton's Ethan Frum. There's also that Ethan, Ethan Allen, what was he like a Revolutionary War hero or something? Is Ethan Allen the name of a store too, or am I making that up? I don't know. I feel like in our big strip mall street growing up in Rockford, Illinois, East State Street. I feel like there was an Ethan Allen, some sort of like interior design. Or maybe I'm just thinking of Pier 1 imports.

Or maybe I'm thinking of linens and things. It's a great name, linens and things. There's a 30 rock joke about linens and things. Let's see if I can pull it up live on air and recall what it was. But yeah, that's the Highland Cattle. If you're just looking for a little mood boost, just Google, mood boost. Just Google Highland Cattle, and you'll see what I mean. They're so cute.

30 Rock's linens and Linens in Things. It's just an N with maybe an apostrophe. Linens in Things. The quote is, I don't even know who said it, I think, Jack, maybe Jack Donagy. If we joined forces, we could become the greatest business power duo since Gregory Lennon's teamed up with Thomas in Things. 30 Rock is a gold mine.

We watched the first two episodes of the new Tracy Morgan Daniel Radcliffe show, the fall and rise of Reggie Dinkins. I think it's pretty solid. It's, you know, first seasons, you're always trying to get your footing, figure things out. But Bobby Moynihan is good. I feel like at times they're asking him to do a little, like, go over the top a little bit too much. And I actually prefer Bobby Moynihan when he's a little bit more restrained. because I think he's just so naturally funny

that when he like does too much it just comes across his little like forced unless it's Guy Fiery man Bobby Moynihan's Guy Fiery is just so good you know that's something I miss

and I know it's just like an intentional choice slash direction I feel like of S&L these days but outside of the obvious like James Austin Johnson is Trump who on SNL is like got a just kick-ass impression that is just like oh my god this is so good

I mean recurring or otherwise I mean Colin Jost phegeseth was good but that was just like a one-time throwaway kind of thing I don't think we're going to be seeing Tina Faye's christie gnome anytime soon for obvious reasons rip and I'm just running through the cast like obviously it's a relatively young slash new cast. There's outside of Keenan and Mikey Day, there's not a ton of longevity right now. But that's just something that I'm sorely missing. You know, you're Jay Farrow's, Bobby Moynihan wasn't like a master impressionist, but that guy Fieri is so good.

You're tearing kill him. The guys who just, like, kill it with the impressions. I don't even know. Email us being on podcast at yahoo.com. There's probably something I'm missing of guys who, like, have killer impressions. but I don't know. That's such a, I don't want to say low-hanging fruit because it takes good talent to do that. But I can only take so many game show sketches and Ashti Padilla playing some mom going over the top.

Don't get me wrong, I love Aschipedia. She's been great. But I'm missing the impressions. The thing I mentioned that it tied in nicely to you don't see a lot of so-and-so's lately. I was texting my dear buddy, Ryan, who's been on the show, I think, once all the way back in season one. And he's a classical pianist. And he's got a competition coming up and we were talking about his program.

And I was just thinking, you know, I come from the world of classical piano and how long and grueling those competitions and just your, like, recitals can be. We're going, you know, 40, 50, 60 minutes. So just music straight. And there's no other anything going on. And I'm just thinking, you know, as we get into the, as we slowly get into the modern age here in 26. I think, well, I mean, we'll start with, you know, classical music, but other art forms like this could take note as well, but we need to really bring back like the variety show, not necessarily

vaudeville, but just kind of mixing things up, the format. Excuse me, and so I was writing some, some low-hanging fruit jokes from my friend Ryan telling, you know, in between, you know, give us a little half-time intermission sort of thing where you get your finger. get a break. He had to test out, you know, some material, a different skill set. Classical music or classical piano really was the folks of my jokes stand up. And that's, I wrote that in my notes. And now I didn't get too far with some of my hokey kind of jokes, but some of the ones I came up with, actually the most recent one, I had to text them separately because this was great. And it's like, man, it's kind of a one-liner sort of thing. It's like, man, I love, I love the Messiah, but I just can't

seem to get a handle on it as I botched the delivery. So there you go. You know, name puns. There's a lot of name puns so far. You know, if Bella Bartok had a podcast these days, you think he would call it Bartok. And, you know, they kind of needs to be a third element in there to really make it fun. Like was Bella Bartok a notorious pub critic or something? I've got something on pubs too here.

We're going to get to in a moment. Or an alcoholic or something. Not that I know of. He was just a Hungarian guy who loved bird sounds in the countryside. That's essentially what I know about Bella Bartok. I had some other ones that were more just kind of Jerry Seinfeld's shit posting. Like, what's the deal with Rachmaninoff's hands? And how large is his penis?

You know, stuff like that. You ever notice? The one that actually made me think of, because I said you don't see a lot of Edith. these days. I was like, you don't see a lot of Ludvigs these days. Ludwig van Beethoven. Nor Wolfgangs, for that matter. You know, maybe Wolfgang Amadez Mozart

and what's his name, Villalobos. I don't know his first name, the Spanish guy. I think he was Spanish. Maybe they would have a lot to talk about with their wolf-themed names in different languages. That's essentially what I got to, far as a classical music stand-up. So you can see it's going to be a big hit.

You know, I think there's a lot of potential there. That could be a great, you know, if SNL doesn't want to do the impressions anymore, they could at least do classical music stand-up. That's another. Speaking of Bobby Moynihan, let us know, email us, tweet at us, at Beantowncast, or Facebook direct message us, or send us an email on LinkedIn, frankly. The show doesn't have a LinkedIn, but I do. What are those like old S&L sketches or for you Canadians it can be Mad TV or SCTV, whatever you want, in living color?

Old sketches you can define old that just like pop up in your head. They're not greatest of all time. There's nothing that special about them, but they're just you remember them. They're fun for you. I think a couple for me briefly, but I mentioned stand-up and I mentioned Bobby Moynihan, there's a Kings of Catchphrase Comedy Tour, which is a parody of, you know, the Bernie Mac and Cedric the Entertainer and whoever else was on that from what, like 2000, something like that. Anyways, this was a Zach Galphinaxis hosted episode, and I think they did two or three of them,

ultimately. I think they did one with Louis C.K., but it's the Kings of Catchphrase Comedy Tour. and this must have been, I don't know, like 2010-ish, something like that. But the four main guys are, oh man, who is? Well, I can't even remember now. Someone is white Bernie Mac. Oh, that's Jason Siddakis. He's not the main guy, though.

Rest in peace, Bernie Mac. It's Bobby Moynihan as, oh, man, what's his name? Anyways. Keenan's definitely one of them. Beef Jelly, that's his name. He's got a big 10-gallon-Hat. Bobby Moynihan, Galfanakis. And then what was that guy's name?

Paul Something. He was like a cast member from Chicago for like one or two seasons. He didn't last very long, but he was good too. He plays like the Eastern European guy. But yeah, it's the Kings of Catchphrase comedy. And Seth Myers is Boston Power. He's got a Red Sox hat on. Abby L.A.

Abby Elliott, excuse me, having a stroke over here. Abby Elliott is fur coat Rhonda. Vanessa Bear. She's like eating the microphone stand. Anyways, I think you can find it pretty easily. Zach Alfanakis' character is just like Pete Earhorn Schultz, I think, is his name. And he doesn't talk, he just plays the air horn. And then the other one, I think this is my favorite SNL sketch of all time.

Frankly, if I had to do a power ranking, that would be a good idea. for an episode not like what do i think are the 10 greatest of all time but just the 10 that i keep coming back to um you know what i really like is that papyrus sketch with ryan gosling now he's hosting tomorrow which i'm pumped for will they do an avatar three i feel like they have to is too good to let it go it's so perfect but the christmas dinner sketch it was hugh lory episode i think it's the only time hugh lory ever hosted snl uh but it's him and uh christin wigg Will Forte, Jason Siddakis, and gosh, what's that lady's name? I can't remember what her name was.

She was on for a couple of seasons. But yeah, just arguing, fighting, Crescent Rolls. And then at the end, they all sing Silent Night together. It's beautiful. It's a good sketch, too. That one's harder to find, but I think there's like a Chinese Vimeo stream that you can still pull up somewhere. I try to find it once a year.

all right uh got one or two more things here and we'll do our trivia question and then we'll wrap up i guess kind of the last big thing that i got got two forks uh off of this so i've been i was telling rachel this the other day i've been getting a lot out of the blue i don't know what happened group on like got their marketing act together but you know i i've used groupon maybe two or three times in the past for couples massages but up until very recently we're talking like this week last week I have all of a sudden out of the blue been getting all of the daily Groupon marketing emails whereas before it's like you know go to Groupon peruse it a couple times a year maybe rarely purchase anything I think I've purchased two or three times in my life now I'm

getting all the daily emails anyways the big push lately I was not really a pun intended but push is could be part of this the headline has been total colon rejuven which I never even heard about colon rejuvenation, much less total colonization. But I figure if you're going to go halfway, you might as well go all the way. That's why they make you drink the two gallons of pink stuff before your colonoscopy. So I've been told. But they're really leaning into this headline. I've gotten it like four or five times this week.

Total colon rejuvenation. There's some sort of business that helps you do your business. I don't know if it's like a colonoscopy, but they're just rebranding it as more of like a rejuvenatory experience or what the deal is. But, you know, I think there's only so many ways that you can interpret total colon rejuvenation. It's probably some combination of them getting up in there, whatever that means to you. And then, I don't know, you do it like a juice cleanse. Rachel and I did juice cleanses almost a whole year ago And I don't remember having like any particular GI effects from that

But it was a lot of juice We did three straight days Rachel spent I don't know what do you How much did you spend on your juice cleanse? Like a hundred bucks or something For three days And Quinn's over here buying

I bought like 10 bottles of juice from Trader Joe's That was crazy. The first and only time I've ever bought juice from Trader Joe's. And, yeah, they had, what, the three flavors? There's, like, the Passion Mango. It's like the orange one. And then the red, just berry flavor, I think, generic berry. And then there's the green one, which I don't know what it was, like Kiwi, Kiwi something.

You know, I got to, we're going to come back and finish the colon rejuvenation one second here. One thing that I'm so glad that I mentioned Kiwi because I never would have remembered that this was the thing. I was in a middle school teacher's lounge a couple days ago working and there were a bunch of Kiwis in there and the lunch lady or whomever was like moving some around from different boxes. Anyways, the custodians in there too and they're buddy buddy and I don't know these people but they're kind enough. We're chatting and the custodian gets his hands on a Kiwi and he says what the heck is this I've never seen this before and the lunch lady says oh it's a Kiwi says oh that's amazing I never heard of a kiwi I never tasted one I got to witness this custodian he was

probably I don't know 60 years old something like that he had a kiwi for the first time and I'm not saying like oh that's the craziest thing I've ever heard it's it's more of just like the spectacle it's like a baby opening their eyes for the first time the first time you get to watch someone have a kiwi and he had to ask you do I eat the skin? And we're like, no, it's kind of fuzzy. Probably going to get stuck in your chompers. And I think there's a lot crazier things out there for it to be your first time trying one. But it caught me so off guard.

I don't usually get to watch people try fruits, hand fruits, much less, for the first time. So that was interesting. I don't know. What do you think is like the most common fruit that you've never tried? I don't think I've had like a. Dragon fruit. I don't think I've had that. Maybe.

Passion fruit you hear about and you see in juices and the like, but have I ever sat down and eaten a passion fruit? I don't think so. I have had durian. Not good. Terrible. We should make that extinct,

preferably soon. But I think otherwise I've had the sort of the major, major fruits, if you will. You know, you got one of my nephew's little picture books and he's pointing out the cherries and the peaches and the plums and the apricots. I think I've had all of those. So pink lady apples.

Excuse me. Honeydew. That's what I got. The only other thing on the gastro, I mentioned that there were two forks. This made me think with the total colon rejuvenation. Now I'm thinking gastrointestinal, we just mentioned GI. What's they do with gastro pubs? So gastro's got two different meanings.

It can refer to your duodenum. Wasn't that a horse name a couple of years ago? Duodenum Jossil? I think so. I don't know where that landed on our rankings list. It definitely didn't win. I think I have a pretty good handle on our number one names. Duodenum Jossil.

Oh, this is a spoiler alert for May. It's on our list for this year. Okay. Forget you ever. heard that we're not going to give away any more horse names you know what would be fun though i know this isn't a horse name special but i'm kind of curious what the 2025 horse names were just to kind of relive our glory days i searched in my uh documents 2025 and that was a really bad idea because there's just so many mentions of that uh speaking of mentions of that briefly want to say

thank you to our sponsors home pride Oregon Samsung Q2U series Beantown Sports Network I think is what I call it Beantown Betts something like that I don't know and cuts by Q thank you for supporting another program another week of the Beantown podcast our 2025

8th annual horse name special 10 well I'll just read them we don't have to do the numbers concepts of a plan general Baptist Chabada Dipper I like that one that one only got to eight I would move that up now. Habit of goring, tin man kin, super diffusion, Gregorian Chance, Legally's.

I love number two. Redemption, Chacha, and number one staged business, which was a Scott Farrell thing. And I'm excited because I haven't looked at the list of all time number ones in a hot second here, but we're going to be adding to that list. obviously we'll have a ninth official number one in just about two months here will be our horse names special for season nine and that you know it all builds up to season 10 where we will have this is like how jeopardy you know now they got a million tournaments I mean give me another hundred years and we're going to have to battle of the decades here with our horse names which is

exciting a good reminder for a call to action though if you have a horse name we have a lot of a already but whether or not your submission makes the list doesn't matter because we're going to read it live on air and we're going to celebrate horse names together so go ahead and email text whatever you want to do your horse names to me whatever you come up within your head or whatever you come across in real life that is you know would make for a good horse name you can do that and I encourage you to share that with the show Don't keep your horse names to yourself, okay?

Stop horsing around. But yeah, to close the book on this, and then we'll do our trivia question. Gastro Pub, I don't know what the deal was. I mean, how is gastro happening inside you and also refers to a fine drinking experience at your local pub? And what makes a pub a gastro pub?

The bartender's got to have leather overalls on and drinks start at $12. Does that make it a gastro pub? If you order a burger, it has to be served on a wooden cutting board. I think traditionally those are sort of the boxes. Your local bar has to check to become a gastropub. Definitely has to have chef-inspired sauces.

That's a no-brainer. Okay, that's enough on gastro pubs. Our trivia question is going to take a second here because it's kind of, well, it's done in the on, honor of the world baseball classic and it's done in the style of my i don't know i don't want to say never say never when i get older it'd be great to you know have like an established trivia game that i'm just like always at it's a consistent thing i pine for that doesn't make sense in my current situation but someday i want that anyways when i lived in baltimore you all know bean town i had my

weekly trivia on thursday nights at mother's bar and grill federal hill which is longer there, Rip. Led by the incomparable Ian, what's his name? I can't remember, Scottish guy, who lived in Baltimore for a few years and has since moved back to the Highlands, if you will. I don't know if he has a cattle on his property or not. But the reason I mention all this, the halftime question was always some sort of list, and it was just, you know, name as many as you can, usually a top ten list and you get

points, you know, maximum of six for getting six. You name like six out of the ten, something like that. So we'll do something similar except try to name all ten. It's a very simple question with a very bloated explanation, a preamble, if you will, P-R-E, A-M-B-L-E. Just name the top 10 MLB home run leaders of all time. It's that simple. There's no tricks here. It's a very simple, it doesn't matter if you took steroids or not. That's the question. the best you can top 10 home run hitters most home runs of all time and see how many you can you know what i copy and pasted the uh list from wikipedia as i was preparing i did not really pay any close particular attention to it um so my eyes have technically scanned it once briefly

but in the spirit of transparency i don't really think i retained any of it so i'm going to see how well I can do as well. You play along at home. If you want some alone time to really ponder this and take it too seriously, you can certainly pause. But let's see how I can do. So we got Barry Bonds. We got Hank Aaron, keeping track on my fingers on my hand.

We got Babe Ruth. Let's see. Pujols is up there. Alex Rodriguez is up there Those are five I feel very confident in Willie Mays I think

That's six Let's see Sammy Sosa I think Seven Or maybe not I think Sosa's up there That's the first one I said Where I'm like I'm not sure

I don't think McGuire's there If I recall correctly Frank Robinson I think is up there he had a crap ton of home runs. That's like eight suggestions I've made. Anyone like super modern that's on there? I don't think so.

Like a Jim Tomey is just good but not legend. I don't know. So that's like eight. Yeah. Let's reveal the answers here. I didn't even put 10 down on the page. But, you know, know what we got to wrap this show up so here we go let's see took a i think i said all of these

names in some capacity except for one which i like to think if you give me a full five minutes i could have gotten to this name whether or not i committed to it or not i don't know but the name was ken giffrey junior so here it is uh from one down to 10 starting with 762 home runs and 10th place all time is 586 home runs so here number one Barry Bonds, two, Hank Aaron, three, Babe Ruth, four Albert Poo holes, five, Alex Rodriguez, six Willie Mays, seven, Ken Griffey Jr., eight Tommy, Jim Tomi, which I thought was not on the list, but he was, nine, Sammy Sosa, and number 10, Frank Robinson. And I don't have this in front of me, but I think Mark McGuire is like 11th or 12, something like that.
