Al and Eddie, at least Eddie will be on some hikes, and we were talking about, you know, potential animals that could kill Eddie on a hike and then got talking to bears and then talking about the grizzly man documentary.

And then people, of course, are having experiences and thoughts on this.

So I thought, if you're okay with it, instead of going and rehashing a bad throw by Brett Beatty or Devin Williams giving up a home run, then we take some more bear calls. What do you think? I'm all for it. Okay, good, good. Just making sure. Anything to change a negative subject? Yeah, I feel like we need to just, you know, we did what, three hours on it? Yes. You can always go back, listen to it. We gave you hard sports

takes on it. Really hard sports takes. Now I want to talk about bears eating people.

Talking about the third base coach of the Mets. Yeah. Sourdough.

That's right. Let's go to Ron and Roxbury. What's going on, Ron?

Hello, Ron. What's going on, guys?

Hey, what's up?

How are you?

Good. What do you got for us?

Listen to you every day.

I'm a United States Park Ranger at Upper Delaware River in New York State.

Okay, nice.

We get a lot of bear calls time to time.

Most of the camps up here, they like the dumpster dive up here.

So we go over there.

Usually the siren will take care of it, but if it's more annoying, we've got some rubber chocolate shells.

We'll engage with them.

Okay, and these are black bears, right?

These are black bears, correct.

And they're just kind of like, they're just looking for food and whatever, and as you said, dumpster dive in there. They're not generally aggressive with the humans like the grizzlies can be. They're generally not aggressive like the humans. The problem is, like you guys said before, the people feeding them. Oh, well, I mean, that's just stupid. Why would you feed a bear? I mean, you're asking for trouble. Yeah, exactly. Feeding that bear. I mean, you know, you feed a cat, a stray cat. It comes back every day. That bear's going to be doing the same thing. And that cat could be feral. Could be feral. Yes. Yeah, you don't need that. Have you ever shot a bear with a rubber bullet? I have, yes.

How do they react? I've shot, too. Tell you what, the reaction is not what you think it is. Where do they go? Like, what the hell, man? Here's the minute they turn around and they look at you. Okay. Well, didn't they scurry off or no? They just like, hey, that didn't do anything to me. They never hit like that before, so they usually, they either jump out of the dumpster and scurry off or the siren. The siren works a lot better, actually. Okay. The loud siren, the patrol truck. Okay. All right. You hit the bear in the ass.
