All right, you guys, you know this is for fun, so take it easy and give him a good show.

Hi, Noel podcasters.

It's your old pal, Funny Dave Damashek, here, Dave Feeney over there. I hate that name, Funny Dave Damashen. Why do you? Because you've come up with it, that's why. No one's called you that. That's not true. It's catching on. It's like wildfire. Who called you that? Who's the first person to coin funny Dave Damashach?

Dave Damashick.

Listen, that's neither here nor.

Can I suggest another one real quick? It's catching on. It's like wildfire. Who called you that? Who's the first person to coin Funny Dave Damashach?

Dave Damashek.

Listen, that's neither here nor there. Can I suggest another one real quick other than Funny Dave Damashik? Please. I think we connect the Sheck in your name, which is from Damashek. And what you do, you elicit chuckles from people. It becomes Shekels. I've heard Shekels many times

You have, Sheckles the clown

When I was growing up

I've told the story

People used to taunt me in third grade

It's like I've heard Shekels many times. You have? Sheckles the clown? When I was growing up, I've told the story. You know, people used to taunt me in third grade. And say what? My peer group really made me feel small. It was really the start of my self-esteem issues. No, it was a damn sheck. Damn people who live in the shack. I was destroyed by it. I was destroyed by that. And the opposite was probably, it't have been more true, is that you lived in this gigantic castle of a place. Something like that, yes. Up in Pittsburgh. Yes, an opulent palace. To grow up with that kind of money must have been crazy. On the banks of the Three Rivers. I'm going to say a word that I never said growing up, but I'm sure you did. O'Pair. Governance.

Why don't we, you know, that's a conversation for another time because this is our quickie podcast, of course, so we can't really indulge your need to yap about inane subjects for an hour. I'm talking about you. Inane subject. I'm not talking about the price of milk. I'm talking about you. I was more interested in trying to take a cheap shot at you. Go ahead. I'm sorry, I interrupted.

But I was thinking about this.

Why is it that in Southern California, everybody talks about, you know, obviously they're trying to control the border and so that, you know, illegal, typically are the caregivers for our young children, you know. But why don't we have au pairs in Southern California? I don't know. I'd love a foxy 19-year-old blonde with a British accent, if you please. Glasses, the whole nine yards, that'd be great. Yeah, yeah. Punishing you for being bad. So, all right, like I say, it's the quickie. Don't worry about funny Dave Damashig. That's a good name. You have larger fish to fry, sir. Go ahead. Because this is Thursday morning, and, of course, this is just, this helps bridge the gap for everyone who's, who's become, who's fallen in love with the Dave's of Thunder show. This is our little Quicky cast. You, though, tonight. You can tell I'm nervous, right? Game seven. How'll say you, sir? A blowout. What are you talking? The Lakers, by 15 at least. Not unlike the ebb and flow of every individual outside of Kobe Bryant who's played in this series. You know, Ray Allen, one game, you know, can't miss the next game.

He can't touch the rim, you know.

And, you know, Paul Pierce has been up and down, Gassall, and Artes.

By the way, if they lose this series, the Lakers, I'm not going to say it's the number one reason, but if they do end up losing tonight,

Ron Artecest is in the top three reasons why, right?

He had a terrific game Tuesday night, Ron Arndtest. That was like the one game. But he's really like a child. I mean, you know, he's a great defender. He's sort of like Dennis Rodman. That whole Laker team has filled at children.

Gassau is a child.
