00:00The Easy Bake Oven is back on the shelves.
00:03Hey, yo!
00:03Oh my god.
00:04We can do that in 2025?
00:06Yeah, we can do that in 2025.
00:08So this new addition is priced around $35.
00:11It swaps out the old Lightbulb heating system for a proper heating element and features a redesigned door.
00:20Oh, it's a good thing.
00:21To reduce the burns.
00:22People was getting burnt.
00:24I know, but...
00:24My sister had one.
00:26First of all, let's get to the core of the matter.
00:28First of all, you're baking with a Lightbulb.
00:30Correct.
00:31Correct.
00:33Don't spoil the fun, man.
00:35Imagine all this.
00:36I don't know how many different diseases I've eaten.
00:39Because my sister had one.
00:40Here, try this.
00:41Or the radiation.
00:42It's a little mushy.
00:43It's a little mushy.
00:44Yeah, so it's back on the shelves now.
00:47And I was going to ask you if you was going to get this for your grandbaby.
00:52But I think it's by law you've got to get it.
00:55By law?
00:55Yeah, that's right.
00:56By law, man.
00:57As Natalie's...
00:59This is an easy answer.
01:02If I don't get it, someone will.
01:03I was about to say, if you don't get it, I will get it, damn it.
01:06And she likes to bake with her dad.
01:08You know, she has a little roller that he bought her.
01:11Yeah, she's got to get one.
01:12That's true, so she's definitely got to...
01:13This is a gimme.
01:13She's got to get one.
01:14At least one.
01:15Every little girl got to have some type of easy makeup.
01:18Especially now that you're not cooking with a lightbulb.
01:20Well, but my thing about it is, it's a real heating element.
01:22Elma and I go, does the door lock?
01:25Because...
01:25Has to, right?
01:26Like, that feels like that's a hazard of source.
01:29It got a redesigned door to reduce burn risk.
01:32Okay, and I'm glad you said that, too.
01:34Reduce, but not eliminate, huh?
01:35I actually have some experience with this.
01:37Except my sister had one and whatever.
01:40Now, they had the doors on the easy makeup.
01:42I think they were glass.
01:43Help me out if I'm wrong.
01:45But the little handle, the little knobs were metal.
01:48Good.
01:48So, she would open it.
01:50Ow!
01:51Learning lessons.
01:52Now, I mean, I will like to say this, too.
01:56The first one was launched in 1963.
02:00Right.
02:00So, they probably trying to figure some stuff out.
02:02They didn't really think about the old safety thing and all that.
02:05They just threw something out there.
02:06Yeah.
02:07But, yep, it's back on the shelves.
02:09I wonder how fast these are going to go off the shelves.
02:11I think pretty fast.
02:12Pretty fast.
02:13Yeah.
02:13Faster than the Elmo one?
02:14I think parents and grandparents, you know, parents that grew up with them, grandparents
02:18that grew up with them, I think they're going to, yeah.
02:19Wait, you talking about it returning, it got recalled at some point, didn't it?
02:23Yeah, because of safety hazard.
02:24Yeah, that's why it's off the shelves.
02:27Yeah.
02:27That's why it's back now.
02:29They didn't.
02:30I mean, I wasn't lying.
02:31They fixed some things.
02:32Yeah.
02:33You know, ain't nobody say this thing was safe.
02:35It was just cool.
02:40From the metal part of the Easy Bake Oven, totally safe.
02:43Yeah.
02:45Yeah.
02:46It was wild, man.
02:48Yeah, ain't nobody say it was all safe.
02:49All right, you get her the Easy Bake Oven, I'll get her some oven mitts.
02:54We can't have the babies.
02:55Make sure that baby has some insurance, too, just in case.
02:58Unbelievable.
03:01It's the Mixtape and the Loot Sports Radio 610.
03:03So, I got to give a special shout-out to a guy by the name BoxaLegacy on Twitter.
03:10He's a listener.
03:11He always send us stuff.
03:12He always send me stuff for the Mixtape.
03:14And he sent me this.
03:18Apparently, it's an article or story from ABC 13 News here in Houston that Galveston is looking to use a $20 million AI-driven traffic system to ease the congestion.
03:33Oh, boy.
03:34That spikes up during the holidays, events, and all that stuff in Galveston.
03:38This is going to be so bad.
03:40Okay.
03:41All right.
03:41Tell me more.
03:43Yeah.
03:43So, I guess Galveston, I think I want to say, did I put it in here?
03:49So, Galveston is not, it don't really be that packed as far as, like, people that's living there on the day-to-day.
03:57Right.
03:57But on the weekend.
03:58Any weekend.
03:59Yeah.
04:00Holidays, you got the cruise ship days and all that stuff.
04:03Man.
04:04It spikes up a lot.
04:05When the cruises are loading up, whoo, Galveston can be a mess.
04:10Yeah.
04:10So, this AI system they plan on using, I guess they plan on using in that all 106 instances.
04:20Except, using the cameras to adjust the light in real time.
04:24Oh, boy.
04:25Oh, boy.
04:26And I guess they going to start with the one off the seawall before next summer.
04:31Seawall Boulevard.
04:32Yeah.
04:34Do you feel like this is a good idea to try this?
04:37Reggie?
04:37And they also going to have real people there as well.
04:41So, it's just not 100% using this AI program.
04:45But they're using this to try to, I guess, ease the time a little bit.
04:49Change the time up.
04:50Yeah.
04:50Basically, like a traffic cop.
04:51If you see a lot of cars on this one, you want to let them go through.
04:54Or game day coming up.
04:55Yeah.
04:55Let's just, you know, put somebody out there so we can kind of fix the light.
04:59But doing it with AI.
05:00This actually falls more in line with, not that I'm the ultimate arbiter, but things
05:06that feel like they are useful uses of this technology.
05:09Okay.
05:10So, I'm kind of right on it a little bit.
05:12I'm not against technology advancing.
05:14Like, I'm not a Neanderthal of sorts.
05:16It just feels like a lot of times we're using this technology for stuff that y'all should
05:19be able to look up.
05:20Just being lazy.
05:20Just being lazy.
05:21But this one, because what I was thinking to myself is, do the things, do the kind of
05:27systems that we already have built in for various other, you know, intersections, are
05:32those not, do those not help in these, like, sensors and stuff that are already in place,
05:36do those not help?
05:38And I could see how maybe not, especially if, like, one direction is really long and the
05:42other one has a few.
05:43Those sensors, I don't know if they would pick up the need.
05:44A lot of times it's based on time.
05:46Right.
05:46Yeah.
05:47And so, the idea that, okay, well, this, clearly, in this instance, we need something
05:51to acknowledge that there's more people here and we probably need to stay here to move
05:55more along, that does feel like that would need a higher level of processing.
05:58So, it does seem like it would count if you're dead, because just at first, the first thing
06:04I thought was, like, oh, God.
06:06But when I actually read on it, on what they're trying to do, I'm like, okay, that kind of
06:10makes sense a little bit, especially how busy you get on weekends, holidays, and the
06:16cruise ship days.
06:17Yeah.
06:18In theory, for sure.
06:19I just don't want to be there the first weekend they put it on.
06:22There you go.
06:22That was the secondary part where I was like, are we sure this is going to work?
06:25You got to work through the kinks a little bit, man.
06:26Are we sure this is going to work?
06:26It's like, you know, like, iPhone 3 versus iPhone 18, you know, they could work some
06:31kinks out there.
06:31Yeah.
06:32One thing that would make me real mad, though, was that the AI system's there and we
06:35still sitting here in traffic like, hey!
06:37What are we spending all this money for?
06:39Yeah.
06:40They're using up all our drinking water for us to not go?
06:42So you're not pissed off over this, right?
06:44I can't say that I am.
06:46Sorry to disappoint.
06:47Okay.
06:47Okay.
06:47That's cool.
06:48Shout out to Boxer Legacy for attacking me in that story.
06:52As I continue on the mixtape in the Loot Sports Radio 610, Lopez, I got to ask you a question,
06:58man.
06:58I am here for you.
07:00Did you ever lie for one of your kids to kind of keep them out of trouble at any point
07:05in your life where they was in a situation and you kind of lied for them to help them
07:12out?
07:14I'm positive I have.
07:15I feel like you might have lied to the wife.
07:17Maybe that more than anything, but I'm trying to think of a good example that would maybe be
07:21like funny or whatever, but like little stuff, I'm sure.
07:24Like, oh, no, he didn't.
07:25You know, whatever.
07:26But just to avoid the confrontation.
07:28But like something big, I'm trying to think of like maybe, you know, would be different.
07:33What about that?
07:34I want to see if you would do this.
07:35Would you?
07:36What would you do if one of your kids called you and said, and they told the cops that
07:43you were passed out?
07:44And so now you kind of got to go in acting mode a little bit because the cop is following
07:53to kind of confirm the story a little bit.
07:55Would you go all out to try to help them get through that little lie to avoid the ticket?
08:01That specific example, I would not.
08:03I would make him take the money.
08:05Oh, what an awful dad.
08:08I thought Lopez would be in on it.
08:10No, if it was just a specific, a ticket, you know, that's a lesson.
08:16You wouldn't do that for a ticket.
08:17You got to learn that lesson, man.
08:19You can't be speaking.
08:19Because it also has a safety factor in it.
08:21I bet it does.
08:22You know, there's a safety factor.
08:23I don't want my, and I'm thinking like when they were teenagers, you know, like if my 36
08:28year old, you know, 35 year old son called and said, hey, can you, sure, whatever, you
08:32know, but like as a teen, I was thinking like teenage dad, me, I'm like, you got to learn
08:37this lesson.
08:37You can't be speeding.
08:39Your life could be in danger.
08:39I hope your kids don't commit a murder and try to go to you.
08:42You're going to rat them out.
08:43Well, I would just stop that.
08:44I hope your kids don't commit a murder.
08:46Yeah, I would just stop right there.
08:47Yeah, you know what?
08:48Me too.
08:49Some parents be like, wait, wait, what?
08:51All right, hold on.
08:52Just come here.
08:53We're going to hide you.
08:54We're going to do this so you don't get caught.
08:56Again, it depends on the circus.
08:58But that specific one, I'd be like, nah, man.
09:00Okay.
09:00Well, a kid decided to play a prank on his parents by doing that very thing.
09:06Oh, no.
09:06So he was driving in the car in his dad's truck, and he decided to call his parents and
09:12told him that the cops pulled him over from speeding.
09:15And he told the cops that his dad pulled him over while he was speeding and told his parents
09:24that the cops decided to follow him home to confirm all of this.
09:29And this is how it sounded.
09:31Dan, I just got pulled over for a speeding ticket.
09:35What happened?
09:36Yeah, I just got pulled over.
09:37I told the cop, though, that I was speeding because you were passed out, and I was speeding
09:42to help you.
09:42Dude, were you?
09:44You were in my truck, too?
09:45Yeah.
09:47Well, now the cop's following me back home, and we're about to be back.
09:50You have to pretend to pass out or something.
09:53Oh, you're in check.
09:54Please.
09:55What's this bullshit?
09:56How far are you?
09:58How far are you?
09:59Like, two minutes.
09:59There's a cop behind me, too.
10:01Okay, okay, okay.
10:03Just pretend you, like, passed out mowing the lawn or something.
10:06All right, I'll do it.
10:06I'll do it.
10:09What do you say?
10:09Call him an ass?
10:10Yeah, a dumbass.
10:11Yeah, a dumbass.
10:13So now, kind of painting the picture, the parents are outside with the lawnmower right
10:19there.
10:19The dad is passed out in the grass.
10:22Faking it.
10:22Yeah, faking it, the mom is kind of holding him up and pouring water in his mouth to try
10:27to make it look like he done passed out.
10:29And here's the kid pulling up to them now with no cop behind him.
10:33Yeah.
10:33Just pulling up, recording, and this is what it sounded like.
10:38Dad, are you okay?
10:41Where are the caps?
10:42We're doing this for you, you dumb.
10:45Where are the caps?
10:48I don't see how this is.
10:49Are you f***ing with us?
10:50Yeah.
10:51You're an ass.
10:52Idiot.
10:52God, I'm not helping you again.
10:54I'm not helping you again.
10:55Ow, you're an idiot.
10:55I hurt my back.
10:56You're an f***.
10:57You finished the f***ing one.
11:01Freaking on.
11:02She said I hurt my back doing it.
11:05She's so mad.
11:06She said we're doing this for you, you dumb.
11:08I kind of want to be friends with the parents.
11:10I really do.
11:11They sound like they'll be fun to be around.
11:13You dumbass.
11:14Honestly, I'm surprised that he didn't catch no hands because they were already mad and
11:22then they're like, fine, we'll do it.
11:24So, they already were.
11:26It was clearly an imposition.
11:28The idea that all he got was you finish the lawn feels like he got out pretty easy there.
11:33Yeah, so you wouldn't do that for any of your kids.
11:37Well, I mean, probably.
11:40At this age, probably.
11:41But when they were teenagers now, you got to learn your lesson.
11:45So, you'll lay out in the grass like you passed out with jam pouring water in your mouth?
11:49Sure.
11:50As long as it has to be moon water, though.
11:52By the way, people were asking for an update on the beaver moon water.
11:55Yeah, it was the, what was it called?
11:59The beaver moon?
11:59Beaver moon.
12:00The beaver moon water.
12:01Why do I remember it?
12:02It was, I just threw a blank, but I remember the all-time record is 24, 23, and 1.
12:07That's the things I talk about right now.
12:09Sure.
12:11But, yes, invigorating.
12:14Absolutely invigorating.
12:15The beaver moon water, yes.
12:17Okay, okay.
12:19The fact that his statement, the words that came out of your mouth was,
12:23an absolutely invigorating the beaver moon water.
12:26Those are words that were said on FCC airwaves.
12:30Well, it's true.
12:31Yeah.
12:31Yeah, all right, I'll get y'all out of here on this.
12:34It's the Mixtape and the Loot Sports Radio 610.
12:36I got to give a special salute to Chase.
12:41A bank?
12:43No, it's not a bank.
12:44Good, because I don't think they need salutes.
12:46Yeah, so a fire broke out at a home in Long Island, New York,
12:50and ended up spreading to two different houses.
12:53But Chase saved the day and potentially saved some lives.
12:57Look at the flames.
12:58Two houses were on fire.
13:00Five people were in danger, and this little smooshy started barking,
13:03running all over, and saved the day.
13:05Saboteur wasn't home at the time, but his 28-year-old son was upstairs.
13:08My son had to jump out that window onto the roof and get down.
13:12I heard the dog woke them up, you know, the people downstairs,
13:15the landlord and his wife, his fiancée up, and then they woke up my son.
13:19I think he called them on the phone and woke them up.
13:20Little two-year-old Chase, that's the dog's name, is only 12 pounds,
13:25and he is a mini golden doodle.
13:27Another fantastic reminder that dogs are awesome, but so are smoke detectors.
13:32Assistant Chief Hadrick Ray ran in to help save a couple in their 80s next door.
13:37I asked him, are they out, are they out, and then we seen that the one was in a walker.
13:41So me and him ran in, we grabbed him out,
13:43and then the Long Beach Police Department helped with the second victim that was inside of that house.
13:49But the big story was that the dog, Chase, actually beat the smoke alarm going off.
13:54The people downstairs, the dog and homeowners, initially, they thought there was an intruder.
13:58The most important thing to tell people, you've got to have a what?
14:01Smoke detector.
14:02You've got to have a smoke detector.
14:03Or a peg.
14:04Or both.
14:05Salute to Chase, man.
14:06Man, Chase is a hero.
14:07He says some lies, man.
14:08He did, and first of all.
14:10And he beat the smoke detector, too.
14:12Yes.
14:13Faster than the smoke detector.
14:14Man.
14:14Man, he got into action quick.
14:16There's no question.
14:22That is a good mark.
14:23And actually, there's no question that this, in fact, happened in Long Island, as they like to say.
14:29Oh, yeah, just up the accents.
14:30All the accents.
14:31Yeah.
14:31And Chase, little known fact, did not have a mullet.
14:35Yeah, he didn't look as fly as Jackson, though.
14:38The thing that's funny, though, is obviously social media-wise, you have stories like this,
14:43and then you have stories of, like, or, like, videos of people trying to prank their dog
14:47to see if their dog will react if they, like, fall out or if there's robbery, and the dogs don't.
14:53And I wonder, for everybody listening that has a dog or any other pet, is your pet a chase,
14:57or is your pet, you know, I'll just hang out.
15:00Somebody else will hang out.
15:01Yeah, I know for sure if an intruder came in the house, my dog would probably just be laying there.
15:07Jackson's like, that's not my business.
15:08Is it a chase, or is it a Jackson?
15:11No, for real.
15:12I'll never forget.
15:13I was watching the news years ago, and they showed a robbery going on in, like, a house intruder.
15:18And it was a freaking dog, and it was like a Labrador or something like that.
15:23And this dude fighting for his life, there's, like, two dudes in there, he trying to fight both of them.
15:28And this Labrador sitting there with his tail wagging, just looking as happy as could be.
15:32Yeah, I was just like, oh, you got to get another dog, man.
15:36That dude was fighting for his life.
15:38I think the guys had some guns and all that stuff, and he just all over the bed.
15:42And he's just sitting there wagging his tail, man.
15:45I'm like, oh, man.
