Speaker 1: the audience, dudes, Mr West of the four Old. But
Speaker 1: as you would know being a radio professional, all you
Speaker 1: need is one that's actually not true. That's all you know,
Speaker 1: that's actually not true. If you find, if you find
Speaker 1: the right one, all you need is on. Now I
Speaker 1: just had the one percent, but they are the female contingency,
Speaker 1: so it's it's all good. You live in your own
Speaker 1: parallel dimension away from reality. Yeah, at least I have
Speaker 1: self away about that, right, Yeah, you might want to

Speaker 1: Twilight Zone, and I used to watch that. There was
Speaker 1: nothing else that was good. Yeah, yeah, and I did
Speaker 1: live that. That cult horror movie. We all did The
Speaker 1: Last Man on Earth when the COVID hit last year,
Speaker 1: and I thought I was an a Vincent Price movie
Speaker 1: driving home and I thought there was There was no
Speaker 1: one else. I could have parked my car sideways on
Speaker 1: the one thirty four freeway there in Burbank, and uh,
Speaker 1: nobody was coming in either direction. It was wild man,
Speaker 1: other where did everyone go? No cars in the road
Speaker 1: and no toilet paper in the grocery stores? How about that?
Speaker 1: No toilet paper, no disposable white snow, none of that
Speaker 1: in a world? Man? What a world? What a world
Speaker 1: we lived through? It's crazy, crazy crazy. Uh So, before
Speaker 1: we get to the mailbag, cameo, cameo, cameo, cameo, cameo, cameo, cameo,
Speaker 1: cameo dot com if you want to personalize video message,
Speaker 1: we've done a few of these for p ones. If
Speaker 1: you're a super fan, or your your dad's a fan,
Speaker 1: or you're probably not your mom, but your uncle. Somebody's
Speaker 1: a big fan. Uh and when I surprise him love
Speaker 1: to to do a money. We try to make them
Speaker 1: as unique and original and uh, you know the good
Speaker 1: thing about it's a it's a blessing. And a curse
Speaker 1: about cameo because I don't get a lot of cameo
Speaker 1: request But when we get them, because I don't get
Speaker 1: a lot, I can personalize the cameo christ Moore, where
Speaker 1: if I got a ton of them, I would just
Speaker 1: be like an assembly line. But you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: like that. I'm not like the soup Nazi who's making
Speaker 1: two dollars a year doing cameo. I'm not um. But anyway,
Speaker 1: so you can check that out cameo dot com and
Speaker 1: guesscon's on there. He's actually done a cameo. I did
Speaker 1: it a cameo for you. What's the VIA four files
Speaker 1: the beach and I will use that when the lawsuit
Speaker 1: comes in. I will use that as evidence. What about
Speaker 1: the recall? The recall? Yeah, when you get recall? Are
Speaker 1: you talking about? You know we got we got three
Speaker 1: recalls pending here in California. One of them was a
Speaker 1: nonrelative with the same last name got the governor. And
Speaker 1: the governor is under some fire. Now, how about that
Speaker 1: heat he's got it's all the Republicans fault counter to
Speaker 1: the governor's all the races. Oh yeah, what about the mistress?
Speaker 1: That's uh, that's the Republicans fault. He if they hadn't
Speaker 1: been Republicans, he wouldn't have screwed around his wife. Clearly,
Speaker 1: come on, please yeah, unreal, unreal anyway, all right, So
Speaker 1: these are actual questions from actual listeners. Here the mailbag
Speaker 1: submitted on the Facebook page. The facebook page there, you
Speaker 1: can check that out and a lot of comments about
Speaker 1: you gas gun and uh. Keith says Gagon sucks. Can't
Speaker 1: even put the podcast asked in the right order? There?
Speaker 1: There was that there. How how lazy of a piece
Speaker 1: of ship do you need to be to complaint about
Speaker 1: the order of a podcast going from four to one
Speaker 1: or one to four, like I put, I understand the
Speaker 1: complaint because it's it's a it's a convenience issue. It's
Speaker 1: not if you put them in the right order. You
Speaker 1: play podcast one hour one and then it just rolls
Speaker 1: smoothly into our two hour, three hour four. You get
Speaker 1: the full experience without having if you can do the opposite,
Speaker 1: and then you're hearing the show in reverse. But it
Speaker 1: doesn't matter anyway, because you're stuck listening to these stupid
Speaker 1: ads that we have to put in front and in
Speaker 1: the back, in the middle. You call them stupid ads.
Speaker 1: I call them very important pieces of real estate audio
Speaker 1: real estate. I call them stupid. Wow. Yeah, disrespect. But anyways,
Speaker 1: if if you are, if you're that lazy to not
Speaker 1: be able to push a button to go to the
Speaker 1: next episode, you've got bigger issues you think about it.
Speaker 1: I mean, you might want to look, you know, down
Speaker 1: below at that gut, get out a little bit, do
Speaker 1: some card, you eat a little bit better if you're
Speaker 1: bitching about podcast. So how hard is it just to
Speaker 1: put the thing in the right or you gotta put
Speaker 1: them up there anyway, So why not just do them
Speaker 1: in the right order? Why is it so hard to
Speaker 1: do that? You blaming You're blaming the victim. No, I'm victim.
Speaker 1: There's what you are. They're playing the victim card. I mean,
Speaker 1: this is like, that's a crime against the podcast listener.
Speaker 1: I just think it's more of an indictment on some
Speaker 1: of the militia members that are really feudial with what
Speaker 1: they're trying to do right now. And um talks about
Speaker 1: the betas that you have on your on your show,
Speaker 1: It's uh, that's unfortunate, but you know, it's the world
Speaker 1: we live in right now. You have a bunch of
Speaker 1: boot liquors and suck ups and sicko fans and people
Speaker 1: that just really can't get abound, you know, everyday life
Speaker 1: without having to suck on your tit. Yeah, it's reality.
Speaker 1: You're really handling the fact that everyone hates you. Well,
Speaker 1: you're embracing I like that. Good. You're not. You're not
Speaker 1: letting it get to you. I'm not. It's a death
Speaker 1: defying act of court, like they said back in the circus,
Speaker 1: is right. I thought I thought it worked well. I
Speaker 1: thought I pitched two perfect games. Like if you had
Speaker 1: to compare these performances, those eight strong innings, shut out ball,
Speaker 1: gave up a couple of it's no runs. I was strong.
Speaker 1: It's always nice when you can go into work and
Speaker 1: know that I have your back, isn't it? Yeah? It
Speaker 1: reminds me of the quote from from Costanza. Right, it's
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's not a lie if you believe it. Right,
Speaker 1: it's not a lie if you believe in it's certainly
Speaker 1: some truth can truth truth in that for you? All Right,
Speaker 1: let's get to the amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing, amazing questions
Speaker 1: sent in by the Mallard Militia. AMM it the blind
Speaker 1: Seahawk fan Olimpia Washington says this is for gag on.
Speaker 1: Uh do you hate the militia? All right? Uh? He says,
Speaker 1: why why do you hate the militia? And then also,
Speaker 1: what's your favorite ice cream? Talking about a non sequitor
Speaker 1: from Emmett. I think I think we've had this conversation
Speaker 1: a few times. It's a three way time for me.
Speaker 1: Rocky Road cookies and cream and mitt and chocolate chip
Speaker 1: mint because my grandfather was a huge mint fan grown
Speaker 1: up in the day, so when I don't know what
Speaker 1: they were called, but those little mint candies there were
Speaker 1: size of like a little square. Yeah, yeah, those are good.
Speaker 1: Those chocolate you talking about the chocolate ones that the minute,
Speaker 1: Yeah those are solid. My grandfather used to have those
Speaker 1: over when we come over as kids, and I used
Speaker 1: to grow up on on mint. So yeah, I was
Speaker 1: a huge, huge, five big three. I've got cookie dough.
Speaker 1: That's good. Love love the cookie dough. I can't get
Speaker 1: enough of the cookie dough. I like strawberry, but I
Speaker 1: also love mintship. Yeah, I also love Minship. My dad
Speaker 1: was a big Midship fan, so I feel like I'm
Speaker 1: honoring my dad when I eat mit chip and I'm
Speaker 1: getting fat at the same time, So it's a win win.
Speaker 1: Didn't I think it was Anthony and Annaheim? Wasn't he
Speaker 1: talking about because you were mentioning ice cream sandwiches and
Speaker 1: I think, oh, yeah, I love ice cream sandwich. The
Speaker 1: two big oversized chocolate chip cookies with the vanilla ice
Speaker 1: cream in the middle. Amazing. Yeah, it's a great There's
Speaker 1: a there's actually a place that's unfortunately's west of the
Speaker 1: four oh five that makes an amazing ice cream sandwich.
Speaker 1: There's a confectionery over there. I kinta, you know, I
Speaker 1: don't know the name of it off the top of
Speaker 1: my head, but I'll get it to you. We should
Speaker 1: go there sometime down that I will travel west of
Speaker 1: the four oh five to get that ice cream sandwich.
Speaker 1: Robbins back in the day used to have those those
Speaker 1: giant ice cream sandwiches and I get them every time.
Speaker 1: I remember when the ice cream cake became a thing
Speaker 1: a million years ago. This was a big deal in
Speaker 1: the Mallor household. My mom was like, we gotta get
Speaker 1: the ice cream cake, you know, So it was like
Speaker 1: a big deal. And they really didn't master the ice
Speaker 1: cream cake at Baskin Robbin's right away. They were not.
Speaker 1: You know, they've gotten better over the years. Let's say that.
Speaker 1: How about that the quality has improved for the ice
Speaker 1: cream cake, as you would expect with any product, over time,
Speaker 1: things improved. All right? This is from Mike from Courtland,
Speaker 1: New York, home of the Smith Corona Typewriter. It's like
Speaker 1: a bad sitcom from Courtland, New York, home of the
Speaker 1: Smith Corona Typewriter. Not that they make those anymore, but
Speaker 1: still all right? Uh, he says, did you ever consider coaching?
Speaker 1: And if so, which sport? Well? Hell, yes, of course.
Speaker 1: Uh will be a great play caller in football, great
Speaker 1: play caller in football, offensive play caller. I'd be a
Speaker 1: good head coach. You imagine me coming out giving pep talks,
Speaker 1: guest on man, I fire you up every week. I
Speaker 1: gotta drag you in here by your hair and but
Speaker 1: but think of the Mallard pep talk. I do these
Speaker 1: anyway for free, Uh, I get paid. But on the radio,
Speaker 1: I get rob Ross speeches, right win one for the Mallard.
Speaker 1: I pontificate and blow viaton, have all those inspirational speeches.
Speaker 1: It's like my man Victor break back in the day
Speaker 1: giving high coups. I can give high coups to football teams,
Speaker 1: or basketball teams, or baseball teams, maybe more of a
Speaker 1: coach than a coordinator, because you know, after the end
Speaker 1: of the first half, you need to make some in
Speaker 1: game adjustments. I don't know you when you go out
Speaker 1: of script, he gets a little gets a little wobbly.
Speaker 1: Just oh, it happens all the time. We go off,
Speaker 1: We we go out and out about there. Guesscan and uh,
Speaker 1: you know we changed on the flight. Unfortunately, in the
Speaker 1: overnight there's not a lot that happens other than people
Speaker 1: getting arrested. I can see it used to be trades,
Speaker 1: but then the who's that? Rachel Nichols complained that the
Speaker 1: trade deadline was at midnight, so she ruined our fun
Speaker 1: because she wanted her sleep. Rachel Nichols at ESPN. The
Speaker 1: NBA listened to her because she complained, it's not fair
Speaker 1: we have to stay until midnight to watch trades. Oh
Speaker 1: my god. I can see more as a baseball skipper
Speaker 1: than anything else, maybe like a Jack McKeon, like you'd
Speaker 1: be sitting on the pine smoking a cigar. I can
Speaker 1: see that, maybe drinking like some grape welches. I can
Speaker 1: see I can give me a hipper. In baseball, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think why could would be like little sort of
Speaker 1: back and day waddling out to the mound that I
Speaker 1: can pitching change and you know, why not? What the
Speaker 1: hell talking ship to a reporter or two for some
Speaker 1: bad pub Yeah, baseball managers are famous for that. J
Speaker 1: Bone from Portland, Maine rights and he says, what's the
Speaker 1: drunkest you have ever been? And did you do anything
Speaker 1: really stupid and or funny? Well, I've told the story,
Speaker 1: J Bone. I'm not a big drinker. But back in
Speaker 1: my younger days in radio, we were very depressed. One night,
Speaker 1: it was back in the nineties, there was a trial
Speaker 1: sport Women's Olympic hockey which, for some reason the program
Speaker 1: director decided that we needed a broadcast this game, which
Speaker 1: preempted my night show. Uh, and so the boss as
Speaker 1: I you know, i'll repeat the stories. I remember the
Speaker 1: boss said, hey, uh, you guys might be called and
Speaker 1: you probably won't be called in, but just stay in
Speaker 1: the area, stay in the neighborhood where the radio station is.
Speaker 1: You go out, have a dinner or whatever, and we
Speaker 1: probably won't need you. But just be in the area. Well,
Speaker 1: we'll we'll call you. This is in the days before
Speaker 1: text messaging. We'll call you if you have to come in.
Speaker 1: I said, fine, all right. Uh So it was the
Speaker 1: Ben and Dave show. Myself and Dave, Mark Smith and
Speaker 1: a couple of other guys went to Adults in Burbank,
Speaker 1: which was across the street that was the k Rock building.
Speaker 1: We were the Kiss FM building right near Warner Brothers
Speaker 1: there and all those radio stations have relocated. But anyway,
Speaker 1: we walked over to where Adults is or was, uh
Speaker 1: and uh we ordered the chicken fingers and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: we somebody said, hey, why don't we have a couple
Speaker 1: of pops. So we had a couple of pops and
Speaker 1: we kept drinking and watching whatever was on TV, and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, time kind of like we lost track of time.
Speaker 1: And then we gotta we gotta call around ten o'clock, uh,
Speaker 1: saying hey, I need you to come in and do
Speaker 1: like forty five minutes of radio. Um. We were all
Speaker 1: like ship faced at this point. We were we were
Speaker 1: we were pretty messed up, but we uh, we walked
Speaker 1: across the street and of course didn't dry. We walked
Speaker 1: across the street to the radio station, got in there,
Speaker 1: and then proceeded to use all kinds of foul language
Speaker 1: because we didn't realize what I did. I I cursed
Speaker 1: all like it was. It was a nightmare, it was
Speaker 1: a disaster. But fortunately nobody heard it because it was
Speaker 1: following a women's trial hockey game in the Olympics, which
Speaker 1: I'm convinced no one was listening to on the radio
Speaker 1: because it was tape delane, which makes it even better.
Speaker 1: That's good, That's really good, you guess. And I told
Speaker 1: some stories about that. Yeah, I um. I had this
Speaker 1: bad experience with a bunch of my buddies when I
Speaker 1: lived in San Diego. It was a tradition you never
Speaker 1: let the guys find out when your birthday it is,
Speaker 1: because they would beat the shift out of you. Well,
Speaker 1: my buddies found out my birthday, and on my twenty
Speaker 1: fifth birthday, we went to this Mexican spot in Mission
Speaker 1: Valley down in San Diego and we were doing shots.
Speaker 1: I don't I forget the name of it, but basically
Speaker 1: it's when you put tequila, you put hot sauce in tequila.
Speaker 1: So I was drinking those at this Mexican spot and
Speaker 1: I had six of those within a thirty minutes, and
Speaker 1: it was yeah. So I went into the bathroom, threw
Speaker 1: it up, came back out, continued to drink, and then
Speaker 1: we went down to Pacific Beach and I was trying
Speaker 1: to be on alert because I figured there's gonna be
Speaker 1: a point where these guys started kicking my ass. It
Speaker 1: didn't come, and we were like a big crowd of people.
Speaker 1: I started talking to a couple of girls and I remember,
Speaker 1: in a specific conversation with this female, I'm getting her number.
Speaker 1: And as soon as I get her number, one of
Speaker 1: my buddies puts me in a headlock and they dragged
Speaker 1: me out in the middle of San Diego's like Pacific
Speaker 1: Beach area Rapa Garnett. Garnet's like a main street in
Speaker 1: PB and they started beating the ship out of me
Speaker 1: in the middle of the street, and I'm they took
Speaker 1: my belt off and stripped my pants down. They started
Speaker 1: whipping me with my own belt. Ben I was completely defenseless.
Speaker 1: I was so fucked up. I had no chance of
Speaker 1: defending myself. Wow, it was pretty bad. Animals. Do you
Speaker 1: hang out with stuff? But well, remember the immortal words
Speaker 1: of Homer J. Simpson to alcohol the cause of and
Speaker 1: the solution to all of life's problems. On the Great
Speaker 1: Quotes of All Time of Homer Simpson. There and you
Speaker 1: know you've you've mocked the show and you said, you know,
Speaker 1: I've heard you in the past say there's only drunk
Speaker 1: people that listen to the show. But guess what, guess what,
Speaker 1: guess Here's here's a fun factor, right. I learned this
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, at any given time, zero point
Speaker 1: seven percent of the global population is drunk. That means
Speaker 1: we have a potential audience of at least fifty million
Speaker 1: people at any time we're on the radio. About that
Speaker 1: fifty million drunk people they estimate at any given time.
Speaker 1: So I'd take an audience of fifty million. I take
Speaker 1: an audience at five million. I'd be very happy with that.
Speaker 1: And you're amplified because the six affiliates and then the
Speaker 1: armed forces, that is an insane you know, we're in
Speaker 1: the business, so it's big for us, but that is
Speaker 1: an insane number of affiliates. I was at Fox Sports
Speaker 1: Radio when we went on in Bingham to New York
Speaker 1: on a on a test run dry run Bingham to
Speaker 1: New York, Pittsburgh, where are two affiliates? As I remember
Speaker 1: the early days of Fox Sports, like the first couple
Speaker 1: of weeks the network was on the air, Um, they
Speaker 1: wanted to work out the kinks before we went on
Speaker 1: other radio stations. It took us a long time to
Speaker 1: get into markets like Boston. We were not on in
Speaker 1: San Francisco for a while. The bigger top ten markets
Speaker 1: it took a long time to get into. So it's
Speaker 1: it's pretty cool that the network is matured and now
Speaker 1: has six hundred affiliates. Wild as an insane, I mean
Speaker 1: I when I was you wanted to be the guy
Speaker 1: on the radio. I just want to be on one
Speaker 1: radio station. I just want to be on one radio station.
Speaker 1: And that's it. And it's it's insane. It's your head
Speaker 1: just spins when you think about But I try not
Speaker 1: to think about it. I try to think the only
Speaker 1: people listening are beer drinking Brian and Half Pint, and
Speaker 1: that's it. And no one else is listening. I'm only
Speaker 1: talking to beer drinking Brian and Half Pint. I'm doing
Speaker 1: the show for beer drinking Brian and Half Pint, and
Speaker 1: that's it. There's no one else from your bad with
Speaker 1: the jamazone. Don't be jealous, Okay, alright, Dan, in Chicago,
Speaker 1: I got Mallard family in Chicago. The Mallard family, part
Speaker 1: of it roots in the Windy City, uh Dan writes,
Speaker 1: insists for eight days a week you coop a loop.
Speaker 1: Eddie and Roberto are in the air everywhere, even Gascon
Speaker 1: as well. I have been listening since last year. Keep
Speaker 1: up the great job, Bet. If steroid users are inducted
Speaker 1: in the Baseball Hall of Fame, why can't Pete Rose?
Speaker 1: That's my question. Well, Dan, we've answered this question before,
Speaker 1: but you're new to the show relatively do The answer
Speaker 1: is because of Bart Giamanti and the passing of Bart Giamanti,
Speaker 1: and if Bart, who had a heart attack, if he
Speaker 1: had survived that and lived on, I'm be confident that
Speaker 1: Pete would have been allowed, at least back on the
Speaker 1: ballot to be voted into the Hall of Fame. But
Speaker 1: it is crazy to think that many regional baseball networks
Speaker 1: will be named after a casino shortly or some already have.
Speaker 1: And Baseball has partnerships with gambling there in the gambling business.
Speaker 1: But at that time, Pete Rose obviously was not you
Speaker 1: know he was banned and but that the main reason
Speaker 1: is because of Bart g Money died and that that's
Speaker 1: that's taboo. You can't allow Pete in the Hall of Fame.
Speaker 1: Pete also has some major character issues, but so do
Speaker 1: a lot of people in the Halliday. So yeah, I
Speaker 1: remember when he was on Fox though, doing the Baseball
Speaker 1: I was really he was pretty good. It was good.
Speaker 1: It was pretty good for a baseball commentary that was
Speaker 1: baseball guys suck. He was pretty good. Yeah. Jose from
Speaker 1: Nork Houses, my name is Jose, and I agree with
Speaker 1: everything you say, Lord Benn. How about that for respect?
Speaker 1: Lord Ben is pretty good. Yeah, David Gagan sucks on
Speaker 1: the show. He is soft. Like the NBA players. Bring
Speaker 1: Brian Finley in cancel gascons from Jose in Northern California.
Speaker 1: Big fan of your work. Northern California. They don't know
Speaker 1: ship about southern California. So right, uh, yeah, don't call
Speaker 1: it no Cal. Don't call you get upset when you
Speaker 1: say no, call yeah. People in San Francisco, haye, when
Speaker 1: you say San fran they hate Frisco. That's oh, I
Speaker 1: I said, Frisco went to Oh my god, dude, I
Speaker 1: had a play by play guy for one of the
Speaker 1: teams in the Bay Area, who's a friend of mine.
Speaker 1: Send me a message? Is nasty messages? You don't say
Speaker 1: frisco very upset. John the jailer in Allen Town p A. Right,
Speaker 1: So John, this is John the jail the guy's alleged
Speaker 1: I remember we heard the story. John saved the guy's
Speaker 1: life there and just another day on the job, he says.
Speaker 1: Bening Gascon a k a. The Salamander going full heel
Speaker 1: on the overnight show, he says, was comedy gold. No,
Speaker 1: do not encourage that, John the Jailer, do not encourage that.
Speaker 1: Is there any way to get back in the good
Speaker 1: graces of the Mallard Militia after that performance? Or has
Speaker 1: Gus gone gone complete? Hollywood? Well that's a great question. Uh.
Speaker 1: And Jess and you shown no effort to bury the
Speaker 1: hatchet with the Mallard Militia. Well, I think this is
Speaker 1: because you specifically have said, never ever apologize, never bend
Speaker 1: the knee. You just put your head down and you
Speaker 1: drive right through the car crash. No, but you could
Speaker 1: have a peace offering, right and and the Mallew Militia
Speaker 1: will be willing to let bygones be bygones. You don't
Speaker 1: have to go like Coop and smoke the peace pipe
Speaker 1: and all that. You didn't have to do that, that
Speaker 1: whole thing. But they'd be willing to wipe the slate clean.
Speaker 1: You obviously got off to a bad, bad start here.
Speaker 1: I'd be willing to mediate if you want. I can mediate,
Speaker 1: mitigate the damage, patch up your differences with the Malley militia.
Speaker 1: There's only a few people that have an issue with me.
Speaker 1: I don't have an issue with anybody. Nine percent. You've
Speaker 1: admitted it. There's only one percent of the women that
Speaker 1: that think you're apparently that's your words, not mine. The
Speaker 1: rest of it's a tinder box. I'm all right with it,
Speaker 1: all right, there you go. You have gun Hollywood, bad
Speaker 1: job by you. Shame on you, all right. Sarah in
Speaker 1: Minnesota sent a couple of messages. She's a big fan
Speaker 1: of me. I don't know about that. She says, I
Speaker 1: get a lot of laughs these days. Uh, she said,
Speaker 1: it's hard to get a lot of laughs these days. Rather,
Speaker 1: but she loved the Mallard Odyssey song made my day.
Speaker 1: Hats off to just Josh and Jay Scoop really well
Speaker 1: done a gentleman. She's a huge uh David Bowie fan.
Speaker 1: And and there's a little turntable shrine. She in fact,
Speaker 1: she say she said she named her dog Bowie about that.
Speaker 1: There you go. Uh, And she she says she's not
Speaker 1: gonna send it. She's been sending me some third rail stories,
Speaker 1: trying to get us to go down a third round.
Speaker 1: What the fox send him to me? Then, damn it? Yeah,
Speaker 1: but she had sent the last couple of she sent
Speaker 1: after we had already started recording the podcast, so I
Speaker 1: didn't get until after the podcast, and they're kind of
Speaker 1: dated now. But she says things have gotten worse in Minnesota. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be bad. I feel bad, you know, for
Speaker 1: our friends in the in the Twin Cities because this
Speaker 1: this trial it's gonna be taking place. Pretty much any
Speaker 1: outcome from that trial, guilt innocence, is going to lead
Speaker 1: to more chaos. Yeah. Like, I don't see a scenario
Speaker 1: where there is no I hope I'm wrong, but I
Speaker 1: don't see a scenario where there's no I mean, if convicted, uh,
Speaker 1: they'll say not enough, uh, not convicted more the same acquitted,
Speaker 1: they'll say, here we go again. So I don't see
Speaker 1: a scenario where there's not you know, hoodlum is running
Speaker 1: around burning things. I hope I'm wrong. Well, and just
Speaker 1: on top of that is the billions of damn billions
Speaker 1: of dollars worth of damage in that city alone. The
Speaker 1: taxpayers are are footing the bill for that. You've had
Speaker 1: small businesses and meeting size that have have bolted the
Speaker 1: city just fucking awful. Be sure to catch live editions

Speaker 1: Sarah says, in the Mallard Museum, I think she meant
Speaker 1: Mallard Militia. But she said in Mallard Museum, I wish
Speaker 1: there was a Mallard museum. Uh did you find anything
Speaker 1: that made you laugh? At ye? Maybe she's referencing my
Speaker 1: father's house. I think she's referencing the the house the museum.
Speaker 1: I think that's what she's getting at here. Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: just a volume, the sheer volume, Sarah, of stuff like
Speaker 1: we went to a family reunion in like nineteen seventies
Speaker 1: something late seventies, and they still had like the buttons
Speaker 1: and the hats they had saved from the family. I
Speaker 1: mean just just like just insane that the amount of
Speaker 1: stuff that was was kept, the knickknacks and things like that.
Speaker 1: But you know, actually laugh, I think I guess some
Speaker 1: of my old Little league stuff that I had not
Speaker 1: seen in years, I didn't know it's still existed, that
Speaker 1: kind of stuff. She says. Her dad is eighties six
Speaker 1: has warned suspenders forever, and she says she has a
Speaker 1: picture of him with Carl Eller, Minnesota sports legend, when
Speaker 1: he is wearing his suspenders, so she wanted to pass
Speaker 1: that on. Yeah, my dad wore suspenders all the time.
Speaker 1: When I get dressed up. From now on, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: honor my pops with the suspenders there. And yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I like him to classy up a little b yeah,
Speaker 1: a little bit. Uh. She says, I listened to your
Speaker 1: fifth hour, uh, and you mentioned that you've been trying
Speaker 1: to interview Paul Allen, voice of the Vikings. He is
Speaker 1: an awesome voice, and I always have him on the
Speaker 1: radio and mute the TV for the games. But She
Speaker 1: says Sarah that she stopped listening to his k Fan
Speaker 1: show from nine to noon because because he had Mike
Speaker 1: Florio on on Tuesdays and they had Motivation Monday every
Speaker 1: other Monday with Kevin Warren really gross and gaggable or
Speaker 1: to Sarah, she also though filled me and she says
Speaker 1: that that Paul. She doesn't think Paul Allen would get
Speaker 1: the show, but I thought you reached out to him,
Speaker 1: to him, did he does? He's had hazard ye know, yeah,
Speaker 1: he I mean he knows you. And yeah, the reason
Speaker 1: why he doesn't hate me, right, No, No, the reason
Speaker 1: why we couldn't get him on was he was actually
Speaker 1: doing some commentary for horse races. Yeah, he was at
Speaker 1: the track in Minnesota. We couldn't get him on. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't know if he was actually calling it for
Speaker 1: TV or radio or if he was actually the MC
Speaker 1: for the for the races, but yeah, he was. He
Speaker 1: was busy all all summer long. Yeah. And then she
Speaker 1: filled me in on our favorite Minnesota Twins beat writer
Speaker 1: is no longer a Minnesota Twins beat writer. Lavelle Neil,
Speaker 1: the Great lavel E Neil Minnesota is a mallor militia
Speaker 1: guy and he's tweeted the show. He listens, I guess
Speaker 1: he's got insomnia. And she tells us that he's now
Speaker 1: a Collamus. He's been promoted. He's a columnist for the
Speaker 1: Star Tribute and that's a big gig. So good for Lavelle.
Speaker 1: We're happy for you. I hope you still stay up
Speaker 1: late at night and listen to our show. And if
Speaker 1: you want to write a column about the Mallar militia, Lavell,
Speaker 1: I'd be willing to give you some quotes. I just
Speaker 1: want to throw that out there. You know, like Minnesota, Man,
Speaker 1: let me tell you something. We've been on a lot
Speaker 1: of states. We do very well in Boston over the years.
Speaker 1: We've done great there, l A, Seattle, Houston, Las Vegas.
Speaker 1: But Minnesota, man, that that Minnesota Twin Cities market amazing.
Speaker 1: I mean, you guys have been great. You get the show,
Speaker 1: you support the show, your loyal and man, is that
Speaker 1: a tremendous, tremendous set up there in in Minnesota. They
Speaker 1: love their sports radio, man, they love it. They do.
Speaker 1: Chris and Marre Coca to Iowa says, what is your
Speaker 1: Mallard maneuver to get out of the doghouse with the wife.
Speaker 1: Can you get Cowherd on the podcast? Well, surely he
Speaker 1: would help out a co worker, all right, Now, guess
Speaker 1: God claims to be a friend of Colin Coward. He
Speaker 1: likes to brag about how he's had drinks and meals
Speaker 1: with Coward. I've only had one one interaction with Coward.
Speaker 1: We actually I've had a couple. I knew him a
Speaker 1: little I do a little bit when he was at ESPN.
Speaker 1: Uh and I had actually gone back to interview for
Speaker 1: a job in Bristol and they brought me in and
Speaker 1: I met Cowhard then years ago, and then I met
Speaker 1: him at the golfing and uh, he was very nice,
Speaker 1: very polite. Uh. I think there's no chance he would
Speaker 1: come on this podcast. I think there's zero chance. But
Speaker 1: guess Karen, why don't you, why don't you kind of
Speaker 1: grease him up a little bit and see if you
Speaker 1: can get him on here. I'll see what I can do.
Speaker 1: Tell him we'll just talk about his career, and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about radio and you know, the whole thing I love.
Speaker 1: He loves talking about that. He loves talking shot. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, his show is fantastic. I don't know if
Speaker 1: you get a chance to listen to it, and that's
Speaker 1: an overnight show for me, I'm sleeping on. That's a
Speaker 1: good show. You should stay up and listen. I see
Speaker 1: the clips though, that guy fun House put clips. Big
Speaker 1: fun House is not a fan of manipulating his work
Speaker 1: a little a bit. I don't know why. And campaign
Speaker 1: he's saving certain clips and then putting them out there.
Speaker 1: But fun House man, he's he's locked and loaded. Yeah,
Speaker 1: guy's a beast. He's got receipts. Yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: how he does it because I don't know what he's
Speaker 1: got going on. I don't think he's making money with that.
Speaker 1: I know he used to work the Third Chef. He
Speaker 1: used to be a Mallard militia guy, and he listened
Speaker 1: to the show, and right, I think he still stays
Speaker 1: up crazy hours. But those are shows. Those are daytime shows.
Speaker 1: But didn't w f A n Funk with him because
Speaker 1: of his feed. They didn't like that he was taking
Speaker 1: shots at friends. But that was Mike Francessa. But now
Speaker 1: I heard he's on good terms with w f A
Speaker 1: and again, but I don't know what's really going on.
Speaker 1: But yeah, Francessa, because he was this. This whole bit
Speaker 1: was the goof on Francessa back after this was a
Speaker 1: Francisca Francesca line. There. Francessa kept calling my different names,
Speaker 1: but Mike and the mad Dog. Um, so yeah, get
Speaker 1: book Cowhert. We've now, we've accomplished me had Tim Donnie.
Speaker 1: I wanted to get him on. We've gotten him on.
Speaker 1: Who else do we? We gotta get Petros on at
Speaker 1: some point, but Petros is usually on the radio when
Speaker 1: we record these podcasts, so it's gonna be tough. We
Speaker 1: gotta wait for baseball when the Dodgers are playing when
Speaker 1: we record the podcast, like a day game. Cowhards west
Speaker 1: of the four oh five. I don't know if he
Speaker 1: wants to come on. Yeah, no, I understand it. I
Speaker 1: mean he's probably playing tennis or something like that. You know.
Speaker 1: I'm just looking at the beach, looking at the way
Speaker 1: it's crash onto the sand, looking at the pollution. Understand.
Speaker 1: Mr Luciano from Los Angeles Rights, And he says, Benende,
Speaker 1: which state would you like to travel to? And why?
Speaker 1: And which state would you not travel to? And why? Mexico.
Speaker 1: I'd like to go a lot of place He wouldn't
Speaker 1: you wouldn't go to Mexico, New Mexico, No chance, not
Speaker 1: no New Mexico. What about Mexico, Yeah, it's not a state.
Speaker 1: Well I'm talking about Mexico. Yeah, the country. It's not
Speaker 1: a state. He said, whatich state would you want to
Speaker 1: go to? You? Yeah, but you know it's a state
Speaker 1: of the state of mind. U. I want to check
Speaker 1: everything out. I'd love to be able to have time
Speaker 1: and have my bills paid and drive across the country
Speaker 1: and see all of America and go from coast to
Speaker 1: coast and eventually get to Alaska. And I want to
Speaker 1: go back to Hawaii. I love Hawaii. I'd love to
Speaker 1: live there someday and it would be great. I don't
Speaker 1: think that'll ever happen, but uh, yeah, I want to
Speaker 1: I want to see everything. I haven't really spent a
Speaker 1: lot of time in the South. I've heard some good
Speaker 1: stories about the South. I've heard some terrible stories about
Speaker 1: the South. I'd like to experience it for myself. Uh.
Speaker 1: Drive through the corn fields of of Iowa. I've been
Speaker 1: to Kansas and Missouri in places like that, but I
Speaker 1: haven't really been to Iowa. I haven't been to Minnesota.
Speaker 1: I've actually been to the airport in Minnesota, only count
Speaker 1: There's a lot to see. I'd love to check it
Speaker 1: all out. Yeah, the flyovers states right like South Dakota,
Speaker 1: North Dakota, Wyoming, Montana. I haven't spent time in Colorado.
Speaker 1: I'd like to go to Denver and hang out, have
Speaker 1: the Ben Mallard Chicken you know sandwich there in Denver, Man. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think you'd enjoy it. I think I would too,
Speaker 1: So that's all that. It's really no where I wouldn't
Speaker 1: want to go. I mean, be places I wouldn't particularly
Speaker 1: be excited, but I don't think there's much of for
Speaker 1: me to do in South Dakota. What are you gonna
Speaker 1: do in New Mexico? New Mexico. It's just I got
Speaker 1: a buddy of mine that works radio in Albuquerque, so
Speaker 1: I could catch up with him, and I got I
Speaker 1: could check out Albuquerque case that was the first place
Speaker 1: that offered me a job in radio, A big paying
Speaker 1: job was in Albuquerque, and I turned it down. It's good,
Speaker 1: but I could have done sports radio in Albuquerque. The
Speaker 1: big sports talker in that city, Kevin in Kansas right
Speaker 1: since he's been in Gascon our school district just returned
Speaker 1: from spring break. What did you guys do for spring breaks?
Speaker 1: And where did you go? Keep up the great show? Uh?
Speaker 1: I didn't do really do much for springue. I think
Speaker 1: the most exotic I got was I went to to
Speaker 1: the Cactus League for some spring training baseball. That was
Speaker 1: about it. It didn't really travel. I didn't go to
Speaker 1: a cancoon. I didn't go to Mexico or the Bahamas
Speaker 1: or anywhere exotic. Just kept it local, down low, and
Speaker 1: what about you. Some of my my best memories have
Speaker 1: been going to spring training. So during spring break, I
Speaker 1: had a buddy of mine who was a Giants fan.
Speaker 1: Would go to Scottsdale and where the Giants played at
Speaker 1: they had this right field area which was kind of bougie,
Speaker 1: but you paid a hundred dollars for a ticket, and
Speaker 1: with that hundred dollars, you'd be seating in a sitting
Speaker 1: in a private area where you'd get alcohol and food,
Speaker 1: all you can eat, all you can drink for free,
Speaker 1: and you can arrive ninety minutes prior to first pitch
Speaker 1: and stay ninety minutes after the ball game ends. And
Speaker 1: so we would do that, would go to Scottsdale for
Speaker 1: three or four days party it up and have a
Speaker 1: great time. So I do that or do Vegas Miami
Speaker 1: a few times during spring break. I've done Vegas and
Speaker 1: and I have not done Miami for spring break. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I haven't gone full of Cooper Loop. Although he's a
Speaker 1: little out of the age of spring break. But he's
Speaker 1: enjoying his own spring a little that he trashes that
Speaker 1: governor and goes to that state. But you know, we
Speaker 1: need him to run for president. Don't you waste him?
Speaker 1: If you have long you can have Trump's gonna run.
Speaker 1: Well let's say Trump doesn't run. Let's say he doesn't,
Speaker 1: then it would be the Santis. Yes, yeah, who else
Speaker 1: can the Republicans put up that would have a chance.
Speaker 1: They can't. Like they only thought was maybe it was
Speaker 1: that Christie Naom, the governor of South Dakota. But she
Speaker 1: just went corporate and started um backtracking. Well no, she
Speaker 1: started backtracking on females in sports. Well then she's yeah,
Speaker 1: she spun it. I saw she was interviewed. I saw
Speaker 1: this week and she spun the story and all that. Yeah. Yeah, so,
Speaker 1: which is a slick political move, by the way, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's just politics. Just she's perfect, Yeah, exactly, And then
Speaker 1: she blames the people. You're impatient. You know you just
Speaker 1: did patients. Just calmed down. Don't be an eager beaver.
Speaker 1: Calm down, you're so over anxious. Yeah, all right, we
Speaker 1: have about Carlos, Carlos our guy and Bang Bang Houston.
Speaker 1: He says, Ben, you said that you knew the voice
Speaker 1: of the Rockets, Craig Ackerman. Try getting him on the podcast. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I met Craig Craigs and Maller militia guy. And I
Speaker 1: don't know if he's allowed to admit that, because you
Speaker 1: know he's in Houston. But Craig's great guy. I hung
Speaker 1: out with him, and uh, I know a couple of
Speaker 1: guys on the Rockets broadcast that are that are good dudes,
Speaker 1: and I'd love to get him on. Although I feel
Speaker 1: like I lost a lot of these NBA guys because
Speaker 1: they don't travel anymore because of COVID, and the guys
Speaker 1: would listen to me on their way home or flying
Speaker 1: around on planes going from city to city on the
Speaker 1: NBA circuit, you know, going to live in the vagabond lifestyle,
Speaker 1: and they don't do that anymore. They call the games
Speaker 1: at home, so it's not the same the same set up.
Speaker 1: He also says, what is the origin of Lance the
Speaker 1: bus driver? I swear you guys cracked me up when
Speaker 1: he it's on their Well, Lance isn't just a he's
Speaker 1: an actual bus to not really a bus driver anymore.
Speaker 1: He's been on disability for like several years, taking money
Speaker 1: to not work. But Lance is a fascinating character. He's
Speaker 1: a tremendously large human being that you would just imagine
Speaker 1: a big burley bus driver. Uh. And he's got a
Speaker 1: son who's humanity, his kid Lance and his kid came
Speaker 1: and I met Lance a couple of times. He's come
Speaker 1: to the radio station and his kid was like fifteen,
Speaker 1: the size of a left tackle for the Raiders. Uh. Insane. Um,
Speaker 1: you know, just a big burley, big bone guy. And
Speaker 1: but but Lance to we just started, he started busting
Speaker 1: my balls. I started, you know, calling him the worst
Speaker 1: bus driver in North America. And uh, he would tell
Speaker 1: stories of him driving around the bus in San Francisco
Speaker 1: with all the homeless people and all the crime, and
Speaker 1: you know, the politicians just looked the other way when
Speaker 1: all this was going on. And he drive through the
Speaker 1: worst neighborhoods in San Francisco, and uh, and we would
Speaker 1: we would always goof on him because he would be
Speaker 1: on the phone while drive people around the bus, which
Speaker 1: is not you know, they finally banned him from doing that,
Speaker 1: and we're like, he's the worst bus driver in San Francisco.
Speaker 1: And but it's all in, it's all in fun. It's
Speaker 1: all in in good fun with Lancelee bust driver Fats
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia. Boy, Fats really laid you out with some
Speaker 1: internet memes this week, guest. Amazing. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 1: between him lighting himself on fire and trying to find
Speaker 1: his own Dick's just absolutely amazing. It was a searching
Speaker 1: recovery mission. US said that. Fats says, if you and
Speaker 1: I had chicken chicken finger eating contest, would you beat me? Man?
Speaker 1: For sure, I'd give you a run for your money, Fats,
Speaker 1: I'd give you a run free. But you probably stopped
Speaker 1: midway through and light yourself on fire. So I I
Speaker 1: think I got you. I think I got you on that.
Speaker 1: I think he'd stopped in the middle and started giving
Speaker 1: you a BackRub. Nothing wrong with that, Rob, Rob writes
Speaker 1: in from parts of Notice, says, any advice for insomnia, No,
Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't want to cure insomnia,
Speaker 1: I'd lose half my audiences. I mean cur insomnia. It's
Speaker 1: my meal ticket. What are you talking about? Pierre from Springfield,
Speaker 1: mass Right, since this ben, If you were given the
Speaker 1: keys to the castle a k A GM or team
Speaker 1: president of any professional sports franchise, which sport and team
Speaker 1: would you choose? And why? And that was his first question?
Speaker 1: He has another one. Uh, yeah, I think baseball would
Speaker 1: be the most fun as a general manager. Football would
Speaker 1: be good, but there's a lot of bullshit in football,
Speaker 1: or you know, you don't really spend that much time
Speaker 1: on offensive defensive lineman and safeties and things like that. Um,
Speaker 1: it'd be fun to pick quarterbacks and receivers and running
Speaker 1: backs and things like that. But baseball building a team
Speaker 1: would be cool. Uh. He says. Also, how can someone
Speaker 1: who is attempting to ride your coattails on the climb
Speaker 1: up the corporate ladder be so ungrateful to you? He
Speaker 1: puts maximum effort into berating you in the mallad militia,
Speaker 1: yet it's little to no effort into his fill in
Speaker 1: duties on the radio program Don't Bite the hand that
Speaker 1: feeds You gag On. Signed Pierre from Springfield, mass Well,
Speaker 1: thank you, Pierre. You clearly understand that giscon is writing
Speaker 1: the Mather Express all the way up the mountain, all
Speaker 1: the way up the mountain expressed that guy's got a
Speaker 1: master's degree in rim jobs. I swear to God, that
Speaker 1: guy's on social media. He's right a day, he's right
Speaker 1: out the alien Piner. He's absolutely correct. I mean, if
Speaker 1: if Deshaul Watson ever needed another Massius, Pierre's the guy
Speaker 1: like that dude is just all on your nuts. It's weird.
Speaker 1: Well again, you're it's blaming the messenger, but you're avoiding
Speaker 1: the question. You're avoiding the statement. It's a stupid I
Speaker 1: wouldn't even dignify it. That's how bad it is. So
Speaker 1: you're not saying he's yeah, okay, how do you feel uncomfortable?
Speaker 1: Job by Pierre, two thumbs up? Don't you feel uncomfortable?
Speaker 1: I give you three thumbs up, but three thumbs up
Speaker 1: and I only have two. All right? Kevin from Rockford, Illinois,
Speaker 1: right city, says Mr Mallard and gas man, Uh, this
Speaker 1: is my question. In fact, this is a fact. He says,
Speaker 1: Culver's is much better than in and out. That's what
Speaker 1: a Hamburger is all about whatever you get the chance,
Speaker 1: you need to try Culver's. My suggestion is the double
Speaker 1: bacon cheddar butter burger with cheese kurds. There, it's a
Speaker 1: double bacon good. I would like to experience Culver's. I
Speaker 1: have not enjoyed Cavers. I've heard tremendous things about it.
Speaker 1: There's a cult following of that. And the problem that's
Speaker 1: a locate It's a location situation. The closest Culver's is
Speaker 1: in actually in Arizona. There's white one for some odd
Speaker 1: reason in Arizona, but it's mostly an Upper Midwest chain Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Speaker 1: the Dakota's, Illinois, places like that, Michigan. Um. So there's none.
Speaker 1: There's nothing within you know, short driving distance it. I
Speaker 1: would like to check out the menu. Man, does I
Speaker 1: look good? I mean, of course, I've I've been fasting
Speaker 1: for for a fair amount of time here. But the
Speaker 1: butter burger. They've got the frozen custard, which doesn't look
Speaker 1: all that bad. There they have a little seafood, they've
Speaker 1: got the chicken tenders don't look good to me. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you, I don't like the chicken tenders. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna go there for the chicken tenders, but
Speaker 1: the chicken sandwich looks all right. And yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: get some good stuff variety. I get a fair amount
Speaker 1: and a I don't know about that pot roast sandwich.
Speaker 1: I'm not a big pot roast gay pot ross gay. No,
Speaker 1: not really. The grilled the grilled Ruben. I like a Reuben. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm a fan of the Ruben. I do like that.
Speaker 1: So anyway, Uh, we'll check that out at somewhere where
Speaker 1: I gotta visit my brother who loves in Wisconsin. So
Speaker 1: when I'm back visiting him, all like, let's go have
Speaker 1: lunch at Culver So, I mean, boom, I'll get some custard.
Speaker 1: Mike from Vegas last one. He wants to know guests
Speaker 1: gotten boxers and Briefe neither. Wow. Uh. He also says
Speaker 1: which major league managers are on the hot seat heading
Speaker 1: into season. That's a very sport oh question by you,
Speaker 1: Mike in Vegas. Yeah, we try to avoid even though
Speaker 1: it is a plausibly a sports show, we try to
Speaker 1: avoid those. But I just just off the top of
Speaker 1: my head, if you if you look at the current
Speaker 1: major league managers, who is likely to be on the
Speaker 1: hot seat. Uh, the first name that pops up would
Speaker 1: be Aaron Boone. The Yankees have been a playoff team,
Speaker 1: but if they don't get over the hump, I could
Speaker 1: see the Yankees pulling the plug on Aaron Boone moving
Speaker 1: on from him. Also, Luis Rojan, I'll go double up
Speaker 1: on New York Luis Rojas. The expectations are high for
Speaker 1: the Mets. If they fail to live up to those expectations,
Speaker 1: and I'll say Gabe Kapler also because I don't think
Speaker 1: he knows what he's doing. Do you think, Well, what
Speaker 1: about Dave Roberts? Though, what happens that the Dodgers just
Speaker 1: tank this season? Now they won the World Series. He's
Speaker 1: got he's got a little, he's got time. But if
Speaker 1: they didn't fire him when they kept choking in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: and I gonna fire him after one down year after
Speaker 1: winning the World Series, Dodgers are pretty loyal. Kelly Jensen, Kershaw, Roberts, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Johnny who else? I like Joe Madden, but he was
Speaker 1: that was a hot mess last year. They have another
Speaker 1: bad year, but they had no pitching last season. They
Speaker 1: have no pitching this year either. They've recreated the Baltimore
Speaker 1: Orioles rotation of seventeen eighteen. What are they doing? You
Speaker 1: can get somebody that wasn't a fucking pitcher for the Orioles.
Speaker 1: How about that? Oh my god, judicous? Oh I got
Speaker 1: how about LaRussa? About Larusa? Right? Yeah, he's on a
Speaker 1: short leash. That's lightning in the bottle with that team though. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I could see Terry Francone. He's been around Cleveland the
Speaker 1: Indians for a long time, and he's had a lot
Speaker 1: of health problems. I could see a scenario where he
Speaker 1: he's gonna get fired, but they just like he retires,
Speaker 1: you know, I kind of ups away for health reasons.
Speaker 1: You can see that. All right? There it is Gascon.
