Speaker 1: Kaboo. If you thought more hours a day dred minutes
Speaker 1: a week was enough, I think again. He's the last
Speaker 1: remnants of the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness.

Speaker 1: it's the it's the mail bag, and this is my
Speaker 1: favorite podcast. And it's gonna be a smaller mail bag
Speaker 1: because of you, guest, because we're on guest on time.

Speaker 1: fan of the show, he says, been it is very
Speaker 1: well known that you're coaching tree is immense and quite impressive.
Speaker 1: I don't want to jinx anything, but now that Mr
Speaker 1: Gascon has replaced pit Poll as Mr Worldwide, how long
Speaker 1: before you begin the search for his replacement. It's already
Speaker 1: started here between all of the acting gigs and job
Speaker 1: opportunities in China and Germany. I'm afraid that David is
Speaker 1: burning the candle at both ends and has no time
Speaker 1: for a social life, but feels obligated to crank out
Speaker 1: such high quality podcast on a weekly basis. However the outcome, Please,
Speaker 1: whatever the outcome, he says, please don't let Mr Quaker
Speaker 1: Oates on the podcast. You have to rename it the fifth,
Speaker 1: sixth and seventh Doar with Ben Maller and Ned Plane. No. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well we have not made that phone call. I don't
Speaker 1: know if you've never made that phone call. I don't
Speaker 1: know that's ever gonna happen there. I don't think we
Speaker 1: have to worry about that. Yeah, I mean, I'll have
Speaker 1: the saga on every week. I'll get leeklined back. Jerry Callahan,
Speaker 1: Mike North will roll through, hack Saw Hamilton's will bring
Speaker 1: them all back. My goodness. Uh, let's see here, Uh. Now,
Speaker 1: I guess is it true that you're burning the candle
Speaker 1: at both ends here, that you have no time and
Speaker 1: you should really take a step back. I am, I'm
Speaker 1: I'm working hard though. You'd be proud of me. I
Speaker 1: just finished shooting a web series a couple of days ago,
Speaker 1: doing the German Games. I got spain and in Barcelona, Spain, Barcelona,
Speaker 1: Froy got root swaf, I got poland on deck. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I got some things in the mix. Oh and I
Speaker 1: might have something for us at the end of July. Dum.
Speaker 1: Where are we going Hawaii? What do we Vegas? Vegas?
Speaker 1: It's let me know. He's been teasing me with this
Speaker 1: whole Vegas thing. You know, I love Vegas. We should
Speaker 1: have a Millard Meet and greet in Vegas and you
Speaker 1: can be part of We can have like a podcast
Speaker 1: meet and greet. Would you how would you handle that? Guescom?
Speaker 1: Would you be okay? Meeting the people? Flash with the people.
Speaker 1: But I like going to the MGM. What's your favorite
Speaker 1: hotel out there? I'll go anywhere they give me a deal.
Speaker 1: I don't I like the MGM. The problem is when
Speaker 1: you get one of those deals at the MGM, you're
Speaker 1: at the end of those massive hallways and it's like
Speaker 1: a forty five minute walk to get to the elevator.
Speaker 1: And I always hate that. Uh uh. Vahid Habib from
Speaker 1: Saints Country, Ne Orleans says, how long and where was
Speaker 1: both of your vacations? Myself, he said, he took two
Speaker 1: months in Europe. He's a originally landing in Bosnia and
Speaker 1: then traveling around Europe. Originally I am Bosnian, he says,
Speaker 1: and living in New Orleans since twenty two. That's pretty cool.
Speaker 1: Ian languages he speaks. He does not say here. He says,
Speaker 1: have a safe summer, that's all. That's really cool that
Speaker 1: you were able to take two months in Europe. I've
Speaker 1: never felt comfortable being in radio. Everyone in radio is
Speaker 1: very paranoid, and I've never felt that I can take
Speaker 1: that much time off. And even like this year, at
Speaker 1: the end of the year, I take my I usually
Speaker 1: save up all my time to the end of the year,
Speaker 1: like between Christmas and New Year's and then usually a
Speaker 1: few days before Christmas, i'm I'm not around, and then
Speaker 1: I come back a few days after the New year starts.
Speaker 1: But this year, my my father passed away, so I
Speaker 1: had to take an extra like week off to take
Speaker 1: care of all that stuff, and I felt soul like
Speaker 1: out of sorts. When I came back, I was like, oh, man,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine taking too much. It would be awesome
Speaker 1: if I could, though. But my last trip, I went
Speaker 1: to San Louis Obispo, Central California, the Hearst cat astle
Speaker 1: Morro Bay, San Simeon the central coast of California, which
Speaker 1: is great off the grade away from humanity and and
Speaker 1: I loved it. What about you, guess? Yeah, my last
Speaker 1: vacation were selebrate one of my good friends forty birthday
Speaker 1: and my other buddy Patrick and I. I went to
Speaker 1: London by myself. I went from London to Paris, and
Speaker 1: then I met Patrick in Amsterdam, and then all three
Speaker 1: of us met in Barcelona and then Porto, Portugal, So
Speaker 1: five countries in a two week period. It was awesome.
Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't know if I could do
Speaker 1: two months, but at least a month in Europe would
Speaker 1: be fucking amazing. Training it and um backpack and I'd
Speaker 1: be fantastic. But yeah, I mean, I guess, have you
Speaker 1: been to Israel? No, I've never been to Israel. I
Speaker 1: have my I have family there, and my cousin actually
Speaker 1: runs a restaurant in Tel Aviv in Israel Jerusalem. I
Speaker 1: believe it's an American theme restaurant. He grew up in
Speaker 1: l A and he's lived in Israel for probably thirty
Speaker 1: years or something like that. I don't know my family. Oh,
Speaker 1: you gotta go to Israel, man, I don't know. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean I have at some point. I'd
Speaker 1: like to. I'd like to get there um when I
Speaker 1: start traveling, but I don't know who knows if that's
Speaker 1: ever gonna happen. You know, way things are going. They
Speaker 1: keep paying me when I'm they're paying me. Guest, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna keep working here and not travels. I'm just saying,
Speaker 1: but maybe this podcast will take off, Guest, I won't
Speaker 1: get the big Yeah. All right, let's see here Kyrie
Speaker 1: and Okay, see writes and says, dear Moneyball Mallard, Hey,
Speaker 1: big man. Is it bad that I do a fifty
Speaker 1: fifty split on answering that I listened to a sports podcast,
Speaker 1: or say I listened to Ben Maller The Goat podcast
Speaker 1: about that the goat called me the goat. The real
Speaker 1: question is who is your biggest influence, Kyrie says, into
Speaker 1: being a radio gas bag. Uh, well, I've I've I've
Speaker 1: used that. You know, I've been asked that before. Kyrie
Speaker 1: and I always go Jim Healy. But I listened to
Speaker 1: I listened. I listened to Howard Stern when he was
Speaker 1: in his prime, before he became a Mr. Softie in
Speaker 1: his older age there and went woke. But I had
Speaker 1: fond mermaids of the Howard Stern Show listening to that.
Speaker 1: Jim Healy was an influence. Haxaw Hamilton's Joe McDonald, some
Speaker 1: of the people that I listened to, uh in l
Speaker 1: A when I was when I was growing up. Uh
Speaker 1: what announcer radio personnel? Well, Jim he I just I
Speaker 1: gave the name. Uh. He says, what was the moment
Speaker 1: you knew that you wanted to be a sports broadcaster? Well,
Speaker 1: that would be one of my sports career. My playing
Speaker 1: career ended and I realized I was not going to
Speaker 1: make the big leagues or the NFL or the NBA.
Speaker 1: He says. Always much love to you and gas Can.
Speaker 1: That's from Kyrie, big fan there in Oksey. Thank you, Kyrie,
Speaker 1: appreciate that Carlos in Houston, Texas bank bye, he says,
Speaker 1: was one of the reasons is that you moved from
Speaker 1: the Mallard mansion because Doc Mike finally found out where
Speaker 1: you live. No, but I did get a very stockersh
Speaker 1: email from blind Scott when I moved, and blind Scott
Speaker 1: sent me a message and he said he like a
Speaker 1: like a a serial killer. He then said, well, you
Speaker 1: moved out of blank he named the city that I
Speaker 1: live in. How do you find that out? And then
Speaker 1: he said, well when you finally move again, I'll find
Speaker 1: out where you live. Then. Also a fucking second, right,
Speaker 1: what a nut job? What an absolute nut job? I
Speaker 1: can I know? I had a Oh man, let miss
Speaker 1: hold on second. Here I got I gotta go to
Speaker 1: my bag email here. This is a different email. So
Speaker 1: this is guy Marked, a full name guy who sent
Speaker 1: a much of anti Semitic racist stuff. So I blocked Mark,
Speaker 1: the full name guy he used to call the show.
Speaker 1: He's banned from the show now. But he sent me
Speaker 1: a stoker ish threatening email. Uh, let me see if
Speaker 1: I can find it here. There you go, page down.
Speaker 1: That's good. Uh, I mean, he's just like he's turned
Speaker 1: to email because I should block his email address. No,
Speaker 1: you can't do that. Let's see here. I'm trying to
Speaker 1: find it because he was very threatening here, so you
Speaker 1: can't read that one on the air. Ah. It was
Speaker 1: like he knew people and some hold on, Uh, let's
Speaker 1: see what here? Oh, here it is. Be sure to
Speaker 1: catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at
Speaker 1: two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio
Speaker 1: and the I Heart Radio app. Be sure to catch
Speaker 1: live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two
Speaker 1: am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. He says, this is from Mark.
Speaker 1: He says, it is very possible that some crazy assholes
Speaker 1: are still waiting around where you live and where I
Speaker 1: was living, sleeper cells with dangerous bosses and dangerous information.
Speaker 1: And so I am telling you do not piss me
Speaker 1: off with something that damn stupid. Again. Does that not
Speaker 1: sound like it's threatening? Does that not sound like he's
Speaker 1: threatening to violence against me? That's how I took it.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a stack of these emails. You you
Speaker 1: have reached celebrity status, though you're not a celebrity until
Speaker 1: you start getting threats like that. I've been getting these
Speaker 1: for years, but this this guy is off. I don't
Speaker 1: mean from like Arizon or like Texas reporters. I mean
Speaker 1: from like fam boys. Oh no, I've had that. I
Speaker 1: mean that's been uh stay but anyway, Um no, Carlos,
Speaker 1: I did not move because people found out where I live.
Speaker 1: He says, also did the Rockets dodgy bullet by not
Speaker 1: trading James Harden for Ben Simmons. I'm gonna go No,
Speaker 1: Ben Simmons sucks, but he's still better than what a
Speaker 1: Rockets got in return for James Harden. And he says,
Speaker 1: what are the pros and cons of interminute fasting? I
Speaker 1: really want to start by my wife is if he
Speaker 1: about it? Uh, well, there's going to be in a
Speaker 1: learning curve when you start this. It takes a little
Speaker 1: time to kind of get used to it. Like anything,
Speaker 1: It's gonna take like a month or a couple of
Speaker 1: months before it just becomes second nature to you. But
Speaker 1: for me, in my experience, I'm part of the coult
Speaker 1: of interminute fasting. Uh. It allows me, when I eat,
Speaker 1: which is not very often, to eat whatever the hell
Speaker 1: I want. Pretty much, you don't have as big an
Speaker 1: appetite because your stomach kind of shrinks a little bit.
Speaker 1: And it's really for me, not that I know some
Speaker 1: people have a problem with it. But I'll just drink
Speaker 1: a lot of water. I don't fast and not drink water,
Speaker 1: so I'll just fill my stomach with water, so I
Speaker 1: have in my mind my stomach is full. It's not.
Speaker 1: And I've been able to keep the weight off and
Speaker 1: lose even more weight. So for me, it's it's works.
Speaker 1: But I mean there are issues when you fast, you
Speaker 1: have a long fast, I'll go um. Lately, I've been
Speaker 1: mostly doing forty fast and when you do fast for
Speaker 1: forty eight hours or longer and you eat something, I
Speaker 1: think this might because of my gall bladder, but you
Speaker 1: just immediately you have to exit. There's an exit plan
Speaker 1: right away for me. But I think that's more gall
Speaker 1: bladder related. Now you've been doing the fasting guests gun, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think there's an improved improved I guess sense of urgency.
Speaker 1: I know the energy like is drastically increased. I sleep better,
Speaker 1: I don't have a brain fogg during the day. Um,
Speaker 1: when I speak sometimes I get a lazy tongue. That's
Speaker 1: just because I eat a lot, or I just eat
Speaker 1: shitty food. So when I don't and I fast, I'm sharp. Um.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, reduction of weight. I don't feel bloated
Speaker 1: or full anymore. And then um, like the ideas you
Speaker 1: want to get to a top of which is a
Speaker 1: state where you're your old cells are recycled out and
Speaker 1: new cells are in. That's where you get to when
Speaker 1: you hit forty eight hours, so in six and eight
Speaker 1: two hours. It also teaches you, hey, like, you don't
Speaker 1: need you don't need all kinds of food in your
Speaker 1: system to function throughout the day. If you're keeping yourself busy,
Speaker 1: drinking water, staying hydrated, and you know, exercising a little bit,
Speaker 1: it goes a long way for you. Yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: it's it's for me. It's the way to go. But
Speaker 1: to each of their own, there's other people who want
Speaker 1: to eat, you know, cut their calaries to a certain amount,
Speaker 1: eat three meals, a little small like mouse meals. I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: just imagine that if you didn't, I mean, if you
Speaker 1: were fasting back in the day, you wouldn't have ate
Speaker 1: all that fast food when you're working the beats, Uh,
Speaker 1: I would always like I have to eat dinner and
Speaker 1: be like two in the morning. I got to eat dinner.
Speaker 1: You have to eat dinner or two in the morning.
Speaker 1: Barry and Nashville rites and he says, yo, yo, mob Benny,
Speaker 1: big news. The news is so big I wasn't able
Speaker 1: to submit a question last week. It's that big Berry says.
Speaker 1: That's right, Raising canes is coming to Nashville. In big news,
Speaker 1: he says, I know you love them, so what should
Speaker 1: I expect? And what's the go to can't wait? That
Speaker 1: is from from Barry. Well, for me, it's the candy
Speaker 1: at combo, which is the biggest combo. A couple of
Speaker 1: life hacks for raising canes. You can get the bread
Speaker 1: toasted on both sides if you want, no cole slaw,
Speaker 1: extra fries, the way to go. Lemonades a little more expensive.
Speaker 1: They tack on a little few extra cents worth it.
Speaker 1: Lemonades pretty good. The sauces outstanding. The sauce that comes
Speaker 1: with it. You can't get other sauces if you want.
Speaker 1: I don't recommend it, but they have honey mustard, and
Speaker 1: they have barbecue and some other stuff, but they the sauce,
Speaker 1: the cane sauce that they give you is outstanding, and
Speaker 1: it's it's far as far as fast food. It's the
Speaker 1: only fast food I really eat these days. I'll eat
Speaker 1: that every so often and I love it. And you're
Speaker 1: guess you're a fan of canes as well. You appreciate
Speaker 1: prefer to have it when it's warm. Well, show up
Speaker 1: on time, show up when the when restaurants open, don't
Speaker 1: show up the restaurant's closed. Jason from Rocky Mount, Virginia

Speaker 1: with Bill Cosby dr Huxtable. Only o J is there too,
Speaker 1: you know, J. You shoot the ship with o J.
Speaker 1: Does he still hang out at those bars in Vegas? Yeah?
Speaker 1: At the grand old time. Still getting that NFL pension.
Speaker 1: Get that pension coming in? Man, Well, Cosby has gotta
Speaker 1: be getting something from SAG right, I'm sure. And all
Speaker 1: the shows I have, they they've taken all the shows
Speaker 1: he was on off the air. I don't know he's doing. Okay,
Speaker 1: He's got houses in California and Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, uh and
Speaker 1: and elsewhere. Uh well, yeah, if like nobody knew about it,
Speaker 1: you might. I'm sure Cosby's got some amazing stories to tell. Right,
Speaker 1: who else? Do we have? Your Fred in Spring Texas says,
Speaker 1: how involved are you and Gascon with your alma maters? Um?
Speaker 1: Not at all. I did do a radio promo. I
Speaker 1: signed off on a radio promo or Saddleback College, but
Speaker 1: that was was it. I'd love to go back there
Speaker 1: and and do some stuff, but I have not at
Speaker 1: the opportunity. What about you know? Yeah, San Diego State
Speaker 1: would only contact me for money, That's how that works.
Speaker 1: And then every time I had reached out to Northwestern
Speaker 1: about some kind of stuff that was sports related, they
Speaker 1: would always start passing me around other people. I just said,
Speaker 1: fuck it, I'm not even gonna worried about you guys. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so that you're not a big enough Yeah yeah. John
Speaker 1: from Omaha Rights and he says, been long time listening
Speaker 1: to the podcast. Since why does humanity make so much trash?
Speaker 1: It's completely disgusting. There has got to be big changes now,
Speaker 1: don't you believe so? Uh? Yeah, I mean you'd like
Speaker 1: to think that, John, I'm not particularly optimistic that there's
Speaker 1: going to be a bunch of big, big changes. You
Speaker 1: get you think things are gonna dramatically change, although there
Speaker 1: is the ebb and flow where like stuff goes one
Speaker 1: direction and then eventually people get tired of that and
Speaker 1: then it goes back a different direction. So I do
Speaker 1: believe in that. I think that that, you know, things
Speaker 1: are not going to be as nuts so as they
Speaker 1: are right now. Change, But how much they're going to change?
Speaker 1: Are we gonna get people gonna get tired of the
Speaker 1: local ROTI and all that. Well, we'll see. I think
Speaker 1: within the next five years we're going to see a massive, massive,
Speaker 1: overlord overlord. We're gone overlord overload of of states based
Speaker 1: on just their political allegiance. So if you're a Blue team,
Speaker 1: or you go to one state, if you're a Red team,
Speaker 1: or you go to another. Yeah, I mean, I guess
Speaker 1: the one state that could be the exception is Texas
Speaker 1: because Austin. Austin is a very liberal. But you've had
Speaker 1: mass migration from California and New York to both Texas
Speaker 1: and Florida. But I know a lot of people that
Speaker 1: have gone to Idaho. I know a lot of people
Speaker 1: have gone to Arizona. Yeah, I know a lot of
Speaker 1: people that moved to But the problem is that often
Speaker 1: they bring their same bad political decisions to those states
Speaker 1: and they turn those states like California like people. That's
Speaker 1: the big concern of people in Texas. These nut jobs
Speaker 1: from California gonna move to Texas and turn Texas into
Speaker 1: California and bring their their venom from California to Texas. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's wild. I don't think Florida those in any day.
Speaker 1: I think Florida is big enough and there's enough, uh
Speaker 1: free spirits, But Florida could be in trouble if Rhn
Speaker 1: de Santis de sens to run for president, why would
Speaker 1: they be in trouble Because he's no longer obviously going
Speaker 1: to be the governor, so he should run for president. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we'll see you be better than anyone else I know,
Speaker 1: Ron de Saint anyway, Queen Roxann, Right, since it's Ben
Speaker 1: and David, since you both are doing TV gigs, now,
Speaker 1: when can we expect you to to go big time?
Speaker 1: And will you remember the little people you met along
Speaker 1: the white No, I will not remember anyone. I will
Speaker 1: forget everyone. I will turn my back on all of you,
Speaker 1: throw your phone into the Pacific Ocean, end that none
Speaker 1: of this ever happened. I will have my memory erased.
Speaker 1: I will take in a racer out, you know that
Speaker 1: the men in black. Yeah, put the glasses on. Put
Speaker 1: the glasses on, and then we are off to the races.
Speaker 1: Get that neuralizer, I don't get that neuralizer out and
Speaker 1: just you know, wipe the mind with a flash like that.
Speaker 1: Be wonderful. Who else? Kevin and Kansas says Ben and David.
Speaker 1: Both of you have great radio voices. Is this something
Speaker 1: you've always known or did you have to train to
Speaker 1: get where you're at. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Speaker 1: Yours developed after you lost weight. My voice has changed drastically.
Speaker 1: When I started at sports radio, I sounded much different
Speaker 1: than they found now. But I was very young when
Speaker 1: I started at Fox Sports Radio. But I you know,
Speaker 1: the greatest comparisons like someone squeezing your voice box. M
Speaker 1: it was just fat and then all of the sudden.
Speaker 1: Guestcon's voice Kevin is a product of nicotine, a lot
Speaker 1: of cigarettes that he has smoked over the years that
Speaker 1: has given him the voice that he is. I used
Speaker 1: to hear a golden folklore about broadcasters that would do that.
Speaker 1: They'd smoke and then drink whiskey in order to change
Speaker 1: their pipes. Yeah, well that's true. I've witnessed it. People
Speaker 1: really would go out and smoke, and yeah, what those
Speaker 1: You've never well, I guess you're younger than me, but yeah,
Speaker 1: I've never seen that. I've never even heard of that.
Speaker 1: You know, it does you have a much Smoking cigarettes
Speaker 1: is not good for you, but it doesn't prove your
Speaker 1: voice for some people, that's crazy. I remember when I
Speaker 1: when I hit my gross spurt at fifteen, in school,
Speaker 1: you know, when they asked for participation in certain classes.
Speaker 1: Whenever I speak, my voice started croaking. I sound like
Speaker 1: a frog, and I was like, what the fun's wrong
Speaker 1: with me? You know? And then all of a sudden
Speaker 1: you go from that high pitched voice to too deep.
Speaker 1: So my dad has deep pipes. I don't know if
Speaker 1: your dad did. My dad his voice was was pretty
Speaker 1: good or not not the grace. He had a decent,
Speaker 1: decent voice. What about your brothers? Do your brothers have
Speaker 1: similar voices to you? Um? No, no, I My voice
Speaker 1: is much different than my younger brother, and I think
Speaker 1: I sound more like my older brother a little bit.
Speaker 1: But I haven't really stopped and done like a analysis,
Speaker 1: just just from yeah, occasionally hearing them speak. Let's see
Speaker 1: Chris and Marracca to Iowa says, would you accept a
Speaker 1: minor role in a major movie if it involves tastefully
Speaker 1: tasteful nudity? Yes? Of course, you've already admitted that. The
Speaker 1: couple in Florida pointed that out there supposed you the
Speaker 1: ones in diapers. Wow, you're so jealous that these people
Speaker 1: did their due diligence and to realize what's going on
Speaker 1: with you? That you are open to nudity in movies.
Speaker 1: Taking your shirt off is classified as nudity. Well you
Speaker 1: are okay with that? Of course, I'm okay. And you
Speaker 1: have a big problem. You don't put a car cover
Speaker 1: on a Ferrari then, uh huh, yeah, you're you're very
Speaker 1: You have the issue with Helen, right, Helen and Stu
Speaker 1: and Palmetto Bay. You have a problem with him. There
Speaker 1: is some nice people from New York City that just
Speaker 1: hanging out New Yorkers. That says enough right there there
Speaker 1: they're Floridians right now. Of course you would No, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't if they paid, He says, here at the standard rate,
Speaker 1: why would I do that? I don't need you know
Speaker 1: what the standard rate is for a day. I'm not
Speaker 1: doing it. It's not worth my time. Boy, you gotta
Speaker 1: pay me top dollar to see this body. She suck valls.
Speaker 1: Fan Jimmy writes in from Fayette Bill, Tennessee. He says,
Speaker 1: for both of you, do you own land do you
Speaker 1: do your own landscaping or do you hire it out? Well, Gascon,
Speaker 1: you don't do any of that, and I don't do
Speaker 1: any of it either. I have a a person we
Speaker 1: hired the gardener. We call him who does the landscape,
Speaker 1: but they do. They do it for just like the block. No,
Speaker 1: well here where I'm living now, Yeah, but when when
Speaker 1: I move, I've had the gardener and all that, so yeah,
Speaker 1: but I do not do that. When I was a kid,
Speaker 1: I did it. We had the lawnmower and it's old
Speaker 1: metal lawnmower, not not electric or anything. That. That's the
Speaker 1: worst thing about HIAS though. Like I know one of
Speaker 1: our colleagues, Mike Harmon, he lives in a pretty good
Speaker 1: part of town, but his HIA way doesn't include a
Speaker 1: lot of scene reward, and so you're always kind of
Speaker 1: curiously where does that money actually go? Yeah, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: I hate hys. I can't stand him, and I'll never
Speaker 1: live in one again once I move out here anyway.
Speaker 1: David in Toronto, last one, He says, your favorite two
Speaker 1: words in sports mine are sudden death. Sudden death. He says,
Speaker 1: Canadians suck. Canadians suck. Why are you ripping these guys
Speaker 1: in Toronto? What is wrong with David? In? Toronto is
Speaker 1: a great town. Where you've been, I haven't been, but
Speaker 1: I'm not a fan of Toronto. Maple leaves and I'm
Speaker 1: definitely not a family of Montreal, Canadian, so they could
Speaker 1: both funck off. Wow, how about that? I like, Uh,
Speaker 1: sports scandal, That's what I like. Those are my two
Speaker 1: favorite words because that provides great sports talk radio and
Speaker 1: he gives me content, whether it's Deshaun Watson, Trevor Bauer,
Speaker 1: you name it, if it's a scandal. Low hanging fruit,
Speaker 1: which is the sweetest fruit of them all, the low
Speaker 1: hanging fruit. Love it, leven leven, leve, leve, leve, love it,
Speaker 1: love it, love it. You can't get enough of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't point that out. It's good. Have you been
Speaker 1: in Toronto? I have not. I want to go. I
Speaker 1: heard Toronto's awesome. I've been just south of there in
Speaker 1: Buffalo and Niagara Falls, which is about an hour and
Speaker 1: a half or an hour away from from Toronto, but
Speaker 1: I've not actually been to Toronto proper. But Buffalo is
Speaker 1: like a suburb. Isn't a suburb because you have Well,
Speaker 1: it's not a suburb unless you've jumped off a table
Speaker 1: onto a fire pit. And well, I'm merely pointing out
Speaker 1: I'm merely pointing out the reality that the Toronto Blue
Speaker 1: Jays are playing in Buffalo Buffalo Blue. Yeah, anyway, all right,
Speaker 1: I'll give you a get out of here. All right.
Speaker 1: We're to get things to do, places to go, people
Speaker 1: to see that. So I have a great week. We'll
