Speaker 1: If you thought four hours a day, minutes a week
Speaker 1: was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants of
Speaker 1: the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats
Speaker 1: crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the rich
Speaker 1: pill poppers in the penthouse. The clearing House of Hot
Speaker 1: takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with
Speaker 1: Ben Maller starts right now. That it does. We are
Speaker 1: in the air everywhere as we fillibuster the podcast away
Speaker 1: here eight days a week, well not this week because
Speaker 1: of the furlough, but normally eight days a week. This
Speaker 1: is the Sunday show. There will be no radio show tonight.
Speaker 1: If you listen to this on Sunday, there is no
Speaker 1: radio show. And well there'll be a show. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna be hosting it because of Maya furlow. But we're
Speaker 1: here because four hours not enough on a typical night,
Speaker 1: and a spinoff of the radio show. And over there
Speaker 1: somebody not on the radio show because he can't work overnight.
Speaker 1: He's west of the four oh five. David, guess yeah,
Speaker 1: I refused to abdicate my my manhood to to call
Speaker 1: you daddy. Um, I won't never, I will never ever
Speaker 1: ever panned to you or the masses like that. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm still in contention for best filling, but it will
Speaker 1: not be for those reasons and those reasons alone. So
Speaker 1: um but yeah, Loud and Brown Backer in the studio
Speaker 1: with you. You go from Benny Bride's side to to
Speaker 1: flow Benny. You're just adding another name onto, yes, to
Speaker 1: the nickname collection list. That is right, adding a new
Speaker 1: nick name here. So we had John Sterling on the
Speaker 1: Friday A part. If you did not download that, I
Speaker 1: do recommend it. He was great, he was stuff thinking
Speaker 1: about that. He's The stories he told were awesome. He's
Speaker 1: a great story too. Obviously, he's been doing this forever
Speaker 1: for his entire life. And we ran for I think
Speaker 1: thirty minutes on that one and didn't even get enough
Speaker 1: questions in too to have him answer. Unfortunately. Yeah, there
Speaker 1: was like a bunch of other stuff. We should have
Speaker 1: him on again, but it's gonna be tough once baseball
Speaker 1: starts with to get him on because he'll be working
Speaker 1: every day and I don't have time anyway. Uh So
Speaker 1: we have on this party because we've got a big
Speaker 1: mail bag. We can maybe do some Florida. Man, if
Speaker 1: you want and we have. Don't stick to sports stories
Speaker 1: of the week, which is pretty much all we're doing now.
Speaker 1: You want to start with don't stick to sports stories
Speaker 1: of the week. You wanna start with that Before we
Speaker 1: actually start with that, let's let's thank the masses guest
Speaker 1: on again. The podcast reviews have been good. We actually
Speaker 1: got a little publicity for the podcast promotion. Yeah, which
Speaker 1: is cool. I was shocked. I I woke up one
Speaker 1: morning and took a snapshot photo of podcasts that are
Speaker 1: are trending in the uh, the sports landscape and the
Speaker 1: most popular popcast podcasts. Excuse me that we're we're in
Speaker 1: there for sports related to include the Fifth Out with
Speaker 1: Ben Miller on on Apple iTunes front and center. Awesome.
Speaker 1: You didn't have to scroll down or anything like that.
Speaker 1: There are twelve billion podcasts and ours was featured near
Speaker 1: the front. That's pretty cool. That is nice. And of
Speaker 1: course it helps you get people that review it, comment
Speaker 1: on it, and then participating any of the comments for
Speaker 1: the podcast, which is huge. So we're all over the
Speaker 1: place man, loud and proud, and of course can't do
Speaker 1: it without the other listeners out there. Absolutely absolutely all right,
Speaker 1: So where should we say Florida man, or you want
Speaker 1: to start with, don't stick to sport. You got the
Speaker 1: itch for Florida man. I think the last couple of
Speaker 1: weeks we've had naked men and women on Florida man.
Speaker 1: So what do we got now? All right, so we
Speaker 1: have I don't know if we can play this audio
Speaker 1: or not. I'm putting on the spot. But there was
Speaker 1: a viral video of a woman and says she wasn't
Speaker 1: just one woman, like several women at this city council
Speaker 1: meeting in Florida somewhere. And this woman started raging and
Speaker 1: she went on this this rant that just freestyle and
Speaker 1: just freestyling and just unloting. She she was like calling
Speaker 1: the politicians the devil. She mentioned Bill Gates and uh,
Speaker 1: deep state pedophiles. Hillary Clinton like, oh this wild wild
Speaker 1: stuff you just coming for you. Yeah, ratitat tat, ratitat tat.
Speaker 1: It was. It was pretty pretty impressive. But the thing
Speaker 1: about this, so I've seen enough of these highlights from
Speaker 1: city council meetings, like these politicians are just soulless. They
Speaker 1: don't pay any attention. You go to a city council
Speaker 1: meeting and you read the riot Act here, I used
Speaker 1: to read the riot active these these the city council
Speaker 1: and I've been listening, all right, thank you, you're a
Speaker 1: lot of time is up next. It's like just completely lifeless,
Speaker 1: just their obligation passing on through. Yeah, but yet people
Speaker 1: still do it because I guess it's it's therapeutic to
Speaker 1: go and rant at the politicians even though they're not
Speaker 1: gonna do anything unless they're they're getting their backscratched via
Speaker 1: outside influences. But that Florida woman, I guess we don't
Speaker 1: have we can't play it. But it's if you haven't seen,
Speaker 1: it's got like seven million views or something like that
Speaker 1: on social media. It's been been pretty big. Speaking of
Speaker 1: Florida woman, this is about Florida. This is about Florida woman.
Speaker 1: How about this about goats? A Florida woman has filed
Speaker 1: a lawsuit against her neighbor, seeking either a paternity test
Speaker 1: on her goats or a refund. Apparently there's some debate
Speaker 1: about the genetics of a goat. I would I wonder
Speaker 1: what the retail price of a goat is. I wonder
Speaker 1: what she's looking for in compensation. Yeah, I know that racehorses.
Speaker 1: That when the Kentucky Derby go to stud but goats
Speaker 1: the same same thing for the goats. Is that Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a hell of a question. Be sure to catch
Speaker 1: live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two
Speaker 1: am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and
Speaker 1: the I Heart Radio app. Oh here's a good one.
Speaker 1: Florida Man is our last floor. I don't have a
Speaker 1: few of them out. Florida man reportedly stole, crashed, and
Speaker 1: then abandoned a yacht, but not just any yacht, a
Speaker 1: yacht worth almost a million dollars. And this happened back
Speaker 1: in March. The guy was able to avoid the police
Speaker 1: for three months. He finally got arrest did recently and
Speaker 1: the guy he's twenty eight years old. He stole the
Speaker 1: boat from a dock in St. Petersburg, Florida, and then
Speaker 1: left it after crashing it into a channel marker pilling.
Speaker 1: According to the Sheriff's office, the boat then drifted into
Speaker 1: a nearby oyster bed and it was discovered by local
Speaker 1: deputies there and they were able to identify this guy
Speaker 1: because you know, not the brightest guy he is. Fingerprints
Speaker 1: were on the cabin door so and he he was
Speaker 1: charged to check this out. He was charged with grand
Speaker 1: theft vessel for the joy ride and faces up to
Speaker 1: thirty years in prison. And the yacht that was stolen
Speaker 1: to forty six ft long, one of those luxury yachts
Speaker 1: worth nine hundred thousand dollars. About that. That is good.
Speaker 1: If you're gonna joy ride, Miles will knock it out
Speaker 1: of the park. It's better than stealing a plastic boat,
Speaker 1: you know, those plastic blow up things. And anyway, all right,
Speaker 1: so that's Florida. Man, what do we have? We have
Speaker 1: those sports? Yeah? How about this? Doctors in Cambodia had
Speaker 1: to perform a little surgery on an older man Ben.
Speaker 1: They removed a leech that was stuck in him. It
Speaker 1: got through his crank and it sucked out a pint
Speaker 1: of blood from him while it was inside of him,
Speaker 1: A pint of blood as it entered through your crank.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine that? So is uh moneymaker? Is Johnson? Yeah?
Speaker 1: The big Sausage, Yeah, the Bigs, the big Sausage. But
Speaker 1: it became bigger because he had a leech in it. Wow,
Speaker 1: when are you going to Cambodia seeing the photo? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, yeah, Oh my god. The The Daily Oh
Speaker 1: my god, be sure to catch live editions of the
Speaker 1: Ben Maller Show weekdays at two a m. Eastern eleven pm.
Speaker 1: Sipping you get a chance that's that is a WinCE
Speaker 1: situations in the Daily Mail. Go to the Daily Mail
Speaker 1: and type in leech bladder swam up his penis. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, that is out of a horror movie. So
Speaker 1: we go from Cambodi. All right, inside, you gonna call
Speaker 1: that a hole in one, right, But I'm bumped there, man,
Speaker 1: how about this in the United States, we want to
Speaker 1: do something a little bit different with our doctors. Ben
Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars wants to bring in a new crew.
Speaker 1: Can you guess which professional now is among the contestants
Speaker 1: that will be on or wants to be approached on
Speaker 1: Dancing with the Stars. All right, so they've done politicians,
Speaker 1: they've done comedians, athletes, They've done a lot of athletes there.
Speaker 1: So this has to be something outside the box. But
Speaker 1: it's got to be something of celebrity though, right, because yeah,
Speaker 1: trying to think they've done magicians, they've done I'm trying
Speaker 1: to think what other branches dancers. Obviously wouldn't matter her
Speaker 1: dances a dance show. I don't know what is it?
Speaker 1: It is none other than doctor Anthony Faucci. Oh really,
Speaker 1: oh wow? We ru when Trump's guy? What it was
Speaker 1: white house speakers? He did it? No, it was the
Speaker 1: redheaded guy, chubby redheaded guy. Oh um, yeah, forget his name?
Speaker 1: How soon we forget? Yeah? I didn't he go on there?
Speaker 1: I think he did. He did, He was not. It
Speaker 1: was not well received. But I know exactly what you're
Speaker 1: talking about. Just come to my mind. Um. But but yeah,
Speaker 1: so now we got Now we got Dr Anthony Faucci
Speaker 1: potentially going on Dancing with the Stars. Now, is he
Speaker 1: gonna wear a mask or not a mask? No? I
Speaker 1: think he's gonna go. I think he'll take some caloric
Speaker 1: quinn before he goes on on stage. So he allowed.
Speaker 1: Isn't he supposed to be running the pandemic make it
Speaker 1: all that? Well? Yeah, of course, but this will be
Speaker 1: after he's done. This will be after the pandemic ends,
Speaker 1: if it ever ends. Yeah, I think I think with
Speaker 1: with good reason, right, or maybe he does. What can
Speaker 1: you do that would require six ft of separation on
Speaker 1: the dance? I mean, obviously you can't do the waltz,
Speaker 1: but you can't be making any kind of contact with
Speaker 1: the with your partners. So how do you go well?
Speaker 1: When I was dancing when I was younger. Women, when
Speaker 1: you get morbidly obese and you don't have anyone around you,
Speaker 1: they don't want to dance near you. So that's my advice.
Speaker 1: That is some nickel dime advice. There. Just just become
Speaker 1: a big fat tubago and then no one will want
Speaker 1: to no one will want to be around you at all.
Speaker 1: Are you trying to say that you never you never
Speaker 1: did the jitterbug in the day? Yeah? No, I mean,
Speaker 1: my wife's dragging on the dance floor a few times,
Speaker 1: but I didn't when I was younger, I did not
Speaker 1: do the boogie woogie. Did not. Well. At least it
Speaker 1: will see at least you have a good partner in crime.
Speaker 1: Now that'll bring you out of your your comfort zone.
Speaker 1: Now I can do the choo or the Charleston or yeah,
Speaker 1: and now and the next thing, we do you do
Speaker 1: any of that? Now? Do you do any of that
Speaker 1: in public? Now? That's the question. I know you guys
Speaker 1: so much alcohol I've had. If I know anyone in
Speaker 1: the room that'll take photos and shame me forever on
Speaker 1: social media. I knew. When I was a kid, the
Speaker 1: only dance I did was we go to the skating
Speaker 1: rink and they did the hokey pokey put your right
Speaker 1: foot in, you take your right foot out, you put
Speaker 1: your right foot in, and you shake it all about
Speaker 1: and do you do the hokey poke Yeah, and you
Speaker 1: turn yourself around. And that's what it's all about. I
Speaker 1: know that this is uh. I know this is not
Speaker 1: a surprise to you, but Walt Disney Company announced earlier
Speaker 1: this week that Splash Mountains gonna be changing things around
Speaker 1: a little bit. They have a song associated with it
Speaker 1: for the nineteen six films, Song of the South. That's
Speaker 1: a great song, it is, but they're now really dude,
Speaker 1: does it pitty day? Yeah, my, oh my on a
Speaker 1: wonderful day. Well they're now taking that out, So yeah,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be the ride itself. Will be rebranding some
Speaker 1: rap music in there instead. What are they gonna do?
Speaker 1: I don't know. It will be something anti police, I'm sure, yes,
Speaker 1: police suck. You're all racist? And uh, and here's a waterfall.
Speaker 1: Do you think we're gonna do that with uh? I
Speaker 1: mean we've already done it with with college athletics. But
Speaker 1: do we just run the full gamut of professional and
Speaker 1: amateur sports teams that have to rebrand themselves. Yeah, well again,
Speaker 1: this is something I was ahead of my time on.
Speaker 1: I am pat myself on the back like paddle Bryan would, Um,
Speaker 1: we should get pattle Brian on the pie. Did you
Speaker 1: think you would do it? Oh? Yeah, of course, I
Speaker 1: think it would be more fitting I do that video
Speaker 1: style though. Could you imagine like what he's doing behind
Speaker 1: the scenes. Oh yeah, p that's that's out there. But
Speaker 1: I'll get pets number. I can get him. Um. Anyway,
Speaker 1: what was it ution? I completely forgot. I got distracted
Speaker 1: by pedal Brown. Oh yeah, well yeah, I was ahead
Speaker 1: of my time on this because I used to do
Speaker 1: rants like ten, twelve, thirteen years ago that everything is offensive,
Speaker 1: and I would do a bit where people would call
Speaker 1: up and try to stump me, you know, it stumped
Speaker 1: the mallard, Well that's not offensive, and they'd call up
Speaker 1: with these these things, which they were like, wow, come on,
Speaker 1: you know you you cannot possibly find this innocuous team
Speaker 1: name the Browns offended, you know, offensive or something like that.
Speaker 1: It's just the color brown. It was actually named after
Speaker 1: a guy, but I was like, no, no, some people
Speaker 1: use that as a you know, racist turn you go,
Speaker 1: you go down. And animals obviously is easy because animal
Speaker 1: rights wackos get very upset by that. And there's literally nothing,
Speaker 1: there is nothing that can be named. Somebody who said
Speaker 1: that the biggest one, the most harmless one, was the jets,
Speaker 1: But that's objectionable to people that think jets are ruining
Speaker 1: the environment, right, and that the chem trails and all
Speaker 1: the stuff coming out of jets, that's that's had really offensive.
Speaker 1: The Notre Dame fighting, Irish, the fighting a lion I
Speaker 1: of Illinois, terrible fighting, endorsing violence, endorsing violence. The wolverine,
Speaker 1: how about the wolverine? Ho how many people have died
Speaker 1: because of wolverines over the yse What about their ancestors
Speaker 1: to their lives? Not matter what about them? Come on,
Speaker 1: please go down the list. I mean, we can't report
Speaker 1: the facts anymore and say that it's black and white
Speaker 1: that could be. Can't do that, that's right? Uh. The
Speaker 1: lakers offensive. People have died in a lot of accidents
Speaker 1: at lakes and it's you know, people get skin cancer
Speaker 1: from laying out in the sun by the lake. They
Speaker 1: die boating accidents of the Lake Dead and the Lakers
Speaker 1: are mocking that the Lakers are mocking people's pain must

Speaker 1: you cancel the Laker name? Well, we got the Tomahawk
Speaker 1: chop canceled in Atlantis. Since there's no no, no, be
Speaker 1: sure to catch live edition. So the Ben Maller Show
Speaker 1: weekdays at two am Eastern eleven p m. Pacific. How
Speaker 1: about this? Uh? In? In the UK, a company, now
Speaker 1: a plastics company, has developed a personal mobile plastic shield
Speaker 1: for use by the general public. Um. Ben. Basically, this
Speaker 1: is almost a full blown tube that's on top of
Speaker 1: your head. It is like a It is like a
Speaker 1: clear transparent trash can that you're wearing over your head
Speaker 1: and over the top of your shoulders as uh as
Speaker 1: a ppe device for you. Would you be down to
Speaker 1: wear that? Uh? No, I'm I'm I'm good. I don't
Speaker 1: know you your styler guest gun gonna sign up for that?
Speaker 1: That sounds like something west of the four oh five
Speaker 1: that you'd be down with, no, no chance in hell.
Speaker 1: It's how about this? Um? Do you remember that Wendy's
Speaker 1: that was burned down in Atlanta. Yes, yeah, that's not
Speaker 1: how I remember my Wendy's experience. But yeah, he gone.
Speaker 1: Good news. The woman that was accused of setting fire
Speaker 1: to that Wendy's, she's been sent home. She's been ordered
Speaker 1: to wear an ankle monitor and just remain on a
Speaker 1: house arrest and stay off social media right now, and
Speaker 1: due to the coronavirus outbreak. Really, yeah, that's nice. So
Speaker 1: you're allowed to torch a Wendy's you get a thing
Speaker 1: on your ankle? How that works? Molok top cocktail into
Speaker 1: a police cruiser in New York. You're gonna go as
Speaker 1: long as you're an attorney or very lady like. I
Speaker 1: gotta tell you that, I'm all for equality. Women are
Speaker 1: just as capable of torching and vandalizing and pillaging as man,
Speaker 1: So good for the ladies. Rule a lot. I'm a woman,
Speaker 1: hear me, roar or burn you. Rule a lot only
Speaker 1: applies if you're going to church. You're going to the
Speaker 1: park with your kids. Are out here in Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: If you go to you can't say church. They're trying
Speaker 1: to cancer religion. Guess you can't do that. Religion is bad,
Speaker 1: My bad, my bad, my bad. Don't Mark because the
Speaker 1: Marxists don't like religion. Right, my wrong on this read
Speaker 1: that when I was a kid that Marxist don't like religious. Um,
Speaker 1: so we're we're done with that. But I have a
Speaker 1: couple of stories that, yeah, I sent to you, but
Speaker 1: apparently he didn't see. How about this Pakistan and I've
Speaker 1: never been to Pakistan. I actually met a senior political
Speaker 1: figure from Pakistan when I was in Boston that was
Speaker 1: in line at a pizza place, and he had a
Speaker 1: Pakistanian flag on his shirt and I asked him, I said,
Speaker 1: what what is that? I didn't know, I didn't know
Speaker 1: what country was. I am very naively asked him, and
Speaker 1: he told me he was a very nice man, very
Speaker 1: polite man from Pakistan, and he was traveling to negotiate
Speaker 1: deals because a lot of the banks are headquartered in Boston.
Speaker 1: And he said he comes. He would come to America,
Speaker 1: as I remember the story, he would come several times
Speaker 1: a year and he would do like the I nine quarter.
Speaker 1: He'd go to Boston worked the banks. He'd go down
Speaker 1: to Wall Street to butter the biscuits of Wall Street,
Speaker 1: and then he'd go to d C for the politicians.
Speaker 1: Do you do the I nine quarter? And but a
Speaker 1: very nice guy. He was, you know, big, big smile
Speaker 1: and nice and told some good stories there while we
Speaker 1: were wait in line at Regina Pizza, which is appropriately
Speaker 1: named not after that listener in in in Minnesota. But anyway,
Speaker 1: so it's a Pakistan story. Almost one in three pilots
Speaker 1: almost that's a weel word. But one in three pilots
Speaker 1: in Pakistan have fake licenses, but they're flying playing what
Speaker 1: could possibly man? That's good. Remember there's a guy you
Speaker 1: probably don't know before your tip. Stun Nahan was his
Speaker 1: famous you know, all right? Stu was like a famous
Speaker 1: l a sportscaster. He was also in Rocky four, Yes,
Speaker 1: and was he in Fast Times that Ridgemont High? Was
Speaker 1: he in that also? I think he might have been,
Speaker 1: But anyway, it doesn't matter. So Stu was a friend,
Speaker 1: milder friend. I knew him a little bit when I
Speaker 1: first started. He had been in the business for I
Speaker 1: watched him on television as a kid, and Stu in
Speaker 1: the dining room at Dodger Stadium would regale us with
Speaker 1: stories because he was a pilot and he was always
Speaker 1: trying to convince people to fly and I remember he
Speaker 1: talked to these other the writers and the media guys,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to fly. You know, it's not
Speaker 1: safe and all that. I don't want to fly, and
Speaker 1: uh and Stu had this great line is listen, the
Speaker 1: only time it's dangerous is when you take off in
Speaker 1: your land. When you're flying. It's once you get in
Speaker 1: the sky, you're it was gonna this whole ran. It
Speaker 1: was hilarious. The only time it's dangerous when you take off,
Speaker 1: the rest of it's okay. Yeah, I was. I was.
Speaker 1: I was talking to my dad about this because we
Speaker 1: were watching some behind the scenes footage from the original
Speaker 1: Top Gun and so Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson obviously
Speaker 1: were the guys behind all of this, and they were
Speaker 1: talking about the partnership with with with our military and
Speaker 1: our government on how to make this thing happen. But
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated to know now that there are certain points
Speaker 1: because they were talking about how Tom Cruise and all
Speaker 1: the other actors that were in this they would go
Speaker 1: up and immediately they'd be sick to their stomach, and
Speaker 1: that's obviously because of the force behind the way they
Speaker 1: were flying and the tubes in your ears. Obviously you're
Speaker 1: getting thrown all the way around. It makes you nauseous
Speaker 1: and want to throw up. But he said that planes
Speaker 1: now in certain instances, um, they can sense that when
Speaker 1: a pilot blacks out or passes out, that the planes
Speaker 1: will just fly themselves, which is really Yeah, it's just
Speaker 1: it's fascinating to me. Obviously, uh, you know, with modern
Speaker 1: day technology and whatnot. But yeah, I mean you have
Speaker 1: to become so in tune physically with the way that
Speaker 1: the force and the torque from the plane and obviously
Speaker 1: the velocity, but it's just the it's the little it's
Speaker 1: your the tubes and your ears, and in the way
Speaker 1: that it's it catches your senses. It uh, it costs you.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's like vertigo right where you're when you're
Speaker 1: losing your equilibrium. It's the same thing when you're when
Speaker 1: you're a pilot and you're flying, you have that that
Speaker 1: g force that's behind you. You've got to become acqulimated
Speaker 1: to it physically or otherwise you're you're knocked out, you know.
Speaker 1: Anytime I hear, well, not anytime I don't usually hear
Speaker 1: what you just said about the planes that will fly themselves.
Speaker 1: I'm reminded. I was on the radio local radio and
Speaker 1: l A, the Bet and Dave show mid days in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles, higher higher rated than any of the midday
Speaker 1: shows on in l A. Right now, how about that?
Speaker 1: Put that in your pipe and smoking. But anyway, so
Speaker 1: Payne Stewart, we were on the air, remember that Payne
Speaker 1: Stewart story. Guess he was He had won a bunch
Speaker 1: of PGA tour events and his plane was floating. It
Speaker 1: was the uh when they say it like boats that
Speaker 1: don't have ghost ships, you know, they say that it
Speaker 1: was a ghost plane. Yeah where I mean people were there,
Speaker 1: but they weren't. I guess it passed out and the
Speaker 1: plane just kept flying until it ran out of gas
Speaker 1: and it crashed in the in the hills around South Dakota.
Speaker 1: And uh, it's just it's crazy. You know. ESPN did
Speaker 1: this I think two weeks ago or three weeks ago,
Speaker 1: but they actually used Google Maps to track Royal Holiday's flight.
Speaker 1: It was it was pretty surreal. Obviously didn't have a plane,
Speaker 1: but they had a way that you can track the
Speaker 1: way that he flew when he was like the like
Speaker 1: he was a blue angel. Uh. I was just mind
Speaker 1: fucking boggling to me what he did and how load
Speaker 1: of the ground or the load of the water he
Speaker 1: was before ultimately he met his demise. Wasn't it like
Speaker 1: a week before they almost crashed into a bridge. He
Speaker 1: flew under the bridge in Florida? There all right, one
Speaker 1: more of my version of don't stick to sports. Do
Speaker 1: you see this thing out of Michigan? The library, the
Speaker 1: public library there in Michigan is warning people who are
Speaker 1: out of an abundance of caution trying to sanitize their
Speaker 1: books by putting them in the microwave. Apparently that's not
Speaker 1: a good idea. That's not a good idea. Gas on
Speaker 1: the Kent District Library in Kent County, Michigan as nineteen
Speaker 1: different branches and they're asking people listen, um, don't microwave
Speaker 1: a book. They posted a message on social media during
Speaker 1: the quarantine as a reminder that quarantined return mits yeals
Speaker 1: for seventy two quarantine books for seventy two hours. And
Speaker 1: they send some pictures out of what will happen when
Speaker 1: you microwave a book. The radio frequency tags in all
Speaker 1: materials have metal in them, so like library puts metal
Speaker 1: in them and then they catch fire. How about this
Speaker 1: next time? Why don't you just wrap your book in tinfoil?
Speaker 1: How about Yeah? That is great surprise surprise burn are you?
Speaker 1: Are you reading any good books? Right? No? Huh, I
Speaker 1: am not. You know, I read so much during the
Speaker 1: week on different news stories. That's where I get most
Speaker 1: of my reading. I don't have a lot of leisure
Speaker 1: time to read, although this weekend I probably have done that,
Speaker 1: even though we're doing this podcast on a time machine,
Speaker 1: because I've got some downtime and I've got some time
Speaker 1: to kill, so I'll probably open up some random book.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll read my infomercial book again, which I like
Speaker 1: a lot, some of the sales tricks that infomercials use.
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. You want to get to mail backs?
Speaker 1: Do that? All right, let's try. The goal is to
Speaker 1: get to all of these questions. Guests got as many
Speaker 1: of them as we can, so try to limit our
Speaker 1: answers to like one or two minutes combined, and then
Speaker 1: we can move on to the next Understand all right,
Speaker 1: So these are actual questions sent in by actual listeners
Speaker 1: like yourself. You have submitted them. Most of them have
Speaker 1: come in from the from the Facebook page, which is
Speaker 1: Ben Mallow Show, and usually Wednesday afternoon. Lately it's been
Speaker 1: Wednesday night. I will post something and I will say, hey,
Speaker 1: I am called the action. I need your help help
Speaker 1: me send some questions. And you guys have been great,
Speaker 1: and so I thank you very much. You got about
Speaker 1: a day to do it. You got about a day
Speaker 1: to submit the questions when I put the post up,
Speaker 1: and then you can also if you don't want to
Speaker 1: have your questions seen by the masses, you can put
Speaker 1: your question up or if you're not on Facebook, Real
Speaker 1: fifth Hour at gmail dot com, Real fifth Hour at
Speaker 1: gmail dot com. We actually start with some questions from
Speaker 1: the Real fifth Hour at gmail dot com email address.
Speaker 1: This is from who is this from Al in Cleveland.
Speaker 1: He says he was born and raised in Cleveland and
Speaker 1: lives in Cincinnati. Take that, Sam White, that's a great,
Speaker 1: great tribute. Now one of my favorite drops. We don't
Speaker 1: plan anymore because before everyone's time. But Sam wife on
Speaker 1: the p A system at Riverfront Stadium. You LEVI in Cleveland,
Speaker 1: you know all right? Uh? He says, I loved Mike
Speaker 1: North when he did the morning show here, and then
Speaker 1: I was upset that the company got rid of Mike
Speaker 1: I love Mike also, and he says, I love your
Speaker 1: interview with North, but I think Doc Mike is actually
Speaker 1: Mike North. Is my conspiracy theory. Correct. Well, al, if
Speaker 1: you listen closely to that Mike North podcast. And I've
Speaker 1: known Mike for several years and I consider Mike a
Speaker 1: radio brother. But I did at one point call him
Speaker 1: Doc Mike. I did start. I don't know if I
Speaker 1: finished the Doc Mike, but I started calling him. I
Speaker 1: was about to say Doc Mike because he has the
Speaker 1: same deep dish Chicago accent as as our guy Doc Mike.
Speaker 1: So it was I did catch myself doing that. But
Speaker 1: I've not seen Doc Mike and Mike North in the
Speaker 1: same room. Well, so, I don't know. I could promise
Speaker 1: you this, Mike North would never drink his or anyone
Speaker 1: else's piss. No, that is true. He would not do that.
Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk lineup in
Speaker 1: the nation. Catch all of our shows at Fox sports
Speaker 1: Radio dot com and within the I Heart Radio app
Speaker 1: search f s R to listen live. This is a
Speaker 1: another one. I did not write the name down there.
Speaker 1: Oh it's Benny. I think. Just listen to the podcast
Speaker 1: with Mike North. Fantastic. I used to listen to him
Speaker 1: and Andy on Fox, but this podcast with him was
Speaker 1: just great. Uh, you should do a weekly or monthly
Speaker 1: one hour with him on events. It would be awesome. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm all for putting Mike North on again. I think
Speaker 1: we have one every week. He's gonna want to check though,
Speaker 1: and we we don't even get paid for this, so
Speaker 1: how is he going to get paid for this? But
Speaker 1: maybe once every other month we should have a rotation?
Speaker 1: Should we have like a rotation gascon of people that
Speaker 1: we kind of go through. I wouldn't mind having Ax
Speaker 1: on every couple of months. Yeah. I like the vaulatile
Speaker 1: guests that we have on, like Mike North, Vaulatle, Lenny Diaster,
Speaker 1: volatile like people like that that can really stir the
Speaker 1: like we should have Lenny come back. We should do
Speaker 1: another Lenny podcast and talk about the upcoming baseball season
Speaker 1: and we can talk about Lenny. Of course, it's more
Speaker 1: fun to talk about the nonsense in Lenny's life, right.
Speaker 1: I remember distributing that content to two media folks and
Speaker 1: and the responses I got, no thanks, no way, hard paths.
Speaker 1: Like all this ship, there was a lot of media
Speaker 1: folks that would not want to touch anything to do
Speaker 1: with Lenny Diaster, which is great. Yeah, it's just shows
Speaker 1: you where you're you want to gravitate towards Lenny. When
Speaker 1: you hear that anyway, Neo on the email says yes, yes, yes.
Speaker 1: To the YouTube channel. It was more intimate and personal
Speaker 1: to watch you guys visually and to hear you at
Speaker 1: the same time. The gesture, the gestures and all with
Speaker 1: it will be fun. I already enjoy your short YouTube
Speaker 1: clips men, just like Joe Rogan, rich Roll, etcetera. There
Speaker 1: are lots of podcasts on YouTube that get views. Please
Speaker 1: do it. Yeah, listen, Neil, we are working on something
Speaker 1: that will probably announce at a different date. Here's some
Speaker 1: video vehicle that we're gonna do, so I'm excited about that.
Speaker 1: I don't think we're allowed to put this on YouTube,
Speaker 1: are we? I don't know are we? Are we allowed?
Speaker 1: If we did it live and not taped or something
Speaker 1: like that, Yeah, that'd be Yeah, that'd be quite a challenge. Plus,
Speaker 1: if we're gonna do this, I would need, as you
Speaker 1: said to me a couple of weeks ago, I need whiskey.
Speaker 1: You need whiskey. Yeah, we would have because we'd also
Speaker 1: I think that the important part two. So you'd want
Speaker 1: to have live engagement too. So I would like to
Speaker 1: have if you're able to have a rolling timeline of
Speaker 1: people that are engaged, whether it's Facebook or Twitter, their
Speaker 1: questions or comments or whatever like that, that we can have. Well,
Speaker 1: remember what would John Sterling taught us on Friday, The
Speaker 1: most important things to sell the soul. The broadcasting part
Speaker 1: is not the most important part. He's absolutely correct on that, right.
Speaker 1: I have often pointed out over the years that my
Speaker 1: job is just filler between commercial My job is to
Speaker 1: just get you to listen between the next commercials that
Speaker 1: come on the air. That's pretty much it. Between the
Speaker 1: next time I say Geico, Yeah, all right, Jason, And
Speaker 1: these are Facebook questions now Jason and Rocky Mon Virginia says, Hey, guys,
Speaker 1: do you know the name of the hospital you were
Speaker 1: born in and what city? I'll assume California for both
Speaker 1: of you. I was at Proctor's Hospital in beautiful Pia, Illinois.
Speaker 1: That's great, Jason, Peory, Illinois. I used to love the
Speaker 1: fact I Ralph. A lot of l A broadcasters worked
Speaker 1: in Peoria. Ralph Lawlor, the old voice of the Clippers,
Speaker 1: Chick Herne, who had been the voice of the Lakers.
Speaker 1: I think Bob Miller also. Didn't Bob Miller do a
Speaker 1: stint in Purey, Illinois, I don't remember. I think he
Speaker 1: was in Wisconsin for a bit. I think you might
Speaker 1: be anyway, pure Is like was the test market. They
Speaker 1: felt that was a represent the marketing people felt that
Speaker 1: was a representation of the United States. So whatever new
Speaker 1: food products, they would test it out in Peory, Illinois.
Speaker 1: Now it's Columbus, Ohio, is where they test stuff out.
Speaker 1: But as far as your your question, Jason, I do
Speaker 1: not remember the name of the hospital. I was born
Speaker 1: in Fullerton, uh in the or in o c. Right
Speaker 1: down the street from where cow State Fullerton is the
Speaker 1: campus there. So there's a hospital not far away from there,
Speaker 1: and that's where I was born. What about you, gas Gun.
Speaker 1: I was born in the wonderful city of San Pedro,
Speaker 1: San Pedro, California, so long long time ago. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I think the name of it's the Little Company of Mary.
Speaker 1: So you're gonna say, oh, a little company. There's a
Speaker 1: few of those hospitals, so you say San Pedro born
Speaker 1: San Pedro, Bread and when I die, I'll be San
Speaker 1: Pedro hopefully not. No, no, I'm gonna move. You're looking
Speaker 1: to check out. Yeah, we gotta gonna you know, gotta upgrade.
Speaker 1: And when your wife to the four of five, you're
Speaker 1: always looking for something bigger and better, all right, Kentucky
Speaker 1: Tay writes in shut up, um, you know you just
Speaker 1: go a little first, go out in the middy ocean.
Speaker 1: All right? How about that, Kentucky tastes as My grandmother's
Speaker 1: best recipe was chicken and dressing. What is your grandmother's
Speaker 1: most famous dish man, I'll tell you what two of
Speaker 1: them for my my grandma Martha God Rest her soul. Um,
Speaker 1: her and her two sisters would make the best to
Speaker 1: Molly's Mexican side of the families from Guadalajara, and we
Speaker 1: would do it for usually the Rose Bowl, or we
Speaker 1: would do it Major from Major Holiday. But yeah, to
Speaker 1: Molly's from my grandmother and her two sisters the best.
Speaker 1: And then my grandmother also made a delicious apricot pie
Speaker 1: and we would we would actually have the pie cold.
Speaker 1: I've never had apricut pies. I good. She did a wonderfully.
Speaker 1: It was amazing, little sugar on top those are anything
Speaker 1: with sugar. I know those are the bread and butters
Speaker 1: for for Grandma Martha. Yeah, with me, it was some
Speaker 1: of the traditional Jewish food mats of ball soup fondly remember,
Speaker 1: and that's been passed down from generations, you know, like
Speaker 1: the Jewish soul food, you know that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's the one that pops into my head.
Speaker 1: But thank you. Tay Kentucky Tay not to be confused
Speaker 1: with Ohio te or North Dakota Te. Al right, false
Speaker 1: fan Jimmy from Fayetteville, Tennessee. Right, since this, Benn and Gago,
Speaker 1: if you were on death row and your last rites
Speaker 1: were about to be read, and what would your last
Speaker 1: meal be? And then we get asked this question a
Speaker 1: lot guests Gon and my answer usually is a twelve
Speaker 1: course meal served day apart. It would be the way
Speaker 1: I would I would do that. What would your final
Speaker 1: meal be? Gas? You know, I think it would be
Speaker 1: a nice forty ounce tomahawk if I could come through
Speaker 1: the microphone and uh slap you give you away, Molly whopping? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have you know. Steak for sure, like any any
Speaker 1: Japanese wagon is probably my favorite tap of steak. Um
Speaker 1: I hear that's pretty good. I should try that, you
Speaker 1: know it is. It's a little, it's a little, a little,
Speaker 1: you know it's it's good. Um. Mashed potatoes obviously a favorite,
Speaker 1: grilled or sauteed onions. And of course if you're eat
Speaker 1: meeting your demise, better have some alcohol with you too.
Speaker 1: Gotta be garlic mashed potatoes. You gotta have mixed of
Speaker 1: the garlic. Yeah. And and you gotta have French fries.
Speaker 1: No matter how you're going down, you gotta end with
Speaker 1: with French fries, al right. Next up Kenny in Toledo
Speaker 1: right sayings this this is the best question ever. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's how I praise ken high expectations. He says, what
Speaker 1: is the most epic way you've seen someone quit or
Speaker 1: be fired from a job? Bonus points? If you were
Speaker 1: the person quitting or terminated as the employee, well, the
Speaker 1: I would say this is the most legendary story in
Speaker 1: the history of Fox Sports Radio as far as people
Speaker 1: meeting their demise. In the early days, we didn't have
Speaker 1: many editors. Now we have a fair amount of people
Speaker 1: that do the dirty work and the grind behind the scenes,
Speaker 1: and the underappreciated, undervalued people that provide us with the
Speaker 1: great sound and do not get paid nearly enough and
Speaker 1: do not get nearly enough recognition for their hard work.
Speaker 1: But in the early days, we only have like one
Speaker 1: person that would be the editor for a shift and
Speaker 1: have to cover thirty games in basketball and hockey combined
Speaker 1: and whatever. So we had a guy who had a
Speaker 1: full on falling down meltdown. He was so overwhelmed by
Speaker 1: the work load and so piste off with the amount
Speaker 1: of money that he was making. He just in the
Speaker 1: middle of a shift, packed up his things, walked out
Speaker 1: and didn't call anyone, didn't tell anyone. The company thought
Speaker 1: he might have died. The company thought he might have died.
Speaker 1: They called in the police to do a wellness check
Speaker 1: on the guy because he didn't answer his phone for
Speaker 1: like three or four days after he had left his
Speaker 1: shift and didn't show up to work. So they were
Speaker 1: like trying to figure out what's going on. They called
Speaker 1: in the police, and finally, of course the police did
Speaker 1: well at check. They tracked the guy down and he said,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be contacted, I'm done, that's it,
Speaker 1: and he just quit. He just like that's it. He
Speaker 1: had a meltdown and it just walked away. That's pretty good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's pretty freaking good. I I personally did one not
Speaker 1: as good as that. But my my second job I
Speaker 1: ever had, I was working I think it was for
Speaker 1: Vans or Lucky's, one of the grocery stores back in
Speaker 1: the day. Were you the shop shopping car boy, No,
Speaker 1: I was. I was. I was overnight stocking stock in
Speaker 1: the groceries. So my shift usually started at three or
Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning. UM. One Friday, I went
Speaker 1: down with some friends down to crash a frat party
Speaker 1: at San Diego State, a couple of friends that were
Speaker 1: going to San Diego State at the time. I was
Speaker 1: going to a junior college in l A. And UM,
Speaker 1: I connected with a girl that was there and we
Speaker 1: went back to her place, and all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: one thing, one thing went to another guest gun one
Speaker 1: thing led to another, and I noticed the time and
Speaker 1: going to Pound town. Yeah yeah, And obviously the drive
Speaker 1: from l A to San Diego and back and forth
Speaker 1: this two hours. So I saw the time. Uh, I
Speaker 1: saw that I would not get back to work in time.
Speaker 1: So I called my my manager at work, and I said, hey,
Speaker 1: I'm out, and he's like, what do you mean you're out?
Speaker 1: Are you sick or not filingall? I was like, no,
Speaker 1: I'm I'm I'm out. I'm not coming back. Probably never
Speaker 1: saw that lady again, No I know I did not
Speaker 1: ever see you did not see you don't know for
Speaker 1: one night of joy, you lost it, like you said,
Speaker 1: for better or for worse. There you go, Jack in
Speaker 1: Greensboro right side, He says, this is for gascn. We
Speaker 1: are all well aware that a person who was rides
Speaker 1: west of the four oh five. You are almost However,
Speaker 1: even Superman has a weakness. What's your weakness or the
Speaker 1: area in your life that you fall short? That's from
Speaker 1: Jack in Greensboro. It's a it's a kind of a
Speaker 1: loaded question. Um, you're gonna take debait. I think I
Speaker 1: think more so now in my thirties than in my twenties.
Speaker 1: I actually worry more about what people say or think,
Speaker 1: and and I think part of that is because as
Speaker 1: you worry more now, yeah, yeah, oh I worry less.
Speaker 1: I worry less. I used to be so self conscious
Speaker 1: being the big fat guy and all that everyone's looking
Speaker 1: at you. You're like you got the plague or something
Speaker 1: like that, And now I don't give a funk. I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't really care people. Everyone's got their own agenda
Speaker 1: and everyone's fucked up, so I don't really care. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but the way that the media is and social media
Speaker 1: is that everybody knows everything about you now or they
Speaker 1: can get into your life and everything. They know what
Speaker 1: you present. And we got colors that are fans of
Speaker 1: your show that will call the station and ask people
Speaker 1: questions about us, like I know that specifically, I have
Speaker 1: producers that tell me, Hey, this guy called looking want
Speaker 1: to know this about you. I want to know like
Speaker 1: where you're at or what you're doing like like that. Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I I know that. That's that really spooked my wife
Speaker 1: when I when she we started getting into a relationship
Speaker 1: and I announced, you know, was was with her, and
Speaker 1: because then the guys were trying to find out stuff
Speaker 1: about her and Stocker mentality, like, listen, I appreciate a
Speaker 1: big fan of the show, and I know we're public
Speaker 1: figures and all that, but there is a certain point,
Speaker 1: you know, when you're snooping around it becomes slightly creepy,
Speaker 1: slightly creepy, you know, and so see, I guess going
Speaker 1: back to Jack's question, you know, playing sports and whatnot,
Speaker 1: you have the like a one track mind that you're
Speaker 1: only competing, you're only doing this, and you're not only
Speaker 1: doing that. You're like, you're not worried about anything else,
Speaker 1: no outside influence, nothing else. And I just thought about
Speaker 1: myself and and me only, Like I guess sympathy and
Speaker 1: empathy weren't in my vocabulary at the time. And now
Speaker 1: that I've gotten older, you know, the sympathy the empathy
Speaker 1: have come along. And just a bleeding heart. You're just
Speaker 1: a bleeding heart, like I don't. Yeah, it's a little annoying,
Speaker 1: but sometimes the noise gets inside of my head and I,
Speaker 1: you know, you kind of think and you know, listen
Speaker 1: to what other people saying. So I guess that's a drawback,
Speaker 1: it's a weakness. It is Mark in so Cow writes
Speaker 1: and he says, if a city opened up for sporting events,
Speaker 1: would you go? I think that's what you're saying. He
Speaker 1: was an extra word in here, but I think that's
Speaker 1: what well Mark, I have considered this. I know California
Speaker 1: is likely not gonna have anybody for a while. Let's
Speaker 1: go to Scottsdale, and I was thinking in Texas. I
Speaker 1: was thinking going to Houston. If the Dodgers play in Houston.
Speaker 1: I'm seriously considering if you can get some tickets to
Speaker 1: the I don't know, is it. Am I gonna get
Speaker 1: crap like Tom Brady got crap? If I have a
Speaker 1: get together with some some listeners during the apocalypse in
Speaker 1: a different state. Though it's Texas, so it's allowed and
Speaker 1: all that. Yeah, I'll just call it a protest and
Speaker 1: little wheel okay, and then we'll be all right. But
Speaker 1: it would be a protest. It's a protest against the astro. Yeah,
Speaker 1: But I am thinking about the Dodgers play in Houston.
Speaker 1: I haven't seen the schedule. I don't know if it's
Speaker 1: out yet. Maybe it is, I didn't see it. If
Speaker 1: they play in Houston, that would be one I would
Speaker 1: be at. That would be one I would be down with.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised you didn't say Arizona because at least in
Speaker 1: Arizona you can drive there. If you go to Texas,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to fly. Uh yeah, I mean I'd
Speaker 1: fly to you know, Texas, whatever, and hang on, I
Speaker 1: get friends there. My buddy lives in Dallas, which is
Speaker 1: a million miles from from Houston, and I could do that.
Speaker 1: And that guy John and san Antonio, he said he's
Speaker 1: gonna drive to Houston. If we go to Houston, he'll
Speaker 1: go hang out. Can we can we ask your your
Speaker 1: big fan, I'm a pilot to charter us a flight
Speaker 1: we can make our way down? Yes, he will say, Yes,
Speaker 1: I can charter you a flight. Write me a check
Speaker 1: for a hundred thousand dollars and I'll start to you
Speaker 1: a flight, book out the seven seven for us, and
Speaker 1: you let us pay for the gas. Uh. I wonder
Speaker 1: how much it would cost a charter a flight l
Speaker 1: a Houston. That's a good question. Could you imagine that
Speaker 1: because you're booking economy economy plasts and then business class. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's gotta be. That's gonna be a whole bunch of
Speaker 1: dough h Here's one from Ben in Charleston, West Virginia.
Speaker 1: Ben ass Hey, Ben, when the NBA playoffs commence, will
Speaker 1: Kauai lead the Clippers or will Paul George dragged the Clippers? Well, Ben,
Speaker 1: this is obvious. Listen, it's all the one thing about
Speaker 1: the NBA has all script, it's all core a graph,
Speaker 1: it's all manufactured it's Kauai in the bubble. The Clippers
Speaker 1: are made for winning a championship in the bubble. And
Speaker 1: the greatest thing about this is that it's gonna annoy
Speaker 1: the hell out of the historians because they were hoping
Speaker 1: if the Clippers won, at least they'd have a parade
Speaker 1: and all that, and they can mock the low number
Speaker 1: of Clipper fans there. Maybe like that that political pissing
Speaker 1: match between the the Trump people and the Democrats, the
Speaker 1: Hillary people or the Obamba people. Well, gow many more
Speaker 1: people were at this sign, you know, this president being
Speaker 1: sworn in and that president being sworn in, and we
Speaker 1: would have been one of those kind of things. But
Speaker 1: now the Clippers don't have to worry about that. They
Speaker 1: can win. They don't have to worry about a parade
Speaker 1: or anything like that, and it'll be great. And Kauai
Speaker 1: doesn't care about the fans, playing for the fans and
Speaker 1: all that. So Kauai is going to lead the way.
Speaker 1: Just get everyone get out of the way. Joe kim
Speaker 1: Noah and Kauahi Leonard former Defensive Player of the Year
Speaker 1: Joe kim Noah now a Clipper. For the rest of
Speaker 1: the year, they're they're set up, they're good, they're golden
Speaker 1: something they're gonna get. Everyone's gonna get a gold Star
Speaker 1: after they win Lakers Clippers Western Conference Finals and then
Speaker 1: you'll get Milwaukee out of the East. So Lakers Clippers
Speaker 1: Western Conference Finals in Orlando doesn't get anymore l a
Speaker 1: than that, right, at least they get the palm trees
Speaker 1: and the sunshine. Eric in Minnesota rites, and he says,
Speaker 1: Power Hour with Blake Snowflake Snell or Bubba Smollette, Lots
Speaker 1: of which one do you want? I'd take either listen.
Speaker 1: That would be great for the downloads and the podcast
Speaker 1: numbers and all that that either one of those would
Speaker 1: be good. Um, So yeah, bring it on. If they
Speaker 1: want to come on the podcast, contact This will put
Speaker 1: them on. But I'd love to ask Blake how many
Speaker 1: hours a day he spends on Twitch as opposed to
Speaker 1: how many hours a day it spends on throwing a baseball,
Speaker 1: Guessing the one numbers higher than the other. Yeah, you'd
Speaker 1: probably get a lot of yes and no answers from
Speaker 1: Blake's snell, where you can get Wallace to elaborate a
Speaker 1: lot more on any kind of question you you throw
Speaker 1: his away, do you think. So, yeah, all right, I
Speaker 1: understand what I am. Maybe you can contact your guy
Speaker 1: Don Lemon and see if you're and he's got a number,
Speaker 1: you know. No, no, Well for a power hour, we
Speaker 1: can get Kyler murray on. That'd be great, be a
Speaker 1: short hour, fucking as Michael from Denver writes, and he says,
Speaker 1: why don't you answer me this one? Great, Benny. Now,
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Colin Kaepernick and his kneeling are
Speaker 1: good for the American citizen. Uh, yeah, I listen, Michael,
Speaker 1: lots Uh. That's what the media wants you to believe,
Speaker 1: that this is now a good thing, that this is
Speaker 1: now a positive thing. We will find out when these
Speaker 1: guys start kneeling, which is gonna happen in late July,
Speaker 1: if that's actually the case or not. And I know
Speaker 1: in the NFL specifically during that Kaepernick time, there were
Speaker 1: horrific booze and cat calls coming from the upper balcony
Speaker 1: to the players that were kneeling, um people in the
Speaker 1: stands and all that, and so I would imagine much
Speaker 1: of that's going to continue. But maybe I'm wrong. Maybe
Speaker 1: may the media is right, the mainstream media establishment is right,
Speaker 1: and that this now is a wonderful thing, and that
Speaker 1: you can't protest any other time than during the anthem.
Speaker 1: Even though they say the people that protest it's not
Speaker 1: about the anthem, but they have to do it during
Speaker 1: the anthem. The logic on that seems to be a
Speaker 1: little beyond me. I guess I'm not that smart though,
Speaker 1: guess working to figure that part out of it. If
Speaker 1: it's not about the A flag, it's not about the anthem,
Speaker 1: but you know you're offending people who think it is
Speaker 1: about that, but you won't stop doing it. I don't
Speaker 1: know is there a correlation or not a correlation. I
Speaker 1: can't figure that out. I'm not that right. I do
Speaker 1: know that it'll be a supersize because you'll get this
Speaker 1: in the NFL, You'll get in college football, you'll get
Speaker 1: it in the NBA. How about baseball opening Day? The
Speaker 1: sports Legacy first legacy sports League back, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: have the entire Texas Rangers on a knee, you know,
Speaker 1: like you know that's coming. And then but the amazing
Speaker 1: thing is that once everyone takes a knee, then the
Speaker 1: person that stands out that's the active protest standing up
Speaker 1: is then then you become the protester when you're standing
Speaker 1: up but everyone else has taken a knee. Just wait
Speaker 1: for the Houston NASCAR with a drop a knee. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that'll be that'll be fresh, that'll be the giant. That'll
Speaker 1: be the biggest funck off moment, I think for me
Speaker 1: in banjor League baseball. Yeah, well they are the most punchable, despisable,
Speaker 1: despicable team, Nathan in parts unknown. Right, since you think
Speaker 1: that all voters should have the choice to vote by mail,
Speaker 1: All right, guess goan you want to take that's right
Speaker 1: in your wheel here? Guess god you want to take
Speaker 1: that one? Hit that out of the park for I
Speaker 1: think no, I think that if if you have the
Speaker 1: ability to get your ass up and go to a
Speaker 1: ballot box, yeah, you go there and you actually bring
Speaker 1: your driver's license, Like this is a pretty interesting idea.
Speaker 1: But maybe bring a driver's license and a proof of identification,
Speaker 1: and then I think we should follow the Chicago guidelines
Speaker 1: where even if you've been dead for thirty years, you
Speaker 1: can still vote. How about that? Listen anyone that says
Speaker 1: that you should not be doing that? As off the rockers,
Speaker 1: I you know a couple of weeks ago, I tried
Speaker 1: buying a firearm here in California a gun. You tried
Speaker 1: to buy a guard? Bang? Bang. The The amount of
Speaker 1: of hurdles that I had to to leap over and
Speaker 1: just to purchase said firearm is absolutely amazing. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: so I don't know if you know this, guest gun,
Speaker 1: but the criminals amongst us don't have to follow those
Speaker 1: protocols to get a gun. They just have to call
Speaker 1: somebody and they go to the you know, the wrong
Speaker 1: side of the tracks, and then they figure it out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a little bit different. But no, get your asked of
Speaker 1: the voting center and go vote. Now. I do think
Speaker 1: now do you think there's voter or suppression, which Lebron
Speaker 1: James has been advocating. I think it's very hard to
Speaker 1: get registered to vote. I think there's probably suppression, and
Speaker 1: I also think there's voter fraud. I think both of
Speaker 1: those can can happen at the same time. I do
Speaker 1: think voting should be a national holiday, though, no, because
Speaker 1: then people won't vote. They won't you don't think they'll vote.
Speaker 1: You don't think it would have enough because our national
Speaker 1: holiday will be up barbecuing or something like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you don't barbecue all day, and you don't. It
Speaker 1: doesn't take forever to vote either. It doesn't take forever
Speaker 1: to vote. Yeah, well I know, but somebody you have
Speaker 1: wait in line and all that stuff. Yeahs pay uh
Speaker 1: Carlos and Houston right, since says, what is one show
Speaker 1: you guys used to watch as kids that you still
Speaker 1: watch now? I think anything still on? I guess there
Speaker 1: was a couple. Um my parents were big fans of
Speaker 1: sixty minutes, so I watched that. I don't really watch
Speaker 1: that much anymore than Sports Center. Sports Center. Yeah, uh
Speaker 1: Center with sports Oh yeah, that's now it's preaching to you,
Speaker 1: telling you how you're supposed to think. It's pretty good.
Speaker 1: Uh oh, I got Simpsons, I guess would be one
Speaker 1: that I still check out. I was younger when that started.
Speaker 1: It's been on for like thirty years or whatever, So
Speaker 1: I guess the Simpsons. You know, sometimes I always sometimes
Speaker 1: I always go back on YouTube to watch old game
Speaker 1: shows like I would watch Press Your Luck or Hollywood Squares.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you remember that. Um Remote Control
Speaker 1: is a good one on MTV, which was a game
Speaker 1: show with two contestants, and then that it's basically Jeopardy
Speaker 1: with music involved in pop culture. Yeah, those are some
Speaker 1: good ones. Jeopardy. Yeah, Jeopardy's on game shows prices, right,
Speaker 1: Let's make a Deal. I like to love that show.
Speaker 1: They brought that back. It's like several different versions of
Speaker 1: Let's make a Deal. Supermarket Sweep. I'll go, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: Supermarket Sweeps occasionally on Uh. There's an old game show
Speaker 1: channel that I have. I think it's called Buzzer. You
Speaker 1: eat the channel Buzzer as I like just they just
Speaker 1: put like old game shows, just like put old random game.
Speaker 1: It's pretty cool, like from the seventies and the eighties.
Speaker 1: And it's like, no way, I mean no way, I
Speaker 1: mean no way, I mean no one have Concentration. The
Speaker 1: game show Concentration was on there and a bunch of them,
Speaker 1: which is pretty But he go and then occasionally, usually
Speaker 1: like to two times a year, I'll fall into a
Speaker 1: rabbit hole watching this weekend baseball twib notes around the majors.
Speaker 1: The Cardinals are flying I in St. Louis. You know
Speaker 1: that crap with mel Allen. We referenced that with the
Speaker 1: great John Sterling who worked with mel Allen. So yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: So those are some of the shows. Carlos, thank you.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'll meet Carlos if I come to Houston this
Speaker 1: year to hang out and to see that. R J
Speaker 1: and San Antonio says, what conspiracy theory do you believe in?
Speaker 1: The most I got, there's a few of them that
Speaker 1: I buy. The Roswell New Mexico UFO landing. I believe
Speaker 1: that actually happened, and I believe that much of the
Speaker 1: technology that we have today, the advancements in technology since
Speaker 1: Roswell New Mexico, are related to that incident. I believe
Speaker 1: that that deep state Tinfoil had conspiracy. As far as
Speaker 1: sports are concerned, there's several conspiracies that I believe the
Speaker 1: Patrick Ewing Draft lottery being rigged. Um that is, I've
Speaker 1: heard from people in the NBA over the years that
Speaker 1: actually did happen. Speaking of the NBA, the Michael Jordan
Speaker 1: gambling suspension, I covered the NBA when he was suspended,
Speaker 1: and that's what I had been told that and then
Speaker 1: it came out they wrote a book. It was in
Speaker 1: the book Sam Smith. I believe it has been the
Speaker 1: one that mentioned that. So I absolutely believe that it
Speaker 1: was a atto suspension for Michael Jordan for gambling and
Speaker 1: hang out with some shady characters, and so they didn't
Speaker 1: want to embarrass him, but they worked out a deal
Speaker 1: so he can go play baseball for the White Sox
Speaker 1: and all that. Of course, Jordan doesn't want that out
Speaker 1: because he's he had all his buddies in the media
Speaker 1: as a friends who were trying to cover for him.
Speaker 1: And then the other one off the top of my
Speaker 1: head is that cal Ripkin game when cal Ripkin hadn't
Speaker 1: set the record for the Orioles for the most consecutive
Speaker 1: games and he uh, the lights went out and he
Speaker 1: he was supposed he got into a fight at his house.
Speaker 1: There was a story involving Kevin Costner, and I don't
Speaker 1: know whether the Costner part of it's true or not,
Speaker 1: but something happened with Kyle Ripken where they had a
Speaker 1: very convenient power outage only in that neighborhood in Baltimore,
Speaker 1: and they couldn't get the power back on and they
Speaker 1: canceled the game. And that was back when the Mariners
Speaker 1: and Ken Griffey Jr. And Randy Johnson and Edgar Martinez,
Speaker 1: they were a rock star team. The Mariners and the
Speaker 1: Orioles had a good team. Still at that time. That's
Speaker 1: way back in the way back machine when the Orils
Speaker 1: were good. And now my friends sports with Coleman in
Speaker 1: Baltimore swears he was he covered that that Oriel team.
Speaker 1: He said, Oh, no, it's it's not It's not what
Speaker 1: you think. But the reason I believe that to be
Speaker 1: true is someone very close to the situation. Let's say,
Speaker 1: uh is a friend of a friend, a friend of
Speaker 1: a friend, right, So I have a buddy of mine
Speaker 1: that works in television whose friends with somebody who's very
Speaker 1: high up in the Orioles organization. The day after this happened,
Speaker 1: that person told my friend, who then told me a
Speaker 1: couple of degrees of separation what had happened. And it
Speaker 1: was the same story that eventually came out later. And
Speaker 1: this was before social media, you know, back in the
Speaker 1: back in the nineties, but it was the same the
Speaker 1: same concept, And so I absolutely believe the cow Riken
Speaker 1: that they phone calls were made. It was so important
Speaker 1: for baseball and so important for the Orioles in particular
Speaker 1: to have Cal Ripken break Lou Garrick streak to get
Speaker 1: fans back after the strike, that they turned out the
Speaker 1: lights for a night and they figured it out, and
Speaker 1: then cal was back in the lineup and he wasn't
Speaker 1: gonna play. If that game had been played, he would
Speaker 1: not have been in the lineup and that would have
Speaker 1: ended the streak short of lou Garret. What about you?
Speaker 1: I think sports wise, I could go with one real quick. UM.
Speaker 1: Not as out there as many people will probably listen
Speaker 1: to on sports related topics, but north of the border. Uh.
Speaker 1: In when the ly Kings playing the Montreal Canadians and
Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup Final, Uh, there's conspiracy theorists out there.
Speaker 1: That's say that the Canadians sent a couple of trainers
Speaker 1: or equipment managers inside the King's locker room after game
Speaker 1: one and before game two with practices going on. UM,
Speaker 1: and they inspected and found out that Martin McSorley had
Speaker 1: an illegal stick blade. And if you recall, if anyone's
Speaker 1: a hockey fan out there, game to the Stanley Cup
Speaker 1: Final between the Kings and the Canadians, l A was
Speaker 1: up a goal late in the third period. In Jacques Demurs,
Speaker 1: the head coach of Montreal, cast stick yeah, stick measurement
Speaker 1: he had illegal curve. Eric dejar Dan's tied the game. Uh.
Speaker 1: With the power play goal and then wanted in overtime
Speaker 1: with a hat trick and uh. And then Montreal won
Speaker 1: the next three games after that and won the series
Speaker 1: four games to one. So that's the one that kind
Speaker 1: of stuck out to me, especially given the fact that
Speaker 1: was close to home and ninety three was a hell
Speaker 1: of a run. So is that similar to a baseball
Speaker 1: manager being tipped off the star player the other team
Speaker 1: has a core Corse bat, but waiting until said player
Speaker 1: hits a home run. Yeah, to the worst one for me,
Speaker 1: that was George Brett with the Pine Tar incident. I
Speaker 1: never got that, Like, just because the pine tower is
Speaker 1: too high up the shoft to the back by the
Speaker 1: letter to the law and not to spirit the law,
Speaker 1: by let law, you gotta do it. Yeah, it's gotta happen. Um, Alright,
Speaker 1: let's see moving on on a than from Auburn Washington. Auburn,
Speaker 1: Johnny says, what city was your favorite city to do
Speaker 1: the Mallard Man marching? I know, what do you what
Speaker 1: do you don't know? I haven't answered the question. How
Speaker 1: the fund do you know? I haven't answered the question
Speaker 1: because you don't know, you have no idea. Okay, if
Speaker 1: you're you're gonna correct me if I'm wrong when I
Speaker 1: say Seattle, because you had a first class ticket paid
Speaker 1: for by a remember, and then you had all these
Speaker 1: fat heads in the streets for your entire So it
Speaker 1: was an amazing ego tactic situation there for me, and
Speaker 1: it was a great tribute. I don't get a lot
Speaker 1: of pats on the back, as you know, guests gone
Speaker 1: from the company, but it was nice that when you're
Speaker 1: playing victimhood now no, no, I'm just pointing that out.
Speaker 1: It's not playing a victim. I'm just pointing that out
Speaker 1: at all, you guess. And so it was nice too
Speaker 1: that some appreciation was shown for the hard work that
Speaker 1: we put into the show. But I had had a
Speaker 1: great time in Seattle. Everyone was very nice there. It
Speaker 1: was before the hostile takeover of Seattle by the Kook's,
Speaker 1: uh so that was great. And I had fun in Boston.
Speaker 1: I had a great time. I mean to me, it's
Speaker 1: it's all the same. Anytime I get to go out
Speaker 1: and hang out with fans of the show, and then
Speaker 1: that's it's the whole Without people listening, we're I think
Speaker 1: that's we're crazy, right, it's schizophrenia. When you're talking to yourself,
Speaker 1: isn't a guest conswer. We need people to listen otherwise
Speaker 1: they will diagnosis with mental illness. And you don't really
Speaker 1: know when you're doing the show who's actually listening. So
Speaker 1: it's always cool to meet people and hear their stories
Speaker 1: and find out what their lives are like and the good,
Speaker 1: bad and ugly from their lives. And so, John, I
Speaker 1: have a feeling you were at the mallard Man March,
Speaker 1: so you probably wanted to say that. But I had
Speaker 1: a wonderful time in Boston with blind Scott and our
Speaker 1: friend from from Southee, Wayne from Southee, and we are
Speaker 1: the couple from Maine. As we had to like chase
Speaker 1: away from a runaway from Wayne, and those are all
Speaker 1: fund memories, great memories. So anyway, I guess that's my
Speaker 1: way of not answering the question. But it's like it's
Speaker 1: it's high and then we had some great one is
Speaker 1: in Bakersfield, although that was a horrible ballpark and oppressively
Speaker 1: hot night and all that, and uh, San Bernardino. We've
Speaker 1: done these and I think it's three or four minor
Speaker 1: league ballparks, and that's been fun. I look forward to
Speaker 1: a time we can do them again, maybe sooner than later, hopefully.
Speaker 1: Mr Luciato from Los Angeles writes in some mail bag
Speaker 1: who is your favorite mobster? He says, who was your
Speaker 1: favorite mobster? And if you had to choose a racket
Speaker 1: to be in, which one would it? Be? All right?
Speaker 1: So I'll go first on this guest, gan I guess
Speaker 1: mythic gold mobster. I'd go Tony Soprano. I'd go Tony Soprano.
Speaker 1: Real mobster Henry Hill, who I actually came across years ago.
Speaker 1: He's dead now, But Henry Hill famously banged on the
Speaker 1: door outside the Fox Sports Radio Showcase studios in Sherman
Speaker 1: Oaks in the San Fernando Valley, drunker than drunk, trying
Speaker 1: to get on the air. And I actually walked by him.
Speaker 1: Are you on the radio? And I said, nope, not
Speaker 1: on the radio, And I kept walking and he started
Speaker 1: banging on the doors. I'm Henry F. Hill, I gotta
Speaker 1: start it down, put me on the radio. He was
Speaker 1: in the Witness Protection program at the time, and uh
Speaker 1: yeah that. And then I also had a run in
Speaker 1: with the guy claiming to be the son of Lucky Luciano.
Speaker 1: The famous New York mobster. This guy that I had
Speaker 1: a lemon. The malamobile was a lemon, and I had
Speaker 1: to turn the car in and get a check. And
Speaker 1: the guy that handled the paperwork claimed that he his
Speaker 1: his mom was a mistress of Lucky Luciano and that
Speaker 1: he is the product of that relationship. I'll go mobster wise,
Speaker 1: I'll go al capone um and I don't think it
Speaker 1: go wrong with de Niro or or Pesci back in
Speaker 1: the day with good Fellas. I guess the white racket.
Speaker 1: I want to be a part of his, like the
Speaker 1: gambling racket, and just I don't know if it's either
Speaker 1: in no bootlegging, you know what bootlegs I mean, man,
Speaker 1: you can get I mean the way that you know
Speaker 1: points are shaved and the inset information, especially because you
Speaker 1: couldn't monitor it like we can now with telephone calls
Speaker 1: and emails and things of that nature. Oh man, A
Speaker 1: lot of money. Yeah, all right, we gotta wrap this up.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's a couple of quick ones here, uh
Speaker 1: stand from animal houses. My wife says the mask covering
Speaker 1: my mouth isn't enough and told me to upgrade to
Speaker 1: a ski mask. Should I be worried. Should I wear one?
Speaker 1: Should I ask what color she would like me to wear?
Speaker 1: Should I go to the bank with her? Help me? Please?
Speaker 1: Ben stand? Yeah? How long are we gonna have to
Speaker 1: wear these masks? Should I upgrade my mask game? I
Speaker 1: feel like I need to upgrade my mask game. I
Speaker 1: feel like I need to do that. You probably do.
Speaker 1: It's like your hat collection, You probably need to upgrade that.
Speaker 1: And I have a great hat, proud of my stance.
Speaker 1: So you need to add more to your mask collection
Speaker 1: now to be to match the hat. I have a
Speaker 1: blue mask that's like matches my Brooklyn Dodgers at in
Speaker 1: my l A Dodgers that could be offensive? Is that
Speaker 1: offensively blue? Yeah? People are there's an itis. I'm sure
Speaker 1: some kind of it is connected to that. Uh somewhere
Speaker 1: along the way. Oh, here's a quick one. This is
Speaker 1: from I don't think I didn't write his name. He says,
Speaker 1: I'll be in Vegas this weekend with face mask mandates
Speaker 1: being implemented just about everywhere. Should I bet a hundred
Speaker 1: dollars on black or red? We can affect this guy's
Speaker 1: life if we get this right. Guests, guys, So the
Speaker 1: way I look at the roulette thing. I have my
Speaker 1: own roulette system that I've done for years. I would
Speaker 1: either do even or odd red or black, and I
Speaker 1: usually when you bet, what I do is I bet
Speaker 1: and then you lose. You double your bet. You lose that,
Speaker 1: you double it again, you lose that you double because
Speaker 1: eventually the numbers work out you have a forty seven
Speaker 1: percent chance, right, believe on an even red or black
Speaker 1: ot or even lower high. But isn't the line bet
Speaker 1: on black? Isn't that the line you're supposed to be?
Speaker 1: I'm going him all right, Listen, we didn't get to
Speaker 1: all the other ones. Uh so, sir, scratch off Devon
Speaker 1: Ethan Kentucky, j Nathan and all you other guys Andre
Speaker 1: in Nashville. I just know we had your questions. We
Speaker 1: were going to use them. Play it on Gascon. He's
Speaker 1: Mr Mean over there. He's making us put. He's giving
Speaker 1: me the wrap ups, and he's the third base coach
Speaker 1: giving me the wrap up sign. Correct, Yes, I'm telling
Speaker 1: you to go home now, all right, I'm done. Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: that's right. I'm I'm back on furlough. By the way,
Speaker 1: there's no there's a show tonight, but it's not gonna
Speaker 1: be me as somebody else will be in. I think
Speaker 1: Jonas is in for me tonight on the radar. I'll
Speaker 1: be back tomorrow though my I'm only taking a couple
Speaker 1: of furlough days this time. I'll take some of my
Speaker 1: morning you know, in July, I'll probably end up taking
Speaker 1: a few more long weekends to try to knock out
Speaker 1: some of that furlough time before sports come back. But
Speaker 1: to have a wonderful day. Anything we need to promote
Speaker 1: here Gascon, anything we need to sell. Are we good? Yes,
Speaker 1: we're good. Alright, have a wonderful rest of your weekend,
Speaker 1: and thank you for all the support, and have a
Speaker 1: great day.
