WEBVTT - A Crying Russell

0:00:02.200 --> 0:00:05.680
<v Speaker 1>If you thought more hours a day, minutes a week

0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:09.200
<v Speaker 1>was enough, I think again. He's the last remnants of

0:00:09.240 --> 0:00:12.879
<v Speaker 1>the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats

0:00:12.880 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 1>crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the rich

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearinghouse of hot takes,

0:00:20.239 --> 0:00:24.040
<v Speaker 1>break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben

0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Maller starts right now that it does. We are in

0:00:28.240 --> 0:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>the air everywhere bloviating eight days a week, eight days

0:00:35.560 --> 0:00:37.800
<v Speaker 1>a week. This is obviously a spinoff of the radio show.

0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:41.160
<v Speaker 1>It's been a wacky weekend though in the podcast world,

0:00:41.960 --> 0:00:47.520
<v Speaker 1>because this is the only podcast this weekend where together united.

0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:53.600
<v Speaker 1>The Sunday Mailbag podcast from West of the four oh five. David,

0:00:57.520 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm a cloud mores pin, w wild and crazy, and

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the crowd is excited that you are actually

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:09.280
<v Speaker 1>in the house for two consecutive days. You go from

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:14.360
<v Speaker 1>Saturday to Sunday. I'm really enthusiastic about this. Well, I

0:01:14.360 --> 0:01:16.080
<v Speaker 1>would like to thank you, guess, as you know, I

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:18.880
<v Speaker 1>on the Saturday podcast, which I did alone, I explain

0:01:19.080 --> 0:01:21.280
<v Speaker 1>what has been going on in my life here and

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:25.839
<v Speaker 1>I recently moved to the I call it the halfway

0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 1>house because it's halfway between my my last house and

0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:33.120
<v Speaker 1>my next house, which is being renovated right now. And

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:38.520
<v Speaker 1>so I'm in a temporary situation. And everything has been

0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>walking wonky and crazy. But you know, it's not walking

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:46.320
<v Speaker 1>and crazy. The mail bell boy, the mail bag is

0:01:46.360 --> 0:01:49.600
<v Speaker 1>not wonky crazy. And I hear from sources, gas Gun,

0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 1>that you you like the mail bag you even though

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 1>people just kill you and destroy you. And I have

0:01:57.200 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>noticed going through the mail that a lot of a

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of hate mixed with a couple of a couple

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:08.680
<v Speaker 1>of plants, a couple of plants, team Gascon going in

0:02:08.720 --> 0:02:12.000
<v Speaker 1>there and doing that thing. But for the most part

0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:15.239
<v Speaker 1>it's been all negative, with a few exceptions. So I

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:16.520
<v Speaker 1>want to get right now. I don't want to waste

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.280
<v Speaker 1>any time. Yes, I don't want to waste any time.

0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:22.800
<v Speaker 1>To me, this is my favorite podcast of the weekend, okay,

0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:32.359
<v Speaker 1>because it's the last. All Right, I'm a pilot, writes

0:02:32.440 --> 0:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>in from Parts Unknown. He says, catching up on the

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>Sunday mail Bag and listening to YouTube muppets food phobias,

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 1>he's re frank to the last Sunday podcast that we

0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:47.000
<v Speaker 1>did prior to this one. Obviously, had me shaking my head.

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>That's my line. You can't shake your head. I'm allowed

0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:52.000
<v Speaker 1>to shake my head. He says. I do most of

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 1>the cooking at home, and my five year olds have

0:02:55.680 --> 0:03:00.000
<v Speaker 1>a better food path than you do. Uh. He says,

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and rare or medium rare is the only choice when

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.920
<v Speaker 1>cooking steak. No, that's wrong, you're wrong. I'm a pilot.

0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 1>It's well done with ketchup or a one sauce. That

0:03:11.680 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 1>is the way to eat a steak, I says. The

0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.760
<v Speaker 1>last fourth of July cooking steaks, my girls said well done,

0:03:18.800 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and I made them go to do Oklahoma drills. That's well,

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.920
<v Speaker 1>that's good parenting, good parenting. I'm a pilot, I said,

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Seeing how you are a nonpracticing Jew, that is true. Uh.

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 1>Not eating pork in itself is blasphemy. We'll blame my

0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>parents because I didn't need it when I was a kid.

0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:39.160
<v Speaker 1>It's just one of those things I haven't done it

0:03:39.240 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 1>as I never had a cup of coffee. That's just

0:03:41.320 --> 0:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of how how that goes, he says, going through

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:46.360
<v Speaker 1>life with no bacon, it's God's candy. He says, this

0:03:46.440 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 1>is true, guest, gun is bacon God's candy. Yeah, I

0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:51.040
<v Speaker 1>think you would enjoy it, and if you dip down

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 1>into the depths of of meat, especially at breakfast Britto.

0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:59.360
<v Speaker 1>We're in California. I think it's it's well accustomed for

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>those that were early morning or late night like you

0:04:02.480 --> 0:04:06.400
<v Speaker 1>do breakfast, brittle eggs. I think love the breakfast. You

0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 1>love the breakfast the biggest thing. You should open a

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:11.760
<v Speaker 1>restaurant and just serve breakfast. Burrito. You know what. I'm

0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 1>a fan of the larger tortillas, especially when you get

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 1>to double wrap your burritos. We don't have many places,

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:20.400
<v Speaker 1>so you are when it comes to burritos. You're a

0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>size queen when it comes to brito. Yes, you know sizes.

0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:28.680
<v Speaker 1>Size matters. Bellor, I thought it was the motion in

0:04:28.720 --> 0:04:34.120
<v Speaker 1>the ocean. I thought that was there. It's that's all

0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 1>about size, Okay, is that right? I didn't know. I

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:40.960
<v Speaker 1>guess you're hanging out with an interesting crowd there, He says. Uh,

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm a pilots as his kids his girls are routinely

0:04:43.839 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>eat their weight and bacon and would gnaw your hand

0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 1>if you tried to take away there. Berkshire pork Job

0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:56.080
<v Speaker 1>bowed in no less, because I'm raising winners. Not participants,

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:00.679
<v Speaker 1>says David Berkshire. Pork is the co be of pork

0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.960
<v Speaker 1>added to your shopping list. I'll have to do that.

0:05:03.080 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 1>I feel like that was a really emasculating email from

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:08.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm a pilot, very rare that he will take a

0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:12.320
<v Speaker 1>shot at me. But I will respond, and I will.

0:05:12.600 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 1>It's not done the email. This is a long email.

0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Just no, no seafood, no sushi. I will eat cod beer,

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>battered cod fish sticks. I'll eat that. He says. How

0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 1>can you how you can live on planet Earth where

0:05:28.200 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 1>seventy percent of it is ocean? Got a good point.

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Then he says, that's God's supermarket with a lot of

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>God references here. You love Boston, that's true. I do

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:40.720
<v Speaker 1>love Boston. I almost worked if I did work there,

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.240
<v Speaker 1>but I almost moved there. It was offered a job

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.360
<v Speaker 1>in Boston a couple of times, he says. But will

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:48.599
<v Speaker 1>will not taste the greatness of the lobster roll or

0:05:48.680 --> 0:05:52.880
<v Speaker 1>fresh shucked oysters. No, I I well the idea of

0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:55.640
<v Speaker 1>the oysters texture. I wouldn't want to eat oysters just

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:58.400
<v Speaker 1>on the texture alone. Looking at them, Yeah, I don't

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.839
<v Speaker 1>want to eat them, he said, a big bowl of

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.680
<v Speaker 1>steam clams, grilled shrimp or props. No, that sounds disgusting.

0:06:05.279 --> 0:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>That texture of fish is the problem. The smell and

0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 1>the texture. Beer battered fish sticks are like eating chicken fingers,

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>So it doesn't really bother me. It's like dipping in

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:17.160
<v Speaker 1>tartar sauce, put some whatever else on it, and you're

0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:20.840
<v Speaker 1>good to go. Everything but ranch, right, No ranch, he says,

0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Like I'm a pass Like I tell my kids, try

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>everything three times, including vegetables. Trying taking asparagus from them.

0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:32.680
<v Speaker 1>You would get shived, he said. That's what he said,

0:06:32.800 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 1>s HIV eating. I'm I'm throwing down a fought law

0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:41.080
<v Speaker 1>to you guys to change up your menu selections and

0:06:41.200 --> 0:06:44.000
<v Speaker 1>venture out at least one new food a week and

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 1>report back. Wow, that's what he says. That's a challenge.

0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:52.680
<v Speaker 1>What's in it like for for me? I think I

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 1>think bacon is the easiest one for you to do.

0:06:55.080 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 1>What's the carrot on the end of the stick, though,

0:06:57.040 --> 0:06:58.719
<v Speaker 1>what's the carrot on the end of the I don't know.

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm a pilot, a craft you guy, he's probably your

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:07.080
<v Speaker 1>most prominent caller, listener, um interactor. Just having his respect.

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I think that's what stopped stopping. You're such a toe sucker,

0:07:11.040 --> 0:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>it's so embarrassing, he said. Also here, by the way,

0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 1>he took another shot at you. I'm a pilot. He's

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 1>turning on you, He says. I showed my kids both

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:22.520
<v Speaker 1>your pictures and said, these guys don't like seafood. They

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>asked if you always were picked last, and said tell

0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.400
<v Speaker 1>them to get the sand out of their panties and

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:32.920
<v Speaker 1>that the kid's table is in the other room. Well,

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 1>for the record, I'm a pilot, and for your your kids, Um,

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.280
<v Speaker 1>when I was young, when I was when I was

0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 1>young before fourteen, I was typically picked middle to last,

0:07:42.960 --> 0:07:45.520
<v Speaker 1>and then hit the gross spurt when I was always

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 1>picked first after that. So no, I was picked last

0:07:51.200 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 1>because I was fat. So you know, you play soccer handball,

0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:58.400
<v Speaker 1>you don't want the fat kids rustling Kansas right soon

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:01.840
<v Speaker 1>says I love the podcast for over a year now,

0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:07.080
<v Speaker 1>but I just can't tolerate Gagon's extreme ego anymore. I

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:10.880
<v Speaker 1>don't care if he was actually the greatest person that

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 1>ever was, which he clearly is not. Russell says, just

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:20.560
<v Speaker 1>don't act that arrogant. He complains constantly about your toe lickers,

0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 1>as he calls them. Thankfully he doesn't have many of

0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 1>his ego or his Egolas says, would wouldn't fit in

0:08:28.280 --> 0:08:31.200
<v Speaker 1>the universe. So sad to say goodbye to the podcast.

0:08:31.960 --> 0:08:34.960
<v Speaker 1>We have lost Russell in Kansas because of you guests.

0:08:34.960 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>Now we have lost a podcast. That's a download that

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 1>we have lost. But here's a good thing though. We

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>have a new category because with Russell leaving, that means

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>we go from boot liquors to a nut hugger. Russell

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:51.720
<v Speaker 1>as a full fledged nut hugger of Ben Mallary. No, no,

0:08:51.760 --> 0:08:53.640
<v Speaker 1>if he was a nut hugger, he would continue to

0:08:53.679 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 1>listen to the podcast, listen to you. He's not going anywhere.

0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:00.839
<v Speaker 1>But he said, he just says he's called him a liar. Yeah,

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:03.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm calling him a liar, an egomania, calling a guy

0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:06.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot. For the record, liar, Yeah, he is a

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>he is a liar. But for the record, he should

0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 1>acknowledge the fact that it is about me, Like he

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:14.920
<v Speaker 1>is listening for us and I am on this stupid podcast,

0:09:14.920 --> 0:09:19.360
<v Speaker 1>so it is about me. What else you did do? Wait?

0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.520

0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:26.800
<v Speaker 1>of God fearing people in Kansas, a lot of good,

0:09:26.920 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>hard working people. That's the bread basket as part of

0:09:30.480 --> 0:09:33.240
<v Speaker 1>the bread basket of America. Boy, Kansas, and you're you're

0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and he says, Ben and day, once again, you're a podcast,

0:10:01.920 --> 0:10:04.719
<v Speaker 1>continue to inform and entertain. So here's a guy in

0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Kansas that likes the podcast. Is there a butt coming

0:10:07.960 --> 0:10:11.000
<v Speaker 1>in here? I've noticed that both of you have vast

0:10:11.040 --> 0:10:14.160
<v Speaker 1>experiences covering or calling a variety of sports. What kind

0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:17.079
<v Speaker 1>of prep do you have to do to be competent

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:22.560
<v Speaker 1>or better at broadcasting or writing about lacrosse or other

0:10:22.640 --> 0:10:27.000
<v Speaker 1>such sports? Yeah, well, that that's the equivalent of speaking

0:10:27.480 --> 0:10:32.640
<v Speaker 1>Chinese or Russian. Uh. The sport of lacrosse. I just

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:34.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't know much about it. I've seen it a

0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:36.840
<v Speaker 1>few times. I had friends that played lacrosse. But lacross

0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:38.880
<v Speaker 1>is not big where I grew up. I know in

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the Northeast the crosses is very big. But like anything,

0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:46.320
<v Speaker 1>if I were to be assigned a big television deal

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:50.640
<v Speaker 1>to broadcast lacrosse, then I would do my copious amounts

0:10:50.640 --> 0:10:56.120
<v Speaker 1>of research and try to become a savant in lacrosse.

0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.079
<v Speaker 1>What's the I did soft but I was in college.

0:10:58.080 --> 0:10:59.960
<v Speaker 1>I did softball. That was odd, but it was just

0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:03.120
<v Speaker 1>like baseball. It was a softball. When he's referencing what

0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:07.120
<v Speaker 1>I mentioned last week, I had called a championship lacrosse

0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.720
<v Speaker 1>match in Tustin in your neck of the woods, Oh yeah,

0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:13.280
<v Speaker 1>that's right. Well I'm from just across the way from

0:11:13.280 --> 0:11:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Tustin and Irvine, North Part Yeah. I so, okay, I

0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:19.240
<v Speaker 1>guess he's asking you then, Yes, what did you do?

0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 1>A lacrosse expert? I'm not an across expert, but I'm

0:11:22.720 --> 0:11:25.400
<v Speaker 1>familiar with the game. Called it pretty pretty decently. I

0:11:25.400 --> 0:11:29.839
<v Speaker 1>think the challenge will be um this tonight. I think

0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 1>the challenge will be tonight. I'm calling my first game

0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.640
<v Speaker 1>for the European League of Football. And so the majority

0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:39.480
<v Speaker 1>of the players on these rosters are from Germany, Poland

0:11:39.480 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 1>and Spain. So not the game traveling to Germany. No,

0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I'll be doing things uh in studio remotely, yeah, remotely,

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 1>but the pronunciations of these guys will be a kick

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:52.920
<v Speaker 1>in the ass. Here's what you do. What's all right?

0:11:53.000 --> 0:11:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Number twelve drops back, throws the number over the middle.

0:11:56.160 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 1>That's the first the big german. Uh, you could have

0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.200
<v Speaker 1>some fun to see if anyone is actually paying attention.

0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.560
<v Speaker 1>You could like it's like I had a program director

0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.600
<v Speaker 1>tell me that, you know, sometimes the phone is when

0:12:17.640 --> 0:12:19.199
<v Speaker 1>I when I used to be desperate for call, not

0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't really care. I mean I take calls, but

0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't really need them. But I remember I first

0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.360
<v Speaker 1>started your your dependent on phone calls, and I had

0:12:25.360 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>a program director said this have been if no one's calling,

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 1>if you want to see if they're listening, there's two

0:12:30.679 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 1>things you can do. You can either you can either

0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 1>curse and then the people will get upset, or you

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.600
<v Speaker 1>can make a mistake intentionally and then have people call

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:42.160
<v Speaker 1>up to try to correct you. And hand to god,

0:12:42.240 --> 0:12:45.959
<v Speaker 1>it's it's kind of like the the trope of the Internet.

0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:47.560
<v Speaker 1>You know how they say about the internet. If you

0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.319
<v Speaker 1>want to get an answer to something, give the wrong

0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:53.600
<v Speaker 1>answer right. People love to correct you. And it's true

0:12:53.600 --> 0:12:57.320
<v Speaker 1>with the radio, like if you make a mistake, they

0:12:57.600 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 1>love to call up and correct the idiot on the radio.

0:13:00.520 --> 0:13:04.240
<v Speaker 1>Can't get enough of it. Love it, love it, love it,

0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:07.120
<v Speaker 1>love it, love it. Uh. Let's see here, who do

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:10.400
<v Speaker 1>we have august ones from? Should I say the name

0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>of this? Maybe I'll give the name at the end. Ben,

0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I have listened to your Overnight show for years. I

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:18.520
<v Speaker 1>have been loyal, supportive, and appreciative of the content and

0:13:18.600 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 1>effort of the crew to make the show better than

0:13:21.520 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 1>the best. I have listened to the Fifth Hour podcast

0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 1>since its inception. I find David a worthy opponent to

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:33.720
<v Speaker 1>your argumentative ways. He has creative, loyal, and supportive building

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:37.640
<v Speaker 1>your brand. However, the Benn Maller Show in the Fifth

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Hour have gone off the third rail so many times

0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:44.960
<v Speaker 1>with the content and the guest you have interviewed that

0:13:45.080 --> 0:13:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I have come to realize, how dare you tease me

0:13:49.679 --> 0:13:54.760
<v Speaker 1>with this greatness? Put time limits on your untouchable content?

0:13:55.000 --> 0:13:58.840
<v Speaker 1>How dare you stir the pot and offer an honest,

0:13:58.920 --> 0:14:03.040
<v Speaker 1>differing opinion on taboo subjects. The nerve you and David

0:14:03.120 --> 0:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>have to rock the boat with topics and guests who

0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:10.800
<v Speaker 1>provide enlightening conversations so that I can question topics, educate myself,

0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:16.760
<v Speaker 1>and emphasize with situations and individuals. How dare you if

0:14:16.800 --> 0:14:19.320
<v Speaker 1>the fifth hour podcast at the Ben Mallow Show stopped

0:14:19.320 --> 0:14:22.600
<v Speaker 1>this off? The high volters third real content, I may

0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:26.200
<v Speaker 1>have to quit listening signed what do you think wrote that? Well?

0:14:26.280 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 1>The fact that that thing was nice and eloquent, succinct

0:14:29.840 --> 0:14:32.120
<v Speaker 1>and well thought out. I would say it's one of

0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:35.880
<v Speaker 1>your more coherent your listeners and callers, someone that has

0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:39.280
<v Speaker 1>teeth um some of that doesn't have needles in their arms.

0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:42.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go to Tammy from Montown almost like almost

0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 1>like you've seen that email before, almost like you told

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 1>her to send all the listeners that we have. You

0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:54.040
<v Speaker 1>guess Tammy and Montana ding Ding Ding ding Ding just

0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 1>been exposed that you've just been Paint's just been paying

0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>basically a handful of people that actually right thoughtful into

0:15:01.040 --> 0:15:04.240
<v Speaker 1>an email. I'm a pilots one of them. She's another,

0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:10.000
<v Speaker 1>And I think what blind Scott maybe blank Scott. Yeah,

0:15:10.840 --> 0:15:14.280
<v Speaker 1>I have noticed that when blind Scott's been battling some

0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 1>some demons. But when he's back with the demons, he

0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:18.560
<v Speaker 1>calls the show every day. When he's not on the demons,

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>he kind of just forgets about us. He hangs out

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 1>with his dog Dylan, and that's it. Kyrie in Okay

0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:29.360
<v Speaker 1>See writes, and he says, Hey, Betty the Bopper, I

0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.800
<v Speaker 1>love Jed who fled as a caller. There's the one

0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:34.000
<v Speaker 1>guy that loves Jed who fled as a caller. He

0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 1>is one of my favorites. I listened to the game

0:15:36.600 --> 0:15:39.600
<v Speaker 1>show the other night, and how mad you you get

0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:42.280
<v Speaker 1>when you lose the game shows? He says. It's freaking

0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.800
<v Speaker 1>hilarious to hear another sore loser like myself. I'm not

0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.480
<v Speaker 1>a sore loser, Kyrie, he says. I. Kyrie says, though,

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:51.160
<v Speaker 1>I am one of the worst in the world. I

0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:54.280
<v Speaker 1>once put my uncle out of my house over a

0:15:54.400 --> 0:15:57.960
<v Speaker 1>video game. Video game, I don't know, he didn't say.

0:15:58.080 --> 0:16:01.720
<v Speaker 1>He says he's serious, though, what sports moment or radio

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:04.320
<v Speaker 1>moment has angered you the most in your life? The

0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>same question for gag On two. I like the West

0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:13.120
<v Speaker 1>of the Four Oh five responses, what's go ahead? I'm

0:16:13.160 --> 0:16:15.640
<v Speaker 1>gonna guess that it was Game five of the seventeen

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:19.480
<v Speaker 1>World Series with Kershaw on the bump. Uh No, I

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:23.280
<v Speaker 1>was actually Game seven or it was just the most

0:16:23.320 --> 0:16:26.000
<v Speaker 1>annoyed you know, because I come in people love to

0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>bust my balls, and I bust people's balls, and I

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>get it. But the Clippers blowing the lead against the

0:16:31.160 --> 0:16:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Rockets when they were going to the Western Conference they

0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:36.040
<v Speaker 1>were gonna win the game, go to the Western Conference

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:40.720
<v Speaker 1>finals against Golden State, and they had a double digit lead.

0:16:40.720 --> 0:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>They're up like fifteen points like that late third quarter.

0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm leaving Staples Center. People I've known for fifteen years plus,

0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.280
<v Speaker 1>twenty years plus are like, they know I like the

0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Clippers are like, give me high fives, congratulations. Great moment

0:16:54.080 --> 0:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>for the Clippers. By the time I get to the studio,

0:16:56.920 --> 0:17:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the Clippers that lost the I I think I told

0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:05.200
<v Speaker 1>you this. The worst moment I ever had. Was my

0:17:05.240 --> 0:17:09.199
<v Speaker 1>first on air opportunity was San Diego State basketball the

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:12.639
<v Speaker 1>game day host, and the opening segment was also the

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:16.200
<v Speaker 1>first play out of the TV time out where Joe

0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:20.199
<v Speaker 1>Flacco burn raheem more over the top to Jacobe Jones

0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:24.640
<v Speaker 1>in that playoff game and through its seventy yards. Being

0:17:24.720 --> 0:17:27.240
<v Speaker 1>a huge Bronco fan, I saw that on live TV

0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:30.480
<v Speaker 1>in my studio while I'm on air. I wanted to

0:17:30.520 --> 0:17:36.000
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to punch somebody. It's absolutely awf Yeah, yeah,

0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 1>you know. I I just a lot of the radio stuff,

0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:42.240
<v Speaker 1>like I get frustrated when the equipment doesn't work, I

0:17:42.280 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 1>start throwing stuff. But a lot of that's out of

0:17:44.600 --> 0:17:50.240
<v Speaker 1>my control. Yeah, so I I've come to grips with that. Um.

0:17:50.560 --> 0:17:54.800
<v Speaker 1>But the sports stuff, I mean, when you think something's

0:17:54.800 --> 0:17:57.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna go one way and then it just you know, shot,

0:17:57.880 --> 0:18:00.400
<v Speaker 1>just brutal, even if you have money on the ann

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Wars now, Uh, Barry, that's true. Berry from Nashville, Yo Yo,

0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:10.399

<v Speaker 1>like there has been a lot of songs, awesome songs

0:18:13.440 --> 0:18:16.320
<v Speaker 1>written for your show. Why do you think that has

0:18:16.359 --> 0:18:20.399
<v Speaker 1>happened all of a sudden. Uh, well, Bart, I'll answer that.

0:18:20.680 --> 0:18:22.440
<v Speaker 1>I think there's a couple of things in play here.

0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:25.600
<v Speaker 1>We've been playing the songs more now. We've had songs

0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:29.119
<v Speaker 1>written off and on sporadically for years. We had Tammy

0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:33.320
<v Speaker 1>and Montana and Rod the Ambassador of Bakersfield collaborated on

0:18:33.359 --> 0:18:36.879
<v Speaker 1>a tune that was professionally done and we played that

0:18:36.960 --> 0:18:39.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot. And we've had a few others, but I

0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:43.680
<v Speaker 1>really give credit to Jay Scoop and Just Josh. Those

0:18:43.680 --> 0:18:47.480
<v Speaker 1>two guys have collaborated on a number of songs and

0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:51.160
<v Speaker 1>they've been so good and so professionally done that we've

0:18:51.200 --> 0:18:55.480
<v Speaker 1>had Raz quit the band who's also a musician in Minnesota,

0:18:55.600 --> 0:18:59.240
<v Speaker 1>and he's he started to put songs out really quick.

0:18:59.359 --> 0:19:01.520
<v Speaker 1>Raditat hat you have like three songs in a row,

0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:05.199
<v Speaker 1>and so there's like this rivalry of people putting songs out.

0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:07.600
<v Speaker 1>And then we've the Talent Show. Every year we get

0:19:07.600 --> 0:19:10.920
<v Speaker 1>a couple of songs that are that are out, that

0:19:10.960 --> 0:19:13.840
<v Speaker 1>are that are pretty exciting. Uh. Berry also says, as

0:19:13.840 --> 0:19:17.000
<v Speaker 1>a contributing member of the podcast since day one, I

0:19:17.040 --> 0:19:21.800
<v Speaker 1>really appreciate you having my payments being switched from checks

0:19:22.320 --> 0:19:25.800

<v Speaker 1>my bank account much faster. Well, I'm glad to help

0:19:27.920 --> 0:19:29.639

0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:58.680
<v Speaker 1>while I'm back with a different Dave. Uh Benn in

0:19:58.760 --> 0:20:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Dave of the old his radio show, he says, I

0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:03.360
<v Speaker 1>used to love the way you guys would torture Lee

0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:05.800
<v Speaker 1>Klein at the end of your show during the cross like,

0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:09.040
<v Speaker 1>oh that was fun. Lee would get so frustrated and

0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:12.200
<v Speaker 1>annoyed because Lee and we've had him on this podcast,

0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:15.040
<v Speaker 1>but Lee would Lee thought like, you know, he did

0:20:15.119 --> 0:20:19.439
<v Speaker 1>highbrow radio, and that myself and Dave Smith when we

0:20:19.440 --> 0:20:21.879
<v Speaker 1>did the show, we appealed to the unwashed, you know,

0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:24.800
<v Speaker 1>the losers. But he had an adult, mature audience and

0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:27.480
<v Speaker 1>of course was all bullshit. Um, you know, he's he

0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:29.280
<v Speaker 1>had the same people listening to him that we're listening

0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:31.800
<v Speaker 1>to us. He just he in his head, he had

0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:33.840
<v Speaker 1>this neurosis like, oh, I'm you know, I'm more mature

0:20:33.880 --> 0:20:36.879
<v Speaker 1>than these idiots. These guys are doing nonsense radio and

0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:39.199
<v Speaker 1>all that stuff shock jock radio. Uh, he says, what

0:20:39.280 --> 0:20:42.119
<v Speaker 1>happened your old partner, David his league Klins still alive? Wow,

0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:45.480
<v Speaker 1>Lee is still alive. I check in with Lee. We

0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:47.520
<v Speaker 1>had him on the podcast, as I said, aim and

0:20:48.000 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 1>and Lee is still He's retired, he's not working right now,

0:20:53.000 --> 0:20:55.960
<v Speaker 1>living living a good life. And David Smith is working

0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 1>in radio. He's got a weekend radio show at A

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:02.840
<v Speaker 1>I would give the name, i'd plug it. I don't,

0:21:02.880 --> 0:21:05.800
<v Speaker 1>off the top of my head remember the name of

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:07.760
<v Speaker 1>the network. It's A it's a smaller outfit. But he's

0:21:07.800 --> 0:21:10.479
<v Speaker 1>got a radio show on the weekends. And uh so

0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:13.360
<v Speaker 1>he's he's still working actively in the business, and uh,

0:21:13.520 --> 0:21:15.640
<v Speaker 1>from what I understand, is doing pretty well. So well.

0:21:15.760 --> 0:21:17.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm happy for him, and we should get him on

0:21:17.840 --> 0:21:20.000
<v Speaker 1>the podcast at some point, but we haven't been able

0:21:20.040 --> 0:21:22.960
<v Speaker 1>to work that out. Well, since you wanted to plug him,

0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:26.320
<v Speaker 1>why don't you actually plug Friday's episode with me and

0:21:26.400 --> 0:21:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Ryan Harris? I thought I did a great job Bronco

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Fani with a former Bronco player. You know, it was

0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:35.879
<v Speaker 1>well rounded minutes, great content, hard hitting questions. We should

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:37.959
<v Speaker 1>have called that one the sixth hour. Why should call

0:21:38.040 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 1>it because that's not the fifth the fifth Hour with

0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:43.119
<v Speaker 1>Ben Maller. It's not the fifth Hour with Gascon and

0:21:43.200 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 1>a Denver Bronco that used to play. Because you love

0:21:46.560 --> 0:21:48.920
<v Speaker 1>the Broncos so much, you tracked out a Bronco. Was

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:52.199
<v Speaker 1>just gonna tell the audience during that episode that you

0:21:52.200 --> 0:21:55.080
<v Speaker 1>were in the recovery room, you were getting your m

0:21:55.200 --> 0:21:56.680
<v Speaker 1>R I had done on your knee with your torn

0:21:56.720 --> 0:21:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a c l you and your boyfriend Hitle Leonard. I

0:21:59.600 --> 0:22:02.840
<v Speaker 1>just yeah, listen, that's why they play the games. Well, man,

0:22:02.920 --> 0:22:06.240
<v Speaker 1>that's why they play the games. And uh, guys get hurt. Kauai.

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:08.800
<v Speaker 1>You knew when you signed Kauai that he was injury prone.

0:22:10.320 --> 0:22:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like devastated by it. I mean, this was

0:22:13.119 --> 0:22:15.200
<v Speaker 1>a possibility. Its people are like, oh man, you're gonna

0:22:15.200 --> 0:22:17.879
<v Speaker 1>be so up. I'm not upset. I'm upset. I'm not up.

0:22:18.320 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean, this is it. I mean it. Actually, the

0:22:21.280 --> 0:22:24.119
<v Speaker 1>whole Kauai injury thing makes it better because from my perspective,

0:22:24.359 --> 0:22:27.160
<v Speaker 1>it's like, well, now it's just you've just in your

0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:29.639
<v Speaker 1>head lost and if the Clippers would like come back

0:22:29.680 --> 0:22:33.480
<v Speaker 1>and and win or something like that, then that's amazing.

0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>And what an embarrassment would be for the Utah Jazz,

0:22:35.760 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 1>which is probably just not gonna happen. So yeah, I

0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:41.160
<v Speaker 1>mean it's fine. It's you know, you have no chance

0:22:41.160 --> 0:22:44.440
<v Speaker 1>without Ka, I don't win a championship. So that's fine.

0:22:44.760 --> 0:22:47.120
<v Speaker 1>That's what I can deal with that. And I've been

0:22:47.240 --> 0:22:49.640
<v Speaker 1>very consistent on It's like, you know, injuries are part

0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:51.919
<v Speaker 1>of it. They're not robots. And you got I need

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:54.159
<v Speaker 1>to rant about this the other night about Lebron. What

0:22:54.240 --> 0:22:59.400
<v Speaker 1>a dummy Lebron is told to do because the short

0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>and season. Yeah, Kawhile Leonards stepping awkwardly on you know someone,

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:06.360
<v Speaker 1>or Kyrie Irving coming down on Janice A, Denta Coombo,

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:09.760
<v Speaker 1>U Joel and Bead who's always hurt getting hurt it's

0:23:09.800 --> 0:23:13.199
<v Speaker 1>Alope because they came back too soon. Yeah, sure, Lebron,

0:23:13.240 --> 0:23:16.000
<v Speaker 1>do your homework, Lebron. James Harden out of shape trying

0:23:16.040 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 1>to play his way into shape is not the NBA's vault.

0:23:19.960 --> 0:23:22.280
<v Speaker 1>But Lebron's got all the answers. She's so smart with

0:23:22.359 --> 0:23:25.240
<v Speaker 1>his high school diploma that he knows everything that's going

0:23:25.280 --> 0:23:28.280
<v Speaker 1>on in the world. My god. All right, moving on.

0:23:28.680 --> 0:23:32.480
<v Speaker 1>This one's from Helen and Stu and Palmetto Bay, Florida.

0:23:32.920 --> 0:23:35.639
<v Speaker 1>Where is that at in Florida? It's beautiful. You've never

0:23:35.720 --> 0:23:37.600
<v Speaker 1>been to Palmetto Bay, No, I have not. I've only

0:23:37.640 --> 0:23:40.359
<v Speaker 1>been to I've been to Miami. I've been to Tampa.

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:42.359
<v Speaker 1>I've been to St. Petersburg. You've just been to the

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.120
<v Speaker 1>Big seen you do Orlando? I bet I've been to Orlando?

0:23:45.280 --> 0:23:47.359
<v Speaker 1>Have you? You've not been? Yeah, I've been. Well, I

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.359
<v Speaker 1>was there for spring training, so I drove. The Dodges

0:23:50.400 --> 0:23:53.439
<v Speaker 1>were in Vero Beach. We flew into Orlando and drove

0:23:54.400 --> 0:23:57.800
<v Speaker 1>all over the God's Green Earth in Florida. But Palmetto

0:23:57.840 --> 0:24:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Bay is actually in the Miami Dad, It's it's in

0:24:01.600 --> 0:24:05.280
<v Speaker 1>that area. It's uh, I'm looking at photos of It's

0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:09.240
<v Speaker 1>pretty nice. It's pretty nice. Not far from Key Biscayne there.

0:24:09.480 --> 0:24:15.760
<v Speaker 1>Um yeah, solid, I'd live there anyway. Helen and Steu says,

0:24:16.000 --> 0:24:18.959
<v Speaker 1>why bother doing the Fifth Hour podcast when all that

0:24:19.160 --> 0:24:23.119
<v Speaker 1>disloyal David Gascon does his sabotage your two tin cans

0:24:23.160 --> 0:24:27.560
<v Speaker 1>and string audio? Good point. Yeah, Well, I've often said,

0:24:27.680 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Helen and Stu that the most important thing, there's two

0:24:31.080 --> 0:24:36.159
<v Speaker 1>things that are important in broadcasting. The most important is

0:24:36.200 --> 0:24:38.639
<v Speaker 1>to actually be able to hear the broadcast. I have

0:24:38.800 --> 0:24:41.040
<v Speaker 1>learned over the years. If if you the listener has

0:24:41.080 --> 0:24:44.440
<v Speaker 1>to work to hear what the broadcast is saying, you're

0:24:44.440 --> 0:24:46.560
<v Speaker 1>not gonna listen. And the other thing we learned from

0:24:46.600 --> 0:24:49.000
<v Speaker 1>John sterling sell the soap. You've got to sell the soap.

0:24:49.440 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 1>So advertising is you could say it's number one, because

0:24:53.240 --> 0:24:55.199
<v Speaker 1>other than that you're just doing free stuff. But if

0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:56.960
<v Speaker 1>you can't hear the broadcast, what's the point of doing

0:24:56.960 --> 0:25:00.000
<v Speaker 1>the broadcast? Uh? And Helen and Steu signed fire guests

0:25:00.040 --> 0:25:04.280
<v Speaker 1>on and replace him with Roberto whoam? Do you think

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:06.840
<v Speaker 1>she wrote this after or before she put on her

0:25:06.840 --> 0:25:11.600
<v Speaker 1>diapers and her husband's Wow, what are you doing in Florida?

0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:13.879
<v Speaker 1>You know you weren't diapers for years. I don't know

0:25:13.880 --> 0:25:18.359
<v Speaker 1>what you're playing about a little bit. Glenn in Chicago writes,

0:25:18.440 --> 0:25:20.760
<v Speaker 1>and he says, what do you guys hate more junk

0:25:20.800 --> 0:25:25.640
<v Speaker 1>email or junk mail? Yeah, j junk email is easy,

0:25:25.680 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>just delete, delete. You know you gotta spam folder. Nobody deal.

0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I just I don't like the fact that they, you know,

0:25:31.400 --> 0:25:34.200
<v Speaker 1>with credit cards or with any kind of advertisers, the

0:25:34.320 --> 0:25:38.520
<v Speaker 1>junk mail they become. They come in these large envelopes

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:41.000
<v Speaker 1>and letters, and you've spent a lot of money for

0:25:41.720 --> 0:25:46.240
<v Speaker 1>business expenses to get these things out there. Well, my parents,

0:25:46.359 --> 0:25:49.680
<v Speaker 1>my mom ran a mailing service and most of her

0:25:49.720 --> 0:25:54.679
<v Speaker 1>business was drunk mail from realtors. That that was bulk

0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:59.000
<v Speaker 1>mail service. Because that was you'd have title and estro companies.

0:25:59.640 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, we had. I can't say when I was

0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:05.160
<v Speaker 1>in like junior high and high school how many stickers

0:26:05.200 --> 0:26:08.560
<v Speaker 1>I put on, like some flyers that because I was

0:26:08.600 --> 0:26:10.480
<v Speaker 1>before the internet was big, and that's the only way

0:26:10.520 --> 0:26:12.520
<v Speaker 1>you could get the word out is you just mass

0:26:12.600 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 1>mailed junk mail to people, hoping that people, you know,

0:26:15.840 --> 0:26:20.800
<v Speaker 1>a few people would respond. Glenn in Chicago writes in

0:26:20.880 --> 0:26:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Beautiful Deep Dish Chicago Pizza. I only had it for

0:26:24.640 --> 0:26:27.879
<v Speaker 1>the first time a few years ago, Game Changers. Game Changer.

0:26:28.520 --> 0:26:30.359
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think I would like it because the tomato

0:26:30.400 --> 0:26:34.239
<v Speaker 1>sauce on top of amazing, it is amazing. They do

0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:36.600
<v Speaker 1>it right, Glenn and Chicago says, what do you guys

0:26:36.640 --> 0:26:39.560

0:26:39.600 --> 0:26:43.479
<v Speaker 1>will gag On realize you are great and suck your toes?

0:26:46.040 --> 0:26:50.480
<v Speaker 1>When will that happen? Guess you're laughing. I have good

0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:53.919
<v Speaker 1>toes have big toes, big toes, crusted toes. I have

0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 1>a lot of callous on my feet from walking around barefoot.

0:26:57.359 --> 0:27:00.399
<v Speaker 1>Now after your after your better half almost ditched you

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:02.680
<v Speaker 1>last week for condemning Ranch, do you think she would

0:27:02.720 --> 0:27:07.480
<v Speaker 1>ever consider licking your toes? Well, I you know, I

0:27:07.680 --> 0:27:09.960
<v Speaker 1>keep what happens in the bedroom in the bedroom guest,

0:27:10.080 --> 0:27:11.440
<v Speaker 1>and I know you'd like to get out of there.

0:27:11.480 --> 0:27:15.520
<v Speaker 1>But but no, she wasn't. On a serious note, Glenn says,

0:27:15.600 --> 0:27:17.879
<v Speaker 1>I want to say thank you for your energy and

0:27:17.920 --> 0:27:21.080
<v Speaker 1>the laughs on air and on the podcast. My father

0:27:21.240 --> 0:27:26.440
<v Speaker 1>passed away back in March from brain cancer. He opted

0:27:26.440 --> 0:27:29.639
<v Speaker 1>out of treatment. The most horrific last six months of

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:32.800
<v Speaker 1>my life and and his. But thank you for the

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:37.320
<v Speaker 1>great monologues and laughs. I extend the thank you to Coop, Roberto,

0:27:37.480 --> 0:27:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Eddie and even Gascon. I'll even include Jonas Knox and

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Brady Quinn on that. Really the only times I smiled

0:27:44.200 --> 0:27:46.879
<v Speaker 1>and laughed. Well, thank you, Glenn. You said you've been

0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:51.359
<v Speaker 1>listening to me since five ish. I appreciate that. I

0:27:52.160 --> 0:27:54.399
<v Speaker 1>my dad passed away suddenly this year, as you know,

0:27:54.600 --> 0:27:57.360
<v Speaker 1>my mom had cancer though, so I went through that

0:27:57.480 --> 0:28:01.840
<v Speaker 1>a little bit she had breast answer, she beat that,

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:04.960
<v Speaker 1>actually had she had cancer three times? She beat it

0:28:05.000 --> 0:28:09.560
<v Speaker 1>three times. The fourth time kotor uh, but yeah, she

0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:12.920
<v Speaker 1>it had spread to her liver the last time. So

0:28:12.960 --> 0:28:15.440
<v Speaker 1>I dealt with that. And I know how how horrific

0:28:15.440 --> 0:28:18.159
<v Speaker 1>it is to go to hospice. And you know, you

0:28:18.160 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know, I mean the cooling my mom did. And

0:28:20.520 --> 0:28:23.240
<v Speaker 1>I think she did this intentionally when she When my

0:28:23.320 --> 0:28:26.600
<v Speaker 1>mom went to hospice, they said, well, you know, she

0:28:26.600 --> 0:28:30.440
<v Speaker 1>she might have you know, five months, maybe six, you know,

0:28:30.480 --> 0:28:32.679
<v Speaker 1>who knows, he might be less than that. She lasted

0:28:32.680 --> 0:28:35.760
<v Speaker 1>eleven days in hospice, and I think that's since she

0:28:35.840 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 1>realized I'm not gonna get get out of here. Might

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:40.360
<v Speaker 1>as well, I don't want these kids to suffer, and

0:28:40.880 --> 0:28:44.600
<v Speaker 1>she she checked out. But um my condolences to you gone,

0:28:44.600 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 1>thank you for listening, and I do appreciate. I hope

0:28:47.120 --> 0:28:50.240
<v Speaker 1>you'll continue to listen when things get better and things improved.

0:28:50.960 --> 0:28:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Carlos in Houston, Texas writes and Bang Bang. He says,

0:28:54.000 --> 0:28:57.360
<v Speaker 1>what is the origin story of Justin and Cincinnati? Also,

0:28:57.440 --> 0:29:00.240
<v Speaker 1>did you guys have a crush on any teach hers

0:29:00.320 --> 0:29:05.240
<v Speaker 1>back in the day? Now, I didn't have any hot teachers.

0:29:05.440 --> 0:29:07.800
<v Speaker 1>I had one. I did not. I had a lot

0:29:07.840 --> 0:29:11.800
<v Speaker 1>of older women and like I'm I'm saying older, I'm

0:29:11.880 --> 0:29:16.000
<v Speaker 1>going real old. And I had dudes, So I went

0:29:16.040 --> 0:29:18.840
<v Speaker 1>on the dudes. But you know, for you, for those

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:22.360
<v Speaker 1>of you that are fine, Uh yeah I didn't. Yeah,

0:29:22.400 --> 0:29:26.280
<v Speaker 1>I did not have any. I can't recall. Maybe a

0:29:26.360 --> 0:29:29.640
<v Speaker 1>substitute occasionally would be hot and that would be exciting,

0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>but that would only last a day or two. My

0:29:31.720 --> 0:29:34.760
<v Speaker 1>fourth grade teacher was really hot. Her name was Mrs

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:40.160
<v Speaker 1>tun t o n. She was extremely hot, cravaceous or

0:29:40.240 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 1>just a beautiful, smart, beautiful smile. Yeah, she looked like

0:29:43.160 --> 0:29:47.040
<v Speaker 1>an actress and she was. She actually had a She

0:29:47.160 --> 0:29:50.280
<v Speaker 1>was a bit, which probably made her hotter. Like she

0:29:50.400 --> 0:29:53.760
<v Speaker 1>was that female dog. Yeah, no, she was. She had

0:29:53.800 --> 0:29:57.480
<v Speaker 1>a serious attitude and I always got busted in her class.

0:29:58.600 --> 0:30:02.520
<v Speaker 1>But see that's the con. I always hated women with attitude.

0:30:02.640 --> 0:30:04.800
<v Speaker 1>I was like, you're not better than anybody, what are

0:30:04.800 --> 0:30:07.040
<v Speaker 1>you doing? He did it. I think I'm attracted a

0:30:07.040 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 1>woman with attitude and I can't stand it. I like

0:30:09.760 --> 0:30:12.440
<v Speaker 1>the relatable human being, whether you're a guy or a girl.

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:16.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't need the I'm better than you know, it's

0:30:16.320 --> 0:30:21.040
<v Speaker 1>fuck you. You're not better than me. As far as

0:30:21.080 --> 0:30:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Justin and Cincinnati, Justin's been listening for a very long time.

0:30:26.040 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 1>He has had some odd jobs in Cincinnati. And I

0:30:30.120 --> 0:30:32.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know what you what. I can tell he listens

0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:34.760
<v Speaker 1>to Fox Sports Radio more than our management listens to

0:30:34.800 --> 0:30:37.240
<v Speaker 1>Fox Sports radier guy. He listens all day and all night.

0:30:37.280 --> 0:30:40.080
<v Speaker 1>He knows everything that happens. I don't think he sleeps.

0:30:40.120 --> 0:30:42.080
<v Speaker 1>I think he might be a lizard person Justin and

0:30:42.080 --> 0:30:44.720
<v Speaker 1>he's awake all the time, and he doesn't I don't know.

0:30:45.360 --> 0:30:49.560
<v Speaker 1>I do know that Justin has a ghoulish sense of humor.

0:30:50.320 --> 0:30:54.000
<v Speaker 1>And he did work delivering picking up bodies, and famously

0:30:54.200 --> 0:30:56.760
<v Speaker 1>he claims he picked up the wrong body. He was

0:30:56.760 --> 0:31:00.000
<v Speaker 1>supposed to pick up a white guy's body from the hospital,

0:31:00.160 --> 0:31:01.960
<v Speaker 1>picked up the black guy's body and it became a

0:31:02.000 --> 0:31:04.680
<v Speaker 1>big didn't you didn't you tell me he tried having

0:31:04.720 --> 0:31:08.480
<v Speaker 1>sex with that buddy? No, that's what you you said.

0:31:08.600 --> 0:31:13.880
<v Speaker 1>I didn't necrophilia. Uh. This one was from Scott, formerly

0:31:13.960 --> 0:31:18.840
<v Speaker 1>from Rancho Cucamonga, Quas now in northern Kentucky. He says, Ben,

0:31:19.320 --> 0:31:21.200
<v Speaker 1>first of all, I want to thank for your awesome

0:31:21.240 --> 0:31:23.600
<v Speaker 1>cameo you did for my wife's birthday. Well, you're welcome,

0:31:24.240 --> 0:31:27.760
<v Speaker 1>you wan uh as she tolerates your show better than most.

0:31:27.880 --> 0:31:30.520
<v Speaker 1>I make her listen to it. It was hilarious and

0:31:30.520 --> 0:31:32.320
<v Speaker 1>put a smile on her face. And I'm glactually like that.

0:31:32.680 --> 0:31:35.120
<v Speaker 1>If you were to get a cameo from anyone past

0:31:35.240 --> 0:31:39.160
<v Speaker 1>or present, who would it be from? I suppose Gagon

0:31:39.400 --> 0:31:43.560
<v Speaker 1>can answer that to ha ha ha uh. It would

0:31:43.600 --> 0:31:46.360
<v Speaker 1>be somebody in radio that I you know. Jim Healy

0:31:46.480 --> 0:31:48.560
<v Speaker 1>probably would be the guy, you know if he could

0:31:48.560 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 1>bring him back from the dead, and I was a

0:31:50.560 --> 0:31:52.680
<v Speaker 1>huge fan of his show. It's one of the influences

0:31:52.680 --> 0:31:56.160
<v Speaker 1>why I got into radio. That would be that would

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:57.520
<v Speaker 1>be a big one. I ever got to meet him.

0:31:57.560 --> 0:32:00.840
<v Speaker 1>I've been lucky enough to meet most everyone else in

0:32:00.880 --> 0:32:03.720
<v Speaker 1>one way or another. That I him and Paul Harvey.

0:32:03.760 --> 0:32:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember Paul Harvey. But Art Bell showed up at

0:32:06.040 --> 0:32:08.120
<v Speaker 1>a Christmas party. I was a big fan of Art Bells.

0:32:08.640 --> 0:32:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I got an autograph from Howard String the book signing,

0:32:11.560 --> 0:32:13.120
<v Speaker 1>so I didn't really meet him, but I get an

0:32:13.120 --> 0:32:16.480
<v Speaker 1>autograph right in front of him anyway. Uh. He says

0:32:16.560 --> 0:32:20.680
<v Speaker 1>love to show on the podcast, and he says new nickname,

0:32:20.720 --> 0:32:26.320
<v Speaker 1>perhaps Captain Cameo. Captain Cameo, Yeah, I'm forget a cameo

0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:30.080
<v Speaker 1>would be from Scully Vince Kelly would be I've had

0:32:30.120 --> 0:32:35.080
<v Speaker 1>dinner with not that I'm bragging. All right, Now, here's

0:32:35.120 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 1>the deal. So it's kind of a wonky schedule right

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:39.560
<v Speaker 1>now because I'm in this halfway house situation. So we

0:32:39.560 --> 0:32:43.040
<v Speaker 1>actually are going to record the podcast earlier next week.

0:32:43.080 --> 0:32:45.080
<v Speaker 1>So if if you if I didn't use your email

0:32:58.200 --> 0:32:59.840
<v Speaker 1>you you want to send in a new question, you

0:33:00.080 --> 0:33:03.240

0:33:05.680 --> 0:33:07.680
<v Speaker 1>on Sunday. I don't know. So we'll get that going.

0:33:08.240 --> 0:33:11.600
<v Speaker 1>And thank you for all your amazing contributions a lot

0:33:11.640 --> 0:33:15.560
