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 cutter 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. I hope
Speaker 1: you're having a wonderful day today as we have another
Speaker 1: addition of the Fifth Hour to try to treat your
Speaker 1: boredom from social distancing and the stay at home order
Speaker 1: which is all over the place, and the despair that
Speaker 1: many people are experiencing right now. But we'll help you
Speaker 1: kill a little bit of time right now with this
Speaker 1: edition of the Fifth Hour, because four hours not enough.
Speaker 1: A reminder if you have not yet listened to a
Speaker 1: previous episode with Lenny Distra, I recommend that you do
Speaker 1: that even before you listen to this of the podcast.
Speaker 1: But if you've already heard that, you might want to
Speaker 1: go back and play it again. It's amazing, fascinating, uh
Speaker 1: and captivating the great Lenny Dikester. But as far as
Speaker 1: this edition of the Fifth Hour, we will have an
Speaker 1: extended grab bag lot of listener questions, and we will
Speaker 1: we will have some fun with that. And here to annoy,
Speaker 1: irritate and exasperate you is David Gascott. Yet again, Who's
Speaker 1: with me side by side to frustrate the hell out
Speaker 1: of my life? Do it? I can ben, especially nowadays,
Speaker 1: since we are so far apart, now that you have
Speaker 1: your happy confine set up for a an upper class,
Speaker 1: first class radio studio inside of your hallowed halls to
Speaker 1: the Mallard mansion. So well, I am practicing social distancing,
Speaker 1: and with you, of course, I love practicing social distance,
Speaker 1: the next thing, as far away from you as possible.
Speaker 1: I seem like guesscan I said this jokingly, but I
Speaker 1: really feel more like Rush Limbaugh or Steve Harvey or
Speaker 1: Sean hann that I am now on their level. I
Speaker 1: am doing the shows from my house. I'm wearing my pajamas,
Speaker 1: just doing the show. So I feel like I've finally
Speaker 1: arrived in the radio business. It only took me. I
Speaker 1: don't want to say how long, twenty five years or
Speaker 1: whatever is, but I finally arrived. Finally have I arrived
Speaker 1: in the radio world. Hallelujah? That might be the case too,
Speaker 1: because I earlier this week I connected you with someone
Speaker 1: that has very close ties to Sean Hannity and Rush
Speaker 1: Limbaughs so and Steve Harvey's. So I think that this
Speaker 1: is all coming full circle in large part because of
Speaker 1: me full credit for this. And uh, I know you're
Speaker 1: a pessimist by by heart, and so I do everything
Speaker 1: that I can to put you up on that golden,
Speaker 1: golden pedestal and trying to push my buttons here. I
Speaker 1: try to do that every so often. But how are
Speaker 1: you coping though? Because exercise nutrition? Are you still on
Speaker 1: a level playing field with weight wise in your sanity?
Speaker 1: You know, I really missed the gym. I didn't realize
Speaker 1: I had missed it. I always thought, well, now I
Speaker 1: have the ultimate excuse not to go to the gym,
Speaker 1: But it's it was such a big part of my routine,
Speaker 1: and it's just not the same. I'm walking around aimlessly
Speaker 1: around the streets of my neighborhood and different parts of it.
Speaker 1: I live kind of near three different cities, and I
Speaker 1: just kind of walked through all three cities and and
Speaker 1: it's I feel like just uh and I just like
Speaker 1: wandering aimlessly. I don't even know where I'm going, and
Speaker 1: and just kind of walking out and trying to get
Speaker 1: a certain number of steps every day, and all that
Speaker 1: I missed that I'm still keeping the diet um so
Speaker 1: I'm I'm eating every other day during the week and
Speaker 1: skipping a day here and there, and so I feel
Speaker 1: like I'm I'm pretty good at that. My goal I
Speaker 1: said this a while back, but if you're new to
Speaker 1: the podcast, my goal is to go three hundred and
Speaker 1: sixty five days at least fasting with the minimum threshold.
Speaker 1: On the weekends, I fast for usually seventeen or eighteen hours,
Speaker 1: but during the week I'll skip a couple of days,
Speaker 1: and you know, I try to go minimum twenty three
Speaker 1: hours during the week between meals. So that's worked out.
Speaker 1: And by the way, Gas, there was a message I
Speaker 1: got the other day on Twitter from a guy who
Speaker 1: started the Intermitute fasting and this dude's lost seven teen pounds.
Speaker 1: Paul is the guy's name, and he actually tweeted out
Speaker 1: his stats from an app that he's using, and he
Speaker 1: thanked us, well mainly me probably, but he thanked us
Speaker 1: for helping him lose weight. So congratulations to Paul, good job.
Speaker 1: By you this year, he's already lost seventeen pounds and
Speaker 1: here we are, we're in the third month of the
Speaker 1: year in March. So that's a good job. Good numbers.
Speaker 1: Forty days streaked, that he's on the fasting and as
Speaker 1: long as fast was thirty two hours, that's that's pretty phenomenal.
Speaker 1: It's good job by Paul. Yeah, what are your numbers?
Speaker 1: You wanna you want to do your numbers? It's not good. No,
Speaker 1: you want to do your numbers. I admit, man, I
Speaker 1: I haven't gone in the gym. I went running last
Speaker 1: week on the board walk down in the beach, and
Speaker 1: my legs are still sore. And I was doing some
Speaker 1: I was doing some exercises earlier this week and I
Speaker 1: think I strained my right groin. So like, I'm just
Speaker 1: not doing well right now and not eating as good
Speaker 1: as they normally do. The fasting does help, but I
Speaker 1: need the gym more than ever right now. I couldn't
Speaker 1: believe it. I went to a couple of sporting good
Speaker 1: stores and it costs thirty dollars for one dumb bell.
Speaker 1: Thirty dollars for one fucking dumbell. You gotta go to Walmart.
Speaker 1: They got the cheapest equipment, but even that's going to
Speaker 1: set you back some money. I told you with the wife,
Speaker 1: we were we were thinking about maybe even getting I
Speaker 1: used to have a treadmill. I I was busting her
Speaker 1: balls and I said, you know, we used had a treadmill.
Speaker 1: We still have a treadmill. I wouldn't have to worry
Speaker 1: about it work out at home. And so she's like, well,
Speaker 1: which was by well, buy you know, buy some fugazy
Speaker 1: thing you know, put in the house. I'm so and yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe if this goes long enough, I guess at some
Speaker 1: point there's the cut off where if you don't go
Speaker 1: to the gym for a certain number of days, you
Speaker 1: got to get something like I don't know what should
Speaker 1: I get guests on, though like I would I would
Speaker 1: think I was a big treadmill guy, but I like
Speaker 1: the elliptical machines are pretty cool. That stuff breaks so much, though,
Speaker 1: that's my concern. I think for you, and I don't
Speaker 1: know if you'd want to do this, but I think
Speaker 1: the perfect exercise equipment for you would be the TRX.
Speaker 1: It was it was invented I believe by a Navy
Speaker 1: seal in a submarine and it basically looks like two
Speaker 1: giant ropes, but they're not ropes. But you can latch
Speaker 1: it onto anything that you want, either high or low.
Speaker 1: You use it for for pulling and for pushing. Um.
Speaker 1: You can always use it to plank. You can also
Speaker 1: use it to squat or do lunges. It's a it's
Speaker 1: an all purpose type of apparatus. UM. I would definitely
Speaker 1: recommend looking to a t r X. You haven't. Those
Speaker 1: can't be that expensive because they're just ropes. It's not
Speaker 1: a rope, it's it's like a long cord. UM. I
Speaker 1: don't know how. I'm looking it up. T r X
Speaker 1: system at Walmart, two bucks. That's worth it. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: definitely recommend it. Yeah, because you're, like I said, you
Speaker 1: can do anything on it. Push ups, you can plank,
Speaker 1: you can do pull ups, UM, you can do um
Speaker 1: kind of back raises, shoulder raises, like the whole nine yards.
Speaker 1: It's a it's an all purpose workout for you. Are
Speaker 1: you doing push ups by the way and that stuff
Speaker 1: like push ups and of course not, I'm not doing
Speaker 1: any of that stuff now, we of course not. Why not,
Speaker 1: I'm not. I'm walking al That's the greatest exercise. Is
Speaker 1: a nice walk, so I'm doing it, but I have
Speaker 1: to figure that out anyway, we got grabbed back. These
Speaker 1: are actual questions in our new hybrid podcast where we
Speaker 1: we give you a podcast is every day of the
Speaker 1: week The Mother Show five days a week. One day
Speaker 1: you get too podcasts including our Lenny Dikes Tree extravaganz
Speaker 1: uh and now we have other podcasts for you on
Speaker 1: the weekend as well. Grab back. These are actual questions
Speaker 1: by actual listeners. The first one comes from Brian in Northbridge, Massachusetts.
Speaker 1: He says, man, how can we keep David gascon and
Speaker 1: quarantine and even further away from a microphone? Well, I
Speaker 1: think that's a great idea. I just I mean, I
Speaker 1: gotta have more nights with his girlfriend. That's all come down,
Speaker 1: cowboy money rubbing off on you. Maybe you go buy
Speaker 1: some Infeta mean exactly on line one. Yeah, alright, Fats
Speaker 1: from Philadelphia Rights and I love this guy, Fats. This
Speaker 1: guy's good dude. Man, he sent me a bunch of
Speaker 1: pretzels down uh, he says Ben, growing up, who is
Speaker 1: your favorite WWF wrestler And did you ever see them
Speaker 1: wrestle live? Mine was King Kong Bundy. I saw him
Speaker 1: when I was in fifth grade at a local event,
Speaker 1: I got in trouble for tearing a woman sign up
Speaker 1: for Mr Wonderful Paul. She put me in a headlock
Speaker 1: and security game. That's right. Uh this this guy fats
Speaker 1: as a character. Well facts. I loved wrestling probably around
Speaker 1: I'm probably around your age. I was a big fan
Speaker 1: of the Hulk, Hogan Andre, the Giant Battles, and I
Speaker 1: did see um. I was also such a nerd. I
Speaker 1: loved Mean Gene Oakerland, the the guy that did the
Speaker 1: interviews and the promos for the w w F and
Speaker 1: h I I've told the story I've got I got
Speaker 1: fat eating w w F branded ice cream bars and
Speaker 1: different food that they debuted back in the in the
Speaker 1: nineteen eighties. But I went to the Anaheim Convention Center,
Speaker 1: this Don't Be Arena and just down the road from Disneyland,
Speaker 1: and they had an event there and I went with
Speaker 1: my brother and my mom dropped us off and it
Speaker 1: was a big deal, you know, leave the kids at
Speaker 1: the wrestling event, and we hung out after waiting for
Speaker 1: the wrestlers to walk out. And I remember seeing Mean
Speaker 1: Gene wearing He wore a jumpsuit like an athletic jumpsuit
Speaker 1: after he you know, he wasn't in his tuxedo and
Speaker 1: uh saw like the back of Andre the Giant, and
Speaker 1: I have great memories. Uh Hulk Hogan was at that thing,
Speaker 1: so that was fun. And then later on this is
Speaker 1: really cool, when I was doing a radio promotion and
Speaker 1: I was a celebrity manager for a w WF event.
Speaker 1: One of the coolest things I've ever been able to.
Speaker 1: They picked us up in a limo and they took
Speaker 1: his although it was at a minor league baseball stadium
Speaker 1: in the in the Inland Empire, and it was awesome.
Speaker 1: We we went out and it was the bet I
Speaker 1: was doing the Ben and Dave Show and Dave Smith
Speaker 1: was the manager of the other guys. I was the
Speaker 1: manager of the Headshrinkers. But my favorite part was in
Speaker 1: the locker room hanging out with the wrestlers before because
Speaker 1: we were one of the last events. And I believe
Speaker 1: he passed away a couple years ago. But George the
Speaker 1: Animals steal the legendary George the Animal Steel, the guy
Speaker 1: guest Scott, he's the guy that used to eat the side,
Speaker 1: yeah the ring, and he was in there and we
Speaker 1: were I was hanging in the same goddamn locker room
Speaker 1: with the George the Animal Steel, a guy I grew
Speaker 1: up watching wrestling. How cool is that? And uh and
Speaker 1: also another guy that passed away, Viscera, I think that
Speaker 1: was his name. Remember, he was the the huge black
Speaker 1: guy that had like he wore UM. He had contact
Speaker 1: lenses to make his eyes look correct. You know, he
Speaker 1: was like eight I don't know, maybe not eight hundred pounds,
Speaker 1: but he was at least six seven. He's huge. Um.
Speaker 1: And the funny thing about that guy is he was
Speaker 1: in the match before us and he broke the ring.
Speaker 1: He jumped off the ropes and uh, he fell down
Speaker 1: and he broke the ring and so everything got delaid
Speaker 1: and then he came back in the locker room. I
Speaker 1: can still close my eyes and see this. It's one
Speaker 1: of the funniest things I've ever experienced. And it sucks.
Speaker 1: The guy passed away a couple years ago, but he
Speaker 1: came in there fully decked out, and he had the
Speaker 1: he had the eyes with the contact lenses to make
Speaker 1: him look like Lucifer, and he had the body paint
Speaker 1: on and he's got his head down and the other
Speaker 1: wrestlers are like busting his balls and he's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, guys, I didn't mean to do it. It
Speaker 1: was haw to google him because I didn't recognize that name.
Speaker 1: But now I see that it was Big Daddy V.
Speaker 1: Like he had his name Coup. Yeah, he had a
Speaker 1: couple of different names, um, but at that time he
Speaker 1: was known I think his Viscera or something like that,
Speaker 1: Visra Mabel, Big Daddy V. He was the King of
Speaker 1: the Ring tournament champ in really good dude that Those
Speaker 1: are the two memories I have for that. But I
Speaker 1: love wrestling me in those days, man, you know, because
Speaker 1: we didn't have a lot of entertainment. You know, we
Speaker 1: didn't have a lot going on, and it was like
Speaker 1: big you know, the promos And remember begging my mom
Speaker 1: to let me go to a wrestling event and he's, oh,
Speaker 1: let's just watch it on TV. You do you remember
Speaker 1: when Rick Martell, Rick the Model Martell sprayed his arrogance
Speaker 1: perfume in the eyes of Jake the Snake and made
Speaker 1: him blind. I do remember, yes, yes, yes, I always
Speaker 1: loved when Jake the Snake Roberts would wrestle. I love
Speaker 1: they would have it was the director of the events
Speaker 1: were great because they they'd pain over and they'd have
Speaker 1: the shot of the bag with the snake. Yeah, Damien, Yeah, Damien.
Speaker 1: It was so funny because it was like, oh boy,
Speaker 1: what's that snake is gonna get out of the bag?
Speaker 1: You know it was it was pretty funny. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know what. And in those days, obviously the the neck
Speaker 1: breaker was always Queen Elizabeth ms Elizabeth for Macho Man,
Speaker 1: but those guys had great finishing moves. Macho Man off
Speaker 1: the top row, Million Dollar Dream with ted d Bias,
Speaker 1: Ultimate Warrior, obviously Hogan and his weak ask leg Drop,
Speaker 1: but everyone else I did see once in Las Vegas,
Speaker 1: I actually walked by the same exact day. I don't
Speaker 1: know what the odds of this would be, but I
Speaker 1: walked by Jaws and Andre the Giant. I don't know
Speaker 1: if you remember Jaws, but he was in Golden and
Speaker 1: not Golden he was in Moonraker and James Bond movies.
Speaker 1: So he was in Moon Raker and one other James
Speaker 1: Bond movie. But those guys were absolute beasts. And obviously
Speaker 1: the Andre the Giant you know, passed away at his age,
Speaker 1: but those guys. Did you see the documentary on Andre
Speaker 1: that I did was awesome, And a lot of those
Speaker 1: stories are complete bullshit. They just made him up about
Speaker 1: Andre the Giant, and people believed it. People blot him.
Speaker 1: They're like they I I couldn't believe that all that
Speaker 1: stuff was bullshit. I thought that was real, that he
Speaker 1: drank all those beers on a flight and all that stuff,
Speaker 1: and all the different stories that were told, but great memories.
Speaker 1: Thank you Fats for that. Douglas from Vermont writes and
Speaker 1: he says, guys, if you had to get a piercing,
Speaker 1: where would it be? Where would you get it? And
Speaker 1: you can't choose your ear? All right? So I'll go first,
Speaker 1: your guest gunt now, uh, all right, I'm gonna I
Speaker 1: wanna say the least painful spot I would think would
Speaker 1: be like your nose. I think so I would go nose,
Speaker 1: although it would look really odd. I'm not talking about
Speaker 1: the middle part. I'm talking about the top part. You know.
Speaker 1: It's like women sometimes get their nose pierced on the side,
Speaker 1: like that kind of thing. Guy would do that because
Speaker 1: I think that would be like, I don't think would
Speaker 1: hurt very much. What about you guess when you go
Speaker 1: for the below the belt piercing help you out a
Speaker 1: little bit down there? Yeah, you want me to get
Speaker 1: my ball bag, Pierst. This really is the Letty dextra.

Speaker 1: the nose, but even the top, like in between your
Speaker 1: two eyebrows, um on the cheeks, on the dimples. Oh no,
Speaker 1: that looked painful. I don't know a lot of those.

Speaker 1: company email I had just received really a few moments ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I did not know that. Unfortunately, we're in a we're
Speaker 1: in a new unique spot too, because you know, we
Speaker 1: obviously commute to and from word to our houses and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, for the radio side of things. You you
Speaker 1: were on the radio during the nine eleven attacks, Yes,
Speaker 1: I was. I was on September eleven. I did show,
Speaker 1: did updates that day? Did the company do anything for
Speaker 1: you at the time, like change scheduling or not permit
Speaker 1: you to go anywhere else? You gotta stay locked indoors
Speaker 1: and on the radio for eight nine hours or what?
Speaker 1: Um no? I had. I was doing a shift in
Speaker 1: the early afternoon. I think it was like a noon
Speaker 1: to five or something like that. It was. It was
Speaker 1: all wonky back then, and it was we had the
Speaker 1: studios at the Fox lot in West l A there,
Speaker 1: and I I remember, I just did, as I recall,
Speaker 1: I did the show, the updates, and then my mom
Speaker 1: was freaking out because my brother lives in New York
Speaker 1: and at the time my sister in law was pregnant
Speaker 1: and that whole thing. And then, um, so I remember that.
Speaker 1: And I remember driving by L A X and not
Speaker 1: a single flight. Uh, drove on the four oh five
Speaker 1: by L A X and there was not a single
Speaker 1: plane in the sky that just blew me away. But
Speaker 1: I don't remember them forcing me to stay there. I
Speaker 1: don't think that happened. Yeah, why are you being forced
Speaker 1: to stay? No, no, not at all. It just uh
Speaker 1: people you see people tweeting out on social media that
Speaker 1: they're getting pulled over by cops and issued citations for
Speaker 1: being out. And yeah, we're part of the unique branch
Speaker 1: where we've been issued um company and and federal permission slips,
Speaker 1: if you will, about being able to commute to and
Speaker 1: from work for obviously business purposes. So yeah, in fact,
Speaker 1: I have the I have the letter right here. It's
Speaker 1: on my desk here from Uh it's a kind of
Speaker 1: form letter from the Department of Homeland Security. Yes, and uh,
Speaker 1: this goes all the way through the end of May.
Speaker 1: And it's apparently I had no idea. It's the Communications
Speaker 1: Act of nineteen thirty four. But that is why we
Speaker 1: are allowed to continue. And I love the fact that
Speaker 1: sports radio is a critical situation. So we could flip
Speaker 1: to news if we needed to. Yeah, I mean we could.
Speaker 1: And that's what we did in September eleven that we
Speaker 1: became a news outfit. We talked about the news. It
Speaker 1: was what else are you gonna talk about? Everyone can
Speaker 1: talk about what's going on. Be sure to catch live
Speaker 1: editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am
Speaker 1: Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
Speaker 1: I Heart Radio app. Um, all right, let's keep going
Speaker 1: with the questions. Uh, let's see here. You can't read that,
Speaker 1: Scott from Milwaukee. Act I already read that. I can't
Speaker 1: read it already? Did? Scott from Milwaukee says? Question for Ben,

Speaker 1: You don't understand the kind of emails I'm getting from
Speaker 1: Mark the full name guy. They're good. No, no, this guy.
Speaker 1: He goes from I'm never listening to you again, I
Speaker 1: hate you, and then I'll write back thank you, don't
Speaker 1: ever listen again. And then then he gets all upset
Speaker 1: and sends me seven different emails, and he's out of control.
Speaker 1: He's absolutely out of control. Uh, here's what I'll read one.
Speaker 1: I want me to read one of the emails here,
Speaker 1: which is just a random email he sent me. Uh,
Speaker 1: this is nine hours ago from when we're recording the podcast. Uh,
Speaker 1: this is from Mark the full name guy. He says,
Speaker 1: I know the theme song to the original mission impossible.
Speaker 1: Perhaps I will torment those sad sacks that call themselves
Speaker 1: a militia. Your next mission, band Mallard, should be you
Speaker 1: decide to accept it concerns the whereabouts of one baby
Speaker 1: Mama possibly being held hostage by a popcorn pimp who
Speaker 1: may have possession of her cell phone. The flute then plays,
Speaker 1: should you or any of your operatives be captured or killed?
Speaker 1: Drums come in with piano. That's just a random email
Speaker 1: that he sent. What time of the day was that
Speaker 1: written at or sent? Uh? These are usually sent like
Speaker 1: at four or five in the morning. How about this one?
Speaker 1: Here's another one for this One's entitled this is marked
Speaker 1: the full name. Guy emails this is from uh. What's mark?
Speaker 1: He sent this at four oh two in the morning.

Speaker 1: Marked the full name guy writes, we may very well
Speaker 1: be at war with Iran, just saying I have a
Speaker 1: January New York Times copy in my pad, and there
Speaker 1: was a little chatter about a drone killing some general
Speaker 1: and a Ukraine jet shot down soon following. And I
Speaker 1: told you I stood in a market in the hood tenderloin.
Speaker 1: Yasser Era Fat himself sat in a corner on a
Speaker 1: plastic crate silently. There are sleeper cells everywhere. Be careful,
Speaker 1: so mark the full name. Yeah, I would not hang
Speaker 1: out with him. I can't hang out with weed Man
Speaker 1: because he hasn't taken a shower since nine, so I
Speaker 1: can't do the weed man thing. So I guess I'd
Speaker 1: have to hang out with angry Bill. But he'd probably
Speaker 1: kill me because I'm Jewish. And he's a racist, and
Speaker 1: I send might so I'd be in trouble. Where is
Speaker 1: he at? Is he in Florida? Yeah, he's from Nutley,
Speaker 1: New Jersey, but he lives in uh He lives in
Speaker 1: Jacksonville in that area. I know everyone's history. I know
Speaker 1: it's crazy. I know weed Man was of course from
Speaker 1: New York and was a Wall Street titan, lost everything
Speaker 1: when the stock market crash, and then became homeless and
Speaker 1: moved to Miami. I know that Mark the full name.
Speaker 1: Guys originally from Brooklyn, grew up in New York, moved
Speaker 1: to San Francisco, it was homeless for a while, got
Speaker 1: back on his feet, moved to Medford, Oregon. And I
Speaker 1: know they're like the whole history, it's crazy. I need
Speaker 1: to get a life. Yeah, I mean, I know more
Speaker 1: about these people than I do like people in my
Speaker 1: family or to my cousins. It's a lot about yourself.
Speaker 1: So and actually says more about my cousins because they've
Speaker 1: distanced themselves from me. Many of the cousins I grew
Speaker 1: up with they live. I got a cousin in Florida.
Speaker 1: I got a couple in Florida, I got one in
Speaker 1: uh in Scotland right now. I got one in New York,
Speaker 1: actually a couple in New York, ones in Houston. I
Speaker 1: got people all over the country, but I don't really
Speaker 1: talk to him anymore. Out of sight, out of mind, Yeah,
Speaker 1: something like that. You're not a great communicator anyways, press on,
Speaker 1: fuck you? All right, here we go. This is from
Speaker 1: a new in Owensboro, Kentucky says, where did the rumor
Speaker 1: of your net worth of four million dollars come from?
Speaker 1: And what could you do today to make that a reality?
Speaker 1: All right? That's from a new Um. Well, I knew
Speaker 1: I could get a TV show that would be a start,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we're efforting that. But if that
Speaker 1: ever happens, that would be that would the help close
Speaker 1: the gap. I gotta pay off my kitchen first. But
Speaker 1: I knew it started on the internet, um and it.
Speaker 1: People would just type in Ben Maller and then net
Speaker 1: worth to Google or whatever search engine you have, and
Speaker 1: then they do a calculation of what so and so's
Speaker 1: net worth is. I just love the fact that I
Speaker 1: am on these websites that are like celebrity trending websites,
Speaker 1: which is so I'm not even a celebrity it's so stupid,
Speaker 1: so dumb that they include me in these things. But
Speaker 1: for example, I'm I just I just did it right now,
Speaker 1: guesscon And I clicked on Uh, let's say I clicked
Speaker 1: on trending celebs is the website, and it says, according
Speaker 1: to trend Celebrities now dot com, famous radio host Ben
Speaker 1: Mallor's net worth is one million to five million dollars,
Speaker 1: it says, uh, And then they quote another website says
Speaker 1: Mallard's net worth is six million. So I'm actually worth
Speaker 1: six million. Now, yeah, you know, I'm a great. I
Speaker 1: know how to cook. My my wife told me you
Speaker 1: don't know how to cook, and she need to teach
Speaker 1: you how to cook. I'm a master chef, I said.
Speaker 1: I said, I don't know how to bake, or I
Speaker 1: don't bake. Some better at baking. Let me tell you why,
Speaker 1: because baking cooking you have a little liberty and you
Speaker 1: can be more liberal. Baking you gotta get the exact
Speaker 1: amount of fucking sugar and salt. And if you don't
Speaker 1: get the exact amall, I'm out it tastes like shit.
Speaker 1: So you gotta be perfect. I love that. I'm very meticulous.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you know that. She she sent
Speaker 1: me some some food porn the other day, which was
Speaker 1: some vegan cookies, you know, dallast in some chocolate. It
Speaker 1: looked fantastic and I didn't recognize it at first, so
Speaker 1: I thought she was making those, and I asked her
Speaker 1: to share, and she's like, why don't you bake him?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't fucking bake. I've been baked.
Speaker 1: But obviously you're in quarantine right now and you're still
Speaker 1: having trouble with pizza. So I'm a master chef. I
Speaker 1: cooked the pizza. I take the dough, I put the
Speaker 1: the tomato sauce on. I got the pizza cheese, I
Speaker 1: got that at the turkey pepperoni, a little bell pepper,
Speaker 1: a little onion. Mixed that altogether. It is marvelous, sounds
Speaker 1: absolutely marvelous. Is great. One footnote to a news question, though,
Speaker 1: is the reason that weed Man turned heel, went from
Speaker 1: a pretty boy to a heel is because he got
Speaker 1: upset that I had. He thinks I'm worth like five
Speaker 1: million dollars and I'm not giving him any money. He
Speaker 1: has no idea that I am underwater and I'm in
Speaker 1: a bad spot financially, and I I upgraded my kitchen
Speaker 1: before this all happened with the coronavirus. So God only
Speaker 1: knows what's gonna happen going forward. But you know what
Speaker 1: you need to do to turn this thing around is
Speaker 1: you need to do a lot more networking, a lot
Speaker 1: more communicating. You need to do. You need a lot
Speaker 1: of fire under your ass. I'm here to help, of
Speaker 1: course you are, alright, Jeff, Jeff and was Cohnson. I
Speaker 1: think his last name is Gascon? He says, why does
Speaker 1: Gascon get so much hatred? A real talent? Yes, that's
Speaker 1: must be your Is that your cousin? And Wisconsin checking?
Speaker 1: How many cousins in Wisconsin? West Maister, California, Florida? Dan
Speaker 1: and kalamazoo right in this that's the question, why are
Speaker 1: you just dismissing him? Wasn't a question, It was more
Speaker 1: of a state. No, it was a question. It's kind
Speaker 1: of you should answer his question. That's what you should do. Well.
Speaker 1: The reason Gascon has disliked on the show is because
Speaker 1: people have heard him and he's annoying and he's aggravating,
Speaker 1: and he gets on your nerves and you're bothered by
Speaker 1: the Mallam Militia. You don't like the fact that I
Speaker 1: liked the Mallam Militia more than you, and you're agitated
Speaker 1: by that. It's not true, and so you you try
Speaker 1: to hit my buttons, and you treat this like an inconvenience,
Speaker 1: like this whole podcast thing is inconvenience and all that
Speaker 1: not at all. And you had the liberty of staying
Speaker 1: at home and doing this. And I don't seventy four
Speaker 1: miles just to do this for you and to get
Speaker 1: violent out. No, thank you. I got a huge cross
Speaker 1: on my shoulder. People would love to do a dopey
Speaker 1: little podcast with me? No, I mean, I can't think
Speaker 1: of any but I'm sure there's some people out there
Speaker 1: that we love. How about this? They go through the
Speaker 1: rundown coop. No Eddie, no Roberto, no. See. None of
Speaker 1: those guys will do it because I don't get paid
Speaker 1: for this, and they won't do it unless they get paid,
Speaker 1: and which is probably the wise thing, you know, that's
Speaker 1: the wise thing to do. But I'm like, I have
Speaker 1: diarrhea of the mouth, I get the flowing tongue going on,
Speaker 1: so why not? Speaking of which, I did reach out
Speaker 1: to Terry and we talked about possibly in a few
Speaker 1: days having him on from the UK. So we're gonna
Speaker 1: make that happen. Hey, listen, we we have to do
Speaker 1: more podcast now because people are looking for things to
Speaker 1: distract them and I'm open to do that. Uh. We
Speaker 1: we had Lenny on a previous episode. Our first interview
Speaker 1: was Lenny Dixter. I don't know how you can top that,
Speaker 1: but if you want to recommend somebody, I know that
Speaker 1: Justin Paige Patient zero are Ruby Gobert, Justin and Cincinnati
Speaker 1: who has the coronavirus and is still smoking cigarettes, which
Speaker 1: all doctors tell you do, but Justin he wants to
Speaker 1: have he recommended sid Rosenberg. You're familiar with sid Rosenberg?
Speaker 1: How's he doing? New York talk show host? Used to
Speaker 1: be at w F and now he's at w a BC.
Speaker 1: How he's a Vale Militia guy. Sid Rosenberg's and Malle Militia.
Speaker 1: He used to I used to be his lead in
Speaker 1: when he did a morning show in Miami, and so
Speaker 1: we'll have him on. We still gotta get Tony Bruno,
Speaker 1: Kenny Albert, Okay, we'll do one with Kenny Albert, Chris Myers.
Speaker 1: We can put Chris Cristal do it. We can do that. Look,
Speaker 1: you're just gonna beg for a job, which is really
Speaker 1: kind of coming. It's kind of the idea, right, I
Speaker 1: didn't ask Lenny Dixter for a job. That's a little
Speaker 1: bit different, and he's got no pills to sell you
Speaker 1: at now. See the problem is you're just you're an opportunist. Guest.
Speaker 1: Are we all get this podcast like a challenge? Like
Speaker 1: you said, who can we get on that will advance
Speaker 1: my career? I mean everyone does what's in their best
Speaker 1: interests I mean, is that but I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: advance my career. If I was trying to mask my career,
Speaker 1: I would have quit doing this instead of pay me
Speaker 1: or I'm not doing it, but I'm still doing it right. Well, No,
Speaker 1: it's actually a part of your contract and its specifically
Speaker 1: states that. So it's a little bit of an amendment
Speaker 1: that you failed to recognize. But that's that's good. I mean,
Speaker 1: we're here. Be sure to catch live editions of The
Speaker 1: Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern Pacific. All right,
Speaker 1: Jason and Bakersfield rights in. Uh, he says, in your opinion,
Speaker 1: what is something everyone looks stupid doing well, I'll go first.
Speaker 1: I'll say dancing. I think everyone looks dumb dancing. Some
Speaker 1: people look kind of hot if they're good looking people,
Speaker 1: but they look dumb in general. If you take if
Speaker 1: you turn the music off, they look just stupid. So
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go dancing. Gas. I'm gonna say exercising people
Speaker 1: that are running. People run awkwardly when they run, Some wattle,
Speaker 1: some flap their hands, some are like breathing too heavy.
Speaker 1: I say running people right now, Dan and Kalamazoo says, yeah,
Speaker 1: have you got any good hobo or crackhead stories? Well, Dan,
Speaker 1: just listen to the Overnight show. It's one hobo and
Speaker 1: one crackhead after another they call up. So right, yeah,
Speaker 1: what more do you need? Those are my people, Those
Speaker 1: are my peeps. Uh, let's see Eric and Omaha rights
Speaker 1: and he says, what song would you play over and
Speaker 1: over again to torture gag on? All right? I got this, Eric,
Speaker 1: You know the most repetitive song I can recall recently.
Speaker 1: It was a few years ago. Rihanna she had a
Speaker 1: song called Birthday Cake. Remember that song? She repeated the
Speaker 1: fucking lyric cake over a hundred times. In that goddamn song.
Speaker 1: So I would play that as torture for you. Gag
Speaker 1: on is what I would do. How did you even
Speaker 1: listen to that song in the first place? Like what
Speaker 1: brought you to that? Did Danny or no? No? I
Speaker 1: would listen like on the you know, the radio, the
Speaker 1: radiover edit or whatever. I hear it on the radio.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I listen to. I listen to music radio. Ocasionally
Speaker 1: hear different songs. I don't normally listen to. H Jesse
Speaker 1: from Pomona Rights In He says, I got a question
Speaker 1: you probably won't answer. Yeah, okay, Jesse. With the Clippers
Speaker 1: owner buying the old house the Lakers build, will they
Speaker 1: ever get out of the Lakers shadow or will they
Speaker 1: always just be the other tream in l A uh Well, Jesse,
Speaker 1: first of all, that is a brilliant move. That is
Speaker 1: an alpha move by Steve Ballmer, the Clippers owner, and
Speaker 1: that is the move that will get them out of
Speaker 1: the shadow of the Lakers. How embarrassing is it gonna
Speaker 1: be for the Lakers and the historians that follow that
Speaker 1: team when the l a Clippers in open the jewel,
Speaker 1: the Tajmal Hall of NBA Arenas and the Lakers are
Speaker 1: stuck at dopey Staples Center in downtown when the new
Speaker 1: cool part of Los Angeles is gonna be in the
Speaker 1: hood in Inglewood. You've got the NFL Stadium across the way.
Speaker 1: They are changing that whole area around that is going
Speaker 1: to be the spot, and the Clippers are It's awesome.
Speaker 1: This is the move and the way you change. You
Speaker 1: have to go through a generation, a couple of generations.
Speaker 1: And you know, the old farts aren't gonna ever give
Speaker 1: the Clippers any kind of love. And I get that.
Speaker 1: But the younger people and the Clippers are doing a
Speaker 1: great job their marketing department. They are marketing. They are
Speaker 1: flooding youth basketball leagues with Clipper memorabilia and they're getting
Speaker 1: the kids, the next generations, the future of the world,
Speaker 1: and they're getting these kids to be Clipper fans. And
Speaker 1: I think it's wonderful because these kids, you know, you're
Speaker 1: born In the last fifteen years, the Clippers have been
Speaker 1: better than the Lakers. Certainly the last ten years they've
Speaker 1: been better than the Lakers. What constitutes being better making
Speaker 1: the playoffs, better record, head to head, better record, overall,
Speaker 1: numbers don't matter at all. They do matter. They play
Speaker 1: the games. They matter, every game has. That's where you're
Speaker 1: loser in life, Guest, because I'm working with every game matters,
Speaker 1: Megan writes in Friend of Jayson, Every game matters. You've
Speaker 1: got a guy that takes off every three days. Yeah
Speaker 1: for load management. Fuck, I'm all about it. Man. Hey,
Speaker 1: we're all practicing load management right now. With the coronavirus somewhere,
Speaker 1: we're all Kawhi Leonard right now. Alight, Megan, who's the
Speaker 1: I met her? Very nice woman, A friend of Jay
Speaker 1: Scoop there. Lady friend of Jay Scoop from Seattle says,
Speaker 1: should the Tiger King be in jail for so long?
Speaker 1: Who else should be in there with? Now? I've not
Speaker 1: seen the Tiger King documentary. I'm gonna watch it this
Speaker 1: weekend at some point. I know this is on during
Speaker 1: the weekend. I've not watched it as we were recording
Speaker 1: this podcast. Have you heard about the Tiger King documentary
Speaker 1: on Netflix, Guest. I've heard about it. I heard it's
Speaker 1: painful to watch. I don't. I don't see myself watching
Speaker 1: that at all. I got some old movies in the
Speaker 1: watch Anyways, I'm not gonna be watching that crap. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch it. I'm gonna check it out. Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio has the best a 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 from Matt in Mansfield, Texas.
Speaker 1: He says, Ben Mega dittos. How about that guy's a
Speaker 1: limbo guy? He says, who is better? Who's a better golfer?
Speaker 1: You or gas Can? He says, I've always assumed that
Speaker 1: people who cover sports are good golfers, even Ray Ratto. Uh.
Speaker 1: I love that Matt lives in Mansfield, Texas and knows
Speaker 1: who Ray Ratto is. That is outstanding. That is just
Speaker 1: that's a ten um. Most most non athletes are good
Speaker 1: at golf. I don't golf very often. I've said that
Speaker 1: I really wish I was good at golfing because that's
Speaker 1: where your network, that's where you get jobs. Then I'm
Speaker 1: not good at it. I played in a celebrity golf
Speaker 1: tournament for Fox Sports Radio last year, and it was
Speaker 1: such a debacle. It was such a humiliating, frustrating experience.
Speaker 1: I hit a folding chair, I hit several golf balls
Speaker 1: into the drink, other golf balls into the I I
Speaker 1: lost so many I ran out of golf balls. It
Speaker 1: was insane. And then I was like that' like from
Speaker 1: Happy Gilmore. I'm like walking through the trees trying to
Speaker 1: find my golf ball. It was very frustrating. So I
Speaker 1: suck at golf. I'm pretty good occasionally on the driving
Speaker 1: range because I'm pretty tall and I've got some some muscle,
Speaker 1: and I can drill if I if I hit it perfectly,
Speaker 1: it'll go really far. But other than that, I mean,
Speaker 1: the putting stuff sucks and it's terrible. On um, what
Speaker 1: about you guess and your west of the four oh five,
Speaker 1: So I would assume west of the four oh five
Speaker 1: you very good at golf. Yeah, I played golf when
Speaker 1: I was a kid. My course you did, of course
Speaker 1: you did. My grandfather got rest of soul. Tom he
Speaker 1: had he had passed away from from Alzheimer's. But then
Speaker 1: he was he played college hockey UH at Boston College
Speaker 1: before before the war, and he was drafted and then
Speaker 1: came out here and played a little bit at l
Speaker 1: m U, and then he went from he went from
Speaker 1: the army to the to the l A p D
Speaker 1: and so he obviously retired the skates and started golfing.
Speaker 1: And so when I was young, he taught me how
Speaker 1: to play golf. But when he got sick and he
Speaker 1: passed away. Eventually I was a teenager from from Alzheimer's.
Speaker 1: So um, I still have his golf clubs, and I
Speaker 1: remember last year's in the summertime. I actually dusted those
Speaker 1: things off. Was the first time in like twenty years
Speaker 1: that I touched him, and Um I went to the
Speaker 1: driving range and I was out there for about forty
Speaker 1: five minutes, and I had blisters on both of my
Speaker 1: hands because I was just trying to sleep for the fences.
Speaker 1: I haven't played the game in a long time. I'm
Speaker 1: not a fan of it, but you know, it's part
Speaker 1: of the reason why I haven't, because you know that
Speaker 1: those memories and you don't get them back. So he Oh,
Speaker 1: I wonder who would win it? Because you say you
Speaker 1: haven't played a while, but you did play golf, and
Speaker 1: you know, I wonder if head to head, if we
Speaker 1: went to a pitch and put like, who would who
Speaker 1: would win? We should do that sometimes many many You're
Speaker 1: okay with many at your golf you know, Oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I can do that easily. I mean, I'd rather do
Speaker 1: that the windmill, get the ball in the windmill, you
Speaker 1: know that way. It's better to do that than go
Speaker 1: like paintballing or something, because I'd be shooting your hands.
Speaker 1: I would drill you, you you would I would have no mobility. Man,
Speaker 1: I'm a rock. I don't care. You can shoot me.
Speaker 1: All of that doesn't matter. I'm gonna nail you. You
Speaker 1: know how bad. We have a few more. Jeff in Clarksville, Indiana. Right,
Speaker 1: So he says, Ben, what is the one thing you
Speaker 1: like the most doing radio? What is the one thing
Speaker 1: you hate the most doing radio? He says, he's across
Speaker 1: the river from Louisville, Kentucky. Uh, there you go. Well,
Speaker 1: here's the way I describing It's cool. It's a fun job.
Speaker 1: It's a great job. If you ever get a chance
Speaker 1: to do a radio show, you should do it. Um.
Speaker 1: And I like the fact that every day is different,
Speaker 1: although I can tell you right now not every day
Speaker 1: is different, but we're talking about different things. We I
Speaker 1: love the fact that every day I go to and
Speaker 1: I wake up and I have a full chance. I
Speaker 1: have a blank canvas if you will, And I can
Speaker 1: fill it, and there's always usually new things, and I
Speaker 1: can be creative and try to find different things to
Speaker 1: get people engaged, and I love that. I also love
Speaker 1: the fact that there's the people that follow the show.
Speaker 1: The Mallard militia have been very passionate and I don't
Speaker 1: deserve this. They've been very loyal to me. I've got
Speaker 1: people that have listened to me for ten fift twenty
Speaker 1: years on the radio. Over twenty years, Doc Mike and
Speaker 1: guys like that, So I love that. UM people have
Speaker 1: have been pen pals with me, and they've they've become
Speaker 1: married and gotten kids, and their kids have grown up
Speaker 1: and gone to high school, summer, even in college and beyond,
Speaker 1: and that's pretty cool. That's wild to me because I
Speaker 1: don't think the time. I don't realize that the time
Speaker 1: has gone by that quick. The thing I hate most
Speaker 1: about radio is the instability of the business. It's a
Speaker 1: very fickle industry, UM, But I feel like all industries
Speaker 1: are like that to some degree or another. And the
Speaker 1: cool thing about the broadcasting businesses now because of things
Speaker 1: like this podcast. Before you were at the mercy of
Speaker 1: your employer, but now with the podcast, I've got friends
Speaker 1: I used to work with in radio that make more
Speaker 1: money now, you know, charging five bucks a month for
Speaker 1: their podcast. They lost the radio job and they they
Speaker 1: they're making a killing doing things like that. So there's
Speaker 1: different ways you can do it. But that's the downside.
Speaker 1: But other than that, it's more good than bad. So
Speaker 1: um Sean and Nashville rights and he says, uh, would
Speaker 1: you rather page down? Page down? Page down? Uh? Never
Speaker 1: witnessed the Dodgers back in the World Series or be
Speaker 1: kicked below the belt by and then I cut off
Speaker 1: the end here. I think probably some kind of wild animal. Um, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't. I mean, you can kick me
Speaker 1: below the belt. I don't care. I mean, it's not though,
Speaker 1: I don't really benefit from the Dodgers winning, other than
Speaker 1: I can just be an annoying schmuck. But I'm not anyway,
Speaker 1: Like it's not like I worked for the Dodgers anymore.
Speaker 1: When I was doing Dodger talk, I might have gotten
Speaker 1: a World Series ring, which would have been pretty cool.
Speaker 1: Of course, when I was doing it, they blew. They
Speaker 1: had all these high prize players and they didn't win.
Speaker 1: Uh No, this was Kevin Brown, Gary Sheffield, that era
Speaker 1: of Dodger baseball. Yeah, he was around Mandy. I was
Speaker 1: tight with Mandy. We were Rookies of the Year together
Speaker 1: in the early nineties. Me and Mandy. They ran what
Speaker 1: five straight years with Rookie of the years yep, five
Speaker 1: consecutive years and had day O Nomo, Hollandsworth, Piazza, Caros, Manda.
Speaker 1: See all that era and what did it get them? All? Right,
Speaker 1: Stephen Louisville. Right, So he says formally from Indiana or
Speaker 1: from Indy rather, he says, well, garlic, keep COVID nineteen away. Nope, Uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go No, although Doc Mike. Doc Mike might
Speaker 1: disagree because he thinks you just drink your pists and
Speaker 1: do good. You know, that's what he thinks. I think.
Speaker 1: I love garlic, but I'm pretty sure it's not gonna
Speaker 1: keep you safe from corona the virus. Yeah. Everything they
Speaker 1: say to take, at least for supplement wise, zinc not
Speaker 1: in an empty stomach, zinc, vitamin C, vitamin D UM
Speaker 1: pound that as much and obviously water and uh and
Speaker 1: get plenty of We're doing a lot of um at
Speaker 1: the Mallard mansion. My wife a hippie, and we're doing
Speaker 1: a lot of fruit smoothies. That's good vegetables and the
Speaker 1: fruit and makes all that together. She took some of
Speaker 1: the recipes that I had posted on Instagram, and he's
Speaker 1: big on the pomegranate juice. She thinks that's really good
Speaker 1: for you, pomegranate. Big fanom buying into the pomegranate. I've
Speaker 1: never had pomegranate before a couple of years ago. I
Speaker 1: don't think it was it regularly produced other than a
Speaker 1: few years ago. Are you at least adding some peanut
Speaker 1: butter or anything that kind of gives it a good
Speaker 1: kick for taste? Well, whatever she puts in there, all eat.
Speaker 1: You know, whatever whatever is in there, um good. Uh.
Speaker 1: Let's see Carlos from Houston writes and he says, who
Speaker 1: is the big voice guy on the incident vice line?
Speaker 1: I don't know, Carlos. I don't know. There's a few
Speaker 1: people that have big voices they call in. I don't
Speaker 1: I don't know who Ron and Rockport, indianisis Ben? When
Speaker 1: is the next talent show? I don't have a date. Ron.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking that if this continues, sometime in April, um,
Speaker 1: because we're not gonna have sports in April. And so
Speaker 1: we're gonna need some content, and I think that would
Speaker 1: be a great time to have another talent show in
Speaker 1: in April, and J Jay Scoops better start preparing and
Speaker 1: all the other fine members of the Mallamlicia. So if
Speaker 1: you have a talent and you want to be part
Speaker 1: of that, I'll let you know more. But the way
Speaker 1: it's looking right now, unless we start getting sports back
Speaker 1: in April, we're gonna have the talent show in April.
Speaker 1: So what's gonna happen? What else? Vernon from San Diego
Speaker 1: rights and he says, if Costco never brings back the samples,
Speaker 1: what will you do? Will you do a boycott? Is
Speaker 1: that in order? Uh? Yeah, listen, I am a big
Speaker 1: fan of the Osco sample. Been very clear about that, Vernon.
Speaker 1: It's a big part of my life. It's a big
Speaker 1: part of my routine on the weekends. I I often
Speaker 1: go to Costco twice on the weekends, one day to
Speaker 1: shop and the other day just eat samples. Um. I
Speaker 1: openly admit that, and I'm not bashful about that. I'm
Speaker 1: bummed out, but I would probably stand. I would probably
Speaker 1: do some kind of rhythmic chant uh for Costco. I
Speaker 1: would do some kind of rhythmic chant. You know, what
Speaker 1: do we want samples? When do we want it now?
Speaker 1: You know, something like that. But you're the only one
Speaker 1: that likes get up, get down. There's a sample movement
Speaker 1: in this town. You're the only one likes the samples though, right,
Speaker 1: your your wife doesn't like the samples. No, no, she
Speaker 1: doesn't because she's doing the dopey gluten free thing, so
Speaker 1: she can't eat most of the stuff anyway. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: because most of it's not gluten free. What do you
Speaker 1: think which chance better? What do we want samples? What
Speaker 1: do we want it now? It's pretty good? Right? Or
Speaker 1: or what's the alternative? What's that? What's the alternative? Get up,
Speaker 1: get down? There's a sample movement in this town. Oh,
Speaker 1: you should do that. You should do it like an
Speaker 1: updown or like a y m C a kind of model.
Speaker 1: You should do it like get up, get down. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like that one, two, three, four, We don't want your
Speaker 1: fucking war two four or six eight, Stop the violence,
Speaker 1: stop the hey, bring back the samples. You should be
Speaker 1: in d C with that one. Yeah. I could be
Speaker 1: a political protester. I know all the I know all
Speaker 1: the lyrics. Hey, Hey, ho ho, Costco's gotta go there
Speaker 1: we go. Hey, come on, you are well versed, my friend,
Speaker 1: I know all of them. There's only like four or
Speaker 1: five different protest chants that they do, no justice, no peace? Right?
Speaker 1: Whose streets are streets? Right? Whose samples are a sample?
Speaker 1: What do you think? We have a bunch of other questions,
Speaker 1: but we have hit the end of the road, gascon, Yes,
Speaker 1: the end of the road, as they said, yes, yes,
Speaker 1: anything to promote here, gas on. You know what, that's
Speaker 1: a good reminder. I got a care package this week.
Speaker 1: And I know you're a big fan of plugging. Um,
Speaker 1: I'm only when it helps me. Well it might in
Speaker 1: some ways, you know. I've I've worked on a couple
Speaker 1: of different platforms and one of the sponsors, a clothing
Speaker 1: line down in San Diego called viry Um sent me
Speaker 1: a care package earlier this week. Um. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of fitness products like Nike, under Armor, Reebok, all these companies.

Speaker 1: some workout shorts. You gotta check it out, man, go online.
Speaker 1: It's a wait, wait, wait, how come I didn't get
Speaker 1: any I'm the star of the show. Well that's the debatable,
Speaker 1: like maybe a star, but it's the brightest star. Wait
Speaker 1: wait wait holds different you know wait wait wait wait
Speaker 1: time what that means? You're actually getting paid for this
Speaker 1: and I'm not getting paid things because I didn't get anything.
Speaker 1: It's it's I don't even get a pat on the
Speaker 1: back or an out of boy. Well, it's more quality
Speaker 1: than quantity. And I think you would agree with me
Speaker 1: and that that the voice is a little bit different
Speaker 1: when it comes from me, and so I think that
Speaker 1: that's more about mark ability. And here I am for them. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: you know, I voiced over an HBO commercial for a
Speaker 1: documentary which is going to be airing on radio stations
Speaker 1: this week for who me No no, for like what
Speaker 1: I heart media. I've voiced over an HBO commercial read
Speaker 1: for this college basketball documentary which Dave used and you
Speaker 1: better watch it. It's supposed to be really good. March
Speaker 1: twenty Was it based on Arizona on Arizona Wildcast? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's on the it's on the shoe scandal, and it's
Speaker 1: really from what I understand, it's i've actually seen it yet.
Speaker 1: But I've heard amazing things about it, like this is
Speaker 1: gonna be just blowing the lid off of that scandal,
Speaker 1: and some people are gonna end up losing their jobs
Speaker 1: because of this, supposedly. I saw some tweets about it,
Speaker 1: like I guess, like Sean Miller is the one guy
Speaker 1: that said is it's just perplexing why he will still
Speaker 1: have a job after this even if he does. But
Speaker 1: that's great. I mean I would need you should pass
Speaker 1: some of that stuff my way. I mean I always
Speaker 1: do some veal work. Well, I mean, why don't you
Speaker 1: pass a couple of T shirts my way or jumpsuit
Speaker 1: or something like that, and we can, you know, go
Speaker 1: back and forth. Yes, But I guess the one thing
Speaker 1: is those your your body shape is always changing. We
Speaker 1: talked about your suits, and you said you don't want
Speaker 1: to hem them. You want to wait till you lose
Speaker 1: the most amount of weight possible before you buy. No,
Speaker 1: but I'm willing to break that protocol for new clothing.
Speaker 1: But I don't. Yeah, I don't like to change my
Speaker 1: clothing because I did it before and then I gained
Speaker 1: a lot of weight back. So I'm paranoid. I'm superstitious.
Speaker 1: That if I suddenly change my whole wardrobe around and
Speaker 1: get rid of my fat clothes and buy clothes that
Speaker 1: actually will fit, then then I'll just start eating, you know,
Speaker 1: triple cheeseburgers every day and cheese puffs, and then I'll
Speaker 1: be back up to where I was before. So I'm
Speaker 1: paranoid about that. It'll be a little dangerous if you
Speaker 1: wear this attire because I could see you wearing it
Speaker 1: all day, like you could be one of those people
Speaker 1: like that's in quarantine right now, that doesn't shower and
Speaker 1: just sits in the same attire for like eighteen nineteen
Speaker 1: hours until How do you know I'm not that? How
Speaker 1: do you know that I'm not doing that right now?
Speaker 1: Because you admitted earlier that you were walking. You've been
Speaker 1: walking around the blocks I have been walking, so you've
Speaker 1: been doing that at least. So I can't wear my beature.
Speaker 1: I can't go full white trash wearing my pajamas walking around. No,
Speaker 1: I've not done that, and my my wife beat or
Speaker 1: T shirt I'm not doing. But this attire almost looks
Speaker 1: like pj's that's how comfortable it is. The sweats, the
Speaker 1: short if I had some gascout I'm sure it'd be.
Speaker 1: You know, I could brag about it, but I don't
Speaker 1: have any gas, and I'm not like you. I am
Speaker 1: I getting paid for this podcast. You can no longer
Speaker 1: complain about the podcast. You're getting free swag. I don't
Speaker 1: get any free swag nothing, zero zip bo kiss. How
Speaker 1: about this? How about you go online? The website is

Speaker 1: the Fox Sports Radio Studios. I love them. I've worked
Speaker 1: there for twenty years. I love the guy co Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio students. The problem is not me. It's the
Speaker 1: other unwashed animals that work there. And that's the concerned.

Speaker 1: because you know, that's a twenty four hour that's like
Speaker 1: a subway car, you know in Manhattani of the l
Speaker 1: and the kind of varmints that work there, and uh,
