Speaker 1: If you thought more 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 soul fashion harness. He treats crackheads
Speaker 1: in the ghetto cutter the same as the rich pill
Speaker 1: poppers in the penthouse, to clearinghouse of hot takes, break
Speaker 1: free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller
Speaker 1: starts right now. That it does. We are in the
Speaker 1: air everywhere, but not on the place where normally at
Speaker 1: We are only on the I Heart podcast network because
Speaker 1: four hours or not enough. It is the Fifth Hour,
Speaker 1: which likely will have very few sports references in this edition.
Speaker 1: But it's me Ben Mallory. Hey, I hope you're doing well,
Speaker 1: having a good weekend here as the weekend has begun.
Speaker 1: If you hear the Fifth Hour, that means that the
Speaker 1: weekend is underway for us, because it only debuts it
Speaker 1: only at this point. It only goes out when we're
Speaker 1: not doing the the Overnight Show. But uh and and
Speaker 1: I have again not by popular demand, David Gascon, who
Speaker 1: is writing Shotgun back in the Saddle, trying to sabotage
Speaker 1: what's going to be a very appetizing I would say
Speaker 1: even juicy edition of the Fifth Hour. So here's what
Speaker 1: we have that the menu. So I like to give
Speaker 1: the menu out so you know what's what to look
Speaker 1: forward to, so you don't miss anything. But on today's
Speaker 1: edition in the Fifth Hour with Ben Maller and that
Speaker 1: other guy Gascon affectionately known as Gagon, we gave him
Speaker 1: a new nickname last week. If you missed the podcast,
Speaker 1: go back and download last week's podcast Gascon's new nickname
Speaker 1: and homage to Penn and teller bullshit, that's his new nickname.
Speaker 1: So it's exciting there we can't say that word on
Speaker 1: this Thank god for that. I've been a big advocate
Speaker 1: over the years of the word ship and we are
Speaker 1: very happy that we get to include that word in
Speaker 1: the podcast. I feel it's a good word. It's a
Speaker 1: solid word. It's a word that we should all be
Speaker 1: able to use as adults. Anyway, this is gonna be
Speaker 1: like a juicy lucy burger. You ever had a juicy
Speaker 1: lucy burger? With about it? In Vegas, here, in Los Angeles,
Speaker 1: sometimes in New York. Of course, it's such a world traveler,
Speaker 1: such a bragg braggert, as they say, right of course, alright,
Speaker 1: So we have the weather Ranger. That's a new thing,
Speaker 1: the weather Ranger food picks that's inspired by Marcel and Brooklyn.
Speaker 1: We just mentioned a food dish. What else do we
Speaker 1: have on the rundown? We have study this. That's another
Speaker 1: thing that we're going to experiment with here on the
Speaker 1: fifth This is pretty much you're you're you're all guinea
Speaker 1: pigs and we're just trying stuff to see what works.
Speaker 1: We're throwing spaghetti against the wall to see anything stakes.
Speaker 1: And we have it's in the bag for the third
Speaker 1: consecutive fifth hour with Ben Maller and Gagon, we have
Speaker 1: it's in the bag. And also don't stick the sports
Speaker 1: stories of the week. So that's what we got. What
Speaker 1: we start with the weather and this inspired not by
Speaker 1: the Mexican doppler which Roberto has, is this is the
Speaker 1: Mega Mallard doppler, which we have on this show. But
Speaker 1: the story here, I saw this the other day and
Speaker 1: I feel like we need to spend more time on this.
Speaker 1: So there was a study done that compiled all of
Speaker 1: the weather caused fatalities the people that met their demise
Speaker 1: because of in many ways an act of God right
Speaker 1: because either stream weather and one condition or another some
Speaker 1: massive storm or something like that. And what they did
Speaker 1: is they put a chart together of the United States,
Speaker 1: and it's not just the continental United States, also includes
Speaker 1: Alaska and Hawaii. And I always curious if you're hypochondriact
Speaker 1: type of person, you think you're gonna meet your your demise.
Speaker 1: But I think most of us are like that. Like
Speaker 1: if you see something on the news that there's some
Speaker 1: pandemic going around, and I know I often think about crap,
Speaker 1: I probably have it. I'm like, oh man, I'm I'm screwed.
Speaker 1: I got that whatever that is, you know, even if
Speaker 1: it's like one out of every seven million people, I'm like,
Speaker 1: I must be the one. I must be the one.
Speaker 1: And then you're going like web Md, which we often
Speaker 1: kid around about on the Overnight show Guests Gone, But
Speaker 1: you go on web Md and you type in your
Speaker 1: symptoms and you are convinced you are you have stage
Speaker 1: seven cancer and you're going to die within like a month, right?
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that the first thing you do before
Speaker 1: you go to bed or when you wake up in
Speaker 1: the morning when you're not feeling well. Uh well, I
Speaker 1: usually I've been feeling pretty good since I did this
Speaker 1: I changed my diet and I haven't had any problem.
Speaker 1: But but if I do get sick, I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: this is every time I get a cold. I'm like,
Speaker 1: it's never gonna go away. I'm gonna have a cold
Speaker 1: forever and ever. This is gonna be the rest of
Speaker 1: my life. I'm gonna have laryngitis and as a nightmare.
Speaker 1: But amazingly, so far, everything I've had is gone away,
Speaker 1: so that's positive. But anyway, alright, so what we're gonna
Speaker 1: do here for this little exercise, guest, you can keep
Speaker 1: track of this, all right? You will pick a state.
Speaker 1: You've got fifty options here. Now, don't pick main because
Speaker 1: I already used Maine on the radio show, but just
Speaker 1: picking a random state, and then we'll see if you
Speaker 1: can guess what the weather related cause of death and
Speaker 1: the most frequent cause of people dying in that particular state.
Speaker 1: All right, fair enough? All right? So where where do
Speaker 1: you want to start here? And I know you have
Speaker 1: a a fiction affliction with Montana? Do you want to
Speaker 1: start with Montana? Affection for Montana? Yeah, I mean chef's choice.
Speaker 1: Let's do Montana first, then chef's choice. Alright, very good,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna lead you to water, so hopefully you will
Speaker 1: drink here. Now, what do you think the leading cause
Speaker 1: of that? There's three according to this map that I
Speaker 1: have here, there's three things that have led to the
Speaker 1: demise most often weather related demise of people in the
Speaker 1: last What do you think, I'm gonna say tornadoes? No,
Speaker 1: that is not on the list, alright, right, anything else?
Speaker 1: You got any other I'm gonna say Montana, I'll say
Speaker 1: something easy. Rain kind of it's it's lightning one of them.
Speaker 1: Most of the state, you are most likely to die
Speaker 1: with an avalanche. That there could be an avalanche on you,
Speaker 1: and that's what you're gonna die. And just extreme cold
Speaker 1: in the northern part of Montana. Uh. And that's that's
Speaker 1: actually true of pretty much the entire Upper Midwest. Is
Speaker 1: like our friends in Minnesota, we a lot of guys
Speaker 1: that love the show The Mallet of Militia Men in Minnesota.
Speaker 1: But like you live in Minnesota, You've got It's weird
Speaker 1: because you've got most of the state the leading cause
Speaker 1: of weather related death is extreme cold. You also at
Speaker 1: the very top, you've got this this area where you
Speaker 1: could you know, the flood thing and then the very bottom,
Speaker 1: which is odd to me. You've got extreme heat, how hot,
Speaker 1: and only it gets that hot, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I was, And that's that's fascinating because
Speaker 1: in maybe we're gonna look at different states. But I mean,
Speaker 1: don't forget the Super Bowls in Minnesota a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago, and fortunate for our Fox crew, everyone was
Speaker 1: inside because the entire week it was reason temperatures were
Speaker 1: we're close to single digits. I think the entire time
Speaker 1: they were out there before opening kickoff. So well, they
Speaker 1: got all those catwalks right in Minnesota. Like, I've only
Speaker 1: been to the airport in Minnesota. I guess spend some
Speaker 1: time there, like to hang out, but there's only like
Speaker 1: two months a year you can go where the weather
Speaker 1: is beautiful, and the rest of the time it's like
Speaker 1: what the hell is going on there? Yeah, you can
Speaker 1: just hang out in the world's biggest mall, I guess
Speaker 1: for the time being. Right, Well, they and they've got
Speaker 1: all those tunnels, right, That's why my guys in Minnesota says, well,
Speaker 1: during the winter, we just don't go outside. I remember
Speaker 1: a story the late great Sean Rooks. You probably do.
Speaker 1: You remember good guy he met his untimely demise, very
Speaker 1: sad a few years ago. But Sean looks I was
Speaker 1: sitting with him. Uh and the Prince of darkness Lee Klein,
Speaker 1: who you you know, and that we should get him
Speaker 1: on this podcast. But you don't want any guests, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: guard everything. We had a conversation with some tacos with
Speaker 1: Lee and you cut off the conversation with Lee because
Speaker 1: he was spinning all the way down the rabbits hole
Speaker 1: and you don't want me to go down there with them. Well,
Speaker 1: because Lee, when you and I love and there's a
Speaker 1: lot of people that follow me that remember Lee as
Speaker 1: a talk show host. He worked at Fox briefly and
Speaker 1: but and the Idea of Sports show with him long
Speaker 1: and twenty years ago. But he's mostly a political like KFI,
Speaker 1: which is the big news station l A. Worked I
Speaker 1: think KBC also, which is a talk station in l A.
Speaker 1: And so, but he you go to dinner with him,
Speaker 1: and he goes into talk show political talk show mode
Speaker 1: where he's like breaking down the government and he hates
Speaker 1: all politicians, Republican, Democrat, pretty much all of them. So
Speaker 1: he just unloads on on everyone, uh, the entire time
Speaker 1: and it's uh, it's unnerving and never ending, and but
Speaker 1: I love him anyway. He's entertaining, but he's just over
Speaker 1: the top. But he was giving me some great stories
Speaker 1: and we were having a serious conversation eating some tacos,
Speaker 1: and then you butt in and you tell me the
Speaker 1: story that you had with him where you had him
Speaker 1: doing opening monologue to dead air. Well, well, yeah, I'd
Speaker 1: like to have him on too. Reminisce about that. But
Speaker 1: one of the great stories. And radio so we were
Speaker 1: and we did we did this show. I was back
Speaker 1: in the local radio days. It was like, uh, the
Speaker 1: old West. I mean it was it was ridiculous, man,
Speaker 1: with the kind of stuff. It was animal House and
Speaker 1: and all that back in those days. And so we
Speaker 1: we remember the station was kind of start up station
Speaker 1: and we were all doing remote. We're doing extra shows
Speaker 1: on the weekend night, a show during the week at night,
Speaker 1: and then we had a Saturday morning show because the
Speaker 1: program director determined dudes get up early on Saturday because
Speaker 1: they have to do their their work around the house
Speaker 1: and run errands and all that crep. So they're people
Speaker 1: listening on Saturday. It's like it's a morning drive, you know.
Speaker 1: It's built a lot of people, big audience on a
Speaker 1: Saturday morning. So whatever, right, we'll do a Saturday show.
Speaker 1: So we did a lot of remotes. We go to
Speaker 1: these different restaurants and stores and whatnot. We you do
Speaker 1: in local radio, at least in those days, and they
Speaker 1: don't think gonna do it that much anymore. So we
Speaker 1: showed up. Uh we we uh we would go on
Speaker 1: as your us. But but Lee had a show after ours,
Speaker 1: and sometimes we would go to different places. This particular Saturday, Uh,
Speaker 1: Lee somehow ended up at a remote we were not at.
Speaker 1: So we were on the air, we got off the air,
Speaker 1: and they could not the the engineer had trouble connecting
Speaker 1: to Lee on the remote broadcast site. And so for
Speaker 1: some reason, the person on site, the engineer was apparently
Speaker 1: afraid to tell Lee the issue, because you know, Lee
Speaker 1: has a bit of a temper, and so so they
Speaker 1: just told him to start the show like it was
Speaker 1: a regular show, and then uh, they finally connected by
Speaker 1: the end of the very end of the monologue he did.
Speaker 1: And then I I was standing right behind the board
Speaker 1: op and I I jumped on the microphone. I said, Hey, Lee,
Speaker 1: that was a wonderful monologue. Nobody heard it, and he
Speaker 1: got so upset. He was so so, so vicious. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of lead Cline stories. I gotta get
Speaker 1: back to Sean ro because Sean looks my Minnesota story
Speaker 1: gas Gun so uh. He's telling me he played with
Speaker 1: the Timberwolves back in the day and he didn't realize
Speaker 1: how cold it got Minnesota. He said he was running errands,
Speaker 1: like on a day off for the Timberwolves, and he
Speaker 1: went and got a cup of coffee and then he
Speaker 1: went to the bank. He like, he said, he uh,
Speaker 1: he had to go get some some money or whatever
Speaker 1: the bank, just to do his banking. So he parked
Speaker 1: the car in front of the bank. It's like one
Speaker 1: of those five minute things, you know where. I was
Speaker 1: gonna park it here, and he forgot to close his
Speaker 1: door right all the way came back and he had
Speaker 1: from a piping hot coffee, he had an ice coffee
Speaker 1: by the time he got back in like five minutes.
Speaker 1: It was that cool old man. That's how insane is that?
Speaker 1: That that is that is brutal. I remember my first
Speaker 1: ever trip to Chicago a few years ago. I actually
Speaker 1: went in January, and I think it was during the
Speaker 1: a f C Division round matchup where Tennessee lost at
Speaker 1: New England. And I had gone to a Blackhawks game
Speaker 1: at the United Center that night and I had gone
Speaker 1: outside for I kid you not, Ben maybe seven to
Speaker 1: eight minutes at the post and my ears were like bricks.
Speaker 1: It was so painful. And I had no ear mufs.
Speaker 1: I had gloves on but a jacket. But you know,
Speaker 1: being from Los Angeles, I didn't. I didn't. I don't
Speaker 1: have a lot of winter attire, right, so going out there,
Speaker 1: I've done the same I'm as dumb as you. I've
Speaker 1: done the same thing I was in when I when
Speaker 1: I did that TV thing for like a year, they
Speaker 1: flew me back to Connecticut every month, and I would
Speaker 1: you know, even you know, in the winter, you know,
Speaker 1: and so I we would go out sometimes after the
Speaker 1: show or whatever. We'd go There was Bobby vs. Bobby.
Speaker 1: Valentine's got a restaurant in Stanford, Connecticut was my spot
Speaker 1: because it was close to the to the hotel. It
Speaker 1: was like, uh, you know, four blocks from the hotel.
Speaker 1: I was standing out whatever. So I go there and
Speaker 1: in the winter, I remember it was it was really
Speaker 1: like ridiculously cold, and Stanford, Connectic it gets colder, but
Speaker 1: even you get that cold, it was really cold and
Speaker 1: so but for some reason, I was like, you know,
Speaker 1: I didn't want to take a cab or an uber
Speaker 1: and I don't even if they had uber back then,
Speaker 1: but I didn't want to take a cab, and so
Speaker 1: I was like, I just walk, you know, it's no
Speaker 1: big deal. And by the time I got back, I
Speaker 1: thought I had frost bite. By the time I got
Speaker 1: back to the hotel, I was like, what am I doing?
Speaker 1: The whole I mean, it's just yeah, I think it's
Speaker 1: partially because you're not prepared for It's like you put
Speaker 1: somebody in the really extreme heat that's not used to it.
Speaker 1: You're you know what I mean, he's part of it.
Speaker 1: Were at least wearing pants because I know you're not
Speaker 1: a pants kind of guy. You're usually bath robe. You know,
Speaker 1: I live the bohemian lifestyle. Yeah, you do. Here at
Speaker 1: I blame my wife for that. She's responsible for the
Speaker 1: influence of the bohemian lifestyle. Nothing wrong with that. The
Speaker 1: Voyer experience with the with the Mallards. Right, alright, so
Speaker 1: another state, give me how about this, let's do what
Speaker 1: about Hawaii? Hawaii. Alright, No, Hawaii is a small state.
Speaker 1: There's only one thing, there's not multiple things. What do
Speaker 1: you think would be the weather related cause of people's
Speaker 1: demise in Hawaii? Something that is perfectly avoidable. I'm gonna say, um,
Speaker 1: weather related? What all these are? Weather related? I mean
Speaker 1: that's why we're doing. Yes, whether you said weather related
Speaker 1: but avoidable, yes, yes, it's this is I'll just give
Speaker 1: you the answer. They they say that the leading cause
Speaker 1: of fatalities in Hawaii, it's weather related. No extreme surf.
Speaker 1: You know when they have the storms come through and
Speaker 1: those idiots are out on their surfboards and they get
Speaker 1: they get smashed by a wave and they die. That's
Speaker 1: leading cause of weather related I was in Hawaii one
Speaker 1: time with my wife a couple of years ago, and
Speaker 1: they had We were to kmart, which tells you how
Speaker 1: good our trip to Hawaii was. In the area, well,
Speaker 1: there was a costco, but the kmart was going out
Speaker 1: of business, so we had to get the rug mother
Speaker 1: and uh so we went there and watch your language.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell your your parents about that day. Anyway. So,
Speaker 1: uh so, as in in the kmart and there was
Speaker 1: a tropical storm that had come through and the power
Speaker 1: turned off in the kmart. We were sitting you on
Speaker 1: the pitch black in this big warehouse store thing. And
Speaker 1: then uh, and then I had to go and get
Speaker 1: the car. And it was so I got so wet
Speaker 1: and so drenched from that like a monsoon or a
Speaker 1: typhoon or whatever. It was insane. It was like the
Speaker 1: worst that in in Buffalo were the two worst weather
Speaker 1: like related things that I've been in. When I was
Speaker 1: driving out of Buffalo down to back to New York
Speaker 1: City and the weather it was, I had to stop
Speaker 1: on the New York Expressway because I could not see
Speaker 1: in front or behind me, and I was worried I
Speaker 1: was gonna hit a car, but everyone was stopped. It
Speaker 1: was I've never seen that before. Now since from the
Speaker 1: land of earthquakes, you bring this up, are you prepared
Speaker 1: for a natural disaster here in California? Do you have
Speaker 1: like an emergency kit and some some supplies and good
Speaker 1: So the way I'll answer that, first of all, I uh,
Speaker 1: I am not. My wife is though, so I feel
Speaker 1: like I'm the beneficiary of that that she is because
Speaker 1: she works at the police station and all that, so
Speaker 1: she's got all the you know, these ey tell her,
Speaker 1: you know, they tell you what you're supposed to have
Speaker 1: and when you light flashlights and food rations and all.
Speaker 1: So she's got all that stuff. But but no, I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone's actually prepared for if it's a
Speaker 1: massive earthquake, it's like, you know, ten point seven or
Speaker 1: something like that on the Richter scale. I don't think
Speaker 1: it really matters what you have. But in my entire life,
Speaker 1: it's two things have been true my entire life. People
Speaker 1: have said that soccer is gonna become the most popular
Speaker 1: sport in America. That's never happened. And they've also said
Speaker 1: that the big ones about to hit California, it's gonna
Speaker 1: fall off into the Pacific Ocean. And I know most people, uh,
Speaker 1: let's see east of the Mississippi and maybe even some
Speaker 1: west wish it would happen. Hasn't happened yet, No, not yet,
Speaker 1: not yet. All right, it's another state. Then let's go
Speaker 1: to Uh, what about New York, New York York. Now
Speaker 1: New York's like two states in one. All right. So,
Speaker 1: by the way, if you're just late to the podcast,
Speaker 1: that no one actually gets late to the podcast at
Speaker 1: this point, if you fast forward, so it's the weather Ranger.
Speaker 1: It's a new second is a study out that says
Speaker 1: leading cause of weather fatalities from eighteen all Right, New York.
Speaker 1: You've got southern New York and then the rest of
Speaker 1: the states. So in in like Manhattan, the leading cause
Speaker 1: of death is in the other boroughs of New York
Speaker 1: City is heat. Extreme heat. You know there's nasty August
Speaker 1: September days where it just gets brutal. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's just smells like death in New York, especially when
Speaker 1: you're walking down the streets of Manhattan and Brooklyn, because yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, temperatures are up. The humanities what's Well, the
Speaker 1: reason it smells like death is because they have to
Speaker 1: put their trash out every day in New York and
Speaker 1: the trash just cooks in in the heat. Well, they
Speaker 1: actually do that in the middle of the night. I
Speaker 1: remember earlier this year when I made a trip to
Speaker 1: New York City. I was walking home from a night
Speaker 1: on the town, and I think I got back at
Speaker 1: three or four o'clock in the morning, and I was
Speaker 1: in Lower Manhattan and before that's an unholy hour, guest,
Speaker 1: but that happens at that time in the morning. Who cares,
Speaker 1: it's New York. But to get into my hotel Ben,
Speaker 1: Honest to god, I had to go around bags of trash. No, no,
Speaker 1: I know, that's what I listen. I'm a night guy, obviously,
Speaker 1: and I when my brother lives in Manhattan and we
Speaker 1: go back there and I'm out problems In New York.
Speaker 1: Everyone says everything is open all night, the city that
Speaker 1: never sleeps. That's bullshit from was it Sinatra? That's something
Speaker 1: that's his bullshit? All right? No, it trusts me most
Speaker 1: of Manhattan at night. And I've I've lived the life
Speaker 1: where I was like, oh, it's three in the morning,
Speaker 1: let me go out and have a nice meal. And
Speaker 1: like pretty much every restaurant is closed. You can get
Speaker 1: the corner Delhi subway in that subway, but the mom
Speaker 1: and pop sandwich shops you can get like a turkey
Speaker 1: sandwich or something like that. But there's not an endless
Speaker 1: amount of food options, even in a place like New York.
Speaker 1: I remember me and my wife went on we were
Speaker 1: in Times Square and we were walking around like to
Speaker 1: one third in the morning, and we there's like one
Speaker 1: one or two places that was it that was opened anyway,
Speaker 1: so lower men like New York City heat, the rest
Speaker 1: of New York the leading cause of death weather related,
Speaker 1: got flash floods, which is really the center trull part.
Speaker 1: And then in in western and very upper New York,
Speaker 1: you've got like where albuddy, isn't that, You've got wind
Speaker 1: that wind related demises. So it's three different or four
Speaker 1: different things, not three different things. Yeah, I mean, that's
Speaker 1: that was my first thought with Hawaii because you mentioned
Speaker 1: the surf for the high surf tides, but also the
Speaker 1: volcano ash volcanoes erupting and if they if they do,
Speaker 1: you're blowing the the lava any kind of small sparks
Speaker 1: and flow that goes onto the houses and forests and whatnot.
Speaker 1: And that was my my first stop of wind. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's uh, that's right up there. What about give me
Speaker 1: like Alabama? Alabama? All right, let's go to Alabama. So
Speaker 1: the leading cause of people's demise in Alabama. There's two things.
Speaker 1: Actually there's there's a few more than two things. You
Speaker 1: gotta go down to the to the Gulf. Football, but
Speaker 1: you've got yeah, that's right, Auburn football. You've got the
Speaker 1: very top extreme heat. People dying because of the oppressive
Speaker 1: heat of the South, and you've got torn a does
Speaker 1: in the most of Alabama. You're you're leading cause of
Speaker 1: dying by weather is a tornado. Do you have any
Speaker 1: friends that are in that industry of chasing down tornadoes?
Speaker 1: Do not? I've seen those shows. I've I've seen the
Speaker 1: videos on YouTube and stuff, but I'm not would you do?
Speaker 1: You should do that? How much would you have to
Speaker 1: get paid to do that? They put you in like
Speaker 1: an armored car you drive around chasing the tornado. I
Speaker 1: got a buddy that does it, and he's actually from Chicago.
Speaker 1: He's making well over six figures. But so, yeah, we
Speaker 1: should do that. Guests, why not go move to Kansas
Speaker 1: or something like that, or moved to Arkansas yourself? Well,
Speaker 1: I'd rather stay here and and you know, slave away
Speaker 1: under a high microphone to cater to you really stealing material. Well, listen,
Speaker 1: if it's not a radio show, stupid podcast, if it's
Speaker 1: any if it's any kind of consolation for you. You
Speaker 1: typically have a track record of having producers that are
Speaker 1: somehow oft um. Well that was true up until Cooper Loop.
Speaker 1: Up It's Cooper Loop. I. I went through producers pretty
Speaker 1: much twice a year, there would be a different producer,
Speaker 1: but it's been remarkable. Cooper Loop has stuck around and
Speaker 1: he appears to be there for the long haul. That's
Speaker 1: not had the change. We've had the same crew. I
Speaker 1: know Danny got out of there, but we had Roberto
Speaker 1: has been there for a while now, and so we've
Speaker 1: had the same same group overnight consistency, which is odd
Speaker 1: to me. I'm not used to consistency. I don't. I don't.
Speaker 1: I don't do well with consistency. We'll get rid of
Speaker 1: you on this show at some point, well we might.
Speaker 1: I mean, you did accuse me of being the future
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck for this podcast, so I did say that.
Speaker 1: I I believe you will quit. I I believe you
Speaker 1: will get so frustrated. You will be so upset that
Speaker 1: they they're not gonna pay you or something like that,
Speaker 1: and you'll just be like, I'm out. See I can't
Speaker 1: get frustrated. Part of the reason for that is I
Speaker 1: feel like this podcast with us is like Rocky four,
Speaker 1: or I go into Russia and there's everybody on your
Speaker 1: militia that really hates my guts or can't stand me,
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, slowly but surely I start
Speaker 1: winning them over. I went over the crowd, and yeah,
Speaker 1: that's not happening like you and no, no, Then you
Speaker 1: picked there's only one, the Rocky two, right, that was
Speaker 1: the that was the movie Rocky Too. They didn't keep
Speaker 1: making good Rocky movies. They just kept making Rocky movies.
Speaker 1: They weren't good. But you picked Rocky four as a
Speaker 1: Rocky two was the top, that was superior to all
Speaker 1: the other Rocky movies. Well, no, Rocky four is probably
Speaker 1: the best. Then Rocky Too, then Rocky three, then the
Speaker 1: original Rocky and then after that it doesn't exist. I mean,
Speaker 1: you can't incorrect. You can't. You cannot have Rocky four
Speaker 1: is not being your number one, goes into a hostile environment,
Speaker 1: wins over, and he ends the Cold War. Yeah it
Speaker 1: was a movie. He didn't end the Cold for I
Speaker 1: understand that. Yeah, thanks for yeah, watching that, it's good. Yeah, alright,
Speaker 1: another state? Can we do? Can we move on? We
Speaker 1: do two more states and then we got more We
Speaker 1: get to do the whole thing on a damn a.
Speaker 1: It was a it was a bit. I mean, we're
Speaker 1: doing the weather Ranger and we're playing such grab bass here.
Speaker 1: We don't even get through the damn states. We'll have
Speaker 1: to bring it back next week. Get me Vermont and
Speaker 1: Rhode Island a combination right there? All right? Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: you picked very small northeast. Why would you pick those states? Don't?
Speaker 1: Why not? Because people don't talk about Rhode Island and Vermont.
Speaker 1: No one cares about those two states. Well Vermont, yeah,
Speaker 1: certain politicians. That gets uh the leading cause of your demise,
Speaker 1: and Vermont in the burn is wind wind related. That's
Speaker 1: all over like Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire and also Rhode
Speaker 1: Island as well. So that that whole win. And there's
Speaker 1: a little part where the flash floods will do you
Speaker 1: in You ever been in a flash flood? No? Never,
Speaker 1: And I mean we've been close here in southern California
Speaker 1: on a couple of different occasions. I lived in San
Speaker 1: Diego and we had them pretty bad in the middle
Speaker 1: mid two thousands, like two thousand five, two thousand six.
Speaker 1: But when you're stuck in the five freeway, you know
Speaker 1: this because you were down there for quite a bit.
Speaker 1: But when you're stuck down the five Freeway, you're s
Speaker 1: o l. You can't move anywhere because there's no other
Speaker 1: freeways or roads you can get off of once you're
Speaker 1: near Camp Peddleton. So there was flashford warnings, the flood
Speaker 1: warnings that came about the middle of the night. I mean,
Speaker 1: you're screwed. So you have to set that thing out
Speaker 1: and waited out. So probably the closest I've ever come. Yeah,
Speaker 1: San Diego. The traffic there is like with the eight
Speaker 1: and the oh that was a nightmare two back in
Speaker 1: the eight, the fifteen, and the five. Yeah, that's pretty
Speaker 1: much it. That's the big the big arteries there are.
Speaker 1: Are you done with this? The weather things? That's fine.
Speaker 1: You seem annoyed with Oh no, no, I mean just
Speaker 1: you picked your your pick of states was odd to me,
Speaker 1: like you should try to appeal to where the listeners.
Speaker 1: We have a lot of listeners in Florida mentioned Florida. Well,
Speaker 1: well we know what what Florida is. It's going to
Speaker 1: be hurricanes. No, not on the list. Very by Miami,
Speaker 1: like the southern part, like Key West Miami. That part
Speaker 1: they have hurricane. But the rest of the state. No,
Speaker 1: you got lightning and rip current. Rip current. Alright, imagine
Speaker 1: going down because you're out in the water and you
Speaker 1: get sucked out to to see and you meet your demise.
Speaker 1: Where are the majority of your listeners live Texas? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people in Texas. Flash flood, a
Speaker 1: lot of flash flood, a lot of heat. Missouri. Uh,
Speaker 1: you got cold winter weather up top Missouri, also flash flood,
Speaker 1: heat and just flooding in general. Washington, Washington State, you
Speaker 1: got avalanche and then flood and wind in the southern part,
Speaker 1: like right on the Oregon border. There. So all right,
Speaker 1: let's Alaska. Give me Alaska. Alright, Alaska. There's there's two things. Now,
Speaker 1: this is the only state that has this as a
Speaker 1: weather related cause of death. Is one thing, you've got
Speaker 1: most of the state's avalanche, you know, out looking at
Speaker 1: a polar bear and you're getting you know, knocked on
Speaker 1: your head. Uh. And then the other one is a
Speaker 1: brief flows. What is that? I don't even know what
Speaker 1: that is? What is that? I don't know? They classified
Speaker 1: as a debris flow. Do you have any listeners in Alaska? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we've had. We're on the radio and Anchorage and uh
Speaker 1: and some other places. So I've gotten calls from people
Speaker 1: in Alaska. And it's good because it's earlier in Alaska.
Speaker 1: I've gotten more calls from Hawaii over the years. In Alaska.
Speaker 1: But yeah, there's like my friend Jay who we should
Speaker 1: get on the Whizz of Odds gambling college football gambling guy.
Speaker 1: And he's in He's in Alaska like all the time,
Speaker 1: all right, he's he he loves that I did a
Speaker 1: rod race. In fact, he's there right now, and he
Speaker 1: sends me photos like he's out on the front and
Speaker 1: he'll send me these these photos of everyone freezing their
Speaker 1: ass off in the I did a rod race with
Speaker 1: all the dogs. All right, here's the fifth hour with
Speaker 1: Ben Maller and David Gas gone unfortunately, but time now
Speaker 1: for we're moving on. Let's go to food picks. You
Speaker 1: want food picks. Who doesn't like food? But this is
Speaker 1: inspired by Marcel Now. Restaurants are always trying to get
Speaker 1: you to come into the Star. Every business wants you
Speaker 1: to come to the store, trying new items to get
Speaker 1: our fat asses to go in there and open up
Speaker 1: our wallet. So we're gonna see if any of these
Speaker 1: items are worthy or I got a bunch of I
Speaker 1: won't go through all of them because it will take forever. Uh,
Speaker 1: these are new items, some of them will be permanent.
Speaker 1: Most of them were just test items or limited time
Speaker 1: options at restaurants. These are national chains they picked out
Speaker 1: because we've got to keep it on a national level.
Speaker 1: I've got Chipotle their their new item here. Recently they
Speaker 1: just added carne asada to their to their menu there,
Speaker 1: Kanye started a snake eight fifty per entree in or
Speaker 1: out on the newest item there. Yeah, I'll do it.
Speaker 1: You got try at least once, right, especially since you're
Speaker 1: we're here in southern California or allot the Mexican food.
Speaker 1: You love Carnisi when you came to an event at
Speaker 1: the Mallard Mansion, which for some reason my wife foolishly
Speaker 1: invited you to. Uh you did bring carne asada. I
Speaker 1: brought carney, I brought some boil. Uh yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: you didn't bring a lot. You're you're a big fan
Speaker 1: of the carnie. You were burning most of the other meats.
Speaker 1: I thought I would do something different. It's actually cooking
Speaker 1: it properly. Now you're doing your barbecuing it and you're
Speaker 1: making the meat just look charcoal black. And I came
Speaker 1: to the rescue. Spoiler alert, It's delicious. That's what be
Speaker 1: sure to catch. Live editions of The Ben Maller Show
Speaker 1: weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio app. Uh. Panera bread.
Speaker 1: This is Baja Grain Bowl and Mediterranean grain bowl. So
Speaker 1: they're going big on the grain. They've got long grain
Speaker 1: brown rice mixed with red and golden quinoa. Has always
Speaker 1: say how you said? Uh, grilled citrus pepper chicken. It's
Speaker 1: qu i n o A yea queen what? I never?
Speaker 1: What is that? It's like it's like rice. O, what
Speaker 1: is this rice? Because it's not rice, it's keen one. Now,
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm out on this. I'm not you know,
Speaker 1: Panera bread not my own, my spot. My wife likes it,
Speaker 1: but I'm out. I don't want the grain bowl. If
Speaker 1: I if I was a farm animal, I eat grain.
Speaker 1: I'm out too healthy for I don't want any part
Speaker 1: of that sounds disgusting. Uh. The veggie grill, Who the
Speaker 1: hell goes to the how did this end up on
Speaker 1: the list? The veggie girl they've got They got a
Speaker 1: fake cheese steak that you can get which is a
Speaker 1: plant based beyond Burger beef substitute. And then they have
Speaker 1: all the other traditional stuff that you put in a
Speaker 1: nice traditional Philly cheese steak thirteen fifty. Uh no, I mean, why,
Speaker 1: what's the point if you really want to eat a
Speaker 1: cheese steak, eat a cheese steak. If you're if you
Speaker 1: don't eat, eat a bunch of lettuce or something like that.
Speaker 1: You know, best cheese steak you've ever had Philadelphia obviously homemade?
Speaker 1: Uh come on, homemade? No no, no, no, no, let
Speaker 1: me tell you something. Alright, Me and my wife, we've
Speaker 1: figured this out. There's a costco not far from where
Speaker 1: we live, and they serve thin cut ribby the same
Speaker 1: kind that they make the restaurant quality cheese steak. And
Speaker 1: I have I have a grittle at the Mallard mansion
Speaker 1: and we might make it this you can guess gon
Speaker 1: I might be partaking. My wife brought that up the
Speaker 1: other day that we should have have some of this
Speaker 1: cheese steak because he can make it up. You put
Speaker 1: the onions out there, I cut up some peppers. I
Speaker 1: make a mean cheese day. You've not had one of
Speaker 1: my cheese steaks? Have you? Do I get an invite
Speaker 1: for this weekend's festivities? No, not at all. Well, I
Speaker 1: think we are actually I think there's an event that
Speaker 1: we might be taking part. I don't know if that's
Speaker 1: gonna make the show. Maybe we'll save that for next week.
Speaker 1: What else? We've got Checkers and rallies. You ever eating
Speaker 1: in the Checkers and rallies or whatever? You're Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just it's depends on where you are. They called the
Speaker 1: same thing. They've got a cheese loaded burger. This is
Speaker 1: like we're talking about the Juicy Lucy. It's a new item.
Speaker 1: Two seasoned beef patties with melted pepper jack cheese between them.
Speaker 1: It's only like two nine nine, which tells you it's
Speaker 1: probably not the highest quality. But they have that, and
Speaker 1: uh yeah, if I was Checkers a rally, I would
Speaker 1: go with it. Why not give a shot? Sounds like
Speaker 1: it's not that bad. A subway. This sounds like something
Speaker 1: that would be in my wheelhouse, not your a wheelhouse,
Speaker 1: but subway naturally. Pit smoked brisket sandwich sounds great, sounds wonderful. Right.
Speaker 1: They say briskets smoked for at least thirteen hours, not
Speaker 1: less than that, not twelve, not eleven, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: thirteen hours and top with smoked cheddar cheese, barbecue sauce
Speaker 1: on Italian bread. That sounds good as it's only available
Speaker 1: through November six. I used to be a big Subway
Speaker 1: guy before I got married. My wife does not like Subway.
Speaker 1: I don't go there anymore, but I used to go
Speaker 1: there all the time when I was living the bachelor
Speaker 1: lifestyle was in my rotation. Back when I was doing
Speaker 1: the eatings of trying to lose weight. I thought I
Speaker 1: was gonna be like Jared from Subway. I'd like to
Speaker 1: not be man. Don't go down that road. Uh. Jack
Speaker 1: in the Box one of the great light, late night
Speaker 1: foody run restaurants. Jack in the Box, you've got the
Speaker 1: really big chicken sandwich. Have you seen the billboards on
Speaker 1: this around in l A? Looks pretty? Three or four
Speaker 1: chick and breast patties on a bun. You got the mayo, onion, sauce,
Speaker 1: iceberg lettuce. Pass on that tomato, No thanks. Melted Swiss
Speaker 1: style cheese. I like how they say Swiss style, which
Speaker 1: means it's probably not cheese. Uh. Nine for a double,
Speaker 1: four for a triple and if you're going big five
Speaker 1: nine to clog not really your arteries, but just to
Speaker 1: clog the what's fried and you get to fries in
Speaker 1: a drink as well. Would you be happy ending a
Speaker 1: long three or four day fast with something like that? Yeah,
Speaker 1: probably not, But if I like, I don't. The only
Speaker 1: fast food I really eat is Raising Canes. That's that's
Speaker 1: been my my staple, the great chicken finger Shack, which
Speaker 1: I love. I don't think you've been the one. You
Speaker 1: will at some point. There's a Raising Canes opening here
Speaker 1: in the next month at the Mallard Mansion mansion, so
Speaker 1: you will have to go and then partake. But no,
Speaker 1: like Jack in the Box is one of those things.
Speaker 1: I used to have a Jack in the Box close
Speaker 1: when I lived in Lincoln Heights. It was a Jack
Speaker 1: in the Box real close to where I live, and
Speaker 1: so I would go there and that was, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of late night getting off the air, gett a
Speaker 1: bite to the the eat or something like that, and that
Speaker 1: in Tommy's. I love Tommy's, which is an l A thing.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's outside of l A. Maybe a
Speaker 1: couple of other places, but the chief chili cheeseburger Tommy's
Speaker 1: one in the morning man hits the spot for now
Speaker 1: for breakfast at Jack in the Box. What would you
Speaker 1: get back in the day, I would get the French
Speaker 1: toast that was my the French toast sticks at the
Speaker 1: at Jack in the Box, that would be my thing.
Speaker 1: All right, we're doing food picks in honor of marself.
Speaker 1: These are all items that are either temporary or now
Speaker 1: permanent new items at restaurants. I thought this would be
Speaker 1: something a little different. We have Taco Bell. They've got
Speaker 1: a couple of things that they've got, the black Bean
Speaker 1: crunch Rap Supreme. They changed their menu. Cooper Loop was
Speaker 1: very upset about this because they this is a vegetarian thing,
Speaker 1: this black bean crunch Rap. I'm convinced that you know,
Speaker 1: on radio, we have consultants and they have meetings all
Speaker 1: the time about what's good and what's batten rightio in
Speaker 1: the fast food industry, the last year, all of them
Speaker 1: have decided to go with the vegetarian right. I mean everyone,
Speaker 1: Carl's that that hard ease um, all of them. Uh
Speaker 1: go down the list, you're burger king. They've all got
Speaker 1: these vegetarian items and then they have the calorie listing
Speaker 1: as well. I know Chick fil A does that. A
Speaker 1: couple of other spots will have a listing per items,
Speaker 1: so you'll have the calorie intake right underneath them, Like
Speaker 1: that's the last thing you want to see, right, It's
Speaker 1: like it's like going on a date with a check
Speaker 1: and eventually you know you're gonna sleep with her. You
Speaker 1: don't want to know what the cout that she's on, right,
Speaker 1: Just hey, let's just knock this out. Do you know
Speaker 1: how it works? Man? Women go they go low, men
Speaker 1: go high. But it doesn't matter because then you get
Speaker 1: these fools. They'll order something that's twelve calories and then say, hey,
Speaker 1: I want to diet coke too. I don't know if
Speaker 1: this is analogy fits here, but as far as like
Speaker 1: being freaked out by the number, as you said, of
Speaker 1: the partners, the person you're with could have I the
Speaker 1: way I look all right. I think the analogy is
Speaker 1: if if there was a new plane that was a
Speaker 1: test plane, wouldn't you like someone else to test it
Speaker 1: to make sure that it works. Yeah, you don't want
Speaker 1: to get on the plane. You don't know if it's
Speaker 1: gonna land or not. Right, I mean it's you know,
Speaker 1: I mean it's a way to look at like driving
Speaker 1: a car. You can test drive that thing around the
Speaker 1: block a little bit. Wow, alright, I'm sure you've done
Speaker 1: a lot of test driving in your big study. You
Speaker 1: heard stories. My wife was telling me a story about
Speaker 1: you the other day which I did not know that
Speaker 1: was true, and I thought, no, that's not. She said
Speaker 1: something happened after one of the parties there that I no,
Speaker 1: I didn't happen. She convinced it happened. Uh Taco Bell,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you don't want to mention that. On the
Speaker 1: fifth Hour with Ben Mallard, guest got toasted cheddar chalupa
Speaker 1: that's seasoned beef or chicken, shredded lettuce, dice, tomatoes, grand
Speaker 1: grated cheddar, cheese, reduced fat, sour crimp, tortilla shell with
Speaker 1: six month aged cheddar baked on it. But it's only
Speaker 1: a test item in Charlotte. So if you're listening in Charlotte,
Speaker 1: you can get a toasted cheddar chalupa. Give a take.
Speaker 1: I'm I don't need it. Sounds awful, I'm not. Uh
Speaker 1: elpoil local, which is a local staple of southern California
Speaker 1: in the southwest. UH Mexican chain. And we right across
Speaker 1: the street from our studios, the Premier Networks i Heeart
Speaker 1: Media Building in in Sherman Oaks, California. There's an Elpoil
Speaker 1: Loco where Magic Johnson. I've seen Magic Johnson in there
Speaker 1: and some other celebrities that live up in the hills.
Speaker 1: They come down there and eat their Eloil local. Uh
Speaker 1: what do we have? We have chicken, taketos and guac.
Speaker 1: Three miniature tacos. Stuff was shredded ranchero chicken, guac, pico
Speaker 1: deguio cilantro and to all that and some chips in
Speaker 1: a drink for five bucks. I love the Takedo's. I'm
Speaker 1: big fan of the taketo. I've been an advocate for
Speaker 1: the takedo over the years. One of the great underrated
Speaker 1: dishes of our world is the takeito um. I used
Speaker 1: to get to Tito's a jack in the box. They
Speaker 1: used to have those. I don't think still do back
Speaker 1: and that I love them, But this is all Poil Loco.
Speaker 1: I'd be And I'm not a big guawk guy. I
Speaker 1: don't need the guawk. I don't I don't want to guawk.
Speaker 1: I'm okay with it. I don't hate it, but I
Speaker 1: don't go out on my way for it. It's overpriced.
Speaker 1: But I would, I would, I would be okay with it,
Speaker 1: the Tito think, and they alays have chicken nachos. I'm
Speaker 1: good with that. Chicken nacho, cheese, some cilantro some maybe
Speaker 1: some basil on it, some salts, We're good with that.
Speaker 1: No beans, though they put the pinto beans on there.
Speaker 1: I don't need that. I'm good moving on. I hoped
Speaker 1: they've got this promotion right now. These are new food items.
Speaker 1: It's food picks in honor of marcel I hop promotion
Speaker 1: with the Adams Family movie, which I guess is back
Speaker 1: doing it's thing here. Uh, They've got Wednesday's webcakes butter
Speaker 1: milk pancakes, top with cupcake icing and violet whipped topping
Speaker 1: and webbed with Hershey's chocolate sirrup. It's a nine step
Speaker 1: If that sounds like it's for kids, doesn't it does?
Speaker 1: I don't think that's what going And this is also
Speaker 1: for kids. Uncle Fester's Chocolate ice cream Shake, Hershey's Chocolate
Speaker 1: ice cream Shake with violet whipped topping. Six fifty six
Speaker 1: fifty for a shake, man better. Yeah, I have not
Speaker 1: had a shaken in a while. I'm not against the shake,
Speaker 1: but it is a high calorie item. If you're worried
Speaker 1: about your fine girlish figure. It's it's a problem, KFC.
Speaker 1: Let's go to KFC. This is a big one. This
Speaker 1: made the rounds up. You might have heard about this week.
Speaker 1: Chicken and doughnuts. Chicken and doughnuts at the KFC, which
Speaker 1: is which is just great. Now that's fried chicken served
Speaker 1: a nice, delicious thick breastpiece of the fried chicken fried up,
Speaker 1: perfectly served with a glazed donut, either on a sandwich
Speaker 1: with extra crispy breasted chicken and two no nuts that's
Speaker 1: five ninety nine, or as a meal with chicken on
Speaker 1: the bone or chicken tenders with one donut for five
Speaker 1: forty nine. The donuts are also available on their Owny're
Speaker 1: charging a dollar at o nut at KFC, so they're
Speaker 1: getting into the donut business. It's only available though in Norfolk, Virginia, Richmond, Virginia,
Speaker 1: in Pittsburgh. That's it. They're testing it in those markets.
Speaker 1: That's great because I mean you you actually advised me
Speaker 1: have moved out to that area many moods ago, somber.
Speaker 1: It could be on the horizon for me. That'll be
Speaker 1: in a future edition of the fifth Hour Career Advice.
Speaker 1: Career Advice go work a full time job for Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think the line, which I believe is true, is
Speaker 1: that it's all for the story, right, He's all for
Speaker 1: the lifes, all for the story. I mean, think of
Speaker 1: the story you would have that if you did local
Speaker 1: television in what city was it? It was in West Virginia, Right,
Speaker 1: it's just like something blue. I forget what it was,
Speaker 1: blew something West Virginia. Yeah, like an old sleepy town
Speaker 1: which probably the economy went in the toilet because of
Speaker 1: the industries, you know, leaving and all that and anyway, Uh,
Speaker 1: this can see thing. I would go with it. I
Speaker 1: think it's wonderful. Includes it sounds disgusting for a lot
Speaker 1: of people, but it's got the main ingredients that you
Speaker 1: need for for food, sugar, fat, and salt. Like anybody
Speaker 1: that does cooking, anybody that studied the culinary arts like
Speaker 1: me Gasco and I, I know that the three most
Speaker 1: important food groups are salt, sugar, and fat. Right, You've
Speaker 1: got it. No, seriously, all food that we human beings
Speaker 1: like is de leave you conbind proper amounts of sugar, fat,
Speaker 1: and salt. It's wonderful. This has the fat from the
Speaker 1: and the salt from the chicken and the sugar from
Speaker 1: the from the doughnuts. So it's I'm sure it's it's wonderful.
Speaker 1: I'd have to eat that when I was a toxic kid.
Speaker 1: I usually get the munches anyway. So well, that's that's
Speaker 1: any day that ends in a y. So you know,
Speaker 1: I'm not a frequent drinker, but if it's a Friday
Speaker 1: or Saturday night, you like those magic mushrooms, I'm not
Speaker 1: like the red of your like you're like, no, You're like,
Speaker 1: what's the podcast guy that we're trying to take down here, Joe? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the ayahuasca. Ayahuasca, Yeah, you gotta you actually have to
Speaker 1: have a chaperone to uh to take any of that.
Speaker 1: Have you had the iawaha? No, no, you you can
Speaker 1: actually only get it in parts. I think it was
Speaker 1: at South America. Yeah. Do you think like Joe Rogan
Speaker 1: and these other Hollywood types like have access in the
Speaker 1: Hollywood Hills they're doing ayahuasca and those things. We should
Speaker 1: find that out. We should go explore. You recommended to
Speaker 1: one of our our colleagues, Steve to Sager, to take
Speaker 1: some tours around the Los Angeles air to see historic places.
Speaker 1: We should do that we should get into the Mallard batmobile,
Speaker 1: that little tin can and start driving up the Hollywood
Speaker 1: Hills looking for ayahuasca. Yeah, okay, we could do Why
Speaker 1: don't you do that and get me you can report back,
Speaker 1: Giant Betton Mallard looking for Ayawaska the Hollywood Hills seven
Speaker 1: feet tall were in board shirts in the middle of
Speaker 1: the night because like a like a YouTube video that
Speaker 1: you could put out there that would be a big hit.
Speaker 1: All right, moving a last food story, and we gotta
Speaker 1: get the ship sailing here again. The ships hit some
Speaker 1: some icebergs. Pizza Hut stuffed cheese it pizza. These are
Speaker 1: baked squares the cheese at squares with either cheese or
Speaker 1: pepperoni and cheese, served with a side of Maranera sauce
Speaker 1: sixty nine. This sounds really good to me. I'm not,
Speaker 1: I haven't. My grandpa, may he rest in peace, used
Speaker 1: to love the Pizza Hut. I used to go there
Speaker 1: all the time when as a kid because he for
Speaker 1: some reason, I mean not did not have the greatest
Speaker 1: taste and pies, but he loved the Pizza Hut. And uh,
Speaker 1: but I used to go there all the time. I've
Speaker 1: been there in years, but I'd be down with this.
Speaker 1: I like cheese. It's I like pizza like you know,
Speaker 1: a little cheese and the cheese. It's sounds good to me.
Speaker 1: Marianera dipping in there. You you sent me this earlier
Speaker 1: in the week, and I was a big fan of
Speaker 1: this one. I thought, this is probably the best one
Speaker 1: that we've had on the menu so far tonight, and
Speaker 1: it's the last one, so we saved the best for last.
Speaker 1: You see that works? All right? Study this now, we'll
Speaker 1: do a couple of these. I got a bunch of these,
Speaker 1: will just react. These are actual studies I found because
Speaker 1: I I One of my my sick twisted things that
Speaker 1: I like here is I like to see these studies.
Speaker 1: Even though most of them are quote your nickname bullshit.
Speaker 1: A lot of them are just you know, because you
Speaker 1: you you have. The way these studies are done. I
Speaker 1: think a lot of them even though I I for
Speaker 1: some reason I pay attention to them is that you
Speaker 1: have a predetermined idea of the outcome, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, And so it's predetermined, and so these are
Speaker 1: often predictable. It depends on who paid for the study
Speaker 1: and who bankrolled the study and all that stuff, so
Speaker 1: you can usually using conventional wisdom, you can kind of
Speaker 1: figure out where it's going. But yet I still read them,
Speaker 1: and certain percentage of them I do not think are
Speaker 1: predominantly bullshit. But anyway, here's a new study that shows
Speaker 1: nearly one third of people don't wash their gym clothes
Speaker 1: in between workouts. The worst offenders here, according to the study,
Speaker 1: is people who go to the gym every day. Now,
Speaker 1: I go to the gym every day, but Gascon, You'll
Speaker 1: be happy to know I'm a sweater, all right, I
Speaker 1: M that's one of the great things. I don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of good stuff in my DNA. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of terrible illnesses that I will likely get as
Speaker 1: I age here because my family has that stuff, and
Speaker 1: I'll meet an untimely demise because of one of those
Speaker 1: things in my DNA. But the one thing I love
Speaker 1: about my my DNA, my my family roots is that
Speaker 1: I am a huge sweater, and I feel like I
Speaker 1: accomplish a lot more than I probably do when I'm
Speaker 1: on the treadmill at the gym, because I sweat. Are
Speaker 1: you and I are you a bed sweater and in
Speaker 1: a food sweater too? No, No, no, it's gotta be
Speaker 1: I gotta work up to a sweat. But I when
Speaker 1: I'm on the treadmill, I wear because this is this
Speaker 1: is the one thing I do where I my vanity.
Speaker 1: I want to show off how hard I'm working out.
Speaker 1: Because if you wear like a black shirt or a
Speaker 1: dark colored shirt at the gym, it doesn't show the sweat, right,
Speaker 1: So I wear gray. I wear the you know that
Speaker 1: that light gray because that shows all the sweat lines.
Speaker 1: But I but I have my wife very good. She
Speaker 1: has uh She's purchased like like three or four sets
Speaker 1: of gym clothes, so I rotate them. But I yeah,
Speaker 1: I washed you. What about you? You sound like a
Speaker 1: guy that would not wash you stuff. I'm a frequent
Speaker 1: visitor of the gym, like yourself. But I gotta wash
Speaker 1: my clothes every single day. I mean there's days that
Speaker 1: i'll work out. My clothes actually smell like ammonia, which
Speaker 1: is really weird. I don't know why, but I want
Speaker 1: to check your with your doctor. There might but I
Speaker 1: don't wear I'll wear shorts leggings underneath it to contain
Speaker 1: my sweat because I'm like you, I sweat like a bastard.
Speaker 1: Just all over the place or just you say, I'm
Speaker 1: just a bastard. Yeah, not that true. I'll wear sleeves.
Speaker 1: I'll wear long sleeve shirts because the same things sweating,
Speaker 1: I can't. I don't like sweating all over like a
Speaker 1: treadmill or stair master or like I know you don't
Speaker 1: go to that area, but like the freeweight facility and
Speaker 1: the machines like wait for occasionally I will dabble with
Speaker 1: the weights, but I I mean do extreme weight loss stills.
Speaker 1: So I'm doing this the cardio to burn. I know
Speaker 1: you you lift wait burn Luney used to kemplaining to
Speaker 1: me al you lift what you lunium meathead would say,
Speaker 1: if you lift weights, you burn the calories all day long.
Speaker 1: And hey, actually just do both. You do both to
Speaker 1: increase the metabolism and you lose weight in a faster
Speaker 1: amount of time. My time's valuable, guest, Yeah, I know.
Speaker 1: That's why you want to do it in a truncated
Speaker 1: amount of time as opposed to treadmill. For forty study
Speaker 1: this study. This bird populations in the United States and
Speaker 1: Canada have dropped by twenty nine percent since nineteen seventy.
Speaker 1: They say two point nine billion birds have been lost
Speaker 1: in almost fifty years, according to this new study. I
Speaker 1: think this is bullshit. How do you account birds? All right?
Speaker 1: How the hell does one count birds? And how does
Speaker 1: one determine two point nine billion and not five billion
Speaker 1: or one billion or one hundred. It's bullshit. I don't believe.
Speaker 1: I'm calling bs on that too. All right, here's one,
Speaker 1: uh safe to sent. A third of Americans believe this
Speaker 1: is a good guest. This is I love the these
Speaker 1: studies that determine this apidity of humanity because it makes
Speaker 1: me feel better about myself. But be sure to catch
Speaker 1: live editions of the Ben Maller Show week days at
Speaker 1: two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. One third of Americans
Speaker 1: believe they can get an STD from sitting on a toilet.
Speaker 1: From sitting on a toilet, well, you know, there's there's
Speaker 1: certain states right now in our Republic, namely where we're
Speaker 1: at in California. We we've had hepatitis outbreaks just walking
Speaker 1: down the streets. Actually came from Mexico to San Diego.
Speaker 1: Now it's here in Los Angeles, they had threats of
Speaker 1: the bubonic plague. Oh so I like the fact that
Speaker 1: as people aren't getting uh what's the word I'm looking for.
Speaker 1: They're getting their shots to get certain things that have
Speaker 1: been eradicated. These things are coming back. Vaccines, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I have a love hate relationship with medicine,
Speaker 1: you know, and I think most of us do. His dudes.
Speaker 1: But uh, the things that they've come up with, the
Speaker 1: antidotes and things to prevent the bubonic not play, but
Speaker 1: some of these these long term illnesses that and then
Speaker 1: people are turning their back on. It just doesn't make
Speaker 1: sense to me. It's just so stupid. But if I
Speaker 1: grew up, if you gotta go, you gotta go. But
Speaker 1: if you're in a club or a bar, a restaurant,
Speaker 1: or are you going to are you going number two
Speaker 1: in the restaurant? Yeah, this is where men have a
Speaker 1: competitive advantage to women that we have the option. I
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it too. I do a one. I wouldn't
Speaker 1: have a number of problem with the number number one.
Speaker 1: But they say the survey response wrongly think that they
Speaker 1: could contact an STD through physical contact, erroneously believe they
Speaker 1: could become infected from sharing a glass of water with
Speaker 1: someone diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease. Well, if you
Speaker 1: got if you got mono, you can get that way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: one had mono a couple of years ago. You're better though, right, Yeah? Recovered? Yeah,
Speaker 1: fully operational. Thanks to your six respondents were able to
Speaker 1: correctly identify GNA rhea as a common STD, less than
Speaker 1: half named herpes and only could remember flamdia. So there
Speaker 1: you go, man, what's your favorite STD? What do you
Speaker 1: um favorite STD? Favorite way to die? I don't know,
Speaker 1: give me the name of the podcast that man, questions
Speaker 1: you never thought would be asked in a relaxed environment
Speaker 1: on a podcast, on this dope podcast. Yeah, that's something
Speaker 1: we could ask your Rogan. How about that? WHOA all right?
Speaker 1: Oh answer, I'm not afraid like you. I'm not a coward.
Speaker 1: I think my favorite one when I was a kid
Speaker 1: that used to get talked about lot in school, well
Speaker 1: HIV but also her pies, you know, because it's you
Speaker 1: have a the rest of your life and the kids
Speaker 1: would be vicious about that and all that. But I
Speaker 1: think Dr Drew said something like I think it was
Speaker 1: fifteen years I said, like most people in their twenties
Speaker 1: at that time had herpes and they didn't even know
Speaker 1: they had herpes. Some some ridiculous things like that so common. Anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, what do we have? Let's see moving on
Speaker 1: it's study this. We'll do a couple more of these things. Uh,
Speaker 1: you care about this study? Ten thousand hours study reveals
Speaker 1: five keys to being elite in your field? Does that
Speaker 1: interest you at all? No, it's all about connections or
Speaker 1: I guess here in l A what kind of plastic
Speaker 1: surgery you got? All right, we'll skip over that. Uh
Speaker 1: here's one. Listening to music disturbs creativity, according to a
Speaker 1: new study. Does that do anything for you? I mean,
Speaker 1: do you listen to Do you listen to music when
Speaker 1: you prep for your shows? Uh? No, I don't. I
Speaker 1: usually I have to have laser like folks, I have
Speaker 1: in the past dabbled with. This is gonna sound elitist
Speaker 1: and snobbish, but I have done like mo start and
Speaker 1: some classical music. What's on that? Well, nothing's wrong with it,
Speaker 1: But I sounded like, Uh, I feel like people listen
Speaker 1: to classical music or schmucks and the intellectuals and all
Speaker 1: those people that think they're better than everyone's. But I
Speaker 1: but it does, it does help. I I like some
Speaker 1: of the old Beethoven stuff. Modestart. I like the sound
Speaker 1: of the it's it's good in the background. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: just kind of tones you down a little bit, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's plus it it makes like your life's a movie
Speaker 1: when you hear classical music, like the background music, and
Speaker 1: a lot of movies they put some classical stuff. What
Speaker 1: else do we have? Uh for lunch? Pancakes for lunch?
Speaker 1: Most Americans feel second breakfast should be an official meals
Speaker 1: breakfast to brunch or just breakfast breakfast. Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm not a big lover of the breakfast. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't mind the breakfast foods, but I don't like
Speaker 1: to eat when I wake up. Usually. My wife, though,
Speaker 1: is she's all about that. I mean, she loves breakfast.
Speaker 1: If she could only eat breakfast, like pancakes and things
Speaker 1: like that all day, that's all she would eat breakfast.
Speaker 1: Where's the hierarchy though, Like do you go waffles to pancakes,
Speaker 1: to French toast or do you go French toast and
Speaker 1: then work your way down? Yeah? But my breakfast stuff,
Speaker 1: I I would pancakes, a stack of pancakes with syrup.
Speaker 1: Traditional breakfast, uh, maple surface the way to go. I'd
Speaker 1: go with that the waffle. Not a big egg guy,
Speaker 1: but a nice omelet, like a cheese omelet would be
Speaker 1: pretty good. Not cereal, I'm over that. But yeah, mostly
Speaker 1: pancakes and the waffles and the hash browns, chicken friend
Speaker 1: steak and eggs. Yeah not not No, that's to me.
Speaker 1: That's more of like a lunch thing or a dinner thing.
Speaker 1: What about what's your I'm French toast all the way,
Speaker 1: French toast. I mean, give carves, baby, and give me
Speaker 1: French toast. Waffles, pancakes, omelets are great, of course, No, no,
Speaker 1: they're great. Great breakfast brutos here in Los Angeles are
Speaker 1: fantastic from any kind of local shop. Yeah, the wife
Speaker 1: likes the breakfast burritos too. Not my thing. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I'm a big I'm more of a fan of
Speaker 1: your wife than I am of you. Like I'm noticing
Speaker 1: a podcast with her. She's probably a lot more entertaining
Speaker 1: and engaging. But no, we gotta, you know, gotta give
Speaker 1: the people what they want. As you would say, Fox

Speaker 1: We were setting up the studio and you were like,
Speaker 1: I was one minute, I was one minute behind where
Speaker 1: I was supposed to be and you are panicking. Well,
Speaker 1: it's like the buildings on fire. It's a five alarm
Speaker 1: fire and you're freaking out. One of us has a
Speaker 1: scared droll that doesn't allow for much movement. The other
Speaker 1: one has ability to freelance for another eighteen hours in
Speaker 1: the night. Don't forget you're the guy that actually made
Speaker 1: me fly down from northern California get here at an
Speaker 1: appropriate time, so you're not getting an appropriate time. You
Speaker 1: messed up my schedule, you smuck. Moving on, new study
Speaker 1: shows thirty of dogs who belonged to obese owners were overweight,
Speaker 1: fat shaming twice, fat shaming the dog and fat shaming
Speaker 1: the fat people that have the They say that the
Speaker 1: researchers said that overweight dog owners were more likely to
Speaker 1: give the fatty disgusting sugary foods that they eat to
Speaker 1: share with their dog, and thus the dog, as a
Speaker 1: trickle down effect, becomes obese. Do you do you have
Speaker 1: a dog? I do I have Bella. Thanks for listening
Speaker 1: to the show. I appreciate that we talked about Bella
Speaker 1: quite the bit. Bella is a great She's a lap dog,
Speaker 1: which I was against for so many years as a
Speaker 1: as a masculine, heterosexual male, I was against lap dogs.
Speaker 1: But but I love Bella. Bella is great. I I
Speaker 1: the ship suit is the way to go. Man, it's
Speaker 1: the sh it's it's it's wonderful. What do you what
Speaker 1: do you feed Bella? I love Bella because Bella doesn't
Speaker 1: bark um. You know, you know she didn't. She didn't
Speaker 1: bark that much unless she's outside, which is good. I
Speaker 1: got that dog before that would bark all the time
Speaker 1: when circles around, barking, and I was like trying to
Speaker 1: sleep or I'm trying to focus on something here. The
Speaker 1: damn dog markets a nightmare. But the Bella is very mellow,
Speaker 1: very calm and and all that. So what do you
Speaker 1: feed her dog food? She's a dog if you dog,
Speaker 1: but I'll throw like I have leftovers. The ad will
Speaker 1: throw the plate down. Have a field day with that,
Speaker 1: and then I'll nuke the plate get the germs off it. Uh. So,
Speaker 1: here's a study out that says a cure for the
Speaker 1: common cold it's possible, scientists say, after new study finds
Speaker 1: key protein. Of course, what's the weasel part of that statement? Guests,
Speaker 1: let's see if you know your weasel words? All right,
Speaker 1: I can repeat it one more time. All right, A
Speaker 1: cure for the common cold, it's possible, scientists say after
Speaker 1: new study finds key protein possible. Yeah, clearly, I mean
Speaker 1: that's bullshit. It's also possible that it's not gonna lead
Speaker 1: to a cure for protect you how many studies I've
Speaker 1: seen to say, oh, the end of cancer is near.
Speaker 1: You know, of course, cancers like two hundred different diseases.
Speaker 1: It's just not one disease. There's just it's all under
Speaker 1: the cancer umbrella. But there's a million different forms of cancer. Uh. Anyway,
Speaker 1: all right, that's I think I think we're good on that, right,
Speaker 1: I think we're good. So we're done. All right, we'll
Speaker 1: move on from that. It is the Fifth Hour with
Speaker 1: Ben Maller and David Guest on the gag on You
Speaker 1: Love Him as Twitter account, gag on there on social media,
Speaker 1: very popular. Uh, and it's in the bag. All right,
Speaker 1: we'll we'll go through as many of this as you can.
Speaker 1: We'll we'll do rapid fire machine gun Kelly mob style. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's in the bag. And these are listener emails. These
Speaker 1: are emails sent in by listeners like yourself. And actually
Speaker 1: these were posted on social media. Big shout out to
Speaker 1: the Mallard militia men and women on Facebook who really
Speaker 1: set most of these in. Usually I use Twitter, the
Speaker 1: Twitter machine for a lot of this stuff, but the Facebook.
Speaker 1: I feel like I get better questions on Facebook. I
Speaker 1: gotta spend more time on that Facebook anyway. This comes
Speaker 1: from Kay James Jeffrey, who I believe is in Sequoia, California,
Speaker 1: though I don't hold me to that, And he asked,
Speaker 1: are most of your listeners in mental health facilities or
Speaker 1: mental health patients? All right, Jeffrey, guess which finger I'm
Speaker 1: holding up, you schmuck uh no number. So here's the
Speaker 1: thing about that there. I will admit that generally speaking,
Speaker 1: there is a high percentage of my regular callers that
Speaker 1: have dabbled in, uh some mental health issues. But but
Speaker 1: I'm I'm okay. I treat everyone kind of the same.
Speaker 1: Not it's some people like goof on and all that.
Speaker 1: I think we're all like that. But the people that
Speaker 1: call the show are their characters on the show. They're
Speaker 1: part of the show. They're uh if they become regulars
Speaker 1: and all that stuff, and uh, the way I look
Speaker 1: at it, if you're calling an overnight radio show, almost
Speaker 1: always there's something kind of goofed up in your life,
Speaker 1: whether you've got a crappy schedule, you have insomnia, or
Speaker 1: you you did some drugs you shouldn't have done. Like,
Speaker 1: I think most people who listen have something a little.
Speaker 1: I think we're all strange, you know. It's like that
Speaker 1: old Door's song, Everyone's strange and all that stuff. Like
Speaker 1: I think that to be true. So anyway, that's my
Speaker 1: my position. But as far as the actual percentage, if
Speaker 1: I would do the Mallard math on that, you know,
Speaker 1: people are strange, people are strange. When you're a stranger,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go, you got some really smart people that
Speaker 1: call on your show too, though, I'll say that much
Speaker 1: that follow you, I mean they're undercover. They tweet or
Speaker 1: email you every so often. There, oh yeah, you want
Speaker 1: to name anybody that's under No, no, you told me
Speaker 1: not to. It's your it's your your, your pocket of quality.
Speaker 1: You've got a big fan here. I I know she's
Speaker 1: a big fan of yours that loves you. Clearly hasn't
Speaker 1: met you, or she wouldn't love you. I don't discrew that.
Speaker 1: Wow leave from Phoenix writes in. He says, Ben, since
Speaker 1: you do not shout out on your regular radio show,
Speaker 1: can you can I get a shout out on the
Speaker 1: fifth hour? No, no, no, no. This is not a
Speaker 1: mainstream of a podcast. It's not. I mean, we're a renegade.
Speaker 1: It's like a pirate radio stations. What we're doing pirate
Speaker 1: podcast and that's Joe Rogan and people like that do
Speaker 1: shout outs on the mainstream podcast. But we're not. So Lee,
Speaker 1: I am not going to give you a shout out.
Speaker 1: I'm not going to do it, Lee at all. I
Speaker 1: know you love your Arizona Cardinals. We should give him
Speaker 1: some some special homework assignment next time he goes to
Speaker 1: a Cardinals game. Spell check your damn poster. How about that?
Speaker 1: If you're gonna try to bash Keyler Murray and send
Speaker 1: a tweet into Ben Maller, how about you grab the
Speaker 1: poster and spell check your damn print. All right, listen
Speaker 1: you dingle Berry. I want you to know what's such
Speaker 1: a Mama Luke that that guy Lee and Phoenix more
Speaker 1: to promote my career than you have or in many
Speaker 1: ways the company I work for, they don't pick the
Speaker 1: billboards up and all that from my show. That was
Speaker 1: a walking human billboard. That was the equivalent of guy
Speaker 1: outside a restaurant wearing sandwich board saying you know so
Speaker 1: and so advertisement That's what Lee did. I lovely Lee's.
Speaker 1: Lee's in my inner circle for years because of that.
Speaker 1: I was wonderful. I love that he to guy do that.
Speaker 1: I've had a few people do that over the years,
Speaker 1: bring signs to games and stuff, and it's always getting
Speaker 1: kicked out of hilarious. You have you have the dog
Speaker 1: in Colorado right well, Parker the snow dog who's we
Speaker 1: love Parker. Parker's like the unofficial mascout of the Broncos.
Speaker 1: He's got a von Miller jersey and all that I
Speaker 1: believe in. Parker's great And Parker was at the Broncos
Speaker 1: Bears game this past weekend in Chicago or in Denver
Speaker 1: rather and one of the security guards came up to
Speaker 1: the Parkers, the Parker's keeper, and said that the fan
Speaker 1: of the show new Parker from our show. So did
Speaker 1: you tell the audience about your new publicists, Ben Maller
Speaker 1: or Brian for the Ben Maller Show, And oh yeah,
Speaker 1: yeah you got you got fans that are wearing billboards
Speaker 1: and now you've got a a Fox Sports radio colleague
Speaker 1: as your your formal publicist. Listen, I know everyone's upset here.
Speaker 1: You're jealous of the this story that Brian knows a
Speaker 1: great writer. I mean, this guy should win a Pulitzer Prize. Okay,
Speaker 1: you understand this guy is an amazing He's like Shakespeare.
Speaker 1: He's a Mark Twain, he's Stephen King, He's Dr Seuss,
Speaker 1: He's Edward Edgar Allan Paul Who, Oscar Wilde, he's all
Speaker 1: the Ernest Hemingway, Charles Dickens. He's the pop laureate of
Speaker 1: radio trade website. Yeah so so one of the radio
Speaker 1: twit trade webs If you're on social media, tweet you know,
Speaker 1: not that I want to promote myself, but I tweeted
Speaker 1: this out all over the center, out on Facebook and stuff,
Speaker 1: and yeah, they were. Brian works for a radio trade
Speaker 1: industry website and he wrote an interview with me and
Speaker 1: it was you know, it was cool. I thought it
Speaker 1: was neat. It was usually I don't read those things.
Speaker 1: I hate those things. I don't like to hear myself
Speaker 1: on the radio. I don't like to read stories about me.
Speaker 1: Not that many people write stories about me. But I
Speaker 1: thought that came out no better than I anticipate. I
Speaker 1: always expect the worst, so it came out pretty good.
Speaker 1: He thought that way about this podcast, and we continue
Speaker 1: to hit good numbers. Now we doubled the podcast, will
Speaker 1: we double them again? Look at my goal for this
Speaker 1: podcast is to get us to six figures by the
Speaker 1: end of October, and I think we'll do it. Well,
Speaker 1: Well we got I did see that my guy in
Speaker 1: in Medford. Uh, he was in San Francisco and was
Speaker 1: it Mark from Medford? I think that's his name, apologize
Speaker 1: if it's not, but he he was in San Francisco. Anyways,
Speaker 1: his kid he got his car broken into. He told
Speaker 1: the whole store in the radio earlier this week, and
Speaker 1: he he he did what I I said. I've I've
Speaker 1: I've kiddered around for like the last year, saying, if
Speaker 1: you really want to help the show out, uh, you
Speaker 1: know have if you kids have smartphones, subscribe to the podcast.
Speaker 1: Your wife, you know, subscribe to the podcast. It doesn't
Speaker 1: and they don't actually have to present and be regular listeners.
Speaker 1: But it helps us out because we they look at
Speaker 1: how many subscribers we have, and that's a big thing
Speaker 1: to continue the podcast. Otherwise we'll get rid of the
Speaker 1: podcast if no one's actually subsgrimming. So it's it's an
Speaker 1: easy way to bump up our numbers. And if everyone listening,
Speaker 1: if you listening right now, added one person to the podcast,
Speaker 1: we would end up doubling our audience every week. Right,
Speaker 1: If if everyone did that, it's I think that's an
Speaker 1: all Ponzi scheme for podcasting. I think, right well, I
Speaker 1: mean we gotta get paid in order to make it
Speaker 1: a Ponzi scheme. Man, that's a good point. We're not
Speaker 1: getting paid. Gail listener Gail from Covina, California, right since,
Speaker 1: she says, my husband was telling me about our five
Speaker 1: he worked too many hours. Gail says, that's eighty miles
Speaker 1: one way. What a nightmare. Uh, and so he is
Speaker 1: too tired to ask questions, but on his behalf, Gail says,
Speaker 1: that's a good What a good wife Gail is? How
Speaker 1: great is that she's looking out for her husband anyway, Gail,
Speaker 1: she asked the question on behalf of her husband. Why
Speaker 1: does our five have an excructionary? Large number of commercials?
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to gascon gascon? Why are there
Speaker 1: so many commercials in this podcast? To give a count,
Speaker 1: and if isial account, there's five total. There's one at
Speaker 1: the beginning, one at the end which people don't listen
Speaker 1: to can throw it closed out, and then three in
Speaker 1: the middle which are embedded in. The reason why is
Speaker 1: because we have so much content throughout the vast i
Speaker 1: Heart Media podcasting network that the sales team has assigned
Speaker 1: those advertisers to certain podcasts on the network and they
Speaker 1: have now carried over onto ours. But we obviously would
Speaker 1: like to generate our own establishment of advertisers and sponsors.
Speaker 1: So that's why when you give out the email at
Speaker 1: the end of the podcast, they can come our way
Speaker 1: and we can change some of those things. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: would love it. Man. If you if you're in business,
Speaker 1: if you're big muckety muck and executive and believe it
Speaker 1: or not, guest On, some of these people actually listen
Speaker 1: to the show. Yeah, that's all right, I would I
Speaker 1: would love to advertiser product. And you know, if you
Speaker 1: like what we do with the sleep number beds on
Speaker 1: the Overnight Show, we can do that kind of stuff
Speaker 1: on the podcast. One thing I am not afraid of,
Speaker 1: guest On, is going long on commercials. I am not
Speaker 1: opposed to that at all. You told us you will
Speaker 1: endorse the gay magazine if you get paid for it.
Speaker 1: So as I learned early on, guessing you haven't learned
Speaker 1: this yet. We in radio, we're really in the advertising
Speaker 1: business because without the advertising, it's public radio. And then
Speaker 1: we're screwed. Uh. A J from Oxford, Michigan rights and
Speaker 1: he says, what the hell happened to Randy and Norman?
Speaker 1: One of my callers back in the day, Rookie of
Speaker 1: the Year to missing in Action? Ben. I feel like
Speaker 1: this is one of the great unspoken mysteries of the show.
Speaker 1: Was the shots potentially involved in the disappearance of Randy
Speaker 1: in Norman, Oklahoma? The Militia demands answers also Tie or
Speaker 1: t Y from Santa Cruz's Who's Your Favorite caller of
Speaker 1: all time. He says, his is Randy. So two emails
Speaker 1: are two questions about Randy and Norman. Uh. And to
Speaker 1: answer the question, all I will tell you is what
Speaker 1: I know a J. I believe that Randy was abducted
Speaker 1: by aliens. Um no. I He got upset because of
Speaker 1: a commercial that I was voicing for True Car, which
Speaker 1: said the word bounce here. And he was so triggered.
Speaker 1: You talk about the neurosis of people. I love Randy.
Speaker 1: I wish Randy would call again. I I'm upset that
Speaker 1: we lost Randy as a caller. I if anybody knows Randy,
Speaker 1: if Randy, if you're listening callers again. But Randy got
Speaker 1: so upset that I used the word bouncy here, he
Speaker 1: stopped calling the show. He that was the trigger for him.
Speaker 1: And who does that? Because I, by the way, here's
Speaker 1: a spoiler alert on this one. I don't write the
Speaker 1: copy on those commercials I am given by the sales
Speaker 1: department in Fox. The commercials with the most of them
Speaker 1: have talking points. But that was a commercial that I
Speaker 1: had to read verbatim. I read it. I'm a trained seal.
Speaker 1: They put something in front of me. I'm gonna read
Speaker 1: it and so, you know, you guy quit the show
Speaker 1: because of that. But Randy's Randy was great and means
Speaker 1: so he had this this hokey delivery. We use a
Speaker 1: lot of Randy drops as well. He was he was
Speaker 1: pretty good. All right, we're doing it's in the bag.
Speaker 1: We're gonna pick up the pace here because the fifth
Speaker 1: hour is going to turn into the sixth hour as well. Um,
Speaker 1: let's see here, let's get over one of these. Uh,
Speaker 1: here's one from Bob. Would you and the crew ever
Speaker 1: do remotes like at colleges? Yes, I would love to.
Speaker 1: That would be great. But the problem is it costs
Speaker 1: a lot of money for us to travel anywhere. And
Speaker 1: that's if you know, that's that's that's the problem. I
Speaker 1: remember years ago I proposed going on a national tour
Speaker 1: on the radio show, getting some twenty four hour diners
Speaker 1: somewhere in a national chain to sponsor the show and
Speaker 1: just do remotes like I Hops or Denny's or you know,
Speaker 1: Norms or those twenty four hour restaurants. But that never happened.
Speaker 1: So I gotta be fun though, wouldn't that be fun
Speaker 1: in the morning? Yeah, you don't have to go to
Speaker 1: I mean, what cities would you choose, like at least
Speaker 1: five throughout the country. You gotta be big Mallard malicious city.
Speaker 1: So like Kansas City in Minsota, we do well in
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis. Boston's been very good to me over the years.
Speaker 1: Uh where where else? Students at Seattle has been good
Speaker 1: to Seattle has been solid. We do pretty well there.
Speaker 1: We've been well lately in the Bay Area in San Francisco,
Speaker 1: which has been cool. We've got people on the big
Speaker 1: sports station there. Uh and uh, Houston actually, but it's
Speaker 1: like a love hate thing. I think I would need
Speaker 1: like police escorts to go to Houston because of all
Speaker 1: the things I've said about the Astros and the Texans,
Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson those idiots over the years, and James Harden
Speaker 1: and whatnot. But i'd be that'd be fun, Jason writes
Speaker 1: in Jason from Ottawa. He's pretty funny, man, He says,
Speaker 1: when will scientists declare Brian win Horse to be in
Speaker 1: fact sasquatch your thoughts? Guess, guy, that's pretty damn good man.
Speaker 1: That's really good. Wind Horse is a great basketball writer,
Speaker 1: you know. I actually when I did Ben Mallard dot Com,
Speaker 1: wind Horse was a local writer at the Akron Beacon
Speaker 1: Journal in the Cleveland area, and I featured some of
Speaker 1: his stuff and and uh we had some some correspondence
Speaker 1: from time to time, briefly early on. And he's I
Speaker 1: give him credit because you know, I used to look
Speaker 1: like he looks right now, and I would never go
Speaker 1: on television because I'd be like, oh my god, you know,
Speaker 1: I don't know what I mean. He's gonna put people
Speaker 1: like that on TV? Him? And what's that guy in
Speaker 1: the bay, Ray Ratto? Right, that's the guy Ratto looks
Speaker 1: like he has no business being anywhere. He looks like
Speaker 1: a walrus. And uh, anyway, but he's I give him credit,
Speaker 1: and these guys are on TV. Jason Otto was other question,
Speaker 1: last one? When will there be a Ben Mallers sound
Speaker 1: board available? Let's go to Guescon again. This is your
Speaker 1: domain there. Could you put a sound board of some
Speaker 1: of the great drops from callers and whatnot on the show,
Speaker 1: or just stupid things that I've said, Well, we could
Speaker 1: put I don't know, we could put a handful of
Speaker 1: them on here. I just feel that it will water
Speaker 1: down the authenticity of this podcast and also take away
Speaker 1: from what you guys do money through Friday? Is that fair?
Speaker 1: I think it is because people plus it's more work
Speaker 1: for you, and you don't want to do that. That's
Speaker 1: not true. I mine you wouldn't get paid for it.
Speaker 1: I created that wonderful opening for to you. I actually
Speaker 1: wrote the copy for it, had it actually done in
Speaker 1: format it which people love. They've written emails and tweets
Speaker 1: about it. So I did that. Um wow, you know
Speaker 1: I want to take about why don't you do a
Speaker 1: victory lab run around? Go ahead? Much like Gayls, much
Speaker 1: like Gayle's husband d seventy five miles to come to
Speaker 1: the studio to record this for you. So I do
Speaker 1: a lot of do a lot of work for the
Speaker 1: unappreciative Ben Mallory. You know you are such an eagle man.
Speaker 1: This is why the militia hates you. You are not
Speaker 1: a man of the people. You are not a man
Speaker 1: of the people. And they're all hard working people that
Speaker 1: works fifty hours a week. I'm I'm like one of them,
Speaker 1: blue collar, but much like myself, they follow the code
Speaker 1: of the West. You do take pride in your work.
Speaker 1: You finish what you start, but you don't brag about it. Okay,
Speaker 1: because it's you do what you're supposed to do. I
Speaker 1: don't brag about so I'm gonna do the code of
Speaker 1: the West. I gotta teach you the code of the Well,
Speaker 1: moving on, don't stick to sports stories of the week.
Speaker 1: This is the tawdry taboo and bazaar that aren't sports source.
Speaker 1: Of course, most of this podcast has had nothing to
Speaker 1: do with sports. Uh guess god, this is your domain.
Speaker 1: Here one of the craziest bazaar, stupid stories that you've
Speaker 1: seen all the last couple of days this week. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm happy you had a great transition talk of the
Speaker 1: last Well, how about this talk of the East? Dave East?
Speaker 1: Do you know who that is? Do not? Dave East
Speaker 1: is as a rapper. He's a New York City based rapper.
Speaker 1: And uh, I'm more West Coast rap. I know, well,
Speaker 1: what do you? I'm West Coast. I'm o g with Snoop. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Snoop you know California girls. Oh that was not really rapping,
Speaker 1: but yeah, alright, I bring him up because Snooper friends.
Speaker 1: By the way, I sat next to Snoop at the lake.
Speaker 1: He's in front of me, but he was real close,
Speaker 1: did you no? I looked at his back game, but
Speaker 1: he did. Yeah, go ahead, all right, Well, Davey's, the
Speaker 1: rapper at New York was was pot last week in
Speaker 1: Las Vegas. And the reason why, um, he got a
Speaker 1: little after it after attending Drey's nightclub. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I know you don't go to night club US, but
Speaker 1: Dre's is an after hour nightclub, and uh, he was there,
Speaker 1: brought a couple of girls back to his hotel room
Speaker 1: and actually had a threesome while having the three. While
Speaker 1: having the threesome, Ben, one of the women reportedly took
Speaker 1: a couple of bottles of champagne, didn't open them, but
Speaker 1: literally threw them at his dome. Officers came, Yeah, she
Speaker 1: was naked, of course she was. Officers came, took her statement.
Speaker 1: But then they also said he returned fire by throwing
Speaker 1: punches at her during this whole melee because reportedly she
Speaker 1: wasn't giving or he wasn't giving her enough of the business. Really, Yeah, alright,
Speaker 1: couple of thoughts here. Number one, just I I don't
Speaker 1: know any other than what you told me, But my
Speaker 1: immediate knee jerk reaction, by theory is number one, that
Speaker 1: he was not giving this lady enough attention. He was
Speaker 1: focused more on the other lady, and it's very difficult.
Speaker 1: I've not done that the I'm sure you do that
Speaker 1: all the time, guest on the two against one or
Speaker 1: one of its too, But I I believe in that environment.
Speaker 1: The problem is that you have to multitask. It's like
Speaker 1: chewing gum and walking at the same time. And it
Speaker 1: can be it can be a problematic. And the other
Speaker 1: thing is the law of unintended consequences. Right like you,
Speaker 1: as a guy, you get into something like that, you're thinking,
Speaker 1: everything's just gonna be like a movie you watch on
Speaker 1: your favorite smutty website. You know, everything would be great,
Speaker 1: everything gonna be perfect, And amazingly it does not working.
Speaker 1: What good luck to Papa Bear. I hope that he
Speaker 1: gets another opportunity there and everything. How about this, You've
Speaker 1: you've been married for quite a while. Uh, not that long.
Speaker 1: I'm still in the wedding bliss stage of the marriage.
Speaker 1: If the miss has ever said, hey, Ben, we need
Speaker 1: to go down a different path in our uh sexual experiences,
Speaker 1: would you ever be open to that? Uh? No? I
Speaker 1: mean I I I would most likely say not, uh,
Speaker 1: just because I don't like to see myself naked. I'd
Speaker 1: like to think that I, if I could, I would
Speaker 1: wear a burka at all times. My wife does not
Speaker 1: feel that way. My wife is a very beautiful woman,
Speaker 1: and she loves to to show off the beautiful skin
Speaker 1: and all that, her good looks and all that. But
Speaker 1: I'm not. I like to hide, so I I would feel,
Speaker 1: you know, bringing other people into the equation. Uh, third
Speaker 1: man in. You know they have a ruling hockey third
Speaker 1: man in. You can't do that. I bring that up
Speaker 1: because of this. You remember a K forty seven, right
Speaker 1: Andre Carolinko, You saw just skinny guy. Well, Thomas middle Ditch.
Speaker 1: He's actually a television star for that show, A Silicon Value. Uh.
Speaker 1: He went on an interview recently with Playboy, which I
Speaker 1: don't know they still published material, but he actually said
Speaker 1: that I thought they went out of business. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: me did. I did too. Um. He said that an
Speaker 1: open relationship actually saved his marriage. He said, only after
Speaker 1: I got married was I like, Molly, I'm sorry, I
Speaker 1: want to go non traditional here. So to her credit,
Speaker 1: we were able to figure this thing out and she said, yeah,
Speaker 1: let's figure this thing out all right. So the obviously
Speaker 1: is a why bother. I mean, if you're just gonna,
Speaker 1: you know, stoop anybody you want to stoop, then why
Speaker 1: what's the point of being marriage? Okay? So what if
Speaker 1: you're I know, there's like people have open marriages. I've
Speaker 1: heard of that. I mean, that's a thing, especially in entertainment.
Speaker 1: People do it. Why don't say I'm an open marriage? Okay?
Speaker 1: So what about this though? What if you're a female
Speaker 1: and you get married to Tim Tebow, who reported is
Speaker 1: still a virgin and he's not cutting it in the sack? Yeah,
Speaker 1: if you're a female and you have your needs, do
Speaker 1: you go out the beaten path? Ah? I mean you
Speaker 1: should try to. I mean people have urges in you know,
Speaker 1: human nature takes over. I mean should try to avoid.
Speaker 1: I mean there are some devices you can get that
Speaker 1: will help massage the situation there if you will. But
Speaker 1: I don't. Uh. The other the other thing about these
Speaker 1: these relationships and all this stuff. I mean, it's like
Speaker 1: the swinger clubs. I had a buddy mine years ago
Speaker 1: that went to one of these things, and uh, and
Speaker 1: it was telling me it was like it was all
Speaker 1: like disgusting old people, you know what I mean, it's
Speaker 1: the idea I think most guys have an idea that
Speaker 1: they and and I've not been to these things, so
Speaker 1: maybe this guy was just it was one experience. But
Speaker 1: I mean, you envisioned this being again like a porno
Speaker 1: where everyone's beautiful and all that stuff. But I have
Speaker 1: a feeling that at these places, these swing clubs, that
Speaker 1: they're just disgusting, ugly people most of the time. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's probably a couple of good looking people, but I
Speaker 1: that's how I envisioned this. That's another reason for me
Speaker 1: not to take part. Fair enough, This is a special
Speaker 1: shout out to Chris and Houston. I know you will
Speaker 1: love this story and the one on the podcast. Right
Speaker 1: he's demanding to come on the podcast. Chris wants to
Speaker 1: be our first guest. Well, he's actually coming on right
Speaker 1: now in a special kind of way. Bena, a Houston man,
Speaker 1: was recently wanted by authorities, and the reason why was
Speaker 1: because he actually filed and completed a divorce without his
Speaker 1: wife's permission, so he could he committed aggravated perjury when
Speaker 1: he went through the divorce process signing all the documents
Speaker 1: without his wife's can scent Wow? Yeah, Like I I
Speaker 1: saw that this is an amazing story to me. All Right,
Speaker 1: this is cloak and dagger, this is outlaw, this is bootleg,
Speaker 1: this is all of those adjectives. What a like villainist
Speaker 1: type slimeball. But at the same time you're the arch villain.
Speaker 1: But you respect, you respect the effort that I wouldn't
Speaker 1: even think that you could pull something like. Obviously he
Speaker 1: didn't pull this off. But you I imagine, and I
Speaker 1: don't know if this is true enough, but imagine the
Speaker 1: whole time this is going on, He's not tipping his
Speaker 1: wife off at all. Right, he's just you know, living
Speaker 1: his married life, and and he's filling out all the
Speaker 1: paperwork and all this stuff. And uh, he's completely in
Speaker 1: the clueless about the whole thing. I love the effort.
Speaker 1: How about the effort on this one. Uh, an eight
Speaker 1: hundred pound opioid cooking spoon was actually delivered to the
Speaker 1: front door of Johnson Johnson's New Jersey campus just a
Speaker 1: couple of days ago by an activist and an artist
Speaker 1: Ben This this thing is huge. It's like, it's obviously
Speaker 1: a real life form, but eight hundred pounds. It's a
Speaker 1: curve spoon. So I guess the best way to describe
Speaker 1: it as if you ever watched the Matrix and they
Speaker 1: bent the spoon one way, it was pretty much it's
Speaker 1: an old magic trick. You can bend spoons. You get
Speaker 1: the spoon hot, you can bend it. Uh it is
Speaker 1: did did the lame jokes were actually earlier in the week,
Speaker 1: But did the spoon smack down? Guests kind of get it?
Speaker 1: Was it delivered by Aunt Hazel? Did she come out there?
Speaker 1: And yeah, special kind of stuff. So it's a ten
Speaker 1: ft long, eight hundred pounds spoon, and obviously it's dedicaid
Speaker 1: towards the opioid crisis here in the United States. So
Speaker 1: run the front doorstep of Johnson and Johnson. That's that's
Speaker 1: a pretty solid move. It's a yeah, Johnson and Johnson.
Speaker 1: We all these these drug companies are facing these living
Speaker 1: lawsuits and some of them are settling and stuff. I've
Speaker 1: been reading these stories. But the the heroin thing, it's
Speaker 1: a big deal. It's a big problem. I got a
Speaker 1: lot of guys that listen to me that have had
Speaker 1: either been on the heroin or they're on the heroine
Speaker 1: right now, or Fenton all or all that stuff. Man,
Speaker 1: it's a big it's a big problem. And I it's
Speaker 1: it's it sucks because people start out they need the stuff,
Speaker 1: they get injured or something like that, the doctors give
Speaker 1: it to him, and then they get addicted to it,
Speaker 1: and then they're buying the crap on the backyards and
Speaker 1: garages and stuff like that. It sucks. Speaking of crapple
Speaker 1: and on a on a low note here, Um, I
Speaker 1: know how a teen was actually busted a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago. He was sent I want to hear you
Speaker 1: give this story. That's what I would like to do
Speaker 1: this so Ohio teen was actually sentenced to jail after
Speaker 1: he admitted to uh serving his teacher a crepe. Um. Yeah, Ben,
Speaker 1: it was part of a bad joke during a cooking competition.
Speaker 1: The crepe just wasn't any original kind of crepe with
Speaker 1: maybe some bananas and whipped cream and some eggs in it.
Speaker 1: It was a semen tainted crepe that he served to
Speaker 1: his teacher in the Navy. He's a seaman of yours.
Speaker 1: My rim shot, I need a rim shot, Yeah, God,
Speaker 1: I need a rim shot. That's a bad job, but
Speaker 1: you yeah, that's right. Thirty days in jail and the
Speaker 1: detention center for obviously uh supplying his teacher with a
Speaker 1: tainted covered creepe. Yeah. I mean, here's how I relate
Speaker 1: to this story. Not that I've ever eaten a crepe
Speaker 1: in that in that way, but we get said a
Speaker 1: lot of mail listen that way. Well we we well,
Speaker 1: we get sent mail food from listening a couple of
Speaker 1: days ago. I know. Yeah, well we're not that's an
Speaker 1: HR matter. We're not supposed to be talking. That's with
Speaker 1: I heart HR. But um. But but yeah, so I
Speaker 1: I get sent food and and and stuff, and most
Speaker 1: of it if it's if it's open, you're you're always concerned,
Speaker 1: right If your listener comes and brings food in, you
Speaker 1: don't know if they've added some extra spices on it
Speaker 1: or whatever their own their own touch. But usually I'll
Speaker 1: have Coope eat some of it first or one of
Speaker 1: the other guys, and and we'll see if it's any
Speaker 1: good or not. And then if they don't die within
Speaker 1: an hour, I figure it's probably pretty good, so I'll
Speaker 1: just I'll have something. Here's the thing, though, this is
Speaker 1: a tricky spot because this teenager wasn't the only one. He,
Speaker 1: along with seven other students, were actually accused of the
Speaker 1: assault and for the crimes so execution wise, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: have some listeners that give us an idea of how
Speaker 1: this thing would go down. Well, I would think that
Speaker 1: it's pretty obvious how it would go down. You need
Speaker 1: to get the substance. How do you get the substance?
Speaker 1: But would you feel comfortable with six other participants in
Speaker 1: this prank with you? Well, you think they all stood
Speaker 1: around in a circle at the same time and did this?
Speaker 1: Is that what you're like? I would imagine they just
Speaker 1: passed this thing, this thing around is all your turn
Speaker 1: going to do your business? I don't know. I'm not
Speaker 1: the baker here. I like that all these uh, these
Speaker 1: young young people that do this kind of stuff. Everything's
Speaker 1: recorded so right, It's like everything's documented with a cell
Speaker 1: phone vide you know. It's just wonderful. That's where that's good.
Speaker 1: That's what we got for the five stories. All right,
Speaker 1: very good. So there it is an extended version. I boy,
