1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: Boom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a

2
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:09,280
Speaker 1: week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants of

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats

4
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,800
Speaker 1: crackheads in the ghetto cutter the same as the rich

5
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:20,240
Speaker 1: pill poppers in the penthouse, to clearing house of hot takes,

6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:24,080
Speaker 1: break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben

Speaker 1: on this. This is your third consecutive week I believe

13
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: I said the other day on the podcast, right, this

14
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: is your third consecutive weekend with me. So that means

15
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 1: you have this is your ninth consecutive podcast that you

16
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: have been on the Fifth Hour by hook or by crook.

17
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: You have been here for nine consecutive podcasts, and so

18
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: you've become the new regular guy. Nine in a row.

19
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 1: That's that's insane, man, No days off, as you always say,

20
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: Holy Mother of God, Nine in a row for Ryan McMahon, Well,

21
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: this is the mail bag and people have asked when

22
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: where do you get the questions from? Actually, nobody ever

23
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: asked that it's on Facebook. We post Wednesday. I try

24
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: to do in the morning, but sometimes I forget. Sometimes

25
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: I forget, So it's it's on Facebook. Ben Mallers Show

26
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: is the Facebook page that you don't go to some

27
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: rip off Ben Mallor Show page because Ben Maller Ben

28
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,199
Speaker 1: Mallor Show page on Facebook and we have a little

29
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: community and people are generally nicer, although there have been

30
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: some real douches on Facebook lately I've had to get

31
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: rid of because my my theory on social media is

32
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: there I'm there for work reasons and whatnot and to

33
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: hang out, but if you're an asshole, I don't need

34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: to deal with you. I mean, I'm not paid to

35
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: deal with assholes on Facebook. I'm paid to deal with

36
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: assholes on on radio. I guess that's what I get

37
00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: paid to do. So But anyway, Ben Maller Show on

38
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 1: Facebook if you want to post there, and you can

39
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: also email questions. We have a growing list of people

40
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: that send email. In fact, this week we got more

41
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: questions on email than we did on the Facebook page,

42
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 1: which I was disappointed about because usually the Facebook page

43
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 1: has been very very effective. But a real fifth hour,

44
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:30,480

57
00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: I am asking for a friend that is very insulting

58
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 1: to even uh, you know, compare me to Gascon. I

59
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: take great offense to that. I agree, But you like

60
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: the Boston Hater, you'd be cool if he If you

61
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,600

62
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: your godfather, you'd be cool with that. Right, you should

63
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 1: hate Boston because that's like hating evil. There's nothing wrong

64
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,639

Speaker 1: Besides feeding the ducks and the squirrels, what are your hobbies?

69
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: That's a great question, and one of my hobbies. I

70
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: watched a lot of documentaries, a lot of that crap

71
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 1: on the weekends, scroll through YouTube, find random things. I

72
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: love word which is a very boring habby hobby, but

73
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: I love words and phrases and trying to polishing up

74
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: my lexicon, always trying to add some new terms to

75
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: my my you know, the monologues and whatnot, because that's

76
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 1: all I have. We don't have photos and all that.

77
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: I have his words. So if you can find different

78
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 1: ways to say the same thing, I love that. So

79
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: that's if that counts as a hobby. But no, I

80
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: do random things with the with the wife. I used

81
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: to like working out. I haven't been able to do

82
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 1: that since I moved to the halfway house because my

83
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 1: treadmills in thirteen thousand pieces in a storage shed somewhere,

84
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 1: so I don't have I don't have that. But those

85
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: are first world problems. John the Jailer writes in from Pennsylvania.

86
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: He says, Ben, being such a handsome guy and a

87
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,919
Speaker 1: big time radio personnel, will thank you. John. Have you

88
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: ever had a stalker? And he says the same question

89
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 1: for Gascon and what was his name? Wow? All right,

90
00:04:55,279 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: interesting John, little kid shame here. We don't. I don't

91
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: know that i'd ever say a stalker. I've had some

92
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: people that I deemed rather creepy that were way too

93
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: into my life for my taste, that really wanted to know,

94
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: like where I lived, and and there were some people

95
00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,359
Speaker 1: that have sent me email that found my address somehow,

96
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: and that that scared me a little bit. That's given

97
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: me a little bit as far as like a female stoker,

98
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: the only one that I would really say. When I

99
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: was a young guy working local radio in l A.

100
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: There was a woman that really was kind of into

101
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: me and I. We were like penn pals, and we

102
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: were right back, email back and forth, and she was

103
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: a big fan and I never met her, but she

104
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: really tried, and she had a job that gave me

105
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: the heebie geebs, and so I didn't. It was it

106
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 1: was kind of freaked me out a little bit, maybe

107
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: a little queasy. She was a corner at the l

108
00:05:56,279 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: A County Corners office and and she was like, oh, yeah,

109
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: I have the show on while she was doing an

110
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,839
Speaker 1: autopsy or something. Just kind of freaked me out. Yeah, yeah,

111
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: well you know that's uh that while so she never

112
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 1: called into the show and said Ben play Misty for me.

113
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,479
Speaker 1: She did call a couple of times into the show.

114
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: She did occasionally called, but I don't I think she

115
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: ever requested that. But but it's ironic because we've had

116
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people working in that business, in the

117
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: mortuary business or the corners business, that are fans of

118
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 1: the show because the hours were on. The hours were on.

119
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: We have Letty who works at a cemetery in Miami,

120
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: in Miami Air Fort Lauderdale, and Hayes, the crazy guy

121
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: from Minnesota. Get a few of them. Blind, Emmett, the

122
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,080
Speaker 1: Seahawks fan in Olympia, Washington. Hey, by the way, Emmett,

123
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: some guy randomly emailed me. I think he's blind and

124
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:56,120
Speaker 1: he wanted to reach out to you. So if you're

125
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: okay with that, you gotta give me the okay, send

126
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:00,279
Speaker 1: me an email Emmett and all if you want to

127
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:01,919
Speaker 1: help this guy out. He I think you need some

128
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 1: help because he's a fellow blind guy and he's impressed

129
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,480
Speaker 1: by your work. That's that's at least what I took

130
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,840
Speaker 1: away from the email that he said. Anyway, Blind Emmott.

131
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: When he's in high school, this guy what a study?

132
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 1: This kid is him? You know Blind Emmett every now

133
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: and then. Yes, he's very smart. Right, He's smarter than

134
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: the average sports talk radio caller by a lot. He's

135
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,200
Speaker 1: good to converse with, he's sharp. I like the guy.

136
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,320
Speaker 1: He's going place. Anyway, Emmett says, if you had to

137
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 1: live with one of these people for a year, who

138
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,560
Speaker 1: would you choose? He says, Haze in Minnesota, Blind Scott

139
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 1: in Boston, beer drinking Brian or Brian Finley. Wow, that's

140
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: a you know, you know, you know what this is.

141
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: This is Sophie's choice. This is you're damned if you do,

142
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 1: if you're damned if you don't. This is being stuck

143
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: between the devil and the deep Blue Sea is what

144
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 1: this is. So I met I've met blind Scott, I've

145
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 1: met unfortunately Brian, he made the mistake of inviting him

146
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: to the Mallard Ugly Sweater Party, which will never happen again,

147
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: never happen again. So we right off the top. The

148
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: first one I'll eliminate is Brian Finley. Yes, he's he's

149
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 1: a Stage five clinger. He's a Stage five clinger and

150
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: so very annoying. And he's tried to hijack members of

151
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: the Mallard Militia and and horn swoggle some of our

152
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 1: fans away. He's piggy backing on the success of the

153
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: Mallard Militia brand all eight of us to try to

154
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: cipher away some of our fans. And that bothers me.

155
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:42,680
Speaker 1: That rubs me the wrong way, So I would not

156
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,640
Speaker 1: want to hang out with him. Now I've met blind

157
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 1: Scott and blind Scott in Boston most of the time.

158
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: Blind Scott's fine. And the cool thing about blind Scott

159
00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: is you can hide from him because he can't see you.

160
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: So that would be something that would be that would

161
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: be something that is attractive to me with blind Scott

162
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: and the problem that blind has blind Scott has is

163
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: he has a lot of peaks and valleys, a lot

164
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 1: of peaks and valleys where he'll be fine for a while,

165
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 1: and then, as we know from his calls into the

166
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: Overnight Show, it's a can of worms all of a sudden,

167
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:21,959
Speaker 1: and he just becomes enraged, enraged and goes scorched earth.

168
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: So that's problematic. I don't know if Hayes is real

169
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: or not. I don't know if he is real or not,

170
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 1: but if he is real, I want nothing to do

171
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 1: with him because I believe he will kill me and

172
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: I don't want any to do with that. If he's faking,

173
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 1: maybe I'd hang out with him because it's all in act,

174
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 1: but you don't know he's faking or not until he's

175
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: cut you up. So uh. And then beer drinking Brian, Brian,

176
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: I think would be okay to hang out with. He's

177
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,680
Speaker 1: not in great health and all he does is sit

178
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: around and drink a lot and smoke a lot, So

179
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 1: I could just be in another room, like you know,

180
00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,560
Speaker 1: like everyone else is, Like Finley is a clinger, blind,

181
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: Scott goes flying off into a rage. Hayes is a lunatic,

182
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: So I would take beer drinking Brian that that's the

183
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:13,559
Speaker 1: process of elimination right there. Play Brian's in such poor health.

184
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: Who knows what's gonna happen with him? You know, you

185
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 1: don't know anyway, Richard writes in from Ottawah. I think

186
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 1: that's how you say it, Tennessee. Can you have more

187
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 1: podcasts without garbage gag On? Yes, Richard, your dreams are

188
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,280
Speaker 1: coming true right now. Say hello to McBain see. You're

189
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: making people happy. Ryan that this guy, Richard so happy

190
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: that Gaggon is not here. This is his dream comes true.

191
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: Be careful what you asked for. Yeah, be careful. Richard

192
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: also says will you ever have any of the overnight

193
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,840
Speaker 1: guys on the show? Well, sure, I'd have all those

194
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: guys on, but we don't pay anybody to be on

195
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: the fifth hour, and it's you know, I don't know

196
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: that they would want to do it unless they got paid.

197
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: So but if yeah, Eddie wants to come on here

198
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,520
Speaker 1: and we can go behind the scenes and talk about

199
00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: some of the old stories or Cooper Loop, Roberto, I'd

200
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: have all those guys on absolutely. I mean, there's other

201
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:09,800
Speaker 1: people I want to get on the podcast from Fox

202
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 1: Sports Radio. I've talked for a while. I promised the

203
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: vegan tysher I put him on. He's a talker, he's

204
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: into that animal stuff. I don't know. He's a weird dude.

205
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,880
Speaker 1: I like him, but he's a very weird person. He's

206
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: a very social guys, good guy, and he's he's not

207
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: an introvert like us, but I get along with him.

208
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: A lot of extroverts I don't get along with because

209
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,720
Speaker 1: they're too much for me. But we have like a

210
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: connection there, there's a connect. I get him, he gets me,

211
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,719
Speaker 1: so I'd like to get him on the parts. And

212
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: there's other people as well. So let's see here. Discrunt

213
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: Old Dale. Discrunted Dale writes in from parts of that,

214
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: and he says, I love the fact that you bring

215
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,640
Speaker 1: up the stros every night. I don't bring them up

216
00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: every night. There, let's stop right there. I just bring

217
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 1: them up when there's something in the sporting news that

218
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 1: relates to baseball and it involves the strows, he says,

219
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: I give them. It gives me great pleasure knowing that

220
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 1: it's still eating at you after all of the time

221
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: that has passed. Well, yeah, because it's like a crime

222
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 1: was committed and no punishment was handed out. So of

223
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: course you would be upset if you were as a fan. Uh.

224
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 1: You know, in the context of being a fan, you

225
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: were the one that was had something stolen from you,

226
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: and then nobody was punished, even though you caught the

227
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: person that did it. What's the point of that, he says.

228
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: It's just wonderful that it will eat at you the

229
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 1: rest of your days. No, No, I live a fine life.

230
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about the assholes from Houston that play baseball.

231
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:44,080
Speaker 1: And I'm not worried about that at all, he says.

232
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 1: I bet it's the first thing you think about when

233
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 1: you wake up. No, it's the It's the last thing

234
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 1: I think about when I wake up. No, when I

235
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 1: wake up, I think about, all right, what do I

236
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 1: have to do today? That's when I think about, like

237
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: everyone else, like how do I get out of bed?

238
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 1: I think I made it another day. I get another

239
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: day alive. You know, I'm I'm above the grass. Uh

240
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 1: so I I've I've done something good here, So I can't.

241
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: I can't stand Astros fans like your team cheated okay

242
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: and they got away with it, Scott Free, Like Astro

243
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 1: fans are almost as bad as Boston fans. I think

244
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: they're worse. I think they're worse. They're terrible. Now, they're worse.

245
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: They're worse. Fame to one about Astros fans. At least

246
00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: I'm not racist, so it's fine. Well, I'm sure they're

247
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,559
Speaker 1: racist Astro fans if you wanted to look hard and

248
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 1: you know, you can find racist people everywhere if you want,

249
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 1: if you want to look hard enough, you can probably

250
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: find them everywhere. So anyway, uh, destructor Dale says he

251
00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: wants to know why we don't whine about the Red

252
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: Sox cheating the Dodgers out of the World Series. You

253
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: should give equal time. These Socks brought back the same

254
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: cheating coach. Well, the stredul Dale, you're not that bright.

255
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,960
Speaker 1: I have gone into this. I know the the i

256
00:13:54,160 --> 00:14:00,439
Speaker 1: Q of the average Astro fan is not very high.

257
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: There's a lot of knuckle draggers among the Astro fan

258
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: base unfortunately. So let let me put this away for

259
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: you Neanderthals. The reason that we give the Astros a

260
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: hard time unlike the Red Sox. Another Red Sox did

261
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: do some shady stuff, there's no question, but that was

262
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: I think of it as a tree, right, and the

263
00:14:22,480 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: Red Sox was a branch on the Astros tree. Okay,

264
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: so the everything began with the Astros and Alex Cora

265
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 1: was the right hand man and he was the brains

266
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 1: behind the elicit espionage scandal, so he brought some of

267
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: that to Boston. But again it goes back you. You

268
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 1: if you wanna kill the fish, you cut off the head,

269
00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: right you you want to make sure the fish cut

270
00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: off the head. Yeah, I mean there's other ways to

271
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: kill the fish. But just go with it. Just go

272
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: with it. It makes no sense, it's to malarism. Just

273
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: go with so. So anyway, the point is that that

274
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: it all goes back six degrees of the Astros Bacon,

275
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,800
Speaker 1: not Kevin Bacon, the Astros Bacon. You understand like that

276
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: the botchery that took place, it all began with the Astro.

277
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: So my anger is directed to them. If Baseball had

278
00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,320
Speaker 1: done their job and gotten this under control before it

279
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: even got to the playoffs in and figured this out,

280
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 1: which is their their gig, then the Red Sox thing

281
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 1: doesn't happen the way it happened because Alice Cora doesn't

282
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: end up getting that job in Boston, and so then

283
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: that would have never happened. It all goes back to

284
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 1: the point of conception, which is in Houston. So that's

285
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: why I disgruntled Dale. I'm obsessed with that. Be sure

286
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays

287
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: at two a m. Eastern eleven p Empacific. Chris in Marriccota,

288
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 1: Iowa says, I got offered a ticket scanner job at

289
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: field a Field of Dreams game. Oh yeah, that's coming

290
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 1: up right, the Field of Dreams game. They're still doing

291
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: that in Iowa, the Yankees and the White Sox. Is

292
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: that right? I think that's right anyway, Chris says it

293
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: only pays twelve dollars an hour, and he would he

294
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,400
Speaker 1: would have to take two days off from his job.

295
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 1: He says, I'm not likely to see the game or

296
00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 1: meet the players. He says would would be part of history,

297
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,200
Speaker 1: should I take it? All? Right? So I'm gonna go

298
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: yes on this, Chris, And You're gonna lose money on

299
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: the deal. But one of my philosophies, and this is

300
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: something I told Gagon a while back, and he gets

301
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 1: annoyed because he complains about how little money he made

302
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 1: at a gig when he took a minor league broadcasting job.

303
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:48,000
Speaker 1: But my belief is life is all about the stories,

304
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,920
Speaker 1: and that would be a good one. That's that's a

305
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:57,760
Speaker 1: very unique thing. And it's the it's like the Doctor Seuss, right,

306
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:00,440
Speaker 1: it's the talk about some of the great Were you

307
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: a Dr Shus guy? I know he's been canceled, but

308
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: I was a big doctor One book was canceled. Calm down, No, no,

309
00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: he's been The Wolkesher has got him. But but no,

310
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: that the question. What was the quote? Oh, the places

311
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: you'll go, the people you'll see, right like that, that

312
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,680
Speaker 1: is is a big thing. So the story alone, you know,

313
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 1: you can make more money. You can get some more

314
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: money down the line. But to say, hey, I was

315
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,000
Speaker 1: at this special event, the Field of Dreams game in Iowa,

316
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: and I was there and I was working, and you

317
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:34,040
Speaker 1: can but wait, you're when you're an old dude, you

318
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: can like brag your friends or two. We all we

319
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: get older, we tell stories about things we did and

320
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: they're all these humdinger of stories. But you said I

321
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 1: was at that game. Yeah, I worked there. I was

322
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 1: behind the scenes. Yeah, but he just said he won't

323
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: even be able to watch the game. Just work there. Yeah,

324
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: but you're getting the vibe. You're out in the corn

325
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: fields and you know, I mean, if you really really

326
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: really love baseball that much, I say, do it, but

327
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,520
Speaker 1: I mean make money and like not even be able

328
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: to watch the game. That's a note for me. Dog

329
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,399
Speaker 1: Now I do it. Yeah, because you're Mr money bags

330
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: over here. Oh please, Mr money bags, I am in

331
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 1: debt up the key stir right there, absolutely anyway, So

332
00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:19,440
Speaker 1: I my advice is do it. Chris and McBain over there,

333
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: Ryan says, no, all right, I'm moving on on the

334
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,480
Speaker 1: mail bag. Ohio al Right said he was in the

335
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: Talent Show. He's a little bit angry here, and he

336
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,280
Speaker 1: gives a lengthy email regarding the Talent Show. He says,

337
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: thanks for all of the great reviews and the comments

338
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: you made on my song entring Talent Show. So he

339
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,920
Speaker 1: starts out with a compliment, really appreciate the positive feedback.

340
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,800
Speaker 1: Says he's not on Twitter, Ohio al and would love

341
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 1: to see the show judges of final scores and also

342
00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: the listeners final scores from the final eight, if possible,

343
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: could you post those on Facebook? Uh? Not likely, I

344
00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,960
Speaker 1: can see if I can go back. It's been a

345
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 1: few days so I can see if I go back

346
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 1: and find them, but they are. You don't have to

347
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 1: be on Twitter to go us. Type in twitter dot

348
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 1: com slash Ben Maller and scroll down and you can

349
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: see the results of that. So you don't really need

350
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: me to send the screenshots. So then, he says, I

351
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: have some observations and some comments on the logistics of

352
00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 1: the Town Show. This is the complaints department here, this

353
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: is where he's going to complain. Ohio, He says, I

354
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 1: thought the Talent Show was all about performances, burping, singing,

355
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: playing instruments, stand up comedy, etcetera. I assume you guys

356
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,920
Speaker 1: realized that just Josh and Jay scoop. Their entries were

357
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 1: produced by downloading the karaoke version of songs, all of

358
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: the song music but without the vocals, talking about Alan, Town,

359
00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,120
Speaker 1: Major Tom, etcetera, and adding their own vocals and show

360
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 1: drops via the audio production software. Don't get me wrong,

361
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,479
Speaker 1: the resulting songs are very well done and funny as hell.

362
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,920
Speaker 1: I love them. But you knew that but was coming Ohio.

363
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: Al says, But for you guys to talk my song

364
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 1: judging points for being recorded and not live and not

365
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 1: doing the same for Just Josh and Jay Scoop seems

366
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: a little bit hypocritical, and he points out that his

367
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: song Mallard Militia was a totally original production. Uh. Everything,

368
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 1: the progression, the melody, the lyrics, etcetera written performed by

369
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: Ohio All. The recording that he sent was basically a

370
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: live performance of the song captured in his basement studio

371
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,359
Speaker 1: with an ancient two track recorder using one microphone. No

372
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 1: overdubbing or production. So that's ohio Wells statement. Email continues.

373
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,680
Speaker 1: He says he could have performed the song live on

374
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: the show, but the problem there were his twofold. He says,

375
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 1: he would have been singing and playing the guitar into

376
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,119
Speaker 1: my phone and the sound quality would have been like

377
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: a tin can on a string, much like many of

378
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,199
Speaker 1: these podcasts. Uh, there you go, and he says at

379
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: five am, my voice would probably sound worse than Dick

380
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 1: in Dayton's did for his live performance. Sorry Dick, Yeah

381
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: that was a that was awkward anyway. So he says

382
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,159
Speaker 1: he's not trying to call anybody out, but he did

383
00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 1: call out j Scoop and Just Josh. Uh. The judging

384
00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,000
Speaker 1: is not perfect. Everyone has their own criteria with judging.

385
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,920
Speaker 1: That's how that works. I'm a better judge than Eddie,

386
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: and Eddie's a better judge than Coop, and Coop's a

387
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,239
Speaker 1: better judge than roberta or vice versa, depending on how

388
00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: you look at He says he does like the idea

389
00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 1: of several categories for the Town Show. We will change it.

390
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: We've only done one winner of the Talent Show because

391
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,920
Speaker 1: for years it was just a gag. Nobody took it seriously.

392
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: Who knew that we get to a point because Fox

393
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,680
Speaker 1: Sports Radio is on enough affiliates Now we're actually getting

394
00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 1: some traction and this is becoming a legitimate thing. I

395
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: never thought we'd get to that point. It was just

396
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: like lame jokes. Lame jokes started out. It was like

397
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 1: two people sending jokes in and now we've got dozens

398
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 1: of people sending jokes in. The the same thing with

399
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: the Talent Show. We started out we had a couple

400
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,600
Speaker 1: of dopey acts and that was it. So we gave

401
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 1: one winner out. But now we have so many acts

402
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 1: we might have to make it a two night thing

403
00:21:58,160 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 1: that not just one night. We might have to make

404
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 1: is two nights to get it all in. It's insane. Uh,

405
00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 1: Neil from Miami, Miami, Miami, the real Neil, the real Miami,

406
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,399
Speaker 1: he says, not the fake Miami. Rather, no punk Gass,

407
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: Palm Bay or Palm Beach, whatever, anyway, he says, last

408
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 1: Saturday's episode, I think he's going back a couple of

409
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: Saturdays now. He's was awesome. He sounded like you were

410
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 1: having fun because you were doing something you were not

411
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,560
Speaker 1: supposed to do, like a tryst with Ryan. Do you

412
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,720
Speaker 1: feel like you are cheating on Gascon when wrestler Ryan

413
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: McBain is in town or when meeting other men at

414
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: a truck stops? He said, wow, uh no, No, I

415
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,360
Speaker 1: love Ryan when he's here. I have a good time

416
00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,960
Speaker 1: with Ryan. He gets the podcast. He's other than his

417
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 1: michigas with Boston. I'm I'm all about it. Oh we

418
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 1: like that. And the the way you phrase that, Neil,

419
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,479
Speaker 1: it does sound awkward. I did meet a guy at

420
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: a truck stop. I met Moving Man Matt at a

421
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:15,639
Speaker 1: truck stop. So there, yes, well not really, he did.

422
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 1: Moving Matt Matts the guy that told me what a

423
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: lot lizard is. I've never heard of what a lot

424
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 1: lizard is before Moving Man Matt who educated me when

425
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: I went to the truck stop. What exactly that is

426
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: so bad? It does sound terrible, it does. It is

427
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:36,239
Speaker 1: And having seen some documentary online about lot lizards, they

428
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: do kind of look like you'd rather hang out with

429
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,280
Speaker 1: the lizard, you know what I'm saying. There's a not

430
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: not easy on the ice, not easy on the eyes,

431
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Yes, I do. Yeah, a

432
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: little a little tough there. Anyway, Neil continues. He says,

433
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,600
Speaker 1: the story about your cousins cracked me up. Yeah. I

434
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: told the story. My cousins were in town from Michigan,

435
00:23:56,800 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: and so we went over. We had a Mallard meet

436
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 1: and reet with the family there. He says. It was

437
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 1: like curb your enthusiasm and episode of that show a

438
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: little bit, Yeah, a little bit. He says, you are

439
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: obviously the master of presenting details to keep listeners engaged.

440
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 1: The eighty three degrees is a party foul seventy five,

441
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 1: especially if you have many more people in the house

442
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,960
Speaker 1: emanating heat. That's a great point. See, that's what it was,

443
00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 1: eighty three, But with all the people in the house

444
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: sitting around telling stories, it it had to be closer

445
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:33,840
Speaker 1: to three that's that's great scientifical knowledge by Neil. It

446
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 1: just ninety minutes is spot on. Yeah, that's the sweet

447
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,600
Speaker 1: spot ninety minutes. I'm glad you agree, Neil. He says

448
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,240
Speaker 1: he feels the same way. My family gets an F

449
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 1: on the Mallard report card for being able to say

450
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 1: goodbye and leave in a timely manner. It's my most

451
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: annoying thing about guests that just don't get it and

452
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 1: want to stay forever. What's yours? And arriving late? Gascon's

453
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,119
Speaker 1: pet people, Well he's not here yet again, uh, Neil?

454
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 1: So bad pet peeves at parties. Yeah, that's a fair question. So,

455
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: like I the whole goodbye thing annoys me. Uh, you

456
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't make Loony taught me this. You should make a

457
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: big entrance and a quiet exit at parties. That's a

458
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,119
Speaker 1: proper way. That's good decorum, good etiquette. Make a big

459
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: introduction tea here, I am right. But then when you leave,

460
00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 1: just kind of sneak out and people wonder what happened?

461
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: Where is the act? Where did he go? He didn't

462
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,800
Speaker 1: say goodbye? Where what happened? Uh? Now one of my

463
00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 1: pet peeves at parties is when people show up ninety

464
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: minutes late, two hours late, and then complain the food

465
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: is cold, when the food was served fresh and hot,

466
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 1: piping hot, when the party on time, when the party started,

467
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: and then they complain about that and whine about that.

468
00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 1: I also complain when people complain about you know, the bar,

469
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: there wasn't enough alcohol there, or the alcohol that they like,

470
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: that's annoying. Any of those things is a pain in

471
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:07,159
Speaker 1: the ass. And what about you there any party? You

472
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: don't go to parties, do you? Because you're well? I

473
00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:13,159
Speaker 1: used to, But people that are not self aware. Uh.

474
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,119
Speaker 1: I always say to myself, you never want to be

475
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,480
Speaker 1: the last person to leave at a party. You know,

476
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 1: you don't want to be that guy. I mean leave

477
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: like somewhere in the middle. I can't. I can't stand

478
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: super Bowl parties because people to go to those don't

479
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 1: like football. They just want to talk. And I want

480
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: to watch the damn game completely. That's great, that's a

481
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 1: great take. You're right. I've been to Super Bowl parties.

482
00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 1: I want to watch in solitary the super Bowl because

483
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 1: I want to I want to soak it all in.

484
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: I don't want to have someone, you know, I want

485
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: to want to talk about the stock market or the commercials.

486
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:49,720
Speaker 1: I don't need that, not at that time. I'm not

487
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: into it. Great point. Uh, And Neil says, bonus question.

488
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,400
Speaker 1: He says, Neil from the real Miami. Uh. He says,

489
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: like you, I am an introvert and struggle with these

490
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:07,040
Speaker 1: social obligations like eating shitty food somewhere else someone else

491
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:12,800
Speaker 1: made rather who made that a social contract? And he says,

492
00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: what's your prep on how to deal with these social

493
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: obligations that make us miserable, especially given the fact that

494
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,800
Speaker 1: your wife may take you in deep water with your

495
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 1: extrovert ways there need help from one introvert to another way.

496
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:34,080
Speaker 1: You have two introverts here. It's introvert helping introvert. So

497
00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: my move has always been my wife does take me

498
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: to very for me, very awkward social engagement. So the

499
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,879
Speaker 1: way I handle this, Okay, my move here it's very simple.

500
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: I don't take a lot of food. If you can

501
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: serve yourself, this is easy. Just don't take a lot

502
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,199
Speaker 1: of food and move stuff around the plate to make

503
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 1: it look like you ate. That's the key, right, because

504
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: you give the impress shan that you ate, And a

505
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:07,680
Speaker 1: lot of people don't micro analyze the dish, So you're

506
00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: okay with that. So that's my move if you have

507
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 1: any cheat code there McMahan on how to handle this, Uh,

508
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 1: don't eat first, go see whatever everyone else is eating,

509
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,399
Speaker 1: and then just go with that. Yeah, okay, I mean

510
00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: that's the way to do it too. But I would

511
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 1: say take very small uh now my trump card and this.

512
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,200
Speaker 1: You could try this one, Neil too. And I did

513
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: this actually at the event that I you were referencing

514
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:33,359
Speaker 1: the meat and Great Wars eighty three degrees there at

515
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 1: the my my relatives place. So the way this works here,

516
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: you know, I'm sorry, I started my fast and I'm

517
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: on you know, I'm doing interminute fasting and I can't eat.

518
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 1: I wish I could eat, but I can't eat. I'll

519
00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: take a doggie bag. You can give me some and

520
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 1: maybe i'll eat it later. How about that. I'm sure

521
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 1: you're cooking. Is great. It's not you, it's just my diet.

522
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: That's the move. And you can even show them the app.

523
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 1: Get the app on your phone, even if you don't

524
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: intermitute fast. Get the app on your phone and then

525
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: hold it up and before the party starts, like two

526
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,160
Speaker 1: hours before the party starts. That you're going to the dinner,

527
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: start the app, the timer on the app, and then

528
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 1: when you you go to the point, said, how are

529
00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 1: you been fasting for two or three hours? I can't.

530
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I cannot. I cannot eat the food I

531
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,320
Speaker 1: wish I could. That works. You can also say I

532
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,280
Speaker 1: have a food allergy. Yeah, that's a good one too.

533
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 1: And the food out you anything you cook I'm allergic to. Yeah, exactly,

534
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 1: cooking so bad that the homeless gave it back exactly exactly.

535
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: Uh what else? Up? Pierre had another one. He said,

536
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: I know that you fancy yourself a burgeoning chef, Ben,

537
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,719
Speaker 1: have you ever or your sidekick of the week over

538
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 1: that is, ever witnessed the glory and splendor of an

539
00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:49,240
Speaker 1: outdoor gas or wood fired pizza oven, As someone whose

540
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:53,040
Speaker 1: time is as valuable as yours, said, oven is a

541
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,240
Speaker 1: must have in the new Mallard mansion. Now, Pierre, that

542
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 1: is a great point. My wife has actually brought up.

543
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,240
Speaker 1: We love making pizza. It's one of the staple meals

544
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:04,760
Speaker 1: the Mallard mansion. So she's like, well, we have a

545
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: bigger backyard at this new place, so maybe we should

546
00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: have a wood fire, like a nice outdoor wood fired

547
00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:16,000
Speaker 1: pizza oven. And I don't know the first thing about

548
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 1: pizza ovens, but if you have a an idea, Pierre,

549
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 1: like what you use it. You said a photo here,

550
00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: But if anybody has and I'm not gonna go. I'm

551
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,560
Speaker 1: not gonna spend five thousand dollars on a pizza oven

552
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:35,600
Speaker 1: for you. If there's if there's something reasonably priced, I

553
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: would consider buying it. And you know, and then anywhere,

554
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: how long does that last? If you buy a gas

555
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: powered outdoor of it isn't the whole point to do

556
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,000
Speaker 1: like a wood fired pizza oven, but gas is more convenient.

557
00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 1: You have me a pizza now, I want pizza right now,

558
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: I'm starving. What's your favorite pizza? Anything with this like

559
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,800
Speaker 1: a pork on it? You know, I'm you're all about

560
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 1: the pork, sausage, pepperoni, bacon, Canadian bacon. Just stow the

561
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: whole damn pig on there. So you like putting that sausage. Yet, yeah,

562
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:14,120
Speaker 1: I know one thing I do not like on my

563
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,920
Speaker 1: pizza's pineapple. No, I think you've gone over this. Yes,

564
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 1: you have described your distaste, and they had barbecue chicken

565
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: pizza that's actually pretty good. Yeah, that's all right, it's

566
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,360
Speaker 1: all right, not bad, not bad. I had Pastrami pizza

567
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 1: that was really good, surprisingly good Pastronomi pizza. Did not

568
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: think I was gonna like it, but it was really good.

569
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: Let's see what is next. Moving on, Johnny from Glasgow,

570
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: Kentucky says, how did you meet your wife and where

571
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,600
Speaker 1: did you go on your first date? Well, that's personal information, Johnny.

572
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 1: I met my wife online though online dating, believe it

573
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: or not, a long time ago. And we went to

574
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 1: a movie theater in Pasadena, right next to Colorado Boulevard

575
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: where the Rose Parade goes down. And we were supposed

576
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 1: to see a movie, and my wife did the old

577
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: bait and switch. She's she's like, well, she decided she

578
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:06,880
Speaker 1: didn't want to see the movie. Once we got there,

579
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,120
Speaker 1: there was a scheduling issue. I showed up a little late,

580
00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 1: but she really just wanted to talk. So we went

581
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: and went to a bar which was across from the

582
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 1: movie theater and I hung out. And the rest is

583
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 1: his story. What movie were you guys supposed to see? See? Now?

584
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: I don't remember. I know she remember women remember all

585
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,480
Speaker 1: this stuff. I don't really, I don't even remember you

586
00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: don't remember that. That's bad. That's bad, dude, that's not bad.

587
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 1: Just remember everything about the first date. It was funny

588
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: though I took. I was living in Lincoln Heights, and

589
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 1: I took the gold Line, the subway thing up to Pasadena.

590
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 1: I didn't take my car, and so I took the

591
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 1: gold Line up. And then I remember I was running late,

592
00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,280
Speaker 1: so I was like running to get I didn't want

593
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 1: to be late to the date, so I was like

594
00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 1: running to the date. And by the time I showed up,

595
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 1: I was fucking covered in sweat. It was during the summer,

596
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 1: and it was it was hot day, as I remember.

597
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 1: And so you talk about making a shitty first impression,

598
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 1: A you're late, be you're covered in sweat. But it

599
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: worked out, all right, worked out all right. Of let's

600
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: see balls fan Jimmy says, have you ever been on

601
00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 1: a date and broke wind hoping she couldn't smell it?

602
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:24,800
Speaker 1: Of course? Yeah, yeah, the worst for me. And I

603
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,440
Speaker 1: don't know if you agree with me on right right?

604
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 1: If you go like, we're in l A, so we

605
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:29,720
Speaker 1: go to Vegas A lot you go to Vegas with

606
00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 1: a you're dating somebody and you go to Vegas with

607
00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: a woman and you're still in the early stages of

608
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,239
Speaker 1: the or a guy for them. I don't, but you're

609
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:39,440
Speaker 1: in the in the early stages of a relationship, okay.

610
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,320
Speaker 1: And the thing that bothers me about the hotel room

611
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 1: is there's only one bathroom and it's a very small space.

612
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: So I like to let it rip with the flatulence, okay.

613
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,720
Speaker 1: So and you you're not at the stage where it's

614
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,920
Speaker 1: okay to to to you know, farting all that. So

615
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,080
Speaker 1: the problem that I have with the hotels set up,

616
00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,800
Speaker 1: and I've done this many times, and it's it's it's

617
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:11,600
Speaker 1: been a mistake. But my move here is I mean, like, hey,

618
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:14,040
Speaker 1: you know, I I need to go down to the lobby.

619
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,040
Speaker 1: I want to check out, you know, because I'll be

620
00:34:16,160 --> 00:34:17,960
Speaker 1: right back. I need to go down the lobby. And

621
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:19,799
Speaker 1: so then I'll go down to the lobby to use

622
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,320
Speaker 1: the bathroom down on the casino floor to cut the cheese,

623
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:24,880
Speaker 1: you know, to send out the airborne toxin, and then

624
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: I'll get back. But I don't. So it's it's a

625
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 1: it's a pain in the as it's a nuisance, you

626
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. There's ways around that, Like when

627
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,600
Speaker 1: you're you know, letting the air fly just you know,

628
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,400
Speaker 1: you know, or your cough or something. Yeah, And some

629
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: of the hotels have I like this, the fan in

630
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 1: the bathroom. That's a good move. I like that. But

631
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 1: I've stayed at hotels that don't have that, and so

632
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 1: then you end up you do the old rumbley tumbley,

633
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: but you gotta go down. It's a pain of the air.

634
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,800
Speaker 1: That's Mike. That's my complaint. False Fiji. I have a

635
00:34:56,920 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 1: very weird uh image in my head now, thank you. Yep.

636
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: Fred from Spring, Texas, is what's your favorite dinner? That's uh.

637
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: It depends on them ads on my move. Fred, I

638
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 1: live in l A. There's great Mexican food here, so

639
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: I like Mexican food, but I like Philly cheese steak.

640
00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:13,800
Speaker 1: I like anything. It's unhealthy. I have the diet of

641
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,240
Speaker 1: like a nine year old. I like cruncheek, tacos, cheese steak.

642
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 1: I love cheese steak, pastrami sandwiches. I'm a big fan

643
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,800
Speaker 1: of that. You go down the list, chicken fingers, cheeseburgers,

644
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,800
Speaker 1: that's it. I mean, I could eat all those foods

645
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,840
Speaker 1: and just be had. My wife always complains because my

646
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 1: palette has like five things. I like chicken, palm, I

647
00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:36,240
Speaker 1: like fetecchini alfredo. That's about it. Those are like pretty

648
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,719

00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:50,520
Speaker 1: fat ass. I have no idea. I have no idea

670
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:54,279
Speaker 1: I was. I hope American athletes who well, as I

671
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:55,959
Speaker 1: said in the rant the other day, though, the people

672
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 1: that protest, I am openly hoping they all lose. Any

673
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: athletes that protests during the Olympics, I hope they just

674
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: get destroyed, absolutely destroyed the Olympics. You talk about not

675
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,919
Speaker 1: knowing your audience in the Olympics, that is the whole

676
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,560
Speaker 1: selling points of the Olympics are a it's a political

677
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:19,920
Speaker 1: and be its love of country. It's wrap yourself in

678
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 1: the flag. People watch the Olympics that don't even like

679
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: these sports, a lot of these sports, but they watch

680
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 1: it because it's a political and it's all about your

681
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:33,560
Speaker 1: country and how great your country is if you're from

682
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 1: Italy or Poland or Russia or the United States or

683
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 1: China or wherever. And these athletes are fucking it up,

684
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:45,320
Speaker 1: and I'm telling you it is going to be the

685
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: death of the Olympics. And the io C knows this.

686
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 1: They know this, and they're trying as much as they

687
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 1: can to keep these images from getting out on social

688
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,480
Speaker 1: media and limiting the amount of damage that they will

689
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,359
Speaker 1: be done. Yeah, we'll be done by them. Yeah, I'm sure.

690
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,080
Speaker 1: Tommy Smith and John Carlos I totally agree with you, Ben, Yes,

691
00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, I am absolutely right on this. Correct.

692
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 1: You are out of touch Ryan with the consumers of

693
00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,920
Speaker 1: the product. You have to know the audience. You have

694
00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,359
Speaker 1: to know the audience. And even now with protests being

695
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:19,239
Speaker 1: cool and the wocarati people think that this is great.

696
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: The ratings on sports have gone into the toilet in

697
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 1: the last couple of years, and there is a direct

698
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: correlation to this open wokeness that is going on, this disease.

699
00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,440
Speaker 1: There are a lot of people that were raised to

700
00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 1: watch sports that were they don't want to have to

701
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: shove down their throat and they have turned it out.

702
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:38,440
Speaker 1: And I hear it all the time. It's like, I

703
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,000
Speaker 1: like your show, but you know I can't. I'm sorry,

704
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,960
Speaker 1: I'm not into sports anymore because idiots like Lebron James

705
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:49,880
Speaker 1: and these people and so. And it's true, the ratings

706
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 1: are terrible right now. Have you been paying attention every

707
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: sport across the board. The ratings are god awful. And

708
00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: this is a direct reason for that. People in correlation.

709
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:03,399
Speaker 1: Everything lined up in a row, right, all the ducks

710
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 1: lined up in a row. You had the pandemic. You

711
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:10,280
Speaker 1: had athletes protesting, people realizing, you know what, there's a pandemic.

712
00:39:10,400 --> 00:39:13,080
Speaker 1: I don't need this bullshit. I'm not gonna watch. And

713
00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:15,719
Speaker 1: they didn't watch, and they haven't come back. They know

714
00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,160
Speaker 1: they don't. They have not come back. The audience has

715
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,879
Speaker 1: not come back to sporoch and and everyone said, well,

716
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 1: the the the counter argument, the Devil's advocate argument was well,

717
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:28,240
Speaker 1: the people are watching, but they'll come back once society

718
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,160
Speaker 1: opens up. Well, society has opened up and they haven't

719
00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: come back. I I you're wrong. You're have tangible evidence.

720
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:38,399
Speaker 1: You're absolutely wrong. Also, people watch sports differently. They don't

721
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: watch on TV. They watch on the internet or like that.

722
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,280
Speaker 1: But TV TV pays their bills based on live audience.

723
00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,560
Speaker 1: That's how sports programming works. The reason sports programming is

724
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: so valuable, it's because people consuming in real time. You

725
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:53,839
Speaker 1: don't watch old games, you consume it in real time.

726
00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: And the key part of that you watch the commercials

727
00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:00,719
Speaker 1: television has gone down financially because people, I'm like, I'm

728
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 1: right there with you. I don't watch commercials. When I

729
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: watched TV, I watch I watched streaming services. But sports.

730
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 1: The selling point of sports for advertisers is your forced

731
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 1: your captive audience. If you want to watch that ballgame,

732
00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: you've got to get those commercials. And if people aren't

733
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:20,080
Speaker 1: watching it, uh you know, live on on television the

734
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,400
Speaker 1: way you know it's done, then that is going to

735
00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:25,320
Speaker 1: affect the trickle that the economics of sports. That's just

736
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 1: the reality. Yeah, I'm sure the NFL and the NBA

737
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:30,840
Speaker 1: are really hurting for cash right now. Come on. The

738
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 1: NBA took all those woke slogans down because they realized

739
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,160
Speaker 1: this was a problem for their business. Yeah, they're putting

740
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: all the slogans on the court and the jersey's was

741
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,960
Speaker 1: not helping the product. And they took all those away.

742
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,920
Speaker 1: And if they if you think differently, you're wrong, because

743
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:47,600
Speaker 1: why else would they take those things away, Like they

744
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: want to show how woke they are there woker than you.

745
00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 1: It's like a pissing contest. And so they took those

746
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:55,359
Speaker 1: things away. And and because they were trying to get

747
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 1: the audience back, trying to get the market share back.

748
00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 1: You remember when, um, when Nike got quote on Woke

749
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,239
Speaker 1: and everyone was like, oh, I'll never buy Nike products again.

750
00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 1: Nike is making more money than ever. It's BS man,

751
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 1: it's BS. Well, you're wrong, I'm wrong. You can be wrong.

752
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 1: It's okay to be wrong. There's a lot of people wrong,

753
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 1: and you're absolutely wrong about But again my hypothesis in

754
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,080
Speaker 1: the Olympics, and keep in mind, a lot of the

755
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: rest of the world aren't like the morons in the

756
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,120
Speaker 1: United States who are all, you know, go out and

757
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 1: burn down cities and you know, protests, everyone's protesting. They're

758
00:41:25,880 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 1: not like that, and they are definitely not gonna be

759
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 1: in on the Olympics. And so I hope that we

760
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 1: do see a lot of protests because I've never really

761
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:34,520
Speaker 1: been Olympic guy. I mean, I watched it when I

762
00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: was a kid with my family or whatever, but I've

763
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,120
Speaker 1: never been a huge Olympic guys an adult. So I

764
00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 1: don't really care if it goes away and it becomes

765
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 1: even less and less important on the zeitgeist of the world.

766
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 1: But it trust me, it will be bad. It is

767
00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: gonna be bad. I really don't watch the Olympics. The

768
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: last time I was really into the Olympics it was

769
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 1: with Tanya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan that ship. That was

770
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:58,320
Speaker 1: a good love. That was good. That got me watching.

771
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's the last time was only into the Olympics.

772
00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,799
Speaker 1: That's a great scandal. Uh. And that's about the only

773
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: Olympics stuff. Like I did a monologue the other night

774
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 1: about my level of interest in the Olympics, which, by

775
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,880
Speaker 1: the ways, a two. If you missed that monologue on

776
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:15,960
Speaker 1: one to ten, it's a two. Uh. And that's about it. Uh.

777
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: My my wife's into it. It's really an event that

778
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:23,279
Speaker 1: does not appeal to our Our fans are sports radio fans.

779
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 1: Do you feel better now? By the way, are you okay?

780
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,240

781
00:42:27,360 --> 00:42:32,719
Speaker 1: very very angry a while ago. I'm passionate, passionate. Do

782
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,560

783
00:42:36,520 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta you gotta sell it, man, that's

784
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 1: the key. That's key to broadcasting. You know, that's gotta

785
00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:46,120
Speaker 1: sell it. Nobody wants to hear boring anyway. I think

786
00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:47,960
Speaker 1: that's it. I think we should put the baby to

00:43:47,360 --> 00:43:51,480
Speaker 1: up in Denver this fall, what do you think, who

808
00:43:51,480 --> 00:43:53,480
Speaker 1: do you think will win the quarterback battle between Drew

809
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:56,040
Speaker 1: Lock and Teddy Bridgewater? And where is the west of

810
00:43:56,120 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: the four oh five guy? Uh? The podcast has not

811
00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:01,719
Speaker 1: been the same without and we'll see. Look at that.

812
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:03,839
Speaker 1: Adrian took a shot at you. McBain, you can kiss.

813
00:44:05,960 --> 00:44:07,839
Speaker 1: I don't know where gas Scott has been. Guest Scar

814
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,880
Speaker 1: will have to answer that question. When he wants to

815
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,319
Speaker 1: answer that question, you can ask him. I'm not here

816
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:14,040
Speaker 1: to speak for gas Scar and I'm not his mother,

817
00:44:14,320 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: but if you want to speak for him, you can.

818
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 1: But you know he's he's taking care of something I

819
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:21,800
Speaker 1: understand right now. But that's his that's his issue, McBain,

820
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 1: not my issue to tell, yeah, but to answer a question,

821
00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:30,200
Speaker 1: Adrian teddy Bridgewater, which is good for me as a gambler,

822
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,520
Speaker 1: because teddy Bridgewater is straight cash on me for people

823
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: that bet. He is just good enough to cover the

824
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 1: spread and just bad enough to actually lose the game,

825
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:42,239
Speaker 1: which is perfect, right, which is perfect what you want.

826
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: You want to just be within the margin of error.

827
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: Teddy Bridgewater is within the margin of error. So Teddy

828
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 1: Bridgewater is gonna be the guy. That's the that's the answer.

829
00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 1: Kevin write, since this you're Ben. This is more of

830
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,960
Speaker 1: a compliment than a question. I regularly look forward to

831
00:44:56,080 --> 00:44:58,560
Speaker 1: your show and podcast. I get a regular laugh from

832
00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:02,200
Speaker 1: David's introduction with the studio audience applauses, and that a

833
00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:06,440
Speaker 1: douche move. You don't do that. Yeah, you're a man

834
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:11,080
Speaker 1: of the people, well most of them unless you're in boss. Yes.

835
00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: Uh and uh. He says uh. He likes to the

836
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 1: introduction there as well as the Ben. We you'll think

837
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 1: everybody like that, and that's a winner. He likes that,

838
00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: So I'll keep doing those I'll keep doing those things.

839
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 1: Let's see here. Eric in Ohio says, if half Point

840
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: would be let out but you had to vouch for her,

841
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:39,640
Speaker 1: what would you say to the judge. That's a good question.

842
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:43,880
Speaker 1: I would say. She's got a very distinctive voice. She's

843
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 1: beloved by random people who have never seen photos of her,

844
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 1: who know anything about her criminal history, and she I

845
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 1: do think that she means well. She's made some poor

846
00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,759
Speaker 1: decisions in life, and she's made some mistakes half Pint,

847
00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,600
Speaker 1: but she means well deep down at her her soul,

848
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,399
Speaker 1: she's she's a good person. But I don't know. Maybe

849
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: I'm completely wrong on that. But if I had to

850
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:09,600
Speaker 1: tell the judge something, that's what I would tell the judge,

851
00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:12,400
Speaker 1: he says. Would you tell beer drinking Brian to plead

852
00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:17,800
Speaker 1: to the court and take the heat. No half pints

853
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 1: made her own bed. She's gonna have to deal with it.

854
00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:21,759
Speaker 1: She's a grown up. She's gonna have to deal with

855
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,920
Speaker 1: the choices that she made and all that. Kevin in

856
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: Kansas as says, dear Ben, I enjoy the talent show

857

00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 1: could participate, what acts would you all do? Or maybe

862
00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: part of that. You could be like the fifth Beatle McBain.

863

867
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 1: all right, that's not a thing, please, man, that's not

868
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 1: a thing. I don't know what with a lot of

869
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:07,880
Speaker 1: talented musicians, you know that I don't know. Toss that

870
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 1: out of my took. It is what I did. Uh.

00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: Matt from me Mesa had we'll do that one. That

872
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:17,799
Speaker 1: would be the last one, and he says, here, which

873
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:20,480
Speaker 1: of each would you rather have? So toss up question?

874
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:25,040
Speaker 1: Toss up question from Matt in La Mesa, California says

875
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:32,560
Speaker 1: pretzels or chips. Okay, so soft pretzel over chips. If

876
00:47:32,600 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: it's a hard pretzel chips, that's my answer. Uh. If

877
00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:41,440
Speaker 1: I can have peanut butter pretzels, I'll go with the

878
00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 1: pretzels peanut, but yeah, those are okay, But it was

879
00:47:46,760 --> 00:47:51,200
Speaker 1: a fantastic the soft pretzels the king of the pretzel,

880
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:58,120
Speaker 1: like a real thick, fat soft pretzel in salt. Have

881
00:47:58,280 --> 00:48:00,839
Speaker 1: you had the authentic like Philadelphia a pretzel a New

882
00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 1: York Street petzel? Oh my god, those are great more Philadelphia.

883
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,400
Speaker 1: Philadelphia has got better pretzels than New York. But I digress.

884
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:14,400
Speaker 1: A slurpye or a milkshake tough one summertime. I have

885
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,359
Speaker 1: fun memories as a kid getting the slurpy after being

886
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,040
Speaker 1: in the pool all day. But I'd go milkshake as

887
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 1: an adult. Good milkshake. Uh, summertime, or if I'm got done,

888
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,680
Speaker 1: like running like four miles or something like that, I'm

889
00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,479
Speaker 1: just hot and sweating with something something cool, I gotta

890
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:33,040
Speaker 1: go with the slurpee. Yeah again, that's what I said.

891
00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 1: I give his summer you know. But most of the

892
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:39,240
Speaker 1: time I choose the milk shreek, which is I believe,

893
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 1: one of the worst dessert she can possibly consume the

894
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 1: course of course. But yeah, if I'm at home or wherever,

895
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,360
Speaker 1: I mean, not doing anything like, yeah, you go with

896
00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 1: the milkshake. Yeah, alright. Last one on the toss up

897
00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: questions from Matt, he says, fried chicken or ribs. I'm

898
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:59,600
Speaker 1: going fried chicken, but boneless, like a boneless big chicken

899
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: breast sandwich or chicken tenders, big thick chicken tenders. That's

900
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:10,239
Speaker 1: the way to go over ribs. Oh man, that's uh,

901
00:49:12,440 --> 00:49:15,000
Speaker 1: I guess I gotta go chicken. You're going chicken. A

902
00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:16,959
Speaker 1: good choice by you, A good job. That's the right answer.

903
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 1: That's a good take. That's a good take. That's right.

904
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,560
Speaker 1: It's a good take. You agree with me. You're not

905
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: in the septic tank of bad takes, all right. You're

906
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 1: not hanging out down there, you know, doing nonsense. That's

907
00:49:27,719 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 1: a good take. That's you know, that's the way to go. Uh.

908
00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:31,960
Speaker 1: He also says, what did you guys do with the

909
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 1: sixteen He says, sixteen cents you saved over the fourth

910
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 1: of July weekend? Did you start a trust fund or invested? Yeah,

911
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,080
Speaker 1: you know. I bought some doge coin I think is

912
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:45,759
Speaker 1: what I got, which is about what one share of

913
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 1: doge coin is worth. Sixteen cents. But it'll come back.

914
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,239
Speaker 1: It's gonna make a comeback. No, it's not. It's gonna

915
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:56,799
Speaker 1: make I sold my bitcoin, my doors coin, my all

916
00:49:56,840 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 1: the crypto out of the crypto game because that like dropped,

917
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 1: like what thirty uh in bitcoine. I'm like, oh my god.

918
00:50:05,120 --> 00:50:07,680
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm out, I'm out. I'm out. Everyone's

919
00:50:07,680 --> 00:50:09,840
Speaker 1: saying hold the line, hold the line. Now f that

920
00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 1: I'm out, I got my money. Well, that's the great

921
00:50:13,120 --> 00:50:15,080
Speaker 1: scam of the stock market. And I give the people

922
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,520
Speaker 1: that Wall Street credit and every stock advisor I've ever

923
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,080
Speaker 1: talked to, and anybody who I've been around, it's in

924
00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:23,279
Speaker 1: the stock game. They all say the same thing. When

925
00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:26,680
Speaker 1: the stock market crashes, that's the time to buy. That's

926
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:28,840
Speaker 1: when you get the deals. They always tell you the

927
00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: same thing, like, this is the time you can really

928
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:37,000
Speaker 1: make a killing. It's like trading places that movie. Yeah yeah, yeah,

929
00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,520
Speaker 1: but but it's also it's it's the same. I love

930
00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:43,480
Speaker 1: these these scams, these these shysters. It's like college football

931
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 1: and basketball coaches that are like, well, no, I need

932
00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,000
Speaker 1: a seven or eight year deal because the recruits have

933
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 1: to know I'm gonna be here. No you don't. You

934
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:54,560
Speaker 1: don't have to have a seven or eight year contract. Okay, stop,

935
00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 1: it's all a scam to have tremendous job security and

936
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,919
Speaker 1: all that. That's what they get. But yeah, I still

937
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,120
Speaker 1: I'm holding hope that my doge coin that I bought

938
00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:08,000
Speaker 1: will we'll go back up. But I am in the

939
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:12,000
Speaker 1: hole on that. I have the return, the total return

940
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,720
Speaker 1: on that is in the negative by a wide margin,

941
00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: by a wide margin, and it has gone down to

942
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: today as we're doing this in real exactly. That's why

943
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,680
Speaker 1: I got out. Yeah not, but but all it takes

944
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: is some big fat cats, some big rich investor or

945
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:32,880
Speaker 1: some some Reddit page to get all into the doge

946
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:34,320
Speaker 1: coin and everyone buy it up and then all of

947
00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 1: a sudden we'll go back up. Waiting around for that

948
00:51:38,040 --> 00:51:40,920
Speaker 1: be waiting a long time, but that's fine, and I'm

949
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,640
Speaker 1: in the long game alright. That is it. Have a
