When I saw that Facebook video last night, 0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:46.560 thought I was like, all height, Ben was just talking 0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:50.160 about North Carolina. For sure, there's some beautiful houses there, 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:54.120 and not that they're in my budget range. But if 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:55.360 you had a lot of money and you wanted to 0:01:55.360 --> 0:01:57.280 buy a house right on the ocean, and you you're 0:01:57.320 --> 0:02:00.840 not afraid of the occasional hurricane the throwing your house, 0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:05.560 and you can afford afford the insurance, the The sister 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.240 in law who's got married the wedding we went to, 0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:11.040 she rented out a house with a bunch of her 0:02:11.320 --> 0:02:15.480 college friends and it was like a beach front house, 0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:22.120 sixteen bedrooms and like twelve bathrooms. It was insane. It 0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:26.200 was this mega mansion and it was like three million dollars, 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:28.600 which is a lot of money, but a house like 0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:35.079 that in l a Oh, forget about exactly. And it's 0:02:35.200 --> 0:02:38.520 right on literally there was a path to the Atlantic 0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:41.760 Ocean from the house. It was beachfront property and it 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:44.360 was like well, and there were other houses across the 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:47.200 street that were not that bad.

It's an f 0:03:25.360 --> 0:03:30.000 and playground for the sea suckers makes me laugh crack 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.200 up every time. Oh yeah, that's a great line. I love. 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:36.080 My favorite line is pent of the world's f and 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:39.080 working the other fifteen people come out here, which is 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:44.720 the lead into that line. Great, so so wonderful. Adrian says, 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:47.240 how was your trip to the Midwest? How's the family 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:49.480 and appling? How is the wedding on the East Coast? 0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:53.520 Well we addressed all of that in the Mallard mini series, Adrian, 0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:56.200 he says, what is a Rerigley field like since it 0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:00.160 was renovated? Well, I use the analogy. It's like a 0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:04.760 little bit of disney Esque and Downtown Disney when you 0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:07.960 were visiting Disneyland Adrian in California a few months back, 0:04:08.000 --> 0:04:10.200 So you know what that's like. He says, did you 0:04:10.240 --> 0:04:12.720 see Doc Mike while you were there? That that's something 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:16.600 we didn't address, Danny. I did reach out to Doc 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:22.560 Mike Goat and Doc was in Florida with a patient 0:04:23.400 --> 0:04:26.720 in air quotes, and so he was not available. He 0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:29.000 he said he was going if if he had been 0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:32.479 in Chicago, he would have driven to the Wisconsin Meet 0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:36.360 and greet in Appleton and uh, and so he asked 0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:38.159 about deep dish. I ate a bunch of deep dishpeach, 0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:42.719 three or four different deep dish pizzas. Uh party. I 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:44.400 think you only eat a couple of pieces of those 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:47.160 things and then you're full. I wish I was back 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:49.160 in my fat days when I could eat a whole pie, 0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:52.800 but I don't have that skill anymore. Adrian says, I 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:54.640 was bummed out the here about your wedding ring. I 0:04:54.680 --> 0:04:57.400 heard a lot about this, Danny the podcast. I I 0:04:57.440 --> 0:05:01.440 mentioned the snaffoo at the beach. He says, you should 0:05:01.480 --> 0:05:04.440 look in He named a silicone ring here, he says 0:05:04.800 --> 0:05:08.320 the ring he wears, and he's got a physical job. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:13.679 He says at the watermeter pit he could easily lose 0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.320 his real wedding man. So he says they run twenty 0:05:16.320 --> 0:05:20.640 to twenty five dollars each and are durable, and he 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.360 says he's had his for three years. Uh. He also 0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:27.680 mentioned the incredible Hulk toe nail situation. He says, how 0:05:27.760 --> 0:05:31.280 is your toe nail holding up? Not good? Um? My 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:35.520 toe is fine. It just looks really nasty, and I 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:37.880 feel bad when any time I walk by kids and 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.000 they look at my tone. Said, boy, I don't want 0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:41.920 to be like that guy when I get older. You 0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.080 should have showed that to the t s A agents 0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:46.200 in the back room. Yeah yeah, hey, yeah, you wanna 0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.279 mess with me? I got a magical toe. I'll give 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:51.720 you that toe. You want to pat me down into 0:05:51.800 --> 0:05:55.240 a body frisk Yeah, make sure you touch my orange 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.800 toe from the goo that's coming out of where the 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.960 nail used to be. Adrian also says, my Bronco orange 0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:05.680 number three Russell Wilson Home Jersey finally arrived. I see 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:09.320 it there and now he's got his kids. I like 0:06:09.400 --> 0:06:12.120 the hat. I love you can't see this, Danny. But 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:15.760 he's got the old Bronco hat, the old Bronco logo, 0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.200 which you know I like. I'm I'm not a Bronco fan, 0:06:19.279 --> 0:06:21.520 and you certainly aren't your a Raider fan, but I 0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:25.560 like that logo. Old school one, great old school drop 0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:27.520 I found. I think his name was Hector. Do you 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:32.279 remember cool Dolup Broncos lost? Yo, Yes, that was a 0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:38.599 good one to us, that one. Yeah, cool Broncos lost, 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:43.240 he says. The Orange and Blue Wrecking Crew headed to 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:46.080 l A for the holiday. Oh, that's right, Broncos and 0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:49.839 Rams on Christmas Day. Look at that. I have to 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.400 go to that game. That would mean I have to 0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.080 get out of family engagements. I don't know if that 0:06:54.080 --> 0:06:56.560 will be allowed. Uh, says ps. I was cracking up 0:06:56.560 --> 0:06:59.719 at the best of Fifth Hour podcast is past weekend. 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:04.880 Shout out to Danny G the microphone Throttler for putting 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:09.840 those together. He enjoyed that. Uh, and you did did 0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:12.240 a fine job on that, putting all those hides. Now 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.120 we are we fully out of material. So if I 0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:16.640 take any more time off, there's no more material that 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:18.880 we can't do that kind of thing anymore. I could 0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:22.160 maybe scrape up one more episode like that. Alright, So 0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:26.080 twenty years at Fox Puts Radio, we've got four podcasts 0:07:26.080 --> 0:07:29.080 and material. Yeah, I mean each one was about forty 0:07:29.120 --> 0:07:32.800 minutes long, so do the math. I mean. It was 0:07:32.960 --> 0:07:35.320 cool though, to find that many old clips of you 0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:40.000 and your voice changed as the years went on. Well, 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:43.640 you became very manly, but you sounded like a teenager 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:46.880 at the beginning, very masculine life. Life kicked me in 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:49.240 the nuts a few times. And then royals on the road, 0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:54.080 aren't Ben Miller. I don't need to bring that royals 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:59.880 having their problems on the road. I'm Ben Mallock. All right, 0:08:00.240 --> 0:08:02.920 come back, pay at touching. It's time from me. I'll 0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:08.160 call all right. Next up we go to Let's see 0:08:08.160 --> 0:08:12.600 here says boys one moment making the Sunday Mailbag magic 0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:17.960 happen again, Ben, welcome back. A few comments. So this 0:08:18.040 --> 0:08:21.440 is I believe from our favorite couple, Helen and Stu 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:25.480 in Palmetto Bay, Florida. Uh And they say a few 0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:29.280 a few comments a Ben Mallow show, fill in observations 0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.040 while you were on vacation, any question for both you 0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:39.480 and Danny J. First came suffrage. First came suffrage then 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:43.520 came the Montana, white sheet wearing woman of the k 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:49.400 k K. Wow. That's right, Danny, g fire up the 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:56.319 racist drop, as Helen says, here, we're going there first 0:08:56.440 --> 0:08:59.839 a few weeks ago. A few weeks ago, was it 0:09:00.200 --> 0:09:04.320 black hole or black hole that Tammy and Montana was 0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:09.480 referring to her anger issues and mental illness aside? We 0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:13.839 have no time for her deep rooted racism to Wow, 0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:19.079 Dammy's racist. Uh, the email continues, We're putting that p 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:24.360 one horsehead out to pasture. Wow. Helen is vicious, vicious 0:09:24.360 --> 0:09:28.360 with these emails. Uh, email continues Ben. On a personal note, 0:09:28.920 --> 0:09:32.040 we can always make more money, but we can't make 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:35.480 more time. We wish you and your equally hard working 0:09:35.480 --> 0:09:39.280 wife would have taken an extra week for yourselves. Well 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:43.000 that's very kind, Helen, and you are correct. That's one 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:45.800 of the things that I've learned over my life as 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:50.120 I have lost a number of relatives and my parents 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:53.560 and whatnot, that that's the thing. Like you money. You know, 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:54.800 you have a lot of moneys. Great to have a 0:09:54.840 --> 0:09:56.600 lot of money. You want to, like certainly a little 0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.320 better life. But the one thing that you can't put 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.400 a price tag on at his time, and you have 0:10:01.440 --> 0:10:03.960 no idea how much of it you have, how much 0:10:04.000 --> 0:10:07.280 you've used, how much is left. And so I I 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:09.559 agree with you on that, but I like to work, 0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:12.320 and I live in a great place. I live in 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:16.040 a good location in the north Woods here, and traveling 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:19.600 is expensive. So those are all the variables involved in that. 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:24.800 Helen says, breaking news, the worst NFL decision ever by 0:10:24.920 --> 0:10:29.760 Fox and Rupert murrach Uh, He says, not resigning Aikman 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:35.280 and Buck, but giving the colorless and lifeless Tom Brady 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:39.360 three hundred seventy million over ten years, more than Aikman 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:44.000 and Buck combined per year at ESPN. Says Helen, I 0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.320 did a monologue about this the other night, Danny. I 0:10:47.400 --> 0:10:49.960 do not believe Brady is gonna be very good. I'm good. 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.240 I'm not like upset that he got the money. Good 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:55.520 for him, he got the money, but it just continues 0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:59.120 the jock occracy. We'll see how this works out. Uh. 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.360 Brady brings a lot of revenue in because he's a 0:11:02.360 --> 0:11:07.520 big name, and even at three five million, I'm pretty 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:11.520 confident the beancounters at Fox have done a cost benefit 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.560 analysis and determined they're still going to make money on 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:19.120 that contract. Yeah, I think he'll do okay, and he's 0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:22.079 going to be more of an ambassador than anything he 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:24.800 was entertaining. Although there was some production value to it. 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:30.360 Remember the balls song we used to play. Oh yeah, 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:33.720 I didn't touch those balls. I didn't. And somebody put 0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:37.040 together the whole montage of the balls and use the 0:11:37.840 --> 0:11:41.000 tea pain the effects on it. So I'll insert that 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.920 right here. Some guys like a round and some guys 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:54.520 like a vantage. Guys like, to me, those are all 0:11:54.640 --> 0:12:09.400 perfect to meet the perfect. You got a feelings, you know, 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:17.160 I grab it, I grab it perfect. Those things up 0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:21.760 because it throws up and block them away. Balls perfect, 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:29.000 like I said, I had. Nope, yeah, ah, some good 0:12:29.000 --> 0:12:32.360 balls memories there. But that was one of the fun 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:36.760 scandals that we got to that dissect there. How many monologues? 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:40.000 How many ball monologues did you do? Oh? It was great. 0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.599 I was using all different ball analogies. I was wonderful. 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.840 It was so great, so glorious. I used that we 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:49.880 needed were juggling like eight different balls. It was a 0:12:49.920 --> 0:12:53.000 lot I was. I was holding ball, touching balls, you name. 0:12:53.040 --> 0:12:56.640 It had a lot of balls. Anyway, Uh, the email continuously, 0:12:56.760 --> 0:13:00.760 very lengthy, very lengthy message from our friend Ellen and Stu, 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:04.480 both our friends there in Palmetto Bay, Florida. She says, Now, 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:06.840 as Warner Wolf would say, let's go to the Ben 0:13:06.880 --> 0:13:10.679 Mallers show. Fill in audio tape. She's not a fan 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:15.199 here of Chris Plane, she says, or as we refer 0:13:15.320 --> 0:13:19.559 to him as Vladimir Gluten. Wow. One out of ten, 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:23.000 Brian No. Five out of ten on the Helen and 0:13:23.160 --> 0:13:27.560 Stu scale, says the best drop of the week maybe 0:13:27.600 --> 0:13:31.280 the year Eddie Garcia and to Brian know I'm here 0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:35.559 every night, You're just a visitor. Wow did they say that? 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:41.480 I don't know. How about shut up man Moncy? Helen 0:13:41.760 --> 0:13:45.679 not a fan of Monsey. Uh, took a shot at 0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:50.360 her man her scorecard. Yeah, she's breaking down all the 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:53.200 people that have been on the show. I thought Monsey 0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:55.880 did a good job. It is one of those things though, 0:13:56.559 --> 0:14:01.240 on sports talk radio, like put a email on sports 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:04.680 talk radio and there's either people that love it or 0:14:04.880 --> 0:14:08.640 can't stand it, and there's very few people in the middle. Yeah, 0:14:08.679 --> 0:14:11.400 and most women are caddy, so they actually don't like 0:14:11.559 --> 0:14:15.720 hearing women on sports talk which is interesting. It is odd, 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:18.160 but then you have like the creepy guys that hear 0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:21.040 a female on sports radio and want to sleep with 0:14:21.120 --> 0:14:24.120 them and think, you know, that's always a and in 0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:28.600 their imagination that said woman wants them of course, wants 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.720 of creepy tweets to follow. I feel bad for the 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:33.920 ladies here now. You you know, getting attention is good 0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:36.680 to a point. But I worked with Karen Kay and 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:40.480 kk would get these really wild prison letters from dudes 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:42.880 that were in the in the jail for like murder ands, 0:14:43.000 --> 0:14:46.440 wild stuff, and they were all they really loved k 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:51.360 big fans of her work. Boys. In closing, will Tom 0:14:51.400 --> 0:14:56.520 Bady be the next horrible Joe Montana in the broadcast booth? 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.200 I don't think he's gonna last ten years. I believe 0:15:01.240 --> 0:15:04.320 that's not gonna happen, but he will last more than 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:07.640 Joe Montana. Montana lasted nine games and some playoff games, 0:15:08.520 --> 0:15:11.760 nine games and some playoff games and then quit over 0:15:11.760 --> 0:15:16.400 at NBC and the email sign never from nags Head, 0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:21.320 North Carolina, Helen and Stu Palmetto Bay, Florida. Okay, I 0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:25.600 think Brady will be Okay. You've seen his personality blossom 0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:29.720 since he left the Patriots, regime, and he's been more 0:15:29.800 --> 0:15:33.280 likable to a point. Yeah, but the problem in Howard 0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:35.920 co Sell with the term jock ocracy, he brought this up. 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.600 The problem is these guys are part of a fraternity, 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:40.920 and to be truly great, you've got to step on 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.840 some toes. You've got to rip certain people and tell 0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:47.600 stories that that old line, what happens in the locker 0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:49.600 room stays in the locker room, what happens in Vegas 0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:51.680 stays and things. You gotta tell some of those stories. 0:15:51.920 --> 0:15:54.520 The reason, part of the reason Charles Barkley is so 0:15:54.600 --> 0:15:58.720 great is he's willing to press the boundaries and he 0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:02.160 doesn't give a crap. Well, maybe Brady will surprise everybody 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:04.240 and do a little bit of that. I wonder how 0:16:04.240 --> 0:16:06.800 I set Peyton Manning is that Peyton's got a lot 0:16:06.800 --> 0:16:08.840 of money, But that could have been him, right, that 0:16:08.840 --> 0:16:12.320 could have been Peyton Manning getting that contract, cut that meat. 0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.800 They should put Gronk on the sideline, by the way, 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:20.720 in the Gronkmobile, the gronckmobile. Well, he's he's got a 0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:23.360 job lined up for him. It is odd that Tom 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:24.960 Brady is getting to do normally, you have to play 0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.160 for the Cowboys, to get this kind of deal, right 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:29.960 is isn't that normally how this works? What a brilliant movie. 0:16:30.000 --> 0:16:31.960 I did say that I would give Fox management credit. 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:35.200 They wanted Brady. Every network wanted Brady. And when they 0:16:35.280 --> 0:16:38.560 let Aikman and Buck leave, people were like, what are 0:16:38.560 --> 0:16:41.840 they doing? I can't believe it. I can't believe they 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:45.560 let Aikman and and Buck leave and trade back essentially 0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:48.640 the ESPN. But they must have had some kind of 0:16:48.680 --> 0:16:50.720 inkling that Brady was going to agree to a deal 0:16:50.760 --> 0:16:54.520 to join them, and so they essentially blocked ESPN out 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:58.000 from getting Tom Brady. Because ESPN has spent all the 0:16:58.040 --> 0:17:01.120 money on Aikman and Buck, there was no seat for 0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:06.919 Tom Brady. It was a brilliant move. If that's you know, 0:17:06.920 --> 0:17:08.840 it's not really my cup of you know what, But 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:14.359 for them that was wonderful. Yes, we do. Ozzy momentum 0:17:14.440 --> 0:17:17.960 rights in he says, good day, lads. A few questions 0:17:18.000 --> 0:17:20.480 for you. If you were in the military, what branch 0:17:20.560 --> 0:17:23.280 would you want to be in? Yeah? So the the 0:17:23.320 --> 0:17:27.400 answer here, Uh, from a logistical standpoint, I would say 0:17:27.440 --> 0:17:31.040 the coast Guard would be the way to go. If 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.439 I was smaller and I could fit in a like 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.560 a fighter jet. I would say the uh, the air 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:43.080 Force would be cool, but I I can't. And I've 0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:46.480 had a lot of friends who are Marines who say 0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:49.320 they do not like the army, and I know vice versa. 0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:52.399 So I guess army would be higher up on the list. 0:17:52.440 --> 0:17:54.159 What about you, daddy, if you had you going to 0:17:54.160 --> 0:17:56.679 the military, what branch would you be? I went coast 0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:59.560 Guard with a winket and nod to several other branches 0:17:59.560 --> 0:18:01.720 in the middle. Rry, what about you? I guess I 0:18:01.720 --> 0:18:04.880 would follow in my grandfather's footsteps. He was a high 0:18:05.000 --> 0:18:08.520 ranking Army back in the day for World War Two. 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:11.520 On the way he worked his way up, he put 0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:16.120 out fires, so he was on their firefighting squad, which 0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:19.640 was kind of cool. But any down plane or chopper 0:18:20.119 --> 0:18:22.360 him and his crew had to put those fires out. 0:18:22.760 --> 0:18:25.280 So he saw a lot of ship for sure. He 0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:28.879 came back pretty messed up. Um, But like you said, 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:31.359 it would be nice flying a jet. We grew up 0:18:31.359 --> 0:18:34.480 with the movie Top Gun, and all of us after 0:18:34.520 --> 0:18:39.280 that were like, be the best of the best. Wasn't 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:42.399 there another Top Gun movie that's coming out? Yeah? They 0:18:42.480 --> 0:18:46.680 didn't laying it forever because of Covid. Okay, it was 0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.119 supposed to come out a couple of years ago, and 0:18:49.200 --> 0:18:51.920 I did see a trailer. I guess it's coming out. Yeah, 0:18:52.040 --> 0:18:56.000 I think it's coming out soon. I saw some billboards 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:58.680 for it, so that that usually means within a month 0:18:58.760 --> 0:19:01.240 or two it's coming out. But but who in the summertimes? 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:03.879 Before you know it, it's gonna be the summer movie rush, 0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:07.080 all right. Another question from Ozzy Momentum. He says, if 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:09.760 the apocalypse comes, where would you want to run and hide? 0:19:11.520 --> 0:19:14.440 I think Australia might be good, although after all these 0:19:14.480 --> 0:19:16.800 lockdowns recently, I don't know about Australia. Is there some 0:19:16.880 --> 0:19:19.640 kind of weird island out in the middle? What about Guam? 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:22.679 Could I go to Guam? Would that be okay? We 0:19:22.760 --> 0:19:26.320 talked about hiding in Costa Rica. Yeah, Costa Rica would 0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:29.000 not be bad. And by the way, you're right, I 0:19:29.080 --> 0:19:33.000 just looked it up. That Maverick movie coming out may 0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:36.480 no good? So the end of the one yeah, all right? Cool. 0:19:37.040 --> 0:19:39.399 One more from Ozzi Momentum says, what's the difference between 0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:44.400 Tammy and Montana and a truck stop prostitute? Ozzy Momentum says, 0:19:44.480 --> 0:19:47.960 the prostitute can claim condoms as a working expense. Wow, 0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:53.720 Ozzy Momentum says, I stand with Helen and Stu. Now 0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:57.800 that's a plot twist, Ozzy Momentum on team Helen and Stu. 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:02.959 And now there are there warring factions among the Mallard 0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:09.560 militia here, Danny G. Warring factions? Wow today, Mike, alright, 0:20:09.840 --> 0:20:13.240 what is next here? Let's keep the fun going here? 0:20:13.320 --> 0:20:18.560 And that's right, I got mail, Yeah, I got mail. Yeah. 0:20:19.520 --> 0:20:22.359 Kevin in Kansas writes into the mail bag on the 0:20:22.400 --> 0:20:24.800 fifth hour, says, dear Ben and Danny G. I very 0:20:24.840 --> 0:20:29.800 much enjoyed the podcast last week, the Trips down Memory Lane. 0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:32.600 That's right all, Danny G. On that, he said, I'd 0:20:32.680 --> 0:20:35.600 never heard the recording of Coop and the Hot Dogs. 0:20:36.240 --> 0:20:38.320 I was laughing hard at first, and then I was 0:20:38.400 --> 0:20:42.800 nearly gagging. How how did that bit not win a Marconi? 0:20:43.680 --> 0:20:47.960 And did Coop suffer any later effects? Now, Coop it 0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:52.320 was all right, and remember though he had some green 0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:57.960 relish coming out of his nose. Oh yeah, that was yeah. 0:20:58.359 --> 0:21:01.679 The Marconi thing. Yeah, to submit the Marconi you have 0:21:01.760 --> 0:21:05.360 to where we didn't submit it. It's hard to win 0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:08.840 if you don't submit it. Can you submit it retroactively? 0:21:09.800 --> 0:21:12.359 I don't know the rules, I I do. I do 0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:16.560 realize from previous conversations with Alf the alienal Pinter, who 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:18.760 was desperately trying to get me to win a Marconi 0:21:19.359 --> 0:21:21.600 that somebody has to submit it by a certain date. 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:25.639 There's a lot of red tape at that, and I 0:21:25.640 --> 0:21:29.040 don't like dealing with red tape. No. I remember our 0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:33.960 company sending me emails because they gave some audio to 0:21:34.080 --> 0:21:38.760 the Marconi board for Clay Travis back in the day. Okay, 0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:42.359 and so I had to chop up audio from certain 0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:44.320 shows where there was a lot of laughter and some 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:48.439 of his better moments on the air, and they submitted it. 0:21:48.480 --> 0:21:51.479 But you're right there was a cutoff date. Yeah. And 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:55.480 I can assure you, Kevin, that the company will not 0:21:55.640 --> 0:21:59.040 be submitting any of my content for a Marconi award, 0:21:59.119 --> 0:22:02.560 So you don't worry about talk alright. Next up on 0:22:02.640 --> 0:22:05.880 the mail bag, on the back and back and back 0:22:05.920 --> 0:22:07.960 and back and bag and bagging. I think, is that 0:22:08.000 --> 0:22:09.640 how Farrell used to do it back in the day, 0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:13.000 something thinks, But then he would take a shot. Yeah, 0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:17.160 I don't have any alcohol here, Mike, and Fullerton says, hey, Ben, 0:22:17.240 --> 0:22:20.000 thanks for the story about ripping your toenail off. A 0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:23.000 couple weeks ago. My dad was born with messed up 0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:25.920 toenails that he passed onto a few of my siblings, 0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:28.800 but luckily not me. My question for both of you, 0:22:29.280 --> 0:22:32.720 if you were single, would you date a girl with 0:22:32.960 --> 0:22:37.639 really ugly feet or would that be a deal breaker? Alright, So, 0:22:37.720 --> 0:22:43.200 first of all, Mike, I'm not foot obsessed, and I 0:22:43.240 --> 0:22:47.520 feel if you were to do a checklist of things 0:22:47.560 --> 0:22:54.159 you could work around, bad feet is pretty high on that. Okay, 0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:58.760 it's fine because they have these things called socks, Danny, right. 0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:01.320 I mean, if if a young lady is just you know, 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:05.560 she's beautiful in every way other than her feet, who 0:23:05.600 --> 0:23:08.520 the hell cares? Just make sure she keeps the socks on. 0:23:08.840 --> 0:23:11.800 You're good to go, right, that's the trick. How are 0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:15.439 you gonna make sure she doesn't wear some chalk gloves 0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.679 or some flip flops? Because there are some women with 0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:21.400 some pretty beat up feet, But yet they let them 0:23:21.440 --> 0:23:23.400 breathe and they let him out there for the whole 0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:26.160 world to see. Now, you gotta know what you got 0:23:26.200 --> 0:23:28.760 and what you don't have. Like I I know, I 0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:31.440 I should be covered at all times. I don't have 0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:36.040 I'm not built like a Donnis, so I cover up. 0:23:36.600 --> 0:23:40.560 I'm absolutely naked right now. But if if your feet 0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:43.520 or your weak link, if that's your kryptonite, then just 0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:47.120 you to work with, you to work with. How would 0:23:47.160 --> 0:23:50.359 you nicely tell her though, that she has Chewbacca feet? 0:23:50.760 --> 0:23:53.320 I would just if she kept bringing sandals to the house, 0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:56.880 I would just throw them away. So, and I don't 0:23:56.880 --> 0:23:59.360 know what happened. Somebody must be taking your sandals. Oh 0:23:59.400 --> 0:24:02.480 that's right, it's the trash man. The trash man is 0:24:02.520 --> 0:24:06.880 taking your sandals. Anyway, all right, what is next here? 0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:12.240 Let's see you? Uh, let's over that al right, william writes, 0:24:12.320 --> 0:24:14.960 and he says, hello, Benn, did you go to a 0:24:15.160 --> 0:24:20.600 Timber Rattlers game? Went in Appleton next to us? Sarrios. 0:24:21.359 --> 0:24:24.000 I go to that restaurant on the way to the stadium. 0:24:24.040 --> 0:24:25.920
