But here in our number one, it's all about that
Whack a Noodle Thursday Night game. Thumbs up or thumbs
down on Zach Taylor's Bengals decision.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
To go for the win at the end of regulation.
It did not work.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Did the Zebras help the Ravens out and hurt the
Cincinnati football team? Are the the Joe Burrow Bengals playoff
chances over now? And where is Lamar Jackson in the
NFL pecking order after another brilliant four touchdown performance? And
do you trust John Harbaughs Ravens down the line in
(01:44):
the playoffs? We'll get to all that and more right
now here it is our one.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Down to the final minute.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Well, come in not beginning of another night of the
Ben Malord Show.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
We are in the airmywhere.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
In collaboration as we provide handcrafted quality.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
That you can hear in every.

ti raq dot Com The Way Tire Buying show be
so our lead this hour.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Poetry in motion, right.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We'll start out in the charm City Week ten, kicking
off on a random Thursday night in early November, and
Al Michaels and Kirk Herb Street there they were enjoying
crabcakes in Maryland on the Amazon Prime dime.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And running up the expense account.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Now you had big name quarterbacks matching up in this game,
a mismatch based on the records as the Ravens one
of the top teams in the NFL, Cincinnati not not
very good record wise. But I don't know if you saw
the game or not. Maybe you have no idea how
to watch games on Amazon.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I don't know. It seems like most people I know
have Amazon, but maybe you don't.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
So in the game, Lamar Jackson had not one, not two,
not three, but four touchdown passes. The game actually played
out the way I thought it would play out, and
most people did it was a shootout where Cincinnati came out.
They had a big lead early. The Ravens came back.
Lamar threw three of the four touchdown passes in the
fourth quarter, but it came down to the bitter end
(04:10):
because Baltimore could not stop Joe Burrow from driving all
the way down matriculating the ball down into the end
zone in the final seconds, and there were thirty eight
seconds remaining when they got into the end zone and
they were down by one. You make the call, right,
you're down thirty five thirty four? Do you go for
(04:33):
the two point conversion?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
One?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Play the ball in the hand of Joe Burrow. Now,
it's not guaranteed you're going to win. There's no guarantee
you're going to win the game. But do you make
the call you go for it, or do you kick
the extra point and play to overtime.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well, the Bengals decided.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
You know, we're going to go for it on the
two point conversion play and they were stonewalled with some
help from the referees on that play, Baltimore able to
ben the rules twice on that play. They got away
with at least two penalties that were not called. The
Ravens get to win their seven to three. They rallied
from down two touchdowns in the third quarter, and they
(05:12):
overcame a mammoth performance one of the great stat lines
you'll see from a wide receiver in the NFL in
any year, Jamar Chase, who finished with eleven catches for
two hundred and sixty four yards, verifying that Baltimore does
not have a championship defense and that they're frauds three touchdowns,
(05:35):
including a five yarder in the final minute that brought
the Bengals within one but did not get to win.
The better story is in the losing locker room. So
Cincinnati has now lost to Baltimore again. They also overtime
last month, so two losses. They're done playing the Ravens.
But the losses decided because this loss decided because they
(05:59):
decided to go for two and the lead and Joe
Burrow his pass attempt to Tanner Hudson sailed.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
High, which did not work.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
There was a penalty that would have could have should
have been called, but was not called in the end.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
And the head coach.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Of the Cincinnati football team is a guy named Zach Taylor.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And here is Zach Taylor.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Who says that he's got an illness after watching what
happened at the end of the game.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
There was a good football team, but we expect to
come in here and win, and we did everything we
could do. That doesn't change the fact that I'm proud.
I think everybody on that field fought, gave us a chance,
Hustin came on the road to a good team, and
it's sickening that this has happened twice to us.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah, takes some medicine. What do you want it? All? Right?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
And here's Zach Taylor going into the bag of cliches
to sum up the mindset of his football team.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
We got to find a way to close out these games.
You know, we had our opportunity. We got down there,
went for two and just didn't work out for us.
This team's going to continue to put us in good positions,
and there's going to be a pointing the season where
that turns and we'll respond the right way from this game.
If you got a one game season next week against
the Chargers for the buye and so we'll get our
bodies right and get ready to go fight them.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Okay, so let us discuss.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Let's get right to the point of the matter, the
final play of the game. Thumbs up or thumbs down
on Zach Taylor's decision to go for the.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Win at the end of regulation.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
So I've got Wayne Gretzky, electoral college, and soft underbelly,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to lolly gag around, which is what
the Ravens defense did for much of that game. And Cincinnati.
But Cincinnati's not a championship level team this year, so
hey to answer the question, Thumbs up thumbs down on
(07:47):
the Bengals decision to go for it at the end
of regulation. I'm going thumbs up. In real time, I'm
watching it.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Go for it. You got Joe Burrow, You've got Jamar Chase.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
You're going against a terrible defense in Cincinnati or Baltimore.
Against that Cincinnati offense, they couldn't stop him at all
for most of that game, So I might go for it. Now,
that didn't guarantee you're gonna win the game. That just
guaranteed that you'd force the Ravens to kick a field
goal with Tucker, who hasn't been mister reliable so far
(08:18):
this season. So last week we saw it not one,
not two, not three, but four teams who had a
chance to go for the win at the end of regulation.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
They scored much like this game. They scored touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Late in the game, and all four of them decided
to go for the point after touchdown rather than the
two point conversion. They played for overtime rather than the win,
and all four of those teams lost. So the way
I look at this, and I'm not second guessing it,
I said it and it didn't work out, I would
still have made the same decision. I would have made
(08:50):
the same exact decisions like that old Walker Brothers tune
No regrets.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
And as Wayne Gretzky.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Famously said, you miss one hundred percent of the shots
you do not take. And there is a dimension where
Cincinnati kicks the extra point, they go to overtime, the
Ravens win the coin toss, Lamar Jackson runs the ball
down the field, shoves it down their throat, scores a touchdown.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
You never even get the.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Ball, but you've got to shoot your shot in that spot.
If Joe Burrow is as good as I think he is,
and the perception is I would rather have one play
conceivably to win the game doesn't guarantee you win, but
puts you in a great spot. Now, did the Zebras
help the Ravens out? And the way I would answer
(09:35):
that is does the Pope pray?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Yes? Of course you're nodding your head.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
These refs turned into blind Scott, Inka Terror, and blind Emmett.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
At the end of that game.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Two penalties, at least two penalties on the Baltimore football team.
You had defensive holding, you had an illegal hit to
Joe Burrow. But at that moment the referees, they said,
pretend we're in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's NBA style.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
They turned into Sergeant Schultz from that old show Hogan zeiros.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I see nothing, I know nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
We're gonna swallow the whistle, let the players decide the game.
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. It reminds me
of what we often see in the Super Bowl. And
one of my favorite stories since I've been doing this
goes back to the Patriot days with Bill Belichick early
on when they were playing a much quicker Rams team,
(10:30):
and the legend is that Bill Belichick told the Patriot
defensive backs to hold the quicker Ram players the Saint
Louis Ram players the greater show on Turf because they
won't call it in the Super Bowl. And even if
they call it a couple of times, they're not gonna
call it every time because it would sully the game.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
And it worked.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Patriots were able to hold down the Rams and they
were able to win that game. And here at the
end of the game, Baltimore got away with it. They
totally got it. Multiple penalties, the NFL look the other way,
no booth review, No, well, hey, on second hand, let's
look at that one more time, and yeah, there's a penalty.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Now they let them play all right now? Page two?
Are the Joe Burrow Bengals cooked? What are their playoff chances? Overall?
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Now?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Are they over?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Is it done? Is this it for the Bengals? So
I wouldn't say that they're done. I think that's too dramatic.
I don't think they're cooked. But believe it or not, Cincinnati,
they're four and six, and I've done the Malord math,
and there is a path to the playoffs even at
four and six. If you look at the electoral College,
if you look at the map here on my Telestrader,
(11:42):
here the top seven teams in each conference get in
the playoffs. So if you look at it right now,
Denver is the last team in.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
They're five and four.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Now they play in Kansas City, a game I'll be
at on Sunday at Arrowhead, which is more likely.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Than not a loss. Is it a close loss? Probably?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
But a loss for the Broncos this weekend, So that'll
be lost number five. So you're still if you're the Bengals,
you're one behind.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Denver.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
But there's a gridlock at the bottom. The Colts are
in that mix. There's a lot of teams that are
very similar, and so it's more likely than not that
to get in the playoffs, all you have to do
is find a way to get to eight or nine wins.
We can see a team under five hundred get in
the playoffs this season. So Cincinnati, it doesn't seem like
(12:36):
they belong. But if they can pull an upset against
the Chargers, they can get right back in the mix. Now,
if they lose to the Chargers, the math on the
electoral college gets a little tougher.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
But since he for now is still alive, makes no
sense that they're alive. But they're alive, all right, last word.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Where is Lamar Jackson after another masterpiece performance?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Where is he in the NFL pecking order?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
So Lamar's not the top quarterback in the NFL, that's
Patrick Mahomes, but he's sitting in the penthouse suite right now.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
He's the MVP favorite.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
And another domination situation. Lamar is in the pole position
for the MVP. Now, another question that popped into my
head here, do you trust John Harbaugh's Ravens in the playoffs? Now,
they've got a great record. You look at the overall
picture and things are just great. They're just absolutely great.
(13:36):
For the Baltimore Ravens. Right now, they got off to
that dreadful start. They lost their first first game of
the year to Kansas City the little toe tap at
the end of the game, and that was bad and
you're like, oh man, that that's not good. Then they
lost to the Raiders, which is a bad beat. But
since then, since then they are seven and one and
they somehow lost to the Cleveland Browns, so they're capable
(13:59):
of losing to anybody. However, I don't trust them. That's
not a championship defense that the Ravens have. And you've
also got another problem. Playoff, Lamar, playoff, Lamar. That defense
is the soft underbelly. But Lamar Jackson has.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Been kryptonite in the plus.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The Bengals, though without t Higgins, had twenty seven first
downs and almost five hundred yards of offense, and they
had no running game. The running game was those little
dump off passes. They were fifty percent on third down.
They were three for three hundred percent in the red zone.
The Ravens were sloppy. They had all these penalties. Now
(14:39):
Lamar Jackson bailed them out, but it is not a
sustainable formula when we get down to the playoffs. It's
just I mean, it's just not you know it. I
know it, and the Ravens know it. And that's just
the way it is.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
All right. It is the Ben.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Mahlor Show as we are yapping all night long, as
we're sliding into a Friday and tomorrow is the Malord
Meet and Greet in can City. So if you're one
of our listeners on our affiliate, the Fan in Kansas City,

Speaker 1 (15:33):

Able to make it out there, if you're in the area,
come on down and we'll have a great time, unless
we don't.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
And if we don't, I'm gonna blame Eddie. All Right,
Hot Mike Fun, Hot Mike Fun.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
And what does that mean, Hot Mike Fun. Well, I'll explain.
You might know where I'm going with this, but maybe not.
We'll get to that and we will do it.
Speaker 1 (16:00):

Radio Studios.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Rolling on all night.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
We got lame jokes of the week that'll be coming
up a little bit later. Yeah, whether you like it
or not, talking about that Thursday night NFL game as
it goes the way of the Baltimore football team Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I liked that they went for it. It's nice.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
It's also a byproduct of what happened last week week
with four coaches saying, Ahn, we're gonna play for overtime
in all four losing, Like why not shoot your shot?
The Baltimore Ravens defense is terrible, right, It's just brutal.
And now the Cincinnati defense also stinks, so it's it's
(17:20):
equally bad on both sides. But in the end, the
Ravens make the play with a little help from their
friends the referees, and they they get the victory there.
And so we're talking about that and reacting to everything
and that happen, and take your calls coming up here
in a moment eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
(17:40):
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six
nine and Brian Wrights in says the Mallard iced out
bling now being emulated by NFL and college teams. Yeah,
well it is true, Brian, as you know. And then
you've been listening to shit for a long time. And
when we have a great show, I wear the victory
(18:03):
bling is what I put on there, and I've been
doing it fancy.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yeah, it's some jewelry shop over in Beverly Hills and
I put that on. Like when I really nail a
monologue and it's Marconi worthy, I'll put the bling bling
on And that's that's my move. Late night drug testers
is I think that even with thirty eight seconds, the
Ravens would have pulled it off.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Tucker is due to turn it around.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So you're doing the do do the do right, He's
due to turn He's been pretty mediocre for like a
year and a half.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Am I wrong on that? Is that? A?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
I feel like the last the year he has not
been good and probably longer than that for Tucky, he
missed a point after touchdown after the Ravens had an
eighty four yard touchdown, which was mostly just incompetence. There
were mattadors on the Cincinnati defense. Oh le O Leo
Leole as they tried to tackle someone named Tylan Wallace.
(19:02):
I'm not sure who that is, but he ran down
the sidelines like a ballerina and got in the end
zone on that touchdown.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And man, that was.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
But Tucker has not been not been good. And you
get to the point now you like, he's had a
great run, you know, and as a kicker, so you
say he'll go on forever.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
He's in his mid thirties.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
He's been there for almost well, he's been there over
ten years, closer probably to fifteen years than ten at
this particular point for Justin Tucker with the Ravens.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Who else do we Let's see page down here, and
I can't read that one on the air.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Jason in can City, who did tell me he plans
on a tenning tomorrow's Malla Meet and greet says ten
out of ten on the Mally monologue Ben the Ben
gals should use some help from the officials, could use
some help for the officials. Also hurting them is the
fact that they missed Joe Mix not a character guy,
(20:02):
but a good running back.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
That's Jason. Yeah, and they didn't have any running game
at all.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
But as it was pointed out by Herbie Kirk Herbstreet
that they were able to use what the Patriots used
to do back in their day, where they would use
those short pass There's a lot of teams do it,
those little dump off passes, and so if you if
you look at the dump off pass combined with the
running game, then those little short passes the back Brown
(20:34):
he had nine, Well do you have nine catches for
fifty two yards forty two yards rushing? So that works
out to like ninety four yards rushing, because that's pretty
all those were like dump off passes, right, So that's
nineteen I think the biggest player was like seventeen yards
or something like that. So the math on that it
somewhat works out, I say somewhat, mass o'mickey says, I
(20:55):
did not hear a single word of your hour one monologue. However,
I'm sure it was fabulous. I look forward to hearing
it on the podcast. There you go, have a great time.
Any chance the Malla Militia could get a little sip
of what you're thinking of the game there, Kansas City
minus a nine and a half. Well, sure it's a
(21:18):
TV show, Massole Mickey. It's called Benny versus the Penny.
It has already started airing. We recorded on Thursdays and
then it starts airing on Thursday night, So you can
check that out on NBC Sports Boston and in San
Francisco and Philadelphia, a bunch of other places there, and also.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Later on today it'll be on on Peacock.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
And you kind of also already said what you thought
during the monologue.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
No, no, no, I did not. I didn't. My real
opinion will be on the TV show.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Spaccoli writes in says, Benjamin, I have done you a
great service. I have contacted the Landing and made sure
they have plenty of ranch dressing on hand for Saturday.
When you enjoy a savory basket of the mallard chicken fingers,
do not consider it an early Christmas present. Well, yeah,
wherever I am is a no ranch zwn I will
(22:06):
have a cone around me.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
No ranch, No, I really?
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Will you be bringing your own honey mustard just in case?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
No, I've talked to the people at the Landing and
they've been great, and they have honey mustard.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
There's the honey mustard. They have barbecue sauce.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
So the idea that ranch is The choice is just
a bad that's a bad thought.
Speaker 8 (22:28):
Okay, But I have a question, Ben, Have you done
ranch with top of teo in it?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I don't do the ranch. I don't want to drink
the devil's blood that.
Speaker 8 (22:38):
Is all the ranch?
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Like?
Speaker 8 (22:39):
Have you had trench?
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Ranch is discussed.
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Because Head Valley does taste like trash.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I don't watch anything to do with the ranch.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Okay, alf the alien opiner says, Hey, Mallard, I need
a favor. We are under a red flag warning and
have high fire danger here in the Commonwealth. I've done
my part by turning my radio down, but you please
keep your hottest takes to a minimum.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
I don't want now. I don't want any take take.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Any chances with you your takes causing a a fire. Well,
I do see the relative humidity as low as thirty
percent and National Weather Service issuing a red flag warning
and that's from eight am to six pm on.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Friday, but not what we're on. So I think we're
It's eight am two six pm, so yeah, it's during
the day, so I think we're okay.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
I don't think there'll be any Wait, this is a
wind warning.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Well, yeah, in the Commonwealth. There's a wind fire warning
high fire probability, and.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
We have that in this area too.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I believe, Well, there is a big fire that's burning, but.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
You know, the extra wind gives you know, more oxygen,
thus bigger flames.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Wow, scientific, you worked in the fire industry for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
You're a firefighter before we hired.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
You, I used to be a scientist, Ben, Really.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
What was your science of weed? Is that what you
were studying? I don't know. I'm just horticulture.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
I believe they call that.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Yeah, plans.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, let's see everybody in Vegas is I always hear
that people don't know how to watch the games on
Thursday night, but it's literally on Twitch for free?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Is that? Is that illegal?
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Though?
Speaker 8 (24:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Is who cares most? Most of you don't care.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Yeah, but you know, if you're of a certain age,
it's like Dick and Dayton has no idea how to
watch these games, you know, no no concept on the
Amazon and sometimes even in they're on the local station
in Dayton.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
He has no idea. He's just beyond him. There's there's
just nothing.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Cowboy Killer says, when is the mandated Christmas music going
to start?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (24:45):
Have an answer.
Speaker 7 (24:45):
No, let's let's not talk about this.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, usually it's right.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
At Thanksgiving, it's right after right after Thanksgiving night, it'll be.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
I was debating on teasing it though. Yeah, I've been
singing it in the studio. Oh haven't I I coop?
Haven't I coop?
Speaker 1 (25:02):
Yeah? All right, Lorena, listen what we do? Oh boy, Lorena.
We have a month, two months, well almost two months
of Christmas music we're gonna get because they go past
Christmas usually, So here's what we need. Okay, just hear
(25:23):
those like no zipit, Lorena.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
What we do to fight back against the corporate machine
is we have our own catalog of Mather themed holiday
music that has been curated by a large, cautible show.
We have a very I've been doing this a long time,
a lot of holiday song and anyone wants to send
in a holiday song, you can still submit them. We'll
play them. But we have a collection. Okay, it's in profit, dude,
(25:50):
it's in profit. It's in the system, it's in the archive.
So just you've got to play our song.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Can I play other songs too?
Speaker 1 (25:58):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:58):
No, we don't want the other thing. We want our
our songs to our spin on the holidays.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Now, when you're in your.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
Carl Lo arena or at home, you can play all
the Christmas music you want.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Yeah? Has coast in La started playing Christmas music?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Don't they usually do that, like right after the fourth
of July or something like that.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
I don't know, but I'm a feeling this is gonna
get ugly. It's not. There's no ugliness. There's no need
for it to get ugly. It's we have our music,
and our music is great. Our music is better than that.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Have you heard Mariah Carey a billion times?
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Yeah? Have you heard our friend from Flint, Michigan. Have
you heard Ohio Al? Have you heard our guy from Richmond?
I mean, these guys are great. You're laughing.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
But the guy, the dude in Flint, Michigan's he went
into a professional recording studio and put these songs together
and they're amazing.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
I'm telling you, they're great songs.
Speaker 8 (26:50):
I will play all the quality, I swear, Ben, You'll
be so festive. You'll be like, Wow, I'm gonna wear
my ugly Christmas sweater every day.
Speaker 7 (26:58):

So that's true.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Well that's your fault.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
But I sit on the back of a like a
fire truck and I'm Santa.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I wave at people and it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It's like it's like being a character at Disney, like
if I was Mickey Mouse for a day, or Goofy
walking around.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
I used to be the red Robin bird and I
saw him. I saw him roaming around them all the
other day and it was so nostalgic.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Jonas used to be Chuck e cheesey.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
Have you guys collaborated on a discussion about this.
Speaker 8 (27:35):
No, we have not masked got Wow yet.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
So Jonas and Lorena were both they were both furries
before it was cool.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
We were both a furry.
Speaker 8 (27:43):
But yeah, out on the sidewalk, baby, shake that tail feather.
Speaker 9 (27:46):
Why did you.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Make any bird noises while you were doing You did
not stop at your liar.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
That was that was the only way I'd go eat
there is if I saw you doing that.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
Thank yeah, man, I throw a bottomless French out into
the street, come and get it.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
You're not a Red Robin guy.
Speaker 7 (28:03):
You know, no, we went very sure. Are they still open?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah, they're still around.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I saw what's the restaurant chain that's going out of
business Fridays?
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, TGI Fridays, frash.
Speaker 7 (28:15):
I love those potato skins.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
There was a point in time they were like really popular. Yeah,
I remember that so long, I mean, and they were
open late and people liked.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
It, and I and a lot of the athletes would
go there because they were open late and they had
decent food. And that's a long time ago though. I
last time I was out of TGI Fridays, it was
so bad.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
That's like saying Hooters is popular still, Well.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Depends what part of the country are in, right, I
mean some parts were it's like, you know, pretty pretty popular.
Other parts now, So remember they had the Hooters Hotel
in Vegas.
Speaker 8 (28:46):
Yeah, yeah, oh my gosh, really yes, And then like
after it was like after midnight or one am with
wings were twenty five cents each wore the good old days.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
And one year they went out of business, the whole hotel,
but they were gonna send me and Looney there.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
We had a deal to go.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
To the Hooters Hotel every weekend to do our show

The friday before we were supposed to go for the
first time.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
They so the deal fell apart. And I don't remember why.

you to sell. Why is it hard for you to
sell stuff?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Because that you don't have access to where the people are,
because there's like a parking garage and there's a bridge

Speaker 1 (33:35):
So good Man's a legend sports talk radio calling legend.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
How can there could be a legend? The bar is
not high. The bar is not that high. Time Now
for the who am I?
Speaker 4 (33:47):
Game?
Speaker 1 (33:48):
This is where we pretend to be somebody else? That's
we call it the who Am I? Game?
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase had had his third two
hundred plus yard game before turning twenty five. That is
tied with Lance Alworth and me for the most in.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
NFL history since nineteen fifty.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Again, Bengals wide out Jamar Chase, who was all over
the field there against that crap bag Ravens defense, third
two hundred plus receiving yard game before turning twenty five.
That is tied with Lance Alworth and me for the
most in the NFL over the last seventy four seasons
(34:33):
since nineteen fifty.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Who am I the answer? We'll get to it. We
will do it next.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
I fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
You did see it.

We will pay off the who am I game in
a moment. If you missed the who am I? Game,
it's a bad job by you. I'll give it you
a ya. I give you some more time to try
to answer it. Bengals watch stever.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Jamar Chase has had his third two hundred plus.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Receiving yard game. Did it in the in dramatic fashion.
They lose though, the Bengals, so the Ravens third one
before turning twenty five. That is tied with Lance Alworth,
Bambi and me for the most in NFL history. That
goes back since nineteen fifty when they I guess they
have no stats before nineteen fifty. But that's the line
in the sand, and does anyone know the answer.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
We'll get to that in a minute.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I did want to mention we tease this the hot
mic fun from the NFL. So if you're watching on
the Amazon, you probably saw when the Ravens were losing,
the fans were getting a little upset. They were annoyed.
They're like, wait a minute, we don't usually lose to
good teams. The Ravens normally play like crap against bad
(36:18):
teams at home.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
That's always kind of been the way it's gone.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Fact, Lamar Jackson has a terrible record when favored by
a large amount of points at home. It's just an odd,
quirky thing. They don't live up to expectations. They win
most of those games, but they don't cover the number anyway.
So Amazon caught a fan, some random dude, this middle
aged guy wearing a Ravens long sleeved shirt and the
(36:42):
microphone was on the camera and turned on and the
fans said, come on, guys, you look like ass one
one thousand and two to one thousand holes.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Out out here. And then the Ravens punted it away.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Right after that, it was Outstaye and al Michaels paying
close attention new right away.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
What had been said, and they enjoyed that. They appeared
to enjoy that on the broadcast.
Speaker 2 (37:08):
It was entertaining just right there, big a hole, and
that inspired the Ravens.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
They were inspired to come back.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
They would not have won the game if a fan
had not called them a holes for the way they
were playing.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Time now again for the who am I? Game?
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chay said his third two hundred
plus receiving yard game before turning twenty five. That is
tied with Lance Alworth and me for the most in
NFL history. That goes back to nineteen fifty so modern
NFL history, if you will, let's see does.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Anyone know the answer?
Speaker 2 (37:40):
We go to the Hoy POLOI, the great Unwashed, and
see if anyone can give us the right answer.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
And who do we have?
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Charles Woodson guests by Freddie Sloth from the Goonies from
the Cowboy Kill.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
These are great guesses.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Chef Roberto barbecuing from his pool burner, Haywood Jefferies from
the Boilers, guessed by Malibu Rubin.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Who else do we have? Page down?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Rashek Caldwell from alf the Alien opiner O Cho Sinko,
Lorena's favorite wide Receiver from Eloy from Compton Air, Bud
the Golden Retriever from King Rory, Fatrick Mahomes from Masshole,
Mickey Ernest Beiner, the Redskins Legend from Spacoli. Andy from
(38:29):
Lionel Lake says you gotta have a fall guy, Chris Carter,
right quickly, Loraina, what say you, Lorena?
Speaker 8 (38:34):
I think it's Julia Childs Ben It's.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
A great answer.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
No, it's Isaac Bruce of the Greatest Show on Turf.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Isaac Bruce, the Saint Louis Royal Back
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:01):

But here in our number one, it's all about that
Whack a Noodle Thursday Night game. Thumbs up or thumbs
down on Zach Taylor's Bengals decision.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
To go for the win at the end of regulation.
It did not work.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Did the Zebras help the Ravens out and hurt the
Cincinnati football team? Are the the Joe Burrow Bengals playoff
chances over now? And where is Lamar Jackson in the
NFL pecking order after another brilliant four touchdown performance? And
do you trust John Harbaughs Ravens down the line in
(01:44):
the playoffs? We'll get to all that and more right
now here it is our one.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Down to the final minute.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
Well, come in not beginning of another night of the

so our lead this hour.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
Poetry in motion, right.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
We'll start out in the charm City Week ten, kicking
off on a random Thursday night in early November, and
Al Michaels and Kirk Herb Street there they were enjoying
crabcakes in Maryland on the Amazon Prime dime.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And running up the expense account.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Now you had big name quarterbacks matching up in this game,
a mismatch based on the records as the Ravens one
of the top teams in the NFL, Cincinnati not not
very good record wise. But I don't know if you saw
the game or not. Maybe you have no idea how
to watch games on Amazon.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
I don't know. It seems like most people I know
have Amazon, but maybe you don't.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
So in the game, Lamar Jackson had not one, not two,
not three, but four touchdown passes. The game actually played
out the way I thought it would play out, and
most people did it was a shootout where Cincinnati came out.
They had a big lead early. The Ravens came back.
Lamar threw three of the four touchdown passes in the
fourth quarter, but it came down to the bitter end
(04:10):
because Baltimore could not stop Joe Burrow from driving all
the way down matriculating the ball down into the end
zone in the final seconds, and there were thirty eight
seconds remaining when they got into the end zone and
they were down by one. You make the call, right,
you're down thirty five thirty four? Do you go for
(04:33):
the two point conversion?
Speaker 1 (04:34):
One?
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Play the ball in the hand of Joe Burrow. Now,
it's not guaranteed you're going to win. There's no guarantee
you're going to win the game. But do you make
the call you go for it, or do you kick
the extra point and play to overtime.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
Well, the Bengals decided.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
You know, we're going to go for it on the
two point conversion play and they were stonewalled with some
help from the referees on that play, Baltimore able to
ben the rules twice on that play. They got away
with at least two penalties that were not called. The
Ravens get to win their seven to three. They rallied
from down two touchdowns in the third quarter, and they
(05:12):
overcame a mammoth performance one of the great stat lines
you'll see from a wide receiver in the NFL in
any year, Jamar Chase, who finished with eleven catches for
two hundred and sixty four yards, verifying that Baltimore does
not have a championship defense and that they're frauds three touchdowns,
(05:35):
including a five yarder in the final minute that brought
the Bengals within one but did not get to win.
The better story is in the losing locker room. So
Cincinnati has now lost to Baltimore again. They also overtime
last month, so two losses. They're done playing the Ravens.
But the losses decided because this loss decided because they
(05:59):
decided to go for two and the lead and Joe
Burrow his pass attempt to Tanner Hudson sailed.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
High, which did not work.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
There was a penalty that would have could have should
have been called, but was not called in the end.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
And the head coach.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
Of the Cincinnati football team is a guy named Zach Taylor.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
And here is Zach Taylor.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Who says that he's got an illness after watching what
happened at the end of the game.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
There was a good football team, but we expect to
come in here and win, and we did everything we
could do. That doesn't change the fact that I'm proud.
I think everybody on that field fought, gave us a chance,
Hustin came on the road to a good team, and
it's sickening that this has happened twice to us.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yeah, takes some medicine. What do you want it? All? Right?
Speaker 2 (06:46):
And here's Zach Taylor going into the bag of cliches
to sum up the mindset of his football team.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
We got to find a way to close out these games.
You know, we had our opportunity. We got down there,
went for two and just didn't work out for us.
This team's going to continue to put us in good positions,
and there's going to be a pointing the season where
that turns and we'll respond the right way from this game.
If you got a one game season next week against
the Chargers for the buye and so we'll get our
bodies right and get ready to go fight them.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Okay, so let us discuss.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Let's get right to the point of the matter, the
final play of the game. Thumbs up or thumbs down
on Zach Taylor's decision to go for the.
Speaker 1 (07:23):
Win at the end of regulation.
Speaker 2 (07:25):
So I've got Wayne Gretzky, electoral college, and soft underbelly,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to lolly gag around, which is what
the Ravens defense did for much of that game. And Cincinnati.
But Cincinnati's not a championship level team this year, so
hey to answer the question, Thumbs up thumbs down on
(07:47):
the Bengals decision to go for it at the end
of regulation. I'm going thumbs up. In real time, I'm
watching it.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Go for it. You got Joe Burrow, You've got Jamar Chase.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
You're going against a terrible defense in Cincinnati or Baltimore.
Against that Cincinnati offense, they couldn't stop him at all
for most of that game, So I might go for it. Now,
that didn't guarantee you're gonna win the game. That just
guaranteed that you'd force the Ravens to kick a field
goal with Tucker, who hasn't been mister reliable so far
(08:18):
this season. So last week we saw it not one,
not two, not three, but four teams who had a
chance to go for the win at the end of regulation.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
They scored much like this game. They scored touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Late in the game, and all four of them decided
to go for the point after touchdown rather than the
two point conversion. They played for overtime rather than the win,
and all four of those teams lost. So the way
I look at this, and I'm not second guessing it,
I said it and it didn't work out, I would
still have made the same decision. I would have made
(08:50):
the same exact decisions like that old Walker Brothers tune
No regrets.
Speaker 1 (08:56):
And as Wayne Gretzky.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Famously said, you miss one hundred percent of the shots
you do not take. And there is a dimension where
Cincinnati kicks the extra point, they go to overtime, the
Ravens win the coin toss, Lamar Jackson runs the ball
down the field, shoves it down their throat, scores a touchdown.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
You never even get the.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Ball, but you've got to shoot your shot in that spot.
If Joe Burrow is as good as I think he is,
and the perception is I would rather have one play
conceivably to win the game doesn't guarantee you win, but
puts you in a great spot. Now, did the Zebras
help the Ravens out? And the way I would answer
(09:35):
that is does the Pope pray?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
Yes? Of course you're nodding your head.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
These refs turned into blind Scott, Inka Terror, and blind Emmett.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
At the end of that game.
Speaker 2 (09:47):
Two penalties, at least two penalties on the Baltimore football team.
You had defensive holding, you had an illegal hit to
Joe Burrow. But at that moment the referees, they said,
pretend we're in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
That's NBA style.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
They turned into Sergeant Schultz from that old show Hogan zeiros.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I see nothing, I know nothing.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
We're gonna swallow the whistle, let the players decide the game.
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. It reminds me
of what we often see in the Super Bowl. And
one of my favorite stories since I've been doing this
goes back to the Patriot days with Bill Belichick early
on when they were playing a much quicker Rams team,
(10:30):
and the legend is that Bill Belichick told the Patriot
defensive backs to hold the quicker Ram players the Saint
Louis Ram players the greater show on Turf because they
won't call it in the Super Bowl. And even if
they call it a couple of times, they're not gonna
call it every time because it would sully the game.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
And it worked.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
Patriots were able to hold down the Rams and they
were able to win that game. And here at the
end of the game, Baltimore got away with it. They
totally got it. Multiple penalties, the NFL look the other way,
no booth review, No, well, hey, on second hand, let's
look at that one more time, and yeah, there's a penalty.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Now they let them play all right now? Page two?
Are the Joe Burrow Bengals cooked? What are their playoff chances? Overall?
Speaker 5 (11:20):
Now?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Are they over?
Speaker 2 (11:22):
Is it done? Is this it for the Bengals? So
I wouldn't say that they're done. I think that's too dramatic.
I don't think they're cooked. But believe it or not, Cincinnati,
they're four and six, and I've done the Malord math,
and there is a path to the playoffs even at
four and six. If you look at the electoral College,
if you look at the map here on my Telestrader,
(11:42):
here the top seven teams in each conference get in
the playoffs. So if you look at it right now,
Denver is the last team in.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
They're five and four.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Now they play in Kansas City, a game I'll be
at on Sunday at Arrowhead, which is more likely.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Than not a loss. Is it a close loss? Probably?
Speaker 2 (12:04):
But a loss for the Broncos this weekend, So that'll
be lost number five. So you're still if you're the Bengals,
you're one behind.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Denver.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
But there's a gridlock at the bottom. The Colts are
in that mix. There's a lot of teams that are
very similar, and so it's more likely than not that
to get in the playoffs, all you have to do
is find a way to get to eight or nine wins.
We can see a team under five hundred get in
the playoffs this season. So Cincinnati, it doesn't seem like
(12:36):
they belong. But if they can pull an upset against
the Chargers, they can get right back in the mix. Now,
if they lose to the Chargers, the math on the
electoral college gets a little tougher.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
But since he for now is still alive, makes no
sense that they're alive. But they're alive, all right, last word.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Where is Lamar Jackson after another masterpiece performance?
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Where is he in the NFL pecking order?
Speaker 2 (13:04):
So Lamar's not the top quarterback in the NFL, that's
Patrick Mahomes, but he's sitting in the penthouse suite right now.
Speaker 1 (13:10):
He's the MVP favorite.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
And another domination situation. Lamar is in the pole position
for the MVP. Now, another question that popped into my
head here, do you trust John Harbaugh's Ravens in the playoffs? Now,
they've got a great record. You look at the overall
picture and things are just great. They're just absolutely great.
(13:36):
For the Baltimore Ravens. Right now, they got off to
that dreadful start. They lost their first first game of
the year to Kansas City the little toe tap at
the end of the game, and that was bad and
you're like, oh man, that that's not good. Then they
lost to the Raiders, which is a bad beat. But
since then, since then they are seven and one and
they somehow lost to the Cleveland Browns, so they're capable
(13:59):
of losing to anybody. However, I don't trust them. That's
not a championship defense that the Ravens have. And you've
also got another problem. Playoff, Lamar, playoff, Lamar. That defense
is the soft underbelly. But Lamar Jackson has.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Been kryptonite in the plus.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
The Bengals, though without t Higgins, had twenty seven first
downs and almost five hundred yards of offense, and they
had no running game. The running game was those little
dump off passes. They were fifty percent on third down.
They were three for three hundred percent in the red zone.
The Ravens were sloppy. They had all these penalties. Now
(14:39):
Lamar Jackson bailed them out, but it is not a
sustainable formula when we get down to the playoffs. It's
just I mean, it's just not you know it. I
know it, and the Ravens know it. And that's just
the way it is.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
All right. It is the Ben.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
Mahlor Show as we are yapping all night long, as
we're sliding into a Friday and tomorrow is the Malord
Meet and Greet in can City. So if you're one
of our listeners on our affiliate, the Fan in Kansas City,
come on out and say hello. I will be in

Able to make it out there, if you're in the area,
come on down and we'll have a great time, unless
we don't.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
And if we don't, I'm gonna blame Eddie. All Right,
Hot Mike Fun, Hot Mike Fun.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
And what does that mean, Hot Mike Fun. Well, I'll explain.
You might know where I'm going with this, but maybe not.
We'll get to that and we will do it.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Next.
Speaker 4 (16:01):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Malor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on

Radio Studios.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Rolling on all night.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
We got lame jokes of the week that'll be coming
up a little bit later. Yeah, whether you like it
or not, talking about that Thursday night NFL game as
it goes the way of the Baltimore football team Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
I liked that they went for it. It's nice.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
It's also a byproduct of what happened last week week
with four coaches saying, Ahn, we're gonna play for overtime
in all four losing, Like why not shoot your shot?
The Baltimore Ravens defense is terrible, right, It's just brutal.
And now the Cincinnati defense also stinks, so it's it's
(17:20):
equally bad on both sides. But in the end, the
Ravens make the play with a little help from their
friends the referees, and they they get the victory there.
And so we're talking about that and reacting to everything
and that happen, and take your calls coming up here
in a moment eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
(17:40):
That's eight seven seven nine nine six six three six
nine and Brian Wrights in says the Mallard iced out
bling now being emulated by NFL and college teams. Yeah,
well it is true, Brian, as you know. And then
you've been listening to shit for a long time. And
when we have a great show, I wear the victory
(18:03):
bling is what I put on there, and I've been
doing it fancy.
Speaker 1 (18:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
Yeah, it's some jewelry shop over in Beverly Hills and
I put that on. Like when I really nail a
monologue and it's Marconi worthy, I'll put the bling bling
on And that's that's my move. Late night drug testers
is I think that even with thirty eight seconds, the
Ravens would have pulled it off.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
Tucker is due to turn it around.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
So you're doing the do do the do right, He's
due to turn He's been pretty mediocre for like a
year and a half.
Speaker 1 (18:35):
Am I wrong on that? Is that? A?
Speaker 2 (18:37):
I feel like the last the year he has not
been good and probably longer than that for Tucky, he
missed a point after touchdown after the Ravens had an
eighty four yard touchdown, which was mostly just incompetence. There
were mattadors on the Cincinnati defense. Oh le O Leo
Leole as they tried to tackle someone named Tylan Wallace.
(19:02):
I'm not sure who that is, but he ran down
the sidelines like a ballerina and got in the end
zone on that touchdown.
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And man, that was.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
But Tucker has not been not been good. And you
get to the point now you like, he's had a
great run, you know, and as a kicker, so you
say he'll go on forever.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
He's in his mid thirties.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
He's been there for almost well, he's been there over
ten years, closer probably to fifteen years than ten at
this particular point for Justin Tucker with the Ravens.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
Who else do we Let's see page down here, and
I can't read that one on the air.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Jason in can City, who did tell me he plans
on a tenning tomorrow's Malla Meet and greet says ten
out of ten on the Mally monologue Ben the Ben
gals should use some help from the officials, could use
some help for the officials. Also hurting them is the
fact that they missed Joe Mix not a character guy,
(20:02):
but a good running back.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
That's Jason. Yeah, and they didn't have any running game
at all.
Speaker 2 (20:10):
But as it was pointed out by Herbie Kirk Herbstreet
that they were able to use what the Patriots used
to do back in their day, where they would use
those short pass There's a lot of teams do it,
those little dump off passes, and so if you if
you look at the dump off pass combined with the
running game, then those little short passes the back Brown
(20:34):
he had nine, Well do you have nine catches for
fifty two yards forty two yards rushing? So that works
out to like ninety four yards rushing, because that's pretty
all those were like dump off passes, right, So that's
nineteen I think the biggest player was like seventeen yards
or something like that. So the math on that it
somewhat works out, I say somewhat, mass o'mickey says, I
(20:55):
did not hear a single word of your hour one monologue. However,
I'm sure it was fabulous. I look forward to hearing
it on the podcast. There you go, have a great time.
Any chance the Malla Militia could get a little sip
of what you're thinking of the game there, Kansas City
minus a nine and a half. Well, sure it's a
(21:18):
TV show, Massole Mickey. It's called Benny versus the Penny.
It has already started airing. We recorded on Thursdays and
then it starts airing on Thursday night, So you can
check that out on NBC Sports Boston and in San
Francisco and Philadelphia, a bunch of other places there, and also.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
Later on today it'll be on on Peacock.
Speaker 8 (21:37):
And you kind of also already said what you thought
during the monologue.
Speaker 1 (21:41):
No, no, no, I did not. I didn't. My real
opinion will be on the TV show.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
Spaccoli writes in says, Benjamin, I have done you a
great service. I have contacted the Landing and made sure
they have plenty of ranch dressing on hand for Saturday.
When you enjoy a savory basket of the mallard chicken fingers,
do not consider it an early Christmas present. Well, yeah,
wherever I am is a no ranch zwn I will
(22:06):
have a cone around me.
Speaker 1 (22:09):
No ranch, No, I really?
Speaker 7 (22:11):
Will you be bringing your own honey mustard just in case?
Speaker 2 (22:14):
No, I've talked to the people at the Landing and
they've been great, and they have honey mustard.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
There's the honey mustard. They have barbecue sauce.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
So the idea that ranch is The choice is just
a bad that's a bad thought.
Speaker 8 (22:28):
Okay, But I have a question, Ben, Have you done
ranch with top of teo in it?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
I don't do the ranch. I don't want to drink
the devil's blood that.
Speaker 8 (22:38):
Is all the ranch?
Speaker 5 (22:39):
Like?
Speaker 8 (22:39):
Have you had trench?
Speaker 1 (22:41):
Ranch is discussed.
Speaker 8 (22:42):
Because Head Valley does taste like trash.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
I don't watch anything to do with the ranch.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Okay, alf the alien opiner says, Hey, Mallard, I need
a favor. We are under a red flag warning and
have high fire danger here in the Commonwealth. I've done
my part by turning my radio down, but you please
keep your hottest takes to a minimum.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
I don't want now. I don't want any take take.
Speaker 2 (23:05):
Any chances with you your takes causing a a fire. Well,
I do see the relative humidity as low as thirty
percent and National Weather Service issuing a red flag warning
and that's from eight am to six pm on.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Friday, but not what we're on. So I think we're
It's eight am two six pm, so yeah, it's during
the day, so I think we're okay.
Speaker 8 (23:28):
I don't think there'll be any Wait, this is a
wind warning.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Well, yeah, in the Commonwealth. There's a wind fire warning
high fire probability, and.
Speaker 7 (23:38):
We have that in this area too.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
I believe, Well, there is a big fire that's burning, but.
Speaker 8 (23:42):
You know, the extra wind gives you know, more oxygen,
thus bigger flames.
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Wow, scientific, you worked in the fire industry for a while.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
You're a firefighter before we hired.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
You, I used to be a scientist, Ben, Really.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
What was your science of weed? Is that what you
were studying? I don't know. I'm just horticulture.
Speaker 7 (24:03):
I believe they call that.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
Yeah, plans.
Speaker 2 (24:06):
Yeah, let's see everybody in Vegas is I always hear
that people don't know how to watch the games on
Thursday night, but it's literally on Twitch for free?
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Is that? Is that illegal?
Speaker 4 (24:18):
Though?
Speaker 8 (24:18):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
Is who cares most? Most of you don't care.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Yeah, but you know, if you're of a certain age,
it's like Dick and Dayton has no idea how to
watch these games, you know, no no concept on the
Amazon and sometimes even in they're on the local station
in Dayton.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
He has no idea. He's just beyond him. There's there's
just nothing.
Speaker 2 (24:39):
Cowboy Killer says, when is the mandated Christmas music going
to start?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (24:45):
Have an answer.
Speaker 7 (24:45):
No, let's let's not talk about this.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
Well, usually it's right.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
At Thanksgiving, it's right after right after Thanksgiving night, it'll be.
Speaker 8 (24:55):
I was debating on teasing it though. Yeah, I've been
singing it in the studio. Oh haven't I I coop?
Haven't I coop?

Speaker 2 (25:27):
What we do to fight back against the corporate machine
is we have our own catalog of Mather themed holiday
music that has been curated by a large, cautible show.
We have a very I've been doing this a long time,
a lot of holiday song and anyone wants to send
in a holiday song, you can still submit them. We'll
play them. But we have a collection. Okay, it's in profit, dude,
(25:50):
it's in profit. It's in the system, it's in the archive.
So just you've got to play our song.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Can I play other songs too?
Speaker 1 (25:58):
No?
Speaker 2 (25:58):
No, we don't want the other thing. We want our
our songs to our spin on the holidays.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
Now, when you're in your.
Speaker 6 (26:03):
Carl Lo arena or at home, you can play all
the Christmas music you want.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Yeah? Has coast in La started playing Christmas music?
Speaker 2 (26:10):
Don't they usually do that, like right after the fourth
of July or something like that.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
I don't know, but I'm a feeling this is gonna
get ugly. It's not. There's no ugliness. There's no need
for it to get ugly. It's we have our music,
and our music is great. Our music is better than that.
Speaker 8 (26:26):
Have you heard Mariah Carey a billion times?
Speaker 7 (26:30):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Yeah? Have you heard our friend from Flint, Michigan. Have
you heard Ohio Al? Have you heard our guy from Richmond?
I mean, these guys are great. You're laughing.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
But the guy, the dude in Flint, Michigan's he went
into a professional recording studio and put these songs together
and they're amazing.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
I'm telling you, they're great songs.
Speaker 8 (26:50):
I will play all the quality, I swear, Ben, You'll
be so festive. You'll be like, Wow, I'm gonna wear
my ugly Christmas sweater every day.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
I mean, the man plays Santa Claus every year. Lorena,

I do I once a year.
Speaker 8 (27:04):
I sit on I didn't know you last year, Ben,
So that's true.
Speaker 1 (27:08):
Well that's your fault.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
But I sit on the back of a like a
fire truck and I'm Santa.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
I wave at people and it's a lot of fun.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
It's like it's like being a character at Disney, like
if I was Mickey Mouse for a day, or Goofy
walking around.
Speaker 8 (27:24):
I used to be the red Robin bird and I
saw him. I saw him roaming around them all the
other day and it was so nostalgic.
Speaker 1 (27:31):
Jonas used to be Chuck e cheesey.
Speaker 7 (27:32):
Have you guys collaborated on a discussion about this.
Speaker 8 (27:35):
No, we have not masked got Wow yet.
Speaker 2 (27:37):
So Jonas and Lorena were both they were both furries
before it was cool.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
We were both a furry.
Speaker 8 (27:43):
But yeah, out on the sidewalk, baby, shake that tail feather.
Speaker 9 (27:46):
Why did you.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Make any bird noises while you were doing You did
not stop at your liar.
Speaker 7 (27:54):
That was that was the only way I'd go eat
there is if I saw you doing that.
Speaker 8 (27:57):
Thank yeah, man, I throw a bottomless French out into
the street, come and get it.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
You're not a Red Robin guy.
Speaker 7 (28:03):
You know, no, we went very sure. Are they still open?
Speaker 1 (28:07):
Yeah, they're still around.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
I saw what's the restaurant chain that's going out of
business Fridays?
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, TGI Fridays, frash.
Speaker 7 (28:15):
I love those potato skins.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
There was a point in time they were like really popular. Yeah,
I remember that so long, I mean, and they were
open late and people liked.
Speaker 2 (28:22):
It, and I and a lot of the athletes would
go there because they were open late and they had
decent food. And that's a long time ago though. I
last time I was out of TGI Fridays, it was
so bad.
Speaker 8 (28:33):
That's like saying Hooters is popular still, Well.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
Depends what part of the country are in, right, I
mean some parts were it's like, you know, pretty pretty popular.
Other parts now, So remember they had the Hooters Hotel
in Vegas.
Speaker 8 (28:46):
Yeah, yeah, oh my gosh, really yes, And then like
after it was like after midnight or one am with
wings were twenty five cents each wore the good old days.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
And one year they went out of business, the whole hotel,
but they were gonna send me and Looney there.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
We had a deal to go.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
To the Hooters Hotel every weekend to do our show
on Sundays.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
And then at the last minute, it was like.

The friday before we were supposed to go for the
first time.

you to sell. Why is it hard for you to
sell stuff?
Speaker 2 (32:12):
Because that you don't have access to where the people are,
because there's like a parking garage and there's a bridge
or something like that.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
Is that why?
Speaker 4 (32:20):

Speaker 1 (33:35):
So good Man's a legend sports talk radio calling legend.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
How can there could be a legend? The bar is
not high. The bar is not that high. Time Now
for the who am I?
Speaker 4 (33:47):
Game?
Speaker 1 (33:48):
This is where we pretend to be somebody else? That's
we call it the who Am I? Game?
Speaker 2 (33:52):
Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chase had had his third two
hundred plus yard game before turning twenty five. That is
tied with Lance Alworth and me for the most in.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
NFL history since nineteen fifty.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Again, Bengals wide out Jamar Chase, who was all over
the field there against that crap bag Ravens defense, third
two hundred plus receiving yard game before turning twenty five.
That is tied with Lance Alworth and me for the
most in the NFL over the last seventy four seasons
(34:33):
since nineteen fifty.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Who am I the answer? We'll get to it. We
will do it next.
Speaker 5 (34:38):
I fell asleep.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
You did see it.

a moment. If you missed the who am I? Game,
it's a bad job by you. I'll give it you
a ya. I give you some more time to try
to answer it. Bengals watch stever.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
Jamar Chase has had his third two hundred plus.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Receiving yard game. Did it in the in dramatic fashion.
They lose though, the Bengals, so the Ravens third one
before turning twenty five. That is tied with Lance Alworth,
Bambi and me for the most in NFL history. That
goes back since nineteen fifty when they I guess they
have no stats before nineteen fifty. But that's the line
in the sand, and does anyone know the answer.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
We'll get to that in a minute.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
I did want to mention we tease this the hot
mic fun from the NFL. So if you're watching on
the Amazon, you probably saw when the Ravens were losing,
the fans were getting a little upset. They were annoyed.
They're like, wait a minute, we don't usually lose to
good teams. The Ravens normally play like crap against bad
(36:18):
teams at home.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
That's always kind of been the way it's gone.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Fact, Lamar Jackson has a terrible record when favored by
a large amount of points at home. It's just an odd,
quirky thing. They don't live up to expectations. They win
most of those games, but they don't cover the number anyway.
So Amazon caught a fan, some random dude, this middle
aged guy wearing a Ravens long sleeved shirt and the
(36:42):
microphone was on the camera and turned on and the
fans said, come on, guys, you look like ass one
one thousand and two to one thousand holes.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Out out here. And then the Ravens punted it away.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Right after that, it was Outstaye and al Michaels paying
close attention new right away.
Speaker 1 (37:05):
What had been said, and they enjoyed that. They appeared
to enjoy that on the broadcast.
Speaker 2 (37:08):
It was entertaining just right there, big a hole, and
that inspired the Ravens.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
They were inspired to come back.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
They would not have won the game if a fan
had not called them a holes for the way they
were playing.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
Time now again for the who am I? Game?
Speaker 2 (37:21):
Bengals wide receiver Jamar Chay said his third two hundred
plus receiving yard game before turning twenty five. That is
tied with Lance Alworth and me for the most in
NFL history. That goes back to nineteen fifty so modern
NFL history, if you will, let's see does.
Speaker 1 (37:38):
Anyone know the answer?
Speaker 2 (37:40):
We go to the Hoy POLOI, the great Unwashed, and
see if anyone can give us the right answer.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
And who do we have?
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Charles Woodson guests by Freddie Sloth from the Goonies from
the Cowboy Kill.
Speaker 1 (37:54):
These are great guesses.
Speaker 2 (37:55):
Chef Roberto barbecuing from his pool burner, Haywood Jefferies from
the Boilers, guessed by Malibu Rubin.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
Who else do we have? Page down?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
Rashek Caldwell from alf the Alien opiner O Cho Sinko,
Lorena's favorite wide Receiver from Eloy from Compton Air, Bud
the Golden Retriever from King Rory, Fatrick Mahomes from Masshole,
Mickey Ernest Beiner, the Redskins Legend from Spacoli. Andy from
(38:29):
Lionel Lake says you gotta have a fall guy, Chris Carter,
right quickly, Loraina, what say you, Lorena?
Speaker 8 (38:34):
I think it's Julia Childs Ben It's.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
A great answer.
Speaker 2 (38:37):
No, it's Isaac Bruce of the Greatest Show on Turf.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
