original Recipe podcast, a new week of the Ben Mahler
Show and one of the biggest nights of the year.
What a great day to listen to this show and
get a sampling of what it's all about. Here in
hour one, we start with a Mallard monologue. How do
you evaluate President Donald Trump calling on the Redskins and Indians'
(00:24):
names to return to pro sports? Also, what are the
chances that the commanders and Guardians do the old switcheroo?
We have a mini Mallard monologue. Also, the Malard Palooza
twenty twenty five begins. We have celebrity acts from Milkman,
Mike and Colorado, Andrew and Bakersfield and Tony in the
(00:45):
Bay Area among those acts to get us started here
in our number one, settle in It's our one of
the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It is just a name? Or is it just a name?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Welcome in the beginning of another week of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air everywhere together as
we enter the game coast, the coast, border, the.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Border and beyond.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
On the mast, hey unrelentingly powerful microphones of fsr M
monating live from.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
The tune, the auto tune.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
We're gona try to avoid the auto tune of the
Mallet Palooza as we're hanging out here at the Fox
Sports Radio Studios as approved listening on the other side
behind the pearly gates, Matt the Warrior Raider former as
fan Tom Brady Roast Fan. We lost Matt a while back,
and we always tune in from the other side. And
this portion of the Ben Maler Show made possible in
(01:47):
part by our friends at tire Rack. For over forty years,
ty Rak has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and
free back by free row hazard protection with convenient installation
options like mobile tier tire inspilation. That's tire raq dot
com as approved by alphialienl Pineter and Fergdog the way
(02:11):
tire buying should be. So this is a special night,
This night different than all other nights on the show.
It's the biggest night in overnight sports radio this summer.
It's the Mallard Palooza. So that means that we're still
doing the the Malard monologues because they put that up
on the YouTube channel and Saga will kill me if
we don't do those. So so so he's recording this,
(02:31):
so he's I told him, I said, they're gonna be shorter.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Do the monologues. I'll do the Malar monologues. They're gonna
be short. We have a lot of acts.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
We promoted the hell out of the Mallard Palooza and
we've we've got a great turnout of people, a variety
of shows, different performers that will entertain us. We will
introduce the Malapalooza. We will get the party started following
the Mallard monologue. Just give heads up, that's gonna be
a different night. You also will have a voice in this. Now,
(02:59):
I don't know how many call were going to take
just from Rando Calders. However, if you have an X account,
you can give us real time feedback on the X
machine at Ben Mallar and we'll read your comments. So
we will review the acts and really the goal here
and we'll explain it as we go through the Malard Balser.
But the goal is to get in the top four
because we will have our winner based on the judges
(03:22):
here and me and Lorraina Coop and our surprise mystery judge.
We will all vote, and then in addition, we will
have the voice of the people that will be you.
And so the top four acts as the turn by us,
will go up for a vote. And so if you're
a podcast listener working the Dread to Day shift, you
will be able to vote on that.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
So those are some of.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
The guidelines to get you set. But we begin with
the Mallard monologue and our lead this hour from the
name Game from the Name of So over the weekend,
just a random sleepy July weekend, the President decided to
spice things up a little bit here and enter the
sporting world. And I don't know if you watching and
paying attention, maybe not got some headlines people freaking out here.
(04:04):
So President Donald Trump, if you saw this, he is
threatening to hold up a new stadium which is in
the works for the NFL's Washington franchise, the team in Washington.
The President sending out some comments on social media if
they do not restore the old name. Hail to the Redskins,
Hail to Victor Rey now. President Trump also said over
(04:27):
the weekend that he wants the Cleveland baseball team to
change his name back as well, to revert to the
former name the Indians, which I know will make Dick
and Dayton very happy if they do do that. He
still calls him that he said the president. There is
a big clamoring for this as well, so and of
course people freaked out, like the sports media. Oh my god.
(04:50):
All right, so let us discuss the question, how do
you evaluate President Donald Trump calling on the Redskins and
Indians nicknames you return to pro sports? So on this one,
I've got Tsunami and Mendoza line and that's it, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So a I get a kick out of the media meltdown.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So I'm perusing the commentary and people are losing their
fricking minds, right, some of the sports media people.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Some of these people, I know, they're losing their minds, right.
They're clutching their pearls.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Oh my god, it's like it's like they need one
of those old school Victorian fainting couches.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
They're so emotional by this.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And here's why, all right, because when you break it
down unscientifically, right, when you break it down, and if
you're actually honest about the.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Story, it was political.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
The reason those team names change was the political climate
in America. The teams bowed down to the politics at
the time they changed their names, names that had been
around for a very long time. And now it's political again. Right,
it's different politics, but it's political again. President Trump daring
suggesting to people it's changing the names back now. Now,
(06:07):
Trump is he's tapping into something here, the president that
there's a.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Lot of people that agree with him, a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
In fact, I've talked about is I have some boots
on the ground in the Washington, DC area who've informed
me the Redskins or the Commanders have done market research
for years since they changed.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
The name, and they've asked, like, what name do you want?
What name you know?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
And overwhelmingly the people that actually buy tickets, the actual customers,
have said Redskins, that's the name they want back. And
so that you know, people don't bring that up, that's
what they want. And so they're like, hey, listen, the
people that follow the team that actually pay for the
tickets and buy the merchandise that's all overpriced, they're like, hey,
(06:49):
we like this.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
We don't want to scrub this, we like this. This
is the name. And in the.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Years and I understand we were in a period in
like twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, like there was this
weird period here in America.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Where we were rewriting history. Right.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
There were you know, knocking down statues. It got rid
of the Redskins name, and the Indians name got swallowed
up by the tsunami that was taking place in America.
You had owners of heritage franchises, right. American institutions were
told like these these are community trusts. These professional sports
teams who were bending down gen inflecting faster than referee
(07:24):
trun to put the ball down for Tom Brady back
in the day when he was playing for the Patriots.
And so it was not because the fans the customers
demanded that these names go away.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
That was not it at all. In fact, it was
the opposite of that.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
It was because of some social media mob that was
out there that needed fresh meat, and they're like, all right,
they just eat everything up. And these these professional sports
leagues bowed down to that. But keep in mind there
were people that had backbone in sports that didn't do that.
The Atlanta Braves, major League Baseball wanted the Braves to
change their nickname because of the political climate.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
The Atlanta Braves still exists.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
If it was up to the mob, the Atlanta Brains
would have gone away.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
You can go down the.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Hockey team in Chicago, the Blackhawks. There are people there
that I should change the name in college, the Florida
State Seminoles. There was a push you gotta get rid
of the Seminals. I don't care if the Indian group supported.
You got to get rid of it. You know, some
liberal white people don't like it.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
You gotta get rid of it.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So listen that the names are alive. Those names are
alive today because they had owners that had a backbone.
The Washington Redskins, Cleveland Indians did not have owners that
have backbone. So now the president's calling out. Now the
other part of that, like, if you were to say
page two, what are the chances, what are the chances
that the commanders in the NFL and the guardians in
(08:39):
Major League Baseball were to actually do the old switch
or rou and go back to the old name. I
just go back to the old name. It's not great.
I'm not gonna sit here and tell you it's great.
I don't think it is great because they know, these
teams know It's just they got to hold their ground
because Trump's only gonna be president for a few more
years and then somebody else will be in the White House,
so they just have to ride the wave here. But
(09:01):
it's not zero, Okay, it's not zero. The reason it's
not zero the Washington Commanders, what a dumb name, and
the Cleveland Guardians an equally dumb name. The current names.
They've had those names since twenty twenty two, so here
we are in the summer of twenty twenty five. Both
have said they don't plan to change their name. Of course,
spoiler alert spoiler. Both of them said for years they
(09:24):
were not going to change the name Indians and Redskins,
so who cares what they say. They never said they
were gonna change the names in the first place. They did,
but they said they weren't, and they finally, you know,
they broke down and changed the name. But I'm gonna
set the malarods on this at plus four hundred. I'm
gonna set the malarods on this at plus four hundred.
(09:45):
That is a two hundred hitter. That is the Mendoza line.
That is the Mendoza line in baseball. Baseball player Mario Mendoza.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
So two hundred.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Batting average and if you look at the two hunderd
batting average, that sucks, right, that's terrible. That is the
threshold for offensive futility ALLO on modern baseball. That's acceptable.
In the old days it wasn't. But the name, if
you go from the Redskins and the Guardians, this is
like the symbol of the outrage era that we were in, right,
(10:15):
This is like they changed to these names the Great
Purge of sports mascots, which they took those down. And
also a bunch of high school teams had to change
their name and all this stuff, and some colleges. But
to replace the Commanders and the Guardians, those names, those
replacement names right there terrible, they suck.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
I mean, there's so many.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
It's like the bureaucrats got together and it's like some
kind of dystopian sci fi thing.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
They got together.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
We've got to get a committee together, because everyone they
needs a committee. We've got to have branding, and how
can we come up with a name. We'll get a
committee together and let's have some meetings. We'll do some
zoom meetings. So it was twenty twenty and it's like
the mascots were put together by the Department of the Bland.
How can it be the most bland possible nickname? And
the Bland, I mean, he's so stupid, right, And so
(11:09):
they came up with Guardians, and they came up with
the Commanders, and they were selected. I am convinced. I
was not in the room, but I am convinced. Nonetheless,
if those nicknames were selected for one reason, and one
reason only, to offend no one, right, their goal, well,
we do not want to We're gonna name the Cleveland
(11:30):
baseball team after a bridge. They named it after a
bridge and the commanders. It sounds like some ripoff Gi
Joe character or something like that. So, in the process
of trying not to offend anyone, which was the goal,
they have manaers to offend everyone. Right, Everyone's like, this
is so stupid. It's lifeless. There's no energy, there's no passion.
(11:50):
And the logos they came up with, I think I
could come up with that. If you gave me AI,
I get you chat, GPT or whatever, I could come
up with a logo like that. They're minimalist there, forgettable logos.
Uh there, Why would anyone buy merchandise.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
For these teams. I mean that's the logos are just blah.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
You can you can create a better logo on your
phone than a professional sports team. Why would you buy
that logo? Like, it makes no sense. They're sanitized their
shrink wrap. It's just they just blow.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
And it was like some kind of diversity inclusion marketing
division came up with it.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
It is terrible. They're horrible. Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And it's uh, They've got about as much edge as
a cracker, you know, like a gluten freak cracker.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
It's it's nothing. There's just blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And then to compound the issue, right, you compound the issue,
you get rid of names that had a legacy, that
had a following, that had tradition all stuff, and the
the new name and you combine the name and the
logo and it's like plain oatmeal is what it is.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. We are just getting started.
The Malard Palooza is a out to kickoff. We'll have
the big introduction. We need our judge, by the where's
our judge? Do we have our judge? We need our
we have a celebrity judge, you'll be calling in here
as well, representing the people. So we'll get to that.
To Mallard Palooza. I'm not sure who's the lead off act.
I see our judge has arrived. I love is weed Man.
(13:18):
I don't think weed Man's in. I don't think he's
in the Malapaloosa.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
He's flexing around on his phone there in Miami, so
he's not entered. For some reason, weed Man did not
enter the Malapusa. But the opening act, well, the big introduction,
it is gonna be one of an amazing night of entertainment.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
You never know what you can get.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Unlike those other Bland logos we just talked about, this
is not Bland and if it sucks, we'll just rip them. Okay,
we'll rip them apart if we have to, because the
one goal is entertainment. That's what matters here. It's a
radio show. You got to be entertaining. Put the show
as in entertainment in there. We'll get to that. The kickoff,
the Mallard Palooza, we'll get to it, and we will
do it next.

Speaker 7 (14:12):
To and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah, you blubber list name in me.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
Well you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.

Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna

but definitely let join us. Listen Over Promised with Cadino

Speaker 2 (15:05):
Kind of like Jim Rome back in the nineties, but
it's you know, it's overnight. It's Hi Bill Miller, and
it is the Ben Mallor Show about to kick off
the Malor Palooza twenty twenty five, the biggest night in
overnight sports radio all summer long.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
The moment many people wait all year.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Four has arrived and you are locked in and be
given be part of this.
Speaker 7 (15:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
We're not taking many calls other than the acts. We
have so many acts we have to get them all in.
You can judge though you have an ear. You can
tell what's good and what's not good. Out We'll let
you play along. You can give us real time feedback
and what you like, what you don't like. You can
critique the judges. All of that available in real time.
It is a benefit of working the third shift, flying
(15:54):
the Red Eye flight with us at Ben Mahllor on
the X Machine at and Malar Lorena FSR Tech Queen
and Coop at a Bronco fan We were thinking about
using the mallard Palooza hashtag to try to get that
trending on X because most people are sleeping, But we
(16:15):
realize most people listening can't spell malar palooza, so that
won't work. Unfortunately, disappointing. And now back to it all, Right,
back to what we go, and here we are. We've arrived.
The moment is here. Welcome one and all, young and
old to the grand Cunival of the absurd, the neon flashing,
(16:39):
snore smashing, caffeine fueled bananza. That is the one and old.
The malor Palooza has arrived. And this is not your
average late night lounge.
Speaker 8 (16:52):
Ack.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
This is not some acting sheboygan. No, no, no, no no.
We got a little bit of everything here, the unofficial
It really is the unofficial Olympics of the insomniac life,
and really a celebration, if you will, of the people
that are brave enough to step behind their smartphone and
scream like lunatics while no one's paying attention here. Well,
(17:15):
most people are sleeping, and we do thank everyone that participates.
I'm surprised every year we've done this. The amount of
people that have stepped up, because most of you get
ripped to bits by those of us that are judging
because most of the accents are terrible. So we understand that.
And you know, every song I think sounds a little
(17:35):
better in your head at two in the morning. It
just sounds better at two in the morning. So what
is the Malard Palooza? For those of you that are
new to our store. Welcome, We've been here a while,
but you're your new customer, so thank you glad that
you have stopped by here, and we advise you to
buckle up. And it's a variety show, very chaotic, the
(17:56):
Mallard Palooza. It's got the charm of a raccoon, very charming,
maybe like a tuxedo wearing raccoon, you know, formal raccoon exactly.
We've got singing check right. We've got comedy, well depends
what you think is funny. We've got that. We've got
animal acts, we've got poetry.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
We have a little bit of everything. I don't even
know all the ss.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I have a rough idea what's coming up, but I
don't even know. We have legends form Malard Palooza's past.
Like Kathy and Madison, I know she's back the hey
Mona she is. She has submitted an act for this
year's Mallapullusa. Will she become the breakout star?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
So?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Again, the malaplusa is it's a talent show with a
blatant disregard to the talent part of it. The key
part is the show part. And that's what it's about,
right people. We have marked the full name guy, he's
signed up, he's got his harmonica. I'm sure somebody will
bring a kazoo in here and do that. Who knows.
(19:00):
So we're here for you and every act will be judged.
Every act will be judged because it's a show and
we have the now what we want from the judges,
the sacred mountain of judging here we've got, obviously equality,
We do want quality, want entertainment. And what I think
is the most important is the razzle dazzle. You got
(19:23):
to bring the razzle dazzle right And then the judges
that are involved in this, now me be me Ben
High your favorite gas bag, unless it's not so that
would be me. We've got Kooper Loop, a returning judge
here Lorena as well, representing the hell and representing the people.
A classically trained pianist known professionally by the way as
(19:47):
inco war You can find him at inco Warrior dot com.
I don't know if he wants us to give that out.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
We just did. Oops.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Performed throughout the United States at famous concert halls, also
around the world in place like France, Germany, the Netherlands, Bulgaria,
I don't know where that is, Russia, Taiwan, Japan. Of
course his peru is homeland there and uh, just legendarybody.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
This guy legit, this is legit.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
He's performed at the Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory, the
Philharmonic Hall in Saint Petersburg, Russia. And now he's on
the Malor Paluza. He's returning Inca Terror. Hello, inca terror.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Then I do have to say one thing though. I
just checked and it looks like the San Diego State
AZTECS still exists.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Oh that's true, they do, they do. They do still exist.
See that's good. Tying into the he's tying into the
Mala Monola InKo terror.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, so I'm gonna I'm going to remain offended until
there's A College INCA team.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
You should well you of course you're the INCA Terror
INCA Warriors.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
I'm rooting for the saddleback Incas.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Said back they got woke, they changed they were called
the Gauchos. When I went there they changed their name
to like the Bobcat or something like that.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
It was a gut show.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I mean, like, anyway, well, you're here, INCA and what
gigs have you done recently?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
We have not spoken a long time. You were in here.
Was very nice to meet you.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
You came by, said hello, and hopefully when you travel here,
I do want to see you perform at some point
here when you're out and the wife is actually hanging
out monitoring everything, and we'd love to see your perform
when you're back in California.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
So you gotta let us know, give us heads on it.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I definitely will, and I think I actually will be
in LA in the next year or two, so looking
forward to that. Yeah, I'm adding a Korea and Hong
Kong thiss fall to the list of countries.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
So nice, all right, and you've you've performed all over
the place we know, and you're very town. This guy's
amazing the ability that he has on a piano and
so great, and we will be judging on a scale
of one to ten as we normally do now ten
would be the pinnacle.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Ten would be amazed.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
So people have good tars and different instruments and all
that stuff. If they're able to play it, that would
be good. And so really the key part where the
rubber meets the road is the razzle dazzle, the ras
mataz as we.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Like to call it.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
There and a lot of razzle turns to frazzle, which
is a problem, right, Anko, that's a problems.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Yeah, yeah, it's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
And I want you to know that.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
We might not take this seriously, but I got email
from people who were still upset about something Inca Terra
said years ago about them and he's still better Anca
about something you said about their act. So people remember,
they remember what we say, and so these people are
prepared and all that stuff. So we're very excited that
the night is young, the circus is here. It's the
(22:42):
Mallard Palooza. And who's in the leadoff chair? So we're
now cool? Which direction should we go on? This is
the Milkman, our leadoff guy? Are we started with the
milk manchon. We have an at large bit we had
to have. We have some at large add ons that
called up at the last minute that want to be
part of this.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
All right, well, actually we have an open well to
play the open. Here we go. We have imaging professionally
done imaging.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Shine.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
What I do is say, yeah, you know what I mean, like.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Show us what you got there. This is malar Paloosa
and now here's your host, Ben Mallock.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
All we're off to the races with the Malapalooza. Now
we did get a tune sent in. Now this is
not for the judges to consider, but I just want
to give you a taste of what's out there. And
Mallard prop guy, who I thought he was going to
be here tonight, but I guess we couldn't get him in.
But malaprop guy a big fan of the show, big
supporter of the show. He sat in last year. I
(23:43):
believe he was the seat filler last year for the malapus.
I'm a very big fan of what we do here
and we love his contribution on a nightly basis. And
he he put a little diddy you know, he's actually
like a real musician and he put a little song together.
Let's play a little bit of it, and it's really
really good. I think there's a lot of eye in it,
but it's really I admitted it. But listen, this is
pretty good. Now A prop guy set to.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Here we go. I'm trying to talk into the not
sheve over the post. It's a big leading it's I
can talk here. We got everybody. Buckle up, buckle up,
a show, talent show, malocal loser. Time to go on
the bed.
Speaker 9 (24:36):
Show unless it's not smart, socking, pretty song that jokes
that go on and work weird fashion to show.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
All right, well taste and that is not for judging.
That was just sitting by Mallard prop guy. He wanted
us to hear that and promote the Malard palooza. So
thank you and you are ten I look at that.
My wife says, ten on that that's no.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
That isn't AI. That doesn't count right, we're not counting AI.
Speaker 10 (25:19):
I feel like there should be an AI category no.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Because then we're gonna encourage A. I don't want to
encourage you. I want us.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
This is the whole point of the bit, is that
some you know, some dude sitting on a farm in Iowa.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
With his own two hands.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Exactly. That's what I want. Anybody could do AI. Who
cares about AI? I want to hear humans, just like
all you idiots that want robot ai umpires. I want humans.
I love humans. You tell them that's right. All right,
let's walk in our first act a leadoff chair boy.
What a difficult spot to be in. And man has
been entertaining us for years. He's had many bits on

things and we love it.

give you this entertainment. The Mallard Paloos, all the networks.
We're trying to get it. Let's welcome in our next act,
a last minute submission. He does not use props, he
uses profanity, he doesn't use tricks. He uses foul words,
just the power of the human mind and a very
(30:50):
dirty lexicon. Prepared to be stunned by Tony in the
Bay Area. Tony, your next up? Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Tony?
Speaker 8 (31:00):

Speaker 8 (31:07):
He thinks they're a little salty? Thanks, Ben, Okay, look
at that.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Let's go to the judges scorecard and could tear your thoughts.
One joke from Tony and the Bay Area.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
One joke.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Brevity is the soul of wit, as they say, uh, so,
you know I'm going to give it a four.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
You're the four, all right? The Vassay joke, of course,
taking shots at this show.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
He's the host of Dodger Talk, and we normally come
on after Dodger Talk on our affiliate in Los Angeles.
I've known Veassay since he was an intern. He takes
shots at me all the time, while meantime he's coddling
Dodger players and the Dodger I don't have. If you
noticed the last couple weeks, they blow, They're terrible, got
swept by the Brewers. So he brought up, as I
love that he holds a grudge. Would you give him again? Inca,
(31:59):
you give him a four? All right, I'm gonna give him.
I'm gonnave him a solid five because I love the
fact he's got my back and I love that Lorena.
Speaker 12 (32:09):
I love a good salty ball joke, Ben, So I
gotta give him a six.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
All right. So six happening good?
Speaker 10 (32:16):
And he didn't cuss.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
I'm very pleased and shocking. He did not curse.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Said all the wife says of six a six. You
and Lorena both said, that's unbelievable. That's everydaylus cupolo, please, uh,
I gotta give it a three me three. Look, it
was he's defending the show, Coop, I know, but it
was one guy.
Speaker 15 (32:38):
It was one joke. The entire act was ten seconds
lost me.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
By the end of this, you're gonna wish they were
all one one joke.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Okay, understand, Okay, we should thank Tony for only doing
one joke.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Basically, people are gonna be a fifteen minute stand up
sets here before we're done. You know that's gonna happen.
I agree with you. Brevity, as you said, and gets there.
Brevity is the key to this very important. So all right,
well everyone, what is.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
The score on that? But that was twenty four? All right?
Speaker 2 (33:06):
So in second place, our friend Tony in the Bay Area?

to take care of. There was some sports going on
and cross the way there across a big body of
water what used to be called the British Open, but
God forbid, we call the British Open. It's the Open Championship.
But let's go now to Royal Portbrush. I believe is
that I think that's anyway. Here is the end, the
(36:17):
big win. Take a listen to play. It is the
tire Iraq play of the night.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
The tap in Scottie Scheffler. He's now joined the company
of golf's greats. He is the champion of the Open
Royal Port Rush Part Rush five.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Here he won the Claret jug which will collect dust
on a shelf somewhere in his home. But that is
the third career Grand Slam leg for Scottie Scheffler, one
of the most boring human beings in sports. Congratulations to him.
And that is the ti Iraq play of the day,
Playing the night. For over forty years, Tyraq has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
(37:01):
where they drive, ship fast and freedback by free road
hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
tire ract dot Com the way tire buying should be.
Back to the Malapalooza, we go some very interesting feedback
from the p ones on the exp ma sheet. We
don't have time for that right now because we must
get back to the next act.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
Very important.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
We're doing God's work here putting people that are entertaining
you on the radio, and we have inca terror are
classically trained judge who is his pianist, and he's here
as well. But up next he's a juggler, a contortionist,
a human beat box, and somehow he does it all
at once.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Buggle up a wild ride. We go to the mean.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Streets of Bakersfield, California, and we welcome in Andrew Andrew
ninety seconds.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
The flour is yours.
Speaker 11 (37:57):
Go ahead, all right, beat going. I thought we'd got
to beat.
Speaker 15 (38:05):
Oh not me?
Speaker 11 (38:07):
Yeah, well all right, after a good start, all right,
I'll drop a freestyle with no beat. It's complete. Every
time I do this, you can hear the dog in
the next room. I get through this even though I
was in the er a little bit to go for
gall bladderstones. Man, it sucks, but I'm gonna drop a
poem and I'm gonna do it for Freddie Freeman and
(38:29):
Show Hey and David Bath say that's what I say.
And I'm gonna drop it, and I'm gonna stop it
because I got no beat, But I'll keep on going.
I'm walking with my feet upon the street. I love
poetry and I love hip hop like the Visionary said,
and that's how I'm gonna stop it. And Yo, my
eyes might be red.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Okay, there's Andrew Andrew in Baker's field a little different there,
a little freestyle hip hop, rappy.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Think think it's there? Your your scale to ten? Here
Anka on our first act?
Speaker 8 (39:02):
What do you Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:03):
I think that the emphasis is on the word free.
So I needed that beat, and I think he could
have created one without Lorena. So I'm giving him a
two yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Give him a two yeah. So here's the thing, Andrew.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
It's never good when you start your bit by blaming
someone else right away, right, there's a lack of accountability.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
You should have let let you know when.
Speaker 14 (39:27):
He signed up a week ago. He did say he
wanted a rat beat and I failed to do that.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Okay, you did not provide him with a rap beat, Okay,
as I will just judge him based on his performance.
I thought it was one of the worst things I've
ever heard. It was absolutely horrible. I'm gonna give him
a minus five is what I'm going to give Andrew.
A minus five.
Speaker 10 (39:43):
Lorena, Oh yeah, you know, I tried to write it.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
I did.
Speaker 12 (39:48):
I tried. I tried, but he did play with the
not having a beat into the rhyming. He did so
by playing on his toes. I'm going to give him
a little bit of points.
Speaker 10 (39:57):
Im gonna give him four four.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Oh my god, uh, Coop, what do you?
Speaker 3 (40:02):
What do you think?
Speaker 15 (40:03):
Coop?
Speaker 14 (40:03):
Well, I mean you mentioned that he played it into
the rhyming. I didn't hear a lot of rhyming.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
He did mention his gallbladder. I don't think you rhymed
anything with gall.
Speaker 10 (40:11):
I don't said he loved poetry though, so that's nice.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
Maybe you should learn something.
Speaker 15 (40:19):
Yes, I'm gonna give him a five. Five?
Speaker 3 (40:23):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
All right, so basically you got a zero between me
and you, because my mind is five knocked your five
out and so that's that.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Well, what we are four accident? Is this?
Speaker 2 (40:33):
What a what an hour to begin an get and
we were actually behind our like the pace, we're behind
the pace. We need to be right because we have
we recorded, we have we had the Milkman, we had
Tony the Bay.
Speaker 15 (40:42):
We still have a we need another score here.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
Oh ah, that's right. The wife says four. He says,
all right, why do you just agree with the loraina?
What's it's like a female thing.
Speaker 10 (40:50):
We're on the same page. We're on the same page.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
No, that was terrible, horrific, So total of ten, ten iratulations. Andrew,
you got a hen you think he'll make If he
makes the top four, we're all screwed, all right. If
Andrew ends up in the top four, we might not
have Malipalooza twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
This would be the final ever edition of the Malapalooza.
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome, It's our number or on our one of the
original Recipe podcast, a new week of the Ben Mahler
Show and one of the biggest nights of the year.
What a great day to listen to this show and
get a sampling of what it's all about. Here in
hour one, we start with a Mallard monologue. How do
you evaluate President Donald Trump calling on the Redskins and Indians'
(00:24):
names to return to pro sports? Also, what are the
chances that the commanders and Guardians do the old switcheroo?
We have a mini Mallard monologue. Also, the Malard Palooza
twenty twenty five begins. We have celebrity acts from Milkman,
Mike and Colorado, Andrew and Bakersfield and Tony in the
(00:45):
Bay Area among those acts to get us started here
in our number one, settle in It's our one of
the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It is just a name? Or is it just a name?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Welcome in the beginning of another week of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air everywhere together as
we enter the game coast, the coast, border, the.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
Border and beyond.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
On the mast, hey unrelentingly powerful microphones of fsr M
monating live from.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
The tune, the auto tune.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
We're gona try to avoid the auto tune of the
Mallet Palooza as we're hanging out here at the Fox
Sports Radio Studios as approved listening on the other side
behind the pearly gates, Matt the Warrior Raider former as
fan Tom Brady Roast Fan. We lost Matt a while back,
and we always tune in from the other side. And
this portion of the Ben Maler Show made possible in
(01:47):
part by our friends at tire Rack. For over forty years,
ty Rak has been helping customers find the right tires
for how, what and where they drive, ship fast and
free back by free row hazard protection with convenient installation
options like mobile tier tire inspilation. That's tire raq dot
com as approved by alphialienl Pineter and Fergdog the way
(02:11):
tire buying should be. So this is a special night,
This night different than all other nights on the show.
It's the biggest night in overnight sports radio this summer.
It's the Mallard Palooza. So that means that we're still
doing the the Malard monologues because they put that up
on the YouTube channel and Saga will kill me if
we don't do those. So so so he's recording this,
(02:31):
so he's I told him, I said, they're gonna be shorter.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Do the monologues. I'll do the Malar monologues. They're gonna
be short. We have a lot of acts.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
We promoted the hell out of the Mallard Palooza and
we've we've got a great turnout of people, a variety
of shows, different performers that will entertain us. We will
introduce the Malapalooza. We will get the party started following
the Mallard monologue. Just give heads up, that's gonna be
a different night. You also will have a voice in this. Now,
(02:59):
I don't know how many call were going to take
just from Rando Calders. However, if you have an X account,
you can give us real time feedback on the X
machine at Ben Mallar and we'll read your comments. So
we will review the acts and really the goal here
and we'll explain it as we go through the Malard Balser.
But the goal is to get in the top four
because we will have our winner based on the judges
(03:22):
here and me and Lorraina Coop and our surprise mystery judge.
We will all vote, and then in addition, we will
have the voice of the people that will be you.
And so the top four acts as the turn by us,
will go up for a vote. And so if you're
a podcast listener working the Dread to Day shift, you
will be able to vote on that.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
So those are some of.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
The guidelines to get you set. But we begin with
the Mallard monologue and our lead this hour from the
name Game from the Name of So over the weekend,
just a random sleepy July weekend, the President decided to
spice things up a little bit here and enter the
sporting world. And I don't know if you watching and
paying attention, maybe not got some headlines people freaking out here.
(04:04):
So President Donald Trump, if you saw this, he is
threatening to hold up a new stadium which is in
the works for the NFL's Washington franchise, the team in Washington.
The President sending out some comments on social media if
they do not restore the old name. Hail to the Redskins,
Hail to Victor Rey now. President Trump also said over
(04:27):
the weekend that he wants the Cleveland baseball team to
change his name back as well, to revert to the
former name the Indians, which I know will make Dick
and Dayton very happy if they do do that. He
still calls him that he said the president. There is
a big clamoring for this as well, so and of
course people freaked out, like the sports media. Oh my god.
(04:50):
All right, so let us discuss the question, how do
you evaluate President Donald Trump calling on the Redskins and
Indians nicknames you return to pro sports? So on this one,
I've got Tsunami and Mendoza line and that's it, all right.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
So a I get a kick out of the media meltdown.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
So I'm perusing the commentary and people are losing their
fricking minds, right, some of the sports media people.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Some of these people, I know, they're losing their minds, right.
They're clutching their pearls.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Oh my god, it's like it's like they need one
of those old school Victorian fainting couches.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
They're so emotional by this.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
And here's why, all right, because when you break it
down unscientifically, right, when you break it down, and if
you're actually honest about the.
Speaker 3 (05:40):
Story, it was political.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
The reason those team names change was the political climate
in America. The teams bowed down to the politics at
the time they changed their names, names that had been
around for a very long time. And now it's political again. Right,
it's different politics, but it's political again. President Trump daring
suggesting to people it's changing the names back now. Now,
(06:07):
Trump is he's tapping into something here, the president that
there's a.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Lot of people that agree with him, a lot of it.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
In fact, I've talked about is I have some boots
on the ground in the Washington, DC area who've informed
me the Redskins or the Commanders have done market research
for years since they changed.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
The name, and they've asked, like, what name do you want?
What name you know?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
And overwhelmingly the people that actually buy tickets, the actual customers,
have said Redskins, that's the name they want back. And
so that you know, people don't bring that up, that's
what they want. And so they're like, hey, listen, the
people that follow the team that actually pay for the
tickets and buy the merchandise that's all overpriced, they're like, hey,
(06:49):
we like this.
Speaker 3 (06:50):
We don't want to scrub this, we like this. This
is the name. And in the.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Years and I understand we were in a period in
like twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, like there was this
weird period here in America.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Where we were rewriting history. Right.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
There were you know, knocking down statues. It got rid
of the Redskins name, and the Indians name got swallowed
up by the tsunami that was taking place in America.
You had owners of heritage franchises, right. American institutions were
told like these these are community trusts. These professional sports
teams who were bending down gen inflecting faster than referee
(07:24):
trun to put the ball down for Tom Brady back
in the day when he was playing for the Patriots.
And so it was not because the fans the customers
demanded that these names go away.
Speaker 3 (07:33):
That was not it at all. In fact, it was
the opposite of that.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
It was because of some social media mob that was
out there that needed fresh meat, and they're like, all right,
they just eat everything up. And these these professional sports
leagues bowed down to that. But keep in mind there
were people that had backbone in sports that didn't do that.
The Atlanta Braves, major League Baseball wanted the Braves to
change their nickname because of the political climate.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
The Atlanta Braves still exists.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
If it was up to the mob, the Atlanta Brains
would have gone away.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
You can go down the.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Hockey team in Chicago, the Blackhawks. There are people there
that I should change the name in college, the Florida
State Seminoles. There was a push you gotta get rid
of the Seminals. I don't care if the Indian group supported.
You got to get rid of it. You know, some
liberal white people don't like it.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
You gotta get rid of it.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So listen that the names are alive. Those names are
alive today because they had owners that had a backbone.
The Washington Redskins, Cleveland Indians did not have owners that
have backbone. So now the president's calling out. Now the
other part of that, like, if you were to say
page two, what are the chances, what are the chances
that the commanders in the NFL and the guardians in
(08:39):
Major League Baseball were to actually do the old switch
or rou and go back to the old name. I
just go back to the old name. It's not great.
I'm not gonna sit here and tell you it's great.
I don't think it is great because they know, these
teams know It's just they got to hold their ground
because Trump's only gonna be president for a few more
years and then somebody else will be in the White House,
so they just have to ride the wave here. But
(09:01):
it's not zero, Okay, it's not zero. The reason it's
not zero the Washington Commanders, what a dumb name, and
the Cleveland Guardians an equally dumb name. The current names.
They've had those names since twenty twenty two, so here
we are in the summer of twenty twenty five. Both
have said they don't plan to change their name. Of course,
spoiler alert spoiler. Both of them said for years they
(09:24):
were not going to change the name Indians and Redskins,
so who cares what they say. They never said they
were gonna change the names in the first place. They did,
but they said they weren't, and they finally, you know,
they broke down and changed the name. But I'm gonna
set the malarods on this at plus four hundred. I'm
gonna set the malarods on this at plus four hundred.
(09:45):
That is a two hundred hitter. That is the Mendoza line.
That is the Mendoza line in baseball. Baseball player Mario Mendoza.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
So two hundred.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Batting average and if you look at the two hunderd
batting average, that sucks, right, that's terrible. That is the
threshold for offensive futility ALLO on modern baseball. That's acceptable.
In the old days it wasn't. But the name, if
you go from the Redskins and the Guardians, this is
like the symbol of the outrage era that we were in, right,
(10:15):
This is like they changed to these names the Great
Purge of sports mascots, which they took those down. And
also a bunch of high school teams had to change
their name and all this stuff, and some colleges. But
to replace the Commanders and the Guardians, those names, those
replacement names right there terrible, they suck.
Speaker 3 (10:38):
I mean, there's so many.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
It's like the bureaucrats got together and it's like some
kind of dystopian sci fi thing.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
They got together.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
We've got to get a committee together, because everyone they
needs a committee. We've got to have branding, and how
can we come up with a name. We'll get a
committee together and let's have some meetings. We'll do some
zoom meetings. So it was twenty twenty and it's like
the mascots were put together by the Department of the Bland.
How can it be the most bland possible nickname? And
the Bland, I mean, he's so stupid, right, And so
(11:09):
they came up with Guardians, and they came up with
the Commanders, and they were selected. I am convinced. I
was not in the room, but I am convinced. Nonetheless,
if those nicknames were selected for one reason, and one
reason only, to offend no one, right, their goal, well,
we do not want to We're gonna name the Cleveland
(11:30):
baseball team after a bridge. They named it after a
bridge and the commanders. It sounds like some ripoff Gi
Joe character or something like that. So, in the process
of trying not to offend anyone, which was the goal,
they have manaers to offend everyone. Right, Everyone's like, this
is so stupid. It's lifeless. There's no energy, there's no passion.
(11:50):
And the logos they came up with, I think I
could come up with that. If you gave me AI,
I get you chat, GPT or whatever, I could come
up with a logo like that. They're minimalist there, forgettable logos.
Uh there, Why would anyone buy merchandise.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
For these teams. I mean that's the logos are just blah.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
You can you can create a better logo on your
phone than a professional sports team. Why would you buy
that logo? Like, it makes no sense. They're sanitized their
shrink wrap. It's just they just blow.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
And it was like some kind of diversity inclusion marketing
division came up with it.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
It is terrible. They're horrible. Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And it's uh, They've got about as much edge as
a cracker, you know, like a gluten freak cracker.
Speaker 3 (12:33):
It's it's nothing. There's just blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
And then to compound the issue, right, you compound the issue,
you get rid of names that had a legacy, that
had a following, that had tradition all stuff, and the
the new name and you combine the name and the
logo and it's like plain oatmeal is what it is.
Speaker 3 (12:54):
All right.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. We are just getting started.
The Malard Palooza is a out to kickoff. We'll have
the big introduction. We need our judge, by the where's
our judge? Do we have our judge? We need our
we have a celebrity judge, you'll be calling in here
as well, representing the people. So we'll get to that.
To Mallard Palooza. I'm not sure who's the lead off act.
I see our judge has arrived. I love is weed Man.
(13:18):
I don't think weed Man's in. I don't think he's
in the Malapaloosa.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
He's flexing around on his phone there in Miami, so
he's not entered. For some reason, weed Man did not
enter the Malapusa. But the opening act, well, the big introduction,
it is gonna be one of an amazing night of entertainment.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
You never know what you can get.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Unlike those other Bland logos we just talked about, this
is not Bland and if it sucks, we'll just rip them. Okay,
we'll rip them apart if we have to, because the
one goal is entertainment. That's what matters here. It's a
radio show. You got to be entertaining. Put the show
as in entertainment in there. We'll get to that. The kickoff,
the Mallard Palooza, we'll get to it, and we will
do it next.
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm specific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 6 (14:04):
Hey, we're Covino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day
five to seven pm Eastern.
Speaker 3 (14:09):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 6 (14:10):
We never have enough time to get to everything we
want to get.
Speaker 7 (14:12):
To and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
Yeah, you blubber list name in me.
Speaker 6 (14:27):
Well you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
Well, it's a Cavino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also gonna talk
life and relationships. And if Rich and I are arguing
about something or we didn't have enough time, it will
continue on our after show called over Promised.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
Well, if you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make
sure you check out over Promised and also uncensored, by
the way, So maybe we'll go at it even a
little harder. It's gonna be the best after show podcast
of all time.
Speaker 7 (14:55):
There you go over promising, Remember you could see on YouTube,
but definitely let join us. Listen Over Promised with Cadino
and Rich on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or just It's.
Speaker 2 (15:05):
Kind of like Jim Rome back in the nineties, but
it's you know, it's overnight. It's Hi Bill Miller, and
it is the Ben Mallor Show about to kick off
the Malor Palooza twenty twenty five, the biggest night in
overnight sports radio all summer long.
Speaker 3 (15:23):
The moment many people wait all year.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Four has arrived and you are locked in and be
given be part of this.
Speaker 7 (15:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (15:31):
We're not taking many calls other than the acts. We
have so many acts we have to get them all in.
You can judge though you have an ear. You can
tell what's good and what's not good. Out We'll let
you play along. You can give us real time feedback
and what you like, what you don't like. You can
critique the judges. All of that available in real time.
It is a benefit of working the third shift, flying
(15:54):
the Red Eye flight with us at Ben Mahllor on
the X Machine at and Malar Lorena FSR Tech Queen
and Coop at a Bronco fan We were thinking about
using the mallard Palooza hashtag to try to get that
trending on X because most people are sleeping, But we
(16:15):
realize most people listening can't spell malar palooza, so that
won't work. Unfortunately, disappointing. And now back to it all, Right,
back to what we go, and here we are. We've arrived.
The moment is here. Welcome one and all, young and
old to the grand Cunival of the absurd, the neon flashing,
(16:39):
snore smashing, caffeine fueled bananza. That is the one and old.
The malor Palooza has arrived. And this is not your
average late night lounge.
Speaker 8 (16:52):
Ack.
Speaker 2 (16:52):
This is not some acting sheboygan. No, no, no, no no.
We got a little bit of everything here, the unofficial
It really is the unofficial Olympics of the insomniac life,
and really a celebration, if you will, of the people
that are brave enough to step behind their smartphone and
scream like lunatics while no one's paying attention here. Well,
(17:15):
most people are sleeping, and we do thank everyone that participates.
I'm surprised every year we've done this. The amount of
people that have stepped up, because most of you get
ripped to bits by those of us that are judging
because most of the accents are terrible. So we understand that.
And you know, every song I think sounds a little
(17:35):
better in your head at two in the morning. It
just sounds better at two in the morning. So what
is the Malard Palooza? For those of you that are
new to our store. Welcome, We've been here a while,
but you're your new customer, so thank you glad that
you have stopped by here, and we advise you to
buckle up. And it's a variety show, very chaotic, the
(17:56):
Mallard Palooza. It's got the charm of a raccoon, very charming,
maybe like a tuxedo wearing raccoon, you know, formal raccoon exactly.
We've got singing check right. We've got comedy, well depends
what you think is funny. We've got that. We've got
animal acts, we've got poetry.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
We have a little bit of everything. I don't even
know all the ss.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
I have a rough idea what's coming up, but I
don't even know. We have legends form Malard Palooza's past.
Like Kathy and Madison, I know she's back the hey
Mona she is. She has submitted an act for this
year's Mallapullusa. Will she become the breakout star?
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Who knows?
Speaker 5 (18:40):
So?
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Again, the malaplusa is it's a talent show with a
blatant disregard to the talent part of it. The key
part is the show part. And that's what it's about,
right people. We have marked the full name guy, he's
signed up, he's got his harmonica. I'm sure somebody will
bring a kazoo in here and do that. Who knows.
(19:00):
So we're here for you and every act will be judged.
Every act will be judged because it's a show and
we have the now what we want from the judges,
the sacred mountain of judging here we've got, obviously equality,
We do want quality, want entertainment. And what I think
is the most important is the razzle dazzle. You got
(19:23):
to bring the razzle dazzle right And then the judges
that are involved in this, now me be me Ben
High your favorite gas bag, unless it's not so that
would be me. We've got Kooper Loop, a returning judge
here Lorena as well, representing the hell and representing the people.
A classically trained pianist known professionally by the way as
(19:47):
inco war You can find him at inco Warrior dot com.
I don't know if he wants us to give that out.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
We just did. Oops.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
Performed throughout the United States at famous concert halls, also
around the world in place like France, Germany, the Netherlands, Bulgaria,
I don't know where that is, Russia, Taiwan, Japan. Of
course his peru is homeland there and uh, just legendarybody.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
This guy legit, this is legit.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
He's performed at the Great Hall of Moscow Conservatory, the
Philharmonic Hall in Saint Petersburg, Russia. And now he's on
the Malor Paluza. He's returning Inca Terror. Hello, inca terror.
Speaker 4 (20:25):
Then I do have to say one thing though. I
just checked and it looks like the San Diego State
AZTECS still exists.
Speaker 3 (20:33):
Oh that's true, they do, they do. They do still exist.
See that's good. Tying into the he's tying into the
Mala Monola InKo terror.
Speaker 4 (20:41):
Yeah, so I'm gonna I'm going to remain offended until
there's A College INCA team.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
You should well you of course you're the INCA Terror
INCA Warriors.
Speaker 4 (20:51):
I'm rooting for the saddleback Incas.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Said back they got woke, they changed they were called
the Gauchos. When I went there they changed their name
to like the Bobcat or something like that.
Speaker 3 (21:02):
It was a gut show.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
I mean, like, anyway, well, you're here, INCA and what
gigs have you done recently?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
We have not spoken a long time. You were in here.
Was very nice to meet you.
Speaker 2 (21:10):
You came by, said hello, and hopefully when you travel here,
I do want to see you perform at some point
here when you're out and the wife is actually hanging
out monitoring everything, and we'd love to see your perform
when you're back in California.
Speaker 3 (21:22):
So you gotta let us know, give us heads on it.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
I definitely will, and I think I actually will be
in LA in the next year or two, so looking
forward to that. Yeah, I'm adding a Korea and Hong
Kong thiss fall to the list of countries.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
So nice, all right, and you've you've performed all over
the place we know, and you're very town. This guy's
amazing the ability that he has on a piano and
so great, and we will be judging on a scale
of one to ten as we normally do now ten
would be the pinnacle.
Speaker 3 (21:56):
Ten would be amazed.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
So people have good tars and different instruments and all
that stuff. If they're able to play it, that would
be good. And so really the key part where the
rubber meets the road is the razzle dazzle, the ras
mataz as we.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
Like to call it.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
There and a lot of razzle turns to frazzle, which
is a problem, right, Anko, that's a problems.
Speaker 4 (22:17):
Yeah, yeah, it's hilarious.
Speaker 3 (22:19):
And I want you to know that.
Speaker 2 (22:20):
We might not take this seriously, but I got email
from people who were still upset about something Inca Terra
said years ago about them and he's still better Anca
about something you said about their act. So people remember,
they remember what we say, and so these people are
prepared and all that stuff. So we're very excited that
the night is young, the circus is here. It's the
(22:42):
Mallard Palooza. And who's in the leadoff chair? So we're
now cool? Which direction should we go on? This is
the Milkman, our leadoff guy? Are we started with the
milk manchon. We have an at large bit we had
to have. We have some at large add ons that
called up at the last minute that want to be
part of this.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
All right, well, actually we have an open well to
play the open. Here we go. We have imaging professionally
done imaging.
Speaker 8 (23:04):
Shine.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
What I do is say, yeah, you know what I mean, like.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
Show us what you got there. This is malar Paloosa
and now here's your host, Ben Mallock.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
All we're off to the races with the Malapalooza. Now
we did get a tune sent in. Now this is
not for the judges to consider, but I just want
to give you a taste of what's out there. And
Mallard prop guy, who I thought he was going to
be here tonight, but I guess we couldn't get him in.
But malaprop guy a big fan of the show, big
supporter of the show. He sat in last year. I
(23:43):
believe he was the seat filler last year for the malapus.
I'm a very big fan of what we do here
and we love his contribution on a nightly basis. And
he he put a little diddy you know, he's actually
like a real musician and he put a little song together.
Let's play a little bit of it, and it's really
really good. I think there's a lot of eye in it,
but it's really I admitted it. But listen, this is
pretty good. Now A prop guy set to.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Here we go. I'm trying to talk into the not
sheve over the post. It's a big leading it's I
can talk here. We got everybody. Buckle up, buckle up,
a show, talent show, malocal loser. Time to go on
the bed.
Speaker 9 (24:36):
Show unless it's not smart, socking, pretty song that jokes
that go on and work weird fashion to show.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
All right, well taste and that is not for judging.
That was just sitting by Mallard prop guy. He wanted
us to hear that and promote the Malard palooza. So
thank you and you are ten I look at that.
My wife says, ten on that that's no.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
That isn't AI. That doesn't count right, we're not counting AI.
Speaker 10 (25:19):
I feel like there should be an AI category no.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
Because then we're gonna encourage A. I don't want to
encourage you. I want us.
Speaker 2 (25:24):
This is the whole point of the bit, is that
some you know, some dude sitting on a farm in Iowa.
Speaker 10 (25:30):
With his own two hands.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Exactly. That's what I want. Anybody could do AI. Who
cares about AI? I want to hear humans, just like
all you idiots that want robot ai umpires. I want humans.
I love humans. You tell them that's right. All right,
let's walk in our first act a leadoff chair boy.
What a difficult spot to be in. And man has
been entertaining us for years. He's had many bits on
(25:52):
the show with Marcel. He's gotten Marcel to say stupid
things and we love it.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
For that over the years, very entertaining all.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
And a half on then all right, point five he'll
be keeping track. Uh the seven seven? My wife says
a seven. She's I guess she's adding she wants to
be one of the judges easier.
Speaker 3 (29:09):
Uh, I'm gonna give it it was the first act.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
It was pretty good. It's always tough to go first.
I'm gonna give it a six. I'm gonna give it

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Lorena.
Speaker 10 (29:23):
Yeah, I thought it was really funny.
Speaker 12 (29:25):
I was laughing in here because he's a you know,

So you matched Dan guitar, Coop.
Speaker 13 (29:40):
Uh.
Speaker 14 (29:40):
I like the poppy impression. Uh, these I believe it.
I believe it was a sir scratch off impression.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
It was.
Speaker 14 (29:46):
Yeah, and see that's I I felt like it could
have been a number of different callers that one.
Speaker 3 (29:52):
Yeah.
Speaker 15 (29:53):
So I'm I'm gonna give it a six.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Six all right. So that's so do the math on
that so six. I will not do the math because
I we use Mallard math, but we have six and
a half.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Seven. I gave it a six.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Loreina gave it a six and a half, and Coop
gave it a six.

All right, Well, good luck.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
Melkman Mike, thank you, a good job by you. There
you go seven from me, Yeah the wife thirty two,
thirty two. The combined score opening act gets a thirty two.
We have a late I believe this is a late submission.
Our next act. You listen to our live coverage. All
the networks wanted this, but we are the only ones
(30:30):
that have a Fox Sports Radio, sparing no expense to
give you this entertainment. The Mallard Paloos, all the networks.
We're trying to get it. Let's welcome in our next act,
a last minute submission. He does not use props, he
uses profanity, he doesn't use tricks. He uses foul words,
just the power of the human mind and a very
(30:50):
dirty lexicon. Prepared to be stunned by Tony in the
Bay Area. Tony, your next up? Are you ready?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Tony?
Speaker 8 (31:00):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (31:01):
Go ahead, Tony.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
Did you hear David Vessey's opinion about foul balls?
Speaker 8 (31:07):
He thinks they're a little salty? Thanks, Ben, Okay, look
at that.
Speaker 2 (31:15):
Let's go to the judges scorecard and could tear your thoughts.
One joke from Tony and the Bay Area.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
One joke.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Brevity is the soul of wit, as they say, uh, so,
you know I'm going to give it a four.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
You're the four, all right? The Vassay joke, of course,
taking shots at this show.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
He's the host of Dodger Talk, and we normally come
on after Dodger Talk on our affiliate in Los Angeles.
I've known Veassay since he was an intern. He takes
shots at me all the time, while meantime he's coddling
Dodger players and the Dodger I don't have. If you
noticed the last couple weeks, they blow, They're terrible, got
swept by the Brewers. So he brought up, as I
love that he holds a grudge. Would you give him again? Inca,
(31:59):
you give him a four? All right, I'm gonna give him.
I'm gonnave him a solid five because I love the
fact he's got my back and I love that Lorena.
Speaker 12 (32:09):
I love a good salty ball joke, Ben, So I
gotta give him a six.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
All right. So six happening good?
Speaker 10 (32:16):
And he didn't cuss.
Speaker 3 (32:18):
I'm very pleased and shocking. He did not curse.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Said all the wife says of six a six. You
and Lorena both said, that's unbelievable. That's everydaylus cupolo, please, uh,
I gotta give it a three me three. Look, it
was he's defending the show, Coop, I know, but it
was one guy.
Speaker 15 (32:38):
It was one joke. The entire act was ten seconds
lost me.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
By the end of this, you're gonna wish they were
all one one joke.
Speaker 2 (32:44):
Okay, understand, Okay, we should thank Tony for only doing
one joke.
Speaker 5 (32:50):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
Basically, people are gonna be a fifteen minute stand up
sets here before we're done. You know that's gonna happen.
I agree with you. Brevity, as you said, and gets there.
Brevity is the key to this very important. So all right,
well everyone, what is.
Speaker 3 (33:04):
The score on that? But that was twenty four? All right?
Speaker 2 (33:06):
So in second place, our friend Tony in the Bay Area?
Hold on there, Inka terror, We will press on. We
have our next comedy act.

All right, well, we'll have our comedy act and one
of our younger listeners staying up late.

(35:54):
it we go, and we do have more acts coming

to take care of. There was some sports going on
and cross the way there across a big body of
water what used to be called the British Open, but
God forbid, we call the British Open. It's the Open Championship.
But let's go now to Royal Portbrush. I believe is
that I think that's anyway. Here is the end, the
(36:17):
big win. Take a listen to play. It is the
tire Iraq play of the night.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
The tap in Scottie Scheffler. He's now joined the company
of golf's greats. He is the champion of the Open
Royal Port Rush Part Rush five.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Here he won the Claret jug which will collect dust
on a shelf somewhere in his home. But that is
the third career Grand Slam leg for Scottie Scheffler, one
of the most boring human beings in sports. Congratulations to him.
And that is the ti Iraq play of the day,
Playing the night. For over forty years, Tyraq has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
(37:01):
where they drive, ship fast and freedback by free road
hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation,
tire ract dot Com the way tire buying should be.
Back to the Malapalooza, we go some very interesting feedback
from the p ones on the exp ma sheet. We
don't have time for that right now because we must
get back to the next act.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
Very important.
Speaker 2 (37:23):
We're doing God's work here putting people that are entertaining
you on the radio, and we have inca terror are
classically trained judge who is his pianist, and he's here
as well. But up next he's a juggler, a contortionist,
a human beat box, and somehow he does it all
at once.
Speaker 3 (37:44):
Buggle up a wild ride. We go to the mean.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Streets of Bakersfield, California, and we welcome in Andrew Andrew
ninety seconds.
Speaker 3 (37:56):
The flour is yours.
Speaker 11 (37:57):
Go ahead, all right, beat going. I thought we'd got
to beat.
Speaker 15 (38:05):
Oh not me?
Speaker 11 (38:07):
Yeah, well all right, after a good start, all right,
I'll drop a freestyle with no beat. It's complete. Every
time I do this, you can hear the dog in
the next room. I get through this even though I
was in the er a little bit to go for
gall bladderstones. Man, it sucks, but I'm gonna drop a
poem and I'm gonna do it for Freddie Freeman and
(38:29):
Show Hey and David Bath say that's what I say.
And I'm gonna drop it, and I'm gonna stop it
because I got no beat, But I'll keep on going.
I'm walking with my feet upon the street. I love
poetry and I love hip hop like the Visionary said,
and that's how I'm gonna stop it. And Yo, my
eyes might be red.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Okay, there's Andrew Andrew in Baker's field a little different there,
a little freestyle hip hop, rappy.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
Think think it's there? Your your scale to ten? Here
Anka on our first act?
Speaker 8 (39:02):
What do you Yeah?
Speaker 4 (39:03):
I think that the emphasis is on the word free.
So I needed that beat, and I think he could
have created one without Lorena. So I'm giving him a
two yeah.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
Give him a two yeah. So here's the thing, Andrew.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
It's never good when you start your bit by blaming
someone else right away, right, there's a lack of accountability.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
You should have let let you know when.
Speaker 14 (39:27):
He signed up a week ago. He did say he
wanted a rat beat and I failed to do that.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
Okay, you did not provide him with a rap beat, Okay,
as I will just judge him based on his performance.
I thought it was one of the worst things I've
ever heard. It was absolutely horrible. I'm gonna give him
a minus five is what I'm going to give Andrew.
A minus five.
Speaker 10 (39:43):
Lorena, Oh yeah, you know, I tried to write it.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
I did.
Speaker 12 (39:48):
I tried. I tried, but he did play with the
not having a beat into the rhyming. He did so
by playing on his toes. I'm going to give him
a little bit of points.
Speaker 10 (39:57):
Im gonna give him four four.
Speaker 2 (39:58):
Oh my god, uh, Coop, what do you?
Speaker 3 (40:02):
What do you think?
Speaker 15 (40:03):
Coop?
Speaker 14 (40:03):
Well, I mean you mentioned that he played it into
the rhyming. I didn't hear a lot of rhyming.
Speaker 3 (40:08):
He did mention his gallbladder. I don't think you rhymed
anything with gall.
Speaker 10 (40:11):
I don't said he loved poetry though, so that's nice.
Speaker 3 (40:14):
Maybe you should learn something.
Speaker 15 (40:19):
Yes, I'm gonna give him a five. Five?
Speaker 3 (40:23):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
All right, so basically you got a zero between me
and you, because my mind is five knocked your five
out and so that's that.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
Well, what we are four accident? Is this?
Speaker 2 (40:33):
What a what an hour to begin an get and
we were actually behind our like the pace, we're behind
the pace. We need to be right because we have
we recorded, we have we had the Milkman, we had
Tony the Bay.
Speaker 15 (40:42):
We still have a we need another score here.
Speaker 3 (40:44):
Oh ah, that's right. The wife says four. He says,
all right, why do you just agree with the loraina?
What's it's like a female thing.
Speaker 10 (40:50):
We're on the same page. We're on the same page.
Speaker 2 (40:53):
No, that was terrible, horrific, So total of ten, ten iratulations. Andrew,
you got a hen you think he'll make If he
makes the top four, we're all screwed, all right. If
Andrew ends up in the top four, we might not
have Malipalooza twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
This would be the final ever edition of the Malapalooza.
