Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. Welcome, it's our number.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
One of the original Recipe podcast, not on back order.
It's right here, ready for delivery into your ear drums.
We start with pro bouncy Ball. We're less than a
week away from the twenty twenty four NBA Draft and
Rich Paul, the agent for the James family, says.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
That lebron and Bronni are not a packaged deal. But
do you believe him?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Also, Pascal Siakam is going to sign a one hundred
and eighty nine million dollar contract, the max deal with
the Pacers. Is he worth that kind of investment? And
who's to blame for the NBA Finals dramatic ratings.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Decline year to year.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Will go there as well, All of it coming your way,
all right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
A manipulation situation. Welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
In the beginning of another night of the Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
We are in the air ywares.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
We take up bandwidth zooming in a vacuum at light speed,
coast the coast, border, the border and beyond on the
mast and uproariously. Powerful microphones of fs are ammundating live
from the journey, the joyful journey through the overnight we're
(01:39):
broadcasting live from the tierrac dot com studios tyreract dot com.
We'll help you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping,
free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended installers
tire act dot com the way tirebind should be in
a ten thousand numbered The Comic book Guy can't.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
He can't count that high.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
He also thinks I'm gonna give him a shout out
because it was his birthday this week, and I'm not.
I'm not going to wish Andy the Comic Book Guy
a happy fortieth birthday. That's not how we operate in
these parts. But our lead this hour, I'm not a
morning Zoos show. Our lead this hour coming from pro
bouncy Ball. Say why I know, just bear with me. Okay,
we're six days away from the NBA Draft. Are you excited?
(02:26):
Are you come on? No, you're not excited neither min
But I do find one element to this mildly interesting,
and so that's what I'm gonna focus on. It's coming
up this Wednesday. This is our Thursday show where I
know on the West coast, we're heading into Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
It's still late Wednesday night, but we're we're.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Heading into Thursday, and so we're six days away this
coming Wednesday, the flag is up on the NBA Draft.
The Atlanta Hawks are on the clock with the No.
One overall pick. But the noise continues to be about
a backup, not a starter, not a starter, a backup
(03:11):
for a bad college basketball team in the University of
Southern California in that Big ten, not juggernaut.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
No, no, no. This goes way back there. And then
we're in the old Pac twelve back in the day.
But is there.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Some deplorable activity going on behind the scenes, a grand conspiracy,
if you will, for a.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Father son duo to don the court.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
So if you haven't hear the latest on this, and
perhaps you missed it because you actually have a life,
I'll fill in the blankster. So we have learned that
the agent for not only Lebron but also Scrownie BROWNI
says the father in this little ditty and the son
are not not a pack deal. They're not heading into
(04:03):
the draft now, Rich Paul, you talk about winning the lottery.
Rich Paul claims that Lebron James is off the idea
that he had openly discussed for years, for years that
he wants to play with his kid, Bronny, and according
to the spokes hack for Lebron, he said, Rich Paul,
(04:25):
if he does, he does, but if he doesn't, he doesn't.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Okay, that's like saying it is what it is, It
be what it be, all right.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Anyway, he says, if he does, he does, he does
it he doesn't, there's no deal made.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Rich Paul stated that it.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Is guaranteed that if the Lakers draft Bronny, the Lakers
draft Brownie at pick number fifty five, Lebron will resign
you right. If that was the case, then rich Paul said,
I would force them, the Lakers to take him at
number seventeen. It's not off the table at this point
from what I've heard. He says, the Lebron James family
(05:08):
does not need leverage. No leverage, I don't need it.
The Lakers can draft Bronni, he said, and Lebron doesn't
re sign Neverige Paul also later on said that Lebron
is not going to go to Phoenix on a minimum deal.
He didn't say Lebron's not going to Phoenix. He just
said Lebron will not sign for the minimum contract. That
(05:31):
was his commisation and squashed that. So let us discuss
lot unpack here the question.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Let's get to the meat of the matter.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Rich Paul says, Lebron James and Scrannie Bronni are not
a package.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Deal, do you believe the agent?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
So I've got Tony Sperano, a box office and criminal indictment,
and we'll combine all of these things together and we're
going to make the amazing dish of spaghetti and meatballs.
Spaghetti meat It's kind of like Lebron and Bronni, right,
spaghetti meatballs, peanut butter and jelly. But we are agnostic
(06:10):
on this one. We are AGNOSTI. Lebron and Bronni side
by side is good theater for the NBA.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The NBA is in the theater business. They're in the
show business.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And that makes sense, even though Bronni has no business
being drafted.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
The guy sucks. But speaking of sucking, you have to
be a total room if you believe there is no
funny business going.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
On right now behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And if you're that person that thinks, oh no, this
is all on the up and up, then the village
is missing their idiot.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Okay, they are if you look at the clues.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
The Lakers are this close you can't see my fingers,
but they're this close to hiring Lebron's podcast pal as coach,
who also has no buses.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Is coaching in the NBA. So why would they do
that if Lebron was going to leave? So what's really
going on here? Oh, here's what we believe is going on.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
As I understand that Lebron is working the back channels
here Tony Serrano style, right, the Sopranos back in the day,
like a mob boss, flexing his influence, hobnobbing with who
he needs to hobnob with, the executive by proxy, but
he always has plausible deniability. So well, I'm not the GM,
(07:32):
I'm not the owner, okay, but he is the puppeteer
and Bronni James.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
This guy.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Have you have you seen what he did both the
eyeball test and the statistics. Oh my god, I mean,
maybe he can get a job playing overseas somewhere because
of his dad. That's what should happen. But it's nepotism.
Happens in Hollywood, happens in sports, And you can change.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
My mind if you want, My goodness terrible, All right,
now we.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Turn the page to the as my old mentor said
back in the day, the High Speed Sports Wire, and
we are hearing now Pascal Siakam. Gotta be careful how
I say that name because of one of our callers
from Brooklyn. But Pascal Siakam is set to ink a
four year, one.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Hundred and eighty nine million dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Max extension with the Indiana basketball team. That's going to
happen next month. Siakam can't sign the deal till July sixth.
You talk about first world problems. That's when the free
agency moratorium period ends, which for some reason the NBA
still has. Now Siakam is going to get that almost
one hundred and ninety million dollar max contract with the Pacers.
(08:48):
Is he worth that kind of investment, that kind of capital.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Well, I am a believer.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You are worth what you can get, and this is
what he can get. The better question, though, is will
the Siakam laed Pacers find more playoff glory?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
And the answer to that is unlikely.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Feeling pretty good, right, they smell themselves a little bit
very for Tuitius playoff run. Here a fluky year for
the Pacers. Pascal Siakam, Here's the way I would describe me.
He's a good co star. He's a good coat star.
He's not a leading man. And my issue with this,
(09:29):
and it's not my money, it's his money. Good for
him and the Pacers clearly think he can produce for them,
but it's the b oe, it's the box office, and
the eyeballs doesn't sell tickets. Nobody said I gotta go
out and see Team X because Pascal Siakam's on the team.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
So that doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
And I don't know any man, woman or child other
than DNA relations who's like, I gotta watch the game
over there. I'm gonna turn that game on because Pascal
Siakim's playing.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
He's a solid player.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Does it really help the business in terms of money?
You didn't generate money for you. He's certainly making a
lot of money. It's just not spectacular, all right. Last word,
here we go to TV land and that is where
the report card is. In the twenty twenty four NBA
Playoffs saw the downward dog, or in this case, the
(10:23):
downward dive, a significant reduction in consumers shopping at the store.
The viewership compared to last year twenty twenty three down.
The ratings dropped eleven percent overall viewership. I myself was
like twelve percent down. So who's the blame. Who's the
blame for the NBA Finals of twenty twenty four the
(10:45):
ratings decline. So this is rather simple. It's not that difficult.
It is a straw poll. It is a how popular
are you contest pulse of the people. And the people
have spoken and they have determined that you ain't it.
You got your little trophy. Congratulations, But it is a
(11:06):
criminal indictment of the faux stars, the bumbling of the bag,
the audience bag.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Here.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Now, Jason Tatum has a lot of endorsements. I go
to the store and I see his face on potato
chips and all kinds of other crap. But Jason Tatum,
despite all of that, he is also not appointment viewing.
And Jalen Brown, for all of his trophies that he
won this postseason, he doesn't bring the boys.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
To the yard. He does not bring the audience there.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
And then you've got Luka Doncik, International Man of Mystery,
all time great player. Well, it does appear that he
does not play well in Peoria. That's a problem. You
gotta play well in Peori and even the flat earther
bad guy who I was so happy I almost overdosed
and shot it watching him go down and being unable
(12:04):
to handle the fans in Boston and melting under the
immense pressure, the bright lights of the Hecklers throwing Raspberry's
his direction, Flat earther Kyrie Irving and all of his
kookiness did not budge the needle. So that is all
of it, the indictment for Tatum, Brown, Don Chick and Irving.
(12:27):
And remember that's the matchup TV wanted when we got
to the final four. That's who they wanted to play.
It would have been a doomsday scenario if it had
been Indiana and Minnesota. They wanted that matchup. They got
the matchup they wanted it the final four point and
it's still crumbled in their hands. It is the Ban
(12:50):
Maler Show. If you'd like to be part of this
speak easy. Rules are in effect, but the lines are
open right now atbra Cadabra, Hope is focusing to be
part of the show.
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Now.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
The experts, the consultants who think they're experts, they tell
us that the chances of you consuming this product next
hour are pretty low. And then if you're still with
us in our three, oh my god, and there's almost
no chance you'll be listening in hour number four, So
you're pretty much here now, and you'll listen for a
little while longer, and then you'll either go to bed

will issue a mia kolpa on his wrong analysis of
the Stanley Cup Final and how America's team, the Edmonton
Oilers are on the cusp of a tremendous comeback and
Eddie was wrong about that.

A he's an expert on Kiss.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Super fan of the show. You don't have to be jealous, Eddie.
I'm not got a lot of people upset in Kansas City. Eddie,
you like to annoy. What do you have against Kansas City?
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You disrespected the royals people were upset in Kansas City
that you wouldn't give the royal.
Speaker 6 (16:27):
And how have they done since then?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
By the way, that's not the pointed.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
They've they've gone right now, not the point, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
And now your lack of knowledge on basic geography of
Kansas City is also upsetting to the people of Kansas City.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Eddy, So what do you said? So you say, I
got I got an email for people that know you.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Lie about that all the time. So I don't know
if you're telling the truth or not.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
How do I lie about it?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
He wants to send it to you. Sure, Okay, I'll
send it to you. I had multiple emails from people said,
well how come Eddie?
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Multiple two Yes too.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
We only have seven people listening, Eddie, do you understand
do you not understand?
Speaker 1 (17:03):
I think it's mad on that. No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
After you started giving WNBA scores, we have seven.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
Lead off the top of.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
That means that means twenty eight and a half percent
of our audience is upset with you, Eddie.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Two out of seven? Am I correct on that? I
think I'm right?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Twenty eight and a half percent upset with your anti
Kansas City byas Midnight, Walker writes in says rich call
former drug dealer. He can't help but lie. He'd be
in nobody if it wasn't if he wasn't Bronni's guy.
Midnight Walker says, yes, the King took him in in
a shocking decision. If it weren't for Lebron, he'd be
rotting in prison. Wow, that seems harsh, He says, like, Dari,
(17:42):
you read I just read it.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I didn't write it. You wrote it, Midnight Walker.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Jason in Kansas City, right since, says ten out of
ten on the Mallard monologue of the NBA ratings are
starting to hit rock bottom, and I'm not surprised.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Things will really look bad.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
If they start getting TV ratings on par with these
Stanley Cup Final every year. Jason in Kansas City says,
who else do we have a late night drug tester
not trug dealer. Late night drug tester says Lebron is
going to over exert himself in order to protect his
kid from being embarrassed. Snap, crackle or pop will happen
(18:18):
before New Year's Day, says the Late night drug tester.
Mister Luciano writes and says nine point nine out of
ten on the Mall of Monologue, Benjamin, the Lakers need
to cut ties with Lebron and just move on. By
the way, see you guys in Vegas and augxt oh
miss any big news. Mister Luciano will be hanging out
with us. He was at a previous Male of meeting
(18:39):
where we met him, but he will be in Sin
City with us on August third, that Saturday, we'll be
hanging out and have a grand time.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
How's it looking for attendance? You got an idea?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I have no idea, but I know people have said
they're gonna fly in, but I believe it when they
actually show up. I did get a message from Big Lou.
He's on number two as well. He wanted me to
do a shout out. I'm like, I don't do shout outs.
But he has this idea that they can do an
after party. Some of the big fans of the show
can do an after party, and we're gonna be in
(19:11):
Vegas on August thirty. He said, the minor league team,
not the Athletics. That's gonna be the new minor league
team that gets to Vegas. But the current minor league
team knows the Aviators are playing a game that night,
and Big Lou was thinking about getting a suite and
getting some listeners to kind of hang out in the
in the suite. But it's not free. It's not like
(19:31):
Lou is gonna buy the suite and then that's it.
I mean, he needs people to pay at he's charging.
But you get like food, and I think he said
unlimited food that got my attention and drinks.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Is that possible you can get anymore? You don't.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
You don't really eat anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
No, I know, But I still in my head flashed
back to my glory days, Eddie, not my salad days,
my M and M days, my butterfinger days, my potato
chip days. I used to eat like Lorraina, back in
the day when I'd have subs sandwich is delivered to
the radio station at midnight.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
But unlike Lorena, you don't eat just like three bites
and then you're done. You would eat all of it.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
No, I'd eat the whole thing and then I'd order more.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
Now I'm gonna get then gives the rest of it
to coop.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
Yeah, it's a good system.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, But in my heyday, I would be like, all right,
I'm gonna I'm gonna go to I don't know Carls,
but I like the Windy's fries or I like to
I like the McDonald's fries better, so I'll go. I'll
do two fast food places that might peak any Sometimes
I would do three because maybe I wanted like something
from Taco Bell or something, and i'd go there.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Well, I would tell you that's crazy, but I won't.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
Well, but then you don't have they're not the same
like level of freshness.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
That is correct, and that is where that is actually
how I great point, Coop. That's how I came up
with my ten minute rule for fast food.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
That you have to have to be like next door
to each other for you to do this.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Exactly you and there there have to be no line.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
But he said, tell me I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Ten minutes. Fast food's great. It's not cheap anymore. It's
very expensive now. But I just eat it all the time,
and every minute past ten minutes that you don't eat it,
it gets progressively worse.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
I would, I would agree with that, but there's there's
certain things that hold up better than others, like Taco Bell.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
You got to have that right away pretty much get soggy.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Yeah, yeah, but like you know, a mcdonald'sberg.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
That ever, it doesn't great the end of the fries
don't go back.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I mean they look the same. I don't know. I
don't want to taste the same.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
And if you're interested in that, Big Lue way, I
believe he requested you contact me Ben Malors Show at
gmail dot com if you're interested, and then I can
pass that on to Big Lou. He says, it'll if
you want to go that minor league game. And I
have nothing to do with this. Just for the record,
this is just Big Lou, who's a fan of the show,
friend of the show.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
We've known Lou for years.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Lou such a fan of the show. He watched Hot
Eddie play hockey. That's how big a fan of the show,
Blu is.
Speaker 6 (22:04):
Of course it helps he like lives across the street
from the hockey ring.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You don't have to ruin his story, Eddie. I mean,
that's a nice thing. You know.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
If if you were playing hockey in my front yard,
I wouldn't even look out the window.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
I don't think I think you would look. I don't
believe that.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Maybe the goof you, but anyway, one hundred laughing at Coop,
you know.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Just's the kind of guy that if you went on
the ice rink, he'd be holding on the boards like
those little kids are. Come on, I can skate. Let's go,
Let's get on. Let's skates on, Let's go. Yeah, I
can get out there on the eye. Let's see what
you got.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Only if you have that firefighter helmet.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
Eddie, I can only skate with figure skates. Though I
can't skate.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
He's a little ballerina all right. Anyway, it is the
band match again.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
If you're interested in that, and let me know and
we'll I'll forward your information to Big Lou. But it's
August third. It's a Nike give so well have the
meet and eating then after that. So if you're interested
is that that's not a shout out. That's more of
a mention, don't. I don't do shout outs. That was
more of a mention on the postgame show. Now, these
postgame events are legendary. The one we did, Eddie, when
(23:14):
you set that one up in La there was a
big time postgame party at that hotel. From what I understand,
a lot of debauchery that took place at that home.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Did not We were not there. No, we were not there.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
I heard stories from people about the things that took
place there with.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
He didn't get.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
The spit bag put on his head, though, So it
wasn't that.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
It wasn't Yeah, it was just an average night for him. Yeah,
and we'd not heard the latest on Jay Dot's legal troubles.
Hopefully he'll call up. But maybe he can't call up
because he's incarcerated. Who knows, I have no idea. We

Speaker 6 (23:53):
My favorite part about what he called in was telling
us his tales of you know, getting involved with the law.
Was his girlfriend yelling in the background.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
He did it, but it really.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
I can't remember.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
He couldn't remember what happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows
the man that she's there. She does clearly. Yes.

Speaker 6 (24:22):
Ben Mahler's w NBA Game of the Night, Come on
in FEVA that FEVA beat the Mystics eighty eight eighty one.
But who cares? What did Caitlin Clark do. That's all
we care about. She had a double double with eighteen
points and twelve rebounds. The Fever have won three in
a row. The Fever have won three in a row.
(24:43):
And now time for a fun fact.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Heyn Maler, fun fact.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Turn the transmitter back on after that score?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
All right, here we go, Here we go, fun fact time.
The knuckle is back in baseball. I was watching the
Podre game again to the Fighting Phills afternoon game.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Matt Waldron, knuckle ball.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Pitcher on the mound for the San Diego baseball team,
and he was dealing against baseball's top team, the Fighting Phills.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
An impressive outing in this game, and over his last.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Eight starts, the knuckleball pitcher for the Padres, Matt Waldern,
has an earned run average of under two of under two.
He held the Phillies to just one run over seven
innings in his last out in here and forty nine
and a third innings pitch over his last eight starts,
(25:38):
and he are of one point eight two. Holy Tom
Candiatti batman, as he is, he's getting done. He's dealing
for the Padres. Is he going to be r a
dicky good. The last cy young winner who threw the
knuckleball was R. A. Dickey for the New York Metropolitans
(26:01):
back in the day, played for the Blue Jays as well.
But Matt Walden getting into that's my fun fact of
the hour. Let's take a call, why not, it is
a call in show, and then I'll get to my.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Favorite story of the day.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Let's say hello to Shane who's listening to us in Australia.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Hello Shane, Welcome. Shane is gone. Apparently he just saw
well he.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Was in Melbourne, Eddie, and that phone call costing him
enough to pay his mortgage in Melbourne. We'll call back,
Shane if you get a chance, and we'll try to
get you on right away, unless we don't. Unless we don't,
Let's say hello to way guy with a great nickname,
the Tuna in Laguna.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Hello, Tuna in Laguna. Welcome. Okay, apparently he's gone too.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
Oh my god. Rule if we get a third drop
we know, call it.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Call Yeah, we could do, call it for radio off
the third guy's bag. Tuna called back. Oh he called back. Sorry, Eddie,
tuna called back. You can't.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
It's hard to catch a tuna. But we caught the tuna. Hello,
tuna in Laguna.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
The predator and baptist you know, fish animal. But hey,
real quick, Ben, I respect everything you said earlier today,
and I'm gonna get to the Renters in the second.
And they dogged the bullet and didn't even know they dodged.
It's like when a tuna doesn't grab a fish that
has a hook on it. First off, you're right, NBA
(27:34):
has been so bad the last two years. It's worse
than WWE. Remember when WWE had like undertake over Stone
Gold and now it's like Steve Smith versus John Johnson.
It's absolutely terrible, taking over the world shortly and it's
just gonna happen. But it is sad that the Pistons
have more money than the Renters. They they're the same
(27:58):
team that took the wash up Grisson contractor how does
the Pistons have this much more money than the Renters
and the Renters actually dodged the bullet. This makes the
Renters look good because they didn't pay Dan Hurley, who
was trying to job them for a fucking.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Oh right, comback, comeback. T The tuna is drinking Eddy.
I think the tuna is having alcohol. Well, the answer
is answer your question the you know tune in Laguna,
I know the answer. The Pistons are not a family
run business. Jeanie Buss is living off her daddy's money.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He's dead now. And that's the family. That's the nest egg.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
The Pistons are owned by this guy, Tom Gores, who
lives here in l A and Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
But he's a private.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Equity guru and he's worth nine billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
That's the.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Real owner. He's not a renter. He's an honor guy.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yeah, that's how he can afford to pay money Williams
sixty five million dollars to go walk walk away.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I mean, it's insane.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
But here's a good thing for the renters, the Lakers,
the renters. Here's a good thing. We got a four
year deal with the duke bag and we just got
to pay him forty million and he'll be gone in
three and Lebron will be gone and then we'll actually
have a chance to come back to prominence, assuming that
we can actually sell the team to somebody who has money.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
But this is a.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Great thing for the Lakers. Actually, it's gonna be a
three to four year deal and this is gonna be
a done situation.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
And we can keep.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Telling yourself, but that's four years of your life that
are gonna vanish away.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I gotta leave it there. Tune in Laguna, thank you, sir.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
And the next time, I'm gonna wash your mouth out
with soap and water.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Okay, I'm gonna put a bar of soap in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
You got half a little bit, and then I'm gonna
I'm gonna pour lukewarm water into your mouth and you're
going to have to gargle.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
That's the plan. That is anyway. It is the Ben
Mahler Show. We will press on here time now for
the who am I Game? And we'll go to pro
bouncy ball one more time? Who am I? Game?

going with Todd Day as the answer. Nick and Wisconsin,
says Horace Grant. Now Patricia in Vegas. She says, you
just need to put two bars of soap in Tuna's mouth.
That came out over the raider. There's no way that.
(33:50):
I'm sure Loraina hit.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
The dump, but there's no way that came out over
the radio anyway. Eddie, do you have an answer, Eddie, Please?
Do you have an answer?
Speaker 6 (33:56):
Yes, it's former New Jersey Nets legend. Otis Birdsong?
Speaker 1 (34:00):
Is it? Otis bird song?
Speaker 7 (34:02):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (34:03):
No?
Speaker 1 (34:03):
That isn't direct?
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Well, Al Horford won the first title age thirty eighth
for the Celts. I'm the oldest player in NBA history
to win their first title. That would be Kevin Willis,
a twenty years of age with the old Willis with
the three.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
When I think of Kevin Willis, I think of the
San Antonio Spurs, unless I don't. But Kevin willis forty years,
nine months and nine days oldest player to win their
first NBA championship.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
So I don't even saw this or not. I love
this story. This is such a crazy story.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
And I saw this in Headless, but it I didn't
really pay close attention to it.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
So there's this.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Forty four year old woman, an American woman who traveled
to England and is accused of being a female assassin.
She unsuccessfully tried to shoot a boutique owner in Birmingham, England.
I don't even saw any Do you see this? You
probably didn't see this. You don't pay attention to the news.
But so I saw the story and I didn't really
(35:01):
pay much attention to it. And then, as Paul Harvey
would say back in the day, now you're about to
hear the rest of the story. It turns out this
forty four year old woman from America who failed as
an assassin in England, turns out she was an employee
of the Milwaukee Brewers. Holy Spaccoli Batman, Yes, tabloid in London.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Daily Mail loved The Daily Mail great.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
A lot of newspapers suck and they should all go
out of business, except the New York Post and the
Daily Mail.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
They're really good.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
But the Daily Mail reported this woman, Amy Betrow, worked
as an administrator for the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team, and
according to reports out of London, she's accused of being
a female assassin from America who tried to shoot this
man who owns a boutique in the gun jammed and
(35:59):
they they've been trying to find her. She made it
back to America, but they haven't been able to track
her down. Does this not seem.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Like it's going to be a movie? Right? It's crazy?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
The woman, according to the public records, she had a
place in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Why not she worked for.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
The Brewers modest place. She also has ties to Illinois
and I don't think the Brewers have commented on this.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
How do you think that happens?
Speaker 2 (36:31):
How does a rather nondescript forty four year old woman
from Wisconsin end up in London. Was she living a
double life for years and years and years. Maybe she's
gone around the world like killing people. I don't know,
or it's all a big misunderstanding. I don't think it's
a misunderstanding based on what I read. But maybe that
was just fiction and not nonfiction, even though it was
(36:52):
described as nonfiction. That is a cray crazy story.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
How he end up there? Like who calls you?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Is there like a post online like a TikTok post
or something like that. You have to go to the
dark web for that. She didn't kill these people, so
she's even if she gets caught, and the ways the
laws are in England, it's not like she's gonna get
that much jail time even if she's convicted. But still
you wonder what other things she has done. She's clearly
(37:23):
not that good at being an assassin because it didn't
work and all that.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
No comment from the Milwaukee Bruis.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
They didn't even say we were aware of the situation,
and we have no further comment at this time.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
They didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
I guess she's a former employee of the Brewers. This
reminds me a little bit much worse than this other story.
There was a guy about twenty years ago going around
killing people in the Middle East, and he had spent
time in America. And the photo that was going around
was him wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates hat.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
I remember that as a yes, great of all the
teams of all
Speaker 1 (38:02):
That photo was everywhere about twenty years ago.
Here we go. Welcome, it's our number.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
One of the original Recipe podcast, not on back order.
It's right here, ready for delivery into your ear drums.
We start with pro bouncy Ball. We're less than a
week away from the twenty twenty four NBA Draft and
Rich Paul, the agent for the James family, says.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
That lebron and Bronni are not a packaged deal. But
do you believe him?
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Also, Pascal Siakam is going to sign a one hundred
and eighty nine million dollar contract, the max deal with
the Pacers. Is he worth that kind of investment? And
who's to blame for the NBA Finals dramatic ratings.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
Decline year to year.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Will go there as well, All of it coming your way,
all right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
A manipulation situation. Welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
In the beginning of another night of the Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
We are in the air ywares.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
He can't count that high.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
He also thinks I'm gonna give him a shout out
because it was his birthday this week, and I'm not.
I'm not going to wish Andy the Comic Book Guy
a happy fortieth birthday. That's not how we operate in
these parts. But our lead this hour, I'm not a
morning Zoos show. Our lead this hour coming from pro
bouncy Ball. Say why I know, just bear with me. Okay,
we're six days away from the NBA Draft. Are you excited?
(02:26):
Are you come on? No, you're not excited neither min
But I do find one element to this mildly interesting,
and so that's what I'm gonna focus on. It's coming
up this Wednesday. This is our Thursday show where I
know on the West coast, we're heading into Thursday.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
It's still late Wednesday night, but we're we're.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Heading into Thursday, and so we're six days away this
coming Wednesday, the flag is up on the NBA Draft.
The Atlanta Hawks are on the clock with the No.
One overall pick. But the noise continues to be about
a backup, not a starter, not a starter, a backup
(03:11):
for a bad college basketball team in the University of
Southern California in that Big ten, not juggernaut.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
No, no, no. This goes way back there. And then
we're in the old Pac twelve back in the day.
But is there.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
Some deplorable activity going on behind the scenes, a grand conspiracy,
if you will, for a.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Father son duo to don the court.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
So if you haven't hear the latest on this, and
perhaps you missed it because you actually have a life,
I'll fill in the blankster. So we have learned that
the agent for not only Lebron but also Scrownie BROWNI
says the father in this little ditty and the son
are not not a pack deal. They're not heading into
(04:03):
the draft now, Rich Paul, you talk about winning the lottery.
Rich Paul claims that Lebron James is off the idea
that he had openly discussed for years, for years that
he wants to play with his kid, Bronny, and according
to the spokes hack for Lebron, he said, Rich Paul,
(04:25):
if he does, he does, but if he doesn't, he doesn't.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Okay, that's like saying it is what it is, It
be what it be, all right.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Anyway, he says, if he does, he does, he does
it he doesn't, there's no deal made.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Rich Paul stated that it.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Is guaranteed that if the Lakers draft Bronny, the Lakers
draft Brownie at pick number fifty five, Lebron will resign
you right. If that was the case, then rich Paul said,
I would force them, the Lakers to take him at
number seventeen. It's not off the table at this point
from what I've heard. He says, the Lebron James family
(05:08):
does not need leverage. No leverage, I don't need it.
The Lakers can draft Bronni, he said, and Lebron doesn't
re sign Neverige Paul also later on said that Lebron
is not going to go to Phoenix on a minimum deal.
He didn't say Lebron's not going to Phoenix. He just
said Lebron will not sign for the minimum contract. That
(05:31):
was his commisation and squashed that. So let us discuss
lot unpack here the question.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Let's get to the meat of the matter.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Rich Paul says, Lebron James and Scrannie Bronni are not
a package.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Deal, do you believe the agent?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
So I've got Tony Sperano, a box office and criminal indictment,
and we'll combine all of these things together and we're
going to make the amazing dish of spaghetti and meatballs.
Spaghetti meat It's kind of like Lebron and Bronni, right,
spaghetti meatballs, peanut butter and jelly. But we are agnostic
(06:10):
on this one. We are AGNOSTI. Lebron and Bronni side
by side is good theater for the NBA.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The NBA is in the theater business. They're in the
show business.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
And that makes sense, even though Bronni has no business
being drafted.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Right.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
The guy sucks. But speaking of sucking, you have to
be a total room if you believe there is no
funny business going.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
On right now behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
And if you're that person that thinks, oh no, this
is all on the up and up, then the village
is missing their idiot.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Okay, they are if you look at the clues.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
The Lakers are this close you can't see my fingers,
but they're this close to hiring Lebron's podcast pal as coach,
who also has no buses.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Is coaching in the NBA. So why would they do
that if Lebron was going to leave? So what's really
going on here? Oh, here's what we believe is going on.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
As I understand that Lebron is working the back channels
here Tony Serrano style, right, the Sopranos back in the day,
like a mob boss, flexing his influence, hobnobbing with who
he needs to hobnob with, the executive by proxy, but
he always has plausible deniability. So well, I'm not the GM,
(07:32):
I'm not the owner, okay, but he is the puppeteer
and Bronni James.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
This guy.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Have you have you seen what he did both the
eyeball test and the statistics. Oh my god, I mean,
maybe he can get a job playing overseas somewhere because
of his dad. That's what should happen. But it's nepotism.
Happens in Hollywood, happens in sports, And you can change.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
My mind if you want, My goodness terrible, All right,
now we.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Turn the page to the as my old mentor said
back in the day, the High Speed Sports Wire, and
we are hearing now Pascal Siakam. Gotta be careful how
I say that name because of one of our callers
from Brooklyn. But Pascal Siakam is set to ink a
four year, one.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
Hundred and eighty nine million dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Max extension with the Indiana basketball team. That's going to
happen next month. Siakam can't sign the deal till July sixth.
You talk about first world problems. That's when the free
agency moratorium period ends, which for some reason the NBA
still has. Now Siakam is going to get that almost
one hundred and ninety million dollar max contract with the Pacers.
(08:48):
Is he worth that kind of investment, that kind of capital.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Well, I am a believer.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
You are worth what you can get, and this is
what he can get. The better question, though, is will
the Siakam laed Pacers find more playoff glory?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
And the answer to that is unlikely.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Feeling pretty good, right, they smell themselves a little bit
very for Tuitius playoff run. Here a fluky year for
the Pacers. Pascal Siakam, Here's the way I would describe me.
He's a good co star. He's a good coat star.
He's not a leading man. And my issue with this,
(09:29):
and it's not my money, it's his money. Good for
him and the Pacers clearly think he can produce for them,
but it's the b oe, it's the box office, and
the eyeballs doesn't sell tickets. Nobody said I gotta go
out and see Team X because Pascal Siakam's on the team.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
So that doesn't happen.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
And I don't know any man, woman or child other
than DNA relations who's like, I gotta watch the game
over there. I'm gonna turn that game on because Pascal
Siakim's playing.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
He's a solid player.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Does it really help the business in terms of money?
You didn't generate money for you. He's certainly making a
lot of money. It's just not spectacular, all right. Last word,
here we go to TV land and that is where
the report card is. In the twenty twenty four NBA
Playoffs saw the downward dog, or in this case, the
(10:23):
downward dive, a significant reduction in consumers shopping at the store.
The viewership compared to last year twenty twenty three down.
The ratings dropped eleven percent overall viewership. I myself was
like twelve percent down. So who's the blame. Who's the
blame for the NBA Finals of twenty twenty four the
(10:45):
ratings decline. So this is rather simple. It's not that difficult.
It is a straw poll. It is a how popular
are you contest pulse of the people. And the people
have spoken and they have determined that you ain't it.
You got your little trophy. Congratulations, But it is a
(11:06):
criminal indictment of the faux stars, the bumbling of the bag,
the audience bag.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
Here.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Now, Jason Tatum has a lot of endorsements. I go
to the store and I see his face on potato
chips and all kinds of other crap. But Jason Tatum,
despite all of that, he is also not appointment viewing.
And Jalen Brown, for all of his trophies that he
won this postseason, he doesn't bring the boys.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
To the yard. He does not bring the audience there.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
And then you've got Luka Doncik, International Man of Mystery,
all time great player. Well, it does appear that he
does not play well in Peoria. That's a problem. You
gotta play well in Peori and even the flat earther
bad guy who I was so happy I almost overdosed
and shot it watching him go down and being unable
(12:04):
to handle the fans in Boston and melting under the
immense pressure, the bright lights of the Hecklers throwing Raspberry's
his direction, Flat earther Kyrie Irving and all of his
kookiness did not budge the needle. So that is all
of it, the indictment for Tatum, Brown, Don Chick and Irving.
(12:27):
And remember that's the matchup TV wanted when we got
to the final four. That's who they wanted to play.
It would have been a doomsday scenario if it had
been Indiana and Minnesota. They wanted that matchup. They got
the matchup they wanted it the final four point and
it's still crumbled in their hands. It is the Ban
(12:50):
Maler Show. If you'd like to be part of this
speak easy. Rules are in effect, but the lines are
open right now atbra Cadabra, Hope is focusing to be

us that the chances of you consuming this product next
hour are pretty low. And then if you're still with
us in our three, oh my god, and there's almost
no chance you'll be listening in hour number four, So
you're pretty much here now, and you'll listen for a
little while longer, and then you'll either go to bed

Uh no, and I lie from the tirat dot Com.
Fox Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Maller.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
That's what Ferg Dog told me. He says I'm the
hot he did.
Speaker 6 (16:07):
I bet he tells you a lot of things.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
Well, guy's an expert, he's.
Speaker 6 (16:10):
A he's an expert on Kiss.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Super fan of the show. You don't have to be jealous, Eddie.
I'm not got a lot of people upset in Kansas City. Eddie,
you like to annoy. What do you have against Kansas City?
Speaker 1 (16:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
You disrespected the royals people were upset in Kansas City
that you wouldn't give the royal.
Speaker 6 (16:27):
And how have they done since then?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
By the way, that's not the pointed.
Speaker 6 (16:30):
They've they've gone right now, not the point, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
And now your lack of knowledge on basic geography of
Kansas City is also upsetting to the people of Kansas City.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Eddy, So what do you said? So you say, I
got I got an email for people that know you.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Lie about that all the time. So I don't know
if you're telling the truth or not.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
How do I lie about it?
Speaker 2 (16:49):
He wants to send it to you. Sure, Okay, I'll
send it to you. I had multiple emails from people said,
well how come Eddie?
Speaker 6 (16:56):
Multiple two Yes too.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
We only have seven people listening, Eddie, do you understand
do you not understand?
Speaker 1 (17:03):
I think it's mad on that. No, no, no.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
After you started giving WNBA scores, we have seven.
Speaker 6 (17:11):
Lead off the top of.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
That means that means twenty eight and a half percent
of our audience is upset with you, Eddie.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
Two out of seven? Am I correct on that? I
think I'm right?
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Twenty eight and a half percent upset with your anti
Kansas City byas Midnight, Walker writes in says rich call
former drug dealer. He can't help but lie. He'd be
in nobody if it wasn't if he wasn't Bronni's guy.
Midnight Walker says, yes, the King took him in in
a shocking decision. If it weren't for Lebron, he'd be
rotting in prison. Wow, that seems harsh, He says, like, Dari,
(17:42):
you read I just read it.
Speaker 6 (17:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I didn't write it. You wrote it, Midnight Walker.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Jason in Kansas City, right since, says ten out of
ten on the Mallard monologue of the NBA ratings are
starting to hit rock bottom, and I'm not surprised.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Things will really look bad.
Speaker 2 (17:57):
If they start getting TV ratings on par with these
Stanley Cup Final every year. Jason in Kansas City says,
who else do we have a late night drug tester
not trug dealer. Late night drug tester says Lebron is
going to over exert himself in order to protect his
kid from being embarrassed. Snap, crackle or pop will happen
(18:18):
before New Year's Day, says the Late night drug tester.
Mister Luciano writes and says nine point nine out of
ten on the Mall of Monologue, Benjamin, the Lakers need
to cut ties with Lebron and just move on. By
the way, see you guys in Vegas and augxt oh
miss any big news. Mister Luciano will be hanging out
with us. He was at a previous Male of meeting
(18:39):
where we met him, but he will be in Sin
City with us on August third, that Saturday, we'll be
hanging out and have a grand time.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
How's it looking for attendance? You got an idea?
Speaker 2 (18:50):
I have no idea, but I know people have said
they're gonna fly in, but I believe it when they
actually show up. I did get a message from Big Lou.
He's on number two as well. He wanted me to
do a shout out. I'm like, I don't do shout outs.
But he has this idea that they can do an
after party. Some of the big fans of the show
can do an after party, and we're gonna be in
(19:11):
Vegas on August thirty. He said, the minor league team,
not the Athletics. That's gonna be the new minor league
team that gets to Vegas. But the current minor league
team knows the Aviators are playing a game that night,
and Big Lou was thinking about getting a suite and
getting some listeners to kind of hang out in the
in the suite. But it's not free. It's not like
(19:31):
Lou is gonna buy the suite and then that's it.
I mean, he needs people to pay at he's charging.
But you get like food, and I think he said
unlimited food that got my attention and drinks.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Is that possible you can get anymore? You don't.
Speaker 6 (19:46):
You don't really eat anymore.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
No, I know, But I still in my head flashed
back to my glory days, Eddie, not my salad days,
my M and M days, my butterfinger days, my potato
chip days. I used to eat like Lorraina, back in
the day when I'd have subs sandwich is delivered to
the radio station at midnight.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
But unlike Lorena, you don't eat just like three bites
and then you're done. You would eat all of it.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
No, I'd eat the whole thing and then I'd order more.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
Now I'm gonna get then gives the rest of it
to coop.
Speaker 7 (20:12):
Yeah, it's a good system.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, But in my heyday, I would be like, all right,
I'm gonna I'm gonna go to I don't know Carls,
but I like the Windy's fries or I like to
I like the McDonald's fries better, so I'll go. I'll
do two fast food places that might peak any Sometimes
I would do three because maybe I wanted like something
from Taco Bell or something, and i'd go there.
Speaker 6 (20:36):
Well, I would tell you that's crazy, but I won't.
Speaker 7 (20:39):
Well, but then you don't have they're not the same
like level of freshness.
Speaker 2 (20:43):
That is correct, and that is where that is actually
how I great point, Coop. That's how I came up
with my ten minute rule for fast food.
Speaker 6 (20:51):
That you have to have to be like next door
to each other for you to do this.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Exactly you and there there have to be no line.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
But he said, tell me I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (21:02):
Ten minutes. Fast food's great. It's not cheap anymore. It's
very expensive now. But I just eat it all the time,
and every minute past ten minutes that you don't eat it,
it gets progressively worse.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
I would, I would agree with that, but there's there's
certain things that hold up better than others, like Taco Bell.
Speaker 6 (21:20):
You got to have that right away pretty much get soggy.
Speaker 7 (21:23):
Yeah, yeah, but like you know, a mcdonald'sberg.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
That ever, it doesn't great the end of the fries
don't go back.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
I mean they look the same. I don't know. I
don't want to taste the same.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
And if you're interested in that, Big Lue way, I
believe he requested you contact me Ben Malors Show at
gmail dot com if you're interested, and then I can
pass that on to Big Lou. He says, it'll if
you want to go that minor league game. And I
have nothing to do with this. Just for the record,
this is just Big Lou, who's a fan of the show,
friend of the show.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
We've known Lou for years.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Lou such a fan of the show. He watched Hot
Eddie play hockey. That's how big a fan of the show,
Blu is.
Speaker 6 (22:04):
Of course it helps he like lives across the street
from the hockey ring.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
You don't have to ruin his story, Eddie. I mean,
that's a nice thing. You know.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
If if you were playing hockey in my front yard,
I wouldn't even look out the window.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
I don't think I think you would look. I don't
believe that.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Maybe the goof you, but anyway, one hundred laughing at Coop,
you know.
Speaker 6 (22:28):
Just's the kind of guy that if you went on
the ice rink, he'd be holding on the boards like
those little kids are. Come on, I can skate. Let's go,
Let's get on. Let's skates on, Let's go. Yeah, I
can get out there on the eye. Let's see what
you got.
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Only if you have that firefighter helmet.
Speaker 7 (22:41):
Eddie, I can only skate with figure skates. Though I
can't skate.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
He's a little ballerina all right. Anyway, it is the
band match again.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
If you're interested in that, and let me know and
we'll I'll forward your information to Big Lou. But it's
August third. It's a Nike give so well have the
meet and eating then after that. So if you're interested
is that that's not a shout out. That's more of
a mention, don't. I don't do shout outs. That was
more of a mention on the postgame show. Now, these
postgame events are legendary. The one we did, Eddie, when
(23:14):
you set that one up in La there was a
big time postgame party at that hotel. From what I understand,
a lot of debauchery that took place at that home.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
Did not We were not there. No, we were not there.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
I heard stories from people about the things that took
place there with.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
He didn't get.
Speaker 6 (23:33):
The spit bag put on his head, though, So it
wasn't that.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
It wasn't Yeah, it was just an average night for him. Yeah,
and we'd not heard the latest on Jay Dot's legal troubles.
Hopefully he'll call up. But maybe he can't call up
because he's incarcerated. Who knows, I have no idea. We
have the highest percentage of listeners blind and the highest
percentage of listeners who are this closed to going to
jail or in jail.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
My favorite part about what he called in was telling
us his tales of you know, getting involved with the law.
Was his girlfriend yelling in the background.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
He did it, but it really.
Speaker 6 (24:04):
I can't remember.
Speaker 1 (24:05):
He couldn't remember what happened. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she knows
the man that she's there. She does clearly. Yes.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 6 (24:22):
Ben Mahler's w NBA Game of the Night, Come on
in FEVA that FEVA beat the Mystics eighty eight eighty one.
But who cares? What did Caitlin Clark do. That's all
we care about. She had a double double with eighteen
points and twelve rebounds. The Fever have won three in
a row. The Fever have won three in a row.
(24:43):
And now time for a fun fact.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
Heyn Maler, fun fact.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Turn the transmitter back on after that score?
Speaker 2 (24:51):
All right, here we go, Here we go, fun fact time.
The knuckle is back in baseball. I was watching the
Podre game again to the Fighting Phills afternoon game.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Matt Waldron, knuckle ball.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
Pitcher on the mound for the San Diego baseball team,
and he was dealing against baseball's top team, the Fighting Phills.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
An impressive outing in this game, and over his last.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Eight starts, the knuckleball pitcher for the Padres, Matt Waldern,
has an earned run average of under two of under two.
He held the Phillies to just one run over seven
innings in his last out in here and forty nine
and a third innings pitch over his last eight starts,
(25:38):
and he are of one point eight two. Holy Tom
Candiatti batman, as he is, he's getting done. He's dealing
for the Padres. Is he going to be r a
dicky good. The last cy young winner who threw the
knuckleball was R. A. Dickey for the New York Metropolitans
(26:01):
back in the day, played for the Blue Jays as well.
But Matt Walden getting into that's my fun fact of
the hour. Let's take a call, why not, it is
a call in show, and then I'll get to my.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Favorite story of the day.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Let's say hello to Shane who's listening to us in Australia.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
Hello Shane, Welcome. Shane is gone. Apparently he just saw
well he.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Was in Melbourne, Eddie, and that phone call costing him
enough to pay his mortgage in Melbourne. We'll call back,
Shane if you get a chance, and we'll try to
get you on right away, unless we don't. Unless we don't,
Let's say hello to way guy with a great nickname,
the Tuna in Laguna.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Hello, Tuna in Laguna. Welcome. Okay, apparently he's gone too.
Speaker 6 (26:50):
Oh my god. Rule if we get a third drop
we know, call it.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Call Yeah, we could do, call it for radio off
the third guy's bag. Tuna called back. Oh he called back. Sorry, Eddie,
tuna called back. You can't.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
It's hard to catch a tuna. But we caught the tuna. Hello,
tuna in Laguna.
Speaker 3 (27:12):
The predator and baptist you know, fish animal. But hey,
real quick, Ben, I respect everything you said earlier today,
and I'm gonna get to the Renters in the second.
And they dogged the bullet and didn't even know they dodged.
It's like when a tuna doesn't grab a fish that
has a hook on it. First off, you're right, NBA
(27:34):
has been so bad the last two years. It's worse
than WWE. Remember when WWE had like undertake over Stone
Gold and now it's like Steve Smith versus John Johnson.
It's absolutely terrible, taking over the world shortly and it's
just gonna happen. But it is sad that the Pistons
have more money than the Renters. They they're the same
(27:58):
team that took the wash up Grisson contractor how does
the Pistons have this much more money than the Renters
and the Renters actually dodged the bullet. This makes the
Renters look good because they didn't pay Dan Hurley, who
was trying to job them for a fucking.
Speaker 2 (28:14):
Oh right, comback, comeback. T The tuna is drinking Eddy.
I think the tuna is having alcohol. Well, the answer
is answer your question the you know tune in Laguna,
I know the answer. The Pistons are not a family
run business. Jeanie Buss is living off her daddy's money.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
He's dead now. And that's the family. That's the nest egg.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
The Pistons are owned by this guy, Tom Gores, who
lives here in l A and Beverly Hills.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
But he's a private.
Speaker 2 (28:47):
Equity guru and he's worth nine billion dollars.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
That's the.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Real owner. He's not a renter. He's an honor guy.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Yeah, that's how he can afford to pay money Williams
sixty five million dollars to go walk walk away.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I mean, it's insane.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
But here's a good thing for the renters, the Lakers,
the renters. Here's a good thing. We got a four
year deal with the duke bag and we just got
to pay him forty million and he'll be gone in
three and Lebron will be gone and then we'll actually
have a chance to come back to prominence, assuming that
we can actually sell the team to somebody who has money.
Speaker 5 (29:27):
But this is a.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Great thing for the Lakers. Actually, it's gonna be a
three to four year deal and this is gonna be
a done situation.
Speaker 1 (29:35):
And we can keep.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
Telling yourself, but that's four years of your life that
are gonna vanish away.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
I gotta leave it there. Tune in Laguna, thank you, sir.
Speaker 2 (29:43):
And the next time, I'm gonna wash your mouth out
with soap and water.
Speaker 1 (29:46):
Okay, I'm gonna put a bar of soap in your mouth.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
You got half a little bit, and then I'm gonna
I'm gonna pour lukewarm water into your mouth and you're
going to have to gargle.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
That's the plan. That is anyway. It is the Ben
Mahler Show. We will press on here time now for
the who am I Game? And we'll go to pro
bouncy ball one more time? Who am I? Game?

a twenty years of age with the old Willis with
the three.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
When I think of Kevin Willis, I think of the
San Antonio Spurs, unless I don't. But Kevin willis forty years,
nine months and nine days oldest player to win their
first NBA championship.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
So I don't even saw this or not. I love
this story. This is such a crazy story.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
And I saw this in Headless, but it I didn't
really pay close attention to it.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
So there's this.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
Forty four year old woman, an American woman who traveled
to England and is accused of being a female assassin.
She unsuccessfully tried to shoot a boutique owner in Birmingham, England.
I don't even saw any Do you see this? You
probably didn't see this. You don't pay attention to the news.
But so I saw the story and I didn't really
(35:01):
pay much attention to it. And then, as Paul Harvey
would say back in the day, now you're about to
hear the rest of the story. It turns out this
forty four year old woman from America who failed as
an assassin in England, turns out she was an employee
of the Milwaukee Brewers. Holy Spaccoli Batman, Yes, tabloid in London.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
Daily Mail loved The Daily Mail great.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
A lot of newspapers suck and they should all go
out of business, except the New York Post and the
Daily Mail.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
They're really good.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
But the Daily Mail reported this woman, Amy Betrow, worked
as an administrator for the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team, and
according to reports out of London, she's accused of being
a female assassin from America who tried to shoot this
man who owns a boutique in the gun jammed and
(35:59):
they they've been trying to find her. She made it
back to America, but they haven't been able to track
her down. Does this not seem.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Like it's going to be a movie? Right? It's crazy?
Speaker 2 (36:12):
The woman, according to the public records, she had a
place in Wisconsin.
Speaker 1 (36:17):
Why not she worked for.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
The Brewers modest place. She also has ties to Illinois
and I don't think the Brewers have commented on this.
Speaker 1 (36:29):
How do you think that happens?
Speaker 2 (36:31):
How does a rather nondescript forty four year old woman
from Wisconsin end up in London. Was she living a
double life for years and years and years. Maybe she's
gone around the world like killing people. I don't know,
or it's all a big misunderstanding. I don't think it's
a misunderstanding based on what I read. But maybe that
was just fiction and not nonfiction, even though it was
(36:52):
described as nonfiction. That is a cray crazy story.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
How he end up there? Like who calls you?
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Is there like a post online like a TikTok post
or something like that. You have to go to the
dark web for that. She didn't kill these people, so
she's even if she gets caught, and the ways the
laws are in England, it's not like she's gonna get
that much jail time even if she's convicted. But still
you wonder what other things she has done. She's clearly
(37:23):
not that good at being an assassin because it didn't
work and all that.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
No comment from the Milwaukee Bruis.
Speaker 2 (37:32):
They didn't even say we were aware of the situation,
and we have no further comment at this time.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
They didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
I guess she's a former employee of the Brewers. This
reminds me a little bit much worse than this other story.
There was a guy about twenty years ago going around
killing people in the Middle East, and he had spent
time in America. And the photo that was going around
was him wearing a Pittsburgh Pirates hat.
Speaker 6 (37:54):
I remember that as a yes, great of all the
teams of all
Speaker 1 (38:02):
That photo was everywhere about twenty years ago.
