Speaker 1 (00:30):
So that's available still if you missed it over the weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Here in our number one whispers that CD Lamb is
the cowboys number one priority over Dak Prescott. How much
weight does that have? Also, we're reading that the Vikings
hope Sam Darnold has a Geno Smith type impact. What's
your reaction to this one and where are you at
on Jalen Johnson saying that he's tired of the buzz

(00:56):
about the Bears potential giving the money vote. We got
to prove it. We'll talk about all that and more
right now here. It is our number one us the
Silence of.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
The Lamb, at least for now.

Speaker 3 (01:12):
Welcome in the beginning of a brand new week of
the Ben Malor Show. We are in the air everywhere,
light Minded patrons as we checked to use by date
here coast to coast, border the border and beyond on
the mass and mighty powerful microphones of fs.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Are emmundating live.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
From the position the pole position. We're broadcasting live from
the ti raq dot com studios. Tyraq dot com will
help you get there in unmatched selection, fast, free shipping,
free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended installers.
Alf the alien opiner in Springfield, Mass I think he

(01:59):
sent ten thousand fun facts. We've only used a couple
of them, but he keeps sitting them in tirec dot
com the way tire buying should be. In ear lead
this hour, play the hits, mop Man, play the hits.
We'll start with the NFL. I could wax poet about
the Dodger sweeping the Red sixe.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Bina can do that. I'll do that later. So our
league coming from Jerry's.

Speaker 2 (02:21):
World in the NFL and in the training camps getting going.
Not everyone underway yet this week, next couple of days,
big period of time. So we have a high stakes
poker situation going on in Dallas. As you know, we
go where the interesting stories are that particular day. And
so if you have not heard the latest on this,

(02:43):
and perhaps not here we have learned the Cowboys, how
about them cowboys? The Cowboys prioritizing CD Lamb the wide
receiver for a MEGAMEGA mega contract extension over Dakota Prescott
in a new deal now will be free agents after
this upcoming season. I know you're very concerned about that,

(03:05):
the CD Lamb extension conversation.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Bigger deal, bigger deal, we.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Are told, according to the story bouncing around the echo chamber.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
So this is what I want to talk to you about.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
The question, with those whispers out there that the wide
receiver ced Lamb is priority number one over dak Prescott,
how much weight does that have? So I've got the
wide world of sports, medicine, cabinet and nautical wisdom, and
we will combine all of these things together and we

(03:40):
are going to make apple pie.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Why not? All right?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
So to kick off here to answer the question about
CEEDE Lamb? Not so fast, my friend, right? I mean,
as far as how much weight does it have? I
don't have any real weight on this. I'm hopeful there's
nothing to it. And here's why I have no horse
in the race. I don't, but it would be nice.

(04:04):
We talked about this for months on this show. It
would be nice if Jerry Jones would actually finish the marathon.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Your beloved owner.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
He liked the team so much he bought it and
the GM there, Jerry Jones only a few more hurdles
to jump over in the steeplechase to get into the
regular season. We're about forty something days away from the
start of the NFL season.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
And Jerry he's made it this far.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
We think he's been held against his will on a
yacht somewhere out in the Atlantic, but he's made it
this far without flinching, and so we're almost I remember
that there's an old show back and they called the
Wide World of Sports.

Speaker 1 (04:39):
The Agony of Defeat.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
That's the reason that Jerry Jones should hold off on this,
because in case he has second Thuster. The Cowboy playoff
game against the Green Bay Packers at home, Cowboys favoring
the game, should win going away, right, and that loss
completely unacceptable. And you got all these guys lined up

(05:02):
and a roll who are all looking to get paid,
and they will eventually get paid. But if I'm Jerry
Jones and the Cowboys, I'm like, no, not right now,
not cdee Lamb, not Dak Prescott, not Michael Parsons, and
these Schmendricks who just Dak was brutal. I understand why
he wouldn't be priority number one. His performance in the
first half of that game was dreadful. Now, furthermore, we

(05:23):
are reading out of Minnesota the Vikings are very optimistic
about Sam Donald. We don't understand why they would be
optimistic about Sam Donald. They say that he could have
a Geno Smith like impact with the Vikings. What is
your reaction to that one that the much traveled now

(05:43):
Sam Donald, who's passed around the NFL, will have a
Geno Smith type impact there with the Vikings. So my
reaction is, you go to the medicine cabinet and you
open that up there and you get the pink bottle
out and the pepto bismo, because that is you're just
waiting for it. That is a heart burn situation. Is
what is Geno Smith has been right in the middle

(06:06):
of the Bell curve in Seattle overall body work. I know,
JJ and Ranton and all the other fellas in Seattle crying.
Craig and those guys are like, ah, you know what
are you talking about and no ster Denis, but bear
with me. Largely, the Seahawks have not been a legit contender, right,
They've been a faux contender to make the playoffs with

(06:28):
Gino Smith. But the genome at QB is the main
reason why that he is a serviceable quarterback. But in
the regular season, you wouldn't trust him, wouldn't bet on
him in a big spot, and he's undependable in those situations.
And Minnesota essays that. By this story that's bounced around

(06:49):
over the weekend, Minnesota's telling the fan base there. They're saying,
you know, this kind of performance here, we don't want a's,
we don't want bees like, We'll take a C. We
like ah solid. See, but Donald, you're gonna have the
same issue. Even if he plays well and there's really
good wide receivers in Minnesota and you say, well, it
should be fine and all that stuff, and you can

(07:10):
throw the ball around, put up big numbers, gotty fantasy stats. Okay, fine,
but again, even if Minnesota wins a bunch of games
down the line, you're gonna get to a big spot
in the playoffs, wild card weekend, and Sam Darnold's gonna
have a close encounters of the third kind.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
He's gonna start seeing ghosts again.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
And it's turnout the last the party's over right last
thing here. So I saw the Chicago Bears getting a
lot of love at Eugene in Chicago.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
You're feeme.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
Some of the guys that are p ones on this
show are very optimistic that after all these years of futility,
the Bears will actually have a solid team this year.
And I saw some comments from Jalen Johnson of the
Chicago football team, who said, among I'm gonna paraphrase this,
I'm not gonna be with the holding.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
But he said that.

Speaker 2 (08:01):
He's tired of the buzz. He's tired of the buzz
about the Bears potential. He gave the money quote, we
got to prove it, was what he said. I was
just kind of obvious, right, you gotta prove it. So
I liked it though. I did like this when you
look at the Chicago Bears for the last two years.
The last two years, the Bears have had their tires

(08:22):
pumped up. Remember last year they won the offseason because
Justin Fields was the MVP and one of the greatest
quarterbacks of all time.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
The media told me that.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
They said Justin Field is amazing, he's unstoppable, and he did.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
He won the MVP of the offseason.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Then the season began, and now he's backing up in Pittsburgh.
Now he's following mister unlimited around Russell Wilson in the
Burg and it maybe go one to those steel mills.
They still have a few of them in the Pittsburgh area.
But he's not playing quarterback in Chicago. Justin Fields, he's
now a backup in Pittsburgh. So now Caleb Williams God's

(09:02):
gift to the quarterback position. He was picked at the
very top of the NFL draft. We know his story
and so now he's getting pumped up and people are outseted.
So Jalen Johnson realizes, as most knowledgeable people, it's all
hot air. It's all hot air, and follow the nautical

(09:22):
wisdom of the old Golden domer from back in the day.
Lou Holtz was still hanging around. He's really old, but
he's still hanging around. But he had a quote back
in the day, the old notre name coach who failed
in the NFL. He talked about the pressure and the
hype and all that stuff and people complaining and ranting
and raving and all this stuff. And his quote, which
I'm sure he stole from some sea captain somewhere out

(09:45):
in the middle of the Pacific, but it's don't tell
me how rocky.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
The sea is, just bringing the ship. And so the.

Speaker 2 (09:51):
Bears like, Okay, they got a lot of hype, lot
of build up and all this stuff, but they don't
tell me it.

Speaker 4 (09:55):
Just cool, do it.

Speaker 2 (09:57):
And they haven't been able to do it. That's the problem.
And you look at that, and Green Bank could go
either way. I'm not completely sold that the Packers are
gonna be amazing and run away with things. Remember Jordan
Love the first part of the year last year was okay,
it wasn't great, and he played well in the second half.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
The Lions another team that could go either way. Would
you be.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Shocked if Jared Goff falls back off and the Lions
end up being more in the middle around a five
hundred team, And like the whole division, like Minnesota's got
really good playmakers, but they don't have a quarterback, so
the whole division looks to be a bit of.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
A toss up. Anyway.

getting the week started. Don't forget Loraina demanded this is
not the big announcement, but we have August third. I

couple of weeks ago. Is the Saturday will be in Vegas.

We're not doing the show from Vegas, but we're all
going to be in Vegas at a Malard meet and
greet on Saturday, August third. All the information on social

I always say, two hours, but I usually end up
staying a lot longer than that, a lot longer normally,
normally a lot longer.

Speaker 8 (13:50):
And you never know, we might move the party somewhere out.

Speaker 2 (13:53):

I love my Castle really. Oh yeah. And they're so
manageable too, you know, I can eat so many of them.

Speaker 7 (14:14):
I don't think I've actually ever had white I had
I had White Castle.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
I've only had it a couple of times. One time
we were in Indianapolis. It was so long ago. The
Lakers were playing the Pacers, so we ate it right
before we had to go to the airport, and for
two days later, I could still taste the White Castle.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
It's it's such a strong, haunted you. Oh it was, Yeah,
I could not get rid of it.

Speaker 8 (14:36):
That you like burp up and it was like that
like three days ago.

Speaker 9 (14:39):
It's terrible. Absolutely the Costco hot dogs do that?

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Oh No, I like the cop I'm all about the
cost I think it's bad.

Speaker 9 (14:47):
I'm just it's just it's it's lasts for a while.

Speaker 8 (14:51):
Do you think they have one of the best hot
dogs costco?

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Well dollar fifty?

Speaker 9 (14:54):
Come on, hot dog and a coat and it's not
And it's not a small hot dog either.

Speaker 2 (15:01):
Sure about that, Koopy, Sure, but I measured the size
of the hot dog.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Yeah, all right.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Ozzie was rights in from Western Australia says we had
a full moon.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
We all had a full moon.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
Do you think he thinks that just in Australia it's
a full moon. The rest of us didn't have a
full moon anyway, He says, we had a full moon
out this way this morning. So can we expect even
crazier callers than normal?

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Man? How crazy are they going to get on this show?

Speaker 2 (15:28):
Poppy in San Diego is I love when he sends
messages bragging about I told you so?

Speaker 1 (15:36):
Does anyone want that I told you so? I told
you so. No, nobody wants that bad job by you.
Shame on you.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
Ferg Dog says, I know we're coming off the weekend.
You're probably still flying living on Hawaiian time, But that's
no excuse for being late with the rundown. The show
cannot function without it. Give us the emojis. Well, I
was actually working on the emojis and then I was interrupted.
So you'll have to wait a few miss longer for
the emojis and they will becoming.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
I know you're excited about that.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
DeAndre writes in says I agree, as Uh, he's rambling here, says,
QB is a huge question.

Speaker 1 (16:15):
Hoping McCarthy is the guy.

Speaker 2 (16:17):
Wouldn't be surprised if Sam Darnell has some sort of
Geno Smith type here, I would.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
Be Anyway, is that that's what you're looking for?

Speaker 2 (16:25):
Geno Smith? Why not go further than that? I mean,
there have been guys that have come out of nowhere
and been an MVP. Rich Gannon was garbage most of
his career, went to the Raiders and won an MVP
years and years ago. So anyway, we'll take some calls.
Let's say hello to hollering James in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Hello,

(16:46):
hollering James. James is not paying There is there is?

Speaker 10 (16:55):
What fifty four? I'll be sixteen years.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
Oh my god, James, you're gonna turn sixty years.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Well you're not. You're not there yet. You still got
to make it a couple more days.

Speaker 10 (17:09):
I'm serious, I'm serious.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
I think that's serious too.

Speaker 1 (17:12):
Actually, are you you sound like you're in a hospital, James.

Speaker 10 (17:15):
You sound like you were a first ballot Hall of
Famer Joey. I'm saying, Paul, what are you talking about,
Joe Joe Mauer?

Speaker 4 (17:24):
It does sound like he's in hospital.

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Are you in a hospital again, James?

Speaker 10 (17:30):
But I revoked?

Speaker 4 (17:33):
Yeah, poked.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
I didn't know you had the power to revoke if
they take your power.

Speaker 10 (17:39):
Yeah, you know why because I checked up my blood
press sure and came down.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
Oh damn.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
How many pills are you taking again, James? How many pills?

Speaker 10 (17:51):
Twenty six pills in the morning, twenty six pills that
night added up for the week.

Speaker 9 (17:56):
Oh yeah, good.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
You want me to do the math on that? Is
that seven days a week? Or you take Sunday off.

Speaker 10 (18:03):
Every day Sunday, including on Sunday Sunday it's a special day.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Why is what's so special about Sunday Sunday?

Speaker 11 (18:12):
Shot?

Speaker 1 (18:13):
What is that shot at my back?

Speaker 4 (18:17):
Some kind of shot?

Speaker 9 (18:18):
Quarters on?

Speaker 2 (18:18):
That's what athletes get when it's a numbers their back.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
That is he is like a basketball your bouncer.

Speaker 10 (18:28):
In Minneapolis. I say Minneapolis because that's home of the
Lake Yers that was your initial home of George might get.

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Yeah, yeah, do you remember the mur the Mermaid? That
was historic.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
They should put a plaque outside the Mermaid there in
Minnesota that that you were there at the mallor meet
and greet.

Speaker 10 (18:45):
They just see the size of those bouncers that were
particular earybody. There'll be no pandemonium. As Marny O'Neill would say, Well, you're.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
Down, James, you're down. Last time we asked you, you said
you were at thirty six pills. So you're down to
twenty six.

Speaker 10 (18:58):
So that's because they had to do it extra shots.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Because you have the shots. All right, I mean, let
me do the math.

Speaker 10 (19:04):
Hold on, I says meditation where they increased the sliding scale.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
All right, hold on sick and then hold on sack.

Speaker 1 (19:16):
So my math is right.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
You you're doing about ten thousand pills a year exactly.

Speaker 10 (19:22):
Man, I'm stop right now.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Take that. I might I might be off by a
little bit.

Speaker 10 (19:29):
I gotta be. But you know why what because the
bomb sell quarterbacks and the like. They gotta realize they
got an opportunity turn them of tail. Don't make it
into the playoffs. I think you should be gone. They
got their power, they got the team.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
Yeah, all right, all right, I gotta go.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
How many more times do you get to call David?
I'm I'm more done with you? Okay, thank you.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Well, I think Coops the one who'll be done with
it because he has to answer the.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
Really, you don't even remember the name of the radio station.

Speaker 9 (21:55):
No, I don't. Maybe maybe it was like what was

Speaker 11 (23:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (23:23):

Okay, yeah, yeah, Well you go there about four.

Speaker 1 (23:28):
In the morning.

Speaker 4 (23:29):
No, I wouldn't. I wouldn't do that.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
You see the Sodom and Gomorrah. It's right out of
the right out of the Bible. It's pretty wild. It's
raining down sulfur there.

Speaker 8 (23:38):
Interesting. Yeah, let's do it four o'clock in the morning.

Speaker 4 (23:41):
Down.

Speaker 1 (23:41):
I love people watching going to the zoo all.

Speaker 8 (23:44):
Night owls see why not?

Speaker 5 (23:46):

Speaker 8 (23:47):
All night?

Speaker 9 (23:47):
It's right next door to a nacho daddy.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Daddy, But you haven't been to that location. You were
at the other located in that. See, that's my favorite
part of Vegas, that part of it. That's the cedy
part of Vegas. To go hang out there, you know,
the strips, all corporate's like Disney and all that.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
I like to go down where the real people are.
That's also the real degeneration.

Speaker 9 (24:07):
You know what. That's Ben's favorite part of Vegas.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
Why is that because it's the cheaper part of Vegas?

Speaker 6 (24:12):
No?

Speaker 5 (24:14):
No, No.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
The Circus a high end establishment.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
Over are you saying it the circus circus?

Speaker 1 (24:20):

Speaker 4 (24:22):
Though?

Speaker 1 (24:22):
The mezzanine is mass I believe she is.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
She's definitely definitely not. Ben would just stay in his car.

Speaker 1 (24:29):
No, I would have done that before.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
I know.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
I slept actually one night we were in Buffalo and
I couldn't get a hotel room that was cheap enough,
so I just slept in my car outside the Buffalo
Niagara Airport.

Speaker 8 (24:39):
As long as you have a knife in your car,
you're good to go.

Speaker 9 (24:41):
To Ben.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
A knife.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
I don't know that a knife would help if you're
sleeping and someone uh breaks into your car anyway, it
is the Ben Malor Show on a full moon afterglow,
kind of a night on the overnight. We'll get back
to these calls. It's tough to top hollering James, but
I can only imagine.

Speaker 5 (24:57):
Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Maller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific, and is.

Speaker 4 (25:04):

Speaker 1 (25:25):
I'm not. I've not either. I actually was.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
I was going to drive there. I was driving through
New York and I was going to drive to Cooperstown.
It was so far off the beaten path.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
I was like, ah, I didn't go. I would like
to get there.

Speaker 4 (25:37):
I'm sure it's a lovely place.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
I would like to go there at some point check
it out, see what it's all about.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
I think I know what it's all about.

Speaker 2 (25:44):
But it'd be cool to to go and have a
fine time.

Speaker 4 (25:47):
I've been to the Pro Football Hall of Fame twice
and I enjoyed it both times.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
The only Hall of Fame I've been to is the
NCAA Hall of Champions.

Speaker 4 (25:56):
Oh, Indianapolis. I was gonna say Kansas City for some rea.

Speaker 2 (25:58):
Well maybe they moved it, but it was an Inianapolis
when I was there. Terrible, horrible, don't go save your money,
horrible mos b Maybe they made it better, but when
I was there, I was like, what am I doing here?

Speaker 1 (26:09):
Cemeteries that are more exciting.

Speaker 4 (26:11):
My buddy went to the US Hockey Hall of Fame,
which is in Evelyth, Minnesota.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
The real hockey all in Toronto, Toronto.

Speaker 4 (26:19):
Yeah, this is the US even to the Toronto Hall
of No I've been in Toronto, but he said that
it was like he walked in and there was like
he was the only one in the place and he
felt like he had to lock up what he left.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:31):
The one. The one I want to go to, y
the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
They have a mascot Hall of Fame in I think
it's like in Indiana somewhere. It's near Chicago, but on
the Indiana side. I would love to go check out
the Mascot Hall of Fame and see, Well, but chuck
the condors in there yet?

Speaker 4 (26:45):
Well definitely, wait a little bit. Worst mascot in all sports.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
That's wrong.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
I mean, they don't have any mascots actually there though, right.

Speaker 1 (26:52):
No, I think they do.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
I think they really old mascot. Yeah, the Yankees had
a mask guy.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
Oh yeah, I remember that. That was Inky Doodle or.

Speaker 1 (26:58):
Something like that.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (26:59):
Yeah, back in the seventies they had a mascot. Dodgers
claim they don't have a mascot, but they do have
a performance character which is not a mask guy.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
They claim a mascot, but it looks.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
Like a mascot and it walks around like a mascot,
but they claim it's not a mascot.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
That's what they say.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Whiting, Indiana, is the location of the Mascot Hall of Fame.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
But it's in the Chicago area. I'll take your across
the way. They're in Indiana, thirty minutes from downtown Chicago.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
There you go. See, that's the greater Chicago.

Speaker 4 (27:28):
Area thirty minutes. It's kind of far.

Speaker 1 (27:30):
That's not that far. If you if you left here
thirty from where we do the show.

Speaker 4 (27:34):
From thirty min I'm gonna give you where would you
end up?

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Burbank.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
I've moved on now. Four new inductees into the Mascot
Hall of Fame this year. Who are they?

Speaker 1 (27:43):
Oh the mascot Benny the Bull.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
No, probably already probably already one of these. You will
not like.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Oh is it Orbit?

Speaker 4 (27:51):
Yes? It is?

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Screw the Hall of Fames. If Orbit's getting all? Wasn't
Orbit part of the cheating in Houston?

Speaker 6 (27:57):
It?

Speaker 10 (27:58):
Or?

Speaker 1 (27:59):
What's that?

Speaker 4 (27:59):
No? No Orbit? Wow?

Speaker 2 (28:01):
As far as we know, Orbit could have been banging
on trash cans when the the a holes were cheating
to win the twenty seventeen World Series. It's wold, wild
and crazy, poor Orbit. What are the other mascots? Uh,
we've got I've met anything.

Speaker 4 (28:15):
Loucial of the San Francisco Giants.

Speaker 2 (28:17):

Back in the old days. Jackson Deville, Oh, Jacksonville's mask,
Jacksonville Jaguars. Yeah, and a I don't know if they're
like required to put in like a college mascot. But
this one is a surprise. Uh, the same kind of
Monty from the University of Montana. The Grizzlies their.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
Mascots named Monty.

Speaker 11 (28:39):
Yeah, near of them.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
I don't know. That's new to me.

Speaker 4 (28:43):
There you go. Oh my god. The outside of this
place is amazing looking.

Speaker 1 (28:47):
Yeah, it's great. I've seen I've seen photos on the internet.

Speaker 4 (28:49):
It's like a giant mascot head.

Speaker 5 (28:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Wow, some mascot.

Speaker 4 (28:54):
Hallway, I know. But I didn't expect the building to
look like that. It's I like that.

Speaker 1 (28:57):
Okay, well we have to go. Well, are you going
to see a Bears game or something like that? Anyway?
All right, now, let's have some funny fact.

Speaker 2 (29:05):
So in that Dodger Red Sox game Sunday Night Baseball Show,
Heotani hit a home run.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
They did not go out of Dodge.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
I've seen guys hit balls out of Dodger Stadium before,
back in the old days, they did not go out
of Dodger Stadium. But four hundred and seventy three foot
home run against the Socks that is the second longest
home run at Dodger Stadium in the stat cast here. Now,
back in the old days, Willie Stargel played for the Pirates,
hit a bunch of home runs out of Dodger Stadium.
Mike Piazza hit a ball out of Dodger Stadium that

(29:35):
was way before stat cast. I saw in batting practice
there was a guy named Billy Ashley who could not
hit once the game started, but in batting practice I
saw him hit balls out of Dodger Stadium many years ago.
But Joel Tani's second longest home run to Dodger Stadium,
and I see your balls, sir, I'd like to see. Well,
we're talking balls in the stat cast era, behind only
Gian Carlos Stanton at four hundred and seventy five feet,

(29:57):
he has the longest home run and he went to
high schoo right down the road from where we're broadcasting.
John Carlos stand, You don't say, but I just said.
That's what I did. I just said, And that's how
that goes there. Hey, Rapid radios are instant push the

Speaker 11 (33:16):
Because last time I was at White Cast at like
three am, I shouldn't line for like an.

Speaker 4 (33:20):
Hour, and then I would not.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I would not stand in line for an hour for
white maybe in and out, but not White Cast.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
I'm not sitting in the line.

Speaker 4 (33:29):
Yeah, almost going on.

Speaker 1 (33:30):
It's a full moon. See a full moon.

Speaker 4 (33:32):
This is what happened. Well, it's a full moon every
night on the Ben Mallain.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yeah, all right, all right, all right, Avery, Well look
for we look forward to meet you enjoy your white cast,
go away. All right, So big announcement coming up here
a week from today. A week from today, it is
the twenty twenty four Mallor Palooza.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
It's all right now.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
We usually did this over the All Star Break, but
I was away. It's traveling, so I was not here
the Mallard Palooza. Lorraine has never done one of these.
The Mallard Palooza is a variety show. It's a freak show,
it's a talent show. It's a little bit of everything.
So if you would like to be part of this,
we only have a week. We don't have a lot
of time to play with you. So if you want
to be part of this, if you have a song

(34:12):
you want to do, if you have an impersonation, a
comedy bit.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
We've had our guy.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
In Kansas who squeals like a pig and say songs.
It's a comedic genius, for example. But if you have
an act you would like to do and you can
do it. Last year we had a professional musician we
did not know, professional musician from Seattle that came on
and won. So I have not reached out to Inkatara yet.

(34:38):
In New York, I think he'll be with us.

Speaker 1 (34:40):
He usually is. He was off last year.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
We had Jay Scoop who's now in Ukraine and he's
fighting there in Ukraine. Are helping support the military there
in Ukraine. So he does listen to Live, but I
don't expect him to be part of this because he's
still in Ukraine and they don't have power and all
that stuff. So anyway, the Mallard Palooza coming up a
week from today, all night we'll have as every hour,

(35:05):
we'll vote on the acts and then we'll crown our
winner at the end of the Mallet Palooza. Biggest event
of this time of the year in overnight sports radio.
