Rodgers his comments as he put on the Steeler uniform
for the first time at OTA's Also, Aaron Rodgers was
(00:38):
secretly married. He confirmed that he has a new wife
after an offseason wedding. What intrigues you the most about
that development? And Brown's defensive end Miles Garrett was asked
about Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers. He said, I think
it's a good opportunity to put him in the graveyard,
meaning Rogers.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Do you see that happening?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Well?
Speaker 2 (01:00):

Speaker 2 (01:15):
In the beginning of another night of the Ben Malors Show,

our lead this hour is from Pittsburgh. Play the Hits,
mom Man Play the hits. All right, well, play the hits.
We have been talking about this particular storyline for months
and months and months and months and months, and here
we are the obligatory Malard monologue on the life and
(02:56):
times the stylings of mister Rah. That's right, mister Rogers Neighborhood,
which was produced by public television in Pittsburgh. And now
mister Rogers is going to be playing quarterback for the
hometown team.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
There Aaron Rodgers arrived.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Oh so exciting. I'm emotional. I'm for Clemped, I am
I'm for Klemped. Rogers arrived there first day of mandatory
mini camp. You always remember your first time. And he
put on that Steeler uniform at the practice facility right there,
and he spoke with the media. He waxed loquacious, and
I don't know if you heard what he had to
(03:33):
say or not. Perhaps not, but Aaron Rodgers going on
and on for the first time as a member of
the Pittsburgh football team. Now keep in mind, he did
want to play for the Vikings. They didn't want him,
and he even talked to the Giants. He must have
been on some ayahuasca when he talked to the Giants.
When you're talking the Giants, you already play with the Jets.
You've experienced suck football in the New York tri state area.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Why would you going to play with the other suck team.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Anyway, he ends up in Pittsburgh, and so there were
discussions with other other teams, but he ends up going there. Now,
we chopped up a couple of clips for you from
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Here he covered a wide range of topics. It was
like fifteen minutes, so it wasn't that long.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
You can watch the whole thing if you want, but
this is pretty boring, so we'll just give you the highlights.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
That's all you need. You don't need the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Time is the most valuable commodity you have, so why
waste it listening to that? So let me you little
taste here, little just to taste just a little taste there,
so airin Roger.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Now you explain why he.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Waited so long the long national nightmare came doing why
did he wait so long to go and sign that contract?
And then listen closely because this is a telling answer.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
I don't want to short change the guys and be
you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
until I could be here and be all in. You know,
I need to take care of my business.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Okay, got to take care of my business now. But wait,
there's more.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Rogers says he chose to play for the Steelers after
doing some soul searching.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I don't need it from my ego. I don't need it. No,
keep playing.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
No.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
A lot of decisions that I've made over my career
and life from strictly the ego. Yeah, even if they
turn out well or always unfulfilling, that's right. Decisions made
yes from the soul. Soul are usually pretty fulfilling. So
this was a decision that was best for my soul.
And I felt like being here with Coach T and
the guys I got here, and the opportunity here was
(05:33):
the best for me. And then I'm excited to be here.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
I do the same thing. When I come in here
and do sports takes, I do it from the soul.
Are you My sports takes are from the soul, and
when they're not from the soul, I'm not fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I'm not all right. So let us discuss the question.
Can you parse the words. We gave you some of them.
Can you parse the words of Aaron Rogers and.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
His commentary on the first four More media conference. Aaron
Rodgers as a Pittsburgh steeer. So I've got Bull Durham,
dead air, and mausoleum, and we will combine all of
these things together, and we're gonna make a Pittsburgh sandwich.
Which is a sandwich. What's the Pittsburgh Salmich. Well, that's
a sandwich. Will you put the fries on top of
(06:19):
the sandwich. That's a Pittsburgh sanwiche. Now, we're not gonna
make Pittsburgh pizza, which is disgusting. In the greater Pittsburgh area,
they have that pizza where they don't cook the cheese
and the toppings.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Pee. Yeah, what stings.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Anyway, get to the point, please, So in terms of
parsing the words of Aaron Rodgers, this is rather straightforward.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
It's rather straightforward.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It's by the book to the letter, if you will,
we'll go that far now, Rogers, for much of this
he went what we call Bull Durham. That's an old
baseball movie. It's a classic if you haven't seen it,
the famous scene where Crash Davis one of the characters
in the Baseball Movie There gives advice to Nuclalouge, and
he says, you're gonna have to learn your cliches. So
(07:00):
I gotta have to learn your cliches. You're gonna have
to study them, and you've gotta have to know them.
They're your friends, all right, that's your friends. And and
so Rogers been around you. It's not his first barbecue,
and so Rogers knows a thing or two about cliches.
And he's very mechanical for much of it, as we
anticipated he would be. For the most party, smooched the
(07:23):
Steeler history smooth smooth smooch, gave a big wet kiss
to the Pittsburgh Yinser crowd there, talked about all the
people that he's worked with who are from western Pennsylvania
and all that stuff, and he he was going. Now
the first SoundBite that we played, though, like the first
SoundBite that we played, that was telling, because Rogers confirmed
(07:47):
what we had been hearing. He said the quiet part
out loud. He said what it sounded like to me.
We don't play that cut one. We even't play that again.
Let's play that cut one. He listened to Rogers here
because I think it's interesting.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I didn't want to short change the guy and be,
you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
until I could be here and be all in, you know,
I need to take care of my business.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
All right.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
So the way I interpreted that using the Malo Rosetta
stone is that Aaron Rodgers is still bitter that he
got ripped when he was with the Jets for going
to the Pyramids in Egypt, and he's still bitter about that.
So he had things planned. We'll get to that in
a second what he was planning. But Aaron Rodgers like, hey,
I'm not doing it again.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
I'll play for you, but I'm gonna wait until I'm
done with all of my itinerary and all of my
travel plans, and then only then I will sign with
your stupid football team. And if you don't want it,
that's fine. That's what he did. He didn't want to hassle.
He had trips planned around the world, has passport burning
a hole in his pocket. He wanted to use his passport,
(08:52):
so that's it. He just bounced around and that's what
he did, and he waited and he's done with his travel.
So he's like, Okay, I'll now attend the team functions
and the workouts and all that crap. And he confirmed it.
That is confirmation. That is confirmation what you heard from Rogers' confirmation. Now,
as for the soul searching and satisfaction for your soul,
(09:17):
that was mostly a bubble bath for Mike Tomlin. Suck
up to your new boss and Curry favor. Nice bromance
between Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Now page two.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
The other big storyline. The other big storyline here is
that Aaron Rodgers also confirmed that one of the things
that he was busy doing this offseason was getting married.
Oh my god, it's a tabloid starts true. Rogers showed
up to the Kentucky Derby with the wedding band, and
some people thought that was like a psy op. That
(09:53):
was like some kind of weird trick that Rogers was doing.
Now some guys are going out of the pawnshop to
get a wedding band because for some reason, women are
more attracted to the man who have a wedding band.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Go figure.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Anyway, Rogers actually got married. He confirmed it. He's got
a new wife. Off season wedding. He's been married for
at least a couple of months. And what intrigues you, though, question,
what intrigues you most about the fact that this is.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
A pretty big development, said, who cares?
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's a tabloid story, man, Okay, but it's kind of
a big deal. So what intrigues you most? So for me,
it's the dead air. It's the dead air. I have
nightmares about dead air right actually day meares because I
sleep during the day. But I have issues with the
dead air. Radio silence, another problem, radio sounds. We talked
(10:47):
about a public figure, a polarizing figure in Aaron Rodgers,
a man that lives in Malibu. Bu all right, lives
in Malibu, the part that didn't burn down, and they
have an infestation in Malibu with paparazzo.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
They're everywhere.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
The paparazzi's all over the place. And there was no week.
We didn't see TMZ helicopters flying overhead, no ex girlfriend
or ex buddy spilling the beans on the gram, none
of that. That's unreal to my knowledge as I understand
the story. There were no photos. Still, the tabloids are
(11:25):
losing their mind. There are no photos of his wife.
We know her name, but there's no photos. The Daily
Mail and the New York Posts are losing it. Oh
my god, we've got to find a photos. Woman, We do,
cause you look like now they got there trying to
get the bottom of it, and everyone everyone's like, I
don't know who.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
We know kind of her name, but that's it. We
don't know who she is.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
The thing about they've been married for a couple of months.
I assume if you're married, you normally live together. So
they've never gone out in public together in Malibu. The
paparazzo outside every grocery store and restaurant in Melbourne. There's
no photos of them together, like walking on the beach,
even nothing that's bizarre.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
And they said, wow, maybe they eloped. Okay, they eloped.
I eloped. I eloped in Hawaii. Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
But even if you elope, there's always somebody at the
courthouse who has to fill out and file the paperwork,
even if it's done digitally, And those people can call
the tip line at Harvey Levin's office over their TMZ
and make ten grand saying hey, I got Aaron Rodgers
got married to this. This brought over on her name.
(12:31):
But here's her name and a boom done. Ten grand
in your pocket could be a twenty five thousand dollars story.
Nobody did that. So he said he's married, he's got
the wedding. Is he actually designed the paper? Is this
just like a full wedding? I don't know. I don't know,
so it's interesting to me. He had another quarterback, Josh Allen,
(12:51):
who had a celebrity wedding, and there were helicopters overhead,
there were Papa Rozzo outside. He got married in Santa
Barbara and there were a bunch of people there. Now
we know Rogers family likely was not his wedding. He
doesn't like them, so he wasn't with his family. But
to keep everyone on their even his friends are claiming.
I thought they were lying. Maybe they were lying that ah,
they didn't know about it, like nobody knew about it.
(13:15):
So Rogers he's playing chess. He's playing four D chess
on this one to keep everyone out of the loop,
dodging the tabloids like would be tacklers running with the
football there, ducking the paparazzi as they try to get
a photo of him living his life off the grid
in a very very public place.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
So forget audibles. This is not an audible. This is
a misdirection play, is what this is?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Now the last word here we head to Cleveland, where
the football sucks.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But the sound bites are not bad. The sound bites
are not bad.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
So an amusing quote from defensive and Miles Garrett.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
You know who he is.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, he's the guy that almost killed the Steelers quarterback
a couple of years ago, threw his helmet at him,
went four. Didn't connect, or Miles Garrett would not be
in the NFL right now. Anyway, Miles Garrett is in
the NFL. And he was asked about Aaron Rodgers being
a divisional opponent, which means you get to play him twice.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
And here is what.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Aaron Rodgers' opponent here, Miles Garrett had to say, take
a lis.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
But not think about it. Yeah, I think it's a
good opportunity to put him in the graveyard. Oh my god,
he wants to kill him. Call the cops.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Miles Garrett wants to murder Aaron Rodgers violence.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I know, so you heard it.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
The Browns defensive end Miles Garrett asked about Aaron Rodgers
joining the Steelers and he said.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I think it's quote, I think.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
It's good opportunity to put him in the graveyard close quote.
Do you see that actually happening ending Rogers' career because
of Miles Garrett making a sack on Aaron Rodgers. We
do not see that, all right, We do not see
that at all. Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers, by the way,
spoiler alert, spoiler alert, Aaron Rodgers did join the Steelers
(15:15):
from the other side. From the other side of the
Pearly Gates. He was in a mausoleum he played for
the Jets. When you play for the Jets, it's like
living in a burial chamber. When you're playing for the Jets.
Your career dies when you play there. It just does.
It did for Aaron Rodgers, right, And so Rodgers is
(15:37):
looking to be Poltergeist and come back to haunt Gang
Green by turning out to be the player they thought
the Jets were getting. But do it with the Pittsburgh
Steelers and all that, and woo spooky, spooky, spooky spooky
Aaron Rodgers. Now, as for Miles Garrett. As for Miles Garrett,
it's it's a good quip. Guys got big feet known
(15:59):
as Bigfoot, so good, good.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Quick by him.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
And now Miles Garrett should know a thing or two
about quarterbacks being put into the graveyard. He has witnessed
many of his teammates who played quarterback put in the graveyard,
so he knows what that's like. He knows the visual
on that. And playing for the Browns, Boy, there's a
lot of bodies buried and they're Brown quarterbacks. There a wasteland,
(16:24):
a wasteland for a quarterback's career. It is the Ben
Maler Show if you want to talk about any of that.

(17:33):
And I am going to call for Major League Baseball

franchise for something that happened in the Major leagues on
a random Tuesday night in June.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I've had enough.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
It's embarrassing, it's unbecoming, it's pathetic what happened, and something
needs to be done to stop this this plague.

back to it all.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Right, back to it we go. And several of you
have reached.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Out said, what's what's going on with the curfew in
LA and there's been some civil unrest. We do the
show from Los Angeles and it's it's a small part
of LA. It's in downtown Los Angeles. I gotta tell you,
I drove right through it on the way into the
studio right through it, and boy, did I get a show. Man,
did I get a great show, very entertaining show. I
(19:55):
have not seen that many police since the LA riots
in the ninety It was I didn't know there were that.
I know there's a lot of police at LAPD and
we're friends with some of those guys that listened to
the show.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
But that was insane, man, they were I.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Drove right through downtown Los Angeles, the one O one
where there were a bunch of protesters or looters.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I think thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Businesses got looted before they finally put a curfew in
in LA. I guess that's the magic number thirty eight.
I read that summerre anyway, We're fine. We're far away
from that we do the show from and I got
a no traffic. That was good for traffic. Everyone kind
of cleared out, so I had a good view of everything.
The highway was lit up by the helicopters, so it
was it was a free show on the way. And
(20:38):
we will be calling for a manager to be fined
and a team to be punished for something that happened
in Major League Baseball on Tuesday night. We will get
to that but right now we have it, says here
instant replay. Bob wants to complain about instant replay? Bob,
what are you upset about? Instant replay?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Bob? What are you complaining about? What is this about?
Bob and Missouri? Helloo? Hey, Ben harry Man, Bob, if
I was any better?
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Uh, well, there's a cosmic event we'll get to. So
it's gonna be a crazy night. I can tell that.
But anyway, go ahead, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Well, I've seen more games in my lifetime without instant replay,
so when they you know, when they first brought it in,
I was pretty interested to see what they were going
to do. And you know, I've always considered every play
in the sporting event significant. You know, it could be,
it could turn a game one way or the other.
And the fact that they've they've been so selective, you know,
(21:34):
it gets so frustrating when you sit here, you go
that play is not reviewable.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I mean they tried p I in the NFL until
Goodell caved in the next year because that was a disaster.
And baseball, I mean, we all know the old Uh well,
maybe you and I will Don Don Dickins. You're blown
the call in Game six of the eighty five World Series,
which is obviously a horrible call, but you know, I
(22:00):
think you'll agree.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Well, that led to a that led to the famous
urinal being destroyed at the ballpark there in Kansas City.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
It was it Joaquin.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Andrew Har that destroyed the late Joaquin Andrew Har believe
destroyed the commode there in Kansasy. All right, so you're
bringing examples, but let's get to the point. Sum it
up your hypothesis in one sentence.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Well, let's just get it all consistent and either either
I mean we lived, We lived for a long time
without it, and nobody died.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yes, So I mean, well, I think, really what you're
getting at here, here's my take on because I agree.
I'm of the age I watched a lot of sports
without instant replay. When it came in, everyone thought this
was going to cure everything. There'll be no more controversies
and like pretty much everything. As I've grown through my life,
I've realized that most things start out as a good
idea and then they get muddled.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Right.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
It's like, yeah, just look at America started was founded
based on you know, we want less tax and whatever,
and so now there's a.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Million taxes just about everywhere.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
But the instant replay thinks, wow, it's gonna be rare.
We're not gonna do a lot of instant replay. And
now they want to review everything because as you said,
well every call.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Matters and all that stuff, and so it's just.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
The red tape and everything gets slowed down, and it's it's.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
We live about it for years, man, I.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Mean, I know, but can you imagine they got if
they got rid of it. Oh my god, I can't
get rid of instant replay. They want more, they want more.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
They need more, Bob, they want more instant replay, Bob.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Then you know they want more.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
What they thing anything on Benny versus a penny? Going
to be able to do it again on Pete Cocker.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Well we are. We're waiting to hear back from the network.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
There are some meetings going on at NBC this month
and so we'll find out.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
But I will let you know.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
You know, I one thing I'm not afraid of is
promoting that TV show. So I will let you know
if the show is back, and hopefully it is and
it's out of my control, Bob. It's other big corporate
muckety MUCKs that have to decide that. So if you
want to be a title sponsor, though, contact NBC. You
can be the time smile thank you by I gotta
go all right anyway, I am calling now. I want
(24:05):
to announce as across the board, all the affiliates down
the line, I am calling for Dave Roberts to be
fined by Major League Baseball now. I No, Baseball is
not gonna do it. They don't have the balls to
do it. They allowed a team to cheat in the
World Series and didn't punish them. So it's like I'm
calling for Dave Roberts and the Dodgers to be punished.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That was one of the.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Most disgusting nights of regular season baseball I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
I thought I was watching an NBA game.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
The Dodgers forfeited a regular season game.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
They forfeited a regular season game. That's the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
How many stories did I read? How many stories did
I read? Greatest team of all time? Unbelievable roster. We
are not even at the All Star break and the
Dodgers just flushed a game away.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
What are we doing against supposedly a.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Rival, a team that they're baggling with for positioning, the
San Diego Padres. The Dodgers, because they had some pitching issues,
they pitched a bullpen game. But really what they did
was they threw the game. Some guy named Matt Sower,
I believe is his name. This big country bumpkin guy.
(25:14):
Now he didn't start the game, but he went out
there and put gasoline and lit it.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
On fire while he was out there.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
He went in the course of his outing, he allowed
nine runs, thirteen hits, one hundred and eleven pitches. And
then the Dodgers they said, Dave Robbins, all right, then
the sixth inning once because you have to be down
by a certain number of runs. So Roberts left this
guy in until they got down by the proper amount
(25:43):
of runs, and then brought in the human mop key
k Hernandez, who's actually been a better pitcher this year
than a hitter, even though he's a position player, and
brought him in in the sixth inning. They brought in
a position player in the sixth inning and had him
close the game out. That's the Dodgers. The sworda is
(26:07):
rolling over in his grave right now. That's the Dodgers.
It's embarrassing. Punish them, never do that again, and so
you should save the bullpit. Screw you, you're a loser
to if you think that this is the kind of
crap we see in the NBA. And nobody pays any
attention to the NBA regular season. And David Stern, he's
(26:28):
also dead. David Stern tried, he tried to control that
early on the San Antonio Spurs, that weasel, that loser,
Greg Popovich, that scumbag with load management. And David Stern,
he had the foresight. He said, this is going to.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Ruin our product. We must punish them, and they find them.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And he tried, and then Adam Silver took over and said,
do whatever the hell you want. We don't care. And
now no one watches. The product is terrible. They can't
sell the product. Nobody wants it. And it started small.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Majorly. I'm sure the poteryfs are happy they won the game.
That Dodgers gave the game might as well. Why is
it forfeit?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Oh my god, our pictures, God forbid, they have to
throw more, just don't even show up.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Just forfeit the effing game. That's the Dodgers, so embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Embarrassed Mookie bats and Freddie Freeman and shoe Heo Toani
and forfeiting a game on June tenth, to the Padres.
You forfeited that game, that's the Dodgers. It's pathetic. Now
I believe I know why they did it. There's a
cosmic event. Let's go now to our cosmic insider. And
(27:38):
every overnight sports radio show needs a cosmic insider. And
we go now to the front line of the cosmic battlefield,
far far away outside the Milky Way galaxy. She's known
as the Astrology Lady, among other things. Our friend Andrea
for go in service on ex Hello Andrea, welcome, and.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
How are you. I like that title, the cosmic Insider.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
You are the cosmic insider for sure. And there's a
major cosmic event, as I understand it. Can you explain
now that there's a lot of weird crap going on?
We know from doing overnight radio that when there is
a certain thing that takes place out there in the heavens,
it does affect human behavior.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
Yes, very much. So as above so below. And we
got a strawberry moon happening.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Strawberry Moon strawberry moon, a Darryl strawberry moon.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Strawberry moon. Wow, yeah, Actually.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
It's called the strawberry moon. You know how much we
like the Farmer's Almanac because strawberries become ripe and it's
strawberry season around them.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Oh jew okay.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
There's a famous donut shop in socol that serves strawberry donuts. Famous,
don't it, This place called donut Man. They get the
strawberry donuts, very very good.
Speaker 6 (28:52):
Yes, oh okay, So twelve fifty eight pm Pacific time,
we have the full moon in let's see, we're in
Gemini season, so it'll be in Sagittarius. And sure enough,
Aaron Rodgers had a few things to say with the
(29:14):
full moon in Sagittarius sun in Gemini. So interesting. Full
moons are very intense and things kind of come to
a head. So it's the last full moon or the
spring or the first of summer, depending on how you
look at it. And it's a strawberry moon again because
(29:35):
it's strawberry season, and that's the old Farmer's Almanac, and
it's you know, basically appears full on June eleventh, so
we're right on the cusp. So look up in the
sky and you'll see the full moon, and you know,
more intense emotional energy happens during the full moon. The's
kind of come to a head. So it's, you know,
(29:58):
the lot going on on the planet right now.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Yeah, there's always a lot going on, but for sure
it's it's enhanced this time when there's a full moon,
and it just it just is that.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
And people say, oh, you don't, I don't believe in
that stuff. Trust me.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I whether you believe it or not, it happens because
I've been doing this for twenty years and I know,
I just know when there's a full moon, there's just
a little extra you know what that's out there.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
So yes, and we have Aaron Rodgers as a poster
trial for that with him sharing how much you know,
the possible marriage. He mentioned the wedding ring, how we
wanted to go to the Steelers or not play at all.
So it's interesting that, you know, that's kind of coming
(30:41):
to fruition. So it's really interesting that he's a Sagittarius.
The full moon's and Sagittarius and here he is in
all this glory taking a lot more attention here for sure.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Well, thank you Andrea and want to say hello to Andrews.
She's on X at Virgo in service. Thank you, Andrey. Okay,
I'm gonna go a good, big basket of strawberries right now.
One of my nature boy writes in Answering the Call
to the Wild, he says, at least the Dodgers got
to run when Conforto came through with a single. You
(31:18):
know you're in trouble when you see Key k with
the weird batting helmet. Yeah, that is Does that not
look like a Little League, like a little League pitcher, Like, Hey,
the kid's not that good. He knows he's gonna get
dinged on the head, so let's give him the helmet out.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
There on the mount. Uh.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Josh writes and says, I agree with you, Ben, suspension
for Dave Roberts.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Haha, there you go, go, Cubs go. Oh I know
about that, man.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sheriff Bart says, can you name the play and the
game that instant replay evolved from?
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Sure, why not? We'll do that later.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
Bill writes in Who's Your Bill? A big pacer guy,
not sending as much pacer propaganda. He says, do you
know how many drinks are sold during an instant replay, bets, etc.
Move on, Yes, that's exactly They're worried about alcohol sales.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's why they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
And what about the people that turn the game off
during instant replay and don't come back?
Speaker 1 (32:17):
What about those people?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Ferg Dog says, I love that Bob asked how you're
doing to open the call. Not enough callers have good
phone etiquette like Bob. Yeah, that's I love that. There's
nothing better than eighteen people an hour asking how you're
doing so great?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
I just can't get enough of it.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Man Ferg Doug says, how could anyone listen to the
show's podcast seven times?
Speaker 1 (32:40):
My personal best is six?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
To do seven before the next live show airs, you'd
have to skip the commercials or speed it up, which
is wrong.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
You don't speed it up. You do not speed it up.
Don't do it.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Late Night drug tester writes, and from parts on known
he says, I will beat Keg drinking Steve to the punch.
All the AFC quarterbacks had to get married because mahomes
is keeping them from winning any rings.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
But I'm bump there you go, all right? Saw Man writes.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
In form Mississippi says did an ale pitcher get a
hit that seems like a punishable offense. No, Evan, the
depressed Mariner fan. Is there a non depressed Mariner fan?
Evan says, ay, Ben, I'm not one to request things,
but the good people of the Seattle's branch of the
Mallard militia, the contingent there need a Mallard monologue to
(33:34):
absolutely destroy the ownership and the front office of the
Seattle Mariners. You're the best at that the people needed,
duly noted Evan duly noted, hot Mariner talk, not at
all doing on the Today's show, but hot Mariner talk.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Yeah, it will be spicy.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
It will be spicy, and I'm pretty sure that the
person that will take the brunt of that is Jerry.
Photo's still there. And the fact that he's still there,
and he pretty much admitted a couple of years ago
that the goal is not to try to win as
many games he can put a World.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Series team on the field.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
The goal is just to be slightly above average. That's
Mariner baseball. Just slightly above average. That's all they want,
Just slightly above average.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
All right. It is the Ben Malors Show.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
As we are working our way through the overnight hours,
we have the play of the day.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
The play of the day. Let's take you now to New.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
York, the Borough of Queens Flushing to be exact. The
Washington Nationals. We're leading this game for most of the game.
They had a two to nothing lead, a three to
nothing lead, of three to one lead. They were up
four to two when the Mets came back and tied
it in the eighth inning. They went to extra innings,
and then the tire ract play of the night. Leading
(34:55):
off the bottom of the tenth winning run at second base,
Henry Deals right right field, base hit for Jeff Mcneilconia
Rouse third, hustles thrown to the Plancunia race is on
by no tag ball game.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
Then swit it again in ten five for New York
over Washington, and Jeff found on who that was?
Speaker 2 (35:15):
I have no idea that whether it's a Mets broadcast
or their Mets radio, but Jeff McNeil doubling home the
winning run of the tenth inning and the Metropolitans get
it done.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
They open the three game set with.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
The Nationals, and they take back that latitude and shove
it down the throats. The New York match have the
top record in the National League. They won four straight
thirteen of sixteen. They're nineteen games above five hundred for
the first time in a few years. There so the
Mets get it done. That is the tire Rack Player
of the Day from Jeff McNeil. For over forty years,
ty Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires

Speaker 2 (36:04):
And who it does apply to the Mets. Not that
we planned it this way, unless we did anyway, Here
it is. In his first eight games this month, listen
up e Dog. In his first eight games this month,
Mets slugger Pete Alonzo had eighteen RBIs.
Speaker 1 (36:20):
Six home runs, and two hit by pitches.

span in a single season are Jeff Bagwell and me Ago.
Pete Alonzo of the Mets first eight games this month.
Prior to the game on Tuesday Night, he had eighteen RBIs,
six home runs, a couple of hit by pitches, the
(36:44):
only other players in the big leagues in the Live
ball era to put up those numbers over an eight
game span in a single season. Where Jeff Bagwell from

only other Major League Baseball players today in the light

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Let's see can't read that pink panther from Scrooge in
the Bay Area, And let's see here alf the alien

We try not to talk about that. Very few people

what happened there with the photo that you put up

Yeah, I saw Eddie died. The kicker for the.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
Packers from back in the day, Kurt Bavoqua, but he
could hit water if he fell out a bleeping boat Bavoqua.
That's from Sean and led to one of the great
Lesorda rants when Bavoqua called the sort of a fat
attack and Thesorda responded with a flamethrower. They can't do
(40:06):
that stuff. Anymore in baseball. But back in the day
they did George Kirby, who stinks? From Shane in Des Moines,
John Vanderwall from James that's his answer. Missus Butterworth from
Slim Tim that she said, all right, Lorena, what's the
answer here.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
I'm going with George Lucas, Ben.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
George Lucas, may the Force be with you? Know that
is incorrect. Correct answer is a player noticed, mister October.
Who has noticed mister October.
Speaker 5 (40:32):
I don't know, Ben.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
That'd be Reggie Jackson. Mister October, come on, I knew
that it's bad baseball, nos, Reggie Jackson. Man, it was
a big star like fifty seven years ago.
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Welcome, It's our numb ber one, our number one of
the original Recipe podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Happy Wednesday to you. It is the eleventh day of June.
Hope all as well in your world, and.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
We're glad you have chosen to hang out with us.
There are eight gazillion podcasts, and yet you have chosen
to download and listen to this one. God bless you.
So here in our number one of the original Recipe
Ben Maler Show, can you parse the words of Aaron
Rodgers his comments as he put on the Steeler uniform
for the first time at OTA's Also, Aaron Rodgers was
(00:38):
secretly married. He confirmed that he has a new wife
after an offseason wedding. What intrigues you the most about
that development? And Brown's defensive end Miles Garrett was asked
about Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers. He said, I think
it's a good opportunity to put him in the graveyard,
meaning Rogers.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Do you see that happening?
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Well?
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Us, all of that and more right now, give it
up for our number one.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
The Rogers has landed. The Rogers has landed. Welcome.
Speaker 2 (01:15):
In the beginning of another night of the Ben Malors Show,
we are in the air everywhere, flocking together the change
we need but did not know that we need coast
to coast, border to border and beyond on the mast
(01:36):
and sharply powerful microphones of FSR am monating live from
the dome the heat dome over the microphone as we're
hanging out here at the Fox Sports Radio Studios, as
approved by the legendary Slim tim A proud chief, said
(01:57):
a regular p one. He tells me, if he this
is the show, he has to listen to the podcast
seven times. If he misses the live show, that's dedication.
You don't listen seven times. This guy seven times slipped
him and this portion of the Ben Mallory Show made
possible in part by our friends at ty Iraq. For
over forty years, ty iraq has been helping customers find
(02:18):
the right tires.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
For how, what and where they drive.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Ship fast and freeback by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
See ferg Dog.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
And Alf slapping high five on that That's right tire
iraq dot com the way tire buying should be so
our lead this hour is from Pittsburgh. Play the Hits,
mom Man Play the hits. All right, well, play the hits.
We have been talking about this particular storyline for months
and months and months and months and months, and here
we are the obligatory Malard monologue on the life and
(02:56):
times the stylings of mister Rah. That's right, mister Rogers Neighborhood,
which was produced by public television in Pittsburgh. And now
mister Rogers is going to be playing quarterback for the
hometown team.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
There Aaron Rodgers arrived.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Oh so exciting. I'm emotional. I'm for Clemped, I am
I'm for Klemped. Rogers arrived there first day of mandatory
mini camp. You always remember your first time. And he
put on that Steeler uniform at the practice facility right there,
and he spoke with the media. He waxed loquacious, and
I don't know if you heard what he had to
(03:33):
say or not. Perhaps not, but Aaron Rodgers going on
and on for the first time as a member of
the Pittsburgh football team. Now keep in mind, he did
want to play for the Vikings. They didn't want him,
and he even talked to the Giants. He must have
been on some ayahuasca when he talked to the Giants.
When you're talking the Giants, you already play with the Jets.
You've experienced suck football in the New York tri state area.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
Why would you going to play with the other suck team.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Anyway, he ends up in Pittsburgh, and so there were
discussions with other other teams, but he ends up going there. Now,
we chopped up a couple of clips for you from
Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
Here he covered a wide range of topics. It was
like fifteen minutes, so it wasn't that long.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
You can watch the whole thing if you want, but
this is pretty boring, so we'll just give you the highlights.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
That's all you need. You don't need the whole thing.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
Time is the most valuable commodity you have, so why
waste it listening to that? So let me you little
taste here, little just to taste just a little taste there,
so airin Roger.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Now you explain why he.
Speaker 2 (04:30):
Waited so long the long national nightmare came doing why
did he wait so long to go and sign that contract?
And then listen closely because this is a telling answer.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
I don't want to short change the guys and be
you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
until I could be here and be all in. You know,
I need to take care of my business.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Okay, got to take care of my business now. But wait,
there's more.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Rogers says he chose to play for the Steelers after
doing some soul searching.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Take a listen.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
I don't need it from my ego. I don't need it. No,
keep playing.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
No.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
A lot of decisions that I've made over my career
and life from strictly the ego. Yeah, even if they
turn out well or always unfulfilling, that's right. Decisions made
yes from the soul. Soul are usually pretty fulfilling. So
this was a decision that was best for my soul.
And I felt like being here with Coach T and
the guys I got here, and the opportunity here was
(05:33):
the best for me. And then I'm excited to be here.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
I do the same thing. When I come in here
and do sports takes, I do it from the soul.
Are you My sports takes are from the soul, and
when they're not from the soul, I'm not fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I'm not all right. So let us discuss the question.
Can you parse the words. We gave you some of them.
Can you parse the words of Aaron Rogers and.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
His commentary on the first four More media conference. Aaron
Rodgers as a Pittsburgh steeer. So I've got Bull Durham,
dead air, and mausoleum, and we will combine all of
these things together, and we're gonna make a Pittsburgh sandwich.
Which is a sandwich. What's the Pittsburgh Salmich. Well, that's
a sandwich. Will you put the fries on top of
(06:19):
the sandwich. That's a Pittsburgh sanwiche. Now, we're not gonna
make Pittsburgh pizza, which is disgusting. In the greater Pittsburgh area,
they have that pizza where they don't cook the cheese
and the toppings.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Pee. Yeah, what stings.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Anyway, get to the point, please, So in terms of
parsing the words of Aaron Rodgers, this is rather straightforward.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
It's rather straightforward.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
It's by the book to the letter, if you will,
we'll go that far now, Rogers, for much of this
he went what we call Bull Durham. That's an old
baseball movie. It's a classic if you haven't seen it,
the famous scene where Crash Davis one of the characters
in the Baseball Movie There gives advice to Nuclalouge, and
he says, you're gonna have to learn your cliches. So
(07:00):
I gotta have to learn your cliches. You're gonna have
to study them, and you've gotta have to know them.
They're your friends, all right, that's your friends. And and
so Rogers been around you. It's not his first barbecue,
and so Rogers knows a thing or two about cliches.
And he's very mechanical for much of it, as we
anticipated he would be. For the most party, smooched the
(07:23):
Steeler history smooth smooth smooch, gave a big wet kiss
to the Pittsburgh Yinser crowd there, talked about all the
people that he's worked with who are from western Pennsylvania
and all that stuff, and he he was going. Now
the first SoundBite that we played, though, like the first
SoundBite that we played, that was telling, because Rogers confirmed
(07:47):
what we had been hearing. He said the quiet part
out loud. He said what it sounded like to me.
We don't play that cut one. We even't play that again.
Let's play that cut one. He listened to Rogers here
because I think it's interesting.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
I didn't want to short change the guy and be,
you know, sign but be elsewhere mentally or physically, so
until I could be here and be all in, you know,
I need to take care of my business.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
All right.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
So the way I interpreted that using the Malo Rosetta
stone is that Aaron Rodgers is still bitter that he
got ripped when he was with the Jets for going
to the Pyramids in Egypt, and he's still bitter about that.
So he had things planned. We'll get to that in
a second what he was planning. But Aaron Rodgers like, hey,
I'm not doing it again.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
All right.
Speaker 2 (08:31):
I'll play for you, but I'm gonna wait until I'm
done with all of my itinerary and all of my
travel plans, and then only then I will sign with
your stupid football team. And if you don't want it,
that's fine. That's what he did. He didn't want to hassle.
He had trips planned around the world, has passport burning
a hole in his pocket. He wanted to use his passport,
(08:52):
so that's it. He just bounced around and that's what
he did, and he waited and he's done with his travel.
So he's like, Okay, I'll now attend the team functions
and the workouts and all that crap. And he confirmed it.
That is confirmation. That is confirmation what you heard from Rogers' confirmation. Now,
as for the soul searching and satisfaction for your soul,
(09:17):
that was mostly a bubble bath for Mike Tomlin. Suck
up to your new boss and Curry favor. Nice bromance
between Tomlin and Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Now page two.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
The other big storyline. The other big storyline here is
that Aaron Rodgers also confirmed that one of the things
that he was busy doing this offseason was getting married.
Oh my god, it's a tabloid starts true. Rogers showed
up to the Kentucky Derby with the wedding band, and
some people thought that was like a psy op. That
(09:53):
was like some kind of weird trick that Rogers was doing.
Now some guys are going out of the pawnshop to
get a wedding band because for some reason, women are
more attracted to the man who have a wedding band.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
Go figure.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Anyway, Rogers actually got married. He confirmed it. He's got
a new wife. Off season wedding. He's been married for
at least a couple of months. And what intrigues you, though, question,
what intrigues you most about the fact that this is.
Speaker 1 (10:22):
A pretty big development, said, who cares?
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's a tabloid story, man, Okay, but it's kind of
a big deal. So what intrigues you most? So for me,
it's the dead air. It's the dead air. I have
nightmares about dead air right actually day meares because I
sleep during the day. But I have issues with the
dead air. Radio silence, another problem, radio sounds. We talked
(10:47):
about a public figure, a polarizing figure in Aaron Rodgers,
a man that lives in Malibu. Bu all right, lives
in Malibu, the part that didn't burn down, and they
have an infestation in Malibu with paparazzo.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
They're everywhere.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
The paparazzi's all over the place. And there was no week.
We didn't see TMZ helicopters flying overhead, no ex girlfriend
or ex buddy spilling the beans on the gram, none
of that. That's unreal to my knowledge as I understand
the story. There were no photos. Still, the tabloids are
(11:25):
losing their mind. There are no photos of his wife.
We know her name, but there's no photos. The Daily
Mail and the New York Posts are losing it. Oh
my god, we've got to find a photos. Woman, We do,
cause you look like now they got there trying to
get the bottom of it, and everyone everyone's like, I
don't know who.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
We know kind of her name, but that's it. We
don't know who she is.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
The thing about they've been married for a couple of months.
I assume if you're married, you normally live together. So
they've never gone out in public together in Malibu. The
paparazzo outside every grocery store and restaurant in Melbourne. There's
no photos of them together, like walking on the beach,
even nothing that's bizarre.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
And they said, wow, maybe they eloped. Okay, they eloped.
I eloped. I eloped in Hawaii. Okay.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
But even if you elope, there's always somebody at the
courthouse who has to fill out and file the paperwork,
even if it's done digitally, And those people can call
the tip line at Harvey Levin's office over their TMZ
and make ten grand saying hey, I got Aaron Rodgers
got married to this. This brought over on her name.
(12:31):
But here's her name and a boom done. Ten grand
in your pocket could be a twenty five thousand dollars story.
Nobody did that. So he said he's married, he's got
the wedding. Is he actually designed the paper? Is this
just like a full wedding? I don't know. I don't know,
so it's interesting to me. He had another quarterback, Josh Allen,
(12:51):
who had a celebrity wedding, and there were helicopters overhead,
there were Papa Rozzo outside. He got married in Santa
Barbara and there were a bunch of people there. Now
we know Rogers family likely was not his wedding. He
doesn't like them, so he wasn't with his family. But
to keep everyone on their even his friends are claiming.
I thought they were lying. Maybe they were lying that ah,
they didn't know about it, like nobody knew about it.
(13:15):
So Rogers he's playing chess. He's playing four D chess
on this one to keep everyone out of the loop,
dodging the tabloids like would be tacklers running with the
football there, ducking the paparazzi as they try to get
a photo of him living his life off the grid
in a very very public place.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
So forget audibles. This is not an audible. This is
a misdirection play, is what this is?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Now the last word here we head to Cleveland, where
the football sucks.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
But the sound bites are not bad. The sound bites
are not bad.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
So an amusing quote from defensive and Miles Garrett.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
You know who he is.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Yeah, he's the guy that almost killed the Steelers quarterback
a couple of years ago, threw his helmet at him,
went four. Didn't connect, or Miles Garrett would not be
in the NFL right now. Anyway, Miles Garrett is in
the NFL. And he was asked about Aaron Rodgers being
a divisional opponent, which means you get to play him twice.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
And here is what.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
Aaron Rodgers' opponent here, Miles Garrett had to say, take
a lis.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
But not think about it. Yeah, I think it's a
good opportunity to put him in the graveyard. Oh my god,
he wants to kill him. Call the cops.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Miles Garrett wants to murder Aaron Rodgers violence.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I know, so you heard it.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
The Browns defensive end Miles Garrett asked about Aaron Rodgers
joining the Steelers and he said.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I think it's quote, I think.
Speaker 2 (14:50):
It's good opportunity to put him in the graveyard close quote.
Do you see that actually happening ending Rogers' career because
of Miles Garrett making a sack on Aaron Rodgers. We
do not see that, all right, We do not see
that at all. Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers, by the way,
spoiler alert, spoiler alert, Aaron Rodgers did join the Steelers
(15:15):
from the other side. From the other side of the
Pearly Gates. He was in a mausoleum he played for
the Jets. When you play for the Jets, it's like
living in a burial chamber. When you're playing for the Jets.
Your career dies when you play there. It just does.
It did for Aaron Rodgers, right, And so Rodgers is
(15:37):
looking to be Poltergeist and come back to haunt Gang
Green by turning out to be the player they thought
the Jets were getting. But do it with the Pittsburgh
Steelers and all that, and woo spooky, spooky, spooky spooky
Aaron Rodgers. Now, as for Miles Garrett. As for Miles Garrett,
it's it's a good quip. Guys got big feet known
(15:59):
as Bigfoot, so good, good.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Quick by him.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
And now Miles Garrett should know a thing or two
about quarterbacks being put into the graveyard. He has witnessed
many of his teammates who played quarterback put in the graveyard,
so he knows what that's like. He knows the visual
on that. And playing for the Browns, Boy, there's a
lot of bodies buried and they're Brown quarterbacks. There a wasteland,
(16:24):
a wasteland for a quarterback's career. It is the Ben
Maler Show if you want to talk about any of that.

(17:33):
And I am going to call for Major League Baseball

franchise for something that happened in the Major leagues on
a random Tuesday night in June.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
I've had enough.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
It's embarrassing, it's unbecoming, it's pathetic what happened, and something
needs to be done to stop this this plague.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
We'll get to that and we will do it next.

back to it all.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Right, back to it we go. And several of you
have reached.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Out said, what's what's going on with the curfew in
LA and there's been some civil unrest. We do the
show from Los Angeles and it's it's a small part
of LA. It's in downtown Los Angeles. I gotta tell you,
I drove right through it on the way into the
studio right through it, and boy, did I get a show. Man,
did I get a great show, very entertaining show. I
(19:55):
have not seen that many police since the LA riots
in the ninety It was I didn't know there were that.
I know there's a lot of police at LAPD and
we're friends with some of those guys that listened to
the show.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
But that was insane, man, they were I.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Drove right through downtown Los Angeles, the one O one
where there were a bunch of protesters or looters.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
I think thirty eight.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
Businesses got looted before they finally put a curfew in
in LA. I guess that's the magic number thirty eight.
I read that summerre anyway, We're fine. We're far away
from that we do the show from and I got
a no traffic. That was good for traffic. Everyone kind
of cleared out, so I had a good view of everything.
The highway was lit up by the helicopters, so it
was it was a free show on the way. And
(20:38):
we will be calling for a manager to be fined
and a team to be punished for something that happened
in Major League Baseball on Tuesday night. We will get
to that but right now we have it, says here
instant replay. Bob wants to complain about instant replay? Bob,
what are you upset about? Instant replay?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Bob? What are you complaining about? What is this about?
Bob and Missouri? Helloo? Hey, Ben harry Man, Bob, if
I was any better?
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Uh, well, there's a cosmic event we'll get to. So
it's gonna be a crazy night. I can tell that.
But anyway, go ahead, what's on your mind?
Speaker 3 (21:12):
Well, I've seen more games in my lifetime without instant replay,
so when they you know, when they first brought it in,
I was pretty interested to see what they were going
to do. And you know, I've always considered every play
in the sporting event significant. You know, it could be,
it could turn a game one way or the other.
And the fact that they've they've been so selective, you know,
(21:34):
it gets so frustrating when you sit here, you go
that play is not reviewable.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
You know.
Speaker 3 (21:38):
I mean they tried p I in the NFL until
Goodell caved in the next year because that was a disaster.
And baseball, I mean, we all know the old Uh well,
maybe you and I will Don Don Dickins. You're blown
the call in Game six of the eighty five World Series,
which is obviously a horrible call, but you know, I
(22:00):
think you'll agree.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
Well, that led to a that led to the famous
urinal being destroyed at the ballpark there in Kansas City.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
It was it Joaquin.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
Andrew Har that destroyed the late Joaquin Andrew Har believe
destroyed the commode there in Kansasy. All right, so you're
bringing examples, but let's get to the point. Sum it
up your hypothesis in one sentence.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
What is it?
Speaker 3 (22:22):
Well, let's just get it all consistent and either either
I mean we lived, We lived for a long time
without it, and nobody died.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Yes, So I mean, well, I think, really what you're
getting at here, here's my take on because I agree.
I'm of the age I watched a lot of sports
without instant replay. When it came in, everyone thought this
was going to cure everything. There'll be no more controversies
and like pretty much everything. As I've grown through my life,
I've realized that most things start out as a good
idea and then they get muddled.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Right.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
It's like, yeah, just look at America started was founded
based on you know, we want less tax and whatever,
and so now there's a.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Million taxes just about everywhere.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
But the instant replay thinks, wow, it's gonna be rare.
We're not gonna do a lot of instant replay. And
now they want to review everything because as you said,
well every call.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
Matters and all that stuff, and so it's just.
Speaker 2 (23:11):
The red tape and everything gets slowed down, and it's it's.
Speaker 3 (23:17):
We live about it for years, man, I.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
Mean, I know, but can you imagine they got if
they got rid of it. Oh my god, I can't
get rid of instant replay. They want more, they want more.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
They need more, Bob, they want more instant replay, Bob.
Speaker 1 (23:29):
Then you know they want more.
Speaker 3 (23:31):
What they thing anything on Benny versus a penny? Going
to be able to do it again on Pete Cocker.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
Well we are. We're waiting to hear back from the network.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
There are some meetings going on at NBC this month
and so we'll find out.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
But I will let you know.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
You know, I one thing I'm not afraid of is
promoting that TV show. So I will let you know
if the show is back, and hopefully it is and
it's out of my control, Bob. It's other big corporate
muckety MUCKs that have to decide that. So if you
want to be a title sponsor, though, contact NBC. You
can be the time smile thank you by I gotta
go all right anyway, I am calling now. I want
(24:05):
to announce as across the board, all the affiliates down
the line, I am calling for Dave Roberts to be
fined by Major League Baseball now. I No, Baseball is
not gonna do it. They don't have the balls to
do it. They allowed a team to cheat in the
World Series and didn't punish them. So it's like I'm
calling for Dave Roberts and the Dodgers to be punished.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That was one of the.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
Most disgusting nights of regular season baseball I've ever seen.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
I thought I was watching an NBA game.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
The Dodgers forfeited a regular season game.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
They forfeited a regular season game. That's the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (24:38):
How many stories did I read? How many stories did
I read? Greatest team of all time? Unbelievable roster. We
are not even at the All Star break and the
Dodgers just flushed a game away.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
What are we doing against supposedly a.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Rival, a team that they're baggling with for positioning, the
San Diego Padres. The Dodgers, because they had some pitching issues,
they pitched a bullpen game. But really what they did
was they threw the game. Some guy named Matt Sower,
I believe is his name. This big country bumpkin guy.
(25:14):
Now he didn't start the game, but he went out
there and put gasoline and lit it.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
On fire while he was out there.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
He went in the course of his outing, he allowed
nine runs, thirteen hits, one hundred and eleven pitches. And
then the Dodgers they said, Dave Robbins, all right, then
the sixth inning once because you have to be down
by a certain number of runs. So Roberts left this
guy in until they got down by the proper amount
(25:43):
of runs, and then brought in the human mop key
k Hernandez, who's actually been a better pitcher this year
than a hitter, even though he's a position player, and
brought him in in the sixth inning. They brought in
a position player in the sixth inning and had him
close the game out. That's the Dodgers. The sworda is
(26:07):
rolling over in his grave right now. That's the Dodgers.
It's embarrassing. Punish them, never do that again, and so
you should save the bullpit. Screw you, you're a loser
to if you think that this is the kind of
crap we see in the NBA. And nobody pays any
attention to the NBA regular season. And David Stern, he's
(26:28):
also dead. David Stern tried, he tried to control that
early on the San Antonio Spurs, that weasel, that loser,
Greg Popovich, that scumbag with load management. And David Stern,
he had the foresight. He said, this is going to.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
Ruin our product. We must punish them, and they find them.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
And he tried, and then Adam Silver took over and said,
do whatever the hell you want. We don't care. And
now no one watches. The product is terrible. They can't
sell the product. Nobody wants it. And it started small.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Majorly. I'm sure the poteryfs are happy they won the game.
That Dodgers gave the game might as well. Why is
it forfeit?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
Oh my god, our pictures, God forbid, they have to
throw more, just don't even show up.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Just forfeit the effing game. That's the Dodgers, so embarrassing.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Embarrassed Mookie bats and Freddie Freeman and shoe Heo Toani
and forfeiting a game on June tenth, to the Padres.
You forfeited that game, that's the Dodgers. It's pathetic. Now
I believe I know why they did it. There's a
cosmic event. Let's go now to our cosmic insider. And
(27:38):
every overnight sports radio show needs a cosmic insider. And
we go now to the front line of the cosmic battlefield,
far far away outside the Milky Way galaxy. She's known
as the Astrology Lady, among other things. Our friend Andrea
for go in service on ex Hello Andrea, welcome, and.
Speaker 6 (28:00):
How are you. I like that title, the cosmic Insider.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
You are the cosmic insider for sure. And there's a
major cosmic event, as I understand it. Can you explain
now that there's a lot of weird crap going on?
We know from doing overnight radio that when there is
a certain thing that takes place out there in the heavens,
it does affect human behavior.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
Yes, very much. So as above so below. And we
got a strawberry moon happening.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
Strawberry Moon strawberry moon, a Darryl strawberry moon.
Speaker 1 (28:29):
Strawberry moon. Wow, yeah, Actually.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
It's called the strawberry moon. You know how much we
like the Farmer's Almanac because strawberries become ripe and it's
strawberry season around them.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Oh jew okay.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
There's a famous donut shop in socol that serves strawberry donuts. Famous,
don't it, This place called donut Man. They get the
strawberry donuts, very very good.
Speaker 6 (28:52):
Yes, oh okay, So twelve fifty eight pm Pacific time,
we have the full moon in let's see, we're in
Gemini season, so it'll be in Sagittarius. And sure enough,
Aaron Rodgers had a few things to say with the
(29:14):
full moon in Sagittarius sun in Gemini. So interesting. Full
moons are very intense and things kind of come to
a head. So it's the last full moon or the
spring or the first of summer, depending on how you
look at it. And it's a strawberry moon again because
(29:35):
it's strawberry season, and that's the old Farmer's Almanac, and
it's you know, basically appears full on June eleventh, so
we're right on the cusp. So look up in the
sky and you'll see the full moon, and you know,
more intense emotional energy happens during the full moon. The's
kind of come to a head. So it's, you know,
(29:58):
the lot going on on the planet right now.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
Yeah, there's always a lot going on, but for sure
it's it's enhanced this time when there's a full moon,
and it just it just is that.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
And people say, oh, you don't, I don't believe in
that stuff. Trust me.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I whether you believe it or not, it happens because
I've been doing this for twenty years and I know,
I just know when there's a full moon, there's just
a little extra you know what that's out there.
Speaker 6 (30:20):
So yes, and we have Aaron Rodgers as a poster
trial for that with him sharing how much you know,
the possible marriage. He mentioned the wedding ring, how we
wanted to go to the Steelers or not play at all.
So it's interesting that, you know, that's kind of coming
(30:41):
to fruition. So it's really interesting that he's a Sagittarius.
The full moon's and Sagittarius and here he is in
all this glory taking a lot more attention here for sure.
Speaker 2 (30:55):
Well, thank you Andrea and want to say hello to Andrews.
She's on X at Virgo in service. Thank you, Andrey. Okay,
I'm gonna go a good, big basket of strawberries right now.
One of my nature boy writes in Answering the Call
to the Wild, he says, at least the Dodgers got
to run when Conforto came through with a single. You
(31:18):
know you're in trouble when you see Key k with
the weird batting helmet. Yeah, that is Does that not
look like a Little League, like a little League pitcher, Like, Hey,
the kid's not that good. He knows he's gonna get
dinged on the head, so let's give him the helmet out.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
There on the mount. Uh.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Josh writes and says, I agree with you, Ben, suspension
for Dave Roberts.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
Haha, there you go, go, Cubs go. Oh I know
about that, man.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
Sheriff Bart says, can you name the play and the
game that instant replay evolved from?
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Sure, why not? We'll do that later.
Speaker 2 (31:54):
Bill writes in Who's Your Bill? A big pacer guy,
not sending as much pacer propaganda. He says, do you
know how many drinks are sold during an instant replay, bets, etc.
Move on, Yes, that's exactly They're worried about alcohol sales.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
That's why they're doing it.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
And what about the people that turn the game off
during instant replay and don't come back?
Speaker 1 (32:17):
What about those people?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Ferg Dog says, I love that Bob asked how you're
doing to open the call. Not enough callers have good
phone etiquette like Bob. Yeah, that's I love that. There's
nothing better than eighteen people an hour asking how you're
doing so great?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
I just can't get enough of it.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Man Ferg Doug says, how could anyone listen to the
show's podcast seven times?
Speaker 1 (32:40):
My personal best is six?
Speaker 2 (32:43):
To do seven before the next live show airs, you'd
have to skip the commercials or speed it up, which
is wrong.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
You don't speed it up. You do not speed it up.
Don't do it.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Late Night drug tester writes, and from parts on known
he says, I will beat Keg drinking Steve to the punch.
All the AFC quarterbacks had to get married because mahomes
is keeping them from winning any rings.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
But I'm bump there you go, all right? Saw Man writes.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
In form Mississippi says did an ale pitcher get a
hit that seems like a punishable offense. No, Evan, the
depressed Mariner fan. Is there a non depressed Mariner fan?
Evan says, ay, Ben, I'm not one to request things,
but the good people of the Seattle's branch of the
Mallard militia, the contingent there need a Mallard monologue to
(33:34):
absolutely destroy the ownership and the front office of the
Seattle Mariners. You're the best at that the people needed,
duly noted Evan duly noted, hot Mariner talk, not at
all doing on the Today's show, but hot Mariner talk.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Yeah, it will be spicy.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
It will be spicy, and I'm pretty sure that the
person that will take the brunt of that is Jerry.
Photo's still there. And the fact that he's still there,
and he pretty much admitted a couple of years ago
that the goal is not to try to win as
many games he can put a World.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
Series team on the field.
Speaker 2 (34:10):
The goal is just to be slightly above average. That's
Mariner baseball. Just slightly above average. That's all they want,
Just slightly above average.

The play of the day. Let's take you now to New.
Speaker 2 (34:30):
York, the Borough of Queens Flushing to be exact. The
Washington Nationals. We're leading this game for most of the game.
They had a two to nothing lead, a three to
nothing lead, of three to one lead. They were up
four to two when the Mets came back and tied
it in the eighth inning. They went to extra innings,
and then the tire ract play of the night. Leading

Henry Deals right right field, base hit for Jeff Mcneilconia
Rouse third, hustles thrown to the Plancunia race is on
by no tag ball game.

Then swit it again in ten five for New York
over Washington, and Jeff found on who that was?
Speaker 2 (35:15):
I have no idea that whether it's a Mets broadcast
or their Mets radio, but Jeff McNeil doubling home the
winning run of the tenth inning and the Metropolitans get
it done.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
They open the three game set with.
Speaker 2 (35:25):
The Nationals, and they take back that latitude and shove
it down the throats. The New York match have the
top record in the National League. They won four straight
thirteen of sixteen. They're nineteen games above five hundred for
the first time in a few years. There so the
Mets get it done. That is the tire Rack Player
