Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom Shaka laka.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our numberwan, our one of the Tuesday edition for
the Ben mal Show. A happy May nineteenth to you.
We start with some pro bouncy ball, the Western Conference
finals underway, the final four of the NBA and it
was a double overtime thrill up in Okasee.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
This spurs get her done in the end.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So who gets the biggest portion of Oklahoma City's loser
chicken fried steak for SGA's thunder. We'll give that out.
Also thumbs up or thumbs down? Is this performance the
forty plus twenty plus rebound performance for Victor Wembanyama one
that will stand the test of time? Is this an
(00:44):
all time performance by Wemby the Parisian Prodigy? And how
big a deal is the volume of minutes a double
overtime game guys like Wemby and SGA played in that
long extended dance remix. We'll talk about all that and
more right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Well it's oksey uh oh no, well kind of welcome
in not beginning of another night of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
We are in the air and rewere in partnership as
we have a craving of the crunch crunchity, crunchity crunchity,
coast to coast, border, the border and beyond on the
vast and enormously powerful microphones of fsre.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Ammundating live good lie from the Tapestry Just a thread
in the audio Tapestry garanteed Human from the world famous
Fox Sports Radio Studios, where Viva los Vicki reminds us
that this hour may possible in part by our friends
at tire Rack.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
For over forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers
like malprop Guy Fergnog and Alf the Alien Opineer find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire iraq
(02:25):
dot com.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The way the tire buying should be.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
We are back at it, I'm told the most important
game of the night.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Well, it depends if you're hockey fans.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
We are.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You start with the hockey.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Now it's the basketball, and we head to Oklahoma and
the side of famously back in the day the dust Bowl.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
You know you're your history.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
So the much bally hood am I supposed to say
that much Ballyhood matchup between the upper crust of the NBA.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
This is the real NBA finals.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Whoever wins this series is gareron teeth of winning a
championship outside of snap crackle pop. So he had the
NBA Final four, but really the final two because everyone's like, well,
these are the top two teams. And he got started
on Monday night there in the Sooner State San Antonio
versus Oklahoma City, round round one of the scheduled seven
(03:26):
round heavyweight matchup. Not if you watch the game or not,
despite the best laid plans of mice men and marketing
people and having the teams that, if you go by
the record, say well, if you're a sports fan, you'd
have to watch. I don't get the sense there's a
lot of that. Am I wrong on that? I don't
think I am. These teams, despite their success, do not
(03:51):
really move the needle. But there was round one we
watched so you would not have to. It's our good
mits for the day. Congratulations Victor wem ban Yama. He's
very tall and very skinny. Victor Wembanyama had forty one
points and twenty four rebounds. I'm told that's good. Dylan Harper,
(04:12):
the spawn of Hollywood. Harper had twenty four points and
a partridge in a pear tree and San Antonio.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
With wem Banyama and Harper.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Now Harper also had a playoff a team playoff record
for the Spurs seven steels, which I guess is pretty good.
And so San Antonio outlasting Oklahoma City one twenty two
to one fifteen.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
In double over time.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
As my old buddy Alex back in the day, he
used to say double over to me, it's so excaded.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
So that is the beginning.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Isn't an instant classic Okay Western Conference Finals, So the
jump goes to the Spurs. Wem ban Nyama ceiling it up.
He had a pair of dunks in the final minute,
one of them leading to a three point play. Also
had a circus shot at the end of the first
over time, and so home court advantage goes over to
(05:04):
San Antonio. Of course, you imagine that Oklahoma City will
win a game in Texas. It's not that difficult. Game
two will be Wednesday in Oklahoma City, so you get
the Tuesday off back at it there, and these Spurs
have had the number of Oklahoma City. If you watched
the broadcast. You couldn't really hear this because the audio
(05:25):
is tremendously bad. Someone's losing their job over there at NBC.
My god, you probably weren't watching. With the audio on
the first halfage is sounded like robots and it just
stopped all together. Anyway, San Antonio is beating the Thunder
five of the six meetings this season, which seems lopsided.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Oh you're being mean, mallor well, that's a good jumping
off point.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Let us discuss the question who gets the biggest portion
of the Oklahoma City plate of loser chicken fried steak
for SGA's thunder as the thunder down under.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Do not get it done?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
So on this one, I've got Timu, Costco and eucalyptus,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we're gonna play tic tac toe is what we're gonna do.
We're gonna play some tick tactoe. So a, we love
going in the kitchen as a line cook and serving
up a biggie sized meal for chet Holgren and mister
(06:31):
MVP himself SGS. So they get the biggest portion of
the chicken fried steak. Congratulations, there what a dynamic duo,
these two on.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
This particular night.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Again, we have a nightly talk show to do the
dynamic duo of doodoo on this night, Oklahoma City.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If you look at this game here and.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
He said, well, went to double overtime. I couldn't have
played that poorly. Okay, these two though, the first true
arm to table flop and the first loss of the
playoffs for Oklahoma City, and nobody got cooked worse than check.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
So let's start with him. He gets to wear the
Dunce cap.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
He got the country fried, and he also got that
two sides. I'm gonna give him two sides on that
combo meal, and they're both humiliations. So a double scoop
of humiliation on the side. Now, home Gren, to quote
the late great Brian Wheeler, was bemused, bewildered, and bedeviled
(07:32):
the three horsemen of the Apocalypse for Oklahoma City as
they lose this game here, and it was a classic
Southwest airlines. I want to get away situation there for
Chet Holmgren, and you look at home Gren side by side,
if you're watching, and for our blind listeners, let me
try to describe this. So you've got home Grin on
(07:54):
the right, and then you've got Wemby on the left,
side by side, and to the untrained eye, home Gren
looks like Wemby, except it it's Wemby ordered off TIMU Like,
if you say, can I let me go on, Tiamo,
I want to order a Wemby. Okay, we'll get your
Webby and they send you home Gren. He's kind of
around the same height. I know he's a couple of
(08:15):
inches shorter, but he's got none of the features. He's
got none of the features there. And Chet in this
game was useless for the most part. In this game,
he had eight points eight rebounds Homegren did completely failing
to contain Wembanyama, who absolutely torched him with forty one
(08:36):
points and twenty four rebounds. You had as about as
much about even even didn't watch the game or know
anything about the game, You had about as much impact
as Homegren did. And yeah, Homegrind had one block late
in the end of regulation, but uh, for the most part,
it was not much. Chet was was not really guarding Wemby.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Didn't seem like many people were guarding Wemby.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Here. He is kind of walking walking him like a
a rescue Greyhound if you will. So if you do
the side by side, and I know they didn't match
up against each other the entire game, and it's overnight
talk radio. So that's a minus thirty three head to
head in terms of Wemby outscoring HomeGrid. So Homegron was
(09:25):
outscored by thirty three points and the rebounds minus sixteen
in favor of Wemby. So that that doesn't seem good.
You know, it shouldn't be mean. That doesn't seem good.
Then you have the MVP now entering the chat SGA,
who wasn't exactly carving up the San Antonio Spurs. Yeah,
(09:47):
he was doing a lot of damage, carving up the thunders.
Chances he was a net negative in this game. The
thunder were actually better when he was not on the court.
He played most of the game, but they actually statistically
were better when Jogis Alexander was not out there.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
And to the untrained, the casuals, they'll say, well, mall,
what are you talking about? You at twenty four points
and twelve season, you don't know ball? Okay, I do know.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
If it takes you twenty three shots to get twenty
four points, you're.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Not doing your job.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Something is going wrong here, something is going wrong. I'm
just saying, all right now the basketball version of going
to the store and there's a there's a table of
stale bread.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
You pay full price for stale bread. Who play?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Who pays full price for stale bread? You shouldn't pay
full price for that. And the other thing is you figure, well,
she didn't play that. Well, but he's gonna close the
game because he always does. You know, No, he didn't.
He didn't do that. He left the door wide open,
the lights on, and the cash register was wide open.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Something that used to have. Now everything's on credit cards.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
They used to have these things called cash registers where
people kept money back when people.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Used cash back in the day.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
And let's also looked past the fact that Jalen Williams
came back.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
To the lineup here and he was in the lineup
for okay.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
See, and it was really blah, another twenty five point
or twenty five shot game. He took twenty five shots
to get twenty six points. And that was the theme
of the night for Oklahoma City. And they still went
to double overtime and all that. The Spurs were without
Deer and Fox and the thunder were rested, they were healthy,
(11:29):
they were ready to go, and who goofed? I've got
to know. And they screwed that up and it wasn't
a total disaster. Now they got some extra work to do,
all right. Meanwhile, we continue the theme of the hour
here and Victor wembon Yama, did you get your knee pads?
I did not, I ever won in the media. They've
(11:51):
all got their Wemby knee pads on. They're ready to go,
and yeah, now he said. Afterwards, he said that he
was for sure motivated by SGA getting the MVP instead
of him. Adam Silver handed out the award. He did
not announce what part of the cosmos he's from, Adam Silver,
but he you think that Silver and Wemby go to
(12:12):
like some kind of UFO convention and talk about their
native planets and I don't know anyway, So forty one
points twenty four rebounds, big stat line all that we've
talked about that that twenty I think it was like
twenty seven foot three point shot. I've made that back
in the day moneyball mallor I make that shot, no
big deal. So anyway, the fawning to me, the thing
here that stood out. The guy played great. The fawning
(12:35):
is the issue here for me, and I know it's
a me problem. I realize that I just want to
rant and rave. So the question here, this was a
great performance by one of the the next beacon of
the NBA. We all agree on that, all right, every man,
woman and chalking. If we're all nodding our headges, all right,
very good. So question though, is thumbs up or thumbs down?
(12:58):
Is this performance by the Spurs Victor Ween Banyama one
that will stand the test of time?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
That meaning five ten years from now. Do you remember
that night.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
In Oklahoma when when Banyama did all that stuff? Are
we gonna look back at that? And I'm going thumbs
down on this? All right, I'm going thumbs out again
it was great and all that. I'm just going thumbs down.
Why it was game one of the Western Conference Finals.
This is not he didn't find the Lost City of Babylon.
(13:32):
It was game one, okay, not game seven. We don't
need historians chiseling this into marble. Let's hold off on that.
There are brighter lights, bigger stages ahead.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
From when Banyama.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
And now that said, if getting snubbed for the MVP
was the reason that when Banyama went out and put
up that stadline, then Adam Silver should just follow the
Spurs around and hand out runner up MVP plaques to
win by Yama before every game and the Spurs will
(14:06):
never lose again and he'll have forty and twenty five
and have Wilt Chamberlain like numbers.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And that's that. It was a great game. Sure, I
don't think, and maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
I know the NBC broadcast quality was not that great,
so it's possible that he did actually split the atom
when the feed was lost by NBC, or it's I
think at halftime he cured hiccups, so that was a
pretty big Did that get announced that when by Yama
cured hiccups at half? No, it did not get announced.
Interesting all right, So the NBA media did not actually
cover the game. I determined based on the feedback of
(14:37):
my colleagues in the NBA media. The mainstream media did
not cover the game. They actually wrote a love letter.
It was very sweet of them. These people have jobs
at Hallmark down the line. They wrote a love level,
a love letter, and they sprintched it. They put a
little sprits of cologne and then several of the TV people.
I was shocked by this. They actually gave when Be
(15:00):
a Swedish massage and some essential oils after the I
was very sweet of them.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
They didn't have to do that.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
That was very sweet of the NBA media. My god,
the brown nosing brigade, oh man, they love it right
put them see the probably women's You can't really put
him on a pedestal.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
He's so tall. You don't need to put him on
a pedestal.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
But somebody goes to Costco and buy a I want
to buy a palette size thing of.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Towels because there's a lot of brown.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Nosing going on in the NBA media and I will
not be part of it.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
The Parisian Prodigy is twenty two.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
He was born four years after I started here at
Fox Sports Radio, and I think there's some leftovers in
my refrigerator that are older than when by name. It
was a great performance. The coronation parade can wait for me. Yeah,
the praise is so syrupy. I believe I need to
check my insulin levels at this point.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It was. It was really over the top. Now the
last word.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
The other thing and this is really therapeutic for me,
and you happen to be listening to my individual therapy session.
The other thing I took away from San Antonio and
Oklahoma City in the post game was not only the
amount of a tongue bath that when by Yama got.
In addition to that, though, it was you would think
(16:18):
the players in this game were literally on their deathbed
because it went to double overtime. Oh my god, Wemby
played forty eight minutes over the total game, and I
believe it was SGA that went fifty one minutes.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Oh my god, are we passing out purple hearts to
these guys? Is that what we're doing? The question is
how big a deal? How big a deal is the
volume of.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Minutes required to play for guys like Wemby, SGA and
others in this double overtime thriller from Oklahoma City. So
look the teams, it's gonna blow your mind. So they
play had fifty eight total minutes because each overtime's five minutes,
So it's fifty eight total minutes, forty eight regulation, ten
(17:07):
total overtime, two five minute periods. So they didn't play
fifty eight days. They played fifty eight minutes a shock,
And are we really pretending that fifty eight minutes of
basketball is some kind of humanitarian crisis? Do we need
to call the federal government in here? Do we do
we need to get FEMA involved in this, the National Guard,
(17:30):
call somebody in here and help out Oklahoma City. And
since I'm telling you, it's like it's all my goodness,
and the game lasted the actual in real time, it
was like three hours, three hours, So my computer like
brain tells me that if the game lasted in real
time three hours from when they started to when it ended,
that would mean they had, if I'm correct, here, one
(17:52):
hundred and twenty two minutes roughly of not playing basketball
something like that, and fifty eight minutes where they play.
In those fifty eight minutes, there were a lot of timeouts,
TV timeouts, foul shooting, all that stuff. So, okay, I
don't think this was a death sentence. It might have been,
I don't think it was. It was a cardio session
with cameras TV cameras, and pretty confident that Wemby and
(18:17):
SGA we we did not send them to some kind
of North Korean labor camp outside pyeong Yang.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
We didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
They weren't making bigger rocks into smaller rocks. That that
did not happen. I think at one point SGA did
have to drag a boulder up a mountain. I might
have been imagining that for the state, but last I
checked out. I mean, maybe I'm wrong on this, but
I think they're all most of these almost all of
them are in their in their twenties. A lot of
them are in their early twenties. They're well paid. They're
(18:48):
not long shortman, they're not coal miners. They're they're just
basketball players. They play three or three games a week.
If they play four, they bitch about it. If they
play five, they should tire. They are so worn out.
So it's a very difficult job. So feel bad for
them having to play a double overtime game in the playoffs.
And I don't think they're sleeping in the airport terminal.
(19:11):
I don't think that's going on. I don't believe they're
eating those white Castle vending machine burgers.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I don't think that's happening.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
And I think what's going to happen here is these
guys will be escorted to cryo chambers.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
They will be handed a.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Trip to a steam room with eucalyptus steam to help
them recover. They'll have that and their personal chefs will
cook up a nice feast.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
So to quote Aaron Rodgers. Relax. Relax.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Both teams played the same amount of minutes. I don't
think anyone's going to die. Everything will be okay. And
it's I think it's supposed to be hard at least. See,
this is the problem. I'm you know, I guess I'm
older because I always was told that it's supposed to
be hard.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
That's why they call it the playoffs. Nowadays, o's too hard.
Oh my, on you losers.

we'll say. I was hoping this guy would call in.
I wondered what happened. I reached out to him. He
did not respond. Let's say hello to Van the One
Legged Bamba Man. Hello, Van the one Legged Bamba Man.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
Welcome, Hello, mister Benny. I got some breaking.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
News, breaking news, breaking news from Van the one Legged
Bama Man.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
I was breaking news from Fox Sports kind of kind
of man.
Speaker 9 (26:28):
I was just scrolling through YouTube, ran across your boy
cow turn uh doing a podcast. I don't know what
podcasts stick Black guy all right, he's telling a story
about his first job in Vegas in the late eighties
early nineties and He's in an Italian restaurant and Tony
(26:51):
Pilatro and three other mobsters are in there, and he
thinks her staring at him, and he thinks they think
he's a mob order, and he's too scared to go
by him and go to the bat for room. Well,
Tony's blancho was killed in nineteen eighty six. There was
no Tony's blancho in like that eighties.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
And earady that that's unfortunate.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Story is total.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
But yes, all right, all.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Right, I'm glad that you called to use my platform
to rip the most important person at the company.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I appreciate that. Okay, that'll go over well with me,
you know, I appreciate that.
Speaker 5 (27:27):
Well, you know, there's word and you pol there's word.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Now, man, I was concerned. We've not talked to you
in some time. In fact, I actually reached out to you.
You did not respond. I sent you an email and
you did not.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
I did you ever check my email?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That would be accurate. You do not check your email.
I checked in with you because I was worried. You
said you were going through some medical stuff and then
you hadn't called in a while, so I was like, obviously,
see what Van's up to and then you didn't respond,
and so that was I was a little concern because
I figured you'd write back, but you didn't right back.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But everything's okay.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm still kicking, I'm still haired, hell problems, but I'm
all right.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
For those who don't know, if you're new to the show,
Van the One Legged Bama Man, the greatest story I've
ever had from someone that has called the show. Van
was out in the swamp somewhere and had his leg
bitten by in Louisiana. He was in a swamp in Louisiana,
had his leg bitten pretty much off by a gator.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
And then you're who was your cousin or your brother?
So who came with you? Your cousin?
Speaker 2 (28:31):
His cousin went out there and did what any right
standing person would do, killed the gator.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
And then you ate. You ate the gator that ate
your leg? Is that correct?
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Yes? Later on we did eat the gator. His mom
was a great.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Good Van the One Legged Bama Man.
Speaker 5 (28:49):
Tail.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I have never eaten gator tail? What's it taste like?
Speaker 5 (28:52):
Oh? Man, it is the mostious chicken you'll ever eat.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Well else you put spices on it all that right,
and yeah, doesn't he doesn't taste like fish though I
don't like that fish.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
No, it's more of a chicken taste it. So it's good.
It's not wild game. He tasting like you know, us
and gamba other animals.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I got you, I got you all right. Well listen,
I'm glad you're doing all right. We'll have to call
more often here. We'll have some hot baseball talk that
braves are playing well. It's it's May, but they're playing well.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So you got that.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Car made spurs to win it all for my futures.
I got okay, see in the sperm, but I win
more over the spurm.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
So far you're in good shape. It's one game. I'm
told they have to win three more games.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
So you're all right. Well, thank you Van, thanks for checking.
Check your email. Van out Dare you all right? Thank you?
Go away, I said Van. The one legged Bama man.
So the post game decree.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That would be Stefan Castle who walked over while when
Banyama was on the NBC postgame interview and he yelled
best player in the effing world. Of course, as we know,
the term best means as good as all the rest
in that category. So he just means that Wemby's as
(30:08):
good as every other NBA player, although something tells me
that Stefan Castle did not mean it in that light,
and he did clearly say the F word on NBC.
I think we're all good with that. Remember when David
Ortiz after the Boston Marathon bombing, and Ortiz came out
and the Red Sox game and this is our FN
(30:29):
city and said all that, and they didn't get in
any trouble with the FCC. So I think it was
a postgame athlete cursing. I think you're you're all right.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Let's go to Texas Jack. I haven't heard from him
in a while. Hello, Texas Jack, you are on the
Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 5 (30:45):
Welcome Bill Miller. How you doing, buddy?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
If I was any better, I would have my Luca
don Zik Mavericks Jersey on right now.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
But no, that's a throwback at this point, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:00):
Yes, yes, quack or throw back. Yeah, I got I
got tickled earlier when you were talking to Bam, the
one legged Bama Man or yeah he said uh he
said he was still kicking body and slipped there. Yeah,
I'm still.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
You can kick with one leg. You just gotta be
able to be very agile. You gotta be very agile,
you know, you gotta be kick and then.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
Sitting down kicking contest.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
He seems like a tough guy, Like the guy killed
the gator and then ate it that bit his leg off.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
That seems pretty tough to me. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (31:42):
That seems like the what you should do.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, you brought it back. Yeah, you know,
eye for an eye, I guess everyone's blind. Gater for
a gator.
Speaker 8 (31:55):
You're giving the damn spurs and Okay, see a hard
time about maybe not being as viewed as teams should
be in this situation, Well, that.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Would be accurate, explaining Jack. So, I do broadcasting, not
narrow casting. I feel like this is a narrow casting
Western Conference Finals. I feel like this is a narrow
audience and it's not a large audience.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Yeah, that's my problem. That's I have a talk show
to do. That's my issue.
Speaker 8 (32:24):
If the Clippers made it, they would they would be
a broadcast, right.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Well, they are the people's team and they represent the
working person, so yes, they would be very relatable to people.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
The Great Underdog story, the overcoming the odds. Who wouldn't
like that? Nobody would be watching Jack, everyone would be watching.
Speaker 8 (32:44):
The thing about that is we may never find out.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
That's a great point. I love how Coop wakes up
when you mentioned the Clippers.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I love that all of a sudden he's like, oh,
now we got something, Now we got something. Yeah, listen, Jack,
you are for the rest of the time you call
the show. You were such a fanboy for Luca. You
have nothing left. You've been ruined by that trade.
Speaker 8 (33:05):
That my hart's been drug out. But the flag is
being rose.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Nah.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, you still sound like a broken man. To me,
you still sound like a broken man.
Speaker 8 (33:14):
I'm crushed. It's your believing you where you're at work.
You come home from work and all your ship's gone.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Yeah gone, Yeah that stuff, We'll say, stuff's gone. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Well that's you're a truck driver. That's what truck That's
how truck drivers are you. Just you talk like Stefan
Castle's what you did.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
That's what you did.
Speaker 8 (33:32):
Just talk like, I'm sorry about that slip there.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
I'm gonna find you ten thousand dollars. You'll be okay, though,
are you that no problem?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (33:39):
Yeah, sure, yeah? Dropping the bucket.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Checks in the mail.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yes, yeah, okay, very good, all right, thank you call
Moore off in Texas, Jack, Away, there you go.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I like that you just want to mention the Clippers.
I love that because the Clippers matter. That you just
made my point, Texas Jack, like you randomly called up
and brought up the clippers.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
I didn't bring the clippers up. You brought the clippers
up because they move the needle. They move the needle.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Absolutely, Rob says, Wemby is the real MVP over Mahler's
former Clipper prize SGA. Well no, actually, Sga was the
regular season MVP. He it wasn't even close. Wemby didn't
even finish second in the MVP voting. The Russian kid says,
how does the bamamn still kicking?
Speaker 1 (34:25):
How is he still kicking? In VS?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
One?
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Everyone's bringing this up. I listen, We've addressed that. Huh uh.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Ankatara says, wait, if the one legged bamba man ate
the alligator that ate his leg, does that mean that
he ate his own leg?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I've got to know.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
No.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
They they were able to take the leg out of
the gator and then they consumed the gator.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Joe the Ghost Hunter, who was at the Great Ohio
Meet and Greet there met him could do. Joe the
Ghost Hunter says, Gator nuggets are amazing. They taste like chicken.
It's all about the chicken man. Well, and Guardina says
Anthony in Louisiana wishes that he and Lorena were kissing cousins.
He says, they're sincerely the Carolinas, the Virginia's, the Kentucky,
(35:07):
the Appalachia whatever. That's Manuel in Guardina in southern California.
Here what else we have, let's see u Phaige Nan Boso,
the district attorney, says the definition of best to courtad
Dictionary dot com. Well, Boso, I know this all over
your head because you're You're Boso, the district attorney. But
in the advertising world, okay, I mean it's a little
(35:28):
different here, right, So the advertising world, there have been
lawsuits that determined that if you say you have the
best turkey sandwich, you can say you have the world's
best turkey sandwich. That is, they were decided in court
years ago. You can go look it up. It's on
you know, you have to go to the dark web,
I guess, but it was determined years ago that the
term best means as good as all the rest.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
If you say that.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
My turkey sandwich is better than everyone else's turkey sandwich,
you could then be libel out of libels, or everyone'd
be sued. You have to then prove in court why
it is better. So if you listen in advertising, you
will hear the term best all the time. You will
not hear the term better because if you say better,
you have to back it up and you open yourself
(36:12):
up to litigations. Fergduck says, the clippers rule and the
haters rule absolutely correct. That's a good take by you.
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. As we are rolling, rolling,
and rolling through the overnight time. Now for the who
am I?
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Game?
Speaker 2 (36:27):
And we'll go back to that Western Conference Finals game one. Then,
Spurs guard Stefan Castle joined James Harden, Tim Duncan and
Me is the only players since nineteen eighty four to
commit ten or more turnovers in a playoff victory. Again,
(36:48):

me is the only player since nineteen eighty four to
commit ten or more turnovers in a victory who in
the playoffs?

Back to it we go. And before we get to
the who am I Game? The play all the day?
Speaker 1 (37:59):
Now.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
There was a point when I covered the NBA and
the Stone Age where if you took a shot from
mid court, the coach would take you out of the
game and whip your ass now if you don't take
a shot from half court something drong. The play of
the night, Well Wemby doing Wemby like things for the
Spurs and overtime Castle to Wemby rising deep.

finals underway, the final four of the NBA and it
was a double overtime thrill up in Okasee.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
This spurs get her done in the end.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
So who gets the biggest portion of Oklahoma City's loser
chicken fried steak for SGA's thunder. We'll give that out.
Also thumbs up or thumbs down? Is this performance the
forty plus twenty plus rebound performance for Victor Wembanyama one
that will stand the test of time? Is this an
(00:44):
all time performance by Wemby the Parisian Prodigy? And how
big a deal is the volume of minutes a double
overtime game guys like Wemby and SGA played in that
long extended dance remix. We'll talk about all that and
more right now here. It is our number one.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Well it's oksey uh oh no, well kind of welcome
in not beginning of another night of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 4 (01:21):
We are in the air and rewere in partnership as
we have a craving of the crunch crunchity, crunchity crunchity,
coast to coast, border, the border and beyond on the
vast and enormously powerful microphones of fsre.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Ammundating live good lie from the Tapestry Just a thread
in the audio Tapestry garanteed Human from the world famous
Fox Sports Radio Studios, where Viva los Vicki reminds us
that this hour may possible in part by our friends
at tire Rack.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
That's right.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
For over forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers
like malprop Guy Fergnog and Alf the Alien Opineer find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive,
ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire iraq
(02:25):
dot com.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
The way the tire buying should be.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
We are back at it, I'm told the most important
game of the night.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
Well, it depends if you're hockey fans.
Speaker 5 (02:35):
We are.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You start with the hockey.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
Now it's the basketball, and we head to Oklahoma and
the side of famously back in the day the dust Bowl.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
You know you're your history.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
So the much bally hood am I supposed to say
that much Ballyhood matchup between the upper crust of the NBA.
Speaker 1 (02:59):
This is the real NBA finals.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Whoever wins this series is gareron teeth of winning a
championship outside of snap crackle pop. So he had the
NBA Final four, but really the final two because everyone's like, well,
these are the top two teams. And he got started
on Monday night there in the Sooner State San Antonio
versus Oklahoma City, round round one of the scheduled seven
(03:26):
round heavyweight matchup. Not if you watch the game or not,
despite the best laid plans of mice men and marketing
people and having the teams that, if you go by
the record, say well, if you're a sports fan, you'd
have to watch. I don't get the sense there's a
lot of that. Am I wrong on that? I don't
think I am. These teams, despite their success, do not
(03:51):
really move the needle. But there was round one we
watched so you would not have to. It's our good
mits for the day. Congratulations Victor wem ban Yama. He's
very tall and very skinny. Victor Wembanyama had forty one
points and twenty four rebounds. I'm told that's good. Dylan Harper,
(04:12):
the spawn of Hollywood. Harper had twenty four points and
a partridge in a pear tree and San Antonio.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
With wem Banyama and Harper.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Now Harper also had a playoff a team playoff record
for the Spurs seven steels, which I guess is pretty good.
And so San Antonio outlasting Oklahoma City one twenty two
to one fifteen.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
In double over time.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
As my old buddy Alex back in the day, he
used to say double over to me, it's so excaded.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
So that is the beginning.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Isn't an instant classic Okay Western Conference Finals, So the
jump goes to the Spurs. Wem ban Nyama ceiling it up.
He had a pair of dunks in the final minute,
one of them leading to a three point play. Also
had a circus shot at the end of the first
over time, and so home court advantage goes over to
(05:04):
San Antonio. Of course, you imagine that Oklahoma City will
win a game in Texas. It's not that difficult. Game
two will be Wednesday in Oklahoma City, so you get
the Tuesday off back at it there, and these Spurs
have had the number of Oklahoma City. If you watched
the broadcast. You couldn't really hear this because the audio
(05:25):
is tremendously bad. Someone's losing their job over there at NBC.
My god, you probably weren't watching. With the audio on
the first halfage is sounded like robots and it just
stopped all together. Anyway, San Antonio is beating the Thunder
five of the six meetings this season, which seems lopsided.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Oh you're being mean, mallor well, that's a good jumping
off point.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Let us discuss the question who gets the biggest portion
of the Oklahoma City plate of loser chicken fried steak
for SGA's thunder as the thunder down under.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Do not get it done?
Speaker 2 (06:06):
So on this one, I've got Timu, Costco and eucalyptus,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we're gonna play tic tac toe is what we're gonna do.
We're gonna play some tick tactoe. So a, we love
going in the kitchen as a line cook and serving
up a biggie sized meal for chet Holgren and mister
(06:31):
MVP himself SGS. So they get the biggest portion of
the chicken fried steak. Congratulations, there what a dynamic duo,
these two on.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
This particular night.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Again, we have a nightly talk show to do the
dynamic duo of doodoo on this night, Oklahoma City.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
If you look at this game here and.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
He said, well, went to double overtime. I couldn't have
played that poorly. Okay, these two though, the first true
arm to table flop and the first loss of the
playoffs for Oklahoma City, and nobody got cooked worse than check.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
So let's start with him. He gets to wear the
Dunce cap.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
He got the country fried, and he also got that
two sides. I'm gonna give him two sides on that
combo meal, and they're both humiliations. So a double scoop
of humiliation on the side. Now, home Gren, to quote
the late great Brian Wheeler, was bemused, bewildered, and bedeviled
(07:32):
the three horsemen of the Apocalypse for Oklahoma City as
they lose this game here, and it was a classic
Southwest airlines. I want to get away situation there for
Chet Holmgren, and you look at home Gren side by side,
if you're watching, and for our blind listeners, let me
try to describe this. So you've got home Grin on
(07:54):
the right, and then you've got Wemby on the left,
side by side, and to the untrained eye, home Gren
looks like Wemby, except it it's Wemby ordered off TIMU Like,
if you say, can I let me go on, Tiamo,
I want to order a Wemby. Okay, we'll get your
Webby and they send you home Gren. He's kind of
around the same height. I know he's a couple of
(08:15):
inches shorter, but he's got none of the features. He's
got none of the features there. And Chet in this
game was useless for the most part. In this game,
he had eight points eight rebounds Homegren did completely failing
to contain Wembanyama, who absolutely torched him with forty one
(08:36):
points and twenty four rebounds. You had as about as
much about even even didn't watch the game or know
anything about the game, You had about as much impact
as Homegren did. And yeah, Homegrind had one block late
in the end of regulation, but uh, for the most part,
it was not much. Chet was was not really guarding Wemby.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
Didn't seem like many people were guarding Wemby.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Here. He is kind of walking walking him like a
a rescue Greyhound if you will. So if you do
the side by side, and I know they didn't match
up against each other the entire game, and it's overnight
talk radio. So that's a minus thirty three head to
head in terms of Wemby outscoring HomeGrid. So Homegron was
(09:25):
outscored by thirty three points and the rebounds minus sixteen
in favor of Wemby. So that that doesn't seem good.
You know, it shouldn't be mean. That doesn't seem good.
Then you have the MVP now entering the chat SGA,
who wasn't exactly carving up the San Antonio Spurs. Yeah,
(09:47):
he was doing a lot of damage, carving up the thunders.
Chances he was a net negative in this game. The
thunder were actually better when he was not on the court.
He played most of the game, but they actually statistically
were better when Jogis Alexander was not out there.
Speaker 1 (10:04):
And to the untrained, the casuals, they'll say, well, mall,
what are you talking about? You at twenty four points
and twelve season, you don't know ball? Okay, I do know.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
If it takes you twenty three shots to get twenty
four points, you're.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Not doing your job.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
Something is going wrong here, something is going wrong. I'm
just saying, all right now the basketball version of going
to the store and there's a there's a table of
stale bread.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
You pay full price for stale bread. Who play?
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Who pays full price for stale bread? You shouldn't pay
full price for that. And the other thing is you figure, well,
she didn't play that. Well, but he's gonna close the
game because he always does. You know, No, he didn't.
He didn't do that. He left the door wide open,
the lights on, and the cash register was wide open.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
Something that used to have. Now everything's on credit cards.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
They used to have these things called cash registers where
people kept money back when people.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
Used cash back in the day.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
And let's also looked past the fact that Jalen Williams
came back.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
To the lineup here and he was in the lineup
for okay.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
See, and it was really blah, another twenty five point
or twenty five shot game. He took twenty five shots
to get twenty six points. And that was the theme
of the night for Oklahoma City. And they still went
to double overtime and all that. The Spurs were without
Deer and Fox and the thunder were rested, they were healthy,
(11:29):
they were ready to go, and who goofed? I've got
to know. And they screwed that up and it wasn't
a total disaster. Now they got some extra work to do,
all right. Meanwhile, we continue the theme of the hour
here and Victor wembon Yama, did you get your knee pads?
I did not, I ever won in the media. They've
(11:51):
all got their Wemby knee pads on. They're ready to go,
and yeah, now he said. Afterwards, he said that he
was for sure motivated by SGA getting the MVP instead
of him. Adam Silver handed out the award. He did
not announce what part of the cosmos he's from, Adam Silver,
but he you think that Silver and Wemby go to
(12:12):
like some kind of UFO convention and talk about their
native planets and I don't know anyway, So forty one
points twenty four rebounds, big stat line all that we've
talked about that that twenty I think it was like
twenty seven foot three point shot. I've made that back
in the day moneyball mallor I make that shot, no
big deal. So anyway, the fawning to me, the thing
here that stood out. The guy played great. The fawning
(12:35):
is the issue here for me, and I know it's
a me problem. I realize that I just want to
rant and rave. So the question here, this was a
great performance by one of the the next beacon of
the NBA. We all agree on that, all right, every man,
woman and chalking. If we're all nodding our headges, all right,
very good. So question though, is thumbs up or thumbs down?
(12:58):
Is this performance by the Spurs Victor Ween Banyama one
that will stand the test of time?
Speaker 1 (13:07):
That meaning five ten years from now. Do you remember
that night.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
In Oklahoma when when Banyama did all that stuff? Are
we gonna look back at that? And I'm going thumbs
down on this? All right, I'm going thumbs out again
it was great and all that. I'm just going thumbs down.
Why it was game one of the Western Conference Finals.
This is not he didn't find the Lost City of Babylon.
(13:32):
It was game one, okay, not game seven. We don't
need historians chiseling this into marble. Let's hold off on that.
There are brighter lights, bigger stages ahead.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
From when Banyama.
Speaker 2 (13:46):
And now that said, if getting snubbed for the MVP
was the reason that when Banyama went out and put
up that stadline, then Adam Silver should just follow the
Spurs around and hand out runner up MVP plaques to
win by Yama before every game and the Spurs will
(14:06):
never lose again and he'll have forty and twenty five
and have Wilt Chamberlain like numbers.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
And that's that. It was a great game. Sure, I
don't think, and maybe I'm wrong.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
I know the NBC broadcast quality was not that great,
so it's possible that he did actually split the atom
when the feed was lost by NBC, or it's I
think at halftime he cured hiccups, so that was a
pretty big Did that get announced that when by Yama
cured hiccups at half? No, it did not get announced.
Interesting all right, So the NBA media did not actually
cover the game. I determined based on the feedback of
(14:37):
my colleagues in the NBA media. The mainstream media did
not cover the game. They actually wrote a love letter.
It was very sweet of them. These people have jobs
at Hallmark down the line. They wrote a love level,
a love letter, and they sprintched it. They put a
little sprits of cologne and then several of the TV people.
I was shocked by this. They actually gave when Be
(15:00):
a Swedish massage and some essential oils after the I
was very sweet of them.
Speaker 1 (15:05):
They didn't have to do that.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
That was very sweet of the NBA media. My god,
the brown nosing brigade, oh man, they love it right
put them see the probably women's You can't really put
him on a pedestal.
Speaker 1 (15:17):
He's so tall. You don't need to put him on
a pedestal.
Speaker 2 (15:20):
But somebody goes to Costco and buy a I want
to buy a palette size thing of.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Towels because there's a lot of brown.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Nosing going on in the NBA media and I will
not be part of it.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
The Parisian Prodigy is twenty two.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
He was born four years after I started here at
Fox Sports Radio, and I think there's some leftovers in
my refrigerator that are older than when by name. It
was a great performance. The coronation parade can wait for me. Yeah,
the praise is so syrupy. I believe I need to
check my insulin levels at this point.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
It was. It was really over the top. Now the
last word.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
The other thing and this is really therapeutic for me,
and you happen to be listening to my individual therapy session.
The other thing I took away from San Antonio and
Oklahoma City in the post game was not only the
amount of a tongue bath that when by Yama got.
In addition to that, though, it was you would think
(16:18):
the players in this game were literally on their deathbed
because it went to double overtime. Oh my god, Wemby
played forty eight minutes over the total game, and I
believe it was SGA that went fifty one minutes.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Oh my god, are we passing out purple hearts to
these guys? Is that what we're doing? The question is
how big a deal? How big a deal is the
volume of.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
Minutes required to play for guys like Wemby, SGA and
others in this double overtime thriller from Oklahoma City. So
look the teams, it's gonna blow your mind. So they
play had fifty eight total minutes because each overtime's five minutes,
So it's fifty eight total minutes, forty eight regulation, ten
(17:07):
total overtime, two five minute periods. So they didn't play
fifty eight days. They played fifty eight minutes a shock,
And are we really pretending that fifty eight minutes of
basketball is some kind of humanitarian crisis? Do we need
to call the federal government in here? Do we do
we need to get FEMA involved in this, the National Guard,
(17:30):
call somebody in here and help out Oklahoma City. And
since I'm telling you, it's like it's all my goodness,
and the game lasted the actual in real time, it
was like three hours, three hours, So my computer like
brain tells me that if the game lasted in real
time three hours from when they started to when it ended,
that would mean they had, if I'm correct, here, one
(17:52):
hundred and twenty two minutes roughly of not playing basketball
something like that, and fifty eight minutes where they play.
In those fifty eight minutes, there were a lot of timeouts,
TV timeouts, foul shooting, all that stuff. So, okay, I
don't think this was a death sentence. It might have been,
I don't think it was. It was a cardio session
with cameras TV cameras, and pretty confident that Wemby and
(18:17):
SGA we we did not send them to some kind
of North Korean labor camp outside pyeong Yang.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
We didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
They weren't making bigger rocks into smaller rocks. That that
did not happen. I think at one point SGA did
have to drag a boulder up a mountain. I might
have been imagining that for the state, but last I
checked out. I mean, maybe I'm wrong on this, but
I think they're all most of these almost all of
them are in their in their twenties. A lot of
them are in their early twenties. They're well paid. They're
(18:48):
not long shortman, they're not coal miners. They're they're just
basketball players. They play three or three games a week.
If they play four, they bitch about it. If they
play five, they should tire. They are so worn out.
So it's a very difficult job. So feel bad for
them having to play a double overtime game in the playoffs.
And I don't think they're sleeping in the airport terminal.
(19:11):
I don't think that's going on. I don't believe they're
eating those white Castle vending machine burgers.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I don't think that's happening.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
And I think what's going to happen here is these
guys will be escorted to cryo chambers.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
They will be handed a.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
Trip to a steam room with eucalyptus steam to help
them recover. They'll have that and their personal chefs will
cook up a nice feast.
Speaker 1 (19:36):
So to quote Aaron Rodgers. Relax. Relax.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
Both teams played the same amount of minutes. I don't
think anyone's going to die. Everything will be okay. And
it's I think it's supposed to be hard at least. See,
this is the problem. I'm you know, I guess I'm
older because I always was told that it's supposed to
be hard.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
That's why they call it the playoffs. Nowadays, o's too hard.
Oh my, on you losers.

It was only a couple of minutes off on that,
only a few minutes off. Let's go the oes and
we'll say. I was hoping this guy would call in.
I wondered what happened. I reached out to him. He
did not respond. Let's say hello to Van the One
Legged Bamba Man. Hello, Van the one Legged Bamba Man.
Speaker 5 (26:11):
Welcome, Hello, mister Benny. I got some breaking.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
News, breaking news, breaking news from Van the one Legged
Bama Man.
Speaker 6 (26:22):
I was breaking news from Fox Sports kind of kind
of man.
Speaker 9 (26:28):
I was just scrolling through YouTube, ran across your boy
cow turn uh doing a podcast. I don't know what
podcasts stick Black guy all right, he's telling a story
about his first job in Vegas in the late eighties
early nineties and He's in an Italian restaurant and Tony
(26:51):
Pilatro and three other mobsters are in there, and he
thinks her staring at him, and he thinks they think
he's a mob order, and he's too scared to go
by him and go to the bat for room. Well,
Tony's blancho was killed in nineteen eighty six. There was
no Tony's blancho in like that eighties.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
And earady that that's unfortunate.
Speaker 5 (27:14):
Story is total.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
But yes, all right, all.
Speaker 2 (27:17):
Right, I'm glad that you called to use my platform
to rip the most important person at the company.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I appreciate that. Okay, that'll go over well with me,
you know, I appreciate that.
Speaker 5 (27:27):
Well, you know, there's word and you pol there's word.
Speaker 2 (27:31):
Now, man, I was concerned. We've not talked to you
in some time. In fact, I actually reached out to you.
You did not respond. I sent you an email and
you did not.
Speaker 5 (27:39):
I did you ever check my email?
Speaker 2 (27:41):
That would be accurate. You do not check your email.
I checked in with you because I was worried. You
said you were going through some medical stuff and then
you hadn't called in a while, so I was like, obviously,
see what Van's up to and then you didn't respond,
and so that was I was a little concern because
I figured you'd write back, but you didn't right back.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
But everything's okay.
Speaker 5 (27:57):
I'm still kicking, I'm still haired, hell problems, but I'm
all right.
Speaker 8 (28:03):
Now.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
For those who don't know, if you're new to the show,
Van the One Legged Bama Man, the greatest story I've
ever had from someone that has called the show. Van
was out in the swamp somewhere and had his leg
bitten by in Louisiana. He was in a swamp in Louisiana,
had his leg bitten pretty much off by a gator.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
And then you're who was your cousin or your brother?
So who came with you? Your cousin?
Speaker 2 (28:31):
His cousin went out there and did what any right
standing person would do, killed the gator.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
And then you ate. You ate the gator that ate
your leg? Is that correct?
Speaker 5 (28:42):
Yes? Later on we did eat the gator. His mom
was a great.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Good Van the One Legged Bama Man.
Speaker 5 (28:49):
Tail.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
I have never eaten gator tail? What's it taste like?
Speaker 5 (28:52):
Oh? Man, it is the mostious chicken you'll ever eat.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Well else you put spices on it all that right,
and yeah, doesn't he doesn't taste like fish though I
don't like that fish.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
No, it's more of a chicken taste it. So it's good.
It's not wild game. He tasting like you know, us
and gamba other animals.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
I got you, I got you all right. Well listen,
I'm glad you're doing all right. We'll have to call
more often here. We'll have some hot baseball talk that
braves are playing well. It's it's May, but they're playing well.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
So you got that.
Speaker 5 (29:26):
Car made spurs to win it all for my futures.
I got okay, see in the sperm, but I win
more over the spurm.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
So far you're in good shape. It's one game. I'm
told they have to win three more games.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
So you're all right. Well, thank you Van, thanks for checking.
Check your email. Van out Dare you all right? Thank you?
Go away, I said Van. The one legged Bama man.
So the post game decree.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
That would be Stefan Castle who walked over while when
Banyama was on the NBC postgame interview and he yelled
best player in the effing world. Of course, as we know,
the term best means as good as all the rest
in that category. So he just means that Wemby's as
(30:08):
good as every other NBA player, although something tells me
that Stefan Castle did not mean it in that light,
and he did clearly say the F word on NBC.
I think we're all good with that. Remember when David
Ortiz after the Boston Marathon bombing, and Ortiz came out
and the Red Sox game and this is our FN
(30:29):
city and said all that, and they didn't get in
any trouble with the FCC. So I think it was
a postgame athlete cursing. I think you're you're all right.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
Let's go to Texas Jack. I haven't heard from him
in a while. Hello, Texas Jack, you are on the
Ben Maler Show.
Speaker 5 (30:45):
Welcome Bill Miller. How you doing, buddy?
Speaker 2 (30:49):
If I was any better, I would have my Luca
don Zik Mavericks Jersey on right now.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
But no, that's a throwback at this point, you know.
Speaker 8 (31:00):
Yes, yes, quack or throw back. Yeah, I got I
got tickled earlier when you were talking to Bam, the
one legged Bama Man or yeah he said uh he
said he was still kicking body and slipped there. Yeah,
I'm still.
Speaker 1 (31:21):
You can kick with one leg. You just gotta be
able to be very agile. You gotta be very agile,
you know, you gotta be kick and then.
Speaker 8 (31:30):
Sitting down kicking contest.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
He seems like a tough guy, Like the guy killed
the gator and then ate it that bit his leg off.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
That seems pretty tough to me. I don't know.
Speaker 8 (31:42):
That seems like the what you should do.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, you brought it back. Yeah, you know,
eye for an eye, I guess everyone's blind. Gater for
a gator.
Speaker 8 (31:55):
You're giving the damn spurs and Okay, see a hard
time about maybe not being as viewed as teams should
be in this situation, Well, that.
Speaker 2 (32:07):
Would be accurate, explaining Jack. So, I do broadcasting, not
narrow casting. I feel like this is a narrow casting
Western Conference Finals. I feel like this is a narrow
audience and it's not a large audience.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
Yeah, that's my problem. That's I have a talk show
to do. That's my issue.
Speaker 8 (32:24):
If the Clippers made it, they would they would be
a broadcast, right.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Well, they are the people's team and they represent the
working person, so yes, they would be very relatable to people.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
The Great Underdog story, the overcoming the odds. Who wouldn't
like that? Nobody would be watching Jack, everyone would be watching.
Speaker 8 (32:44):
The thing about that is we may never find out.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
That's a great point. I love how Coop wakes up
when you mentioned the Clippers.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
I love that all of a sudden he's like, oh,
now we got something, Now we got something. Yeah, listen, Jack,
you are for the rest of the time you call
the show. You were such a fanboy for Luca. You
have nothing left. You've been ruined by that trade.
Speaker 8 (33:05):
That my hart's been drug out. But the flag is
being rose.
Speaker 6 (33:09):
Nah.
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, you still sound like a broken man. To me,
you still sound like a broken man.
Speaker 8 (33:14):
I'm crushed. It's your believing you where you're at work.
You come home from work and all your ship's gone.
Speaker 1 (33:22):
Yeah gone, Yeah that stuff, We'll say, stuff's gone. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Well that's you're a truck driver. That's what truck That's
how truck drivers are you. Just you talk like Stefan
Castle's what you did.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
That's what you did.
Speaker 8 (33:32):
Just talk like, I'm sorry about that slip there.
Speaker 2 (33:35):
I'm gonna find you ten thousand dollars. You'll be okay, though,
are you that no problem?
Speaker 3 (33:38):
Oh?
Speaker 8 (33:39):
Yeah, sure, yeah? Dropping the bucket.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
Checks in the mail.
Speaker 2 (33:41):
Yes, yeah, okay, very good, all right, thank you call
Moore off in Texas, Jack, Away, there you go.
Speaker 5 (33:48):
I like it.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
I like that you just want to mention the Clippers.
I love that because the Clippers matter. That you just
made my point, Texas Jack, like you randomly called up
and brought up the clippers.
Speaker 1 (33:57):
I didn't bring the clippers up. You brought the clippers
up because they move the needle. They move the needle.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
Absolutely, Rob says, Wemby is the real MVP over Mahler's
former Clipper prize SGA. Well no, actually, Sga was the
regular season MVP. He it wasn't even close. Wemby didn't
even finish second in the MVP voting. The Russian kid says,
how does the bamamn still kicking?
Speaker 1 (34:25):
How is he still kicking? In VS?
Speaker 2 (34:26):
One?
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Everyone's bringing this up. I listen, We've addressed that. Huh uh.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Ankatara says, wait, if the one legged bamba man ate
the alligator that ate his leg, does that mean that
he ate his own leg?
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I've got to know.
Speaker 5 (34:39):
No.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
They they were able to take the leg out of
the gator and then they consumed the gator.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Joe the Ghost Hunter, who was at the Great Ohio
Meet and Greet there met him could do. Joe the
Ghost Hunter says, Gator nuggets are amazing. They taste like chicken.
It's all about the chicken man. Well, and Guardina says
Anthony in Louisiana wishes that he and Lorena were kissing cousins.
He says, they're sincerely the Carolinas, the Virginia's, the Kentucky,
(35:07):
the Appalachia whatever. That's Manuel in Guardina in southern California.
Here what else we have, let's see u Phaige Nan Boso,
the district attorney, says the definition of best to courtad
Dictionary dot com. Well, Boso, I know this all over
your head because you're You're Boso, the district attorney. But
in the advertising world, okay, I mean it's a little
(35:28):
different here, right, So the advertising world, there have been
lawsuits that determined that if you say you have the
best turkey sandwich, you can say you have the world's
best turkey sandwich. That is, they were decided in court
years ago. You can go look it up. It's on
you know, you have to go to the dark web,
I guess, but it was determined years ago that the
term best means as good as all the rest.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
If you say that.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
My turkey sandwich is better than everyone else's turkey sandwich,
you could then be libel out of libels, or everyone'd
be sued. You have to then prove in court why
it is better. So if you listen in advertising, you
will hear the term best all the time. You will
not hear the term better because if you say better,
you have to back it up and you open yourself
(36:12):
up to litigations. Fergduck says, the clippers rule and the
haters rule absolutely correct. That's a good take by you.
It is the Ben Mahlor Show. As we are rolling, rolling,
and rolling through the overnight time. Now for the who
am I?
