Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number two of the original
Recipe podcast. We're up all night providing you with the pod. Here.
In our number two, Lebron James gave a forty three
word State of the Union address about his NBA status.
Can you unscramble what those forty three words mean? Also,

(00:24):
Christaps porzingis expected to miss several Celtic playoff games with injury.
Is that cause for concern? Paul George barked about the
incorrect reporting on Kawhi Leonard's injuries. Where are you at
on that one? We'll discuss all of that and much
much more right now here. It is our number two,

(00:46):
another King's decree. Well come in the beginning of another
hour of a Newbie night on the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air everywhere, shoulder to shoulder as
we meet in the middle Coast, stuck coast, Border, the

(01:06):
border and beyond on the mast and Brashley powerful microphones
of FSR emmating live from the Burden as we have
the burden of proof. We're broadcasting live from the tyrack
dot com studios. Tyrack dot com will help you get
there in unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard

(01:30):
protection and over ten thousand recommended in stars. Terry listening
in England thinks, wow, that's pretty pretty neat. He likes
that tyrack dot com the way tirebind should be, so
a wacky knight. In pro Bouncy Ball, the playoffs continue
as the Sixers able to take a gift from the

(01:51):
Knickerbockers Tyrese Maxey getting some help and he scores seven
points in the final thirty seconds and the Sixers stave
off at a nation thirty seconds. In these Sixers stave
off elimination, stayd alive, stand alive as they get the
win in overtime over the Knickerbockers and Milwaukee. The Doc

(02:13):
Squad also stays alive. The Milwaukee Bucks blew the doors
off the Pacers sent them back to the Stone Age
in a blowout win without their top two players. You
could say that's the most shocking result, most shocking result
in the entire playoffs, considering it's never happened before where
a team had been without their top two offensive players

(02:35):
and they ended up winning the game. So congratulations, I
guess it's one game. You still have to win two
more to advance. And how about the Cleveland Cadavers Cavaliers
and the Orlando Magic, and Cleveland up three games to
two in that game, our friends Strip Club John very

(02:56):
excited about that, as Donovan Mitchell had twenty eight points
and the Cavaliers held off the Magic. There were seventeen
lead changes in that game. They win by one point
at the end, but are lead this hour from a
man who is not in the playoffs anymore. I know
the newbies are excited about that. The odutopsy continuing on

(03:19):
the rotting carcass that was the Lakers eliminated by the
much superior Denver Nuggets. Lebron James continuing to stir the pot,
say what so he haven't heard the latest? We ranted
and raved like lunatics in a previous episode of the show,
when Lebron James refused to say he wanted to play
for the Lakers, that's the easiest white lie to tell

(03:41):
of all times. Oh I love playing here, I don't
want to play anwhere else. I lovet But he didn't
say it. He didn't say it. And one day after
if you didn't see this, we'll fill you in on
the details. Give you the cliff Notes version of the
Mallow Notes version. So one day after Lebron James refused
to answer a basic question about staying with the Lake,
Lebron went on social media to reveal that he has

(04:06):
made a decision to not make a decision say what
he said quote I've seen heard a lot of reports
about my future, he posted on the socials. I said
it last night and I'll say it again. Lebronopined, I
do not know yet, as I'm only thinking about spending
time with my family and friends. The ultimate family man,

(04:30):
Lebron James. All right, so let us discuss the question
Lebron James giving a I counted forty three word bulletin
about his NBA status. Can you unscramble? Can you unscramble
what this means? So I've got Oscar Meyer, consumer reports

(04:51):
and puffy stickers, and we will combine all of these
things together and we are going to make a nice
exotic vay kish. Where's Lebron going? He's he goes to
South of France, Camcoon, Hawaii. We don't know. We'll find out.
I'm sure we'll find out. It'll be all over the tabloids.
So first of all, peeking into the looking glass, and

(05:12):
if you ever get one of these shows. I do
recommend the looking glass so and we also have the
Rosetta stone, which we use sometimes the Mala of Rosetta stone.
But we did a minutes long investigation word by word
because we have no lives, and we have determined that
the latest statement by Lebron James is Lebron announcing he

(05:34):
is a Oscar meyer Wiener is what he's he's announcing here.
He's hot dogging it. He's like, hey, wait, I'm out
of the playoffs. I want everyone to keep talking about me.
Talk about me. You need to talk about me. What's
wrong with you? Yeah, So that's what that was. He's
letting his fingers on his phone or someone doing it
for him, but he's he's letting his fingers do the

(05:56):
talking and he's not saying anything. And that is a
statement devoid of any any real meaningful impact. He just said, well,
I want to spend time with my family. That the
time with the family thing always blows me away because
in the real world, not the cartoon world of professional sports,
most people that have a family have to keep working

(06:19):
because they have bills to pay. They have to, right,
But in sports it's well, I'm a family man. I
want to spend time with my family. Uh. And the
way sports are set up, it's like being a teacher.
You get a couple months off, but you don't make
a teacher salary. You're mak insane amounts of money. But
yet I gotta spend time with my family. Uh yeah, okay.

(06:41):
My favorite was Danny Ainge. Danny Ainge was coaching the
Phoenix Suns and he left that he got into a
disagree There's a player named Robert Or who threw a
towel at him this years ago, and Danny Ainge said, Okay,
I'm out. I want to spend time with my family.
He then got a job at Turner calling NBA games,

(07:03):
traveling to a different city every Thursday. I remember because
he sat next to me a couple of times at
what used to be called Staple Center as he was
getting ready for games like the night before. And then
he moved his family to Boston to take the job
with the Celtics, which he had for a long time.
But then he left Boston to go to Utah, so
he moved his family again. So okay, but the family

(07:24):
van come on. Lebron's like, hey, I'm an attention whoreor
look at me. I need attention. He's like porn kerosene
on the top of the barbecue to get that attention
and using the family as a human shield. What do
you do? I can't talk about this because of my family.
Wouldn't that be great? Like you have a question at work, well, sir,

(07:45):
I can't answer that, you know, because it's the family.
I gotta worry about the fan all right. Now. Secondly,
we head to the Commonwealth and after many had exhaled,
because Chris stops Porzingis sent out a positive, positive message
John social media turns out the unicorn. The unicorn has
come up limp. The unicorn has suppose he was dodging trouble.

(08:09):
Apparently not. The other shoe has dropped the Celtics. Chris
stops Porzingis is out for the game coming up here
on Wednesday night. He will not be in the lineup
Game five against the Heat. But wait, there's more. Perzingis
expected to miss a minimum of several games. Now, the
Celtics will very likely win the game on Wednesday night here,

(08:33):
So the win tonight and then they'll have a little
bit of a gap, so there'll be a couple extra
days off and then they will match up in the
next round, and he'll miss at least a few of
those games. I would be surprised if he plays at
all in the next round. Right now, Cleveland would be
the team the Celtics will play the winner of the

(08:54):
Cleveland Orlando series, and Cleveland is currently leading that series.
They need more win. But as far as Kristops perzingis
and he's expected to miss several more Celtic games, is
that cause for concern. So you've got the Micro and
the Macro, and the Micro you'd say, nah, come on,

(09:15):
the Celtics can get two guys off the street as
long as they have White, Tatum and Brown and win
the next round. So that's not really a big deal.
The Macro, this was expected. It's like you read consumer
reports and you buy yourself a twenty twenty four jeep Wrangler,

(09:36):
and then you read the report and it says, well,
it's got problems with the steering, there's some suspension issues,
there's electrical problems, the engines not working properly, the drive
systems not that great and all that. But it looks
good on the outside, like perzingis on the outside. You're like, wow,
it looks pretty good. But then that other stuff and

(09:59):
the other thing that we've learned from being a professional
gas bag all these years, and I'm sure you are
no different than me just watching sports, that when you
have a calf injury, it's often an appetizer. It is
an appetizer to the main course, and the main course
is a snap, crackle pop of the achilles that it's

(10:21):
a four shock, it leads to a bigger injury. So
the Celtics do not need the Unicorn at this point
in the next round and likely even in the Eastern
Conference finals, so they can put him in bubble wrap
and then watch him get hurt when he comes back
in the NBA finals, so that'll be a little less painful. Now,
speaking of injuries, we head now to Tinsol Town. The

(10:44):
Lakers out, but the Clippers are not out of the playoffs.
They're squared up. It's now a best of three playoff
matchup Clippers and mav Rex and they'll continue that later
on tonight here on this Wednesday. But Kawhi Leonard, if
you think he's going to play in that game, you
are a loser. Now, Kawhi Leonard will again be wearing

(11:07):
street clothes as the Clippers played the Dallas basketball team
in a pivotal game five and that coming up tonight.
So I bring this up because Paul George by George,
Paul George attempted to critique what he said was the
quote incorrect media narrative suggesting that Kawhi Leonard does not

(11:30):
does not want to take the floor for the people's team,
and is sitting out for reasons beyond just the injury.
There's other stuff going on. So Paul George with his
capon like a knight and shining armor, riding his chariot
in so he said podcast p that Kawhi Leonard was

(11:51):
literally shut down because I guess the higher ups didn't
think that he was himself and didn't want to further
harm him by playing games that he was not one
hundred percent close. Quote. So Paul George barking into a
microphone on his Fledgling podcast that it is incorrect the

(12:13):
narrative around Kawhi Leonard, the reporting on Kawhi Leonard's injuries,
it's incorrect. So where are you at on this one?
Where are you at on this one? So despite the
clear bromance between Pg. Thirteen and Kawhi Leonard, this doesn't
make any sense, cause it it actually if you go

(12:34):
word by word here in parts the words of Paul George,
it actually makes Kawhi Leonard look worse that he's such
a softy. The ownership knows he can't play unless he's
one hundred percent. He's ineffective that he just can't get
an in what business can you get get a job
and be like, well, unless you're a no, one's one

(12:54):
hundred percent, even if you have an office job. I've
had larryn jitis and I've had to come in here
and do the show, so it was in one hundred percent.
It's like, come on, it's embarrassing. This whole Kawhi Leonard
thing with the Clippers has been embarrassing, and I like
the Clippers. It's a joke. At this point, I just stop.
And he just signed an extension so he can play

(13:17):
sixty games during the regular season and then get injured
and miss playoff games. It's it's like stop. And then Pg.
Thirteen is claiming that higher ups it has to be
Steve Balmer. You think anyone other than Bamber's making that decision.
So he's saying the owner's meddling. So PG. Thirteen's futsing around,
saying the owner's screwing up, and he's messing around. I

(13:38):
find the whole thing hard to stomach. I do. I
find the whole thing hard to stomach. And Paul George, oh,
he doesn't win on a positive note because I am
Benny bright Side. Paul George wins one of those puffy
stickers from the Ministry of Misinformation on Kawhi Leonard period stop.

Speaker 7 (20:08):
I do miss the John Ramos show, but I do
think Lorena is doing a great job. Who hit the show?

Speaker 1 (20:16):
Love John Ramos radio legend. John no longer radio legend though,
John he left the business. He could not handle the
radio business anymore. So he he went, uh, what's the
what's the way we went proper? He went to the mains. Legit, legit, Yeah, legit.
He's working for the government. Now, No, he was working well,
I guess in a way he works at a school
education government higher education, government educating, not a private school. No, hey, Jeff,

(20:40):
if you want, you can go to you can all right.
I guess he's wait. I guess he doesn't want he's gone.
But he could go to John's high school. Was he
a high school or something? I don't know. He can
go to the hangout with him at the school and
John will do the John Ramo Show and be'd be great. Yeah,
just absolutely one. Let's go to Augie on a Newbie
night eight seven seven on Fox and I knew me night.

(21:01):
Let's say hello to Augie. Who's in the Bay Area?
What's going on? Ogie?

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Hello?

Speaker 8 (21:06):
Thank you?

Speaker 4 (21:07):
Uh.

Speaker 8 (21:07):
I was wondering this report about Mark Jackson, the LA
coach was accurate. He said that he wished that the
NBA commissioner. I forgot the guy. Still, he wish they
would just cancel the rest of that series with the
Nuggets and the Lakers.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah, I didn't. I saw him claim that the reason
he's not working for the NBA anymore as a broadcaster
is because he criticized the referees and that's I didn't
see anything other than that. Did I miss that?

Speaker 8 (21:45):
I don't know if it was the accurate report, Probably not.

Speaker 1 (21:48):
I mean, I don't know, I just google it.

Speaker 7 (21:50):
No.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
I saw him the other a couple of days ago.
He said that the reason he's no longer broadcasting is
because because he was critical of the referees, which is
all also the same thing that they said about Jeff
van Gundy, that the reason Van Gundy got whacked as
a broadcaster because he was he said mean things about
the officials, which it's possible. All it takes is one

(22:12):
douchebag at the NBA that they thinks you're not supposed
to do that.

Speaker 8 (22:16):
So yeah, I don't like the refs though, but that's.

Speaker 7 (22:18):
My I don't know.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
I mean a lot of a lot of the refs too.
You don't even know who they are. At least before
when you hated the refs, you knew who they were.
You could hate him because you recognized them. Like Scott Foster.
I think he was in Milwaukee calling the Pacers Bucks game,
and I know who he is, but I don't know
most of these other officials. I have no idea who
they are anyway, right, thank you. There's a great augie.

(22:42):
It's a newbie Knight. I don't know what he was
referencing with Mark Jackson. I don't, I don't. I didn't
see anything. Maybe I missed it, did not come on
my my sonar or he just found something that was
totally made up me may oral mayhem, the mayor of
Los a eddie. Do you know who the mayor of
Los Angeles is? Are you aware?

Speaker 6 (23:03):
Uhs African American lady.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
As did not raised I raised my hand. I did
not say, but you were not called raised your hand?
Did not call on you? I was gonna get I
didn't know it was timed. I didn't know there was
a time living my god, Loreen, never do that again.

(23:28):
How dare you? Anyway? So the Karen Bass, Yeah, amazing
and he really remember that? Who is the you're old daddy?
Who was the outfielder for the Astros named Bass? Kevin Bass? Yeah,
he had like a nineteen eighties porn stash porn mustache
on his baseball card. I remember that anyway. Again, Karen Bass,

(23:50):
no relation as far as we know. The mayor of
Los Angeles. She she had to delete a social well,
she probably had nothing She doesn't look like someone that's
on social media to me. But maybe she's got like
a Facebook page to a noise like her nieces or
nephews or something like that, her kids. But anyway, Karen Bass,
she sent out a comment after the Lakers were eliminated
and people were ripping her so much the Mayor's office

(24:13):
that she had to delete it. The mayor of Los Angeles.
Here's what she wrote, Eddie or somebody that worked underneath
her tough season, referring to the Lakers, but at least
we won the in season tournament. Proud of our team.

(24:34):
So people were mocking the mayor about how stupid you could,
Chris the Mayor's allowing you know, criminals to run free
all over LA and all everybody anyway, So she actually
deleted it and then she posted her somebody for her posted.
She removed it to the comment on social media and said,
in a more general statement, you left it all on

(24:56):
the floor. Thank you, ah, you won the in season tournament,
proud of our team. You just got a gentleman's sweep
at the hands of the Denver Nuggets man a life
heyway right? Is the Ben Mallor Show on a Newbie Night.
All right for Newbye Night, we'll get back to the newbies. Also,

(25:21):
if that was not enough, we have go buy a ticket,
Go buy a ticket and a fun fact. But let's
get over to Eddie and I want to confirmation. Terry
in England confirmed I did say your name and you
and Coop said I did not say your name. You lied,
you get gaslighted me? Bad job by you.

Speaker 6 (25:40):
Well I didn't If I did lie, I wasn't knowingly lying.
I didn't think you said it.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Tell it to the judge, Eddie. Yeah, I'm on the pod.
It's on the podcast. I'm not going to go back
and listen to that. It's too much work. Wow.

Speaker 6 (25:50):
Let's check in on the NBA playoffs, where we had
a couple of teams avoid elimination, one of them the
seventy six ers. They go into New York knock off
the Knicks one twelve one six and overtime Tyrese Maxi
leading the way, hit a deep three pointer to help
send the game into ot and then finished with the
career playoff HIH forty six points. Jalen Brunson did have
forty in a losing effit for New York, but Philadelphia
avoids elimination. New York still leads a series three games

(26:13):
to two, but we will have a game six. And
the Bucks without stars Giannis Duntakopo and Damian Lillard beat
the Pacers one fifteen to ninety two. Bobby Porters and
Chris Middleton each had twenty nine points to lead the way.
Milwaukee also avoiding elimination. Indiana still leads a series three two,
but there will be a game six. Cavaliers edge the
Magic one oh four to one oh three in a
tight game. Donovan Mitchell twenty eight points Darius Garland twenty

(26:36):
three points to lead Cleveland. Orlando's Palo Bancaro did lead
all scores with thirty nine points.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Get out, you get a pool, Rasma, Biden Ban Carrol.
You gotta sell the name it it's a good name.
It is a good name. I like you gotta sell it.
You just kind of just read it quick. It's me
job by you.

Speaker 6 (26:51):
I'm okay with the way I said a little spice
on it. I don't really need to Hio. Cleveland takes
a three to two lead in the series. NHL Playoffs,
he had the Hurricanes eliminating the Islanders with a six
to three win. Carolina takes that series four games to one.
They're on the round number two, where they will take
on the number one seed in the East. The New
York Rangers. Avalanche beat the Jets in Winnipeg, also by
a score of six to three. Colorado takes that series

(27:12):
four games to one as well. They now await the
winner of the Dallas Las Vegas series in Round number two.
Mayple liefs stay alive. They beat the Bruins in Boston
two to one in overtime. Matthew ny Is with the
overtime game winner, and Toronto wins without the league's leading goalscorer,
Austin Matthews. He was out of this game because of
an illness. Toronto avoids elimination, but Boston still has the
three to two edge in the series, but there will

(27:33):
be a game six in Toronto, and the Predators avoid elimination.
They beat the Canucks in Vancouver two to one. Nashville
still alive. Vancouver still leads a series three to two,
but we will have a game six back in Nashville.
So baseball games have note. You had the Twins extending
their winning streak to nine in a row of the
six to five win over the White Sox.

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Sausage Jetti, it's the power of.

Speaker 6 (27:52):
The summer sausage.

Speaker 1 (27:54):
Yeah, I'm gonna go buy a summer sausage Atti and
the greatest shows we've ever had.

Speaker 6 (27:57):
They're quite delicious. I enjoy them with like a cracker
and cheese or something like that. The Orioles beat the
Yankees four to two. Baltimore one game up now on
New York for the top spot in the at least,
also tied with Cleveland for the best record in the
American League. Mariners beat the Braves three two in a
battle of division leaders. He had the Royals beating the
Blue Jays four to one. Our guy Tim informs me
at that was Kansas City seventeenth win in the month

(28:18):
of April, which is a franchise record. Thank you, Tim
for all your notes. Diamondbacks beat the Dodgers four to
three and ten innings walk off two run home from
Christian Walker.

Speaker 2 (28:25):
Tim.

Speaker 1 (28:26):
Tim Darby is timy man. It comes up with all
the numbers.

Speaker 6 (28:30):
We appreciate that two hour b delay there in Arizona,
which we talked about earlier. Astros beat the Guardians ten
to nine in ten innings. Brewers over the Rays eight
to two. There was a little brewjaha on that one.
That was fun to watch. Mets over the Cubs four
to two, and the Phillies down the Angels seven and five.
Speaking of the Angels, they will not have the current
home run leader in the major leagues for a little while.

(28:50):
Mike Trout torn meniscus in his knee out four to six.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Croud smells from the knee up, Eddie, that's where it's smells,
or the knee down. I don't know. Well, the knee.
There's more body above the knee. I imagine it would be.
That's true. He down would not be that much of
a smell. I love sausage.

Speaker 6 (29:05):
By the way, Thank you have a very young Ben
Mallor that said that. Boy, can we hear that again?

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Listen now, young voice sounds I love sausage. Oh my god, Wow,
you're just a younge.

Speaker 8 (29:15):
You do sound young.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
Years fifty years, young child, very embarrassingly. One more time, Lore,
we have a lot of sausage drops. By the way,
I love sausage. But I don't know if you I
laughed over at larn it one more time. We don't
need to play it again. Now, Lorena, you've worked here
for a short time. You should know you've worked here
a short time, but you should know that there were

(29:38):
big on the sausage. We're big on the sausage here
at Fox Sports Radio. Hey, are you tired of feeling
alone in your job? Starts? With just one connection, you
can find endless job opportunities. That connection is Express Employment
Professionals and there are no fees for job seekers. Was
at expresspros dot com to find the location nearest to you.
That's expresspros dot com. Fun fact, we got a fun fact.

(29:59):
We got a fun maler fun fact. Someone named Christian Walker.
I'm told that's a baseball player for the Arizona team
hit a walk off home run. He had a multi
home run game and a walk off home run. And
here is the full big board of Arizona Diamondback players
to have two home runs or more and a walk

(30:19):
off home run in franchise history. Christian Walker the last
one to do it before him David Peralta back in
twenty eighteen, Goldie Paul Goldschmidt back in twenty thirteen. Chris
Young did it a couple of times. Here's the name
I love rubiol dorazzom power. See now you're upset, Eddie,

(30:43):
see because you didn't say Banzero. You didn't say his name, right,
it's Urubio Dorazzo, Dorazo. He did it. Reggie Sanders and
Damian Miller, the generically named Damian Miller, way back twenty
four years ago, in the year two thousand. That is
the fun fact of the hour. So it's exciting on

(31:06):
a newbie night. And we will have Mallard of the
third degree coming up in a few Let's say hello
to David, who's in New York on a newbie night.

Speaker 7 (31:13):
Hello, David, Hey Annie, how are you?

Speaker 1 (31:17):
If I was any better, David, If I was any better,
I'd be a Yankee, but not a New York Yankee
because the Orioles are better than they are.

Speaker 7 (31:25):
Okay, this.

Speaker 9 (31:28):
Back when John Starling used to be doing the broadcast. Yeah,
Michael ka is like the Susan Wallman of his day.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
Yeah, hold on, can you pick? Can you pick? Can
you pick the phone out? I want to hear every
every little nugget here. David picked that phone up? David
m Did he go away? Oh no? Did he hang
up on himself by picking up the phone? Yeah, he's
gone operator error. I didn't hit anything yet. Yeah, that

(32:03):
was that was all him. But I hopefully you'll call back.
He was going to tell a nice story about John
Sterling and Michael Kay. The Yankee broadcasters were not John
Sterling anymore. David's called back, David, do not hang up again, David.
How dare you got.

Speaker 7 (32:20):
That sauted fingers from those cheese steaks?

Speaker 8 (32:23):
Anyway?

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Yes?

Speaker 9 (32:25):
So, so John Sterling would disappear, right and they would
let Michael Kay do the collar though.

Speaker 1 (32:34):
Pitch by pitch, yeah, play by play.

Speaker 9 (32:37):
Who When John Sterling would come back, he would be
drunk as a punch. I swear to god, it was
like that was the year they won the one hundred
and sixteen games, because I remember, because I was dealing
drugs off here, and I'll.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Stay your find memories. You were dealing drugs.

Speaker 7 (33:00):
I got a record to prove it. Anyway. I listen
to the games on the radio, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, yeah, I hear it all.

Speaker 9 (33:09):
The fifteen games on the radio. Now, that new guy
that they got replacing John Stirling, Yeah.

Speaker 7 (33:17):
He does Susan talk all the time. I'm let Susan talk.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
That's Georgie's girl. You gotta let Susan talk. That's a
bad job. I mean, I there was, there was, there
was David, there was a time. That's for John what.

Speaker 7 (33:37):
Anyway? Anyway? Yeah, yeah, I'm in the local two o three.
I work on Cooper's Town, the Hall of Fame.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
Bro Oh, yeah, I got to get there sometimes. I've
never been to the Hall of Fame. I gotta go.

Speaker 9 (33:50):
When I gotta go down to the bathroom. I walked
right by the Jackie Robinson John Smoke exhibit.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
Oh all right, look at that. So there's you can
tell you can take a pee right near the John Smoltz.

Speaker 7 (34:04):
In the back of fucking.

Speaker 1 (34:08):
What are we at, Lorena.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
I knew we were.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
Gonna lose them as soon as you brought it. Yeah, well,
he got so excited talking about taking a year, you know,
going to the bathroom with John, with John Smoltzy. I
had to flush that one.

Speaker 9 (34:21):
Ben.

Speaker 1 (34:21):
Yeah, well, I like his passion though he's got fat
fingers each cheese steak. The guy works at Cooper's Town.
That's kind of cool. And he's a newbie, so I
like all that stuff. Hey, And it's if it was
up to me, we'd all curse, but we're not bosses.
Get upset when we do that. Hey, go buy a ticket.
You know, Greg Norman is probably not Lorena does it.
That's a golfer and one of the big names in

(34:42):
golf back in his day. He's also he's also one
of the faces of the Live Golf operation, like the
founder of Live Golf. And he will not not be
part of the Open we call it the British Open.
Denied an invite to the British Open, and they essentially
told him to go check the secondary market if he

(35:05):
wants to buy a ticket to that event. They're that
bitter and broken. He's not on the list for the
Open Championship. The Australian Golfer told not to attend the
one hundred and fiftieth Open as you're not in, you're done.

(35:25):
That's it. Because of his job with Live back. He
opened back in twenty twenty two. I think that started
that whole thing. So he's in exile, but you know
he's rich. He's got a lot of that Saudi oil money,
so I think he's okay. Finance. Yeah, he make a deal, right,
you know, if you do business with some tyrants of

(35:48):
oil You'll make a lot of money and other people
will not be as fond of you. That's how that works.
Time now, I think we all know that. Time now
for the Insta trivia of Mallard of the Third Degree.

history to score fifty or more points in a playoff
game without having an All Star selection on their resume. Again, Blank,

Speaker 6 (37:52):

year at a hall pass.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Once a year he could go to Poundtown somewhere else.
Our late night drug tester came up with that Dynamo

Curry from Justin in Cincinnati, The Killer Bees Wrestling Legends
from Donkey's Sausage Spunky from Rockos Modern Life from Yaphemi

(38:19):

b thing there.

Speaker 1 (38:59):

said he would cry his eyes out if it was
the correct answer. Eddy, none other than Jamal Murray. We go, here,
we go, we go, smell here we go to the

(39:19):
third degree.

Speaker 2 (39:22):
This is one big f gets grilled.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
The coup Dow.

Speaker 4 (39:26):
Looted the Steelers twenty twenty four draft is being so
highly regarded that many experts view it is one of
the best in the league. One analyst even says that
Pittsburgh drafted the offensive and defensive rookies of the year. Ben,
did the Steelers knock it out of the park?

Speaker 1 (39:39):
Uh? No, Listen, they got guys that the consensus said
they did well. But the consensus is off and wrong.
The consensus is off and wrong. You look at the depth, Shart,
it's projected that a couple of these guys will be
in the starting lineup. But no, the greatest draft of
all time was the Steelers back in that. I think
they drafted two Hall of famers, three Hall of famers

(40:00):
at one job. But yeah, that's way too premature, way
too premature to say that about this draft.

Speaker 4 (40:05):
Next, on a recent episode of Draymond Green's podcast, Draymond
actually gave props to one of his biggest enemies, Rudy Gobert.
Green said that Gobert is actually not trash anymore and
that he's and that he's quote actually impacting winning.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
Ben. Do you agree, Well, first of all, I don't agree. Secondly,
I don't think Draymond Green agrees because if I saw
the quote right, didn't he also say, well, because he's
around better players, so He's like he couched it. It's
it's like a backhanded cop. And he was like, well, yeah,
he's good, but he's really because he's got better players
around it.

Speaker 4 (40:37):
Next, when asked about the age of rookie quarterback Bo Nicks,
Broncos GM George Payton said that Knicks will be more
game ready than if they had taken a twenty one
year old Ben. Do you think this revealed the Broncos
planned to start Nicks, Well, he's.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Played more games in recently than Joe Burrow has in
the NFL. But listen, bow Knicks, nobody knows. He could
be fine, Like, you don't know what you don't know,
But I don't think the age thing factors into that
much at all. How did we die? You pass us? Aditionally?
