this hour, We're gonna have ask Ben. What is ask Ben?

(02:59):
I don't know what ask Ben is. Ask Ben is questions.
We don't do sporty. We typically don't do sporty. You're
gonna ask questions for Ben. And friends. Are my friends
Lorraina and Coop here so you can ask all of
us questions on Ask Ben. That'll be coming up a
little bit later this hour. Also have the Malar Riddle
of the Day that'll be coming up as well. So

(03:20):
it is a jam packed hour of talk radio. You'll
decide whether it's good or not. But our lead this
hour is from Viva Las Vegas. We're Scott Borris, the
super Agent to the Stars. He held court at the Cosmo.
He was playing on the strip there in Vegas at
the Cosmo, filling up the content machine. He covered all

(03:40):
the bases, all the bases. So let's start out in Motown.
Scott Morrise, the super agent representing Tigers Ace and Cy
Young winner yet again, Tariq Schooble said, the fans of Michigan,
the fans of Motown are clamoring, clamoring for the team

(04:03):
to construct a roster fortress around the two time American
League Cy Young winner, punning on the pitcher's name as
the Terrek Bearrick, saying that hey, they want the Trek Berick.
It's good jumping off point. So let's discuss the question
for the class. Scott Borris saying that the Detroit Tiger

(04:26):
fan base wants the Terrek Brick built around Trek scoople,
How does that hit you? So I've got the amazing
Cresken doctor seuss an oil pipeline, and we will combine
all of these things together and we are going to
take baby steps, is what we're going to take. I

(04:50):
don't hear the bells. I'm so used to hearing the bell.
When I don't hear the bell, I think, oh my,
something might have happened. But all right, my first thought here,
So Scott boor Us, the agent, this is a must listen,
must watch, situation at the GM meetings because he rolls
in there the Shakespeare of Schlock, Scott Morris rolling into

(05:12):
the GM meetings with yet another batch of pre cooked
dad jokes straight out of the Live Life, Laugh and Love,
you know aisle there at Hobby Lobby, just live, laugh
and love and all that stuff. This is Scott Boris's
super Bowl. It is, and in another life. In my
younger days, I knew Scott a little bit casually. Casually

(05:35):
Scott used to listen. I did the stuff with the
Dodgers years ago, and I actually famously went up to
Scott one time. I said, hey, Scott, I'm a young,
upstart radio guy. I'd really love to have you as
my agent. And Scott said, Ben, I know who you are.
I think you're great. I don't do that. I only
do baseball. I don't do radio. Now he knew before
not to do radio, but he said he did. He
said he told me he was approached by football players

(05:56):
and basketball players. He said, no, I was a minor
league baseball player. I know baseball. That's what I know.
I'm gonna stick to what I know. I'm not interested
in that. That's what I'm interested Sorry, but for Boris,
this is his super Bowl. I am convinced that Scott
spends hours and hours at his Newport Beach compound, right
near where Kobe used to live, and he's looking at

(06:16):
the mirror and Scott is just workshopping these puns like
he's prepping for open mic night at the Holiday Inn
in Des Moines. He's corny, he's hoky, he's mushy, he's
over the top. And the worst part is he loves it.
And he I'm telling you, people around Scott Boris and

(06:37):
he's got a posse of people that fall him around.
They must be saying, oh my god, Scott, you are
so good, you are so funny. You killed it, You
absolutely kill it. So Boris thinks he's crushing every one
liner and I'm gonna date myself with this reverence. But
like a modern day Don Rickles, this famous comedian from
years ago, he's like the Don Rickles of baseball agents.

(06:59):
Underneath the Scott Boris the Vaudeville act, leverage, leverage, capitol,
pure uncut Scott Boris leverage. And what he did here
on the Tiger Talk is he took a page out
of the Amazing Creskins book of magic, and he got

(07:20):
a pen with disappearing ink. It's like a nice little
ace Scott you got. There would be a shame, would
be a shame if he left for the Dodgers the Yankees.
What Boris is really saying is Tarret Scoogle ain't signing
squat in Detroit unless Mike Ilich rises up like the

(07:46):
Phoenix and crosses the Pearly Gates from the Great Beyond
with a blank check. Pizza pizza. Boris does not bargain shop.
We all know that he does not believe in bargain shopping.
He's never used a coupon. He doesn't clip coupons. Why
would he doesn't use him There's no up to fifty
percent off Hometown discount or Doorbuster as special. There's no sale,

(08:10):
just not No. He's a Rolex guy. He's a Rodeo
drive Madison Avenue guy. That's who he is. You want Schooble,
you pay Schooble full market value, and the whole fans
want Terrek. Terrek's Barrick, that whole thing built around him.
Spare me all right, and we're on all over Michigan.

(08:32):
I'll give out the number he in a minute but
I don't know of anyone listening. We're on in Detroit
and all the big towns in Michigan. We've got affiliates.
Nobody I know who lives in the state of Michigan
is marching down Woodward Avenue in Detroit demanding a medieval
fortress be built right next to Ford Field and the
Tigers Stadium there for Trek School. And Boris is pretending,

(08:54):
he's pretending he's just a humble listener at the GM meetings,
and me thinks not so much. Me thinks so much. Now,
keeping the theme of the hour, but we moved to
the Mets. Now on page two, agent Scott Boris addressing
Mets star Pete Alonzo in free agency. Now I mentioned
that Scott Boris is cornball, he's hoky, he's over the top.
He's doing all this, he's doing dad jokes. Well, he

(09:16):
really outdid himself. He was asked about Pete Alonzo, who
has opted out, is a free agent again going back
to market after a big year with the Mets, and
listen to Scott Boris waks poetic about Pete Alonzo.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
There's no doubt that peace pursuers are prime to pay
the power Piper. You know, Pete picked the perfect period
to play pre eminently at a really a primary position,
a playoff, Perched, Plethora will pounced to participate in.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
The polar punch. Okay, that is not AI. That's really
that's that's not AI. Question. What is the takeaway from
the Scott Boris decree about the Polar Bear or, as
he said, the power Piper, Pete Alonzo and his future. Well, congratulations,

(10:18):
Scott Boris, you have officially entered the Doctor Seuss on
Red Bull era of your career. That was a big
Doctor Seuss fan back in the day. So what would
Doctor Seuss be like? Heavily caffeinated, maybe with some other
kind of pharmaceuticals. Well, here you go. He kind of
sounds like the Riddler. I give him credit. He had
that memorized. There was no script in front of him,
there was no teleprompter. Sounded like the Riddler trying to

(10:40):
win a pop up poetry contest in an open mic
thing somewhere. Roses are red, violets are blue, and I
can do poetry better than you. Power Piper, perfect period, playoff, Parched, Plethora,
get the pop filter, Scott Boris, the alliteration station we are.

(11:01):
You're a literation station. It could be a good promo,
right the Ben Maler Show. You're a literation station. The
tone at the time of the tone will be the
time of the tone will be. So anyway, listen, that
is banana ball. That is bananabal That's what that is.
Scott Boris wants sake, canary yellow tuxedo, a top hat,

(11:22):
and tickets to the Savannah Bananas World Tour. That is
pure performance art. That is performance art. Peter Piper picked
the back of playoff power hitters, and Scott Boris is
picking the pockets of desperate, pathetic owners. And here's the
moral of the poem. Peter Alonzo is gone bye bye,

(11:44):
bye bye bye. He is gone gone, gone, gone, gone, gone,
gone gone. Unless the Mets pay them a ton of money,
like overpay, that's it. No discount, obviously, you'll do that.
That's it. That's the takeaway. It's not so subtle. Boris
speaks in riddles like the Riddler. He's the Riddler, but

(12:06):
he acts like a guy holding a neon sign that
says Bidder's wanted, bring checkbook, bring crypto. And he's telling
the Mets through the media, either give us the moon
or the polar bear migrates developing hot dot dot dot.

(12:28):
Now typically newsflash, polar bears don't do well in warm weather.
But Boris doesn't care about that. If the money, let's
say the money's in the Sahara Desert, well Pete will
go to Riod tomorrow. Tomorrow tomorrow is another day, and
he'll sign up for that. And said, well, we got

(12:50):
a nice polar bear here at the zoo and Riod
there you go. So Scott Boris did not just raise
the price. You didn't just raise the price. He backed
Steve Cohen the mets ore into the polar bear cage.
You're in the cage, mister Collin, You're in the polar
bear cage. Oh my god. And Boris doesn't care you're
in the cage. Threw away the key and handed alonzo

(13:11):
a bozuka, a bozuka of money, a money bozuka. How
great is that?

Speaker 3 (13:17):
All?

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Right? Final thought on the gambling front. On the gambling front, now,
Scott Boris addressed prop betting. As you might know, there
are a couple of Cleveland Guardian pitchers who are facing
most likely the rest of their lives in jail if
they get the full full sentence, which is unlikely. But

(13:38):
they're gonna do some hard time at the Gray Bar
all inclusive resort. So the question Scott boris, now he
said he wants all of this eliminated. We want, he said,
we want the player's integrity never to be questioned. He
says that at the GM he did not use a
bunch of riddles when he said that funny enough. So
the question Scott boris saying that Base needs to ban

(14:00):
all prop bets. Do you agree or disagree? So this
is a point in demarcation for a lot of us.
Obviously I disagree. I strongly disagree with this. The easy
position is say, well, there have been some scandals here,
so let's just get rid of all prop bets, right,
just get it. It's like if you lived in Peoria

(14:22):
and you went to a restaurant in Peoria and you said, okay,
I had a meal there and it wasn't very good.
So we should outlaw the restaurant in Peoria and all
restaurants in Peori because I had one chef that undercooked
the chicken and I got some sickness and I don't
want that, and so we should just get rid of it.
Every era has bad actors, Every business has bad actors.

(14:46):
The black Socks were fixing games when gambling was illegal.
Prohibiting props now would just push everything back into the shadows,
back into the back alleys, the neighborhood bookie, the mob.
The mob wants you to ban They want you to
ban the prop bets because they would just do the
business and you can't track it, and they make all

(15:10):
the money. Then you've got a real mess. And let's
not be idiots here. Props are the golden ghosts. That's
the other thing which is very odd for Scott boris
a man that's all about the money, all about the benjamins.
If you think about where the money is now in
professional sports, you cannot watch more than two minutes of
a game without some kind of commercial for gambling. It

(15:35):
is the oil pipeline straight into the wallet of baseball
and the other sports as well. And so whatever your
favorite gambling company is, we love DraftKings here. They're essentially
sponsors of half the league now, if not the entire league.
And if you yank the prop bets off the board,
and you certainly do it, I think the government's going

(15:56):
to try to get rid of these things and ban
the prop bets. The leagues are putting limits on them,
trying to put limits on them. If you take prop
bets off the board, you're cutting off the air supply
in many ways, right because you think owners are giving
up that revenue stream so Scott Boris can sleep better
at night. No, And if you think that, I guess

(16:19):
I will become the next Pope Pope Benny. For many props,
For many props that are out there, they're harmless. People
aren't messing around with them, and it does happen every
once in a while, somebody futses around with them. And
for a lot of the boys out there, props are
the thing that keeps you engaged here. You get to

(16:40):
a certain point, you've seen so many games over the years,
ago burned out on that. I still like sports, but
I don't know about it. You're kind of casual. You
work your ass off, you put your not forty hours,
you're working sixty hours a week, and you're like, all right,
I gotta watch a game, but I want to have
a little action in it will skin in the game,
And it's the sixth inning of a White Sox A's
game and all, I guess we're both teams with thirty

(17:01):
games out of first place, and the only way to
really enjoy that is to put a little prop bet down,
and you remove them, and baseball goes right back to
being the two hours and forty five minutes or three
hours and thirty minutes Ken Burns documentary, which for many
not that great, and so Burrs scut wars if he's
being truthful here, he wants to turn back the clock.

(17:22):
But you're not putting the toothpaste back in the tube.
It's not gonna be back in the two perfectly. If
you man props and money, money many if you ban that,
the money, the fans, the engagement, all of that goes down.
All of that goes down, And so it's essentially throwing
the baby out with the sportsbook. If you will. Here,
integrity can be protected without detonating the revenue stream. And

(17:48):
again I say that knowing that there are have already
been some hearings on Capitol Hill, and there will guarantee
be more scandals. There'll be more names that the Feds
get and for gambling, and then we'll see what happens
after that, and the people that govern the laws will
say okay, this has not much to do about nothing,
and we are not happy about this, and we need

(18:10):
to put the kebash on this and then it'll go
back to being the way it was in terms of
the mob just controlling the market because you can do
everything online and people will do it and there will
be no uproar. You won't know when the scandals are
happening because it'll be done in the shutdows the Game
of Shadows. It is the Ben Mahlor Show, not the

(18:34):
Game of Shadows. If you would like to be part,
you can join us right now. We have Asked Ben

And we were there and man, was that awesome just
to smell the sugar and they get the fresh doughnuts
they gave us. Oh god, that was good. Milkman Mike

Speaker 6 (25:39):
I'm gonna go with the Beer Olympics.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Beer beer beer beer beer beer beer beer beer beer. No,
the correct answer would be the Housekeeping Olympics. Yes, the
house Keeping Olympics.

Speaker 7 (25:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Among the competitions, you had the bed making race, the
mop relay, vacuuming competitions. Now I did not see a
dishwashing competition because among the housekeeping, I am the dishwasher.
Benny the dishwasher is my nickname in the Malor Mansion.
I'm an epic dishwasher. I feel worthy of at least

(26:23):
a silver medal. I'm thinking bron I'm thinking. I'm thinking
the gold, not bronze silver. At the very least. When
it comes to washing dishes, have a dishwasher, I do,
but I pre washed the dishes. So the dishwasher is
the final stage. The dishwasher is not the main event.

Speaker 6 (26:42):
The main event like the sanitizing exactly.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
And there's a there's a myth that people have that
you can just put dirty plates in the dishwasher and
it's like a magic thing and it's just gonna no, no,
no no. And then when I first got with the
woman who's now my wife, and we were living together,
and she would put him exactly and she would put
plates and covered in food, right, no and so. And see,

(27:08):
originally I was not the dishwasher. And then I looked
at the bottom of the dishwasher and there were little
pieces of macaroni.

Speaker 6 (27:15):
Are you telling me you became the dishwasher because you
couldn't handle I could.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
Not handle the pieces of macaroni, the little peas, the
little pieces of meat the bottom of the of the dishwasher.
I thought it was disgusting. And so I said, no,
no more, I'm going to be I'm going to take
this job. And I've had the job for over a decade.
I've had that job as the dishwasher. I will challenge
any man, woman or child. My ability to wash dishes.

Speaker 6 (27:43):
Put me in.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
I want to be in the housekeeping Olympics if they
have dishwashing A'm in. Now, what is your strength, Lorena
when it comes to housekeeping?

Speaker 6 (27:52):
Well, you see, Ben, I actually used to be a housekeeper.
You were really not.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Only was I a live in nanny for a family,
also worked at the sleep in in Roseberg.

Speaker 6 (28:03):
And yeah, so it was super fun.

Speaker 5 (28:05):
My favorite thing to do though.

Speaker 6 (28:06):
Was making beds? Okay, the corners you so fun?

Speaker 1 (28:12):
Okay, that's a competition. That's part of the competition making
bed making nice and tight and like flat and crisp. Yeah, okay,
And so you you learn the really fun when you.

Speaker 7 (28:23):
Put the cover over and you like fling it up
in the air and it falls perfectly on each side
of the bed, nice and flat.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
And mission accomplished there, and then it.

Speaker 6 (28:32):
Like flattens down.

Speaker 5 (28:33):
Oh, it's so satisfying.

Speaker 1 (28:35):
Well, Vegas is the home of housekeeping. I say we
put a team together because we could. We could enter
as a bit for the show next year. They have
it every year. I be the dishwasher, You be the
bed maker. Coop you want to be the mop guy,
vacuuming guy? What do you want to be?

Speaker 6 (28:51):
There is no dishwashing event.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
We're gonna We're gonna have him at it. I could
do the I'll do the vacuum. I'm good at vacuum. Also,
how about that be the mop guy. I'll be the
vacuum guy. How about that? When I was a kid,
my mom made me do chores around the house as
a kid, and I was the vacuum guy.

Speaker 4 (29:08):
I was I was Hoover.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Benny is what I was when I was a kid.
So I could do the vacuum. I'd rather do the
dish washing. But I could do that all right, So
we were good. Anything else. Let's contact I have a website.
Let's contact them and say we want to be in

(34:29):
You've been out there futsing around. Oh my gosh.

Speaker 8 (34:33):
In two thousand and nine, I really moved out here.
I mean I've been out here before then, but in
two thousand and nine, I moved out here because the
real estate and market caved in on me.

Speaker 1 (34:46):
And oh yeah, that happened to me too. I bought
a place in the I bought a house just before
the market crashed at the end of eight. Yeah. I
remember that, yeah.

Speaker 8 (35:00):
Much, the beginning of Oh wait, this is when the
real estate American really gave that up me. But you
know the reason why I moved out here is because
I'm so we used to living in that. Thank you

Speaker 1 (36:51):
Here. Hi, Lady Sideburns, love your Sideburns.

Speaker 7 (36:54):
Says, don't hide from it. What voice do you use
when talking to babies? Yes, evil demonstr right.

Speaker 5 (37:02):
I did no baby, Lorena, Oh my gosh, no, I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
Come on, what do you use your normal? Boys? Everyone
talks different to the little kids.

Speaker 5 (37:15):
Your little baby, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (37:18):
Oh yeah, that's that's that's that'll that'll work. Yeah, all right,
there's a joke there but I will not use it.
Go ahead, there, cool, please.

Speaker 6 (37:26):
I don't talk to babies.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
Oh, come on, you're such a party booper. I don't
when those baby talk. Babies are great probably similar to no,
cat babies are great as long as you're not your
babies and you don't have to clean up after them.
But if there are other people's babies and you get
like they're they're you know, harrible. They haven't been exposed
to the evil things of the world.

Speaker 7 (37:48):
Yeah, sure, I'd probably talk to my cats, and in
that same type of voice though.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
All right, what is next? Let's ask Ben your question?
Good question, Lady Cyburns, what is next?

Speaker 6 (37:57):
All right?

Speaker 7 (37:58):
Uh fird, dog would like to know. Hipergie, do you
want a driverless car?

Speaker 8 (38:04):
No?

Speaker 1 (38:05):
I do not want to drive. If I die driving
a car, I want to be the one behind the
wheel making those decisions. I do not want someone else
making those decisions for me. I don't because, knowing my luck,
I'll be driving the car and then somehow the global
satellite system will die and the car will stop working.
And yeah, so, Lorraina, I like.

Speaker 5 (38:24):
The idea of having the options, so like on long
drives when it's a straight away and I can just
put my car and drive itself mode. But like for
the most part, no, I do want to be in control.

Speaker 7 (38:33):
Yes, all right, Koperloop, I would like it, but not
where we're at now. I feel like it have to
be further into the future when it's been perfected. But
you know, if I could take a nap all of
my drive somewhere, that'd be great.

Speaker 1 (38:50):
Yeah, I mean that part is obviously attractive. You know,
it'd saved me. I got a long trip in where
I live pretty far away from the studio, so it
would help me out in that department. What is next?
So what do we have here? Where are we at?

Speaker 7 (39:01):
All right, Mike the Leprechaun, I Mike, you would like
to know, given that you have a difficult work schedule,
when do you typically eat dinner?

Speaker 8 (39:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (39:09):
So I try to eat normally around four o'clock is
when I that's four to five, sometimes five to six,
but usually that's the sweet spot because where I live
in LA, that's when the East Coast games starts, So
I like to have the game on in the background
while I'm eating my supper, as they say, So that's
usually when I eat. What about you Lorraina.

Speaker 6 (39:28):
I'm a very sporadic eater. I usually eat more.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
I'm more of a You're more of a grazer. You
eat a little bit here, you like a rabbit, but
you eat a little bit here, a little bit there. Yeah,
But I eat like when I get off work in
the morning, before I go to bed, and then sometimes
I'll be got midday and then before work.

Speaker 5 (39:44):
I don't know, okay, and they're all different.

Speaker 7 (39:47):
Yeah, it's different for me too, but it's usually in
the like eight thirty nine area late.

Speaker 1 (39:54):
Yeah, I eat the same in the afternoon. I was
told by this guy, Biff Elliott, don't eat three hours before.

Speaker 8 (39:59):
You go to bed.

Speaker 1 (39:59):
I didn't have never. I always try to take three
hours off. Next, what are we at? What do we
have for donkey?

Speaker 6 (40:03):
Sausage? Wants to know? Will you start collecting pennies now?

Speaker 1 (40:08):
Listen? The penny is iconic. The penny will live on
and it'll become more famous now that the government has
stopped printing pennies. I'm fine, Benny versus the penny will
continue and it'll have nostalgia. Now it's a nostalgic show,
which means it's more valuable. The show here it is.
She's flipped right there.
