Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom Shaka Lacas.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
The Wild Goose Chase continues on the Ben Maler Show
as we get stir crazy in our number three on
this Thursday, the sixteenth day of October. And how do
you interpret George Pickens being noncommittal on his future with
the Cowboys after Jerry Jones was buttering his biscuits talking
(00:23):
about giving Pickens a new contract. Didn't sound like George
Pickens is going to run and grab that contract.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Also, can you.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Decode the Breece Hall story? What does Breece Hall want
from the Jets?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
He sent some.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Cryptic messages out on social media. Also, can you explain
why Albert Puhos is drawing managerial interest from multiple MLB teams.
He's never managed in the big leagues, he's never coached
in the big leagues, and yet there are multiple teams
that are looking at Prince Albert.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
We'll talk about that.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Here we go another come from behind victory as we
salt away the overnight in our number three. You want
the bag, not really what you want somebody else's bag.
Explain well, come in the beginning of another hour of
(01:18):
the Ben Mahlor Show, we are in the air everywhere,
navigating the rubble as we shut the front door, and
you are co conspirators in this coast to coast border,
the border and beyond on the vast and lyrically powerful
microphones of FSR am moinating live from the line. We've
(01:45):
got a baseline seat. We're not squandering it away from
the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by
not a Burner, Not a burner, and this portion of
the Ben Mather Show on Fox made possible in part
by our friends at tire Rack. That's right, Yes, I
know you're excited about that. It's all about the ti
(02:08):
Iraq forty years. Over forty years, ty Iraq has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
where they drive, ship fast and free back by free
road hazard protection, which makes Kathy and Madison very happy.
With convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. That's a
(02:29):
big for JJ in rentin tire iraq dot com the
way tire mind should be. So our lead this hour
from Pro Football. We did a baseball game last night.
The Mariners decided not to show up to that game
and did early Toronto, dominating the game. However, our lead
this hour from Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sounded like
(02:52):
a guy who was ready to pay George Pickens big money, money, money, money,
making it rain yive extension. You might remember in a
previous episode of the show, Jerry went on his radio
show in Dallas and essentially rolled out the red carpet.
I don't believe I'm embellishing that. I don't think I'm
puffing that up.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
He said that he loved the way.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Pickens was playing and polishing the silver star. Jerry Jones
essentially saying, by George, how many zeros do you want
on that blank check? Because we're the Cowboys. Everything's bigger
in Texas. So how did the player handle the news?
How did the player respond? Did you hear what he said?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
No?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Well, Pickins gave the rhetorical I love it here, but
let's just see how things go that whole routine.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
George Pickens, who is.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Set to become an unrestricted free agent after the season,
he did praise the Cowboys. However, he also noted that
he wants to quote showcase his talents. So that's a
good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. You
are now the investigator. Even Hugh on the five who's
(04:06):
now made it across the US Mexican border.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
He's driving on I five there.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
How do you interpret George Pickens being non committal, non
committal on his future with that Cowboys. So I've got
car wash, We've got figurehead, and we all if that
was not enough, see that probably be enough right there.
We also have modern warfare. So we will combine all
(04:35):
of these things together and we are gonna make the gobbagool.
We're gonna make the gobbagool. So, first of all, this
is the NFL's version talking about George Pickens being non
committal on his future with the Cowboys. This is the
NFL's version of I'm just not that into it. I'm
just not into it. There's a classic song from the
nineteen seventies by.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Rose Royce not her real name, Rose Royce. Were looking
at the car wash, and when I heard and.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Saw the words of George Pickens, I thought that that's
him working at a car wash.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
He's wishy washy, is what he's doing. He's doing. It's
the wishy washy car wash. It's better than digging a ditch.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
There ain't no telling who you might meet, and you
keep that leverage meter. If you're George Pickens. You crank
it up to level eleven.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
You do. Piggins is looking around, he's looking at that market.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And every man, woman and child knows if you are
the top receiver on the market, even if you're not
that good, and there's questions about your character and all that,
you're gonna get paid a ton of money. And my
spidy like senses, my spidy senses tell me that George
Pickens wants to be what he wants to be wide
(05:50):
receiver number one, and he knows and we all know
that playing in Dallas, you're gonna be the second fiddle
to Ceedee Lamb. Ceedee Lamb's hurt. Right now, Pickens has
an opportunity he's taking an advantage of. And as long
as Ceedee Lamb's there, and he's gonna be there for
a couple more years based on the contract, it ain't happy.
(06:12):
That's a no Buenos situation. George wants to be the guy.
You can't be the guy if there's someone else who's
already the guy. He wants the ball, he wants the money,
and you get the free agency and you look at
a team that's in a droughted wide receiver like the
New England Patriots or any other desperate team with a
(06:33):
fat wallet that will come knocking on your door.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
You can hear they're knocking right now, they're knocking.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Again, and you just answer the door, or if they
send you a text message, you're right back. Don't put
your phone on airplane mode. Pickins is essentially standing on
the front porch of the Death Star in Jerry's world,
is not committing to anything except the game.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
He's playing. The game. Don't hate the player. I hate
the game.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
He's playing the waiting game. And don't forget. Dallas can
offer him a ton of cash. They have the franchise
tags and all that. However, they cannot offer George Pickens
the thing that he apparently wants, and that is center
square in the Hollywood squares. He wants to be wide
receiver one and that belongs to ceedee Land. Pickens wants
(07:27):
a team. This is the way I'm reading the room.
He wants a team where he's the center of attraction
and not the guy who's the sidecar.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
That's what he wants. Can't get that in Dallas. Cannot
do it, cannot do it.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Secondly, speaking of unhappy NFL players, Without that, we would
have no talk show.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Breese Hall.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
I'm told by my friends that are Jets fans. He's amazing.
Breese Hall sent the New York Jet marching in Chada,
society and the media into a tizzy, inspired a bunch
of Internet sleuths detectives scrambling after he recently sent a
cryptic social media post with a very curious hashtag. You
(08:12):
love love to analyze social media posts. So here is
what Breese Hall sent out running back for the New
York Jets said, quote, this is after the game they
played in London, he said.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Quote they want me to lay down. They want me
to lay down.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
But I got some to stand for, sum some to
stand for.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
That's what he wrote.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Then hashtag he ended it. He dotted the I hashtag
free twenty. Hashtag free twenty. Now that must mean he
wants to go somewhere else. Yes, so reporters asked Breese Hall,
where do you want to play? Clearly don't want to
(09:03):
play here free twenty. Why would you say that you
don't want to please? You want to play here? Brisall
paused for a second. He said, a three letter word,
not a four letter word. A three letter word. He
said nah n a h h nah nah nah. All right,
(09:25):
so he said this in practice this week. He said
it was referencing. He said, this is a quote. It's
referencing like being in the moment, being in the game.
I'm ready for whatever.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Jets coach Aaron Glenn, who's apparently incompetent, dismissed the trade
chatter surrounding Bresall. He reiterated his previous position that the
Jets have no plans to trade.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
They're running back number one. I think we have that.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
So it was just to prove I'm not lying. Here's
some audio.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Let's go to the audio tape he said.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Before the season.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
If you're a pretty emphatic about not wanting to trade
Breese Hall.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
And all of a sudden, we're getting closer to the
dead legs.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Rulers are running ranted again, and but what's your position.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
At They're rumors.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
Do step for the time.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Way, Okay, they're rumors.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Keep in mind that all trades are not planned until
they're done, So technically Aaron Glenn is not lying. It
does not mean the Jets are not conversing with multiple
teams about trading bries Hall's question, can you decode the
part of Breese Hall using the hashtag three twenty when
(10:39):
he says that he did not ask for a trade,
he denied it from the Jets. Breese Hall has requested
not a trade. He has requested a car service. He
would like the car service to take him one of
free places to Newark, JFK or LaGuardia. That's it, that's all.
(11:01):
He would also like a one way ticket in the
transfer portal. It is right out of the Malcontent Playbook
for idiots. It is page seventy nine. You don't need
to call your agent anymore.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
You don't.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You don't need to meet with a GM face to
face and say I'm not happy here, I would like
a trade. Don't need to do it. Reference page seventy
nine of the Malcontent Playbook. You just post something very
dramatic on the gram. You add a spicy hot hashtag
and let the foot ball world panic at the disco.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Brice Hall might as well have written, dear other thirty
one franchises in the Cartela Pro Football, come get me,
Come get me. He essentially sent a signal flare in
the air everywhere. You don't ask for the trade, you
imply the trade. Then you have much like the federal
(12:02):
government loves plausible deniability, love that, And then when reporters
stick a mic in your face, you say, well, no,
I have plausible deniability. NA, you're just a boomer. You
don't know how to interpret young people. You're old, that's
what you say. I was just talking about living in
the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
You just don't get it because you're old. Police.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
It's like spilling red wine on a white carpet and
then announcing to the people in the room, it's not
what you think. It's abstract art.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
That is what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
That red wine is now a piece of art, a
mosaic on that white carpet. This ain't happening in a vacuum.
The Jets are not only an NFL team, they don't
appear to know how to tackle or block. They're zero
to six. Aaron Glenn, who played with Bill Parcells, who
famously used the line when he was talking about I
(12:56):
think his wife, and he said his wife didn't know
whether the football was puffed or stuffed in that wonderful line,
and Aaron's learned from Parcels the quarterback situation's a white
hot tire fire justin fields blows half the locker room
right now is on Zillow, and then they've got that
on their phones, trying to find out what can I
(13:16):
sell my place?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Where can I move to?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
With the trade deadline, And now you've got Breis Hall
publicly running the classico.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
I didn't say it, but I said it. I didn't
say it, but I said it.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Wink wink, not not yeah, spiler alert, spiler alert. It
does not end well. It doesn't final thought. We go
to baseball by request, by request, and we're not going
to talk more about the American League Championship Series, nor
am I about to talk about the National League Championship Series.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
What.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
We go to Baltimore, a graveyard for baseball for years,
Woe be gone, pathetic baseball team, the Orioles, good ballpark,
bad team, and they are seeking a new manager to
guide they're roster.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
They think they've got this young and up and coming roster.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
However, most prospects do not make it, and a prospect
is a suspect until approven otherwise. So the Orioles whacked
their manager during the season and know they are not
hiring sports With Coleman to be their new manager. Friend
of the show in Baltimore. Instead, they have now quote
expressed interest.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Close quote in Albert Poolhos. Yes, that Albert Poohos played
for the Saint Louis Cardinals. You might remember him stole
some money from the Angels.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
We're told that the Halos who paid Albert Pulos a
golden parachute to come retire in Anaheim while still collecting
a check. The Angels still remain the betting favorite to
land Albert as their skipper, and he did formally interview
for the job somewhat recently. So polosts now he last
(14:55):
played in the big leagues in twenty twenty two with
the Redbirds, went back to say Lewis after playing for
the Dodgers, believe it or not, briefly left the Angels,
went to the Dodgers, then went to Saint Louis. Question,
can you explain why Albert Polos is drawing managerial interest
now from multiple MLB teams, multiple NFL teams? So this
(15:18):
public flirtation for Albert Poolos is what two words.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Dad give away? It tells you everything.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Albert Poolos did not pull himself up by the bootstraps.
He's got zero big league coaching reps. He's got no
scars from twelve hour bus rides through Altoona in the
minor leagues, hasn't done any of that. Doesn't even have
the learners permit in the dugout.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Doesn't have that. Now he's getting ready.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If you believe the reporting for the Indy five hundred,
why would you give a guy that doesn't even have
his learner's permit in the dugout give him the keys
to a car in the Indianapolis five hundred because he
looks good behind the wheel.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Dummy, That's why. That's the only reason.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
And it tells us that something we have thought for many,
many years, now that baseball has changed, it's hot take validation.
It's what we say about Dave Roberts and Aaron Bone
and these other clowns, that managing in the big leagues
is a figurehead job. That the Orioles or the Angels,
(16:28):
whoever ends up with this guy, will hand Albert Puhos
a laminated card and they will feed him all of
the analytics, all of the numbers, all of the trends,
and what has happened, not what's going to happen, and
they'll put a teleprompter right there and they'll let him
in the dog out. They'll put a uniform on him,
give him a cap. He'll smile, he'll do interviews. The
(16:52):
fanboys and the baseball media will sit there and give
him the many and the petty sponsors will love him.
He'll do some events with sponsors low information fans. They'll say,
oh man, we've got Albert's our manager. And the front
office knows he won't rock the boat.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He'll be the face.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
And if you don't have any headline players, or your
headline players are getting old and they're always injured, bring
in a superstar. Bringing the nerds upstairs will do the
heavy lifting, so don't worry about that. It's the modern mullet.
It's the modern mullet haircut of Major League Baseball. If
you're a manager, it's the template. I use the term
(17:31):
mullet charisma in the front, spreadsheets in the back.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
But in this case it's.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Really it's fun in the front because you're the face
of the team, is the manager, and then in the
back it's the spreadsheets and all just follow the teleproperty.
Albert Pulos is not being wooed to outsmart the other
manager because nobody outsmarts the other manager. In modern baseball,
(17:59):
you just nerd versus nerd. It's the revenge of the nerds,
that's it. And so he wants to manage he said
a couple years ago, he wants to manage it. So
now he's getting an opportunity would appear.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
He'snna get one of these jobs, and that's it.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
And you hire him and he kind of looks like
he belongs there, right out of Central casting. And you
sell the dream and the analytics team will tell Albert
when to pull the starter, which relievers are available that day,
based on the probabilities on the three ring binder and
all that, and then the marketing crew will have you
(18:34):
go to some junkets and you'll meet with some season
ticket holders and corporate sponsors and we're all good.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
We're all good. It is the Ben Malor.

Speaker 6 (23:55):

Speaker 1 (23:56):
That's not correct? Correct answer?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
CBS Sports NFL broadcaster Spiro DTAs recently revealed his broadcast
teams group chat is called the AFC South Crew.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
The AFC South. Now, why is that funny? Why is that?
I mean, let me explain why that's funny.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
So the AFC South is the ugly redheaded step child
division of the NFL. That is, TV buys NFL broadcast rights.
They have to broadcast all the games that includes the
AFC South. Now, Spirodtas is not doing an AFC South
game this weekend.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
He's going to do the I think it's Miami Cleveland
I believe is in the matchup. I think that's it.
Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
We'll say hello to Texas Jack. Who's up next? Hello
Texas Jack, Welcome.
Speaker 10 (24:47):
Good morning, little Willie Miller.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
What's going on, Texas Jack? Luca doing with the Mavericks.
He's doing well with the Mavericks, Luca.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
I'm over it. I'm Cooper Flagon.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Now, okay, be careful how you say that. But I
got you. I got you. It's like a cigarette in Europe.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
I just left your hometown, the trash pile that it is.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Oh congratulations, thanks, thanks. Why didn't you come visit us?
You could have come by and said.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
Hello, I can't leave the truck, you know, how it is.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Why not other people have?
Speaker 10 (25:26):
Yeah, well.
Speaker 6 (25:29):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
I hear you, I hear you. All right, that is.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Bro.
Speaker 10 (25:41):
Do you think the Dodgers are going to pull it off?
Speaker 6 (25:45):
Of course you do.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Well.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I didn't think going into the playoffs they would pull
it off. But based on what I've seen, I don't
see any reason why they can't beat anyone left in
the playoffs. They have more talent than all the teams
left in the playoffs, So that doesn't mean they're gonna win.
But yeah, they should win the world.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
That's very disappointing, Jack. You were hoping the Brewers would
win those games, but they haven't.

Speaker 2 (27:45):
There's the great Texas Jack, we go from Texas Jack
to mad Jack as it's all Jacks all the time. Hello,
mad Jack, welcome.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Sage Venom and as the kids say, welcome back guys,
you and any we're counting me during a lorrain. I
love advice segment because I had my uber insurrections on
the air.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, it sounds like you're very busy, mad Jack. What
are you doing right now.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Right now, in part so that you don't get my
uber insurrections interfering with our segment here.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Yeah, we don't want that. That would be terrible. That
would be terrible. So what's on your mind, mad Jack?
What you got?
Speaker 4 (28:27):
Well, I don't upstad to ask Ben, but my question
is how much time do you guys need in advance
before making weekend plans? Kind of thinking maunt a mean.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Greet, you know, well, the issue is not the mean grat.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
We need time to promote it because we want to
get people to show up, and usually it takes at
least two weeks prior to get people to show up,
so it would have to be at least two weeks
to promote it. Otherwise, you know, people have plans, as
you know, mad Jack, and so that's that's that's really
the issue. But you know, I'm I do have plans
(29:04):
next weekend, but the weekend after that, I think I'm free.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
So yeah, we can figure something out. Well that's Halloween weekend.
I don't know gonna do it Halloween weekend without that. Yeah,
send me an email. I'll put you on. I'll put
you on a whole jack, send me an email. We'll talk.
We'll figure out some dates. How about that?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
All right, the Great Matt Mall we gotta do a
malon mean Green, So Coop, give my email. We'll figure
that out. Let's Sallo to Dick in Dayton. Hello, Dick, Welcome,

talking to Jeff and Titus and Andy and them. It's
it's a pretty bad situation.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Ben.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
I just don't know. I can't understand it. It just
I think to fonski's not doing right. But you got
two games till you're halfway. I don't think he's going
to lie. I really don't. Then it's just over and
over the same old thing. And I suggested we get
Bill Belichick back.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
That's a great idea. I think that's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
So we'll get Ridisterfanski. What about your top player, Miles Garrett.
People are very upset with him, Dick and Dayton that
he he didn't do anything against the Steelers and he's
just collecting a paycheck. Any advice you want to give
Miles Garrett, Dixter, I like Miles Garrett.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
I just think he's uh, you know, it's a shame
that he has to do this. But you know, I'm
telling you, Ben, people are just they have to cut
people off sometimes. But I always told yesterday I was
a caller of the day when I told him about Bill.
You know Bill Belichick, Bill Belichick.
Speaker 6 (30:47):
Yeah, And they told me that.
Speaker 9 (30:50):
Andrew remembered me a long time ago. I called him
Fox Sports, but sometimes he wanted me he's going to
have a call in show and wanted me to. I'm
sure we'll get along pretty good, really know.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Is that is that the play by play guy we're
talking about the same Andrew? Is this somebody else named
name Andrew Ceciliano.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Yeah, everybody like me.
Speaker 9 (31:13):
He's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
All right. We'll make sure to drop my name on there.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
You Me and Andrew go way back to the early
days of Fox Sports Radio. So you got to drop
my name on there, Dixter.

Him, Mike the Leprecaun.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
He wants to know are you fans of avocado?
Speaker 9 (33:53):
No?
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I do not like things that are green other than money,
so not a fan of the avocado. Although I have
my wife likes avocado, so I have had to take
the pit out of the avocado, and like everyone else,
almost cut myself a million times. What about you, Lorraine?
Speaker 7 (34:11):
I love avocado. Put some salt on that thing. That
can be a whole meal.
Speaker 10 (34:17):
Not for me.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
What about you, Coop love avocado?
Speaker 7 (34:20):
It's soda?
Speaker 1 (34:21):
Okay, Well on the wrong set of history.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
Next, all right to ask man. Your questions are answers
for the rest of the hour.
Speaker 7 (34:32):
As we bumble along, here's a question from Cowboy Killer.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
Hi, Cowboy Killer.
Speaker 7 (34:39):
He wants to know how big is the TV you
use the most at home?
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Well, that's a sore subject because we didn't the wife
or went bought TV and she didn't realize that the
way they measure TVs is diagonal, it's not across. And
so I think we just got a of fifty five
inches not. I mean it's big, but it's not like
I've been to other people's houses. They have those really
(35:05):
big one hundred inch TVs are like three thousand dollars.
I don't have one of lows. It's like a normal size.
You know, it's a little I got it like Costco
years ago or best Buy someone like that.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
What about you, Lorena?
Speaker 7 (35:17):
Was the question do I like watching TV? Or how big?
Speaker 9 (35:19):
It was like?
Speaker 1 (35:20):
I think it was the side I understood that the
guise of the TV, the TV that you used the most.
Speaker 7 (35:24):
How big is it's like twenty two inches? What it's small?
I have a small TV? Damn Why does it need
to be big?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I thought you'd want something bigger?
Speaker 9 (35:34):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
What about you, Coop?
Speaker 7 (35:35):
It's all about how you use it. Boys, it's a
I believe it's sixty five inches.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Oh that's what that's what she said? All right? Now,
what is next?
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Very uncomfortable?
Speaker 1 (35:50):
That would be imagine trying to run with that. That
would be great to Yeah, all right, yeah, you go
all up in the way. I don't know.
Speaker 7 (35:58):
Maybe you guys know what this is.
Speaker 5 (36:00):
Bobby and Florida asked, Hi, Bobby, have you ever participated
in Mischief Night?
Speaker 10 (36:06):
Do you know where that is?
Speaker 9 (36:07):
Uh? No?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Is that it's obviously something around Halloween.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
It's not not Devil's Night, which they used to like
burn everything up the around Halloween, and I remember that
was in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
I don't know what what is that? Loraina? Do you
know what that is?
Speaker 7 (36:19):
I think it's just where you go and cause havoc
throughout your neighborhood, you know.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
But no, I have not if that's what I didn't
know it had a formal name. Like when we were
kids in high school.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Yeah, we destroyed pumpkins, toilet paper, people's houses, see all
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah, I did that when I was a kid.
Speaker 5 (36:34):
Yeah, sure, next, all right, Late night drug tester, High
drug tester. He says, tomorrow is National Pasta Day. What
is your favorite pasta shape?
Speaker 6 (36:47):
Well?
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I ate. The problem is I ate a lot of spaghetti.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
When I was a kid, my mom was a cheap
meal We had a lot of spaghetti, and there were
three or four things that we ate all the time.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
One of them was spaghetti.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
So now as an adult, I don't eat spaghetti. I
love fetichini Alfredos might go to. When I go to
an Attian restaurant, I go fetichini. I love fetticini noodle,
which is like a fat or spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
What about you, Lorraine? Also Rabby always good, but that's
not really the same thing. Go ahead, Lorrain.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
Yeah, I'm a big fan of fettucini, and I like
the ones that are I think it's Penny, the one
that has the hole through the center and you can
fill it with sauce.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
I don't think.
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Okay, all right, Coop Rigatoni is my favorite.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Coop takes his pasta very seriously.
Speaker 7 (37:30):
Yes I do.
Speaker 6 (37:31):
I do.
Speaker 5 (37:31):
But Rigatoni it's got the it's got the ridges so
it can really soak up the sauce.
Speaker 7 (37:35):
That's it's good stuff.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Yeah, I've had it. I've had it in the past,
for sure.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
It's asked Ben your questions our answers hashtag ask Ben
for the rest of the hour.
Speaker 1 (37:45):
These are actual questions by actual listeners. And what's next.
Speaker 7 (37:49):
Fer Dog would like to know?
Speaker 5 (37:51):
Hi, Fergie, will you be giving out fun size or
full sized candy bars this year?
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
So the candy thing is, I don't even know if
we're giving out candy year. The reason why is the
last couple of years has been hardly any kids. We
buy this giant sized bag from Costco.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
And I end up eating it and I get it out.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
I know, So what's the point now? I could buy
a small bag of candy. I think it's usually Halloween
happens during the weekend.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
I gotta work.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
It's on a night we don't do the radio show.
So I might actually go to my niece and nephew's
house and they'll go trick or tree.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
I don't know. I've not decided, but most likely we'll
not be giving out anything this year. What about you, Lorena,
I don't give out candy.
Speaker 7 (38:32):
I go trick or treating.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
No, you don't, I do. Come on, Loraine, you're a
grown woman.
Speaker 7 (38:37):
I'll bring in the candy for you.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Okay, Well that's fun. Go ahead, Coop.
Speaker 7 (38:43):
I will not be giving out candy this year. I
will be in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Lost Wages, Nevada. All right, what is next year? It's
Ask Ben? Your questions are answers. We're doing the extended
dance remix of Ask Ben.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Until you scream bloody murder and then we'll stop. All right.
Speaker 7 (39:02):
This question is from Donkey Sausage.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Hi, Donkey.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
He wants to know what is your favorite unsolved mystery?
Speaker 2 (39:10):
So I mentioned this on the show several times over
the years. It was a famous hijacking in the Pacific Northwest.
dB Cooper, I'd love to know it's not like the
great like Roswell's another wonderful one, which would likely trump
dB Cooper. I read so much about dB Cooper years ago.
(39:32):
I loved that story.
Speaker 1 (39:33):
The Roswell thing is great too, Like, what was that? Really?
What about you, Lorrena.
Speaker 5 (39:39):
I'm gonna have to go with whether Walt Disney is
actually dead or frozen in a capsule?
Speaker 6 (39:47):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Okay, that's a good one. That's good one. Okay, all right,
moving on in the broadcast spoiler, he's dead and even
if he was alive, he'd still be dead. Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 5 (40:00):
I think I gotta go with maybe the identity of
Jack the Ripper, Right, they never figured that out.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Right, I don't know, I don't think so. But what
about the cool roswellt goblins? Aliens?
Speaker 7 (40:15):
I believe in aliens. I mean, I'm pretty sure, that's right,
I know, but if.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
They actually landed there. See I think the cell phone,
the internet's all alien technology. How about that?
Speaker 7 (40:24):
Yeah, that's that surprised me.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Everything kind of.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Took off after roswell New Mexico. I'm gonna go coast
to coast move over, George Norri
Boom Shaka Lacas.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
The Wild Goose Chase continues on the Ben Maler Show
as we get stir crazy in our number three on
this Thursday, the sixteenth day of October. And how do
you interpret George Pickens being noncommittal on his future with
the Cowboys after Jerry Jones was buttering his biscuits talking
(00:23):
about giving Pickens a new contract. Didn't sound like George
Pickens is going to run and grab that contract.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Also, can you.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Decode the Breece Hall story? What does Breece Hall want
from the Jets?
Speaker 1 (00:36):
He sent some.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Cryptic messages out on social media. Also, can you explain
why Albert Puhos is drawing managerial interest from multiple MLB teams.
He's never managed in the big leagues, he's never coached
in the big leagues, and yet there are multiple teams
that are looking at Prince Albert.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
We'll talk about that.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Here we go another come from behind victory as we
salt away the overnight in our number three. You want
the bag, not really what you want somebody else's bag.
Explain well, come in the beginning of another hour of
(01:18):
the Ben Mahlor Show, we are in the air everywhere,
navigating the rubble as we shut the front door, and
you are co conspirators in this coast to coast border,
the border and beyond on the vast and lyrically powerful
microphones of FSR am moinating live from the line. We've
(01:45):
got a baseline seat. We're not squandering it away from
the world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by
not a Burner, Not a burner, and this portion of
the Ben Mather Show on Fox made possible in part
by our friends at tire Rack. That's right, Yes, I
know you're excited about that. It's all about the ti
(02:08):
Iraq forty years. Over forty years, ty Iraq has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
where they drive, ship fast and free back by free
road hazard protection, which makes Kathy and Madison very happy.
With convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. That's a
(02:29):
big for JJ in rentin tire iraq dot com the
way tire mind should be. So our lead this hour
from Pro Football. We did a baseball game last night.
The Mariners decided not to show up to that game
and did early Toronto, dominating the game. However, our lead
this hour from Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones sounded like
(02:52):
a guy who was ready to pay George Pickens big money, money, money, money,
making it rain yive extension. You might remember in a
previous episode of the show, Jerry went on his radio
show in Dallas and essentially rolled out the red carpet.
I don't believe I'm embellishing that. I don't think I'm
puffing that up.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
He said that he loved the way.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Pickens was playing and polishing the silver star. Jerry Jones
essentially saying, by George, how many zeros do you want
on that blank check? Because we're the Cowboys. Everything's bigger
in Texas. So how did the player handle the news?
How did the player respond? Did you hear what he said?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
No?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Well, Pickins gave the rhetorical I love it here, but
let's just see how things go that whole routine.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
George Pickens, who is.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Set to become an unrestricted free agent after the season,
he did praise the Cowboys. However, he also noted that
he wants to quote showcase his talents. So that's a
good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question. You
are now the investigator. Even Hugh on the five who's
(04:06):
now made it across the US Mexican border.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
He's driving on I five there.
Speaker 2 (04:11):
How do you interpret George Pickens being non committal, non
committal on his future with that Cowboys. So I've got
car wash, We've got figurehead, and we all if that
was not enough, see that probably be enough right there.
We also have modern warfare. So we will combine all
(04:35):
of these things together and we are gonna make the gobbagool.
We're gonna make the gobbagool. So, first of all, this
is the NFL's version talking about George Pickens being non
committal on his future with the Cowboys. This is the
NFL's version of I'm just not that into it. I'm
just not into it. There's a classic song from the
nineteen seventies by.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Rose Royce not her real name, Rose Royce. Were looking
at the car wash, and when I heard and.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
Saw the words of George Pickens, I thought that that's
him working at a car wash.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
He's wishy washy, is what he's doing. He's doing. It's
the wishy washy car wash. It's better than digging a ditch.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
There ain't no telling who you might meet, and you
keep that leverage meter. If you're George Pickens. You crank
it up to level eleven.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
You do. Piggins is looking around, he's looking at that market.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And every man, woman and child knows if you are
the top receiver on the market, even if you're not
that good, and there's questions about your character and all that,
you're gonna get paid a ton of money. And my
spidy like senses, my spidy senses tell me that George
Pickens wants to be what he wants to be wide
(05:50):
receiver number one, and he knows and we all know
that playing in Dallas, you're gonna be the second fiddle
to Ceedee Lamb. Ceedee Lamb's hurt. Right now, Pickens has
an opportunity he's taking an advantage of. And as long
as Ceedee Lamb's there, and he's gonna be there for
a couple more years based on the contract, it ain't happy.
(06:12):
That's a no Buenos situation. George wants to be the guy.
You can't be the guy if there's someone else who's
already the guy. He wants the ball, he wants the money,
and you get the free agency and you look at
a team that's in a droughted wide receiver like the
New England Patriots or any other desperate team with a
(06:33):
fat wallet that will come knocking on your door.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
You can hear they're knocking right now, they're knocking.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Again, and you just answer the door, or if they
send you a text message, you're right back. Don't put
your phone on airplane mode. Pickins is essentially standing on
the front porch of the Death Star in Jerry's world,
is not committing to anything except the game.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
He's playing. The game. Don't hate the player. I hate
the game.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
He's playing the waiting game. And don't forget. Dallas can
offer him a ton of cash. They have the franchise
tags and all that. However, they cannot offer George Pickens
the thing that he apparently wants, and that is center
square in the Hollywood squares. He wants to be wide
receiver one and that belongs to ceedee Land. Pickens wants
(07:27):
a team. This is the way I'm reading the room.
He wants a team where he's the center of attraction
and not the guy who's the sidecar.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
That's what he wants. Can't get that in Dallas. Cannot
do it, cannot do it.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
Secondly, speaking of unhappy NFL players, Without that, we would
have no talk show.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Breese Hall.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
I'm told by my friends that are Jets fans. He's amazing.
Breese Hall sent the New York Jet marching in Chada,
society and the media into a tizzy, inspired a bunch
of Internet sleuths detectives scrambling after he recently sent a
cryptic social media post with a very curious hashtag. You
(08:12):
love love to analyze social media posts. So here is
what Breese Hall sent out running back for the New
York Jets said, quote, this is after the game they
played in London, he said.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
Quote they want me to lay down. They want me
to lay down.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
But I got some to stand for, sum some to
stand for.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
That's what he wrote.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Then hashtag he ended it. He dotted the I hashtag
free twenty. Hashtag free twenty. Now that must mean he
wants to go somewhere else. Yes, so reporters asked Breese Hall,
where do you want to play? Clearly don't want to
(09:03):
play here free twenty. Why would you say that you
don't want to please? You want to play here? Brisall
paused for a second. He said, a three letter word,
not a four letter word. A three letter word. He
said nah n a h h nah nah nah. All right,
(09:25):
so he said this in practice this week. He said
it was referencing. He said, this is a quote. It's
referencing like being in the moment, being in the game.
I'm ready for whatever.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Jets coach Aaron Glenn, who's apparently incompetent, dismissed the trade
chatter surrounding Bresall. He reiterated his previous position that the
Jets have no plans to trade.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
They're running back number one. I think we have that.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
So it was just to prove I'm not lying. Here's
some audio.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
Let's go to the audio tape he said.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Before the season.
Speaker 5 (10:03):
If you're a pretty emphatic about not wanting to trade
Breese Hall.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
And all of a sudden, we're getting closer to the
dead legs.
Speaker 6 (10:09):
Rulers are running ranted again, and but what's your position.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
At They're rumors.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
Do step for the time.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Way, Okay, they're rumors.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
Keep in mind that all trades are not planned until
they're done, So technically Aaron Glenn is not lying. It
does not mean the Jets are not conversing with multiple
teams about trading bries Hall's question, can you decode the
part of Breese Hall using the hashtag three twenty when
(10:39):
he says that he did not ask for a trade,
he denied it from the Jets. Breese Hall has requested
not a trade. He has requested a car service. He
would like the car service to take him one of
free places to Newark, JFK or LaGuardia. That's it, that's all.
(11:01):
He would also like a one way ticket in the
transfer portal. It is right out of the Malcontent Playbook
for idiots. It is page seventy nine. You don't need
to call your agent anymore.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
You don't.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You don't need to meet with a GM face to
face and say I'm not happy here, I would like
a trade. Don't need to do it. Reference page seventy
nine of the Malcontent Playbook. You just post something very
dramatic on the gram. You add a spicy hot hashtag
and let the foot ball world panic at the disco.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
Now.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
Brice Hall might as well have written, dear other thirty
one franchises in the Cartela Pro Football, come get me,
Come get me. He essentially sent a signal flare in
the air everywhere. You don't ask for the trade, you
imply the trade. Then you have much like the federal
(12:02):
government loves plausible deniability, love that, And then when reporters
stick a mic in your face, you say, well, no,
I have plausible deniability. NA, you're just a boomer. You
don't know how to interpret young people. You're old, that's
what you say. I was just talking about living in
the moment.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
You just don't get it because you're old. Police.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
It's like spilling red wine on a white carpet and
then announcing to the people in the room, it's not
what you think. It's abstract art.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
That is what it is.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
That red wine is now a piece of art, a
mosaic on that white carpet. This ain't happening in a vacuum.
The Jets are not only an NFL team, they don't
appear to know how to tackle or block. They're zero
to six. Aaron Glenn, who played with Bill Parcells, who
famously used the line when he was talking about I
(12:56):
think his wife, and he said his wife didn't know
whether the football was puffed or stuffed in that wonderful line,
and Aaron's learned from Parcels the quarterback situation's a white
hot tire fire justin fields blows half the locker room
right now is on Zillow, and then they've got that
on their phones, trying to find out what can I
(13:16):
sell my place?
Speaker 1 (13:16):
Where can I move to?
Speaker 2 (13:17):
With the trade deadline, And now you've got Breis Hall
publicly running the classico.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
I didn't say it, but I said it. I didn't
say it, but I said it.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Wink wink, not not yeah, spiler alert, spiler alert. It
does not end well. It doesn't final thought. We go
to baseball by request, by request, and we're not going
to talk more about the American League Championship Series, nor
am I about to talk about the National League Championship Series.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
What.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
We go to Baltimore, a graveyard for baseball for years,
Woe be gone, pathetic baseball team, the Orioles, good ballpark,
bad team, and they are seeking a new manager to
guide they're roster.
Speaker 6 (14:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
They think they've got this young and up and coming roster.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
However, most prospects do not make it, and a prospect
is a suspect until approven otherwise. So the Orioles whacked
their manager during the season and know they are not
hiring sports With Coleman to be their new manager. Friend
of the show in Baltimore. Instead, they have now quote
expressed interest.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
Close quote in Albert Poolhos. Yes, that Albert Poohos played
for the Saint Louis Cardinals. You might remember him stole
some money from the Angels.
Speaker 2 (14:32):
We're told that the Halos who paid Albert Pulos a
golden parachute to come retire in Anaheim while still collecting
a check. The Angels still remain the betting favorite to
land Albert as their skipper, and he did formally interview
for the job somewhat recently. So polosts now he last
(14:55):
played in the big leagues in twenty twenty two with
the Redbirds, went back to say Lewis after playing for
the Dodgers, believe it or not, briefly left the Angels,
went to the Dodgers, then went to Saint Louis. Question,
can you explain why Albert Polos is drawing managerial interest
now from multiple MLB teams, multiple NFL teams? So this
(15:18):
public flirtation for Albert Poolos is what two words.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Dad give away? It tells you everything.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Albert Poolos did not pull himself up by the bootstraps.
He's got zero big league coaching reps. He's got no
scars from twelve hour bus rides through Altoona in the
minor leagues, hasn't done any of that. Doesn't even have
the learners permit in the dugout.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Doesn't have that. Now he's getting ready.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
If you believe the reporting for the Indy five hundred,
why would you give a guy that doesn't even have
his learner's permit in the dugout give him the keys
to a car in the Indianapolis five hundred because he
looks good behind the wheel.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Dummy, That's why. That's the only reason.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
And it tells us that something we have thought for many,
many years, now that baseball has changed, it's hot take validation.
It's what we say about Dave Roberts and Aaron Bone
and these other clowns, that managing in the big leagues
is a figurehead job. That the Orioles or the Angels,
(16:28):
whoever ends up with this guy, will hand Albert Puhos
a laminated card and they will feed him all of
the analytics, all of the numbers, all of the trends,
and what has happened, not what's going to happen, and
they'll put a teleprompter right there and they'll let him
in the dog out. They'll put a uniform on him,
give him a cap. He'll smile, he'll do interviews. The
(16:52):
fanboys and the baseball media will sit there and give
him the many and the petty sponsors will love him.
He'll do some events with sponsors low information fans. They'll say,
oh man, we've got Albert's our manager. And the front
office knows he won't rock the boat.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He'll be the face.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
And if you don't have any headline players, or your
headline players are getting old and they're always injured, bring
in a superstar. Bringing the nerds upstairs will do the
heavy lifting, so don't worry about that. It's the modern mullet.
It's the modern mullet haircut of Major League Baseball. If
you're a manager, it's the template. I use the term
(17:31):
mullet charisma in the front, spreadsheets in the back.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
But in this case it's.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Really it's fun in the front because you're the face
of the team, is the manager, and then in the
back it's the spreadsheets and all just follow the teleproperty.
Albert Pulos is not being wooed to outsmart the other
manager because nobody outsmarts the other manager. In modern baseball,
(17:59):
you just nerd versus nerd. It's the revenge of the nerds,
that's it. And so he wants to manage he said
a couple years ago, he wants to manage it. So
now he's getting an opportunity would appear.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
He'snna get one of these jobs, and that's it.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
And you hire him and he kind of looks like
he belongs there, right out of Central casting. And you
sell the dream and the analytics team will tell Albert
when to pull the starter, which relievers are available that day,
based on the probabilities on the three ring binder and
all that, and then the marketing crew will have you
(18:34):
go to some junkets and you'll meet with some season
ticket holders and corporate sponsors and we're all good.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
We're all good. It is the Ben Malor.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
We do have ask Ben coming up in a little bit,
but first to payoff on the always popular Mallard Riddle
of the day. CBS Sports NFL broadcast Spirodius recently revealed
that his broadcast team's group chat is called blank. That
is the question, what is the answer? And let's see

Speaker 6 (23:55):

Speaker 1 (23:56):
That's not correct? Correct answer?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
CBS Sports NFL broadcaster Spiro DTAs recently revealed his broadcast
teams group chat is called the AFC South Crew.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
The AFC South. Now, why is that funny? Why is that?
I mean, let me explain why that's funny.
Speaker 2 (24:18):
So the AFC South is the ugly redheaded step child
division of the NFL. That is, TV buys NFL broadcast rights.
They have to broadcast all the games that includes the
AFC South. Now, Spirodtas is not doing an AFC South
game this weekend.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
He's going to do the I think it's Miami Cleveland
I believe is in the matchup. I think that's it.
Let's go to the phones.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
We'll say hello to Texas Jack. Who's up next? Hello
Texas Jack, Welcome.
Speaker 10 (24:47):
Good morning, little Willie Miller.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
What's going on, Texas Jack? Luca doing with the Mavericks.
He's doing well with the Mavericks, Luca.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
I'm over it. I'm Cooper Flagon.
Speaker 1 (25:00):
Now, okay, be careful how you say that. But I
got you. I got you. It's like a cigarette in Europe.
Speaker 10 (25:07):
I just left your hometown, the trash pile that it is.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Oh congratulations, thanks, thanks. Why didn't you come visit us?
You could have come by and said.
Speaker 6 (25:18):
Hello, I can't leave the truck, you know, how it is.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
Why not other people have?
Speaker 10 (25:26):
Yeah, well.
Speaker 6 (25:29):
I can't.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
I hear you, I hear you. All right, that is.
Speaker 6 (25:41):
Bro.
Speaker 10 (25:41):
Do you think the Dodgers are going to pull it off?
Speaker 6 (25:45):
Of course you do.
Speaker 9 (25:46):
Well.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
I didn't think going into the playoffs they would pull
it off. But based on what I've seen, I don't
see any reason why they can't beat anyone left in
the playoffs. They have more talent than all the teams
left in the playoffs, So that doesn't mean they're gonna win.
But yeah, they should win the world.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
I know.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
That's very disappointing, Jack. You were hoping the Brewers would
win those games, but they haven't.
Speaker 10 (26:07):
Well, I hope anybody but the Dodgers. Dodgers and Yankees
either one, because they're bites playing the same day.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Yeah, well, you're not going to get your wish. You're
not not getting your wish at all. Where are you headed,
by the way?
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Hitting back home?
Speaker 6 (26:21):
Yeah, I'm headed to Texas?
Speaker 1 (26:24):
All right? I'll take another how many another day to
get there? What are we looking at?
Speaker 6 (26:29):
Two days?
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Two days? All right? There you go?
Speaker 2 (26:32):
Are you stopping where you stop? Where you stopping next?
Where are you stopping next?
Speaker 10 (26:37):
It'll probably be somewhere in New Mexico, just.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Some random town in New Mexican. You have no idea.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
Yeah, dude, well my time runs out.
Speaker 6 (26:48):
I'll stop and park.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
There you go.
Speaker 2 (26:51):
How many hours a day are you allowed to drive
before you get on the natty list?
Speaker 6 (26:55):
Eleven?
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Eleven?
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Okay, yes, sir.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
I got you.
Speaker 2 (27:00):
Can you do like five hours? Take a break through
six hours, or you got to do like the whole.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
Well, you got you got it.
Speaker 10 (27:06):
You can drive eight hours and then you have to
take a thirty minute break and then you get another Yeah,
three hours.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Okay, I got you.
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Well, it's good here for your Jack and joy palm springs.
Get the hell out of California as fast as you can.
Speaker 6 (27:19):
Okay, I'm giving it my bath.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
All right, thank you Jack.
Speaker 6 (27:23):
Horn horn shot for you?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Horn shot we go? Did we hang up on them
before the horn shot? Is that what we did? He's
still there, He's still there.
Speaker 10 (27:34):
I'm still here.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I thought you were going to hit the horn. I
didn't hear it.
Speaker 6 (27:37):
Oh you didn't hear it. Let me roll the window
down a little bit.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Okay, all right, oh there you go.
Speaker 2 (27:42):
Yeah, all right, all.
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Right, thank you Jack.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
There's the great Texas Jack, we go from Texas Jack
to mad Jack as it's all Jacks all the time. Hello,
mad Jack, welcome.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Sage Venom and as the kids say, welcome back guys,
you and any we're counting me during a lorrain. I
love advice segment because I had my uber insurrections on
the air.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah, it sounds like you're very busy, mad Jack. What
are you doing right now.
Speaker 4 (28:14):
Right now, in part so that you don't get my
uber insurrections interfering with our segment here.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Yeah, we don't want that. That would be terrible. That
would be terrible. So what's on your mind, mad Jack?
What you got?
Speaker 4 (28:27):
Well, I don't upstad to ask Ben, but my question
is how much time do you guys need in advance
before making weekend plans? Kind of thinking maunt a mean.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Greet, you know, well, the issue is not the mean grat.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
We need time to promote it because we want to
get people to show up, and usually it takes at
least two weeks prior to get people to show up,
so it would have to be at least two weeks
to promote it. Otherwise, you know, people have plans, as
you know, mad Jack, and so that's that's that's really
the issue. But you know, I'm I do have plans
(29:04):
next weekend, but the weekend after that, I think I'm free.
Speaker 1 (29:06):
So yeah, we can figure something out. Well that's Halloween weekend.
I don't know gonna do it Halloween weekend without that. Yeah,
send me an email. I'll put you on. I'll put
you on a whole jack, send me an email. We'll talk.
We'll figure out some dates. How about that?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
All right, the Great Matt Mall we gotta do a
malon mean Green, So Coop, give my email. We'll figure
that out. Let's Sallo to Dick in Dayton. Hello, Dick, Welcome,
But Dick's you're calling early?
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Up early today?
Speaker 10 (29:30):
Dick up early?
Speaker 9 (29:31):
Yeah, I got up early. I thought i'd give you
a shout out.
Speaker 6 (29:34):
But yeah, you know what.
Speaker 9 (29:38):
Heads are rolling in Cleveland. I'm telling you. I've been
talking to Jeff and Titus and Andy and them. It's
it's a pretty bad situation.
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Ben.
Speaker 9 (29:48):
I just don't know. I can't understand it. It just
I think to fonski's not doing right. But you got
two games till you're halfway. I don't think he's going
to lie. I really don't. Then it's just over and
over the same old thing. And I suggested we get
Bill Belichick back.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
That's a great idea. I think that's a great idea.
Speaker 2 (30:10):
So we'll get Ridisterfanski. What about your top player, Miles Garrett.
People are very upset with him, Dick and Dayton that
he he didn't do anything against the Steelers and he's
just collecting a paycheck. Any advice you want to give
Miles Garrett, Dixter, I like Miles Garrett.
Speaker 9 (30:27):
I just think he's uh, you know, it's a shame
that he has to do this. But you know, I'm
telling you, Ben, people are just they have to cut
people off sometimes. But I always told yesterday I was
a caller of the day when I told him about Bill.
You know Bill Belichick, Bill Belichick.
Speaker 6 (30:47):
Yeah, And they told me that.
Speaker 9 (30:50):
Andrew remembered me a long time ago. I called him
Fox Sports, but sometimes he wanted me he's going to

Hi, Cowboy Killer.
Speaker 7 (34:39):
He wants to know how big is the TV you
use the most at home?
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Well, that's a sore subject because we didn't the wife
or went bought TV and she didn't realize that the
way they measure TVs is diagonal, it's not across. And
so I think we just got a of fifty five
inches not. I mean it's big, but it's not like
I've been to other people's houses. They have those really
(35:05):
big one hundred inch TVs are like three thousand dollars.
I don't have one of lows. It's like a normal size.
You know, it's a little I got it like Costco
years ago or best Buy someone like that.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
What about you, Lorena?
Speaker 7 (35:17):
Was the question do I like watching TV? Or how big?
Speaker 9 (35:19):
It was like?
Speaker 1 (35:20):
I think it was the side I understood that the
guise of the TV, the TV that you used the most.
Speaker 7 (35:24):
How big is it's like twenty two inches? What it's small?
I have a small TV? Damn Why does it need
to be big?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I thought you'd want something bigger?
Speaker 9 (35:34):
Right?
Speaker 1 (35:34):
What about you, Coop?
Speaker 7 (35:35):
It's all about how you use it. Boys, it's a
I believe it's sixty five inches.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Oh that's what that's what she said? All right? Now,
what is next?
Speaker 7 (35:49):
Very uncomfortable?
Speaker 1 (35:50):
That would be imagine trying to run with that. That
would be great to Yeah, all right, yeah, you go
all up in the way. I don't know.
Speaker 7 (35:58):
Maybe you guys know what this is.
Speaker 5 (36:00):
Bobby and Florida asked, Hi, Bobby, have you ever participated
in Mischief Night?
Speaker 10 (36:06):
Do you know where that is?
Speaker 9 (36:07):
Uh? No?
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Is that it's obviously something around Halloween.
Speaker 2 (36:11):
It's not not Devil's Night, which they used to like
burn everything up the around Halloween, and I remember that
was in Detroit.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
I don't know what what is that? Loraina? Do you
know what that is?
Speaker 7 (36:19):
I think it's just where you go and cause havoc
throughout your neighborhood, you know.
Speaker 1 (36:23):
But no, I have not if that's what I didn't
know it had a formal name. Like when we were
kids in high school.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
Yeah, we destroyed pumpkins, toilet paper, people's houses, see all
that kind of stuff.
Speaker 1 (36:32):
Yeah, I did that when I was a kid.
Speaker 5 (36:34):
Yeah, sure, next, all right, Late night drug tester, High
drug tester. He says, tomorrow is National Pasta Day. What
is your favorite pasta shape?
Speaker 6 (36:47):
Well?
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I ate. The problem is I ate a lot of spaghetti.
Speaker 2 (36:50):
When I was a kid, my mom was a cheap
meal We had a lot of spaghetti, and there were
three or four things that we ate all the time.
Speaker 1 (36:56):
One of them was spaghetti.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
So now as an adult, I don't eat spaghetti. I
love fetichini Alfredos might go to. When I go to
an Attian restaurant, I go fetichini. I love fetticini noodle,
which is like a fat or spaghetti.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
What about you, Lorraine? Also Rabby always good, but that's
not really the same thing. Go ahead, Lorrain.
Speaker 7 (37:12):
Yeah, I'm a big fan of fettucini, and I like
the ones that are I think it's Penny, the one
that has the hole through the center and you can
fill it with sauce.
Speaker 1 (37:21):
I don't think.
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Okay, all right, Coop Rigatoni is my favorite.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Coop takes his pasta very seriously.
Speaker 7 (37:30):
Yes I do.
Speaker 6 (37:31):
I do.
Speaker 5 (37:31):
But Rigatoni it's got the it's got the ridges so
it can really soak up the sauce.
Speaker 7 (37:35):
That's it's good stuff.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Yeah, I've had it. I've had it in the past,
for sure.

Speaker 7 (37:49):
Fer Dog would like to know?
Speaker 5 (37:51):
Hi, Fergie, will you be giving out fun size or
full sized candy bars this year?
Speaker 1 (37:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
So the candy thing is, I don't even know if
we're giving out candy year. The reason why is the
last couple of years has been hardly any kids. We
buy this giant sized bag from Costco.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
And I end up eating it and I get it out.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
I know, So what's the point now? I could buy
a small bag of candy. I think it's usually Halloween
happens during the weekend.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
I gotta work.
Speaker 2 (38:18):
It's on a night we don't do the radio show.
So I might actually go to my niece and nephew's
house and they'll go trick or tree.
Speaker 1 (38:25):
I don't know. I've not decided, but most likely we'll
not be giving out anything this year. What about you, Lorena,
I don't give out candy.
Speaker 7 (38:32):
I go trick or treating.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
No, you don't, I do. Come on, Loraine, you're a
grown woman.
Speaker 7 (38:37):
I'll bring in the candy for you.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Okay, Well that's fun. Go ahead, Coop.
Speaker 7 (38:43):
I will not be giving out candy this year. I
will be in Las Vegas.
Speaker 2 (38:47):
Lost Wages, Nevada. All right, what is next year? It's
Ask Ben? Your questions are answers. We're doing the extended
dance remix of Ask Ben.
Speaker 1 (38:58):

Speaker 7 (39:02):
This question is from Donkey Sausage.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Hi, Donkey.
Speaker 7 (39:05):
He wants to know what is your favorite unsolved mystery?
Speaker 2 (39:10):
So I mentioned this on the show several times over
the years. It was a famous hijacking in the Pacific Northwest.
dB Cooper, I'd love to know it's not like the
great like Roswell's another wonderful one, which would likely trump
dB Cooper. I read so much about dB Cooper years ago.
(39:32):
I loved that story.
Speaker 1 (39:33):
The Roswell thing is great too, Like, what was that? Really?
What about you, Lorrena.
Speaker 5 (39:39):
I'm gonna have to go with whether Walt Disney is
actually dead or frozen in a capsule?
Speaker 6 (39:47):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Okay, that's a good one. That's good one. Okay, all right,
moving on in the broadcast spoiler, he's dead and even
if he was alive, he'd still be dead. Yes, go ahead.
Speaker 5 (40:00):
I think I gotta go with maybe the identity of
Jack the Ripper, Right, they never figured that out.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Right, I don't know, I don't think so. But what
about the cool roswellt goblins? Aliens?
Speaker 7 (40:15):
I believe in aliens. I mean, I'm pretty sure, that's right,
I know, but if.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
They actually landed there. See I think the cell phone,
the internet's all alien technology. How about that?
Speaker 7 (40:24):
Yeah, that's that surprised me.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Everything kind of.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Took off after roswell New Mexico. I'm gonna go coast
to coast move over, George Norri
