Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom shaka Laca. It's our numb berth three. Thank you
for listening to the podcast. Lebron James, another player added
to the Lakers. Lebron not engaged with Marcus Smart or
any other Laker roster additions, how does that compute with you?
Marcus Smart said he hadn't spoken with Lebron, he did

(00:22):
spoke speak with Luca. Also, the WNBA lost thirty six
percent of their television audience without Caitlin Clark playing in
their All Star game. What does that tell you? And
Red Sox pitcher Lucas Gialito said he's getting messages from
angry betters after every game, so he took his concerns

(00:43):
straight to the commissioner, Rob Manford. What do you take
away from that? All of it right now here? It
is our number three another this silent night, soe whatah well? Come?
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Maler Show,

(01:05):
we are in the air everywhere, just like next door neighbors,
except we don't complain. Well, we do complain, but not
about you. We don't complain about you. As we ride
the night together coast to coast, border to border in
beyond on the vast and utopianly powerful microphones of FSR

(01:29):
ammating live from the Twister as we twist words from
the Fox Sports Radio studios as approved by Reggie in Detroit.
And Reggie sends a lot of email to the podcast
that I do on the weekend. Also Yo Yo Ma Berry,
who put together that great Malard meet and greet that
we did. One of the people behind the meet and

(01:49):
greet we had there in Charleston, South Carolina, and he
lives there and he's trying to leave there as he
lets us know in the pot on the weekend as well.
And this of the Ben Maler Show made possible in
part by our friends at tire Iraq. For over forty years,
two generations, tire Iraq has been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what and where they drive, ship

(02:12):
fasted free back by free Roade hazard protection, with convenient
installation options like mobile tire installation tire iraq dot Com
the way the tire buying shure be so our lead
this hour is from Tinsul Town. We go to skid
Row in LA That is where Garden Marcus Smart was

(02:34):
welcomed to the team that wears purple and gold and
loves to talk about how great they used to be.
So Marcus Smart, who loved the Celtics so much that
he dyed his hair green and they sold cereal and
the grocery stores around Boston with his name on it.
So Marcus Mart crediting for recruiting him to LA. He

(03:00):
mentioned that as his introductory PEP rally news conference, as
he was welcome to the Lakers. He said, quote, when
you get a guy like Luca calling checking on you,
trying to see where you're at, to see if you
want to come join something special that they're trying to
cook up over here. Smart said, for him to say

(03:22):
that he can really use my help, that meant a lot,
said Marcus Smart. So of course we know that's buttering biscuits.
What about Lebron? Okay, So Marcus Smart was asked about that.
He said, quote, I have not talked to Lebron yet.
He said, Bron's a busy man. Quote continues, I'm going

(03:46):
to talk to him when I got when he's got time,
he said, when he's got time, all right, So let
us discuss the question Lebron James. This continues a trend.
Lebron not engaged with Marcus Smart, just like he was
not engaged with DeAndre Ayton who joined the Laker. So
these roster editions coming to LA and it's Luca that

(04:06):
has been mentioned, not not Lebron, So how does that
compute with you? So how does it compute? I've got Belagio,
flame broiled and ballpark Budweisers, and we'll connect all of
these things together and we're gonna play Connect three is

(04:26):
what we're gonna play. So again the question was, how
does it compute? Lebron not involved in this? So it
doesn't commute or compute, right, it just doesn't. And the
reason it doesn't is because Lebron is a guy who
has never ever my entire time doing you know, when
I was doing the website stuff years ago, Lebron was

(04:47):
a high school kid in Ohio. So I've fought I've
gotten the full, all inclusive Lebron experience behind microphones and
keyboards and all that stuff. But Lebron is a guy
who has never passed up a chance to take credit
for adding a player to a roster if he thinks
it's going to work. But now this off season, it

(05:10):
has been radio silence. The thing everyone in radio has
nightmares about Dead Air. Oh my god, there was a
second of Dead Air. Now King James in the cartoon
bubble in my head with this latest revelation from the
Book of Revelations for Marcus Smart, King James is over

(05:34):
at the Bellagio in Vegas. He's pulling the classic passive
aggressive card from the bottom of the deck. Now there
is internet video of Lebron hanging out with former La
TV personality Lauren Sanchez, who has never walked by a

(05:57):
plastic surgeon, apparently without getting a procedure done, and she's
apparently married to like the richest guy in the world.
But this video that it's I don't even know. I
don't know what's real and what's not. I don't know
if that's recent or that's old. But there's video of Lebron.
He's dancing and partying and there Lauren Sanchez is there.
Who knows anyway. So Lebron, wherever he's been, whether it's Cleveland, Miami,

(06:20):
back to Cleveland to the Lakers, has always been the
self appointed GM. He's always been that guy. He's also
been the part time motivational speaker. He's been the social
media pep rally person and suddenly now Lebron is silent.
The Lakers bring in Marcus Smart. Nothing. They bring in
DeAndre Ayton el zippo, el zippo crickets, not a tweet,

(06:44):
not even a wink, and not even one of those
like weird eyeball emoji things looking sideways. Didn't get one
of those. He's ghosting you and me. I'm fine with
that when it comes to these kind of moves. He's
apparently not teching, he's not calling. And Marcus Smart was
talking about Lebron's busy when he has time, because we
all know it takes a lot of time. You can't

(07:06):
multitask and be on a vacation in Europe and send
a text because Lebron he cannot. He cannot afford it's
more expensive, right, he cannot afford the cost involved in that,
cannot do it. And uh, of course the reason behind
all this, we know why, right, because deep down Lebron

(07:28):
is looking over at Luca and it's like, what is
going on? It's it's peb and j but just the
jay the jelly, right, Luca's getting all the love. It's
all about Luca, right, All the buzz is about Luca
and he's the new face of the Lakers, and they're

(07:49):
trying to suck up to Lucas. So he signs an
extension like he's gonna leave, please come on, and it's
gotta be eating Lebron alive. Right, It's this is the
first time in Lebron's career where everyone is not licking
his toes, and it's got to be bothering him. Right,

(08:09):
I'm doing psychobabble now, But why not. I have a
microphone and headphones. I can psychoanalyze Lebron James. So listen.
Luca's the new prom queen and Lebron was the old
prom queen. But now he's washed up and he's upset
by that. But if you break it down even more scientifically, right,
this is classic le drama, is what it is. Right.

(08:33):
When he loves a move, When Lebron loves a move,
he is front and center, beaming with pride, beaming with pride.
When he doesn't get his guy, what does he do?
He turns to Casper. Well, actually it was Casper's cousin,
also named Casper, the passive aggressive ghost. That's what he

(08:56):
is sulking, you know, it's his ego and all that stuff,
and I'll take my ball and go to South of France.
That's what I'm going to do, all right now. Secondly,
we move away from that story. We go now to
the report card because we love a good report card story.
Television ratings style. Is it true? Is it true that

(09:21):
the WNBA crashed and burned with their little protest the
their version of an All Star game? Apparently so so,
No Caitlin Clark, no problem. As Lee Corso likes to say,
not so fast, my friend, we have learned the WNBA

(09:42):
All Star Game drowned. Uh in the ratings. The game
with the ladies protesting was not a Baffosaco box office hit.
It was not. The WNBA lost thirty six percent of
their television audience year to year, thirty six percent of

(10:05):
their television audience without Kitlin Clark playing in the All
Star game where the ladies bitched about not getting enough money.
So what does that tell you? What does that tell you?
It is a massive number. I don't think you can
understate how big a number thirty six percent is year
to year and the WMB losing thirty six percent of

(10:28):
their TV audience without Kaitlin Clark playing in the All
Star Game. That is not a dip. I ride the dip,
you know, bet on the dip. It's not a blip,
not a dip. Not that not a chip. No, that
is not someone misplacing their remote controls and I don't

(10:49):
know where the remote is. What's around with that? This
is magic abrocod number poof. You lost one third of
your audience. Congratulations, ladies. One third of your audience vanished.
You're very impressive. What is that in real human beings?

(11:13):
According to the ratings, one point two million men, women,
and children, to be exact, said I got something bettered dough.
I ain't gonna watch that crap. Calen Clark's not playing.
I'm out one point two now. I did get a
kick out of the spin job from some loyalists, the

(11:35):
Wokesters in the in the media who are really propping
up the WNBA, And they're like, well, it's not that
big deal. I mean, you just having an agenda. You're
making this a political thing. It's not about being political, right,
And those that are saying it's not a big deal
are gaslighting, is what they're doing here. To use a comparison,

(11:57):
if if Apple lost thirty percent of their customers. They
sold thirty six percent less computers and iPhones year to year.
The person that runs Apple, Tim cook would not get cooked.
He would be flame broiled like a burger at a

(12:18):
fast food restaurant, all right, serve with a side of
shareholder lawsuits, and they would demand his head on a
platter after it's done in the flame broiler. That's reality.
So what is the lesson here? The lesson is it
tells you one thing and one thing only. It's a
story that we thought was true. But it's validation. It's

(12:40):
hot take validation, and we love hot take validation. We
do the WNBA without Caitlin Clark is voodoo. It's the
voodoo Bugaloo is what it is here. It is a mirage.
It is a hologram. That is what it is. And

(13:00):
it looks like Caitlin Clark is the Ace, the joker,
and the entire freaking deck is what she did if
one player, one player holds the entire league's ratings for ransom,
which is essentially what Kaitlyn Clark can do. Your foundation, well,
how can we discribe this? You're essentially building a skyscraper

(13:24):
on a ground made out of jello. Good luck, good
luck on that anyway. All right, now, final thought, we
go to baseball quickly. I thought this story was interesting.
We've gotten a lot of these stories recently, and I
imagine these stories are not going away anytime soon. We
go to Boston where Red Sox pitcher Lucas Giolito, a

(13:44):
journeyman pitcher in baseball. Lucas shi Alito said that he
is getting messages from very angry batters after every game.
They're very upset with Lucas Gioledo. So he took his
concern earns to the top of the food chain in
Major League Baseball. We are told this is from the

(14:06):
mouth of Lucasgiledo. He went straight to Commissioner Rob Manford
or we'd like to call Man fraud. And what do
you take away from this? What do you take away
from a random journeyman scrub pitcher for the Red Sox, Lucasgieledo,
going face to face, belly to belly with Rob Manfraud.

(14:28):
So my first thought here is that Lucas Jelido running
to the commissioner of Major League Baseball like a hall
monitor because a few degenerate gamblers are chirping away and
sending mean comments because he didn't pitch well enough in

(14:50):
a game or whatever. Seems like a tough look. It
just seems like a tough look. It's like people were
not nice to Let's call the commissioner up. Can you
imagine I'm not wired that maybe I should be wired
that way? There must be a flaw. I have people

(15:11):
send me some of the nastiest messages the other day.
You'll give you example. I did a rant about the
Redskins and the Indians' nicknames, and I pointed out that
many people want those names back and that the political
climate has changed. And so the email that I got
after that is just unhinged. Did I run to the

(15:37):
bosses here at Fox Sports Radio and say, you've got
to take care of this. I didn't. And the reason
I didn't is because I'm a grown up and I
can handle my own business. And I know there's just
a lot of fake tough guys out there keyboard warriors,
if you will. But if I said every time someone
on the internet hurt my feelings, they are my feelings, Yeah,

(16:02):
come on, give me a break. And that's what Lucas
Giolito's essentially. You know, it's not the only one. There's
a bunch of baseball players that are like this. He
just went to the commissioner. But spoiler alert, if you
work in baseball, I will give you some real talk.
Not to call a real talk because he stopped calling again,
but I will give you some real talk. Okay, this

(16:23):
is what you signed up for. It's not nineteen ninety five.
It's thirty years later, okay. And baseball in the year
twenty twenty five is essentially a gambling outfit. That is
what baseball is. You play in an organization that, for
better or worse, and listen, I'm a gambler. I love gambling.

(16:45):
I don't bet a lot, but I bet enough and
get a little bit of a rush out of it.
And I have a certain amount of money that I
can afford to lose and that's it. And when that
money's gone, I stop gambling. But for many people, they
can't stop gambling and they're addicted to it. And I
was chasing the next thing. They can try to get
their money back and all that, and I feel bad
for people, but that's anything. People are addicted to porn.

(17:09):
Should we get rid of porn?

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Right?

Speaker 1 (17:10):
People are addicted to sex? Should we get rid of sex.

Speaker 3 (17:12):
No.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
People are addicted to alcohol. Should we give it out? No?
And gambling's no. Did It's a vice. People get addicted
to it. But baseball's in bed with it, right? Does
he not watch game? Every time I watch one of
these games, I watch the game in the Blue Jay
game with the Yankees. I had that game on. I
flipped over. I was watching some of the Red Sox
Phillies game. Every time they go to commercial, there's a

(17:33):
gambling outfit that's an advertiser. They even do in game
parlays during baseball games. They've been doing that for a while.
They have sponsorship deals with just about every sports book
and anything with a pulse and a promo code. They're
in baseball. They are more worried about getting their fans

(17:55):
to gamble than they are about selling ballpark Budweisers. It's
at that point they plaster the odds on the screen
live betting. They do segments, as we said, during the games,
there are segments there. They put kiosks in stadiums so
you could it's more convenient for you to bet. Of course,

(18:15):
MT's bet on your phone. But you think fans are
not going to bet when baseball is asking the fans
to bet, and you think that they're gonna lose money.
The whole concept is most people that game will lose money.
Some will win, but most will lose. And they'll bet
over unders, on strikeouts. They'll bet every prop up your badanka, donk.

(18:36):
They're gonna bet it. And if you go out there
and suck at a time you cannot suck, they're gonna
call you on it. But I would think you better
grow a pair if you're gonna be in that business,
and you better be able to handle some trolls now
if they get violent, that's when you go to baseball security.
They're just sending nasty messages to you. Who cares block them,

(19:00):
mute them. I even have a novel idea. This is
gonna blow your mind. This is going to blow your
mind what I'm about to say. Put the phone down.
I said it. Put the phone down. For years I
did the show. We were on social media during the day.

(19:21):
I hardly ever go on during the day. I do
it for the show. I do it at night during
the show. I'm not on there. It's fake. It's the
matrix and all that stuff, but it's not mandatory. Certainly
if you're a baseball I gotta do it during the
show because of the show. But Lucas Gielito, no one's
listening to him talk. They can barely watch him pitch
without vomiting. So just stay off. It's not mandatory. You

(19:44):
don't have to click refresh on Instagram and look at
your messages. It's a deal you made. Now, Baseball made
their own deal. They made a Faustian bargain. Someone say
they made a deal with the devil, promoting gambling and
all that. I don't have a problem with it. Other
people do, But you don't go crying to the commissioner

(20:06):
and Rob Manford. You imagine Manford by sat there listening
to this nonsense, right, and he's, oh, yeah, I feel
bad for you. I feel bad for you, Lucas Giolito.
And then he walked into the room and started chuckling
and looking at all the endorsement money Baseball's making like
Scrooge McDucks like anyway, all right, it is the Ben
Maller Show. If you'd like to be part eight seven

(20:28):
seven ninety nine on Fox. That's eight seven seven nine
nine six six three six nine. Now it's a big
hour bits later this hour, we've got too much or
not enough. We need a contestant for that. We also
have a need for questions hashtag Queen of Hearts? Are
we still worried? People don't know how to spell queen

(20:50):
and hearts? We I don't know?

Speaker 4 (20:51):
I yes, the dyslexia runs rampant in the militia.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Should we change the hashtag lorena? Should we go to
like QO H or something? Change it to They don't
know English, they definitely don't know Spanish. But anyway, if
you can, if you're sober enough or somewhat educated enough
to know how to spell Queen of Hearts hashtag Queen
of Hearts. On x Lorrain has got her own segment
at the end of the hour, talking about it is

That is the question. What is the answer? Let's see
does anyone know the answer? Milkman, Mike and Colorado said,

Page down? And then tom Brady went on to become

(24:49):
the greatest quarterback of all time. Late night drug tester

sweaty pig and then proceeded to give him a clean towel.
All right, Uh, what do we have? Put him on

world to see, says our friend Alf the alien opinter.
Sir smokes a lot going with porky pig, as as

wingman Chris from Kentucky, says Tom Brady. He recommended a
yoga instructor, a great yoga instructor. All right, Lorena, do
you have an answer the mallord riddle of the day?

Speaker 4 (26:10):
Yes, I believe. Afterwards, he covered himself and in mud
and squealed like a piece.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Okay, well, very funny. It turns out former Patriots centater
Ted Carriss Tom Brady once literally pulled him off the
sidelines at your Led Stadium, screamed in his face that
he was a sweaty pig, and then pulled his pants
down and put baby powder on his toukis in front
of everyone in the stadium. Yeah, there's a there's a

(26:37):
thing Loraina called swamp ass that you get in the No. Yeah,
it's a problem, and oh so it's all yeah, kind
of imagine what that must be like. And it's more
of an issue in humid areas. Swamp ass And one
of the funniest things. I remember when Brady went to
Tampa on I think it was I don't know, I

(26:58):
don't know where it was. It was his podcast or somewhere,
but Brady did an interview and talked about how he
was going to come bat swamp ass playing for the Buccaneers.
We're a human in Tampa. Let's go to the phones.
Chris in Louisiana is up next, and then we'll get
to too much or down enough? Hello, Chris, Welcome And he.

Speaker 7 (27:15):
Mentioned two guys in my Rolldex, Carl Malone and Robert
Parris achieved for hailing from Louisiana. Man, we got to
get you down here to street Port, fifty cents from
over here.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Now, yeah, all right, I'm I'm down man. I would
love to go to Shreetport. Check it out. I've never
been there. I'd be all about it now. Carl Malone
actually lost a radio job to Carl Malone when he
played for We played for the I'll tell you how.
He played for the Utah Jazz at the time, and
there was a workstopage. This is on like the late nineties.
I was doing local radio. So Malone hired this agent

(27:47):
who was like a big marketing agent guy. So they
thought there would be this funny bit where Carl Malone
would do a radio show during the NBA lockout. I
think it was a lockout. I don't know, a striker
lockout whatever. So Malone's like, I'll do it, and then
it was only the workstoppers was only supposed to last
for a week, and it lasted for months, and Karl

(28:07):
Malone did the radio show for months and he was
so he was not good at radio, by the way,
I'll tell you that. Better better at basketball than radio.
But anyway, you didn't You didn't call about that, Chris,
what did you call about? Well?

Speaker 7 (28:20):
Check it out. So, actually I did an interview with
Carl's daughter. His daughter is now with basketball coach Ryl Bard.
She's in the Hall of Fame too, And so I
did an interview. I'm a TV sports director for the
CBS affiliate in Shreetport.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
Oh cool, there you go to actually.

Speaker 7 (28:36):
To your teammates for Upper Streeport, to Tim Brando and
Terry Bradshaw's I didn't interviews there you go.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
That's all right. I'm in man, make it happy you
you you know, Pete, you're a big shot man. You're
like the chamber of commerce there in Shreeport. Chris, I'm
in man.

Speaker 5 (28:50):
I'll be there so I grow up.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
Yeah, right, all right, now you're just now you're now
you've lost me. But thank you, Chris. I be safe
driving around there. But I appreciate that this Chris and Streetport.
I don't know what kind of crowd would get in Streetport.
You think the show would play in Streetport? You think
we do well there?

Speaker 8 (29:07):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (29:08):
You never know, Ben, you never know his list. I
think they might hide out in the darkness too.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
You know, we'll say we went to Vancouver. There are
a bunch of most of the people we met in Vancouver.
I never call the show. They don't really act with
the show.

Speaker 4 (29:20):
With the Vancouver peeps.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Yeah, our guys in Vancouver.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
Have a caesar for me.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
All right, Well, let's get to the Here we go,
hit that button. There another Ben Maller game. We've endured
too many of this? Is it too much or not
enough enough? Already? Let's do it. Here we go too
much or not enough? We welcome back a fan favorite.
He's been away for many, many months, our guy, Salsa, Hello, Salsa.

Speaker 9 (29:46):
Good evening, Big Ben.

Speaker 1 (29:48):
Where have you been? Where?

Speaker 9 (29:50):
I what's the quested? In my house for two months
doing an extensive deep clean and home reorganization.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Okay, you took too much months off from work or
you change jobs from work.

Speaker 9 (30:03):
I cleaned every corner, every window sill, every ball is
on the surface in my house.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
You must be a baller man. I can do that
in the weekend. I don't need two months. That's pretty impressive. Well, Scott,
I wonder what happened to Sauce. I'm glad you're out
there now. Salsa. You're like a chameleon saw. So we
remember when we saw you at the Mallard meet and greet.
You're you look so different than previous interactions that we've had.
Have you changed your appearance again? Are you now like
seven hundred pounds now? Have you gone the other direction?

(30:31):
Have you? No? No?

Speaker 9 (30:33):
What happens is I gain a little bit of weight
during football season and then it comes down. So I'm
ten pounds away from where I was when you last
saw me. Now you can be there next month?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
All right, Yeah, we are. We're going to do something
in Vegas, I am, and things are kind of clogged up.
There's some gridlock right now. Once the schedule gets cleared,
we'll get some dates on that, some Mallard greets and
all that. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (30:55):
For Sreeport, it's only a two hour drive from Dallas,
So you got the Louisiana crowd, Dallas crowd, and a
little bit of Arkansas that could come to street.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
All right.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
It was centrally located, very nice. Well, let's play the
game here. Our buddy Salsa who flies, he does fly
in the friendly skuys literally as he's been doing that
for many many years. Let's get to it. Here we
go too much or not enough? Gotta get three right
to win? Question number one, So Sho shots hit eighty
home runs through his first two seasons in the National League?

(31:26):
Is that too much or not enough for the Dodger
Too much? All right, Solsa says too much? No, he
has hit already eighty nine home runs through his first
two seasons in the NL. Only Mark McGuire had more,

(31:47):
and Otani still got some time this year. Dodgers suck,
but he's doing well knowed on my part. Yeah, bad
job by your question number two. Jose Ramirez, that's a
baseball player, and a pretty good one for the team
that used to be called the Indians. Just became the
third player this season with twenty plus home runs and

(32:07):
thirty plus stolen bases. Is that too much or not enough?

Speaker 9 (32:12):
I'm sorry, who, Jose Ramirez, Let's just gough not enough?

Speaker 1 (32:19):
All right, Salsa. Let's see here, right. It sounds like
a man that's been sequestered in his home for two
months and not listening. Jose Ramirez, the answer is too much.
He's the only player to reach those milestones so far
this season. You gotta get the last three right, Salsa,
or else you're cooked. Here we go. Question three for

(32:40):
our friend Solso. Rich Hill just made his debut for
the Royals on Tuesday. They are the fifth different team
he has played for since turning forty. Is that too
much or not enough? I'm sorry, who exactly? Great rich Hill?
Too much? He says, all right, let's find out to salsa.

(33:03):
Stay alive, well, s Alsa. That's almost more impressive than
getting them all right. You got them all wrong. You're
proving you did spend two months sequestered in your home.
The answer is not enough. The seventh different team that
Richel has played for at age forty or older. That
is the most of any player in the history of

(33:25):
the baseball. And I'll never forgive Dave Roberts for taking
Richell out. He was pitching a he was a no hitter,
and he took him out to save him, you know,
because that always works, always worked well. Well, Salsa. It's
graazy to hear your voice. I'm glad things I hope
things are going okay for you. It sounds like they are,
so we'll hang out. We'll definitely do it. A Mallard

(33:47):

Speaker 4 (35:47):
Dear Ry, you heard the man. It's time for love
here on the Ben Mallord Show. And you know, I
like to start it with a little bit of wisdom.
So if your lover, your partner, your person wants to
try something new, be open minded. Toys great.

Speaker 1 (36:08):
What if they want to try a different person, that's great.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
Just really sure you communicate that, and you know what,
your partner might get excited and be like, oh my gosh,
can I join in? Or can I watch this totally thing?
Do what you need to be freaks. Just stay together.
That's the point.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
All right, Well, we have questions, Laariya. I thought this
was amusing, so we'll start with this listener Jay Scoop
right since says, what should a guy do if his
wife disrespects and pisses off one of your very best friends,
and you know she was absolutely in the wrong asking
for a friend that's from Jay school.

Speaker 4 (36:46):
Oh you got to learn to laugh, and I think
that's what everyone will do, you know, It's just one
of those things. You're going to keep laughing for a
long time, hunger and be like, you have a good
sense of humor.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
Yeah, Lady Sidemurtens writes in says, how do I confront
my partner about their dragon breath? Wouldn't you think someone
named Lady Sideburns would have dragon breath?

Speaker 4 (37:06):
Also, I was gonna say, maybe you should take care
of your sideburns first before thinking about other people's business.
But at the same time, if you are in their
mouth all the time, that's really gross and you don't
want them to have bad breath. I dated this one
guy once. Oh my god, he had the worst breath
I've ever smelled on a person.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
You would have dealt with it if he had a
big bank.

Speaker 4 (37:24):
I would be like, Hey, I'm gonna go brush my teeth.
You want to come brush my brush our teeth together?
Oh yeah, just to encourage him to brush his teeth
a sign, and then I'd be like, when was the
last time you went to the dentist.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
Wow, don't laugh, buy's birthday? Mouthwash. You didn't make it
that long bit by those fishermen friends. What was up?
Cheff wow? BP rights and he says, hey, Lorena, can
a man ever escape the friend zone?

Speaker 4 (37:55):
Ah, it's all to escape.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
You can't. If you win the lottery, you can't.

Speaker 4 (38:02):
You technically, yeah, you can fight your way out of
the trenches.

Speaker 1 (38:05):
Yeah, for sure. We all know that.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
It's usually after someone dies, though, so like if their
regular husband died and you're still there after.

Speaker 1 (38:13):
Slide in, you slide in. They trust you because it's
on the big I don't do list, as you know,
but on big, on the big board, you move up. Yes,
it's like the minor league system.

Speaker 4 (38:22):
You could even be his best friend. You don't even
have to be her best friend. Who was that guy
the other day that called on?

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Oh, the guy from Mississippi.

Speaker 4 (38:31):
He's with his wife's girl.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
That's right. Yeah, And then she gave the approval. She said,
if I die, you can, you know, knock yourself up,
And he did.

Speaker 9 (38:38):
Teach.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
Let's say hello to raul N l Passo, who's calling in? Hello, Rol,
You're on the Queen of hearts with the rain.

Speaker 4 (38:49):
What's up?

Speaker 5 (38:50):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (38:52):
Is it wrong for me to think about other people
while we're in doing something and think about other women
while I've been married for twenty two years?

Speaker 4 (39:05):
Hey, it's a long run, man, you know, just like
sometimes you have to about think thinking of something that's
disturbing to keep going. Sometimes you have to think about
something you know that's not your person.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
And I don't know that I would advertise that to
the person who with And that's the.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
Problem, though, is when you know you're about to climax
and you stream the wrong name, So you got to make.

Speaker 1 (39:25):
Sure you definitely don't want to do that.

Speaker 7 (39:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (39:27):
Yeah, let's remember my my buddy Striker. He used to
has love line and he I think he was the
one wh would call it like this spanky sweet. Yeah,
he would. That's all right, Roll, You're fine as long
as you're you know, actually.

Speaker 4 (39:41):
I just don't say it out loud. Don't be like
I'm thinking about someone else right now, honey. Yeah, I
mean unless they're into that.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
Yeah, all right, thank you, Roe, I appreciate that. What
do we have? Andy? And Lionel Lake says, is it
awkward when your significant other gives a gift of lingerie.
The last time I went to Victoria's Secret, they would
not let me try anything on.

Speaker 8 (40:03):
This.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
Oscar de la Hoya, what's going on here?

Speaker 4 (40:08):
You can have another girl try it on for her
yellow uh.

Speaker 1 (40:12):
Ferg Dog says, how long should I date a girl
before bringing up that I'm a fan of sports radio.
I'll never never bring that up, fer Dog. That is
what women run for the hills when they hear that.

Speaker 4 (40:23):
I think you guys watch sports all the time. Is
already bad enough. Don't make it worse anything.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
Try to avoid that costs quick. JT. The Wingman says,
when my fiance returns from Wisconsin, is it wrong to
skip dinner? Go right to dessert, Loraina, Right

Speaker 4 (40:39):
To dessert, to dessert first, and after what we're going about,
and again and again
