Speaker 1 (00:00):
Knock, knock, who's there.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our birth three, our number three, and we react
to a marketing fail in the airline industry. Toss up
question worst move the Dallas Mavericks giving away Luka Donzig
or Southwest Airlines charging for bags and goofing on the
Dallas Mavericks. We'll talk about that. Also, the seventy six
(00:24):
Ers will be looking to trade Paul George by George
this offseason. What are the odds they find a partner
and what is your reaction to a longtime NBA executive
Darryl Mory revealing the seventy six ers use artificial intelligence
for input when they draft players or acquire players.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
We'll discuss that as well.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Also fifth hour podcast today, But right now here it
is our number three.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
You've got good.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Marketing, you've got bad marketing, and you have whatever.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
This is welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
In the beginning of another hour of the Benmathers Show.
We are in the air everywhere neighboring as we are,
burnt to a crisp coast, border to border and beyond
on the mast and wicked powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Am moinating live.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
From the piano the Dueling Piano Bar as we are
broadcasting live the tyrack dot com studios. Tyraq dot com
will help you get there and unmatched selection bass, free shipping,
pre road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in stars.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
I know Mark from Queens very excited about that.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Tyraq dot Com The Waytire Buying show b So lame
jokes coming up later this hour of the Comedy Club
will be open. You could argue that this story our
lead this hour is also part of lame jokes. It's
a bit of a pop culture story mixed in a
(02:08):
giant enigma. So an NBA team took some shrapnel, some
shrapnel from the airline industry. Try to explain this to you.
I'm gonna give you the thumbnail version of events. So
there's this airline called Southwest Airlines. They've been around for
a while and they decided they wanted to screw over
(02:29):
their customer base. And so, how could you screw over
your customer base? Why don't we change our bag policy?
And we've always had free bags and that's kind of
our thing, and so let's end that and we'll only
give it to preferred a list customers or people that
have our little credit card and you'll get the free bags. Previously,
(02:51):
anybody who bought a ticket got two free check bag
and that was a good deal, that was a perk,
that was what made them special. So they changed it,
and they're getting absolutely cooked. And in an effort to
try to deflect away some of the negativity, they decided
to use some comedy people.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Very upset.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Majority of the customers are not happy, as you would imagine,
and so the airline decided to somebody in their social
media wing, which is probably like some high school kid
or something, but some young punk to said, you know,
let's take a shot at the Dallas Mavericks and their
decision to trade Luca Doncik.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
They did this on social media. They sent out the.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Following zinger from the official Southwest Airlines account, a multi
billion dollar airline. They said, it's not like we traded Luca.
We've made updates to our bag policy and you're still
going to love flying with us. What hasn't changed, they say,
are our Southwest hospitality and you all know and love that.
(04:03):
They said, all right, so let us discuss toss up question.
Toss up question, you make the call worst move the
Mavericks giving away Luca Donzig or Southwest Airlines charging for bags?
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Worst move.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
All right, So I have Tom Petty Sharpie and Cya
not Cia. Cya will combine all these things together and
we are going to make a giant headache, which if
you fly Southwest Airlines regularly, you like to know about.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
The whole headache things. So, first of all, this is
not even close.
Speaker 2 (04:41):
Now, the Luca Donzig trade was basketball malpractice, right, It
wasn't the trade. It was a giveaway that was strategic incompetence.
It was malfeasance, is what it was by the Dallas
basketball team. It was so terrible that it makes you
think there's some kind of cabal, deep state conspira involving
(05:02):
the league office, Adam Silver, big television deals.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
In a smoke field room. It's that bad.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
That said side by side the Luca trade versus Southwest
Airlines deciding to charge for bags. The arrow is clearly
pointing right there at Southwest Airlines. Because you see, not
everyone watches basketball, not everyone loves sports.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
They don't have the sports sheen like we have.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
But pretty much every man, woman, and even child at
some point has to travel to see relatives or you're
going on vacation. So this is a self inflicted wound,
and it reminds me of how tone deaf you can be.
And it also channeled this Tom Petty song from back
(05:53):
in the day called the Last Last DJ Song was
actually supposedly a tribute song to the great DJ Jim Ladd,
who was an LA DJ legend on the LA Radio
doll And so Tom Petty was a radio listener and
he wrote this song They're all gone now but the
Last DJ, And it was about the crap that was
(06:14):
going on in.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
The radio business.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
And one of the lines in there really resonated as
a lifetime radio nerd, and it was that all the
boys upstairs want to see is how much you'll pay
for what you used to get for free. And as
a general rule in business, if you charge the customer
for something that was once free, people will no longer
(06:39):
use the product. That's just a general rule. Like I'll
give you an example. I used to be a daily
reader of the New York Post. He used to read
the New York Post every day. They now have a paywall.
I stopped reading it. I don't read it because it
was free, and now they're tried, so good luck. I
hope other people pay for it.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
I ain't paying for it.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
I'll go find the content somewhere else. If you charge
people for something that was once free, people stop using it.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Is the most.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Basic rule of business. And the Mavericks obviously people upset.
They're gonna lose fans. And there'll be other basketball players
that come along, and there'll be some good ones and.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Some bad ones and all that. But again, not everyone
likes basketball.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
The reason that so many people fly Southwest airlines was because, hey,
it's not the greatest airline, the planes aren't the newest,
but you get.
Speaker 1 (07:28):
The free bags, save some bucks.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's not like the ticket prices are all that much lower,
or there even any lower at all. They're very competitive
the airline prices, and so my experience flying around is
that many of the other airlines have better planes, and
if you're gonna be paying the same amount, why would
you fly with Southwest?
Speaker 1 (07:47):
All right? Now?
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Secondly, to fill Hadelphia, we go the city of bad
basketball and good football.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
So after the season there circling the drain.
Speaker 2 (07:59):
This season in the pro bouncy ball team in Philadelphia,
we're now hearing the seventy six ers will be looking
to trade Paul George by George this offseason. So what
are the odds? First look, what are the odds that
the Philadelphia basketball team is able to find a.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
Partner for the ex Clipper Paul George.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
So I have the Malord sportsbook odds at plus seven hundred.
Now that implies if you're bad with matth, that implies
a little over twelve percent. Yes, about twelve and a
half percent chance they find a trade partner. Here's why.
Paul George at this point is a brand ambassador for Sharpie. Okay,
(08:44):
he's got so many black marks near his name. He
is a shell of what he had been in his
salad days. He's a consulting doctors right now on options.
He's got a groin injury and a knee injury. Surgery
on both possible. Paul George also has one hundred and
sixty million dollars left on his contract, which wouldn't be
(09:07):
a problem if he was still good. Spoiler alert, he sucks.
He's passed is used by date. He's under contract till
he's aged thirty seven. Now, he does have a player option.
The way he's playing, there is no way he doesn't
play that player option because no one else is going
to give him that kind of money, and he seems
to be more worried about his fledgling podcast than his
(09:28):
jump shot.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
And so the way this would work all of that,
how how.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Is the Philadelphia basketball team going to be able to
trade Paul George?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
The greater fool theory.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
The greater fool theory, so players are traded from one
fool that'd be the original team to a greater fool
at an increase price, until eventually the jig is up.
You cannot find a greater fool, the value plummets, and
then that's it. And so that's where we are. Are
(10:02):
we at the end of the greater fool theory? How
lucky are the Golden State wars? I watched a little
bit of the Warriors game against Sacramento last night, and
Golden State was all horny to get Paul George.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
They wanted Paul George.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
The Clippers would not trade Paul George to Golden State,
which is in hindsight, they should have done, because he
sucks and you could have completely screwed Golden State, So
bad job by the Clips. They could have a sign
and trade and dropped that albatross in the Bay Area.
But nonetheless, good luck Paul George Philadelphia. They've had some
other things. My final fought here the seventy six Ers
(10:38):
team president Darryl Moury, who somehow kept his job when
he was involved in the whole great China Hong Kong
situation remember years ago.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
And that was quite the glorious NBA story. But anyway,
so seventy six Ers team president Darryl Mory.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Does anyone get more love from basketball writers than Daryl Mory?
I mean, these guys are they give him a tongue bath.
They give Daryl moriy a tongue bath. The nerdy basketball
writer loves Daryl Morriy. So Daryl Morray said he absolutely
gives AI and large language models a vote in all
(11:24):
of his decision making processes with the seventy six ers.
He said something called he said this to the Pablo
Torre podcast.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
I have no idea who that is or what that is.
He said.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
We absolutely use models as a vote in any decision
Maury said, regarding like draft picks and roster moves. So question,
what is your reaction to longtime NBA executive Daryl Moray
revealing the seventy six ers use artificial intelligence on team
(11:56):
decisions that they get a vote in team to dec
so my initial thought is wowser's It's one thing to
google something, right, but to weigh that in the process.
It's like you've got five people voting, four human beings
and then you've got AI. So that means AI. Conceivably,
(12:17):
if it's a deadlock two two.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Human being human being, then you've got AI deciding what
you're gonna do. Yikes.
Speaker 2 (12:25):
Now, I will tell you this is not a good
endorsement of artificial intelligence. Daryl Moriy with AI has assembled
an overpriced honeywagon of a team. If you don't know
what a honeywagon is, bad job by you. It's unwatchable.
Direk is what it is. And again basketball scribes the
(12:47):
Darryl Moray has them eating out of the palm of
his hand. I don't know how to say it now.
My theory is that one of the.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Main reasons Darryl Morray uses the artificial intelligence is because
of CYA, not CIA. CYA ergo cover your ass. It's
job security.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
You can look out for the best interest of yourself,
meaning you passed the womb and I worked in the
radio world, and in my world, I don't know so
much anymore. But they used to have these things called consultants,
and consultants were a way for the people that were
programming the radio station to keep their job because if
they made a decision to make a change and then
(13:28):
the change didn't work out, they could say, well, it
wasn't it my decision. I just listened to the consultant,
So it's theirful. It's passing the buck, is what it is.
You're passing the buck to somebody else. But if AI
not Alan iverson, but if artificial intelligence gets a vote,
Darryl Mories sounds like he's he's on the cutting edge,
you know, a way to go and all that, but
(13:50):
it gives him plausible deniability, and you always want to
have that plausible deniability.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
What me, it was the AI.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
You know, it's the algorithm that's the problem, and you
gotta have someone to blame, and that's the deal, and
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. It is the Ben
Malor show. We have no no artificial intelligence. People that
listen to the show tell me we have no intelligence
on this show at all, but we are here. It
(14:17):
is it is a show.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
The Ben Mallor Show is a show, and we'll take
your phone calls. We'll reset.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
We have a bunch of lines. Open at eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox. That's eight seven seven nine
nine six six three sixty nine. Also on X at
Ben Mahlor that is at Ben.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
Mahlor if you'd like to be part of the program.
Time now for the Malor Riddle of the Day. And
this is one of my more enjoyable riddles of the day.
So we're heading into the final few days of conference
tournament week, and then on Sunday there'll be this thing
called Selection Sunday, and then we'll know all the teams,
(14:57):
and every gas bag and blowhard will suddenly become a
college basketball.
Speaker 2 (15:01):
Expert, and for one week everyone will be talking about
college basketball. It'll be the most glorious thing in the world.
And then we'll all forget about it. We'll all just
pretend it didn't happen. With that being said, here's the
Mallor Riddle of the day. You can answer this on
AX at Ben Mallard that's at Ben Maller. But here's
the riddle of the day. By you basketball star, I
(15:24):
say that in your quotes Richie Sanders, doesn't that sound
like a fake name? Richie Sanders great grandfather invented blank
again BYU hoopstar Richie Sanders great grandfather invented blank. That
is the Malor riddle of the day. The answer, We'll
(15:46):
get to it and we will do it.

say hello at Ben malor Lorraine a the FSR tech queen,
(16:58):
big fan of the state of Ohio and love you
Ohio Google oop uh, Bronco fan, say hello, have your
voice heard your comments? Can and we'll be used against
you in the court of hot sports takes in sports radio.
And now back to Benny Blabermount. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, YadA,
(17:19):
YadA YadA. I heard Bill mention Lorena in Ohio, and
I did get several angry emails from people that live
in the great state of Ohio who were upset that Lorena.
I believe what was the term you used there, Lorena.
Uh you described some kind.
Speaker 4 (17:35):
Of I don't know, but all I can remember is
the strippers. I feel bad I offended the strippers. I
love strippers. Okay, everything I.
Speaker 5 (17:42):
Say in the moment is you know, it's on the tone.
Speaker 4 (17:45):
I love my strippers. Okay, Well, shout out to the
strippers in Ohio.
Speaker 2 (17:49):
No, no, no, you do not do not walk that back.
That was a hot take on the strippers. There used
to be some we had strippers that would call the
show real and so it was very odd.
Speaker 5 (18:00):
Know, lovely strippers.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
Well, there's one that there's one that's got spider webs
on our boobs, and I really, really I appreciate her.

It's a little much. Well it's a little much. But
there's some there's there's a good and ugly. You know,
there's a there's nice, there's ugly, there's beautiful. That takes
all kinds.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
And if you really want to see ugly strippers, go
during the day to a strip club. That is, go
to the ballet during the day, that's where because at
prime time that's where the big stars come out. But
during the day, generally speaking, that's not.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Would you be down to do an amateur night, Ben?
Speaker 1 (18:35):
What do you what do you get?
Speaker 5 (18:36):
You get to get on the poll and be an
amateur stripper?
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Well, I could judge it. I don't know that I
would be the one. I don't think anyone wants to
see that. I don't know that that's the content that
anyone wants. That people could have heart attacks and I
don't want that. That would be a nightmare, uh for
the people of the strip club. John, I'm gonna hopefully
I'll meet him, we'll do the Ohio. Am I getting
in trouble now because of what you said about Ohio
when I go to Ohio, don't know.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Fun fact, fun fact, fun fact, I said, fun fact.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
Fun fact.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
The tater tot was developed in nineteen fifty three by
the Oorida Company, Frozen Food Company and the founders of
that comming. I believe Golden.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Greg f Nephie Gregg and Ross Aaron Butler Senior were
coming up with the the recipe, but the the tater talk.
So congratulations if you've got nobody nobody got that right,
But just think of it. I mean, if you lived
before nineteen fifty three, you did not have the delicious
(25:03):
tater tot.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
I mean, my god, do you have a favorite place
to get a tater tot?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Why are you? Why are you talking like you're covering
your mouth. I don't I don't understand that. I don't.
Speaker 4 (25:15):
Well, I actually, you know, like when you put the
thingies around your mouth like this, you can put your
hands around your mouth like a cup it.
Speaker 6 (25:20):
That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 5 (25:22):
I thought it'd be a more direct sound.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
I understand.
Speaker 5 (25:24):
Anyway, where do you get your tater tots from? Where's
your favorite place?
Speaker 1 (25:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
I don't usually get them. Well, no, I mean I
usually get them in the frozen food section at the store.
Speaker 5 (25:34):
Yeah, p tater tots.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
Oh, if you put them in the air fryer, they're fine.
You put oil on top. Typically where I have the
cheesy tots, well.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
You put cheese on top of them when you're it's
not that hard. I mean, if you get a little cheese,
I can teach you if you want.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
It's a it's a really complicated recipe. You heat up
the tater tots and then with about a minute to go,
you put a little cheese on and then cheese melts,
and all of a sudden you have cheesy tater tots.
Wild concept.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
That's a little more work because you gotta cook the
chili and you gotta do that separately.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
And then but they the conversion.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
It's like the confluence in Pittsburgh, right, you know, you
put everything together there and it forms the mighty Ohio
River in Pittsburgh. Well, you put the chili, you put
the cheese, and then you put the tater tots together,
and that's the.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
Food confluence, is what that is. So have you ever
been to Pittsburgh? No, you have, not, no cool city have.
Speaker 2 (26:30):
So they got the Mahangahila and the Alleghany and then
they get together and they have a baby, and then
the baby's the Ohio River right there. The baby's the
conception takes place right there in Pittsburgh and there's all
these like cool.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Bridges and stuff. Yeah, all right, that's the sound of
the Ohio River. Being born. Yeah, yeah, all right.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
Anyway, we'll take some calls. We do have lame jokes
of the week coming up here in a moment. Let's
say hello to any meaning mind. Let's go to Tony
in the Bay Area. Hello, Tony. Welcome Tony, Tony. Tony's
going all right to say aload to hollering James in Minnesota.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
James. Hey, you're on the James.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
You're on the radio, James, hollering James, wake your wake
your fat ass up, Jim, you're on the radio. Come on, James, James,
if you wake up right now, I'll go back to
the mermaid.
Speaker 1 (28:34):

there you go.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
James was so excited by that Mallard monologue about the
NBA that he he passed out right, there is wheat.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Man there by the way for the lame jokes that
we have him. Yeah, I don't think so hold on
all right.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Thomas writes in he says, us ages do call Jimbo
Jumbo or jim Bob. I chuckled when what's her face?
Said Jumbo Fisher. That's from Thomas. Thomas appreciated that that
was hilarious. When when Jimbo went on that rant, it
was so good. Alf says, we love a fun fact
(29:18):
about the Tater Tots. They enjoyed that. Ryan says, expanding
on the riddle of the day, how many wives did
we did he have? There you go, and Ryan says,
we are all waiting to see Loraine. I guess they
want to see you as a stripper, Lorraina, and they
would like to see that. Ferg Duck says, unlike Southwest,
if you started charging to listen, we'd be okay.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
With it then. Really, so if I started like what
do don't some of the other guys here have like
a paywall what's it called where you have to pay
to listen to him? Do they? I think so?

very special paywall.

We don't do any I know we need to.
Speaker 4 (30:16):
Yeah, I don't know that they're going on podcasts, so
we don't even know the name of How does that
make sense?
Speaker 1 (30:22):
I don't know. Well, because there's a lot of dumb
people that are in marketing and PR and they think
to take they don't realize that ninety eight percent of
podcasts no one's listening to, right. It's like everyone thinks
is kind of cool, but they have no audience exactly,
you guys, Yeah, I mean there's actually there's more people
listening to me right now than you know these ninety
eight percent of these podcasts, And but people don't understand
(30:45):
the concept. They're like, well, it's cool, it's soon, it's
cool and all that. Not so much anyway. It is
