Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our numb Berth three, our three original Recipe podcast,
Don't Forget Benny Versus depending now. It will not air today,
but I will be recording the TV show later today.
It'll start airing tomorrow. We look forward to that. But
here in our number three of the original Recipe podcast,
(00:22):
our former FSR morning host Stephen A. Smith is said
to be looking for one hundred million dollars his contract's
coming up. How do you dissect that? Also, we'll talk
a little bit about the weather snaffoo in baseball and
a Yankee broadcaster losing his mind. If you will, we'll
(00:44):
go there as well. All of it coming away right now.
It's our number three. Are we about to have another
one hundred million dollar media blowhard? Well come in beginning
of another hour of the Ben Malors Show. We are
(01:05):
in the air everywhere inhabitants, as we say, use your
vocal cords coast to coast, border, the border and beyond.
On the mast and outrageously powerful microphones of fs are
am monating live from the Dash, the Nocturnal Mad Dash.
(01:30):
We are broadcasting live from the ti Raq dot com studios.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Tyraq dot com will help you get there.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
An unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection,
and over ten thousand recommended installers. I know our guy
Kai from the Bay like set number ten thousand tiraq
dot com the way tire buying should be. So I
(01:57):
was not playing on talking about this, but several of
you sent me the story. You know, I have a
history with this gentleman in terms of working to not
together at per Se, but at the same company. So
our lead this hour is from the media, a musings
department of the NFL, or it really is sports media.
(02:17):
It's mostly the NFL, but it's sports media. So Tom
Brady got three hundred and fifty million from Fox, and
he's been pretty mediocre so far. I think we can
all agree on that. So I bring this up because
a former FSR morning host has made some headlines this week.
A guy that did our morning show for a couple
(02:38):
of years, stephen A Smith, I worked here. You probably
don't know that because nobody really listens to a show
when he worked here. But stephen A was our morning
guy for a while and his contract is up. I
know you're very worried about his finances in twenty twenty
five and he's gonna be a free agent.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
So the only reason I bring this up. He's making
the rounds.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
He was on a podcast hosted by political pundit Chris Wallace.
Why because everyone's got a even I have a podcast.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
I have two of them.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
So during a recent appearance with political pundit Chris Wallace,
stephen A responded to whispers that he's looking for a
one hundred million dollar contract in his next deal.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Now what did he say? Well, rather than me tell
you what he said, let's go to the audio tape.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Bird on the street. Is that you want something in
the range of one hundred million dollars for five years.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Right?
Speaker 2 (03:36):
True.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
I'm not getting specific as it pertains to numbers, because
only a fool discusses his own negotiations. While negotiating, I
would ask, respectfully, pay attention to the industry. See what
people are getting paid, See how much money they're making,
and what they're bringing to the table. Dak Prescott just
signed a contract for two hundred and forty million dollars.
(03:57):
He's making sixty million a year. He made sure it again.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
You know, here's the quarterback of the Dallas Combo.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Who has won two playoff games. In eight years. I've
been number one for twelve. I'm sorry. In our respective industries,
I win and I'm fully aware of what I'm worth,
and I will never apologize to that for anybody.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
All Right, how do you really feel? All right?
Speaker 2 (04:21):
So let us discuss the question. You heard it right there,
our former morning guy, stephen A. Smith, seeking one hundred
million dollars minimum. So how do you dissect what you
just heard? So I've got algebra, shredded chicken, and hamlet,
and we will combine all of these things together and
(04:42):
we'll eventually open up the box.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
What's in the box?
Speaker 2 (04:45):
We'll find out later this hour what's in the box.
I know you're excited. I don't know what's in the box.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
I have no idea. It looks like it might be food,
but I don't know. All right, So, first of.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
All, stephen A really lacking self com confidence, needs more bravado,
doesn't think he's a God's gift to the world at all,
needs more machismo and all that. But that even by
his standards, that's a lot of hutzbuf. Comparing yourself to
(05:15):
Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboy quarterback.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
But you know, one hundred million dollars.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
I say, based on my experience with Steven A, he
needs one hundred million just to pay for all the
twenty four hour day goon security guys that he has
following him around. He's so paranoid, got a lot of
security guys and big big guns and private planes and
all that.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So those private jets aren't cheap. So he needs the money.
But you're not in all seriousness.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
You're not going to get me to sit behind a
microphone as a fellow blowharden and sit here and say
that someone in sports media should not get paid a
fair amount of money. But if you want to go
by that, compare our salaries, well, okay, I think your.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Way out in front. But we're all worth whatever someone
is willing to pay us.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
In the case of Stephen A, I know that the
Mickey Mouse operation over there in Bristol can afford to
pay him. They have tons of cash, they have endless
amounts of resources. They can afford whatever his heart desires.
Now that said, based on the sticker price, the sticker shock,
(06:29):
If you will, you want to talk about what do
you actually contribute and what do any of us contribute?
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Right when you think about it. I mean, we're sitting
here talking about sports. We're not exactly changing the world
in any way, right, But the Mickey Mouse being counters,
the Goofy being counters are going to have to do
some algebra. And is it the chicken or is it
the egg?
Speaker 2 (06:54):
The chicken or the egg? Meaning very simply, is stephen
A the reason that the rats a high? Or is
it the grand stage that he's on?
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Now?
Speaker 2 (07:04):
To rephrase that, I can't get over the fact that
stephen A had worked at ESPN for a number of
years he was let go and then he came here
worked for us, and he had been a big star
and had a lot of supposed cache. He did a
show with Skip Bayless and the audience didn't follow him.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
It just didn't work out.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
When he worked here. It never got big ratings. So
have things changed or is it just the fact that
he happens to be on there and he's loud and
people know you, they know who he is and all that,
but it didn't really resonate when he left, all right. Now,
Secondly to the atl we'll talk some baseball here and
whether who's to blame play the blame game, Who's to
(07:53):
blame the Mets Braves. A massive matchup this week in baseball,
determined playoff seating and making the playoffs. The Mets of
the Braves. Everything's been disrupted by the hurricane that's shimming
through the South. So the answer is, who's to blame.
(08:14):
The buck stops with Rob Manford, period stop. Rob Manford,
the commissioner of Major League Baseball, the clown show commissioner
of Baseball, Rob Manford and the people around him. Instead
of being proactive, they were reactive, right, and they were
out there twiddling their thumbs, playing Tiddley Winks and all that.
(08:35):
They have this thing called DoPT the radar. It's an
amazing development, and they can track the storms. And they
knew roughly five days ago that that storm was heading
towards Atlanta, that hurricane, right, they knew it. The track
of the hurricane. Now, these things changed, but they had
(08:55):
no contingency plan.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
None.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
And if only they had a real commissioner in baseball
who was doing something other than protecting the cheating astros
and also might I add putting ghost runners in baseball.
If they had a real commissioner, right, here's what you do.
The Mets were off on Monday. The Braves were off
on Monday. You could have had the Mets and the
(09:19):
Braves play a game on Monday, so that would have
taken care of one of the games. You then could
have moved the game up yesterday on Wednesday and afternoon
the game and you would have gotten possibly all of
the games in. But they never did that.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Why.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
My theory is, it's too much of an inconvenience, it's
a hassle, and they didn't want to deal with it.
So they're like, well, maybe the storm will shift and
it won't come right through Atlanta right near the suburbs
there where the ballpark is, and we'll be all right.
And of course that's not what happened. And so so
now that means that it's highly improbable this series does
(09:58):
not have a Monday Day matchup. There's not there's gonna
be a double header on Monday. I don't see a
scenario where there's not a double header on Monday. And
that means whoever actually ends up winning and both of
them might make the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Arizona is also in intention.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
So it's conceivable that they both make the playoffs, but
whoever ends up winning on Monday the double header. It
doesn't matter even both they're going to have shredded chicken
in terms of pitching because the season ends on a
Monday for them, and then boom, they'll have like a
day or two off and then right back at it,
(10:34):
probably only one day, and then.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
Right back at it as the baseball playoffs keep going.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
All right, final thought, we have a neurotic Major League
Baseball broadcaster. That would be Michael Okay. Michael Okay the
voice of the New York Yankees on the Yes Network.
So Michael Okay does a radio show in New York,
so he's multitasking make that money, and it is a
(10:59):
I've been told I don't live in New York, but
I've been told there's a constant theme that Michael Okay
is just an apologist for the Yankees, that he's just
repeating the dogma that he has told from the Yankees.
And this is driving Michae Okay into the looney bind.
Now what do I mean by that? Michael kay has
(11:21):
offered his radio listeners, as he says, mouth breathing low lifes,
ten thousand dollars cash money if they can show proof
that he is a Yankee apologist who's taking orders from
Brian Cashman.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
So how does this one look to you?
Speaker 2 (11:43):
So on this one I have the great William Shakespeare
Hamlet is what I have on this And.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Mike tell you is the gas bag doc protest? Too much?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Me thinks right out of Hamlet he knew about gas
bags and Hamlet he did. Anyway, Michael Okay is asking
for proof. He wants actual evidence from the last two months,
so last two months that he's being told what to
say by Brian Cashman.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
He says he has not had any interaction with the.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
Yankee GM, hasn't walked by him, hasn't said hello to him,
no text, no email. And he says he needs phone
conversation records, he needs any kind of digital paper trail,
and then he'll give you ten thousand. So this, of
course is what's known as the impossible wager. And it's
(12:43):
a good radio bit because I fell for it. But
outside of having subpoena power and being able to go
over the phone records of Brian Cashman and Mike Okay,
there's no way, there is zero chance, zero chance come
up with the kind of proof that would be needed. Now, Also,
(13:04):
might I add it's obvious that as the voice of
the Yankees. We all know as adults here, when you
work for a team and you're a play by play
announcer for.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
A team, you're on the take.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
That's just the way it is, and it's always been
that way, and it's not going to change anytime in
my life. Michael kay is expected to be a brand
ambassador for the Yankees, and he is a paid mouthpiece.
He cannot besmirch the Yankees, althoughwise he won't be the
play by play voice of the Yankees period.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Stop. Every man, woman and child knows this to be true.
It's just the way it is.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
All right, is the Ben Mahlor Show. If you would
like to comment on any of that, you can join
us right now. Speak easy rules are not in effect.

(18:05):
the mallor riddle of the day again for those of
you a little late to the party. Big college football
game this weekend. Former President Donald Trump has requested blank
to eat while he attends the Georgia Alabama game.
Speaker 6 (18:19):
He has requested a Fat Hot Chick sandwich. The chicken
sandwich from Fat salas.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Oh that's the fat. The Texas barbecue is out there.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
Now there's a fat hot chicks in really chicken seace.
I only eat the fat Texas barbecue. I'm with you,
and I have bacon and you do not.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
All right, Uh well, this interirect the correct answer. Former
President Donald Trump requested two fish file of fish sandwiches
with cheese from McDonald's Stadium hot Dogs, Domino's Pizza, and
a diet coke.
Speaker 1 (18:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:54):
Now, I don't like I don't like seafood. But when
I do eat seafood, I'm not eating the fileo fish sandwich.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
I've never had one. Listen. I had one when I
was younger, and I love the filet.
Speaker 5 (19:06):
About like adding extra tartar sauce, and I add pickles
as well.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Oh god, disgust.
Speaker 5 (19:14):
And they make it fresh. If you say make it fresh,
so you don't get old fish, you get nice, crispy, tender,
delicious fish.
Speaker 1 (19:20):
And is there actual fish in the and it's so flaky?
Are you sure about that?
Speaker 5 (19:25):
The chicken, I'm not sure if it's chicken, but I
know the fish is fish.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
That's not true. How do you know that?
Speaker 5 (19:29):
Because that's flaky like a fish, well, they can make
it in a lab like that. No, I don't think so.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Just like I've never met anyone that loves the I
guess Trump loves it, but you love it too, I do.
Speaker 5 (19:40):
But my guess for Trump was going to be seven
hot dogs. So I thought he was just well.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
He did say stadium hot dogs. Do they have good
hot dogs in the Southeastern Congress? I don't know, but
dear God, it's good. And then he wanted a Domino's pizza.
You know what, there's there's several different types of pizza Dominoes.
Do we know what type of pizza? It didn't say
in the story what type.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
Of pizza I prefer about?
Speaker 1 (20:01):
You, Ben Well, I like a thick, bubbly crust.
Speaker 5 (20:04):
I like the crust, the garlic butter on the edge
of it too.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
I do so good man a pizza, oh man.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
And the funny when I started a couple of years back,
I started cooking, and I make pizza. I don't have
a pizza oven, but I was trying to figure out
how to make bubble the crust.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
So it's all bubbling up.
Speaker 2 (20:24):
Right, And you go to Google and they were all like, well, no,
you're not supposed to eat it like that. You know,
there's ways not to get the crust to.
Speaker 5 (20:31):
You're supposed to not want it that way.
Speaker 2 (20:32):
But that's the way I like it. So I'm like,
well that's what I want and I like it. Yeah,
all right, let's say hello to oh boy, let's go
to Jerome in Charleston. Bring it home, Jerome, Hello, Jerome, welcome, Like,
(20:54):
calm down, Calm down, Calm down, you're all worked up.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Calm down. A lot of people like porn stars.
Speaker 7 (21:01):
Yes, don't tell him what don't tell him? This is okay,
don't tell them missus Trump number three.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
All right, Jerome was triggered. Calm down, Jerome, I'm down,
all right. It was just it was just a bit
on the show, Jerome, That's.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
All it was.
Speaker 2 (21:14):
I know your your TDS has been sugged, but calm down,
that's all right.
Speaker 7 (21:17):
I was gonna say he likes some dogs or from tests,
but ain't. But that's just man.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
You are all worth it. You're worthy man.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
By the way, that guy in uh we about this
guy we about just got from the from the jag
wires all there, stole like twenty two million dollars. He
only got like six years and because you know that, Wow,
there stole that kind of money. No one would ever
(21:46):
see old Jerome ever again. Okay, twenty two million dollars
and ain't nobody on Fox talk about it.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
CBS and the Alright, we talked about we talked about
the store, We talked about it. When, like when I
did two monologue on it, you go back to the
archive and look I did to.
Speaker 7 (22:02):
Twenty two million dollars and nobody knows about and yet
their owner some kind of genius, right are you?
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Well?
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Apparently not. Have you seen Trevor Lawrence play football?
Speaker 7 (22:14):
Hey, I walk about him. I called up Rose that
a week or two of Gold before it played Buffalo
and asked himself, who's gonna be the next coach? Then
you said John Gruden? Yeah right, yeah, John Grude, Yeah,
a grand dragon. They're going to put him back in
the NFL, and he's he's.
Speaker 1 (22:32):
A grand Jet dragon, right. Really?
Speaker 2 (22:34):
How come all the how the people that he coached
like him and they want him back in the NFL?
Speaker 1 (22:39):
Why is that? And they're they're not all white guys,
So what's up with that?
Speaker 7 (22:41):
I believe I'll believe it when I see it.
Speaker 2 (22:45):
By the way, well, how come, how come Brian Brian
Flores in the f he's suing the NFL and he's
coaching in the NFL.
Speaker 7 (22:53):
Look, I don't know anything.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
I'm not I'm not with no, but but wouldn't you agree?
Speaker 2 (22:58):
Like the argument against Gruden is he Gruden he cannot
be in the NFL because he's suing the NFL. But
because but Brian Flores is in the NFL.
Speaker 7 (23:07):
Do you know what he said about Damar Smith? Did
you hear about all of that?
Speaker 1 (23:11):
I saw, I read it, Yes, I saw.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
By the way, I just want to congratulate Tom Brady
on that uh on that pitty pat interview he did
with album does bump them? Or who beat up a
guy in the elevator for no reason? I heard he
had to feel like a ten million dollars tetlement and
also one hundred thousand dollars?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
And how's the therapy going for you? Everything? It sounds
like it's really working the therapy.
Speaker 7 (23:39):
Does I get to talk to you?
Speaker 1 (23:40):
Yeah? All right? Who else?
Speaker 7 (23:43):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Wait?
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Wait wait wait, you didn't hold on a sec You
didn't complain Stephen A.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Smith wants a hundred million dollars. You don't have a
problem with that.
Speaker 7 (23:51):
Yeah, he deserves one hundred million dollars like I deserve.
Speaker 1 (23:56):
I knew you'd be upset with WMB.
Speaker 7 (23:59):
Just take on the road. Not ten million this year,
fifty million. Thank you, Caitlin, Thank you for all you've
done for the WNBA and all you WNBA fans out there.
Do you know who you are?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
All right? Are you done? Is that it?
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Yeah? I felt all right?
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Good, all right, go to bed, all right, thank you?
It's Jerome and Charleston hauls up and rains like a
lunatic and then hangs up and we'll talk to him
next week or maybe tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Who knows, no idea, no idea? All right?
Speaker 7 (24:33):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Super Marcus Steve says, as a fan of the Office,
how do you not know that Michael Scott loves the
filet of Fish Sandwich? Well, A, that show hasn't been
on in years, and b I haven't watched it in years,
so it wasn't in the front of my mind there.
So what do you want me to do, supermarket Steed?
(24:54):
You want me to any reference? I have to make
this to the office to appease you, to pacify you.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
Man Blind Eddy, the guy's blind I've seen him. He's blind.
Speaker 8 (32:11):
He would like to know what's your favorite restaurant signature sauce.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Let's see here, signature sauce at a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
You know what? I like that It's not at a restaurant,
but that Ken's honey mustard. Is that what? It is?
Pretty good? Sweet baby raised barbecue sauce.
Speaker 8 (32:32):
Those are those are not what?
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Those are sauces?
Speaker 8 (32:35):
Those are not signature sauces at a restaurant.
Speaker 1 (32:37):
Well, they sell them at restaurants sometimes they have at restaurants.
You can get it at restaurant.
Speaker 8 (32:41):
That well, that that wouldn't be their signature sauce. That
would be a brand. But I know your answer, Ban,
I'm surprised you.
Speaker 1 (32:47):
You probably just raising sau That's good. I like raising.
I don't know if it's like the greatest thing that
in the entire world. Well what about you, Eddie? Yeah,
I'll go with that as well.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
That means that he had no answered, He just copied
what about you, Lardo.
Speaker 5 (33:04):
I think it's probably because I was born and raised
at a Red Robin, but I really like their campfire
sauce and their honey poppy. Their honey poppy is my
favorite honey mustard of any honey mustard.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Oh yeah, it's the honey mustard with the black spots.
Speaker 5 (33:17):
The poppy seed honey poppy.
Speaker 2 (33:18):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
I always wondering what that was.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
I thought it was like rotting or something, little black
spots in the honey mustard.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
What happened to it? Who?
Speaker 8 (33:28):
So, I don't know if this is technically a sauce.
But there's a place out here or there. They have
so many locations called the Zandku Chicken. I think that's
just in La place though. I don't think he's national. No, No,
it's not national. It's you know, southern California.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Fun fact, there's two different versions of that restaurant.
Speaker 8 (33:48):
Yes, the family order, Yeah, yeah, it's it's a crazy story.
Speaker 5 (33:52):
It was a murder.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Yeah, it was a murder, big big tricken tricky the.
Speaker 8 (33:56):
Guy who founded the restaurant. His like wife is one
part is at well you know his widow. Yeah, and
then the kids on the other half.
Speaker 1 (34:05):
Yeah, big chicken brew ha ha.
Speaker 7 (34:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (34:08):
One of the brothers like murdered the other. But it
was it's crazy. But they have this, they have this
garlic paste. It's more of a paste than a sauce
and it's so good, so good, outstanding.
Speaker 9 (34:22):
All right, moving on, let's ask bed your questions are answered.
Cowboy Killer would like to know, my cowboy. Do you
fold your clothes right after you wash or do you
leave it for later?
Speaker 2 (34:34):
Well, I'm not the laundry guy at the house, but
when I do do the laundry, uh, they usually sit
around for maybe a week or something, and then you
fold them after that.
Speaker 1 (34:43):
Sometimes they never even get folded. What about you, Eddie.
Speaker 6 (34:46):
My wife will take out my clothes and the dryer
and she'll throw them on the couch and then I
have to hold them.
Speaker 1 (34:51):
Immediately because I don't.
Speaker 6 (34:52):
The dogs will jump on there because they're nice and
toasty and go to sleep and lay.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
And you'll have dog all over your co They smell fine.
Do they shed to your dog?
Speaker 7 (35:03):
No?
Speaker 1 (35:04):
They don't, really don't.
Speaker 5 (35:05):
All right, Wellreina, I kind of don't.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
You don't do laundry, you just wear dirty?
Speaker 3 (35:16):
I do.
Speaker 5 (35:16):
I do every day. Sometimes they wait for a day
or two. And I never match my socks. I have
a bag of socks that just sits in the corner
of my room. Yeah, because you waste like eight years
of your life matching socks. I think I read that somewhere. Really, Yeah,
but I do like to fold my other stuff that
can rink wrinkle easily. I don't have dogs or cats
to get hair on anything like you guys.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Yeah, all right, fair enough, coop.
Speaker 8 (35:41):
So my clothes will sit in the dryer and just uh,
every day I will go in there and grab whatever
I'm gonna wear, and until until my wife needs to
use the dryer for her clothes. Then they get all
dumped in a hamper and then I will grab from
the hamper until they are all gone.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
So you don't even have a like a place to
put your close I do. I just they just never
get there. Okay, all right, I gotcha.
Speaker 2 (36:08):
Yeah, I mean they usually like once every two weeks
that everything gets gets put.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Away, but other than that, not so much. All right,
what is next? What do we have here?
Speaker 8 (36:18):
The King? Rory would like to Rory, would you park
in a handicap spot just to run a quick?
Speaker 1 (36:22):
Errand no no, my mom used handicap parking and that
she used to go.
Speaker 2 (36:28):
So it's so upset when we drive up to a
place and it be somebody in like a BMW that
was you know in his you know, early thirties. Uh
and in the parking in the handicap place.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
So no, I don't. I don't do that. I mean,
plus I get more steps if I park further away.
What about you, Eddie.
Speaker 6 (36:45):
Probably not, maybe in rare circumstances, if it was. Sometimes
I'll go to the grocery store, like right after I
get off work because there's nobody there if I have
to pick up like two or three.
Speaker 1 (36:53):
Yeah. I like doing that too.
Speaker 6 (36:54):
And there's like there's literally the parking lots empty, and
so you know there's.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
Listen to somebody, right, they're not gonna my name is
where there's somebody that may or may not be on
our morning show that occasionally parks in the handicapped space here.
Speaker 1 (37:04):
Yeah, really yeah, Lorraina, I don't do that. Ben, No,
not you.
Speaker 5 (37:10):
Oh no, I've never done that. I don't think I
ever will. All right, I don't want to get arrested.
Speaker 1 (37:18):
I don't think you never know. It was a little
arrested for stealing your car, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (37:24):
They were in La They Andrew Bynum got dangs for that.
He was a lafer center and Cade McNown l a quarterback.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Cool. Uh No, I do not do that.
Speaker 8 (37:36):
But at my grocery store, there is these two spots
that say for coffee customers only. I park in those
all the time. Yeah, but I know it's also I
hate this.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
Since COVID they have pickup spots like one, two, three,
four or five, I'll.
Speaker 1 (37:50):
Parking those all the time. Screw those people.
Speaker 5 (37:52):
It's the family parking that bugs me.
Speaker 8 (37:54):
Ben.
Speaker 5 (37:55):
Yeah, where it says moms and babies can work here,
what is that?
Speaker 8 (37:58):
Try?
Speaker 1 (37:59):
Screw those baby? Who cares about the baby? No children?
No children,
