Speaker 1 (00:00):
Playball. It's our numb birth three, a Hall of Fame edition.
Here in our number three, what is your position on
Echer Row taking some jabs at the Marlins, the team
he played with the end of his career. Also a
sportswriter who did not vote for him. We'll review the
(00:22):
Hall of Fame speech by Ichi Ro. Also, Michael Kay
says he was not backtracking after reaching out to Blue
Jays manager. The Blue Jays manager about his commentary about
the Blue Jays is that how you see this? We'll
talk about that. And the athletics. Lawrence Butler hit a
no doubter to right field over the weekend that was
(00:45):
called foul initially by the a's broadcaster, and what the
heck happened there to Chris Carey on that call. We'll
talk about that and more right now here. It is
our number three. A very memorable introduction.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malar Show. We are in the air everywhere, neighboring as
we wonder wild coast to coast, border, the border and
beyond on the vast and epically powerful microphones of fsre
(01:26):
ammating live from the plate as in home plate, as
we call balls and Strikes from the Fox Sports Radio
Studios as approved by Drew in Destin, Florida, through a
big supporter of the Malard Pirate Ship and Fifth Hour podcast,
and this show as well, and this portion of the
(01:48):
Ben Maler Show made possible in part by our.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Friends at ty Iraq. For 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 has a protection with convenient installation options
like mobile tire installation tire iraq dot Com. The way
tire buying should be so our lead. This hour is
from the real Baseball Hall of Fame, not to be
(02:12):
confused with the fake Baseball Hall of Fame or any
other fake hall of fame. We mentioned earlier the outrage
that lou Seale was inducted into the mascot Hall of Fame.
Great injustice for lou Seal, but this is the real
Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, and inductees included Billy
Wagner on his last shot each e O Suzuki, the
(02:35):
focus of this Mallard monologue CC Sabbathia. Now they were
also joined by the widow of Dick Allen, passed away
a number of years ago. He was inducted, as was
the son of the late great Dave Parker, the Cobra
Dave Parker, who was.
Speaker 2 (02:52):
A guest on the Fifth Hour podcast back in the day.
He passed away recently as well.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
So all of those people were inducted into the Baseball
Hall of Fame. And it was a gallous ceremony. It
was a brief reign delay. The thing was delayed about
an hour before the ceremony. It's usual showers in the
summertime there in Cooperstown. And it was the Mariner legend
though each Cher Row, each of Row Suzuki who stole
(03:16):
the show. So you didn't see this, maybe you missed it.
Eachi Ro throwing some shade at the Miami Marlins the
last stop of his professional career. And it was hilarious.
And give each your cred. They spoke in English. Here
here's each r Roll in his own words about the Marlins.
Take a listen, and to the Miami Mountains.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Honestly, when you guys called to offer me a contract
for twenty fifteen, I have never heard of your team.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
How great is that? I've never heard of your team
now each roll also slammed the writer who robbed him
of the unanimous induction. And we had pointed out in
previous episodes of the s like this whole thing about you.
Are you unanimous? Are you either in the Hall of Fame,
You're not in the Hall of Fame, and all this stuff. Anyway,
Intro mentioned that in his speech he said that a
(04:10):
certain offer had expired. Do we have that as well?
Let's say we do not have that.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Apparently the editing staff here at Fox Sports Radio thought
that was not worthy of being put in, which I
found very bizarre.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
I think someone should lose their job for that. Anyway,
he said, I'll just pretend i'm Intro. He said, By
the way, the offer for the rider to have dinner
at my home has now expired. He added, he put
the emphasis on expired for good measure. So let us
discuss the question, what is your position on Eatro stealing
(04:40):
the show, getting all the attention more than C. C.
Sabbathi and Billy Wagner. What is your position on Intro
and these jabs? Throwing the jabs out at the Hall
of Fame speech. So I've got nuclear missile, circus Juggler
and Bronnie James, and we will combine all of these
things to get and we're gonna make for a Tillo
(05:02):
and florid. We're gonna make the gobbagool. We're gonna make
the gobbagool. So first of all, what is my position?
What do you think my position is? Okay? I loved it.
It was great. A lot of these Hall of Fame
things are just so lame. They're just so lame. And
it's like the living funeral and all that stuff. You're
still alive, but you're kind of dead. And this is
where you're gonna be remembered, at the Cooperstown and the
(05:24):
mausoleum there in Cooperstown. But I loved it. Right that
the second Ichiro got on that microphone and he served
up a cold dish of revenge. It was great, loved it.
He did not pretend to forgive the writer whoever. We
still don't know the name of the writer. Of course,
(05:44):
he called out that voter like a boss doesn't know
the name. He's yeah, you're a clown. And he left
the old stink of shame like someone that wears cologne
from a gas station all over the writer there, and
you know Eachro's sitting on this for several months since
he found out he was going into the Hall of Fame,
and he waited like a cold blooded assassin, and you delivered.
(06:10):
That's the move, right, That's a solid move. That's how
I like that. You don't lash out right away, and
you play it cool. You wait back, you smile a
little bit, and all that you wave and then on
the biggest stage right there, induction immortality in baseball, the
Hall of Fame, that is when you strike and love.
(06:32):
The Marlin thing was great as well. I thought that
was outstanding. You called me in twenty fifteen. I had
never heard of your team. Now, that is not just
a joke. That is a body bag, body bag, body bag,
putting the team in the body bag, an entire MLB franchise,
which has about seven hundred people to go to their
(06:52):
games on a daily basis, being reduced to a punchline. Okay,
in someone else's story, that's not an insult. That is
a nuclear missile. Nuclear missile wrapped in a bow is
what that is. There, loved it, loved it, loved it.
Speaker 4 (07:07):
Now.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
I also love this story, which is a baseball story.
We go to the Bronx where a longtime Yankee broadcaster,
Michael Kay is on the defensive. Now, Michael Kay went
viral early this month. You might remember it. We talked
about it on these airwaves. So Michael Kay went viral.
He insulted the Toronto Blue Jays when they were he said,
(07:28):
not a first place team. He used run differential as
a reason to back up his hypothesis. The Blue Jays
were not a first team, first place team.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Now one problem, Michael Kay.
Speaker 1 (07:43):
Since then, Toronto's continue to win. They've opened up a
little bit of a lead in the American League East.
They did not win on Sunday. But Michael Kay does
not think he was being critical. Say what now? As
a result, we are told that the voice of the
New Year York Yankees, Michael Kay, reached out via text
(08:04):
to Donnie Baseball Don Mattingly, who's a Blue Jay bench
coach and Yankee all time great, to relay a message
to Toronto's manager John Schneider. So they exchange text messages,
and Michael Kay then followed that up by saying, people
don't want to believe it. He said, they think I'm
(08:27):
backtracking when I'm not. Kai. So question, Michael Kay, longtime
voice of the Yankees, says he's not backtracking, even though
he reached out via Don Maddeningly to get a hold
of the blue Jays manager. Is that how you see it?
That this is not backtracking? All right? So on this one,
(08:47):
I'm giving it total side eye, right, the total sideye
on this one. Michael Kay goes on his own show,
and again this is part of the story. Here he
goes on his own show, he says the Blue Jays
are not a first team, and then they become a
first place team and have been the top team in
baseball the last couple of weeks. And so now he's
(09:08):
scrambling around, Michael Kay trying to defuse a bomb, right
bombity bombity bombity bombity trying to defuse pathetic pathetic, Like,
come on, what are you doing? Michael Kay wants to
be the gas bag shock jock and he wants to
be the team approved mouthpiece of the Yankees at the
(09:31):
same time. And spoiler alert, spoiler you cannot do both.
You cannot do both properly. You cannot do both jobs properly.
If you're a broadcaster, you're a team suck up, you're
a show for the team. Everyone knows it, right, You're
not allowed to be critical of the hometown team. And
if you are critical, you lose your job. That's it. Now.
(09:52):
When you do a job like I have, and Michael
Kay has this job as well, if you're a heart
a hot take artist, you come out with a.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Flame thrower, right, flame thrower and all that. So either
you're that you're that guy, You're the.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Hot take guy or the bedtime with Yankee baseball guy.
Will you tell stories about old Yankees and all that.
It's funny though in the cartoon bubble in my head
thinking that Michael Kay is out there texting Don Mattingly
for help, like, don you're my lifeguard. You gotta bail
me out on this. Don I need some help, Like again,
we'll go back to high school. I was like, what
(10:27):
are we doing here? And Donnie Baseball? Hey, Donnie, it's
Michael Kay over here, a voice of the Yankees. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Can you pass this on to the Blue Jays manager
let him know what I really meant?
Speaker 1 (10:38):
Can you please give me a bleeping break? Like, seriously,
that is what kind of sauce is that? It's not
honey mustard, not barbecue, it's weak sauce, is what that is.
And be a man. Own the take, right, we're in
the take business, the industrial complex of the sports take
own the take clown show. And on this one, Michael
(10:59):
Kay coming across like a Circlus circus juggle. You need
to go to the circus. You see the jugg there
they have the clown makeup on and they're tossing the
flaming swords and then they've got beach balls at the
same time. So and then what happens when when you
get them all together there and you're gonna drop something. Now,
(11:19):
you hope you drop a beach ball and not a
flaming sword, but it happens. And so this is what
I'm talking about, Michael Kay, is trying to do both jobs.
You're not all in on one roll. And multitasking is
great and all that stuff, but if you're a broadcaster,
a team broadcaster, that means that you cannot be a
(11:43):
good sports talk radio host. And if you're a good
sports talk radio host, you cannot bring the fire and
then be a good employee of a team that wants
you to lie about them and give misinformation and gaslight
everyone about how good the team is there. Bad the
team is and so you can't lob grenades, right, you
(12:06):
can't lob grenades and then ask Don Mattingly to pick
up the pieces of shrapnel. I cannot do it. So
I would advise to embrace it. I would advise to
embrace it. You took a shot. If you're Michael Okay,
own it. Just own the take. Be the bad guy,
be the heel. Embrace that's good for business, right, Wear
(12:27):
the black hat, be the goon, be the enforcer guy,
be that guy. And in sports talk, that's what you
have to do. We're not talking about diplomacy here. And
if you think Toronto's run differentially is what he said,
Toronto's run differential makes them total frauds, then own the
(12:50):
take and stick with the take. If that's what you believe,
the fact that they took first place and they've been
playing like gamebusters ever since then that only makes it
that much better. Right, great content. And now you're trying
to walk it back and unring the bell because you're
acting like you offended a sponsor or something like that.
But Michael Kay out there running around and acting like he's.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Too classy to be a troll or Michael Kay, Voice
of the New York Yankees. Then he goes full on
troll and apparently regrets it because of what we're reading here,
and we understand, you gotta pick it. In another example
why we love the round mound of rebound, Charles Barkley.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
Charles Barkley is not in it for friends. He's not right.
He played, he was on the field.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
We know that.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
On the court, Charles Barkley, Charles Barkley's out there and
he's throwing fire and then doubling down on the fire.
Doubling down on the fire, and Michael Kay out is
a little spark for Michael Kay, Voice of the Yankees,
and he ducks for cover.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
It's like, I gotta get away from this a spark.
This is not good. All right? Now, final thought, We
now go to the broadcast, but we're gonna play a clip.
This is more of a visual thing than an audio thing.
But if you didn't hear the viral call from over
the weekend, play a person named Chris Carrey, famous last
name Chris Carrey. The other night, the A's dominated the
(14:17):
cheating Astros over the weekend in Houston. They won all
four games, all four games, win for the Athletics. But
the story everyone is yapping about is a play by
play call by Chris Carey.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
So let me set this up. Lawrence Butler one of
the better players for the Athletics. He's at the plate,
a couple of runners on base. He hits a no
doubt about it dinger. But you wouldn't have known that initially,
as Chris Carey had the call.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
Take a listen, one two pitch high in the air,
deep to right.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
That ball is foul. Oh, go on. That ball was
absolutely launched up at the dish. He knew it off
the bat. That was from NBC Sports Bay Area. So seriously,
(15:12):
I know this is radio. You can't obviously see this
ball was hit closer to center field than it was
to the foul pole. It was in the power alley
and right center field, nowhere near the foul pole. Nowhere
near the foul pole. The fans are, you know, going crazy,
even though they're a hole fans and all that stuff
(15:34):
and carry is like foul ball. So where are you
at on the Athletics broadcaster Chris Carey being immortalized on
the interweb for his horrific call of the Lawrence Butler
home run over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
So this kid is a fourth generation broadcast, fourth generation broadcast.
You would think the pedigree, right, everyone liked all the
championship pedigree. Well, this case broadcasting pedigree that you would
be able to spot fair ball, foul ball off the bat,
fair ball foul ball off.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
The bat, that it would be in your DNA. But
alas that is not the case. It wasn't even close. Again,
wasn't even close. And then he awkwardly reverses it like, oh,
I actually it was a home run. It was a
home run. Total brain freeze. And this is another case
of a net bo baby supreme, net Bo baby supreme.
(16:35):
That call was so bad. How bad was it? It
was so bad. It was like watching Bronnie James try
to shoot a basketball, That's how bad it was. This
is the great grandson of the iconic Harry Carey Cup broadcaster,
the son of Chip Carry. He probably was given a
microphone when when he came out of the womb. He
(16:57):
might have had one in the womb with him. And
on this particular Lawrence Butler home run, he choked, he
panicked god, and it makes you wonder was he doing
some kind of performance art to honor his grandfather, Harry Carey,
as a tribute a couple of pops from the flask
(17:18):
in the broadcast booth to honor good old Harry. Oh
there's a deep fly ball. Wait, it's foul. Holy cow.
You know something like that, like you're watching some kind
of reboot of drunk history. When Harry was very open
about it, he would drink beer.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
They were a big sponsor the Cubs back in the
day while he was doing Cubs Baseball on TV.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
And no, I get it. This guy got the job
because of his last name. He jumped over a bunch
of other people that were likely much more qualified for
that job, but they did not have the carry name.
That's what nepotism is all about, right, That's what you know.
We see coaches in the NFL get promoted because they
have the nepotism card, and basketball players like Brownie James.
And it works in broadcasting probably more so than anything
(18:01):
in broadcasting. Legendary broadcasters that have had kids, and they're
not as good, the sequel, not as good as the
is not the equal of what had happened before, and
they still get these jobs. But is there anyone in
baseball has a worst broadcast booth in the A's Like,
I know, they're not trying to win like in Sacramento,
(18:22):
and they're just kind of a holding pattern until they
get to get to Vegas and all that. But my god,
between Chris Carey and Jenny Kavner, who's terrible, I think
she's still there? Are they trying to find the worst
possible appeals? They open mic night on the Major League
broadcast like I guess they figure no one's watching athletics
(18:44):
baseball on television. Let them work out the kinks and
all that. But my god, how about a big league
quality broadcast as opposed to bush league. It is the

says he tells his players not to read too much
(19:26):
about the trade deadline because ESPN talent used to blank
in the green room. Again, Red Sox manager Alex Korra
says he tells his players not to read too much
into the trade deadline because ESPN talent used to blank
in the green room. That is the mallor riddle of
the day. The answer, We'll get to it. We will

We never have enough time to get to everything we

Speaker 7 (20:08):
To and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have

act accord accordingly. Later this hour we will have the
(21:47):
Insta advice line, so t minutes away. Now back to it,
back to where we go, And here's the riddle of
the day, the Mallord riddle of the day. Red Sox
manager Alice Cora says he tells his players not to
read too much about the trade deadline because he said
ESPN talent used to blank in the green room. What
(22:10):
he said. This is Alice Cora, his words, not my words.
I'm just repeating his words. That is the Malarre riddle
of the day. Let's see what is the answer. Used
to have ice cream float parties from Late Night drug
tester Bobby and Florida says, would play soggy biscuit all right,
perform human sacrifices according to Ferg Dog. Let's see fart
(22:34):
on cakes from asher I Fortyan says ESPN talent used
to smell their own farts in the break room. Used
to take cat naps and daydream from Alf the Alien
o Pliner The King Rory says, bake cookies that that
is the answer. Lady Sideburn says, pull fingers. What else
(22:55):
do we have. BP says they would bang on trash
cans in the green room. Him Donkey Sausage said, they
used to play bus driver Man. There's an old Jackie
Gleason game. I wonder for Bert Roberto must have played
that before he became a bus driver. Andy and Lionel Lakes,
Minnesota says would play Pokemon, would swap Pokemon cards. Tammy
(23:15):
and Montana said, would drink mouthwash in the green room. Yeah,
that's Tammy and Vegas rather not my tam Tammy and Vegas.
I hope you heard mouthwash. Mike called up last week.
He's alive. Mouthwash. Mike is alive. JT the Wingman says,
get a Manny and a petty trucker. Jo says something
involving Blind Scott's favorite game far Out. Dave says the
(23:39):
Elephant Dance. They would do the elephant dance. They would
play musical chairs, according to Mike the Leprechaun, and whoever lost,
hooever's lost got traded, whoever lost got traded? What else
do we have? Page dam By the way, Roberto's listing,
he said, f you Ah, Mark, Mark and Santa Monica said,
ESPN Townent used to watch cartoons in the green room.
(24:02):
All right, do you have an answer, Lorraine.
Speaker 8 (24:05):
Yes, they used to you know, a whole variety box
of cheese curds in the green room.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
Is there a variety of cheese curd box like a
pop tart box? You could do like a variety of
pop tarts. That would be fun, That would be fun. No,
the correct answer. Red Sox manager Alice Corras says he
tells his players not to read too much about the
trade deadline because ESPN talent, he says, used to make
up fake trades in the green room. Blasphemy. Of course,
(24:37):
what alse Cora fails to mention is oftentimes the trades
that are made up on television end up becoming reality
because somebody who works in baseball says, hey, that's a
good idea, Maybe we should make that trade, and it
sparks conversation. Let's go to weed Man Hippie, who's in Miami.
Is it true that this is a special day for
weed Man Hippi. Let's find out? Oh my, well, we man.
(25:01):
We cannot do birthday shoutouts, as you know, so I
cannot wish you a happy, happy, happy birthday, Happy happy
birth and who weed Man? For those that don't know,
weed Man is just turning twenty nine years old. Congratulations
weed Man, Happy birthday, weed Man.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
That's funny. I don't want to tell you old man.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I know, I know we need the demo. At least
you're playing along. Unlike hollering James, he just yells out
how old he is. But you've been calling the show
weed Man for twenty years.
Speaker 8 (25:34):
Right, I'm thirty five. I'm thirty five.
Speaker 1 (25:37):

a year. Everyone loves him in Miami.
Speaker 1 (25:49):

mat weed Man? What are you doing for your birthday?
But I hope you're leaving your house. You stay home,
you're shutting. You got to get out and see the
world a little bit.

beautiful here.

live anywhere else. That's why when people say, hey, i'll
give you a place to stay in du Luth, You're like,
I'm not going to the luth.
Speaker 8 (26:16):
I love the weather.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
That's you do you do?
Speaker 2 (26:18):
That's why you left New York. I saw, I thought
of you. I saw there's an autograph show.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
Obviously as far from from South Florida, but there was
an autograph show, and Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden in
La here. They're going to be doing an autograph show
in August. We that'd be perfect for Weed.
Speaker 4 (26:34):

Those are his heroes.
Speaker 8 (26:35):
Love them. I love dwy good And.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
I know, I know you tell stories about those guys
back in the day. So this is amazings.
Speaker 8 (26:44):
Martha Gooden and Lissa Shrawberry.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Neither one of them married to those women anymore? Though, right,
I don't think they've moved on to other women. But yeah,
now I hear you man, all.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Right, Well, you wanted to just wanted us to kiss
your ass on your birthday, and we did that, right.
I think we've checked that box.
Speaker 8 (27:01):
And uh so I need another ring.
Speaker 1 (27:04):
So you're you're not gonna lose this one. If you
get another one, right, you're not gonna lose.
Speaker 8 (27:10):
It, won't.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Why did you Why didn't you enter the Malapalooza when
you were on the big stars. Here are you big stars?
You got a jet who fled? All you guys don't enter?
What's up with that? It's like the home right, It's
like I said on my I did a rant on
the podcast over the weekend. I said, it's like the
It's like the home Run Derby. You guys are two

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah? That's your skill that it's doing cosplay?
Speaker 3 (29:15):
All right?
Speaker 1 (29:15):
Thank you. That gives us time to talk to Andrea.
She is in Berkeley. She is the astrology insider and
a former athletics fan. I don't know if she still
is an A's fan. They're not in well, they're in Sacramento,
but they're moving to Vegas. And then she likes the Mets,
and the Mets were in town. He's beat up the Giants.
(29:35):
I bet that made her happy. Hello Andrea, Welcome, Hello Ben,
how are you? If I was any better, I'd be
a carry. But not Chris Carey because he botched that
home run call over the weekend.
Speaker 2 (29:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
I was actually calling in to defend him. You know,
with Mercury retrograde, Ben, a lot of these errors can
occur more frequently. And Mercury's retrograde July seventeenth to August eleven,
and Mercury rules communication, so when we're having a Mercury retrobrade,
there's more of a chance of communication snaffoos. And he's
(30:08):
only twenty five. I've done his chart. He's actually a
very spiritual scorpio, and you know, it's like one of
those things when you know he and he was actually
on his Twitter site if you want to check it out.
He's very humble. He apologized and well.
Speaker 1 (30:25):
That's good, but it wasn't anywhere close to the foul
poll I mean, I mean one thing was close to
the foul Paul that was closer to center field, right,
I'm looking. I'm looking at it again just to make
sure I didn't watch it the wrong wrong way the
first time. Like there was no you know, somebody's like
down the line and maybe it's gonna be fair, maybe
it's gonna be foul. That thing was to the middle
(30:46):
of the power alley in right field, all right.
Speaker 4 (30:49):
I mean, anyone can make a mistake. And like I said,
the chance of something like that happening with mercury retrograde
is quite strong. And he also said it very spiritual statement.
He talked about the cosmic nature of baseball, and Quick
Pitch played the clip of it, so you know, you
can't have the rainbow without the rain you know, no
(31:11):
one's perfect, and he's really very good at what he does.
And that was just kind of a typical mercury retrograde
snaffhou And we have to give people a little more grace.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
Well you have to. I do not have to as
a talk show host. I do not have to. Now
you can do that, and that's fine, and it could
be great and all that. Who knows. I but that
was that was not good. That was bad to the bone,
bad to the bone.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
Yeah, we all make mistakes. And like I said, he
was very culpable about it and.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Didn't mean he's a nepo baby. And he admitted his
last name does help him. He would not have that
job without his last name.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
Yeah, that's quite a lineage he comes from. Actually, Yeah,
so you know it is what it is. I mean,
Goddess only knows the mistakes I made at five. And
while we're talking about age, Happy birthday, Leo birthday, weed Man,
time has flown by.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Yes, the years keep piling up a pile of clothes
that need to be washed.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
That's a good weed man analogy exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
I bet your weed man hasn't done laundry since the eighties.
Something tells me it's it's been a minute since he's
done some laundry.
Speaker 4 (32:22):
He's pretty earthy. I get that feeling from him.
Speaker 1 (32:25):
Yeah, yeah, for sure. All right, Well, very good. I'm
glad you're out there, Andrea, and thank you.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
And we will chat again soon, hopefully any cosmic events.
You are cosmic insider, Yes, happy.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
To be the cosmic insider. I mentioned that I did
a podcast for what is it? Sports Radio Service, and
I mentioned being the cosmic insider atology Lady sports sortress.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Yes, you have a lot of nicknames here, you have
a lot of nicknames. If we're going service on X
if you want to say to Andrew, thank you.
Speaker 4 (32:54):
Man take the case?
Speaker 1 (32:55):
All right?
Speaker 2 (32:56):
There she goes our friend Andrea and her absolutely yeah,
but yeah, part it is the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
As we are working our way through the overnight hours,
blind Scott is there? What are you doing? Blind Scott?
What do you want? You're on hold there, You've been
on hold the whole show.
Speaker 8 (33:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:13):
So anyways, I can go to a Red Soars game
whenever I want because I know a couple of influencers
that have season taps.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
So you and you were at one of the games
over the weekend, weren't you. You send me a bunch
of emails you were going to I was gonna go
what happened?
Speaker 8 (33:26):
Technical?
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Well, last year I went with my friends to Lana
del Rey and somebody punched me in the face. So
like we were discussing that, so I said, you know,
I have a solution to that. I got adult diapers.
So I said, bring my Louis Vuitton diaper bag and
wear my diapers, and then they totally nixed the plan,
like right before the game, they paid me not not
to go, which I'm fine with because I needed the
(33:48):
I needed the money pretty bad. But these diapers are
so advanced nowadays, Like I have a mistress and everything,
and you know, I know some OnlyFans models that she
would have changed my diaper at the game, but they
don't have an adult baby diaper changing room at the
Rectord team.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
But do you realize you're admitting you wear diapers on
the radio. You realize that, well you don't.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
You don't just do like a full diaper like excursion.
You take precautions. But dude, you know the Red Sox
they went on strike, Like are.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
A mind well the employee, Yeah, the employees that finy
went on. Has that been settled? Is it still going on?
Speaker 4 (34:20):
No?
Speaker 8 (34:21):
I think they didn't.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
They might be settling today. But due they did, nothing stopped,
like people showed up from other locations and works like
they didn't start. No food was like not sold because
of it. No dollars were lost or anything.
Speaker 8 (34:33):
Dude.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
One other thing too, Like something's really wrong with Michael
Bapricaun's forehead.
Speaker 8 (34:38):
I heard like, It's like, I say, we.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
See here, is something wrong with your forehead, Michael Leprechaun.
Speaker 8 (34:47):
No, no, you know something's wrong with Benk Scott if
he's wearing diapers.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
All right, Scott, Mike says, there's something wrong with you
if you're wearing diapers.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Imagine all these Brazilian women that came to the United
States to marry Mike's leprechaun and had to get stuck
with this guy. You know what I'm saying. He smells
like suntan lotion and Irish springs.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
All right, Mike the Leprecaun, he's a he's making shots
that blind Sky is taking shots at U s as
you smell like suntannlotion, I do smell like Now, what
do you in the winter? Do you wear suntannlotion in
the winter? I do you do?
Speaker 8 (35:21):
So?
Speaker 1 (35:21):
Ye're year around? You wear a suntann look?
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Well year round?
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Why?
Speaker 8 (35:28):
Because I like to smell of the coconuts.
Speaker 1 (35:31):
Why not get some coconut cologne or something. Yeah, I
don't think you're supposed to use on my sunblock. I
think it's bad for you, Not that I care about
your health.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Wow, you didn't say that when you got that little
gift card from him. They still have to spend the
cheesecake one, you have to wait two more days. You
didn't care ye At that time you cared about him.

they want to make that happen, want.
