Speaker 1 (00:00):
Omaha, Omaha, it's our numb berth three, our number three.
In a NFL broadcaster, former NFL star Terry Bradshaw come
on with a flamethrower. Bradshaw says, the Steelers waiting for
Aaron Rodgers is a joke. You had some other polarizing comments, Howney,
categorize this one also where you're at on Jalen Ramsey's

(00:23):
real estate connection to the Cowboys, he's relocating to the
Dallas area, and Braves manager Brian Snicker implied recently that
the infield hasn't been playing clean and that third Basement
Austin Riley's issues are due to bad hops, not bad defense.
What is your position on this? We'll get to that
as well. Right now here it is our number three,

(00:48):
not exactly rolling out the welcome wagon, Welcome. In the
beginning of another hour of the Ben Mathers Show, we
are in the air every free where, allies, as we
loosen up a wee bit here coast to coast, border
to border and beyond. On the mast and markedly powerful

(01:14):
microphones of fs are ammnating live from the block, the
Stumbling Block of sports Talk. The Fox Sports Radio studios
approved by Big Greg and Iowa. I met him at
the Mallard Meet and greet we did a couple of
years back and drove off from Iowan. He lives up
to the moniker Big Greg and he knows that this

(01:37):
portion of the Ben Maller showmate possible by ti Iraq.
For over forty years, tire Iraq has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options. Hello fer dog Ice, I know
you're nodding your head. Yes, options like mobile tire installation,

(01:58):
ti raq dot com the way that tire buying should be.
So we are hanging out together and we're gonna go
to the state of Arkansas right now. That's right, the
state of art. We used to have a guy called
the show who retired as a caller named Sir scratch
Off and he's done now is a call but he
was a regular from there. We had a few others

(02:18):
over the years that used to call from Arkansas. Nobody
really right now holding down the title as the top
caller from the state of Arkansas. But on a random
morning Zoo show, my former radio colleague Terry Bradshaw. I
actually did local radio with Terry bradshawe years ago, so
he has entered the chat now. I don't know anyone
wanted him to ender the chat, but Terry has to
set an end of the chat. If you did not hear,

(02:39):
if you have no idea what I'm talking about, the
four time Super Bowl champion, the Hall of Famer, the
man that's been on television on the NFL, on Fox
for like forever, Terry Bradshaw did not exactly bite his
tongue on a local Arkansas radio show when the rich

(03:00):
chin was raised, what about Aaron Rodgers? Now, Terry Bradshaw
because of what he did fifty years ago, over fifty years,
Terry is like an ambassador now for the Steelers for
the rest of his life. And so he was asked
about Aaron Rodgers. And it is supposed to happen soon.
People are trying to figure out the exact date. We're
getting close to the month of June. It's gonna happen
sometime in June. Rodgers gonna sign. He goes all figured out.

(03:22):
So Terry popped up on one oh three point seven
The Buzz. It's a Central Arkansas radio station and you'll
hear it's a morning zoo show, so it's a lot
of goofy stuff and all that. But you'll hear Terry
Bradshaw and we have the audio. So let's go to
the audio tape. Take a listen. What do you think
about possibly Aaron Rodgers being the quarterback as a joke?

(03:44):
He shouldn't. That is just to me as a joke.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
But what are you gonna bring him in for one year?

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Are you kidding me? I mean no, man, that guy
needs to stay in California and go thank you and Hubo.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
And bark whisk it to the gods out there on
these guys on the show.

Speaker 1 (04:04):
Mister Bradshaw know I'm not a fan of his. We
we've been around each other personally and he was not
a kind person. And yeah, he does not. I had
to go over and introduce myself to him.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
He's not.

Speaker 1 (04:16):
I had to go, hey, hey, Aaron, I'm Terry Bradshaw.
I know he knows me, but I just felt like
I better tell him who I am and not.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
You know what, You walk in there and you get
in his.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Presidence and you feel like it's gonna start snowing. Wow, Okay, uh,
there you go. So that's Serry Bradshaw. He're getting Aaron
Rodgers presidence. You feel like it's gonna start snowing. But
the money part of that was it's a that's a joke.
The Steelers adding Aaron Rodgers, that's a joke. He said,
Stay in California, go chew on bark, whisper to the

(04:47):
gods out there. Are there different gods in California? I
don't know, maybe they are anyway, So let us discuss
the question you just heard the audio. Terry Bradshaw on
local Arkansas Morning Zoo radio says, these dealers waiting for
Aaron Rodgers is a joke. He said, So how do
you categorize this one? I've got porcupine paint by numbers

(05:10):
and ac DC, and we will combine all of these
things together and we're gonna make Arkansas possum pie. Now
there is no possum in Arkansas. Possum pie. I had
a listener several years. This goes back many years, but
I had a listener from Arkansas who sent me. This
is back when I was really fat and I was
eating everything, and they sent me a couple of photos.

(05:33):
In fact, it was so far ago, so long ago.
I think it was on MySpace, but they sent me
photos of Arkansas possum pie and it looks amazing. Doesn't
sound amazing, but it looks amazing. So we're gonna make that.
So first of all, Terry Bradshaw Man, he still got it. Terry.
I had so much fun back in my younger days

(05:54):
when Terry. They hired Terry to do a one hour
show Lunch with Terry, and he only really wanted to
do it during football season, but he agreed to do
it year round. And I'll never forget Terry Bradshaw coming
in one day with nothing, He had done no prep
for the show, and he was buddies. There was his
famous comedian back in the day, who I don't think

(06:16):
he's famous anymore, named Jeff Foxworthy. Was a big star
back then, and Terry was friends with him. So Terry
came in one day and for the entire hour, just
read a bunch of Jeff Foxworthy Yomama jokes for an
entire hour in the number one radio market in the country,
just read. That's all he read. And that was one
of the great shows of all time. But on this one,

(06:39):
you talk about it in an Inferno canon. Terry Bradshaw
seventy six years young, Good old Terry, And yeah, he's
not following the football decorum, if you will here at all,
no cliches, no platitudes. When on local Morning Zoo radio,

(07:00):
act like you're on local Morning Zoo radio and you
gotta be unfiltered. There's a lot of people shaking their head,
are nodding their head. Yes, they're like, well what Rogers
said is accurate, and the real Yins are fian They
don't want anything to do with Aaron Rodgers, right, And
I love the line Bradshaw said, Rogers go chew on

(07:22):
bark like he's a porcupine or something like that. And
that's like the exclamation point on the ramp. And then
he added on a second exclamation point by saying being
around Rogers implying he's so cold it starts to snow.
But I guess Rogers is a bit of a porcupine.
They just appairly choose on bark. Is there aahuasca in

(07:44):
the bark? Maybe that's why he's doing it. I don't know.
There's some trees that have the ayahuasca in it, And
then could be the case. Now, obviously we're not Steeler
backers on this. We're not like Spaccoli and some of
these other casts that love the Steers. We support Aaron
Rodgers because we have an overnight talk show to do,
and so we support the idea of Aaron Rodgers going

(08:05):
to Pittsburgh because that's good content for a talk radio show.
And that's what I do for a living. If I
didn't do this for a living, I wouldn't really care.
But I do care, so I have some skin in
the game. And looking down from the catbird seat, being
realistic here, the bar is not high. The bar is
not high. The Steelers last year had atrocious quarterbacks. Russell

(08:29):
Wilson's been done for several years. They were putting lipstick
on that pig. And Justin Fields has never been able
to play consistently at a good level. We'll have a
good series now and again, but overall not very good.
That's why he keeps changing teams because he sucks. And
so that's why Tomlin had him. And I want nothing
to do with this guy. Will sendence him to Siberia.

(08:51):
We'll put him in a Jets uniform. That'll ruin him.
I mean, man, when your two quarterbacks the only jobs
they can get are with the Giants, and they that
tells you that's your last stop before you leave the NFL,
when you're playing for those teams, your last time. But
again the bar is low in Pittsburgh. So Rogers goes
in there, and he only has to be better. He
doesn't have to be the MVP version of Rogers. He

(09:14):
merely has to be better than the quarterback room they
have right now, which last I checked is Mason Rudolph,
the red nose quarterback who's back. And Will Howard who
is untested and is a college player that's going to
try to make it in the NFL and was not
a high draft pick and not highly rated quarterback all right.
Secondly to the rumor mill working overtime, South Florida, we go,

(09:38):
we're cornerback cornerback, not quarterback cornerback. Jalen Ramsey former ram
you can ram it all day, ram it all night,
and douvall County. So Jalen Ramsey currently with the Miami
football team, not for long. The expectation in the next
ten days he is going to enter the portal, go
somewhere else, And so he has been subject of a

(10:00):
lot of trade conversation. It's been bouncing all over the place,
and so the Dolphins and Ramsey, there's conflicting reports. I
think the general consensus is that there's an agreement there
that he's going to end up on a different team,
that they've explored trade options, they want to accommodate the player,
and there's teams interested. There was a story from Schefter

(10:21):
that said that there are more teams interested than most
people realize. Whatever that means for Jalen Ramsey. Now we
can advance the story with that as the setup, with
that as the backdrop the rest of the story. So,
Jalen Ramsey recently purchased a home, a big home, a
nice expensive home in Fort Worth, which is obviously in

(10:44):
the Dallas metroplex there and it's really convenient if you
were to play, I don't know for the Cowboys, it
would be convenient. And that has fueled trade conversation as
you might imagined. So where are you at on Jalen
Ramsey is real estate connection? Is they're a there there

(11:04):
in terms of connecting it to the Cowboys. So yes,
I believe there is there there despite the insider saying
there's nothing to see here. There's nothing to see with
people that carry the water for the cowboys. But here's
the deal, Ramsey, using the art of manifestation. I do
not understand this yet. We have a kind of a painting,

(11:25):
if you will. It's a classic painting, like going into
an art museum, and in this case it's paint by numbers.
It's like you go to an art store, you get
one of those kids paint by numbers, and you just
got to fill in each numbers. Each number, like the
first number it says, paint a house, paint a big house.

(11:46):
Make the house in DAWs. Check. The second number on
the paint by numbers is you put cryptic social media
posts out there that make people talk. Check and then
boom baby. Third the third box to paint in the
paint by numbers. Jerry Jones sees all this and makes

(12:11):
a call to the Miami Dolphins. So paint by number now, Ramsey,
I said, well, is there a connection to Dallas and
maybe he grew up there and that's why he wants
to go back to that area. And I was like, no,
he's from Tennessee. He went to high school in the
suburbs of Nashville, went to college at Florida State with
the Seminoles. I know Jed, who fled very excited about that,

(12:33):
and then he went off to play in the NFL.
And so there's no unless he is with some woman
or somebody's in a relationship with somebody from that area,
which is possible. But outside of that, there's no natural
connection that I could have could have found. So it's
possible he just loves Texas brisket. Barbecue Brisket's wonderful. I
would move there just for the barbecue brisket in Texas.

(12:54):
But why not. Maybe he likes the style, the big
belt buckles and the boots, and or he just needs
a tax rite off. It's a couple of states if
you make a lot of money. I know this from people.
Of course I don't make a lot of way, but
people that have made it big, they tell you first
state to move to is Florida because that's where you

(13:15):
But if you can't go to Florida for some reason,
Texas is another one. Right, do you just move all
your stuff there and you'll save a lot more money
to live the same life that you would live somewhere else.
But you just don't have the draconian politicians getting into
your pocket and taking your money, and you know, so
they could waste it on crap that people don't need anyway.

(13:35):
So that is the kind of player, though, if you
look at the profile of the player, is that not
the kind of player that Jerry Jones gets? Name check?
He's a name brand player, so he's got that b
He's at that point where he's teetering on the brink
of falling off the map. Check. Jalen Ramsey's got maybe
another year or two you can squeeze out of him,

(13:58):
but if you look at the comps, it's not particularly good.
So he's middle aged, he's got the name, he's on
the back nine. Those are all things that Jerry Jones
gets excited about. Jerry likes that a lot. All right,
final thought, we go to baseball. That's right, baseball. A
story that has been percolating recently. I thought this was funny,

(14:20):
and I had a couple of listeners, one of them
in Georgia, I don't think in Atlanta, but a Braves fan,
and another one in Tennessee, again not in Atlanta, but
a Braves fan. And so two different people sent me
this so I thought, well, if two people send it
and they don't think they know each other, this must
be something interesting. And I had not seen this. I
thought i'd share it with you. So recently Brian Snicker,

(14:43):
that is the manager of the Atlanta Braves. So Brian
Snicker passionately defended third baseman Austin Riley, who has been
El Mattador at third base. Oh o, leo, leole. As
the ball goes through his legs and it bounces off
his glove in the whole thing. Anyway, he's spent in
five errors this month. Now, I didn't play in the

(15:05):
major leagues. I don't think that's good. Oh, you bear
too hard, Ben, Maybe it's good to make five errors
in a month. Anyway, he assigned Brian Snicker. Who did
he blame? Did he blame the player? Did he blame?
What did he blame? Did he blame the weather? What else?
Do you? Could? He blame the equipment? No, he blamed

(15:28):
the grounds crew at Truest Park in Atlanta, suburban Atlanta.
He blamed the ground screw. Say what yes, now I'm
paraphrasing here, but the Braves manager implied that the infield
has not been playing clean in Atlanta, and that the
issues that his third basement, Austin Riley, have had are

(15:48):
because of bad hops and not really bad defense. It's
just bad luck. It's just bad luck. So what is
your position on this kerfluffle in Atlanta? So my position
is wowsers. Like I get another one that said I
was unaware of this. I don't pay that close attention
to day to day of the Atlanta Braves. So when

(16:09):
I saw this and then I double checked it, I
did the discount double check as Aaron Rodgers was because
I was trying to say, I'm so paranoid, like is
this fake? I don't want to get punked. I won't
do a fake story. I was like, this sounds like
it would be fake, Like this is something you would
think that somebody would not ever actually say, Like why
would you say that? That's embarrassing. I mean your Major
League Baseball get You have the greatest ballparks in the world,

(16:31):
the greatest grounds, cruise manicured, the perfection. It's not like
when I was a kid. It was more of a
mom and pop It was we can romanticize it, but
it was a mom and pop operation. And they'd have
the guy that manicured the high school baseball field also
worked double duty at the big league ballpark. Now these

(16:52):
guys have full time jobs. They have cruis of people
to manicure the grass and the dirt and make everything perfect.
And you've got to manage You're the Atlanta Braves say, oh,
my place does not My players got five errors, four
of them at my home ballpark. But it's not that
it's not his fault. No, no, this is an issue with
the the dirt. He's going ac DC the dirty deeds done,

(17:15):
dirt cheap? Are the Braves cutting costs? Have they fired
the ground screw? Is that what's going on right now?
Blaming the dirt? Is there some kind of grand conspiracy?
I don't know about. Have I missed out on this?
Have I been in the dark on this? Like? Did
they booby trap the part at third base? There is
like a door that opens up when Austin Riley's about
to field the ball. Did they put crab grass out there?

(17:36):
Are there like gopher holes? What's going on here? Do
we do we know? I imagine like the ground screw,
you think they all get together before the game and
they're like, all right, all right, boys, let's see how
we can screw over Austin Riley today. What are we
gonna do at third base? Yeah? The other question like,

(17:57):
why does this only seem to affect Austin right Like
the other team The Braves play someone every day, a
major League Baseball team when they're at home this month,
and it's Austin Riley that has issues. The other players
haven't had the same volume of issues that he has had,
so again and not on least mind boggling. So I
know the manager's going to defend his players, and that's

(18:19):
what you're supposed to do, stand by your players. Blah
blah blah blah. I get all that, but again, he
was talking about twenty million dollar player Austin Riley, and
you're blaming the earth like an act of God or something.
They're blaming the dirt is why you suck, and your
mitt is now made of concrete apparently, and they're just

(18:40):
nothing there all right. So you can add that to
the wacky, wacky baseball stories. It is the Ben Malor Show.
If you'd like to comment on any of that, you
can join us right now and say hello. We'll take

And if Jalen Ramsey is an undrafted free agent, he'd
be right up.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
Jerry Jones Alley, Well, if he works cheap, yeah, yeah,
but no, Jerry likes those older players that have a
big name that are kind of not that good anymore.
That's like the perfect cowboy. That's wonderful. It's like he
puts together the team from leftovers. Yeah, yeah, exactly like it.
So pot luck, you know, it's like pot luck dinner.

(26:46):
You know, maca cheese over there. You got some kind
of weird mystery meat meat loaf thing over on the

I appreciate that we do need a game show contestant,
as we are going to have coming up momentarily a
game show, but we can't play the game show unless
we have a contestant. Gumby Dave says, for what it's worth, Ben,
you're getting way too many calls from the Boston area
and they're putting them on the air every single show.

(27:28):
You must it says too much from the same callers
in Boston every night and nothing interesting to say. Well,
Gummy Dave, funny enough you bring that up. You never
call the show, Gunna be Dave. I give out the number.
It's a call in radio show, and whoever calls. We
happen to get a lot of calls from Boston. We're
on the Sports Hub, which is the top sports radio

(27:49):
station of the country there, and we're on that station
at night, and there's a lot of people up in
Boston that are listening and call the show. But we
don't stop anyone. For a while, we were overtaken by
people in Minnesota right now. You know, it's kind of
bland the time, even though the Wolves are in the
conference finals. People are not yapping about that, So we
don't keep people off the air. Gunna be Dave. Whoever

(28:11):
calls and wants to talk. It just happens. A lot
of them are from Boston, so deal with it all right. Anyway, Well,
let's get to the game. What do you say here?
We go hit that button right.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
There, Ben Meller game.

Speaker 1 (28:22):

Speaker 3 (28:54):
Thanks for taking my call?

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Man, you're gonna play the game? Is that correct? You've
signed up to play the game? Do I find my
life away tonight? Are you guaranteeing a win? I'm guaranteeing
a win. If you do not win? What will happen
if I do not win? I guess I have to

(29:16):
take my field out of the middle militia. There's a
lot on the line, A lot on the line. Yeah, Hey,
no pressure, no pressure. It's either he's still in the
militia or he's done. That's it. I've taken myself out. Damn.
Now you say you're a Chiefs fan to the casket drops,
but not I'm Malard militia guy. If you lose this game, yeah,

(29:38):
right here we go.

Speaker 2 (29:39):
Well yep.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
Question number one the Colorado. The Colorado Rockies have now
lost eighteen consecutive series dating back the last season. Is
that too much or not enough?

Speaker 2 (29:56):
Eighteen consecutive series the last season? Not too much?

Speaker 1 (30:05):
Okay, he says too much. Let's find out two more
wrong answers away from being eliminated from the Matlin militia.
The answer is not enough. The Rockies have lost twenty
one consecutive series, the longest streak in baseball history. As
they are really going for it, they are going to
win the Trophy for suck at the very top. Question two.

(30:28):
Tyrese Halliburton just became the fifth player ever to have
thirty plus points, ten plus rebounds, and fifteen plus assists
in a playoff game. Is that too much or not enough?

Speaker 2 (30:40):
Fifth player?

Speaker 4 (30:41):
Not enough?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
All right? Wow, too much. He's only the third player
to do that in the playoffs, joining nikoley jokicchen Oscar Robertson. Oh, Brandon,
this is not going well, Brandon.

Speaker 5 (31:01):
No, it's not Hang in there, Brandon, you can do it.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
I'm gonna miss you.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
Guys.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
It's gonna be the end of a listener. We're losing
a listener because he can't win a game show. Its terrible.

Speaker 5 (31:12):
We can't have pathetic people in the militia bed.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
That's true. Heyes, all right, Here we go question question
number three. There there are now only four players ahead
of Pete Alonso on the Mets all time home run list?
Is that too much or not enough?

Speaker 2 (31:29):
Four players ahead of Peter Lonzo on the all time
Mets players?

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Matt, that's not enough. You sure about that? Too much?

Speaker 4 (31:44):
That's too much?

Speaker 1 (31:47):
I know you all right? All right? You got that
one right, by she got that one right. If you
didn't get.

Speaker 5 (31:52):
That one right, I really wanted to dump him.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
No, I know too much. There are only two players
ahead of Alonzo, David Right and Darryl Strawberry, and he
only has He's only fifteen home runs away from Strawberry.
So Pete A. Lonzo is going to be mister met
Question number four for Brandon Number fun. Here we go.
The Pacers have had six games in the twenty twenty
five playoffs where all five starters scored ten or more points.

(32:21):
Is that too much or not enough to stay alive? Brandon?
There's a lot of ambient noise. Brandon. You have now
been kicked out of the maulid Bliss, you have been decommissioned,
you have been excommunicated. The answer is not enough. They

(32:44):
have eight such games. That is the most by any
team in a single postseason since the nineteen ninety two Trailblazer.
Your brand, it's been an honor having you and the militia.
We're gonna miss you, buddy life. You know, get a
real job. If you want to retake the oath next week,
will consider putting you back here. But otherwise that's it.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
So I think you just hung up on you. That
was really aggressive.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Yeah, he's embarrassed.

Speaker 5 (33:08):
I would be embarrassed.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
I understand shame. He really got every he had all
four questions. We should have astened the fifth one. Every
every talent axty.

Speaker 5 (33:18):
Maybe we should have given him a golden ticket.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Everything he said was wrong and he listens to the show,
so that's probably be our problem. Anyway, we will press
on and straight ahead. We are moments away from the
Queen of Hearts. If you want to get a question
in hashtag Queen of Hearts, hashtag Queen of Hearts on

Yeah, but no, if you take a blanket, then you
have a blanket with you, you could you know, or
you know.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
I feel like this is more of a statement than
a question.

Speaker 4 (37:33):
I feel like this is, yeah, well would you would
you have a date with a man like at the
park with the blanket the wine?

Speaker 5 (37:40):

How do I break up with them?

Speaker 1 (39:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (39:04):
You know, honestly, in a relationship like that, I feel
like you should just ghost them. There's no greater shame
than the shame that they have bestowed upon you nation
like nationwide.

More?

Speaker 1 (39:32):
That's from King Rory.

you are really competitive, you know, you can throw the
board against the wall and then but you know you
gotta competition.

Speaker 5 (39:42):
You gotta break up to make up baby makeup.

Speaker 1 (39:46):

That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating.

Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
