Speaker 1 (00:00):
Omaha, omaha.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our number for our number four, and we have
a brew haha bubbling up involving a former NFL legend.
What is your initial reaction to Tom Brady saying he
was not involved in the Raiders' decision to pass on
(00:22):
drafting Shader Sanders. Brady gave a full throated denial to that.
Also on a podcast that Tom Brady had some interesting
words about Skip Bayless and he was yapping about that.
How do you grade the back and forth which was
really one sided between Tom Brady and Skip Bayless.
Speaker 1 (00:41):
Will talk about that.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
And Aaron Rodgers, a minority owner for the Steelers commenting
on Aaron Rodgers and he said that AI is more
complicated or Aaron Rodgers is more complicated than AI. So
what did you read into that comment by the Steelers
minority owner on a business show that Rogers more complicated
(01:04):
than AI. We'll talk about all that and more right
now here. It is our number four.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Have a great day, give this part.
Speaker 3 (01:14):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio blowing a gasket.
Speaker 1 (01:20):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malors Show.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
We are in the air, AmWhere as we get on
the horn well, you have to get on the horn.
We're just talking in the microphones here, and they're in
constant motion, NonStop, coast to coast, border the.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
Border and beyond on the.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
Mast and devilishly powerful microphones of FSR amminating live from
the junction, your Jive junction, all night long the Fox
Sports Radio Studios, as approved by Mason the Millennial.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
He supports this show unless he does it.
Speaker 2 (02:09):
As we are hanging out now, this portion of the
Ben Malor Show, which you were listening to right now,
made possible apart by tire i Rack. That's right, tire

the basketball last night, another round.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Of good games? What has gone on?
Speaker 2 (02:40):
Is there some kind of deal with the devil that
the NBA made. We've had four well, I don't want
to say four good. The Golden State Minnesota game was
not that good, but other than that, had Tyrese Halliburton
Indiana came back.
Speaker 1 (02:53):
They were down big, down by twenty three points. They
came back. They won on a Halliburton three point shot
with a second to go in the game. That dagger
from over rated.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
And then Minnesota decided he didn't need to show up
for the first half of the game and they lost.
And Steph Curry got hurt in that game. That's kind
of a big deal. I'm told that's a big deal.
Steph Curry got hurt. He's injured, and who knows how
long he's going to be out. All right, So our
lead though this hour is not from the bouncy ball.
It is not from the bouncy ball. Instead, we are
(03:27):
going to the NFL kind of the NFL. It's more
about the draft.
Speaker 1 (03:32):
Who what are you talking about? The draft? The draft
was last month.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
Listen.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
It's still got legs. Believe it or not. The draft
still has legs.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
So the Raiders were assumed by many to be one
of the destinations for Colorado quarterback former Colorado quarterback should
Ear Sanders, and in fact, there were conspiracy theorists that
had pointed out every time the Raiders lost the game,
should Hear Sanders had posted something which seemingly indicated his
interest in playing for the Raiders, and as we know
(04:01):
by now, the Raiders did not draft Sugar Sanders. And
this whole thing raised some eyebrows because of the relationship
that Tom Brady has. Now, Tom Brady has been a
mentor to Shuar Sanders since he was in high school.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
So they go back a number of years. They've been
around a number of years, and.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
The team is co owned by Hello, Tom Brady. So
Tom Brady owns part of the Raiders. And he made
some comments about this, and he was on a podcast,
The Impulsive Podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
What the hell is that?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
I don't even know what that is anyway, God, everyone's
got a podcast. Holy crap, there's no one listening to
these things anyway. All right, So he has a podcast.
He was on a podcast with someone. I don't know
who that is. I've never heard of this podcast anyway.
Brady was on there and he denied influencing the Raiders'
decision to not draft raft Sureter Sanders, Well, you're here
(05:02):
the Q and A.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
And rather than me give you the quotes, let's go
to the audio tape. Should are Sanders? What happened?
Speaker 4 (05:09):
Tom?
Speaker 5 (05:09):
Why?
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Why did he go so late in the draft.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
It's a good question.
Speaker 6 (05:13):
I was.
Speaker 7 (05:14):
I wouldn't have part of any evaluation process or to
pay lessons otherwise. No, No, Well everyone's got every you know.
That's the problem with media is everyone can just say
whatever want. I actually texted Shudor because I've know him
very well, and I said, dude, like, whatever happens wherever
you go, Like that's your first day, Day two matters
more than the draft.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
I was one ninety nine.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
Yeah, so who could speak on it better than me?
Speaker 7 (05:38):
Like what that really means?
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Use it as motivation.
Speaker 7 (05:40):
You're going to get your chances, Go take advantage of it.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
All right.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
So there's Brady on some podcast we've never heard of
talking about Shooter Sanders. As Sanders was a fifth round
pick we know by the Cleveland football team, the Brownies,
with the one hundred and forty fourth overall pick. So,
despite Tom Brady's mentorship, Sam was not solely Brads the
minority owner of the Raiders, And as you heard right there,
(06:06):
he says he was not part of the evaluation process.
So reports indicate that Tom Brady was frustrated by the
claims that he was behind the decision not to draft
Schulder Sanders by the Raiders and called Bayless. Later on here,
appareldly called them an idiot skip Bayless behind the scenes.
(06:29):
So let us discuss the question for the esteem panel,
which you're part of. What is your initial reaction to
Tom Brady saying he was not involved in the Raiders
decision to pass on Shuarder Sanders.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
So I've got on this one. I've got Shaggy, the
O show and hostess.
Speaker 2 (06:51):
And not the hostess with the Moses just toast us,
and we'll combine all of these things together and we
are gonna play some blackjack. We're gonna go to the casino,
and we're gonna play back. We're gonna do it, all right.
So to lead off here the clips that are going around,
we played one of the clips from tom Brady, tom
Brady getting worked into a lather over something that you
(07:14):
assume would not work you into a lather.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
So what's really going on here?
Speaker 2 (07:19):
To me, this is a dead It's a dead giveaway
that his story doesn't add up right that tom Brady
was billboarded when he was brought in as a bit
owner of the Raiders, he was billed as the Messiah,
the Great Savior of the Raider franchise, which has been
in a deep dark place for a while. And the
(07:43):
argument was, we are going to listen. Mark Davis implied
that the Raiders are going to listen to Tom Brady,
that he is going to have a lot of influence
over everything the Silver and Black does, that his DNA
is going to be all over the franchise. That tom
Brady's gonna shadow the general manager, helping out the football
(08:06):
ops department.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
He's gonna do all that. And we know that Tom
Brady met with Matthew Stafford in a shack in Montana
to try to convince Matthew Stafford to come to the Raiders.
He failed.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
We've also heard that Tom Brady wanted Ben Johnson to
become the next coach of the Raiders. He was the
Lions offensive coordinator. There's also a theory that the Raiders
the reason they fired Antonio Pierce was because Tom Brady
had given the indication that the Raiders were going to
be able to hire Ben Johnson, and then Ben Johnson said,
screw you, I'm gonna go to the Bears, and so
then the Raiders were left hiring the oldest coach in
(08:41):
the NFL, Pete Carroll. So he whiffed swinging back a
swing about a whiff over two. So what happened between
Tom Brady and Shooter saying this is fascinating, is fascinating.
So Tom Brady wants you to believe reading the tea
leaves here. He wants you to believe that you know,
he's just he's just out there and he didn't have
(09:04):
any say in the draft at all. And he's like,
it's that that shaggy song from years ago, right, wasn't mate,
It wasn't me. I had another new wasn't me? So
Brady he doesn't want to step on Dion Sanders' toes,
Deon's friend of his, So he don't want to step
on his toes. And so he's using plausible deniability, good term,
(09:26):
plausible deniability. And he is like, ah, no, no, listen,
uh it was Pete Carroll, it was Mark Davis, it
was this GM who's my old friend from Michigan. They
were the ones that had the final say on all
draft decisions. Now, if you believe that, I would like
you to recommend, in fact, that you ran a place
(09:47):
over in a town called Suckersville, because you, my friend,
are going to be on the city council in Suckersville,
is what you're going to be. Yeah, So I think
he's more likely, more probable than not, and more likely
that Tom Brady put a warning label on Shouldar Sanders, saying, listen,
I know this guy. I've known him for a long time,
and he is a hazard. He is a bio hazard.
(10:10):
Do not draft, do not draft Sheddarth Sanders. So they
don't even have a real QB. I mean, everyone knows
Geno Smith's a joke.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
He's not. You're not trying to win if Gino smiths
your quarterback. The Raiders had seven chances, seven seven.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Chances to draft Shedter Sanders, and instead they selected a
motley crew of random players from around college football, which
to me is a dead give It's a dead giveaway. Now, furthermore,
we go to the heel of Monster in the room
and the heel of Monster in the room. We played
the clip earlier. There's some other clips from this conversation.
(10:47):
Tom Brady commenting on Skip Bayless as you heard we
played it earlier in the podcast here he was asked
about that and Skip Bayless's theory that Tom Brady was
behind Shooder Sanders and not be drafted by the Raiders,
and he said, quote, I know, well everyone's got every
(11:08):
you know. Brady said, that's the problem with the media.
Everyone can just say whatever the f they want. So
how do you grade the back and forth of Tom
Brady was really one sided on this one. Skip Bayless
throughout the first salvo and then tom Brady came back
and counter punched. So this was the OH show for
(11:30):
Skip Bayless, This was the OH Show. This was or
gas Mik with a capitol Oh. It is also interesting
that Tom Brady does not seem to support a free media, right.
I mean, he's he complained the media can say whatever
they want, which isn't that like Tom Brady's way of
saying he does not support the open media. He does
not support free speech and all. I think that's what
(11:50):
he's saying. That seems like a big deal that Tom
Brady does not support that, right man. Uh So A Bayless,
the gangster of the hot take game. He's been around
a while and he has been very critical of Tom
Brady for a long time. And because that makes good debate,
and that's the business that he's been in now, Brady
(12:13):
level headed, he's been very proud of the fact over
the years he always lies to the media, he never
gives him a straight answer and all that stuff, and
so he rarely claps back, rarely claps back. So why
did he clap back this time? The only acceptable answer
nerve damage. Nerve damage, right, this hit a nerve and
(12:34):
engaging with Skip Bayless. Brady couldn't answered that. I'm not
gonna talk about who cares about that? Whatever? Skip can
say whatever Skip wants. But Skip is a professional provocateur.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
That's what he does.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
And so if you're Tom Brady and everyone loves to
talk about how great you are and you're the greatest
quarterback of all time, and you're lowering yourself to Skip
Bayless's status and royals, I'm told, royals not done with commenters.
And you're Tom Brady, You're a royal in football and
this guy's a commoner, and like, what are you doing?
So Brady's response it actually gave credibility to Skip Bayless
(13:12):
and made him look petty and defensive and all that.
Speaker 1 (13:16):
All right.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Now, lastly, the obligatory Mallard monologue reference to Aaron Rogers
that's right, Aaron Rodgers. So we mentioned earlier Rodgers was
spotted at the Kentucky Derby. There's some internet conspiracy theorists
to believe he was.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Wearing a wedding ring. He's not, to our knowledge, been married.
So what does that mean?
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Is this why Rogers hasn't agreed to a contract with
the Steelers because he actually got married, and so he's
been dealing with that.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
He's a newlywed and that's why he didn't take the
job and all that.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yet, Well, the Steelers owner and president, we know, Art
Rooney the second has been very positive with his public comments,
and Mike Tomlin for the most part, has been positive
about Aaron Rodgers coming to Pittsburgh. Well, the part owner,
Thomas Toll, he threw out some different commentary on Power
(14:05):
Lunch c NBC's Power Lunch Show. I did not see
this show. I saw the clip which is making the
rounds in the interview with the owner. This is a
recent interview done by the Steelers minority owner on the
CNBC Business show.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
He gave this line.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
He said that the Steelers and this is not a
direct quote, I'm paraphrasing, but the courtship of Aaron Rodgers
and trying to get him into Pittsburgh is actually harder
than the talking point that he was there for. He said, quote,
I'm here to talk about AI artificial intelligence, and that
(14:48):
is more complex, meaning Aaron Rodgers is more complex than
artificial intelligence intelligence. All right, so let us discuss the
question what if any thing, What if anything do you
read into the Steelers minority owner saying that Aaron Rodgers
and his situation is more complicated than AI. So this
(15:11):
was a hostess product.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
It was the zinger.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
This is a good zinger like Google Quip, Raspberry singer, solid,
why not? And what he's really saying is we don't
really trust Aaron Rodgers. I'm not the owner of the team,
but we don't trust Rogers. And the human element is
unpredictable and all that, and it's a brain buster puzzle.
Now the Steelers are banking on Aaron Rodgers or their
(15:39):
backup plan, Plan B is Mason Rudolph, the red Nose
quarterback Mason Rudolph.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
The saga continues with.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Rogers, who has said a couple of times he's open,
he's not committal, He's ah, I might play, maybe I
won't play. There's no timeline and people are losing their
minds over this. The schedule is going to come out
next week. The schedule comes out, suppose there's a handshake
deal and the beat goes on and on and on.
(16:08):
It is the Ben Mahler Show. If you'd like to

Hanging out together. We thank you for spending some time
with us. You're working the third sho been with us
all night, or if you're jumping on the train at
this stop trying to get a jump on the traffic,
that is a wise move. Yeah, working overnight, you really
only have problems with the construction. But if I had
(17:16):
to work the dreaded nine to five, I would get
up early just to avoid traffic.
Speaker 1 (17:23):

Rick D's of Fox Sports Radio. Jonas knocks, that's an
outdated reference, right, yeah, man, he was like a big star,
(18:17):
but Rick D's was like a big radio start. Anyway,
let's get back to it, all right, let's get back
It's I Ben. We are hanging out together here. Wow,
I know what can Brown do for you?
Speaker 1 (18:26):
We'll get to that.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
And I do like looking at where the money is.
It's all about the money. Where the sharp beetters, where's
the public? We got double barrel action in the NBA playoffs.
The early game the Knickerbockers and the Celtics Game number two,
and that's at the Garden.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
That's right four.
Speaker 5 (18:50):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (18:51):
What time did they give?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Seven o'clock? And Celtics opened an eight and a half
point favorite. They are a ten and a half point favorite,
which means that this should be just a domination situation
based on the mean two and a half point two
point line move in favor of the Celtics. In Game two,
Celtics getting the sharp money. Almost seventy percent of the
(19:15):
cash is on the side of the Celtics. The public
it is a lean towards the Celtics, although it's not
as big as it is with the sharp better and
the Nuggets and Thunder. Game number two, Oklahoma City opened
a nine point favorite and they are currently favored by eleven.
It is interesting to know there is a split here
(19:38):
in this game. The sharp betters are on the Oklahoma
City Thunder laying the eleven. The public is going the
other way. They're taking the eleven points and the Denver Nuggets.
So that's interesting. Publics on the side of the Nuggets
and the sharp betters are on the side of Oklahoma City.
Remember that when you're watching the game tonight, Let's say
(20:01):
hello to who do we have? Let's go to Blind
Scott Is on the North End.
Speaker 8 (20:09):
Welcome everybody to the Blind Scott in Marcell and Brooklyn
radio segment where we got a Celtics Game two here
with all the Bostonians listening right now, I'm gonna bring
the thunder to Myrcell. Straighten up those garbage cans, Bostonians,
like you give care about your garbage job.
Speaker 7 (20:25):
You know.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Here's the thing about the Knicks. They don't stay the
chance against the Celtics tonight because the Celtics didn't even
bring any game to the first to the first game.
They didn't even show up at all. You know, tonight,
I've been listening to the show all night tonight. It's
been pretty good. I kind of liked it when somebody
Ben tried to do a good def for somebody and
they like spooks Ben a little bit, you know, like
(20:45):
and then it was expressed like this was a big deal.
You know, life's not that big of a deal for everybody.
Everybody in life likes to make a big deal about everything.
But I'm trying to do a segment right now about
autism and a Celtics fan and a New York Knicks fan.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
Hold I say here, Marcel and Brooklyn. Blind Scott says,
the Knicks are going to be obliterated by the Celtics.

Speaker 9 (25:52):
Yellow and he pulled.
Speaker 10 (25:54):
Hey, he revealed the Steeler colors. Chuck, right there, this
is gonna go viral. Oh my god, holy crap. Tell
you you're not lying, right, you're telling true.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
Don't lie to me.
Speaker 6 (26:13):
All right, Friday morning.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
I know you might not have been listening, but we
did a rant earlier. What is going on with load management?
There are people complaining they need more time between the
Derby and the Preakness and the Bellmont. How stupid is that?
Come on, Chuck, come on, that's to me, that's ridiculous. Anyway,
all right, I thank you, Chuck. All right, there you go.
Well that's it, we broke the news.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Wow.
Speaker 11 (26:36):
Well, what if he was actually like showing off pirate
colors and he's gonna change sports.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
See he's gonna play for the Pittsburgh Pirates. What about
the Penguins.
Speaker 12 (26:44):
Yeah, you know it could be the Penguins too.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
Fun fact, Pittsburgh the only city where all the sports
teams in that city have the same color company.
Speaker 12 (26:53):
They're all black and gold, black and.
Speaker 1 (26:54):
Gold, black and gold, black and gold. Yeah, all three
of the teams there.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
And if they get a basketball team someday, I'm sure,
given enough time, we might be around and be dead,
but at some point they'll have a basketball team and
they'll be back black and gold. To of course, if
you watched old movies, they did have basketball teams back.
And anyway, let's go to our Is it our cell
or our said? I think it's our said, but maybe
it's ourself. Hello, you're on Fox Sports? Or is this
our set or our cell? I knew it was our said,
(27:22):
I knew it, but I knew it. I knew this
guy's a legend.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Go ahead, our said, till the call I made the
other day.
Speaker 5 (27:28):
I wanted to make a point, and then I didn't
get around to it. You know, these guys had a
two cabs at a twenty game winning streak, best record
in the league at the time, and their top two
players said, we need a night off. What kind of
game are we playing out these where these children can't
(27:48):
put out a little effort to set a record. I'm
just dying with this.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Yeah, well, out of an abundance of caution.
Speaker 5 (27:58):
Oh, yeah, yeah, you can twenty five years old. I'm exhausted.
If I didn't get tired once in my life until
I was fifty seven years old.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
Yeah, no, listen, you're you're preaching the choir on this.
I fascinated that people. The thing that blows me away
is not that people are trying it, that so many
people think it's a great idea that they got all
figured out. And my favorite is when these teams do
load management and then players get hurt anyway. I mean,
so it's just like completely pointless. It's just a total
waste of everyone's time.
Speaker 5 (28:29):
If Indiana lost, If Indiana won one of the first
two games, I was gonna say they were gonna win
the series.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Well are you talking about Cleveland? If the Cleveland had
won one of the first two.
Speaker 9 (28:39):
Games, he said, there I called the other night before.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
Oh okay, you're after they get Yeah, well, now, I
mean they won both games, you figure that they're gonna win.
The Pacers were in one of the next two, so
it'll be three to one, and then the Cavs are
gonna have to win the last three.
Speaker 5 (28:55):
Yeah, they're not going to Uh. By the way, we
got a guy here at the gas station. Long. You know,
I'm not a homophobic. Almost safety and phobic is what
I am. We got a guy here at the gas station,
long hair, air rings, make up.
Speaker 10 (29:12):
Here we go.
Speaker 5 (29:13):
I'm thinking, why do you do this? He said, Well,
I just want to eat, drink and be merry.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Oh okay, there you go. Thank you? Are you got
your joking? Thank you? I appreciate that.
Speaker 5 (29:24):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Very nice. Yeah, there's our said from from Cleveland, and wow,
we're on a roll.
Speaker 12 (29:31):
That was a good joke. That was drink and be married.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
Okay, all right, I see what you did. Let's go
to Hunter, who's in Durham. What's going on?
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Hunter?
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Welcome? Hey man, Hey, hey Ben, what's going on?
Speaker 9 (29:48):
I gotta tell you I've been listening probably several years now,
and this has gotta be the Benny Award winner of
twenty twenty five.
Speaker 3 (29:56):
Chick we are going to win?
Speaker 1 (29:59):
Is it because of the Aaron Rodgers Hunter? Is it
because of the Aaron Rodgers breaking news?
Speaker 4 (30:04):
No?
Speaker 9 (30:04):
Well, the breaking news always helps. But the callers from
Charlie to Flin start. Marcel and I listened to a
lot of showsren to bring in the crew, and Lorena
is just becoming more of a star every time I listen,
she's her timing is is great.
Speaker 1 (30:24):
Now yeah, now, Hunter, you're going to give her a
big ego. We don't need that.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
There's enough people sending packages in the mail here that
she's not going to be able to walk in the building.
Speaker 1 (30:33):
Her head's going to be so big here.
Speaker 9 (30:35):
I understand that, and I and I follow that too.
But uh, I will say, I've been nervous. I've been
wanting to call for a while, but I didn't want
to call. Because I didn't I think I would have
gotten cook blocks because of wanting to give Lorena shout
out from our man justin.
Speaker 2 (30:51):
Yeah, it's very difficult hun her to follow Marcel and
Brooklyn or Mike the Leprechaun or I mean, these are legends.
It's very difficult to follow the quality of the calls
that we get on the show.
Speaker 9 (31:04):
And well we got from from Louigo just now. Uh yeah,
port of Hollery James first hour. But but I wanted,
I wanted to say, I wanted to finish it off
with Uh. I think part of the there in the
in the in the room today is you've got the
Lorena team working and that don't don't know what that means.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
There you go, all right, Oh very nice, all right,
thank you Hunter for thank you for calling.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
I think you missed a spot, but other than that,
you're good. All right, Thank you, buddy. I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Thanks for listening, and we'll hang up on you now
and move on. Let's say sweet a little too much,
a little too surpey. Let's go to Mike the Leprechaun.
What's going on, Mike the leperqun?
Speaker 4 (31:44):
Speaking of Surpey, Lorena picked Marcello over me in the
advice call him.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
Oh my god, marcel your thoughts, Mike the Leprechaun seems
upset that Lorena picked ticked you.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Did he fall asleep? Mar I think marcell fell asleep?
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Thank god? All right, go ahead, Mike, you're back. Go ahead,
Michael Lepard right.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
I'm a shoe guy. By the way, I have three
pairs of sneakers, workshoes, and Celtic crocs.
Speaker 6 (32:15):
So that's it. Rom is over. I do have to
do a quick shout out to my three money people
for the house.
Speaker 4 (32:21):
Rob and I have a song, a quick diddy about
a ghost.
Speaker 6 (32:24):
Can I do a quick didty?
Speaker 3 (32:26):
And Room is overrated.
Speaker 6 (32:27):
I'll talk about Room tomorrow. I thought it was a
Cardinals game.
Speaker 8 (32:30):
Anyway.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Rome's overrated. I'm a Jim. Rome's overrated, just Rome in general.
Speaker 4 (32:35):
Rome.
Speaker 6 (32:35):
I thought it was a Cardinals game.
Speaker 4 (32:37):
I went into this place and they were are you
are you?
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Are you in Rome?
Speaker 4 (32:42):
They're passing on cappuccinos.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
I thought it was a Cardinals baseball game.
Speaker 4 (32:49):
I want to do a shout out for Rob Caro
and Debbie. Here we go.
Speaker 6 (32:54):
Peter Maloney had a goat, A very fine goalt was he.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
He kept him in the parlor to keep him company.
When Dave Well, Peter was on a rock.
Speaker 6 (33:02):
Along came a bumblebee and still him on his tail.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Then Jinger Ale fight.
Speaker 11 (33:08):
Okay, thank you, thank you Ben for turning on. I
appreciate it, but I do want to give you a
hard time for putting it on in the first time.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
I know, I know, I'm terrible, But the call was
on hold.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
In my defense, so the call got screened. I would
not know the call was there. I do not screen
the calls. The call was screened, the call was put
the name was put in the system.
Speaker 1 (33:29):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
So what can Brown do for you now? Miguel on Fire,
who does drive one of those beautiful trucks, the Brown
Ups trucks. He says, this is what brown can do
for you. Well, that's not the story. So there's apparently
pac Man Jones that's an old football player from back
in the day, received a lot of phone calls, a
lot of phone calls because why why because of his
(33:56):
phone number being leaked by Antonio Brown while we're NFL play.
You want to take a guess how many phone calls
it is estimated pac Man Jones received after I think
the term for that is doxing.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
Is that the term you've got somebody's number? I think
you're maybe that's not the term.
Speaker 2 (34:11):
Anyway, I take a guess over under how many calls
did pac Man Jones receive after Antonio Brown posted his
personal phone number on social media?
Speaker 12 (34:22):
Seven and fifty. Ben, see, that's a.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Good answer there in it because you didn't go over
it's a solid answer. The correct answer over seventeen thousand calls.
That sounds like full craft.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Do we believe that seventeen thousand people made a phony
phone call too?
Speaker 11 (34:44):
Could you imagine looking down at your phone and seeing
that number wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
Your phone blow up?
Speaker 2 (34:49):
At seventeen thousand calls all coming in in a few minutes,
wouldn't that blow up your phone?
Speaker 12 (34:53):
I think that's more calls in the whole western half
of it.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
That's a lot of calls, right, that's a ton of calls.
That's too many calls. Like, that's insane amount of calls.
That's like, what are you doing type of call situation? Man?
