wonderful Monday. Here it is our number four feeling a
little bit green. Welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
We are in the air everywhere as we talk the
talk and are the Sultan of Sunrise, unless we're not
coast to coast, border to border and beyond on the
vast and ear poppingly powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Amminating live from.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
The Court, the Court of public Opinion, the Fox Sports
Radio Studios.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
That's right hanging out right here.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
As approved by Kathy in Madison and made possible apart
by our friends at ti 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 hazard protection with convenient installation
options like mobile tire installation, tire rack dot Com the
way tire boning should be.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
So our lead this hour. It's a It's a hybrid,
the All.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Star Breaking Baseball and some pro bouncy ball news. No,
not another malle monologue about Lebron James, the Final Four.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Lebron's wish list. He wants to play for the Warriors,
the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Don't blame him, the Calves or the Mavericks, but this
is about another NBA star as the world turns in Boston.
The Celtics star Jason Tatum hobbling, unable to play well,
likely miss the majority, if not the entire upcoming NBA season.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Well.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Tatum, though, has not been sitting idly on the sidelines.
We are told that he is attempting to recruit Damian Lillard,
trying to get Damian Lillard to come to Boston, using
these fans golly effect to try to get Lillard to
come over.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
So if you didn't hear about this, maybe not.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Tatum has been actively recruiting Dame Lillard to come back
to Boston place he did not want to play before.
The market is limited for Damian Lillard because he also
is on team Snapcrackle Pop goes the Achilles. Yeah he's out,
so he's gonna play limited games. Also a lot to
(03:25):
talk about there Tatum and Lillard when it comes to
Popped Achilles. So let us discuss the question. What is
the question on everyone's mind when it comes to Jason
Tatum recruiting Dame time to the Celtics. So I've got
prom Night, Pink Inflatable Flamingo and Cracker jack Box and
(03:46):
we will combine all of these things together, and we're
gonna make the babaganooshe We're gonna make the Boba goose.
So to kick off, here the question on everyone's mind.
This is very straightforward here, this one. How has Amy
and Lillard's opinion on New England change? Like why would
anything be different now than it was a couple of
(04:06):
years ago when he didn't want to play there?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
And this is the same Dame Lillard who was in
Portland and wanted out, wanted to go to Miami and
made it crystal clear though even though he didn't go
to Miami, he made it crystal clear at the time
he had how much interest was it five percent interest?
Ten percent interest in the Celtics? How about zero percent
interest in playing in Boston? Did not want to do it, right,
(04:32):
didn't like the town, didn't like the fit, didn't like
the culture, didn't like any of that, didn't want to
play for the Celtics.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Right.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
And so now suddenly a couple of years and an
injury later, and now we're supposed to believe that he's
gonna cozy up to playing in Boston and he wants
to do it. He's all excited about it and all
that stuff. No, plus, would he at this point even
be the second fiddle to Jason Tatum or would he
be the third the third wheel with Jalen Brown and
(05:02):
Jason Tatum.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So the idea that there's something.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
To this, eh, spare me, spare me on this man
Lillard is much more likely to go back down the
Oregon Trail to the Trailblazers, or go to the Golden
State Warriors, or even go to Miami.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Finally, then he is the Boston It's just more realistic.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Nevertheless, I did get the kick out of the fact
that Jason Tatum, who's got one healthy leg, he fancies
himself the chief recruiter of the Celtics. And you know
that the camp of Jason Tatum made sure this got
out right.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
This was a leak.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It was a leak from Jason Tatum's camp to try
to make him look good. See, he's hurt, but he's
still trying to make the Celtics better. He's out there,
he's hurt, he's acting like it's what prom night Jason
Tatum and Dame Lillard is the prettiest girl left without
a dance partner.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
So there's like all right, we'll help out.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
This of course comes after your lived went to Milwaukee
and it was a hot stew. What a hot stew
that was there in Milwaukee divorce papers and just was cold.
Never fit in there with the Greek freak. Now it
would be hilarious. And I had said this in a
previous edition of this show. It would be absolutely hilarious.
(06:21):
If Brad Stevens' goal was to create at the all
aging high usage team players that are hobbled. Just put
together all the players that have bad achilles. The check
engine light is blinking on the dashboard and bring him in.
Just go full injury tent mode if you're the Boston Celtics,
(06:45):
and do it. Somewhere Boogie Cousins is walking around and
bring him back, right. I know he's not playing anymore,
but bring him not in real basketball. Klay Thompson. I
see he's got a new lady friend. Go see if
Clay wants to play for the Celtics. Why not Brandon
Row He couldn't make it back to see if Brandon
Roy's out there somewhere, see if he wants to come
back for Crude.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Away away, away away away, why not?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Just remember when dametime Damian Lillard said no the very
first time a couple of years ago. Uh, he meant it.
I don't think he was kidding. I don't think he
was a joke by Damian Lillard. And if he said yes. Now,
if all of a sudden you say presto and he
says aberkadab or yes, then you have to ask the
(07:30):
question why. And could the answer to that question be
because nobody else is really all that into him. There's
a desperation situation and the other teams have like cooled
on him. And so all right, now for themore we
go to the NFL, that National Football League. We head
to Pittsburg, PA, home of the Terrible Towels and a
(07:53):
Terrible lea average football team. So the Steelers reports over
the weekend saying that things have changed in the land
of the insert things have changed. Question. These Steelers are
said to be inquiring. They inquiring minds would like to
know they are inquiring as to TJ. Watt's possible trade value.
(08:16):
Can you put this into context that the Steelers are
putting out feelers and say, just in case we traded
this guy.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
What would we get back? What kind of goodies? What
kind of grab bag would we get back for TJ. Watt?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
So to put her into context beyond a reasonable doubt.
Beyond a reasonable doubt, you don't window shop your franchise
defensive player.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
You don't do that unless.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Something has changed, something has gone sideways here behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
You never sell.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
High on a guy who's your brand, right he is
the identity of the Pittsburgh Steers. Aaron Rodgers is a
hobo football hobo at this point passing through and DK
Metcalf hasn't played a game yet there.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So the name value is TJ. Watt.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
He brings the name value and all that stuff. So
you're gonna sell that guy. He is the Pittsburgh Steelers
right now, for better or worse. And here's the rub
on this, the inside skiddy, if you will.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
They're leaking this. I always try to find out who's
leaking the store.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I mentioned that Jason Tatum story that was pretty obviously
he came from Jason Tatum's camp that they leaked it
out there to make him seem like, oh, he's all in,
he's going forward, he loves the Celtics, he's recruiting Dame Lillard.
So on this one who leaked the story. Well, you
would say that it more likely than not came from
the Pittsburgh Steelers, that they were the ones that intentionally
(09:48):
leaked the story. And I would say there's really no
doubt in my head that it came from the Steelers.
This is a el classico, El classico NFL front office move.
It's called postering. It's called posturing. The Steelers are like, well,
we have we thought we had a deal done with TJ.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Watt. He didn't agree to the contract. So I'm just
gonna float this out there. I'm gonna float this out
there like.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
A giant pink flamingo inflatable pink flamingo in the pool,
is what I'm gonna do. Put this out there and
see what the market thinks, and I'll make sure it
gets out. And then TJ. Watt's gonna feel the pressure
and all that stuff, and yes, some fans are gonna
lose their mind and all that stuff. You walk it
back and say, oh, no, oh, no, we were just listening.
(10:34):
We would never actively shop TJ.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Watt.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Never, Yeah, your nose grows like Pinocchio and all that stuff.
It's baloney with a capital B. Bolooney with a capital B.
You don't make those calls unless, okay, unless there is
some serious consideration and if you hear the right answer
when you when you're putting out feels like you're floating
(10:57):
that giant inflatable pink flamingo, and you hear the right answer,
you will then pull the trigger on the trade. You
want to see who bites? You just admit it. You
want to see who bites. Now, that's fine. You want
to see who bites and bite, bite, nibble, nibble, nibble, bibble,
all that stuff. But the other issues if you don't
make the trade, it's still not guaranteed that Watt's going
(11:19):
to be traded. If you don't make the trade, then
this creates other problems. Now you're not playing mad and
it's not fantasy football. It's real human beings, very emotional,
very emotional. It's a slap in the face. You know,
out dare we're going to trade this franchise player. What's wrong?
Are you out of your bloody mind?
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Now?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I am not saying by any means that TJ. Watt
Is is untradable. Everyone can be traded at any time.
There's no one who's untradeable. If the Steelers heard the
Godfather offer multiple first round picks, I say, three first
round picks and some other young defensive player.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Then TJ.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Watt would be given a one way ticket out of
Pittsburgh and see you later, get out of here. Bye bye.
All right, now, last thing we go now to the boardroom.
That's right, not the boring room, but the boardroom which
is off in the boring room. The NFL Players Association
under siege. Under siege. Now the executive committee. They were
(12:24):
caught red handed, hand in the cookie jar. According to
a Pamblotory podcast, Guy Pomblo toy the troublemaker. So he claimed, hey,
I've got all the receipts here, got all the receipts,
and that the NFL Players Association was cozying.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Up with the owners. They were in.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Cahoot's bearing a story about artificially eliminating or not eliminated,
but limiting salaries. So the Executive Committee of the NFL
Players Association, in a message sent to their members but
of course released publicly why not why not, expressed full
support for the executive director, Lloyd Howell Junior.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
The plot.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Thickens denied. They denied that it had asked him to resign.
Of course, the firestorm over the last part of last week,
this guy, Lloyd Howell Junior, Lloyd Howell Junior being accused
of getting in bed in bed with the NFL owners
working incohots. Allegedly he's supposed to fight. The job is
(13:36):
to fight the NFL owners, but as the person running
the NFLPA, he instead decided to circle the old wagons. There,
lock arms and sing kumbayah.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
If you will.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
There a joint statement written in the universal language of
damage control. Corporate spin is what it is. So how
do you parse the words? How do you parse the
words of the nflpa's public defense of their boss. So
I read this and I'll translate it for you. I
(14:11):
can translate it. I have the microphone of the headphones.
I can translate it. So not only can I translate it,
I am going to turn to an old, reliable friend
that I haven't used in a long time, my decoder ring.
And I got this decoder ring years ago. It's the
same decoder ring that came in a box of cracker jacks,
(14:31):
and it's surrounded by Carmel coded popcorn and nuts peanuts.
So the NFL statement, we categorically reject the false reports.
That was the statement from the NFL Players Association. Now
let's translate that. That means, according to my super trusty
Crackerjack box ring, my translator ring, that means.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
That the reports are true that you've heard about. And
we are.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Hoping that if we say categorically enough time times, some
dope in the media will accidentally accidentally mistake the conviction
for honesty. So we just keep using big words. Categorically
is a big word. We'll go with the category. Next up,
it said, insinuating doubts within the committee. Insinuating doubts within
(15:20):
this committee was the next line.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
We used our.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Cracker Jack's trans ring. There the ring we use the
the Dakota ring from the cracker Jocks back box. And
this is the part here, so insinuating doubt within the committee, right,
this is the part where this is the same committee
where the members were already privately a quoded to that report,
(15:47):
privately distancing themselves from Howell, like they were trying to
get away with someone who has the bonic play from
someone who has the bondic play. So you've got that.
Next line was we further reject attempts to mischaracterize. So
this is the part of the statement where the gas
lighting begins. Using my decoder ring, this is where the
(16:10):
gas lighting begins because what exactly has been mischaracterized? Does
anyone know that anyone will raise their hand what has
been mischaracterized here exactly? So this guy Howell, who's in
charge of the NFLPA right now, the private meetings with
the NFL executives, that was what was wrong there is
that what he's getting at now the perception among the
(16:33):
rank and file.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I talk about people upset and all.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That the rank and file with the players, not the fans,
not the owners, with the players is that they have
been taking up poop creek, that they've been sold a
bill of goods here, and it's about.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Revenue and some other things. And so the deliberate.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Process, if you will, sounds like it's like delayed accountability
by the NFL, LPA and all this stuff. And then
they said we will not engage in a rush to
judgment was the other line that they used there, which
is always good. Why would they rush to anything, Why
would they rush to anything? Just take your time.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
La la la la la la la la la la
la la la will just slow walk slow casual well sache.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Down the runway is what we're going to do, and
slow and study, slow and study, that's what we're gonna do,
and all that stuff. While the television money flows in
and the salaries flowing and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Now, meanwhile, the.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Actual concerns of the union, the players in the union, right,
which are what they are upset. They want guaranteed, fully
guaranteed contracts. They're not getting that. They want extra health benefits,
they're not getting that. They want get rid of turf.
They only want grass. That's almost impossible. And so all
of those different issues, those get pushed off to the
(17:55):
side while slow in study, slow in study, they try
to figure it all out and all that stuff. And
then they said we believe in and remain committed. They
said that about the guy running the NFL Players Association,
So who exactly. I assume they're talking about the person
running the group, but they didn't name the person. So
(18:17):
it's like the magic eight ball, the all mighty powerful,
mighty powerful.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Magic eight ball, non committal language.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
They used all the weasel terms, all the legal weasel terms,
tossed them all out there. So the NFLPA to make
this even longer but shorter at the same time, the
NFLPA just merely wants you to know that even though
there are flames and there's smoke, the house is not
on fire. You can see the flames, you can see
the smoke, but the house is not on fire. And
(18:47):
it's not just a little bit of smoke. It's like thick,
black smoke pillowing out of the building. It is the

was drink morganners.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Okay, all right, thank you, all right, I'm hanging up
on you. Go away.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Let's say to uh do we have here? Let's go
to Shane in the moining, the very polarizing Shane and
they Shane, how did you acquire so many people that
hate you?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Shane morning, Ben, I really don't know. I had a
question for you though about the MVP. What does cal
Rawly have to do to win MVP other than win
the division? Does he have to hit seventy homers more.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Well, seventy home runs. If Aaron Judge doesn't hit seventy
home runs, that'll get you the MVP if he hit
seventy home runs and the Marners are a playoff team
or in the playoff race, I think we got.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
To win the division minimum.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, I mean, listen, cal Rally's on pace to hit
a ridiculous amount homese. You figure the dog days of
summer coming up after the All Star break, he's gonna
he's gonna slow down, right, That's usually what happens after
the All Star break. The numbers offense becomes.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Well, what does that annoy?
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Then eighty four wins.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
The poto is gonna wet himself.
Speaker 11 (27:57):
So you can't be too good?
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Well, yeah, you know, the whole Mariner philosophy is to
not be too good. That's right.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
You just want to be competitive. You want to win
fifty four percent of the games. But right now cal
Rawley's on paste. It's sixty four home runs, So that's
that's pretty good.
Speaker 5 (28:13):
MVP.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
It's a long shot because Aaron Judge is putting up
massive members. All this is that? I mean, I hearing
that voice in the back. Is this a tag team duel?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Here's that?
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Don't know?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
You know, women can't let men just talk a donut you.
Speaker 9 (28:28):
In your studio that does it too.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Oh man, that's a sho I think that was a
shot at you, Lorena.
Speaker 9 (28:34):
Shane and des Moines loves me and all women around
the world, don't you, Shane.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
I really can't say that I love you, Lorena.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That's oh my god, vision you can't.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
I respect you a healthy amountains.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
There we go. That's perfect.
Speaker 11 (28:48):
You're a solid person.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Okay, thank you, all right, we'll hang up on you.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
If he hits sixty four home runs, he's gotta he's
got to get it right.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
No, if Aaron Judge hit sixty home runs, he's going
to get it right. How many he's a judge on
pace for cal Rai's on pace for sixty four he
leads baseball home runs. So doing the math on that,
then Aaron Judges he can't. Aaron Judge is not going
to hit sixty four. He's not on a pace for
sixty four home runs for that way.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
Right, I mean he's he's a little bit behind that pace.
But I mean what Judge's MVP year was what sixty.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Two judges on pace for fifty nine home runs and
one hundred and thirty seven RBIs and he plays in
New York every home game.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
So how do you beat that? He hit sixty four?
He says, he's around sixty. Judge will be your MVP.
Give him the MVP.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Let's go to who do we have here? Eni Meeni,
miney Moe. Let's say hello to Keg drinking Steve, Hello,
Keg drinking Steve. Oh.
Speaker 12 (29:51):
I love Lorena Dandy loves from lorenallaynel Be Poppy loves
yea Yo. What about the Savior of the w of
the NBA ben uh He. He went on the court
and told told Junior Lebron that Daddy can't save you.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Now.
Speaker 12 (30:13):
The reason they're taking him out is that they're going
to Caitlin. Him is he's gonna get He's gonna get
Caitlan in the summer league.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
What do you what are you talking about? I don't
even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 12 (30:23):
There is going to be a revelation. This is gonna
be a revelation for all the lazy, malcontents millionaires in
the NBA, A white guy with game coming in and
calling them out on their crap.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, you're talking about Cooper flag, is what you're talking Okay,
the Great White Hope Cooper Flag.
Speaker 13 (30:44):
Yes, he goes in and said and starts going in
and going at Lebrick's son, saying, Daddy, daddy, Daddy ain't
gonna help you more, Daddy ain't gonna help you.
Speaker 12 (30:57):
And I can't believe I love a duke this much.
You watch, this guy is going to be This guy
is going to be the number one target.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
You've just put the whammy on you just put them
on him, and I'm happy though you're not ripping Tom Brady.
Although Brady. I saw Brady was at that soccer thing
on Sunday. Yeah, he was in the booth with the
box with President Trump and there were some other big
wigs there, the head of some soccer I think the
(31:32):
head of FIFA was there.
Speaker 12 (31:34):
The midlife Cristis continues, But Ben, this is going to
this is going to be the Larry Bird moment of
the of the NBA. They've lost forty percent of their viewership.
This is going to bring you all back.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I know, all right, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Blind Scott is in Boston. Hello, Blind Scott, welcome.
Speaker 9 (31:54):
Oh hey, yeah, that was a good story. So you
went out to eat with your in laws and that
made you wait twenty minutes before.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
They brought it. It was thirty seven minutes. It was
a mud pie. I looked at my watch. I was like,
I didn't really want to eat dessert, but my my
mother in law wanted dessert, so she ordered a mud
pie for the table, like a slice of mud pie.
And it took thirty seven minutes for the pie to arrive.
Thirty seven minutes of my life I sat around waiting
(32:22):
for a mud pie.
Speaker 9 (32:24):
Yeah, So what I would have done is I would
have maybe got up and talked to the server and
said that you were you know, maybe you were out
on a date and you needed a discount on the
bill because your in laws were really upset at you
and it might cause divorce. You know, you should have
worked that a little bit. Or you should have said,
you know, I'm Ben Maller and.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Oh that always works whenever you start a sentence with
you know, I'm Ben Mallor. You know, you're getting some
good stuff.
Speaker 9 (32:45):
That is the people ever asked you what's the name
of that show you're on all again? People say that
all the time when they see you, and you're like,
it's hard to be like, that's the Ben Mallor show,
you know, dude, This Red Talks team is really on fineite.
Like the Red Talks buzz hasn't been much for years,
but you can walk this three now and hear people
talk in red sox and stuff like the thing about
(33:06):
the WNBA. The reason why we don't talk about on radio,
it's because it's not relevant on radio. They have ratings
that show. As soon as you start talking about it,
people shut it off, you know, because nobody understands what's
going on in the WIBA. And then the thing with
Cooper Flagg is it's just as polarizing as a WNBA.
And Jerome tried to compare him to some guy with
diabetes that played in the NBA. That was the craziest
(33:29):
call ever, you know what I mean, These calls might
have been awful, you know, like it doesn't get much
worse than this. I can't believe that talent show has
come up next week?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Like are you are you in by the ways, blub blanche,
Do you have an act for the talent show?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Are you going to do something?
Speaker 11 (33:41):
Well?
Speaker 9 (33:42):
I will enter the comedy talent show bracket if you need.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
A if this' well, I don't really don't need anything,
but if you have something you want to add, if
you think you can win the.
Speaker 9 (33:49):
No comedian, I can go against Surfer Tod like Todd's
not Serfotag is not a real comedian.
Speaker 11 (33:54):
He's a dude.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
By the way, it's Todd in ser Todd in the
is he entered the comedy thing?
Speaker 8 (34:01):
Yette s Tod, I have not received any correspondence.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Okay, so Surfer TODs not in. He's not in yet.
Speaker 11 (34:07):
You go to order.
Speaker 9 (34:07):
Pretend people like people that pretend to be social media starts,
people that pretend to dislike people on the show when
it's not real. All these people are fair game during
comedy hour. You got this guy Jayscoo, great guy, great musician,
and he's got to some other guy that just dances
around next to him like Jimmy Sanlely has no talent.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
All right, all right, please, let's say hello to Tony

what to life?
Speaker 11 (35:16):
This guy's had, yes, sir, two tours with reconnaissance Marines
in Vietnam. Yeah, and my my drill instructor at MCRD
San Diego in nineteen sixty seven, was the iconic.
Speaker 9 (35:33):
Ari or may you.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Know that is Lorena? You ever heard of him?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
The most famous drill sergeant of all drill sergeants. You
don't watch any old movies or anything like that. No, really,
you're missing out one of the all time great characters.
And it was his, a real life drill sergeant who
they wasn't the story. They couldn't find Wayne anyone else
who was as good as him, So he got the
job in the movie.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Was it for Full Metal Jacket, right, I think it
Full Metal.
Speaker 11 (36:00):
Jackets from Yes, Sir Stanley Stanley Kubrick, the director cast
him as the drill Sergeant Hartman in the movie Full
Metal Jacket. And like I like I tell people today,
I can I can still. I can still see indentation
on my forehead from his campaign cap right on my
(36:25):
forehead in nineteen sixty seven. But anyway, I don't want
to take a lot of time. But you mentioned Ben,
I heard earlier that you have a bulldog.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
I do.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I have an English bulldog named Moxie.
Speaker 11 (36:38):
Yeah, Maxie, the missus and I we have two bulldogs
we have.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
Uh.
Speaker 11 (36:48):
One is named Winston and the other's named Maggie for
Marga that Thatcher and Winston Churchill, two iconic Bridish prime minister.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Yeah, that's right, sure.
Speaker 11 (36:59):
And the reason why is, like I always say, you
know why, we say God bless Fredno State School Nursing
because Prono State Mascar is.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
The That's right, the bulla and old pol Eddie Fresno
State alumnus as well. All right, well, thank you Wayne

my list for this weekend. Yeah. And the Drill.

guy that's a real life Jewell Starge. And our friend
Wayne when he was a young lad in marine training.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
We are in the air everywhere as we talk the
talk and are the Sultan of Sunrise, unless we're not
coast to coast, border to border and beyond on the
vast and ear poppingly powerful microphones of FSR.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Amminating live from.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
The Court, the Court of public Opinion, the Fox Sports
Radio Studios.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
That's right hanging out right here.

options like mobile tire installation, tire rack dot Com the
way tire boning should be.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
So our lead this hour. It's a It's a hybrid,
the All.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Star Breaking Baseball and some pro bouncy ball news. No,
not another malle monologue about Lebron James, the Final Four.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Lebron's wish list. He wants to play for the Warriors,
the Clippers.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Don't blame him, the Calves or the Mavericks, but this
is about another NBA star as the world turns in Boston.
The Celtics star Jason Tatum hobbling, unable to play well,
likely miss the majority, if not the entire upcoming NBA season.
Speaker 2 (02:46):
Well.
Speaker 1 (02:46):
Tatum, though, has not been sitting idly on the sidelines.
We are told that he is attempting to recruit Damian Lillard,
trying to get Damian Lillard to come to Boston, using
these fans golly effect to try to get Lillard to
come over.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
So if you didn't hear about this, maybe not.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Tatum has been actively recruiting Dame Lillard to come back
to Boston place he did not want to play before.
The market is limited for Damian Lillard because he also
is on team Snapcrackle Pop goes the Achilles. Yeah he's out,
so he's gonna play limited games. Also a lot to
(03:25):
talk about there Tatum and Lillard when it comes to
Popped Achilles. So let us discuss the question. What is
the question on everyone's mind when it comes to Jason
Tatum recruiting Dame time to the Celtics. So I've got
prom Night, Pink Inflatable Flamingo and Cracker jack Box and
(03:46):
we will combine all of these things together, and we're
gonna make the babaganooshe We're gonna make the Boba goose.
So to kick off, here the question on everyone's mind.
This is very straightforward here, this one. How has Amy
and Lillard's opinion on New England change? Like why would
anything be different now than it was a couple of
(04:06):
years ago when he didn't want to play there?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
And this is the same Dame Lillard who was in
Portland and wanted out, wanted to go to Miami and
made it crystal clear though even though he didn't go
to Miami, he made it crystal clear at the time
he had how much interest was it five percent interest?
Ten percent interest in the Celtics? How about zero percent
interest in playing in Boston? Did not want to do it, right,
(04:32):
didn't like the town, didn't like the fit, didn't like
the culture, didn't like any of that, didn't want to
play for the Celtics.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Right.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
And so now suddenly a couple of years and an
injury later, and now we're supposed to believe that he's
gonna cozy up to playing in Boston and he wants
to do it. He's all excited about it and all
that stuff. No, plus, would he at this point even
be the second fiddle to Jason Tatum or would he
be the third the third wheel with Jalen Brown and
(05:02):
Jason Tatum.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
So the idea that there's something.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
To this, eh, spare me, spare me on this man
Lillard is much more likely to go back down the
Oregon Trail to the Trailblazers, or go to the Golden
State Warriors, or even go to Miami.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Finally, then he is the Boston It's just more realistic.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Now.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Nevertheless, I did get the kick out of the fact
that Jason Tatum, who's got one healthy leg, he fancies
himself the chief recruiter of the Celtics. And you know
that the camp of Jason Tatum made sure this got
out right.
Speaker 2 (05:41):
This was a leak.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
It was a leak from Jason Tatum's camp to try
to make him look good. See, he's hurt, but he's
still trying to make the Celtics better. He's out there,
he's hurt, he's acting like it's what prom night Jason
Tatum and Dame Lillard is the prettiest girl left without
a dance partner.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
So there's like all right, we'll help out.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
This of course comes after your lived went to Milwaukee
and it was a hot stew. What a hot stew
that was there in Milwaukee divorce papers and just was cold.
Never fit in there with the Greek freak. Now it
would be hilarious. And I had said this in a
previous edition of this show. It would be absolutely hilarious.
(06:21):
If Brad Stevens' goal was to create at the all
aging high usage team players that are hobbled. Just put
together all the players that have bad achilles. The check
engine light is blinking on the dashboard and bring him in.
Just go full injury tent mode if you're the Boston Celtics,
(06:45):
and do it. Somewhere Boogie Cousins is walking around and
bring him back, right. I know he's not playing anymore,
but bring him not in real basketball. Klay Thompson. I
see he's got a new lady friend. Go see if
Clay wants to play for the Celtics. Why not Brandon
Row He couldn't make it back to see if Brandon
Roy's out there somewhere, see if he wants to come
back for Crude.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Away away, away away away, why not?
Speaker 5 (07:09):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Just remember when dametime Damian Lillard said no the very
first time a couple of years ago. Uh, he meant it.
I don't think he was kidding. I don't think he
was a joke by Damian Lillard. And if he said yes. Now,
if all of a sudden you say presto and he
says aberkadab or yes, then you have to ask the
(07:30):
question why. And could the answer to that question be
because nobody else is really all that into him. There's
a desperation situation and the other teams have like cooled
on him. And so all right, now for themore we
go to the NFL, that National Football League. We head
to Pittsburg, PA, home of the Terrible Towels and a
(07:53):
Terrible lea average football team. So the Steelers reports over
the weekend saying that things have changed in the land
of the insert things have changed. Question. These Steelers are
said to be inquiring. They inquiring minds would like to
know they are inquiring as to TJ. Watt's possible trade value.
(08:16):
Can you put this into context that the Steelers are
putting out feelers and say, just in case we traded
this guy.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
What would we get back? What kind of goodies? What
kind of grab bag would we get back for TJ. Watt?
Speaker 1 (08:30):
So to put her into context beyond a reasonable doubt.
Beyond a reasonable doubt, you don't window shop your franchise
defensive player.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
You don't do that unless.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Something has changed, something has gone sideways here behind the scenes.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
You never sell.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
High on a guy who's your brand, right he is
the identity of the Pittsburgh Steers. Aaron Rodgers is a
hobo football hobo at this point passing through and DK
Metcalf hasn't played a game yet there.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So the name value is TJ. Watt.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
He brings the name value and all that stuff. So
you're gonna sell that guy. He is the Pittsburgh Steelers
right now, for better or worse. And here's the rub
on this, the inside skiddy, if you will.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
They're leaking this. I always try to find out who's
leaking the store.
Speaker 1 (09:25):
I mentioned that Jason Tatum story that was pretty obviously
he came from Jason Tatum's camp that they leaked it
out there to make him seem like, oh, he's all in,
he's going forward, he loves the Celtics, he's recruiting Dame Lillard.
So on this one who leaked the story. Well, you
would say that it more likely than not came from
the Pittsburgh Steelers, that they were the ones that intentionally
(09:48):
leaked the story. And I would say there's really no
doubt in my head that it came from the Steelers.
This is a el classico, El classico NFL front office move.
It's called postering. It's called posturing. The Steelers are like, well,
we have we thought we had a deal done with TJ.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Watt. He didn't agree to the contract. So I'm just
gonna float this out there. I'm gonna float this out
there like.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
A giant pink flamingo inflatable pink flamingo in the pool,
is what I'm gonna do. Put this out there and
see what the market thinks, and I'll make sure it
gets out. And then TJ. Watt's gonna feel the pressure
and all that stuff, and yes, some fans are gonna
lose their mind and all that stuff. You walk it
back and say, oh, no, oh, no, we were just listening.
(10:34):
We would never actively shop TJ.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Watt.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Never, Yeah, your nose grows like Pinocchio and all that stuff.
It's baloney with a capital B. Bolooney with a capital B.
You don't make those calls unless, okay, unless there is
some serious consideration and if you hear the right answer
when you when you're putting out feels like you're floating
(10:57):
that giant inflatable pink flamingo, and you hear the right answer,
you will then pull the trigger on the trade. You
want to see who bites? You just admit it. You
want to see who bites. Now, that's fine. You want
to see who bites and bite, bite, nibble, nibble, nibble, bibble,
all that stuff. But the other issues if you don't
make the trade, it's still not guaranteed that Watt's going
(11:19):
to be traded. If you don't make the trade, then
this creates other problems. Now you're not playing mad and
it's not fantasy football. It's real human beings, very emotional,
very emotional. It's a slap in the face. You know,
out dare we're going to trade this franchise player. What's wrong?
Are you out of your bloody mind?
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Now?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
I am not saying by any means that TJ. Watt
Is is untradable. Everyone can be traded at any time.
There's no one who's untradeable. If the Steelers heard the
Godfather offer multiple first round picks, I say, three first
round picks and some other young defensive player.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Then TJ.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
Watt would be given a one way ticket out of
Pittsburgh and see you later, get out of here. Bye bye.
All right, now, last thing we go now to the boardroom.
That's right, not the boring room, but the boardroom which
is off in the boring room. The NFL Players Association
under siege. Under siege. Now the executive committee. They were
(12:24):
caught red handed, hand in the cookie jar. According to
a Pamblotory podcast, Guy Pomblo toy the troublemaker. So he claimed, hey,
I've got all the receipts here, got all the receipts,
and that the NFL Players Association was cozying.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
Up with the owners. They were in.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Cahoot's bearing a story about artificially eliminating or not eliminated,
but limiting salaries. So the Executive Committee of the NFL
Players Association, in a message sent to their members but
of course released publicly why not why not, expressed full
support for the executive director, Lloyd Howell Junior.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
The plot.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Thickens denied. They denied that it had asked him to resign.
Of course, the firestorm over the last part of last week,
this guy, Lloyd Howell Junior, Lloyd Howell Junior being accused
of getting in bed in bed with the NFL owners
working incohots. Allegedly he's supposed to fight. The job is
(13:36):
to fight the NFL owners, but as the person running
the NFLPA, he instead decided to circle the old wagons. There,
lock arms and sing kumbayah.
Speaker 2 (13:49):
If you will.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
There a joint statement written in the universal language of
damage control. Corporate spin is what it is. So how
do you parse the words? How do you parse the
words of the nflpa's public defense of their boss. So
I read this and I'll translate it for you. I
(14:11):
can translate it. I have the microphone of the headphones.
I can translate it. So not only can I translate it,
I am going to turn to an old, reliable friend
that I haven't used in a long time, my decoder ring.
And I got this decoder ring years ago. It's the
same decoder ring that came in a box of cracker jacks,
(14:31):
and it's surrounded by Carmel coded popcorn and nuts peanuts.
So the NFL statement, we categorically reject the false reports.
That was the statement from the NFL Players Association. Now
let's translate that. That means, according to my super trusty
Crackerjack box ring, my translator ring, that means.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
That the reports are true that you've heard about. And
we are.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Hoping that if we say categorically enough time times, some
dope in the media will accidentally accidentally mistake the conviction
for honesty. So we just keep using big words. Categorically
is a big word. We'll go with the category. Next up,
it said, insinuating doubts within the committee. Insinuating doubts within
(15:20):
this committee was the next line.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
We used our.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
Cracker Jack's trans ring. There the ring we use the
the Dakota ring from the cracker Jocks back box. And
this is the part here, so insinuating doubt within the committee, right,
this is the part where this is the same committee
where the members were already privately a quoded to that report,
(15:47):
privately distancing themselves from Howell, like they were trying to
get away with someone who has the bonic play from
someone who has the bondic play. So you've got that.
Next line was we further reject attempts to mischaracterize. So
this is the part of the statement where the gas
lighting begins. Using my decoder ring, this is where the
(16:10):
gas lighting begins because what exactly has been mischaracterized? Does
anyone know that anyone will raise their hand what has
been mischaracterized here exactly? So this guy Howell, who's in
charge of the NFLPA right now, the private meetings with
the NFL executives, that was what was wrong there is
that what he's getting at now the perception among the
(16:33):
rank and file.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
I talk about people upset and all.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That the rank and file with the players, not the fans,
not the owners, with the players is that they have
been taking up poop creek, that they've been sold a
bill of goods here, and it's about.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Revenue and some other things. And so the deliberate.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Process, if you will, sounds like it's like delayed accountability
by the NFL, LPA and all this stuff. And then
they said we will not engage in a rush to
judgment was the other line that they used there, which
is always good. Why would they rush to anything, Why
would they rush to anything? Just take your time.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
La la la la la la la la la la
la la la will just slow walk slow casual well sache.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Down the runway is what we're going to do, and
slow and study, slow and study, that's what we're gonna do,
and all that stuff. While the television money flows in
and the salaries flowing and all that stuff.
Speaker 2 (17:32):
Now, meanwhile, the.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Actual concerns of the union, the players in the union, right,
which are what they are upset. They want guaranteed, fully
guaranteed contracts. They're not getting that. They want extra health benefits,
they're not getting that. They want get rid of turf.
They only want grass. That's almost impossible. And so all
of those different issues, those get pushed off to the
(17:55):
side while slow in study, slow in study, they try
to figure it all out and all that stuff. And
then they said we believe in and remain committed. They
said that about the guy running the NFL Players Association,
So who exactly. I assume they're talking about the person
running the group, but they didn't name the person. So
(18:17):
it's like the magic eight ball, the all mighty powerful,
mighty powerful.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
Magic eight ball, non committal language.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
They used all the weasel terms, all the legal weasel terms,
tossed them all out there. So the NFLPA to make
this even longer but shorter at the same time, the
NFLPA just merely wants you to know that even though
there are flames and there's smoke, the house is not
on fire. You can see the flames, you can see
the smoke, but the house is not on fire. And
(18:47):
it's not just a little bit of smoke. It's like thick,
black smoke pillowing out of the building. It is the

Speaker 2 (26:56):
Okay, all right, thank you, all right, I'm hanging up
on you. Go away.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Let's say to uh do we have here? Let's go
to Shane in the moining, the very polarizing Shane and
they Shane, how did you acquire so many people that
hate you?
Speaker 4 (27:08):
Shane morning, Ben, I really don't know. I had a
question for you though about the MVP. What does cal
Rawly have to do to win MVP other than win
the division? Does he have to hit seventy homers more.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Well, seventy home runs. If Aaron Judge doesn't hit seventy
home runs, that'll get you the MVP if he hit
seventy home runs and the Marners are a playoff team
or in the playoff race, I think we got.
Speaker 4 (27:36):
To win the division minimum.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, I mean, listen, cal Rally's on pace to hit
a ridiculous amount homese. You figure the dog days of
summer coming up after the All Star break, he's gonna
he's gonna slow down, right, That's usually what happens after
the All Star break. The numbers offense becomes.
Speaker 2 (27:54):
Well, what does that annoy?
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Then eighty four wins.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
The poto is gonna wet himself.
Speaker 11 (27:57):
So you can't be too good?
Speaker 2 (27:59):
Well, yeah, you know, the whole Mariner philosophy is to
not be too good. That's right.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
You just want to be competitive. You want to win
fifty four percent of the games. But right now cal
Rawley's on paste. It's sixty four home runs, So that's
that's pretty good.
Speaker 5 (28:13):
MVP.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
It's a long shot because Aaron Judge is putting up
massive members. All this is that? I mean, I hearing
that voice in the back. Is this a tag team duel?
Speaker 2 (28:22):
Here's that?
Speaker 5 (28:23):
Don't know?
Speaker 4 (28:23):
You know, women can't let men just talk a donut you.
Speaker 9 (28:28):
In your studio that does it too.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Oh man, that's a sho I think that was a
shot at you, Lorena.
Speaker 9 (28:34):
Shane and des Moines loves me and all women around
the world, don't you, Shane.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
I really can't say that I love you, Lorena.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
That's oh my god, vision you can't.
Speaker 4 (28:45):
I respect you a healthy amountains.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
There we go. That's perfect.
Speaker 11 (28:48):
You're a solid person.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Okay, thank you, all right, we'll hang up on you.
Speaker 8 (28:51):
If he hits sixty four home runs, he's gotta he's
got to get it right.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
No, if Aaron Judge hit sixty home runs, he's going
to get it right. How many he's a judge on
pace for cal Rai's on pace for sixty four he
leads baseball home runs. So doing the math on that,
then Aaron Judges he can't. Aaron Judge is not going
to hit sixty four. He's not on a pace for
sixty four home runs for that way.
Speaker 8 (29:14):
Right, I mean he's he's a little bit behind that pace.
But I mean what Judge's MVP year was what sixty.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
Two judges on pace for fifty nine home runs and

What do you what are you talking about? I don't
even know what you're talking about.
Speaker 12 (30:23):
There is going to be a revelation. This is gonna
be a revelation for all the lazy, malcontents millionaires in
the NBA, A white guy with game coming in and
calling them out on their crap.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Well, you're talking about Cooper flag, is what you're talking Okay,
the Great White Hope Cooper Flag.
Speaker 13 (30:44):
Yes, he goes in and said and starts going in

Speaker 12 (30:57):
And I can't believe I love a duke this much.
You watch, this guy is going to be This guy
is going to be the number one target.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
You've just put the whammy on you just put them
on him, and I'm happy though you're not ripping Tom Brady.
Although Brady. I saw Brady was at that soccer thing
on Sunday. Yeah, he was in the booth with the
box with President Trump and there were some other big
wigs there, the head of some soccer I think the
(31:32):
head of FIFA was there.
Speaker 12 (31:34):
The midlife Cristis continues, But Ben, this is going to
this is going to be the Larry Bird moment of
the of the NBA. They've lost forty percent of their viewership.
This is going to bring you all back.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
I know, all right, Thank you.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Blind Scott is in Boston. Hello, Blind Scott, welcome.
Speaker 9 (31:54):
Oh hey, yeah, that was a good story. So you
went out to eat with your in laws and that
made you wait twenty minutes before.
Speaker 1 (32:00):
They brought it. It was thirty seven minutes. It was
a mud pie. I looked at my watch. I was like,
I didn't really want to eat dessert, but my my
mother in law wanted dessert, so she ordered a mud
pie for the table, like a slice of mud pie.
And it took thirty seven minutes for the pie to arrive.
Thirty seven minutes of my life I sat around waiting
(32:22):
for a mud pie.
Speaker 9 (32:24):
Yeah, So what I would have done is I would
have maybe got up and talked to the server and
said that you were you know, maybe you were out
on a date and you needed a discount on the
bill because your in laws were really upset at you
and it might cause divorce. You know, you should have
worked that a little bit. Or you should have said,
you know, I'm Ben Maller and.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
Oh that always works whenever you start a sentence with
you know, I'm Ben Mallor. You know, you're getting some
good stuff.
Speaker 9 (32:45):
That is the people ever asked you what's the name
of that show you're on all again? People say that
all the time when they see you, and you're like,
it's hard to be like, that's the Ben Mallor show,
you know, dude, This Red Talks team is really on fineite.
Like the Red Talks buzz hasn't been much for years,
but you can walk this three now and hear people
talk in red sox and stuff like the thing about
(33:06):
the WNBA. The reason why we don't talk about on radio,
it's because it's not relevant on radio. They have ratings
that show. As soon as you start talking about it,
people shut it off, you know, because nobody understands what's
going on in the WIBA. And then the thing with
Cooper Flagg is it's just as polarizing as a WNBA.
And Jerome tried to compare him to some guy with
diabetes that played in the NBA. That was the craziest
(33:29):
call ever, you know what I mean, These calls might
have been awful, you know, like it doesn't get much
worse than this. I can't believe that talent show has
come up next week?
Speaker 1 (33:36):
Like are you are you in by the ways, blub blanche,
Do you have an act for the talent show?
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Are you going to do something?
Speaker 11 (33:41):
Well?
Speaker 9 (33:42):
I will enter the comedy talent show bracket if you need.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
A if this' well, I don't really don't need anything,
but if you have something you want to add, if
you think you can win the.
Speaker 9 (33:49):
No comedian, I can go against Surfer Tod like Todd's
not Serfotag is not a real comedian.
Speaker 11 (33:54):
He's a dude.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
By the way, it's Todd in ser Todd in the
is he entered the comedy thing?
Speaker 8 (34:01):
Yette s Tod, I have not received any correspondence.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Okay, so Surfer TODs not in. He's not in yet.
Speaker 11 (34:07):
You go to order.
Speaker 9 (34:07):
Pretend people like people that pretend to be social media starts,
people that pretend to dislike people on the show when
it's not real. All these people are fair game during
comedy hour. You got this guy Jayscoo, great guy, great musician,
and he's got to some other guy that just dances
around next to him like Jimmy Sanlely has no talent.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
All right, all right, please, let's say hello to Tony

amazing drill sergeants, Chris Wayne like Batman. Oh this is

This is this guy kicked ass or he's dodged death
multiple times.
Speaker 2 (35:08):
Right, we want you.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
And you were in Vietnam back in the day, right
you were going to you were in the Marines.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
He's he had a motorcycle accent of this guy. I
what to life?
Speaker 11 (35:16):
This guy's had, yes, sir, two tours with reconnaissance Marines
in Vietnam. Yeah, and my my drill instructor at MCRD
San Diego in nineteen sixty seven, was the iconic.
Speaker 9 (35:33):
Ari or may you.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Know that is Lorena? You ever heard of him?
Speaker 1 (35:37):
The most famous drill sergeant of all drill sergeants. You
don't watch any old movies or anything like that. No, really,
you're missing out one of the all time great characters.
And it was his, a real life drill sergeant who
they wasn't the story. They couldn't find Wayne anyone else
who was as good as him, So he got the
job in the movie.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Was it for Full Metal Jacket, right, I think it
Full Metal.
Speaker 11 (36:00):
Jackets from Yes, Sir Stanley Stanley Kubrick, the director cast
him as the drill Sergeant Hartman in the movie Full
Metal Jacket. And like I like I tell people today,
I can I can still. I can still see indentation
on my forehead from his campaign cap right on my
(36:25):
forehead in nineteen sixty seven. But anyway, I don't want
to take a lot of time. But you mentioned Ben,
I heard earlier that you have a bulldog.
Speaker 6 (36:36):
I do.
Speaker 2 (36:36):
I have an English bulldog named Moxie.
Speaker 11 (36:38):
Yeah, Maxie, the missus and I we have two bulldogs
we have.
Speaker 5 (36:47):
Uh.
Speaker 11 (36:48):
One is named Winston and the other's named Maggie for
Marga that Thatcher and Winston Churchill, two iconic Bridish prime minister.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Yeah, that's right, sure.
Speaker 11 (36:59):
And the reason why is, like I always say, you
know why, we say God bless Fredno State School Nursing
because Prono State Mascar is.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
The That's right, the bulla and old pol Eddie Fresno
State alumnus as well. All right, well, thank you Wayne

my list for this weekend. Yeah. And the Drill.
