Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. It's our numeberfar as we run like
the devil in our number four, the Ben Maler Show
on this Thursday, a very important day in American history,
September eleventh. Today, take a couple of minutes and man,
the years keep flying by, but wild how fast things
have moved on. But to September eleventh, to day, to
(00:21):
pause at least for a little bit and remember what
happened those many many years ago. But here in our
number four do you believe this was an organic apology
from Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. He gave an apology that
Bill's fan that was playing touchy pheey with the Baltimore players. Also,
how does speak of the Bills, how does Bill's quarterback
(00:42):
Josh Allen mentoring Patriots quarterback Drake may taste as that
news came out of this week? And also how do
you categorize Adam Silver go basketball? Adam Silver coming out
and saying the NBA is a highlight based sport that
if you cannot afford to watch the NBA and all
the different streaming channels, we'll just watch the highlights. Just
(01:02):
watch the highlights. That's all you need. We'll talk about
all that and more. Right now, as away we go,
I have a wonderful Thursday. Here it is our number four.
It is a sorry party. Welcome in the beiginty of
(01:24):
another hour of the Ben Balor Show. We are in
the air and rewares we're playing around and we've just
killed a bunch of gremlins and we avoid that mascot
Mayhem toast the coast border to border and beyond on
the mast and show stoppingly powerful microphones of fs are
(01:47):
am modinating live from the machine just a cog and
the audio machine from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios,
as approved by the Digital Space Monkey. This portion of
the Ben Maler Show on Fox made possible in part
by our friends at tire Iraq. For over forty years,
ty Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
(02:07):
for how, what and where they drive, ship fasted free
back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options
like mobile tire installation, tire iraq dot com The Way
Tire Buying Show be so our lead this hour is
from the NFL and one of the stories here there's
(02:28):
a follow up follow up to a story we talked
about in a previous episode of the show, dateline Baltimore, Maryland.
That's where we go next, Baltimore, Maryland. Follow up. As
we said, that epic choke job fifteen point lead fourth
quarter gone as there was bad poetry in Baltimore. So
(02:48):
if you didn't hear the follow up to this, perhaps not.
Raven's quarterback Lamar Jackson has apologized to the to the
Buffalo Bills fan that shoved his teammate then kind of
put hands, played touchy phey with Lamar, and then Lamar retaliated.
So we have a little taste. Here's Lamar some of
(03:09):
what he had to say. Here, the Ravens quarterback speaking
to the assembled Baltimore media, including Sports with Coleman take
a list.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Don't get me wrong, No, I didn't try to, you know,
it just happened like I got push him, like what,
But I was like outside, I wasn't even thinking about
me being out there on the field. But my apologies
to that whoever that was.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I don't know who it was. I appotaly used to him.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Like just shit, next time, just you know, you can
talk trash and stuff, but keep your hands to yourself.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
All right, there you go, keep your hands to yourself.
It was a reaction. You know, somebody touches you, you
touch them back. That's you know, somebody invades your space,
you invade them back. Now that fan, the NFL banned
that fan, your banned band. Of course, those bands are
so dumb that you can there's a lot of work arounds.
You just can't buy tickets. It's an inconvenience band, is
what it is when you get banned from a stadium.
Although the NFL does use facial recognition, it's a police
(03:57):
state at these NFL games. If you've been to an
NFL game, this has been for years.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
There.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
They hire these old FBI guys and they put the
facial recognition to go to a football game. Anyway, let
us discuss the question. Do you believe that this was
an organic apology by the Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. That
is the question. So I've gotten main character Pepsi and
(04:21):
Jimmy Johns, and we will combine all of these things
together and we are going to make the gobbagool. We're
gonna make the gobbagool. Now, to lead off, this apology
by Lamar Jackson was as organic as Kellogg's fruit loops.
It was that organic. And it's more likely than not,
(04:42):
more likely than not, that Lamar Jackson was advised to apologize.
He doesn't really have his people. His mom runs the show.
The apology tour likely was inevitable, and it was arranged
by some pr person for the Baltimore football team, and
it came in like Vince McMahon with the headset on, screaming,
(05:04):
say sorry, say sorry now. Lamart didn't wake up. I'm
pretty sure he did not wake up in the morning
this week and say, you know, goble the gee, I
really feel bad for that Buffalo Bill's fan that was
touching everybody, that slob in the red jersey. I shouldn't
say I'm sorry to that guy. No. Again, more likely
than not, he was forced into that apology. The league
(05:27):
does not want bad optics. They want those bad optics
to go away and all that stuff, God forbid. The
quarterback actually stands up for himself. And it's the main
character syndrome goofball in the crowd that thinks it's their
moment to go viral. That's what a lot of this
stuff that's been happening recently is all about. It's all
(05:50):
about not fifteen minutes of fame. It's viral fame that
lasts sometimes just minutes, less than fifteen, like three or
four minute that's it. Occasionally get a day out of it,
you know, the fian They don't just want to watch
the show. You want to be the show. A lot
of these dopes and it's like the Professional Wrestling World
(06:13):
back what it was called the WWF million years ago.
You'd have the late Great Haul Cogan in the ring,
the late Great Andrea the Giant across from him, and
some wanna be dabbroni from the stands would try to
jump into the action, thinking they were part of the story,
and then Haul Cogan would toss them like a sack
of potatoes or a chair. Of course, I later learned
as an adult that was all staged. But it's like,
(06:33):
you know, you know, look at me. I touched DeAndre
hopkins helmet that Bill's fan was saying, and then Lamar
Jackson's helmet. That's a daily double right there. And they
want to be in the highlight package. They want the
quote tweets and the comments section, the win, the algorithm
boost and all that stuff. For a lot of us,
(06:54):
it's rather pathetic. But in the game right in the game.
On about ten minutes later, another member of the Bill's
mafia tossed a frozen I believe it was a frozen
water bottle if I read correctly the direction of Derek Henry.
Almost it almost got smoked or I guess iced by
(07:15):
a frozen water bottle. Now a frozen water bottle could
actually do some damage. A frozen water bottle. It's like
a brick so and it's not Monday Night Raw. This
sounds like Monday Night Raw. It's not fan participation night.
It's keep your hands and you're junk to yourself. The
whole thing does. It does have that feel like wrestling again,
(07:36):
like a wrestling fan being worked up into a lather
and foaming at the mouth waiting for their queue. They're
not satisfied being in the cheap seats. They want to
jump the barricade and make themselves the heel or the hero,
like one or the other. And it's theater, except the
guys on the field. The guys on the field aren't actors.
(07:58):
They're trying to play football while dodging, in this case
at least one projectile, because God forbid, the player looks bad.
When the fans of the one acting like they're at
WrestleMania three, just like, what are you doing? It's a
bad job by you. I will point out though that
boots on the ground. We have sources that may or
(08:21):
may not be related to the show, friends of the
show in Baltimore who are pointed out that Lamar Jackson
the apology. He did obviously apologize, but Lamar's apology some
details here happened when asked, I don't think anyone is
anything is going to happen from it. And he talked
(08:43):
about his poopy moment yesterday as well. There was that
that as well. All right, now, furthermore, we go to
Buffalo where there was an interesting comment made by the
quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, Josh Allen. Bill's quarterback Josh Allen.
He said this week that he has taken in a
protege under his wings. So who is the protege? That
(09:05):
would be none other than Patriots quarterback Drake May. Say
what so, Alan claims that he spent some time this
offseason with Drake May and that he's quote a great kid.
Bright can spin it all that blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah. Now this one
(09:26):
you don't need me to spell it out for it's
kind of clear. These are two quarterbacks that are plausibly rivals.
They're not on the same level of their career, but
they are in the same division. They do, we think,
compete against each other a couple times a year. So
let us discuss the question, how does Bill's quarterback Josh
Allen essentially saying that he's a bit of a mentor,
(09:49):
a bit of a mentor for Patriots quarterback Drake May
how does that taste? So it tastes like boiled broccoli
and it's not good, well, like something that escaped from
a science lab. Now, bad job by the Bills quarterback
Josh Allen, who I believe is a three hundred million
dollar guys got one of those three hundred million dollar contracts.
(10:11):
He is the face of the Buffalo football team, supposed
to be the alpha, the alpha wolf, the alpha wolf
not running a summer camp for divisional quarterbacks like the
Patriots quarterback here, it's a kin. If you were the
CEO of PEPSI and I realized not a lot of
(10:31):
people these days drink pop or soda or whatever. But
if you're the CEO of PEPSI teaching someone from COPE
who's like an intern, not an executive, but an intern,
how do you mix your syrups? What are the ingredients
in there? What's the mix? Well, wait, you shouldn't be
doing that because you don't work for our company. Your
arrival and then Josh Allens are, well, he's a good
(10:54):
guy and all that. Well, I would say, again, I'm
not a Bills fan or a Patriots fan, but this
is not good guye territory. It's corporate espionage, is what
it is. And the thing that's interesting, and these things
happen from time to time, is I do an overnight
radio show. I have a non compete clause in my contract.
I just signed a new deal with Fox Sports Radio
(11:15):
not that long ago. There's a non compete clause. There's
all kinds of legal language that's some corporate weasel lawyer
put in there. So I have doing an overnight show
a non compete clause. You're telling me that the quarterback
that signs the three hundred million dollars contract does not
have a non compete clause. It just seems like a
terrible look. And they love to sell the competition, the illusion,
(11:37):
the illusion of competition, that it's all the blood, sweat, tears, rivalries,
all that stuff. But things like this lead you to
believe it's really Kabooki theater. It's what it is behind
the scenes. It's kabuki theater. That's it. It's it's like
Starbucks franchising. It's like every quarterback is in the same group.
They work for Starbucks Corporate, and they go to the
(12:00):
same country club. They end up patting each other on
the back, and that boy and all that. They sip
the same Arnold Palmers at the driving range, and that's
just how they roll. And so Josh Allen mentoring Drake
May is the sporting equivalent of McDonald saying, you know
(12:21):
that nobody's really eating at Burger King these days, why
don't we help burger King out And we'll work together
and we'll have a flame broil a whopper and we'll
maybe we'll serve those and help burger King out. At McDonald's,
we'll serve some whoppers. But it's not exactly the mamba
mentality that some of these guys love to claim, the
mamba mentality. It's more mister Rogers neighbor. Won't you be
(12:43):
my neighbor? All right? Now, last thing, I love this story.
Then generally I try to avoid talking too much NBA
because I want people to listen. This is a good story. Though,
this good story, we go where the news of the
day takes us. We go to the NBA where half man,
half lizard person Commissioner Adam Silver, the Great Adam Silver
has a message. Now he did this media event in
(13:07):
the NBA headquarters, had league meetings or whatever. So they
got together and Adam Silver has a message to the
fans who are concerned because in order to watch the
NBA product, I really do not want to exaggerate this
because I want to be fair to the NBA, do
not want to be unfair. In order to properly watch
all the NBA games you can possibly watch, you need
(13:29):
to have seventy eight streaming services. Roughly. I might be
low on that. I might be low on that. So anyway,
Silver has a message to those that may be concerned
because the economies, the raisers are not there at they
stiver can radio and the price of everything goes up
and all that stuff. So Silver said, good news for
(13:52):
those of you that are either not going to pay
the money or can't afford to pay the money for
all the various streaming services the NBA has moved their
product to this year. Silver said, you can still watch
highlights for free on Instagram, TikTok, he said, Twitter, and YouTube. Yeah.
Calling the NBA a highlight sport, he said, a highlight
(14:17):
sport is how he said. He said it. So question,
how do you categorize Adam Silver coming out and saying
that the NBA is a highlight based sport and if
you cannot afford to pay for the streaming, it's okay,
just watch the highlights. This is in my folder. I
put this in the Epic Fail folder. I wrote down
(14:41):
epic fail. Adam said, but this is what the NBA
has been. Funny. One of the reasons they put a
war on load management, which they're still losing, is because
people have stopped paying attention to the regular season product.
They don't watch the regular season like they used to
watch it. And it's not because well, people's taste, it's
because the players didn't compete. They didn't give a crap.
(15:03):
They they're lazy. And it's not just NBA players, it's
in a lot of these sports, because there's a bunch
of nerds that came into sports and they claim to
be really smart. They're from ivy League schools, and well,
you shouldn't really play this many games in a row.
You could get a boo boo. And then the player's like, Okay,
I don't I get paid the same money and I
don't have to play, so I get paid the same
amount I do less work. Okay, that seems good. You're smart.
(15:26):
I'll do that. Why not? So the NBA has been
fighting that for a fair amount of time. They've been
fighting that, and here's Adam Silver essentially giving a concession speech.
I gotta protect the bitcoin I'm getting from the streaming service.
He's essentially telling you you don't need to watch the games.
(15:46):
The product's not worth watching. Just scroll TikTok or go
on Instagram and that's it. Go to the House of Highlights.
You're in good shape. What a disaster like? Seriously, like,
if you imagine Roger Goodell saying, don't bother watching the
NFL on Sunday, don't We'll send out some clips online.
That's all you need to say. No, No, you're the commissioner,
(16:07):
your job plausibly is to sell that the product is good,
the food is fresh. You're gonna want to eat the food,
not some twelve second video clip. That's not what you're
gonna want. You're gonna want to eat the meal. You think.
I don't go to old school. There's a guy named
David Stern who was a hard oh hardline old school commissioner,
(16:27):
the last one the NBA will have ever had. He
would not have tolerated this. David Stern knew right away
when Greg Popovich, that weasel in San Antonio, practiced load management.
He knew right away that this was going to kill
the sport, and he attempted to nip it in the bud.
He was then eventually replaced by Adam Silver, and the
(16:48):
disease spread throughout the product, and that's under Adam Silver,
that's on his resume. David Stern knew right away we
gotta stop it. So the point of this is get
to the point, please that David Stern would have chewed
everyone's ass out and yelled at them for even thinking
that it's a good idea to recommend just watch the highlights,
don't watch the game. Just watch the highlights, don't watch
(17:09):
the game. Adam Silver must be getting marketing advice from
the people over at Jimmy Johns, the gourmet sandwich shop,
because every one of these Jimmy Johns I've been by,
they have that sign in the window, the neon sign
that says free smells. Yeah, don't buy the sandwich. The
smells are free smells good. Yeah. That's like a catchy
(17:30):
marketing slogan. Or if it's the other anawg, you would
be like if you're Warner Brothers and you've got this
new blockbuster movie that's coming out for the holidays, and
you say, hey, listen, you can't afford to go to
the movies because it's too expensive. Don't worry about it.
You can't afford popcorn. It's okay, we'll just put the
trailer on YouTube. Just watch the trailer. You're good to
(17:50):
go free. Okay, So I don't need to watch the movie.
I just need to watch the trailer. Well yeah, we're
saying that, Well I want what I want to watch
the movie, or you don't need to watch the movie.
Just watch the trailer. All the good parts are in
the trailer. That's all you need to see. Now. We
all hate having like the hard sell shoved in our faces.
I would assume you're like me, and yet without like
the whole marketing thing like it just it's like you
(18:12):
don't need it, and you know you shouldn't want it.
Just watch the highlights and all that stuff. It's it's
just odd to me and I'm not in there. It
seems like self sabotage, a sabatur adam silver. It's like
you make peanuts. That's the other part is I've had
many conversations with friends of mine that work in the
media business, like and this is an uncomfortable truth that
(18:36):
despite all of the popularity of social media, it is
the wild wild West where there is so much fraud
going on with podcast downloads, YouTube views that at some
point they'll figure out how to catch that and there'll
be a lot of people, a lot of people that
(18:59):
you'll realize think they have a big following that really
don't because they've been buying followers and they've been buying
views and likes and all that stuff. It really is
the wild wide West. I mean, there's been some TV
shows that have been put on television with internet people,
very big stars on Internet. No one watches them, and
(19:19):
it leads you to believe that it's because they don't
actually have that big a following. There have been some
people that have been very famous online music stars on
like TikTok. I have a lot of people that will
listen to their music plausibly on TikTok and then they'll
go out and perform and no one buys tickets because
it's all fake. And there's billions of dollars that are
(19:41):
being spent in that space by major American companies and
global companies that are getting absolutely bamboozled. And here's Adam Silver, like,
just watch the clips that don't watch the games. That's
even though they make their money from people watching the games.
That's how they make them money anyway. So just do
the clip farming. That's all you need. Okay. So the
(20:02):
commissioner of the NBA just admitted the product is clip farming.
That's the product. Okay, sounds good to me. It is

Speaker 6 (23:37):
Sure think back to the to the Morgue scene. There
men in black agent j touches that dude, dear Adam
Silver is what they call it.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
An archillian.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
He's an archillian of the Archillian race, and if he
touched it there, he says something like the NBA's future is.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
In China's hands.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
This guy doesn't know anything about marketing. He obviously knows
something about what the americanos does with regards to seemed
to him, so he went with the opposite, He said,
the outosite of what he really wants people to do,
because just looking at that guy, if he was like
your house on fire and you don't need to go
in there, you're die, I would probably run into my
burning house because he is untrustworth. You're looking. He is
(24:13):
evil looking, and I know evil if you real I've
made up and down the alleys of evil, and that
guy scares me. He scared me, scares everybody. He scares
the Chinese people, and that's why they sucking.
Speaker 8 (24:23):
Up the NBA.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Nobody like the NBA. China say they like the NBA. Dude,
they can't touch them.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
I've never been to China. I don't know. I saw
that Lebron had a fake op ed or something like that.
He didn't write it, but they claimed he wrote it
or something like that. I saw that headline. I didn't
read too deep into that though I didn't go too
deep on that. But anyway, thank.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
You for that. I can do that.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
I can just I'll tell you this though, I'm not
let No, I'm not doing please you.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
We're done. I was I was moving on. I thought
you were doing.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
And I'm not a fake.
Speaker 9 (24:53):
Don't stick me in a vampire's heart.
Speaker 6 (24:54):
Don't stick a fork in me.
Speaker 7 (24:55):
I'm not letting.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
Dude.
Speaker 6 (24:56):
All my friends had military fathers. And the third PPE
coach Gray's like, oh, y'all think it's funny to because
your god.
Speaker 3 (25:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (25:04):
I was like, yeah, it's not all right.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
I gotta go. I can't get rid of you. I
don't thank you. Let's go to Mike the Leprechaun is
in the state of Massachusetts somewhere. I don't know how well,
Mike the Leprechaun welcome.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
You can't get rid of me either, huh.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I know, well, we got rid of the gremlins, but
we we traded the gremlins for a leprechaun and for
Jed who fled.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Yes, So there's a conspiracy theory out there that the chickens,
or the leprechauns, or maybe Blind Scott's caused the Gremlins
or maybe Rothy o'donalds who list in Irelands.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yeah, you know I know that. Where where is that?
Where can I read about that? Where's that? On the conspiracy?
Speaker 9 (25:51):
I don't know o Donald?
Speaker 3 (25:53):
She moved to Ireland because she's sick of America. Anyway,
you have a new caller from Manhattan, Stee from Manhattan.
He was brilliant.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
He's not new, and he's not brilliant. Don't encourage him.
He's called. He calls every once in a while, and
he's a professional radio caller, is what he is.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Yes, so on nine to eleven. It was one of
my first jobs in America back in two thousand and eleven, No, no,
two thousand and one. I guess I was up for
ahead of an hour. Every class was an hour, So
I would in the morning go for a jog around
Boston College from back to have a shower, and all
of a sudden, I'm looking at my phone at the time,

You know the spitting incidents, right, Yeah, a football beyer.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah, so in Hong Kong, I might have talked about it.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Yes, you did talk about it in China. In Hong Kong,
the Mainlanders come over there to gamble and buy the
fancy stuff. If you speak and you're hot spitting, you
get a massive fine.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
And well, I find fifty seven thousand dollars fun. You
would like to do a song?
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Not in Hong Kong.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
All right, I know in some countries they probably cut
off your thumb. What do you want? I go ahead,
just uh one minute? Here you go go ahead, Here
we go sing sing.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
People are strange, even Lorena Marcella is awful. Thank God,
see's alone. Five God is weird.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
I'm saying, blank, God, it is weird.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Stop the timers.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
See so I wanted.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
All that he does is bring people down. They are strange.
Marcella and my daughter strange. No one remembers their names
when they're stray, when you're strained.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Okay, all right, all right, that's horrible. Go away, I'm
hanging up on you.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Even make it a minute.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
That was That was terrible. All right. Let's go back
to the phones and says here that there's a guy
casing a golden ticket. Let's go to the caller cashing
a golden ticket. Hello, call hey, Jed who fled again? Really,

Mount Rushmore of human intelligence.

You want to go out with the ugly people because
then you look better. You want to you always want
to be able to.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
Oh the Gremlins take you out next time. I think
I've earned that. But I'm getting blessed. I'll probably never
be there.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Now, Madden did the play, so we think we should
we should just we should just go to you and
then you would just rant and rave. Right, We'll just
go to you and then you'll do the show.
Speaker 6 (29:01):
I'll do whatever it takes to make Ben Mallard number
two come on the air with me, because the first
Ben Mallor on the first goal was on a period
Bin Mallak. I like this guy, dude, I like this
guy again. I got to follow the liver Guns following
deliver guns.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Are you are you saying that that you said the
name Ben Mallek, that he has multiple personalities?
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Is that what you're saying, mister Livergun you make on
Michaels bike, us Sons the ball the dumber Ben Malah
got me on the radio.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right,
thank you. I you use your golden wonderful use of
a golden ticket right there.
Speaker 10 (29:38):
I was like two seconds away, literally a millisecond away
from doing the live read when the when the Gremlins
had attacked.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
That would have been awesome. I love that, and I
was at the time we had remember we had you
do an update one time when we have live updates overnight,
but he whacked Eddy and we had you do an update.
It was it was great.
Speaker 10 (29:58):
Yeah, that didn't go about and this would have gone
well either I was about to do the wrong live
read and then which one were you going to do?
I was gonna do the uh, I was gonna do
DraftKings when it was supposed to be expressed.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We have a log here and you're supposed to read
the commercial at certain times, and if you don't read
the commercial. At a certain times you get the very
upsets and then they bother you during the day when
you're just trying to live your life and you say,
I do an over and I show, don't bother me.
Oh yeah, we did something wrong. Well I'm now call
me at three in the morning let me know what
I did wrong. I mean that's when I'm working. So anyway,
uh so poking the Brownies, it's the Baltimore Ravens have
(30:35):
planned a thirtieth anniversary celebration before the They say they
planned this before the Browns were the scheduled opponent. Now,
if you know the history of the Baltimore Ravens, they
are the old Cleveland Browns. So people in Cleveland are
so most are the up and arms and all this stuff.
But the Ravens are celebrating their thirtieth anniversary in the
(30:57):
Charm City during their but it's their home opening this weekend.
And there's some bad blood because the Ravens were owned
by Art Modell and rebranded the team, and so there's
people like you just you shouldn't be doing this and
all this what's wrong with you? I think it's pretty funny. Actually,
I think it's pretty funny that they're doing this. And
(31:18):
it shows you the level of incompetence of the new
Cleveland Browns that they're so hurt by this. How many
years have they had top five picks in the NFL draft,
top ten picks in the draft and they can't put
a competitive team on the field to save their life.
It's it's and so they're upset with the raven You
should be upset it yourself, not the Ravens. Let's go
(31:39):
back to the phones, Dick and Dayton. Speaking of that,
we'll see if he's offended. Hello, Dick and Dayton. Welcome Dick,
good morning. How are you the legendary Dick and Dayton,
musician and entertainer, one of the great stars of talk radio,
Dick and Dayton.
Speaker 7 (31:57):

Speaker 1 (32:02):
All right, breaking news lorata from Dick and Dayton, Big news, bigger,

and Joe player. How about that?
Speaker 8 (32:38):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Look, at that. Well, that's out saying a good job
by you, Dick. You're the king of the banjo.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Well, I thought the Browns looked a little better Sunday,
but the Metal mistakes. They need a new kicker and
they're going to have to play a little bit better
because I couldn't even get on the show with Titus.
And yes, you know last week.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
It was so missy, but you're bothered by that. I
understand there. So now they're big underdogs, biggest underdog on
the board. I know you're not a gambler here, but
what do you think going into Baltimore the home opener
for the Ravens, the old Browns versus the new Browns.
Let's get the pick right now, Dick and Dayton. Go ahead.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
I give a score. I'm hoping to win, but I
think the Browns will win. In the last minute, They'll
get a wow.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Browns are upset game. That's a massive upset Browns. Send
that out, Coop. The Browns are upsetting the Ravens on Sunday.
Holy crap, that is amazing. You've done it yet again, Dick,
yet again. You you never failed to get the job done.
You never give me a little taste of that Dick.
It's unbelievable. He always he always rises on the occasion.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
For coming in.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
Where are you heading to work? You're heading home or

Speaker 6 (36:19):
I'm just driving back from Orlando to Daytona visiting my
sister at the Mickey Mouse Show.
Speaker 1 (36:26):
Nice, all right, very cool. Hold on a sec Brooks,
You're gonna be one of our judges. We have hollering James, Hello,
hollering James.
Speaker 7 (36:35):
Damn and my birthday shoot.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
Okay, I do not want to hear your touch you
on your birthday suit? Dude. Colin is in beautiful Princeton,
New Jersey. What's going on? Colin? Welcome?
Speaker 9 (36:49):
Good morning, Ben, Thanks for having me on here.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Thanks man. Do you do you just live there or
do you go to school or do you work there?
Speaker 9 (36:58):
You know, I travel? I work with the official again.
Speaker 1 (37:01):
Okay, all right, very cool. Well hold on, you're gonna
be one of our judges. Rick and Maryland. Now Rick's
famous on the show for saying morning time, Hello, Ricky.
Speaker 7 (37:10):
Morning time, Look at you. I sleep on top of
the sheets with black noise in the background.
Speaker 1 (37:19):
All right, I'm surprised they haven't changed that. All right,
let's say Rick and we have we have blind Scott. Hello,
blind Scott.
Speaker 9 (37:28):
Hey, you know I'm trying to turn my life around
and rehabilitate myself up very much, taking the high road
right now. I've been best friends with Ben Malla for
a long time. We disagree on a lot of stuff
very much. What is going on right now is in disagreement.
Get the high road because I love Ben Mallee.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Okay, thank you. I don't know what you mean by that,
but here we go. I think that's all we have
time for. Story number one Lady Gaga the middle of
her Mayhem Ball tour, but she's dressed up as a
different kind of ball. This past weekend for MTV, the
Lady Gaga showed up on the red carpet as a
giant tennis ball the US Open Final. Of course, you'll
(38:09):
do anything for the Internet these days, unless she didn't.
Story number two to be like Lady Gaga, The Phillies
Karen still hasn't been found, but a trading card company
has offered the woman five thousand dollars for the ball
she demanded that the father give to the kid, and
so I think five thousand probably not enough for the ball,
(38:30):
and they haven't found her yet, but she's got a
five thousand dollar offering. Story number three, The Dynamic due
O Connor McGregor hasn't fought in the octagon many years.
He's still very involved in MMA. He has a company
called Mixed Martial Arts Group that has focused on growing
the sport. And McGregor announced that Donald Trump Junior has
been hired as a strategic advisor. I wonder how much
(38:53):
that job pays. All right, those are the three stories.
One of the three is not true. We'll start out
with you Brooks in Florida going to Mickey Mousetown. Brooks
won two or three Brooks three? Number three? All right, Brooks,
hold on, we have a hollering James's in his birthday
suit one to or three James number okay?
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
Colin who does events and he's on the iconic campus
or near it in Princeton. What's the answer there?
Speaker 8 (39:20):
Colin?
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Number one?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Number one?
Speaker 3 (39:24):
All right?
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Rick and Maryland one morning time? Rick and Maryland, what's
the answer?
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Rick?
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Number number two? All right? And bitter blind Scott who's
upset with me? Oh he's oh he so he's he's up.
He'll send some nasty emails.
Speaker 8 (39:38):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
And we don't have time to run out all the
stories the fake story. This week, we do have a winner.
Number one. Yes, Lady Gaga has warned some outrageous outfits
in her time that did not dress up as a tennant.
It'd be tough to walk as a tennis ball, right,
You couldn't sit down if you dressed up as a
(40:00):
tennis ball. But do you remember when Katy Perry dressed
up as a cheeseburger, Like, how practical could that be?
I know, well, we love cheeseburgers and were tennis ball
is not so much
Here we go. It's our numeberfar as we run like
the devil in our number four, the Ben Maler Show
on this Thursday, a very important day in American history,
September eleventh. Today, take a couple of minutes and man,
the years keep flying by, but wild how fast things
have moved on. But to September eleventh, to day, to
(00:21):
pause at least for a little bit and remember what
happened those many many years ago. But here in our
number four do you believe this was an organic apology
from Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. He gave an apology that
Bill's fan that was playing touchy pheey with the Baltimore players. Also,
how does speak of the Bills, how does Bill's quarterback
(00:42):
Josh Allen mentoring Patriots quarterback Drake may taste as that
news came out of this week? And also how do
you categorize Adam Silver go basketball? Adam Silver coming out
and saying the NBA is a highlight based sport that
if you cannot afford to watch the NBA and all
the different streaming channels, we'll just watch the highlights. Just
(01:02):
watch the highlights. That's all you need. We'll talk about
all that and more. Right now, as away we go,
I have a wonderful Thursday. Here it is our number four.
It is a sorry party. Welcome in the beiginty of
(01:24):
another hour of the Ben Balor Show. We are in
the air and rewares we're playing around and we've just
killed a bunch of gremlins and we avoid that mascot
Mayhem toast the coast border to border and beyond on
the mast and show stoppingly powerful microphones of fs are
(01:47):
am modinating live from the machine just a cog and
the audio machine from the world famous Fox Sports Radio Studios,
as approved by the Digital Space Monkey. This portion of
the Ben Maler Show on Fox made possible in part
by our friends at tire Iraq. For over forty years,
ty Iraq has been helping customers find the right tires
(02:07):
for how, what and where they drive, ship fasted free
back by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options
like mobile tire installation, tire iraq dot com The Way
Tire Buying Show be so our lead this hour is
from the NFL and one of the stories here there's
(02:28):
a follow up follow up to a story we talked
about in a previous episode of the show, dateline Baltimore, Maryland.
That's where we go next, Baltimore, Maryland. Follow up. As
we said, that epic choke job fifteen point lead fourth
quarter gone as there was bad poetry in Baltimore. So
(02:48):
if you didn't hear the follow up to this, perhaps not.
Raven's quarterback Lamar Jackson has apologized to the to the
Buffalo Bills fan that shoved his teammate then kind of
put hands, played touchy phey with Lamar, and then Lamar retaliated.
So we have a little taste. Here's Lamar some of
(03:09):
what he had to say. Here, the Ravens quarterback speaking
to the assembled Baltimore media, including Sports with Coleman take
a list.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
Don't get me wrong, No, I didn't try to, you know,
it just happened like I got push him, like what,
But I was like outside, I wasn't even thinking about
me being out there on the field. But my apologies
to that whoever that was.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
I don't know who it was. I appotaly used to him.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Like just shit, next time, just you know, you can
talk trash and stuff, but keep your hands to yourself.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
All right, there you go, keep your hands to yourself.
It was a reaction. You know, somebody touches you, you
touch them back. That's you know, somebody invades your space,
you invade them back. Now that fan, the NFL banned
that fan, your banned band. Of course, those bands are
so dumb that you can there's a lot of work arounds.
You just can't buy tickets. It's an inconvenience band, is
what it is when you get banned from a stadium.
Although the NFL does use facial recognition, it's a police
(03:57):
state at these NFL games. If you've been to an
NFL game, this has been for years.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
There.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
They hire these old FBI guys and they put the
facial recognition to go to a football game. Anyway, let
us discuss the question. Do you believe that this was
an organic apology by the Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. That
is the question. So I've gotten main character Pepsi and
(04:21):
Jimmy Johns, and we will combine all of these things
together and we are going to make the gobbagool. We're
gonna make the gobbagool. Now, to lead off, this apology
by Lamar Jackson was as organic as Kellogg's fruit loops.
It was that organic. And it's more likely than not,
(04:42):
more likely than not, that Lamar Jackson was advised to apologize.
He doesn't really have his people. His mom runs the show.
The apology tour likely was inevitable, and it was arranged
by some pr person for the Baltimore football team, and
it came in like Vince McMahon with the headset on, screaming,
(05:04):
say sorry, say sorry now. Lamart didn't wake up. I'm
pretty sure he did not wake up in the morning
this week and say, you know, goble the gee, I
really feel bad for that Buffalo Bill's fan that was
touching everybody, that slob in the red jersey. I shouldn't
say I'm sorry to that guy. No. Again, more likely
than not, he was forced into that apology. The league
(05:27):
does not want bad optics. They want those bad optics
to go away and all that stuff, God forbid. The
quarterback actually stands up for himself. And it's the main
character syndrome goofball in the crowd that thinks it's their
moment to go viral. That's what a lot of this
stuff that's been happening recently is all about. It's all
(05:50):
about not fifteen minutes of fame. It's viral fame that
lasts sometimes just minutes, less than fifteen, like three or
four minute that's it. Occasionally get a day out of it,
you know, the fian They don't just want to watch
the show. You want to be the show. A lot
of these dopes and it's like the Professional Wrestling World
(06:13):
back what it was called the WWF million years ago.
You'd have the late Great Haul Cogan in the ring,
the late Great Andrea the Giant across from him, and
some wanna be dabbroni from the stands would try to
jump into the action, thinking they were part of the story,
and then Haul Cogan would toss them like a sack
of potatoes or a chair. Of course, I later learned
as an adult that was all staged. But it's like,
(06:33):
you know, you know, look at me. I touched DeAndre
hopkins helmet that Bill's fan was saying, and then Lamar
Jackson's helmet. That's a daily double right there. And they
want to be in the highlight package. They want the
quote tweets and the comments section, the win, the algorithm
boost and all that stuff. For a lot of us,
(06:54):
it's rather pathetic. But in the game right in the game.
On about ten minutes later, another member of the Bill's
mafia tossed a frozen I believe it was a frozen
water bottle if I read correctly the direction of Derek Henry.
Almost it almost got smoked or I guess iced by
(07:15):
a frozen water bottle. Now a frozen water bottle could
actually do some damage. A frozen water bottle. It's like
a brick so and it's not Monday Night Raw. This
sounds like Monday Night Raw. It's not fan participation night.
It's keep your hands and you're junk to yourself. The
whole thing does. It does have that feel like wrestling again,
(07:36):
like a wrestling fan being worked up into a lather
and foaming at the mouth waiting for their queue. They're
not satisfied being in the cheap seats. They want to
jump the barricade and make themselves the heel or the hero,
like one or the other. And it's theater, except the
guys on the field. The guys on the field aren't actors.
(07:58):
They're trying to play football while dodging, in this case
at least one projectile, because God forbid, the player looks bad.
When the fans of the one acting like they're at
WrestleMania three, just like, what are you doing? It's a
bad job by you. I will point out though that
boots on the ground. We have sources that may or
(08:21):
may not be related to the show, friends of the
show in Baltimore who are pointed out that Lamar Jackson
the apology. He did obviously apologize, but Lamar's apology some
details here happened when asked, I don't think anyone is
anything is going to happen from it. And he talked
(08:43):
about his poopy moment yesterday as well. There was that
that as well. All right, now, furthermore, we go to
Buffalo where there was an interesting comment made by the
quarterback of the Buffalo Bills, Josh Allen. Bill's quarterback Josh Allen.
He said this week that he has taken in a
protege under his wings. So who is the protege? That
(09:05):
would be none other than Patriots quarterback Drake May. Say
what so, Alan claims that he spent some time this
offseason with Drake May and that he's quote a great kid.
Bright can spin it all that blah blah blah blah
blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah. Now this one
(09:26):
you don't need me to spell it out for it's
kind of clear. These are two quarterbacks that are plausibly rivals.
They're not on the same level of their career, but
they are in the same division. They do, we think,
compete against each other a couple times a year. So
let us discuss the question, how does Bill's quarterback Josh
Allen essentially saying that he's a bit of a mentor,
(09:49):
a bit of a mentor for Patriots quarterback Drake May
how does that taste? So it tastes like boiled broccoli
and it's not good, well, like something that escaped from
a science lab. Now, bad job by the Bills quarterback
Josh Allen, who I believe is a three hundred million
dollar guys got one of those three hundred million dollar contracts.
(10:11):
He is the face of the Buffalo football team, supposed
to be the alpha, the alpha wolf, the alpha wolf
not running a summer camp for divisional quarterbacks like the
Patriots quarterback here, it's a kin. If you were the
CEO of PEPSI and I realized not a lot of
(10:31):
people these days drink pop or soda or whatever. But
if you're the CEO of PEPSI teaching someone from COPE
who's like an intern, not an executive, but an intern,
how do you mix your syrups? What are the ingredients
in there? What's the mix? Well, wait, you shouldn't be
doing that because you don't work for our company. Your
arrival and then Josh Allens are, well, he's a good
(10:54):
guy and all that. Well, I would say, again, I'm
not a Bills fan or a Patriots fan, but this
is not good guye territory. It's corporate espionage, is what
it is. And the thing that's interesting, and these things
happen from time to time, is I do an overnight
radio show. I have a non compete clause in my contract.
I just signed a new deal with Fox Sports Radio
(11:15):
not that long ago. There's a non compete clause. There's
all kinds of legal language that's some corporate weasel lawyer
put in there. So I have doing an overnight show
a non compete clause. You're telling me that the quarterback
that signs the three hundred million dollars contract does not
have a non compete clause. It just seems like a
terrible look. And they love to sell the competition, the illusion,
(11:37):
the illusion of competition, that it's all the blood, sweat, tears, rivalries,
all that stuff. But things like this lead you to
believe it's really Kabooki theater. It's what it is behind
the scenes. It's kabuki theater. That's it. It's it's like
Starbucks franchising. It's like every quarterback is in the same group.
They work for Starbucks Corporate, and they go to the
(12:00):
same country club. They end up patting each other on
the back, and that boy and all that. They sip
the same Arnold Palmers at the driving range, and that's
just how they roll. And so Josh Allen mentoring Drake
May is the sporting equivalent of McDonald saying, you know
(12:21):
that nobody's really eating at Burger King these days, why
don't we help burger King out And we'll work together
and we'll have a flame broil a whopper and we'll
maybe we'll serve those and help burger King out. At McDonald's,
we'll serve some whoppers. But it's not exactly the mamba
mentality that some of these guys love to claim, the
mamba mentality. It's more mister Rogers neighbor. Won't you be
(12:43):
my neighbor? All right? Now, last thing, I love this story.
Then generally I try to avoid talking too much NBA
because I want people to listen. This is a good story. Though,
this good story, we go where the news of the
day takes us. We go to the NBA where half man,
half lizard person Commissioner Adam Silver, the Great Adam Silver
has a message. Now he did this media event in
(13:07):
the NBA headquarters, had league meetings or whatever. So they
got together and Adam Silver has a message to the
fans who are concerned because in order to watch the
NBA product, I really do not want to exaggerate this
because I want to be fair to the NBA, do
not want to be unfair. In order to properly watch
all the NBA games you can possibly watch, you need
(13:29):
to have seventy eight streaming services. Roughly. I might be
low on that. I might be low on that. So anyway,
Silver has a message to those that may be concerned
because the economies, the raisers are not there at they
stiver can radio and the price of everything goes up
and all that stuff. So Silver said, good news for
(13:52):
those of you that are either not going to pay
the money or can't afford to pay the money for
all the various streaming services the NBA has moved their
product to this year. Silver said, you can still watch
highlights for free on Instagram, TikTok, he said, Twitter, and YouTube. Yeah.
Calling the NBA a highlight sport, he said, a highlight
(14:17):
sport is how he said. He said it. So question,
how do you categorize Adam Silver coming out and saying
that the NBA is a highlight based sport and if
you cannot afford to pay for the streaming, it's okay,
just watch the highlights. This is in my folder. I
put this in the Epic Fail folder. I wrote down
(14:41):
epic fail. Adam said, but this is what the NBA
has been. Funny. One of the reasons they put a
war on load management, which they're still losing, is because
people have stopped paying attention to the regular season product.
They don't watch the regular season like they used to
watch it. And it's not because well, people's taste, it's
because the players didn't compete. They didn't give a crap.
(15:03):
They they're lazy. And it's not just NBA players, it's
in a lot of these sports, because there's a bunch
of nerds that came into sports and they claim to
be really smart. They're from ivy League schools, and well,
you shouldn't really play this many games in a row.
You could get a boo boo. And then the player's like, Okay,
I don't I get paid the same money and I
don't have to play, so I get paid the same
amount I do less work. Okay, that seems good. You're smart.
(15:26):
I'll do that. Why not? So the NBA has been
fighting that for a fair amount of time. They've been
fighting that, and here's Adam Silver essentially giving a concession speech.
I gotta protect the bitcoin I'm getting from the streaming service.
He's essentially telling you you don't need to watch the games.
(15:46):
The product's not worth watching. Just scroll TikTok or go
on Instagram and that's it. Go to the House of Highlights.
You're in good shape. What a disaster like? Seriously, like,
if you imagine Roger Goodell saying, don't bother watching the
NFL on Sunday, don't We'll send out some clips online.
That's all you need to say. No, No, you're the commissioner,
(16:07):
your job plausibly is to sell that the product is good,
the food is fresh. You're gonna want to eat the food,
not some twelve second video clip. That's not what you're
gonna want. You're gonna want to eat the meal. You think.
I don't go to old school. There's a guy named
David Stern who was a hard oh hardline old school commissioner,
(16:27):
the last one the NBA will have ever had. He
would not have tolerated this. David Stern knew right away
when Greg Popovich, that weasel in San Antonio, practiced load management.
He knew right away that this was going to kill
the sport, and he attempted to nip it in the bud.
He was then eventually replaced by Adam Silver, and the
(16:48):
disease spread throughout the product, and that's under Adam Silver,
that's on his resume. David Stern knew right away we
gotta stop it. So the point of this is get
to the point, please that David Stern would have chewed
everyone's ass out and yelled at them for even thinking
that it's a good idea to recommend just watch the highlights,
don't watch the game. Just watch the highlights, don't watch
(17:09):
the game. Adam Silver must be getting marketing advice from
the people over at Jimmy Johns, the gourmet sandwich shop,
because every one of these Jimmy Johns I've been by,
they have that sign in the window, the neon sign
that says free smells. Yeah, don't buy the sandwich. The
smells are free smells good. Yeah. That's like a catchy
(17:30):
marketing slogan. Or if it's the other anawg, you would
be like if you're Warner Brothers and you've got this
new blockbuster movie that's coming out for the holidays, and
you say, hey, listen, you can't afford to go to
the movies because it's too expensive. Don't worry about it.
You can't afford popcorn. It's okay, we'll just put the
trailer on YouTube. Just watch the trailer. You're good to
(17:50):
go free. Okay, So I don't need to watch the movie.
I just need to watch the trailer. Well yeah, we're
saying that, Well I want what I want to watch
the movie, or you don't need to watch the movie.
Just watch the trailer. All the good parts are in
the trailer. That's all you need to see. Now. We
all hate having like the hard sell shoved in our faces.
I would assume you're like me, and yet without like
the whole marketing thing like it just it's like you
(18:12):
don't need it, and you know you shouldn't want it.
Just watch the highlights and all that stuff. It's it's
just odd to me and I'm not in there. It
seems like self sabotage, a sabatur adam silver. It's like
you make peanuts. That's the other part is I've had
many conversations with friends of mine that work in the
media business, like and this is an uncomfortable truth that
(18:36):
despite all of the popularity of social media, it is
the wild wild West where there is so much fraud
going on with podcast downloads, YouTube views that at some
point they'll figure out how to catch that and there'll
be a lot of people, a lot of people that
(18:59):
you'll realize think they have a big following that really
don't because they've been buying followers and they've been buying
views and likes and all that stuff. It really is
the wild wide West. I mean, there's been some TV
shows that have been put on television with internet people,
very big stars on Internet. No one watches them, and
(19:19):
it leads you to believe that it's because they don't
actually have that big a following. There have been some
people that have been very famous online music stars on
like TikTok. I have a lot of people that will
listen to their music plausibly on TikTok and then they'll
go out and perform and no one buys tickets because
it's all fake. And there's billions of dollars that are
(19:41):
being spent in that space by major American companies and
global companies that are getting absolutely bamboozled. And here's Adam Silver, like,
just watch the clips that don't watch the games. That's
even though they make their money from people watching the games.
That's how they make them money anyway. So just do
the clip farming. That's all you need. Okay. So the
(20:02):
commissioner of the NBA just admitted the product is clip farming.
That's the product. Okay, sounds good to me. It is

Later this hour, we will have a thrilling fact or
fiction that is not that far away with the haven't

the grim. Let's go all the phones and we'll say
(23:29):
hello to Eenie Meenie, miney moll. Let's say load to
Jed who fled who's in the Sunshine State? Hello, Jed? Welcome?
Speaker 6 (23:37):
Sure think back to the to the Morgue scene. There
men in black agent j touches that dude, dear Adam
Silver is what they call it.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
An archillian.
Speaker 6 (23:45):
He's an archillian of the Archillian race, and if he
touched it there, he says something like the NBA's future is.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
In China's hands.
Speaker 6 (23:53):
This guy doesn't know anything about marketing. He obviously knows
something about what the americanos does with regards to seemed
to him, so he went with the opposite, He said,
the outosite of what he really wants people to do,
because just looking at that guy, if he was like
your house on fire and you don't need to go
in there, you're die, I would probably run into my
burning house because he is untrustworth. You're looking. He is
(24:13):
evil looking, and I know evil if you real I've
made up and down the alleys of evil, and that
guy scares me. He scared me, scares everybody. He scares
the Chinese people, and that's why they sucking.
Speaker 8 (24:23):
Up the NBA.
Speaker 6 (24:24):
Nobody like the NBA. China say they like the NBA. Dude,
they can't touch them.
Speaker 1 (24:28):
I've never been to China. I don't know. I saw
that Lebron had a fake op ed or something like that.
He didn't write it, but they claimed he wrote it
or something like that. I saw that headline. I didn't
read too deep into that though I didn't go too
deep on that. But anyway, thank.
Speaker 8 (24:42):
You for that. I can do that.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
I can just I'll tell you this though, I'm not
let No, I'm not doing please you.
Speaker 1 (24:50):

Speaker 6 (24:52):
And I'm not a fake.
Speaker 9 (24:53):

Speaker 6 (24:54):
Don't stick a fork in me.
Speaker 7 (24:55):

in the state of Massachusetts somewhere. I don't know how well,
Mike the Leprechaun welcome.
Speaker 3 (25:23):
You can't get rid of me either, huh.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I know, well, we got rid of the gremlins, but
we we traded the gremlins for a leprechaun and for
Jed who fled.
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Yes, So there's a conspiracy theory out there that the chickens,
or the leprechauns, or maybe Blind Scott's caused the Gremlins
or maybe Rothy o'donalds who list in Irelands.
Speaker 1 (25:46):
Yeah, you know I know that. Where where is that?
Where can I read about that? Where's that? On the conspiracy?
Speaker 9 (25:51):
I don't know o Donald?
Speaker 3 (25:53):
She moved to Ireland because she's sick of America. Anyway,
you have a new caller from Manhattan, Stee from Manhattan.
He was brilliant.
Speaker 1 (26:00):
He's not new, and he's not brilliant. Don't encourage him.
He's called. He calls every once in a while, and
he's a professional radio caller, is what he is.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
Yes, so on nine to eleven. It was one of
my first jobs in America back in two thousand and eleven, No, no,
two thousand and one. I guess I was up for
ahead of an hour. Every class was an hour, So
I would in the morning go for a jog around
Boston College from back to have a shower, and all
of a sudden, I'm looking at my phone at the time,
(26:31):
and anyway, that's where I was. And I've been to
China twice.
Speaker 8 (26:36):
Hong Kong.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
You know the spitting incidents, right, Yeah, a football beyer.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
Yeah, so in Hong Kong, I might have talked about it.
Speaker 3 (26:46):
Yes, you did talk about it in China. In Hong Kong,
the Mainlanders come over there to gamble and buy the
fancy stuff. If you speak and you're hot spitting, you
get a massive fine.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
And well, I find fifty seven thousand dollars fun. You
would like to do a song?
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Not in Hong Kong.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
All right, I know in some countries they probably cut
off your thumb. What do you want? I go ahead,
just uh one minute? Here you go go ahead, Here
we go sing sing.
Speaker 8 (27:20):
People are strange, even Lorena Marcella is awful. Thank God,

Speaker 6 (27:35):
Stop the timers.
Speaker 3 (27:36):
See so I wanted.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
All that he does is bring people down. They are strange.
Marcella and my daughter strange. No one remembers their names
when they're stray, when you're strained.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
Okay, all right, all right, that's horrible. Go away, I'm
hanging up on you.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
Even make it a minute.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
That was That was terrible. All right. Let's go back
to the phones and says here that there's a guy
casing a golden ticket. Let's go to the caller cashing
a golden ticket. Hello, call hey, Jed who fled again? Really,
(28:18):
you were just on the second again.
Speaker 6 (28:20):
It's Ben Malice, It's by Scott, it's their collaboration, it's
it's the beautiful census.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
It is there.
Speaker 6 (28:26):
I just want to call him, say, can I please
please follow the leprechauns now by comparison, I need to
be asked for the Leprecaun and I'll be on the
Mount Rushmore of human intelligence.
Speaker 1 (28:38):
So you're you're, well, yeah, that's like when you go out.
You want to go out with the ugly people because
then you look better. You want to you always want
to be able to.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
Oh the Gremlins take you out next time. I think
I've earned that. But I'm getting blessed. I'll probably never
be there.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
You know.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
Now, Madden did the play, so we think we should
we should just we should just go to you and
then you would just rant and rave. Right, We'll just
go to you and then you'll do the show.
Speaker 6 (29:01):
I'll do whatever it takes to make Ben Mallard number
two come on the air with me, because the first
Ben Mallor on the first goal was on a period
Bin Mallak. I like this guy, dude, I like this
guy again. I got to follow the liver Guns following
deliver guns.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Are you are you saying that that you said the
name Ben Mallek, that he has multiple personalities?
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Is that what you're saying, mister Livergun you make on
Michaels bike, us Sons the ball the dumber Ben Malah
got me on the radio.
Speaker 1 (29:32):
All right, all right, all right, all right, all right,
thank you. I you use your golden wonderful use of
a golden ticket right there.
Speaker 10 (29:38):
I was like two seconds away, literally a millisecond away
from doing the live read when the when the Gremlins
had attacked.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
That would have been awesome. I love that, and I
was at the time we had remember we had you
do an update one time when we have live updates overnight,
but he whacked Eddy and we had you do an update.
It was it was great.
Speaker 10 (29:58):
Yeah, that didn't go about and this would have gone
well either I was about to do the wrong live
read and then which one were you going to do?
I was gonna do the uh, I was gonna do
DraftKings when it was supposed to be expressed.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
We have a log here and you're supposed to read
the commercial at certain times, and if you don't read
the commercial. At a certain times you get the very
upsets and then they bother you during the day when
you're just trying to live your life and you say,
I do an over and I show, don't bother me.
Oh yeah, we did something wrong. Well I'm now call
me at three in the morning let me know what
I did wrong. I mean that's when I'm working. So anyway,
uh so poking the Brownies, it's the Baltimore Ravens have
(30:35):
planned a thirtieth anniversary celebration before the They say they
planned this before the Browns were the scheduled opponent. Now,
if you know the history of the Baltimore Ravens, they
are the old Cleveland Browns. So people in Cleveland are
so most are the up and arms and all this stuff.
But the Ravens are celebrating their thirtieth anniversary in the
(30:57):
Charm City during their but it's their home opening this weekend.
And there's some bad blood because the Ravens were owned
by Art Modell and rebranded the team, and so there's
people like you just you shouldn't be doing this and
all this what's wrong with you? I think it's pretty funny. Actually,
I think it's pretty funny that they're doing this. And
(31:18):
it shows you the level of incompetence of the new
Cleveland Browns that they're so hurt by this. How many
years have they had top five picks in the NFL draft,
top ten picks in the draft and they can't put
a competitive team on the field to save their life.
It's it's and so they're upset with the raven You
should be upset it yourself, not the Ravens. Let's go
(31:39):
back to the phones, Dick and Dayton. Speaking of that,
we'll see if he's offended. Hello, Dick and Dayton. Welcome Dick,
good morning. How are you the legendary Dick and Dayton,

Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Look, at that. Well, that's out saying a good job
by you, Dick. You're the king of the banjo.
Speaker 7 (32:45):
Well, I thought the Browns looked a little better Sunday,
but the Metal mistakes. They need a new kicker and
they're going to have to play a little bit better
because I couldn't even get on the show with Titus.
And yes, you know last week.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
It was so missy, but you're bothered by that. I
understand there. So now they're big underdogs, biggest underdog on
the board. I know you're not a gambler here, but
what do you think going into Baltimore the home opener
for the Ravens, the old Browns versus the new Browns.
Let's get the pick right now, Dick and Dayton. Go ahead.
Speaker 7 (33:20):
I give a score. I'm hoping to win, but I
think the Browns will win. In the last minute, They'll
get a wow.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
Browns are upset game. That's a massive upset Browns. Send
that out, Coop. The Browns are upsetting the Ravens on Sunday.
Holy crap, that is amazing. You've done it yet again, Dick,
yet again. You you never failed to get the job done.
You never give me a little taste of that Dick.

Hey, you know I'm trying to turn my life around
and rehabilitate myself up very much, taking the high road
right now. I've been best friends with Ben Malla for
a long time. We disagree on a lot of stuff
very much. What is going on right now is in disagreement.
Get the high road because I love Ben Mallee.
Speaker 1 (37:47):
Okay, thank you. I don't know what you mean by that,
but here we go. I think that's all we have
time for. Story number one Lady Gaga the middle of
her Mayhem Ball tour, but she's dressed up as a
different kind of ball. This past weekend for MTV, the
Lady Gaga showed up on the red carpet as a
giant tennis ball the US Open Final. Of course, you'll
(38:09):
do anything for the Internet these days, unless she didn't.
Story number two to be like Lady Gaga, The Phillies
Karen still hasn't been found, but a trading card company
has offered the woman five thousand dollars for the ball
she demanded that the father give to the kid, and
so I think five thousand probably not enough for the ball,
(38:30):
and they haven't found her yet, but she's got a
five thousand dollar offering. Story number three, The Dynamic due
O Connor McGregor hasn't fought in the octagon many years.
He's still very involved in MMA. He has a company
called Mixed Martial Arts Group that has focused on growing
the sport. And McGregor announced that Donald Trump Junior has
been hired as a strategic advisor. I wonder how much
(38:53):
that job pays. All right, those are the three stories.
One of the three is not true. We'll start out
with you Brooks in Florida going to Mickey Mousetown. Brooks
won two or three Brooks three? Number three? All right, Brooks,
hold on, we have a hollering James's in his birthday
suit one to or three James number okay?
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:13):
Colin who does events and he's on the iconic campus
or near it in Princeton. What's the answer there?
Speaker 8 (39:20):
Colin?
Speaker 3 (39:21):
Number one?
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Number one?
Speaker 3 (39:24):
All right?
Speaker 1 (39:25):
Rick and Maryland one morning time? Rick and Maryland, what's
the answer?
Speaker 3 (39:28):
Rick?
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Number number two? All right? And bitter blind Scott who's
upset with me? Oh he's oh he so he's he's up.
He'll send some nasty emails.
Speaker 8 (39:38):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (39:38):
And we don't have time to run out all the
stories the fake story. This week, we do have a winner.
Number one. Yes, Lady Gaga has warned some outrageous outfits
in her time that did not dress up as a tennant.
It'd be tough to walk as a tennis ball, right,
You couldn't sit down if you dressed up as a
(40:00):
tennis ball. But do you remember when Katy Perry dressed
up as a cheeseburger, Like, how practical could that be?
I know, well, we love cheeseburgers and were tennis ball
is not so much
