Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number four. Our four is
at the door, and we start out with the disgruntled
pass catcher Brandon Ayuc, who continues to be an impass
with the forty nine ers. So what happens next? Also,
Trevor Lawrence has defended his record setting historical Jacksonville contract.

(00:24):
Give me your reaction to that. And in Pittsburgh reports
say Russell Wilson has been motivated for the Steelers. Do
you see that as a big deal? All of it's
coming your way right now. Enjoy this twenty fifth day
of June. Happy Tuesday to you. Here's the original recipe podcast,
Our number four, Still Grumbling, Still Grumbling. Welcome, in the

(00:52):
beginning of another hour of the Ben Maler Show. We
are in the a every wares we hang out together
and try not to take a tumble. Coast to coast,
border to border and beyond on the vast and inconceivably
powerful microphones of fsre ammunating live from the operators station.

(01:19):
We are smooth operators, unless we're not all night long.
We're broadcasting live from the tyraq dot com studios. Tyraq
dot com will help you get there and unmatched selection
fast free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten
thousand recommended installers, and our buddy Big Greg and Iowa

(01:40):
trying to count that to that ten thousand tyraq dot com.
The way the tire mind should be in our lead
this hour, Unhappy in the Bay follow up, it's our
lead story here from northern Californias. We have the calm
before the storm. Training camps can open up in about

(02:02):
a month. The drama O rama, We're all about the
drama Orama. The drama O rama is in the forty
nine locker room training camp a few weeks away, tensions
being ratcheted up. Oh, the human drama of athletic competition
or in this case, contract negotiations. So if you haven't
been following along, Brandon Auk, the wide out who's good,

(02:26):
not great, He's good, continues to twist in the wind,
in the wind, whatever direction the wind blows down. The
forty nine ers are at loggerheads with Brandon Auk. They
have not been able to work out a solution to
his contract quagmire. And we're hearing now that Brandon Iyuk
joined a content farmer. That's what JJ Redick wuld say.

(02:48):
Content farmer Ryan Clark just playing the NFL. Now, he's
just another generic commentator and commenting about a couple of issues.
But the key part of it for our purposes, Brandon
IOK shows up on this podcast and he brought a friend.

(03:09):
The friend that he brought to this interview was Washington
Commander's quarterback Jaden Daniels. Not Brock Party. Not Brock Party,
No Jaden Daniels. They were hanging out together. Now, IOC
has taken the contract negotiations personally. It's not business, it's

(03:30):
personal over the last couple of months. So let us
discuss the question another plot twist to the ongoing saga,
the conundrum of the contract. And you're very concerned about
other people's money. But Brandon IOC continues to be at
impass with the forty nine ers. So what happens next?
What happens next? So I've got Kingsford, Masters and Verbo

(03:54):
and we will combine all of these things together and
we're gonna go skinny dipping, is what we're gonna do
now to kick off. We know what happens. We have
seen a thing or two because we've been doing this
job for a while. And here's the thing. Brandon IOK.
At this point in this part of the story, you
talk about Ryan Clark being a content farmer. Well, Brandon

(04:15):
IOK is a content a content creator is what he
is in this part of the story. And this is
a tinderbox that sounds like a snake and a tinder box. Yeah,
just like that. And so in order to get paid
or traded, what has to happen. We know what has
to happen. He has to raise a ruckus, an absolute ruckus.

(04:38):
Now that process is underway. Fly us up, because Brandon
IOK is cranking open the Kingsford Charcoal lighter fluid and
he's squirting out inflammatory commentary. That's what he's doing. You
have this bizarre bromance between the receiver and the Commander's quarterback,

(04:58):
Jaden Daniels IOK posting a video on social media somewhat
recently we talked about on the show than he was
telling Daniels, although he seemed to be smiling that the
forty nine ers said they don't want me, They don't
want me anymore. That's twilight zone stuff, is what this is.
Twilight zone. So let me get this straight. Brandon Ayuk

(05:23):
is with a team that's been in the Super Bowl
multiple times in recent years, not back to back, but
multiple times. And we are supposed to believe that he
would prefer to play for the Washington watcha mccollins. They've
got that hokey temporary name Commanders. They are going to
change that name again. It's bizarro world. As the world turns.

(05:44):
As the world turns, so expect more of a hullabaloo.
We'll have the obligatory daily Mallard monologue updates on Brandon
Ayuk as the story continues to be a page turn.
Oh the drama all right? Now, furthermore, it's being a drama.
Let's go to Jacksonville. Not a lot of drama there
other than when angry Bill occasionally calls up Trevor Lawrence.

(06:09):
That's my quarterback, not my quarterback, but Trevor Lawrence, who
was supposed to be God's gift to the quarterback position.
Then methinks not so much. Now Lawrence has come out
publicly and defend defended the record setting jack bar contract
that he agreed to recently. So give me your reaction

(06:29):
to that. Trevor Lawrence on the record defending the contract
that he got. So I give this a y A
w n a yawn. That's that's spells jeng. I believe
that's spells jeng. So catch catch some disease. Right, Trevor
Lawrence has a master's not a master from Clemson, but
he's got the masters of the obvious. What exactly were

(06:53):
you expecting Trevor Lawrence to say, Oh, this is a
holy overpaid batman. I should not have gotten this money.
I don't deserve this money. I haven't earned that payday.
Come on. Of course he's not going to say that.
This deal, though, continues to be football malpractice, small time
nitwits with the Jacksonville football team. Bad job by them.

(07:15):
They booked their plane ticket to Panic City so worried
that Trevor Lawrence would be a lame duck quarterback, even
though they have the franchise tag. They didn't have to
do this, they did it. Bad job by them. You
should not reward inferior performance in Trevor Lawrence. While I
thought he was going to be great, he has not

(07:37):
been great. And you look at the performance here, and
they're paying him on hope. They're not paying him on
what he's actually done or what he looks like he's
about to do. And So the Jacksonville football team is
guilty of obsessive wishful thinking is what they're guilty of

(07:58):
here on this contract. Bad job by then. But I
don't fault Trevor Lawrence for defending the contract. In fact,
I tell Don Martin, who runs Fox Sports Radio. I
run into Don a couple of times a year. My man,
I say, Don, let me tell you something. When you
give me that coward money. Okay, when you give me
that Colin coward money, I will. I will defend the contract.

(08:19):
I will, and I will not say anything negative. I
will if people ask me about how are they paying
you that much money? You're a loser. You do the
overnight show, you fight with handicapped people on the radio.
I say, you know what, that's a great move by Don.
That's what I would say. All right, last thing here,
we head now to Petsburg, PA. We're legends like the

(08:40):
bread Man, the dough Boy and Pete and Pittsburgh reside
and reports say that Russell Wilson has been quote motivated
close quote for the Steelers during the off season workouts.
Do you see this as a big deal? Do you
see this as a big deal? So I'm shaking my head,

(09:01):
no on this one. If this was a quiz show,
the category would be crap. We've known for months the
Steelers have been floating stories about Russell Wilson this and
Russell Wilson that, right up the wazoo, Right up the wazoo.
The issue, here's my thing with Russell Wilson. The issue

(09:22):
is not motivation. He is motivated. He was in Denver
and motivated with the Broncos. He was Remember that trans
continental flight across the Atlantic Ocean when Russell Wilson was
doing knee ups, high knee ups up and down the aisle.
One of the great moments in Bronco history on that

(09:43):
trans continental flight, because he was coming off an injury
and he wanted to make sure he was loosey goosey
while his teammates were trying to sleep and he was
doing high steps down the middle of the plane. Imagine
how much fun that must have been to the people
that were trying to sleep on the plane. I digress.
But he was motivated right now for Pittsburgh. The only

(10:05):
thing that matters, The only thing that matters is how
you do on the field. It's obvious, like all of
these things. It just matters how you do on the field,
and is a performance based situation for Russell Wilson. And
that's the problem. And even if he plays well at
his age, Russell Wilson is a short term rental. He's

(10:28):
a verbo. No bells and whistles. If you get a
few bells and whistles, that's great, that's wonderful. But he's
not gonna be in Pittsburgh even he plays well, which
I don't see on my bingo card him playing well.
But let's let's say you're an optimist, you're a cock
eyed optimist, and you think he's gonna play well. Okay,
was it two years? Three years? I don't think he'll

(10:49):
be there three years. I think it's a year and
that's it, and they'll move on to somebody else. But
the Steelers are just kind of hanging out temporarily. Let's
see what they got. They got nobody else better. The
guy they had last year was a turd in Kenny Pickett,
so they had to get somebody else. And that is
the QB skullduggery. That's the term skullduggery that's going on

(11:11):
in Pittsburgh. It is the Ben Maler Show. We had
a Stanley Cup handed out last night. The Florida Panthers
on Death's Store about to become an all time legendary
team Sina scenario. They won the game and they lost
their stature of being an all time team. They have
no fans. Even the local TV in Miami cut out

(11:32):
of the postgame show. Rather than celebrate the first championship,
they went to the local news because you know who cares.
They realized the local people in Miami in that area
would rather hear about the crime, the police blotter, and
the weather, and then they would information about the Florida
hockey tea. Now Edmonton, they had all the momentum, you

(11:56):
idiots said, of course, I pointed out that was not
the case, and then they went down in flames. So
another hockey season is coming gone, and we have the
NBA Draft in a couple of days. That's the next
big event. And we also have coming up for you
the hockey drafts right around the corner as well. If
you're a draftnick, you get all horny for the draft.
It's a big week for you. You cant really excited, get

(12:17):
a little tingling for the different drafts that are coming up.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
Ricardo writs, and he says, Hey, Ben, we could be
as coaches. After JJ Reddick the podcaster got the job
with the Lakers. Yeah, this is a golden era for
people to do sports media content. Now Jeff Saturday got
hired as the Colts coach with no coaching experience. They
gave him the head coaching job there in Indy that
didn't go so well. And now JJ Reddick, podcaster gets

(14:19):
the Laker coaching job. These are wild times. These are
absolute wild times that we are living in. Let's go
to the phones. We'll salo to Andrea who is in Berkeley,
and she is up next. He's got the Star charts
out and she's analyzing Grimace and other McDonald Land characters
and how they relate to the New York Metropolitans.

Speaker 5 (14:42):
Yes, Hi, Dan, how are you?

Speaker 1 (14:45):
If I was any better, I'd be an athletic, But
not in Oakland athletic because they stink and they're leaving.
But your other team, the Mets, they're on the way back.

Speaker 5 (14:57):
Yeah, they got they won seven in a roh and
uh Pete Alonzo, you know, I really like him. He's
his optimistic, fun loving Sagittarius and he always talks. You know,
he's tuned into Mercury retrogade cycles and he's very tuned
into Grimace. And he credits Grimace for the Mets winning

(15:17):
streak of seven in a row that actually puts them
back in the playoff run.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
So you think Grimmas put something in their milkshakes or
something was there and that's what happened.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
Well, you might have a point there, Ben to think about.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
To date, there might be some some tainting of the
Mets clubhouse. They have a shake machine in there.

Speaker 5 (15:38):
And problem and what was this Grimace. I'm doing my due, Dilli.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
You were doing Grimace research.

Speaker 5 (15:45):
Yes, he was with McDonald's, right.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Well that's the famous Yes, they had the Grimace shake
a couple of months, but it was a couple of months.
It seemed like a couple months ago. They had at
McDonald's and yeah, yeah, he's one of the iconic McDonald
land characters. Right, what's his sign?

Speaker 5 (16:00):
You know, I've been studying that and they didn't say
his birthdate.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
I looked hard, Eddie, do you have a birth time
on Grimace? I'll see what I can find. Come on,
I know what's wrong with you. Grimas's birthday is June twelfth.

Speaker 5 (16:12):
Oh, isn't it so? Grimmace is a Gemini. You know
that makes sense. They're curious, restless, easily bored, clever, playful. No,
Geminis are fun in that way. They're pretty, you know, experimental.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
I'm impressed you did not miss a beat there. That
is impressive. Man, right off the bat. Uh, Grimmas was
born in let's see here, in nineteen seventy one. Oh really,
what an old fart.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
I's gonna say he's already had a satur return. Yeah,
he's having his midlife crisis.

Speaker 1 (16:48):
Unbelievable for Grimace seventy one. Holy conoley.

Speaker 5 (16:53):
But you know, as long as he doesn't take the
place of mister men because that's who I grew up with,
and that's who my favorite is.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Now, like mister Mett. But mister Met's married now, he's
a taken me. I met, right, Missus med When did
they add Missus Met? When was that? That was not
that long ago? I feel like Missus Mett hasn't been
around that long.

Speaker 5 (17:10):
Yeah, I'd agree with that, assessmin. I'll have to look
into that.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Last time I was at a Mets game in New York,
I don't remember. I know mister Met was there. I
do not remember the Missus Met.

Speaker 5 (17:20):
Yeah, yeah, she might be a new edition. Yeah, she's
kind of cute. I like her energy. You know, she's
playful and kind of you know, includes women in the
sport missus Mett. Oh, she's on Instagram. What do you know? Okay,
I'm going to try to find her birth date?

Speaker 1 (17:36):
Is a missus med an OnlyFans model? By chance?

Speaker 2 (17:39):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (17:39):
This is this is actually a return for missus Mett.
Oh really yeah, she started out as Lady Met in
the mid nineteen sixties. Oh, and then and then became
Missus Mett in the seventies, really seventies, but then she
was they were both face Mister and Missus Mett were
phased out in the eighties.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Mister Mett came back in ninety four. Yes, I remember
I was there in the nineties when mister Met came back.

Speaker 6 (18:03):
Yeah, but Missus Mett was gone until she made a
brief appearance in twenty oh five.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Because mister Met was a swinging bachelor in those days,
they broke offs, right, he was out playing the town
with other mascots.

Speaker 6 (18:15):
And then twenty thirteen is when missus when they made
up and renewed their vows.

Speaker 5 (18:21):
Oh, okay, good to know. So twenty thirteen, so it's
a little over ten years ago. Okay, so that's interesting
right there.

Speaker 1 (18:32):
Next time you call up, we have to break down,
Mayor mccheese, we'll have to do a deep dive on Metoh,
this is what's that? This is greatio.

Speaker 6 (18:41):
So when when missus Met came back in twenty thirteen,
A senior Met's official reported that Missus Met had been
working as an event planner and was ready to return
to full time work now that her children are grown.

Yeah, that's funny. Thank you, Derek. Alright, bye, bye bye.
There he goes Dick and Dayton and again two dicks there.
We only knew the one, but there's two.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Back to that Phillies Tigers game. Did you see we
had a rare occurrence. Not only was it a triple play,
but a one three to five triple play. That's the
picture to the first basement to the third baseman. First
time we've had a one to three to five triple
play since nineteen twenty nine when the Tigers did it

(26:36):
against the Red Sox.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Well, that seems like a fun fact, Eddie, but that's
not the official fun fact at the bottom of the hour.

Speaker 10 (26:42):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
It seems pretty fun to me.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
No, no, no, let's have more funn maler fun fact.
In that same Philadelphia Philly game, the Philly struck out
seventeen times. That is the third time this season that
they have had at least seventeen strackouts in the game.
Their record in those games three and zero. They have

(27:04):
not lost when they do that. And bonus fun fact,
bonus fun fact, hit it again fun fact. A Golf
Galaxy employee who shot a sixty five. He was pounding
beers and qualified for the PGA Tours Rocket Mortgage Classic.

(27:28):
This is going to be a movie someday. It's a
Cinderella story. It's an amazing job. So this guy works,
he's got a day job at Golf Galaxy and plays
like he's an amateur, semi professional but mostly amateur. Golfer
small scale tournaments here and there, and this guy while
while drinking, he went out there teed it up at

(27:50):
the Detroit Golf Club on Thursday with the big Boy's
gonna be gonna be doing that they rocket mortgage tournament.
But he qualified drinking beer and just having any fussing around.
And let's say hello to Blind Scott, who is hanging
out on the North end of Boston. Hello, Blind Scott, Hey,

(28:11):
what's up?

Speaker 5 (28:11):
Ben?

Speaker 7 (28:12):
Yeah?

Speaker 11 (28:12):
I was listening to that Florida Panthers call last night
when they won the Cup. If you listen a little longer,
it's worth listening. The guys starts saying how big balls
all the players on the Florida Panthers have. If you
listen just for like twenty more seconds, it's pretty funny.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
I don't know is that true? Any Did he talk
about the testicles of the players. Is that accurate? Yeah?
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (28:33):
Okay, Yeah, he started going to have huge cahonas and everything.
I listened to both calls last night. I wasn't a
big span econom er David because I saw how he
treats his girlfriend of eight years. He like hooks up
with any woman that wik up with him in any
city you can. You can look it up. It's on
the internet. They call him hockey Jesus, more like hockey
infidelity Jesus, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
But it doesn't have the same ring to it though.
Hockey Jesus has a good name, like the hockey Judas
maybe Judas. Yeah, ever, Dennis, Remember Dennis Rodman's Father's name
was wasn't it Philander or something like that? Seriously? I
think that was his name, Filander.

Speaker 11 (29:12):
I thought his father was I thought his father was
Jerome from Charlestown.

Speaker 8 (29:17):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (29:17):
Wow, look at you taking Yeah, check this out.

Speaker 8 (29:25):
I was right.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
How many people can name Dennis Robins father Philander Rodman
who was a Philander?

Speaker 7 (29:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (29:33):
Yeah, he lived up to the name.

Speaker 11 (29:36):
I got to tell you this sorter about any Spaniard.
He was on the air like two weekends, two weekends ago,
and he was throwing up when he was on the air.
That's how bad his show was. Like he was literally sick.

Speaker 1 (29:45):
He had too much of that maple syrup from from
his homeland.

Speaker 11 (29:50):
Did you hear about this? He refused to take the
show up with everybody that was working with him wondering
he went, he went missing and everything. You know what
I mean? The guy, You got to get him on
the f feller.

Speaker 1 (30:00):
Hey, you, he's afraid of you. He's afraid of He
won't come on. He won't even fill in for me
when I take a night off. He's afraid of the
malor militia.

Speaker 11 (30:08):
One time I threatened him and told him, like Jerome
said to me, if you ever come to Boston, I
was going to do something nasty to him. So I
think he's afraid to come to Boston.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Even he's over for myn He's not that far away,
but he's not.

Speaker 8 (30:23):
Yeah, I don't get what he's in for, mom.

Speaker 11 (30:26):
But he's from He's from California. It makes no sense
that he's up there. Jrome calls every show that takes
phone calls. Then he hoards himself out to every show man.
You're gonna limit his time, maybe because he's on every radio.

Speaker 1 (30:38):
All right, I had to go, thank you, go go
real quick. Let's all little Mark, who's also hanging out
in Boston. What's going on? Mark?

Speaker 12 (30:45):
Yeah, last night proves that the NHL is a freaking joke.

Speaker 1 (30:49):
I agree with you, it's embarrassing.

Speaker 11 (30:52):
I understand.

Speaker 12 (30:53):
I understand that Conor McDavid broke one one of Wayne's record.

Speaker 1 (31:00):
I didn't think you're going there.

Speaker 12 (31:01):
Okay, the forty two points in the playoffs, Okay, you
got the eight points in games four and five, but
did absolute crap.

Speaker 13 (31:10):
In game six and seven and yet stick it up Babronski.

Speaker 12 (31:14):
But by not giving Bobroski the MVP, I didn't want
them to win.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
But hold on, wait, wait, wait, well, hold how do
you how do you get away? Riddle me this? How
do you give Bbrovski the MVP when the last three
games prior to game seven his save percentage started with
the seven How can you give him the MVP? You
can't give him the MVP?

Speaker 13 (31:35):
I understand that, but if not the last night he
stopped everything.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Last night, they didn't stop everything. I mean it was
one they scored one goal, Edmond.

Speaker 7 (31:45):
He won that game for them last night.

Speaker 12 (31:48):
I mean, come on, that's just kissing call him, David.

Speaker 1 (31:52):
I'm not kissing his ass. I don't I don't look
at him that way. But you're upset, so you wanted
the goaltender who got smoked the previous three games to
be the con smyth one I got the guy.

Speaker 13 (32:03):
Deserved what he did all playoffs. Okay, just just for
all the hockey geniuses out there that keep posting, all
this is the first time since nineteen seventy six that
the guy from the losing team won the MVP. Wrong
wanted Yeah, yeah, three.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
You're right. So if this happened five times, O three
was the last time? All right? You feel you feel better?
Now you want to you want to rip anybody else,
go ahead, rip somebody else. I don't want to rip
anybody else.

Speaker 12 (32:30):
I just think Lebronski got screwed. I didn't want them
to win.

Speaker 1 (32:33):
All right. Now here's the question, though, there's some rumors
that Leon dry Sidle well, he's done with Edmontons he's
gonna leave. What about him to the Bruins.

Speaker 12 (32:41):
He looked very disinterested.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Yeah, he didn't. He didn't well, he didn't play well,
they said. They claim he's hurt, but he played.

Speaker 12 (32:47):
So you gotta you know, we'll see, we'll see tomorrow
that maybe he was playing. Maybe you don't know the
trees burn.
