Speaker 1 (00:00):
O maha, O maha omaha. It's our dumbber four, our
four of the original Recipe podcast. We thank you for listening,
giving us five stars on the podcast. Telling friends about
the podcast. On this April twenty ninth, on this Tuesday,
how do you assess the Bill Belichick Jordan Hudson dynamic
with North Carolina football? We'll talk about that Arch Manning

(00:24):
said to be dodging the NFL Draft for two more
seasons at Texas, believe it or not. And we are
told that after trading with the Eagles, the Browns will
not exercise quarterback Kenny Pickett's fifth year contract option by
this week's deadline. Does that make sense to you? We'll
talk about all of those stories and more right now

(00:46):
here it is. Have a great Tuesday. It's our number four,
the Bill Shill heard round the football world. Welcome in
the beginning hour of the Ben Malar Show. We are
in the air everywhere, enjoying these happy days born to

(01:11):
be mild, unless we weren't coast to coast, border the
border and beyond on the vast and abundantly powerful microphones
of fsre emmating live from the line, the goal line
formation hanging out here at the Fox Sports Radio studios,
approved by Personanan Garrata and this portion of the Ben

(01:34):
Malor Show made possible in part by tire Iraq. For
over forty years, Tyraq has been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what and where they drive. Ship
fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection with
convenient installation options like mobile tire installation ti raq dot
com the way tire buying should be. So our lead

(01:55):
this hour is not from pro bouncy ball Golden State
up three to one they won last night, is they
came back in the second half playoff, Jimmy getting it done,
Jimmy Butler in the Golden State Wars a winning wall.
Butler's former team, the Miami Heat, gave up the thing
you can't do in professional sports. They quit. Unbelieve this
should have been a mercy rule. Lost by almost sixty points.

(02:19):
They were down by sixty Miami. The Cleveland Cadavers have advanced.
But our lead this hour is from the story that
everyone's talking about the Belichickian world. Now. Belichick has not
even coached his first game at North Carolina, and his
story from over the weekend continues to have list. We
talked about it in a previous episode a little bit.

(02:39):
There's some new information out on it, the fallout from
the Cringe The cringe Worthy Interview of the Week. Bill
Belichick sat down with Sibbiz CBS News on a special
that aired on Sunday, part of a long form news program.
The reason for doing this was to promote his book.

(03:03):
Of course, the chat was hijacked. It was commandeered by
his sugar baby, who wanted to make sure she was
a big part of it, and Jordan Hudson, who is
becoming quite the character in the sporting world, as she
went full whack a doodle in the clip that went

(03:23):
viral during Belichick's interview. If you have not seen it,
if you have not heard about it, I recommend to
hearing the audio. The video's fine, but the audio is
all you need. And it got to the point. This
is the new information we're now learning that the twenty
four year old sugar baby of Bill Belichick was so

(03:43):
upset by the questions she stormed out of the interview
and took Bill Belichick with her. There was a thirty
minute delay thirty minute delay in the middle of this
interview session because she needed a time out, and she
took Bill Belichick. Whether now there are some other new
developments to add on to that. If you've not been following,

(04:06):
maybe not are our latest chatter on the Bill Belichick interview.
We're hearing now the awkward situation is not going very
well with the current employer of Bill Belichick. That would
be a certain university that likes to wear powder blue,
and they're in North Carolina. TMZ tells us the University

(04:28):
of North Carolina. Big shots at that school are now
concerned panic at the disco. They are worried about Jordan
Hudson and her influence over Bill Belichick and his gig
as a head coach at that university in Chapel Hill. Essentially,

(04:49):
what they are concerned about here is that she has
taken over a fully immersive role as his manager. There's
a growing sense that this is going to become a problem.
All right, No, really, Sherlock. Okay, so let us discuss
the question, how do you assess Bill Belichick and his

(05:09):
sugar baby Jordan Hudson the dynamic as it relates to
the North Carolina football program. So I have Chicken Coop,
David Hasselhoff and track and field, and we will combine
all of these things together, and we are going to
put the biscuit in the basket. Is what we're going
to do. Now to kick off, here, Bill Belichick watching

(05:34):
the clip again, because what else am I gonna do?
Bill Belichick appeared to be zombiefied if you will. Here
it was wild the curmudgeon of curmudgeon football coaches now
summer saying this is just editing by CBS, and they
made Belichick look bad. Belichick wore this navy sweater which
didn't look that old, but there was like a rip

(05:55):
in it. Kind of looked like you know how people
would buy jeans and they'll buy them with rips in them,
like he bought it and somebody, I don't know it
her or him or somebody ripped it to make it
look like it was. It was very, very bizarre. But
you look at the clip and this is the curmudgeon
of curmudgeons. And for part of it it was classic Belichick,

(06:16):
like he was back coaching the Patriots. He was an
a hole and a total schmuck. And then there was
this other part of it was like he's being brainwashed.
It's like mind control is he frightened. Is he being
held captive by this young woman who's much much younger
than he is, forty nine years his junior. Not only

(06:37):
did he moved to Chapel Hill, Bill Belichick, not only
did that happen, but it looks like he has moved
in not to a mansion in Chapel Hill, he's moved
into a chicken coop because he's being henpecked. Right now.
It would have beer completely whipped, Bill Belichick. And you
talk about being under someone's thumb, I mean, what is

(06:58):
going on here now? Fry Daddy in Pennsylvania thinks he
knows exactly what's going on here. He believes that there's
a certain superpower that Jordan Hudson has that she's using
that Belichick has fallen victim to. I don't know she
had Dominatrix or something like that. I don't know. I
have no idea. But Belichick calls Hudson his creative muse,

(07:19):
which sounds like something she came up with, not him.
But I digress. And looking to the future though, and
I'm never wrong about this. As a distant relative of
No Stredamas and friend of No Stritenus, you look into
the future. As long as the tar Hills are winning,
we're good, right, This is not an issue. If North
Carolina comes out and they have a successful year, They're

(07:40):
gonna have a lot of TV games. It's deja vu,
very similar to what Dion Sanders brought to Colorado. Belichick
could bring that to North Carolina. So if you win,
that is the Tom Ford cologne. That is what covers
up the really foul smells from Jordan Hudson. If North
Carolina is at the very bottom, down, down, down, down, down,

(08:03):
they suck and it's a mess, then that is where
the poopy hits the fanny. And if you know what
I'm saying there, and so you'll get daily updates, minute
by minute updates on the blame and shame of North
Carolina football and passive aggressive stories will come out about
Belichick and Jordan Hudson and they'll be guilt tripping, why

(08:26):
did we do this? You know she but I don't
know what she's doing. I don't know exactly what's going on,
but it does that. Some does smell right, some does
not smell right. In that. We can go on and on,
but you get the point, all right, Now, for them,
we are pin wheeling our way to Austin, Texas. This
is a hybrid source. Not at a college story, and

(08:47):
it's not an NFL story. It's both college and the NFL.
The focus. Since the twenty twenty five draft is over,
immediately the nerds have turned their attention to twenty twenty six.
We're looking at ed who's on the big board, Who's
on the big boy. I believe the draft next year
is in Pittsburgh. Who's on the big board. So the

(09:08):
chatter has been for some time that that will be
the draft of arch Manning. Twenty twenty six will be
the year of arch Manning. The Longhorns quarterback is expected
to be at the very top, if not number one,
in terms of all the quarterbacks. Or is he or
is he? We're now hearing that arch Manning is not

(09:30):
not planning on leaving Austin, Texas in the Longhorn football
program for two more seasons, two of them now, according
to someone named Field Yates. He says that he has
spoken to NFL scouts and the expectation is that arch
Manning will stay put at the University of Texas for

(09:52):
a couple of years. A couple of years, so Arch Manning,
who by most accounts would be the top quarterback in
next year's draft, to dodge the NFL draft for two
more seasons and stay quarterback of the Texas Longhorns. Believe
it or not so after a minutes long Malared deliberation,

(10:15):
minutes long Mallar deliberation, I am agnostic. I am not
a believer on this. I do not believe Q the
David Hasselhof tune. Do the limbo dance. Do the limbo
dance here. It's to be determined, right, you're doing the
limbo and look, it is going to depend obviously on

(10:35):
who gets the number one pick. If that is an
attractive team and really city for the Manning family, the
patriarch of the NFL, then Arch Manning will leave. If
it is the Cleveland Browns, he ain't going. But you
think about who are the worst teams in the NFL.
It's usually the same teams at the very bottom, and

(10:58):
they draft at the very top. So it's not that
hard to figure out who sucks. You just look at
the teams that sucked last year that haven't gotten any better,
and it'll be some combination of those teams that will
be near the top yet again and the usual bottom
feeding teams. Now there has been some chatter that there'll
be teams tanking if they think they can get Arch Manning,

(11:21):
but that is to be determined also. So now keep
in mind Arch Manning is not the sun. Some people
are confused. Is he the sort of Peyton man or
eliveman now? But it doesn't matter, And I'll tell you why.
It doesn't matter because he is under the umbrella, the
shield of protection from the family. The Manning family has

(11:42):
a reputation of manipulation when it comes to the NFL drafted.
You don't believe me. Ask anyone that used to watch
the old San Diego Chargers about how that went down
back in the day. So I'm not all in on
Arch Manning staying for two years at Texas. I think
that's even though he's making money in NILS making as much.

(12:05):
I guess he turned down the video game cover, the
college football video game cover. I saw that somewhere. So anyway,
all right, the fam has got a lot of money.
They're all loaded. They're all loaded, all right. Now, last stop,
we go to Cleveland, where the Browns are not only
a football team, they are horrific and we are told
that after trading with the Eagles, the Browns will not

(12:28):
be exercising the Kenny Pickett fifth year contract option. The
deadline is coming up this week, So does that make sense?
The Browns went out and traded for Kenny Pickett. At
this point, he's the favorite to be the starting quarterback
for the Cleveland Browns, but they will not be picking
up his fifth year option. Does that make sense? And

(12:49):
the only acceptable answer, the only one is one hundred percent.
One hundred percent. The Browns took a flyer on Kenny Pickett,
it's all. He didn't give up anything. They trained it
essentially some manure to get some fertilizer. Let's try the fertilizer.
We were done with the manure. So they sent Dorian

(13:11):
Thompson Robinson DTR. That's a DTR short for I stink.
They sent him to Philadelphia for Picket and there was
also a draft pick involved. So the twenty twenty five season,
by any reasonable measurement, is an audition. It is an
opportunity for Kenny Pickett to prove that he does not

(13:33):
play garbage all the time, that he actually does something
there because he's been el stinko and when he's had
the opportunity to play back when he was in Pittsburgh.
So Picket will earn two point six million and he's poor.
At two point six million, that's his contract, final year
of his rookie contract, and that's it, and then a
free agency at the end of the season in the

(13:57):
end of twenty twenty five. So again, just to reare,
it's kind of obvious, this becomes a track and field
event for Kenny Pickett. It is a track and field event.
It is the dummy run. The flaggers up on the
dummy run, play well, and we can talk that there's

(14:17):
no way you could possibly give him the fiftyear option
if they if the Browns gave no this the Browns,
I mean, they're a messy franchise, but if you gave
the fift year option, you'd be paying a guy that's
proven he can't play so far an extra year of
the contract for twenty two point one million. There is
a better chance that Kenny Pickett ends up being released

(14:39):
by week ten, then he ends up starting every game
and leading the Cleveland Browns to the plays. There's a
much better chance or even just starting every game, all right,
is the Ben Mahlers Show. If you'd like to comment
on any of that, you are more than welcome to
check in here. There's a line open at eight seven
seven ninety nine on f that's eight seven seven nine

(15:02):

Ben Mallard, that's at Ben Mahler. Later this hour, we're
gonna have Sit the Bite, the Great sports radio mystery site,
The Bite straight Ahead a starting quarterback who's been a
long time starting quarterback in the NFL blasting the media.

(15:24):
He's up set with the media, and he gave a
sermon attacking the EVA football media. Because there's one thing
I know, the football media. They don't suck up to
the players at all. They don't lick the boots of
these quarterbacks at all. It never happens. We'll explain what
that is all about, will take your calls, the whole thing,

(15:44):

than older than some. I guess I'm older than the most.
Now I'm old. I'm not old the most. I mean
kind of in the middle, but I'm leaning towards the
older side. How about that?

Speaker 8 (19:16):
The older side soft?

Speaker 1 (19:19):
Or right at that line, you know, right at that
part of the demarkation, Hey, what about you?

Speaker 8 (19:38):

I go ahead, Lorena, I'm gonna guess thirty.

Speaker 6 (19:57):

Speaker 1 (20:08):
No, I wasn't ten years.

Speaker 9 (20:10):
I was.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
I was close. I was within ten years.

Speaker 8 (20:13):
Ye're over you were ten years. I was told I
look young. I got a babyface. I was told by
a bunch of different people, you're the.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Baby say the baby face. Assassin is what you are
with the trash exactly.

Speaker 8 (20:27):
Ben, I'm coming about Bill Belichick. This guy for twenty
five years, I saw him. I'm close over here because
i'm you know, obviously, I live in Boxton. He was
an alpham alpham mil for twenty five years. He never
gave away any information. Now he looks like an absolute clown.
I think you agree with that. He's a puppet. Now.
And this woman here, Jordan's she's not formal, but this

(20:52):
is a twenty four year old, very attractive woman. Nobody
believes that she actually is attracted old Kelli.

Speaker 6 (21:00):
Check.

Speaker 8 (21:00):
This guy is seventy five years old. Ben, what is
going on it comic?

Speaker 1 (21:05):
I think we know what's going on here. I think
we know what's what is inspiring this relationship here, Danny,
I don't think it's that hard. It's the oldest, most
valuable thing out there.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
That people.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yeah, there's money, and then there's something that Bill wants
it is I don't think. I don't think money is
what he's asking this. He's got the money Bill. Bill
realizes his early again, he's like seventy three, but he's like,
I can't take the money with me, but I can
really enjoy myself until I got to check out. So
I'm thinking on her side. Well yeah, well obviously, because

(21:38):
I don't think on her.

Speaker 8 (21:40):
I don't know if he's joining her. I mean, guys,
you know, he's up in his mid seventies. I don't
know if anything works that good anymore.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
But if he is, there's there's pills for that. I mean,
they got supplements, you know, there's things you can take that.
You know, you go to the shan Heffner was going
to until ninety. Yeah, he went right up into the end.
The day he croaked, he enjoyed himself. That's true. It

(22:09):
just seems like it was. I'm saying he was buried,
that's what did him, and he went out doing what
he loves right there. Yeah, all right, thank you, all right,
it is thank you Baddy. All Right, you're much younger
than me. You're a big stut. All right, thank you,
go away. All right, let's say hello to Mike the Leprecaun.
Hello Mike the lepreca on a polarizing figure on the show.

Yeah, now they're doing what they're supposed to do. I

a fun fact. Fun fact, yes, a fun fact that

(26:31):
you need to watch the Rocky Braves game today. Why
is that? Why do you need to watch the Rocky
Braves game today? Because the Rockies will tie the Major
League Baseball all time record for the worst twenty nine
games start in Major League Baseball history if they lose
to the Atlanta Braves later today. In Colorado, the Rockies

(26:53):
are four and twenty four. They are currently tied for
the fourth worst start in the history of baseball, which
goes back to the eighteen hundreds. Oh man, do they blow?
And uh yeah, so the nineteen eighty eight Orioles. And
I was a young lad and the Orioles horrifically bad.

(27:14):
It's to start the year. I think they were like,
oh and twenty one or something instead of the year. Anyway,
the eighty eight Orioles are they own the record for
the worst thirty five games start. They were five and
thirty and they also had the worst forty games start
they were they were six and thirty four. But the
Colorado Rockies and no one's talking about how bad they are,

(27:36):
but they have a shot at the worst twenty nine
game start in the history of baseball. And let's go Bravos,
let's go Braves. Come on, and that fun fact made
possible by Rocket Mortgage. Rocket is giving every home one address.
Rocket dot com a single, seamless homeownership platform to help

(27:57):
you find, buy, sell, finance, even refund. I ask your
home everything you need, all under one roof. Is it
Rocket dot com the new home for all things home ownership?
Rocket Own the Dream. Let's go to alamea Loo. Who's
in the bay? Hello, alamead a lou?

Speaker 9 (28:16):
Hey Ben, how's it going?

Speaker 1 (28:18):
If I was any better, I'd be a Butler, But
not Jimmy Butler because he kicked ass in the second half.

Speaker 9 (28:24):
Yeah, it was a great Warriors win, but I'm not
gonna talk about that too much. No, I don't think.

Speaker 6 (28:30):
I kind of want to.

Speaker 9 (28:31):
I kind of want to tell you. When the Clippers
lost on a last second alley up at some buzzer
and the closest way that I've ever seen any team
lose in basketball, it made me shudder because I knew
Coop was smiling while Ben Maller was just probably.

Speaker 1 (28:48):
No, I was fine. The Clippers are still The Clippers
are still winning this serioes. The Nuggets blew a twenty
two point lead hold on The Nuggets blew a twenty
two point lead, the game was over, and the Clippers
get all the way back and had a chance to
win the game at the end. So yeah, and the
Nuggets suck. They're losing. Uh, the Clippers are winning tonight,
and so that's it's no moral victory. And maybe Coop

(29:11):
was happy for a minute when the Clippers lost the game.
But I had a I had a Cheshire cat smile
when the Minnesota Timberwolves one dominated on Sunday.

Speaker 9 (29:21):
Yeah, I love the Lakers losing. I love LA which
reminds me of the San Francisco Giants, are also first
place in the AL West. And I was at the
game when Elliott Ramo's little league walked it off inside
the park. I don't think I'll ever see anything like
that again.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
You will. If you go to a little league field
on a Saturday morning, you'll see that probably two or
three times. If you stay there all day on Saturday,
you'll see that.

Speaker 9 (29:45):
Happy birthday.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
All right, thank you. I love that you call. I
love that you called up to point out that the
Clippers lost. Thank you. What a wonderful call. Go go
away all right, all right? Thank you? Uh sayalo to
we have your aeny meaning money more let's go to Nick.
Nick is in Berkeley. He's got the pipes, Nick's got
the big voice.

Speaker 8 (30:06):
Hello Nick, Welcome, Hey Ben Warriors, come out and play.

Speaker 6 (30:10):
Baby. I'm telling you, but we ain't done nothing yet.
Three down, thirteen to go, baby, We're still We're still
a long way to go before the top. And let
me tell you this, Bill Belichick, man, he couldn't speak. Man,
his tongue was worn out, you know what I'm saying.
And I did the malven math. I crunched numbers, and
let me tell you something man like like Bill Belichick.
Then he had to have got a little hook up

(30:31):
from his boy, a certain NFL owner. You know what
I'm saying. He might've been down there in Florida running
out the back door during that little sting a few
years ago. I'm saying, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
So you think they were together at the orchards of
Asia Day Spa there in Florida. Yes, first right, little
Rubin tog action, I got you, all right, yes, yes, sir.

Speaker 6 (30:48):
And let me just tell you something, man Green, he
disappeared into the event of our stadium because he got
bolt space and Butler just turned up, turned it up
and not just shitting into six gear on him. He
took off, you know what I'm saying. So that was
that well.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Also Dylan Dylan Brooks of the Rockets also challenged Jimmy Butler.

Speaker 6 (31:06):
Yeah, yeah, I know that's that's that's not a good
move because Jay Bugsy as I call him, he's not
playing that.

Speaker 11 (31:11):
He's a game.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Well, I gotta tell you, man, a nig I thought
in the first time, I was like, Wow, Jimmy Butler's
a decoy, Like he only took a few shots, he
wasn't really that involved. I was like, he's just out
there as a decoy. And then all of a sudden,
the second half, it was like the same old Jimmy
Butler kicking button and then who knew?

Speaker 6 (31:26):
Who knew that the Warriors would actually have Twin Towers.
They put it in Twin Towers tonight both and I
don't know what he's he having the high school flash
back student threes from way out of my bro stopping
with the threes getting the key your name is prob.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
I wouldn't know, maybe the new version of the Splash
Brothers or something like that on a Twin Towers. I
don't know who you go there for brothers.

Speaker 6 (31:46):
Yeah, but hey, man, let me let me ask you this,
what do you think about the comments about what Brady
was saying about Shador and how Brady was mentoring him
for a little bit and then all of a sudden
he wasn't and he was, and he put it and
Brady ended up criticizing the honest that he wasn't the
finish pinict when he got NFL either.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
Yeah. I know, it's it's a it's a it's a
mad man. Everyone's doing damage control now. People are like
trying to, you know, spin it in their direction. But
there's obviously stuff going on. I mean, you don't drop
to the fifth even if I thought he was a
second round pick or late first round, but you don't
go to the fifth round, unles. You've got some serious
stuff going on behind the scenes. I gotta leave it there,
But thank you, Nicky. There's the great nick there in Berkeley.

(32:26):
Let's say hello to Eenie Meenie miney mo h oh.
