It's our number four, Our four of the original Recipe podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Happy Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
It's the fifth day of February, and the NFL has
decided to relax rules for Tom Brady to broadcast the
Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
That is blank so different Brady rules. Those are gone.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
The Pro Bowl hit record lows for TV viewership. What's
the lesson to the NFL? The Pro Bowl games? They
had a game show, they played tic tac toe, all that,
and we'll also discuss a recent national broadcast of the
NHL drew less than two hundred thousand dollars. They were
(00:45):
beaten by a women's college basketball game. How should the
hockey people handle that embarrassment. We'll get to all of
those stories and much more. Right now, give it up
for our number four and have a wonderful Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Here it is. It is all about the Brady brunch er, buncher, cruncher.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, well, gome in the beginning of another hour of
the Benmahlor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
We are in the air everywhere as we wallow in
the mire and avoid the Golden Sombrero coast the coast, border,
the border and beyond on the vast and articulately powerful
microphones of FSR amminating.

Speaker 4 (02:09):
B.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I know our friend really woke guy, the really Woke
guy on X big fan of the number ten thousand.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
So our lead this hour is from the broadcast booth
as we get closer to Super Bowl fifty nine and
how many people watch the Super Bowl with the sound on?
And how many people watch the Super Bowl with the
sound off. Now I'm a bit of a loser when
it comes to the Super Bowl. I normally try to
(02:39):
watch by myself. I've been to parties over the years,
and I always have to work after the Super Bowl,
like immediately after the game, within a couple hours after
come do the show. So I feel like I need
laser light focus. So I don't like normally being at
parties because I don't get to really watch the game
because I'm I'm dragged into social awkward social situations, and
(03:00):
I'm a bit of an introvert. So I normally will
sit in a moment of zen watching the game and
taking copious amounts of notes on my little note thing
on my phone, and I'm watching the game, and I
normally have the sound on, even though most of the
broadcasters annoy me, I still have the sound on. So
as we prepare for this Sunday, the game is on Fox,
(03:24):
so you better watch Super Bowl fifty nine. One change
is coming. The Brady Rules, the Brady Rules. So Tom
Brady he's going to to his first Super Bowl broadcast.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
He's played in a bunch of these games, but his.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
First broadcast with Fox Sports. And he's a of course
a Raider bit owner, bit owner in the Raiders. But
it turns out that the Brady rules have been silenced.
If you didn't hear about this, maybe not. Brady will
now be allowed to take part in production meetings with
Tansa City, the rival of the Raiders up to the
(04:00):
game Clark Hunt, the man that was born and won
the genetic lottery Clark Hunt, the chiefs owner, has informed
the media that the Brady rules have been put offside
for this game. And normally Brady is not allowed, not
(04:20):
allowed to hang out at another team facility, cannot criticize officials,
cannot watch practice, and cannot attend production meetings, and so
that's it. Can't do it in person or virtually. Now,
those production meetings are when guys like Jim Nance and
Joe Back and Troy Aikman Tony Romo play grab ass
(04:45):
with the coaches and the star players, And the coaches
and the star players tell them their entire game plan,
They tell them what to look for, They pretty much
give them every nugget of information. Now, the reason that
coaches and star players do that is beca because they
know these jobs are easy in media and so they
want to get one. So they figure by sucking up
(05:05):
to a guy like Jim Nance er Joe Buck, they'll
end up getting a broadcasting job.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
And you know what, they're not wrong. They're not wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
So Tom Brady, he's still going to be barred from
Chiefs practices. But the rest of the crew, Kevin Burkhardt,
and they have two sideline Does anyone need two sideline
reporters for a game?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
What a waste. Anyway, they'll have two.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
They'll be there and they'll attend the practices very important,
all right, So let us discuss the question. The NFL
relaxing rules for Tom Brady in terms of production meeting
to broadcast the Super Bowl is blank.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
So I've got cosplay, vegan and any.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
And we'll combine all of those things together and.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
We are going to make up Baba ganoosh. We're gonna
make the baba ganoosh is what we're going to do.
Enjoy the baba gaosh.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
So to lead off here, to kick off.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
The NFL, the NFL relaxing rules for Tom Brady to
broadcast the Super Bowl is blank.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
My word is humdrum. I'm going with the word. Humdrum
is my word.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
And the reason I'm going humdrum is it doesn't really
change much of anything Tom Brady, watching him broadcast games,
he's very rough around the ages. It is, as Howard
Cosell said back in his day, the Jockocracy on display.
He needs a lot of work. He's an amateur as
(06:44):
a broadcaster, and you could tell that this is more
of a hobby than anything else.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
And when I listen to Brady talk on a broadcast.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
It sounds to me like a guy that never really
wanted to do what he he's doing that some TV
executive said, hey, Tom, how would you like the broadcast?
Speaker 6 (07:06):
Games?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Will give you three hundred and seventy five million, And
Brady paused.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
For a second and said, where do I sign? How much?
How often do you want me to sign? I'm there
and boom?
Speaker 4 (07:22):
You know.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
And but when Brady's doing a game, and maybe it's
just me and listen, it's my opinion, he looks like
he's doing cosplay, like he's trying to act like he
thinks an NFL commentator is supposed to sound. So you're
getting the same quality that you could have gotten for
a guy making thirty seven dollars a game.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
But Brady's, you know, making.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Way more than that, right, and is like he's trying
to act the part.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Cliches, platitudes. There's a lot of like a diet of
wow and oh no. And he likes to word juice.
Uses the word juice a lot.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
The x's and o's, it's not the x's and o's,
it's the Jimmy's and Joe's. And that's playoff football and
all that you can essentially just have AI readoff sports
cliche dot com and you could save yourself three hundred
and seventy five million dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
What do I know, I just do the overnight show,
all right.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Furthermore so, I thought this was interesting. We talked about
this a little bit last week. Interest in the NFL's
all star festivities at the Pro Bowl.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Don't exist.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
They continue to go lower and lower and lower. Now,
this year's Pro Bowl, or they call it the Pro
Bowl Games that's the official name by the NFL, averaged
just four point seven million viewers. That is all across ABC, ESPN,
Disney XD.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
I don't even know what that is. That is the
lowest audience we.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Are told ever for the Pro Bowl. There have never
been fewer people watching the Pro Bowl than this year.
That is an eighteen percent decline year to year. That
is nearly a thirty percent decline Pro Bowl audience from
two years ago, the first year they went with this
(09:21):
new Fugaysey format. So the Pro Bowl now has hit
record lows year after year after year for TV viewership.
What is the lesson to the NFL. The lesson to
the NFL is listen to the customers. You're not taking
(09:43):
the bait. The great unwashed, they don't want flag football
and the NFL, and I understand.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Why they did this because there was an insurrection by the.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Players.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
The players essentially they quit, and the NFL fancies itself
as a world class butcher shop serving the finest cuts
of meat. And when it comes to the Pro Bowl games,
they are selling vegan ribbi. They're selling vegan ribbi and
(10:19):
claiming it's fresh from the cow. You've lost thirty percent
of your audience in three years. That does not whisper Okay,
that screams. Your product blows. Your product flows. As long
as TV pays for it, this will continue. However, it
is an embarrassment. It is a blight on the NFL spreadsheet.
(10:42):
In the NFL, they were talking Roger Gellis, Oh, we're
thinking about starting a flag football league.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Nobody wants that. Roger, nobody wants a flag football league.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Okay, And in general, all across sports, the amount of
money that we pay.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Our athletes to worship them.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
These guys are so entitled that it's unnecessary for them.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
To try to entertain at an All Star game.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
The reason we had All Star games was to showcase
the top talent to get people excited to watch the sport.
The people that played in the All Star Games took
the All Star Game seriously. It mattered, It meant something,
It was important. It was a badge of honor. The
entitled athlete of today think that if they're expected to
(11:37):
play hard. If you're one of those people, you're a boomer.
You are a boomer.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
What is wrong with you? I could get hurt. I
could get hurt. Do you want me to get hurt?
What's wrong with your? Last night?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
So, staying with the theme of declining ratings the National
Hockey League, we have not talked much hockey since the
company whacked my friend Eddie, but the NHL viewership struggling, bad, bad, bad,
bad bad continues to stink here in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Now, how bad is it?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
How bad is the NHL TV audience? Well, a recent
game between the San Jose Sharks and the Seattle Kraken
averaged averaged just one hundred and.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Seventy five thousand viewers. That's it on ESPN. It was the.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Least watched NHL game all season. It was the lowest
viewed program on that fledgling cable channel for the entire day. So,
and it's not the only one. There have been multiple
broadcasts that have been at that number. But I just
brought this up because it happened recently. So a recent
(12:51):
national broadcast of the NHL drew less than two hundred
thousand viewers.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
How should the Hockey p will handle this? So?
Speaker 2 (13:03):
May we recommend unsolicited overnight advice? May we recommend an
A and E style TV show intervention? You need to
help the people at the NHL recognize you have fallen
and you can't get up. You've got a problem, and
(13:24):
you've got to take steps forward to get help because.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Your marketing people blow. You need better branding.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
You're not resonating with the men, women and children that
are out there now one of the amazing things. And
I got friends of mine that enjoy hockey, and they
think I'm nuts for not talking a lot of hockey
on this.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
We're on in.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Edmonton and Otto and Toronto and Montreal and all these places, and.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
They're great hockey towns.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
And I used to cover hockey when I got into radio,
was a radio stringer, and I spent a lot of
nights covering hockey.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I've been there and I enjoy watching.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
However, the hockey people, you say, well it's not popular,
they take that as a badge of honor, rather than
saying what can we do to get people to enjoy
our sport that we love. It's like, well, who cares
of other people like it? We like it, that's all
that matters. I don't care about the people like it,
which is always seen backwards to me. The NHL was
out drawn by its lead in Iowa State and Kansas State,
(14:28):
not men's basketball, women's college basketball, women but almost Actually
it was more than two to one, more than two
to one Iowa State, Kansas State women's college basketball, more
than two to one viewership side Clones and Wildcats. If
(14:50):
you're hockey, that is Holy Toledo Territory. How embarrassing is that?
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Blasphemy?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And again I get messages from people that like the
sh and they're like, hey, I listen all the time,
and you know you talk about all these other sports
and you don't really mention the sport I love hockey.
And my response is always, well, I do broadcasting. I
don't do narrow casting. And the reason I'm bringing this
story up I find it fascinating that one of the
major sports leagues in the industrial complex of sport in
(15:19):
North America could be this backwards. Do better and be better.
When your viewership is on par with the viewership of
my weekend half hour TV show, you're doing something wrong.
You're a major organization, big time. And when a little
(15:44):
half hour dopey show picking NFL games against a penny
can get similar or better ratings, what is wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Have you lost your bloody mind? My god? It is
the Ben mal Show.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
If you'd like to comment on any of that, you
are more than welcome to be part of the program

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Ben Malor if you would like to be part. So,
the NBA trade deadline.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Is right around the band, right around the band, and
one NBA player has made a rather shocking comparison to
the trade deadline and wait till you're hear with this
cat who's been traded many times said about what the
NBA trade deadline is all about. Also, we are just
(16:48):
a few days away from the start of spring training
and is an all star headed to Finway Park, big
rumor on the Baseball Gossip Mill.

Overnight crew here and you reminder coming up later this
hour password the word Game of the Stars. But now
(18:06):
back to bloviating Ben Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, blah
blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
As we are rolling on through the overnight, We'll get
back to the.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Calls here in a moment, because it is a caller
driven show. I think I think that's the case. I
did want to mention this story before we get back
to it. The NBA trade deadline, which is good for
those of us to do talk radio and don't want
to spend endless time talking about the lead up to
the super Bowl because it's a little much. So in
(18:41):
the lead up to the trade deadline, we've seen some
mega MEGAMEGA trades, some massive trades. Right they've got a
lot of attention. We've talked about this Luca trade. It's
wild and crazy and all that, but one player in
particular has a big problem with the trade deadline. We're
(19:02):
talking about Dennis Shrewder. Now you might not know who
that is if you're not a basketball hardo, because he's
a rotation guy. But he's not a star. He's on
a roster, he plays a fair amount. He played for
the Lakers, he played for the Atlanta Hawks. He's bounced around,
and he was actually traded earlier this year to the
(19:25):
Golden State Warriors. So he's playing on the Warriors right now.
He's number seventy one. I believe it is.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
In your program, but number one in your heart.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
So I bring this up because in the shock and
awe of Luke Donzik being traded to the to the Lakers,
Dennis had an epiphany. Dennis Shrewder, he said, all Stars,
we brought money to them. NBA Finals. He says, he's
(19:54):
talking about Luke. He said he got traded. He got
the five fing NBA first teams, all all Stars. He
brought money to them, meaning the Mavericks NBA Finals last year,
one hundred and seventeen million dollars. He can sign now
because he can't sign for that extra hundred and seventeen
million because he got traded. And that's no state income tax.
(20:16):
As Shrewder complains about the taxation by the People's Republic
of California compared to Texas, he says, from now on,
I see it even more crazier than it was, because
to trade somebody like that, nobody's safe.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Shrewder said, I'm working up to the crescendo.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Not even Steph Curry say probably when I see that.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
It's an f up business. Now here we go, Here
we go, he said.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Dennis Shrewder, veteran NBA player, said it's like modern slavery.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Ding ding ding ding ding ding, ding, ding, ding ding
ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding Ning
Ning ning Ning Yes.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
NBA player Dennis Shruder said, it's like modern slavery. It's
modern slavery. At the end of the day, everybody can
decide where you're going, even if.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
You have a contract.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah, of course we make a lot of money and
we can feed our families. But at the end of
the day, if they say you're not coming to work tomorrow,
you're going over there, they can decide that they gotta.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Change that a little bit.
Speaker 6 (21:30):
Now, that.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Is a hot take. That's a hot dake. That's a
dumb take, but that's a hot take. That is The
amount of meltdowns that we have seen from high paid
athletes is outstanding.
Speaker 7 (21:47):
Uh, it is.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I think the trade's ridiculous like most other people, but
the reaction has been priceless. I mean, these are some
of the biggest names in the sport and they are
losing their mind. They are absolutely beside themselves because of
this transaction, and that part of the story I love.
(22:14):
I absolutely love it. They're freaking out, they're losing their minds,
and I find that part of it very entertaining. So
modern slave, well, I guess that's an improvement on old slavery, right,
modern slavery. That's an upgrade, so you'll get paid a
lot of money. Does any of these guys, I know
(22:35):
they live in their own little bubble when they're in
the NBA, but do they understand like it happens in
other professions. You could be working at a factory in
Ohio and the company decides to move the factory somewhere
else and they say, well, we're either going to lay
off or you have to move your family and we'll
pay a few bucks, but you've got to move your
family and are you willing to do that? And most
(22:56):
people are not willing to do that. They can't afford
to do that, even with the money company you'll send.
I know, in my business, at any moment, they could
come in here and tap me on the shoulder and
say that's it, game over, you're done. And we've all
experienced that, unfortunately with one of our friends on this show.
But that's the real world. I mean, that's kind of
how it fi. Why should it be any different. It
(23:20):
is different in the NBA, and those guys are paid
very well, and so I think we'd all make that
that deal. And when you're traded that they have people
that come in. I've talked to a number of people
over the years about this, and they, well, it sucks.
It's a little different than if you get a job transfer.
They have people that will take care of everything. They'll
(23:41):
find you a place to live, they'll they'll find your
car when you move to the new team. They'll take
care of your old stuff. They have liaison liaisons that
will take care of all.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That crap for it.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
And yeah, so but the modern modern slavery Dennis Dennis Shrute,
who has earned about ninety million dollars, And I would
bet if you did a man on the street, do
you know who this is? Nobody knows who? I mean,
(24:16):
age of zero in that department, nobody knows. No body knows.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Just get back to the calls. It is a call
in show. And who do we have any meanie? Miney Moore.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Oh, by the way, late Night drug tester wrote and
he says television executives.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Don't care anymore.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
He said, regarding the announcers for the Super Bowl, they
are just thankful they no longer have to compete with
Fox Sports radios coverage hosted by Ben Maller and Tom Looney.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Yeah, we did that for years. Yeah, We did that
for a long time. We had fun. We were always
shocked working Super Bowl, how many people were not watching.
And we're listening to.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Us out the alien Opiner Wrights and says, I am
a hockey fan. I've never streamed a hockey game. I
have streamed many episodes of Benny Versus the Penny. Do
not sell yourself short?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
All right, very good, We'll not thank you, thank you Alf.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Without Alf and the late mass whole mickey, we would
not have nearly the amount of viewers that we have had.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
And there's a few other people, a few other people
for that TV show, So we do thank.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
You for that.

Man hey, it's not necessary for three times three times?
Just like calm down three times, like you say, if
you say, it's not necessary. So you're gonna watch the
OJ sents a trial back to back twice, you know,
I mean, I love that guy. I really do love
that guy. He calls you you plamem on there, He's
ignores you to watch O. J.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Simpson's trial.
Speaker 9 (27:55):
I don't know how long the trial was. It could
not have been years, though, because he's been watching that
for years. I want tofte papers. I want to take
Cortyv's listings, but I don't want to.
Speaker 4 (28:03):
I don't. It's better being mysterious. It's way better. It's
way better.
Speaker 9 (28:07):
At two thirty five. That guy the other night called
you Jim. He called you, called you Jim.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
He stared Jim. You know what you know what I mean?
Speaker 9 (28:14):
He needs look at Dodgers, needs to get in a gym.
You know why, ay I ay is not artificial intelligence.
It's Alan Averson. He needs to get rid of Alan
iverson view of practice because there are a couple of
suicides would be not good in the family, but would
be good and call your vast. Really, he looks like
he's gonna do the Steve Austin, you know, a great
game with Lebron, but instead of chalk, he's gonna double
fist of beer and let it run down his face.
(28:35):
And then if Michael family's not around, that's probably why
glad he got traded.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
Where do you think? What do you think?
Speaker 9 (28:39):
Where are your thoughts you have?
Speaker 1 (28:41):
I'm overwhelmed by the volume of takes.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
You got helmet man oj in there, I got the beer,
you got the lebron celebration.
Speaker 9 (28:50):
You think of Hollywood set, and I just started like
takes out of it, and I just started shouting out
things randomly, I'd get arrested or if it was creative,
like in my peak. Dude, let's talk about you want
to get paid for things that you don't have to
do anymore. Much like the Eagles, he's off the manager
released the greatest hits and they got pissed off. If
you could have bested Ben Moule show featuring the Grace
the Jet Who Fled out there, You're welcome, you're working
(29:11):
with the idea. You're welcome for your your nest egg,
You're working for all that.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
That's the hit to riches, just Jed who Fled, random
phone calls. Even before you became Jed who Fled, you
got the nickname for not showing up to the octagon.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
You had a different name.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
You were Shaw Shank Jed before that, right, we called
the shaw Shank Jed I think that was your name,

Speaker 4 (30:09):
Jerome. I'm going through a few financial difficulties right now,
but I persevere, you know, But not like Dennis Schroter
owns a shooter who turned down eighty four million dollars
a couple of years ago. I'm still trying to get
over that man. That's before taxes and he's going to
talk about slavery. He doesn't know who he's rearing from
(30:30):
a hole in the ground. And by the way, he's
from Germany. He represents German, the German basketball team.
Speaker 10 (30:36):
I bet he can't.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
Speak a look at German. I bet he can't.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
I bet you, I bet you. I bet you he
speaks German. I bet he does Germany.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I would hope he speaks Germany. Lived in Germany, he
grew up in Germany, I believe.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
Okay, well that's too debatable. But by the way, what
happened to all those cord hands that I've been listening
to the two for months? Tell me the lines are
going to the super Bowl. The Lives are going to
win the super Bowl. The lines are going to What
happened to those corn heads? Mister Jim Mallard. By the way,
let's make some barb barbao?
Speaker 1 (31:11):
You want to make the barbacano. I didn't know chicken trauma, guy,

Speaker 4 (31:26):
Like spicy. I can't spicy stuff anymore. You know, I'm
getting up there. And by the way, you know you
probably your premonation came true.
Speaker 10 (31:36):
You would talk about Luke for the longest time.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
And now you get to talk about him all the time.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You mentioned it.
Speaker 10 (31:45):
He's your favorite player because you're constantly mentioning him, And
don't tell me your dog because I listen to your
show and you're always talking about Luca, talking about we talk.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
About everybody that's that's in the in the headlines. He's
in the head line.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
What do you want me to do?
Speaker 2 (32:01):
He's in the headlines all the time. You had terrible
body language. You look very uncomfortable.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Look, they're talking about Wake. Nobody complain about shot butterball
Butter being Wake when he went as much as three
fifty when he was mapping the Lakers won titles and
Kobe and he would get into arguments about shots, conditioners,
and they're gonna tell about doctors.
Speaker 6 (32:22):
Is wake man?
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Give me a break. That guy is sad.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Well, the comp the comp is uh no Jerome. It's
like Zion Williamson gets ripped all the time for.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Being fast fad.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Wait a minute, though, wait a minute. He's probably around
the same way as Luca. But Zion doesn't play enough
like normally Luca plays like Zion's always out.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
That's the difference.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Well, look, Zion doesn't play back to back games because
the Pelicans tree. You will not play it back to
back games. That's not in your you gotta put that
in your contract.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Well, I need to tell I need to tell Fox
I should not do back to back show because this
is way too much talking and my voice is butchered.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
Yeah, one day off in between shows for you.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Hey. You know Tom the short has comment it's just
typical of modern day society, but people constantly flattered himself.
He compares playing an ambia from Mason dollars to slavery.
Someone give that young man a clue because he doesn't
have one.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I know.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
All right, Well, thank you, drem call more off and
hopefully you get some money. You'll win the lottery or
something like that. You'll be filthy rich. It is the
Bennett Maler Show. Angry Bill is next. Hello, Angry Bill.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
How's everybody doing? Had been this thing with Tom Brady.
You know, it's kind of ridiculous for you knocking this
guy when he first started. Okay, he was a little
stiff and he was getting used to what is going on.
But he's such an intelligent, bright man. He's insightful. Now
when he took on the games, he's informative, and and
(34:00):
you know your problem with him is called thirty million dollars. Okay,
so just shut up about Tom Brady, will you? The
guy's fantastic.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Anything else you want to say, then I think he
should be fired and Caitlin Clark should call the game.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
Well, now we might be talking a different story, Okay.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Okay, So now that's okay. So now that's all right.
Now we have common ground.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
I'm prejudiced to Caitlyn Clark. I'm prejudiced.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I'm aware of your prejudice, and.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
You're prejudiced to Tom Brady. Turned down the rape, turned
down the volume. Don't listen all like. You gotta be
kidding me. If you were flapping your gums, people have
to go to the bathroom every ten minutes because they'd
be puking in their pants.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Okay, how would you puke in your pant wouldn't you
poop your paints? I don't know you puke in your
paints the way you probably pooped the pants. Way comes
if it comes out of your tooks, I think it's
I think it's drek.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
I don't think it's puke. I think puke comes out
of your mouth.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
And one thing I want to inform everybody is absolutely fantastic.
He's a Jersey he's a Jersey guy. That's why my
cheer when I turned out he's a Jersey guy. But
he's insightful intelligence too, these guys.
Speaker 1 (35:12):

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number four, Our four of the original Recipe podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:09):
Happy Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
It's the fifth day of February, and the NFL has
decided to relax rules for Tom Brady to broadcast the
Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
That is blank so different Brady rules. Those are gone.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
The Pro Bowl hit record lows for TV viewership. What's
the lesson to the NFL? The Pro Bowl games? They
had a game show, they played tic tac toe, all that,
and we'll also discuss a recent national broadcast of the
NHL drew less than two hundred thousand dollars. They were
(00:45):
beaten by a women's college basketball game. How should the
hockey people handle that embarrassment. We'll get to all of
those stories and much more. Right now, give it up
for our number four and have a wonderful Wednesday.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Here it is. It is all about the Brady brunch er, buncher, cruncher.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
Yeah, well, gome in the beginning of another hour of
the Benmahlor Show.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
We are in the air everywhere as we wallow in
the mire and avoid the Golden Sombrero coast the coast, border,
the border and beyond on the vast and articulately powerful
microphones of FSR amminating.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Live from the seat as we are doing some back
seat driving. We are broadcasting live from the Tyraq dot
com studios. Tyraqt dot com will help you get there
in unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection
and over ten thousand recommended in starllars tire rack dot
(02:05):
com The Way Tire Buying Show.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
B.
Speaker 1 (02:11):
I know our friend really woke guy, the really Woke
guy on X big fan of the number ten thousand.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
So our lead this hour is from the broadcast booth
as we get closer to Super Bowl fifty nine and
how many people watch the Super Bowl with the sound on?
And how many people watch the Super Bowl with the
sound off. Now I'm a bit of a loser when
it comes to the Super Bowl. I normally try to
(02:39):
watch by myself. I've been to parties over the years,
and I always have to work after the Super Bowl,
like immediately after the game, within a couple hours after
come do the show. So I feel like I need
laser light focus. So I don't like normally being at
parties because I don't get to really watch the game
because I'm I'm dragged into social awkward social situations, and
(03:00):
I'm a bit of an introvert. So I normally will
sit in a moment of zen watching the game and
taking copious amounts of notes on my little note thing
on my phone, and I'm watching the game, and I
normally have the sound on, even though most of the
broadcasters annoy me, I still have the sound on. So
as we prepare for this Sunday, the game is on Fox,
(03:24):
so you better watch Super Bowl fifty nine. One change
is coming. The Brady Rules, the Brady Rules. So Tom
Brady he's going to to his first Super Bowl broadcast.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
He's played in a bunch of these games, but his.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
First broadcast with Fox Sports. And he's a of course
a Raider bit owner, bit owner in the Raiders. But
it turns out that the Brady rules have been silenced.
If you didn't hear about this, maybe not. Brady will
now be allowed to take part in production meetings with
Tansa City, the rival of the Raiders up to the
(04:00):
game Clark Hunt, the man that was born and won
the genetic lottery Clark Hunt, the chiefs owner, has informed
the media that the Brady rules have been put offside
for this game. And normally Brady is not allowed, not
(04:20):
allowed to hang out at another team facility, cannot criticize officials,
cannot watch practice, and cannot attend production meetings, and so
that's it. Can't do it in person or virtually. Now,
those production meetings are when guys like Jim Nance and
Joe Back and Troy Aikman Tony Romo play grab ass
(04:45):
with the coaches and the star players, And the coaches
and the star players tell them their entire game plan,
They tell them what to look for, They pretty much
give them every nugget of information. Now, the reason that
coaches and star players do that is beca because they
know these jobs are easy in media and so they
want to get one. So they figure by sucking up
(05:05):
to a guy like Jim Nance er Joe Buck, they'll
end up getting a broadcasting job.
Speaker 1 (05:11):
And you know what, they're not wrong. They're not wrong.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
So Tom Brady, he's still going to be barred from
Chiefs practices. But the rest of the crew, Kevin Burkhardt,
and they have two sideline Does anyone need two sideline
reporters for a game?
Speaker 1 (05:28):
What a waste. Anyway, they'll have two.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
They'll be there and they'll attend the practices very important,
all right, So let us discuss the question. The NFL
relaxing rules for Tom Brady in terms of production meeting
to broadcast the Super Bowl is blank.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
So I've got cosplay, vegan and any.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
And we'll combine all of those things together and.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
We are going to make up Baba ganoosh. We're gonna
make the baba ganoosh is what we're going to do.
Enjoy the baba gaosh.
Speaker 5 (06:06):
All right.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
So to lead off here, to kick off.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
The NFL, the NFL relaxing rules for Tom Brady to
broadcast the Super Bowl is blank.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
My word is humdrum. I'm going with the word. Humdrum
is my word.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
And the reason I'm going humdrum is it doesn't really
change much of anything Tom Brady, watching him broadcast games,
he's very rough around the ages. It is, as Howard
Cosell said back in his day, the Jockocracy on display.
He needs a lot of work. He's an amateur as
(06:44):
a broadcaster, and you could tell that this is more
of a hobby than anything else.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
And when I listen to Brady talk on a broadcast.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
It sounds to me like a guy that never really
wanted to do what he he's doing that some TV
executive said, hey, Tom, how would you like the broadcast?
Speaker 6 (07:06):
Games?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Will give you three hundred and seventy five million, And
Brady paused.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
For a second and said, where do I sign? How much?
How often do you want me to sign? I'm there
and boom?
Speaker 4 (07:22):
You know.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
And but when Brady's doing a game, and maybe it's
just me and listen, it's my opinion, he looks like
he's doing cosplay, like he's trying to act like he
thinks an NFL commentator is supposed to sound. So you're
getting the same quality that you could have gotten for
a guy making thirty seven dollars a game.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
But Brady's, you know, making.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
Way more than that, right, and is like he's trying
to act the part.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Cliches, platitudes. There's a lot of like a diet of
wow and oh no. And he likes to word juice.
Uses the word juice a lot.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
The x's and o's, it's not the x's and o's,
it's the Jimmy's and Joe's. And that's playoff football and
all that you can essentially just have AI readoff sports
cliche dot com and you could save yourself three hundred
and seventy five million dollars.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
What do I know, I just do the overnight show,
all right.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Furthermore so, I thought this was interesting. We talked about
this a little bit last week. Interest in the NFL's
all star festivities at the Pro Bowl.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Don't exist.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
They continue to go lower and lower and lower. Now,
this year's Pro Bowl, or they call it the Pro
Bowl Games that's the official name by the NFL, averaged
just four point seven million viewers. That is all across ABC, ESPN,
Disney XD.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
I don't even know what that is. That is the
lowest audience we.
Speaker 2 (08:59):
Are told ever for the Pro Bowl. There have never
been fewer people watching the Pro Bowl than this year.
That is an eighteen percent decline year to year. That
is nearly a thirty percent decline Pro Bowl audience from
two years ago, the first year they went with this
(09:21):
new Fugaysey format. So the Pro Bowl now has hit
record lows year after year after year for TV viewership.
What is the lesson to the NFL. The lesson to
the NFL is listen to the customers. You're not taking
(09:43):
the bait. The great unwashed, they don't want flag football
and the NFL, and I understand.
Speaker 1 (09:51):
Why they did this because there was an insurrection by the.
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Players.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
The players essentially they quit, and the NFL fancies itself
as a world class butcher shop serving the finest cuts
of meat. And when it comes to the Pro Bowl games,
they are selling vegan ribbi. They're selling vegan ribbi and
(10:19):
claiming it's fresh from the cow. You've lost thirty percent
of your audience in three years. That does not whisper Okay,
that screams. Your product blows. Your product flows. As long
as TV pays for it, this will continue. However, it
is an embarrassment. It is a blight on the NFL spreadsheet.
(10:42):
In the NFL, they were talking Roger Gellis, Oh, we're
thinking about starting a flag football league.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Nobody wants that. Roger, nobody wants a flag football league.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Okay, And in general, all across sports, the amount of
money that we pay.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Our athletes to worship them.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
These guys are so entitled that it's unnecessary for them.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
To try to entertain at an All Star game.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
The reason we had All Star games was to showcase
the top talent to get people excited to watch the sport.
The people that played in the All Star Games took
the All Star Game seriously. It mattered, It meant something,
It was important. It was a badge of honor. The
entitled athlete of today think that if they're expected to
(11:37):
play hard. If you're one of those people, you're a boomer.
You are a boomer.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
What is wrong with you? I could get hurt. I
could get hurt. Do you want me to get hurt?
What's wrong with your? Last night?
Speaker 2 (11:51):
So, staying with the theme of declining ratings the National
Hockey League, we have not talked much hockey since the
company whacked my friend Eddie, but the NHL viewership struggling, bad, bad, bad,
bad bad continues to stink here in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 6 (12:11):
Now, how bad is it?
Speaker 2 (12:13):
How bad is the NHL TV audience? Well, a recent
game between the San Jose Sharks and the Seattle Kraken
averaged averaged just one hundred and.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Seventy five thousand viewers. That's it on ESPN. It was the.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
Least watched NHL game all season. It was the lowest
viewed program on that fledgling cable channel for the entire day. So,
and it's not the only one. There have been multiple
broadcasts that have been at that number. But I just
brought this up because it happened recently. So a recent
(12:51):
national broadcast of the NHL drew less than two hundred
thousand viewers.
Speaker 1 (12:58):
How should the Hockey p will handle this? So?
Speaker 2 (13:03):
May we recommend unsolicited overnight advice? May we recommend an
A and E style TV show intervention? You need to
help the people at the NHL recognize you have fallen
and you can't get up. You've got a problem, and
(13:24):
you've got to take steps forward to get help because.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Your marketing people blow. You need better branding.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
You're not resonating with the men, women and children that
are out there now one of the amazing things. And
I got friends of mine that enjoy hockey, and they
think I'm nuts for not talking a lot of hockey
on this.
Speaker 6 (13:46):
We're on in.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Edmonton and Otto and Toronto and Montreal and all these places, and.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
They're great hockey towns.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
And I used to cover hockey when I got into radio,
was a radio stringer, and I spent a lot of
nights covering hockey.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
I've been there and I enjoy watching.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
However, the hockey people, you say, well it's not popular,
they take that as a badge of honor, rather than
saying what can we do to get people to enjoy
our sport that we love. It's like, well, who cares
of other people like it? We like it, that's all
that matters. I don't care about the people like it,
which is always seen backwards to me. The NHL was
out drawn by its lead in Iowa State and Kansas State,
(14:28):
not men's basketball, women's college basketball, women but almost Actually
it was more than two to one, more than two
to one Iowa State, Kansas State women's college basketball, more
than two to one viewership side Clones and Wildcats. If
(14:50):
you're hockey, that is Holy Toledo Territory. How embarrassing is that?
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Blasphemy?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
And again I get messages from people that like the
sh and they're like, hey, I listen all the time,
and you know you talk about all these other sports
and you don't really mention the sport I love hockey.
And my response is always, well, I do broadcasting. I
don't do narrow casting. And the reason I'm bringing this
story up I find it fascinating that one of the
major sports leagues in the industrial complex of sport in
(15:19):
North America could be this backwards. Do better and be better.
When your viewership is on par with the viewership of
my weekend half hour TV show, you're doing something wrong.
You're a major organization, big time. And when a little
(15:44):
half hour dopey show picking NFL games against a penny
can get similar or better ratings, what is wrong with you?
Speaker 1 (15:53):
Have you lost your bloody mind? My god? It is
the Ben mal Show.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
If you'd like to comment on any of that, you
are more than welcome to be part of the program
at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. That's eight
seven seven nine nine six six three sixty nine. Also
on x at Ben malor that's at.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
Ben Malor if you would like to be part. So,
the NBA trade deadline.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
Is right around the band, right around the band, and
one NBA player has made a rather shocking comparison to
the trade deadline and wait till you're hear with this
cat who's been traded many times said about what the
NBA trade deadline is all about. Also, we are just
(16:48):
a few days away from the start of spring training
and is an all star headed to Finway Park, big
rumor on the Baseball Gossip Mill.
Speaker 1 (16:58):

and we will do it.

Overnight crew here and you reminder coming up later this
hour password the word Game of the Stars. But now
(18:06):
back to bloviating Ben Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, blah
blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
As we are rolling on through the overnight, We'll get
back to the.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
Calls here in a moment, because it is a caller
driven show. I think I think that's the case. I
did want to mention this story before we get back
to it. The NBA trade deadline, which is good for
those of us to do talk radio and don't want
to spend endless time talking about the lead up to
the super Bowl because it's a little much. So in
(18:41):
the lead up to the trade deadline, we've seen some
mega MEGAMEGA trades, some massive trades. Right they've got a
lot of attention. We've talked about this Luca trade. It's
wild and crazy and all that, but one player in
particular has a big problem with the trade deadline. We're
(19:02):
talking about Dennis Shrewder. Now you might not know who
that is if you're not a basketball hardo, because he's
a rotation guy. But he's not a star. He's on
a roster, he plays a fair amount. He played for
the Lakers, he played for the Atlanta Hawks. He's bounced around,
and he was actually traded earlier this year to the
(19:25):
Golden State Warriors. So he's playing on the Warriors right now.
He's number seventy one. I believe it is.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
In your program, but number one in your heart.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
So I bring this up because in the shock and
awe of Luke Donzik being traded to the to the Lakers,
Dennis had an epiphany. Dennis Shrewder, he said, all Stars,
we brought money to them. NBA Finals. He says, he's
(19:54):
talking about Luke. He said he got traded. He got
the five fing NBA first teams, all all Stars. He
brought money to them, meaning the Mavericks NBA Finals last year,
one hundred and seventeen million dollars. He can sign now
because he can't sign for that extra hundred and seventeen
million because he got traded. And that's no state income tax.
(20:16):
As Shrewder complains about the taxation by the People's Republic
of California compared to Texas, he says, from now on,
I see it even more crazier than it was, because
to trade somebody like that, nobody's safe.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Shrewder said, I'm working up to the crescendo.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Not even Steph Curry say probably when I see that.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
It's an f up business. Now here we go, Here
we go, he said.
Speaker 2 (20:46):
Dennis Shrewder, veteran NBA player, said it's like modern slavery.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
Ding ding ding ding ding ding, ding, ding, ding ding
ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding Ning
Ning ning Ning Yes.
Speaker 2 (21:00):
NBA player Dennis Shruder said, it's like modern slavery. It's
modern slavery. At the end of the day, everybody can
decide where you're going, even if.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
You have a contract.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
Yeah, of course we make a lot of money and
we can feed our families. But at the end of
the day, if they say you're not coming to work tomorrow,
you're going over there, they can decide that they gotta.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
Change that a little bit.
Speaker 6 (21:30):
Now, that.
Speaker 2 (21:33):
Is a hot take. That's a hot dake. That's a
dumb take, but that's a hot take. That is The
amount of meltdowns that we have seen from high paid
athletes is outstanding.
Speaker 7 (21:47):
Uh, it is.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
I think the trade's ridiculous like most other people, but
the reaction has been priceless. I mean, these are some
of the biggest names in the sport and they are
losing their mind. They are absolutely beside themselves because of
this transaction, and that part of the story I love.
(22:14):
I absolutely love it. They're freaking out, they're losing their minds,
and I find that part of it very entertaining. So
modern slave, well, I guess that's an improvement on old slavery, right,
modern slavery. That's an upgrade, so you'll get paid a
lot of money. Does any of these guys, I know
(22:35):
they live in their own little bubble when they're in
the NBA, but do they understand like it happens in
other professions. You could be working at a factory in
Ohio and the company decides to move the factory somewhere
else and they say, well, we're either going to lay
off or you have to move your family and we'll
pay a few bucks, but you've got to move your
family and are you willing to do that? And most
(22:56):
people are not willing to do that. They can't afford
to do that, even with the money company you'll send.
I know, in my business, at any moment, they could
come in here and tap me on the shoulder and
say that's it, game over, you're done. And we've all
experienced that, unfortunately with one of our friends on this show.
But that's the real world. I mean, that's kind of
how it fi. Why should it be any different. It
(23:20):
is different in the NBA, and those guys are paid
very well, and so I think we'd all make that
that deal. And when you're traded that they have people
that come in. I've talked to a number of people
over the years about this, and they, well, it sucks.
It's a little different than if you get a job transfer.
They have people that will take care of everything. They'll
(23:41):
find you a place to live, they'll they'll find your
car when you move to the new team. They'll take
care of your old stuff. They have liaison liaisons that
will take care of all.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
That crap for it.
Speaker 2 (23:54):
And yeah, so but the modern modern slavery Dennis Dennis Shrute,
who has earned about ninety million dollars, And I would
bet if you did a man on the street, do
you know who this is? Nobody knows who? I mean,
(24:16):
age of zero in that department, nobody knows. No body knows.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
Just get back to the calls. It is a call
in show. And who do we have any meanie? Miney Moore.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
Oh, by the way, late Night drug tester wrote and
he says television executives.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Don't care anymore.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
He said, regarding the announcers for the Super Bowl, they
are just thankful they no longer have to compete with
Fox Sports radios coverage hosted by Ben Maller and Tom Looney.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Yeah, we did that for years. Yeah, We did that
for a long time. We had fun. We were always
shocked working Super Bowl, how many people were not watching.
And we're listening to.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Us out the alien Opiner Wrights and says, I am
a hockey fan. I've never streamed a hockey game. I
have streamed many episodes of Benny Versus the Penny. Do
not sell yourself short?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
All right, very good, We'll not thank you, thank you Alf.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
Without Alf and the late mass whole mickey, we would
not have nearly the amount of viewers that we have had.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
And there's a few other people, a few other people
for that TV show, So we do thank.
Speaker 7 (25:24):
You for that.

It's Alan Averson. He needs to get rid of Alan
iverson view of practice because there are a couple of
suicides would be not good in the family, but would
be good and call your vast. Really, he looks like
he's gonna do the Steve Austin, you know, a great
game with Lebron, but instead of chalk, he's gonna double
fist of beer and let it run down his face.
(28:35):
And then if Michael family's not around, that's probably why
glad he got traded.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
Where do you think? What do you think?
Speaker 9 (28:39):
Where are your thoughts you have?

things randomly, I'd get arrested or if it was creative,
like in my peak. Dude, let's talk about you want
to get paid for things that you don't have to
do anymore. Much like the Eagles, he's off the manager

phone calls. Even before you became Jed who Fled, you
got the nickname for not showing up to the octagon.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
You had a different name.

but I persevere, you know, But not like Dennis Schroter
owns a shooter who turned down eighty four million dollars
a couple of years ago. I'm still trying to get
over that man. That's before taxes and he's going to
talk about slavery. He doesn't know who he's rearing from
(30:30):
a hole in the ground. And by the way, he's
from Germany. He represents German, the German basketball team.
Speaker 10 (30:36):
I bet he can't.
Speaker 4 (30:37):
Speak a look at German. I bet he can't.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
I bet you, I bet you. I bet you he
speaks German. I bet he does Germany.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
I would hope he speaks Germany. Lived in Germany, he
grew up in Germany, I believe.

getting up there. And by the way, you know you
probably your premonation came true.
Speaker 10 (31:36):
You would talk about Luke for the longest time.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
And now you get to talk about him all the time.
Speaker 1 (31:44):
You mentioned it.
Speaker 10 (31:45):
He's your favorite player because you're constantly mentioning him, And
don't tell me your dog because I listen to your
show and you're always talking about Luca, talking about we talk.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
About everybody that's that's in the in the headlines. He's
in the head line.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
What do you want me to do?
Speaker 2 (32:01):
He's in the headlines all the time. You had terrible
body language. You look very uncomfortable.
Speaker 4 (32:05):
Look, they're talking about Wake. Nobody complain about shot butterball
Butter being Wake when he went as much as three
fifty when he was mapping the Lakers won titles and
Kobe and he would get into arguments about shots, conditioners,
and they're gonna tell about doctors.
Speaker 6 (32:22):
Is wake man?
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Give me a break. That guy is sad.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
Well, the comp the comp is uh no Jerome. It's
like Zion Williamson gets ripped all the time for.
Speaker 4 (32:33):
Being fast fad.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Wait a minute, though, wait a minute. He's probably around
the same way as Luca. But Zion doesn't play enough
like normally Luca plays like Zion's always out.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
That's the difference.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Well, look, Zion doesn't play back to back games because
the Pelicans tree. You will not play it back to
back games. That's not in your you gotta put that
in your contract.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Well, I need to tell I need to tell Fox
I should not do back to back show because this
is way too much talking and my voice is butchered.
Speaker 1 (33:03):
Yeah, one day off in between shows for you.
Speaker 4 (33:06):
Hey. You know Tom the short has comment it's just
typical of modern day society, but people constantly flattered himself.
He compares playing an ambia from Mason dollars to slavery.
Someone give that young man a clue because he doesn't
have one.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
Yeah, it's ridiculous.
Speaker 4 (33:24):
I know.
Speaker 1 (33:25):
All right, Well, thank you, drem call more off and
hopefully you get some money. You'll win the lottery or
something like that. You'll be filthy rich. It is the
Bennett Maler Show. Angry Bill is next. Hello, Angry Bill.
Speaker 4 (33:38):
How's everybody doing? Had been this thing with Tom Brady.
You know, it's kind of ridiculous for you knocking this
guy when he first started. Okay, he was a little
stiff and he was getting used to what is going on.
But he's such an intelligent, bright man. He's insightful. Now
when he took on the games, he's informative, and and
(34:00):
you know your problem with him is called thirty million dollars. Okay,
so just shut up about Tom Brady, will you? The
guy's fantastic.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Anything else you want to say, then I think he
should be fired and Caitlin Clark should call the game.
Speaker 4 (34:14):
Well, now we might be talking a different story, Okay.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
Okay, So now that's okay. So now that's all right.
Now we have common ground.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
I'm prejudiced to Caitlyn Clark. I'm prejudiced.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
I'm aware of your prejudice, and.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
You're prejudiced to Tom Brady. Turned down the rape, turned
down the volume. Don't listen all like. You gotta be
kidding me. If you were flapping your gums, people have
to go to the bathroom every ten minutes because they'd
be puking in their pants.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Okay, how would you puke in your pant wouldn't you
poop your paints? I don't know you puke in your
paints the way you probably pooped the pants. Way comes
if it comes out of your tooks, I think it's
I think it's drek.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
I don't think it's puke. I think puke comes out
of your mouth.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
And one thing I want to inform everybody is absolutely fantastic.
He's a Jersey he's a Jersey guy. That's why my
cheer when I turned out he's a Jersey guy. But
he's insightful intelligence too, these guys.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Great job, great, love you love everybody. Everyone's great. It
is so good, amazing, all right, thank you going, all right?

Intentionally Disturbing
Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
