Kutbooms.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He
treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to Clearinghouse of
hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour
(00:23):
with Ben Maller starts right now.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben
Maller and Danny G. Radio A Happy Saturday. It is
the twenty third day of August as I hang out
here at a very early morning hour in Lost Wages, Nevada,
and I have made some donations here to the local economy,
(00:51):
which I guess is struggling everywhere I read on social media.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
It's struggling in.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Danny G Radio holding down the ford in LaVita Loca
in southern California. And we are reunited here on a
very important day which we will get into in a minute. Danny,
We've got Vegas Baby Donald derangement syndrome, but not what
you think and Benny and the Boys. Now that has
(01:17):
the makings of a very mediocre podcast. Danny but it'll
be hopell me better than mediocre. We're hoping better than
mediocre on the fifth hour today.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
By the way, we are now less than two weeks
away from the NFL season.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah, college football beginning right. It was from college football.
It's like a soft launch for college.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Football week zero. Right.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I was told like I on the Overnight show. I say, well,
it's the zero hour, and then I said, well, no,
that's it's our one. I said, well, no to me,
it's the zero hour, and then Lorena would argue with me.
I said, one, it's zero and she said, no, it's
our one. It's not the zero hour. We got into that.
But today's today, Danny. Today is today. It is launch day.
It is blast off. We're on I'm the launching pad
(02:01):
right now. This has become we we wanted to be
an annual pilgrimage. We think it's going to become that.
This is year number two. The faithful, the curious, and
the What the hell else am I going to do?
I'm a middle aged person. It's a Saturday in Vegas.
I got nothing else to do. That crowd will all
descend upon the Stakeout Bar and Grill over near UNLV
(02:27):
here in the desert this afternoon. It is the twenty
twenty five Vegas Malor Meet and Greet, and it is
on like a Donkey Kong video game, and I'm very
excited about that. People have been asking questions, Danny. We've
you've been to some of these in the past. I've
done a lot of them, and we promoted it a
(02:47):
lot on the Overnight Show, and people have been asking
questions like, why are you doing this, Why you're not
getting paid to do this, why are you doing this?
And to me, you're already missing the point. This is,
as you know, we both fell in love with radio, Danny.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
This is radio.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We're talking about the most intimate, most personal medium there is.
And every once in a while, you sit alone right
in the studio and you listening will you'll be alone.
You'll lay in bed alone, maybe you've got insomnia. It
might even be married. There might be somebody next to you,
but they're sleeping, so you're pretty much alone. And you're
driving alone, you're working at night, you're in your own
(03:24):
little world. You know, the voice in the dark that
would be coming out of the magic radio box or whatever,
And so every so often that voice in this case me,
we decide to step out and as weed Man hit
me calls of the magic radio box and see if
the people on the other end of the speaker actually exist.
(03:46):
Spoiler alert, Danny, they actually do.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
They actually do. I know, Sap, you were waxing poetically.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I know a deep thoughts on the Fifth Hour podcast. Now,
how many people are going to show up? This is
another question I get a lot of, Danny. I have
no idea. No one may show. We might just be
there and that's it. Nobody will be there. I don't know,
maybe five people, six people. There could be six hundred.
I had a dream. I don't dream very often, Danny,
but I had a dream the other day that it
(04:17):
could be like six thousand, you know, and suddenly Clark
County's finest. We'll be asking who's this guy named slug
who organized this flash mob at some bar near UNLV, Like,
what is this all about? And that's uh, that's part
of the charm, Danny. That's that's part of the charm.
And there's no RSVPs, although some people of us know
(04:38):
they're gonna be here. Like supermarket Steve Queen Rocks in
Big lou He's on number two from the LBC. Some
legends have announced they're going to be there, but as
far as I know, there's no bottle service. It's it's
in many ways a democracy, right, It's you show up,
and it's the silent majority, the people that listen but
(05:00):
don't actually usually call the show and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
And so the people that.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Will be there though salt of the earth and it's
not some sanitized corporate networking mixer type deal.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Everyone's on their best behavior.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
The way I would sum this up, and I want
to get your thoughts on this, Danny, because the way
I would sum up a malard meat green, I've talked
about this. I don't do it often, but every once
in a while I'll go out to Santa Anita here
in Socow beautiful racetrack, and I'll look at the crowd
and I'm always amazed by the crowd or a horse race,
and I think we've gotten to that point with the
(05:38):
Malard militia. It's a race track crowd and I love it.
I'm talking about rich guy, poor guy. You know here
in Vegas is you know the whale that gambles a
ton of money, and then right next to that person
would be like some degenerate gambler and you know, somebody
who lost all their money, but they still have a
(05:59):
little bit left to buy Keno tickets or something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
And so to give you an example, last.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Year we had at the meet and greet we did,
which was in August of twenty twenty four, we had
an actual Bolaggio executive who was there, and ten minutes
later a guy known as mouth Washed Mike, the homeless, lovable,
possibly intoxicated, well definitely intoxicated guy. He showed up telling
(06:29):
stories about he's from the Midwest, but he lives in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Here, I don't know that he lives in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
He's homeless, and he was telling stories about swimming in
the same Blaggio fountains from the you know, the executive
that had been there and wanted me to go out
and watch him swim. And and that's the that's the
gist of it. It's like a racetrack crowd. So there'll
be some really rich, successful people there and then there'll
be other people who are not doing so well. And
(06:56):
I've never been to a Colin Cowherd appearance. I don't
know that he does the is I doubt he does,
But if he does, I'm guessing it's probably the same,
unless it's not.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
He's had events for the Volume, which is his podcast network.
But yeah, but it's not. It's not usually for the listeners.
It's for the industry. They're like industry parties, the VIP.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Yeahah, so this to me that the appeal is like
the malor meet and read is unpredictable. We have done
a lot of these. The one in Boston. We had
Dave from Florida who drove all the way up just
to hang out for an hour at the cask and
flagging in Boston and you know whatever, thousand miles.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Whatever it was.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
And then he had Roscoe the parrot, and I said,
where's Roscoe. The parry says, don't worry, hold on, let
me go to the car and get Roscoe. And then
he walked back in and he held up very proudly
Roscoe the parrot.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Who is a stuffed animal that was taxidermy or.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
No, no, no stuff dni.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Yeah. No. It's a wide range of people, from lawyers
to the people lawyers sometimes put away in jail.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yeah, well, I'll give you exp what Eddie called into
the show. A couple of days back, and he had
mentioned that he had met a big fan of the
Overnight Show, a gentleman named Sherwin. And Sherwin is a
retired federal judge. That's like the that's pretty close to
the top. You're a federal judge. You know, you're not
(08:38):
Supreme Court judge, but you're a federal judge. And so
it is really the wild wild West, and you don't
know who you're gonna meet. There'll be some big executives there,
and then there'll be a truck driver from Bakersfield, and
maybe there'll be some guy wearing an old clippers lamar
odom jersey who just came back from the Bunny ranch.
And you know, you don't want to really touch that
guy's hands, you know, but yeah, you know, just hang out.
(09:02):
And it's always fun too because I'm, as you know, Danny,
I'm an introvert. I am not the most social person,
so it is out of my comfort zone to do
these things. It is, and then a lot of the
people will also be introverts that will show up today,
and so it's it's always an awkward things like you
always can tell the people in the back of the
(09:22):
room that want to be there, but kind of don't
want to be there, you know what I mean, Danny,
You're like, yeah, I know, I want to. I'm a
fan of the show, but I don't really like being
around other people, and so I kind of I totally
get that.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
It's kind of like being a chaperone at a dance.
A lot of a lot of the kids are too shy,
so they're up against the wall and you have to
like push them up against each other so they could
really bump and grind.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. But then there's also there's a
few people that are extroverts and swap spit and the
extroverts one did there they want to be the star
of the show.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Oh yeah, there's always somebody tap dancing.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah yeah, there's always I mean, we had and I
don't know if he's going to be be here in
Vegas today. We had Surfer Todd, the comedian was great
and he he came with his wife, a great couple
of his fun people, total extroverts, you know, total extroverts.
And then I hit our buddy from Knoxville, who's not
gonna be able to make it. We had Tammy, who
(10:19):
lives here in Vegas, but she's busy. She won't be
here today, so who knows. But it's gonna be fun,
have a good time, and hopefully no one there Danny
will be suffering from Donald derangement syndrome.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I'm hoping. I don't know though, maybe they will be.
I have no idea.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Tag oh val yah.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah. At the end of last Saturday's podcast, we gave
big ups to mister k he knows some people. He
knows some Disney folks. Yeah, Minnie Mouse, I think he
used to date. Yeah. They don't like to talk about that,
but yeah, yeah, he broke up the Happy Home with Mickey.
So cool that I was able to get to bring
(10:57):
the family to the park. We get inside and you know,
the morning is great there because there's not the full
on rush of people yet the weather is not you know, Anaheim, California.
When it says it's seventy four, it feels like ninety
four there inside the park.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Yeah, there's a lot of concrete, there's a lot of asphalt.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
And a lot of bodies. Yeah. And we started out
by running over to Toontown. When you went to Disney,
did you go on the railroad Mickey's railroad?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I did not I did not make it to Toontown.
We mostly hung out around Pirates of the Caribbean in
that area, and we went to the Star Wars thing
a little bit. We didn't make it all the way
back to Toontown.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
How was it was? It? Was it all right? I
think that's that new Mickey Mouse ride they do the
old school cartoon. You're standing in front of the screen
and then the train like crashes through the screen and
there's real smoke that comes out, and CoA said, Wow,
if CoA could curse, he would have said, holy shit.
(12:01):
That was the tone in his voice. So he was
blown away by that. And then we're walking through the
rest of Toontown. My better half she sees the Donald
Dutt character walking through. Now, you know, and we've made
fun of Disney adults before on the radio. These are
grown men and women who stand in line and they
(12:24):
make the lines impossible. These characters are there for the kids.
They're not there. They shouldn't be there for the adults.
I understand if you love Disneyland, and I like the
park a lot, but I'm not gonna take a spot
in the line to meet a character holding an autograph book. Yeah,
it's a little tough. Yeah, I've seen grown adults holding
autograph books standing in the line, pushing little kids out
(12:48):
of the way so that they could get one of
the character's autographs. Yeah, well, what should be the cutoff
on that, Danny? What do you think? Probably twelve years old? Okay,
Now Brenda's fall Donald. She's holding CoA, so she has
a reason to stalk Donald.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
And again, for those that are new to the podcast,
how old is Cole?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Again, He's very like a couple of years old? Right,
he just had his second birthday a couple of weeks ago.
I get a couple two years old. That's it just
turned to. It's one of his favorite things to say.
He holds up two bananas and he says two two,
and I'm like, how old are you? And he says too.
He sounds very Italian when he says it. Yeah, So
(13:29):
Brenda is now stalking Donald Duck because she knows Donald
is on his way to a signing or you know,
people take photos with him. They have these little spaces
where they walk the character over and then they'll start
forming the line. And there's the employees who are now
trying to orchestrate everything of this rude family cuts in
front of Brenda even though she's first. Ah, and now
(13:53):
we have to wait for CoA to meet Donald Duck.
Now he just turned too. He doesn't understand sharing yet.
He doesn't understand the concept of waiting for anything. The
fact that these kids, these two kids in this family
cut in front of him. He was super pissed off,
to the point where he was screaming as if Donald
(14:15):
Duck was murdering him with a knife. Got a murder.
You should have saw the look on the employees' faces.
And now these two little kids, they have autograph books. Okay,
that's cool because they're the ones that are supposed to
have those books. Although I still don't understand that. Either
you give your little kid an autograph book. I don't
want Mickey Mouse's autograph or Mini's or any of those
characters autographs, but whatever, these kids get the autograph. Meanwhile,
(14:39):
I know you.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Want Danny's Walt Disney's autograph, but he's not available.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yes, yeah, if you got his autograph, that would be
magical and slightly creepy and cryptkeeper. Like CoA, he's not
understanding why he has to wait, Like I see Donald
Donald's right there, he's right in front of me. Give me,
Donald Duck. Finally these little kids and they're taken forever.
(15:04):
They move out of the way. We walk CoA over,
and his tears they go away pretty fast because Donald
Donald's like trying to calm him down. And I'm gonna
shoot you a picture right now. This is uh, this
is when the crying stopped and CoA leaned over and
gave Donald Duck a huge hug. All right, Oh man,
(15:26):
look at that. That is joy right there.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
That is uh, his face is buried and yeah, ah
on Donald's armpit.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Is that's that's great? Yeah? Not the uh, not the
most clean part of that costume right there to put
your face in. By the way, what kind of job
is that where you have to stand in one of
those As I said, once the sun came out, it
felt like one hundred degrees in the park. For those
employees who wear those character costumes, do they get hazard pay? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Well, I obviously they don't work that long, right, They
take a lot of breaks. But I can only imagine
what the smell must have been like when they took
that thing off. I was I've told the story before,
but years ago, when I was doing stuff for the Dodgers.
We were in Milwaukee at the old County Stadium and
I was walking It was a day game, the Brewer
day game. We were walking around in the bowels of
(16:19):
County Stadium. We walked into a backroom and a friend
of mine that showed me where the racing sausages uniforms
were sausage race and they only wear those for like
one half inning in between. I think it's the seventh
inning where they the sausage race. And I went in
there and I picked one of the costumes up and
it smelled Danny like. It smelled like a hockey locker room,
(16:42):
you know, terrible. It was foul. I can only in
those Disney costumes. They were him every day, right NonStop. Man,
Oh look cool, cool. I'm seeing another photo here.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah. I sent the one as he's parting ways with
Donald and he says bye bye, and he said, thank you.
That is great. That is outstanding. Many long day at
the park. You do it for the kids. Your legs
feel like jello. At the end of the night. We
(17:13):
stayed all the way till midnight. We closed that bitch
down because we knew we weren't going to be able
to go back anytime soon, especially with all the kids
together because now two of them are off to school.
So it was a beautiful, beautiful day. Again, thank you
to circle K there. Yeah, man, yeah, And that's gonna
be one of my longtime memories now, is how CoA
(17:36):
just could not wait to get into Donald Duck's arms.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
That's that photo of him, your your son who by
the way, there's no debate, that's your son. Looks just
like it just looks just dead wringer.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
You know, I'll post that picture today at Danny G
Radio on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
But that's you know, that's why you know you spend
the money. Now, we had the the sugar daddy, uh
you know a circle k who helped us out.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
But that was that was That's great.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Man, That's an awesome photo him so very very cool
and definitely Donald arrangement syndrome. And is it still I
know it's been a few days, is co is still
romanticizing Donald Duck? Have you have you shown him like
Donald Duck cartoons on the phone?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Have you pulled out some old yeah, you know what
he's been doing the past week now. He pulled out
all of his Disney stuffed animals that he has, and
he's been lining them up and he's been carrying the
Donald around by itself, like to the high chair, to
the to the bath. And now that Donald Duck is
on his hip. That's awesome. And you know he feels
(18:41):
like he knows him. Now. Oh yeah, we were tight,
you know, hell yeah, you know that's my dog, the boy.
I heard that, my duck. That's my duck, my duckh
that's great.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Uh So turning the page on that though, as as
you know, uh any, we text now and again, we
keep in content. We do the podcast every weekend and
you listening as a p one last weekend took an
extended elongated couple of days and went on a little roady.
(19:16):
And here's the thing though, I bring this up from
time to time when you live in southern California, like
we do the show from Southern California, live here, your
road trips, stay in California, like the state is too big.
It's you know, I realized, I'm doing this from Vegas,
which is like a suburb of LA but it really
is the Hotel California. You can check out anytime, but
(19:39):
you can never leave. And we packed up the station wagon.
The otherwise knows the malormobile. We went full I'm gonna
date myself full heule Houser in search of California's goal.
That's a dated reference, but this guy was a legend
on PBS many years ago.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Rest in peace, fuel Houser. And so we hit the road.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
This was the last I guess the Thursday prior Thursday prior,
and was we went right into the buzzsaw, right into
the bus. So that is Los Angeles traffic. And if
you're the type who loves what I call the Big three, Danny,
I call it the Big three. I call it gridlock, congestion,
and smog, this was your paradise. And so I'm the
(20:19):
driver who I'm in the big chair, and I'm driving.
The wife is the navigator, not that you really need
a navigator, but you're trying to avoid the traffic, so
you have the wife be the navigator. And I will
not reveal her name, although the court systems may or
may not list her as my spouse. So we were
both running on fumes that were working overnight, and there
(20:41):
was a tactical error that was made. Believe it or not,
we were supposed to zig instead of zag and as
a result of that tacnical error, which again I was
the driver, I was not the navigator, so I'm not
taking responsibility.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I'm blaming the wife.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Anyway, we ended upright in the belly of the beast
on the four to five freeway at the worst possible time.
Bumper to bumper to bumper to bumper, cars stacked up
like dominoes and who goofed. I've got to know, on
the four h five freeway a place you don't want
to be. And then serendipity, sirens, flashing lights, lights, red
(21:28):
lights and blue lights spinning around. Now, my wife spotted
it first because I was in a traffic days and
way off in the distance.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (21:39):
And she said, is that a funeral procession? You see
all those lights up there, Maybe that's the royal family.
And I kind of turned my head and I looked
out in the distance and I saw, you know, I
moved my neck a little bit. I saw there were
multiple California Highway Patrol motorcycles, and then there was a bus,
(22:02):
and then there was another bus, and then there were
there was not three buses, and there weren't four.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
There was I think there was five or six.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
It was a fleet of buses, all of them in
perfect military style formation, surrounded by a brigade of cops
a motorcade.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
And so at first I thought, well, maybe that's Lance
the bus driver doing the tributes, because you knew I
was leaving town. And then I realized, well, he's in
San Francisco, and said, well, maybe that's Roberto of a
bus driver. And then no, Roberto drives up. He's driving school.
And then I thought, well, maybe that's Mason the bus driver,
and he said no, he's in he's in the Bay Area.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
And I saw it and it was just like a
just like a song. I saw the sign Danny as
we got closer, and it took a long time because
we're in bumper to bumper traffic. We're on we're going
northbound on the four oh five. This thing's coming southbound
on the four oh five. We're in the kind of
the West LA area, right around the ten Freeway, a
(23:01):
little south of that, so I think that's West.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
La and uh, where's driving?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
And then I saw on the on the wind shield
there was a little white placard on the first bus
and it had a star on it. And it wasn't
just any star. It's not the star of David. It
was not Captain America's iconic you know shield star when
that this was the star, the iconic logo of America's team,
(23:28):
the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
They were leaving Oxnard.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
They trained in southern California up and ox starred and
they were headinging camp.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Yeah, they were heading to lax to fly back to
Dallas for a meaningless exhibition game. And this was not
meaningless though, this was a moment.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yea.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Even my wife, who as you know, you've you've met
my wife a few times over the years. Yeah, yeah,
well that's just Na. She does not have the sports gene.
She's lacking the sports team. And even she recognized the
Cowboys logo. That's how big they are, right, the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
The Cowboys are beyond football, one of the biggest worldwide brands.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Yeah, I mean it's good there beyond football because they're
really bad at football. They're pop culture. They're McDonald's, they're
Nike there, you know, Costco, Taylor, Swift, Apple, all that stuff.
Rolling the run and so I mean, well, care's your
traffic there on the out side of fur. But for me, Danny,
it hit differently, and I for a second I paused,
and I'm like, you know how many hours I've spent
(24:34):
how many years of my life barking into a microphone
about the Dallas Cowboys, waxing poetic about Jerry Jones fun
Zone Carnival in Jerry's world, and Dak Prescott's ceiling or
lack thereof, or Micah Parsons chasing ghosts, and the endless
soap opera that is the Dallas football team. And there
(24:55):
they were, just a few feet away from me, surrounded
by a concrete divider, and on those buses, surrounded by
a fleet of police. Jerry's in there somewhere, Dak, Micah,
Cede Lamb, the NEPO baby, Brian Schottenheimer. Frankly, you won't
see a more gifted.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Passer, That's right.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
And in many ways I was trying to circum size
a mosquito, Danny, as I was thinking of all the
cast of characters, Schottenheimer and all the rest there who
I know will fill valuable talk radio real estate from
now until the draft and beyond, Like ships passing in
the smoggy La afternoon, Hayes there and right there, on
one side, you had the Cowboys on the other side,
(25:40):
just a struggling gas bag, and they were America's team,
knowing that we'll meet again at the witching hour on
the radio, and so in honor of Hulhauser, Danny, that
was California's gold right there. Well, I guess it's Texas's gold.
But still there was a weird, serendipitous moment. So on
(26:01):
that we'll get out, Danny. We got the mail bag.
The meet and greet is this afternoon, three o'clock till
five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You should probably already know that.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
You should already know that, and you might be listening
to this after the meet and greet. So I hope
it went well. And if it didn't go well, we'll
pretend it did go well. So we'll get out on that.
That's what I'm doing today, Danny. Anything else you want
to promote here, anything you'd like to say and celebrate
on this college football Saturday.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Last weekend was busy. This weekend, just gonna sit back
and relax with some football, settle in just a little
bit beautiful, all.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Right, heavy, wonderful rest you Saturday. We thank you for
coming out today to the Malor Meet and Greet. We
thank you if you thought about coming out to the
Mallor Meet and get but didn't show up, but either
way we'll have great stories to tell. We got the
mail bag for you tomorrow and we'll talk to you then.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Have fun at the meet and greet. Asta Pasta by Bend,

Kutbooms.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
If you thought four hours a day, twelve hundred minutes
a week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants
of the old republic, a sol fashion of fairness. He
treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
rich pill poppers in the penthouse. Wow to Clearinghouse of
hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour
(00:23):
with Ben Maller starts right now.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
In the air everywhere. The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben
Maller and Danny G. Radio A Happy Saturday. It is
the twenty third day of August as I hang out
here at a very early morning hour in Lost Wages, Nevada,
and I have made some donations here to the local economy,
(00:51):
which I guess is struggling everywhere I read on social media.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
It's struggling in.
Speaker 3 (00:54):
Danny G Radio holding down the ford in LaVita Loca
in southern California. And we are reunited here on a
very important day which we will get into in a minute. Danny,
We've got Vegas Baby Donald derangement syndrome, but not what
you think and Benny and the Boys. Now that has
(01:17):
the makings of a very mediocre podcast. Danny but it'll
be hopell me better than mediocre. We're hoping better than
mediocre on the fifth hour today.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
By the way, we are now less than two weeks
away from the NFL season.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah, college football beginning right. It was from college football.
It's like a soft launch for college.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
Football week zero. Right.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
I was told like I on the Overnight show. I say, well,
it's the zero hour, and then I said, well, no,
that's it's our one. I said, well, no to me,
it's the zero hour, and then Lorena would argue with me.
I said, one, it's zero and she said, no, it's
our one. It's not the zero hour. We got into that.
But today's today, Danny. Today is today. It is launch day.
It is blast off. We're on I'm the launching pad
(02:01):
right now. This has become we we wanted to be
an annual pilgrimage. We think it's going to become that.
This is year number two. The faithful, the curious, and
the What the hell else am I going to do?
I'm a middle aged person. It's a Saturday in Vegas.
I got nothing else to do. That crowd will all
descend upon the Stakeout Bar and Grill over near UNLV
(02:27):
here in the desert this afternoon. It is the twenty
twenty five Vegas Malor Meet and Greet, and it is
on like a Donkey Kong video game, and I'm very
excited about that. People have been asking questions, Danny. We've
you've been to some of these in the past. I've
done a lot of them, and we promoted it a
(02:47):
lot on the Overnight Show, and people have been asking
questions like, why are you doing this, Why you're not
getting paid to do this, why are you doing this?
And to me, you're already missing the point. This is,
as you know, we both fell in love with radio, Danny.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
This is radio.
Speaker 3 (03:01):
We're talking about the most intimate, most personal medium there is.
And every once in a while, you sit alone right
in the studio and you listening will you'll be alone.
You'll lay in bed alone, maybe you've got insomnia. It
might even be married. There might be somebody next to you,
but they're sleeping, so you're pretty much alone. And you're
driving alone, you're working at night, you're in your own
(03:24):
little world. You know, the voice in the dark that
would be coming out of the magic radio box or whatever,
And so every so often that voice in this case me,
we decide to step out and as weed Man hit
me calls of the magic radio box and see if
the people on the other end of the speaker actually exist.
(03:46):
Spoiler alert, Danny, they actually do.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
They actually do. I know, Sap, you were waxing poetically.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I know a deep thoughts on the Fifth Hour podcast. Now,
how many people are going to show up? This is
another question I get a lot of, Danny. I have
no idea. No one may show. We might just be
there and that's it. Nobody will be there. I don't know,
maybe five people, six people. There could be six hundred.
I had a dream. I don't dream very often, Danny,
but I had a dream the other day that it
(04:17):
could be like six thousand, you know, and suddenly Clark
County's finest. We'll be asking who's this guy named slug
who organized this flash mob at some bar near UNLV, Like,
what is this all about? And that's uh, that's part
of the charm, Danny. That's that's part of the charm.
And there's no RSVPs, although some people of us know
(04:38):
they're gonna be here. Like supermarket Steve Queen Rocks in
Big lou He's on number two from the LBC. Some
legends have announced they're going to be there, but as
far as I know, there's no bottle service. It's it's
in many ways a democracy, right, It's you show up,
and it's the silent majority, the people that listen but
(05:00):
don't actually usually call the show and stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
And so the people that.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Will be there though salt of the earth and it's
not some sanitized corporate networking mixer type deal.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Everyone's on their best behavior.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
The way I would sum this up, and I want
to get your thoughts on this, Danny, because the way
I would sum up a malard meat green, I've talked
about this. I don't do it often, but every once
in a while I'll go out to Santa Anita here
in Socow beautiful racetrack, and I'll look at the crowd
and I'm always amazed by the crowd or a horse race,
and I think we've gotten to that point with the
(05:38):
Malard militia. It's a race track crowd and I love it.
I'm talking about rich guy, poor guy. You know here
in Vegas is you know the whale that gambles a
ton of money, and then right next to that person
would be like some degenerate gambler and you know, somebody
who lost all their money, but they still have a
(05:59):
little bit left to buy Keno tickets or something like that.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
And so to give you an example, last.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Year we had at the meet and greet we did,
which was in August of twenty twenty four, we had
an actual Bolaggio executive who was there, and ten minutes
later a guy known as mouth Washed Mike, the homeless, lovable,
possibly intoxicated, well definitely intoxicated guy. He showed up telling
(06:29):
stories about he's from the Midwest, but he lives in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Here, I don't know that he lives in Vegas.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
He's homeless, and he was telling stories about swimming in
the same Blaggio fountains from the you know, the executive
that had been there and wanted me to go out
and watch him swim. And and that's the that's the
gist of it. It's like a racetrack crowd. So there'll
be some really rich, successful people there and then there'll
be other people who are not doing so well. And
(06:56):
I've never been to a Colin Cowherd appearance. I don't
know that he does the is I doubt he does,
But if he does, I'm guessing it's probably the same,
unless it's not.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
He's had events for the Volume, which is his podcast network.
But yeah, but it's not. It's not usually for the listeners.
It's for the industry. They're like industry parties, the VIP.
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Yeahah, so this to me that the appeal is like
the malor meet and read is unpredictable. We have done
a lot of these. The one in Boston. We had
Dave from Florida who drove all the way up just
to hang out for an hour at the cask and
flagging in Boston and you know whatever, thousand miles.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
Whatever it was.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
And then he had Roscoe the parrot, and I said,
where's Roscoe. The parry says, don't worry, hold on, let
me go to the car and get Roscoe. And then
he walked back in and he held up very proudly
Roscoe the parrot.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Who is a stuffed animal that was taxidermy or.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
No, no, no stuff dni.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Yeah. No. It's a wide range of people, from lawyers
to the people lawyers sometimes put away in jail.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yeah, well, I'll give you exp what Eddie called into
the show. A couple of days back, and he had
mentioned that he had met a big fan of the
Overnight Show, a gentleman named Sherwin. And Sherwin is a
retired federal judge. That's like the that's pretty close to
the top. You're a federal judge. You know, you're not
(08:38):
Supreme Court judge, but you're a federal judge. And so
it is really the wild wild West, and you don't
know who you're gonna meet. There'll be some big executives there,
and then there'll be a truck driver from Bakersfield, and
maybe there'll be some guy wearing an old clippers lamar
odom jersey who just came back from the Bunny ranch.
And you know, you don't want to really touch that
guy's hands, you know, but yeah, you know, just hang out.
(09:02):
And it's always fun too because I'm, as you know, Danny,
I'm an introvert. I am not the most social person,
so it is out of my comfort zone to do
these things. It is, and then a lot of the
people will also be introverts that will show up today,
and so it's it's always an awkward things like you
always can tell the people in the back of the
(09:22):
room that want to be there, but kind of don't
want to be there, you know what I mean, Danny,
You're like, yeah, I know, I want to. I'm a
fan of the show, but I don't really like being
around other people, and so I kind of I totally
get that.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
It's kind of like being a chaperone at a dance.
A lot of a lot of the kids are too shy,
so they're up against the wall and you have to
like push them up against each other so they could
really bump and grind.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah. But then there's also there's a
few people that are extroverts and swap spit and the
extroverts one did there they want to be the star
of the show.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Oh yeah, there's always somebody tap dancing.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Yeah yeah, there's always I mean, we had and I
don't know if he's going to be be here in
Vegas today. We had Surfer Todd, the comedian was great
and he he came with his wife, a great couple
of his fun people, total extroverts, you know, total extroverts.
And then I hit our buddy from Knoxville, who's not
gonna be able to make it. We had Tammy, who
(10:19):
lives here in Vegas, but she's busy. She won't be
here today, so who knows. But it's gonna be fun,
have a good time, and hopefully no one there Danny
will be suffering from Donald derangement syndrome.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I'm hoping. I don't know though, maybe they will be.
I have no idea.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Tag oh val yah.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Yeah. At the end of last Saturday's podcast, we gave
big ups to mister k he knows some people. He
knows some Disney folks. Yeah, Minnie Mouse, I think he
used to date. Yeah. They don't like to talk about that,
but yeah, yeah, he broke up the Happy Home with Mickey.
So cool that I was able to get to bring
(10:57):
the family to the park. We get inside and you know,
the morning is great there because there's not the full
on rush of people yet the weather is not you know, Anaheim, California.
When it says it's seventy four, it feels like ninety
four there inside the park.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Yeah, there's a lot of concrete, there's a lot of asphalt.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
And a lot of bodies. Yeah. And we started out
by running over to Toontown. When you went to Disney,
did you go on the railroad Mickey's railroad?
Speaker 3 (11:26):
I did not I did not make it to Toontown.
We mostly hung out around Pirates of the Caribbean in
that area, and we went to the Star Wars thing
a little bit. We didn't make it all the way
back to Toontown.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
How was it was? It? Was it all right? I
think that's that new Mickey Mouse ride they do the
old school cartoon. You're standing in front of the screen
and then the train like crashes through the screen and
there's real smoke that comes out, and CoA said, Wow,
if CoA could curse, he would have said, holy shit.
(12:01):
That was the tone in his voice. So he was
blown away by that. And then we're walking through the
rest of Toontown. My better half she sees the Donald
Dutt character walking through. Now, you know, and we've made
fun of Disney adults before on the radio. These are
grown men and women who stand in line and they
(12:24):
make the lines impossible. These characters are there for the kids.
They're not there. They shouldn't be there for the adults.
I understand if you love Disneyland, and I like the
park a lot, but I'm not gonna take a spot
in the line to meet a character holding an autograph book. Yeah,
it's a little tough. Yeah, I've seen grown adults holding
autograph books standing in the line, pushing little kids out
(12:48):
of the way so that they could get one of
the character's autographs. Yeah, well, what should be the cutoff
on that, Danny? What do you think? Probably twelve years old? Okay,
Now Brenda's fall Donald. She's holding CoA, so she has
a reason to stalk Donald.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
And again, for those that are new to the podcast,
how old is Cole?
Speaker 1 (13:08):
Again, He's very like a couple of years old? Right,
he just had his second birthday a couple of weeks ago.
I get a couple two years old. That's it just
turned to. It's one of his favorite things to say.
He holds up two bananas and he says two two,
and I'm like, how old are you? And he says too.
He sounds very Italian when he says it. Yeah, So
(13:29):
Brenda is now stalking Donald Duck because she knows Donald
is on his way to a signing or you know,
people take photos with him. They have these little spaces
where they walk the character over and then they'll start
forming the line. And there's the employees who are now
trying to orchestrate everything of this rude family cuts in
front of Brenda even though she's first. Ah, and now
(13:53):
we have to wait for CoA to meet Donald Duck.
Now he just turned too. He doesn't understand sharing yet.
He doesn't understand the concept of waiting for anything. The
fact that these kids, these two kids in this family
cut in front of him. He was super pissed off,
to the point where he was screaming as if Donald
(14:15):
Duck was murdering him with a knife. Got a murder.
You should have saw the look on the employees' faces.
And now these two little kids, they have autograph books. Okay,
that's cool because they're the ones that are supposed to
have those books. Although I still don't understand that. Either
you give your little kid an autograph book. I don't
want Mickey Mouse's autograph or Mini's or any of those
characters autographs, but whatever, these kids get the autograph. Meanwhile,
(14:39):
I know you.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
Want Danny's Walt Disney's autograph, but he's not available.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Yes, yeah, if you got his autograph, that would be
magical and slightly creepy and cryptkeeper. Like CoA, he's not
understanding why he has to wait, Like I see Donald
Donald's right there, he's right in front of me. Give me,
Donald Duck. Finally these little kids and they're taken forever.
(15:04):
They move out of the way. We walk CoA over,
and his tears they go away pretty fast because Donald
Donald's like trying to calm him down. And I'm gonna
shoot you a picture right now. This is uh, this
is when the crying stopped and CoA leaned over and
gave Donald Duck a huge hug. All right, Oh man,
(15:26):
look at that. That is joy right there.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
That is uh, his face is buried and yeah, ah
on Donald's armpit.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Is that's that's great? Yeah? Not the uh, not the
most clean part of that costume right there to put
your face in. By the way, what kind of job
is that where you have to stand in one of
those As I said, once the sun came out, it
felt like one hundred degrees in the park. For those
employees who wear those character costumes, do they get hazard pay? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (15:59):
Well, I obviously they don't work that long, right, They
take a lot of breaks. But I can only imagine
what the smell must have been like when they took
that thing off. I was I've told the story before,
but years ago, when I was doing stuff for the Dodgers.
We were in Milwaukee at the old County Stadium and
I was walking It was a day game, the Brewer
day game. We were walking around in the bowels of
(16:19):
County Stadium. We walked into a backroom and a friend
of mine that showed me where the racing sausages uniforms
were sausage race and they only wear those for like
one half inning in between. I think it's the seventh
inning where they the sausage race. And I went in
there and I picked one of the costumes up and
it smelled Danny like. It smelled like a hockey locker room,
(16:42):
you know, terrible. It was foul. I can only in
those Disney costumes. They were him every day, right NonStop. Man,
Oh look cool, cool. I'm seeing another photo here.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Yeah. I sent the one as he's parting ways with
Donald and he says bye bye, and he said, thank you.
That is great. That is outstanding. Many long day at
the park. You do it for the kids. Your legs
feel like jello. At the end of the night. We
(17:13):
stayed all the way till midnight. We closed that bitch
down because we knew we weren't going to be able
to go back anytime soon, especially with all the kids
together because now two of them are off to school.
So it was a beautiful, beautiful day. Again, thank you
to circle K there. Yeah, man, yeah, And that's gonna
be one of my longtime memories now, is how CoA
(17:36):
just could not wait to get into Donald Duck's arms.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
That's that photo of him, your your son who by
the way, there's no debate, that's your son. Looks just
like it just looks just dead wringer.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
You know, I'll post that picture today at Danny G
Radio on Twitter.
Speaker 3 (17:55):
But that's you know, that's why you know you spend
the money. Now, we had the the sugar daddy, uh
you know a circle k who helped us out.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
But that was that was That's great.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Man, That's an awesome photo him so very very cool
and definitely Donald arrangement syndrome. And is it still I
know it's been a few days, is co is still
romanticizing Donald Duck? Have you have you shown him like
Donald Duck cartoons on the phone?
Speaker 1 (18:21):
Have you pulled out some old yeah, you know what
he's been doing the past week now. He pulled out
all of his Disney stuffed animals that he has, and
he's been lining them up and he's been carrying the
Donald around by itself, like to the high chair, to
the to the bath. And now that Donald Duck is
on his hip. That's awesome. And you know he feels
(18:41):
like he knows him. Now. Oh yeah, we were tight,
you know, hell yeah, you know that's my dog, the boy.
I heard that, my duck. That's my duck, my duckh
that's great.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
Uh So turning the page on that though, as as
you know, uh any, we text now and again, we
keep in content. We do the podcast every weekend and
you listening as a p one last weekend took an
extended elongated couple of days and went on a little roady.
(19:16):
And here's the thing though, I bring this up from
time to time when you live in southern California, like
we do the show from Southern California, live here, your
road trips, stay in California, like the state is too big.
It's you know, I realized, I'm doing this from Vegas,
which is like a suburb of LA but it really
is the Hotel California. You can check out anytime, but
(19:39):
you can never leave. And we packed up the station wagon.
The otherwise knows the malormobile. We went full I'm gonna
date myself full heule Houser in search of California's goal.
That's a dated reference, but this guy was a legend
on PBS many years ago.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Rest in peace, fuel Houser. And so we hit the road.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
This was the last I guess the Thursday prior Thursday prior,
and was we went right into the buzzsaw, right into
the bus. So that is Los Angeles traffic. And if
you're the type who loves what I call the Big three, Danny,
I call it the Big three. I call it gridlock, congestion,
and smog, this was your paradise. And so I'm the
(20:19):
driver who I'm in the big chair, and I'm driving.
The wife is the navigator, not that you really need
a navigator, but you're trying to avoid the traffic, so
you have the wife be the navigator. And I will
not reveal her name, although the court systems may or
may not list her as my spouse. So we were
both running on fumes that were working overnight, and there
(20:41):
was a tactical error that was made. Believe it or not,
we were supposed to zig instead of zag and as
a result of that tacnical error, which again I was
the driver, I was not the navigator, so I'm not
taking responsibility.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
I'm blaming the wife.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
Anyway, we ended upright in the belly of the beast
on the four to five freeway at the worst possible time.
Bumper to bumper to bumper to bumper, cars stacked up
like dominoes and who goofed. I've got to know, on
the four h five freeway a place you don't want
to be. And then serendipity, sirens, flashing lights, lights, red
(21:28):
lights and blue lights spinning around. Now, my wife spotted
it first because I was in a traffic days and
way off in the distance.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (21:39):
And she said, is that a funeral procession? You see
all those lights up there, Maybe that's the royal family.
And I kind of turned my head and I looked
out in the distance and I saw, you know, I
moved my neck a little bit. I saw there were
multiple California Highway Patrol motorcycles, and then there was a bus,
(22:02):
and then there was another bus, and then there were
there was not three buses, and there weren't four.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
There was I think there was five or six.
Speaker 3 (22:10):
It was a fleet of buses, all of them in
perfect military style formation, surrounded by a brigade of cops
a motorcade.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
Yeah yeah yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:23):
And so at first I thought, well, maybe that's Lance
the bus driver doing the tributes, because you knew I
was leaving town. And then I realized, well, he's in
San Francisco, and said, well, maybe that's Roberto of a
bus driver. And then no, Roberto drives up. He's driving school.
And then I thought, well, maybe that's Mason the bus driver,
and he said no, he's in he's in the Bay Area.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
And I saw it and it was just like a
just like a song. I saw the sign Danny as
we got closer, and it took a long time because
we're in bumper to bumper traffic. We're on we're going
northbound on the four oh five. This thing's coming southbound
on the four oh five. We're in the kind of
the West LA area, right around the ten Freeway, a
(23:01):
little south of that, so I think that's West.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
La and uh, where's driving?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
And then I saw on the on the wind shield
there was a little white placard on the first bus
and it had a star on it. And it wasn't
just any star. It's not the star of David. It
was not Captain America's iconic you know shield star when
that this was the star, the iconic logo of America's team,
(23:28):
the Dallas Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
They were leaving Oxnard.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
They trained in southern California up and ox starred and
they were headinging camp.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Yeah, they were heading to lax to fly back to
Dallas for a meaningless exhibition game. And this was not
meaningless though, this was a moment.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yea.
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Even my wife, who as you know, you've you've met
my wife a few times over the years. Yeah, yeah,
well that's just Na. She does not have the sports gene.
She's lacking the sports team. And even she recognized the
Cowboys logo. That's how big they are, right, the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (24:08):
The Cowboys are beyond football, one of the biggest worldwide brands.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Yeah, I mean it's good there beyond football because they're
really bad at football. They're pop culture. They're McDonald's, they're
Nike there, you know, Costco, Taylor, Swift, Apple, all that stuff.
Rolling the run and so I mean, well, care's your
traffic there on the out side of fur. But for me, Danny,
it hit differently, and I for a second I paused,
and I'm like, you know how many hours I've spent
(24:34):
how many years of my life barking into a microphone
about the Dallas Cowboys, waxing poetic about Jerry Jones fun
Zone Carnival in Jerry's world, and Dak Prescott's ceiling or
lack thereof, or Micah Parsons chasing ghosts, and the endless
soap opera that is the Dallas football team. And there
(24:55):
they were, just a few feet away from me, surrounded
by a concrete divider, and on those buses, surrounded by
a fleet of police. Jerry's in there somewhere, Dak, Micah,
Cede Lamb, the NEPO baby, Brian Schottenheimer. Frankly, you won't
see a more gifted.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
Passer, That's right.
Speaker 3 (25:17):
And in many ways I was trying to circum size
a mosquito, Danny, as I was thinking of all the
cast of characters, Schottenheimer and all the rest there who
I know will fill valuable talk radio real estate from
now until the draft and beyond, Like ships passing in
the smoggy La afternoon, Hayes there and right there, on
one side, you had the Cowboys on the other side,
(25:40):
just a struggling gas bag, and they were America's team,
knowing that we'll meet again at the witching hour on
the radio, and so in honor of Hulhauser, Danny, that
was California's gold right there. Well, I guess it's Texas's gold.
But still there was a weird, serendipitous moment. So on
(26:01):
that we'll get out, Danny. We got the mail bag.
The meet and greet is this afternoon, three o'clock till
five o'clock.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You should probably already know that.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
You should already know that, and you might be listening
to this after the meet and greet. So I hope
it went well. And if it didn't go well, we'll
pretend it did go well. So we'll get out on that.
That's what I'm doing today, Danny. Anything else you want
to promote here, anything you'd like to say and celebrate
on this college football Saturday.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Last weekend was busy. This weekend, just gonna sit back
and relax with some football, settle in just a little
bit beautiful, all.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Right, heavy, wonderful rest you Saturday. We thank you for
coming out today to the Malor Meet and Greet. We
thank you if you thought about coming out to the
Mallor Meet and get but didn't show up, but either
way we'll have great stories to tell. We got the
mail bag for you tomorrow and we'll talk to you then.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
Have fun at the meet and greet. Asta Pasta by Bend,
some chicken fingers, What buy me my Felicious
