Speaker 1 (00:00):
Kabooms.
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 soul fashion of fairness. He
treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
rich pill poppers in the penthouse.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
It's a clearinghouse of hot takes. Break free for something special.
The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now in.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
The air everywhere, The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben Mahler
and Danny G Radio. Happy Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, And we
have gotten together here on this glorious Sunday while I
am hanging out in Vancouver having the time of my life.
(00:49):
Canadian hospitality wonderful, and we still have the pod to do,
and so we thought we'd change it up a little bit,
this being Sunday, and we'll have the radio show back today,
but with me and Danny G Radio and Danny putting
this together. Who this is the best of the Fifth Hour.
(01:10):
Your ears are about to pop The question when I
talk about this every year, I'm fascinated about what you
do and I want to know it kind of walk
us through post contest because that's the one people ask
many questions about what happened when a human being pushes
(01:33):
the limits, like the Great Joey Chestnut seventy plus hot dogs.
So right after how many hours does it take for
your shall we say to things to exit out of
the Yes, yes, the light the light show.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
It's a I've never exactly timed it, but I would
say it's roughly five hours before.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Nature starts working.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
But it's weird because so after the contest, I have
to do interviews for about an hour afterwards, and they
put it, I mean in this weird like bullpen, and
they bring more people up every every five minutes to
interview me.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
So it takes it takes.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
About an hour to get through that, and then then
it takes an hour to get to get back to
the hotel in Manhattan. So and then I pass out,
and it's a about i'd say about five hours after
the contest, I wake up with a look in my
eye that I'm I'm I'm running.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
You're right, And then are we talking hours on the
iron portion?
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, it's people are like people thinking that it's it's
not the way it works is uh, there's no, it's
not coming out all.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
At once, so there'll be different waves.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
And uh, it comes in waves and yeah it's and
then I would I'm I'm happy I do.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
I gotta do what sponsor sponsorship.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
The wet wise for men, you go, Joe, that's that's
what I'm putting.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Them to use.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
And then uh and how long until before before you
you feel normal? Like is there a is it a
couple of days?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Is it a week?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (03:22):
How long it's it takes it.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
And if it's a good uh, fourth July, and I'll
not be hydrated, it will take me about.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
A day and I have to feel pretty close to normal.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Uh and then then and then another another day or
another day and a half uh to get back to
my normal weight. But uh, it takes it takes about
three days to get get pretty close to normal normal.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
But there's different degrees.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Of and when recovering afterge pushing the body that hard,
definitely takes some time to recover.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So what's your diet like normally like when you're out
just like during when you're not training for an event,
you just are you doing fast thing like.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Pretty I hate pretty clean and unless I'm unless I
uh I try to once a week, I'm definitely having
uh just I want to say reward days as much
as like, oh, I'm I'm I'm enjoying enjoying food.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
I'm not. I'm not holding back, but I try to
keep a pretty uh pretty pretty strict diet.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Low carb, high protein and uh and and and it
allows it so that I, uh that once a week,
I during the weekends, I'm I can push it with
whatever food I want, whether it's a contest or or
or just pure peer pleasure.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
So do you have a man cave with you've won
like these belts and these awards and all this all
over the country. You have like a big man cave
in your house in Indiana a trophy room or what
do you.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Do with all this stuff?
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
My god, I have Uh so, I have a couple
of boxes I never impact from California, a lot of
my trophies. I have an office with a ton of
my trophies. Uh yeah, so so yeah, kind of spread around.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
I need a man cave. I need to put some
work into that. But it's uh, there's a lot of them.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Uh and uh yeah, it was, it was.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
It's weird. You don't really I didn't.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Yeah, I didn't know how many contests I did until
I was actually packing up all all the trophies.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, that's so. Yeah, you never know until you move
how much stuff.
Speaker 5 (05:21):

It's a pain in the pain the behind there man.
All right, So how many more years you're doing this?
Speaker 7 (05:27):

Speaker 1 (05:27):
You said you're thirty eight, right, you're going to be
forty before you know it and all that. So how
many more years do you have in this this?
Speaker 7 (05:34):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I feel.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I feel good.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I look at Tom Brady, he's still going to forty three. Uh,
there were forty four now. Yeah, but it's uh, I
need to make sure that I remain healthy, So I
got to keep putting work in it. It'd be nicer
to it'd be nice to start working out little bit
more so that.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
I can that I can.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
There's a couple of things I need to do to
make sure that I can stay healthy and keep pushing it.
But uh, I know I got at least at least
two more years.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah. And then and you're you got the website there
you're selling Is that your sauce?

Speaker 5 (06:13):
It's fun.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Yeah, a lot of people buying sauces. Uh, and people
who love to eat. So yeah, we got the coney sauce,
which is like it's kind of like a catchup. It's uh,
it's not not not quite a sweet as a catch up,
a little bit more tang to it. And uh, then
my spicy mustard, which I'm in love with, I'll put
that on.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
Yeah, I love that on hot dogs or anything that. Yeah,
you can't sandwich.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Once you're done physically doing the eating, would you teach
other people how to do it?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Yeah, I I've definitely, there's definitely been years. I've helped
over the years, uh and helped it, and I enjoy it.
I enjoy seeing them push their bodies to a new
new level. Uh, it's it's a weird kind of Yeah,
I enjoy seeing other people do it. I remember, Yeah,
(07:05):
it's sometimes I'm definitely not against it. I don't think
I don't think there's enough enough of It's not I
don't want to make clear out of that, but I
still love the contest.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Yeah, but you think thirty is about the limit, right?
You said about where you could teach somebody.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I think I think most Yeah, most people who.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
It's I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I've I've seen a lot of people who who had
no like natural ability, and through just shew determination, they
were able to get to thirty uh and they ate
like a bird naturally. And then they're doing practices and
some jaw exercises and throat and swallowing exercises and they're
(07:46):
able to work up their capacity.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
So it's uh an ability. So so it's uh anybody
can be trained.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
I am right now running from the mountain. I am running.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I was in an instant. There was some poutine that
was dropped. I can't talk about it. So let's get
back in to the best of the Fifth Hour with me.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Ben and Danny G.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I love my suit Gills, Oh man, Lorena's covered in poutine.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
Fell down, Lorena's talk, Oh my god, you killed it
with the knife. Thanks Marcel. I will have some of
the most famous Mallard drops like that one, and some
flashbacks to old overnight shows.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Good morning, Ben, Danny G, Tinder only tips in a
bit of a dry spell. Tinder Guru Danny G is.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Here to have you have a romantic query and you
are under the age of fifty, and you're not week
you and to gut in thief, give up the call.
All right, let's not waste any time, Danny. People need
your wisdom, your advice. You're out there, you're fighting the
good fight, Danny.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
I am.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Let's do this. It is officially humped day. That means
it's time for ten d'errony's all right.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Greg in San Antonio writes, and he says, my girlfriend
hasn't been in the mood lately for sex.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
What should I do.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
Get a new girlfriend? No, Greg, you're gonna have to
get her in the mood. Stress and other things in
life obviously put some of us in a bad space.
Sometimes not us, guys, because most of the times that's
how we de stress, but not for most females. So
give her a massage, take her away, get her out
(09:42):
of whatever stress she's around.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
The good thing Danny about that is you doctor Drew.
When he used to do the love line, he would say,
what might might be her birth control or something? You're like, No,
just get her in the movie solid advice.
Speaker 8 (09:53):
From four plays underrated?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, all right, on that.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Note, Robbie on Twitter writes, and he says, I met
a girl on Tinder quite a few good days tender power,
but I still see her on Tinder?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Should I be concerned? But it doesn't that mean he's
also on Tinder.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
Maybe he's being a creeper just checking up on her. Thought. Yeah,
I've had this happen before, where I've been on maybe
four or five dates with a girl and she'll say,
I see that you're still on tender.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (10:22):
Yeah, because we're not a couple yet. But yeah, so
don't don't trip out on her. I mean, if you
guys get more serious as it goes, then obviously you
need to have a little conversation about where you're at
with your thing. Yeah, because it's not a relationship until
it's a thing, and then once it's the thing, then yeah,
they better get the hell off a tender.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, well you're on tender. I'm not on there, but
a periscope.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
We're on a periscope right now, Yes, Eddie on FSR
if you have the periscope app. And Steve writes in
on Twitter he says, I've been dating a pretty hot
twenty year old who likes to play Justin Bieber from
her phone while we're hanging out. How can I change
your playlist? Yeah, well, good luck.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
That's the downside of a hot twenty year old bad
taste in music. So you got a schooler, you got
to coordinate the music.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Bend the Beabs is still a thing.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because they've been listening to him since
they were what fifteen sixteen, and he's got new music
out right now. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
So well, you know, me and me and Beabes are tight.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Here you are, Well, he touched me, you know he
did sounds personal.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Well, Michael Jackson, it's just a little different schooler.
Speaker 8 (11:32):
On what's some good R and B? What you do,
big band? Get on Pandora or you know one of
the music websites. Play some really good classic soul, some
good classic R and B, and then practice making babies
with her to that music. She'll forget all about Justin Bieber.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Who's the other guy with the Deep Boys. He died
very white, very white, that guy.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
Yeah, some extra pickles on my cheeseburger. Hey, he could
say anything and it sounded cool. What a set of
pipes of very white? He died years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Here we go, it's TINDERRONI tips Danny g Radio. Frank
writes in from piss up Frank.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yes, hi Frank.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
He says, there's a girl I like, but she's super skinny.
I like women with curves. Am I being superficial? No,
because usually it's the other way around.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I think women would like you to be superficial that way.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
Tell a girl that she needs a few tacos and burritos,
she'll take that as a compliment. But I'm the same way.
I like curves too, I think a lot of guys do.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
But there's become the new thing, right.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
There's nothing wrong with the skinny girl, though, because if
you get into a serious relationship, whether you could bulk her.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
Up, you.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Like a minor league player, you could develop the situation exactly.
I used to work with a guy twenty years ago
in radio, and he his idea of the perfect woman
was like ninety nine pounds.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You know, it's just ridiculous. I always thought that's even
back then, I thought it's ridiculous.
Speaker 8 (12:57):
Yeah, not every girl's a spinner. So you know, some
some beef on a woman. That's good. That's a good meal.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
You got Eddie's attention. You definitely got Eddie's attention. And
so there's ten year on tips and plug the podcast.
Do you have your own show? Yeah, it's a live
show podcast.
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Go to my twitter at Danny G Radio. You'll see
the link for the four spot and the spot. Yeah,
and I've been promoting the Ben Mallor show on there too.

just the force.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
Now.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
They wouldn't let me use the g spot. I'm not
sure why you just did. What is a drop?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
It's not trigonometry.
Speaker 8 (13:31):
It's when we capture a funny moment, a moment that
really stood out in a show. Usually when a show
would be ending, Ben would say, hey, our one take
that hour two, there was this that could be a drop,
and or just something where we all knew, oh my god,
that's timeless, that's a drop, and nobody had to say anything.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I already was playing it.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Or something Ben said and we take it out of context,
or it just sounds funny the way he said it.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I was more concerned about him giving it double fish.
You know.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
I went through the computer system at FSR. I went
back six seven years and found some gems. I hope
you enjoy tossed. That's what you gotta right, That's what.

I've interviewed you in the past and you've you've done
all kinds of different things.
Speaker 8 (22:19):
How do you like being a pundit.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Well, it's a lot easier, it's and it's great having
all the answers, you know, from that standpoint. You know,
obviously the work I did at Fox and the NFL
Network was great.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
It's fun.
Speaker 7 (22:32):
Enjoyed staying around the game that way. Now I'm just
do a little bit of radio and not not as
involved with it, but it's great to still, you know,
keep up with the league and what's going on.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
So I went to Minnesota for the first time actually
a few months ago. I had not been to Minnesota.
It was a it was amazing. It's so it's so
beautiful there.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
It's it's wild, it's gorgeous.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
And the weather, the weather is just just outstanding, particularly
in the summer when you see so much heat around
the country. Street grew up near the Canadian.
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Border, uh, and it's we just we just love it.
The temperature fabulous.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Got some great golf up here, just kind of removed
from the hustle and bustle, so we love it up here.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yeah, it's great. Actually I went to Duluth as well.
Speaker 9 (23:16):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
Yeah, we're about an hour and a half north of Duluth.
Oh wow, and right there on the Lake Supurity. Great area.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yeah, it was, it was, it was. I didn't know
what to expect.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
I've lived in southern California, been to the East coast
a bunch, but I was like really impressed. Uh by Minnesota.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Have have you?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Do you live there year round or you?
Speaker 7 (23:34):
I know you?
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Uh no, we're here.
Speaker 7 (23:36):
We're here for summer. So I'm not sure you want
to be up here in February and anywhere. I mean,
it's minus minus forty, minus fifty, so that's uh, that's
only pretty true party Minnesota's Yeah, so we uh we
head back to Columbus, Ohio, where my grandkids are and
during the winter, and then travel a little bit and
get to Florida and Arizona and California and play little
(23:59):
golf in the winter or so. But being up here
from May till about October is just outstanding.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
What's that dynamic like? And there's a great Casey Stango
quote about coaching. You're talking about coaching in baseball and you.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Have to keep like the five guys that you have,
you know, half the locker room might not like you
have to locker room likes you, and then you have
to keep the other guys kind of you know, on you,
away from the ones that don't like you. What is
it like juggling the personalities in in a locker room
situation and how much of that is reality and how
much of that is you know, it's just hey, it's
a job and guys show up and you don't have
(24:33):
to deal with it.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
Well, it's a larger dynamic than when you look at basketball,
which is very much in that in terms of Okay,
I've got to keep this core of of guys happy,
pointing in the right direction. The red go will go
along your gatekeepers. Baseball, obviously, when you're talking about the
numbers football, you're talking about a much larger dynamic, a
much larger team, more personalities in law. But having said that, yeah,
(24:55):
you're going to have a core of guys that you've
got to make sure that you are on the same page.
We just talked about the Jets, and I'm bringing together
a lot of different personalities, so that's part of it
as well. But the lead dog is clearly Aaron Rodgers.
So clearly, as the head coach, you better be on
the same page as an Aaron Rodgers, Sean McDermott. We
(25:18):
talked about in Buffalo. You better be on the same
page of you know, with the Josh Allen and then
on the defensive side when you have guys like a
von Miller and a Micah Hyde, you know, the guys
that are going to lead your team. Yeah, you better
make sure that your gatekeepers are guys that you're all
on the same page to help the others kind of
(25:38):
follow along, follow the suit.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Yeah, for sure, I'll go back to the quarterbacks. One
of the other interesting stories this year is the Great
Unknown with Brock Purty. This guy was a sensation with
the Niners. Brian, he was amazing and nobody expected anything
of him where he was drafted out of Iowa State.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
He played great, But can he do it again? Brian?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Like, what is your position on a guy that kind
of comes out of nowhere and then you got to
go back another year and do it again.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
How's this going to work out for brock Purty and
the Niners?
Speaker 6 (26:14):
Hello Brian, Hello Brian, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 7 (26:37):
Preach Brian, Billy, I'm not available, Please leave him message,
got a murder.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I gotta go
Kabooms.
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 soul fashion of fairness. He
treats crackheads in the ghetto gutter the same as the
rich pill poppers in the penthouse.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
It's a clearinghouse of hot takes. Break free for something special.
The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now in.
Speaker 3 (00:29):
The air everywhere, The Fifth Hour with Me, Ben Mahler
and Danny G Radio. Happy Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, And we
have gotten together here on this glorious Sunday while I
am hanging out in Vancouver having the time of my life.
(00:49):
Canadian hospitality wonderful, and we still have the pod to do,
and so we thought we'd change it up a little bit,
this being Sunday, and we'll have the radio show back today,
but with me and Danny G Radio and Danny putting
this together. Who this is the best of the Fifth Hour.
(01:10):
Your ears are about to pop The question when I
talk about this every year, I'm fascinated about what you
do and I want to know it kind of walk
us through post contest because that's the one people ask
many questions about what happened when a human being pushes
(01:33):
the limits, like the Great Joey Chestnut seventy plus hot dogs.
So right after how many hours does it take for
your shall we say to things to exit out of
the Yes, yes, the light the light show.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
It's a I've never exactly timed it, but I would
say it's roughly five hours before.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Nature starts working.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
But it's weird because so after the contest, I have
to do interviews for about an hour afterwards, and they
put it, I mean in this weird like bullpen, and
they bring more people up every every five minutes to
interview me.
Speaker 5 (02:09):
So it takes it takes.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
About an hour to get through that, and then then
it takes an hour to get to get back to
the hotel in Manhattan. So and then I pass out,
and it's a about i'd say about five hours after
the contest, I wake up with a look in my
eye that I'm I'm I'm running.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
You're right, And then are we talking hours on the
iron portion?
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, it's people are like people thinking that it's it's
not the way it works is uh, there's no, it's
not coming out all.
Speaker 5 (02:47):
At once, so there'll be different waves.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
And uh, it comes in waves and yeah it's and
then I would I'm I'm happy I do.
Speaker 5 (02:58):
I gotta do what sponsor sponsorship.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
The wet wise for men, you go, Joe, that's that's
what I'm putting.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Them to use.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
I love it.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
I love it.
Speaker 3 (03:13):
And then uh and how long until before before you
you feel normal? Like is there a is it a
couple of days?
Speaker 1 (03:20):
Is it a week?
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (03:22):
How long it's it takes it.
Speaker 4 (03:24):
And if it's a good uh, fourth July, and I'll
not be hydrated, it will take me about.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
A day and I have to feel pretty close to normal.
Speaker 4 (03:31):
Uh and then then and then another another day or
another day and a half uh to get back to
my normal weight. But uh, it takes it takes about
three days to get get pretty close to normal normal.
Speaker 5 (03:44):
But there's different degrees.
Speaker 4 (03:46):
Of and when recovering afterge pushing the body that hard,
definitely takes some time to recover.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
So what's your diet like normally like when you're out
just like during when you're not training for an event,
you just are you doing fast thing like.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Pretty I hate pretty clean and unless I'm unless I
uh I try to once a week, I'm definitely having
uh just I want to say reward days as much
as like, oh, I'm I'm I'm enjoying enjoying food.
Speaker 5 (04:15):
I'm not. I'm not holding back, but I try to
keep a pretty uh pretty pretty strict diet.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Low carb, high protein and uh and and and it
allows it so that I, uh that once a week,
I during the weekends, I'm I can push it with
whatever food I want, whether it's a contest or or
or just pure peer pleasure.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
So do you have a man cave with you've won
like these belts and these awards and all this all
over the country. You have like a big man cave
in your house in Indiana a trophy room or what
do you.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Do with all this stuff?
Speaker 5 (04:47):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
My god, I have Uh so, I have a couple
of boxes I never impact from California, a lot of
my trophies. I have an office with a ton of
my trophies. Uh yeah, so so yeah, kind of spread around.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
I need a man cave. I need to put some
work into that. But it's uh, there's a lot of them.
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Uh and uh yeah, it was, it was.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
It's weird. You don't really I didn't.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Yeah, I didn't know how many contests I did until
I was actually packing up all all the trophies.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, that's so. Yeah, you never know until you move
how much stuff.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
You have, right, Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
It's a pain in the pain the behind there man.
All right, So how many more years you're doing this?
Speaker 7 (05:27):
Joe?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
You said you're thirty eight, right, you're going to be
forty before you know it and all that. So how
many more years do you have in this this?
Speaker 7 (05:34):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I feel.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
I feel good.
Speaker 4 (05:39):
I look at Tom Brady, he's still going to forty three. Uh,
there were forty four now. Yeah, but it's uh, I
need to make sure that I remain healthy, So I
got to keep putting work in it. It'd be nicer
to it'd be nice to start working out little bit
more so that.
Speaker 5 (05:54):
I can that I can.
Speaker 4 (05:57):
There's a couple of things I need to do to
make sure that I can stay healthy and keep pushing it.
But uh, I know I got at least at least
two more years.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah. And then and you're you got the website there
you're selling Is that your sauce?
Speaker 7 (06:08):
Right?
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Your name is that?
Speaker 7 (06:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:10):
That's you. How's that going a people buying the sauce.
Speaker 5 (06:13):
It's fun.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
Yeah, a lot of people buying sauces. Uh, and people
who love to eat. So yeah, we got the coney sauce,
which is like it's kind of like a catchup. It's uh,
it's not not not quite a sweet as a catch up,
a little bit more tang to it. And uh, then
my spicy mustard, which I'm in love with, I'll put
that on.
Speaker 5 (06:32):
Yeah, I love that on hot dogs or anything that. Yeah,
you can't sandwich.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Once you're done physically doing the eating, would you teach
other people how to do it?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
Yeah, I I've definitely, there's definitely been years. I've helped
over the years, uh and helped it, and I enjoy it.
I enjoy seeing them push their bodies to a new
new level. Uh, it's it's a weird kind of Yeah,
I enjoy seeing other people do it. I remember, Yeah,
(07:05):
it's sometimes I'm definitely not against it. I don't think
I don't think there's enough enough of It's not I
don't want to make clear out of that, but I
still love the contest.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Yeah, but you think thirty is about the limit, right?
You said about where you could teach somebody.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
I think I think most Yeah, most people who.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
It's I don't.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
I've I've seen a lot of people who who had
no like natural ability, and through just shew determination, they
were able to get to thirty uh and they ate
like a bird naturally. And then they're doing practices and
some jaw exercises and throat and swallowing exercises and they're
(07:46):
able to work up their capacity.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
So it's uh an ability. So so it's uh anybody
can be trained.
Speaker 1 (07:56):
I am right now running from the mountain. I am running.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
I was in an instant. There was some poutine that
was dropped. I can't talk about it. So let's get
back in to the best of the Fifth Hour with me.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Ben and Danny G.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
I love my suit Gills, Oh man, Lorena's covered in poutine.
Speaker 8 (08:22):
Fell down, Lorena's talk, Oh my god, you killed it
with the knife. Thanks Marcel. I will have some of
the most famous Mallard drops like that one, and some
flashbacks to old overnight shows.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Good morning, Ben, Danny G, Tinder only tips in a
bit of a dry spell. Tinder Guru Danny G is.
Speaker 3 (08:54):
Here to have you have a romantic query and you
are under the age of fifty, and you're not week
you and to gut in thief, give up the call.
All right, let's not waste any time, Danny. People need
your wisdom, your advice. You're out there, you're fighting the
good fight, Danny.
Speaker 9 (09:08):
I am.
Speaker 8 (09:08):
Let's do this. It is officially humped day. That means
it's time for ten d'errony's all right.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Greg in San Antonio writes, and he says, my girlfriend
hasn't been in the mood lately for sex.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
What should I do.
Speaker 8 (09:20):
Get a new girlfriend? No, Greg, you're gonna have to
get her in the mood. Stress and other things in
life obviously put some of us in a bad space.
Sometimes not us, guys, because most of the times that's
how we de stress, but not for most females. So
give her a massage, take her away, get her out
(09:42):
of whatever stress she's around.
Speaker 3 (09:44):
The good thing Danny about that is you doctor Drew.
When he used to do the love line, he would say,
what might might be her birth control or something? You're like, No,
just get her in the movie solid advice.
Speaker 8 (09:53):
From four plays underrated?
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Yeah, all right, on that.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
Note, Robbie on Twitter writes, and he says, I met
a girl on Tinder quite a few good days tender power,
but I still see her on Tinder?
Speaker 1 (10:06):
Should I be concerned? But it doesn't that mean he's
also on Tinder.
Speaker 8 (10:10):
Maybe he's being a creeper just checking up on her. Thought. Yeah,
I've had this happen before, where I've been on maybe
four or five dates with a girl and she'll say,
I see that you're still on tender.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Uh.
Speaker 8 (10:22):
Yeah, because we're not a couple yet. But yeah, so
don't don't trip out on her. I mean, if you
guys get more serious as it goes, then obviously you
need to have a little conversation about where you're at
with your thing. Yeah, because it's not a relationship until
it's a thing, and then once it's the thing, then yeah,
they better get the hell off a tender.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
Yeah, well you're on tender. I'm not on there, but
a periscope.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
We're on a periscope right now, Yes, Eddie on FSR
if you have the periscope app. And Steve writes in
on Twitter he says, I've been dating a pretty hot
twenty year old who likes to play Justin Bieber from
her phone while we're hanging out. How can I change
your playlist? Yeah, well, good luck.
Speaker 8 (11:04):
That's the downside of a hot twenty year old bad
taste in music. So you got a schooler, you got
to coordinate the music.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Bend the Beabs is still a thing.
Speaker 8 (11:13):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because they've been listening to him since
they were what fifteen sixteen, and he's got new music
out right now. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
So well, you know, me and me and Beabes are tight.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Here you are, Well, he touched me, you know he
did sounds personal.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Well, Michael Jackson, it's just a little different schooler.
Speaker 8 (11:32):
On what's some good R and B? What you do,
big band? Get on Pandora or you know one of
the music websites. Play some really good classic soul, some
good classic R and B, and then practice making babies
with her to that music. She'll forget all about Justin Bieber.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Who's the other guy with the Deep Boys. He died
very white, very white, that guy.
Speaker 8 (11:51):
Yeah, some extra pickles on my cheeseburger. Hey, he could
say anything and it sounded cool. What a set of
pipes of very white? He died years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
Here we go, it's TINDERRONI tips Danny g Radio. Frank
writes in from piss up Frank.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yes, hi Frank.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
He says, there's a girl I like, but she's super skinny.
I like women with curves. Am I being superficial? No,
because usually it's the other way around.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I think women would like you to be superficial that way.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
Tell a girl that she needs a few tacos and burritos,
she'll take that as a compliment. But I'm the same way.
I like curves too, I think a lot of guys do.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
But there's become the new thing, right.
Speaker 8 (12:33):
There's nothing wrong with the skinny girl, though, because if
you get into a serious relationship, whether you could bulk her.
Speaker 5 (12:37):
Up, you.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Like a minor league player, you could develop the situation exactly.
I used to work with a guy twenty years ago
in radio, and he his idea of the perfect woman
was like ninety nine pounds.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
You know, it's just ridiculous. I always thought that's even
back then, I thought it's ridiculous.
Speaker 8 (12:57):
Yeah, not every girl's a spinner. So you know, some
some beef on a woman. That's good. That's a good meal.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
You got Eddie's attention. You definitely got Eddie's attention. And
so there's ten year on tips and plug the podcast.
Do you have your own show? Yeah, it's a live
show podcast.
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Go to my twitter at Danny G Radio. You'll see
the link for the four spot and the spot. Yeah,
and I've been promoting the Ben Mallor show on there too.

just the force.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
Now.
Speaker 8 (13:22):
They wouldn't let me use the g spot. I'm not
sure why you just did. What is a drop?
Speaker 1 (13:29):
It's not trigonometry.
Speaker 8 (13:31):
It's when we capture a funny moment, a moment that
really stood out in a show. Usually when a show
would be ending, Ben would say, hey, our one take
that hour two, there was this that could be a drop,
and or just something where we all knew, oh my god,
that's timeless, that's a drop, and nobody had to say anything.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I already was playing it.
Speaker 8 (13:51):
Or something Ben said and we take it out of context,
or it just sounds funny the way he said it.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
I was more concerned about him giving it double fish.
You know.
Speaker 8 (14:01):
I went through the computer system at FSR. I went
back six seven years and found some gems. I hope
you enjoy tossed. That's what you gotta right, That's what.

We have played tag with you for a for a
long time. It's great to have you have you on

Speaker 7 (22:02):
Life's good, life's good. We're up here in the north
Woods in Minnesota playing a lot of golf and a
lot of fishing, and life's good.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Nice. You've done a lot of broadcasting since you left
the coaching world. Have you enjoyed that.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
I've interviewed you in the past and you've you've done
all kinds of different things.
Speaker 8 (22:19):
How do you like being a pundit.
Speaker 7 (22:22):
Well, it's a lot easier, it's and it's great having
all the answers, you know, from that standpoint. You know,
obviously the work I did at Fox and the NFL
Network was great.
Speaker 5 (22:32):
It's fun.
Speaker 7 (22:32):
Enjoyed staying around the game that way. Now I'm just
do a little bit of radio and not not as
involved with it, but it's great to still, you know,
keep up with the league and what's going on.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
So I went to Minnesota for the first time actually
a few months ago. I had not been to Minnesota.
It was a it was amazing. It's so it's so
beautiful there.
Speaker 5 (22:53):
It's it's wild, it's gorgeous.
Speaker 7 (22:55):
And the weather, the weather is just just outstanding, particularly
in the summer when you see so much heat around
the country. Street grew up near the Canadian.
Speaker 5 (23:02):
Border, uh, and it's we just we just love it.
The temperature fabulous.
Speaker 7 (23:06):
Got some great golf up here, just kind of removed
from the hustle and bustle, so we love it up here.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
Yeah, it's great. Actually I went to Duluth as well.
Speaker 9 (23:16):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (23:16):
Yeah, we're about an hour and a half north of Duluth.
Oh wow, and right there on the Lake Supurity. Great area.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yeah, it was, it was, it was. I didn't know
what to expect.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
I've lived in southern California, been to the East coast
a bunch, but I was like really impressed. Uh by Minnesota.
Speaker 4 (23:32):
Have have you?
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Do you live there year round or you?
Speaker 7 (23:34):
I know you?
Speaker 1 (23:35):
Uh no, we're here.
Speaker 7 (23:36):
We're here for summer. So I'm not sure you want
to be up here in February and anywhere. I mean,
it's minus minus forty, minus fifty, so that's uh, that's
only pretty true party Minnesota's Yeah, so we uh we
head back to Columbus, Ohio, where my grandkids are and
during the winter, and then travel a little bit and
get to Florida and Arizona and California and play little
(23:59):
golf in the winter or so. But being up here
from May till about October is just outstanding.
Speaker 1 (24:04):
What's that dynamic like? And there's a great Casey Stango
quote about coaching. You're talking about coaching in baseball and you.
Speaker 3 (24:11):
Have to keep like the five guys that you have,
you know, half the locker room might not like you
have to locker room likes you, and then you have
to keep the other guys kind of you know, on you,
away from the ones that don't like you. What is
it like juggling the personalities in in a locker room
situation and how much of that is reality and how
much of that is you know, it's just hey, it's
a job and guys show up and you don't have
(24:33):
to deal with it.
Speaker 7 (24:34):
Well, it's a larger dynamic than when you look at basketball,
which is very much in that in terms of Okay,
I've got to keep this core of of guys happy,
pointing in the right direction. The red go will go
along your gatekeepers. Baseball, obviously, when you're talking about the
numbers football, you're talking about a much larger dynamic, a
much larger team, more personalities in law. But having said that, yeah,
(24:55):
you're going to have a core of guys that you've
got to make sure that you are on the same page.
We just talked about the Jets, and I'm bringing together
a lot of different personalities, so that's part of it
as well. But the lead dog is clearly Aaron Rodgers.
So clearly, as the head coach, you better be on
the same page as an Aaron Rodgers, Sean McDermott. We
(25:18):
talked about in Buffalo. You better be on the same
page of you know, with the Josh Allen and then
on the defensive side when you have guys like a
von Miller and a Micah Hyde, you know, the guys
that are going to lead your team. Yeah, you better
make sure that your gatekeepers are guys that you're all
on the same page to help the others kind of
(25:38):
follow along, follow the suit.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Yeah, for sure, I'll go back to the quarterbacks. One
of the other interesting stories this year is the Great
Unknown with Brock Purty. This guy was a sensation with
the Niners. Brian, he was amazing and nobody expected anything
of him where he was drafted out of Iowa State.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
He played great, But can he do it again? Brian?
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Like, what is your position on a guy that kind
of comes out of nowhere and then you got to
go back another year and do it again.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
How's this going to work out for brock Purty and
the Niners?
Speaker 6 (26:14):
Hello Brian, Hello Brian, Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello.
Speaker 7 (26:37):
Preach Brian, Billy, I'm not available, Please leave him message,
got a murder.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I gotta go
