"Is anyone actually asking for breast milk-flavored ice cream… or are we just living in a marketing fever dream?"In this hilariously unhinged episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew dives headfirst into one of the most bizarre stories to hit Texas: breast milk ice cream. From Skin’s memories of a Denton keg stand fueled by human milk to Ben’s philosophical musings on hold music, this episode is a rollercoaster of absurdity, nostalgia, and unexpected insight.

(01:26):
local Nirvana cover band Christina Kay Little Baby corn Bread Ray, Hello, Hello.
I saw a story that made me think of our
radio station. Really made me think of the Freak in
a lot of ways. Are the last radio station? Rest
in Peace? I saw this on Dallas, Texas TV. There's
a breast milk flavored ice cream that is now available

(01:48):
in Texas. It's made by a company called Frida. Look
at the sky, Frida rest in Peace again and it's
breast milk ice cream. And I thought of the Freak
because we were at that cool bar in Denton, what's
that called east Side? East Side had a great time
out there. We were doing remotes out there and Cavanaugh,

(02:10):
how many people drink breast milk?

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Julie?

Speaker 4 (02:12):
I did?

Speaker 3 (02:13):
You?

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Did me?

Speaker 2 (02:14):
Cavanaugh?

Speaker 1 (02:15):
Julie?

Speaker 2 (02:15):
And Reiners?

Speaker 5 (02:18):
Yeah. I mean that day it was crazy that there
was that much breast milk available for everybody to do
keg stands on it. Oh there was, I mean taps
just lined up on a table, just a bunch of
ladies setting them down. Well what they they had to
get on their knees so that they could the tap
on the table. Yeah, and man, I went vertical on

(02:38):
the keg. I just I can't imagine that that tastes good.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
I mean, it's human milk.

Speaker 5 (02:46):
And I don't know that there's any clamoring out there
to get an ice cream that tastes like that. And
so I'm wondering, is this just a marketing ploy? Is
this a stunt? And can you survive a stunt? Let's
say that, say we want to do this, we want
to have breast flavored beer or whatever.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Can you like this?

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Look we Dallas TXTA TV did a story on us.
People now know about our brand. But then moving forward,
like if they ever have another ice cream flavor and me,
I'm thinking it's booby ice.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh okay, you know, I'm like, no, matter what.

Speaker 5 (03:19):
They could come out with chocolate mint and I'm like, oh,
it's breast milk chocolate mint.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
I like the idea that you suggested a second ago
of just breast flavored beer. Oh yeah, Albert, Yeah, breast
flavored beer. I would drink that right every time I'm
sitting at the bar.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
I just I don't. I don't who's asking for this.
Nobody's asking for this?

Speaker 1 (03:41):
Right?

Speaker 2 (03:42):
What did it taste like? It just tasted like maybe
a little bit like almond milk chalk. Yeah, and it
wasn't it was see, it wasn't.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
It was good.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
I mean, well hold on, hold on, let me let
me change the word good. It was fine.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
It wasn't sweet at all.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
It was it was a tiny bit.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Sweetly, but it wasn't something I'd be like, oh, I'm
going to drink this again. It was like, man, there's
nothing wrong with this. But usually if I drink just milk,
cow milk, I want it cold. And this was not cold,
you know, So it wasn't. It wasn't like it had
been microwaved. It was ninety eight point seven.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
It was just.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
And it wasn't particularly sour or anything. Was it thin
or thick? And was it chunky? Yeah, okay, I think
it was. It was thick. It was thinner than like
cow milk was.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
Are people still drinking milk, just regular milk? What that
doesn't happen often? Right?

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Yes? People were drinking milk straight, not like's grey weather
as they're walking down the street. But yeah, people drink
milk my kind of glass with some chips and hoy
cookies the other night. Let's go respect.

Speaker 5 (04:56):
So you've gone after h ellen, Yeah, you after Beyonce
Taylor Swift. And now you're going after big milk.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Big milk, big milk, milk drinkers own after big milk, milk,
big breast milk, just milk drinker.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
That sounds like such an old man to type thing
that I don't think kids are having a glass of
milk drink whatever their parents putting in front of them.
Chocolate milk for sure, but you're talking about regular milk.

Speaker 4 (05:22):
I mean, I don't hang out with three year olds often,
but I'm assuming that it's just like it's always been,
you know, the last.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Three hundred years. Everyone puts milk in front of them
and they drink it.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
I would advise you, Kevin, not to show up without
a child at a playground and find out what kids
are drinking.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Actually, playground is warning. Okay.

Speaker 5 (05:39):
Another thing caught my attention, and I love hold music.
It always cracks me up. It's usually the worst music ever.
It's probably made in some terrible sound you know, music
library or whatever.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
It's just so generic.

Speaker 5 (05:53):
But you know, there's been times we've been doing bits
and where I'm on hold and I like to make
up songs. I do that, whether we're recording it or
not make up songs, sing songs, come up with choruses
and stuff like that. To music that's you know, while
you're listening to while you're on hold with some company,
and the number one song out there. I was looking
at this earlier. I guess it's called Opus. H Do

(06:16):
you guys know? Do you guys know about this Opus
number one?

Speaker 1 (06:20):
I don't know that.

Speaker 5 (06:21):
The guy's name is Tim Carlton who created it. He
composed it in the eighties or okay, no, I'm sorry.
He used an eighties drum machine. But it's gained notoriety
because of its frequent use, Like it's all over the place.
So I guess Cisco is a parent company and they
must own a million other companies, and so they use
it all the time.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
And so actually on banks and health insurance.

Speaker 5 (06:43):
Yeah, if you look up what is the most used
hold music, it'll say Cisco Music hold tune Opus one.
And I don't really know much more about it other
than that, but you know, like when you hear it,
you'll recognize it. And so kat am I to understand
this correct that a band was opening up for Coldplay,
and while everyone was waiting, they decided to just start

(07:04):
playing the song.

Speaker 1 (07:05):
I think it was warming up for Oasis.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
Okay Oasis.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Yeah, so this is at Wimbley and this's before their opener,
like is Richard Ashcroft I think opened and then Oasis played.
So before that some band called Breaky Box and here's
what they sound like.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
I already knew it.

Speaker 4 (07:27):
You can also tell a lot of times on synthesizer
sounds the era in which it was made, because that sound,
that high part that was so prominent in the eighties.
You heard I'm like ya, it was used on shat Day.
I couldn't tell you what synthesizer created it, but it's
that sound was everywhere.

Speaker 5 (07:50):
You sit there in your own hole. Then you just
kind of get lost in the music a little bit.
It's like taking you on a deep emotional journey and
then like, kay, can I help you? You're like, oh god,
it's just like get a massage. I'm so comfortable, I
was about to fall asleep, jarring that you actually want
to talk to me now.

Speaker 4 (08:06):
And it's also it doesn't have to be like some
sonically great thing and why they can use old drum
machines whatever, because if you think about the environment with
which you hear it, you're never gonna hear it with subs.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Yeah, you're never gonna hear it on good speakers. You're
gonna hear it over a phone.

Speaker 4 (08:21):
Right.

Speaker 5 (08:21):
So, here is a pack stadium getting ready to see Oasis,
and these dudes just start jamming.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
Dude, and they did that?

Speaker 2 (08:28):
How you come breaky boy?

Speaker 5 (08:31):
Sorry?

Speaker 4 (08:31):
So good?

Speaker 1 (08:32):
All right, there you have it.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
We are off and running.

Speaker 5 (08:36):
We end the show today talking about a huge beef
that is going on between a former employee and a
former employer, and it's raised the question, have you ever
wanted to fight your boss? Are you willing to actually
set up a fight with your old boss? We'll go
around the beef. Coming up at five thirty, we got
cuss in the Cowboys, the latest from Cowboys camp at

(08:56):
at five at four o'clock, and around the sports. Is
it okay to wear your hat anyway you want to?
We got a rattlesnake attack. We got so much more.
But coming up next where you gonna take us in things?
Skin is tracking man.

Speaker 4 (09:07):
The New York Post has an article that's coming after
my people, and I'm very upset about it.
