What happens when a neighborhood photo turns into a full-blown musical legend? In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew takes a wild ride through nostalgia, neighborhood lore, and the awkwardness of repeated park encounters. As the team fires up the Wayback Machine, they celebrate the five-year anniversary of a true North Texas cult classic: “The King of Light Farms” by the mysterious Light Farms Giant—a listener-turned-legend who transformed a casual photo into a full-blown musical saga.Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina “Little Baby Cornbread” Ray reflect on the bizarre brilliance of 2020, the year that gave us AI anxiety, pandemic weirdness, and a surprise pop banger from a fictional suburban giant. This episode is a perfect blend of absurdity, nostalgia, and genuine chemistry between four friends who know how to keep listeners laughing while reflecting on the weirdness of modern life.

Man, look at the four o'clock hour.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
There's a lot of fun to get to, including KT's
latest truck fetish.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
But right now it's time for this.
Speaker 3 (00:17):
It's time to go into the schedule.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Worrybut it's ever weird. You guys out that were almost
halfway through the year. Yes, it's June fifth's right, taken
right along here flying and after this year we'll be
halfway through the decade. This decade started off kind of weird.
You know what, dude, Ai, that's not a good addition.
(00:40):
I would say it's weirder that it was like seventy
degrees when I woke up this morning and it's June.
That was pretty nice, wasn't it?
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Had him drinking coffee outside Lett Mosquitos.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
Just eat me alive.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
It's been awesome. Like all these idiots that are out
there worried about the climate have been so wrong.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
I know, right, it's.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
Only getting better. Love the weather. Don't try anything is
see what happens. I'm going for a walk of the
park today and had the awkward thing you know, when
you go around after you pass them about the fourth
time because you make an eye contact every time. But
you're like, you know what, I kind of think I'm
gonna wrap my walk up, so I'm gonna walk a
(01:16):
little faster to end it so I don't have to
pass them one more time because we're still wave every time. Wait,
are you on a track for where you're a park
sidewalk all the way around the park? Okay?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Right?
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Are they walk in the opposite direction? Yeah, you're passing
each other, you know, multiple times, and they always wave,
so I'm always, you know.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Every single time. They wait every time. God, and they're
the sweetest people. Do you know what? You know, it'll
stop that the next time you you come running around
have your dog flopping out.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Man, every time I have any small talk interaction with
anyone around my kids, they're so humiliated.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
They're like, I don't understand, Like why did you have
to speak to I'm like, we're me too, dude. I mean, Jesus,
this is this guy doing He's asking this guy in
traffic what's going on with this car? You know what?
It led to? Something good? Yeah, let's go into the
Rangers locker room to get at you. Well, you slept in.
(02:16):
I never went in. We had to go hang out
with Charlie Pride. Hey, man, got to go hang out
with Charlie Pride. Pride Night. The Rangers will have, yeah, man,
they have.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
A Rest in Peace Pride Night. What if Ray Davis
is like, I know what we'll do and the month
that Jude will have Charlie Pride Month, we'll show them
No Kay's.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
At the ballpark. So the reason I started on this
was a twenty twenty was a wild time, and it
was the year that a local artist was just sending
out all kinds of bangers. And today is the five
year anniversary of the release of what I I think
is the number one song by the light Farms Giant.
Oh nice. The song's called The King of Light Farms.
(03:08):
I don't know how much more setting up I.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Should do here, just quickly, if you didn't know, I
took a picture with a buddy of mine in my
neighborhood in light Farms. There was like twenty people in
this picture, a bunch of families at the house, and
one guy was so big that skin was like, oh
my god, you have a giant in your neighborhood. Nice
from Georgia He's amazing. And then pretty soon we started
getting songs sent in by the Light Farms Giant. We
(03:31):
didn't even know where they were coming from, but they
sound exactly like my friend.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
He just basically we turned the picture the person into
the picture. We turned it into a character, and then
the character took on a life of its own when
a listener started creating songs as the Light Farms Giant
and sending them in.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Here's the King of light Farms, in my opinion, the
number one song from the lat Farm's Giant.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Your wife keeps texting me crazy Lane when you squad
fun My giant fingers can barely die, but might depicts
in portrait mo Delivered to the High. When you think
she's only scrolling through her.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
Ig and tea, she's meaning some kind of freaky from me,
the way protection and the sacle when I'm keeping these
every pregnancy and life unch is a baby lf G.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
You've only have to look at the thing to get
pregnant from me.
Speaker 2 (04:33):
The neighborhood has come up so far.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
From the windows, through the wild, through the moon and stars.
I'm the reason there's a garden open every or on
the ledg.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
I'm the King of light Fall.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
Gegacy is the best. He's the one true star from
the LFG. I'm the King of light Farms Wall the
g Damn bar fg.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
I'm McKee.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Incredible. Man, God, I forgot how good that was. Yeah, man,
it's like it. I mean, a great pop banger. And
we're here in June fifth. We don't have a song
of the Summer yet. Like usually there's a runaway contender
that's released in April and May that will end up
being the song of the summer. We don't have that yet,
you know. Uh so I'm that one was the clear
(05:33):
one in twenty twenty, and it'd be nice if someone
else would released a nice pop banger or rock banger
for the song of Summer.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
I think it's amazing. And you know, now that Selena
Gomez is with Benny Blanco, maybe they're in the running
to deliver something like that.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
I mean they're not. Oh what if they covered it though?
I think Sabraina Carpenter's dropping a song tomorrow that would
probably be the one she was last year. Yep, she
had the song of the Summer last year. All right,
there you have. It's been it's getting way back machine.
Shout out to the light Farm's giant.
