"If your city told you to stop flushing your toilet… what would you do?"In this hilariously unfiltered episode of The Ben and Skin Show, the crew dives headfirst into the bizarre and very real sewage crisis rocking Rowlett, Texas. With Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray at the helm, no toilet pun is left unflushed as they unpack the absurdity of a citywide plumbing disaster that has residents asking the unthinkable: “Where do we go now?”From KT’s deadpan delivery of the news—“Stop flushing toilets, showering, or doing laundry”—to Ben’s satirical emergency plan involving flaming paper bags and neighborly sabotage, the team turns a civic nightmare into comedic gold.Memorable Moments Include:
- 🧻 “Do you have to drive over to Rockwall to take an s—?” – Skin, asking the hard-hitting questions.

wine selection. It's at Preston and Plano Parkway. It's Andrew's

Speaker 3 (00:40):
And now it's time for Benson's weekday Up Day, featuring
veteran news anchor kt fon tweets. Here are the important
stories he's currently tracking from.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Around the world.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
City of Rault is having some problems this weekend. Guys.
Let's go to Channel eight for the latest Ian story.
Speaker 5 (01:02):
A sewage line in ral Lead has collapsed again. The
city is urging residents and the highlighted areas to stop
flushing toilets, showering or bathing, doing laundry, cleaning, dishes, or
anything that sends water to the sewer system. They add
the water is safe to drink. Cruise were oute last
night making emergency repairs to the sewer main and thought
(01:24):
they had fixed it, but the main further collapsed tonight.
Official say Cruise are actively working to fix it.
Speaker 6 (01:30):
Oh man, man, I was just thinking you could play
stop flushing toilets.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
This thing's big, big, big dude. The uh this happened
yesterday again.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
Yesterday they told the residents to stop doing that as well,
don't flush, and we got it repaired. We're good. And
then there's another hole in sewer main.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Do you have to drive over to rockwall to take
an ass? I don't know what the story goes. What
do you do?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
I have no idea and I don't feel like proper
guidance is given.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
No, I mean, it's totally was.
Speaker 6 (02:06):
You have one choice. Go in a paper bag, light
it on fire, put it on your neighbor's port. That's fair.
Knock on the door, that's fair. Then go around to
the back door, bang on that door. So while they're
putting out the fire and stomping it out and getting
pool on their shoes. Then they run back through the
house to get to the back door. Okay, then go
back around to the front.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
Do it again? Are you quoting Cynthia Izagara here?
Speaker 6 (02:28):
Is that what she instructed everyone to do during that
news clip?
Speaker 4 (02:32):
And I'm not I didn't pull you know, Fox four
or NBC five or CBS eleven, But I do think
someone is responsible to tell the people what to actually.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Do, just like Ben just did. Ben's doing his job.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
He's holding up his good job back and like a
journalism spectrum, but we do kind of need some instructions
on this if you're living in the zone.
Speaker 6 (02:53):
Do you know who needs you know, who needs to
deliver those instructions? Someone that has a wide reach. Jane
Sleigh from Roulette.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
I feel like she's the one that needs to take
over the situation and tell everyone where they need to pooh. So,
like ninety percent of her followers are just looking for
some pickings news and they're like, wait, what what is
she tweeting about?
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Hi, I'm Jane Slater.
Speaker 6 (03:14):
If you're wondering where to poop in Ralet this weekend,
here's my advice to you.
Speaker 4 (03:19):
Okay, so bad news for for for leadership in Roulet.
Back in December, their twenty five year old mayors step
down old Blake Margolis. But we've got Jowel Buzzy twenty five.
Let's go now, Jeff wing It's the new mayor. Just
wing it with me, Jeff wing Ittt.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
No, Well, you don't want a guy who's gonna wing it.
You vote for wing It and your whole sewer system
will fall apart.
Speaker 4 (03:42):
I mean, what do you what do you do? Should
we call wing it? I mean call wing it?
Speaker 1 (03:45):
Yeah, just wing it, call wing it.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
I feel like if you're in that zone, you're pooping
in a bucket, like Kelly Clarkson did during the middle
of that concert at one time.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
Yeah, didn't you?
Speaker 6 (03:57):
Didn't you watch that movie where old Gal from Farga
pooped in a bucket the whole time.
Speaker 1 (04:01):
No mad Land.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Yeah, oh that was a struggle and that was not
even the worst one that I got that year.
Speaker 6 (04:07):
There's a great bucket poop scene in Role Models? Can
you remember that?
Speaker 1 (04:12):
I don't think of a great bucket poop. Oh it's great.
They're at a campfire. Would you do that this week?
Would you rank the bucket poop? The guy is sitting there.
Speaker 6 (04:21):
Reading a newspaper while he's taking a dump into a bucket,
and he goes, Hey, we're gonna be by the campfire
telling stories later. Oh is that where they're wait, what
song is it? Is it a Paul McCartney song or
something that he's playing.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
To the streets. They're arguing about what band it was.
Speaker 6 (04:41):
He goes classic story of a guy passed out naked
next to a campfire, Ta me Down, Love, Take Me Down,
Take me down to the streets. And they were arguing
about what band they're arguing. Weren't they arguing about that
not being a well known song? Well, there were the
artists who the artist was, and somebody was insisting it
was an artist, and somebody said no, that's not their song.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
And then later somebody else is.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Like, yeah, Carney, yeah, yeah, yeah, I feel like I
could play it for us right now, but it's not previewed,
and there's a high F bomb risk?
Speaker 1 (05:09):
What risk? Dangerously? This is dangerous. This is the guy
that dropped an F bomb last week.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Yeah, hey man, I've done some rehab on that and
feel better about it.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Okay, here we go. Let's get this in role models.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Martin Gary, I can always spot a moody.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
It's my fifth year with Wings. I guess Paul McCartney's got.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Nothing on me.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Huh, Hell, take me down to the streets.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
It's not a Wings song.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
Yeah, that's one of.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
Their hits from the seventies.
Speaker 6 (05:41):
I'm not sure which one it's not.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
It's not It isn't.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
No, I think it might be that's not.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Nobody sings that song.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
I don't know about it. Nobody.
Speaker 6 (05:53):
Oh that is the way to end a segment, isn't it.
