“If you’re stranded in the jungle, would you rather come across a wild bear—or a man?”That question sparks a hilariously honest and deeply insightful conversation in this episode of The Ben and Skin Show, where Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray tackle one of the most important—and absurd—topics of the day: safety, gender dynamics, and punching bears in the wiener.

Speaker 1 (00:05):
When it comes to the news, he gotta be extra

Speaker 3 (00:23):
Uber's gonna let women drivers and riders request to avoid
being paired with men starting next month.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Oh men drivers, huh, men drivers?
Speaker 3 (00:35):
Oh, women riders or drivers.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Oh, because you can combine ride share. Oh, I forgot
about that.
Speaker 4 (00:41):
So it's it's meant to make it to where I
a woman is a passenger, she doesn't have to have
a mail driver. And if a woman is a driver,
she doesn't have to have a male passenger.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, so she's not threatened. Yep, because it's the old thing.
And I heard this on the Woody Show long ago,
and it was the old thing of would you rather
if you're straight in on island or in the jungle,
come across a wild bear or a man?
Speaker 2 (01:06):
Most people said a bear. Most people set a bear.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
Yeah, it's easy to interact. It's easier to not interact
with a bear. Oh no, you know, the man's like, hey,
what are you doing over there?
Speaker 4 (01:18):
And the bears, But once the bear gets the taste
of human flesh and it's razor sharp teeth. It yearns
for nothing else, but still rather have.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
It yurns for nothing else.
Speaker 3 (01:30):
I'll just I haven't too much paid much attention to
I guess bears in the wildlife. But the man has
a clear area that it would be a shot of
weakness if you needed to defend yourself. And it's the
nose there you break the note. But it's also the genitals.
Whereas does the bear have a little nuts? Can you
(01:52):
imagine punching a bear in the winger in him going?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I'm sure that in the Cocaine Bear movie, Yeah, I
love bet Cocaine vers. Pretty good movie, actually is it?
Speaker 4 (02:04):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
God is? I hope. So there's a good depeche.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Mode soundtrack to the whole movie. The whole movie is
depeche Mode, the whole movie, but there's some good parts.
Has got some depeche Mode. It's very bloody though. Yeah,
I fell asleep once.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
That's good.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
How many times did the Narcoleptic fall asleep? That's the
scale to judge a movie? I would like an uber
statement to be more clear.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Though.
Speaker 3 (02:26):
You know these companies, they they just they they fog
up their their statements on these things they do fog
and I would rather them say we want women to
be safe and this is just another way to protect
our customers.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
All right.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
Here is what Camielle Irving, the Uber vice president, says.
It's about giving women more choice, more control when they
ride and drive.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
I will say, I don't like taking an Uber by
myself because I don't know if it's going to be
a man driver or not. And I've never had anything
bad happen to me. It's just that mindset as a
woman that you have. Like even I'll do morning walks
usually I have two dogs with me, but it's too
hot to take my dogs now. So I went just
this morning by myself and I turn a corner and
(03:13):
I kind of get scared a minute.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
You know.
Speaker 5 (03:14):
It's like you got to be aware of your surroundings
at all times, especially if I don't have two dogs
guarding me. Even Mike tells me that he's like, I'd
rather you not walk by yourself in Oakcliffe, Christina.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
But it's just.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
Yeah, it's just being a woman. You have to be
always aware. Well, why does he walk with you because
he's sleeping.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
I would rather not.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Walk the dogs.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
No, he loves it when I take the dogs.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Yeah, I would rather you drive to Holland Park and
walk the dogs.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
It's a it does suck.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
That there's that fear and there's that feeling and you know,
you're talking about uber here and their statement. They're trying
to craft their statement in a way to where they
don't become the topic of like a Jason Whitlock show,
you know. So it's just like everyone's just all protecting
their junk at all times. It's just the environment.
Speaker 3 (04:06):
So if you've made if you're one of the creators
of uber or lyft, like just because of the way
the world is something bad. There's been multiple stories, but
it's not like they're prevalent, but there's multiple stories of
awful things happening, Right, an unhinged uber driver, you know whatever.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Right, there's been a couple.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
Do you live with any of that in your mind?
I mean not thinking about that With TV shows like
The Breaking Bad Guys when they acidize a death that
happened to Sopranos too. When we see stories someone murdered
someone and they use bleach and acidizes as the body,
do you think did I contribute at all? To that.
I mean, you know you can't think that way, But
I just wonder, what are you mean asking? Well, I'm
saying these bad things have happened via these ride share apps.
(04:50):
If you're a creator or co creator of one of
those companies, do you ever go, man that I wouldn't
have been a part of three or four murders, or
how hover many the number is, if I would like
I do.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
I don't think about it. I don't think get your job.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
But no, I don't think it's a byproduct of the creation.
I think it's a byproduct of society and access.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
I mean, you see how it's hard for me to
relate because the only time I've ever killed someone is
wh I cracked so many great jokes that they just
drove off the.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Road, Right, that happens? That equivalent. Ben's got to follow up,
Huh when did that happen? Let's just say the blood's
on my hands. I don't know the day, all right,
bloody Hans Turner.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
All right?
Speaker 4 (05:32):
Coming up next, the only segment of the day that
will not be podcasts that you must listen live. That's
less than three minutes away, a little over three minutes away.
