Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number three. A generational divide
In our three here, Kenny Smith, beloved commentator hawking a
book says that Michael Jordan would have struggled in the
social media era. Are you in or out on that take?
(00:21):
And how would Jordan have handled the modern technology which
was not around when he played for the Bulls in
his NBA career And what would have been the hardest
thing for Jordan to handle in this new wacky world
we're living in. We'll talk about that and more right
now here. It is our number three Walking on air.
(00:42):
Wel come, in the beginning of another hour of the
Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
We are in the air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
We crowd around and protect the motherboard coach, the coach
sport of the border, hand beyond on the mast and
considerably powerful microphones of fsre ammnating live from the ride,
the bumpy Ride on the rocky Road. We are broadcasting
(01:15):
live from the tyraq dot com studios. Tyraq dot com

free road hazard protection and over ten thousand It's a
lot recommended in star Wars tyraq dot com. The way
tirebind shitb and so our lead this hour coming from
(01:37):
the way back machine. I saw this and cut my attention.
Changed it up a little bit this hour. It does
involve basketball, but it's old school basketball. So how would
a legend of a previous generation deal with the modern
headaches of today? Specifically Michael Jordan say what now? This
(02:04):
came up in conversation on Undisputed and it was directed
to me. I was sleeping when Undisputed was on, but
Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharp had Kenny Smith on.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I guess he's pimping some book.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
He's he wrote a book, and you gotta promote the
book or us you won't sell the book. And I'd
like to write a book, I'd promote the book. But anyway,
Kenny Smith was yapping about Michael Jordan because Shannon Sharp
and Skip Bayless liked to talk about what they like
to talk about, the Lakers, the Cowboys. They like to
talk about Lebron James, Michael Jordan, and a few like
(02:40):
two other things. Tom Brady, Tom Brady, Yeah, Tom Brady
olls somebody. Kenny Smith was on there promoting his book
and he was asked about Michael Jordan and how would
Jordan have faired during the social media era that we're
in now. Course, Jordan played when that stuff did not exist.
It was a different world when Jordan was playing for
the Bulls and the Washington Bullets slash Wizards. So anyways,
(03:04):
asked about that and the NBA on TNT analyst said
he thinks that Michael Jordan would not have done well,
say what now, just to prove that I am not
making this up, as Warner Wolfe said back in his day,
let's go to the audio tape.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
It would have been too much because think about how
everybody in the.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
World knew about him.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You know, he was like our version of musically Michael Jackson,
like around the world everybody. He was the most recognizable
person in the world. And I don't know if social media.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It would have been too.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Much because it was almost too much, and it was
no social media and all you saw was Michael everywhere
like and but you think about it. You know, newspapers
was our social media. Everyone had a newspaper back then,
so you know, you going from New York, you go
on a subway, every business person, every person had a
newspaper in their hands. So we did have the device.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
It was just archaic.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, Kenny loves to say he's from New York, doesn't he?
I think I don't know if he still does. But
he lived in LA for a long time. I think
he still lives in LA. But people from New York
love to say they're from New York? Right is that from?
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
It's weird.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
It's an odd thing anyway. So let us discuss the question.
You heard Kenny Smith there say it would be too much.
Too much, says Michael Jordan. Social media would have been
too much. He would have struggled in the social media
area era. Are you in or out on that? Are
you in or out on Michael Jordan's struggling in the
social media era? So I am out on that.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I'm not in. I'm not in agreement. I am out.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
I've got Lozenge, delegation and freestyle skiing, and we will
connect all of these things together now and we're gonna
make We are gonna make a nice book, a nice
book that Kenny Smith is trying to get you to
buy good luck as he's talking about old tech knowology
(05:00):
and things like that. So, first of all, Kenny Smith
is wonderful on television.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Nope, bots.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
He's wondering I love him and Charles Barkley should kiss
Kenny Smith, asked, because without Kenny Smith, Barkley would not
be who he is, the yind of the Yang. Nobody
talks about Kenny Smith. They always talk about Charles Barkley, this,
that and the other thing. But Kenny Smith is the
ultimate setup guy with Ernie Johnson and those guys on TNT.
But this is a misfire. This is a misfire that
(05:27):
take bazooka misfired on this one. Michael Jordan would have
absolutely figured things out. I will gather out tate. Now,
social media is an interesting animal in the modern world.
It's preposterous to say that Jordan would have drowned in
this environment. However, there's an easy solution for Michael Jordan
(05:49):
and anyone else who wants.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
To deal with the modern world that we're living in.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
If you take if you go into the medicine cabinet
and you tends with lozenges, you pick right wish losenge.
If you take the red one, you stay in Wonderland,
as the line goes from the matrix. But if you
take the blue losage, the one that's blue like a pill,
but it's a losage.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Then the social media, the carnival, all that comes to
an end and it will distort and all that and
funhouse of mirrors simply avoided. You don't have to visit
the apps, you don't have to have them on their phone.
You're not gonna die, You're not gonna miss anything. There
are other ways to get information and out of sight,
(06:35):
out of mind.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Secondly, look our guy Roberto, by the way, he hasn't
been on Twitter.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Has his life gone in the toilet? No?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Right, your life is fine. You've been off Twitter for
months and you're still living your life. You haven't picked
up any illnesses or anything like that, and your family
doesn't hate you now, and you still have to go
go to work. You still I mean to change anything now. Secondly,
how would Michael Jordan have handled social media? Well, we
(07:06):
don't know what we don't know, but being a distant
relative of Nostradamus and friend of Nostrudemus, we can look
into the crystal ball. So Jordan would have followed the
best selling self help book by Tom Brady, A Complete
Idiot's Guide to Social Media. The word is delegation, and
(07:27):
that is the secret sauce that TB twelve mastered the
Instruction Manual of Tom Brady because Brady as a the
guy's he started in the NFL before social media, and
while he was playing it became a big deal and
all that.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Or Brady rather wasn't on there for a.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Lot of it, but he's kind of navigated the instruction
manual the Complete Idiot's Guide to social Media. So what
Brady does is he has a team of social media
nerds who manage his online persona. They cook up slick
video and images and little cartoon drawings, and people are mesmerized.
They think it's actually him. Michael Jordan could have easily
(08:08):
done the same thing and still could do the same
thing that Nike social media managers can paignstakingly write the
tweets and schedule them in advance, and this is what
powerful people do, and stars and corporations and all that.
Ninety five percent of the unwashed on those apps have
(08:32):
no idea that the people they're talking to are someone
who went to college to study social media and tech,
or they're a pr person. They're not the actual celebrity
you think you're sending the messages. Most of the celebrities
are not actually on their partaking and all that, whether
or not they just don't have time or they don't
want to play with live hand grenades and get canceled
(08:53):
and all that, and so they use stunt doubles, if
you will. They use stunt doubles there and let the
flunkies underneath them who they pay.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
A pittance figure it out.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Now, final thought, what would have been the hardest part
for Michael Jordan and the social media? So it's not
the content, because Michael Jordan could have had someone put
content up, that part of it would not have been
an issue. The big problem for Jordan And I know
from back in the day when I was starting out
(09:26):
in radio and Jordan was playing for the Bulls, and
I would go to these games and people would gossip
about stuff that Jordan was doing with porn stars and whatnot,
and there were all kinds of wild stories and nobody
had any confirmation. I have any confirmation all that stuff.
But I would say the hardest thing would be keep
your double life under wraps. Because Jordan, he had a
(09:47):
system of bodyguards and handlers. When the Bulls traveling circus
would roll into town, Jordan would either not stay with
the team, or he'd have his own floor at a hotel.
If you at the rich Carlton and they have a
floor where you have to have your special key to
get up to and it's only for the very special
(10:08):
elevator at some of the hotels. Jordan was say, but
so you had this whole thing, and he'd stroll out
of the hotels through kitchens and service entrances and fire escapes,
dodging paparazzo. That is one animal. Dodging the paparazzo is
one animal. But here's the other. It's a whole different
battlefield in social media. So I think Jordan will be
(10:28):
all right. He'd be able to stay off those things
and ignore a lot of the noise, although he did
get upset with some sports writers who were writing in
these things called newspapers back in the day. So he'd
like to be annoyed by somebody. He couldn't completely avoid it.
But social media now, if you're a celebrity, it's like
it's freestyle skiing compared.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
To the way it used to be.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
There's more flips and there's more twists, and the degree
of difficulty goes up, and so you know, that's the problem, right,
and you get a higher score based on the jump.
Everyone's got the video cameras we all know and ready
to document the dalliances of Michael Jordan and whatnot. And
(11:09):
so you're talking about thousands of wanna be TMZ field
reporters who are just waiting to call the tip line
and get paid by Harvey Levin as long as they
don't send in a photo of the wrong coach and
it gets posted on the website, because that would be unfortunate.
Shout out Dean Smith. We talked about that earlier in
(11:32):
Denny Crumb.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
But it be all right.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
As the line goes, just about everything in life is relative,
and new tech is better in some ways, it's worse
than others, but everything is relative. It is the Bent
Mather Show, and if you'd like to comment on that
or anything else. The NBA playoff games, the Western Conference
game went to the Nuggets in a route or root
(11:56):
as they went gamebusters in the third quarter, and the
Philadelphia seventy six ers in Boston emasculating Jason Tatum and
the Celtics. What a pathetic performance by the Celtics as
they lose on the home court and now are on
the brink of elimination, and the Suns are on the
brink of elimination in the West. Eight seven, seven ninety

We'll take some calls also, we have too much or
not enough later in the hour straight ahead the Mallord
Riddle of the day. And here it is, we go
back to the big mistake, the hoo goofed I've got
to know moment. So ESPN and NHL officials are blaming
(12:39):
Blank for the clear and obvious screw up which made
it seem like the NHL Draft lottery was rigged. Again,
NHL and ESPN officials are blaming Blank for the NHL
Draft lottery looking like it was rigged. That is the
Mallard Riddle of the day.
Speaker 2 (13:00):

is what it was.

The Tiger's got a big one too, I think, although.

He's not on Twitter anymore because he's protesting, wants Dave
Roberts to be fired. I don't think that's gonna happen
anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
He will be fired at some point this point, but
we might not be alive, but we'll go ahead and get.

Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
A Mallard monologue.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Kenny Smith and Jordan would have it would have been
too much social media.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I disagree. Talked about that and we'll take your calls.
Coming up.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Here's the Mallard Riddle of the day, ESPN and NHL
officials are blaming blank for the NHL draft lottery appearing
to be fixed, appearing.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
To be rigged.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Very very awkward situation and it wow. Anyway, this does
anyone know the answer? Page down? Ferg Dog says they
are blaming wrong button, Bob. He did it again?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
He did it?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That sounds that wrong button, Bob Garrett makes sense to us.
We have late night drug tester Missus O'Leary's cow. Yes,
the great fires started because of that. Who else do
we have in Chicago? Appropriately enough? Milkman Mike in Colorado says,
the dominion voting systems is the answer. Bengal fan Bryan says,
(15:13):
way too much self gratification is the problem. Just josh
As the Four Letter Network and the NHL blame Eddie Garcia,
and in his rebuttal, Eddie said, puck him is what
he had to say.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Kirby says, the only person to blame is Pat Trick,
You knowing, who else.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Do we have?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
The Grill sergeant says the blame they blame Eddie Garcia
and the Puck the World podcast. They blame as Eddie
has managed to hijack my timeline with his fans. Who
else out the alien o piners going with social media
as the problem. Donkey Sausage says, weighted down ping pong balls.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Can't read that. We'll skip over that.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
There a lot of people saying your name it everyone's
picking you is the reason that the lottery went haywire
courtesy Flusher's going with a power outage. Mike says, the
gremlins attack. Yes, I don't know why the gremlins have
an attacked. I'm in the home studio right now, the
gremlins having attacked me right now. I don't understand why
Chip and the Cues is going with the COVID nineteen
(16:24):
strain that that's the problem. Areek in Minnesota is filing
a formal protest. He says, three straight pro bouncy ball monologues.
He says he's going to boycott the meet and greet
now as he result, Okay, calm down, buckeroo Eddie. Do
you have an answer to the Malard riddle of the day.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
He's an obvious answer. It's Gary, Gary Batman.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Is that the answer?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
The Four Letter Network and NHL officials are blaming teleprompter
production error as to why there was a mistake at
the draft lottery.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I actually think that's true.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
You're saying that Kevin Weeks just reads off the teleprompter
exactly what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Exactly what I'm saying is.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
A Ron Burgundy moment. Yes, go after yourself, Sandy, I go.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
That is, go after yourself, Anaheim Duck and that's ah,
that is that is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
That would be great.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
So they told Kevin, Hey, Kevin, we're gonna have you
do the lottery, but just read whatever's on the prompter.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And he did.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
Common sense would dictate, don't reveal.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
We're about to reveal.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Did He also say, I don't know if you know this,
but I'm kind of a big deal, just like Ron Burgundy.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Full he didn't go that far.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
He's a very nice guy. He does a pretty good job,
but he totally screwed that.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah, I met him.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
I don't know him, but I met him briefly in
my very brief television career, and he was a very
nice guy. But he was working he was double dipping
at the NBC Sports Network and working in Toronto at
the NHL Network. So he had a couple of things
going on. Let's go to the phones and we'll say
hello to Eddie. Let's say if Eddie's still there, he's
in Charlotte. He's the guy he likes.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Well, no, not you. This is a different Eddie. This
is the Eddie and Charlotte.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
See.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
This is hello Eddie. Hey, hey Eddie.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
This is Eddie other Eddie. This is the guy thumbs up,
thumbs down, Eddie. This is thumbs up, thumbs down, Eddie.
This is the guy. That's a game, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
We're playing the game. No, all right, anyway, Yes, what
is it? What is going on? Welcome Eddie, thank.
Speaker 7 (18:36):
You, thanks for taking my call. How you're coming along
being I'm.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Great, although I'm hearing some weird noise in my headphones.
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Something. Yes, yeah, I think they're enjoying some television in there.
But we're doing radio over here on this side.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I don't know why I'm here. Yes, what's going on?
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Eddie?
Speaker 2 (18:53):
What's going on?
Speaker 7 (18:55):
I got a couple of thumbs up thumbs down for you.
Let's let's take a crack at everyone.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Ready, thumbs this is the room. Ready, thumbs up, thumbs down.
You're gonna go round the room. This is big round
robin style with Eddie thumbs up, thumbs down.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Eddie, here we are, Addy, all right.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Major League Baseball's Atlantic Division, their minor league division. They're
trying out a new rule because they would like for
the starting pitchers to stay in the game longer. So
the rule they're experimenting with is, once you take out
your starting pitcher, you lose your designated hitter. You like
that rule, thumbs up or thumbs down?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Now thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I'll tell you why it's thumbs down, because the whole
reason they have the designated hitter is because pitchers suck
at hitting.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
They want to make the offense.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
They want more offense in baseball, and this is that's weak.
That's just a way to cowtow to the old guard
that are upset that that they got rid of the
pitchers hitting. So I say thumbs down, Eddie, all right,
Roberto thumbs down, thumbs down, Kobolo thumbs down. Everyone copied
my work. All right, what's next, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Okay, here's the next one. I'm gonna date my age
a little bit here to remember how the Super Bowl
started combining the NFL and AFL. So ponder this in
the next three to five years. If the XFL the
USFL stay around, how would you like to see their
champions play the Super Bowl winner? Thumb thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Oh, okay, so I'm gonna go thumbs up. I think
it would be great. It'll never happen, but I think
we're outstanding. You'll mention embarrassing that would be of an
NFL team lost to an XFL team. Holy crap. But
I'll go thumbs up just for talk radio purposes, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Now I'm going thumbs down because I hate the XFL
and I love the USFL.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I don't want to the.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Horrible XFL.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Please robertoms down. Thumbs down, thumbs up, all right, thumbs up.
By cope. There we go mixed mixed on that one.
Speaker 7 (20:50):
What's next, Okay, here's your last one. Oh, the Carolina
Panther is now the best team in their division. Thumbs
up and thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
All right, So this is some inventory here. We got
Derek carrs in New Orleans. We got Atlanta's got no quarterback.
That's a bulls treaged you know what. I'm going thumbs
up on that. By the by the process of elimination, Eddie,
I'm going to Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
So thumbs up on that. What about you, Eddie?
Speaker 4 (21:17):
Thumbs down, Derek Carr.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
You are such a homer. What about we're playing the game, Eddie.
It's not your Roberto thumbs up, thumbs up on that,
all right, coopler car sucks.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Screw you er, I'm gonna go thumbs down, Derek Carr.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
No, they are not.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You know who's coaching the Saints? Do you know the
matter who's Yes, it does matter who's coaching the does matter.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
That great Frank Reich. You yeah, but he's the other
guy suck. Also, do you go?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
You got Todd Bowles in Tampa. You got the son
of the billionaire with the falcons, right, the guy that's
the FedEx son, he's coaching the falcon smith.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Yeah, whatever his name is. So yeah, I'm gonna that's
a good call.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But I know you're and I knew you'd like that,
Eddie because I'm sucking up to you because you're in Charlotte's.
Speaker 7 (22:04):
Thank you guys.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
All right, tell you, buddy, the guy is Eddie thumbs up,
thumbs down, Eddie, I give him a thumb up.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
I love that call.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I gotta hang up on it. That's a great call.
It's a sad call. That's that's a guy prepared right there,
did his homework. Yeah, you're hearing what I'm here, rightie, Yes, okay,
all right, there you go, all right, But nobody else
can hear it.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I guess we're the only ones that can hear it.
So anyway, you know what I did. I not just say, hey,
I have the Gremlins not attacked.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
And now what happens when I do the show from
my house. I'm in my underwear right now, Eddie. I'm
wearing my thong and I'm doing the show and no
one can see me.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
It's an amazing I.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Don't know why you're saying that. I'm looking right at it.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Now, You're not You're lying. Hey, I'm not going to

the air before anyone else. Joellenbiid and Tyrese Maxie, those
are basketball players. They became the seventh pair of teammates
(27:04):
to each score thirty or more points in the same
game this postseason. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Not enough? Sean thought about it.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
He paused, He contemplated the time space continuum, and said,
not enough.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Let's find out that is right.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, they're the ninth pair of teammates to go for
thirty or more each in the same game these playoffs,
the most in NBA history. Question Number two. The Tampa
Bay Rays have hit sixty nine home runs so far
this year. Is that too much or not enough for
baseball's top team? Not enough, he's going not enough again,
(27:52):
Let's find out. Is Sean the apprentice right?
Speaker 2 (27:57):
That is correct? Look at you?
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Wander Franco hit the rays seventy fourth home run of
the season on Tuesday night, the most through the first
thirty seven games since the Cardinals were all on steroids
allegedly back in the year two thousand. Question number three,
You get this right, You'll already have won the game.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
We'll keep going, though though he lost.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Stephen Curry recorded his fifth career thirty point triple double
in the playoffs? Is that too much or not.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Enough?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (28:41):
He says, too much? This is for the win, to
wrap up the win. Three for three, Let's find out.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
You've already won. But we're gonna keep going. You're dominating.
You're making a mockery of the game. Question number four,
the bonus for you. Jimmy Butler just had his third
twenty five point tennissist game as a Miami Heat player.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Is that too much in the playoffs? In the playoffs,
is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 7 (29:16):
Too much?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Let's find out.
Speaker 1 (29:22):

Speaker 1 (32:16):
Yummy. I like my chicken and I like citrus. Yeah right,

Speaker 6 (32:21):
Mexican citrus chicken right here, baby, I might be confused

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Go gring on us Mexican max.
Speaker 6 (32:28):
Right, whether it's getting better, go outside and barbecue on
it some place, I guess, right, I don't know, yeah,
getting better? Sure, all right, So we got five pounds
of chicken.
Speaker 2 (32:38):
All right, that's a lot of that's a lot of chicken.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
Preferly thighs and breasts, you know, because that's the best.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Many men, many men enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (32:45):
Exactly tablespoons of Lori seasony salt. Two tablespoons of paprika
smoke paprika, now, you know what, regular paprika and not
smoke paprica.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Now we don't want that snow stuff, you know, not
not for this.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Only when you're you're frying some some chicken and making.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
We're not making gumball.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Exactly. Two tablespoons of garlic powder, two tablespoons of onion powder,
two tablespoons of ground black pepper.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah, delicious, all right, that's right.
Speaker 6 (33:11):
Half a half a cup of freshly squeezed oranges, all right, delectable.
Half a cup of freshly squeezed limes, all right.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
These are real oranges, real limes, a lot of citrus,
a lot of stuff.
Speaker 6 (33:24):
Talking about about five five oranges and five limes.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
All right.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
All right, So in a large in a large bowl,
season the chicken with the laries and the paprika, the
garlic powder, and onion powder and ground black pepper. That's right,
on both sides of each piece of the chicken.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Hocking goes the pepper. All right. Yeah, so work gonna work.
Speaker 6 (33:45):
Season one side fitted around, but on the other side,
all right, they just throw the seasons in the bowl
and mix it all together.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Get it.
Speaker 6 (33:52):
You gotta get it on the bird.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I like it seasoned. I like a lot of I
gotta rub it in the bird.
Speaker 6 (33:57):
Yeah, exactly, you gotta get it in the birds.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I think you use my hands and squeeze the bird.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
Because there's some people that like to throw all the
seasons in the in the bowl. Then throw the juice
in there.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
No, no, he's giving me a weird look at him
in my home studio. I don't know why.
Speaker 6 (34:10):
That's very well, how can you see you? That's crazy?
Speaker 2 (34:12):
He must be like a poultry guys, a ghost.
Speaker 4 (34:16):
All right.
Speaker 6 (34:17):
Next, out of the orange and lime juices. The juices
should be enough to fill the bowl and cover the
entire chicken.
Speaker 7 (34:22):
All right.
Speaker 6 (34:23):
So if you don't have enough juice, add some more.
Speaker 2 (34:25):
You gotta drown the chicken.
Speaker 6 (34:26):
Round the chicken gonna drown this bad boy, right, drown
that bird.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
You gotta make that bird life.
Speaker 6 (34:33):
Cover that chicken. There, you go, cover that chicken.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
Man, Look at the birds trying to get out of
the sauce.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
They can't get out of it.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
The water.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
That chick, that's something different.
Speaker 6 (34:44):
I don't cover the bowl with the foil or surround
wrap and allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator
for at least four hours.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
That bird's gotta get moist. You gotta get juicy, juicy bird.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
You can do an hour.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
But the more do it the right way.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
You're gonna do it. Do it the right way. Don't
cut corners. No more time the better. So even if
you can do it twenty four hours.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
Right, only get to eat so many meals while you're alive, enjoyed, exactly, enjoyed.
Speaker 4 (35:12):
All right.
Speaker 6 (35:12):
I'll probably make this this weekend for my mom.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
That's probably what I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (35:15):
Do for mothers.
Speaker 4 (35:16):
Mothers.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Exactly rate your mom moved way to do it, all right.
Speaker 6 (35:19):
Next, we'll get ready to cook the chicken in direct
heat by adding charcoal to I'm gonna get this in charcoal, right, Okay,
you don't not cook with gas, guys. Roberto hates gas
gushes for lazy bums at the guy in main.
Speaker 2 (35:31):
He hates that.
Speaker 6 (35:33):
Next, we'll get ready to cut the chicken and indirect
heat by adding charcoal to one side of our grill.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
All right, okay, And it's.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Like the steeler's helmet. Only one side of the exactly
only one logo. That's it, and we'll leave the other.
I can't afford the other steers. We'll leave the other
side of the girl empty.
Speaker 6 (35:52):
Okay, okay, all right, So we'll grie the chicken until
an instant redith thermometer registers one hundred and six five
degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
That's the magic, all right. Yeah, when inserted.
Speaker 6 (36:04):
Into the thickest portion of each piece of chicken, fat pieces, right,
and that breast, that big lumpy breast. Take that chicken
right in there, large breast, a right sick at the matt,
the big breast.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
Stick that thermometer.
Speaker 6 (36:16):
Ride in that bad boy.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Shove it right in there, all right, if you got.
Speaker 6 (36:19):
It the thickest part of me sticking about twenty about
twenty to thirty minutes, all right, okay, yeah, this is
good about ten about ten fifty minutes per side. All right,
we're gonna kick this chicken.
Speaker 2 (36:30):
This chicken here, Yeah, just keep an eye on it. Yeah,
that's going there, all right.
Speaker 6 (36:34):
Base the chicken with an extra marinade. Well, cooking it
on the grill. You got extra juice their throw it
on that bad.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Boy, all right, yeah, get it all covered in that.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
When the chicken is cooked, discarding and left over.
Speaker 2 (36:44):
Marinate, get rid of right. You know you don't need
it for anything else, exactly. You're good on that.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
Enjoy with some tortillas and Mike green or red sauce
that I've given out throughout this program.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Roberto's authentic.
Speaker 1 (36:57):
That's right. My recipe made red or green salsa. I
used to love the red sausa. I'm now a green
sausa saua. I'm all grown up. I like the green salsa.
I think I like them both the same. To be
honest with you.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
Now you can't. That's like saying, if you have another kid.
Speaker 6 (37:12):
If I'm eating pork, I want green salsa. If I'm
eating carnasava, I want the red sauce. Depends on what
you're eating exact. I like my green sauca with chips.
I'm guiding you a lot of chips, all right, you
know my roof. There's no chips at the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Oh yeah, gotta have it.
Speaker 6 (37:27):
Just I thought you got some authentic boil asado or
Mexican citrus marinated chicken.
Speaker 5 (37:33):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
If you want this, download the podcast, take notes, you
can make it.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
Let us send photos. Cooking with Roberta
Hello and welcome. It's our number three. A generational divide
In our three here, Kenny Smith, beloved commentator hawking a
book says that Michael Jordan would have struggled in the
social media era. Are you in or out on that take?
(00:21):
And how would Jordan have handled the modern technology which
was not around when he played for the Bulls in
his NBA career And what would have been the hardest
thing for Jordan to handle in this new wacky world
we're living in. We'll talk about that and more right
now here. It is our number three Walking on air.
(00:42):
Wel come, in the beginning of another hour of the
Ben Mather Show.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
We are in the air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (00:54):
We crowd around and protect the motherboard coach, the coach
sport of the border, hand beyond on the mast and
considerably powerful microphones of fsre ammnating live from the ride,
the bumpy Ride on the rocky Road. We are broadcasting
(01:15):
live from the tyraq dot com studios. Tyraq dot com
will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast tree shipping,
free road hazard protection and over ten thousand It's a
lot recommended in star Wars tyraq dot com. The way
tirebind shitb and so our lead this hour coming from
(01:37):
the way back machine. I saw this and cut my attention.
Changed it up a little bit this hour. It does
involve basketball, but it's old school basketball. So how would
a legend of a previous generation deal with the modern
headaches of today? Specifically Michael Jordan say what now? This
(02:04):
came up in conversation on Undisputed and it was directed
to me. I was sleeping when Undisputed was on, but
Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharp had Kenny Smith on.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
I guess he's pimping some book.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
He's he wrote a book, and you gotta promote the
book or us you won't sell the book. And I'd
like to write a book, I'd promote the book. But anyway,
Kenny Smith was yapping about Michael Jordan because Shannon Sharp
and Skip Bayless liked to talk about what they like
to talk about, the Lakers, the Cowboys. They like to
talk about Lebron James, Michael Jordan, and a few like
(02:40):
two other things. Tom Brady, Tom Brady, Yeah, Tom Brady
olls somebody. Kenny Smith was on there promoting his book
and he was asked about Michael Jordan and how would
Jordan have faired during the social media era that we're
in now. Course, Jordan played when that stuff did not exist.
It was a different world when Jordan was playing for
the Bulls and the Washington Bullets slash Wizards. So anyways,
(03:04):
asked about that and the NBA on TNT analyst said
he thinks that Michael Jordan would not have done well,
say what now, just to prove that I am not
making this up, as Warner Wolfe said back in his day,
let's go to the audio tape.
Speaker 3 (03:20):
It would have been too much because think about how
everybody in the.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
World knew about him.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
You know, he was like our version of musically Michael Jackson,
like around the world everybody. He was the most recognizable
person in the world. And I don't know if social media.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
It would have been too.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Much because it was almost too much, and it was
no social media and all you saw was Michael everywhere
like and but you think about it. You know, newspapers
was our social media. Everyone had a newspaper back then,
so you know, you going from New York, you go
on a subway, every business person, every person had a
newspaper in their hands. So we did have the device.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
It was just archaic.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
Yeah, Kenny loves to say he's from New York, doesn't he?
I think I don't know if he still does. But
he lived in LA for a long time. I think
he still lives in LA. But people from New York
love to say they're from New York? Right is that from?
Speaker 2 (04:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
It's weird.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
It's an odd thing anyway. So let us discuss the question.
You heard Kenny Smith there say it would be too much.
Too much, says Michael Jordan. Social media would have been
too much. He would have struggled in the social media
area era. Are you in or out on that? Are
you in or out on Michael Jordan's struggling in the
social media era? So I am out on that.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
I'm not in. I'm not in agreement. I am out.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
I've got Lozenge, delegation and freestyle skiing, and we will
connect all of these things together now and we're gonna
make We are gonna make a nice book, a nice
book that Kenny Smith is trying to get you to
buy good luck as he's talking about old tech knowology
(05:00):
and things like that. So, first of all, Kenny Smith
is wonderful on television.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Nope, bots.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
He's wondering I love him and Charles Barkley should kiss
Kenny Smith, asked, because without Kenny Smith, Barkley would not
be who he is, the yind of the Yang. Nobody
talks about Kenny Smith. They always talk about Charles Barkley, this,
that and the other thing. But Kenny Smith is the
ultimate setup guy with Ernie Johnson and those guys on TNT.
But this is a misfire. This is a misfire that
(05:27):
take bazooka misfired on this one. Michael Jordan would have
absolutely figured things out. I will gather out tate. Now,
social media is an interesting animal in the modern world.
It's preposterous to say that Jordan would have drowned in
this environment. However, there's an easy solution for Michael Jordan
(05:49):
and anyone else who wants.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
To deal with the modern world that we're living in.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
If you take if you go into the medicine cabinet
and you tends with lozenges, you pick right wish losenge.
If you take the red one, you stay in Wonderland,
as the line goes from the matrix. But if you
take the blue losage, the one that's blue like a pill,
but it's a losage.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (06:13):
Then the social media, the carnival, all that comes to
an end and it will distort and all that and
funhouse of mirrors simply avoided. You don't have to visit
the apps, you don't have to have them on their phone.
You're not gonna die, You're not gonna miss anything. There
are other ways to get information and out of sight,
(06:35):
out of mind.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Now.
Speaker 1 (06:36):
Secondly, look our guy Roberto, by the way, he hasn't
been on Twitter.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Has his life gone in the toilet? No?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Right, your life is fine. You've been off Twitter for
months and you're still living your life. You haven't picked
up any illnesses or anything like that, and your family
doesn't hate you now, and you still have to go
go to work. You still I mean to change anything now. Secondly,
how would Michael Jordan have handled social media? Well, we
(07:06):
don't know what we don't know, but being a distant
relative of Nostradamus and friend of Nostrudemus, we can look
into the crystal ball. So Jordan would have followed the
best selling self help book by Tom Brady, A Complete
Idiot's Guide to Social Media. The word is delegation, and
(07:27):
that is the secret sauce that TB twelve mastered the
Instruction Manual of Tom Brady because Brady as a the
guy's he started in the NFL before social media, and
while he was playing it became a big deal and
all that.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Or Brady rather wasn't on there for a.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Lot of it, but he's kind of navigated the instruction
manual the Complete Idiot's Guide to social Media. So what
Brady does is he has a team of social media
nerds who manage his online persona. They cook up slick
video and images and little cartoon drawings, and people are mesmerized.
They think it's actually him. Michael Jordan could have easily
(08:08):
done the same thing and still could do the same
thing that Nike social media managers can paignstakingly write the
tweets and schedule them in advance, and this is what
powerful people do, and stars and corporations and all that.
Ninety five percent of the unwashed on those apps have
(08:32):
no idea that the people they're talking to are someone
who went to college to study social media and tech,
or they're a pr person. They're not the actual celebrity
you think you're sending the messages. Most of the celebrities
are not actually on their partaking and all that, whether
or not they just don't have time or they don't
want to play with live hand grenades and get canceled
(08:53):
and all that, and so they use stunt doubles, if
you will. They use stunt doubles there and let the
flunkies underneath them who they pay.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
A pittance figure it out.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Now, final thought, what would have been the hardest part
for Michael Jordan and the social media? So it's not
the content, because Michael Jordan could have had someone put
content up, that part of it would not have been
an issue. The big problem for Jordan And I know
from back in the day when I was starting out
(09:26):
in radio and Jordan was playing for the Bulls, and
I would go to these games and people would gossip
about stuff that Jordan was doing with porn stars and whatnot,
and there were all kinds of wild stories and nobody
had any confirmation. I have any confirmation all that stuff.
But I would say the hardest thing would be keep
your double life under wraps. Because Jordan, he had a
(09:47):
system of bodyguards and handlers. When the Bulls traveling circus
would roll into town, Jordan would either not stay with
the team, or he'd have his own floor at a hotel.
If you at the rich Carlton and they have a
floor where you have to have your special key to
get up to and it's only for the very special
(10:08):
elevator at some of the hotels. Jordan was say, but
so you had this whole thing, and he'd stroll out
of the hotels through kitchens and service entrances and fire escapes,
dodging paparazzo. That is one animal. Dodging the paparazzo is
one animal. But here's the other. It's a whole different
battlefield in social media. So I think Jordan will be
(10:28):
all right. He'd be able to stay off those things
and ignore a lot of the noise, although he did
get upset with some sports writers who were writing in
these things called newspapers back in the day. So he'd
like to be annoyed by somebody. He couldn't completely avoid it.
But social media now, if you're a celebrity, it's like
it's freestyle skiing compared.
Speaker 2 (10:46):
To the way it used to be.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
There's more flips and there's more twists, and the degree
of difficulty goes up, and so you know, that's the problem, right,
and you get a higher score based on the jump.
Everyone's got the video cameras we all know and ready
to document the dalliances of Michael Jordan and whatnot. And
(11:09):
so you're talking about thousands of wanna be TMZ field
reporters who are just waiting to call the tip line
and get paid by Harvey Levin as long as they
don't send in a photo of the wrong coach and
it gets posted on the website, because that would be unfortunate.
Shout out Dean Smith. We talked about that earlier in
(11:32):
Denny Crumb.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
But it be all right.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
As the line goes, just about everything in life is relative,
and new tech is better in some ways, it's worse
than others, but everything is relative. It is the Bent
Mather Show, and if you'd like to comment on that
or anything else. The NBA playoff games, the Western Conference
game went to the Nuggets in a route or root
(11:56):
as they went gamebusters in the third quarter, and the
Philadelphia seventy six ers in Boston emasculating Jason Tatum and
the Celtics. What a pathetic performance by the Celtics as
they lose on the home court and now are on
the brink of elimination, and the Suns are on the
brink of elimination in the West. Eight seven, seven ninety
(12:17):
nine on Fox the Number. Also on Twitter at Ben Maller.
We'll take some calls also, we have too much or
not enough later in the hour straight ahead the Mallord
Riddle of the day. And here it is, we go
back to the big mistake, the hoo goofed I've got
to know moment. So ESPN and NHL officials are blaming
(12:39):
Blank for the clear and obvious screw up which made
it seem like the NHL Draft lottery was rigged. Again,
NHL and ESPN officials are blaming Blank for the NHL
Draft lottery looking like it was rigged. That is the
Mallard Riddle of the day.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Answer. We'll get to it and we will do it next.
And I use the suction technique. It was a suction cup,
is what it was.
Speaker 5 (13:08):

Speaker 6 (13:40):
The Tiger's got a big one too, I think, although.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
He's not on Twitter anymore because he's protesting, wants Dave
Roberts to be fired. I don't think that's gonna happen
anytime soon.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
He will be fired at some point this point, but
we might not be alive, but we'll go ahead and get.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Back on Twitter.
Speaker 4 (13:56):
Yeah, but we do have cookie with Roberto.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
Come back up a fan favor.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
There's a guy in Maine that loves cooking with a brother,
one of Roberto's big fans.
Speaker 4 (14:06):
Screw that bum alive from the tyrack dot Com, Fox
Sports Radio Studios. It's Ben Mallor.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
A Mallard monologue.
Speaker 1 (14:14):
Kenny Smith and Jordan would have it would have been
too much social media.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
I disagree. Talked about that and we'll take your calls.
Coming up.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
Here's the Mallard Riddle of the day, ESPN and NHL
officials are blaming blank for the NHL draft lottery appearing
to be fixed, appearing.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
To be rigged.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
Very very awkward situation and it wow. Anyway, this does
anyone know the answer? Page down? Ferg Dog says they
are blaming wrong button, Bob. He did it again?
Speaker 2 (14:50):
He did it?
Speaker 1 (14:51):
That sounds that wrong button, Bob Garrett makes sense to us.
We have late night drug tester Missus O'Leary's cow. Yes,
the great fires started because of that. Who else do
we have in Chicago? Appropriately enough? Milkman Mike in Colorado says,
the dominion voting systems is the answer. Bengal fan Bryan says,
(15:13):
way too much self gratification is the problem. Just josh
As the Four Letter Network and the NHL blame Eddie Garcia,
and in his rebuttal, Eddie said, puck him is what
he had to say.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 1 (15:29):
Kirby says, the only person to blame is Pat Trick,
You knowing, who else.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Do we have?
Speaker 1 (15:35):
The Grill sergeant says the blame they blame Eddie Garcia
and the Puck the World podcast. They blame as Eddie
has managed to hijack my timeline with his fans. Who
else out the alien o piners going with social media
as the problem. Donkey Sausage says, weighted down ping pong balls.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
Can't read that. We'll skip over that.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
There a lot of people saying your name it everyone's
picking you is the reason that the lottery went haywire
courtesy Flusher's going with a power outage. Mike says, the
gremlins attack. Yes, I don't know why the gremlins have
an attacked. I'm in the home studio right now, the
gremlins having attacked me right now. I don't understand why
Chip and the Cues is going with the COVID nineteen
(16:24):
strain that that's the problem. Areek in Minnesota is filing
a formal protest. He says, three straight pro bouncy ball monologues.
He says he's going to boycott the meet and greet
now as he result, Okay, calm down, buckeroo Eddie. Do
you have an answer to the Malard riddle of the day.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
He's an obvious answer. It's Gary, Gary Batman.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Is that the answer?
Speaker 1 (16:50):
The Four Letter Network and NHL officials are blaming teleprompter
production error as to why there was a mistake at
the draft lottery.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
I actually think that's true.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
You're saying that Kevin Weeks just reads off the teleprompter
exactly what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Exactly what I'm saying is.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
A Ron Burgundy moment. Yes, go after yourself, Sandy, I go.
Speaker 4 (17:21):
That is, go after yourself, Anaheim Duck and that's ah,
that is that is wonderful.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
That would be great.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
So they told Kevin, Hey, Kevin, we're gonna have you
do the lottery, but just read whatever's on the prompter.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
And he did.
Speaker 6 (17:36):
Common sense would dictate, don't reveal.
Speaker 4 (17:40):
We're about to reveal.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Did He also say, I don't know if you know this,
but I'm kind of a big deal, just like Ron Burgundy.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Full he didn't go that far.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
He's a very nice guy. He does a pretty good job,
but he totally screwed that.
Speaker 2 (17:52):
Yeah, I met him.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
I didn't.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
I don't know him, but I met him briefly in
my very brief television career, and he was a very
nice guy. But he was working he was double dipping
at the NBC Sports Network and working in Toronto at
the NHL Network. So he had a couple of things
going on. Let's go to the phones and we'll say
hello to Eddie. Let's say if Eddie's still there, he's
in Charlotte. He's the guy he likes.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
Well, no, not you. This is a different Eddie. This
is the Eddie and Charlotte.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
See.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
This is hello Eddie. Hey, hey Eddie.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
This is Eddie other Eddie. This is the guy thumbs up,
thumbs down, Eddie. This is thumbs up, thumbs down, Eddie.
This is the guy. That's a game, Eddie.
Speaker 2 (18:30):
We're playing the game. No, all right, anyway, Yes, what
is it? What is going on? Welcome Eddie, thank.
Speaker 7 (18:36):
You, thanks for taking my call. How you're coming along
being I'm.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
Great, although I'm hearing some weird noise in my headphones.
I don't know what that is.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
Something. Yes, yeah, I think they're enjoying some television in there.
But we're doing radio over here on this side.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
I don't know why I'm here. Yes, what's going on?
Speaker 4 (18:53):
Eddie?
Speaker 2 (18:53):
What's going on?
Speaker 7 (18:55):
I got a couple of thumbs up thumbs down for you.
Let's let's take a crack at everyone.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Ready, thumbs this is the room. Ready, thumbs up, thumbs down.
You're gonna go round the room. This is big round
robin style with Eddie thumbs up, thumbs down.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Eddie, here we are, Addy, all right.
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Major League Baseball's Atlantic Division, their minor league division. They're
trying out a new rule because they would like for
the starting pitchers to stay in the game longer. So
the rule they're experimenting with is, once you take out
your starting pitcher, you lose your designated hitter. You like
that rule, thumbs up or thumbs down?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
Now thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
I'll tell you why it's thumbs down, because the whole
reason they have the designated hitter is because pitchers suck
at hitting.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
They want to make the offense.
Speaker 1 (19:40):
They want more offense in baseball, and this is that's weak.
That's just a way to cowtow to the old guard
that are upset that that they got rid of the
pitchers hitting. So I say thumbs down, Eddie, all right,
Roberto thumbs down, thumbs down, Kobolo thumbs down. Everyone copied
my work. All right, what's next, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (20:00):
Okay, here's the next one. I'm gonna date my age
a little bit here to remember how the Super Bowl
started combining the NFL and AFL. So ponder this in
the next three to five years. If the XFL the
USFL stay around, how would you like to see their
champions play the Super Bowl winner? Thumb thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
Oh, okay, so I'm gonna go thumbs up. I think
it would be great. It'll never happen, but I think
we're outstanding. You'll mention embarrassing that would be of an
NFL team lost to an XFL team. Holy crap. But
I'll go thumbs up just for talk radio purposes, Eddie.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
Now I'm going thumbs down because I hate the XFL
and I love the USFL.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
I don't want to the.
Speaker 4 (20:42):
Horrible XFL.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
Please robertoms down. Thumbs down, thumbs up, all right, thumbs up.
By cope. There we go mixed mixed on that one.
Speaker 7 (20:50):
What's next, Okay, here's your last one. Oh, the Carolina
Panther is now the best team in their division. Thumbs
up and thumbs down.
Speaker 1 (20:59):
All right, So this is some inventory here. We got
Derek carrs in New Orleans. We got Atlanta's got no quarterback.
That's a bulls treaged you know what. I'm going thumbs
up on that. By the by the process of elimination, Eddie,
I'm going to Carolina Panthers.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
So thumbs up on that. What about you, Eddie?
Speaker 4 (21:17):
Thumbs down, Derek Carr.
Speaker 1 (21:20):
You are such a homer. What about we're playing the game, Eddie.
It's not your Roberto thumbs up, thumbs up on that,
all right, coopler car sucks.
Speaker 2 (21:30):
Screw you er, I'm gonna go thumbs down, Derek Carr.
Speaker 5 (21:35):
No, they are not.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
You know who's coaching the Saints? Do you know the
matter who's Yes, it does matter who's coaching the does matter.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
That great Frank Reich. You yeah, but he's the other
guy suck. Also, do you go?
Speaker 1 (21:48):
You got Todd Bowles in Tampa. You got the son
of the billionaire with the falcons, right, the guy that's
the FedEx son, he's coaching the falcon smith.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
Yeah, whatever his name is. So yeah, I'm gonna that's
a good call.
Speaker 1 (21:59):
But I know you're and I knew you'd like that,
Eddie because I'm sucking up to you because you're in Charlotte's.
Speaker 7 (22:04):
Thank you guys.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
All right, tell you, buddy, the guy is Eddie thumbs up,
thumbs down, Eddie, I give him a thumb up.
Speaker 2 (22:12):
I love that call.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I gotta hang up on it. That's a great call.
It's a sad call. That's that's a guy prepared right there,
did his homework. Yeah, you're hearing what I'm here, rightie, Yes, okay,
all right, there you go, all right, But nobody else
can hear it.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I guess we're the only ones that can hear it.
So anyway, you know what I did. I not just say, hey,
I have the Gremlins not attacked.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
And now what happens when I do the show from
my house. I'm in my underwear right now, Eddie. I'm
wearing my thong and I'm doing the show and no
one can see me.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
It's an amazing I.
Speaker 4 (22:45):
Don't know why you're saying that. I'm looking right at it.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
Now, You're not You're lying. Hey, I'm not going to

I'll give you two golden tickets. Get three right, I'll
give you one golden ticket, which is a way to
jump the line. When you call up, you'll get on
the air before anyone else. Joellenbiid and Tyrese Maxie, those
are basketball players. They became the seventh pair of teammates
(27:04):
to each score thirty or more points in the same
game this postseason. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 2 (27:15):
Not enough? Sean thought about it.
Speaker 1 (27:17):
He paused, He contemplated the time space continuum, and said,
not enough.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Let's find out that is right.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Yeah, they're the ninth pair of teammates to go for
thirty or more each in the same game these playoffs,
the most in NBA history. Question Number two. The Tampa
Bay Rays have hit sixty nine home runs so far
this year. Is that too much or not enough for
baseball's top team? Not enough, he's going not enough again,
(27:52):
Let's find out. Is Sean the apprentice right?
Speaker 2 (27:57):
That is correct? Look at you?
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Wander Franco hit the rays seventy fourth home run of
the season on Tuesday night, the most through the first
thirty seven games since the Cardinals were all on steroids
allegedly back in the year two thousand. Question number three,
You get this right, You'll already have won the game.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
We'll keep going, though though he lost.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
Stephen Curry recorded his fifth career thirty point triple double
in the playoffs? Is that too much or not.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Enough?
Speaker 4 (28:40):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (28:41):
He says, too much? This is for the win, to
wrap up the win. Three for three, Let's find out.
Speaker 7 (28:48):
That's it.
Speaker 1 (28:51):
You've already won. But we're gonna keep going. You're dominating.
You're making a mockery of the game. Question number four,
the bonus for you. Jimmy Butler just had his third
twenty five point tennissist game as a Miami Heat player.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Is that too much in the playoffs? In the playoffs,
is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 7 (29:16):
Too much?
Speaker 2 (29:19):
Let's find out.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
Now the street against but you still won the game. Congratulations, Sean.
The answer was not enough. It was his fifth such
playoff game, tied with Dwayne Wade for the most in
the Miami Heat's history. So good luck, Sean As the apprentice.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
Right, whether it's getting better, go outside and barbecue on
it some place, I guess, right, I don't know, yeah,

All right, that's a lot of that's a lot of chicken.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
Preferly thighs and breasts, you know, because that's the best.

Many men, many men enjoy that.
Speaker 6 (32:45):
Exactly tablespoons of Lori seasony salt. Two tablespoons of paprika
smoke paprika, now, you know what, regular paprika and not
smoke paprica.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Now we don't want that snow stuff, you know, not
not for this.
Speaker 6 (32:56):
Only when you're you're frying some some chicken and making.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
We're not making gumball.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
Exactly. Two tablespoons of garlic powder, two tablespoons of onion powder,
two tablespoons of ground black pepper.
Speaker 2 (33:08):
Yeah, delicious, all right, that's right.
Speaker 6 (33:11):
Half a half a cup of freshly squeezed oranges, all right, delectable.
Half a cup of freshly squeezed limes, all right.

These are real oranges, real limes, a lot of citrus,
a lot of stuff.
Speaker 6 (33:24):
Talking about about five five oranges and five limes.
Speaker 4 (33:27):
All right.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
All right, So in a large in a large bowl,
season the chicken with the laries and the paprika, the
garlic powder, and onion powder and ground black pepper. That's right,
on both sides of each piece of the chicken.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Hocking goes the pepper. All right. Yeah, so work gonna work.
Speaker 6 (33:45):
Season one side fitted around, but on the other side,
all right, they just throw the seasons in the bowl
and mix it all together.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Get it.
Speaker 6 (33:52):
You gotta get it on the bird.
Speaker 2 (33:53):

Speaker 6 (33:57):
Yeah, exactly, you gotta get it in the birds.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
I think you use my hands and squeeze the bird.
Speaker 6 (34:02):
Because there's some people that like to throw all the
seasons in the in the bowl. Then throw the juice
in there.
Speaker 2 (34:05):
No, no, he's giving me a weird look at him
in my home studio. I don't know why.
Speaker 6 (34:10):

Speaker 2 (34:12):
He must be like a poultry guys, a ghost.
Speaker 4 (34:16):

Speaker 6 (34:17):
Next, out of the orange and lime juices. The juices
should be enough to fill the bowl and cover the
entire chicken.
Speaker 7 (34:22):
All right.
Speaker 6 (34:23):
So if you don't have enough juice, add some more.
Speaker 2 (34:25):

They can't get out of it.
Speaker 6 (34:41):
The water.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
That chick, that's something different.
Speaker 6 (34:44):
I don't cover the bowl with the foil or surround
wrap and allow the chicken to marinate in the refrigerator
for at least four hours.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
That bird's gotta get moist. You gotta get juicy, juicy bird.
Speaker 4 (34:56):

heat by adding charcoal to one side of our grill.

I can't afford the other steers. We'll leave the other
side of the girl empty.
Speaker 6 (35:52):
Okay, okay, all right, So we'll grie the chicken until
an instant redith thermometer registers one hundred and six five
degrees fahrenheit.
Speaker 2 (36:01):
That's the magic, all right. Yeah, when inserted.
Speaker 6 (36:04):

Roberto's authentic.

That's right. My recipe made red or green salsa. I
used to love the red sausa. I'm now a green
sausa saua. I'm all grown up. I like the green salsa.
I think I like them both the same. To be
honest with you.
Speaker 2 (37:10):
Now you can't. That's like saying, if you have another kid.
Speaker 6 (37:12):
If I'm eating pork, I want green salsa. If I'm
