Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number three, our three, and
we go to pro bouncy ball. Was Dame Lillard traded?

Speaker 2 (00:11):
No?

Speaker 1 (00:12):
What about James Harden?

Speaker 3 (00:13):
No?

Speaker 1 (00:14):
But are Donovan Mitchell's day's numbered in Cleveland? Yes? No,
maybe so? And how do you decode Mark Cuban saying
that Kyrie Irving knows the Mavericks are Loucause team. And
what did you make of Nikola Jokicic's viral dance after

(00:34):
winning some random Serbian horse race. We'll talk about that
as well. All of it coming your way right now here.
It is our number three. Never a bad time to
talk spiders, well kind of spiders. Welcome. In the beginning
of another hour of the Ben Mathers Show, we are

(00:56):
in the air everywhere conspirators, as we provide squirm inducing
audio coast to coast, border to border and beyond on

We'll have Mallard's mount and Money coming up as well

(01:40):
later in the hour. But our lead comes from the workshop,
the Hoopa Loopa workshop as in hoops. Was James Harden traded?

Speaker 3 (01:53):
No?

Speaker 1 (01:54):
How about Dame Lillard? Did Dame Lillard leave the Oregon
Trail for the sun, the sand, the palm trees of
South Florida? Let me check my notes here. No, those
trades are still at impass. But there is one player
whose name has not popped up recently on this trade watch,

(02:17):
who's now re emerged on the dance floor, ready to
do the shuffle. Do the shuffle? Now, you got to
do the shuffle. And so if you haven't been following
along because you have a life and you don't pay
attention to every minute detail, the word is we are
hearing the Donovan Mitchell, better known as Spider Donovan Mitchell,

(02:40):
his time in Cleveland is closing fast. It's coming to
an end. Say what?

Speaker 2 (02:47):
So?

Speaker 1 (02:47):
There are whispers whispers around the NBA, and the whispers
indicate that Mitchell is not planning on making Cleveland his
forever home. Instead, he would like to move on to
greener pastures, hopefully in the Tri State area there in
the New York area, and he's not planning on signing

(03:11):
an extension now. A year ago, actually less than a
year ago, last September, Donovan Mitchell was traded with much
fanfare and traded to the Cleveland from the Utah Jazz.
But now the word is the Calvs not something he
wants to continue with long term. And he can't leave
this year, he can't leave for another season the plus,

(03:34):
so he's stuck in Cleveland at least to that long.
So let us discuss here as the debate rages, what
will you do? You make the call if it is
true that Donovan Mitchell is not happy, and we know
how this works in the NBA. If you're not happy,
oh my, if you're not happy, forget about it. So
the question on this one, as we discussed the question

(03:57):
our Donovan Mitchell's days truly numbered in Cleveland. So I
am nodding my head. Yes, I've got optometrist positive affirmations
and Peggy and we will combine all of these things
together and we are going to make a wonderful, wonderful

(04:20):
training camp experience, which will only cost you several hundred
dollars by the time you get out of there with
all the crap that they're going to try to sell
you if you go to NFL training camp. So anyway,
first of all, to answer the question, are Donovan Mitchell's
days numbered in Cleveland? The answer, of course is yes.
This is a tangled web of chaos with Mitchell and

(04:42):
the Cavaliers because Spider, at the very beginning, it was
of the Jazz. He had his sight set. He had
a sight set for goff. Even though the Jazz had
good teams and they had great regular season teams and
good players around him, he did not want to be
in Salt Lake. He h had his eye back in
his his home area of the New York area. He
wanted to play in that region. And whether it was

(05:05):
the Knicks his preferred destination, I mean, we know this,
you pay attention, or the the Brooklyn Nets, and so
he wanted out of there, out of Utah. He ends
up making a stop in Cleveland, but it's really a
pit stop, is what it is. And Mitchell has played well.
He's only been there for a season. He played good
basketball and some of the nerds are saying that Mitchell

(05:27):
was actually better in a cadaver uniform than he was
with the Jazz in Salt Lake and Cleveland helped win
fifty He helped Cleveland win fifty games. Mitchell helping Cleveland
win fifty games for the first time in a season
without Lebron James since they had Mark Price and Brad
Doherty back in the early nineties. That's how long it

(05:50):
had been for a non Lebron team in Cleveland to
do that well. And so they have a nice roster.
It's not the greatest roster in the NBA. They have
some good young talent, but it doesn't matter. All of
that is subterfuge, all of it right, It's elevator music,
it's background noise. That's it. Because Donovan Mitchell, you could argue,
and I think I will argue, he needs to see

(06:12):
an optometrist because he's got a wandering eye. He's got
a wandering eye. He's peeking around the corner, just like
he did with the Utah Jazz. I buy it. I
buy it one hundred percent. Now he's he hasn't been
as outspoken as James Harden, as outspoken as Dame Lillard.
But if you're the Cavs, you make the call. You

(06:34):
could flip Mitchell right now to his preferred destination of
New York or one of the usual suspects Miami or
Boston or one of the LA teams, and you'd get
a goodie bag in return. Maybe you want the goodie bag,
maybe you don't want the goodie bag. But if you
wait a year, the price tag gets lower and you're
not gonna, in theory, get as much. Although it seems

(06:56):
like all of these NBA trades out outside of the
Rudy go Bear trade to Minnesota, which was highway robbery
if you love draft picks, but most of these other trades, eh,
he had a few first round picks, a couple of
pick swaps, and that's it. That's all you get now.
Page two. Here talking pro bouncyball reality TV star Mark Cuban,

(07:18):
and he moonlights as an NBA owner. But Mark Cuban
popped up on state sponsored NBA radio recently and he
said some things that caught my attention. He explained recently
that here's the chain of command, the Totem poll of
success in Dallas. He said that Kye Ray as in
Kyrie Irving has matured. Well, that's a headline. Kyrie is

(07:41):
matured to the point according to Cuban, where he knows
Kyrie knows it is Loucau's team. Cuban mumbled that as
he made this audio appearance, he said, Luca knows it.
It's Luca's team. Cuban sputtered. He also said that Kyle
knows this Lucas team and that's what it's important. That's

(08:03):
what is important. And he's willing to play more of
a shooting guard role and then when Luca's out, he
can have a point guard role. So the question how
do you decode the latest comments for Mark Cuban saying
that Kyrie Irving has matured and he knows the Mavericks
are Luca's team. So this is what's known as Mark

(08:26):
Cuban using positive affirmations. This is him throwing it out there. Yeah,
Kyrie gets it, He's matured. Is he fooling anyone? Maybe
the idiot in the back of the room is buying this.
Maybe there's an idiot back there, But it's just mumbo jumbo,
is what it is. Have have you seen any evidence

(08:48):
that Kyrie Irving has matured? I'm asking for a friend. Seriously,
let me pay attention to this stuff. Every night we
look for things to chat about. Kyrie pops up quite
a bit in the decision he makes don't seem to
be quite the greatest decisions on the planet. There and
Irving has consistently been preoccupied with other things, and as

(09:12):
a result, he has contaminated every team he's played for
since leaving Cleveland. And you could argue at the end
there he was also contaminating the Calves because he wanted
to get away from Lebron James, out of the shadow
of Lebron James. The timing worked out where he was
let out since he left Lebron's shadow. How's that working out?

(09:38):
Put up some great individual stats, Uncle Drew. So Mark
Cuban is trying to speak into existence a radical transformation
that there is zero evidence has taken place for Kyrie Irving.
That and eight dollars a month will get you paid
Twitter or x or whatever the hell it's called now.
Final thought, let's go now to the reigning finals. Envy

(10:00):
the joker, not a joking matter. The Serbian superstar Nikola
Jokic of your Denver Nuggets, his horse recently won a
race which allowed him to be given another trophy, and
he held said trophy. Now, how do we know he held
said trophy in Serbia because the Nuggets big Man not

(10:22):
only held this thing, but he was dancing around celebrating
this title. The video has gone viral, It's been seen
millions of times, allegedly in the matrix. So what did
you make of Nikola Jokic and his over the top
celebratory dance, his happy dance, his hug, his kiss, the
whole thing for winning the race, his horse winning the

(10:45):
race there and he celebrated its craziness absolutely crazy. So
Jokic watching this clip and I watched it several times
to do the proper amount of research because that's how
I operate. And Nikola Jokic his celebration on it wasn't
a dance floor, It was kind of It looked like
some kind of buffet type set up at an entertainment venue.

(11:11):
It didn't look like a dance floor to me. But
the raw emotion, the enthusiasm that the Joker had, And
I went back and I watched clips on YouTube. But
after the finals when Denver beat Miami and he did
not celebrate anywhere near the level of celebration he had

(11:33):
for his horse winning a race in Serbia. He kissed
this dude is buddy. I guess it's his business partner.
I would assume there and hug them, and I mean
this was vital to his existence. There was this music
playing in the background. It kind of sounded to me
like polka music. I don't know if that's big in Serbia,

(11:54):
but they like poka type music. It sounded like to me.
And he was dancing along there. He held that trophy
tighter than the Finals MVP. Remember the famous, the famous story.
After the NBA Finals he was given the Finals MVP trophy.
He left it. He just like left it. He didn't
really care about it that much. This trophy. He was
cuddling this like a newborn baby, protecting it from the world,

(12:15):
this horse racing trophy. And So my advice now of
the Nuggets to make sure that Nikola Jokic is happy
is you need to go out and you need to
build a nice barnyard outside the Denver Nuggets practice facility. There,
get a stable and allow Jokic to monitor his horses
right there in the Rocky Mountains. Because after winning the

(12:38):
NBA Finals. His next goal is not to win another
NBA Championship. It is to win the Kentucky Derby. That
is the next goal for the Joker. It is the

Speaker 1 (14:36):
And here is the Malor Riddle of the day. After
a pro bouncetball heavy Mallard monologue, the Malle Riddle of
the day. The Green Bay Packers recently purchased the company
that created blank. That is the riddle of the day.
Does anyone know the answer? The Finley fanatic account run

(14:58):
by Brian Finley says the first clone of Brian Finley
the Sawman Daddy. They bought the company that created Cottage cheese.
That that is the answer. Fer Dog says, the greatest
toy in history, ball in a cup is the answer.
Miguel on Fire says the company that created Aaron Rodgers

(15:20):
ayahuasca flavored soup. Southie Packers purchase. Who else do we have?
Page down? Page down? Courtesy Flusher says the Ben Maler
sock puppet is the correct answer. Water from concrete or
water from concentrate. Rather, that's from the Eddie Burner account.

(15:41):
Who else we have cheese curds filled with ranch? Wash
your mouth out with soap and water. Bagel Boy Belveda
guessed by Sean in Portland. Tater Totts guessed by the
Sir scratcher off parody account. Page down, page down, can't
can't read that one on the air, Rocky Mountain oysters
from troll House cookies that account. Who else? Eke got

(16:04):
it right? Bad job by him. Fudgie's going with cheese
Whiz as his answer. Who else do we have? Wisconsin
pickled cheese curds from Donkey's Sausage. Yeah, I've seen those
things and I was disgusted. I was at a store.
I was losing my brother in Wisconsin. I saw those
on the shelf, and I said, I went out, I
want none of that. Thundersticks guessed by Alf the Alien,

(16:27):
o Piner Milkman Mike and Colorado says the Green Bay
Packers bought the company that made catheters. That'd be interesting.
Black Steve the Second from North Carolina says the packers
bought the company that created ribbed condoms. Okay, Captain Kangaroo's
ping pong balls guessed by Inca Terror. Who else do
we have? Page down? Page? I think that's enough, Eddie.

(16:48):
Do you have an answer, Eddie? Please? I need an answer.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
Is it the company that makes those foam cheeseheads?

Speaker 1 (16:54):
You're going with foam cheeseheads? Eddie? Is that your final answer, Eddie? Yeah?
All right? That is is correct. That is correct. The
Green Bay Packers have purchased Foamation, not Foamation, Foammation, the
original creators of the iconic cheesehead hat, and that company

(17:15):
based in Milwaukee. The Packers announcing to their shareholders that
they have acquired Foamation, the company that created that cheesehead hat,
along with a whole host of foam products. Now, when
I visited lambeau Field last year, I visited the teams
store there for the Green Bay Packers, and they had

(17:35):
an entire wing of foam hats and merchandise and all
kinds of crap, all the.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
That's one of the best team stores I've ever been there.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
That's pretty nice store. It is a massive store. It
is the biggest store in all of Green Bay, the
Packer team store, as it should be. But this company,
I was reading about it. They originally started in nineteen
eighty seven. This guy thought it would be funny to
goof on the traditional Wisconsin sports fan. He made a

(18:07):
cheesehead hat out of he was re upholstering his mother's
couch and he's like, hey, he had this epiphany and ah,
goof on some fans in Wisconsin. So I'll I'll take
some foam. I'm gonna I'm gonna burn holes in it,
and then i'm gonna i'm gonna paint it yellow and
I'm gonna wear it. And he wore it to a

(18:28):
Brewers game. It was like one of a kind. People
loved it. Guy became a rock star tailgating at Brewers games.
And then you know, he said, wait a minute, I
can make some money. So he started selling so the
lesson of this is now that the packers have bought,
if you're interested in buying a cheesehead, buy it now
because the price is gonna go up now that the
packers own it, they'll double in price. They'll just keep

(18:51):
going up. And the guy said that the biggest customer
they had was the Green Bay Packers. That it wasn't
anybody else as you would have meatine right, the Brewers,
the Packers, Wisconsin anything, any Wisconsin sports teams, all rights
go to the phones, and we'll say hello to any
meanie Mineum, let's go to poppy picking with Poppy in

suffered the injury while sitting on a jet ski and

Speaker 1 (22:16):
You think that was a friend of his that did that.

Speaker 4 (22:19):
It wouldn't surprise me.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Yeah. Is he gonna file a lawsuit against somebody for
lost wages? Probably not? You don't think so?

Speaker 4 (22:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Probably not. You know how many billboard lawyers are out
there that would take a lawsuit from an NFL player?

Speaker 4 (22:34):
Yeah? Yeah, but I know I doubt it the league.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
If it wasn't a friend, if it was somebody that
had money, I'm gonna go yes.

Speaker 4 (22:41):
But yeah, it probably wasn't somebody who has money like he.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
Does, but wow, or he could sue a company or
somebody find somebody that has money to sue. All right,
go ahead.

Speaker 4 (22:50):

Lloyd Yates his.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
File and lawsuits. Never heard of him, Never heard him.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
He says that there was a brainwashing culture of hazing
and that the abuse became normalized. He is the first
plaintiff to identify himself in the lawsuit against the Lloyd Yates.

Speaker 1 (23:46):
So is this now a race to get into this lawsuit?
Because it's like gotta be a free for all.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
And I love the lawyer's comments about I mean, I
had to laugh. Oh he was talking about, how, you know,
the the quest for justice. Yes, and now it's like
he actually called it the me too movement for college athletes.
Any athletes out there that has been abused, join us

Oh my god, all right, it's not justice.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
I know.

Speaker 1 (24:26):

what it's all about. I'm sure they all have legitimate cases.

the cheesehead Kelly in Milwaukee. Hello, Kelly, welcome. Hi are you?

(25:09):
Are you a cheesehead expert? Kelly?

Speaker 10 (25:11):
Well, just I know you got the beginning of how
this started wrong. The thing was Jesse Ventura, the wrestler.
He was like the governor or the I don't know
something from Minnesota. I believe it was he called us
cheeseheads after we beat the Viking. But that's what happened.

Speaker 11 (25:35):
Then the guy got the idea and then.

Speaker 1 (25:37):
He started it all right, But I didn't get it wrong.
I just didn't tell that part of the story. But
the guy made it. He was messing around with his
mom's sofa and he had foam and yeah.

Speaker 10 (25:47):
But he got yeah, he got.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
Are you trying to Are you trying to touch up
my work here?

Speaker 3 (25:51):
Kelly?

Speaker 1 (25:51):
How dare you?

Speaker 10 (25:53):
I'm just I'm from Wisconsin area fan. I beleeve freedom.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
You didn't go we cut you open, you'll eat, You'll
ooze like a cheese curd, right, will come out of
you with that? Yes, I understand, I understand completely. All right, Well,
very good you you feel better now, Kelly? Do you
feel better? All right? So Jesse the body Ventura, that's
the guy right there, that's the guy. All right, thank you, Kelly,

(26:21):
have a thanks for listening. All right, go hang up
on you. Thank you all.

Speaker 5 (26:25):
I don't even know if that's true. That just seems
like a Packers fan delusion.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
I could see Jesse Ventura saying that, and he's in politics.
I don't know the timeline on that, but I don't
think she made that up.

Speaker 5 (26:38):
I'm just going off my rule as being a Lions
fan that most Packers fans don't know what they're talking about.

Speaker 1 (26:43):
Yeah, you're helping our audience. Let's go to who do
we have here? Let's say hello to supermarket Steve. Hello,
Supermarket Steve.

Speaker 7 (26:54):
Hey, Ben, I guess that's say was really right earlier?
You did take those meds.

Speaker 8 (26:58):
Because you waited all the way till monologue to finally
have an opinion about him, saying someone like Max Scherzer
the quitter, or Key k Hernan is the choke artist,
or even Joe Kelly, the guy with the glasses who
can barely even throw the ball over the plate and
blisters his finger every year.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
With yes, I am I have I have pill bottles
all over the studio. I am doing pharmaceuticals right now.

Speaker 7 (27:22):

Go get some Q tips and clean out your ears,
because what I said was that Tim Anderson had been terrible,
but his name had popped up on the trade market

listened with half an ear. Bad job by you. Woop

Orange County.
