Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our number three, as cunning as a fox. In
our three of the original Recipe podcast, the police in
Kentucky have released the arrest footage of Scotty Scheffler. How
does that change things? Seeing the video the police have
how does that change things?

Speaker 1 (00:19):
Now?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Scotty Scheffler's lawyer has doubled down on a no settlement
situation as that new arrest video emerges.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Your thoughts on this development?

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Also, well, tuks in baseball unlikely to adopt robot umpires
in twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
What's the real reason for the hold up? We'll discuss
that and.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
A whole lot more right now, as we can even
talk underwater if we have to. It's our number three
plus lame jokes here it is. Let's go to the videotape.
Welmeme and the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Maler Show.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
We are in the everywhar.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
As we crowd around, but I want you to know
we are ai free coast to coast, border, the border
and beyond on the mast and overwhelmingly powerful microphones of
FSR amminating live.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
From the Twister as we twist words.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
We're broadcasting live from the tire raq dot Com studios.
Tireract dot Com will help you get there an unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road hazard protection at over ten thousand
recommended installers. That's almost as many cars as the KC
car Haller has hauled in his career.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
Tire raq dot Com The Way tire Buying.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
Showb Bogee Bougee, Bougee Bougee. Our lead this hour from
the police blotter. We'll go to the audio tape. Nope,
the videotape. Bad boys, bad boys.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
What they're gonna do when they come for you? Golf.
When I think of thugs in sports, I think of golf.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
I do biggest thugs in sports, the criminal underground of golf.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
Terrible?

Speaker 2 (02:10):
All right, Anyway, Scottie Scheffler, this punk the world's number
one golfer is do in court on June third. This
is after the Louisville Police Department gave no indication that
the not one, not two, not three, but four charges
against the number one golfer in the world will be

(02:30):
dropped anytime soon.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
Now.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
I'm bringing this up because the cops held a news
conference because they wanted that TV exposure. I think the
mayor wanted the TV exposure in Louisville. This happened on Thursday,
So the game of news conference alongside the Mayor of Louisville,
the Great Craig Greenberg.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
No idea who that is now?

Speaker 2 (02:51):
The officials vowed to quote, respect the legal process, let
it play out.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
Love, Michaeliches, those are two great ones. Let's gonna let
a player.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
So they released not one, but two videos, one of
them from a fixed pole camera and another which is
the dash cam of the police car. They could not
release the officer's camera because he didn't turn it on.
So I don't know if you saw the videos. They've
been bouncing all over the place.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
I watched them.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
One is rather long, one is a little shorter. So
I don't know if you saw them or not. Maybe
you missed it. But here's how I saw it. As
we went to the video tape. And remember when I
first heard about this story, I said, well, Scotty Scheffler
is a dumbass.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
You know this is terrible based on the police report.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
So we saw the video and Scotty Scheffler was slowly driving.
And when I say slowly, I'm talking crawling like a
Toddler through his way. He was making his way into
the entrance of Valhalla in Louisville, and you can see
in the videos from a distance, but it appears you
can see an officer ran over and molly wopped his windshield.

(04:06):
We're not sure with what something. We're not sure what.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
It didn't really matter.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
So Scheffler then on the video, immediately stopped his vehicle
and was then detained and put in handcuffs shortly after that.
So let us discuss the question the Louisville Police releasing
the arrest footage of Scottie Scheffler, how does that development
change things in this story. So I've got Ronald McDonald, Belagio,

(04:36):
and Hobby Lobby, and we'll combine all of these things
together and we are going to make a banana cream
pie from Costco. In our production meeting, Kooper Loop and
Larna were advising me on the pie. I am considering
purchasing said pie this weekend, and they were advising me
what I can expect from the pie and what I

(04:59):
cannot expect from the pie. So I now have a
full understanding of the pie. That's what's called opposition research.
That's what's called scouting kids scouting a pie right now.
First of all, to answer the question the story changing
now because the police released the arrest footage, how does
that change things? Well, this was a major win for
Scotti Scheffler, and I'm pretty confident I'm not overreacting to that,

(05:24):
and I'm not being overly dramatic. And while he did
not have the charges dropped, and that ultimately is the
most important thing, from what we saw in the video,
the whole thing was overblown, completely overblown. The way the
story was presented and what's on the video, those two
things do not match up. Those are what's called polar opposites.

(05:46):
And I will garn f and t you if the
Louisville Police Department had better images and video, they would
have released them. They probably would have released them the
first day, but they didn't, and as a result.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
They released these videos.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Now, I will say, well, Scotti Scheffler does not look
as bad. I still say that Scheffler and the cop
both look like schmucks in this, and the cop actually
looks worse. Right, The video makes the Louisville police officer
look like Ronald McDonald, a total clown.

Speaker 1 (06:16):
And we support cops. We do.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
We absolutely support app But that said, the police report
and the video they released, those two things side by
side is the A word.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
It's absurd.

Speaker 2 (06:29):
It's absurd based on the available video. Again, this is
what they released. If they had better video, they would
have released the video. The police report that was sent
out a week ago. Total fabrication. Total fabrication. It appears,
based on my minutes long investigation of watching the video
and seeing the part of part of.

Speaker 1 (06:50):
The news comrace with the mayor, you have an.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Over zealous officer who is very talented at creative writing
on his police report.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
And so that's what you got. And you put those
two things together and Toada, you got the story that
we had. Now.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Secondly, Scotty Schefer's lawyer has doubled down, doubled down on
no settlement. A lot of people think Scheffler is just
gonna write a check. That's what usually happens here and
then your troubles go away or they get downgraded. The
lawyer is saying that's not gonna happen because in part

(07:29):
the new arrest video has emerged. What are your thoughts
on that development in this story?

Speaker 1 (07:35):
So here's what I.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
Think of that As it stands now, Scotty Scheffler is
still in a whole lot of trouble. He's facing a
number of charges, as we said, but the big one
is second degree assault of a police officer. In the
state of Kentucky. Second degree assault is a Class C
felony which carries a maximum sentence of wait for it,

(08:00):
up to ten years in prison. Now he's not gonna
get even if he got convicted on all charges, he's
not gonna get ten.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Years in prison.

Speaker 2 (08:09):
There's also a fine of ten thousand dollars, which I
believe last time Scotty Scheffler took a dump, ten thousand
dollars came out of his took us. Now nevertheless, all right,
Scheffler's attorney in this story, if you're the attorney, if
you're the defense attorney and you saw the video, you
are at the Bellagio.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
High limit poker. You are holding a royal flush in
your hands.

Speaker 2 (08:32):
You've got the Ace, the King, the Queen, the jack,
the ten, all of the same suit, all of it.
I'll tell you why the video benign. It's benign. The
man the cop who arrested Scotti. Scheffler also has a
long history of not exactly being the most upstanding boy

(08:52):
scout of a cop and my favorite and all these
stories pop up on the internet. But this guy, at
one point you talk about like a hillbilly movie of
a cop. He once got in trouble as a police
officer for doing donuts with a drunk guy. Not a cop,
just a drunk civilian in his cop car. Let me

(09:15):
repeat that. So this guy, as a cop, thought it
was a good idea.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Let's go on and do some donuts in the cruiser,
the police cruiser with some drunk civilian. What could possibly
go wrong.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
There's also the other layer to this cake that the
PGA tour is going to put pressure on the city
of Louisville Valhalla, a big part of the golf world,
and they'll freak out the politicians there that they might
lose not only that but other large events. But when
you mix all of those ingredients together, based on what

(09:52):
we know now, and maybe something else will change that
down the line, but based on what we know now,
this is an unwinnable case and any district attorney would
know they can't win this case.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
You can't, you can't do it. No jury is going
to convict Scotty Scheffler on the felony charge. It's just
not gonna happen.

Speaker 3 (10:12):
Now.

Speaker 2 (10:12):
What should have happened here, and I would have been
fine with is the cop because the Scheffler should not have.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
Gone down that road. There was a guy that got
killed there and he didn't know it at the time.
But you can't.

Speaker 2 (10:25):
You can't go where you're not supposed to go, and
he should have known better. So you write a ticket, right,
you read it to you didn't follow the cops instructions,
or you just chew his ass out and read him
the Riot Act and all that for not paying attention.
But instead they charged him with a felony and that's
how they did it. And it would have been fine

(10:47):
if the video had matched up with the police report,
but he didn't.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
And so now we have the situation. We have final thought.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
We're gonna pivot to Major League Baseball Basic League Baseball
Commissioner Rob Manford, or as we call man Fraud.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
He said this week that robot umpires, you know.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
Those robots that are taking over our whole world, that
robot empires are unlikely unlikely. Rob Manford said robot umpires
unlikely to be introduced during the twenty twenty five season,
he said, because there's not been as much progress in
the minor leagues this year, is major League Baseball hit hoped?

Speaker 1 (11:27):
So they're still in the he claims, the beta testing
phase for the robots. So Major League Baseball is.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Saying again for those of you in the back of
the room, that it is unlikely they will adopt the
robot umps in twenty twenty five. But what's the real
reason for the whole up. I'm not buying what the
commissioners said. That to me sounds like spin spin spin,
spin spin spin. So my theory on this, and I'm
never wrong about these things because it's my theory. How

(11:56):
can I be wrong about my own theory that the
WEASLEYU Commissi of Major League Baseball who defended and protected
and ran the interference for the cheating Astros.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Rob Manford the biggest ass one thousand and two one
thousand hole fan there is. I think I believe Manford's
getting pushed back. And while very few people have gone
on the record and said publicly that they don't like this,
the silent majority of baseball doesn't like it. People in
general don't like change and they're they're not gung ho

(12:30):
about automation in baseball. And there is one storyline that
has popped up and I totally buy it.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
And I don't know if you saw this or not
or heard about.

Speaker 2 (12:42):
It, but there is a big problem that a number
of the nerds in baseball have, and a handful of
players with robot umpires.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
They're complaining about the fact that they'll have to no
longer go to hobby lobby. Know what do I mean
by that? You know you're a hobby lobby. You can
get a frame.

Speaker 2 (13:03):
They have a good section of frames, but they'd have
to get rid of the frame section of Major League
Baseball because there would be no reason to frame pitches.
The whole art of framing pitches is to convince a
human being that you have gotten a strike when the
pitch was not in the strike zone. But if you
don't have a human being, assuming the algorithm goes generic,

(13:29):
it doesn't matter. Robots will mean the catching position. You
don't need defense. Who needs defense? You just sit back
there and it can be a Beer League bopper. If
you're a defensive first catcher who's claim to fame is
I don't hit very well. But man, am I good
at framing pitches and I'm really great?

Speaker 1 (13:50):
Who needs you? You don't need that because it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
He just put a fat guy out there to put
his glove where the strike zone is and if the
bitcher hits it, done, and if he doesn't hit it,
it's not like you can put the glove back in
and get the call.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
You understand, I think you understand. It is the Ben
Mahlor Show.

Speaker 2 (14:11):

Uh?

Speaker 7 (19:54):
Yes, I'm gonna say that he found a Burmese Python's.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
I answer, Eddie, But that's unfortunately incorrect. It's also not
not a shamboo plushy. Guessed by it, just like Frank
the correct answer. Dolphin linebacker Jalen Phillips found a large
iguana crawling out of his toilet. A large iguana.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
I would scream, right, oh man, how does that happen?

Speaker 2 (20:24):
How does the iguana get into the plumbing? How does
that it happens in Florida all the time. You see
his snakes or I haven't seen too many iguana stories.
But imagine you're sitting there for a while, playing on
your phone. You know a lot of people go to
the bathroom playing the phone when they're in the you know,
taking care of business. And you're there for a while,
you flush a couple of times, and then you don't look,

(20:44):
and then like something starts crawling up.

Speaker 1 (20:46):
That's what that's like, right out of a horror movie. Right.
Have you seen the photo on that Lorraina. No, I
have not.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
You have not, all right, let me send that over
to you. Uh, I've got it right here.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
I will send it Eddie. Would you like to see? Also, Eddie,
would you would you like to see the larger water?
Have you found the video? Any?

Speaker 7 (21:03):
I'm good? Thank you?

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Come on the Cicada thing. You see the bus driver
sent the Cicada story old news.

Speaker 1 (21:10):
Bus driver? Did you see that? No?

Speaker 7 (21:11):
I almost saw the incident and I quickly scrolled through it.

Speaker 2 (21:17):
No, I'm saying, but the bus driver sent it. I
thought you were on the text, Chaine, the bus driver sent.
I know Cook was on there.

Speaker 7 (21:22):
I guess I wasn't.

Speaker 1 (21:23):
Oh, you weren't on there, Cooper, you you were on there, right,
the bus driver? No, what I know? I wasn't the
only one on there.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
I think you guys didn't you didn't check your phones.
He sent it to me, but I know other people.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
I thought. I thought you and Eddie.

Speaker 7 (21:37):
If he sent it as a text, I definitely did
not get it.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
No. Yeah, I have not received anything. Do you want
to I'll send this to Coop because Eddie's a Eddie's
whipping out on this. I swear I'm not imagining that.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
I got a text from our guy, the bus driver,
and he sent he sent the video.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
But anyway, whatever, who cares?

Speaker 2 (21:57):
Uh, there you go. The answer was a very large one.
How big is that iguana?

Speaker 1 (22:01):
How do you think that's like a like a foot
long iguana. I'm waiting for this to open. But I
was in Guatemala. Well right there, when you start a
story with when I was in Guatemala, you know it's
gonna be good.

Speaker 7 (22:12):
Yeah, and uh, oh my gosh, they had the biggest
iguanas I've ever seen in my life. That's actually that's
actually a small iguana.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
They're as big as my thigh ben and then the
male the tail alone is super long, like four arm long.
Coop's not impressed with the iguana. He's not. Didn't think
that's an impressive iguanda.

Speaker 3 (22:33):
I mean, get huge, like it wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (22:37):
Even but it wouldn't. Maybe it was too big exactly.
So that's like a little baby iguana. You think the
iguana was like born in the sewer and swam. You
think that's what happened with iguana. That is a big
iguana is in my toilet.

Speaker 7 (22:50):
I'm screaming and I'm burning down the bathroom seems a
little bit of an overaction.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
I don't think that's extreme at all. Bigger but so much.

Speaker 7 (23:02):
It's not like it's it's not like it's a venomous
cis snake or something.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Why don't we have a why don't we have an iguana?
Call up your crawl up your keyster? Theready? How about that?

Speaker 7 (23:12):
She said, bite, not crawl up your keyster.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
I mean, well, I mean that's you know, I'm just saying,
what is this. I'm trying to find the text from
a birth. I swear you guys were on uh.

Speaker 7 (23:23):
Maybe you were hallucinating after you ate all those mushrooms
or something.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
Yeah, I hung out. I hung out in a some mushrooms.
Yeah all right, Well I don't see it, so maybe
it didn't happen. I swear I sucked because I was like, wow,
that's an old story. He sent me an old story.
He's like wow, okay, And I was gonna do that
douchebag thing of texting back saying we talked about that
last night, but I didn't right back, so it didn't
happen anyway.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
It is the Ben Malor Show. We do have blame
jokes coming up in a bit. Let's say hello to
our buddy Jbone, who is in Portland. Hello, Jbone?

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Hey man, are you doing's a crew?

Speaker 1 (23:55):
If I was any better, Jbone, I would be a man,
but not weed man. You know.

Speaker 3 (24:01):
Yeah, that sound good. So I have some news for you.
But the poutine, I don't know if you've heard about
it is not in Costco up there?

Speaker 1 (24:09):
Oh oh, why not?

Speaker 3 (24:12):
I have no idea. But I have some good news
of the silver lining. If you can make it to
Portland on September fourteenth, there is a main poutine festival
going on. Oh oh, I think that's that's after many vendors.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Yeah, man, I would, I would love it.

Speaker 2 (24:31):

the Chef boy r D Empire, hanned his famous sauce
to supply rations to the US troops the boys overseas
there in World War Two. Do you think the soldiers

he put all kinds of hot sauce on his eggs
of stuff. And he said it was kind of hold
over stuff from you know, army food that had no taste,
so you wanted to put anything on it you could.

US government, right, I would think, you know, maybe not.
