Hello and welcome. It's our dumb berth three.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
As we cruise around the sports take Junkyard here an
hour three a Hodgepodge Hodgepodge. We start in Baltimore, where
the football team is making headlines. How do you decode
Lamar Jackson's response to missing his Ravens.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Workout roster bonus?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
He did get asked the question and he gave a answer,
non answer. Joey Chestnutt is going to take on Kobe
Yashi in a winner take all hot dog eating contest.
It's gonna be on Netflix. You fancy a thought on
this one? And we'll go to Major League Baseball. There
are reports bouncing around the pinball machine of sports talk
(00:49):
that a lot of chatter about the San Francisco Giants
planning a shopping spree going after both Juan Soto and
Pete Alonzo when they hit the market. We'll talk about
that and much more right now, give it up. Plus
ask Ben our number three, the MVP on the field,
(01:09):
but not when it comes to his finance, is well gome.
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malor Show,
we are in the air everywhere as we sculpt our
takes and we know it's better to bend then break.
(01:29):
Coast the coast, border, the border, and beyond on the
vast and absurdly powerful microphones of fsre amminating live from
the tongue the slip of the tongue. We're broadcasting live
from the tire rack dot Com studios.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
We'll help you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping,

almost as many comments as check in LA has sent

The Way Tire Buying Show B. We'll get back to
the pronouncing ball in a moalmouth. The Boston Celtics have
(02:13):
the mav Rex on the ropes and they're about to
bring in some clergy here to give the Mavericks last rights.
So our lead this hour, though, is not from probouncy Ball.
It's about the bonus baby who wasn't a bonus baby.
What a boondoggle this story has turned out to be
so NFL Dayline Baltimore Ravens quarterback and a multiple MVP winner,
(02:33):
Lamar Jackson. I remember this, We mentioned it a while back,
but Lamar Jackson's contract. The minutia in his contract, Lamar
is contract fully guaranteed workout bonus of seven hundred and
fifty thousand dollars. So the way these things work, all
you have to do is participate. It's a participation award.
(02:58):
You show up to at least eighty percent of the
air quotes voluntary offseason workouts and tendah your pass go
and you get that big giant bonus and fumbau he
fumbled the bag Fumbleuski fumblerouski of the bag. Now, speaking
to reporters at the team's mandatory mini camp in Maryland,
(03:22):
Lamar Jackson was asked by friend of the show and
longtime Baltimore muckrecor Sports With Coleman about his financial snaffoo.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Did you hear what he said? No? Perhaps not so.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Lamar Jackson declined to address the loss of seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars of his money. He wasn't hurt,
he wasn't sick, he just didn't show up, he said. Quote,
I never discussed my contract act up here, Lamar snickered.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I'm not about to start today.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Jackson also said, when asked about holding offseason workouts with
his teammates to help the bond continue in Baltimore. He
said that the workouts will only happen if his Ravens
teammates travel to his house in South Florida. Okay, so
let us discuss the question, how do you decode Lamar
(04:29):
Jackson's response to missing his Ravens roster bonus, his workout
bonus he just didn't bother to collect.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
So I've got State.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Farm, red Onion, and Bride'smaids, and we will combine all
of these things together and we are going to throw
an audio Haymaker is what we're going to throw. So,
first of all, Lamar Jackson rambling a mixture of cliches
(04:59):
and other random thoughts are not going to get it done.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Lamar knew the question was coming.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
The only one with balls enough to ask the question
was our friends Sports with Coleman, Jerry Coleman. And nobody
else was gonna ask that question. They're all trying to
curry favor with Lamar. So one guy had the balls
to ask the question, and Lamar got asked the question,
and he gave a canned ham type answer, boiler plate
smoke screen, the old non answer answer.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And when you're that evasive to a simple question.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
By giving the non answer answer, you're really speaking your mind.
You're letting us all know, Hey, I'm a moron, and
I just don't want to say I'm a more. This
is a gigantic financial blunder. The word boondoggle is not enough.
This is a hum dinger of a story, and it's.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Not getting talked about enough.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Lamar Jackson refusing to answer questions because.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
He embarrassed himself.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
He lost seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and he
can't fire his agent because his.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Mom is his agent.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Hello, the matriarch of the Jackson family is the one
that helped negotiate the contract with some lawyers from the
NFL Players Association. So does that mean his mamu has
some explaining to do that with proper guidance, any representation
worth their salt, We'll say he all right, listen here,
(06:35):
you got a roster bonus. You got to show up
this number of days that just make sure you're there.
You'll get the money. Come by hook or crook. You're
going to get the money, get the whole shebang. And
instead Lamar Jackson went state farm. Now he doesn't have
a deal with State Farm, but he left seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in a ditch on the side
(06:55):
of the road for no apparent reason, the discount with
no double check.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
If he had double checked, he would have he would
have gotten the money.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
He gave a multi billion dollar franchise, the Baltimore Ravens,
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars back as a donation.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Who does that?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
No one, Well, I guess, Lamar. And to put in perspective,
how large that amount of money is. That payout was
larger than the jackpot for the Massachusetts Megabucks lottery and
the Maryland Multi Match Lottery.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Both those lotteries.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
The Maryland Lottery was five hundred twenty thousand on Wednesday,
and the Massachusetts Megabucks was six hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And Lamar, he won the lottery again. And he's, yeah,
I got something else to do.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'm good, My goodness, all right, he said, Audios, smooth
Chacho's all right.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Secondly, we head to the all you can eat buffet,
the gift that keeps giving. The day after his deportation
from the famous Athan's Hot Dog eating contest, because he
made a deal with the Devil the vegans, Joey Chestnut,
Joey Jaws took a bite out of a sweetheart deal.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
We learned mentioned this earlier. We'll get a little deeper
into it, deeper in the weeds.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Joey Chestnut and Kobyashi mythical figures for someone like me
that's a fanboy of Major League eating. Could have been
my sport as a kid, could have done it. Joey
Chestnut Kobyashi. They are at the very top of the
universe when it comes to Big league eating, and they
are ready to go mono a modo in the same
(08:36):
arena for the first time in fifteen years.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I was a little child the last time they got together.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
They will go belly to belly in an all beef
hot dog Battle Royal. It's gonna be a humdinger of
an event. September second is the date on this. It
is a made for TV event. The good people over
at Netflix are getting in this now. Joey Chestnut versus
Kobyashi winner take all hot dog eating contest on Netflix again.
(09:07):
Do you fancy a thought on this one? Yes, I
have several thoughts. First, I'm excited, I do have mixed
emotions on this. I love the fact that Netflix is
now getting into sports and they're not giving us the
same old crap repack. It's like they wanted to put
that Mike Tyson fight on against some punk YouTuber. I
don't know those All those Paul brothers look to say
(09:28):
to me, I don't know which one there, but they're
both annoying. You want to punch him in the face
and Tyson I have the chance to do that if
his body holds together.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So that was the big reveal from Netflix.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
And now they want to put this together Joey Chestnut
and Kobyashi, and I'm in.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I think this is great on the surface, it's going
to be epic. It's certainly worth my time. I don't
know if it's musty TV.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
It's close.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
I mean, Kobyashi was the original Glizzy Goat. He was
the king, as the kids say. Regardless of that, when
you peel back the red onion, he peel back the
red onion, you realize the parade has passed Kobyashi by.
And if I'm not mistaken, and maybe I'm wrong on this,
I swear I remember reading on the interweb in May
(10:11):
a couple months back or was that last month?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I think it was last month. I think it was
like a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
That they had a documentary on there and Kobyashi, if
I'm not mistaken, retired from Major League eating and then
knock knock, who's there, Netflix, here's a bag of money.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I'm back. Yeah, But Joey Chestnut is at the summit
of the game.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
He's in the game. And Chestnut, the stuff this guy
does is insane. I've read about his strengthen strengthens his esophagus.
He starts his every morning. Every morning he chugs a
gallon of water. That's how he starts, to say, one
gallon of water. And he does rhythmic burping exercises throughout
(10:58):
the day. I mean dedication. At any moment, he could
drown from drinking one gallon of water while Kobayashi's golfing
somewhere all right.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Final thought?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Major League Baseball, talking bass ball?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Where are you at?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
On?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
A lot of noise, A lot of chatter bouncing around
the pinball machine in baseball that a piranha is circling
around looking to take a bite out. A couple stars,
the San Francisco Higantes are planning a massive shopping spree.
There multiple reports connecting the Giants to making a big
(11:39):
time offer to Juan Soto and Pie Alonzo, some even
saying the Giants.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Are likely to trade for Peter Alonzo even though they suck.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
They want to have him in San Francisco to see
how much you know, if he likes it, if it's
a good match, and then they can offer him a
big contract in free agency. To so to answer the
question the Giants going big after Soto and Peter A.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Lonzo, we fully expected.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
The San Francisco baseball team has been If you look
at what they've done in recent years, they've been bridesmaids
the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
They are a faceless franchise. The Hoy Peloy.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There they went after Aaron Judge. That was an Arson situation.
Shout out John Hymen or Hayman or whatever his name is,
Aaron Judge or Arson Judge, remember that stayed in the Bronx.
They agreed and said, psych to that cheating a hole.
This is the greatest thing the Giants have ever done.
They agreed to a.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Contract with that cheating a hole, Carlos Correa from Houston.
And then I know.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, he was with Minnesota time, but he's out. He'll
always be tarnished and stained as an a hole from Houston.
But he then signed with youughs with the Giant with
the Giants, and then they got out of the contract,
so get out here. And then this year they got
the Booby Prize. Blake Snell, who's the Booby bra I
(13:00):
ain't playing unless I get mine. I'm risking my life braw. Yeah,
So the Giants, I've seen a few of the actually
liked the Giants broadcasters on TV and radio.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
I think they have really good broadcasters.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
I think they have, but I don't want to say
what I was about to say because I might get
in trouble with some people. But they have really good broadcasts.
And you know, they're old.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Dudes now, they've been doing it for a million years
and they're good at it.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I remember when years ago John Miller, who does radio
for the Giants, and he was in Baltimore and there
were some rumors that he was looking to leave the Orioles,
And I remember the Angels were looking for a play
by play guy at the time.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And I was like, Hey, why don't you get John Miller.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
I guess he's got ties to northern California, so maybe
that was never a factor. But the person I talked
to with the Angels was like kind of rolled their
eyes at me.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
It's like it was good. But anyway, Uh, that's a
side note. That's like a side dish. But the Giants,
I've watched him. I watched baseball flipping around.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I watched a couple of games at night, and the
Giants have no one who's any good.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
They don't.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
They're they're playing Tiddler, while the Dodgers are Jedis. They're
Jedi knights, and so yeah, do I think they're planning
a shopping spree? Absolutely, why wouldn't they. They've got money,
they got a beautiful ballpark. The teams really just boring,
and they don't have stared at least a couple of stars.
A couple stars. You can only eat so many garlic
(14:19):
fries at the ballpark. There it is the Ben Mahlor Show.

Speaker 3 (21:28):
P I.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
What does that mean.
Speaker 8 (21:35):
I want to take a guest. I think it means
that he has a I come up and play a
fake football game in front of him, and he calls
the fake game live.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
You know, Okay, that's not it's not right. Okay, thanks, Yeah,
says I'm about to start. I know it was a
good effort, he says.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I'm about some of my broadcasting career on Fox, and
I'm using AI in the preparation for that so I
can better understand the matchups, the plays, the different situations
that come up in the game.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
Hold on, I still don't understand what that means.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Why does Tom Brady need does he didn't he play
quarterback for like thirty years? He needs AI to better
understand the game. I'm confused by that. I don't understand.
But that's what he said. You know what this is
this guy has too much money. Brady is so fricking rich.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
I hate when that happens.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
I know, like, I'll never use it. I can't afford AI, EDDI.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
You know that, and so that's why the company I
always tell the companies that you pay me more money.
But I'm gonna change it, and I say we don't
want you to change. Man, we won't you say the
same the same way you are, and so we're not
gonna pay the big money like Calward.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
Let's just say, for example, I wanted to use AI
for something. Do I go to the AI store? Where
do I? Where do I get?
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Even?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I know there's apps you can get and it's it's rudimentary.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
AI, though, is what it is. It's not it's not great.
It's gonna be really good. We'll be dead by the
time it's really really good. But it's it's it's fine
for what it is.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
You know, I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
If I was in school, I would have cheated on
every you know, every paper I had to write. I
would have a I write it. But it didn't exist
in my day, and so I was a terrible student.
But but yeah, the AI thing, I don't know it
helps you A was abroad. I guess maybe he wants
to know. I don't know, like what what would I'm
trying to Let's let's walk through this. So Brady's on
his computer at his fourteen thousand square foot Brentwood match.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Do you see that he's moving to Brentwood.
Speaker 7 (23:32):
I didn't see that.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, welcome. Well, he's one of his many houses.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
He's building a they're building a fourteen thousand square foot
Brentwood mansion.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
It's almost complete. And now I think of Brentwood, Eddie,
you know what I think of?
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Right?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a long that's a long
time ago when OJ cut two people's heads off. Now
they're all dead, but that's a long time back. Anyway,
Brady's using it. Can we move on from that, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (23:58):
Or you want me to spend mon Well, if you
are looking for my permission, yes you may move off
from that. All right.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Let's go to a man now who was very bragged nocious.
He called up and said his team was going to
win the NBA Championship, and they in game one they
were punched in the eye, in Game two they were
slapping across the face, and in game three they were
needing the nuts. Let's say hello to Texas Jack, Hello, Texas.

Speaker 7 (24:25):
Hole that it goes with the job?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I don't care. It goes with the job.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
With the job layoff of Luca Man. He leads all
scores of the entire freaking Finals, but you got it.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
How's he doing in there? How's he done in the
fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Well, he's got eight points in the fourth quarter, the
in the finals combined, he's three of fifteen from the
floor in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
I did I did that earlier in hour or two.
Did well.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
One of my favorite baseball players when I was a kid,
there was a picture for the Atlanta Braves named Terry
Forster and they called him the big fat tub of
goo and uh and that.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Was a great nickname. And so I think Luca big
fat Tubago. I think it works.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Yeah, Yeah, are you going?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Are you going to now admit Texas?
Speaker 3 (25:19):

golden take if you say it, Jack, go ahead, say it.

Speaker 7 (25:26):
It's over.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I will not say it. Say it Jack, say it Jack.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
It's over.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Not yet. It ain't not yet.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
History is to be made, that's all, not by these guys.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
An opportunity, that's all it is.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
You keep telling you keep telling yourself, Johnny. Well, yeah,
it doesn't look good at all. It's a disasters anyway.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Yeah, all right, but I can't I can't give up
on my team.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Well, they've given up. You should be.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
You hard. You make it hard to like you sometimes.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
I know, sometimes come down, Come down over there, Eddie.
All right, Jack, hanging there. I don't know what do
you What do you want me to tell you? What
do you want me to tell you?
Speaker 7 (26:12):
Jack?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I don't know what to tell you. The team sucks.
The guys vanished in the second I mean, it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Matter who does good and who doesn't. I mean, Kyrie
does good and you pick on Luca.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I mean, well, Kyrie didn't do well in the second
half of this game either. But people look at the.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Oil, but the rest of your team on your back.
You're tired in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Okay, that's why. So you're admitting he's out of shape.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
I got you, Michael Jordan.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I don't remember him getting tired in the fourth Maybe
he did. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I don't recall that happening. So all right, I hang it, Jack,
I feel like you want to punch me. Go ahead,
punch me, Jack, go ahead, punch me, punch me, punch me.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Let me.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
I'll give you.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I'll give you, aug I'll give you.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Okay, Well, I'll get out when it's over. I don't
advise you. I don't want you to listen to my
NBA Finals monologue when the Mavericks lose the final. Well,
it probably won't happen till Sunday night, because it will
happen on Friday, and I'm not on Friday and Saturday.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
So I thank you.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Now, we didn't tell you about the Mets Marlins game,
and we're not going to give you the score now,
But did you see, Ben, there was a special first
pitch in the game. I did see this Grimace from
from McDonald's the first pitch.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
He's the fat ass purple he's the giant purple guy.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I don't know what he is actually, and it's weird,
but purple monsters.
Speaker 7 (27:49):
Yeah, it's a very unusual thing. But uh, Grimmace, not
too bad.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
You know'retty good, better than you, better than you.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
That's not true. That's not true. But I just made
me think. We've seen some horrific first pitches.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
And most of them met Mets games.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
That's true for some reason. But here's a here's a
person in a giant purple suit. Looking out of the
mouth of this thing, probably can barely see. It's got
like gloves on, like fuzzy gloves on. And they actually
and Grimace actually threw a better pitch than like fifty
cent and Carl Lewis and the Baba Booie and all
these guys.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Is there's a conspiracy theory, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (28:26):
Oh, that of course there is.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
There was a ringer that big Burger McDonald's put a
ringer in the costume.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
And that's how.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
Who do you think it was?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I don't know, maybe one of the like the mets
infielders that wasn't playing, was in the costume.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Now, is that?
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Who's your favorite McDonald's land character where we were kids
when these came out, Eddie mcdaniell, I was always a
fan of I loved the Hamburglar who they were criminal.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Big fan of that.
Speaker 7 (28:57):
I'll go with the fry guys.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
What Mayor Mayor mcchee's I used to have a program
director we called Mayor mccheese.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
He looked like he looked like maryor mcchee.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Yeah, maryor mc che' is kind odd because you know,
his head was made out of a Hamburger.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Yeah, but that was the same member Officer Big Mac.
Speaker 7 (29:14):
I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
You don't remember. That was early eighties at Officer Big Mac.
Speaker 7 (29:19):
Big Mac off to google it.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Just google. It looked a lot like Mayor McGee's we had,
but he had a police uniform.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Have they added any new characters like Sesame Street? We
learned a couple days ago that Sesame Street had.
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Know Lorena, do you take your daughter in McDonald's. Does
she like McDonald's.
Speaker 8 (29:35):
Shockingly, she doesn't like McDonald's.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Wow, Sing, I know she's not a normal kid.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
These kids have These kids have changed Eddy.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (29:43):
I just don't understand the why they'd bring back Grimace
and why they wouldn't bring back the Hamburglar.
Speaker 7 (29:48):
You know, is the Hamburglar been canceled?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Well, they did get I think they brought him back
a couple of years ago, so I think he might
be back. But I'm pretty sure that Officer Big Mac
is not back.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
He's been retired.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
McDonald says, Bob McDonald's defunded the police before everyone.
Speaker 7 (30:08):
The hamburg.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Much like modern society.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Crimerald's running free us just to do whatever the hell
you want. Knock yourself out, Okay, have we spent enough
time on Grimace throwing out the first pitch? I think
we I think we have Eddie. I think We've done
enough far. Let's have some fun here. Fun fact, all right,
fun fact. Joe Missoula. He's the head coach of the
(30:34):
Boston basketball team. Coach Mizula loves to use motivational techniques
to get his team fired up for games. We told
you in a previous episode he's had his team watch
killer shark videos to learn how to have that killer instinct.
And now Joe Mizula having his team watch UFC fights
during the finals the NBA Finals. Why, Joe Mizula said,
(30:59):
the closer you are to beating someone in the UFC,
the closer you are to getting your ass kicked. That
is the quote there from Joe Missoula. And here's a
bonus fun fact. Bonus fun fact. Bonus fun fact. The
Atlanta Braves have lost five games in a row for
(31:20):
the first time since the Astros. We're banging on trash
cans in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Yeah, it's been a while. It's been a minute, been
a minute since they were that bad.
Speaker 2 (31:34):

rest of the hour, It's ask Ben.

on asked Ben.
Speaker 9 (32:54):
All right, Cowboy Killer would like to know.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
How about Hi, Cowboy Keller?
Speaker 10 (32:58):
Hi, do you prefer chips and salsa or the artichoke
dip for an appetizer?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, I'm not against the artist choke dip. It's not
my favorite. I prefer chips and salsa, Eddie.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
Generally speaking, I would go chips and salsa.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I can't go wrong with chips and salsa, Loraina.
Speaker 7 (33:18):
I'm disappointed in both.
Speaker 8 (33:20):
Right, Oh my gosh, artichoke dip all the way. And
you know what I really like when like I think
it's Chilis and Applebee's, they also give you a side
of salsa with your artichoke dip, so you get both.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
You're on the wrong side of history of lorena. That's
that's fine.
Speaker 10 (33:35):
Artichoke dip is fantastic. I love artichoke dip so good.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
I don't hate it, but it's not mine my favorite.
What is next? It's ask Ben your questions all answers
for the rest of the hour, King Rory would like
to know. Hi, King Rory.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
Do you properly use your turn indicators while driving?
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Yes? And it annoys the hell out of me.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
If if you're gonna drive like a douche canoe, at
least have the courtesy of signaling when you're about to
cut me off. It is beyond It drives me nuts.
You're driving. It's like being Butcher in Germany and driving
the autobon at night in la and during the day
you don't get anywhere during the day because there's traffic.
But at night, when we're driving around in the early
(34:22):
morning hours, you can actually drive and it's like the autobond,
but at least signaling. It is so lazy. I hate it,
so yeah, I signaled. What about you, Eddie, I would
agree with that.
Speaker 7 (34:32):
I would probably even say that I use it even
when I don't really have to. But it's a good
habit to get into it.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Yeah, you don't want to stop using it because yeah, yeah, boy,
you guys are boomers.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
What about you, Lorena, Well.
Speaker 8 (34:43):
Ben always return my cart.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
I also don't, Lorain.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
It's only when I know I'm really making a very
dedicated move.
Speaker 9 (34:58):
I'm not.
Speaker 8 (34:59):
I'm not you have to give a warning I'm getting over.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
No, it's so bad.
Speaker 9 (35:07):
Uh. For the most part, I'd say the only times
that I maybe don't use it is if I'm like
in a left turn lane that you can only turn
left in, you know what I mean, Like you're waiting
for the left turn arrow, Like I don't necessarily have
it on when I'm sitting in that lane.
Speaker 10 (35:21):
Everybody's going left.
Speaker 7 (35:24):
That's that's just.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
Rain.
Speaker 7 (35:27):
Is not courteous.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
Told me, I don't have to if i'm lane.
Speaker 7 (35:32):
I'm not kidding.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I'm not kidding.
Speaker 8 (35:33):
If you're in the lane with the arrow, you do
not have to use your blinker.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah yeah, good cock gone bad bad apples there?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Now? What what about?
Speaker 2 (35:44):
Now? I was told, and I don't know if this
is true or not, that if you're in the left
turn lane, but you're going to make a U turn,
you shouldn't signal because you're making the U turn, So
that's a sign you're going to make a U turn
to the people that are turning.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Right into the oncoming traffic. About that, I don't know
if that's true. Somebody told me that years ago, and
I've just I've operated that way Uh, Coop, have you
answered this?
Speaker 3 (36:06):
I don't. Yeah, you did.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
What's next?
Speaker 10 (36:08):
Art Puffin would like to know. I want somebody to
fact check Loraina. By the way, Art Puffin wants to
know what was the first Super Bowl that you watched?
Speaker 1 (36:19):
That is a good question. Now watched or remember?
Speaker 6 (36:22):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Because I think I remember they were like the Giants
and Broncos.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
I mean in the I remember what.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
I know.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I watched the Rams as a kid, but I don't
remember it.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
So they were in there played the Steelers, but I
don't really remember that, So I guess the one I
kind of fond memories up because I got a T
shirt from it. My mom made a big deal to
go down to the store. We paid like four bucks
for a T shirt. Was I think it was the
made the like mid eighties Giants and Broncos.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
I think I think guys bring it. What about you, Eddie?
You probably you're older than me.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:56):
I think it's part of the reason why I was
a Steelers fan. Steelers Rams in nineteen eighty was the
first one I really remember, and I was like, Oh,
I like that team. They won. I'm going to be
a fan of that team.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
I did a radio show with Terry Bradshaw years ago.
He said, if he had known I was a little
fat kid watching, he would have.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Thrown the game for the Rams. That's what he told me. Yeah,
I'm not making that fighter. He did tell me that.
I think he might have been kidding, though, I have
no idea. Doesn't hear the Super Bowl? Okay?
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Have you ever watched the Super Bowl?
Speaker 10 (37:23):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Just for the commercials.
Speaker 8 (37:25):
See the commercials? Yeah, so the halftime show with the game.
Speaker 7 (37:28):
Yeah, all right, the cool Broncos Packers?
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Oh yeah, late? Was that late nineties?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (37:36):
Nineties ninety seven?
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Okay, that was I think that was? Was that the
one I interviewed?
Speaker 2 (37:43):
No, that wasn't the one. I interviewed Shannon Sharp before
one of the Broncos Super Bowls and.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
He told me. I asked he actually, I guess he wasn't.
He was one in San Diego.
Speaker 2 (37:50):
He didn't play in it, but he he said he
didn't watch football.
Speaker 7 (37:54):
Thank goodness. You missed all the other ones. Cool because
they didn't go well for your Broncos.
Speaker 10 (37:58):
Yeah no, no, I mean that's that's why I became
a Broncos fan. That was the first, like really, it
was really the first, like football game that I sat
and watched like start to finish?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
What is next to ask Ben the Extended Dance Remix.
Your questions are answers. If you like this, we have
something that's totally different. On the Sunday Fifth Hour podcast
The Mailbag, What's next year?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Donkey Sausage would like to know when was the Docky
When was the last time.
Speaker 7 (38:22):
He went to a library?
Speaker 2 (38:25):
So I went to a virtual library because I wanted
to watch a Phil Henry documentary for free, and I
had to get a library card. So I wanted the
virtual library my radio, not my radio friend.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
But Phil Henry used to work at Premiere.
Speaker 10 (38:41):
So he spent forty five minutes signing up for the
library figure.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
I saved like five bucks watching the documentary, so it
was totally worth it. But I could go to the
library and pick up the card. But I haven't been
in years any quickly.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
A couple of years ago, I think I went to
get a passport photo taken or something like that.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
All right, sounds Lorena.
Speaker 8 (39:00):
I love libraries and books. I go to the college
one and I go to the county one in West
Pamina and in Oregon.
Speaker 10 (39:06):
Okay, cool, Yeah, college was probably the last time I
went to a library.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
All right, what's the next.
Speaker 10 (39:12):
Quickly, Matt Jack wants to know what's your favorite Mexican food.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Oh, crunchy tacos all day and all night for the wind.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Tacos dorado is what they call them. Any quick jos,
no lorena, Oh it's.
Speaker 10 (39:27):
So hard for.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Chagas is all right?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
No crunchy taco all day, all night for the wind.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Tacos dorado. That's the way.
Hello and welcome. It's our dumb berth three.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
As we cruise around the sports take Junkyard here an
hour three a Hodgepodge Hodgepodge. We start in Baltimore, where
the football team is making headlines. How do you decode
Lamar Jackson's response to missing his Ravens.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Workout roster bonus?
Speaker 2 (00:26):
He did get asked the question and he gave a answer,
non answer. Joey Chestnutt is going to take on Kobe
Yashi in a winner take all hot dog eating contest.
It's gonna be on Netflix. You fancy a thought on
this one? And we'll go to Major League Baseball. There
are reports bouncing around the pinball machine of sports talk
(00:49):
that a lot of chatter about the San Francisco Giants
planning a shopping spree going after both Juan Soto and
Pete Alonzo when they hit the market. We'll talk about
that and much more right now, give it up. Plus
ask Ben our number three, the MVP on the field,
(01:09):
but not when it comes to his finance, is well gome.
In the beginning of another hour of the Ben Malor Show,
we are in the air everywhere as we sculpt our
takes and we know it's better to bend then break.
(01:29):
Coast the coast, border, the border, and beyond on the
vast and absurdly powerful microphones of fsre amminating live from
the tongue the slip of the tongue. We're broadcasting live
from the tire rack dot Com studios.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Tire rack dot Com.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
We'll help you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping,
free road hazard protection and over ten thousand recommended installers,
almost as many comments as check in LA has sent
to the show over the years. Tire rack dot Com
The Way Tire Buying Show B. We'll get back to
the pronouncing ball in a moalmouth. The Boston Celtics have
(02:13):
the mav Rex on the ropes and they're about to
bring in some clergy here to give the Mavericks last rights.
So our lead this hour, though, is not from probouncy Ball.
It's about the bonus baby who wasn't a bonus baby.
What a boondoggle this story has turned out to be
so NFL Dayline Baltimore Ravens quarterback and a multiple MVP winner,
(02:33):
Lamar Jackson. I remember this, We mentioned it a while back,
but Lamar Jackson's contract. The minutia in his contract, Lamar
is contract fully guaranteed workout bonus of seven hundred and
fifty thousand dollars. So the way these things work, all
you have to do is participate. It's a participation award.
(02:58):
You show up to at least eighty percent of the
air quotes voluntary offseason workouts and tendah your pass go
and you get that big giant bonus and fumbau he
fumbled the bag Fumbleuski fumblerouski of the bag. Now, speaking
to reporters at the team's mandatory mini camp in Maryland,
(03:22):
Lamar Jackson was asked by friend of the show and
longtime Baltimore muckrecor Sports With Coleman about his financial snaffoo.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
Did you hear what he said? No? Perhaps not so.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
Lamar Jackson declined to address the loss of seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars of his money. He wasn't hurt,
he wasn't sick, he just didn't show up, he said. Quote,
I never discussed my contract act up here, Lamar snickered.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I'm not about to start today.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Jackson also said, when asked about holding offseason workouts with
his teammates to help the bond continue in Baltimore. He
said that the workouts will only happen if his Ravens
teammates travel to his house in South Florida. Okay, so
let us discuss the question, how do you decode Lamar
(04:29):
Jackson's response to missing his Ravens roster bonus, his workout
bonus he just didn't bother to collect.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
So I've got State.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
Farm, red Onion, and Bride'smaids, and we will combine all
of these things together and we are going to throw
an audio Haymaker is what we're going to throw. So,
first of all, Lamar Jackson rambling a mixture of cliches
(04:59):
and other random thoughts are not going to get it done.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Lamar knew the question was coming.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
The only one with balls enough to ask the question
was our friends Sports with Coleman, Jerry Coleman. And nobody
else was gonna ask that question. They're all trying to
curry favor with Lamar. So one guy had the balls
to ask the question, and Lamar got asked the question,
and he gave a canned ham type answer, boiler plate
smoke screen, the old non answer answer.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
And when you're that evasive to a simple question.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
By giving the non answer answer, you're really speaking your mind.
You're letting us all know, Hey, I'm a moron, and
I just don't want to say I'm a more. This
is a gigantic financial blunder. The word boondoggle is not enough.
This is a hum dinger of a story, and it's.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Not getting talked about enough.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Lamar Jackson refusing to answer questions because.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
He embarrassed himself.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
He lost seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and he
can't fire his agent because his.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Mom is his agent.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Hello, the matriarch of the Jackson family is the one
that helped negotiate the contract with some lawyers from the
NFL Players Association. So does that mean his mamu has
some explaining to do that with proper guidance, any representation
worth their salt, We'll say he all right, listen here,
(06:35):
you got a roster bonus. You got to show up
this number of days that just make sure you're there.
You'll get the money. Come by hook or crook. You're
going to get the money, get the whole shebang. And
instead Lamar Jackson went state farm. Now he doesn't have
a deal with State Farm, but he left seven hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in a ditch on the side
(06:55):
of the road for no apparent reason, the discount with
no double check.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
If he had double checked, he would have he would
have gotten the money.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
He gave a multi billion dollar franchise, the Baltimore Ravens,
seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars back as a donation.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
Who does that?
Speaker 2 (07:15):
No one, Well, I guess, Lamar. And to put in perspective,
how large that amount of money is. That payout was
larger than the jackpot for the Massachusetts Megabucks lottery and
the Maryland Multi Match Lottery.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Both those lotteries.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
The Maryland Lottery was five hundred twenty thousand on Wednesday,
and the Massachusetts Megabucks was six hundred and fifty thousand.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And Lamar, he won the lottery again. And he's, yeah,
I got something else to do.
Speaker 2 (07:46):
I'm good, My goodness, all right, he said, Audios, smooth
Chacho's all right.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Now.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Secondly, we head to the all you can eat buffet,
the gift that keeps giving. The day after his deportation
from the famous Athan's Hot Dog eating contest, because he
made a deal with the Devil the vegans, Joey Chestnut,
Joey Jaws took a bite out of a sweetheart deal.
Speaker 1 (08:09):
We learned mentioned this earlier. We'll get a little deeper
into it, deeper in the weeds.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
Joey Chestnut and Kobyashi mythical figures for someone like me
that's a fanboy of Major League eating. Could have been
my sport as a kid, could have done it. Joey
Chestnut Kobyashi. They are at the very top of the
universe when it comes to Big league eating, and they
are ready to go mono a modo in the same
(08:36):
arena for the first time in fifteen years.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
I was a little child the last time they got together.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
They will go belly to belly in an all beef
hot dog Battle Royal. It's gonna be a humdinger of
an event. September second is the date on this. It
is a made for TV event. The good people over
at Netflix are getting in this now. Joey Chestnut versus
Kobyashi winner take all hot dog eating contest on Netflix again.
(09:07):
Do you fancy a thought on this one? Yes, I
have several thoughts. First, I'm excited, I do have mixed
emotions on this. I love the fact that Netflix is
now getting into sports and they're not giving us the
same old crap repack. It's like they wanted to put
that Mike Tyson fight on against some punk YouTuber. I
don't know those All those Paul brothers look to say
(09:28):
to me, I don't know which one there, but they're
both annoying. You want to punch him in the face
and Tyson I have the chance to do that if
his body holds together.
Speaker 1 (09:34):
So that was the big reveal from Netflix.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
And now they want to put this together Joey Chestnut
and Kobyashi, and I'm in.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I love it.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
I think this is great on the surface, it's going
to be epic. It's certainly worth my time. I don't
know if it's musty TV.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
It's close.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
I mean, Kobyashi was the original Glizzy Goat. He was
the king, as the kids say. Regardless of that, when
you peel back the red onion, he peel back the
red onion, you realize the parade has passed Kobyashi by.
And if I'm not mistaken, and maybe I'm wrong on this,
I swear I remember reading on the interweb in May
(10:11):
a couple months back or was that last month?
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I think it was last month. I think it was
like a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
That they had a documentary on there and Kobyashi, if
I'm not mistaken, retired from Major League eating and then
knock knock, who's there, Netflix, here's a bag of money.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
I'm back. Yeah, But Joey Chestnut is at the summit
of the game.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
He's in the game. And Chestnut, the stuff this guy
does is insane. I've read about his strengthen strengthens his esophagus.
He starts his every morning. Every morning he chugs a
gallon of water. That's how he starts, to say, one
gallon of water. And he does rhythmic burping exercises throughout
(10:58):
the day. I mean dedication. At any moment, he could
drown from drinking one gallon of water while Kobayashi's golfing
somewhere all right.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Final thought?
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Major League Baseball, talking bass ball?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Where are you at?
Speaker 4 (11:16):
On?
Speaker 2 (11:16):
A lot of noise, A lot of chatter bouncing around
the pinball machine in baseball that a piranha is circling
around looking to take a bite out. A couple stars,
the San Francisco Higantes are planning a massive shopping spree.
There multiple reports connecting the Giants to making a big
(11:39):
time offer to Juan Soto and Pie Alonzo, some even
saying the Giants.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Are likely to trade for Peter Alonzo even though they suck.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
They want to have him in San Francisco to see
how much you know, if he likes it, if it's
a good match, and then they can offer him a
big contract in free agency. To so to answer the
question the Giants going big after Soto and Peter A.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Lonzo, we fully expected.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
The San Francisco baseball team has been If you look
at what they've done in recent years, they've been bridesmaids
the last couple of years.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
They are a faceless franchise. The Hoy Peloy.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
There they went after Aaron Judge. That was an Arson situation.
Shout out John Hymen or Hayman or whatever his name is,
Aaron Judge or Arson Judge, remember that stayed in the Bronx.
They agreed and said, psych to that cheating a hole.
This is the greatest thing the Giants have ever done.
They agreed to a.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
Contract with that cheating a hole, Carlos Correa from Houston.
And then I know.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Yeah, he was with Minnesota time, but he's out. He'll
always be tarnished and stained as an a hole from Houston.
But he then signed with youughs with the Giant with
the Giants, and then they got out of the contract,
so get out here. And then this year they got
the Booby Prize. Blake Snell, who's the Booby bra I
(13:00):
ain't playing unless I get mine. I'm risking my life braw. Yeah,
So the Giants, I've seen a few of the actually
liked the Giants broadcasters on TV and radio.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
I think they have really good broadcasters.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
I think they have, but I don't want to say
what I was about to say because I might get
in trouble with some people. But they have really good broadcasts.
And you know, they're old.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Dudes now, they've been doing it for a million years
and they're good at it.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
I remember when years ago John Miller, who does radio
for the Giants, and he was in Baltimore and there
were some rumors that he was looking to leave the Orioles,
And I remember the Angels were looking for a play
by play guy at the time.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
And I was like, Hey, why don't you get John Miller.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
I guess he's got ties to northern California, so maybe
that was never a factor. But the person I talked
to with the Angels was like kind of rolled their
eyes at me.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
It's like it was good. But anyway, Uh, that's a
side note. That's like a side dish. But the Giants,
I've watched him. I watched baseball flipping around.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
I watched a couple of games at night, and the
Giants have no one who's any good.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
They don't.
Speaker 2 (13:58):
They're they're playing Tiddler, while the Dodgers are Jedis. They're
Jedi knights, and so yeah, do I think they're planning
a shopping spree? Absolutely, why wouldn't they. They've got money,
they got a beautiful ballpark. The teams really just boring,
and they don't have stared at least a couple of stars.
A couple stars. You can only eat so many garlic
(14:19):
fries at the ballpark. There it is the Ben Mahlor Show.

I guess by Kelly No the correct answer.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
Tom Brady claims that he has been using a I.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
P I.
Speaker 7 (21:32):
What does that mean.
Speaker 8 (21:35):
I want to take a guest. I think it means
that he has a I come up and play a
fake football game in front of him, and he calls
the fake game live.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
You know, Okay, that's not it's not right. Okay, thanks, Yeah,
says I'm about to start. I know it was a
good effort, he says.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I'm about some of my broadcasting career on Fox, and
I'm using AI in the preparation for that so I
can better understand the matchups, the plays, the different situations
that come up in the game.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
Hold on, I still don't understand what that means.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Why does Tom Brady need does he didn't he play
quarterback for like thirty years? He needs AI to better
understand the game. I'm confused by that. I don't understand.
But that's what he said. You know what this is
this guy has too much money. Brady is so fricking rich.
Speaker 7 (22:28):
I hate when that happens.
Speaker 1 (22:29):
I know, like, I'll never use it. I can't afford AI, EDDI.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
You know that, and so that's why the company I
always tell the companies that you pay me more money.
But I'm gonna change it, and I say we don't
want you to change. Man, we won't you say the
same the same way you are, and so we're not
gonna pay the big money like Calward.
Speaker 7 (22:45):
Let's just say, for example, I wanted to use AI
for something. Do I go to the AI store? Where
do I? Where do I get?
Speaker 3 (22:52):
Even?
Speaker 1 (22:52):
I know there's apps you can get and it's it's rudimentary.
Speaker 2 (22:56):
AI, though, is what it is. It's not it's not great.
It's gonna be really good. We'll be dead by the
time it's really really good. But it's it's it's fine
for what it is.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
You know, I wasn't.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
If I was in school, I would have cheated on
every you know, every paper I had to write. I
would have a I write it. But it didn't exist
in my day, and so I was a terrible student.
But but yeah, the AI thing, I don't know it
helps you A was abroad. I guess maybe he wants
to know. I don't know, like what what would I'm
trying to Let's let's walk through this. So Brady's on
his computer at his fourteen thousand square foot Brentwood match.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Do you see that he's moving to Brentwood.
Speaker 7 (23:32):
I didn't see that.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Yeah, welcome. Well, he's one of his many houses.
Speaker 2 (23:35):
He's building a they're building a fourteen thousand square foot
Brentwood mansion.
Speaker 1 (23:41):
It's almost complete. And now I think of Brentwood, Eddie,
you know what I think of?
Speaker 5 (23:46):
Right?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Yeah, yeah, I mean that's a long that's a long
time ago when OJ cut two people's heads off. Now
they're all dead, but that's a long time back. Anyway,
Brady's using it. Can we move on from that, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (23:58):
Or you want me to spend mon Well, if you
are looking for my permission, yes you may move off
from that. All right.
Speaker 2 (24:02):
Let's go to a man now who was very bragged nocious.
He called up and said his team was going to
win the NBA Championship, and they in game one they
were punched in the eye, in Game two they were
slapping across the face, and in game three they were
needing the nuts. Let's say hello to Texas Jack, Hello, Texas.
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Jack Man, Why you gotta be such an ass one
two three.
Speaker 7 (24:25):
Hole that it goes with the job?
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I don't care. It goes with the job.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
With the job layoff of Luca Man. He leads all
scores of the entire freaking Finals, but you got it.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
How's he doing in there? How's he done in the
fourth quarter.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Well, he's got eight points in the fourth quarter, the
in the finals combined, he's three of fifteen from the
floor in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
I did I did that earlier in hour or two.
Did well.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
One of my favorite baseball players when I was a kid,
there was a picture for the Atlanta Braves named Terry
Forster and they called him the big fat tub of
goo and uh and that.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
Was a great nickname. And so I think Luca big
fat Tubago. I think it works.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Yeah, Yeah, are you going?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
Are you going to now admit Texas?
Speaker 3 (25:19):
Jack? Now? Jack?
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Say it Jack, Say it Jack. I'll give you a
golden take if you say it, Jack, go ahead, say it.
It's over.

Speaker 7 (25:26):
It's over.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
I will not say it. Say it Jack, say it Jack.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
It's over.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Not yet. It ain't not yet.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
History is to be made, that's all, not by these guys.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
An opportunity, that's all it is.
Speaker 1 (25:44):
You keep telling you keep telling yourself, Johnny. Well, yeah,
it doesn't look good at all. It's a disasters anyway.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
Yeah, all right, but I can't I can't give up
on my team.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
Well, they've given up. You should be.
Speaker 3 (25:59):
You hard. You make it hard to like you sometimes.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
I know, sometimes come down, Come down over there, Eddie.
All right, Jack, hanging there. I don't know what do
you What do you want me to tell you? What
do you want me to tell you?
Speaker 7 (26:12):
Jack?
Speaker 2 (26:12):
I don't know what to tell you. The team sucks.
The guys vanished in the second I mean, it doesn't.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Matter who does good and who doesn't. I mean, Kyrie
does good and you pick on Luca.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I mean, well, Kyrie didn't do well in the second
half of this game either. But people look at the.
Speaker 3 (26:29):
Oil, but the rest of your team on your back.
You're tired in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
Okay, that's why. So you're admitting he's out of shape.
Speaker 2 (26:37):
I got you, Michael Jordan.
Speaker 1 (26:43):
I don't remember him getting tired in the fourth Maybe
he did. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I don't recall that happening. So all right, I hang it, Jack,
I feel like you want to punch me. Go ahead,
punch me, Jack, go ahead, punch me, punch me, punch me.
Speaker 1 (27:02):
Let me.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
I'll give you.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
I'll give you, aug I'll give you.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
Okay, Well, I'll get out when it's over. I don't
advise you. I don't want you to listen to my
NBA Finals monologue when the Mavericks lose the final. Well,
it probably won't happen till Sunday night, because it will
happen on Friday, and I'm not on Friday and Saturday.
Speaker 1 (27:20):
So I thank you.
Speaker 4 (27:22):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 7 (27:28):
Now, we didn't tell you about the Mets Marlins game,
and we're not going to give you the score now,
But did you see, Ben, there was a special first
pitch in the game. I did see this Grimace from
from McDonald's the first pitch.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
He's the fat ass purple he's the giant purple guy.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
I don't know what he is actually, and it's weird,
but purple monsters.
Speaker 7 (27:49):
Yeah, it's a very unusual thing. But uh, Grimmace, not
too bad.
Speaker 1 (27:54):
You know'retty good, better than you, better than you.
Speaker 7 (27:57):
That's not true. That's not true. But I just made
me think. We've seen some horrific first pitches.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
And most of them met Mets games.
Speaker 7 (28:05):
That's true for some reason. But here's a here's a
person in a giant purple suit. Looking out of the
mouth of this thing, probably can barely see. It's got
like gloves on, like fuzzy gloves on. And they actually
and Grimace actually threw a better pitch than like fifty
cent and Carl Lewis and the Baba Booie and all
these guys.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Is there's a conspiracy theory, Eddie?
Speaker 7 (28:26):
Oh, that of course there is.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
There was a ringer that big Burger McDonald's put a
ringer in the costume.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
And that's how.
Speaker 7 (28:35):
Who do you think it was?
Speaker 2 (28:37):
I don't know, maybe one of the like the mets
infielders that wasn't playing, was in the costume.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
Now, is that?
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Who's your favorite McDonald's land character where we were kids
when these came out, Eddie mcdaniell, I was always a
fan of I loved the Hamburglar who they were criminal.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
Big fan of that.
Speaker 7 (28:57):
I'll go with the fry guys.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
Okay, that's fine.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
What Mayor Mayor mcchee's I used to have a program
director we called Mayor mccheese.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
He looked like he looked like maryor mcchee.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Yeah, maryor mc che' is kind odd because you know,
his head was made out of a Hamburger.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Yeah, but that was the same member Officer Big Mac.
Speaker 7 (29:14):
I don't remember.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
You don't remember. That was early eighties at Officer Big Mac.
Speaker 7 (29:19):
Big Mac off to google it.
Speaker 1 (29:21):
Just google. It looked a lot like Mayor McGee's we had,
but he had a police uniform.
Speaker 7 (29:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Have they added any new characters like Sesame Street? We
learned a couple days ago that Sesame Street had.
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Know Lorena, do you take your daughter in McDonald's. Does
she like McDonald's.
Speaker 8 (29:35):
Shockingly, she doesn't like McDonald's.
Speaker 7 (29:37):
Wow, Sing, I know she's not a normal kid.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
These kids have These kids have changed Eddy.
Speaker 7 (29:42):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (29:43):
I just don't understand the why they'd bring back Grimace
and why they wouldn't bring back the Hamburglar.
Speaker 7 (29:48):
You know, is the Hamburglar been canceled?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Well, they did get I think they brought him back
a couple of years ago, so I think he might
be back. But I'm pretty sure that Officer Big Mac
is not back.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
He's been retired.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
McDonald says, Bob McDonald's defunded the police before everyone.
Speaker 7 (30:08):
The hamburg.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
Much like modern society.
Speaker 2 (30:13):
Crimerald's running free us just to do whatever the hell
you want. Knock yourself out, Okay, have we spent enough
time on Grimace throwing out the first pitch? I think
we I think we have Eddie. I think We've done
enough far. Let's have some fun here. Fun fact, all right,
fun fact. Joe Missoula. He's the head coach of the
(30:34):
Boston basketball team. Coach Mizula loves to use motivational techniques
to get his team fired up for games. We told
you in a previous episode he's had his team watch
killer shark videos to learn how to have that killer instinct.
And now Joe Mizula having his team watch UFC fights
during the finals the NBA Finals. Why, Joe Mizula said,
(30:59):
the closer you are to beating someone in the UFC,
the closer you are to getting your ass kicked. That
is the quote there from Joe Missoula. And here's a
bonus fun fact. Bonus fun fact. Bonus fun fact. The
Atlanta Braves have lost five games in a row for
(31:20):
the first time since the Astros. We're banging on trash
cans in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Yeah, it's been a while. It's been a minute, been
a minute since they were that bad.

Speaker 9 (32:54):
All right, Cowboy Killer would like to know.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
How about Hi, Cowboy Keller?
Speaker 10 (32:58):
Hi, do you prefer chips and salsa or the artichoke
dip for an appetizer?
Speaker 1 (33:06):
Yeah, I'm not against the artist choke dip. It's not
my favorite. I prefer chips and salsa, Eddie.
Speaker 7 (33:12):
Generally speaking, I would go chips and salsa.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
I can't go wrong with chips and salsa, Loraina.
Speaker 7 (33:18):
I'm disappointed in both.
Speaker 8 (33:20):
Right, Oh my gosh, artichoke dip all the way. And
you know what I really like when like I think
it's Chilis and Applebee's, they also give you a side
of salsa with your artichoke dip, so you get both.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
You're on the wrong side of history of lorena. That's
that's fine.
Speaker 10 (33:35):
Artichoke dip is fantastic. I love artichoke dip so good.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
I don't hate it, but it's not mine my favorite.
What is next? It's ask Ben your questions all answers
for the rest of the hour, King Rory would like
to know. Hi, King Rory.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
Do you properly use your turn indicators while driving?
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Yes? And it annoys the hell out of me.
Speaker 2 (33:59):
If if you're gonna drive like a douche canoe, at
least have the courtesy of signaling when you're about to
cut me off. It is beyond It drives me nuts.
You're driving. It's like being Butcher in Germany and driving
the autobon at night in la and during the day
you don't get anywhere during the day because there's traffic.
But at night, when we're driving around in the early
(34:22):
morning hours, you can actually drive and it's like the autobond,
but at least signaling. It is so lazy. I hate it,
so yeah, I signaled. What about you, Eddie, I would
agree with that.
Speaker 7 (34:32):
I would probably even say that I use it even
when I don't really have to. But it's a good
habit to get into it.
Speaker 2 (34:37):
Yeah, you don't want to stop using it because yeah, yeah, boy,
you guys are boomers.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
What about you, Lorena, Well.
Speaker 8 (34:43):
Ben always return my cart.
Speaker 5 (34:47):
I also don't, Lorain.
Speaker 8 (34:54):
It's only when I know I'm really making a very
dedicated move.
Speaker 9 (34:58):
I'm not.
Speaker 8 (34:59):
I'm not you have to give a warning I'm getting over.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
No, it's so bad.
Speaker 9 (35:07):
Uh. For the most part, I'd say the only times
that I maybe don't use it is if I'm like
in a left turn lane that you can only turn
left in, you know what I mean, Like you're waiting
for the left turn arrow, Like I don't necessarily have
it on when I'm sitting in that lane.
Speaker 10 (35:21):
Everybody's going left.
Speaker 7 (35:24):
That's that's just.
Speaker 3 (35:27):
Rain.
Speaker 7 (35:27):
Is not courteous.
Speaker 8 (35:29):
Told me, I don't have to if i'm lane.
Speaker 7 (35:32):
I'm not kidding.
Speaker 1 (35:33):
I'm not kidding.
Speaker 8 (35:33):
If you're in the lane with the arrow, you do
not have to use your blinker.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
Yeah yeah, good cock gone bad bad apples there?
Speaker 1 (35:42):
Now? What what about?
Speaker 2 (35:44):
Now? I was told, and I don't know if this
is true or not, that if you're in the left
turn lane, but you're going to make a U turn,
you shouldn't signal because you're making the U turn, So
that's a sign you're going to make a U turn
to the people that are turning.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Right into the oncoming traffic. About that, I don't know
if that's true. Somebody told me that years ago, and
I've just I've operated that way Uh, Coop, have you
answered this?
Speaker 3 (36:06):
I don't. Yeah, you did.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
What's next?
Speaker 10 (36:08):
Art Puffin would like to know. I want somebody to
fact check Loraina. By the way, Art Puffin wants to
know what was the first Super Bowl that you watched?
Speaker 1 (36:19):
That is a good question. Now watched or remember?
Speaker 6 (36:22):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (36:23):
Because I think I remember they were like the Giants
and Broncos.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
I mean in the I remember what.
Speaker 3 (36:30):
I know.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I watched the Rams as a kid, but I don't
remember it.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
So they were in there played the Steelers, but I
don't really remember that, So I guess the one I
kind of fond memories up because I got a T
shirt from it. My mom made a big deal to
go down to the store. We paid like four bucks
for a T shirt. Was I think it was the
made the like mid eighties Giants and Broncos.
Speaker 1 (36:51):
I think I think guys bring it. What about you, Eddie?
You probably you're older than me.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (36:56):
I think it's part of the reason why I was
a Steelers fan. Steelers Rams in nineteen eighty was the
first one I really remember, and I was like, Oh,
I like that team. They won. I'm going to be
a fan of that team.
Speaker 2 (37:05):
I did a radio show with Terry Bradshaw years ago.
He said, if he had known I was a little
fat kid watching, he would have.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Thrown the game for the Rams. That's what he told me. Yeah,
I'm not making that fighter. He did tell me that.
I think he might have been kidding, though, I have
no idea. Doesn't hear the Super Bowl? Okay?
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Have you ever watched the Super Bowl?
Speaker 10 (37:23):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Just for the commercials.
Speaker 8 (37:25):
See the commercials? Yeah, so the halftime show with the game.
Speaker 7 (37:28):
Yeah, all right, the cool Broncos Packers?
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Oh yeah, late? Was that late nineties?
Speaker 2 (37:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (37:36):
Nineties ninety seven?
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Okay, that was I think that was? Was that the
one I interviewed?
Speaker 2 (37:43):
No, that wasn't the one. I interviewed Shannon Sharp before
one of the Broncos Super Bowls and.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
He told me. I asked he actually, I guess he wasn't.
He was one in San Diego.
Speaker 2 (37:50):
He didn't play in it, but he he said he
didn't watch football.
Speaker 7 (37:54):
Thank goodness. You missed all the other ones. Cool because
they didn't go well for your Broncos.
Speaker 10 (37:58):
Yeah no, no, I mean that's that's why I became
a Broncos fan. That was the first, like really, it
was really the first, like football game that I sat
and watched like start to finish?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
What is next to ask Ben the Extended Dance Remix.
Your questions are answers. If you like this, we have
something that's totally different. On the Sunday Fifth Hour podcast
The Mailbag, What's next year?
Speaker 9 (38:18):
Donkey Sausage would like to know when was the Docky
When was the last time.
Speaker 7 (38:22):
He went to a library?
Speaker 2 (38:25):
So I went to a virtual library because I wanted
to watch a Phil Henry documentary for free, and I
had to get a library card. So I wanted the
virtual library my radio, not my radio friend.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
But Phil Henry used to work at Premiere.
Speaker 10 (38:41):
So he spent forty five minutes signing up for the
library figure.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
I saved like five bucks watching the documentary, so it
was totally worth it. But I could go to the
library and pick up the card. But I haven't been
in years any quickly.
Speaker 7 (38:54):
A couple of years ago, I think I went to
get a passport photo taken or something like that.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
All right, sounds Lorena.
Speaker 8 (39:00):
I love libraries and books. I go to the college
one and I go to the county one in West
Pamina and in Oregon.
Speaker 10 (39:06):
Okay, cool, Yeah, college was probably the last time I
went to a library.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
All right, what's the next.
Speaker 10 (39:12):
Quickly, Matt Jack wants to know what's your favorite Mexican food.
Speaker 2 (39:16):
Oh, crunchy tacos all day and all night for the wind.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Tacos dorado is what they call them. Any quick jos,
no lorena, Oh it's.
Speaker 10 (39:27):
So hard for.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Chagas is all right?
Speaker 2 (39:32):
No crunchy taco all day, all night for the wind.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Tacos dorado. That's the way.
