Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our dumn birth three and oldie
but a goodie here an hour number three. Joel Ebiid,
we'll start with him. On the Original Recipe podcast, Joel
Embiid says he's the most hated player in the NBA.
How much credence do you give this? How much credence
(00:21):
do you give this? Also, how does this Turner lawsuit
against the NBA playout? Right? How's how's all that play out?
The NBA picking Amazon officially in NBC and saying go
pound sand Turner and so they're going to court. Also,
why is Clydes Rexler, a hero of the eighties and
(00:41):
early nineties NBA selling his dream team Olympic gold medal?
We'll go there as well. It's all coming your way
right now. It's like hurting frogs here in our number three.
It's not about the game, it's about the It's all
about the hate. Welme. In the beginning of another hour
(01:07):
of the Ben Mahler Show. We are in the air
everywhere hobb noobbers. That's right, we are hobbnobbers, as we
say about about a boom coast, coast, port of the
border and beyond on the vast and immensely powerful microphones
(01:28):
of fs are emmating live from the shop the sweatshop
of sports Talk. We're broadcasting live from the tyrac dot
com studios. Tyract dot com will help you get there
in unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection,

(01:50):
as Calligan Tim in Michigan has sent in tire rack
dot com the way tire buying shureb in our lead
this hour from pro bouncy Ball. That is where Joel
and Beide continues to have loose lips. He single handedly
(02:12):
is keeping these NBA themeed Mallard monologues alive and well
providing us content. Now, if you have not heard the
latest on the Philadelphia basketball star, perhaps not speaking on
a fledgling podcast, Joel NB commented on social media. This
is on the podcast he said. Quote he was asked
(02:32):
about social media said, I pay attention to it, he said,
because it makes me better. I like it when people
tell me I can't win, because it makes me push
myself to be better, he said. He said, I'm probably
the most hated guy in the league. I don't know
what's there to hey about me. That's the motivation that
(02:54):
I need. Close quote, So that is what's known as
the meat on the bone is what that is, right,
that's the money quote for our purpose. This will let
us discuss the question the seventy six Joellenbid he says
he's the most hated player in the NBA. He said it,
Joel Embiid said, he's the most hated player in the NBA.
(03:15):
How much credence do you give this? So I've got
the beat keeper, certified check and decluttering, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
to grunt, is what we're going to do. So first
of all, how much credence do I give this? How
(03:36):
about zero credence? Joel Embiid? He's actually a likable guy.
He's a goofball guy. I mean, I bust his chops
from that now and again. But it's pretty obvious every man,
woman and child, who knows who the most hated player
in the NBA is. And it's not even close Lebron James.
(03:57):
No one else is in the same zip code one.
There is no one in the NBA all the other
players combined who annoy people like Lebron he's the godfather
of annoyance. Right. He gets under people's skin. He's a firebrand.
He knows it. Everything the guy does right and people
get annoyed. Now, a lot of people like Lebron, but
(04:17):
there's a lot of people that hate him. Right. And
Joel Embiid's problem is in terms of social media, he's addicted.
He admits he's addicted. He likes it. I get it,
I understand, But he thinks he's like the bee keeper
on social media. He's got no self control. And you
keep going back and I think of social media like
(04:37):
a beehive, and you keep poking a beehive. Do not
be surprised when you get chased down by the beast, right,
don't be surprised by that. And whether it is to
be utopia or oblivion, it's gonna be touch and go.
We talk about social media and all that. It's a
touch and go race right down to the final moment.
And it's really just a vast orchard orc. I can't
(05:00):
even say it of crap. It's just a bunch of crap,
is what it is. Now. Secondly to the boardroom, we go.
I wanted to mention this. We talked about it in
the previous episode, and much like when I ran the
gossip site, it has become reality here. The NBA announced
a new eleven year television agreement included in that ESPN
(05:22):
is back again, and then and BC the Peacock is
on board, and the Amazon Amazon Prime Video, all of
those deals announced. They rejected TNT. They blocked like Mutambo,
they blocked TNT Sports. The agreement worth seventy seven billion
(05:44):
dollars total. However, it is not going to begin until
twenty twenty five, twenty twenty six, which means TNT will
be a lame duck broadcaster with one season left. Now
that decision is leading to a lawsuit. Turner, from what
we understand, is going to file a lawsuit against the
(06:06):
NBA to block that. So the question is how does
this Turner lawsuit against the NBA play out now that
we know it's going to happen with these new developments,
So all roads, all roads lead to Turner Sports getting
a certified check as I understand it, even though even
though Turner matched the Amazon deal, the argument the NBA
(06:30):
is going to make, from what I understand, is that
Turner did not have the five point four billion upfront.
Amazon has so much money from all of us buying
our crap on Amazon that they could cut a check
right now today for five point four billion. Turner didn't
do that, and that's in the that's gonna be the
(06:51):
NBA's argument, say, well, it was a breach of contract.
Even though they said they matched the deal. Turner could
not come up with the money right now. And Amazon's
gonna give us the money and that's why lost out.
And it will be up to a court to decide
if they indeed had to pay that money up front
or if they just merely had to say they would
pay the money now. The most likely outcome is Turner
(07:14):
is just going to get a shopping cart filled with
cash to go away. Now, the bigger question is what
happens to Charles Barkley. And while many people are doing
the eulogy for inside the NBA, he says he's going
to retire. I don't believe he's going to retire. Barkley,
as we talked about in past shows, has a legendary
gambling problem. And if you gamble a lot, you lose
(07:36):
a lot. And if you lose a lot, you need
a lot of money coming in and so therefore you
can't give up your semi retirement job of barking on television. Now,
a little Birdie tells me that the plan is in
place for Amazon to bird dog Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal,
and Kenny Smith, and they're going to get offered a
(07:58):
ton of money to bring that show, oh Inside the NBA,
to Amazon. And I wouldn't be surprised if NBC tries
to get involved in this as well when they begin
the NBA package and they try to get Charles Barkley,
but I know Amazon's in on it, and I would
think NBC. So those guys. Now, Ernie Johnson is going
to retire, but if Barkley, Shack and Kenny Smith want
to keep going, there will be an offer they will have.
(08:20):
In fact, I would say they'd have multiple offers to
continue that Inside the NBA show. It just won't be
a turner sports. Now, final thought, we go to the
auctioning block. That is more surprising news here. If you're old,
you know who this is. You probably got to be
around the age of forty year older to know the
greatness of Clyde Drexler, the hammer dunks with the Trailblazers
(08:42):
going down the Oregon Trail. This guy was a big
star back in his day, and Clyde Drexler was part
of the greatest basketball team ever assembled, the nineteen ninety
two Dream Team, and in relation to that, he won
a gold medal. They dominated the Olympics. Well, all these
years later, we've learned that Clyde, a nineteen ninety two
Dream Team Olympic gold medal winner, has decided he will sell.
(09:06):
He will auction off that gold medal. The bidding begins.
If you want it, you need to have two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars. Question why why is Clyde Drexler
selling the Dream Team Olympic gold medal? So I have
a couple of thoughts on this. The first one, we
don't know the answer that you know. It's just gonna
(09:27):
spitball here and we'll psychoanalyze why someone would sell a
medal which you'd think you'd just take to the grave
with you and when you die, you'd let your family
fight about it. The first thought would be, he's broke.
I find that hard to believe. Clydedrexler did not make
the kind of money players make today, but remember, because
(09:47):
of inflation, everything is relative. Clydrrexler made thirty one million
dollars when he retired. By the time he retired in
nineteen ninety eight, so that means in today's money it's
almost sixty million dollars fifty nine point seven. One million
ninety eight is worth fifty nine point seven in today's
money based on inflation. But so I don't think he's broke.
The other option is, and this is more likely, is
(10:10):
that he's just decluttering. Clyde the Glide is like everyone
else getting older. He's sixty two, and at some point
you decide you are surrounded by too much crap, right,
too much stuff, and you got to let some of
it go. Everything is temporary. Clyde is likely doing some
estate planning like the Celtics Wink wink, not dot. And
(10:31):
if his family nobody wants the gold medal. Nobody wants
it and they would rather just have the money and
invest that in some stock or portfolio of crypto who knows.
So you just unload the metal, You take the past accomplishments.
You have the memories, and unless you get dementia, you
always have the memories. And now the third option is
(10:53):
the reason he's getting rid of this is because of
bad juju. If I remember, and I was much younger,
I even radio when that dream Team happened. I was
I was dreaming of being on the radio at that
time in nineteen ninety two. But as I recall watching
as a fan, believe that Clyde Drexler and Michael Jordan
did not like each other and that they were battling
(11:15):
it out. So is it possible Is it true that
the main reason Clyde Director wants to get rid of
that gold medal all these years later is because it's
just got some bad karma to it? Could that be developing?
Hot dot dot dot? All right, it is the Ben
Mahlor Show coming up later this hour. Whether you like
(11:39):
it or not, Buckle up, bukaroo. We are going to
have ask Ben. Ask Ben. But right now, time now
for the Riddle of the day. You can call in
by the way of you and there's a line open.
You can grab that line if you want get your
name on it, or you don't have to. It's fine
either way. And on ex at Ben Mallard and at
Ben Mahler on X follow me there. I might read
(12:00):
your answer on the earth for the mallar riddle of
the day. Here it is Olympic athletes this week one
blank in a battle with the woke IOC. Again, Olympic athletes,
not just American athletes, all Olympic athletes. One blank in
a battle with the wokesers over at the IOC. That
is the mallor riddle of the day. The answer, We'll

get to it and we will do it next.

from the Bay is gonna He's a jolly good fellow. Yeah,

and I passed it on to Cooper Loop and so
I'm very excited. He's gonna be an hour four. He
(15:08):
has requested a slot, and I hope he sings I
did love for he's a jolly goodfellow. And I enjoyed
Tony's calls. I like when he calls up because he usually,
you know, says something that gets dumped, but he says
it in a very cool way, a very kind way,
and just mixing, and it mixes in a bad word.
And sometimes he calls up and stays on hold just
to say a bad word. But Tony will be part

d C Hello, CD.
Speaker 7 (16:09):
Hey, mister money mall, what's going on with my brother?
Speaker 5 (16:12):
Eh?
Speaker 1 (16:12):
What's up? C D Welcome to this show. Are you
actually gonna talk about baseball?
Speaker 7 (16:17):
Hey, let me tell you something first before I get
to the baseball, Before you go on vacation with my friends,
please give us the morning. Because I had to switch
over to other networks. It ain't work well.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
I don't want me. I don't want you. I don't
want you to do that. I think I still get
credit if you listen even though I'm not here, but
I I hear you. I uh. They normally tell you
though CD and radio they say, don't say when you're
not gonna be there. They tell you to say that.
But I will tell you that I only have on
my my calendar. I know, I know our guys, Sir
scratch Off is not gonna like this. But there's only
a couple more dates I have that I most likely
(16:52):
will not be here. Other than that, I think for
the rest of the year, I have no there's like
two more dates and then that's it.
Speaker 7 (16:58):
But one footbollt, I'm just not schy man. You deserve
it sometime I don't don't.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
No, I don't deserve any time off CD. I don't
no time off. I talk for a living CD. I
just sit here, knock. Yeah, anyway, what's hey?
Speaker 7 (17:13):
And I heard you now what's the name breath? I
heard him on the other networks one night. So just
so I let you know that it's being a hopefully
that could be a part of malam militia. But none
of that Oakland, as I thought you said there was stiffs.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Yes they are stiffs. Yeah they are according.
Speaker 7 (17:31):
To my fans. They channed me up and they took
down your as true.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Well that's the problem. See if you do it on
a single game basis. But if you were to see
you can't even really make money betting against the Oakland.
A's because the let me let me explain why, because
the numbers are so obscene.
Speaker 8 (17:51):
Let me let me check here.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
I want to see. That's a great point. Are you?
Are you recreational gamblers out your thing there? Yeah?
Speaker 7 (17:58):
I mean I try to supplement my uh come from
the airport, you know, because sometimes that don't get enough.
I think I need so I try.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
To Yeah, no, I hear, I hear it.
Speaker 7 (18:07):
You know, I don't get a part time job, you know,
I don't want to get a part time job.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
Yeah, you do the whole lesson. I want to see
how far down the rabbit hole you go CD because
I'm an amateur gambler myself, you know, I like to
gamble a little bit.
Speaker 7 (18:22):
So when you're it became interesting.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Exactly exactly. It's you know, as long as you everything,
you know, you don't want to go broke, right, you
gotta you gotta manage your money exactly exactly. If you
do it in moderation, its exactly exactly exactly. Don't get
crazy and all that stuff. So the Oakland Athletics are
forty one and sixty three, and but but but here's
(18:50):
the thing. If you if you bet on the Athletics
every every game, you would have lost five hundred, one
hundred dollars gamble, I would have lost five hundred twenty
seven dollars based on the lines. Let me see the
team that is the team that has won the most
money this year, I believe is the Cleveland Guardians that
they're they're doing the best. But uh yeah, I mean
(19:11):
there's all even bet against the White Sox are terrible.
The White Sox are I think the worst.
Speaker 7 (19:19):
Yeah, yeah, they only went like twenty seven games, I
think or something like that.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Uh yeah, yeah, yeah, but they're uh yeah, I mean
we don't get too much into the money part of it,
but yeah, the A's. If you bet on the A's
every game, you would have ended up losing five hundred
five hundred bucks or something like that. Mean, but there's
some there's some quirky things that happen, like you usually
have to bet on bad teams, but not a team
as bad as that.
Speaker 7 (19:42):
So, but they got a guy. They got a guy.
He's pretty decent. Let's take his name is Michael. You
think is Frank fitting the RBIs or something like that.
Speaker 1 (19:49):
Yeah, I mean they got a couple guys. But the
problem is you need, as you know, you need more
than a couple of guys to be good. That's yeah,
that's the problem. That's the issue there.
Speaker 7 (19:57):
And one more thing before they have a call a
timemon to get some of your time. If looking for
a chuckle, go to follow John Boy Media on Facebook.
He does the rereading of all those umpire batters, interactions
umpires getting thrown out here and he is man if
you want to let laugh when you're at home or
(20:18):
something like that, check out John Boy Media.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
He's all right, all right, I'll check that out, thank you.
There he goes, all right, thank you. He's a new
member of the malle militia right there, c D. He's
part of the club. I got to pay off the
mallor riddle of the day. Now here you forgot, I
didn't forget. Here's the malor riddle of to day. Olympic
athletes one blank in a battle with the woke IOC
(20:44):
Olympic athletes one blank in a battle with the woke IO.
See that is the mallor riddle of the day. Let's
see does anyone know the answer? Let's see here we go,
we go down, page down, page down down. Let's see
here pro ranch pickle is the answer. French bread. They
(21:08):
won their weight in French bread. You know what they
call French bread in France? The bread. Yeah, there's called bread.
Donkey sausas said. They won used water beds is what
they won. Who else do we have? They won unlimited
availability to condoms. I think they already had that. Who
else do we have? Drive their hummers? They were allowed
to drive their hummers? Page down, page down. The Olympic
(21:32):
athletes all got a case of bottled water and hand
lotion from Andy of Lino Lakes. Page down, Page down,
they got pancakes. According to Stevie Meatballs. JT. The Wingman says,
Olympic athletes won an audition for the Malapalooza from the
Wolkesters at the IOC Raspberry Berets from Econ, Roseville, Minnesota,
(21:56):
quoting a song, who else we have? Page down? Alcado
toast from mad Jack, who's eventually going to host a
Mallard meet and greet in southern California. Who else do
we have? Patrick in San Diego. DJ Spin says the
right to do the Humpty dumpty during the Olympics. See
you can't read that on the air. We'll skip over
(22:17):
that one, all right. I think that's well. Ferd Ducks
said the right to bear arms? Is what he said? Eddie,
do you have an answer to the Mallord riddle of
the day. Olympic athletes won blank in a battle with
the woke IOC.
Speaker 5 (22:33):
A right to a trial by their peers, trial.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
By the peers? Is that correct? No, that is not correct, Eddie.
The correct answer. Olympic athletes won air conditioning. They won
a battle for air conditioning with the IO series. Yeah,
so the International Olympic Committee and the people of France agreed.
They made a pledge that the Olympics, the Paris Olympics,
(22:58):
the Parie Olympics, would be the greenest ever. So that
meant no air conditioning the Olympic Village in Paris. Spoiler alert,
it kind of gets hot this time of the year
in Paris, and concerned about the health of the athletes
and then getting enough rest and all that stuff. So
at the very last minute the Olympics getting underway, the
opening ceremonies are on Friday, and so they ran out
(23:21):
and purchased twenty five hundred AC units, despite the fact
the Olympic Village complex was built with no air conditioning
and all of this because of the science and the
athletes complaining. But the ideal temperature to sleep, according to
a psychologist who monitors that stuff, is between sixty one
(23:45):
and sixty five degrees fahrenheit, and they claimed without the
air conditioning it would not be able to get to
that temperature. So the IOC finally relented and they are
going to allow athletes. They don't want athletes underrested. There
was concern and the biggest moment of their careers and
all that. So they're gonna have air conditioning at the Olympics.
It is the Ben Malords Show. Let's go back to

Speaker 5 (27:43):
Right, It's going to be everywhere right over the La Olympics.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
But there'll be events all over the place.
Speaker 9 (27:47):
Yeah. They were saying something about swimming in the water
in Long Beach and I was just there last weekend, Right,
do not get in that water?
Speaker 1 (27:54):
Is it worse?
Speaker 6 (27:55):
It smells so sour? It smelled sour.

I don't. I go to Hawaii, That's where I go
to water. I don't go Hawaii water here and now
it's this guy.
Speaker 8 (28:05):
Fancy then goes to the white.
Speaker 1 (28:08):
Well, there's a beach. Sometimes we go to the beach
in Huntington Beach and you walk around and there's oil
in the sand like your Yeah. I one time I
went there. There's an oil spill that was months before.
They didn't clean the beach the right way, and I
had to, you know, hardest to get oil off the
bottom of your feet. Not the easiest thing in the world.
Speaker 6 (28:24):
I don't think I've ever had to do that.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Well, you haven't gone to the right beaches. Bad job
by you. Shame on you. Anyway. It is the Ben

White Sox now are fifty games under five hundred, fifty
games under five hundred. They are twenty seven and seventy seven.

Speaker 8 (31:07):
All right, Mike and Dodge.
Speaker 10 (31:09):
I Mike, you would like to know, he said, Hey, Ben,
with a new Twisters movie out? Is there a natural
phenomenon that you would be interested in experiencing or witnessing.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Yeah, I'm good. I mean, I've done the earthquake thing.
I've been a bunch of earthquakes living on the West Coast.
Like hurricanes, you know when they're coming so you can
get out of them. Tornadoes genuinely kind of know when
it's tornado alley and where you know. I'm good, I'm good.
Any anything you want to watch, any natural phenomena. I
(31:39):
assume he meant disaster, right, He didn't.
Speaker 8 (31:42):
He didn't necessarily say that specify that.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
I think tornadoes are both terrifying and amazing. I would
like to see you one up close if I was
somehow guaranteed that I would not be harmed by it.
But would I would not take that chance.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Would you go in one of those cars where they
drive into the torn They have like armored cars and
they drive through there.
Speaker 5 (32:03):
No, because that would cost money. I don't think I
would want to pay for something like that. By the way,
Coop sidebar, did you see the Twisters movie and what's
your quick review?
Speaker 8 (32:10):
I did. It was pretty cool. It's not as good
as the first one, but I enjoyed.
Speaker 5 (32:13):
It all right.
Speaker 1 (32:15):
The sequel, not the equal.
Speaker 9 (32:16):
Loraina, I would like to see the northern lights again, Ben,
I don't want to be scared and I don't want
to die, so I don't want to see like a
tsunami or a hurricane or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (32:27):
That's good. Yeah, I've not seen me the northern lights either.
What about you, Koploop.
Speaker 10 (32:33):
Since I was a child, I thought it would be
awesome to see a tornado in person. I never have,
but I would want to be, you know, a safe
distance away, but just to see one in person, I
think would be so cool.
Speaker 1 (32:46):
What about a hurricane? You could be like weed Man,
go down to the beach and go in a lifeguard
tower during a hurricane.
Speaker 8 (32:51):
Not as cool?
Speaker 1 (32:52):
Okay, I thought it was pretty cool. Are you still
in jail?
Speaker 5 (32:55):
He's got me in jail right, last report was he
was still in jail.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
I okay, someone free weed Man. What's next? What do
we have here is ask Ben? Your questions are answers.
On this Thursday, the King Rory would like to know.
Speaker 10 (33:10):
Hi, Rory, would you rather have a nose like an
elephant or a neck like a giraffe?
Speaker 5 (33:16):
All right, let's think about this, and it sounds like
a lead to lap question.
Speaker 1 (33:21):
Yeah, I kind of think the neck thing would be
kind of cool. You know, I have that big, tall neck,
could be over everyone and all that. I think that
would be cool. What about you, Ddie.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
Gosh, I don't want either, but I guess I'll take
the nose like the elephant, because I could use it
like another hand. I can pick things up with it
and maybe punch somebody in face of them. I need
to protect myself, Okay, Lorraina, I.
Speaker 6 (33:47):
Was saying, I'll take an elephant's backside. Ben, that's not
that's not a cheig nose.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
Okay, well Over and Beverly Hills, they can make that happen.
What about you, Cooperloo.
Speaker 10 (34:04):
This is a really tough one. I think I gotta
agree with you Ben on the giraft neck.
Speaker 1 (34:12):
Yeah we are. It's not the Neither one's great. But
the trunk would get in a way of everything.
Speaker 10 (34:18):
Yeah, it would, and it would just you know, it's
right there on your face. Everything else about you could
be normal. You just have a really long neck, like
but like, what is that? What does that effect? You
can still what was the name of that difficult Oh.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Mike, Mike, what was the guy it was your draft.
Speaker 8 (34:35):

Speaker 2 (34:49):
Ben?
Speaker 1 (34:49):
Your questions are answers for the rest of the hour.
If you think we're doing a bang up job, we
do it every week this time. If you think it sucks,
it's only once a week, So who the hell cares?
Lighting up Francis, what's next?
Speaker 5 (35:00):

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Things that make.
Speaker 10 (35:03):
You go, let's go with this one's I guess this
one's just for us three and not Lorena for a
dog wants to know?
Speaker 8 (35:12):
Would you eat a pickle for fifty dollars?
Speaker 5 (35:17):
How big is the pickle?
Speaker 1 (35:19):
Yeah?
Speaker 10 (35:19):
He posted a picture of like a jar of pickles
and their whole pickles in there.
Speaker 6 (35:24):
It has to be a Disneyland sized pickle.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
It has to be no, no, no, no, not that big.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
No. With inflation, it would have to be much more
than No.
Speaker 10 (35:32):
The picture that he posted is not a Disneyland size pickle.
That's like a that's like a a jar of manny reference.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
Yeah, I'm not there's more money I consider. I mean
I did eat bull jerky and all that, so of
course I would do all right, Well anyone about you know.
Speaker 5 (35:51):
So you would absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
I did the Rocky Mountain oysters that was discussed.
Speaker 5 (35:54):
You actually didn't. I did. No, you did not.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
I did.
Speaker 6 (35:57):
Lorena, you know i'd do it.
Speaker 1 (36:00):
Yeah, she loves Why don't even ask me?
Speaker 4 (36:02):
Well?
Speaker 10 (36:03):
Uh, coop, Yeah, I hate pickles, but you know fifty bucks,
I'll think you got me a nice meal somewhere.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
You hate vasoline, so you eat pickles?
Speaker 8 (36:11):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:11):
Yeah, all right? What is next year? As we continue
on happy days or here again? What do we have
next year?
Speaker 10 (36:18):
Late Night drug Tester would like to Late Night Drug
Tester said, do you keep extra toilet paper under your
bathroom sink? Or do you have a toilet paper holder
off to the side?
Speaker 1 (36:28):
Well, game changer, game changer. I think Eddie knows this
because he's been to the Malo mansion, but you two
have not. The new one and the wife invested in
what are those things called the squirt the water out.
I don't know what those us are called? Day but day. Yeah,
we had like the bedet, so it cuts down on
the toilet.
Speaker 5 (36:44):
Paper for me to answer the question, though, No, we
I mean.
Speaker 1 (36:47):
I have like a I go to Costco once every
like four months and buy a giant thing of toilet
paper and then that's it. But we don't use much,
so we don't really need it that much.
Speaker 9 (36:56):
So no, so he doesn't keep it under the sink,
I think, is what is getting out?
Speaker 1 (37:01):
It's in the garage.
Speaker 5 (37:02):
Yeah, we have the toilet paper towering.
Speaker 6 (37:08):
Each other on top of the other.
Speaker 5 (37:09):
And we also have spear under the sink, so we
do both.
Speaker 1 (37:14):
Toilet Paper is a very important part of your life.
Speaker 5 (37:16):
Without question.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
You do a lot of pooping. I do, yes, Lorena, I.
Speaker 9 (37:21):
Keep mine out in the garage, Ben, And it has
been it's been pretty devastating sometimes.
Speaker 6 (37:25):
Though you have a wife to go get you toilet
paper when you need it.
Speaker 10 (37:28):
I do not.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
No, I have to get my own. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:30):
Can't you send the kid not anymore?
Speaker 1 (37:32):
I can't. Yeah, yeah, when's the kid coming back?
Speaker 6 (37:35):
Two years?
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Two years? I'm not going to visit in two years.
Come on, still, come visit for a couple, what about you?
Speaker 10 (37:45):
So in the master bathroom, we have one of those
toilet paper towers, like like Eddie but the middle bathroom
does not have that. So in that one it's under
the sink and it's only like a couple of rolls.
I also my toilet paper from Costco. The rest of
the like thirty eight rolls that the pack right is
(38:07):
in a cupboard under the stairs.
Speaker 1 (38:09):
Oh that's a great deal. And I go by watch room.
I go high end on the toilet pitch. I go
high in. Of course, I think I spend a lot
of money, and I like my always feel good. All right,
what is next year? Quickly? Cool?
Speaker 5 (38:20):
What do we have?
Speaker 10 (38:21):
Mister Luciano would like to know which one do you
look forward to? Halloween or Christmas?
Speaker 5 (38:26):
Halloween every time?
Speaker 1 (38:28):

Lorena, Halloween all day, baby?
Speaker 8 (38:37):
All right, cool, I'm gonna say Christmas.
