Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello and welcome. It's our number three, and we wrap
ourselves in the flag and say hello to Perie. The
Parisian Olympics twenty twenty four continuing, and as we were
doing the overnight show, the women were swimming through pooh
and then running and riding their bicycle. The triathlon was
(00:23):
taking place. So how would you classify the Paris Olympics
failure to properly clean up the E Coli poopy waters?
They had the events, but many skeptical if it was
actually clean or not in one day? Also, are you
surprised by the great lengths that American triathletes went to
to prepare for the games in Paris? And how do
(00:47):
you react to that image of Francis Victor Wembanyama Wemby
standing next to a five foot four player from Japan
during the Olympics. We'll talk about that iconic photo as well.
It's I'll come your way right now here. It is
our number three, an Olympics unlike any other. Or is
(01:09):
it welcome? In the beginning of another hour of the
Ben Malor Show, we are.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
In the air everywhere a word buffet, all the words
you can consume, a delight for your ear drums unless
it's not coast to coast, border, the border and beyond
on the vast and considerably powerful microphones of fsre emmating
(01:38):
live from.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
The voyage as we are your nightly verbal voyage into
the darkness. We're broadcasting live from the Tyraq dot com studios.
Tyraq dot com will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand
recommended installers. Our guy Big Greg and I yoha. He
(02:01):
drove like ten mile, a little more than ten mile,
but not ten thousand to get to that Mallard meet
and greet we did in Minnesota while back tire rac
dot com the Way Tire Buying Show be So I'm
excited about this. I have not been too excited about
anything in the Olympics. I actually asked the people, the
(02:21):
pulse of the people, your level of interest in the Olympics.
The Daily Olympics began, and the overwhelming majority were like,
oh no, this is terrible. It's not even vegetable level.
It's worse than vegetables, worse than veggies. The Olympics. So
I've sayed away with it. But my mantra has been
the same, and our lead is from the Olympics here,
(02:42):
and some of you knuckleheads have told me that I'm
not doing my job. You're a sports radio host. Why
are you not talking about the Olympics more. I'm like
that it fits the formats. That makes no sense to
some people. It's over their head. They don't understand it,
and many have told me that I'm completely wrong about that.
But ultimately I talk about the stories that interest me.
(03:03):
I have the editorial control and I'm very happy about that,
and they take that away from me and they give
me the talking points memo on what to talk about.
I will then start talking more about the Olympics. But
I talk about things that I'm interested in. And we
have a hum danger of a story that's been playing out.
We're doing the show and if you're listening to the
podcast later on, we're doing live and just ended. The
(03:23):
women's triathlon has ended. The men are up next, and
this is a tremendous thing, humdinger of a story because
they've been swimming through the waters of the Seine. The
politicians in Paris spent one point five billion cleaning the
(03:46):
poop out of the Seine. Let me repeat that for
those of you that are listening with half an ear.
If you're driving somewhere, a lit'll slow now paying attention.
The politicians in Paris spent one point five billion to
clean feces out of the Sane River, and it is
(04:11):
still believed to be too dirty. In fact, they delayed
the triathlon where the athletes are swimming through the feces
filled water, until today. It's early in the morning right
now in France, and they, just as I said, completed
the women's portion of the event. The man are up next.
But the E coli levels in that river have been
consistently too high. There have been some pr stunts. My
(04:34):
favorite was the mayor of Paris swimming through the poop.
I thought that was pretty good. I wonder how the
mayor's doing right now. They barely made the cutoff point
from what I have been searching here on the interweb.
Reports say they did. They claim it's a workable level,
the E coli level in the water. There There are
(04:57):
skeptics though, that are saying that this is such an
embarrassment to the people of Paris, that they had to
have this race done, and God helped the athletes. They
had to get this thing done because they spend so
much money on it. So let us discuss the question,
how would you classify the Paris Olympics failure to properly
(05:20):
clean the poopy waters. So I've got nursery rhyme, Dartwinism,
and Alice in Wonderland, and we will combine all of
these things together and we are going to make scrub
a dub dub, which you're gonna need to do when
you get out of the water, to a little scrub
a dub dub. All right, So, first of all, this
(05:42):
is in this episode of the Olympics. It is the
epitome of political failure. It's it's like telling people what
they want to hear. It's like, we want the Olympics,
and so we're gonna let you know, yeah, we'll clean
the waters up. Oh yeah, we're gonna water's gonna be clean.
Give us the Olympics. All right, we'll pay you to
give us the Olympics. Okay, sure you understand what a
(06:06):
disaster this is. Okay, the largest investment the Paris Olympic
people made, This is a global event. We all know
that we're here in America talking about the largest amount
of money they spent was not on some high falutin stadium,
some palace to hold an event. It was not for
(06:30):
some arena. No, they spent one point five billion and
the largest amount of money was towards an underground tunnel
and water storage facility that was supposed to purify the
Sane river, which is insane, if you will, for the triathlon,
the open water swimming which has been going on today.
(06:52):
The river has been illegal to swim in for over
one hundred years, and they're putting the top athletes in
the world in the water right now. Good luck, boys
and girls. Knock yourself out. That's going on, and it's
(07:14):
been going on women at first, and now the men.
I want to repeat what I think is very important.
Just a few days back, the levels of A. Coli
bacteria were more than twenty times higher than considered acceptable
for human beings. Now do you think in the span
(07:37):
of a short amount of time they cleaned all of
the feces out. And we were also told, and I
don't live in Paris, I've never been to Paris, but
before I read on the interweb they claimed that the
problem it's such an old city Paris, that the sewage
when it rains, things overflow and the default is to
spill the urine and the feces into the sane river.
(08:02):
And this morning in Paris it looked to be raining.
The streets were all wet. It's normally a sign of
rain where I come from. Maybe I'm wrong on that,
I don't know, but it looked like rain, and so
that was going on. And so I've come to one
conclusion on this that the politicians in Paris have been
humming a nursery rhyme that it's Marcel I think saying
(08:24):
this in Brooklyn the other day. It's row row, your
boat filled with one point five billion, gently gently down
the stream, merely, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a
dream as the money vanishes. One point five billion. And
they didn't even get it right. How much would it
have cost? How could you even do that?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
All?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Right? Now?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Secondly, somebody named Seth Ryder. I believe his name. I
think that's how I pronounce his name. He's an American
triathlon a men's athlete. He'll be performing here shortly when
that event gets started. He revealed what he was doing
in preparation to whim in the e coal I filled
waters of Paris, he said, knowing that they were going
(09:06):
to try to clean it up, he said, we know
there's going to be some E coli exposure. Seth said,
I just try to increase. Here's what he's gonna do.
I'm gonna try to increase my ecali threshold. So what
does that mean? He said, in the lead up to
this event, he's exposing himself to a bit of E
coli in his day to day life, things like throughout
(09:28):
the day going to the bathroom and not washing his
hands after going to the bathroom. That's one of the
things he's saying. And there's all kinds of other stories
about athletes from around the world that are doing different. Now,
does that mean he's gonna, like not even use toilet paper,
just use his bare hand and then not. I don't know.
I don't know how far he's committed to the cause.
(09:49):
I don't know. Are you surprised by the apparent great
lengths that these athletes, these triathletes is an American triathlete.
These guys are going to to prepare for the event
which is going on in a little bit. So now
we would be surprised if they weren't doing that, because
this is a case of Olympic Darwinism. That's my take.
(10:13):
It's Olympic Darwinism. And you either adapt to the ecoli
all over your body, adapt to that, or your metal
dreams die. And what's the old phrase? I remember when
the Olympics give you poop, you put on your speedo
(10:34):
and go for a swim. Isn't that what? That's no,
that's not it. Remember that line Richard Truman had when
he's playing in I think it was Sinceat I might
have been the forty nine ers, but he talked about
a Thursday night game. He said it was a poop fest. Yeah,
so you have to go goblin mode in order to
take care of this. You have to compartmentalize. You can't
wash your hands. I would advise these people who are
(10:56):
doing the triathlon that they what they should have done
is gone to like I don't know if they have
home deep in Paris or not, but go to a
store like that and buy a couple of bags of
fertilizer and then find a hot tub and just pour
the bags of fertilizer into the hot tub and then
just kind of sit in it for a little bit,
because that would recreate the experience at the river there
(11:17):
in Perie. You want that similar feeling, right, Yeah, think
about this though. It's like the Olympics, But is it
the Hunger Games. You've got cardboard beds. Somebody sent me
a clip from a TikToker who claimed at the Olympic
village that the food is months old. It's like leftover
(11:37):
food from months ago. You've got a COOLi water. So
when you win the Olympics, the medal, I think it's
going to include a little canister of antibiotics. For the
triathlon winners, you get a little container. It's in it's
like a door opens up. It's like a transformer the
metal and you get a little container your first dose
(11:59):
of antibiotics. And yeah, all right, final thought. We go
to basketball, but not Team USA, but a player who
is going to be a big fndal in America for
like the next fifteen years. How did you react? Have
you seen the image? No, blind Scott, you haven't, No
blind Emmett, no Incot, No, our blind guys have not
seen it. So how did you react to the image
(12:21):
of Francis Victor Wembanyama standing next to a five foot
four player from Japan during a game at the Olympics
here this week. So I love it. It's it's one
of the cool photo. These are always iconic photos. They're
always iconic, and it's who doesn't like the Alice in Wonderland.
(12:46):
Part of sport that you've got really huge people and
really little people and they're competing on the same field.
It's like watching Kyler Murray play quarterback in Arizona. It's
like a video game play. It's like, why is the
quarterback not bigger? I don't understand what's going on with that.
It's like an error. It's like a thing of a
jig that's wrong with the game. But my favorite photo,
(13:09):
I know you're curious about my favorite photo like this.
When I was a kid, there was a photo is
his team doesn't even exist an it's called the Washington
Bullets Morning Time, as Rick and Maryland would say, So
the Washington Bullets. They had this guy named Minute Bawl.
He's dead now, but anyway, he was seven foot seven
tallest player in NBA history. His teammate was this little
(13:32):
little fella named Muggsy Bogues. That was his nickname and
his real name, Tyrone Bogues. Muggsy Bogues. They called them
five foot three. They were teammates. And there's this famous
photo you can just google it of minute Ball standing
up and holding a bunch of basketballs and then next
to them is Muggsy Bogues and it's just awesome. Now,
(13:54):
there have been some other ones. I remember that photo
a couple of years ago, Aaron Judge and that Pip
Squeak Cheater al Bouve, Jose Albouve. I remember that. There's
a lot in the NFL. Also any kicker and lineman.
Great photo. But you can add Wemby and this cat
from Japan. I don't know this guy is, but there
(14:16):
you go, side by side on the court. It is

Speaker 4 (21:37):
Love that dirty water. Lorena, you sound like a real
Missiggie in real life.
Speaker 10 (21:47):
Moo.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Is that supposed to be a cop? Thank you?
Speaker 10 (21:51):
Yes, that's a cop.

Okay, apparently not. He got cut off. Let's sail out
to Dwayne, who's in Cincinnati. What's going on? We had
a guy that called up about the twinkie thing, but
yung up. He wanted to do some twinkie talk on
the radio. What's going on? Dwayne?
Speaker 8 (22:06):
Hey, I was going I just want to say real
quick like a Why they got three running quarterbacks instead
of a real quarterback that can throw the football? You
know what I'm saying. I'm talking about the NFL.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I do not know you. What are you talking about?
You running quarterbacks can't win? Is that your argument? Is
that what you're saying?
Speaker 8 (22:29):
No, I'm saying that why they got three running quarterbacks?
Why they get paid too much? If they want to
be a running back, they can't throw the football.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Somebody offered them the money. If somebody offered you the money, Dwayne,
you'd sign for that money too. I don't blame the players.
Why would you not take the money?
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Well? Maybe to go Canada. I'm talking about the product.
I want to watch some football, not go backwards. Get
quarterbacks from the ghetto. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (22:57):
How about all right? Thank you? Thank you racist racist
racist to the moon side the moonshine there. Well, that's wonderful.
We got to cleanse the lines. Let's go to Rob
in the three to two one. Rob will cleanse the lines.
Are really not going to be a knucklehead, right.
Speaker 11 (23:13):
Rob, I'm always a knucklehead. How are you doing?
Speaker 10 (23:16):
Great?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Wonderful? All right? Yes? What what? What? What can I
do for you? How can I help you?
Speaker 11 (23:25):
I just wanted to say thank you for letting me
participate in the malor to leave at twenty twenty four,
I will wear my straps with dignity and pride, and
thanks to all the Melin militia that has messaged me,
especially Mike the Leprechaun who messages me all the time,
telling me and being ridiculous with.
Speaker 8 (23:47):
All of it.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yeah, and you, you won very close voting between you
and Ohio. Now we've voted for you on the show here, Rob,
but you also won the vote of the people, and
it was it was close for a while, but you
you ended up winning thirty nine percent of the vote.
So congratulations. You did the SpongeBob song. It's very nice.
Speaker 10 (24:12):
I almost was going to perform the Campfire song. I
don't know if Lorena or they probably are familiar with
that song, so I'm like, let me do something different
and incorporate the best day ever with Ben Mallard show.
And you got what you got it?
Speaker 5 (24:29):
That was great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Literally two minutes have we added that, Loraina to the system.
The SpongeBob song is that in the system now?
Speaker 7 (24:36):
It is not?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Are we efforting that. Do we know and we've made
no effort on that. There's no effort on that.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
I've dreamt about it, You've dreamt about it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
So are we?
Speaker 7 (24:43):
Are we?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Because in past engineers we've always like put those songs
from the malaplus like into the system to replay them.
Are we beyond that now? Is that now something we
are no longer doing?
Speaker 7 (24:54):
It may be able to be possible?
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Then okay, all right the weasel word, maybe that's that's
a no. We will never hear it any of those
songs again, so download the podcast. I told that will
now not be happy. We will never hear those songs again,
but we we enjoyed it. We'd love to play it again.
I would, but apparently the other people do not. So
thank you, Rob, and good luck next year with your
next impersonation. All right, there you go. All right, there's
(25:17):
a rob. I need somebody who wants to be a
game show contestant. Maybe we can bring Roberto back at
he put he used to put the songs in right
back of the day he put him in there, right.
I don't think he's coming back.
Speaker 4 (25:30):
Then.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
He was texting me about the Dodgers all day, about
the trades. I he wouldn't leave me alone. I was like, dude,
I'm working, What are you bugging me for about the damn?
Speaker 3 (25:38):
I mean, leme tell him if he wants to talk
about the Dodgers, come back on the show.
Speaker 1 (25:41):

Malor fun fact. The last two thousand games, the Seattle
Mariners have won one thousand and lost one thousand, oh consistence,
going back to I think twenty eleven. Literally the last
(26:46):
two thousand games, the Seattle Manners are a thousand wins
and one thousand losses? Is that not a fun fact?
But they do lead the American League West Night. Right now,
you're Seattle Mariners, one game ahead of the hated a
Holes from Houston. Here we got there, we go, here
we go? Is it too much or not enough enough? Already?
And we have a couple of people online. I'm gonna
(27:09):
give this person first DIBs, and then if they goof around,
we'll go to the backup. We'll say hello now to
America's favorite drag queen caller and former contestant in the
Malord Palooza. We saylo to Felexus. Hello, flexis ydo everybody?
(27:29):
There is the famous line we had you on the
mallor Palooza. You were sleeping though, so it didn't count.
Speaker 11 (27:38):
I do our game to our something.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Yeah, we're gonna play the game. Are you ready to
go here? Are you ready to present a winning effort here?
For Lexus?
Speaker 11 (27:52):
I'm ready like the fire crackers.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Father Julia baby fire.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Oh boy, don't I I love lighting your fire. We'll
start with this question number La de la Cruz just
became the fourth player in the modern era to have
seventy or more runs scored and fifty five or more
stolen bases in a season before the end of July?
(28:20):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (28:24):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Not not enough? You say in this final day of July?
Is it not enough? Is that the that is correct.
He's the fifth player to do it first since Ricky
Henderson way back in the nineteen eighties. All right, question
number two. I don't know what happened to him. Michael
Jordan has the most forty point games with zero three pointers,
(28:47):
with seventy five such games in in NBA history. Obviously,
Jordan has forty point games with zero seventy five to
forty point games with zero three pointers. I think that's
probably the better way to phrase it. Is that too much?
You're not enough? Too much says too much? Is he right?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
No?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
The answer is not enough. Jordan had one hundred and
ten forty point games without a three pointer. He didn't
shoot the three point shot. Keep going, I guys smoking
cigars in the South of France right now, living in
his greatest life, and you're hanging out in Buffalo calling
it overnight sports radio show. Who's winning? All right? Question
(29:28):
number three? Here we go, Manny Machado is now tied
with Dave Winfield for the fourth most homers in San
Diego Padre history. He's played in two hundred and fifty
fewer games. Machado. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
He says? Too much? Again? Is Felexus right now? Not enough?
Machado has played in three hundred and fifty nine fewer
games than Dave Winfield. So one right? Too wrong? You suck? Well?
Now you're not done yet at f Lexus. But what
I don't want to know? Okay? Question number four? You
(30:08):
get this wrong? The game ends? You get that right,
We get to another question. Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Right ahead? In a game against the Higantes last week,
the Rockies swung and missed fifty five times. Is that
too much or not enough for Lexus? You sure about that?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (30:35):
That's right? Not enough? The Rockies swung and missed sixty
four times, of most whiffs by by any MLB team
on a single day since pitchers were first tracked back
in nineteen eighty eight. Question number five comes down to this.
All the glory of victory, the golden ticket, all of
that will be yours if you get this question right.
Question yeah, yeah, yeah. Question five for f Lexus and
(30:59):
Buffalo America's favorite drag queen caller, the sports radio Clayton.
Clayton Kershaw now has four hundred and ten strikeouts against
the San Francisco Giants. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (31:15):
For the win?
Speaker 8 (31:18):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Let's find out?
Speaker 12 (31:22):
That's congratulations, you did it, the champion, champion of the world.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Too much kersh off four hundred two strikeouts against the Giants.
He's the only pitcher who made his debut in the
division here to have four him? All right? Who cares?
Thank you? Do we need to know anything for the
Queen of Hearts? Is there anything we need to know?
Speaker 7 (31:52):

heart out there.

Should we get into some love?
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Is it love? All right? JT the Wingman This is
actually an appropriate question. We're meeting fans of the show
on Saturday in Vegas. We're gonna be there. JT the
Wingman says, is getting married in Las Vegas a good thing.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
Yes.
Speaker 9 (34:31):
I've had friends elope randomly in Vegas, and I've had
friends actually plan weddings in Vegas. Both have been great.
My friend Chapel with Elvis.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Okay, so I was gonna ask you because I I've
had some of my I went to a cousins. I
have two cousins that got married in Vegas and then
but they didn't get married like a shotgun wedding, like
the Elvis thing. They got married like at the hotel.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
Oh yeah, no, there's was real and I actually got
to do a whole bride's main thing that was really fun.
But you, no, getting married in Vegas is perfectly fine
if that works for you and your lover.
Speaker 7 (35:04):
Whatever works for you.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Guys, you're good with it. Yeah, fer dog right. Since
there is there anything wrong with breaking up with a girl,
so you can ask out her best friend how long
you have to wait? I think the better question is
how long does one have to wait when breaking up?
Speaker 7 (35:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (35:23):
Well, you know, if you're lucky, you don't have to
break up at all, and maybe you can get them
to love each other enough you can date both of them.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
We live in the real world.
Speaker 7 (35:30):
But what you heard me?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Did you say what I think you said?
Speaker 5 (35:34):
Laar is?
Speaker 7 (35:35):
I'm not kidding?
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Really, what world.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Are you outside the world I come from? I don't
know what world you're living in.
Speaker 9 (35:40):
But no, if you don't think your girlfriend will be
okay with you being in love with her best friend,
you should probably figure out which one you like more
and also see if the relationship would be able to
be sustained, because yeah, a lot of girlfriends won't want
to come between their friendship or maybe they do.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Eh bends Jack writes in but we will take a
call or too, if you want to call an eight
seven seven ninety nine On Fox with The Queen of
Hearts with Lorena mad Jack says, should one act swiftly
with love at first sight or take the time to
get to know someone better over time? Yeah? Well, if
(36:20):
there is really something such as love at first sight,
then why would you bother waiting because you love right?
Speaker 7 (36:25):
No, I think it's more lust at first sight.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Ben, There's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 7 (36:29):
No, no.
Speaker 9 (36:30):
But also usually when you lust it first, you realize
you really don't have a lot in comment after that.
So if you want your number to go up and
your connection to stay small. Maybe you can go.
Speaker 7 (36:40):
At it faster. But if you really want a connection,
I suggest you wait.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Are you talking about the scoreboard?
Speaker 4 (36:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Yeah, yeah, Well if you're asking guys, I think the
guys are gonna they don't want their number to go up.
They don't. Yeah, I don't really worry about it.
Speaker 7 (36:53):
I'm sure they don't care.
Speaker 9 (36:54):
But in regular situation, they want to be like wil
Chamberlain is what they want to be, Like, how many
can I get?
Speaker 1 (36:59):
You know, you know, Wilt Chamberlain.
Speaker 7 (37:01):
What did he do?
Speaker 8 (37:02):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Will Chamberlain on of a great all time NBA place.
He wrote a book in the late nineties, said he
slept with twenty thousand women. Stop it, that's what he claimed.
Speaker 7 (37:11):
Really, how many women is that a day?
Speaker 1 (37:14):
Well, a friend of mine, Doug Gricryan, who used to
be a radio guy, Doug did the math. He covered
Wilt Chamberain. We played for the lake. He said, no way,
the math doesn't work. It's impossible, bull crap because it
would have to be like two or three a day
during the you know, the season, and the math travel.
Speaker 7 (37:31):
Crazy blood flow for that. Anyways, next, well, you'd.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Have to have available people that would be willing to
do it. That would be the other problem. That would
be uh, that would be a problem as well.
Speaker 7 (37:40):
My hometown.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
All right, well, hollering James called up. You know this
guy definitely needs love advice, hollering James. Yes, hollering James
are on with the Queen of Hearts.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Hey, Queen, I gotta ask you a question. How come
I wear around people so much like Ben and some
of the other callers that I just don't get up
appreciate it? Are the much love that I need? I
need to find love somewhere, not to pay for it,
but to find true love. I reached you out of
the wrong places. How do I reach out to the
(38:11):
right places? I need to go to the library, the
bookstore I need to read.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yes, the library. You always find love at the library there.
Speaker 9 (38:19):
You know. I do suggest just getting out in general,
finding love is really hard because that you know, you
have to actually make a connection, and if you're not
good at connecting with people face to face, that can
be a problem. I think I've said this to another
listener before. Online dating might be your thing. You can
catfish people. Catfishing does really well for a lot of people.
You don't have to show your face and you still
get affection. You just no one's gonna hug you.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Are you recommending catfishing?
Speaker 9 (38:42):
Is that if it's your only option? Ben, Yes, I
am suggesting catfish.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Okay, that's why she's the Queen of Arts. Real quick,
the King Rory quickly says, do women find two men
kissing a turn on like men find two women kissing eternal?
Speaker 9 (38:56):
I can't say for everyone's sexuality is fluid. I think
sexual reality in general like something that you see, something
that you can get a little feisty, like ooh.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I'm going that as a no. I'm going I'm going
I'm going no on that one. I think Queen of
Hearts right there,
Hello and welcome. It's our number three, and we wrap
ourselves in the flag and say hello to Perie. The
Parisian Olympics twenty twenty four continuing, and as we were
doing the overnight show, the women were swimming through pooh
and then running and riding their bicycle. The triathlon was
(00:23):
taking place. So how would you classify the Paris Olympics
failure to properly clean up the E Coli poopy waters?
They had the events, but many skeptical if it was
actually clean or not in one day? Also, are you
surprised by the great lengths that American triathletes went to
to prepare for the games in Paris? And how do
(00:47):
you react to that image of Francis Victor Wembanyama Wemby
standing next to a five foot four player from Japan
during the Olympics. We'll talk about that iconic photo as well.
It's I'll come your way right now here. It is
our number three, an Olympics unlike any other. Or is
(01:09):
it welcome? In the beginning of another hour of the
Ben Malor Show, we are.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
In the air everywhere a word buffet, all the words
you can consume, a delight for your ear drums unless
it's not coast to coast, border, the border and beyond
on the vast and considerably powerful microphones of fsre emmating
(01:38):
live from.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
The voyage as we are your nightly verbal voyage into
the darkness. We're broadcasting live from the Tyraq dot com studios.
Tyraq dot com will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over ten thousand
recommended installers. Our guy Big Greg and I yoha. He
(02:01):
drove like ten mile, a little more than ten mile,
but not ten thousand to get to that Mallard meet
and greet we did in Minnesota while back tire rac
dot com the Way Tire Buying Show be So I'm
excited about this. I have not been too excited about
anything in the Olympics. I actually asked the people, the
(02:21):
pulse of the people, your level of interest in the Olympics.
The Daily Olympics began, and the overwhelming majority were like,
oh no, this is terrible. It's not even vegetable level.
It's worse than vegetables, worse than veggies. The Olympics. So
I've sayed away with it. But my mantra has been
the same, and our lead is from the Olympics here,
(02:42):
and some of you knuckleheads have told me that I'm
not doing my job. You're a sports radio host. Why
are you not talking about the Olympics more. I'm like
that it fits the formats. That makes no sense to
some people. It's over their head. They don't understand it,
and many have told me that I'm completely wrong about that.
But ultimately I talk about the stories that interest me.
(03:03):
I have the editorial control and I'm very happy about that,
and they take that away from me and they give
me the talking points memo on what to talk about.
I will then start talking more about the Olympics. But
I talk about things that I'm interested in. And we
have a hum danger of a story that's been playing out.
We're doing the show and if you're listening to the
podcast later on, we're doing live and just ended. The
(03:23):
women's triathlon has ended. The men are up next, and
this is a tremendous thing, humdinger of a story because
they've been swimming through the waters of the Seine. The
politicians in Paris spent one point five billion cleaning the
(03:46):
poop out of the Seine. Let me repeat that for
those of you that are listening with half an ear.
If you're driving somewhere, a lit'll slow now paying attention.
The politicians in Paris spent one point five billion to
clean feces out of the Sane River, and it is
(04:11):
still believed to be too dirty. In fact, they delayed
the triathlon where the athletes are swimming through the feces
filled water, until today. It's early in the morning right
now in France, and they, just as I said, completed
the women's portion of the event. The man are up next.
But the E coli levels in that river have been
consistently too high. There have been some pr stunts. My
(04:34):
favorite was the mayor of Paris swimming through the poop.
I thought that was pretty good. I wonder how the
mayor's doing right now. They barely made the cutoff point
from what I have been searching here on the interweb.
Reports say they did. They claim it's a workable level,
the E coli level in the water. There There are
(04:57):
skeptics though, that are saying that this is such an
embarrassment to the people of Paris, that they had to
have this race done, and God helped the athletes. They
had to get this thing done because they spend so
much money on it. So let us discuss the question,
how would you classify the Paris Olympics failure to properly
(05:20):
clean the poopy waters. So I've got nursery rhyme, Dartwinism,
and Alice in Wonderland, and we will combine all of
these things together and we are going to make scrub
a dub dub, which you're gonna need to do when
you get out of the water, to a little scrub
a dub dub. All right, So, first of all, this
(05:42):
is in this episode of the Olympics. It is the
epitome of political failure. It's it's like telling people what
they want to hear. It's like, we want the Olympics,
and so we're gonna let you know, yeah, we'll clean
the waters up. Oh yeah, we're gonna water's gonna be clean.
Give us the Olympics. All right, we'll pay you to
give us the Olympics. Okay, sure you understand what a
(06:06):
disaster this is. Okay, the largest investment the Paris Olympic
people made, This is a global event. We all know
that we're here in America talking about the largest amount
of money they spent was not on some high falutin stadium,
some palace to hold an event. It was not for
(06:30):
some arena. No, they spent one point five billion and
the largest amount of money was towards an underground tunnel
and water storage facility that was supposed to purify the
Sane river, which is insane, if you will, for the triathlon,
the open water swimming which has been going on today.
(06:52):
The river has been illegal to swim in for over
one hundred years, and they're putting the top athletes in
the world in the water right now. Good luck, boys
and girls. Knock yourself out. That's going on, and it's
(07:14):
been going on women at first, and now the men.
I want to repeat what I think is very important.
Just a few days back, the levels of A. Coli
bacteria were more than twenty times higher than considered acceptable
for human beings. Now do you think in the span
(07:37):
of a short amount of time they cleaned all of
the feces out. And we were also told, and I
don't live in Paris, I've never been to Paris, but
before I read on the interweb they claimed that the
problem it's such an old city Paris, that the sewage
when it rains, things overflow and the default is to
spill the urine and the feces into the sane river.
(08:02):
And this morning in Paris it looked to be raining.
The streets were all wet. It's normally a sign of
rain where I come from. Maybe I'm wrong on that,
I don't know, but it looked like rain, and so
that was going on. And so I've come to one
conclusion on this that the politicians in Paris have been
humming a nursery rhyme that it's Marcel I think saying
(08:24):
this in Brooklyn the other day. It's row row, your
boat filled with one point five billion, gently gently down
the stream, merely, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a
dream as the money vanishes. One point five billion. And
they didn't even get it right. How much would it
have cost? How could you even do that?
Speaker 3 (08:43):
All?
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Right? Now?
Speaker 1 (08:43):
Secondly, somebody named Seth Ryder. I believe his name. I
think that's how I pronounce his name. He's an American
triathlon a men's athlete. He'll be performing here shortly when
that event gets started. He revealed what he was doing
in preparation to whim in the e coal I filled
waters of Paris, he said, knowing that they were going
(09:06):
to try to clean it up, he said, we know
there's going to be some E coli exposure. Seth said,
I just try to increase. Here's what he's gonna do.
I'm gonna try to increase my ecali threshold. So what
does that mean? He said, in the lead up to
this event, he's exposing himself to a bit of E
coli in his day to day life, things like throughout
(09:28):
the day going to the bathroom and not washing his
hands after going to the bathroom. That's one of the
things he's saying. And there's all kinds of other stories
about athletes from around the world that are doing different. Now,
does that mean he's gonna, like not even use toilet paper,
just use his bare hand and then not. I don't know.
I don't know how far he's committed to the cause.
(09:49):
I don't know. Are you surprised by the apparent great
lengths that these athletes, these triathletes is an American triathlete.
These guys are going to to prepare for the event
which is going on in a little bit. So now
we would be surprised if they weren't doing that, because
this is a case of Olympic Darwinism. That's my take.
(10:13):
It's Olympic Darwinism. And you either adapt to the ecoli
all over your body, adapt to that, or your metal
dreams die. And what's the old phrase? I remember when
the Olympics give you poop, you put on your speedo
(10:34):
and go for a swim. Isn't that what? That's no,
that's not it. Remember that line Richard Truman had when
he's playing in I think it was Sinceat I might
have been the forty nine ers, but he talked about
a Thursday night game. He said it was a poop fest. Yeah,
so you have to go goblin mode in order to
take care of this. You have to compartmentalize. You can't
wash your hands. I would advise these people who are
(10:56):
doing the triathlon that they what they should have done
is gone to like I don't know if they have
home deep in Paris or not, but go to a
store like that and buy a couple of bags of
fertilizer and then find a hot tub and just pour
the bags of fertilizer into the hot tub and then
just kind of sit in it for a little bit,
because that would recreate the experience at the river there
(11:17):
in Perie. You want that similar feeling, right, Yeah, think
about this though. It's like the Olympics, But is it
the Hunger Games. You've got cardboard beds. Somebody sent me
a clip from a TikToker who claimed at the Olympic
village that the food is months old. It's like leftover
(11:37):
food from months ago. You've got a COOLi water. So
when you win the Olympics, the medal, I think it's
going to include a little canister of antibiotics. For the
triathlon winners, you get a little container. It's in it's
like a door opens up. It's like a transformer the
metal and you get a little container your first dose
(11:59):
of antibiotics. And yeah, all right, final thought. We go
to basketball, but not Team USA, but a player who
is going to be a big fndal in America for
like the next fifteen years. How did you react? Have
you seen the image? No, blind Scott, you haven't, No
blind Emmett, no Incot, No, our blind guys have not
seen it. So how did you react to the image
(12:21):
of Francis Victor Wembanyama standing next to a five foot
four player from Japan during a game at the Olympics
here this week. So I love it. It's it's one
of the cool photo. These are always iconic photos. They're
always iconic, and it's who doesn't like the Alice in Wonderland.
(12:46):
Part of sport that you've got really huge people and
really little people and they're competing on the same field.
It's like watching Kyler Murray play quarterback in Arizona. It's
like a video game play. It's like, why is the
quarterback not bigger? I don't understand what's going on with that.
It's like an error. It's like a thing of a
jig that's wrong with the game. But my favorite photo,
(13:09):
I know you're curious about my favorite photo like this.
When I was a kid, there was a photo is
his team doesn't even exist an it's called the Washington
Bullets Morning Time, as Rick and Maryland would say, So
the Washington Bullets. They had this guy named Minute Bawl.
He's dead now, but anyway, he was seven foot seven
tallest player in NBA history. His teammate was this little
(13:32):
little fella named Muggsy Bogues. That was his nickname and
his real name, Tyrone Bogues. Muggsy Bogues. They called them
five foot three. They were teammates. And there's this famous
photo you can just google it of minute Ball standing

Speaker 5 (21:29):
I did not know.
Speaker 11 (21:31):
He wanted to say, and not a moose.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
Love that dirty water. Lorena, you sound like a real
Missiggie in real life.
Speaker 10 (21:47):
Moo.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Is that supposed to be a cop? Thank you?
Speaker 10 (21:51):
Yes, that's a cop.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Okay, apparently not. He got cut off. Let's sail out
to Dwayne, who's in Cincinnati. What's going on? We had
a guy that called up about the twinkie thing, but
yung up. He wanted to do some twinkie talk on
the radio. What's going on? Dwayne?
Speaker 8 (22:06):
Hey, I was going I just want to say real
quick like a Why they got three running quarterbacks instead
of a real quarterback that can throw the football? You
know what I'm saying. I'm talking about the NFL.
Speaker 1 (22:22):
I do not know you. What are you talking about?
You running quarterbacks can't win? Is that your argument? Is
that what you're saying?
Speaker 8 (22:29):
No, I'm saying that why they got three running quarterbacks?
Why they get paid too much? If they want to
be a running back, they can't throw the football.
Speaker 1 (22:40):
Somebody offered them the money. If somebody offered you the money, Dwayne,
you'd sign for that money too. I don't blame the players.
Why would you not take the money?
Speaker 8 (22:47):
Well? Maybe to go Canada. I'm talking about the product.
I want to watch some football, not go backwards. Get
quarterbacks from the ghetto. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (22:57):
How about all right? Thank you? Thank you racist racist
racist to the moon side the moonshine there. Well, that's wonderful.
We got to cleanse the lines. Let's go to Rob
in the three to two one. Rob will cleanse the lines.
Are really not going to be a knucklehead, right.
Speaker 11 (23:13):
Rob, I'm always a knucklehead. How are you doing?
Speaker 10 (23:16):
Great?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
Wonderful? All right? Yes? What what? What? What can I
do for you? How can I help you?
Speaker 11 (23:25):
I just wanted to say thank you for letting me
participate in the malor to leave at twenty twenty four,
I will wear my straps with dignity and pride, and
thanks to all the Melin militia that has messaged me,
especially Mike the Leprechaun who messages me all the time,
telling me and being ridiculous with.
Speaker 8 (23:47):
All of it.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yeah, and you, you won very close voting between you
and Ohio. Now we've voted for you on the show here, Rob,
but you also won the vote of the people, and
it was it was close for a while, but you
you ended up winning thirty nine percent of the vote.
So congratulations. You did the SpongeBob song. It's very nice.
Speaker 10 (24:12):
I almost was going to perform the Campfire song. I
don't know if Lorena or they probably are familiar with
that song, so I'm like, let me do something different
and incorporate the best day ever with Ben Mallard show.
And you got what you got it?
Speaker 5 (24:29):
That was great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Literally two minutes have we added that, Loraina to the system.
The SpongeBob song is that in the system now?
Speaker 7 (24:36):
It is not?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Are we efforting that. Do we know and we've made
no effort on that. There's no effort on that.
Speaker 7 (24:41):
I've dreamt about it, You've dreamt about it.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
So are we?
Speaker 7 (24:43):
Are we?
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Because in past engineers we've always like put those songs
from the malaplus like into the system to replay them.
Are we beyond that now? Is that now something we
are no longer doing?
Speaker 7 (24:54):
It may be able to be possible?
Speaker 1 (24:55):
Then okay, all right the weasel word, maybe that's that's
a no. We will never hear it any of those
songs again, so download the podcast. I told that will
now not be happy. We will never hear those songs again,
but we we enjoyed it. We'd love to play it again.
I would, but apparently the other people do not. So
thank you, Rob, and good luck next year with your
next impersonation. All right, there you go. All right, there's
(25:17):
a rob. I need somebody who wants to be a
game show contestant. Maybe we can bring Roberto back at
he put he used to put the songs in right
back of the day he put him in there, right.

Speaker 3 (25:38):

Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 3 (26:10):

straight loss. If you're not paying attention the record at
this point of the Chicago White Sox twenty seven and
eighty three.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
It's impressive. Any Wow, that's bad. That's fun, But gosh,
I have another fun fact. I do well too, Ben
Malor fun fact. The last two thousand games, the Seattle
Mariners have won one thousand and lost one thousand, oh consistence,
going back to I think twenty eleven. Literally the last
(26:46):
two thousand games, the Seattle Manners are a thousand wins
and one thousand losses? Is that not a fun fact?
But they do lead the American League West Night. Right now,
you're Seattle Mariners, one game ahead of the hated a
Holes from Houston. Here we got there, we go, here
we go? Is it too much or not enough enough? Already?
And we have a couple of people online. I'm gonna
(27:09):
give this person first DIBs, and then if they goof around,
we'll go to the backup. We'll say hello now to
America's favorite drag queen caller and former contestant in the
Malord Palooza. We saylo to Felexus. Hello, flexis ydo everybody?
(27:29):
There is the famous line we had you on the
mallor Palooza. You were sleeping though, so it didn't count.
Speaker 11 (27:38):
I do our game to our something.
Speaker 1 (27:42):
Yeah, we're gonna play the game. Are you ready to
go here? Are you ready to present a winning effort here?
For Lexus?
Speaker 11 (27:52):
I'm ready like the fire crackers.
Speaker 8 (27:55):
Father Julia baby fire.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
Oh boy, don't I I love lighting your fire. We'll
start with this question number La de la Cruz just
became the fourth player in the modern era to have
seventy or more runs scored and fifty five or more
stolen bases in a season before the end of July?
(28:20):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (28:24):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:24):
Not not enough? You say in this final day of July?
Is it not enough? Is that the that is correct.
He's the fifth player to do it first since Ricky
Henderson way back in the nineteen eighties. All right, question
number two. I don't know what happened to him. Michael
Jordan has the most forty point games with zero three pointers,
(28:47):
with seventy five such games in in NBA history. Obviously,
Jordan has forty point games with zero seventy five to
forty point games with zero three pointers. I think that's
probably the better way to phrase it. Is that too much?
You're not enough? Too much says too much? Is he right?
Speaker 4 (29:06):
No?
Speaker 1 (29:07):
The answer is not enough. Jordan had one hundred and
ten forty point games without a three pointer. He didn't
shoot the three point shot. Keep going, I guys smoking
cigars in the South of France right now, living in
his greatest life, and you're hanging out in Buffalo calling
it overnight sports radio show. Who's winning? All right? Question
(29:28):
number three? Here we go, Manny Machado is now tied
with Dave Winfield for the fourth most homers in San
Diego Padre history. He's played in two hundred and fifty
fewer games. Machado. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (29:44):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (29:45):
He says? Too much? Again? Is Felexus right now? Not enough?
Machado has played in three hundred and fifty nine fewer
games than Dave Winfield. So one right? Too wrong? You suck? Well?
Now you're not done yet at f Lexus. But what
I don't want to know? Okay? Question number four? You
(30:08):
get this wrong? The game ends? You get that right,
We get to another question. Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (30:12):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
Right ahead? In a game against the Higantes last week,
the Rockies swung and missed fifty five times. Is that
too much or not enough for Lexus? You sure about that?
Speaker 2 (30:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (30:33):
Why not?
Speaker 1 (30:35):
That's right? Not enough? The Rockies swung and missed sixty
four times, of most whiffs by by any MLB team
on a single day since pitchers were first tracked back
in nineteen eighty eight. Question number five comes down to this.
All the glory of victory, the golden ticket, all of
that will be yours if you get this question right.
Question yeah, yeah, yeah. Question five for f Lexus and
(30:59):
Buffalo America's favorite drag queen caller, the sports radio Clayton.
Clayton Kershaw now has four hundred and ten strikeouts against
the San Francisco Giants. Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 4 (31:15):
For the win?

Too much?
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Let's find out?
Speaker 12 (31:22):

Pen?
Speaker 7 (34:13):
Should we get into some love?
Speaker 1 (34:15):
Is it love? All right? JT the Wingman This is
actually an appropriate question. We're meeting fans of the show
on Saturday in Vegas. We're gonna be there. JT the
Wingman says, is getting married in Las Vegas a good thing.
Speaker 7 (34:31):
Yes.
Speaker 9 (34:31):
I've had friends elope randomly in Vegas, and I've had
friends actually plan weddings in Vegas. Both have been great.
My friend Chapel with Elvis.
Speaker 1 (34:42):
Okay, so I was gonna ask you because I I've
had some of my I went to a cousins. I
have two cousins that got married in Vegas and then
but they didn't get married like a shotgun wedding, like
the Elvis thing. They got married like at the hotel.
Speaker 9 (34:56):
Oh yeah, no, there's was real and I actually got
to do a whole bride's main thing that was really fun.
But you, no, getting married in Vegas is perfectly fine
if that works for you and your lover.
Speaker 7 (35:04):
Whatever works for you.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Guys, you're good with it. Yeah, fer dog right. Since
there is there anything wrong with breaking up with a girl,
so you can ask out her best friend how long
you have to wait? I think the better question is
how long does one have to wait when breaking up?
Speaker 7 (35:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 9 (35:23):
Well, you know, if you're lucky, you don't have to
break up at all, and maybe you can get them
to love each other enough you can date both of them.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
We live in the real world.
Speaker 7 (35:30):
But what you heard me?
Speaker 1 (35:33):
Did you say what I think you said?
Speaker 5 (35:34):
Laar is?
Speaker 7 (35:35):
I'm not kidding?
Speaker 2 (35:36):
Really, what world.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Are you outside the world I come from? I don't
know what world you're living in.
Speaker 9 (35:40):
But no, if you don't think your girlfriend will be
okay with you being in love with her best friend,
you should probably figure out which one you like more
and also see if the relationship would be able to
be sustained, because yeah, a lot of girlfriends won't want
to come between their friendship or maybe they do.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Eh bends Jack writes in but we will take a
call or too, if you want to call an eight
seven seven ninety nine On Fox with The Queen of
Hearts with Lorena mad Jack says, should one act swiftly
with love at first sight or take the time to
get to know someone better over time? Yeah? Well, if
(36:20):
there is really something such as love at first sight,
then why would you bother waiting because you love right?
Speaker 7 (36:25):
No, I think it's more lust at first sight.
Speaker 1 (36:27):
Ben, There's nothing wrong with that.
Speaker 7 (36:29):
No, no.
Speaker 9 (36:30):
But also usually when you lust it first, you realize
you really don't have a lot in comment after that.
So if you want your number to go up and
your connection to stay small. Maybe you can go.
Speaker 7 (36:40):
At it faster. But if you really want a connection,
I suggest you wait.
Speaker 1 (36:44):
Are you talking about the scoreboard?
Speaker 4 (36:45):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Yeah, yeah, Well if you're asking guys, I think the
guys are gonna they don't want their number to go up.
They don't. Yeah, I don't really worry about it.
Speaker 7 (36:53):
I'm sure they don't care.
Speaker 9 (36:54):
But in regular situation, they want to be like wil
Chamberlain is what they want to be, Like, how many
can I get?
Speaker 1 (36:59):
You know, you know, Wilt Chamberlain.
Speaker 7 (37:01):
What did he do?
Speaker 8 (37:02):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (37:02):
Will Chamberlain on of a great all time NBA place.
He wrote a book in the late nineties, said he
slept with twenty thousand women. Stop it, that's what he claimed.
Speaker 7 (37:11):
Really, how many women is that a day?
Speaker 1 (37:14):
Well, a friend of mine, Doug Gricryan, who used to
be a radio guy, Doug did the math. He covered
Wilt Chamberain. We played for the lake. He said, no way,
the math doesn't work. It's impossible, bull crap because it
would have to be like two or three a day
during the you know, the season, and the math travel.
Speaker 7 (37:31):
Crazy blood flow for that. Anyways, next, well, you'd.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Have to have available people that would be willing to
do it. That would be the other problem. That would
be uh, that would be a problem as well.
Speaker 7 (37:40):
My hometown.
Speaker 1 (37:41):
All right, well, hollering James called up. You know this
guy definitely needs love advice, hollering James. Yes, hollering James
are on with the Queen of Hearts.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
Hey, Queen, I gotta ask you a question. How come
I wear around people so much like Ben and some
of the other callers that I just don't get up
appreciate it? Are the much love that I need? I
need to find love somewhere, not to pay for it,
but to find true love. I reached you out of
the wrong places. How do I reach out to the
(38:11):
right places? I need to go to the library, the
bookstore I need to read.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yes, the library. You always find love at the library there.
Speaker 9 (38:19):
You know. I do suggest just getting out in general,
finding love is really hard because that you know, you
have to actually make a connection, and if you're not
good at connecting with people face to face, that can
be a problem. I think I've said this to another
listener before. Online dating might be your thing. You can
catfish people. Catfishing does really well for a lot of people.
You don't have to show your face and you still
get affection. You just no one's gonna hug you.
Speaker 1 (38:40):
Are you recommending catfishing?
Speaker 9 (38:42):
Is that if it's your only option? Ben, Yes, I
am suggesting catfish.
Speaker 1 (38:46):
Okay, that's why she's the Queen of Arts. Real quick,
the King Rory quickly says, do women find two men
kissing a turn on like men find two women kissing eternal?
Speaker 9 (38:56):
I can't say for everyone's sexuality is fluid. I think
sexual reality in general like something that you see, something
that you can get a little feisty, like ooh.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
I'm going that as a no. I'm going I'm going
I'm going no on that one. I think Queen of
Hearts right there,
