Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. Welcome, it's our number one of the
original Recipe podcast recorded overnight the Ben Mather Show, and
we begin a new week here on this fifth day
of August, and we start with football. How do you
explain the Raiders star wide out DeVante Adams comparing Gardner
(00:23):
Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to Aaron Rodgers, who goofed. I've
got to know. Also, what is your viewpoint on John
Gruden wearing Chiefs gear helping out Andy Reid? And when
you first saw Alex Smith showing off his mangled leg.
What do you think. We'll talk about all of those
(00:44):
stories and many more right now. You're gonna love it
unless you don't. It's our number one studying that silver
and black propaganda. If you will.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Welcome in the beginning a brand spake in new week
of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the air
everywhere as we come out a swing it.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
We know we make those bad decisions and they make amazing,
amazing stories coast to coast, border the order and beyond.
On the vast and fantastically powerful microphones of fs are
emmun neating live from the secret, the best kept secret
(01:32):
in the middle of the night we are 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 recommending in stars.
That was close to the attendance we had at the
Mallard Meet and greeting bigas about ten thousand give or
take ty raq dot Com the Way Tire Buying Show
(01:56):
be So our lead this we will get to the
festivious weekend. We think everyone that came out, people traveled
from great distances to hang out with us, and we
were flattered by that. We think, we hope you made
it home safely. But our lead this hour from so Cow.
That is where the Raiders are holding training camp the Raiders.
I have to get all my my Raider monologues in
(02:17):
because uh, you know, who knows, who knows how this
is going to go? Probably not great, probably not great. Well,
that is where so Cow, where the Raiders are holding
training camp as they prepare for the upcoming NFL regular season.
And they're one of a handful of teams that has
our interest.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
The reason they have our interest is because they don't
have a starting quarterback. There's a quarterback drama orama going
on with the Raiders on who is going to be
the starters they prepare here, it's wide open, wide open,
legit wide open. Here. The top pass catcher for the Raiders,
who's still there even though he wants to play for
(02:55):
the Jets, has chimed in. If you didn't hear Raider
wide out DeVante Adams saying that he's still getting comfortable
with both Aidan O'Connell and Gardner Minshew, the two guys
who were duking it out. What a contest this is,
he said, quote, I got my intentnas up for everything,
Davonte Adams said, regarding the quarterback battle, if you will,
(03:20):
Adams then boldly compared his relationship. This is my favorite part,
So Deavonte Adams comparing his relationship with O'Connell, Aidan O'Connell
and Gardner Minshew to the one he had all those
years in Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers back in the
salad days of that team, and saying that it wasn't
(03:40):
just about the reps, talking about the relationship and the
communication and watching film and all this stuff. So let
us discuss the question, how do you explain DeVante Adams
seemingly comparing Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to Aaron Roger.
(04:00):
So I've got Selena Gomez, Catwalk and House of Horrors,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to make a nice night's sleep, which
I haven't gotten in a few days. I don't normally
sleep that well anyway, say hectic a few days. So
a DeVante Adams is working here, he's working extra to
(04:25):
fill the content machine. For that, we are grateful, we
are I appreciate guys like Davontae Adams that do my
job make my job easier. So it's not that hard.
He's going above and beyond the call of duty on
this one and not quite up to the dial a
quote status for Devonte Adams. But when you come out
and are comparing Aaron Rodgers Hall of Famers, say what
(04:47):
you want about Rogers going to the Hall of Fame
and Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell, that's a bit much.
So we know what Adams is doing. Devontae Adams as
a distant relative of Nostradamis and friend of no Stradenas.
Devonte Adams is humming bars, He's pulled out an old
Selena Gomez song, Kill him with kindness. He is just
(05:08):
killing them with kindness, smothering both of them in praise,
a bathtub of praise is what he's doing now. Nevertheless,
Devonte Adams, who if the Jets called up and made
an offer the Raiders would accept, would say hallelujah and
go off and play for Aaron Rodgers. But Davante Adams
knows the recipe is the same. We all know the
recipes are the same, the names are different, but the
(05:31):
core ingredients to make the dish are the same. That
the quarterback watches the film, check, the quarterback communicates with
the player. Check check right that you have open dialogue.
All of that right when the dust settles. Now our vote,
and we're never wrong about these things, Our vote goes
to the man that likes to wear jeorts. That's who
(05:54):
should be the starting core act there is now. I'll
tell you right now, if the Raiders go that direction
with Gardner Minshew, they are going to be a wild
card team in the AFC. Oh my god, you can't
say that was wrong with you. You can'ts a telling you
Gardner Mischee pound for pound should be starting in Vegas.
(06:14):
He should be right. And they supposed they have a
pretty good defense. They they think they're gonna have a
top five defense to the Raiders, and just Gardner Michaue
will suck for a couple of games. He'll be really
good for a couple of games, but it'll be pretty
average for most of the games. And that's all you need.
That's all you need. And remember last year the Raiders
big win was against the Chiefs in a game Aidan
O'Connell started in. But if I remember correctly, they didn't
(06:36):
even throw the pass a forward pass in the second
half of that game. But you have DeVante Adams until
you get rid of him. And they're all hyped up
about brock Bauers the tight and they got out of
Georgia in the draft. So there are some playmakers allegedly there.
Now page two, we now pivot to the Raiders Alumni
Association and a black guy for Chucky Boy, John Gruden.
(07:01):
Did you see this over the weekend? John Gruden spotted
at Chiefs camp. Okay, so fine, he's there hanging out,
but what was he wearing? He was decked out from
head to toe with Kansas City chief merchandise. He had
the merch on, he had the merch on, he had
the red and the yellow, red and yellow, red and yellow,
(07:21):
had all that on from top to bottom. There out
there playing grab ass with the other coaches on Kansas City.
And this, of course created a visceral reaction. Oh my,
I can't believe John Gruden would do that. Why would
John Gruden do that? Oh my god, from Raider Nation,
the faux outrage department. So Chucky boy was in bed
(07:42):
with the enemy. Of course, not the enemy right now
because he didn't work for the Raiders anymore. In fact,
he's suing the NFL. So what is your viewpoint on
John Gruden being photographed, videoed wearing Kansas City Chiefs merchandise
there at training camp. So it did it looked awkward,
It looked odd. I will admit that I'm not a
(08:03):
Raider fan or anything like that, but having known John Gruden,
I know he coached in Tampa Bay and whatnot. But
this guy oozing out propaganda about the Raiders and there
was John Gruden wearing Kansas City Chiefs colors on the sidelines.
It did seem like it was some kind of mind
hacked optical illusion, as I said, seeing Gruden out there
(08:25):
and on the catwalk doing a pirouette as he's wearing
his enemy colors or it used to be enemy colors there.
Understandable though if you wanted a puke in your mouth
this whole situation. Gruden persona non grata in NFL coaching
circles as far as being a head coach, will likely
never be a head coach again, and not welcome with
(08:47):
the Raiders. He was collateral damage in a very bizarre
hit job. And I remember Brent Musburger said, a professional
hit job, not the usual gumbas. As Brent Musburger said,
when that went down, they went to the Wall Street
Journal in New York Times to take out John Gruden
with that email dump. But this is bigger than a rivalry.
(09:08):
We know how this works here. John Gruden and Andy
Reid are besties. They go way back to a common
bond that they share. You go back to the Green
Bay Packers and Mike Holmgren's coaching staff in the mid
to late nineties, and they were all together there a
band of upstart coaches trying to make their way in
(09:29):
the NFL, and so there is a connection. There's a
kinship between Andy Reid and John Gruenelch likely is why
Gruden ended up out there. Or he's just sport. He's
doing stuff with the Saints last year, and he probably
I'll do some more stuff for them this year. Not
last word here. So we go now to the retirement home.
Several of you wanted me to barf in my mouth
(09:52):
because you sent me a photograph that made me want
to do that. My only conclusion is that that's why
you sent it to me. It involves a former NFL
quarterback Alex Smith. Now you might remember six years ago
Alex Smith shattered into little pieces lit. The little pieces
is tibia and fibula, snap, crackle, pop gone cela. Now,
(10:16):
somehow he came back and played in the NFL's played
for the Washington football team at the time. I don't
know if they were called the Redskins then or not,
but that's the way he was playing. And despite the
incident occurring six years ago, randomly, Alex Smith decid, you know,
I don't send that out. I don't set a photo
out of my leg. I want you, I want the
world to see my leg, And so he sent out
(10:38):
a picture of his shattered leg, which was put back
together with glue and some duct tape and they put
it back together and of course went viral. So that
let us discuss when you first saw the leg of
Alex Smith, his mangled, mutilated leg, what did you think?
All right, so this obviously this is like a Halloween
(11:01):
house of horrors, that situation. That was my first thought, like,
whoa dude, how can even walk on that? And something
should be kept private. You don't need to show the
world that, no need to scare children, You don't have
to do that. But it really is nightmare fuel. It's
nightmare juice, is what it is. And this guy mutilated
(11:22):
from what because he's a gladiator, barbarism back in the
day when he's playing Washington here. The fact that he's
able to stand up though and walk around is wild,
and that he came back to play in the NFL.
That leg is bad to the bone. Literally, there's hardly
any bone there anyway. It is the Bane Malor Show.
(11:43):
If you would like to be part, you can join
us here speak easy rules are in effect. But we'll
talk about the meet and greet that we did in Vegas,
like a little bit about that as we go through
the night here. Thanks to everyone again that showed up,
had a great turnout, good crowd, Everyone seemed to have
a good time. There was like one guy that didn't
have a good time, but that's all right. Everyone else
had a good time, so that made up for it.
That made up for the one guy they didn't have
a good time. We'll take your calls also on X
(12:05):
at Ben Mahler, that is at Ben Mahler if you'd
like to be part of the program. That way, and
he's got the name, but does he still have the game.
We'll get to that and we will do it next.

Eddie Garcia, your humble sidekick, the voice of Reason, your
news guy. You're announcer guy. I'm at Eddie on Fox. Yeah,
(13:24):
I like that Atli from the tirack dot com Fox
Sports Radio studios. All of us back from the Malor
meet and greet, except Coop.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's Ben Mallor, and I think Coop's out in Barstow somewhere.
He couldn't make it back. He stopped there.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Well, he wasn't doing too well at poker from what
I understand.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
So yeah, Well, they say when you're not doing well,
just stay longer. That's what they say. They always own.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
That's the rumor.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
The people that run the casinos want you to stay
longer if you're losing money. That's It's like the same
trick they use in Wall Street. When a stock goes down,
you buy the dip. They always say, buy the dip,
right buy the dip. When you lose your ass at poker,
just bet more money. It's the way to do it.
So anyway, it's good, a good time. I know you
flew in for the day there. It's very nice for
you to do that. Vegas, Baby, Vegas. Three times you
(14:11):
were being chauffeured around by I was Big Lou as
he was shuttling my ass around everywhere.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Thank you Lou.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
He's on number two, Big Lou.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
Big Lou was so nice.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah, very nice.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
Yeah, he's a good guy who's been in here before.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Showing off his singing skills, as did a number of
Malamush members. I was not expecting that, including Lorenoy the
way amazing.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Well, we expected Loraine to do that now, super Marcus
Steve Wright since says, with all these great pop song
references you make, we couldn't get you to sing one
song at the Mallard meet and greet Lorena, her song
was like a performance by Miley Cyrus. Wow, super Marcus
Steve sucking up to you.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
By the way he had the shirt. Did you see
the shirt supermarket Steve was wearing.
Speaker 7 (14:51):
I loved it.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Yeah, come on on the front and the back. Yes,
And We had multiple listeners with Mallard Militia Renegade on
undercover shirts that we had. Our buddy from Reno came down.
He had the Mallem Milicia shirts, so it was very cool.
It's neat to see and I think supermarkets Steve is
still in Vegas. I don't know though, Let's see here.
The specialist says, no wrap up of the Olympic golf
(15:14):
and Olympic Tennis. Now, I'm good. I'm all right. I
don't need that. Casey Car Haller says, Chief Chucky is
the biggest troll job ever. The Casey Car Haller says,
the relationship with that alcoholic lady who wanders the neighborhood
asking for spare change is the same as the relationship
I have with my mother. Wow a plus on the
(15:37):
Mallard monologue, thank you for that. The thank you nonsense
from Mark the full name guy complaining about something. Not
sure what that is, but I'm sure he's got a gripe.
He always complains. That's all the guy does. He's not
grateful for anything there, don't worry, it's just that's right.
The sticky one right since says the Raiders are eternal
(15:57):
flame dumpster fire of the NIF as the Jets are
the talented dumpster fire of the NFL. You got it
all figured out, You get it all figured out. You
feed me from Chicago Rights and he says, he Hey, Mallard,
a plus on the mal Of monologue, and he salute
to those that enjoyed the Mallet meet and greet this
weekend before the stock market crash. Be sure to tune
in to Hard Knocks featuring dumb Bears tomar So, he says,
(16:23):
Art Puffin checks in. He says, a plus and a
free role in the craps table on the opening malle
Of monologue. Was just about to tune out when you
started the week talking about the sorry traders. Let you
slide because you found a way to infuse airon Rogers.
(16:44):
But you forgot to mention Wilson. I did not, that's true.
Let's go to the phones to take a call too.
Let's say hello to Aeni Meenie miney mo. Let's say
hello to Immanuel, who's in Fremont, California. It's going on
in Manuel, Well, hey, I just.
Speaker 9 (17:01):
Wanted to touch on something that you were mentioning. When
I was driving I heard you talking about Alex. I
just wanted to endorse that guy for as many years
as he was a quarterback for my San Francisco forty
nine ers. Last summer, the guy walked into my work
and I worked at the time, I worked for the
State of California Department of Motor Vehicles. The guy she's
(17:23):
in there without, you know, making a big to do that.
I'm Alex Smith. And you know a lot of the
guys here in the Bay Area love to call the
head so we can prepare a little room for him
so they don't have to intermingle with the masses. Alex
just walked in sat in the lobby as if all
six four blond hair, blue eyed of him, nobody would notice.
(17:44):
He's stuck out like a sword thumb. In fact, my
co worker and I were like, is that Alex? So
I went up to him. I said, you know you're
not You're not fooling anybody, right, So you know, he
gives this Alex Smith sheepish grin and he says, oh, okay.
I said, I go to my window help you. You know,
I don't even think I passed that lady's I test appropriately.
(18:05):
I rushed through it and got her out in and
out just so I could usher Alex in, and I
was telling him, I can't believe that you're here just
doing this. My buddy will never believe it. He said, well,
then grab your camera. When we're done, we will take pictures.
And I thought that was very gracious on them. But
that does not escape the fact that when I was
in a search party way back in two thousand and
(18:27):
what was that twelve for Seattle lea more, Alex Smith
came down in one of those search parties when he
when he was still a quarterback for the Niners, and
he brought McDonald's for everybody little out here.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Yeah, many stories there. I'm more fascinated. I didn't know
you could call the DMV and get a private room.
I didn't know that was even You should try that, Ben. Yes,
I'm a big name. I never get that. I have
to wait in line with the unwashed? How does that work?
How's that work? You call up, You're like, hey, don't
you know who I am? He blew me off, and
then they give you the side the room. I thought
you just everyone had to go to the DMV and
(19:03):
wait in line. I didn't know you get VIP treatment.
Some people. What's up with that?
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Hey, Kaepernick used it, Jerry's used it. Yeah, they let
us know ahead of time that they're coming through, and
can you just usher him in the back so they
don't have to draw a large stroud to themselves. And
you know, me acting the way I was, anybody that
could have figured out who Alex would have been alerted
by by fanboy number one.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, well you gave him, but you did give him
extra special treatment though, which is fine. But he didn't.
That's good. That's good to hear that he's acted like
a normal human being. I like to hear that. That's nice.
You know, you don't need to advertise everything.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
What's funny is my my buddy was like, if you
only knew half the stuff you were saying about him
early on in his career, but we won't go there.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Well, of course that's how. That's how his work say.
It's always like that. I will thank you for the story, Emanuel.
There you go, big, big props to Alex Smith. I
had no idea, Like, you know, Eddie, how about this,
next time I go to the d m V, I'll
have Eddie call up and pretend to be like my
manager and say yes, guy Mallor. He is a big
name guy.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
I've never heard of this person.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I have no idea this. No, No, it's a big
big and yeah he's what times, Well he's on, he's on.
I don't worry about that. But just he needs a
special treatment. You can go to Eddie.
Speaker 5 (20:18):
You can go to any Department of Motor Vehicles, right
and and do that. Maybe we have a listener that
works as the d m V. Well this, yeah, the
guy to just call right, you just have to drive
to the Bay Area.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Yeah, I didn't even know it was a thing though.
I had no idea that was a thing that you
could just like. It's wild. The raider probably gets that
when she goes to the.
Speaker 8 (20:38):
D m V.
Speaker 10 (20:38):
She's probably I only go to the d m V
in Oregon because there's never a line, and I'm a resident.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Well that would make sense that it's working. Never a line,
never a line from a small town in Organ.
Speaker 10 (20:51):
Yeah, there's like seven hicks in there, doesn't there's always
a line at the them drive.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
And nobody knows how to drive in her town. They
use they actually use horses. It's it's old school. They
use horse and buggy. It's how they get around. You
call uber and there's two horses that come in.
Speaker 7 (21:07):
They don't have an uber in that town.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
No, there's two horses and a wagon.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Oh yeah, they do have that.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, but yeah, a Reek in Minnesota is up with
us late, he says b plus of them out of
monologue to start. I thought the Mallard meet and greet
was the next weekend. I worked all weekends so I
could come out to Vegas next weekend. Got my flight
out Thursday, returning Sunday. Uh yeah, that's uh, that's not
gonna How did I miss this by a full week? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
We got I'm bummed out because you've come out and
you've traveled to hang out with us and stuff. So
I don't know what happened. But it's not like we
gave the wrong date, right, we gave the right date.
It was all posted on social media.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
I don't think everyone else showed up like a week
early by accident.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
No, I'm happy, Edie. A lot of people said they
were going to be that most of them showed up.
There were a few people that at RSVP that weren't there.
I want to think slug.
Speaker 6 (21:55):
Who well done.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I mean they had the menu. We all had food items.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
I loved my margarita, the spicy holpen.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
You did slug talk to you beforehand or he just
came up with that on his own.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
You know, he didn't talk to me.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Okay, Yeah, they had a knockoff version of the Mallard
chicken fingers, the original Mallard chicken fingers in Kansas City.
But that was cool to see. So that was that
was pretty neat and a good time. I didn't know
the karaoke thing.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Was going to be part of the night, nor did I.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Now I would have done it, but you know, it
takes me about five hundred dollars to do karaoke. That's
my that's my rate there.
Speaker 7 (22:30):
Wow, nobody offered me the five Did you see me shaking?
Speaker 6 (22:34):
You were?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
You were the star there?
Speaker 6 (22:36):
You were You're you're shaking your booty.
Speaker 7 (22:39):
I was literally shaking.
Speaker 10 (22:40):
That's why I had to walk because I would have
started convulsing. You're nervous, Oh my gosh, I've never That
was my first time.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
You've never done karaoke?
Speaker 7 (22:49):
That was my first time.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Who was the guy in the cowboy hat? I never
got around to sing. He was good, he was he
was a pretty good singer. Chugs like Cho was one
of the one of the tried to connect with everybody,
but he was one of the guys I just never.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Yeah, I didn't either talk to I don't know.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
Maybe he just came up to sing and then left.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
He worked there.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Maybe he worked there. Maybe he was all right on
the staff there. That would explain why he didn't come
up to us. Ed if he worked out, he probably
didn't really care who we were, right, he just wanted
to get his And then we had this whole upstairs,
Like I'm worried. Some people showed up and didn't see anything.
I thought, all, this is empty.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh that's true. But I didn't think about that because
we were upstairs. So was there a I know there
were some some signs of my face around. We were
launching a full investigation about that.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
But that was comedy.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Were there any other signs?
Speaker 1 (23:35):
So do we know? Do we know who made the sign?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Don't I think it was to Well, that's like his
I would say he's suspect number one.
Speaker 10 (23:45):
On that and shout out to Surfer Todd's wife. She said,
I am the yum yum of this. Show them the
yum yum of this show, and it was probably my
favorite thing I've heard in a long time. The yum
y the yum yum. We will have a d m
V update, Eddie. Nobody wants to talk sports. They want
to talk DMV.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
We have some goodline that's much more important content anyway
than talking sports. But right now, let's get you cut
up on everything going on in the overnight and we
say hello to the cabana boy, Eddie Garci.
Speaker 6 (24:15):
All right, thanks Ben.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
We had a bit of a golden day for the
United States over at the Olympics, with US sprinter Noah
Lyles winning one of the signature event of the games,
taking gold, and he wanted a meter dash by five
thousandth of a second. It was a photo finish, a
gaggle of runners all reaching the line about the same time.
But again US sprinter Noah Lyles is the winner, edging
(24:36):
out a runner from Jamaica. US took gold in the
women's four by one ord meter relay, while American Bobby
Fink took gold in the fifteen hundred meter freestyle. American
Scotti Scheffler won golden golf, and American Christin Walter took
gold in the cycling road race. US women's basketball tav
Germany eighty seven to sixty eight. Far as the medal count,
it's the totals, USA blowing everybody away. Seventy one total
(24:58):
medals golds, tied with China for the most. We've also
got twenty six silver and twenty six bronze as well.
Baseball games have note the White Sox lose to the
Twins twelve to seven. That's twenty losses in a row
for Chicago.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, short, oh in sixteen since the All Star breaks.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
That break did them very well the All Star breaks.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Yes, they've tried to recharge the batteries.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Good.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
One lost short of tying the American League record for
the longest mostually.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You know who they play next, though, Eddie, the A's Yeah,
that's a winnable series. That's so, those are winnable games.
The A's blow.
Speaker 6 (25:30):
I have confidence. The Wide Socks can joy.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
The Orioles beating the Guardians nine to five in the
battle of division leaders. Cleveland on top of the Al
Central still has the best record in baseball right now
at sixty seven and forty four, despite that defeat. Baltimore, meanwhile,
With that win, they stay on top in the ALE
East by one game on the Yankees. Yankees did keep
pace with a four to three win over the Blue
Jays and ten also Battle of Division leaders, Phillies snapped
their six game skid. The NL East leaders shut out
(25:54):
the AL West leading Mariners six to nothing, but Seattle
is still on top in the AL West a game

one to nothing. Dodgers NL West leaders edge the A's
three to two. Brewers n L Central Leaders fall to

Onthtireck dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
So he's got the name, but does he have any
game left? Quadre Diggs agreeing to a contract over the weekend,
the safety who was really good at one point in
his career. But the fact that he's un employed or
was unemployed and is now I like Los signing with
the Tennessee Titans will tell you that there wasn't a
(27:08):
lot of interest in mister Diggs. But he agreed to
terms with the Titans. So he'll go into the secondary,
and they're trying to recreate that great Seattle Seahawks secondary
because Jamal Adams is there. He's reunited. It feels so good.
It worked out very well in Seattle to have Adams
and Digs in the same defensive secondary, so I can
only imagine it'll be even better in Tennessee. But the
(27:31):
problem is he aged out. He's thirty one, nine year
NFL career, and that's about the point diminishing returns pop up.
It's about the point that happens. Hey as the nation
is struggling with rising expenses. Fox Sports Radio and tire

(28:40):
he is boarding his plane at the airport in Vegas
heading back to Knoxville, Tennessee. He flew out for the
weekend from Knoxville to hang out with us and JT
the Wingman. This guy's gone above and beyond the call duty.
He was at the malord meet and greet. We did
in Minnesota the Mermaid and he showed up in Charleston,
South Carolina.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
Is that the guy in the blue shirt?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Was he wearing a blue shirt?
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Yeah, he was in the front of the picture. I'm
pretty sure.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
Check.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Hold on, let me check the photo here. Hold on second.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
He was like, I've gone to all of them.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah, okay, that probably so probably so. Yeah, he's been
to the last three big ones that we've had, and
he's going back. He's from I think he's from Minnesota,
but he lives in Tennessee now and so it worked
out and it was great to see it. It was awesome, wonderful,
and Salsa looked I sat right next to Salsa. Our
buddy from Dallas did not recognize Salsa because he when
(29:31):
I last time I saw him, he had no hair
and no facial hair, and now he had a full
head of hair like Superman. I was like, dude, usually
when people shave their heads because they don't can't grow hairs, Like,
what are you doing? But yeah, he did. And supermarket
Steve is not in Vegas anymore, as he had the
dreaded inventory at the grocery store, so he had to
(29:52):
skid daddle and did.
Speaker 6 (29:54):
You see this is supermarket? Steve also had your shirt on.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Yes, Well, the couple that wears the mat waching shirts
stays together, Is that right? I think so? I think
I read that somewhere she's the one that she made
the Tierra Massoux. Eddie, remember at the mantain?
Speaker 6 (30:08):
Did you guys get a rock?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
I got a rock? Who gave us the rock? Do
we know?
Speaker 7 (30:12):
It's a geode?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But who gave us the Who's the rock? Who gave
us the rock?
Speaker 10 (30:17):
It was our our lovely friend. I'm horrible with names,
That's why I got the name.
Speaker 7 (30:21):
But I know his face.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
You know his face, so that does not help us face.
By the way, did you the rock?
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Rock? Do I crack it open?
Speaker 7 (30:30):
You don't crack it? You get a wet saw?
Speaker 1 (30:33):
What you get a saw?
Speaker 10 (30:37):
Coop's wife said that her dad has one, actually, so
she's going to see if we can get.
Speaker 7 (30:41):
Our rocks opened by him.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
That sounded weird, Yeah, a little weird, but apparently it's
Didn't you want to rock, Eddie? You didn't want to?
Speaker 9 (30:51):
I mean.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I didn't know I wanted a rock, But I guess now,
and now I know, I want I got a rock.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
I needed a rock.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
I want to see what's inside.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Are there like valuable gems in there?
Speaker 7 (31:01):
They're full of crystals.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Eddie doesn't seem like a crystal guy to me. He
doesn't seem like.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
He would be in He looks so shiny. What do
you mean, Ben, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
I don't know what you're talking about there. All right,
Well let's see here YAPHEMI says Alex Smith getting special
treatment of the DMV. I would complain if I was
waiting and got cut in line, he says, well, speaking
of the DMV. Todd is in Portland. He's our DMV insider.
Hello Todd, welcome.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
Hey watched up Ben, thanks for taking my call. Hi Eddie,
Hi Lorena.
Speaker 6 (31:33):
We're good.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
So I got real quick. Lorena can kind of back
me up with this. I do believe you can actually
call in Washington and Oregon and make appointments at DMV.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Well, yeah, you can get No, you can do that
in California too. You can make an appointment. But to
get a private room though, that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 8 (31:53):
Oh, you want the champagne room.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That's what the guy said. The guy said that Kaepernick
and these other guys going to the DMV and they
get the private room, they had to stay away from
the hoy poloit. That's what I would like when I
want to get my own private room. I want to
go to the DV. I'd like snacks, maybe a charcuterie
board that would be nice, ride some cheese, and some
crackers that would be solid.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
That sounds good to me, man, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Yeah, here's a real quick one.
Speaker 8 (32:22):
I'm actually made one hundred bucks at the DMV one day,
and here's how I did it. I went in and
got my ticket. I was two hundred and fifty and
the line was the number was like at twenty five.
So I went out and drove around for like two hours,
two and a half hours, ran errands, came back and
I was like, within thirty this guy comes into DMV.
He sits next to me and he's yelling at his
(32:44):
he was in construction, yelling at his cruise. And you
poured the damn cement wrong. You got a jackhammer the
whole thing up, remeasure and report. He was livid, and
I'm like, rough day, honey, goes man, I need to
get out of here. And I pulled out my ticket
and I showed him the ticket and I said, man,
I'm within thirty and your ticket right now, you're three hours.
(33:07):
And he goes, I'll pay you one hundred bucks for
that ticket right now. I'm like really, He goes, yep.
He went to atm pulled out five twenties and we
kind of did the little I grabbed the money, he
grabbed the ticket. We did the le release and let go.
At the same time. I walked out with the hundred bucks,
came back to the winner, came back the next day
(33:28):
and paid for my paid for what I need to
do at the MV.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Oh that's great. That's actually a good hustle. You should
just go in there even when you don't have a
DMV appointment and just see if you can find people.
Speaker 8 (33:39):
I was thinking about that, but you know what's going
to happen is somebody's going to go in in the
DMV and goes, hey, you know, guys, some guy outside
is selling your tickets for a hundred two hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Is that illegal though? Is that I don't know.
Speaker 10 (33:53):
I don't think it's illegal to be smart businessman, Ben,
I don't.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Think that's Why would that be illegal. On what grounds
would that be illegal?
Speaker 8 (34:00):
I'm not quite sure. I wouldn't want to get myself control.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
Oh yeah, you should not take legal advice from me.
But it's like what crime would be violated there? Like,
what are you doing? You have something of value and
they want to pay you for it. I guess the
argument would be you're not paying taxes on it, but
that's not you know, they don't know that, you know, as.
Speaker 8 (34:20):
Far as in my opinion. In my opinion, it's better
than panhandling, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
That is correct. All right, Well, thank you Todd. Tales
of the DMV in Portland from our friend Todd made
a hundred bucks one hundred dollars, one hundred dollars. Way
to go, Mike grow orgasm. Did not have that, did
not have that. Let's you can't read that. Let's see

Burn baby Burn Bernie Williams way back in the nineteen nineties,
September twenty sixth, ninety nine, before I was alive, Eddie,
the nineteen nineties, I wonder what I was like. What
was it like to live through the nineties, ed he
must have an amazing wonders time, man, amazing time before
(38:48):
social media and all that. Supermarket Steve has called up,
Hello supermarket Steve.
Speaker 11 (38:54):
Oh, really quick, bangs, I get back to inventory, counting
all the progressive soup in the back room on that
DMV scam. Wife was out of work for a little
bit when we were living in Long Beach, so she
used to go to the DMV on Monday and Friday mornings.
I be one of the first people on line, typically
about eight back, because you don't want to be that like,
stand out that much to the people who give out
the tickets. She'd get a ticket when they went inside
(39:14):
to hit to start up, start everything up. She would
go to the back of the line. Find the guy,
the second best dressed guy in line, say loud enough
to the first best dress guy.
Speaker 8 (39:22):
I could hear.
Speaker 11 (39:23):
I got a ticket for number five in line, and
you'll be here for eight hour or four hours today.
Speaker 8 (39:28):
If you want my ticket.
Speaker 9 (39:29):
I got one hundred dollars, and then the other guy
would be.
Speaker 11 (39:30):
Like, hey, I got two hundred for that one, and
then she get a bidding war. The best one she
ever got was three hundred and fifty on a Friday.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Do we believe that?
Speaker 6 (39:41):
Good story?
Speaker 11 (39:41):
I mean sounds people don't want to spend three hours
in line.
Speaker 1 (39:47):
Yeah, but you're valuable. Yeah, but your wife doesn't look
like that kind of you know, kind of woman that
would do that.
Speaker 8 (39:53):
When you're out of work.
Speaker 11 (39:54):
You gotta do what you gotta do, and she works
hard and make money for.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
Me, for you, of course, yes, and for us. I
got all right, we'll get back to that. There's a
tomato soup on Aisle seven. You got to get to that,
all right, go away, thank you? All right? Man alive,
good times. And I didn't even get to the craziest
thing that happened at the Malamigrae. Now we've done a lot.
I've done a lot of these things over the years.
There's some real crazy. We'll get to it as we
go through the over And I don't know waste waste
(40:18):
my I'm not that I'm wasting time here, but I
want to let it breathe a little bit. And so
there's some things that happened that were I'll do a
recap this weekend on the Fifth Hour podcast, the traditional
postgame festivities for the Mala meet and gree But there
was something that took place, and I don't know that
you noticed it, ed in my little Tuesday might not notice.
I don't know that lor Rain had noticed it. But
I noticed it because I couldn't get away from it.
(40:41):
It was over the top, wild and crazy. I put
it right up there with Wayne from Southet and some
of the other nonsenses happened at previous MALLA meeting because
this was like right in that top five. No, we
didn't have that with Doc Mike now, but this is
this is up there though, Aready, It's up there.
Here we go. Welcome, it's our number one of the
original Recipe podcast recorded overnight the Ben Mather Show, and
we begin a new week here on this fifth day
of August, and we start with football. How do you
explain the Raiders star wide out DeVante Adams comparing Gardner
(00:23):
Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to Aaron Rodgers, who goofed. I've
got to know. Also, what is your viewpoint on John
Gruden wearing Chiefs gear helping out Andy Reid? And when
you first saw Alex Smith showing off his mangled leg.
What do you think. We'll talk about all of those
(00:44):
stories and many more right now. You're gonna love it
unless you don't. It's our number one studying that silver
and black propaganda. If you will.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Welcome in the beginning a brand spake in new week
of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the air
everywhere as we come out a swing it.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
We know we make those bad decisions and they make amazing,
amazing stories coast to coast, border the order and beyond.
On the vast and fantastically powerful microphones of fs are
emmun neating live from the secret, the best kept secret
(01:32):
in the middle of the night we are 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 recommending in stars.
That was close to the attendance we had at the
Mallard Meet and greeting bigas about ten thousand give or
take ty raq dot Com the Way Tire Buying Show
(01:56):
be So our lead this we will get to the
festivious weekend. We think everyone that came out, people traveled
from great distances to hang out with us, and we
were flattered by that. We think, we hope you made
it home safely. But our lead this hour from so Cow.
That is where the Raiders are holding training camp the Raiders.
I have to get all my my Raider monologues in
(02:17):
because uh, you know, who knows, who knows how this
is going to go? Probably not great, probably not great. Well,
that is where so Cow, where the Raiders are holding
training camp as they prepare for the upcoming NFL regular season.
And they're one of a handful of teams that has
our interest.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Now.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
The reason they have our interest is because they don't
have a starting quarterback. There's a quarterback drama orama going
on with the Raiders on who is going to be
the starters they prepare here, it's wide open, wide open,
legit wide open. Here. The top pass catcher for the Raiders,
who's still there even though he wants to play for
(02:55):
the Jets, has chimed in. If you didn't hear Raider
wide out DeVante Adams saying that he's still getting comfortable
with both Aidan O'Connell and Gardner Minshew, the two guys
who were duking it out. What a contest this is,
he said, quote, I got my intentnas up for everything,
Davonte Adams said, regarding the quarterback battle, if you will,
(03:20):
Adams then boldly compared his relationship. This is my favorite part,
So Deavonte Adams comparing his relationship with O'Connell, Aidan O'Connell
and Gardner Minshew to the one he had all those
years in Green Bay with Aaron Rodgers back in the
salad days of that team, and saying that it wasn't
(03:40):
just about the reps, talking about the relationship and the
communication and watching film and all this stuff. So let
us discuss the question, how do you explain DeVante Adams
seemingly comparing Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell to Aaron Roger.
(04:00):
So I've got Selena Gomez, Catwalk and House of Horrors,
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to make a nice night's sleep, which
I haven't gotten in a few days. I don't normally
sleep that well anyway, say hectic a few days. So
a DeVante Adams is working here, he's working extra to
(04:25):
fill the content machine. For that, we are grateful, we
are I appreciate guys like Davontae Adams that do my
job make my job easier. So it's not that hard.
He's going above and beyond the call of duty on
this one and not quite up to the dial a
quote status for Devonte Adams. But when you come out
and are comparing Aaron Rodgers Hall of Famers, say what
(04:47):
you want about Rogers going to the Hall of Fame
and Gardner Minshew and Aidan O'Connell, that's a bit much.
So we know what Adams is doing. Devontae Adams as
a distant relative of Nostradamis and friend of no Stradenas.
Devonte Adams is humming bars, He's pulled out an old
Selena Gomez song, Kill him with kindness. He is just
(05:08):
killing them with kindness, smothering both of them in praise,
a bathtub of praise is what he's doing now. Nevertheless,
Devonte Adams, who if the Jets called up and made
an offer the Raiders would accept, would say hallelujah and
go off and play for Aaron Rodgers. But Davante Adams
knows the recipe is the same. We all know the
recipes are the same, the names are different, but the
(05:31):
core ingredients to make the dish are the same. That
the quarterback watches the film, check, the quarterback communicates with
the player. Check check right that you have open dialogue.
All of that right when the dust settles. Now our vote,
and we're never wrong about these things, Our vote goes
to the man that likes to wear jeorts. That's who
(05:54):
should be the starting core act there is now. I'll
tell you right now, if the Raiders go that direction
with Gardner Minshew, they are going to be a wild
card team in the AFC. Oh my god, you can't
say that was wrong with you. You can'ts a telling you
Gardner Mischee pound for pound should be starting in Vegas.
(06:14):
He should be right. And they supposed they have a
pretty good defense. They they think they're gonna have a
top five defense to the Raiders, and just Gardner Michaue
will suck for a couple of games. He'll be really
good for a couple of games, but it'll be pretty
average for most of the games. And that's all you need.
That's all you need. And remember last year the Raiders
big win was against the Chiefs in a game Aidan
O'Connell started in. But if I remember correctly, they didn't
(06:36):
even throw the pass a forward pass in the second
half of that game. But you have DeVante Adams until
you get rid of him. And they're all hyped up
about brock Bauers the tight and they got out of
Georgia in the draft. So there are some playmakers allegedly there.
Now page two, we now pivot to the Raiders Alumni
Association and a black guy for Chucky Boy, John Gruden.
(07:01):
Did you see this over the weekend? John Gruden spotted
at Chiefs camp. Okay, so fine, he's there hanging out,
but what was he wearing? He was decked out from
head to toe with Kansas City chief merchandise. He had
the merch on, he had the merch on, he had
the red and the yellow, red and yellow, red and yellow,
(07:21):
had all that on from top to bottom. There out
there playing grab ass with the other coaches on Kansas City.
And this, of course created a visceral reaction. Oh my,
I can't believe John Gruden would do that. Why would
John Gruden do that? Oh my god, from Raider Nation,
the faux outrage department. So Chucky boy was in bed
(07:42):
with the enemy. Of course, not the enemy right now
because he didn't work for the Raiders anymore. In fact,
he's suing the NFL. So what is your viewpoint on
John Gruden being photographed, videoed wearing Kansas City Chiefs merchandise
there at training camp. So it did it looked awkward,
It looked odd. I will admit that I'm not a
(08:03):
Raider fan or anything like that, but having known John Gruden,
I know he coached in Tampa Bay and whatnot. But
this guy oozing out propaganda about the Raiders and there
was John Gruden wearing Kansas City Chiefs colors on the sidelines.
It did seem like it was some kind of mind
hacked optical illusion, as I said, seeing Gruden out there
(08:25):
and on the catwalk doing a pirouette as he's wearing
his enemy colors or it used to be enemy colors there.
Understandable though if you wanted a puke in your mouth
this whole situation. Gruden persona non grata in NFL coaching
circles as far as being a head coach, will likely
never be a head coach again, and not welcome with
(08:47):
the Raiders. He was collateral damage in a very bizarre
hit job. And I remember Brent Musburger said, a professional
hit job, not the usual gumbas. As Brent Musburger said,
when that went down, they went to the Wall Street
Journal in New York Times to take out John Gruden
with that email dump. But this is bigger than a rivalry.
(09:08):
We know how this works here. John Gruden and Andy
Reid are besties. They go way back to a common
bond that they share. You go back to the Green
Bay Packers and Mike Holmgren's coaching staff in the mid
to late nineties, and they were all together there a
band of upstart coaches trying to make their way in
(09:29):
the NFL, and so there is a connection. There's a
kinship between Andy Reid and John Gruenelch likely is why
Gruden ended up out there. Or he's just sport. He's
doing stuff with the Saints last year, and he probably
I'll do some more stuff for them this year. Not
last word here. So we go now to the retirement home.
Several of you wanted me to barf in my mouth
(09:52):
because you sent me a photograph that made me want
to do that. My only conclusion is that that's why
you sent it to me. It involves a former NFL
quarterback Alex Smith. Now you might remember six years ago
Alex Smith shattered into little pieces lit. The little pieces
is tibia and fibula, snap, crackle, pop gone cela. Now,
(10:16):
somehow he came back and played in the NFL's played
for the Washington football team at the time. I don't
know if they were called the Redskins then or not,
but that's the way he was playing. And despite the
incident occurring six years ago, randomly, Alex Smith decid, you know,
I don't send that out. I don't set a photo
out of my leg. I want you, I want the
world to see my leg, And so he sent out
(10:38):
a picture of his shattered leg, which was put back
together with glue and some duct tape and they put
it back together and of course went viral. So that
let us discuss when you first saw the leg of
Alex Smith, his mangled, mutilated leg, what did you think?
All right, so this obviously this is like a Halloween
(11:01):
house of horrors, that situation. That was my first thought, like,
whoa dude, how can even walk on that? And something
should be kept private. You don't need to show the
world that, no need to scare children, You don't have
to do that. But it really is nightmare fuel. It's
nightmare juice, is what it is. And this guy mutilated
(11:22):
from what because he's a gladiator, barbarism back in the
day when he's playing Washington here. The fact that he's
able to stand up though and walk around is wild,
and that he came back to play in the NFL.
That leg is bad to the bone. Literally, there's hardly
any bone there anyway. It is the Bane Malor Show.
(11:43):
If you would like to be part, you can join
us here speak easy rules are in effect. But we'll
talk about the meet and greet that we did in Vegas,
like a little bit about that as we go through
the night here. Thanks to everyone again that showed up,
had a great turnout, good crowd, Everyone seemed to have
a good time. There was like one guy that didn't
have a good time, but that's all right. Everyone else
had a good time, so that made up for it.
That made up for the one guy they didn't have
a good time. We'll take your calls also on X
(12:05):
at Ben Mahler, that is at Ben Mahler if you'd
like to be part of the program. That way, and
he's got the name, but does he still have the game.
We'll get to that and we will do it next.

Eddie Garcia, your humble sidekick, the voice of Reason, your

(13:24):
I like that Atli from the tirack dot com Fox
Sports Radio studios. All of us back from the Malor
meet and greet, except Coop.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
It's Ben Mallor, and I think Coop's out in Barstow somewhere.
He couldn't make it back. He stopped there.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
Well, he wasn't doing too well at poker from what
I understand.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
So yeah, Well, they say when you're not doing well,
just stay longer. That's what they say. They always own.
Speaker 7 (13:46):
That's the rumor.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
The people that run the casinos want you to stay
longer if you're losing money. That's It's like the same
trick they use in Wall Street. When a stock goes down,
you buy the dip. They always say, buy the dip,
right buy the dip. When you lose your ass at poker,
just bet more money. It's the way to do it.
So anyway, it's good, a good time. I know you
flew in for the day there. It's very nice for
you to do that. Vegas, Baby, Vegas. Three times you
(14:11):
were being chauffeured around by I was Big Lou as
he was shuttling my ass around everywhere.
Speaker 6 (14:15):
Thank you Lou.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
He's on number two, Big Lou.
Speaker 7 (14:17):
Big Lou was so nice.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Yeah, very nice.
Speaker 6 (14:20):
Yeah, he's a good guy who's been in here before.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
Showing off his singing skills, as did a number of
Malamush members. I was not expecting that, including Lorenoy the
way amazing.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Well, we expected Loraine to do that now, super Marcus
Steve Wright since says, with all these great pop song
references you make, we couldn't get you to sing one
song at the Mallard meet and greet Lorena, her song
was like a performance by Miley Cyrus. Wow, super Marcus
Steve sucking up to you.
Speaker 8 (14:47):
Now.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
By the way he had the shirt. Did you see
the shirt supermarket Steve was wearing.
Speaker 7 (14:51):
I loved it.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Yeah, come on on the front and the back. Yes,
And We had multiple listeners with Mallard Militia Renegade on
undercover shirts that we had. Our buddy from Reno came down.
He had the Mallem Milicia shirts, so it was very cool.
It's neat to see and I think supermarkets Steve is
still in Vegas. I don't know though, Let's see here.
The specialist says, no wrap up of the Olympic golf
(15:14):
and Olympic Tennis. Now, I'm good. I'm all right. I
don't need that. Casey Car Haller says, Chief Chucky is
the biggest troll job ever. The Casey Car Haller says,
the relationship with that alcoholic lady who wanders the neighborhood
asking for spare change is the same as the relationship
I have with my mother. Wow a plus on the
(15:37):
Mallard monologue, thank you for that. The thank you nonsense
from Mark the full name guy complaining about something. Not
sure what that is, but I'm sure he's got a gripe.
He always complains. That's all the guy does. He's not
grateful for anything there, don't worry, it's just that's right.
The sticky one right since says the Raiders are eternal
(15:57):
flame dumpster fire of the NIF as the Jets are
the talented dumpster fire of the NFL. You got it
all figured out, You get it all figured out. You
feed me from Chicago Rights and he says, he Hey, Mallard,
a plus on the mal Of monologue, and he salute
to those that enjoyed the Mallet meet and greet this
weekend before the stock market crash. Be sure to tune
in to Hard Knocks featuring dumb Bears tomar So, he says,
(16:23):
Art Puffin checks in. He says, a plus and a
free role in the craps table on the opening malle
Of monologue. Was just about to tune out when you
started the week talking about the sorry traders. Let you
slide because you found a way to infuse airon Rogers.
(16:44):
But you forgot to mention Wilson. I did not, that's true.
Let's go to the phones to take a call too.
Let's say hello to Aeni Meenie miney mo. Let's say
hello to Immanuel, who's in Fremont, California. It's going on
in Manuel, Well, hey, I just.
Speaker 9 (17:01):
Wanted to touch on something that you were mentioning. When
I was driving I heard you talking about Alex. I
just wanted to endorse that guy for as many years
as he was a quarterback for my San Francisco forty
nine ers. Last summer, the guy walked into my work
and I worked at the time, I worked for the
State of California Department of Motor Vehicles. The guy she's
(17:23):
in there without, you know, making a big to do that.
I'm Alex Smith. And you know a lot of the
guys here in the Bay Area love to call the
head so we can prepare a little room for him
so they don't have to intermingle with the masses. Alex
just walked in sat in the lobby as if all
six four blond hair, blue eyed of him, nobody would notice.
(17:44):
He's stuck out like a sword thumb. In fact, my
co worker and I were like, is that Alex? So
I went up to him. I said, you know you're
not You're not fooling anybody, right, So you know, he
gives this Alex Smith sheepish grin and he says, oh, okay.
I said, I go to my window help you. You know,
I don't even think I passed that lady's I test appropriately.
(18:05):
I rushed through it and got her out in and
out just so I could usher Alex in, and I
was telling him, I can't believe that you're here just
doing this. My buddy will never believe it. He said, well,
then grab your camera. When we're done, we will take pictures.
And I thought that was very gracious on them. But
that does not escape the fact that when I was
in a search party way back in two thousand and
(18:27):
what was that twelve for Seattle lea more, Alex Smith
came down in one of those search parties when he
when he was still a quarterback for the Niners, and
he brought McDonald's for everybody little out here.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
Yeah, many stories there. I'm more fascinated. I didn't know
you could call the DMV and get a private room.
I didn't know that was even You should try that, Ben. Yes,
I'm a big name. I never get that. I have
to wait in line with the unwashed? How does that work?
How's that work? You call up, You're like, hey, don't
you know who I am? He blew me off, and
then they give you the side the room. I thought
you just everyone had to go to the DMV and
(19:03):
wait in line. I didn't know you get VIP treatment.
Some people. What's up with that?
Speaker 9 (19:07):
Hey, Kaepernick used it, Jerry's used it. Yeah, they let
us know ahead of time that they're coming through, and
can you just usher him in the back so they
don't have to draw a large stroud to themselves. And
you know, me acting the way I was, anybody that
could have figured out who Alex would have been alerted
by by fanboy number one.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Yeah, well you gave him, but you did give him
extra special treatment though, which is fine. But he didn't.
That's good. That's good to hear that he's acted like
a normal human being. I like to hear that. That's nice.
You know, you don't need to advertise everything.
Speaker 9 (19:40):
What's funny is my my buddy was like, if you
only knew half the stuff you were saying about him
early on in his career, but we won't go there.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Well, of course that's how. That's how his work say.
It's always like that. I will thank you for the story, Emanuel.
There you go, big, big props to Alex Smith. I
had no idea, Like, you know, Eddie, how about this,
next time I go to the d m V, I'll
have Eddie call up and pretend to be like my
manager and say yes, guy Mallor. He is a big
name guy.
Speaker 6 (20:07):
I've never heard of this person.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
I have no idea this. No, No, it's a big
big and yeah he's what times, Well he's on, he's on.
I don't worry about that. But just he needs a
special treatment. You can go to Eddie.
Speaker 5 (20:18):
You can go to any Department of Motor Vehicles, right
and and do that. Maybe we have a listener that
works as the d m V. Well this, yeah, the
guy to just call right, you just have to drive
to the Bay Area.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Yeah, I didn't even know it was a thing though.
I had no idea that was a thing that you
could just like. It's wild. The raider probably gets that
when she goes to the.
Speaker 8 (20:38):
D m V.
Speaker 10 (20:38):
She's probably I only go to the d m V
in Oregon because there's never a line, and I'm a resident.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
Well that would make sense that it's working. Never a line,
never a line from a small town in Organ.
Speaker 10 (20:51):
Yeah, there's like seven hicks in there, doesn't there's always
a line at the them drive.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
And nobody knows how to drive in her town. They
use they actually use horses. It's it's old school. They
use horse and buggy. It's how they get around. You
call uber and there's two horses that come in.
Speaker 7 (21:07):
They don't have an uber in that town.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
No, there's two horses and a wagon.
Speaker 7 (21:10):
Oh yeah, they do have that.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
Yeah, but yeah, a Reek in Minnesota is up with
us late, he says b plus of them out of
monologue to start. I thought the Mallard meet and greet
was the next weekend. I worked all weekends so I
could come out to Vegas next weekend. Got my flight
out Thursday, returning Sunday. Uh yeah, that's uh, that's not
gonna How did I miss this by a full week? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
We got I'm bummed out because you've come out and
you've traveled to hang out with us and stuff. So
I don't know what happened. But it's not like we
gave the wrong date, right, we gave the right date.
It was all posted on social media.
Speaker 5 (21:44):
I don't think everyone else showed up like a week
early by accident.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
No, I'm happy, Edie. A lot of people said they
were going to be that most of them showed up.
There were a few people that at RSVP that weren't there.
I want to think slug.
Speaker 6 (21:55):
Who well done.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
I mean they had the menu. We all had food items.
Speaker 7 (22:00):
I loved my margarita, the spicy holpen.
Speaker 1 (22:03):
You did slug talk to you beforehand or he just
came up with that on his own.
Speaker 7 (22:09):
You know, he didn't talk to me.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Okay, Yeah, they had a knockoff version of the Mallard
chicken fingers, the original Mallard chicken fingers in Kansas City.
But that was cool to see. So that was that
was pretty neat and a good time. I didn't know
the karaoke thing.
Speaker 6 (22:22):
Was going to be part of the night, nor did I.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
Now I would have done it, but you know, it
takes me about five hundred dollars to do karaoke. That's
my that's my rate there.
Speaker 7 (22:30):
Wow, nobody offered me the five Did you see me shaking?
Speaker 6 (22:34):
You were?
Speaker 1 (22:34):
You were the star there?
Speaker 6 (22:36):
You were You're you're shaking your booty.
Speaker 7 (22:39):
I was literally shaking.
Speaker 10 (22:40):
That's why I had to walk because I would have
started convulsing. You're nervous, Oh my gosh, I've never That
was my first time.
Speaker 1 (22:48):
You've never done karaoke?
Speaker 7 (22:49):
That was my first time.
Speaker 5 (22:50):
Who was the guy in the cowboy hat? I never
got around to sing. He was good, he was he
was a pretty good singer. Chugs like Cho was one
of the one of the tried to connect with everybody,
but he was one of the guys I just never.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Yeah, I didn't either talk to I don't know.
Speaker 6 (23:06):
Maybe he just came up to sing and then left.
Speaker 7 (23:09):
He worked there.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Maybe he worked there. Maybe he was all right on
the staff there. That would explain why he didn't come
up to us. Ed if he worked out, he probably
didn't really care who we were, right, he just wanted
to get his And then we had this whole upstairs,
Like I'm worried. Some people showed up and didn't see anything.
I thought, all, this is empty.
Speaker 5 (23:24):
Oh that's true. But I didn't think about that because
we were upstairs. So was there a I know there
were some some signs of my face around. We were
launching a full investigation about that.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
But that was comedy.
Speaker 6 (23:34):
Were there any other signs?
Speaker 1 (23:35):
So do we know? Do we know who made the sign?
Speaker 6 (23:38):
No?
Speaker 5 (23:38):
Don't I think it was to Well, that's like his
I would say he's suspect number one.
Speaker 10 (23:45):
On that and shout out to Surfer Todd's wife. She said,
I am the yum yum of this. Show them the
yum yum of this show, and it was probably my
favorite thing I've heard in a long time. The yum
y the yum yum. We will have a d m
V update, Eddie. Nobody wants to talk sports. They want
to talk DMV.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
We have some goodline that's much more important content anyway
than talking sports. But right now, let's get you cut
up on everything going on in the overnight and we
say hello to the cabana boy, Eddie Garci.
Speaker 6 (24:15):
All right, thanks Ben.
Speaker 5 (24:16):
We had a bit of a golden day for the
United States over at the Olympics, with US sprinter Noah
Lyles winning one of the signature event of the games,
taking gold, and he wanted a meter dash by five
thousandth of a second. It was a photo finish, a
gaggle of runners all reaching the line about the same time.
But again US sprinter Noah Lyles is the winner, edging
(24:36):
out a runner from Jamaica. US took gold in the
women's four by one ord meter relay, while American Bobby
Fink took gold in the fifteen hundred meter freestyle. American
Scotti Scheffler won golden golf, and American Christin Walter took
gold in the cycling road race. US women's basketball tav
Germany eighty seven to sixty eight. Far as the medal count,
it's the totals, USA blowing everybody away. Seventy one total
(24:58):
medals golds, tied with China for the most. We've also
got twenty six silver and twenty six bronze as well.
Baseball games have note the White Sox lose to the
Twins twelve to seven. That's twenty losses in a row
for Chicago.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Yeah, short, oh in sixteen since the All Star breaks.
Speaker 6 (25:14):
That's pretty good.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
That break did them very well the All Star breaks.
Speaker 6 (25:17):
Yes, they've tried to recharge the batteries.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Good.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
One lost short of tying the American League record for
the longest mostually.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You know who they play next, though, Eddie, the A's Yeah,
that's a winnable series. That's so, those are winnable games.
The A's blow.
Speaker 6 (25:30):
I have confidence. The Wide Socks can joy.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:33):
The Orioles beating the Guardians nine to five in the
battle of division leaders. Cleveland on top of the Al
Central still has the best record in baseball right now
at sixty seven and forty four, despite that defeat. Baltimore, meanwhile,
With that win, they stay on top in the ALE
East by one game on the Yankees. Yankees did keep
pace with a four to three win over the Blue
Jays and ten also Battle of Division leaders, Phillies snapped
their six game skid. The NL East leaders shut out
(25:54):
the AL West leading Mariners six to nothing, but Seattle
is still on top in the AL West a game

one to nothing. Dodgers NL West leaders edge the A's
three to two. Brewers n L Central Leaders fall to
the Nationals four to three. Checking the wildcard race in

Onthtireck dot Com, Fox Sports Radio Studios.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
So he's got the name, but does he have any
game left? Quadre Diggs agreeing to a contract over the weekend,
the safety who was really good at one point in
his career. But the fact that he's un employed or
was unemployed and is now I like Los signing with
the Tennessee Titans will tell you that there wasn't a
(27:08):
lot of interest in mister Diggs. But he agreed to
terms with the Titans. So he'll go into the secondary,
and they're trying to recreate that great Seattle Seahawks secondary
because Jamal Adams is there. He's reunited. It feels so good.
It worked out very well in Seattle to have Adams
and Digs in the same defensive secondary, so I can
only imagine it'll be even better in Tennessee. But the
(27:31):
problem is he aged out. He's thirty one, nine year
NFL career, and that's about the point diminishing returns pop up.
It's about the point that happens. Hey as the nation
is struggling with rising expenses. Fox Sports Radio and tire

(28:40):
he is boarding his plane at the airport in Vegas
heading back to Knoxville, Tennessee. He flew out for the
weekend from Knoxville to hang out with us and JT
the Wingman. This guy's gone above and beyond the call duty.
He was at the malord meet and greet. We did
in Minnesota the Mermaid and he showed up in Charleston,
South Carolina.
Speaker 7 (29:00):
Is that the guy in the blue shirt?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Was he wearing a blue shirt?
Speaker 7 (29:03):
Yeah, he was in the front of the picture. I'm
pretty sure.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
Check.
Speaker 1 (29:05):
Hold on, let me check the photo here. Hold on second.
Speaker 7 (29:07):
He was like, I've gone to all of them.
Speaker 1 (29:09):
Yeah, okay, that probably so probably so. Yeah, he's been
to the last three big ones that we've had, and
he's going back. He's from I think he's from Minnesota,
but he lives in Tennessee now and so it worked
out and it was great to see it. It was awesome, wonderful,
and Salsa looked I sat right next to Salsa. Our
buddy from Dallas did not recognize Salsa because he when
(29:31):
I last time I saw him, he had no hair
and no facial hair, and now he had a full
head of hair like Superman. I was like, dude, usually
when people shave their heads because they don't can't grow hairs, Like,
what are you doing? But yeah, he did. And supermarket
Steve is not in Vegas anymore, as he had the
dreaded inventory at the grocery store, so he had to
(29:52):
skid daddle and did.
Speaker 6 (29:54):
You see this is supermarket? Steve also had your shirt on.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
Yes, Well, the couple that wears the mat waching shirts
stays together, Is that right? I think so? I think
I read that somewhere she's the one that she made
the Tierra Massoux. Eddie, remember at the mantain?
Speaker 6 (30:08):
Did you guys get a rock?
Speaker 1 (30:10):
I got a rock? Who gave us the rock? Do
we know?
Speaker 7 (30:12):
It's a geode?
Speaker 1 (30:13):
But who gave us the Who's the rock? Who gave
us the rock?
Speaker 10 (30:17):
It was our our lovely friend. I'm horrible with names,
That's why I got the name.
Speaker 7 (30:21):
But I know his face.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
You know his face, so that does not help us face.
By the way, did you the rock?
Speaker 6 (30:28):
Rock? Do I crack it open?
Speaker 7 (30:30):
You don't crack it? You get a wet saw?
Speaker 1 (30:33):
What you get a saw?
Speaker 10 (30:37):
Coop's wife said that her dad has one, actually, so
she's going to see if we can get.
Speaker 7 (30:41):
Our rocks opened by him.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
That sounded weird, Yeah, a little weird, but apparently it's
Didn't you want to rock, Eddie? You didn't want to?
Speaker 9 (30:51):
I mean.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
I didn't know I wanted a rock, But I guess now,
and now I know, I want I got a rock.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
I needed a rock.
Speaker 7 (30:58):
I want to see what's inside.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Are there like valuable gems in there?
Speaker 7 (31:01):
They're full of crystals.
Speaker 1 (31:04):
Eddie doesn't seem like a crystal guy to me. He
doesn't seem like.
Speaker 7 (31:06):
He would be in He looks so shiny. What do
you mean, Ben, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
I don't know what you're talking about there. All right,
Well let's see here YAPHEMI says Alex Smith getting special
treatment of the DMV. I would complain if I was
waiting and got cut in line, he says, well, speaking
of the DMV. Todd is in Portland. He's our DMV insider.
Hello Todd, welcome.
Speaker 8 (31:26):
Hey watched up Ben, thanks for taking my call. Hi Eddie,
Hi Lorena.
Speaker 6 (31:33):
We're good.
Speaker 8 (31:35):
So I got real quick. Lorena can kind of back
me up with this. I do believe you can actually
call in Washington and Oregon and make appointments at DMV.
Speaker 1 (31:46):
Well, yeah, you can get No, you can do that
in California too. You can make an appointment. But to
get a private room though, that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 8 (31:53):
Oh, you want the champagne room.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That's what the guy said. The guy said that Kaepernick
and these other guys going to the DMV and they
get the private room, they had to stay away from
the hoy poloit. That's what I would like when I
want to get my own private room. I want to
go to the DV. I'd like snacks, maybe a charcuterie
board that would be nice, ride some cheese, and some
crackers that would be solid.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
That sounds good to me, man, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (32:19):
Yeah, here's a real quick one.
Speaker 8 (32:22):
I'm actually made one hundred bucks at the DMV one day,
and here's how I did it. I went in and
got my ticket. I was two hundred and fifty and
the line was the number was like at twenty five.
So I went out and drove around for like two hours,
two and a half hours, ran errands, came back and
I was like, within thirty this guy comes into DMV.
He sits next to me and he's yelling at his
(32:44):
he was in construction, yelling at his cruise. And you
poured the damn cement wrong. You got a jackhammer the
whole thing up, remeasure and report. He was livid, and
I'm like, rough day, honey, goes man, I need to
get out of here. And I pulled out my ticket
and I showed him the ticket and I said, man,
I'm within thirty and your ticket right now, you're three hours.
(33:07):
And he goes, I'll pay you one hundred bucks for
that ticket right now. I'm like really, He goes, yep.
He went to atm pulled out five twenties and we
kind of did the little I grabbed the money, he
grabbed the ticket. We did the le release and let go.
At the same time. I walked out with the hundred bucks,
came back to the winner, came back the next day
(33:28):
and paid for my paid for what I need to
do at the MV.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Oh that's great. That's actually a good hustle. You should
just go in there even when you don't have a
DMV appointment and just see if you can find people.
Speaker 8 (33:39):
I was thinking about that, but you know what's going
to happen is somebody's going to go in in the
DMV and goes, hey, you know, guys, some guy outside
is selling your tickets for a hundred two hundred bucks.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Is that illegal though? Is that I don't know.
Speaker 10 (33:53):
I don't think it's illegal to be smart businessman, Ben,
I don't.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Think that's Why would that be illegal. On what grounds
would that be illegal?
Speaker 8 (34:00):
I'm not quite sure. I wouldn't want to get myself control.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
Oh yeah, you should not take legal advice from me.
But it's like what crime would be violated there? Like,
what are you doing? You have something of value and
they want to pay you for it. I guess the
argument would be you're not paying taxes on it, but
that's not you know, they don't know that, you know, as.
Speaker 8 (34:20):
Far as in my opinion. In my opinion, it's better
than panhandling, that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
That is correct. All right, Well, thank you Todd. Tales
of the DMV in Portland from our friend Todd made
a hundred bucks one hundred dollars, one hundred dollars. Way

used to go to the DMV on Monday and Friday mornings.
I be one of the first people on line, typically
about eight back, because you don't want to be that like,
stand out that much to the people who give out
the tickets. She'd get a ticket when they went inside
