Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our number three of the original Recipe podcast Up
All Night, As Tony Soprano said about a bing bout
a boom, So Charles Barkley has unretired. He has walked
back his retirement announcement from TNT. Give me your reaction
to Charles being back in talking hoops and where are
(00:24):
you at on whispers of TNT keeping Charles, Kenny, Shaq
and Ernie together but under a rebranded show. We'll talk
about that in the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds
are going to play a game at Bristol Motor Speedway. Yeah,
that's a NASCAR track in twenty twenty five. Are you
excited about that? We'll go there as well. All of
(00:46):
it's coming your way right now here. It is our
number three. Well, you think of television, you think of drama.
When you think of athletic competition, there's drama, but not
that kind of drama.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
But now there is let me explain.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
We are in the air everywhere tongues old wagon as
we drive the Karma Bus coast to coast, port of
the Border and beyond on the mast and smashingly powerful
microphones of fsre emm nating live from the headquarters as
(01:32):
we are your hot take headquarters. We're broadcasting live from

tyre ract dot com, the way tire buying shuret being
(01:55):
Kathy and Madison, and she's such a big fanh She's
still like ten thousand songs for the show. She wants
to do our number three. She'd like to be the
new number three. But there's a lot of competition for
the new number three and we'll have a team meeting
to decide who is the number three. But our lead
this hour is from the Media Musings Department. My favorite
(02:19):
person on television is going to continue on television. Charles Barkley.
Sir Charles has decided his television future.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Did you see this? Perhaps not?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Warner Brothers Slash Discovery announced that Charles Barkley will not
will not actually be retiring o MG. He will not
be retiring following the upcoming NBA season, which starts around Halloween,
as he had previously announced. Barkley has quote reaffirmed his
(02:55):
commitment to TNT Sports. Oh it's a rec confirm situation. HM.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Interesting, all right.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
So Charles Barkley reaffirming his commitment to TNT Sports, saying quote,
I'm going to give my all as we keep them
meeting the viewers entertained for years to come. So that's
our lead here, Media a musings Charles Barkley saying through
a corporate release that he is going to stay at
(03:28):
Turner's Sports. Let us discuss the question. Charles Barkley, now
walking back his retirement, give me your ridoction on. So
I have epiphany Bunny and Darryl Waltrip, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
(03:50):
to light up the left brain, which is the logic center.
See people accuse me of being a right brain person,
right the emotional sense the brain, But no, no, I'm
a left brain person.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
That's where the logic is. So to begin here, the
first thought I have is I'm gonna spell something out
for you. Why a wn You know what that spells?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yes, yawn, Charles bark this was the easiest story. You
don't have to be a distant relative of Nostradamus and
a friend of Nostrudinus. This was an easy story to call.
Charles Barkley is often illogical. He is an emotional creature.
That is a blessing that can be a curse. It
(04:34):
makes for award winning boob tube. However, it gets you
into the soup because you're so emotional. You've reclemped, right.
He didn't have a cooling off period. This happened during
the NBA Finals. Barkley gave an unfiltered answer in the
raw after a sabbatical couple of months away, and here
(04:58):
we are in early August than about two months or so,
it's more likely than not that what really happened is
the round mound or rebound had an epiphany. After speaking
with his bean counter, the accountant, they looked at the
books and they said, well, listen, Charles, you like the gamble.
That's kind of an expensive hobby, right, So everything kind
(05:21):
of clicked into place.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
You're like, well, it's expensive, and if.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
You're not getting money coming in and you're an investment portfolio,
maybe it's not doing that great er.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Go Charles Barkley. For now, For now, we'll.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Continue on that ten year, two hundred and ten million
dollar contract as times are really tough.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
They're back in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Although I did correspond with some friends who are better
people than me because they work in television, who did
not dismiss the possibility of Barkley's still leaving. Turner that
right now he's saying he's going to stay, but there's
a lot more money out there from from Disney.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I can't ever see.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Barkley working for the buttoned up Wokesters over at Disney,
but Amazon also, I mean, there's other options now.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Secondly, now that Charles Barkley.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Is sticking around, and there's still people, as I said,
that are doubting that Barkley's actually.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Going to stick around.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
But we're also hearing some chatter that TNT is considering
a rebrand of what had been known as Inside the NBA,
and they're going to get rid of the NBA part
and just get rid of the part and to call
it Inside Sports. So that'll be the name of the
new show, and that would allow Charles Barkley the vehicle
(06:37):
with his buddies to not only talk about basketball but
everything else. So where are you at on those whispers,
where are you at on those whispers that TNT keeping
the band together? That Charles, Kenny, Shack and Ernie will
be together under a rebranded television show. So we are
(06:58):
loving it, right McDonald's. But we're loving it and don't
stop the good times. We have long been advocates of this.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
How could you not be?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
How I've never met anyone that has a pulse that
someone I want to hang out with that doesn't like
inside the NBA. Right, And that show was never really
about the NBA.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
It wasn't.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
It's it's kind of And here's how I relate like people.
I've made a lot of listeners who go to these
events and stuff, and I've had conversations with listeners and
often when I'm I'm telling you, listeners like this show
even though most of it is supposedly about sports. The
people that tell me why they listen, it's not because
of the sports.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
So who goofed?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
And But definitely, in my opinion as a consumer, right
my experience as a consumer, I don't even care about
NBA regular season basketball. I care about the playoffs. But
I find myself on Thursdays or Tuesdays, depending on what
night they're on inside the NBA, I'm watching, and often
i'm watching, I'm waiting for the game to end, and
(08:03):
then turning it on. That was just a cover charge
to get you in the door the game. But it
was always about the personality, the fun, the gags. A
variety show. That's what they did on a semi weekly basis,
and TNT they can make this a year round show.
And now Barkley's not gonna work you round, He'll likely
(08:23):
only work during basketball season. But keep the vibe going,
keep the vibe going, bring in the energizer, Bunny, so
they can be the program manager, right, keep.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Going and going and going and going and going to
the show. Can keep going and going and going.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
And you mix and match Barkley and Ernie Johnson until
he retires in Kenny Smith and Shack and you bring
in some random NFL people and MLB people. But in
college as well, because if I'm not mistaken, even with
TNT losing the NBA, turner will still broadcast college basketball,
college football. They'll have baseball, hockey, tennis. I mean, there's
(09:02):
all kinds of crap. I imagine Barkley breaking down tennis. Okay, Now,
final thought, We're gonna sidestep to a sport we just
mentioned Major League Baseball. Now, I'm not gonna sit here
and break down Game two between the fight and fills
for Fats and Philly and my Dodgers. No, no, no,
this is about a couple of other teams that are
(09:22):
both in the National League. We've learned that the Atlanta
Braves and the Cincinnati Reds are going to meet for
one game, one game only. They're gonna get together at
one of the most iconic motorsport venues in this country
or any other country for that matter, and it's gonna
happen next year. My old radio buddy, Evan Drelik, actually
(09:45):
did some radio shows in Boston with Evan from the
Athletic he works there. Now, he tells us that the
Braves and the Reds will face each other at NASCAR's
notorious Bristol Motors speed Way.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
In beautiful Bristol, Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
That'll be next year, an official announcement likely coming down
the pike on Friday, thumbs up or thumbs down on
the Braves and the Reds playing a game at Bristol
Motor Speedway in twenty twenty five. So I'm gonna go
thumbs up. Now, I've never been to Bristol Motor Speedway.
(10:23):
I did drive by Darlington when I was in South Carolina, and.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
That blew me away. This massive NASCAR track in the
middle of nowhere.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
From what I've been told, what I've been told, the
situation in Bristol is even crazier in terms of NASCAR
and how big that is. Really just there's not much around.
It's out in the boondogs, right, And so I like
this and it continues the I guess the mantra of baseball.
(10:51):
They want to change it up and as Daryl Waltrip
used to say, bugging and bugger, bugge and buys, let's
go racing, right, Let's go play some another notch in
the bedpost of Major League Baseball. This barn storming initiative.
And in recent years they have had games at the
fields of the Field of Dreams.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Stadium in Iowa. That's where Iowa Sam showed up got.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Hammered the Rickwood Field in Birmingham, which.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They just did this past year.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
The timing was not particularly great, or maybe it was
the same. I think it was a day after William
May has passed away and Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
They sided the League World Series. I think they've got
to continue this.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You do NASCAR, and I said this years ago, they
could do this with basketball. How about you get one
of those giant Navy aircraft carriers and put a baseball
stadium on that. I could put a baseball field on
that play game and a home run goes out in
the Atlantic or the Pacific or wherever.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
How much fun would that be?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
And this continues Major League Baseball. They've expanded the international schedule.
They played games recently in London, Mexico City, Tokyo, Seoul, Uh,
you name it. It is the Ben Maler Show. If
you'd like to talk about any of that, you can
join us. Screamshout, yell, all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (12:17):

actually ready to leave Miami. He's been arrested so much
he's finally ready to throw in the sponge and say
no moss and go somewhere else. He'd like somewhere warm,

and rightfully so, rightfully so now coming up later this hour.

Speaker 2 (15:24):
Here is the Mallard riddle of the day. The Ravens
did their fumble recovery drill where the rookies go after
the ball while getting blank.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
All right, now, Sports with Coleman got this right.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
He obviously cheated because he was at Ravens training camp,
so bad, bad job by him.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
He's the Altuve of this. He pulled an eddy and
got it right.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Art Puffin says, the rookies go after the ball while
getting stiff armed.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
That's the answer.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Late Night drug tester says the fumble drill while getting
the Starbucks order. Robin Vegas hays, while getting a colonoscopy
is the is the answer?

Who else do we have?

Who else do we have?

Page down Mallard prop guy says the Ravens rookies get
relationship advice from the Queen of Hearts Loraina, Yes, Yes,

Beach in the OC says, while getting smeared is the answer.

Speaker 2 (16:51):

A hawk tour it from Fudgie in Boston while getting
serenaded by John Harbaugh from Mark and Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Who else do we have? King Roy says.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
They fight over the mick pickle or mick pinckle? Is
the lady's pink pickle? That's a but that's that's disgusting.
That's AI generated. Mike the Leprechaun from Boston just said,
Larry Bird.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
He screamed that out.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Alf the Alien Opiner went with crabs as his answer,
Milkman Mike, and Colorado says they hit them with the
soap on a rope.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Wow, all right?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Waterboarded from Eke in Roseville, Minnesota is the answer. Matt
the Warrior Raider, Tom Brady, rose Fan. He's a cheater,
so we're not gonna read his answer. Andy, do you
have an answer, Eddie please? It's the Mallard riddle of
the day.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
Ah. Yes, they were eating a cotton candy burrito.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Okay, you see you said you didn't like it, but
you brought it up two hours later.

Speaker 6 (17:52):
Disgusting?
Speaker 2 (17:53):
The correct the answer to the Arizona Cardinals have a
cotton candy.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Burrito filled with ice cream and other candies and all that.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Anyway, the Baltimore Evens did their fumble recovery drill where
the rookies go after the ball while getting getting sprayed

Hey, I really enjoyed the uh the Hulk Hogan Donald
Trump call. That was that was good? Whoever did that?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
That's true? But are you saying that wasn't hul Cogan
and Donald Trump? Are you saying that was an in person?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
I'm pretty sure it wasn't. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Well, why would they not call the show, are you?
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Brother? They are probably a little more busy at this
time or not.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
There's not much going on this time of the night.
You know, Trump probably doesn't sleep that much. He's probably
up doing stuff.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
Hey, he's probably watching gorilla videos or something.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I don't know what he's doing. I have no idea. Yeah, anyway, Yeah,
is that it?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You just want to say hello? Yeah, just say okay,
I'm glad you're out there. Thanks for thanks for listening. Jack,
I'm glad you're hanging out with us. So if you
if you have a take, if you ever get a take, Jack,
just call up and give us the take.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Okay, you'll be wrong.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
You have a take, Oh, you have have a take?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
All right, what's your take?
Speaker 7 (21:52):
My take is, y'all can spend half a billion dollars
a year on your stinking baseball team and you're still
not going to win.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Okay, well that's wrong. They A're gonna win. They won
in twenty twenty, they're gonna win again this year.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
Okay, all right, yeah, keep telling yourself that.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
How much did the Texas Rangers spend to win their
World Series last year? Same thing? They bought their World Series.
That's how it works, you buy a champion. Yes, they
went out and signed a bunch of free agents. They
they had a dog crap team, and they went out
and signed Corey Seeger. Who what team was Corey Sieger
on before he went to the Rangers?
Speaker 6 (22:29):
I forget?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Oh, that's right, the Dodgers. That's right, the Dodgers. He
was on the Dodgers, right. All the core of that team,
the core that Ranger championship team was free agents. That's
who they got. And they won and you're jealous Rogers.
You're jealous of the Dodgers when your team did the
same thing.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
The only reason I'm just for the Dodgers because I
think they can buy everything.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Because they can because every night at Dodger Stadium there's
forty five fifty thousand people just about every night. That's
why they got money and they spend it. And why
is that wrong to spend the money on the team.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Why is that wrong?
Speaker 7 (23:10):
I did if y'all have more money, and it's not fair.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It is fair that, as you said, the Dodgers don't
win every year, so it's fair the Rangers won last year.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I gotta go all right, thank you.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
The Texas Rangers last year had the seventh largest payroll
in baseball. They spent two hundred and thirty million dollars,
but they didn't buy the championship. The Dodgers payroll last
year was two hundred and forty two million, so it
was twelve million dollars more than the Rangers, and the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Were not even. They weren't even in the top four
last year in money.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
The Mets, Yankees, Padres, and Phillies spent the most money
in baseball last season, put a sock in your mouth. No,
never let facts get in the way of the story. Though,
never let facts get in the way of the story.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mallor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (24:04):
Interesting story from college football where Florida International University's football
stadium has a new name. It is a new sponsor,
and that sponsor is Grammy Award winning artist pit Bull.
He will pay the school one point two million per
season for the next five years to call their football
stadium pit Bull Stadium.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Do you know what FIU's mascot is, Eddie?
Speaker 6 (24:29):
I think it's a panther.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah, wouldn't that have made more sense?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The is it northern? Is it Southern? Florida's the bulls?
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Why wouldn't he He should have gone there? Wouldn't that
have made more sense?
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (24:43):
Well, I think he's from Miami, so and that's South
Florida Tampa, So I know, but it'll I understand what
you're saying. I understand, which makes more sense when he
wanted to represent Miami apparently, how much did that cost?
Speaker 3 (24:59):
One?
Speaker 6 (25:00):
With two million per year next five years?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
He sat right, he wrote? Did he write the hit
songs he had? Is he the writer of those?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
So he owns the royalties from those?
Speaker 6 (25:12):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
I don't believe so. But he's got enough money to
afford this. Clearly he must have gotten some kind of
writing credit for at least a few of those songs,
you would think, But who knows.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
All right, let's have some fun here, eddie. Fun fun,
fun fun fact. Not so money cash money. Most people
just use credit cards these days of their phone. But
how about this?
Speaker 2 (25:38):

You want to take again, Lorena? Would you like to

most games with one hundred percent field goal percentage.

much or not enough? Too much?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Is that right? That is correct?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
He does lead the way by one hundred and thirty

Speaker 3 (29:45):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Not nearly?
Speaker 1 (29:46):
His answer? Why would you call me Eddie?
Speaker 6 (29:50):
He was just rhyming something.
Speaker 7 (29:53):
It was a rhyme.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah, everybody knows that kiss the Ring right now?
Speaker 1 (30:02):
I don't think he does what that means? Man, you
don't know what. You don't know what kiss the Ring means?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I think I do, but I don't want to say
it on the air.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
God blessing journey. All right, No, that's uh no, I
definitely did not mean that.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Okay, Moving on, Freddie Freeman became the sixtieth Major leaguer

Ben Mahlor Show here on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Yes, what happened to the music?
Speaker 6 (32:58):
There?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
The music?
Speaker 8 (33:00):
Well, there it is there, it is it was here,
it was here.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And just for the record, this is the tenth year
we've been using the listeners submitted open.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Is that correct?
Speaker 10 (33:08):
Yeah, yes, for sure, it's been like five thousand years now.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
I know shows been around for a while.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
And we will take some calls for Lorena as as
soon as my board gets reset here eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox. The question though, the first question
here is from Big Lou. You know who that is
Big Lou.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Hi, Big Lou, great guy. Yes, big fan of the show.
Speaker 8 (33:35):
He makes sure I always got chicken strips in my belly.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
All right.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
He says, how long into dating a person should you
take a trip with them, during the courting period, before
the official relationship or when you are officially locked down
to that person.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
I did this on my sarcastic answers the other day.
I guess a few weeks ago with Brian No and
I said to go as soon as possible. And I
wasn't completely against that idea, to be honest with you.
I think it's a great idea to get to go
an adventure and see how your person is traveling with you.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
But maybe wait a few months, make sure.
Speaker 10 (34:11):
It's worth the splurge if you actually want to do
something like that.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh so you're saying Big Lou spending the money on
that Rather.
Speaker 10 (34:17):
If you want to splurge and you know, show them
that you're here to treat them to the world's finest,
don't do that.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Oh about paying? Each person pays their own way, haven't.
Speaker 10 (34:28):
I've done that and I've paid my way for my
guy too. So it all depends on your relationship.
Speaker 8 (34:33):
Yeah, I didn't know you were.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I didn't know you were a sugar mom.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
I'm a sugar mama.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Bet I had no idea.
Speaker 8 (34:37):
What can I say? I like homeless men.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Okay, so do I? They call my show?
Speaker 8 (34:41):
Yeah, they do all the time, don't they?
Speaker 1 (34:42):
And they show up to our appearances as well. They're
big fans.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Stu says, Lorena is online dating? Our online dating sites
a scam.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
I personally think they are. Yes.
Speaker 10 (34:57):
I do know a couple of people who have gotten
in actual relationships from there, but I feel like most
of the time it's hookup sites. So if you're just
looking for a quick connection and a quick layup, then
you're probably good to go. But if you're actually looking
for a real connection, I always suggest going out and
meeting someone in person, because the actual connection that you
make has to be face to face.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Art Puffin says, if you ever been catfish?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
M oh, okay, of that it happens.
Speaker 8 (35:26):
I've met most of the men I've ever talked.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
To you have, yes, most but not all.
Speaker 8 (35:31):
Most but not all.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I got you Eleen.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Wright, since she says Loraina, why is your name spelled
that way?
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Great question?
Speaker 8 (35:39):
Okay, so funny story.
Speaker 10 (35:41):
My mom is actually the Hispanic in my family, and
she yes, and she wanted to name me Sarah.
Speaker 8 (35:50):
My dad is the whitest man you've ever seen. He's
so white. He's usually red like yep, and all right,
and he uh uh.
Speaker 10 (36:01):
He's the one who wanted to name me Lorena because
he's had four boys before me, and I'm his first daughter,
so he wanted to name me the queen.
Speaker 7 (36:08):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Yeah, And you have four older brothers.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
Four older brothers, yes, to the age of like forty seven.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
Okay, and are you the youngest?
Speaker 6 (36:17):
Yeah, okay, Lorenda.
Speaker 5 (36:18):
Did you know there's a place down the street called
Lorena's spelled the same.
Speaker 10 (36:21):
Way Lorena the Spa. Yes, I have, I know about it.
I haven't been there. I was wondering if they'd give
me a discount.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
They got to give your shirt or something. They got
to get your shirt.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
They gotta give me something nice, big blue sign.
Speaker 8 (36:33):
They have that Dave's Hot Chicken. And is it bathroom Robbins?
What is it Coldstone? It's Coldstone.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
He's also in there naming.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
All of the stores, not just ferg Dog right, since
says if a truck driver got a tattoo of you
Lorena on his rear end. Would you be flattered or disgusted?
Speaker 8 (36:53):
It depends on how good it is really.
Speaker 10 (36:57):
I mean, I might be flattered for a second, but
don't ask me to sign it.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
No autographs, no autograph, no signing autograph.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Let's take a call for the Queen of hearts. Charlie
is in San Diego. Hello Charlie, Welcome brother, how you doing?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Welcome?
Speaker 2 (37:15):
You say hello to Lorena Lorena, I love you?
Speaker 8 (37:20):
Was up, Charlie?
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Hey, I met a I have a crush on a
young lady and I want to know should I invite
her to the neighborhood tavern.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Or the fancy Foo food tequila join downtown. Oh?
Speaker 10 (37:36):
You know, I would start it with the tavern, especially
if you go there often and there's a lot of
people that you know, and see how she vibes with
your group of people. And then if it does go well,
you can take her to the fanci or tequila place
and do like a tequila flight, you know, let the
tequila demons out after you get to know her.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
That's great advice because if you start out at the
very top, she's going to expect that all the time.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
So you don't want to start out like that.
Speaker 10 (38:01):
Let's take Lee for example, right, if he introduced you
to all of his homeless friends first, you'd be like,
I don't know how I feel about you. Okay, Always
go with the lowest first and upgrade later.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
All right, thank you, Charlie, I appreciate that. There goes.
Let's say hello to Nick in Missoula, Montana. Who's next
for the Queen of Hearts?
Speaker 6 (38:25):
Hey, Lorena, I need some serious advice here.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
What's going on? Boo?
Speaker 7 (38:30):
I've been to this girl almost two years now, but
I feel like I'm feeling like either she's going to
break up with me for the last like two months,
or I'm at the point now where I'm just gonna quit.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
What should I do?
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Well?
Speaker 10 (38:46):
I always suggest starting out with a really deep conversation.
What do you really really want? Are you in it
to win it? Or are you okay with letting it
go and dying? That's where you got to start. Do
you love her? And are you willing to fight for it?
Speaker 8 (39:00):
If you are put on.
Speaker 10 (39:00):
Your shield and your sword and you get down on
your knee and you say, I'm ready to fight for this,
if that's really what you want, and show.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
You good luck, good luck, good luck man.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
You'll get it done. You'll get it done.
Hello and welcome.
Speaker 2 (00:01):
It's our number three of the original Recipe podcast Up
All Night, As Tony Soprano said about a bing bout
a boom, So Charles Barkley has unretired. He has walked
back his retirement announcement from TNT. Give me your reaction
to Charles being back in talking hoops and where are
(00:24):
you at on whispers of TNT keeping Charles, Kenny, Shaq
and Ernie together but under a rebranded show. We'll talk
about that in the Atlanta Braves and the Cincinnati Reds
are going to play a game at Bristol Motor Speedway. Yeah,
that's a NASCAR track in twenty twenty five. Are you
excited about that? We'll go there as well. All of
(00:46):
it's coming your way right now here. It is our
number three. Well, you think of television, you think of drama.
When you think of athletic competition, there's drama, but not
that kind of drama.
Speaker 1 (01:03):
But now there is let me explain.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
Welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
We are in the air everywhere tongues old wagon as
we drive the Karma Bus coast to coast, port of
the Border and beyond on the mast and smashingly powerful
microphones of fsre emm nating live from the headquarters as
(01:32):
we are your hot take headquarters. We're broadcasting live from
the tire rac dot com studios. Tire ract dot com
will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping,
free road hazard protection at over ten thousand recommended installers
tyre ract dot com, the way tire buying shuret being
(01:55):
Kathy and Madison, and she's such a big fanh She's
still like ten thousand songs for the show. She wants
to do our number three. She'd like to be the
new number three. But there's a lot of competition for
the new number three and we'll have a team meeting
to decide who is the number three. But our lead
this hour is from the Media Musings Department. My favorite
(02:19):
person on television is going to continue on television. Charles Barkley.
Sir Charles has decided his television future.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Did you see this? Perhaps not?
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Warner Brothers Slash Discovery announced that Charles Barkley will not
will not actually be retiring o MG. He will not
be retiring following the upcoming NBA season, which starts around Halloween,
as he had previously announced. Barkley has quote reaffirmed his
(02:55):
commitment to TNT Sports. Oh it's a rec confirm situation. HM.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
Interesting, all right.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
So Charles Barkley reaffirming his commitment to TNT Sports, saying quote,
I'm going to give my all as we keep them
meeting the viewers entertained for years to come. So that's
our lead here, Media a musings Charles Barkley saying through
a corporate release that he is going to stay at
(03:28):
Turner's Sports. Let us discuss the question. Charles Barkley, now
walking back his retirement, give me your ridoction on. So
I have epiphany Bunny and Darryl Waltrip, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
(03:50):
to light up the left brain, which is the logic center.
See people accuse me of being a right brain person,
right the emotional sense the brain, But no, no, I'm
a left brain person.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
That's where the logic is. So to begin here, the
first thought I have is I'm gonna spell something out
for you. Why a wn You know what that spells?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Yes, yawn, Charles bark this was the easiest story. You
don't have to be a distant relative of Nostradamus and
a friend of Nostrudinus. This was an easy story to call.
Charles Barkley is often illogical. He is an emotional creature.
That is a blessing that can be a curse. It
(04:34):
makes for award winning boob tube. However, it gets you
into the soup because you're so emotional. You've reclemped, right.
He didn't have a cooling off period. This happened during
the NBA Finals. Barkley gave an unfiltered answer in the
raw after a sabbatical couple of months away, and here
(04:58):
we are in early August than about two months or so,
it's more likely than not that what really happened is
the round mound or rebound had an epiphany. After speaking
with his bean counter, the accountant, they looked at the
books and they said, well, listen, Charles, you like the gamble.
That's kind of an expensive hobby, right, So everything kind
(05:21):
of clicked into place.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
You're like, well, it's expensive, and if.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
You're not getting money coming in and you're an investment portfolio,
maybe it's not doing that great er.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Go Charles Barkley. For now, For now, we'll.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
Continue on that ten year, two hundred and ten million
dollar contract as times are really tough.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
They're back in twenty twenty two.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Although I did correspond with some friends who are better
people than me because they work in television, who did
not dismiss the possibility of Barkley's still leaving. Turner that
right now he's saying he's going to stay, but there's
a lot more money out there from from Disney.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
I can't ever see.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Barkley working for the buttoned up Wokesters over at Disney,
but Amazon also, I mean, there's other options now.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Secondly, now that Charles Barkley.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Is sticking around, and there's still people, as I said,
that are doubting that Barkley's actually.
Speaker 1 (06:16):
Going to stick around.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
But we're also hearing some chatter that TNT is considering
a rebrand of what had been known as Inside the NBA,
and they're going to get rid of the NBA part
and just get rid of the part and to call
it Inside Sports. So that'll be the name of the
new show, and that would allow Charles Barkley the vehicle
(06:37):
with his buddies to not only talk about basketball but
everything else. So where are you at on those whispers,
where are you at on those whispers that TNT keeping
the band together? That Charles, Kenny, Shack and Ernie will
be together under a rebranded television show. So we are
(06:58):
loving it, right McDonald's. But we're loving it and don't
stop the good times. We have long been advocates of this.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
How could you not be?
Speaker 2 (07:06):
How I've never met anyone that has a pulse that
someone I want to hang out with that doesn't like
inside the NBA. Right, And that show was never really
about the NBA.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
It wasn't.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
It's it's kind of And here's how I relate like people.
I've made a lot of listeners who go to these
events and stuff, and I've had conversations with listeners and
often when I'm I'm telling you, listeners like this show
even though most of it is supposedly about sports. The
people that tell me why they listen, it's not because
of the sports.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
So who goofed?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
And But definitely, in my opinion as a consumer, right
my experience as a consumer, I don't even care about
NBA regular season basketball. I care about the playoffs. But
I find myself on Thursdays or Tuesdays, depending on what
night they're on inside the NBA, I'm watching, and often
i'm watching, I'm waiting for the game to end, and
(08:03):
then turning it on. That was just a cover charge
to get you in the door the game. But it
was always about the personality, the fun, the gags. A
variety show. That's what they did on a semi weekly basis,
and TNT they can make this a year round show.
And now Barkley's not gonna work you round, He'll likely
(08:23):
only work during basketball season. But keep the vibe going,
keep the vibe going, bring in the energizer, Bunny, so
they can be the program manager, right, keep.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
Going and going and going and going and going to
the show. Can keep going and going and going.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
And you mix and match Barkley and Ernie Johnson until
he retires in Kenny Smith and Shack and you bring
in some random NFL people and MLB people. But in
college as well, because if I'm not mistaken, even with
TNT losing the NBA, turner will still broadcast college basketball,
college football. They'll have baseball, hockey, tennis. I mean, there's
(09:02):
all kinds of crap. I imagine Barkley breaking down tennis. Okay, Now,
final thought, We're gonna sidestep to a sport we just
mentioned Major League Baseball. Now, I'm not gonna sit here
and break down Game two between the fight and fills
for Fats and Philly and my Dodgers. No, no, no,
this is about a couple of other teams that are
(09:22):
both in the National League. We've learned that the Atlanta
Braves and the Cincinnati Reds are going to meet for
one game, one game only. They're gonna get together at
one of the most iconic motorsport venues in this country
or any other country for that matter, and it's gonna
happen next year. My old radio buddy, Evan Drelik, actually
(09:45):
did some radio shows in Boston with Evan from the
Athletic he works there. Now, he tells us that the
Braves and the Reds will face each other at NASCAR's
notorious Bristol Motors speed Way.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
In beautiful Bristol, Tennessee.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
That'll be next year, an official announcement likely coming down
the pike on Friday, thumbs up or thumbs down on
the Braves and the Reds playing a game at Bristol
Motor Speedway in twenty twenty five. So I'm gonna go
thumbs up. Now, I've never been to Bristol Motor Speedway.
(10:23):
I did drive by Darlington when I was in South Carolina, and.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
That blew me away. This massive NASCAR track in the
middle of nowhere.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
From what I've been told, what I've been told, the
situation in Bristol is even crazier in terms of NASCAR
and how big that is. Really just there's not much around.
It's out in the boondogs, right, And so I like
this and it continues the I guess the mantra of baseball.
(10:51):
They want to change it up and as Daryl Waltrip
used to say, bugging and bugger, bugge and buys, let's
go racing, right, Let's go play some another notch in
the bedpost of Major League Baseball. This barn storming initiative.
And in recent years they have had games at the
fields of the Field of Dreams.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Stadium in Iowa. That's where Iowa Sam showed up got.
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Hammered the Rickwood Field in Birmingham, which.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
They just did this past year.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
The timing was not particularly great, or maybe it was
the same. I think it was a day after William
May has passed away and Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
They sided the League World Series. I think they've got
to continue this.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
You do NASCAR, and I said this years ago, they
could do this with basketball. How about you get one
of those giant Navy aircraft carriers and put a baseball
stadium on that. I could put a baseball field on
that play game and a home run goes out in
the Atlantic or the Pacific or wherever.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
How much fun would that be?
Speaker 2 (11:49):
And this continues Major League Baseball. They've expanded the international schedule.
They played games recently in London, Mexico City, Tokyo, Seoul, Uh,
you name it. It is the Ben Maler Show. If
you'd like to talk about any of that, you can
join us. Screamshout, yell, all that stuff.

Yes, that's what we've done.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Here is the Mallard riddle of the day. The Ravens
did their fumble recovery drill where the rookies go after
the ball while getting blank.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
All right, now, Sports with Coleman got this right.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
He obviously cheated because he was at Ravens training camp,
so bad, bad job by him.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
He's the Altuve of this. He pulled an eddy and
got it right.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Art Puffin says, the rookies go after the ball while
getting stiff armed.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
That's the answer.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
Late Night drug tester says the fumble drill while getting
the Starbucks order. Robin Vegas hays, while getting a colonoscopy
is the is the answer?
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Getting their fingernails painted guessed by Ferg dog Hi Fergie
Stevie Meatballs is up with us in Florida and he
says they go after the ball while getting their buns buttered. Okay,
I don't know what you're checking out there, Stevie Meatball's
Donkey Sausage says, while getting an an enema is the answer?
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Who else do we have?
Speaker 2 (16:27):
Page down Mallard prop guy says the Ravens rookies get
relationship advice from the Queen of Hearts Loraina, Yes, Yes,
performing the loose ball drill. Mason listener Mason from Huntington
Beach in the OC says, while getting smeared is the answer.
Speaker 1 (16:51):
But I don't know what that?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Wow?
Speaker 6 (16:52):
All?
Speaker 1 (16:52):
What else do we have?
Speaker 2 (16:53):
A hawk tour it from Fudgie in Boston while getting
serenaded by John Harbaugh from Mark and Santa Monica.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Who else do we have? King Roy says.
Speaker 2 (17:02):
They fight over the mick pickle or mick pinckle? Is
the lady's pink pickle? That's a but that's that's disgusting.
That's AI generated. Mike the Leprechaun from Boston just said,
Larry Bird.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
He screamed that out.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Alf the Alien Opiner went with crabs as his answer,
Milkman Mike, and Colorado says they hit them with the
soap on a rope.
Speaker 1 (17:27):
Wow, all right?
Speaker 2 (17:28):
Waterboarded from Eke in Roseville, Minnesota is the answer. Matt
the Warrior Raider, Tom Brady, rose Fan. He's a cheater,
so we're not gonna read his answer. Andy, do you
have an answer, Eddie please? It's the Mallard riddle of
the day.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
Ah. Yes, they were eating a cotton candy burrito.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Okay, you see you said you didn't like it, but
you brought it up two hours later.
Speaker 1 (17:51):
So you still want it.
Speaker 6 (17:52):
Disgusting?
Speaker 2 (17:53):
The correct the answer to the Arizona Cardinals have a
cotton candy.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
Burrito filled with ice cream and other candies and all that.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
Anyway, the Baltimore Evens did their fumble recovery drill where
the rookies go after the ball while getting getting sprayed
buy hoses spray by hoses. We are told that John
Harbaugh even went out there and take that for data.

Speaker 2 (20:14):
I'm just starting to get the forty nin er fans

Oh, we're in prime position to redo it again. But
come out on top this time, and you know that
you sure about that? Uh?
Speaker 1 (20:35):
Hum, I don't know about that, sir, I don't know
about that.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
Eh.
Speaker 7 (20:41):
Well, I'm called in a few times, but I never
I always have to go before you'll get to me.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
But I got you.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
Well, now you're on the air, you're gonna dazzle us
with some amazing takes from Texas.
Speaker 6 (20:53):
Jack.
Speaker 7 (20:55):
Hey, I really enjoyed the uh the Hulk Hogan Donald
Trump call. That was that was good? Whoever did that?
Speaker 1 (21:01):
That's true? But are you saying that wasn't hul Cogan
and Donald Trump? Are you saying that was an in person?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
I'm pretty sure it wasn't. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (21:09):
Well, why would they not call the show, are you?
Speaker 7 (21:11):
Brother? They are probably a little more busy at this
time or not.
Speaker 2 (21:18):
There's not much going on this time of the night.
You know, Trump probably doesn't sleep that much. He's probably
up doing stuff.
Speaker 7 (21:25):
Hey, he's probably watching gorilla videos or something.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
I don't know what he's doing. I have no idea. Yeah, anyway, Yeah,
is that it?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
You just want to say hello? Yeah, just say okay,
I'm glad you're out there. Thanks for thanks for listening. Jack,
I'm glad you're hanging out with us. So if you
if you have a take, if you ever get a take, Jack,
just call up and give us the take.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Okay, you'll be wrong.
Speaker 7 (21:48):
You have a take, Oh, you have have a take?
Speaker 1 (21:50):
All right, what's your take?
Speaker 7 (21:52):
My take is, y'all can spend half a billion dollars
a year on your stinking baseball team and you're still
not going to win.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Okay, well that's wrong. They A're gonna win. They won
in twenty twenty, they're gonna win again this year.
Speaker 7 (22:07):
Okay, all right, yeah, keep telling yourself that.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
How much did the Texas Rangers spend to win their
World Series last year? Same thing? They bought their World Series.
That's how it works, you buy a champion. Yes, they
went out and signed a bunch of free agents. They
they had a dog crap team, and they went out
and signed Corey Seeger. Who what team was Corey Sieger
on before he went to the Rangers?
Speaker 6 (22:29):
I forget?
Speaker 2 (22:29):
Oh, that's right, the Dodgers. That's right, the Dodgers. He
was on the Dodgers, right. All the core of that team,
the core that Ranger championship team was free agents. That's
who they got. And they won and you're jealous Rogers.
You're jealous of the Dodgers when your team did the
same thing.
Speaker 7 (22:50):
The only reason I'm just for the Dodgers because I
think they can buy everything.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
Because they can because every night at Dodger Stadium there's
forty five fifty thousand people just about every night. That's
why they got money and they spend it. And why
is that wrong to spend the money on the team.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
Why is that wrong?
Speaker 7 (23:10):
I did if y'all have more money, and it's not fair.
Speaker 2 (23:14):
It is fair that, as you said, the Dodgers don't
win every year, so it's fair the Rangers won last year.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
I gotta go all right, thank you.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
The Texas Rangers last year had the seventh largest payroll
in baseball. They spent two hundred and thirty million dollars,
but they didn't buy the championship. The Dodgers payroll last
year was two hundred and forty two million, so it
was twelve million dollars more than the Rangers, and the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (23:42):
Were not even. They weren't even in the top four
last year in money.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
The Mets, Yankees, Padres, and Phillies spent the most money
in baseball last season, put a sock in your mouth. No,
never let facts get in the way of the story. Though,
never let facts get in the way of the story.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mallor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.
Speaker 5 (24:04):
Interesting story from college football where Florida International University's football
stadium has a new name. It is a new sponsor,
and that sponsor is Grammy Award winning artist pit Bull.
He will pay the school one point two million per
season for the next five years to call their football
stadium pit Bull Stadium.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Do you know what FIU's mascot is, Eddie?
Speaker 6 (24:29):
I think it's a panther.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yeah, wouldn't that have made more sense?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
The is it northern? Is it Southern? Florida's the bulls?
Speaker 6 (24:37):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (24:38):
Why wouldn't he He should have gone there? Wouldn't that
have made more sense?
Speaker 3 (24:42):
Uh?
Speaker 5 (24:43):
Well, I think he's from Miami, so and that's South
Florida Tampa, So I know, but it'll I understand what
you're saying. I understand, which makes more sense when he
wanted to represent Miami apparently, how much did that cost?
Speaker 3 (24:59):
One?
Speaker 6 (25:00):
With two million per year next five years?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
He sat right, he wrote? Did he write the hit
songs he had? Is he the writer of those?
Speaker 1 (25:09):
So he owns the royalties from those?
Speaker 6 (25:12):
I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
I don't believe so. But he's got enough money to
afford this. Clearly he must have gotten some kind of
writing credit for at least a few of those songs,
you would think, But who knows.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
All right, let's have some fun here, eddie. Fun fun,
fun fun fact. Not so money cash money. Most people
just use credit cards these days of their phone. But
how about this?
Speaker 2 (25:38):
The average lifespan of a ten dollars bill is five
point three years in circulation. You know what the average
lifespan of one hundred dollars bill is in circulation?
Speaker 1 (25:49):
You want to take again, Lorena? Would you like to
play our game? Lorena?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Oh my gosh, average life span? Now, a ten dollar
bill lasts a little over five years. How long on
average does a in circulation? The life span of one
hundred dollar bill?
Speaker 8 (26:03):
Three months?
Speaker 7 (26:03):
Ben?
Speaker 1 (26:04):
Three months?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
All right?
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Final answer? Okay, uh, the correct answer of the arena.
How about twenty two point nine years? What twenty two
point nine years?
Speaker 7 (26:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Is the people? Why would that be?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
The people that have don't touch it?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
As much.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Yeah, there is go in strippers underwear as much.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
No, No, that's that's Those are dollar bills.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Yeah, those are a dollar bill, dollar dollar bill.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
Occasionally, if it's a really good song, five dollars, but
normally just one.
Speaker 6 (26:36):
Normally just one.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Anyway, we have the game. Here we go. Hit that
button right now, it's game time. Here we go, Here
we go.
Speaker 6 (26:42):

Okay, you take your buddy, Siria Sean. Yeah, what are
the odds? Hello, Siria, Eddie, Hi Eddie, Sean, Eddie. We're
gonna win today, right, Yes, we are.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
You're not playing with Eddie.
Speaker 6 (27:13):
I picked him so I'll share in his victory.
Speaker 7 (27:16):
Way, are you always on my team? It doesn't matter.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
No, he actually hates you.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
All right, all right, here we go, I kid because

lot of thunderstorms and humid year.
Speaker 7 (27:37):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (27:38):
Oh, not normally human in Arizona. Here we go.
Speaker 2 (27:41):
Question number one over the weekend show, oh Tony became
the forty fifth player in Major League Baseball history that
joins the thirty to thirty club?
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 7 (27:55):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Yeah, let's find out as Sean Wright. Yeah, yeah, not enough?
He is the is it thirty?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
What is it now? Thirty forty seventh? He's the forty
seventh player to do that, the first though, since Ricky Henderson.
Is that right? No, that's okay, that's wrong. Appaently, that's wrong.
I'm reading the wrong answer. All right, question, Hopefully this
next one's right. Question number two. DeAndre Jordan has the
most games with one hundred percent field goal percentage.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Over the last ten seasons.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
With one hundred and forty Siria, Sean, is that too
much or not enough? Too much?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Is that right? That is correct?
Speaker 2 (28:42):
He does lead the way by one hundred and thirty
one of those games, so you're one in one.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
You're still in the game, Sean.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
Question number three, there were a total of seventy five
basketball players at the Parisian Olympics with NBA regular season.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 7 (29:04):
Not enough?
Speaker 1 (29:06):
Is he right? That is correct? Not enough? They were
eighty one. Did you know that? Or are you guessing?
Speaker 7 (29:14):
My lady just went with whatever my gut told me.
Speaker 6 (29:17):
Go with the gut.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
Okay, well I did set a new record. Question number four?
Question number four? You get this right? You win the game?
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Are you ready, Sirius Sean the Traveling Man? I am ready?
Speaker 7 (29:32):
Eddie?
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Do I sound like Eddie?
Speaker 6 (29:41):
Not nearly?
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Do I look like Eddie?
Speaker 3 (29:45):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:45):
Not nearly?
Speaker 1 (29:46):
His answer? Why would you call me Eddie?
Speaker 6 (29:50):
He was just rhyming something.
Speaker 7 (29:53):
It was a rhyme.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah, everybody knows that kiss the Ring right now?
Speaker 1 (30:02):
I don't think he does what that means? Man, you
don't know what. You don't know what kiss the Ring means?
Speaker 2 (30:10):
I think I do, but I don't want to say
it on the air.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
God blessing journey. All right, No, that's uh no, I
definitely did not mean that.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Okay, Moving on, Freddie Freeman became the sixtieth Major leaguer
all time to reach five hundred career doubles?
Speaker 1 (30:31):
Meanest, ass? Is that too much or not enough?
Speaker 7 (30:37):
Too much?
Speaker 1 (30:39):
You sure about that?
Speaker 7 (30:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (30:43):

Yes, what happened to the music?
Speaker 6 (32:58):
There?
Speaker 1 (32:59):
The music?
Speaker 8 (33:00):
Well, there it is there, it is it was here,
it was here.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
And just for the record, this is the tenth year
we've been using the listeners submitted open.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Is that correct?
Speaker 10 (33:08):
Yeah, yes, for sure, it's been like five thousand years now.
Speaker 1 (33:13):
I know shows been around for a while.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
And we will take some calls for Lorena as as
soon as my board gets reset here eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox. The question though, the first question
here is from Big Lou. You know who that is
Big Lou.
Speaker 1 (33:31):
Hi, Big Lou, great guy. Yes, big fan of the show.
Speaker 8 (33:35):
He makes sure I always got chicken strips in my belly.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
All right.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
He says, how long into dating a person should you
take a trip with them, during the courting period, before
the official relationship or when you are officially locked down
to that person.
Speaker 10 (33:52):
I did this on my sarcastic answers the other day.
I guess a few weeks ago with Brian No and
I said to go as soon as possible. And I
wasn't completely against that idea, to be honest with you.
I think it's a great idea to get to go
an adventure and see how your person is traveling with you.
Speaker 8 (34:09):
But maybe wait a few months, make sure.
Speaker 10 (34:11):
It's worth the splurge if you actually want to do
something like that.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Oh so you're saying Big Lou spending the money on
that Rather.
Speaker 10 (34:17):
If you want to splurge and you know, show them
that you're here to treat them to the world's finest,
don't do that.
Speaker 1 (34:26):
Oh about paying? Each person pays their own way, haven't.
Speaker 10 (34:28):
I've done that and I've paid my way for my
guy too. So it all depends on your relationship.
Speaker 8 (34:33):
Yeah, I didn't know you were.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
I didn't know you were a sugar mom.
Speaker 8 (34:35):
I'm a sugar mama.
Speaker 1 (34:36):
Bet I had no idea.
Speaker 8 (34:37):
What can I say? I like homeless men.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
Okay, so do I? They call my show?
Speaker 8 (34:41):
Yeah, they do all the time, don't they?
Speaker 1 (34:42):
And they show up to our appearances as well. They're
big fans.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Stu says, Lorena is online dating? Our online dating sites
a scam.
Speaker 8 (34:55):
I personally think they are. Yes.
Speaker 10 (34:57):
I do know a couple of people who have gotten
in actual relationships from there, but I feel like most
of the time it's hookup sites. So if you're just
looking for a quick connection and a quick layup, then
you're probably good to go. But if you're actually looking
for a real connection, I always suggest going out and
meeting someone in person, because the actual connection that you
make has to be face to face.
Speaker 1 (35:17):
Art Puffin says, if you ever been catfish?
Speaker 2 (35:19):
M oh, okay, of that it happens.
Speaker 8 (35:26):
I've met most of the men I've ever talked.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
To you have, yes, most but not all.
Speaker 8 (35:31):
Most but not all.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I got you Eleen.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Wright, since she says Loraina, why is your name spelled
that way?
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Great question?
Speaker 8 (35:39):
Okay, so funny story.
Speaker 10 (35:41):
My mom is actually the Hispanic in my family, and
she yes, and she wanted to name me Sarah.
Speaker 8 (35:50):
My dad is the whitest man you've ever seen. He's
so white. He's usually red like yep, and all right,
and he uh uh.
Speaker 10 (36:01):
He's the one who wanted to name me Lorena because
he's had four boys before me, and I'm his first daughter,
so he wanted to name me the queen.
Speaker 7 (36:08):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (36:09):
Yeah, And you have four older brothers.
Speaker 8 (36:11):
Four older brothers, yes, to the age of like forty seven.
Speaker 1 (36:15):
Okay, and are you the youngest?
Speaker 6 (36:17):
Yeah, okay, Lorenda.
Speaker 5 (36:18):
Did you know there's a place down the street called
Lorena's spelled the same.
Speaker 10 (36:21):
Way Lorena the Spa. Yes, I have, I know about it.
I haven't been there. I was wondering if they'd give
me a discount.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
They got to give your shirt or something. They got
to get your shirt.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
They gotta give me something nice, big blue sign.
Speaker 8 (36:33):
They have that Dave's Hot Chicken. And is it bathroom Robbins?
What is it Coldstone? It's Coldstone.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
He's also in there naming.
Speaker 2 (36:42):
All of the stores, not just ferg Dog right, since
says if a truck driver got a tattoo of you
Lorena on his rear end. Would you be flattered or disgusted?
Speaker 8 (36:53):
It depends on how good it is really.
Speaker 10 (36:57):
I mean, I might be flattered for a second, but
don't ask me to sign it.
Speaker 1 (37:02):
No autographs, no autograph, no signing autograph.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
Let's take a call for the Queen of hearts. Charlie
is in San Diego. Hello Charlie, Welcome brother, how you doing?
Speaker 1 (37:15):
Welcome?
Speaker 2 (37:15):
You say hello to Lorena Lorena, I love you?
Speaker 8 (37:20):
Was up, Charlie?
Speaker 7 (37:22):
Hey, I met a I have a crush on a
young lady and I want to know should I invite
her to the neighborhood tavern.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Or the fancy Foo food tequila join downtown. Oh?
Speaker 10 (37:36):
You know, I would start it with the tavern, especially
if you go there often and there's a lot of
people that you know, and see how she vibes with
your group of people. And then if it does go well,
you can take her to the fanci or tequila place
and do like a tequila flight, you know, let the
tequila demons out after you get to know her.
Speaker 2 (37:53):
That's great advice because if you start out at the
very top, she's going to expect that all the time.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
So you don't want to start out like that.
Speaker 10 (38:01):
Let's take Lee for example, right, if he introduced you
to all of his homeless friends first, you'd be like,
I don't know how I feel about you. Okay, Always
go with the lowest first and upgrade later.
Speaker 2 (38:16):
All right, thank you, Charlie, I appreciate that. There goes.
Let's say hello to Nick in Missoula, Montana. Who's next
for the Queen of Hearts?
Speaker 6 (38:25):
Hey, Lorena, I need some serious advice here.
Speaker 8 (38:29):
What's going on? Boo?
Speaker 7 (38:30):
I've been to this girl almost two years now, but
I feel like I'm feeling like either she's going to
break up with me for the last like two months,
or I'm at the point now where I'm just gonna quit.
Speaker 3 (38:44):
What should I do?
Speaker 1 (38:45):
Well?
Speaker 10 (38:46):
I always suggest starting out with a really deep conversation.
What do you really really want? Are you in it
to win it? Or are you okay with letting it
go and dying? That's where you got to start. Do
you love her? And are you willing to fight for it?
Speaker 8 (39:00):
If you are put on.
Speaker 10 (39:00):
Your shield and your sword and you get down on
your knee and you say, I'm ready to fight for this,
if that's really what you want, and show.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
You good luck, good luck, good luck man.
Speaker 1 (39:11):
You'll get it done. You'll get it done.
