player behind Aaron Rodgers. Also, Joe Burrow says the Bengals

about Tua tungue by Lois contract insurance snaffo hit you.
We'll get to all that will balance the books. Have
a wonderful weekend, and here's our number four.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
Enjoy. You're not the guy that you think you are.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Mallor Show. We are in the air every aware confidence
as we provide the great debate coast stutcoast, border, the
border and beyond on the mast and unmistakably powerful microphones
(01:38):
of FSR amnating live from the craft as we are
crafty as a Fox broadcasting live from the Tirak dot
com studios.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
Tyraq dot com will help.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
You get there in unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free
road hazard protection and over ten thou recommended in stars
tyraq dot com. The way tire buying should be. Owen,
the jack of all trades, enjoys ti Iraq, at least
(02:12):
when I do the ti Iraq commercials.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
He is a fan of the tire Iraq. So our
lead this hour.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
It is not the show Hao Tani show Haltani game.
It is not that Sho Heo Tani with a massive performance.
It's been called the greatest individual performance in modern baseball
as he went out hit well at six. It's three
home runs, a couple of steels, a couple of doubles,
(02:40):
ten runs batted in, ten runs batted in for Otani.
It does also not the New York Jets, absolutely eviscerating
the Patriots.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
The Patriots looked like they didn't want to be there.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
That happens more often than not on Thursday Night, but
usually not this early in the year. You normally have
to wait until middle of the season before teams just
no show. But that was a gutless everent. The Petriots
are bad and they're gonna lose a ton of games.
They're in a neck and neck race with Carolina for
the worst record. But if you play like that, you
won't win another game. Like there's not I mean, I'm
(03:16):
gonna be over dramatic and be a prison of the
ball mate. But there was just a lack of focus,
a lack of effort.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They looked like a poorly coached team, which.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
You do when you play like they played, so that
the Thursday night game was a dud. And you know,
now everyone's going to be licking the toes of Aaron
Rodgers because of that performance.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
But are lead this hour from the election.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Both if you will a literal popularity contest the better
story in the losing locker room where Aaron Roger Now
he did win the unpopular vote prior to the Jets game,
as he was voted the least popular, least popular a
player in the NFL. But did you see who finished second?
(04:01):
Who finished second behind the Jets quarterback? Maybe not, that
would be camsa City tight end Travis Kelcey, who turns out,
is not just a three time Super Bowl champion and
pitch man to the stars, he is officially, at least
according to an Internet poll, the second most annoying player
(04:23):
in the NFL. Congratulations now this according to a recent survey.
In fact, Kelsey actually ranked higher higher than Aaron Rodgers
as the most annoying player with the kiddos, the young
adults eighteen to twenty four that demographic, they voted Rogers
the worst or not Rogers Kelsey the most annoying. So
(04:45):
that kernel of information, that little nugget there has had
some people buzzing. You're talking about a movie star, a
TV icon, a pop diva's boy toy, and he's.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Being lows, I mean, despised.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Say it ain't so bad, man, So let us discuss
what is your reaction to the Chiefs tight end Travis
Kelcey being voted the NFL's second most annoying player, behind
only Aaron Rodgers. So my observations on this, I've got WOJE,
teleprompter and PSA and we will combine all of these
(05:24):
things together, and we are to make a basket of apples.
Because isn't it almost apple picking season if you live
in a place with that like apple picking season?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, So the first thought I have on this number.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
One, yeah, is the the song that will be played
for Travis Kelcey is the Taylor Swift song.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Hater's Gonna hate, Right, That's it. You call Spada space.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Travis Kelcey is a at this point, a firebrand by proxy,
by proxy, There.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Is no other way to say it.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
American pop culture has a borderline personality disorder when it
comes to Travis Kelcey, because it would appear that parts
of society love him and other parts.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Despise him at the same time.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
For example, Madison Avenue, Oh my god, they have puppy
dog eyes for Travis Kelcey.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Yeah, they're smitten.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Hollywood, all right, for Hollywood influenced peddlers. Oh man, can't
get enough. How about Joe six pack? Joe six pack.
They have reached the woge, the woge stage burnout over
exposed commercial fatigue, exhaustion, and this happens all the time, right.
(06:43):
I've been doing this a while, and this has happened
my entire life. I remember back in the day, I'll
give you an example, the Chicago Bulls. When I started
doing sports rad the Chicago Bulls won like every championship
and dynast Michael Jordan was the greatest player and he
was on every commercial, and it got to the point
where people hated Jordan and rooted against Jordan. Now over
(07:05):
time that's gone away, and people like romanticize Michael Jordan,
and I imagine similar things will happen with Lebron James,
although it's a little different. He's more polarizing. Jordan wasn't political.
Lebron's very political. Lebron's got some other problems. He's got
to hope do not see the light of day right now,
if you know what I'm saying. But the point is
with Travis Kelcey, there's an exhaustion thing here and.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
We love to build celebrities up.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
And you know how it goes, right, we evaluate your lives,
you put on a microscope and then we eventually we
open up the trap door and we trap We have
you drop down. There's a hidden trap door, We hit
the button and then you you actually slide down right
into a wood chipper, like right into a wood chip.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
All right, now, Page tue.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Here we go to Sint s Naty, where Joe Burrow
wants you to know, despite the Bengals being tied for
the worst record in the NFL, that he is not
panicking and the Bengals are not panicking. What's good though
they're owing too. What is your viewpoint on Joe Burrow
and this commentary? So my response would be does the
(08:12):
groundshake during an earthquake? Burrow is the master of the
obvious on this one. Right, This is in reality. This
is like a guy I work with and I do
TV with. By the way, the show will be up
later today. I can watch it. But it's like teleprompter Tom.
We call him Tom Looney because he's merely Joe Burrow
(08:34):
reading the prompter. He's reading the teleprompter, He's following the
talking points memo.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
He's putting on a happy face. Put on a happy face.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Now, there's a great piece of wisdom from Japan that
I may or may not have heard from the great
Victor Brick La radio personality Victor Brigg that it goes
something like this, Right, the samurai uses a toothpick, even
if he hasn't eaten a meal, he still uses a toothpick. Now,
it's a it's obviously a proverb from Japan, but it's
(09:07):
it means you live with honor despite even being in poverty.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Like the Bengals right now are a poverty franchise.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
It owing to they are, They've they coughed off an
absolute fur ball. And I would say, and I don't
think I'm wrong on this, after watching all of the
miscues and all of the futson around by the Patriots,
no tackling, offensive line, not blocking Jacoby Brissett, holding the
ball too long, receivers not getting open, all of those things.
(09:34):
To think that the Cincinnati football team coughed up a
furball against the Patriots, and you talk about something that
is going to haunt you, something that is going to
be poltergeist like, that would be it?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
All right? Final point, we.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Go to Miami, Miami, Miami, Miami. Now, if you were
listening last hour, we had our p one everyone's favorite
homeless sports radio caller, We'd man Hippie from Miami who
called up and I love the such a a sugar
Naw that he was homeless for most of this year.
(10:13):
He would call us from Lincoln Road in Miami, and
he finally got an apartment.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Good for him, and he has told me on and
off the air that he hates it and he has
to leave the apartment. You have a roof over your head.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Now, the Dolphins, the way they're going, they might be
homeless soon too, at least a quarterback.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
They're homeless.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That the Dolphins. If you saw this story, I don't
get you've read about it or now. I thought this
was interesting. It involves the future financially of tu a
tongue of a looa, So the Dolphins can purchase up
to that's weasel terminology up to forty nine point three.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Million in insurance.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
If Tua does end up collapsing, this is it for
his career. He doesn't play again, so they can they
can avoid losing all of the guaranteed money. They can
get forty nine point three million back via insurance. However, However,
it's possible from what I was reading, if I read
this right, the coverage will not be available to Don
Shula's old football club for the specific injury that to
(11:17):
a tongue of Iloa has sustained or concussion. So how
does that report of the dolphins having a piece of
paper that says they can recoup almost fifty million dollars
but it likely won't happen because of a contract insurance staff.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oo for to a tongue of by LAWA. How does
that hit you?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
So this hits me like a public service announcement better
known as a PSA and doing the overnight show that's
right in my wheelhouse.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Spoiler alert, spoiler alert if you haven't heard yet. Insurance companies,
and we have friends that work in insurance companies.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Insurance companies happily, happily demand me and you that we
pay premiums on time.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Do not be late paying your premium.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
And they claim the big claim is, and they're incohoots
with the government, the big claim.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Is instant you get peace of mind.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't get my soapbox too much, but it's a
bit of a pet peeve of mine, right, So they claim, hey,
have your insurance if you need it. You don't want
to ever use it, but if you need it, we're
there for you. So they get your money and then
often when the time comes for them to pay off
a claim. They then make you jump through an obstacle course, right,
because the whole point of it is to actually have.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
To pay the money. They don't actually pay the money,
and so there's.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Always some kind of paperwork, you know, snaffu or it's
up the wazoo. Not that I have firsthand experience, not
that this touched a nerve of mine from having to
deal with things involving my late parents.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
May they rest in peace. But if you do get
any money, it's.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Normally likely a low ball amount, right, And there's always
these loopholes, and there's exclusions and exceptions and exemptions and
all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
So I found it amusing.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Even an NFL team, a big bad NFL team, is
in a similar situation.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
All right, is the.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Ben Malard Show. If you would like to be part
of this, there is a line open. You can call up, scream, shout, yell,

Hey, we're Cavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day

Speaker 1 (13:47):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
We never have enough time to get to everything we
want to get.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
To, and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for. Yeah, you blubber me.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Well, it's a Covino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also going to
talk life and relationships. And if Rich and I are
arguing about something or we didn't have enough time, it
will continue on our after show called over Promised.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
Well, if you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make
sure you check out over Promised and also Uncensored, by
the way, So maybe we'll go at it even a
little harder. It's gonna be the best after show podcast
of all time.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
There you go, over promising. Remember you could see it
on YouTube, but definitely join us. Listen to over Promised
with Coavino and Rich on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
The Ben Mallor Show is a team effort. You're invited
to communicate with those of us on this side of
the microphones. You can follow Ben on x at Ben mal.
You can follow our technical producer extraordinary Lorina Peterson, and
she is on x at FSR Tech Queen. Yes, of course.
(15:06):
And your messages are prized, some more than other. Some
Ben will read on the air. Now let's get back
to that babbling buffoon who we love, Big Ben.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
You're using your nickname babbling baboon on me. That's not
quite work there. Now, I want to make my friend
Loraina's dream come true. She didn't like to talk about this.
She's kind of bashful, but there's one thing she really wants,
and I think.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
The boys that listen to the show can provide this.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Lorena has never gotten a letter from one of you
boys in prison. I hear all the time I get
these emails. We've had people call the show over the years.
Some of them you might remember some memorable calls. Guys
have gotten out of jail and the first call they
make is not to their mom or their dad or
some hot girlfriend something, no to me, because they listened.
(16:01):
The boys are listening in jail, and he's very odd.
I'm disappointed in the prison wing of the malor militia.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
You incarcerated fellas there. Bad job about you.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Because every woman that I've worked with over the years
at Fox Sports Radio, going back to Karen Ka, Miranda
Marino and all the others, I've always gotten prison mil
a problem.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
But how long you been here?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Now a year, especially a year, but on this show
about six months.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Okay, so six months? Boys, you know what to do?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
I know, you know, you might have to give up
some cigarettes or something like that. But make sure you
send a nice letter. I used to have this guy
six pack who was wonderful. I used to send now
letters to me. But he's a big fan of the
show and he was like, want to be one of
the characters on the show. By the way, he has
a lifetime deal. It's like a lifetime agreement. To be
in prison, so all those meals are taking care of
(16:54):
for the rest of.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
His life and and all that.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So he's in good shape and bad shape at the
same time. Some audio we were going to play earlier,
and I.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
I don't want to not play it.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
It's good audio, and I want to play it, and
I feel like we should play it. So can we
go back to an earlier hour We talked about Otani
having this ridiculous game for the Dodgers and three home
runs one against the second baseman and ten RBIs and
a couple of the doubles. The nerds in baseball think
it's the greatest day ever, not being a prison of
the moment at all. Just that's the greatest day of
(17:25):
all time in baseball. But after the game, the karma Alarma,
the Marlins manager. I probably don't know who that is.
Why would you? You probably don't watch the Marlins. People
in Miami don't you watch the Martins. So Skip Schumacher
used to be a player for the Cardinals, a little
slap hitter.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Skip Schumacher.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Anyway, he's the manager of the Marlins, and he was
asked like, like, dude, what are you doing after Otani
hit a couple of home runs in a double maybe
you should have pitched around him, given him the old
Barry Bond treatment. But listen to the Marlins manager explain
why he did not walk intentionally Otani and allowed him
to have a book or a date with the Book
(18:06):
of Legends.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Listen.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
I think that's a bad move, baseball wise, karma wise,
baseball godwise. You go after him and see if you
can get him out. And I think, out of respect
for the game, we're going to go after him.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Yeah, And I actually agree with that, And it's not
just as I like the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I agree with it. And the reason I agree with it, okay.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Is because the Marlins are a white hot dumpster fire.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, that's what the Marlins are.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
So like what you're trying to make the playoffs and anything.
He was like, it's competition your team. You've played a
bunch of games. H'm been playing baseball since late March,
and your team is despicable.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Right, You're deplorable, You're You're a joke. There's nobody on
that team, anyone has no name brand value, right.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I mean, the guys are making good money and all that.
During the big leagues, congratulations. They have a nice ballpark
paid for by the taxpayers of Miami, and they provided
a dog food team.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
But like, if you're that kind of team, yeah, you
pitched to Otani? Why would you? Why would you not.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's actually the greatest moment when they do the highlight video.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I don't even know if they still do those.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
They used to do highlight videos that would celebrate a season,
and when they go back and they look at the season,
that's going to be the highlight of the Marlin season
will be Otani hitting a ball off the second baseman
who was pitching and hitting it all the way down
to Cuba. That is going to be the highlight of
(19:38):
the Marlin season. The only team worse than the Marlins
this year the Chicago White Sox.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
That's it now.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
We also got we played at Dave Roberts Rant earlier.
At the end of Dave Roberts Rant, he said something
which every meeting I've ever been at my radio career,
and my friends that I've known in high school that
are in meetings, they have regular jobs, the same thing
happens to them. So it's the end of a meeting.
(20:06):
The boss has one more thing to say to the staff.
Here is Dave Roberts. Listen to Dave Roberts. This is
the end of a speech. The Dodgers have made the playoffs.
Roberts gives a win one for the Gipper speech, and
this is how he ends his little speech.
Speaker 6 (20:20):
Listen, does anyone want to say anything?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
No? Play it again? Play it again?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
I think.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
All right? Who played the other sound? By not playing again? No,
it's so good. Does anyone want to say anything?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (20:40):
So that turns out.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It turns out the Dodgers do not have a Tom
Looney on their team, because what is the rule anyone
that's been around any grown ups right now? Maybe when
you're a kid, you get out of college, you get
a job, you want to impress the boss. So he
starts trying to suck up to the boss and ask questions.
But we used to have pre show at Fox Sports
for in the early days. I'm going way back right,
(21:02):
but we would have meetings before the meeting and the
whole meeting. This is back when we had like you know,
rich Aelrera, Bob Goliic worked here, Uh, you know JT
the Brick guys like that. We would have meetings about
making sure no one asked the question in the meeting,
and that was the meeting, right. Uh, and so it's
just I love playing again, playing again.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's so good.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
I know.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I love that. That is great. I love it. I
love it, I love it. I love it. Oh, it's
so good. All right?
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Is I don't know who's on my board. My board
hasn't been resetting a while, so I got sort of
names out here. Let's try. Uh, Poppy in San Diego. Hello,
Poppy in San Diego.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
What's up man?
Speaker 1 (21:53):
How you doing good?
Speaker 9 (21:55):
Thanks?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Right you guys, You guys want to get a room?
Speaker 9 (22:00):
No, no, no, I'm just gonna pay pro Poppy versus Lorena.
He's here for the greatest night ever.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
The greatest night ever.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yes, that's all right. Listen, Loraino, you're not supposed to
prepare for this.
Speaker 7 (22:19):
I told you I had to get I didn't.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
I du't.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
All right, Well we'll do this now. This is where
Poppy goes against Loraino.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Lorena.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Uh, wonderful football knowledge. Who's the coach of the Cowboys,
Lorena Tom Reddick. Yes, that is absolutely correct. She is
on the pulse of the NFL. So she is picking
against Poppy, who loves to tell everyone how great he
is it picking games.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Is that correct, Poppy?
Speaker 9 (22:48):
That's correct? The best handicapper ever underground. We're gonna go tonight.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Then, okay, well tonight, all right? Interesting, okay, so already
picked the Jets, she's claiming.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Now last week, Poppy, Poppy, you you did get one
pick right and you got two picks wrong, so you
have a losing record, Loreina. She she got one pick
right on a back door cover that was the Bears,
and then the other two lost. All right, So now
this is gonna do this quick. We're not gonna waste
(23:23):
a lot of time because who wants to go first?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Here? Who wants to go first?
Speaker 9 (23:28):
Alright?
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Ladies first? Poplin?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Oh yeah, ladies first. Be polite, Poppy, be polite. She's
a woman, all right, Uh, Lorena, do you want me
to give you the games? Do you know the games?
Speaker 9 (23:38):
You know?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Do you want to be just pick teams here? What
do you want?
Speaker 7 (23:41):
Yeah? I want to know the games?
Speaker 6 (23:42):
Give me the games?
Speaker 1 (23:43):

Raiders in Vegas, Dolphins, Seahawks and Seattle Lions, Cardinals, Ate, Evens, Cowboys,

the way. Any Mallard militia people were there, let me know.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
Yes, you can just pick pick three.
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Okay, I got them, I got them, I got them.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Okay, all right, what are your picks?
Speaker 7 (24:17):
Steelers?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You're taking the Steelers. Steelers are a one point favorite.
So you got the Steelers minus one. You just have
to pretty much win the game and you're in good shape.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
All right. Who else?
Speaker 7 (24:27):
I'm taking the Colts.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
Colts.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Oh interesting, you're going against the Bears. Colts minus two
at home?
Speaker 6 (24:34):
They get serious.
Speaker 7 (24:35):
The Bears were trash last week.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Okay, I have not seen the Colts apparently. All right,
one more here, Lorena.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
One, I got ben the Saints.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Oh no, Lorena, I might have picked the Saints on
the TV show. You've just given them the kiss of
death unless you haven't. Saints they're getting Actually they opened
it too, and there's a five point line move on
that game, a massive line move. They're actually now two
and a half point favorites in that game, so a
lot of a lot of money. All right, Poppy, quickly,
just give me one line on each game.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
If you go too long, I'll hang up on you,
So please do that.
Speaker 9 (25:12):
Wow, I'm actually prepared for this Ben manor opponent Lorena.
On the first game, we're going to go the Kansas
City Chiefs, and.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
All right, Chiefs. Our current line is minus three and
a half. I got it at minus four and a half,
but you have it minus three and a half in Atlanta.
Speaker 9 (25:30):
All right, Okay, so this game I'm liking Travis Kelcey's
on the slum guy. Start them on your fantasy football
Patrick mahon thing, get a fantasy sleeper Kareem Hunt. That's so,
what's the Chiefs?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
All right? Next pick on.
Speaker 9 (25:43):
The next one is a Monday and Monday night football games.
Give me the Buffalo Bills against the Jacks.
Speaker 8 (25:49):
Man.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
When I hear you pick a game and I might
have picked, I get a little concer. Bills are a
five point favorite. Bill's a five point favorite against Jacksonville
at home, and poppy last one.
Speaker 9 (26:02):
Poppy last one, Okay, okay, on this okay, on this one,
I like Bill's market. Let's go with Josh, allam, Bill,
next pick Poppy, and that's picked on our Commanders against
the Bengals.
Speaker 1 (26:14):
And who are you taking?
Speaker 9 (26:15):
I'm taking on this one. Hey, Joe Burrow has a
hair like justin Timberlake. Baby bye bye. She's gonna loose
against the Commanders. I like the Commanders, Dog Daniels. What
is it plus seven seven and a half?
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, it's plus plus seven and a half plus seven
and a half.
Speaker 9 (26:36):
You need plus seven and a half. Let's go with Josh.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
All right, all right, So again for those keeping score
at home, which is No. One, uh, Steelers, Colts and
Saints for the Raina and Poppy says Chiefs. Bill's going
with a couple of favorites there, and the Commanders and
Underdog Lorado going all favorites.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
They're both currently one and four on their pitch.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
I feel really good about this weekend.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
So if you just bet against them, you're making money.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
You're making a lot of money. So yeah, you feel
good about this weekend?
Speaker 7 (27:05):
Lorena, I do I do bet?
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Why you're going to the beach or the movies? All right?
Speaker 2 (27:15):
We got the coop scoop on entertainment. But right now,
almost out of the misery, almost out of the misery.
It's I can all I can see the light at
the end of the tunnel. It might be an oncoming train,
but let's get you caught up on everything going on
in the overnight and the Eddie Garcia in personator right
right over there.
Speaker 6 (27:36):
Yeah, and that train will be chugging into Sunday, going
into Monday's show.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Ben So might be getting the Sunday night flu. I
don't know. I might begetting.
Speaker 6 (27:48):
Getting the Sunday scaries, as.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
They say, I yet, Yeah, I might not be able
to make it. I don't I might eat too many
pretzels at the Rams game.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (27:58):
All right, I'll do the show for you.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
There's somebody on Monday that I've never heard of before.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
Oh is that right?
Speaker 7 (28:05):
Yeah, filling in for Eddie?
Speaker 1 (28:06):
Oh great, all right, new person? Yeah? Nice, all right, exciting. Nice.
Why didn't you do Monday?
Speaker 6 (28:12):
They didn't want you to do Monday because I got
UCLA stuff on Tuesday, so got to be able to
go to football practice Bend, you know, after the LSU game,
and see how that all works. Out, Well, what times
football pre football practice is in the morning, So got to.
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Get a little bit of sleep. What good news?
Speaker 2 (28:28):
UCLA is going to lose by so many points they're
going to cancel practice now? Is that what they're going
They're going to say, Hey, we don't need to practice
because when we practice, we lose by a gazillion points.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Do you know what the points bread is? Mister Ucla there,
do you know what the pointspread is?
Speaker 6 (28:43):
It's not looking good. It's it's not it's a couple
of touchdowns.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Isn't it?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
It is three touchdowns and a half point twenty one
and a half points.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
LSU is favorite in Bopaul Rouge Louisiana.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
I think we're going to find ourselves in something a
little closer a tight game than would be expected.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
At least when they kick off it'll be closer.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
But after that, I don't I don't know. And let's
see where are the people betting? Let me look here,
uh and see, uh, well, the public is kind of split.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
The sharps are all on LSU. Almost ninety of the
sharps are on LSU. So that's the smart people.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
Yeah, you're actually it's actually a little closer with the public. So, yeah,
you're your chalky mick chalk chalk. I get that, Ben,
I take it. I take you well.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
In the NFL, I.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Usually take dogs, but in college I normally bet favorites
because they have these things called boosters who like to
write big checks when the coach covers the spread.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
So uh, yeah, it's a dirty little secret. Steve Spurrier
knew about that back and then you don't all coach.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
I don't think the boosters are that significant with the
nil and what they are now, whether there is a
leveling of the time one.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Of my sources.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
I don't have time to get into it now because
otherwise we will not have I'll tell you later.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
Yeah, yeah, and yeah, we'll get on a we'll get
on a zoom in the morning or something or maybe not.
Speaker 1 (30:04):
I'm good.

this is actually.
Speaker 2 (30:51):

got a different spin on it.
Speaker 7 (30:57):
It is an animated Transformers movie. So going back to uh,
the going back to watching.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
The cartoon, the Transformers cartoon that was a big deal
when it came out.
Speaker 7 (31:08):
Yeah, so we've disguised, we've gone full circle.
Speaker 9 (31:11):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (31:11):
This is called Transformers one, and it is the untold
origin story of otis story.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Missing from the Transformer franchise is how the parts all
came together.
Speaker 7 (31:29):
That's the origin story of Optimist Prime and Megatron.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Oh thank God, who are better known.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
As sworn enemies, but once we're friends, bonded like Brothers.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Yeah, well Megatron became evil because he played for the
Detroit Lions.
Speaker 5 (31:43):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (31:44):
This is a star studded cast as far as the
voices and this you got Chris Hemsworth, Scarlet Johansson, Oh
I've heard of him, Yes, Steve Buscemi, Laurence fishburn Ham
him to wow.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:57):
So uh and that's that's getting good reviews. So that
is in theaters this weekend. Moving over to television now,
I want to bring something up that is not did
not premiere anytime in the you know, very recently, but
it premiered back in June. And I just I just discovered.
I was searching through Netflix looking for something to watch
the other night, and it was a it's a documentary,
(32:18):
I guess. I guess you could call it a true
crime documentary. But it's called How to Rob a Bank?
Speaker 9 (32:24):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
This is Is this a starring case?
Speaker 1 (32:27):
It was that Kansas City fan, remember.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
The guy, Yeah, Chiefs chiefs Aholic?
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Yeah? Is it him?
Speaker 7 (32:31):
No, it is. It takes you to nineteen ninety Seattle,
and it's the story about one of the worlds, if
not the world's best bank robber.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
It is did he get caught?
Speaker 7 (32:45):
I to have not finished it. I'm like halfway through.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
So if he got caught, he's not the world's best
bank robber.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
But okay, is it you enjoying it so far?
Speaker 7 (32:53):
Yes, it's it's awesome. He pulled off a string of
an unprecedented string of bank robberies after watching Point Break and.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Oh I remember that movie, yeah, the Surfing Bankrupt.
Speaker 7 (33:04):
Yes, yeah, and he basically kind of did the same
his first ever bank robbery where he wore a Ronald
Reagan mask. And yeah, and this guy was an interesting character.
I highly recommend this is on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
It's a my who is he your favorite bank robber?
My favorite bank robber is the Geezer Banded. I don't
think they ever caught him. I remember that one. Yeah,
that guy, and he dressed like an old man. He
had like Hollywood makeup on. They figured out at some
point he wasn't an old man when they had video
of him running like he was twenty years old from
a bank in San Diego.
Speaker 7 (33:38):
I think it was well this guy. This guy also
used like prosthetics they call they called him Hollywood. That
was the name of this.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Interesting Yeah, the guy, the Geezer Banded.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
I don't think he's robbed a bank in a while,
but he he I don't think he ever got caught.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I think he just got away with his wild that
you you could go that long and not get I know.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
Right.
Speaker 7 (33:57):
My my favorite bank robber though, is Angry Bill.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Yes right, we have a bank robber who calls the
show Angry Bill went to jail for robbing a bank.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
That's true.
Speaker 7 (34:09):
Yes, you're right, I looked it up. He has not
been caught, but his last known robbery occurred in twenty eleven.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Oh he's going a decade. Yeah, you think he must.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Every day he must be like, oh man, I don't
any knock on the door, you know, like it might
be on to me.
Speaker 7 (34:25):
Who knows, I mean he might. He might have just
you know, got enough money and now he's just living
his life.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
He's in the Bahamas, Yeah, living down in Mexico, living
the life.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yes, right, but.
Speaker 7 (34:35):
Anyway, that's that's one that I want to point out
on Netflix. Another one, real, what.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
Happened to the music?
Speaker 7 (34:43):
You know what's going to be? Some music already gave
you two extra minutes?
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Coop?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (34:47):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Raina's way of saying to shut up.
Speaker 7 (34:49):
Well, that's too bad. I'm going to talk without the music.
Speaker 9 (34:51):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (34:53):
All right, So now you remember I think it was
a couple of years ago now we had it was
like it was called Monts Sure, the Jeffrey Dahmer story.
Remember that was Emmy nominated. Now, yeah, so this is
this is that was produced by Ryan Murphy. So we
have a continuation. So it's it's a new story, but
it's under the same kind of banner monsters. And this
(35:13):
is the Lyle and Eric Menendez story.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
You know where Dahmer went to college. By the way,
I do not Ohio State.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
Oh okay, the the Ohio State.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (35:22):
Yeah, so so obviously the focus here is on the
Menendez brothers and their parents in this are played by
Javier Bardem and Chloe Savigni, and then there's others, some
some of the stars.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Nathan remember that story about the Minetta's brothers. They were
on the basketball card.
Speaker 7 (35:37):
Yes, Jackson, Yes, that court side of the Knicks game.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
And I was at the Sports Marine. I think though
in LA they were playing the Clippers.
Speaker 7 (35:45):
I think, oh, yeah, yes, I think you're right. And
then last but not least, I want to mention, uh,
the Penguin the basically you know, the Batman Villain. It
is a new mini series limited series on HBO. It
is available right now on the Max app and it
of course stars Colin Farrell as Oswald cobble Pot.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Very important, yes, very very important, real quick.
Speaker 7 (36:09):
And I just want Brian Finley, I know, I know,
I want to bring it up just because I think
you would enjoy it. There's there's a documentary coming up,
and it's a six part documentary. I think it's too
many parts, probably, but it's too long. It's mister McMahon,
oh edmon, No, Vince McMahon.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I love all McMahons. I love them all. I'm a
fan of all McMahon's.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
That's on Netflix on Wednesday. Docu series Vince McMahon.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Yeah, well so it's gonna get into all the creepy
stuff you yeah, okay, all right, Well, thank you for
that Kooper loop, and we now have no time for
sports yet, pretty but that's fine because there is some
interesting news out involving a star NFL broadcaster who has

in the NFL. Yeah, Collinsworth admitted that he he claimed
(39:01):
it dependent on what matchups NBC has said. For example,
he said he was pulling for the Atlanta Falcons on
Monday night because the Falcons play the Chiefs on Sunday,
so it makes the game a little more sexy, you say,
which I.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Don't know how you can have a problem with that.
He's looking out for his own job.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
He wants the ratings to be up and if the
ratings are up, then he's good now. Also, there were
some rumors this week that Collinsworth could be out after

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Enjoy. You're not the guy that you think you are.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Mallor Show. We are in the air every aware confidence
as we provide the great debate coast stutcoast, border, the
border and beyond on the mast and unmistakably powerful microphones
(01:38):
of FSR amnating live from the craft as we are
crafty as a Fox broadcasting live from the Tirak dot

the jack of all trades, enjoys ti Iraq, at least
(02:12):
when I do the ti Iraq commercials.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
He is a fan of the tire Iraq. So our
lead this hour.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
It is not the show Hao Tani show Haltani game.
It is not that Sho Heo Tani with a massive performance.
It's been called the greatest individual performance in modern baseball
as he went out hit well at six. It's three
home runs, a couple of steels, a couple of doubles,
(02:40):
ten runs batted in, ten runs batted in for Otani.
It does also not the New York Jets, absolutely eviscerating
the Patriots.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
The Patriots looked like they didn't want to be there.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
That happens more often than not on Thursday Night, but
usually not this early in the year. You normally have
to wait until middle of the season before teams just
no show. But that was a gutless everent. The Petriots
are bad and they're gonna lose a ton of games.
They're in a neck and neck race with Carolina for
the worst record. But if you play like that, you
won't win another game. Like there's not I mean, I'm
(03:16):
gonna be over dramatic and be a prison of the
ball mate. But there was just a lack of focus,
a lack of effort.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
They looked like a poorly coached team, which.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
You do when you play like they played, so that
the Thursday night game was a dud. And you know,
now everyone's going to be licking the toes of Aaron
Rodgers because of that performance.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
But are lead this hour from the election.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
Both if you will a literal popularity contest the better
story in the losing locker room where Aaron Roger Now
he did win the unpopular vote prior to the Jets game,
as he was voted the least popular, least popular a
player in the NFL. But did you see who finished second?
(04:01):
Who finished second behind the Jets quarterback? Maybe not, that
would be camsa City tight end Travis Kelcey, who turns out,
is not just a three time Super Bowl champion and
pitch man to the stars, he is officially, at least
according to an Internet poll, the second most annoying player
(04:23):
in the NFL. Congratulations now this according to a recent survey.
In fact, Kelsey actually ranked higher higher than Aaron Rodgers
as the most annoying player with the kiddos, the young
adults eighteen to twenty four that demographic, they voted Rogers
the worst or not Rogers Kelsey the most annoying. So
(04:45):
that kernel of information, that little nugget there has had
some people buzzing. You're talking about a movie star, a
TV icon, a pop diva's boy toy, and he's.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Being lows, I mean, despised.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
Say it ain't so bad, man, So let us discuss
what is your reaction to the Chiefs tight end Travis
Kelcey being voted the NFL's second most annoying player, behind
only Aaron Rodgers. So my observations on this, I've got WOJE,
teleprompter and PSA and we will combine all of these
(05:24):
things together, and we are to make a basket of apples.
Because isn't it almost apple picking season if you live
in a place with that like apple picking season?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Yeah, So the first thought I have on this number.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
One, yeah, is the the song that will be played
for Travis Kelcey is the Taylor Swift song.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
Hater's Gonna hate, Right, That's it. You call Spada space.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Travis Kelcey is a at this point, a firebrand by proxy,
by proxy, There.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Is no other way to say it.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
American pop culture has a borderline personality disorder when it
comes to Travis Kelcey, because it would appear that parts
of society love him and other parts.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
Despise him at the same time.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
For example, Madison Avenue, Oh my god, they have puppy
dog eyes for Travis Kelcey.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Yeah, they're smitten.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Hollywood, all right, for Hollywood influenced peddlers. Oh man, can't
get enough. How about Joe six pack? Joe six pack.
They have reached the woge, the woge stage burnout over
exposed commercial fatigue, exhaustion, and this happens all the time, right.
(06:43):
I've been doing this a while, and this has happened
my entire life. I remember back in the day, I'll
give you an example, the Chicago Bulls. When I started
doing sports rad the Chicago Bulls won like every championship
and dynast Michael Jordan was the greatest player and he
was on every commercial, and it got to the point
where people hated Jordan and rooted against Jordan. Now over
(07:05):
time that's gone away, and people like romanticize Michael Jordan,
and I imagine similar things will happen with Lebron James,
although it's a little different. He's more polarizing. Jordan wasn't political.
Lebron's very political. Lebron's got some other problems. He's got
to hope do not see the light of day right now,
if you know what I'm saying. But the point is
with Travis Kelcey, there's an exhaustion thing here and.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
We love to build celebrities up.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
And you know how it goes, right, we evaluate your lives,
you put on a microscope and then we eventually we
open up the trap door and we trap We have
you drop down. There's a hidden trap door, We hit
the button and then you you actually slide down right
into a wood chipper, like right into a wood chip.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
All right, now, Page tue.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Here we go to Sint s Naty, where Joe Burrow
wants you to know, despite the Bengals being tied for
the worst record in the NFL, that he is not
panicking and the Bengals are not panicking. What's good though
they're owing too. What is your viewpoint on Joe Burrow
and this commentary? So my response would be does the
(08:12):
groundshake during an earthquake? Burrow is the master of the
obvious on this one. Right, This is in reality. This
is like a guy I work with and I do
TV with. By the way, the show will be up
later today. I can watch it. But it's like teleprompter Tom.
We call him Tom Looney because he's merely Joe Burrow
(08:34):
reading the prompter. He's reading the teleprompter, He's following the
talking points memo.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
He's putting on a happy face. Put on a happy face.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Now, there's a great piece of wisdom from Japan that
I may or may not have heard from the great
Victor Brick La radio personality Victor Brigg that it goes
something like this, Right, the samurai uses a toothpick, even
if he hasn't eaten a meal, he still uses a toothpick. Now,
it's a it's obviously a proverb from Japan, but it's
(09:07):
it means you live with honor despite even being in poverty.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
Like the Bengals right now are a poverty franchise.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
It owing to they are, They've they coughed off an
absolute fur ball. And I would say, and I don't
think I'm wrong on this, after watching all of the
miscues and all of the futson around by the Patriots,
no tackling, offensive line, not blocking Jacoby Brissett, holding the
ball too long, receivers not getting open, all of those things.
(09:34):
To think that the Cincinnati football team coughed up a
furball against the Patriots, and you talk about something that
is going to haunt you, something that is going to
be poltergeist like, that would be it?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
All right? Final point, we.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Go to Miami, Miami, Miami, Miami. Now, if you were
listening last hour, we had our p one everyone's favorite
homeless sports radio caller, We'd man Hippie from Miami who
called up and I love the such a a sugar
Naw that he was homeless for most of this year.
(10:13):
He would call us from Lincoln Road in Miami, and
he finally got an apartment.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Good for him, and he has told me on and
off the air that he hates it and he has
to leave the apartment. You have a roof over your head.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Now, the Dolphins, the way they're going, they might be
homeless soon too, at least a quarterback.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
They're homeless.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
That the Dolphins. If you saw this story, I don't
get you've read about it or now. I thought this
was interesting. It involves the future financially of tu a
tongue of a looa, So the Dolphins can purchase up
to that's weasel terminology up to forty nine point three.
Speaker 1 (10:51):
Million in insurance.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
If Tua does end up collapsing, this is it for
his career. He doesn't play again, so they can they
can avoid losing all of the guaranteed money. They can
get forty nine point three million back via insurance. However, However,
it's possible from what I was reading, if I read
this right, the coverage will not be available to Don
Shula's old football club for the specific injury that to
(11:17):
a tongue of Iloa has sustained or concussion. So how
does that report of the dolphins having a piece of
paper that says they can recoup almost fifty million dollars
but it likely won't happen because of a contract insurance staff.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Oo for to a tongue of by LAWA. How does
that hit you?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
So this hits me like a public service announcement better
known as a PSA and doing the overnight show that's
right in my wheelhouse.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Spoiler alert, spoiler alert if you haven't heard yet. Insurance companies,
and we have friends that work in insurance companies.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Insurance companies happily, happily demand me and you that we
pay premiums on time.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
Do not be late paying your premium.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
And they claim the big claim is, and they're incohoots
with the government, the big claim.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Is instant you get peace of mind.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I don't get my soapbox too much, but it's a
bit of a pet peeve of mine, right, So they claim, hey,
have your insurance if you need it. You don't want
to ever use it, but if you need it, we're
there for you. So they get your money and then
often when the time comes for them to pay off
a claim. They then make you jump through an obstacle course, right,
because the whole point of it is to actually have.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
To pay the money. They don't actually pay the money,
and so there's.
Speaker 2 (12:33):
Always some kind of paperwork, you know, snaffu or it's
up the wazoo. Not that I have firsthand experience, not
that this touched a nerve of mine from having to
deal with things involving my late parents.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
May they rest in peace. But if you do get
any money, it's.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Normally likely a low ball amount, right, And there's always
these loopholes, and there's exclusions and exceptions and exemptions and
all that stuff.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
So I found it amusing.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Even an NFL team, a big bad NFL team, is
in a similar situation.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
All right, is the.
Speaker 2 (13:08):
Ben Malard Show. If you would like to be part
of this, there is a line open. You can call up, scream, shout, yell,
all at crap and be part of the show. Also

Speaker 1 (13:26):
Your phone calls will get to all that and we

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Mallor
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Hey, we're Cavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio every day
five to seven pm Eastern.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
But here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
We never have enough time to get to everything we
want to get.
Speaker 5 (13:50):
To, and that's why we have a brand new podcast
called over Promised. You see, we're having so much fun
in our two hour show. We never get to everything, honestly,
because this guy is over promising things we never have
time for. Yeah, you blubber me.
Speaker 4 (14:05):
Well, you know what it's called over promise. You should
be good at it because you've been over promising women
for years.
Speaker 5 (14:09):
Well, it's a Covino and Rich after show, and we
want you to be a part of it. We're gonna
be talking sports, of course, but we're also going to
talk life and relationships. And if Rich and I are
arguing about something or we didn't have enough time, it
will continue on our after show called over Promised.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
Well, if you don't get enough Covino and Rich, make
sure you check out over Promised and also Uncensored, by
the way, So maybe we'll go at it even a
little harder. It's gonna be the best after show podcast
of all time.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
There you go, over promising. Remember you could see it
on YouTube, but definitely join us. Listen to over Promised
with Coavino and Rich on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 6 (14:45):
The Ben Mallor Show is a team effort. You're invited
to communicate with those of us on this side of
the microphones. You can follow Ben on x at Ben mal.
You can follow our technical producer extraordinary Lorina Peterson, and
she is on x at FSR Tech Queen. Yes, of course.
(15:06):
And your messages are prized, some more than other. Some
Ben will read on the air. Now let's get back
to that babbling buffoon who we love, Big Ben.
Speaker 2 (15:18):
You're using your nickname babbling baboon on me. That's not
quite work there. Now, I want to make my friend
Loraina's dream come true. She didn't like to talk about this.
She's kind of bashful, but there's one thing she really wants,
and I think.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
The boys that listen to the show can provide this.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Lorena has never gotten a letter from one of you
boys in prison. I hear all the time I get
these emails. We've had people call the show over the years.
Some of them you might remember some memorable calls. Guys
have gotten out of jail and the first call they
make is not to their mom or their dad or
some hot girlfriend something, no to me, because they listened.
(16:01):
The boys are listening in jail, and he's very odd.
I'm disappointed in the prison wing of the malor militia.
Speaker 1 (16:09):
You incarcerated fellas there. Bad job about you.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Because every woman that I've worked with over the years
at Fox Sports Radio, going back to Karen Ka, Miranda
Marino and all the others, I've always gotten prison mil
a problem.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
But how long you been here?
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Now a year, especially a year, but on this show
about six months.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Okay, so six months? Boys, you know what to do?
Speaker 2 (16:32):
I know, you know, you might have to give up
some cigarettes or something like that. But make sure you
send a nice letter. I used to have this guy
six pack who was wonderful. I used to send now
letters to me. But he's a big fan of the
show and he was like, want to be one of
the characters on the show. By the way, he has
a lifetime deal. It's like a lifetime agreement. To be
in prison, so all those meals are taking care of
(16:54):
for the rest of.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
His life and and all that.
Speaker 2 (16:56):
So he's in good shape and bad shape at the
same time. Some audio we were going to play earlier,
and I.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
I don't want to not play it.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
It's good audio, and I want to play it, and
I feel like we should play it. So can we
go back to an earlier hour We talked about Otani
having this ridiculous game for the Dodgers and three home
runs one against the second baseman and ten RBIs and
a couple of the doubles. The nerds in baseball think
it's the greatest day ever, not being a prison of
the moment at all. Just that's the greatest day of
(17:25):
all time in baseball. But after the game, the karma Alarma,
the Marlins manager. I probably don't know who that is.
Why would you? You probably don't watch the Marlins. People
in Miami don't you watch the Martins. So Skip Schumacher
used to be a player for the Cardinals, a little
slap hitter.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
Skip Schumacher.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
Anyway, he's the manager of the Marlins, and he was
asked like, like, dude, what are you doing after Otani
hit a couple of home runs in a double maybe
you should have pitched around him, given him the old
Barry Bond treatment. But listen to the Marlins manager explain
why he did not walk intentionally Otani and allowed him
to have a book or a date with the Book
(18:06):
of Legends.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Listen.
Speaker 8 (18:07):
I think that's a bad move, baseball wise, karma wise,
baseball godwise. You go after him and see if you
can get him out. And I think, out of respect
for the game, we're going to go after him.
Speaker 2 (18:20):
Yeah, And I actually agree with that, And it's not
just as I like the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
I agree with it. And the reason I agree with it, okay.
Speaker 2 (18:28):
Is because the Marlins are a white hot dumpster fire.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
Okay, that's what the Marlins are.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
So like what you're trying to make the playoffs and anything.
He was like, it's competition your team. You've played a
bunch of games. H'm been playing baseball since late March,
and your team is despicable.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Right, You're deplorable, You're You're a joke. There's nobody on
that team, anyone has no name brand value, right.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
I mean, the guys are making good money and all that.
During the big leagues, congratulations. They have a nice ballpark
paid for by the taxpayers of Miami, and they provided
a dog food team.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
But like, if you're that kind of team, yeah, you
pitched to Otani? Why would you? Why would you not.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
That's actually the greatest moment when they do the highlight video.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
I don't even know if they still do those.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
They used to do highlight videos that would celebrate a season,
and when they go back and they look at the season,
that's going to be the highlight of the Marlin season
will be Otani hitting a ball off the second baseman
who was pitching and hitting it all the way down
to Cuba. That is going to be the highlight of
(19:38):
the Marlin season. The only team worse than the Marlins
this year the Chicago White Sox.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
That's it now.
Speaker 2 (19:45):
We also got we played at Dave Roberts Rant earlier.
At the end of Dave Roberts Rant, he said something
which every meeting I've ever been at my radio career,
and my friends that I've known in high school that
are in meetings, they have regular jobs, the same thing
happens to them. So it's the end of a meeting.
(20:06):
The boss has one more thing to say to the staff.
Here is Dave Roberts. Listen to Dave Roberts. This is
the end of a speech. The Dodgers have made the playoffs.
Roberts gives a win one for the Gipper speech, and
this is how he ends his little speech.
Speaker 6 (20:20):
Listen, does anyone want to say anything?
Speaker 1 (20:23):
No? Play it again? Play it again?
Speaker 7 (20:28):
I think.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
All right? Who played the other sound? By not playing again? No,
it's so good. Does anyone want to say anything?
Speaker 4 (20:40):
No?
Speaker 1 (20:40):
So that turns out.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
It turns out the Dodgers do not have a Tom
Looney on their team, because what is the rule anyone
that's been around any grown ups right now? Maybe when
you're a kid, you get out of college, you get
a job, you want to impress the boss. So he
starts trying to suck up to the boss and ask questions.
But we used to have pre show at Fox Sports
for in the early days. I'm going way back right,
(21:02):
but we would have meetings before the meeting and the
whole meeting. This is back when we had like you know,
rich Aelrera, Bob Goliic worked here, Uh, you know JT
the Brick guys like that. We would have meetings about
making sure no one asked the question in the meeting,
and that was the meeting, right. Uh, and so it's
just I love playing again, playing again.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
That's so good.
Speaker 8 (21:26):
I know.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I love that. That is great. I love it. I
love it, I love it. I love it. Oh, it's
so good. All right?
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Is I don't know who's on my board. My board
hasn't been resetting a while, so I got sort of
names out here. Let's try. Uh, Poppy in San Diego. Hello,
Poppy in San Diego.
Speaker 6 (21:52):
What's up man?
Speaker 1 (21:53):
How you doing good?
Speaker 9 (21:55):
Thanks?
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Right you guys, You guys want to get a room?
Speaker 9 (22:00):
No, no, no, I'm just gonna pay pro Poppy versus Lorena.
He's here for the greatest night ever.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
The greatest night ever.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
This is it?
Speaker 1 (22:11):
Yes, that's all right. Listen, Loraino, you're not supposed to
prepare for this.
Speaker 7 (22:19):
I told you I had to get I didn't.
Speaker 3 (22:22):
I du't.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
All right, Well we'll do this now. This is where
Poppy goes against Loraino.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
Lorena.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Uh, wonderful football knowledge. Who's the coach of the Cowboys,
Lorena Tom Reddick. Yes, that is absolutely correct. She is
on the pulse of the NFL. So she is picking
against Poppy, who loves to tell everyone how great he
is it picking games.
Speaker 1 (22:47):
Is that correct, Poppy?
Speaker 9 (22:48):
That's correct? The best handicapper ever underground. We're gonna go tonight.
Speaker 1 (22:54):
Then, okay, well tonight, all right? Interesting, okay, so already
picked the Jets, she's claiming.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
Now last week, Poppy, Poppy, you you did get one
pick right and you got two picks wrong, so you
have a losing record, Loreina. She she got one pick
right on a back door cover that was the Bears,
and then the other two lost. All right, So now
this is gonna do this quick. We're not gonna waste
(23:23):
a lot of time because who wants to go first?
Speaker 1 (23:26):
Here? Who wants to go first?
Speaker 9 (23:28):
Alright?
Speaker 7 (23:29):
Ladies first? Poplin?
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Oh yeah, ladies first. Be polite, Poppy, be polite. She's
a woman, all right, Uh, Lorena, do you want me
to give you the games? Do you know the games?
Speaker 9 (23:38):
You know?
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Do you want to be just pick teams here? What
do you want?
Speaker 7 (23:41):
Yeah? I want to know the games?
Speaker 6 (23:42):
Give me the games?
Speaker 1 (23:43):
All right?
Speaker 2 (23:43):
This will take about twenty minutes. Chargers, Steelers, that's the game.
Eddie's at Bears, Colts, Texans, Vikings, Giants, Browns, Eagles, Saints, Broncos, Bucks, Packers, Titans, Panthers,
Raiders in Vegas, Dolphins, Seahawks and Seattle Lions, Cardinals, Ate, Evens, Cowboys,
forty nine Ers, Rams. I'll be at that game, by
the way. Any Mallard militia people were there, let me know.
(24:06):
And Chiefs Falcons who also have two Monday night games, Jags, Bills, Commanders, Bengals.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
Yes, you can just pick pick three.
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Okay, I got them, I got them, I got them.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Okay, all right, what are your picks?
Speaker 7 (24:17):
Steelers?
Speaker 2 (24:18):
You're taking the Steelers. Steelers are a one point favorite.
So you got the Steelers minus one. You just have
to pretty much win the game and you're in good shape.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
All right. Who else?
Speaker 7 (24:27):
I'm taking the Colts.
Speaker 6 (24:29):
Colts.
Speaker 2 (24:29):
Oh interesting, you're going against the Bears. Colts minus two
at home?
Speaker 6 (24:34):
They get serious.
Speaker 7 (24:35):
The Bears were trash last week.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Okay, I have not seen the Colts apparently. All right,
one more here, Lorena.
Speaker 6 (24:45):
One, I got ben the Saints.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Oh no, Lorena, I might have picked the Saints on
the TV show. You've just given them the kiss of
death unless you haven't. Saints they're getting Actually they opened
it too, and there's a five point line move on
that game, a massive line move. They're actually now two
and a half point favorites in that game, so a
lot of a lot of money. All right, Poppy, quickly,
just give me one line on each game.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
If you go too long, I'll hang up on you,
So please do that.
Speaker 9 (25:12):
Wow, I'm actually prepared for this Ben manor opponent Lorena.
On the first game, we're going to go the Kansas
City Chiefs, and.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
All right, Chiefs. Our current line is minus three and
a half. I got it at minus four and a half,
but you have it minus three and a half in Atlanta.
Speaker 9 (25:30):
All right, Okay, so this game I'm liking Travis Kelcey's
on the slum guy. Start them on your fantasy football
Patrick mahon thing, get a fantasy sleeper Kareem Hunt. That's so,
what's the Chiefs?
Speaker 1 (25:40):
All right? Next pick on.
Speaker 9 (25:43):
The next one is a Monday and Monday night football games.
Give me the Buffalo Bills against the Jacks.
Speaker 8 (25:49):
Man.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
When I hear you pick a game and I might
have picked, I get a little concer. Bills are a
five point favorite. Bill's a five point favorite against Jacksonville
at home, and poppy last one.
Speaker 9 (26:02):
Poppy last one, Okay, okay, on this okay, on this one,
I like Bill's market. Let's go with Josh, allam, Bill,
next pick Poppy, and that's picked on our Commanders against
the Bengals.

And who are you taking?
Speaker 9 (26:15):
I'm taking on this one. Hey, Joe Burrow has a
hair like justin Timberlake. Baby bye bye. She's gonna loose
against the Commanders. I like the Commanders, Dog Daniels. What
is it plus seven seven and a half?
Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, it's plus plus seven and a half plus seven
and a half.
Speaker 9 (26:36):
You need plus seven and a half. Let's go with Josh.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
All right, all right, So again for those keeping score
at home, which is No. One, uh, Steelers, Colts and
Saints for the Raina and Poppy says Chiefs. Bill's going
with a couple of favorites there, and the Commanders and
Underdog Lorado going all favorites.
Speaker 7 (26:53):
They're both currently one and four on their pitch.
Speaker 6 (26:56):
I feel really good about this weekend.
Speaker 7 (26:58):
So if you just bet against them, you're making money.
Speaker 2 (27:02):
You're making a lot of money. So yeah, you feel
good about this weekend?
Speaker 7 (27:05):
Lorena, I do I do bet?
Speaker 1 (27:06):

We got the coop scoop on entertainment. But right now,
almost out of the misery, almost out of the misery.

the end of the tunnel. It might be an oncoming train,
but let's get you caught up on everything going on

pretzels at the Rams game.
Speaker 9 (27:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 6 (27:58):
All right, I'll do the show for you.
Speaker 7 (28:00):
There's somebody on Monday that I've never heard of before.

Get a little bit of sleep. What good news?
Speaker 2 (28:28):
UCLA is going to lose by so many points they're
going to cancel practice now? Is that what they're going
They're going to say, Hey, we don't need to practice
because when we practice, we lose by a gazillion points.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Do you know what the points bread is? Mister Ucla there,
do you know what the pointspread is?
Speaker 6 (28:43):
It's not looking good. It's it's not it's a couple
of touchdowns.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Isn't it?
Speaker 2 (28:48):
It is three touchdowns and a half point twenty one
and a half points.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
LSU is favorite in Bopaul Rouge Louisiana.
Speaker 6 (28:56):
I think we're going to find ourselves in something a
little closer a tight game than would be expected.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
At least when they kick off it'll be closer.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
But after that, I don't I don't know. And let's
see where are the people betting? Let me look here,
uh and see, uh, well, the public is kind of split.
Speaker 1 (29:13):
The sharps are all on LSU. Almost ninety of the
sharps are on LSU. So that's the smart people.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
Yeah, you're actually it's actually a little closer with the public. So, yeah,
you're your chalky mick chalk chalk. I get that, Ben,
I take it. I take you well.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
In the NFL, I.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
Usually take dogs, but in college I normally bet favorites
because they have these things called boosters who like to
write big checks when the coach covers the spread.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
So uh, yeah, it's a dirty little secret. Steve Spurrier
knew about that back and then you don't all coach.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (29:46):
I don't think the boosters are that significant with the
nil and what they are now, whether there is a
leveling of the time one.
Speaker 1 (29:53):
Of my sources.
Speaker 2 (29:54):
I don't have time to get into it now because
otherwise we will not have I'll tell you later.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
Yeah, yeah, and yeah, we'll get on a we'll get
on a zoom in the morning or something or maybe not.

origin story of otis story.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Missing from the Transformer franchise is how the parts all
came together.

Oh thank God, who are better known.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
As sworn enemies, but once we're friends, bonded like Brothers.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Yeah, well Megatron became evil because he played for the
Detroit Lions.
Speaker 5 (31:43):

voices and this you got Chris Hemsworth, Scarlet Johansson, Oh

him to wow.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (31:57):
So uh and that's that's getting good reviews. So that
is in theaters this weekend. Moving over to television now,
I want to bring something up that is not did
not premiere anytime in the you know, very recently, but
it premiered back in June. And I just I just discovered.
I was searching through Netflix looking for something to watch
the other night, and it was a it's a documentary,
(32:18):
I guess. I guess you could call it a true
crime documentary. But it's called How to Rob a Bank?
Speaker 9 (32:24):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (32:25):
This is Is this a starring case?
Speaker 1 (32:27):
It was that Kansas City fan, remember.
Speaker 7 (32:29):
The guy, Yeah, Chiefs chiefs Aholic?
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Yeah? Is it him?
Speaker 7 (32:31):
No, it is. It takes you to nineteen ninety Seattle,
and it's the story about one of the worlds, if
not the world's best bank robber.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
It is did he get caught?
Speaker 7 (32:45):
I to have not finished it. I'm like halfway through.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
So if he got caught, he's not the world's best
bank robber.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
But okay, is it you enjoying it so far?
Speaker 7 (32:53):
Yes, it's it's awesome. He pulled off a string of
an unprecedented string of bank robberies after watching Point Break and.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Oh I remember that movie, yeah, the Surfing Bankrupt.
Speaker 7 (33:04):
Yes, yeah, and he basically kind of did the same
his first ever bank robbery where he wore a Ronald
Reagan mask. And yeah, and this guy was an interesting character.
I highly recommend this is on Netflix.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
It's a my who is he your favorite bank robber?
My favorite bank robber is the Geezer Banded. I don't
think they ever caught him. I remember that one. Yeah,
that guy, and he dressed like an old man. He
had like Hollywood makeup on. They figured out at some
point he wasn't an old man when they had video
of him running like he was twenty years old from
a bank in San Diego.
Speaker 7 (33:38):
I think it was well this guy. This guy also
used like prosthetics they call they called him Hollywood. That
was the name of this.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Interesting Yeah, the guy, the Geezer Banded.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
I don't think he's robbed a bank in a while,
but he he I don't think he ever got caught.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
I think he just got away with his wild that
you you could go that long and not get I know.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
Right.
Speaker 7 (33:57):
My my favorite bank robber though, is Angry Bill.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
Yes right, we have a bank robber who calls the
show Angry Bill went to jail for robbing a bank.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
That's true.
Speaker 7 (34:09):
Yes, you're right, I looked it up. He has not
been caught, but his last known robbery occurred in twenty eleven.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
Oh he's going a decade. Yeah, you think he must.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Every day he must be like, oh man, I don't
any knock on the door, you know, like it might
be on to me.
Speaker 7 (34:25):
Who knows, I mean he might. He might have just
you know, got enough money and now he's just living
his life.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
He's in the Bahamas, Yeah, living down in Mexico, living
the life.
Speaker 1 (34:34):
Yes, right, but.
Speaker 7 (34:35):
Anyway, that's that's one that I want to point out
on Netflix. Another one, real, what.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
Happened to the music?
Speaker 7 (34:43):
You know what's going to be? Some music already gave
you two extra minutes?
Speaker 3 (34:46):
Coop?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Oh my god.
Speaker 9 (34:47):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Raina's way of saying to shut up.
Speaker 7 (34:49):
Well, that's too bad. I'm going to talk without the music.
Speaker 9 (34:51):
Wow.
Speaker 7 (34:53):
All right, So now you remember I think it was
a couple of years ago now we had it was
like it was called Monts Sure, the Jeffrey Dahmer story.
Remember that was Emmy nominated. Now, yeah, so this is
this is that was produced by Ryan Murphy. So we
have a continuation. So it's it's a new story, but
it's under the same kind of banner monsters. And this
(35:13):
is the Lyle and Eric Menendez story.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
You know where Dahmer went to college. By the way,
I do not Ohio State.
Speaker 7 (35:19):
Oh okay, the the Ohio State.
Speaker 1 (35:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (35:22):
Yeah, so so obviously the focus here is on the
Menendez brothers and their parents in this are played by
Javier Bardem and Chloe Savigni, and then there's others, some
some of the stars.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
Nathan remember that story about the Minetta's brothers. They were
on the basketball card.
Speaker 7 (35:37):
Yes, Jackson, Yes, that court side of the Knicks game.
Speaker 1 (35:42):
And I was at the Sports Marine. I think though
in LA they were playing the Clippers.
Speaker 7 (35:45):
I think, oh, yeah, yes, I think you're right. And
then last but not least, I want to mention, uh,
the Penguin the basically you know, the Batman Villain. It
is a new mini series limited series on HBO. It
is available right now on the Max app and it
of course stars Colin Farrell as Oswald cobble Pot.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Very important, yes, very very important, real quick.
Speaker 7 (36:09):
And I just want Brian Finley, I know, I know,
I want to bring it up just because I think
you would enjoy it. There's there's a documentary coming up,
and it's a six part documentary. I think it's too
many parts, probably, but it's too long. It's mister McMahon,
oh edmon, No, Vince McMahon.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
I love all McMahons. I love them all. I'm a
fan of all McMahon's.
Speaker 7 (36:34):
That's on Netflix on Wednesday. Docu series Vince McMahon.
Speaker 2 (36:39):
Yeah, well so it's gonna get into all the creepy
stuff you yeah, okay, all right, Well, thank you for
that Kooper loop, and we now have no time for
sports yet, pretty but that's fine because there is some
interesting news out involving a star NFL broadcaster who has
admitted that he does cheer for certain teams in the NFL.

Now, you're not supposed to do that. It's taboo.
Speaker 2 (37:00):

available to you, But we are on there now, so
you can check that out. Speaking of NBC, Chris Collinsworth
confirming that he does cheer for certain teams to win
in the NFL. Yeah, Collinsworth admitted that he he claimed
(39:01):
it dependent on what matchups NBC has said. For example,
he said he was pulling for the Atlanta Falcons on
Monday night because the Falcons play the Chiefs on Sunday,
so it makes the game a little more sexy, you say,
which I.
Speaker 1 (39:14):
Don't know how you can have a problem with that.
He's looking out for his own job.
Speaker 2 (39:17):
He wants the ratings to be up and if the
ratings are up, then he's good now. Also, there were
some rumors this week that Collinsworth could be out after
this year, but NBC going to sign him to a
new extension, so he's gonna call two more Super Bowls.
You cannot get rid of Collinsworth. He's got to bring
back the collins Worth slide.
Speaker 1 (39:37):
Though. We need the Collinsworth slide to return is what
we need. We got to get that back.
