Speaker 1 (00:00):
Here we go. Welcome.

Speaker 2 (00:02):
It's our da berthree.

Speaker 1 (00:05):
Who doesn't love old guys yelling at each other?

Speaker 2 (00:09):
And a video went viral this week. We react to it.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
Where you're at on Mark Gastanaul nineteen eighties NFL legend
confronting nineteen nineties NFL legend Brett farre about taking a
dive for Michael Strahan. What is your also reaction to
Bengal star Joe Burrow, the latest NFL player to have
his home burglarized while playing in an NFL game, and

(00:35):
Micah Parsons has given his side of the story on
why he pouted and stormed off the field like a
child having a conniption fit before the end of the
Cowboy Bengal game on Monday Night Football. We'll talk about
all that and more right now here. It is also Loraina,
the Queen of Hearts. It's our number three. I'll take

(00:58):
grumpy old man for a thousand Alex. Welcome in the
b getting of another hour of the Benmahlor Show. We
are in the air, eywere as we are soundwave soulmates,
embracing the darkness coast to coast, port of the border

(01:22):
and beyond. On the mast and uproarsley, powerful microphones of
fsr ammnating live from the Myer the quagmire of sporting
chatter as we are broadcasting live from the tyract dot
Com studios. Tyract dot Com will help you get there

(01:46):
and over ten thousand recommended installers direct dot com the
way the tire buyings show b I know for Sono
non grata, A big fan of that number ten thousand,
Very nice. All right, So our lead this hour is

(02:09):
from the Way Back Machine, the Way Way Way Back Machine, and.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
It's a grumpy old guy's NFL style.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
So nearly twenty three years after the event happened when
Michael Strahan sacked I say that in the air quote
sacked Brett Favre be Kind. It was controversial.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
It happened on January sixth of twenty two.

Speaker 1 (02:38):
January sixth of twenty two, I believe, was the date
on that the NFL single sack record at that time
had been owned by Mark Gastino, the defensive star for
the Jets there, and he aired out his grievances, very
unhappy with what happened. It's controversial at the time, although

(03:03):
social media did not exist in those days, so it
was a little different. It was us on sports radio
barking and howling at the moon. But in the viral
video which was released this week to promote the Fledgling
Fledgling documentary that is going to be released soon, Gastino
Mark Gastoneau confronted Brett Farv at a memorabilia show. Now

(03:26):
this this did not happen recently, but the audio on
this is pretty bananas, and we actually have we have
the audio on it. This happened in twenty twenty three,
but the video has just gotten out right now. And
just imagine Brett Farv surrounded by a mountain of Green
Bay Packer helmets. He's making some serious coin here to

(03:46):
autograph these helmets. And then Mark Gastineau walks in and
confronts Brett Fav. And let's go to the audio tape.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
Are you telling met a long time ago? At least
I saw you right how you do it when you
fell down for him. I'm going to get my sack bag.
I'm going to get my sack back. Dude, you probably.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Would hurt me.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
Well, I don't care you hurt me. You hurt me,
do you hear me, Yeah, I hear you really hurt me.
You hurt me, Brett.

Speaker 1 (04:17):
We got to get back to this brow I'm sorry,
all right. So some some pr person came over as
like save Brett Farv. He didn't know what to do,
the hurt you hurt me, and then they went back,
you hurt me, b all right. So shortly after that
clip went viral, that was a tease for an upcoming
thirty for thirty documentary titled The New York Sack Exchange.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
It was after that was posted.

Speaker 1 (04:42):
Brett Farv clearly knew it was coming, and he hopped
on social media, did some damage control, gave his side
of the story. He says, you know quote, I was
in no way trying to hurt Mark Gastino, Farv wrote,
I was trying to close out a game and squeeze
the last bit of fun out of a hard pot.
Gat Farv went on to write that in the play,

(05:04):
he claimed he simply called a call for a bootleg play,
thinking that it would be open straight hand. However, beat
his man and was right there to take him down.
Of course, that is some creative writing by Brett Farv.
Talk about using some stretches of the truth. So let
us discuss the question where do you stand on Mark

(05:24):
Gastino confronting Brett Farv about taking a dive for Michael Strahan.
So I have official Scorer's guidebook, cliff Notes, and Pony
and we will combine all of these things together and
we will make sense of the nonsensical together. So, first

(05:46):
of all, I stand with Mark Gastino. I do believe
it or not. I've been here so long behind these
microphones of Fox Sports Radio that I did a mallow
monologue about this incident that I was at Fox Sports
Radio in twenty oh two when this play happened, and
we said at the time, and I don't think those

(06:06):
podcasts exists anymore. If they do, I'm sure Alf and
Tony in the Bay Area and all the boys will
go out and find them. But as I remember, we
said immediately after it happened that it was for Gayze,
and all these years later, that take has obviously stood
the test of time. It is one of the more
bogus records in sports. And I understand what since then

(06:29):
has tied the record. But the commissioner of the NFL
at the time, Paul taglia Boo or as we call
them Paul Taglia Boo boo should have if he had
any balls. The commissioner at the time would have stripped
that record from Michael Strahan. And how could he have
done it? Well, we said at the time, and I
figure exactly what verbiage we said, But it's very simple.

(06:50):
The NFL could have the commissioner, for the good of
the game, could have come out at the time and
used in an official scorer's guidebook. Move from baseball indifference.
They use that in baseball now. If you steal a
base and the scores lopsided and the defense does not
try to throw you out, you don't get credit for

(07:10):
a stolen base. It's kind of like if you get
a sack but the offense is showing indifference or in
this case, they were actually laying up for a sack
Brett Favre and so in that case you don't get
a sack because it's a bogus sack, bogus statistic and
all that. Now there's a lot of people on the internet,

(07:30):
these young punks who weren't around, they weren't old enough
to know what was going on at the time, and
now they're like, whoa, it's just an old guy. He's
got to let it go. Man, come on, spilled milk.
To that, I say phoee. To that, I say phoe.
I stand with Mark Gastino. This guy didn't make big money.
The guy's brain scrambled eggs at this point. He played

(07:53):
in the era when you didn't make cartoonish money, and
this meant something to him. He's an old guy. Now,
his body's broken down, He's got a lot of stuff
going on. But that was that was a big deal
for Mark Gastino, that that was his record. And it's
one thing to see a record broken legitimately where an
athlete earns it. But to have Brett farre and Michael

(08:17):
Strahan in cahoots on that particular play, how could you
be okay with that? I don't care how much time
is paced. Like, people get upset with me because I
still bring up the a holes from Houston that cheated
in the twenty seventeen World Series and were never punished
by Rob mannfor the gutlass commissioner of Major League Baseball.
All Right, so they get upset with me, right, they're

(08:38):
annoyed with me, But I don't care. I mean, was
there was no justice there is no peace and for
Mark Gastino there was no justice.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
There should be no peace. I stand with him. Now.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
Secondly, we now moved to the police blotter bla blotter it.
What is your reaction on to the report that Bengals
starred Joe Burr. Joe Burrow his home burglarized during the
Monday night football game when he was playing for Bart
Simpson and Homer Simpson on Monday night about a thousand

(09:11):
miles away over in Dallas.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
So it's one of those welcome to the club situations.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Burrow can now trade cliff notes with Mahomes and Kelsey
and the other athletes that have been targeted. What the
FBI claims, if the reports are accurate, is an international
crime ring of goons going around and robbing athletes homes
while they're playing in game. But this one got a
little extra spicy because some of Joe Burrow's personal business

(09:42):
ended up in the tabloids. The initial report came from TMZ.
The burglary according to TMZ, at Burrow's seven point five
million dollars Cincinnati mansion. Man, I know it's seven point
five million gets you in LA. Can you imagine what
that gets you in Cincinnati? Does he own a mountain top?
There a hill in Cincinnati? My god, seven and a

(10:03):
half million. Anyway, I was reported that the person that
contacted the cops was a Sports Illustrated swimsuit model, not
Joe Burrow's longtime girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
This of course got the attention of the tabloids.

Speaker 1 (10:21):
Yeah, somebody named Olivia Hunting with a question mark. I
have no idea who that is. She's got eight million
followers on TikTok. Of course, I'm not even on TikTok.
I think I have a two million followers on TikTok.
And so this woman who's known as a SI model,
but that used to be big, but now if you're
like an OnlyFans model, you're bigger than that, or a

(10:42):
TikTok model. Anyway, she called the cops after the break
in at Burrow's luxury home there around eight fifteen on Monday,
so just after kickoff on actually right around maybe even
before kickoff on Monday. And a woman said that told

(11:03):
officers she noticed a shattered bedroom window and the room
being ransacked or had been ransacked when she arrived at
the property, so it likely happened before she got there.
It is unclear why the woman was at the home,
but according to the police documents from the Hamilton County
Sheriff's office, they say that she is. She told them
she's employed by mister Burrow. I wonder where her job

(11:26):
could be anyway. The police report also adds that she
gave officers a non detailed itemization of the items that
were possibly missing.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's fair to say, I don't work for the tabloids,
but I kind.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Of know how men operate. Men do not allow random
women free access to their home. So it's fair to
say that she's more than just on the payroll, if
you know what I'm saying. But what do I know?
All right? Now we head to Dallas. How about them Cowboys?
How about damn company? Fallout? Fallout from the Monday night game.

(12:01):
We did a Mallard monologue on this. Micah Parsons storming
off the field, the Dallas Cowboy defensive star devastated by
Monday's loss. The special teams Bonner heard around the NFL.
He did not stick around. He walked off the field, pouting,
bathed in appropriately. Well. He went on his fledgling podcast

(12:25):
and tried to defend himself. He talked about how he's
a great competitor, how heart breaking the loss was because
he promised that they would win the game. And then
he said, well, it didn't matter whether he stayed or not.
People were just gonna kill him no matter what he did.
He said, it sucked the life out of him, he said,
he claimed, and that was his response. He says, he's

(12:48):
damned if he does and damned if he does it.
All right. So he said, if I was all there
laughing and all that after we lost, people would have
been mad at that. And that is acturate, all right,
So what is your react? What is your reaction here
to Joe Burrow and his rival there Michah Parsons and

(13:08):
Michah Parson's response after the game, and again Michael Parsons saying, Hey,
I'm just a competitor, and.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
I was so emotional I ran off the field, all right.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
So this my thought on this, Michael Parson's confirming that
he is a front running pony, a show pony.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
That he is correct.

Speaker 1 (13:31):
If he played grab ass after the game and been laughing,
that would have been bad. But you are supposed to be.
Maybe I'm wrong on this.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
I don't know. I just do the overnight show.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
But I think you're supposed to be one of the leaders,
lead by example, guys, and that as we have talked
about many times on this show. We said this after
the fact on Monday Night, that losing shows a lot
more about someone than winning. It's very easy to win.
Everyone kisses your ass and talks about how great you are,
but losing reveals true character.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
The Dallas Cowboys have done a lot of losing this year.

Speaker 1 (14:04):
They're five and eight, they're going to miss the playoffs,
and Micah Parsons has shown what he's all about and
it ain't good. And not that it matters because Jerry
Jones likes stars and Michaeh Parsons is a star. He
has many tackles and sacks in that game as you did,
so it doesn't matter in the big picture. Joe Burrow
able to win that game and really feel no, I

(14:28):
think there were two quarterback hits from Parsons in that game,
and so Michah Parsons kind of playing the victim, right.

Speaker 2 (14:35):
I damned if I do, damned if I don't.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
But you're supposed to handle yourself the right way, right,
I mean, here's one of the stars.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
Of the team and all that's embarrassing, right. You are
a pony.

Speaker 1 (14:47):
You're a show pony.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
That's what you are, and that's what the Cowboys are.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
The Cowboys are a front running team, their front running
team that hasn't won the Super Bowl since cable television
was king and social media didn't not exist. It's been
a minute, It has been a minute. Well, it is

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Who else do we have here? I got each of them?

Speaker 1 (20:25):
A chimpanzee from I forty Ian alf the Alien ol
Piner says. Retro toys from the nineteen seventy nine J. C.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Penny catalog.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
Oh, man, those are the days.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
They were the Stone Age days. But when that Catalose
catalog came out.

Speaker 6 (20:41):
I missed those catalogs.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
Oh it was so.

Speaker 1 (20:44):
Cool, man, You just dreamed of playing with those. I
wonder how long they took to make those catalog They
probably spent months taking those photos of little.

Speaker 6 (20:50):
Toys, and it was like that was old online shopping.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yeah, well, yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Donkey sausas said a mister microphone Andy, I love sausage,
by the way, in lion O Lakes, Minnesota, says, George
got everybody a squatty potty. Well, damn right, proud advertiser
the Ben Maler Show. We love the squatty potty. Let
me tell you something. If there was ever an advertiser
that was perfect for the Ben Mahler audience, the squatty potty.

(21:19):
I've met you. You guys need help pooping, and the
squatty potty is the way to go. Yeah, Dante is
going with hair extensions as his answer. J T the
Wingman says, Kiddo gave all his teammates Culver's gift cards

Culver's in the Bay area. Kelly said, a Trump to

terror that's his answer.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Who else do we have?

Speaker 1 (21:47):

Speaker 6 (22:17):
He got everyone a pair of socks.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
A pair of socks. Who doesn't love a pair of socks. Unfortunately,
that is incorrect. There also not a subscription to the
Bill Miller podcast guessed by Tammy in in Vegas, and
also not cookers and hookers and blow or cookers in
Blow as Joe and Boston said. He misspelled the word
hookers the correct answer. George Kittle got all of his

(22:43):
teammates for the forty nine ers a Christmas president of
Crocs Crocs. It's a controversial gift to Kroc. Some people
love the Croc. Other people believe to crock a Croc.

Speaker 6 (23:01):
I think they're absolutely disgusting, but I almost.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
Yes, you're the anti. I'm neutral on Crocks.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
I don't really I don't have any, but I don't.
I don't hate them. I just some people really are
bothered by the Croc.

Speaker 6 (23:12):
So what you're saying is, if someone bought you a
pair of Crocs, you would not throw them away.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
I would not. I would not. I don't know that
I'd wear them very often, but I wouldn't throw them away.
You would throw them away, you would not regive them.

Speaker 6 (23:25):
I don't know. I think I would keep them in
case I ever needed to, like, I don't know, destroy
a pair of shoes.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
No, I go down the beach or something.

Speaker 6 (23:35):
They work, but they're actually really comfy.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
Nurses love them, do they?

Speaker 1 (23:40):
I try to avoid nurses, you know, I don't know.
I figure as I get older, I'll spend plenty of
time with nurses.

Speaker 6 (23:46):
I thought we have a very strong nurse community here.

Speaker 2 (23:49):
Well, we do have a strong nurse community.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
But I'm not I'm not with them. Yes, I'm not
with them at the hospital, and I'm not there as
they're doing their rounds. I don't know what the nurses are.
We wearing the met scrubs, right, they've got that going on.
I have a goatten Nightstown on. They might have that.
Mason and Huntington Beach rights in. He says to me,
the Gas and o'farv thing is as much about mindset

(24:11):
as it is records. Sometime in our lifetime. Mason says,
between say the nineteen seventies and the nineteen nineties, athletes
as a whole stop caring as much about winning and
how they were perceived. I could go on.

Speaker 2 (24:25):
But it's similar to load.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Load and management. Listener Mason says, yeah, it's one of
those things where they make so much money that you'd think, hey,
I want to be perceived a certain way.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
I want I want to be I want to be
perceived as great winning.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
But it's not.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
It's like, it's just that does not happen.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Kurt writes in he says, Michael Parsons is a man,
but he's still young. I get it. Got cowboys. By
the way, who's Lorraina? Kurt says, AI laugh track or
actual person? Yeah, so you know the companies having some issue.
See they got rid of Eddie and uh, I guess
Lorena is actually an AI creation? Was that Google or

(25:07):
was that Elon Musk and Tesla that created virtual Lorena
who is not a real, real person.

Speaker 6 (25:15):
Wouldn't that be crazy if I wasn't a real.

Speaker 2 (25:18):
Person, It's conceivable.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
We don't know.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
I mean, I've never met you.

Speaker 6 (25:22):
I don't know it a hologram.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
You very well could be exactly. All right, let's go
to the phones.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
It is a call in show, and we have the
game show coming up here in a couple of minutes.
But we have time to say hello to eeny Meenie
miney mo. Let's say hello to Chuck in Louisville. Hello, Chuck,
what's up?

Speaker 5 (25:46):
Chuck?

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Up? Chuck? You see what I did there? Chuck?

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Hi, Chuck?

Speaker 6 (25:51):
How much wood could a wood?

Speaker 5 (25:52):
Chuck? Chuck?

Speaker 6 (25:52):
If a wood chuck?

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Chuck? Chuck, Chuck Chuck. I don't hear chuck Chuck Chuck left?

Speaker 2 (25:59):
Chuck hung up. Let's say a weed man, Hello, weed Man.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
See. I wanted to put Chuck on because Chuck wanted
to talk about weed Man. But weed Man's on the
line and Chuck hung up, so I don't know what
Chuck was gonna say. Was Chuck the guy that wanted
weed Man to move to Louisville to work the track? Yes?
Oh yeah, weed Man, the guy wanted you to move
to Louisville because you get a place to stay and
you just got to clean up horse crap? I remember that? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (28:09):
You didn't even know who he was.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
I thought you were a Mets fan more than.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
A Yankee fan.

Speaker 4 (28:13):
No, not now, but way back when I was.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
But you said you you said you love Strawberry and
Good and you were doing coke with those guys back
in the eighties, and now you don't like him. Huh.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
Yeah. Back then, I was a big Med fan. I
went to a lot of games back in Shape Stadium.
I love Dallas straw that I loved whit goodin But
now I love the Yankees more. And really screwedage guy
one sorrow. I was going to the Mets and seven

(28:46):
hundred and sixty five million dollars Are you joking me?

Speaker 5 (28:50):
Come on, man?

Speaker 7 (28:52):
What what?

Speaker 4 (28:54):
What?

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Uh?

Speaker 4 (28:57):
What did all these guys get three hundred million all
of a sudden?

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Yeah, they're all they're all rich.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
You know, this is new news.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Everyone's rich in baseball? What do you want?

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Come on?

Speaker 4 (29:11):
Yeah, but it's a big difference between three hundred million
and seven hundred and sixty five million.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
Yeah, yeah, all right, Well, listen, when you do the
tax on that when you break down. I don't want
to do that. I don't have time to do this
right now. But it's not after taxes. The government's getting
a lot of that money. Let's put it that way.
Right after after taxes between federal, state municipal governments that
they project a collect between three hundred and sixty four

(29:40):
and three hundred and eighty six million in taxes out
of that contract. So he's only getting he's getting like
three hundred million or I guess, well, I guess four
hundred million after taxes.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
All Right, I gotta go.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
We met, but thank you by the great weed man.
Hippie right there wants a place to stay. Do we
have our content? Said?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Ready to go?

Speaker 1 (30:00):
Here? Are we ready?

Speaker 2 (30:01):
Let's hit that button?

Speaker 1 (30:02):
The rain here? Let's play a little game show here
game we have adored too many of this?

Speaker 5 (30:07):
Is it too much or not enough?

Speaker 2 (30:09):
All right?

Speaker 1 (30:10):
Too much or not enough?

Speaker 2 (30:12):
And who do we have playing our game here?

Speaker 1 (30:15):

Speaker 2 (30:37):
I will ask you a series of questions.

Speaker 1 (30:39):
You listening to play along as well the work car
I can't Sleep at Home version of the game, and
Jed will attempt to answer the questions. Now, all of
the questions, the answers are either too much or not enough.
So it's very simple, but yet it's hard. You have
a fifty.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
It's like it's like roulette, betting red or black. You
have almost a fifty to fifty.

Speaker 1 (30:58):
Cham there's I bet a good rack after that good rack.
In Major League Baseball history, there have been thirty five
instances of a player having at least forty homers and
one hundred and twenty five walks in a season.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Is that too much or not enough?

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Five is an obvious sheer random number. Don't like it.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
Not enough enough?

Speaker 1 (31:20):
It's too much, too much. I want to tell them
about the time. Too much, too much, too much?

Speaker 3 (31:24):
All right?

Speaker 1 (31:24):
Is he right?

Speaker 4 (31:26):
No? Thanks?

Speaker 2 (31:28):
You gave both answers, dummy, but the answer was not enough.
There have been forty two instances. Juan Soto is.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
The only one of those not to return to the
same team the following year, So hope for one.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
You cannot get all the questions right. Question number two,
there are five running backs?

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Interesting?

Speaker 5 (31:43):
How much?

Speaker 1 (31:44):
How much? There are five running backs with twenty five
or more total touchdowns since the start of last season
in the NFL. Is that too much or not enough?

Speaker 7 (31:54):
I want?

Speaker 4 (31:54):
I haven't seen enough with the Charbonne guy, and I
need to see more.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
So not enough, sharvon a all right?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
Not enough?

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Let's find out? Maybe constitency too much? There are only
three Kyrone Williams of the i R, I am mistay,
Derek Henry and the Baltimore Ravens and the Titans, and
David Montgomery.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
Who has passed around that NFC North So you're oh
and two.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Question number three, there are currently sixteen players in the
NBA averaging more than three three pointers per game? Is
that too much or not enough?

Speaker 4 (32:34):
I make this upon Brownie Ganges being in the NBA
where there's way to help too much of him?

Speaker 1 (32:38):
And Lebron too much? All right?

Speaker 2 (32:42):
Is it too much? To stay alive?

Speaker 1 (32:44):
Jeed whu fled? Otherwise you would have gotten all three
questions wrong, which is very hard to do.

Speaker 4 (32:49):
Turkey, Baby, I'm.

Speaker 5 (32:53):
What you gonna do better games?

Speaker 2 (32:56):

Ben.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Oh yeah, yeah, I thought, well it's your bet.

Speaker 1 (36:12):
I was just listening. I was enjoying the bed. Yes, yes,
all right, King's intro for you. King Rory writes in
for you Lorena on the Queen of Hearts hashtag Queen
of Hearts. Is it better to break up a relationship
before or after the holidays?

Speaker 6 (36:27):
Well, it depends.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
Do you know that they're getting you a good gift
or not?

Speaker 4 (36:31):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (36:32):
I see yeah yeah.

Speaker 6 (36:36):
Other than that, I mean also, do you enjoy their family?
Because if you don't enjoy their family, there's no point.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
Well let me point something out. This is a question
similar to being like let go, right, being let go
and all that. And I've been let go before the holidays,
I've been let go after the holidays, and there's no
good time to be let go.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
No, you know you know what I'm saying. Yeah, you
hear me on that.

Speaker 6 (36:57):
But also the holidays are kind of a lonely time,
So maybe keep your partner because it gets cold.

Speaker 1 (37:03):
You don't want to be cold, baby, it's cold outside.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
It is not your favorite song, it is.

Speaker 6 (37:08):
It's definitely my favorite.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
Yeah, all right, Cowboy Killer writes and says, is it
a red flag saying I love you during a let's see?
How can I say this a little love making session
to a friend with benefits?

Speaker 2 (37:23):
Oh yeah, definitely not say there, say that.

Speaker 6 (37:30):
Yeah, they'll usually run into the woods never be seen again.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
That's a bad that's a bad sign.

Speaker 1 (37:36):
JT. The Wingman writes in and says, since it's almost Christmas,
I want to know if this is a good gift
for my girlfriend on our first Christmas living together.

Speaker 2 (37:46):
I love everything about her.

Speaker 1 (37:47):
And it's a double toilet for lovers who love to
do everything together side by side toilets.

Speaker 6 (37:54):
You can both go to this picture and I actually
found it quite lovely. Imagine you had a different TV
on each wall, and like your man could watch sports
on one TV, you can watch your soap operas on
the other TV, and you just live happily ever after.
I mean, I feel like Lee and his girlfriend Danica

(38:14):
would really like that.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
All right, here's the thing though, how much time can
you spend Usually you're not there more than a few minutes.

Speaker 6 (38:23):
I don't know about you, but I know a lot
of men who are husbands who spend upwards of forty
five minutes to an hour.

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Well that's to get away from the women.

Speaker 6 (38:31):
But if they if they didn't have in the morning
when everyone's asleep.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
No, trust me, it's usually it just gets them alone
time away from the family. What I've seen, Yeah, there's
no reason to.

Speaker 2 (38:43):
I mean, you get hemorrhoids if you sit on the
toilet for that long.

Speaker 6 (38:46):
You can what I've seen.

Speaker 1 (38:49):
Kelly formerly known as Donut Kelly writes, and she says
so we of course her who knew her new mayn
there in Iowa.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
Also a super fan of the show.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
He wants to find out the sex of the baby.
I don't how do we solve this dilemma? Well, is
Kelly's question there.

Speaker 6 (39:10):
I'm a big fan of your body, your choyce Kelly. Okay,
and you know what, he's already had what five kids?

Speaker 4 (39:17):
So I don't know.

Speaker 6 (39:19):
And if you want to keep the gender of this
one a reveal, I don't see why not. I think
you should do it. Because life is all about surprises
and no matter what, it's going to come out something.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
Well, you would assume there's two options. And I know
it's twenty twenty four, but generally speaking there's two options.
So in my world there's two optioning.

Speaker 6 (39:38):
So one of those striping of it, the anticipation, I
would keep it. I would keep it a sec or
if you want another one, I'm going to keep it
a see if.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
You're you know, if you're cool with it, Kelly, we'll
do a bit on the show and we can have
like an announcement on the show.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
Reveal.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Yeah, the big reveal, Now that would be that would
be massive. Ferg Dog writes and says to women like
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, I'm gonna have to say, yes,
you're speaking for all women, Yes.

Speaker 6 (40:09):
One hundred percent. I mean unless they have a nut allergy,
which would be very very disappointing.

Speaker 1 (40:15):
Yeah, well then you can get that all they're like
fake peanut butter, you know what I'm saying, And you
get that no one wants to.

Speaker 6 (40:20):
Fake not Ben.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
Is that true?

Speaker 1 (40:22):
I don't know. I don't I don't know. Okay, if
you're you're the expert in that department. I guess there
it is all right, the Queen of Hearts very we're
out of time. I mean, if you want, I can
give you another question. But the squatty potty commercial here
