Speaker 1 (00:00):
We beg your pardon, But is our NAB two report
card time or should I say snitch time? What stands
out about the annual now annual NFL Players Association report card?
Players complaining about NFL facilities, travel, food, All that does
anything in that NFL Players Report Card story demand our
(00:22):
attention and thumbs up or thumbs down? Is there a
correlation between grading highly among NFL employees and winning in
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
We'll talk about all that and a whole lot more.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's in another world, the audio world right now in
our number two snitching to hr and it becomes a story.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air ey where as
(01:01):
we drop in for a little bit of a chat,
and we are market fresh. We're always market fresh, coast
to coast, border to border and beyond. On the vast
and tremendously powerful microphones of FSR am monating live from
the point the Sailors Vantage Voight. We're broadcasting live from
(01:27):
the Tirak dot com studios. Tyraq dot com will help
you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free
road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in stallers
almost as many treats as.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Willis Andre and the Commonwealths Dog.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Willis has had tire raq dot com the way tire
buying showb So our lead this hour is from the
Grating Book, which is really just about ratting out the
people that you work for. This has now become a
yearly tradition. It is going to be here the rest
(02:06):
of our lives. The NFL Players Association released their annual
now It's annual team report Cards, a survey of almost
seventeen hundred NFL players who decided to put a grade
on it.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Put a grade on it, put a grade on it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
They graded their respective teams in various categories, and then
some nerds compile all the numbers, and then they waited
until the combine here in late February to release the information.
So if you you didn't see this by chance, maybe
it slipped under your radar. For the second year in
a row. The top two teams.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
In the NFL to work for are who do you
think they are?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
The Miami Dolphins and the Minnesota Vikings, according to the
NFL Players Association's annual Survey Evaluating Workplace Environment. Oh Man,
So the NFLPA claims that they received responses from seventy
(03:11):
seven percent of its membership, So of the sixteen one
hundred and ninety five players, seventy seven percent responded, averaging
fifty two responses per team.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
All players, all players.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Including those who aren't really real NFL players on the
practice squad, could have participated in this. So let us
discuss what stands out about this. What stands out about
this annual NFLPA report complaining about NFL.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Facilities, That's really what this is about.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
It's about complaining publicly shaming the aristocrats that own the
NFL teams to fix things. So I've got Hall and Oates,
Geneva Convention, and Cotton Candy, and we will combine all
all of these things together and we are going to
mollywop this story.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
We're gonna mollywop this story. So A, I'm trying to determine.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Whether I have an unpopular opinion or I have a
popular opinion, because I do believe that social.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Media is the matrix.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
And I was reading some of the feedback here and
many people were just shaming the teams that didn't grade
well on this, and my takes a little different and
I'm gonna give you my take here and then you
can call up.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
And send your messages in if you want on X
as well.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
But my take on this, reading about NFL players whining
about the team facility, the amenities, the perks, the creature comforts,
makes me want to puke in my mouth. It does,
I will literally puke in my mouth. And here's why.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
The whole thing is the theater of the absurd.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
And it's one of those things that has changed in
my lifetime where there the NFL player used to use
it as a badge of honor that they were grizzled,
they were tough, they were weather beaten, that adversity was
a wonderful thing, and that it made them tougher, right,
put some hair on their chest, that whole thing.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
And you talk.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
To the old school NFL guys, they're like, well, we
practiced at high schools, we traveled commercial, we weren't giving
any food or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
There was one trainer for the whole team and that
was that.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And now you have these spoiled athletes, the modern athlete,
the wissification of the athlete, that they are put on
a pedestal, that they have no problem.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Like, I would be embarrassed if I worked.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
For the NFL Players Association to send this out, I'd
be like, Mike, this is so unbecoming, this is so emasculating,
and they have no problem with it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
It's now a yearly thing. They're complaining like they work
in a sweatshop or something like that.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I try getting a real job and see what's life.
You know, life's like when you're not coddled. He's just
they just come across as spoiled. So we should get
out the world's smallest violin and we can play some
music for example. I don't know if you saw this
or not. The Bengals and Saints. Can you believe they
(06:13):
can play that? They were not provided three meals a
day at work. They're not provided three meals a day,
and they had the hoods, but a complain about that?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
What in the world?
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Now, Cincinnati took a beating on this. Cincinnati is the
only team that does not offer daycare or a family
room during home games. Oh my god, you have to
watch your own children. You have to have somebody watch
your kids, like a relative or hire a babysitter.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Can you imagine a world where that takes place. What
are we doing?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Also, the Bengals took some crap because they only have
a part time nutritionists two times a week. That's why
they lost. They didn't have a full time nutritionist. They
would have made the playoffs if they had a full
time nutritionists. Blasphemy. Arizona took some crap in this thing.
Arizona turns out does not give pregame sideline passes to
(07:09):
family members. Boohooo, you talk about cruel and unusual punishment. Now,
the Buffalo Bills, the Indianapolis Colts, the Philadelphia Eagles, and
the Carolina Panthers. I hope you're sitting down for this,
because this is gonna really upset you. This is going
to really cause you some heartache. The Bills, Colts, Eagles,
(07:30):
and Panthers make players sit in coach and the coaches,
in the in the personnel for the team sit in
first class. Sweet baby Jesus, let me repeat that. The Bills, Colts, Panthers,
and Eagles make their players sit and coach and the
(07:51):
coaches and the staff sit in first class.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Can we all say a prayer? All right?
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Thirty percent of the Commander players report ongoing plumbing problems.
Can you imagine working somewhere where the plumbing's not perfect?
Forty four percent of Bucks players also say they've got
plumbing problems, and they say there's a persistent bad odor
that remains around the team facility.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Holy crap on a cracker. How about the Jets?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
The Jets, I'm not done by the way the Jets
players complain the locker room carpet.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Is stained and worn out. It's been there for too long.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
The Bolts, they have the balls the Chargers to charge
because they're the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
They're players for daycare. They offered daycare. You gotta pay
for it. Can you imagine? What are we doing?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Even worse, the Cansas City Chiefs home game. They stay
at a hotel. All they seem to stay at a hotel
at home. But the Chiefs how they stay at for
home games is so dirty?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
How dirty?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Is?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
It's so dirty that some players say, I don't even
know if I can say this on terrestrial radio. Some
of the Chiefs players claim they had to wear shoes
in their room. Oh mg, jimminy Christmas, they needed slippers.
(09:28):
Can you imagine what kind of vermin these players have
to live in?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Oh? Oh my god? I can go on and all.
I mean, there's tons of this stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Now, all of this plays like the old Hall and
Oates song because there's no new Hall.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
And Oats song.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Out of touch, right, we should start a GoFundMe for
the fellas real hardship, real hardship in the NFL today.
You know what, I might have to stop watching the
NFL because of the fact that certain teams don't get
three meals day and certain players have to sit and.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Coach on flights.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Of course they leave out the part they each get
like two or three seats to lay down on.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
But anyway, all right, now page two.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Does anything in the player report actually demand attention? I
gave you a bunch of crazy stuff, so yes, yeah,
I'm not a total douche. Okay, there's some stuff in
here that I am sympathetic with, and I've got the
daily double, the daily double. I've got the daily double. Like,
for example, the New Hyland Patriots players belly ached about
(10:32):
having to fly in a outdated team plane, and I
don't really care about that. They were complaining because they
have ashtrays. You haven't been allowed to fly on a
flight in at least a generation in the United States
and internationally I think banned also, So I don't care
that they have a plane that has ashtrays. It's an
(10:53):
older plane and usually older planes are made better than
the newer planes. But they also complained that the plane
lacks Wi Fi, and that is a legitimate complaint. Now
I do sympathize with the Patriots in twenty twenty five.
That is a violation of the Geneva convention. You have
(11:14):
to have functioning Wi Fi. And I don't fly that much.
I usually fly two or three.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Times a year, maybe sometimes less than that.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
But when I fly in you know, every airlines, Oh,
I'll get Wi Fi or whatever you have certain phone,
you get free Wi Fi. And I've taken some flights
and the WiFi is broken.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And it is a nightmare. It is a freaking night
m You gotta have the WiFi. Somebody needs to be
court martialed. Now.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
My favorite of all stories that came out of this,
and every single business has someone like this. The Atlanta
Falcons had the most on brand gripe you can possibly have.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
So apparently one of the Falcon players has been how
can we say this.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They've had the Tennessee Trots, They've had dysentery. They have
been blowing up the bathroom at the team facility so badly,
how badly, so badly that at least one or two players,
maybe even more than that, needed to mention it in
the survey. Well, they don't call them the dirty birds
(12:30):
for nothing. And that does sound like a TikTok challenge
right a few years back. And what they should do
is find the guilty Falcons player and charge them with
criminal mischief, right, I mean, my guy, we have someone
at our place at Fox Sports Radio that also is noted.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
For destroying the bathroom and it's a no.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Fly zone for at least an hour once this person
goes to the bathroom. All right, Now, last word, so
thumbs up or thumbs down? Is there a correlation between
mean grading highly among NFL players and winning championships winning
playoff games? So the data is a thumbs down, So
(13:12):
I'm gonna go thumbs down.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
This whole story. Cotton candy. It is cotton candy. It
is fluff fluffy mcfluff is what it is.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
The Dolphins, for example, were the NFL's highest ranked team.
How much of that you think is Miami living in
South Florida and how much of that is the Dolphins. Well,
the Dolphins were the NFL's highest ranked team when it
comes to pampering players.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
They had a losing record, they missed the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
The top five graded teams, which include the Vikings who
won fourteen games.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
The top five teams on this went oher to two
in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The bottom five graded teams went oher to one in
the playoffs, and the Chiefs and the Eagles.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Were not in the very top.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
The Chiefs were pretty low as far as the coaches.
Dan Quinn was ranked as the number one head coach.
He was the top head coach in the survey, followed
by Raheem Morris who was number two.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Number.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Of course, the Falcons at many points this year took
a number two also granting highly Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota,
Andy Reid in Cannes City, Dan Campbell and Motown and
Mike McDaniel also did well. Now, the lowest graded coaches
they got to see now sees get degrees, but they
(14:38):
don't normally keep their jobs. That would be Kevin Stefanski,
Doug Peterson, and Matt Eberflus. Now two of those three
coaches are no longer head coaches. Doug Peterson has been
excommunicated from Jacksonville and Matt Eberflus is now the defensive
coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys. It is the Ben Mallor Show.

That's about it. Yeah.

Uh, let's see al frights in he says. Steak and
Shake will now use one beef tallow in restaurants. Yeah,

Oh that is supposed to that taste better the fries taste.
Speaker 1 (19:24):
No, no, no, that's what what?
Speaker 6 (19:29):
Yes, the beef tallow it's not good.
Speaker 2 (19:32):

Speaker 6 (19:34):
It's not good for you.
Speaker 7 (19:36):
It's like.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Bleached and decented Lorena. You have a fatal disease. It's
called life. You're not getting out alive, so you might
as well enjoy the ride.
Speaker 8 (19:48):
All right, there's other places you can get cleaner chicken
wings okay that are not cooked?
Speaker 7 (19:53):
No discussed beef tallow contains es central nutrients such as vitamins, A, D, E,
and K.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah, worst take you that's the worst take you've ever had. Lorena, No,
it's not it is it's a horrible take. Take that
take back. Can you put that take back? That was
such a bad take. Put the take on.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
I'm not taking it back.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
In fact, you know what I'm sending you to take jail.
You're going to take jail. Yept how long is she
in take jail?
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Coop? Ten minutes? Twenty?
Speaker 1 (20:26):
Here you are twenty minutes in take That was such
a bad take on beef tallow from alf that he
set that in. But you you gave the worst take
ever wore exactly. Put her in the penalty box right now.
All right, Late night, your ug tester says, sure, Andy
Reid got a great grade, but what about the fifth
(20:47):
hour podcast guest almost Andy Reid? Almost Andy Reid? Better,
come on much better? Who else do we have? Paige
Dan Timothy from Kentucky says special shout out to the
Jets buck suck, Suck, the only team to receive an
F for ownership. Jeremy and Minnesota says Kevin O'Connell. Winner,
(21:10):
praising that dread Pie says, when I played at pol Kai,
we had to share pads with the offensive players. Luckily,
my pads scored four touchdowns in one game. Maybe the
players should take pay cuts to improve the facilities and
upgrade the services they are missing. Mark in Santa Monica says,
of all the NFL teams, the Jets have the biggest
(21:30):
environmental advantage because there's never expectations of ever being any
good and winning.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
That's about right, That's about right.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Super Marcus Steve writes in says, Damn Lorena might be
right about Bill being Bobby's father. I always wondered why
Peggy had such a negative reaction to him every time
he was around, and why Bobby is so fat and dumb.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I have no idea what that means. But there's a supermarket, Steve.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
And also Bill is blatantly in love with Peggy. Every
time he talks about Peggy, he's infatuated. He's like, oh, Peggy,
they used to date back in high school.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
So you think there's a there's something going on.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
Yeah, and Hank can't have babies. There is an episode
he's infertile.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, there you go.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I thought you were in take jail. By the way,
that feels like I feel like you've already violated. Yeah,
I mean, what are you doing? I mean, we just
put you in take jail. You already broke out? Was
this Shawshank redemption? You got to wait twenty years to
break out or something like that. It's it's been like
not even two minutes, lady.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Yeah, it's a bad job by you. Shame on you. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
All right, let's see here and don't do that, and then.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Let's go do oh do we have you?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Let's say hello to hollering James in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Hello, hollering James, James.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
James, James James has fallen asleep and passed out.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Go figure.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Let's say hello to blind Scott, who's on the north
end of Manhattan, nor Manhattan, north end of Boston.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I wish I live.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
I wish I lived in Manhattan. I looked at the
moving there.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
It's too big.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Actually, I'm all right here now.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
You don't want to be in May depends what you
don't mean. Lower man Hat.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Lower Manhattan's the old manhatt You want to be in
like the upper part where the streets are more.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
It's easier to now.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Yeah, well I'm done with the Tri State AIRIC because
I've been kicked at it, Like thet kicked out of
every school for the blind in Boston, every school in
the Tri State Airic, but kicked out of five different
schools for the blind. Not because I'm a bad blind person,
because I'm I'm like a really good blind person that's
like better than all the other blinds, you know what
I mean. So they the blind people usually get driven
around by their family, their mommy, their daddy, Like I
(23:50):
don't have a partner either, their partner. One thing, like
the reason why a lot of blind people don't use
guide dogs is because they make their partner wicked jealous
because you bond with the dogs so much that the
partner loses control. So a lot of people want to
control the blind person, direct them where to go, tell
them what to do. It gives them a paler phone.
Like I was in the middle of a construction site
earlier today. It was like six o'clock, so everybody went
(24:12):
home for the day and I didn't know what to do.
So a couple came in to help me. It's so funny,
like a woman trying to help me and her boyfriend.
Her boyfriend's wits were into her telling her what to do.
This old lady hit me with her handbag too, and
see yesterday told me never to come back ever again.
It wasn't even doing anything in this other non verbal
autistic lady. Me and her had like a clash together
(24:33):
in like a dispensary where she was screeching out at me,
trying to help me, and I was telling her not
to help me. And Ben and then your best friend
when you go to the lot, I don't want to
say his name on the air, but I know his
name as a gender neutral man. But like when you
go to Las Vegas, he gets wicked drunk because he's
so excited he's with you, and he falls asleep right away,
and then you stay up all night bike on the town.
(24:53):
And another thing too. I'm one of the most famous
Mala militia members that have been bullied by everybody else
in the militia. And I never once I've seen Lorraine.
I stick up with me like they but I can
handle it though, because I would tell him Ben, I
grew up with a bunch of bullies. My dad family
migrated from Germany. He used to have to visit his
family behind the Berlin Wall. And and my great great
(25:15):
uncle is one of the biggest German fighter pilots of
all time, Eric Hartman. So I don't mind if people
buy me. People just bully me on this show because
I'm really into left wing politics, That's why they boiet me.
But I really enjoy everybody on the whole show, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Wow, you covered a lot of ground there, Blind Scott's
like you did your own model, Blind Scott.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
You just covered a lot of Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
I could have kept Yeah, I could have kept going.
So I do have asked burgers, and I'm currently not
being treated for it, which probably isn't the best thing
in the world. But I do like I'm obsessed. Like
I was standing in the show earlier, and I was saying,
who are like more like Fred or Hardy or Ben?
And I was doing like Mary f K, you know,
(25:56):
and I just decided I would marry any one of
the guys. You know, I did like FK with Loraina
and I'm justin and Ben, and I chose Ben you
to marry and I with to toss up between.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Man, We're getting married, Loraina, I'm getting married. Look at
that me and blind Steah, what a happy couple.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Yeah yeah, And then I'm gonna come to the meet
and greet in Los Angeles, Like so I'm gonna come
there to try to like build my persona because my
persona has taken a beating lately.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Now I don't believe you all. You say this every year.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
I'm gonna come into some far away mallord meet and
greet and you never do.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
You never do.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
The only ones you've been to, the only ones you've
been to have been the ones in Boston.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
That's it, none of the other.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
It's because it's because I have like extreme anxiety. So
we did try to go once, but like twenty four
hours before we got to go, I started sleeping and
I just emptied all my intestines, non stuff. So to
avoid that, I'm gonna come like three days ahead of time.
But I need like a traveling nurse or my mom
to come. But I'm really healthy, Like I believe in
(26:58):
what Loraina says.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Say You're really healthy, but you you have Asperger's is
not being treated.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I know you have some other stuff You've told us
about that issues. There's a lot of stuff going on
with you, Blind Scott.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
There's a lot of Yeah, I got diagnoses with skit
cell effective disorder, but you can deny these diagnosises. So
like if a doctor says he diagoes, you can say
you do not accept it, and then you just go
along with your life like as it goes really well,
you know, well.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Yeah, nothing, nothing is wrong if they diagnose you with
mental illness and you just ignore it. I mean that's perfect. Yes,
all right, well, thank you, blind Scott.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I done. I gotta go. Let's go.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
We have a chef, by the way, let's get down.
Nobody cares about my sports takes. Let's talk beef tallow
right now. And we go to Vegas and a man
that claims to be a chef. I will have to
vet this man right now. Chef Marcus. Hello, Chef Marcus,
you're on the Ben Malor Show on Fox.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Hello. How are we doing today?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Hello? Chef?
Speaker 1 (27:54):
What kind of restaurants you? What kind of restaurants you
work at? Are you an actual chef or you like
a home cook?
Speaker 3 (27:59):
No, I'm an actual chef, Aaron, what.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Kind of restaurant?
Speaker 5 (28:03):
So I look at a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Okay, we do everything in beef talam.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
That's disgusting. I will never eat there.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Do not invite you explain, chef, can you explain why?
Speaker 3 (28:16):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, she's still in take jail, Marcus, I apologize. She
keeps breaking out of take jail, which means we're gonna
have to extend her stay and take jail. But can
you explain to Lorraine and other people that are low
information when it comes to cooking, why beef tallow is
is better?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
So beef tallow does not have all the ingredients of
regular friar oil. It is literally just natural beef sat Yeah,
and I believe it's bleached, but it isn't.
Speaker 6 (28:47):
I promise you I appreciate your opinion. Can I read
you this really fast?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
She's going to fake?
Speaker 6 (28:54):
No, no, no, no, it's Google, and Google never lies
to me.
Speaker 8 (28:58):
So it says beef tallow is considered bad for your skin,
primarily because it is highly como dogematic.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You don't even know what that is, Listen, isn't beef
tallow like list like melted?
Speaker 8 (29:18):
You can easily clog your pores and lead to acme
and breakouts.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
And we don't care where men, we don't care who you.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
Don't care you don't want that. Oh my gosh, you
should care.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Your own food, right Marcaus, you eat the food you
cook at the restaurant, right.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yes, and you like it.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Tell me how are your pores?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
He's a man care Men don't care about their pores.
No man cares about his pores.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
No, I'm not saying your face. I'm just saying far
food and it's okay.
Speaker 6 (29:48):
Yeah, you are what you eat. You're going to become
beef tallow.
Speaker 7 (29:52):
Oh good, I have been near this establishment.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
Disgusted.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
What I just I just looked out.
Speaker 2 (30:01):

Speaker 3 (30:11):
Nobody can get me in trouble, all right.
Speaker 2 (30:14):

at the Eldorado Cantina.
Speaker 7 (30:19):
Yea, which is which is in the Gentleman's club?
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Right?
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Well, we have one there, we have one in Tivoli Village,
and then we have one on the other side of
the south.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Okay, I've heard great things about strip club food.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
It's a little different in Vegas. It's the next level.
They do it right there in Vegas. All right, well, listen,
you're kicking ass. Apparently got three year restaurants there. Way
to go. You're doing good, but you.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
So you guys got to come down, come see us,

You can go there, lose all your money. We got

He won't starve when you lose all your money playing poker.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I lose all my money in the sports book. I'll go, hey, Marcus,
give me some beef tallow. I don't even want any.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Like you know, the chips or the great Mexican food.
I'll just eat a spoonful of beef talow.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
That's all. That's all.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Uh uh, mister Irrigation says, is it a real Mexican
food restaurant or a text mex if text mex what state?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Nah? Does anyone like text Max? I don't not a
big text mex guy.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Let's see here ferk Doug says, and you please mute
Lorena's Mike for the rest of the night. I cannot
take any more anti beef Tallo propaganda. Justin and Cincinnati
says blind Scott forgot to mention his blank diagnosis. Milkman
Mike says that blind Scott needs a traveling companion.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
He can always hire hollering James mom oh boy man alive?
Speaker 1 (32:25):
All right, it is the Ben Mahlor Show. As we
are working our way through the overnight, Chris writes, and
he says, blind Scott got kicked out of the blind
school because everyone was sick of seeing him.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
That's a fair point, Chris. The other blind people are like,
we're tired of looking at you. Just leaves. Well. The
great thing about blind Scott I've listened. He's listening to the.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Show for a year. Has been a great support of
the show. And you know, we don't agree on everything,
but that's fine.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Who cares. It's a dumb radio show.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
But the thing about blind Scott, and he's one of
these people that I've known in my life that wherever
he goes, there's like a cloud of trouble that follows
follows Blind Scott around. There's always there's always people upset,
usually blind people. People like look out for blind people.
They open the door right. They feel I don't know, pity,
or they feel like they got to help them out
a little bit because they got a tough, tough set
(33:22):
of cards in life, and so they try to help
him out.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
That's a reasonable sensible thing to do, right. Rational people
do that with blind.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Scott, though he's always ended up getting the shouting matches.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
It's just craziness anyway. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
As we press on, I did want to mention this
and we'll get to mallarly third degree.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
So Dwayne Wade told this wild story.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
He said that Lebron James the moment that Lebron turned
on the Miami Heat and this is what Dwayne Wade said,
The moment he realized that Lebron was likely to leave
Miami when they were getting to the finals every year
and winning championships, was on a chartered flight when pat
Riley was upset with the way the team was playing,
(34:03):
and according to Dwayne Wade, pat Riley took away Lebron
James cookies.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
I'm not making this up, Dwayne Wade said, Lebron.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
On every flight, every road trip, the heat would go on,
he would have two bags.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
One bag would be.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Meals prepared by his personal chef, and the other bag
was filled with chocolate chip cookies, which is I guess
Lebron's cheat food.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
He loves chocolate chip cookie. Who doesn't.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Hey, so Lebron if he would need to chalk the
chip cookies all through the flight, and Riley was so
upset he took him away.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
And Dwayne Wade said that was the moment he.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Realized that stuff was going the wrong way and pat
Riley was micro managing.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
And that was when Lebron he decided to leave the
heat because he couldn't have his chocolate chip cookie. All right,
here's the instant trivia. Here we go.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Despite playing in the modern era, Blank's one eighty six
lifetime batting average is the second lowest in al slash
NL history among players with two thousand at bats. The
only player worse is Bill Bergen, who batted one seventy again.
(35:18):
Despite playing in the modern era, Blank's one to eighty
six lifetime batting average the second lowest in the Big
League history among players with two thousand at bats.
Speaker 2 (35:27):
That's the instant trivia.
Speaker 1 (35:28):
We'll get to that also, Mallard of the third degree,
and we'll do it next.

Have you noticed Justin and Cincinnati trying to sneak in

Speaker 2 (37:38):
Recently, hmm, things that make you go.
Speaker 1 (37:40):
Eke in Roseville, Minnesota says we Willie keeler pee wee
Reese from Dante. That's his answer, Larina, what say you?
It's not Lenny Wilkins. Guess by shaneon de moyne.
Speaker 6 (37:49):
I don't know why what Scooby do is the only
little dog on my brain?
Speaker 1 (37:55):
The correct answer, Guardians Catcher, former Indian Austin Hedges, Boston Hedges.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
He's played ten years.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
He's got a one to eighty six lifetime batting average.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Here we go, here, we're going.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
We'll go to a third degree.
Speaker 2 (38:11):
This is one Big Ben gets grilled cool.
Speaker 7 (38:15):
In a recent interview, Eagles GM Howie Roseman said that
Sakwon Barkley had the best season of a skill position
player in NFL history. Now, he pointed to Barkley having
seven rushes of sixty plus yards and that being more
than anyone in the history of the NFL, and and
the fact that he won a championship, And is he right?
Speaker 2 (38:34):
No, No, he's not.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
I'm gonna expand them this more later, but I disagree
the Barkley was wonderful. I feel like most of that
was against the Rams. I think he had four to
sixty plus yard runs against the Rams and the playoffs.
In the regular season, he was wonderful. Well, let's not
get crazy. It wasn't the greatest season of all time
by a non quarterback.
Speaker 7 (38:53):
Next, well, Aden Hutchinson may want a team up with
Miles Garrett and the Lions. The Lions GM Brad Holmes
said the team is quote probably not in a position
to add a star edge rusher in the immediate future. Ben,
do they need one or will the return of a
healthy Hutchinson be enough?
Speaker 1 (39:08):
No, that the defense sucked last year. Even with Hutchinson,
they weren't that great defensively. This is the window of
opportunity for the Lies now. They do have a handicap
with you'ared golf, so they need all the help they
can get because golf's not a big game quarterback. So yes,
this true cares about draft picks. Get a good team,
get good players.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Next, Shake Gilless.
Speaker 7 (39:27):
Alexander is currently the front runner to win NBA MVP,
but Nikolay Jokic has been on a tear already has
more triple doubles than he did in his MVP seasons, Ben,
how do you think this Awards race plays out.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Yeah, so you're asking me today today, I believe the
former Clipper Shay Yogas Alexander will win, and Jokicic has
won a couple of these things, so I think there's
voter fatigue.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
He will not win this year. How did we do
you pass this edition? That is a win.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
You get Putter on the guard and the Raiders still
in take Jail.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
He's still in Take Jail.
We beg your pardon, But is our NAB two report
card time or should I say snitch time? What stands
out about the annual now annual NFL Players Association report card?
Players complaining about NFL facilities, travel, food, All that does
anything in that NFL Players Report Card story demand our
(00:22):
attention and thumbs up or thumbs down? Is there a
correlation between grading highly among NFL employees and winning in
the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
We'll talk about all that and a whole lot more.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
It's in another world, the audio world right now in
our number two snitching to hr and it becomes a story.
Welcome in the beginning of another hour of the Ben
Malor Show. We are in the air ey where as
(01:01):
we drop in for a little bit of a chat,
and we are market fresh. We're always market fresh, coast
to coast, border to border and beyond. On the vast
and tremendously powerful microphones of FSR am monating live from
the point the Sailors Vantage Voight. We're broadcasting live from
(01:27):
the Tirak dot com studios. Tyraq dot com will help
you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free
road hazard protection, and over ten thousand recommended in stallers
almost as many treats as.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
Willis Andre and the Commonwealths Dog.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Willis has had tire raq dot com the way tire
buying showb So our lead this hour is from the
Grating Book, which is really just about ratting out the
people that you work for. This has now become a
yearly tradition. It is going to be here the rest
(02:06):
of our lives. The NFL Players Association released their annual
now It's annual team report Cards, a survey of almost
seventeen hundred NFL players who decided to put a grade
on it.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Put a grade on it, put a grade on it.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
They graded their respective teams in various categories, and then
some nerds compile all the numbers, and then they waited
until the combine here in late February to release the information.
So if you you didn't see this by chance, maybe
it slipped under your radar. For the second year in
a row. The top two teams.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
In the NFL to work for are who do you
think they are?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
The Miami Dolphins and the Minnesota Vikings, according to the
NFL Players Association's annual Survey Evaluating Workplace Environment. Oh Man,
So the NFLPA claims that they received responses from seventy
(03:11):
seven percent of its membership, So of the sixteen one
hundred and ninety five players, seventy seven percent responded, averaging
fifty two responses per team.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
All players, all players.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Including those who aren't really real NFL players on the
practice squad, could have participated in this. So let us
discuss what stands out about this. What stands out about
this annual NFLPA report complaining about NFL.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Facilities, That's really what this is about.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
It's about complaining publicly shaming the aristocrats that own the
NFL teams to fix things. So I've got Hall and Oates,
Geneva Convention, and Cotton Candy, and we will combine all
all of these things together and we are going to
mollywop this story.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
We're gonna mollywop this story. So A, I'm trying to determine.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Whether I have an unpopular opinion or I have a
popular opinion, because I do believe that social.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Media is the matrix.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
And I was reading some of the feedback here and
many people were just shaming the teams that didn't grade
well on this, and my takes a little different and
I'm gonna give you my take here and then you
can call up.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
And send your messages in if you want on X
as well.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
But my take on this, reading about NFL players whining
about the team facility, the amenities, the perks, the creature comforts,
makes me want to puke in my mouth. It does,
I will literally puke in my mouth. And here's why.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
The whole thing is the theater of the absurd.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
And it's one of those things that has changed in
my lifetime where there the NFL player used to use
it as a badge of honor that they were grizzled,
they were tough, they were weather beaten, that adversity was
a wonderful thing, and that it made them tougher, right,
put some hair on their chest, that whole thing.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
And you talk.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
To the old school NFL guys, they're like, well, we
practiced at high schools, we traveled commercial, we weren't giving
any food or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
There was one trainer for the whole team and that
was that.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
And now you have these spoiled athletes, the modern athlete,
the wissification of the athlete, that they are put on
a pedestal, that they have no problem.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Like, I would be embarrassed if I worked.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
For the NFL Players Association to send this out, I'd
be like, Mike, this is so unbecoming, this is so emasculating,
and they have no problem with it.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
It's now a yearly thing. They're complaining like they work
in a sweatshop or something like that.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
I try getting a real job and see what's life.
You know, life's like when you're not coddled. He's just
they just come across as spoiled. So we should get
out the world's smallest violin and we can play some
music for example. I don't know if you saw this
or not. The Bengals and Saints. Can you believe they
(06:13):
can play that? They were not provided three meals a
day at work. They're not provided three meals a day,
and they had the hoods, but a complain about that?
Speaker 2 (06:23):
What in the world?
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Now, Cincinnati took a beating on this. Cincinnati is the
only team that does not offer daycare or a family
room during home games. Oh my god, you have to
watch your own children. You have to have somebody watch
your kids, like a relative or hire a babysitter.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Can you imagine a world where that takes place. What
are we doing?
Speaker 1 (06:47):
Also, the Bengals took some crap because they only have
a part time nutritionists two times a week. That's why
they lost. They didn't have a full time nutritionist. They
would have made the playoffs if they had a full
time nutritionists. Blasphemy. Arizona took some crap in this thing.
Arizona turns out does not give pregame sideline passes to
(07:09):
family members. Boohooo, you talk about cruel and unusual punishment. Now,
the Buffalo Bills, the Indianapolis Colts, the Philadelphia Eagles, and
the Carolina Panthers. I hope you're sitting down for this,
because this is gonna really upset you. This is going
to really cause you some heartache. The Bills, Colts, Eagles,
(07:30):
and Panthers make players sit in coach and the coaches,
in the in the personnel for the team sit in
first class. Sweet baby Jesus, let me repeat that. The Bills, Colts, Panthers,
and Eagles make their players sit and coach and the
(07:51):
coaches and the staff sit in first class.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Can we all say a prayer? All right?
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Thirty percent of the Commander players report ongoing plumbing problems.
Can you imagine working somewhere where the plumbing's not perfect?
Forty four percent of Bucks players also say they've got
plumbing problems, and they say there's a persistent bad odor
that remains around the team facility.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
Holy crap on a cracker. How about the Jets?
Speaker 1 (08:23):
The Jets, I'm not done by the way the Jets
players complain the locker room carpet.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Is stained and worn out. It's been there for too long.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
The Bolts, they have the balls the Chargers to charge
because they're the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
They're players for daycare. They offered daycare. You gotta pay
for it. Can you imagine? What are we doing?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Even worse, the Cansas City Chiefs home game. They stay
at a hotel. All they seem to stay at a hotel
at home. But the Chiefs how they stay at for
home games is so dirty?
Speaker 2 (09:04):
How dirty?
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Is?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
It's so dirty that some players say, I don't even
know if I can say this on terrestrial radio. Some
of the Chiefs players claim they had to wear shoes
in their room. Oh mg, jimminy Christmas, they needed slippers.
(09:28):
Can you imagine what kind of vermin these players have
to live in?
Speaker 2 (09:35):
Oh? Oh my god? I can go on and all.
I mean, there's tons of this stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
Now, all of this plays like the old Hall and
Oates song because there's no new Hall.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
And Oats song.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Out of touch, right, we should start a GoFundMe for
the fellas real hardship, real hardship in the NFL today.
You know what, I might have to stop watching the
NFL because of the fact that certain teams don't get
three meals day and certain players have to sit and.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Coach on flights.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
Of course they leave out the part they each get
like two or three seats to lay down on.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
But anyway, all right, now page two.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Does anything in the player report actually demand attention? I
gave you a bunch of crazy stuff, so yes, yeah,
I'm not a total douche. Okay, there's some stuff in
here that I am sympathetic with, and I've got the
daily double, the daily double. I've got the daily double. Like,
for example, the New Hyland Patriots players belly ached about
(10:32):
having to fly in a outdated team plane, and I
don't really care about that. They were complaining because they
have ashtrays. You haven't been allowed to fly on a
flight in at least a generation in the United States
and internationally I think banned also, So I don't care
that they have a plane that has ashtrays. It's an
(10:53):
older plane and usually older planes are made better than
the newer planes. But they also complained that the plane
lacks Wi Fi, and that is a legitimate complaint. Now
I do sympathize with the Patriots in twenty twenty five.
That is a violation of the Geneva convention. You have
(11:14):
to have functioning Wi Fi. And I don't fly that much.
I usually fly two or three.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Times a year, maybe sometimes less than that.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
But when I fly in you know, every airlines, Oh,
I'll get Wi Fi or whatever you have certain phone,
you get free Wi Fi. And I've taken some flights
and the WiFi is broken.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
And it is a nightmare. It is a freaking night
m You gotta have the WiFi. Somebody needs to be
court martialed. Now.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
My favorite of all stories that came out of this,
and every single business has someone like this. The Atlanta
Falcons had the most on brand gripe you can possibly have.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
So apparently one of the Falcon players has been how
can we say this.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
They've had the Tennessee Trots, They've had dysentery. They have
been blowing up the bathroom at the team facility so badly,
how badly, so badly that at least one or two players,
maybe even more than that, needed to mention it in
the survey. Well, they don't call them the dirty birds
(12:30):
for nothing. And that does sound like a TikTok challenge
right a few years back. And what they should do
is find the guilty Falcons player and charge them with
criminal mischief, right, I mean, my guy, we have someone
at our place at Fox Sports Radio that also is noted.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
For destroying the bathroom and it's a no.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Fly zone for at least an hour once this person
goes to the bathroom. All right, Now, last word, so
thumbs up or thumbs down? Is there a correlation between
mean grading highly among NFL players and winning championships winning
playoff games? So the data is a thumbs down, So
(13:12):
I'm gonna go thumbs down.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
This whole story. Cotton candy. It is cotton candy. It
is fluff fluffy mcfluff is what it is.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
The Dolphins, for example, were the NFL's highest ranked team.
How much of that you think is Miami living in
South Florida and how much of that is the Dolphins. Well,
the Dolphins were the NFL's highest ranked team when it
comes to pampering players.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
They had a losing record, they missed the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
The top five graded teams, which include the Vikings who
won fourteen games.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
The top five teams on this went oher to two
in the playoffs.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
The bottom five graded teams went oher to one in
the playoffs, and the Chiefs and the Eagles.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
Were not in the very top.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
The Chiefs were pretty low as far as the coaches.
Dan Quinn was ranked as the number one head coach.
He was the top head coach in the survey, followed
by Raheem Morris who was number two.
Speaker 2 (14:12):
Number.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Of course, the Falcons at many points this year took
a number two also granting highly Kevin O'Connell in Minnesota,
Andy Reid in Cannes City, Dan Campbell and Motown and
Mike McDaniel also did well. Now, the lowest graded coaches
they got to see now sees get degrees, but they
(14:38):
don't normally keep their jobs. That would be Kevin Stefanski,
Doug Peterson, and Matt Eberflus. Now two of those three
coaches are no longer head coaches. Doug Peterson has been
excommunicated from Jacksonville and Matt Eberflus is now the defensive
coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys. It is the Ben Mallor Show.

Speaker 7 (19:36):
It's like.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Bleached and decented Lorena. You have a fatal disease. It's
called life. You're not getting out alive, so you might
as well enjoy the ride.
Speaker 8 (19:48):
All right, there's other places you can get cleaner chicken
wings okay that are not cooked?
Speaker 7 (19:53):
No discussed beef tallow contains es central nutrients such as vitamins, A, D, E,
and K.
Speaker 1 (20:01):
Yeah, worst take you that's the worst take you've ever had. Lorena, No,
it's not it is it's a horrible take. Take that
take back. Can you put that take back? That was
such a bad take. Put the take on.
Speaker 6 (20:13):
I'm not taking it back.
Speaker 1 (20:14):
In fact, you know what I'm sending you to take jail.
You're going to take jail. Yept how long is she

Speaker 2 (20:21):
Coop? Ten minutes? Twenty?
Speaker 1 (20:26):

ever wore exactly. Put her in the penalty box right now.
All right, Late night, your ug tester says, sure, Andy
Reid got a great grade, but what about the fifth
(20:47):
hour podcast guest almost Andy Reid? Almost Andy Reid? Better,
come on much better? Who else do we have? Paige
Dan Timothy from Kentucky says special shout out to the
Jets buck suck, Suck, the only team to receive an
F for ownership. Jeremy and Minnesota says Kevin O'Connell. Winner,
(21:10):
praising that dread Pie says, when I played at pol Kai,
we had to share pads with the offensive players. Luckily,
my pads scored four touchdowns in one game. Maybe the
players should take pay cuts to improve the facilities and
upgrade the services they are missing. Mark in Santa Monica says,
of all the NFL teams, the Jets have the biggest
(21:30):
environmental advantage because there's never expectations of ever being any
good and winning.
Speaker 2 (21:37):
That's about right, That's about right.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Super Marcus Steve writes in says, Damn Lorena might be
right about Bill being Bobby's father. I always wondered why
Peggy had such a negative reaction to him every time
he was around, and why Bobby is so fat and dumb.
Speaker 2 (21:55):
I have no idea what that means. But there's a supermarket, Steve.
Speaker 6 (21:59):
And also Bill is blatantly in love with Peggy. Every
time he talks about Peggy, he's infatuated. He's like, oh, Peggy,
they used to date back in high school.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
So you think there's a there's something going on.
Speaker 6 (22:11):
Yeah, and Hank can't have babies. There is an episode
he's infertile.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Okay, there you go.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I thought you were in take jail. By the way,
that feels like I feel like you've already violated. Yeah,
I mean, what are you doing? I mean, we just
put you in take jail. You already broke out? Was
this Shawshank redemption? You got to wait twenty years to
break out or something like that. It's it's been like
not even two minutes, lady.
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Yeah, it's a bad job by you. Shame on you. Anyway.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
All right, let's see here and don't do that, and then.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
Let's go do oh do we have you?
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Let's say hello to hollering James in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
Hello, hollering James, James.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
James, James James has fallen asleep and passed out.
Speaker 2 (23:03):
Go figure.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
Let's say hello to blind Scott, who's on the north
end of Manhattan, nor Manhattan, north end of Boston.
Speaker 4 (23:11):
I wish I live.
Speaker 5 (23:12):
I wish I lived in Manhattan. I looked at the
moving there.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
It's too big.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Actually, I'm all right here now.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
You don't want to be in May depends what you
don't mean. Lower man Hat.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
Lower Manhattan's the old manhatt You want to be in
like the upper part where the streets are more.
Speaker 2 (23:26):
It's easier to now.
Speaker 5 (23:27):
Yeah, well I'm done with the Tri State AIRIC because
I've been kicked at it, Like thet kicked out of
every school for the blind in Boston, every school in
the Tri State Airic, but kicked out of five different
schools for the blind. Not because I'm a bad blind person,
because I'm I'm like a really good blind person that's
like better than all the other blinds, you know what
I mean. So they the blind people usually get driven
around by their family, their mommy, their daddy, Like I
(23:50):
don't have a partner either, their partner. One thing, like
the reason why a lot of blind people don't use
guide dogs is because they make their partner wicked jealous
because you bond with the dogs so much that the
partner loses control. So a lot of people want to
control the blind person, direct them where to go, tell
them what to do. It gives them a paler phone.
Like I was in the middle of a construction site
earlier today. It was like six o'clock, so everybody went
(24:12):
home for the day and I didn't know what to do.
So a couple came in to help me. It's so funny,
like a woman trying to help me and her boyfriend.
Her boyfriend's wits were into her telling her what to do.
This old lady hit me with her handbag too, and
see yesterday told me never to come back ever again.
It wasn't even doing anything in this other non verbal
autistic lady. Me and her had like a clash together
(24:33):
in like a dispensary where she was screeching out at me,
trying to help me, and I was telling her not
to help me. And Ben and then your best friend
when you go to the lot, I don't want to
say his name on the air, but I know his
name as a gender neutral man. But like when you
go to Las Vegas, he gets wicked drunk because he's
so excited he's with you, and he falls asleep right away,
and then you stay up all night bike on the town.
(24:53):
And another thing too. I'm one of the most famous
Mala militia members that have been bullied by everybody else
in the militia. And I never once I've seen Lorraine.
I stick up with me like they but I can
handle it though, because I would tell him Ben, I
grew up with a bunch of bullies. My dad family
migrated from Germany. He used to have to visit his
family behind the Berlin Wall. And and my great great
(25:15):
uncle is one of the biggest German fighter pilots of
all time, Eric Hartman. So I don't mind if people
buy me. People just bully me on this show because
I'm really into left wing politics, That's why they boiet me.
But I really enjoy everybody on the whole show, you
know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Wow, you covered a lot of ground there, Blind Scott's
like you did your own model, Blind Scott.
Speaker 2 (25:34):
You just covered a lot of Yeah.
Speaker 5 (25:35):
I could have kept Yeah, I could have kept going.
So I do have asked burgers, and I'm currently not
being treated for it, which probably isn't the best thing
in the world. But I do like I'm obsessed. Like
I was standing in the show earlier, and I was saying,
who are like more like Fred or Hardy or Ben?
And I was doing like Mary f K, you know,
(25:56):
and I just decided I would marry any one of
the guys. You know, I did like FK with Loraina
and I'm justin and Ben, and I chose Ben you
to marry and I with to toss up between.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Man, We're getting married, Loraina, I'm getting married. Look at
that me and blind Steah, what a happy couple.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (26:16):
Yeah yeah, And then I'm gonna come to the meet
and greet in Los Angeles, Like so I'm gonna come
there to try to like build my persona because my
persona has taken a beating lately.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Now I don't believe you all. You say this every year.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
I'm gonna come into some far away mallord meet and
greet and you never do.
Speaker 2 (26:32):
You never do.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
The only ones you've been to, the only ones you've
been to have been the ones in Boston.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
That's it, none of the other.
Speaker 5 (26:38):
It's because it's because I have like extreme anxiety. So
we did try to go once, but like twenty four
hours before we got to go, I started sleeping and
I just emptied all my intestines, non stuff. So to
avoid that, I'm gonna come like three days ahead of time.
But I need like a traveling nurse or my mom
to come. But I'm really healthy, Like I believe in
(26:58):
what Loraina says.
Speaker 1 (27:00):
Say You're really healthy, but you you have Asperger's is
not being treated.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I know you have some other stuff You've told us
about that issues. There's a lot of stuff going on
with you, Blind Scott.
Speaker 5 (27:09):
There's a lot of Yeah, I got diagnoses with skit
cell effective disorder, but you can deny these diagnosises. So
like if a doctor says he diagoes, you can say
you do not accept it, and then you just go
along with your life like as it goes really well,
you know, well.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Yeah, nothing, nothing is wrong if they diagnose you with
mental illness and you just ignore it. I mean that's perfect. Yes,
all right, well, thank you, blind Scott.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I done. I gotta go. Let's go.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
We have a chef, by the way, let's get down.
Nobody cares about my sports takes. Let's talk beef tallow
right now. And we go to Vegas and a man
that claims to be a chef. I will have to
vet this man right now. Chef Marcus. Hello, Chef Marcus,
you're on the Ben Malor Show on Fox.
Speaker 3 (27:51):
Hello. How are we doing today?
Speaker 2 (27:53):
Hello? Chef?
Speaker 1 (27:54):
What kind of restaurants you? What kind of restaurants you
work at? Are you an actual chef or you like
a home cook?
Speaker 3 (27:59):
No, I'm an actual chef, Aaron, what.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Kind of restaurant?
Speaker 5 (28:03):
So I look at a restaurant.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Okay, we do everything in beef talam.
Speaker 6 (28:11):
That's disgusting. I will never eat there.
Speaker 2 (28:12):
Do not invite you explain, chef, can you explain why?
Speaker 3 (28:16):
No?
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Yeah, she's still in take jail, Marcus, I apologize. She
keeps breaking out of take jail, which means we're gonna
have to extend her stay and take jail. But can
you explain to Lorraine and other people that are low
information when it comes to cooking, why beef tallow is
is better?
Speaker 3 (28:32):
So beef tallow does not have all the ingredients of
regular friar oil. It is literally just natural beef sat Yeah,
and I believe it's bleached, but it isn't.
Speaker 6 (28:47):
I promise you I appreciate your opinion. Can I read
you this really fast?
Speaker 2 (28:52):
She's going to fake?
Speaker 6 (28:54):
No, no, no, no, it's Google, and Google never lies
to me.
Speaker 8 (28:58):
So it says beef tallow is considered bad for your skin,
primarily because it is highly como dogematic.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
You don't even know what that is, Listen, isn't beef
tallow like list like melted?
Speaker 8 (29:18):
You can easily clog your pores and lead to acme
and breakouts.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
And we don't care where men, we don't care who you.
Speaker 6 (29:25):
Don't care you don't want that. Oh my gosh, you
should care.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Your own food, right Marcaus, you eat the food you
cook at the restaurant, right.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yes, and you like it.
Speaker 6 (29:36):
Tell me how are your pores?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
He's a man care Men don't care about their pores.
No man cares about his pores.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
No, I'm not saying your face. I'm just saying far
food and it's okay.
Speaker 6 (29:48):
Yeah, you are what you eat. You're going to become
beef tallow.
Speaker 7 (29:52):
Oh good, I have been near this establishment.
Speaker 6 (29:59):
Disgusted.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
What I just I just looked out.
Speaker 2 (30:01):

Speaker 7 (30:19):
Yea, which is which is in the Gentleman's club?
Speaker 2 (30:23):
Right?
Speaker 3 (30:24):
Well, we have one there, we have one in Tivoli Village,
and then we have one on the other side of
the south.
Speaker 6 (30:29):
Okay, I've heard great things about strip club food.
Speaker 2 (30:35):
It's a little different in Vegas. It's the next level.
They do it right there in Vegas. All right, well, listen,
you're kicking ass. Apparently got three year restaurants there. Way
to go. You're doing good, but you.
Speaker 3 (30:45):
So you guys got to come down, come see us,

Speaker 1 (30:51):

Speaker 6 (30:57):
We will call Margarita dinner.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
Oh we're still in take just she keeps Marcus. She's

appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Have a great night. There's Marcus. Get that man. We
gotta we got a chef hook up in Vegas. That's huge. Cool.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
You can go there, lose all your money. We got
to hook up right there. Get some good Mexican food.
He won't starve when you lose all your money playing poker.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I lose all my money in the sports book. I'll go, hey, Marcus,
give me some beef tallow. I don't even want any.
Speaker 1 (31:34):
Like you know, the chips or the great Mexican food.
I'll just eat a spoonful of beef talow.
Speaker 2 (31:40):
That's all. That's all.
Speaker 1 (31:43):
Uh uh, mister Irrigation says, is it a real Mexican
food restaurant or a text mex if text mex what state?
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Nah? Does anyone like text Max? I don't not a
big text mex guy.
Speaker 1 (31:58):
Let's see here ferk Doug says, and you please mute
Lorena's Mike for the rest of the night. I cannot
take any more anti beef Tallo propaganda. Justin and Cincinnati
says blind Scott forgot to mention his blank diagnosis. Milkman
Mike says that blind Scott needs a traveling companion.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
He can always hire hollering James mom oh boy man alive?
Speaker 1 (32:25):
All right, it is the Ben Mahlor Show. As we
are working our way through the overnight, Chris writes, and
he says, blind Scott got kicked out of the blind
school because everyone was sick of seeing him.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
That's a fair point, Chris. The other blind people are like,
we're tired of looking at you. Just leaves. Well. The
great thing about blind Scott I've listened. He's listening to the.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Show for a year. Has been a great support of
the show. And you know, we don't agree on everything,
but that's fine.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Who cares. It's a dumb radio show.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
But the thing about blind Scott, and he's one of
these people that I've known in my life that wherever
he goes, there's like a cloud of trouble that follows
follows Blind Scott around. There's always there's always people upset,
usually blind people. People like look out for blind people.
They open the door right. They feel I don't know, pity,
or they feel like they got to help them out
a little bit because they got a tough, tough set
(33:22):
of cards in life, and so they try to help
him out.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
That's a reasonable sensible thing to do, right. Rational people
do that with blind.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Scott, though he's always ended up getting the shouting matches.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
It's just craziness anyway. It is the Ben Mahlor Show.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
As we press on, I did want to mention this
and we'll get to mallarly third degree.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
So Dwayne Wade told this wild story.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
He said that Lebron James the moment that Lebron turned
on the Miami Heat and this is what Dwayne Wade said,
The moment he realized that Lebron was likely to leave
Miami when they were getting to the finals every year
and winning championships, was on a chartered flight when pat
Riley was upset with the way the team was playing,
(34:03):
and according to Dwayne Wade, pat Riley took away Lebron
James cookies.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
I'm not making this up, Dwayne Wade said, Lebron.
Speaker 1 (34:18):
On every flight, every road trip, the heat would go on,
he would have two bags.
Speaker 2 (34:23):
One bag would be.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Meals prepared by his personal chef, and the other bag
was filled with chocolate chip cookies, which is I guess
Lebron's cheat food.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
He loves chocolate chip cookie. Who doesn't.
Speaker 1 (34:35):
Hey, so Lebron if he would need to chalk the
chip cookies all through the flight, and Riley was so
upset he took him away.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
And Dwayne Wade said that was the moment he.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
Realized that stuff was going the wrong way and pat
Riley was micro managing.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
And that was when Lebron he decided to leave the
heat because he couldn't have his chocolate chip cookie. All right,
here's the instant trivia. Here we go.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Despite playing in the modern era, Blank's one eighty six
lifetime batting average is the second lowest in al slash
NL history among players with two thousand at bats. The
only player worse is Bill Bergen, who batted one seventy again.
(35:18):
Despite playing in the modern era, Blank's one to eighty
six lifetime batting average the second lowest in the Big
League history among players with two thousand at bats.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
The correct answer, Guardians Catcher, former Indian Austin Hedges, Boston Hedges.
Speaker 2 (38:01):
He's played ten years.
Speaker 1 (38:02):
He's got a one to eighty six lifetime batting average.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Here we go, here, we're going.
Speaker 1 (38:06):
We'll go to a third degree.
Speaker 2 (38:11):
This is one Big Ben gets grilled cool.
Speaker 7 (38:15):
In a recent interview, Eagles GM Howie Roseman said that
Sakwon Barkley had the best season of a skill position
player in NFL history. Now, he pointed to Barkley having
seven rushes of sixty plus yards and that being more
than anyone in the history of the NFL, and and
the fact that he won a championship, And is he right?
Speaker 2 (38:34):
No, No, he's not.
Speaker 1 (38:35):
I'm gonna expand them this more later, but I disagree
the Barkley was wonderful. I feel like most of that
was against the Rams. I think he had four to
sixty plus yard runs against the Rams and the playoffs.
In the regular season, he was wonderful. Well, let's not
get crazy. It wasn't the greatest season of all time
by a non quarterback.
Speaker 7 (38:53):
Next, well, Aden Hutchinson may want a team up with
Miles Garrett and the Lions. The Lions GM Brad Holmes
said the team is quote probably not in a position
to add a star edge rusher in the immediate future. Ben,
do they need one or will the return of a
healthy Hutchinson be enough?
Speaker 1 (39:08):
No, that the defense sucked last year. Even with Hutchinson,
they weren't that great defensively. This is the window of
opportunity for the Lies now. They do have a handicap
with you'ared golf, so they need all the help they
can get because golf's not a big game quarterback. So yes,
this true cares about draft picks. Get a good team,
get good players.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
Next, Shake Gilless.
Speaker 7 (39:27):
Alexander is currently the front runner to win NBA MVP,
but Nikolay Jokic has been on a tear already has
more triple doubles than he did in his MVP seasons, Ben,
how do you think this Awards race plays out.
Speaker 1 (39:39):
Yeah, so you're asking me today today, I believe the
former Clipper Shay Yogas Alexander will win, and Jokicic has
won a couple of these things, so I think there's
voter fatigue.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
He will not win this year. How did we do
you pass this edition? That is a win.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
You get Putter on the guard and the Raiders still
in take Jail.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
He's still in Take Jail.
