He we go, it's all about the legal beagle here
in hour number four, at least at the start, as
we do hour three on this Tuesday, the twenty second
day of April, and we go into the court room.
How does the scorecard look in the Shannon Sharp he said?

Speaker 2 (00:20):
She said, legal drama? O rama? Also, where does this
Shannon Sharp lawsuit go? Now?

Speaker 1 (00:28):
Based on the latest public developments? And in addition, we'll
talk about the NFL draft as well, we'll pivot. We're
hearing there's a chance that Colorado quarterback Shadur Sanders could
fall out of the first round of the draft. Believe
it or not, we'll play Believe it or not, we'll
get to that. Have a wonderful Tuesday. Thank you, thank you,
thank you for listening to this podcast. Here it is

(00:49):
our number four. You mean the world to me. It's
our four, and I for an eye a text for
a lawsuit. Well come, in the beginning of another hour
of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the air
everywhere Polka pals as we echo your vibe unless we

(01:15):
don't coast to coast, border.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
To moter and beyond. On the vast.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
And scrumptiously powerful microphones of FSR, amminating live from the court,
the court of public opinion the Fox Sports Radio studios,
as we are hanging out with you side by side.
I know Oho Texo loves the court of public opinion,

(01:44):
and that is where we're gonna start.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Now.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
We could do another mal monologue about pro bouncy ball
as the road teams went to and zero in the
pro bouncy Ball playoffs.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Last night.

Speaker 1 (01:54):
You had the Detroit Pistons going into the Mecca with
all those celebrities getting their free ticket, court sided Madison
Square Garden and they saw the hometown Knickerbockers lose to
the Pistons and the Nuggets the altitude of Denver the
championship pedigree, and they lost the Clippers Clippers won. So

(02:16):
the road teams went last night. More NBA action today,
But we begin this hour with legal documents, because there's
nothing quite like a loss that we are big fans
in these parts of breaking down lawsuits.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
We'll get back to the pro bouncy.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Ball later, but we had a saucy lawsuit, really saucy,
something really good to dig your teeth into, good bathroom
reading on your phone and you're futson around.

Speaker 2 (02:41):
There on the toilet and you look at your phone.
Really good reading.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
So if they didn't see it or hear about it
or any of that, Shannon Sharp the Hall of Fame,
tight end, Shannon Sharp now professional gash bag podcaster blow
hard because everyone loves audio content. So anyway, Shannon Sharp
has been accused of of sexual assault rape of his

(03:08):
ex girlfriend. Big lawsuit does that's a big deal. That's
a that's a big deal. And the woman filed a
fifty million dollar lawsuit against the ESPN personality Shannon Sharp.
This was in the state of Nevada. The lawsuit was
filed that now, this happened while I was sleeping. By

(03:31):
the time I woke up, we had the yen to
the yang that had taken place. The woman who was
identified in the lawsuit as Jane Doe. Boy that Jane
Doe's in a lot of lawsuits, a lot of lawsuits.

Speaker 2 (03:43):
Anyway.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
The Jane Doe claimed that the former NFL player had
sexually assault heer in twenty twenty four and twenty twenty five,
according to the court papers, and she also claimed that
it was not her, but it was another woman that
was caught stooping Shannon Sharp. On that famous live stream
that was broadcast on social media back in September.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
She claims this woman.

Speaker 1 (04:08):
Jane Doe, that she was abused by Shannon Sharp there
in a year year long relationship. Okay, so that's pretty
bad stuff. That's pretty bad stuff. Well, Shannon Sharp had
a couple of options. He could have said nothing, that's
one option. Could have admitted it, which nobody does. Or

(04:31):
you could have decided to go on the offensive.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
And we know what he did. We know what he did.
Maybe you don't know what he did.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
But Shannon Sharp decided to fire back at the accusation
that he was accused of of.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
Rape, calling it bullshoi or something like that.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
It starts with a B first word B and then
the s there prominently displayed in the middle. On the
allegations bullshoy, manure, fertilizer.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
Pooh pooh, whatever you want to say.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
And he then responded by sharing some very very X
rated material on the text message that he is claiming
the Jane Doe sent to him to back up his
store as supporting evidence to back up the claims that

(05:23):
this is ridiculous, it's a bunch of nonsense and based
on the lawsuit and the text messages it's hard to
argue against that. Now, podcaster and commentator Shannon Sharp's lawyer
never heard of this lawyer, but this guy's seems pretty good.
He came back here and stated the suit was nothing

(05:45):
more than a blatant and cynical attempt to shake down
mister Sharp for millions of dollars, adding, the woman's claim
is filled with lies, distortions, and misrepresentation. Of course, this
is the attorney that Shannon Sharp's paying, So of course
the attorney for Shandon Sharp is going to say all
of those things because they are getting paid.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
The claim was the woman.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
I guess she originally wanted twenty five thousand dollars for
each cheek. Apparently she's got a nice dairy air the
Badonka donk, and she thought that was worth twenty five
thousand dollars each.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
Yah.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
Shannon apparently did not want to pay the twenty five
thousand dollars for each side of the tuckis, and therefore
she now wants fifty million dollars in the lawsuit. So
let us discuss the question for the esteem panel. How
does the scorecard look at this point as it's a
He said, she said situation between Shannon Sharp and Jane

(06:44):
Doe in the legal drama O Rama of the Day.
So I've got Crazy Ivan Academy Award and Lloyd Christmas
and we will combine all of these things together and
we are going to take a shower because after reading

(07:04):
the lawsuit and then reading the rebuttal, I need a
nice shower, is what I need.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Now.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
My first thought is this particular story based on the
Malards scorecard. Again, we're just basing this off the information
that we have. There's more information. We can change our
scorecard and act accordingly. But the story here has done
a one point eighty from the initial report that came
out to where we are right now. It went from
really cloudy with the chance of some really bad rain

(07:34):
for Shannon Sharp to a much different forecast, much different forecast. Now,
keep in mind the go to lawyer if you want
to sue a celebrity is involved in this, Tony Busby.
Remember he's the guy that took down the creepy quarterback there,
Deshaun Watson with all those lawsuits and has been involved
in several other high profile cases. Tony Busby, the high

(07:57):
falut in Texas attorney and and he's the one that
delivered the silacious lawsuit looking for the fifty million dollars
from Shannon Sharp, which I know Sharp's made a lot
of money, and I don't think he's got the fifty million.
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Maybe he does good for him.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
I think he's making a little more than your favorite
overnight gas bag, but what do I know. Anyway, rather
than go on defense, which would be like silent, I'm
just gonna be quiet and no one will pay attention
to it and it'll go away, he instead Shannon Sharp
he called an audible audible audible audible, he called the
crazy Ivan play. Now, the crazy ivan play is rarely

(08:40):
used by celebrities because most celebrities are worried about their image, right,
and they they're concerned about it. And this obviously is
an attack you or choose the rape. That's one of
the worst things you can do, right, and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
So we get that. But the crazy ivan.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Part of it is the rather quick, unexpected response here,
radical change of direction. So rather than huddle up and
regroup and just kind of say no comment, I will
address this. I've not seen the lawsuit. A lot of
these lawsuits I've never seen the lawsuit. I haven't looked
at it yet having a chance to read it, that
didn't happen, didn't go silent instead of protecting what's but

(09:20):
little is left of his image because he does I
think work for Mickey Mouse, like ESPN is in bed
with Disney, right, they're in the same bed and all that.
Shannon said, well, it's Disneyland. Let me turn on the
astro blaster here and I'll fly back. And so he
attached dozens, not just a couple, dozens of messages to

(09:40):
the statement released by his attorney, and they were all
the claim.

Speaker 2 (09:45):
Is sent by the accuser.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Now, if that's true, they would make even an only
fans model blush. Some of the messages on it. I
mean they are like next level, next level.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
All right.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Now, furthermore, so, where does the Shannon Sharp lawsuit go?
Now that's very early on. You had the he said,
she said? He said, right there, buzzby the attorney for
the Jane Doo. Now, to be fair, Shannon Sharp.

Speaker 2 (10:11):
Didn't name the woman. My goal here.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Is to avoid lawsuits, so I will not use her name.
But her name is all over the internet. I'm choosing
not to use it because mainly, I just don't want
to call for my boss today. So if you're really
interested in her name, Shannon Sharp made sure that the
world knows the woman's name and should if she lied
about this, everyone should know her name, and you know
that should should Actually she should wear the shame belt

(10:36):
and all that. But based on the release of the
text messages. Right of the text messages, it appears to
be game over for the lawsuit. Game over for the
lawsuit based on this, unless there is something else that
Tony Busby has in his back pocket, like some kind
of video.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
But even if there's video.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
The text messages appear to give the green light to
some really tard reactivity that is not legal in the
Bible belt.

Speaker 2 (11:05):
So I'm just putting that out.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
And Shannon Sharp, his lawyers here with this response essentially
tried this in the court of public opinion. This is
out there in the court of public opinion, and it's
crystal clear based on if that is accurate, the digital
evidence that was given as supporting evidence that this was
a consensual hanky panky, that they both were in this

(11:28):
thing together. They were going gaga for the na nah
and they were going for it, and so the implication
is that she I guess the implication the way I
read the lawsuit.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
This is my interpretation. Maybe I'm wrong on this.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
The woman was like the side check for Shannon Sharp.
And then when he fed up because he's like, I
guess she doesn't know how to use technology, and he
broadcast him stooping the other woman, she got upset the
way I interpreted the lawsuit, and then she decided to
sue him for fifty million dollars because I guess she

(12:06):
thought she was I had exclusive rights to the goods,
and then he was sharing, as I.

Speaker 2 (12:15):
Think one of the lawsuits said, the sauce.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
She very graphically described the sauce and what it would
do and what it would make, and the secret ingredient
and all that, and it's all there in the text messages.
But that's what it sounded like. But based on these messages,
if these are accurate from Shannon Sharp, that is good afternoon,
good evening, and good night.

Speaker 2 (12:35):
The lawsuit is over.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
You can crank up the Academy Award winning song from
a million years ago and standing Sharp can start singing.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
Zipity Do Dah zippity day.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
As far as that lawsuits concerned, because that has no
legs to stand on all.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
Right.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
Now, last thing, we are a couple of days away
from the NFL Draft, a couple of days away from
the NFL Draft. We don't promote it enough. We don't
promote the draft at all. Now the big story is
no story. There's been no trades. We still haven't anituds.
You made it through another day with no trades the
first round picks. Now it's still possible right up until

(13:11):
the beginning of the draft and throughout the first round
there'll be some kind of trades. Now, the big story
over the last couple of days, as we turned the
page here, the big news is we're hearing now there
is a chance that Schadur Sanders, who's going to have
his number retired from Colorado. Act like you've been there before, boys,
but Chennier Sanders is going to have his number retired

(13:33):
and he at this point could fall out of the
first round of the draft all together. Believe it or not,
Shuldeur Sanders, Colorado quarterback spawn of Dion, could fall out
of the first round of the twenty twenty five NFL Draft,
which is on Thursday. So this is a Lloyd Christmas

(13:54):
type response. Right when you see the story saying that
there's a chance it's so you're saying, there's answer, Yeah,
of course there's a chance.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
It's the multiverse.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
There's a dimension where Shoulder Sanders is not draft in
the first round. There's also a dimension. It's like dumb
and dumber. There's a there's a dimension where should Ar
Sanders is the number.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
Three overall pick, number three.

Speaker 1 (14:18):
So that's out there, right, and it's a total toss up,
and there's a shot that he doesn't go number three,
and he goes to the Saints at number nine, and
then that doesn't happen. The Saints are like they're playing
playing a game of poker and it's all a bluff
and they don't want Shouldhar Sanders and then free falling,
free falling out of the first round of the draft.

(14:40):
And then there's that awkward thing where you get like
mel Kiper saying, oh, he's the top player on the board,
although I don't even think that's the case. So that's
the big NFL Draft story of the day is that
Shoulder Sanders falling down, which I always get a kick
out of because like who's falling and who's rising. It's
like nothing's changed. They haven't play the game. There's no

(15:02):
workouts going on. There's a few meetings, like no one's
falling or rising. Like whatever decisions you've had, you've had.
But you got to get clicks. It's all about the
click of the click. And just like we have to
get down lows and listeners and all that stuff.

Speaker 2 (15:16):
That's the game. That's the name of the game.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
All right, we will press on. We'll take your calls
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. There is a
line open if you want to be part eight seven
seven nine nine six six three sixty nine. I have
been requested via a listener that they like the the
Where the Money is a game that we play where
we look at where the money is in the upcoming
playoff game.

Speaker 2 (15:39):
So we'll do that. We've got some.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Fuzzy math and popping the cherry. What is that about?
We'll go there as well.

Speaker 2 (15:46):
We'll get to all of that and we will do
it next.

That's a Bronco fan. Your comments can and be used

(17:03):
social media posts are open to interpretation. Yeah, and now
back to the talk.

Speaker 2 (17:13):
All right, here we go, Here we go.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Todd Wrightson s has been I'm pretty sure they retired
Sheder Sanders jersey the other day at the buff spring game.
Why on God's green Earth wouldn't they do it at
a regular season game this fall? Because Dion probably said
it would help his draft and total basked their record
was thirteen to eleven in his two years.

Speaker 2 (17:34):
I thought they.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Announced they're going to retire his number. I don't know
they actually did. I don't think they did. I think
they are going to wait and do that at some
point down the line. What else do we have? Not
a burner, right, Sin, says Clipper Darryl is sad that
you don't have a clippers nickname.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
He is suggesting.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
The Shepherd of Shipheads says, not a burn how about
not a funny? Not a funny coming late night drug
tester says, I'm surprised that earlier Jerome and Charleston was
more interested in the Shannon Sharp lawsuit and not the
possible legal trouble facing his favorite Pat McAfee.

Speaker 2 (18:20):
Yeah, yeah, that was rare.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
It's hard for Jerome to make it through a phone
call without ripping Pat McAfee. He's got some kind of
beef with him.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Ferg Dog has ruled. He says Darryl's phone malfunctioning is
not his fault. He knew all the answers. Therefore, Ben
and Darryl are the winners of the game show from
last hour, So that's Ferg Dog. He has ruled on that.
So that is another win.

Speaker 4 (18:43):
That'd be great if Dog had any saying anything whatsoever.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Now he is the other than what.

Speaker 4 (18:48):
The inside of your colon looks like.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
He is the voice of reason. There's no need to
be jealous of that.

Speaker 6 (19:06):
By the way, I just went back and I went
because you know, yes, he sparked my interest with that
monologue and I read those those texts.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
Mesterges interesting. She likes very great. I mean what woman thinks.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
I mean, I know women are proud of their bodies,
and you know, women are beautiful. What I appreciate women
by twenty five thousand per cheek, I mean that seems
pretty pricey.

Speaker 7 (19:26):
I know a surgeon in Miami for three.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Thousand fifty grand for a tuck us.

Speaker 5 (19:33):
That is it.

Speaker 6 (19:34):
I mean I was more shocked by what she wanted
to do to his cheeks.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
Well, she wanted the secret sauce there, coop. She had
it all planned out.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Man, she was ready to go.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
He's wild.

Speaker 2 (19:50):
Yeah, man, he's uh. They're going for it. They are,
they're absolutely they're enjoying it. But man, how surprised. I
wish you could have been in the room.

Speaker 1 (19:59):
When Buzzby called up, the woman said, I got good
news and bad news.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
The good news is we announced the lawsuit. The bad
news the badness.

Speaker 1 (20:08):
He's got all your text message, everything you've ever said
in like you know, you're oh my god.

Speaker 7 (20:16):
All the very consensual messages.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
Exactly.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yes, it appeared to be she was completely on the
team naughty.

Speaker 8 (20:24):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
He was enjoying it. Not that there's nothing wrong with it.
There's nothing wrong with it. I mean, geez.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
Anyway, one of my favorite things about turning the page.
One of my favorite things from the NFL is how
they they have this this thing that they do. It's
like North Korea or Russia, you know how like these
communist countries they have events, they hought parades unless they're
like ten million people at the parade or whatever. The
NFL when it comes to the draft, they've been doing

(20:55):
this a long time and it's been about ten years
maybe longer where they take the draft on the road,
and so they make a big deal about this and
there's always big turn us.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
I think one year they said.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
There was like seven hundred and seventy five thousand people
at the draft.

Speaker 2 (21:09):
I think that was in Detroit.

Speaker 1 (21:11):
So the Draft is in green Bay this week on Thursday,
and they are claiming this is so good. They're claiming
that how many people you see this, Lorraine? How many
people go around the room. How many people do you
think are the NFL is saying, don't cheat?

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Coop?

Speaker 1 (21:29):
I see you googling don't cheat. How many people does
the NFL say will be at the Draft in green Bay, Wisconsin.
I've been to Green Bay. There's not a lot in
Green Bay.

Speaker 7 (21:40):
It's a little bar. Yeah, I'm gonna say thirty thirty thousand.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
All right, what about you, Cooper?

Speaker 1 (21:48):
How many people do you think the NFL says will
be the Draft on Thursday and this weekend?

Speaker 2 (21:53):
This weekend?

Speaker 4 (21:54):
One hundred thousand one.

Speaker 2 (21:55):
That's a lot.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
One hundred thousand. I don't think the infrastructure could save that.
You just bort that the NFL is estimating for two
hundred and fifty thousand fans at the draft.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
It is so ridiculous.

Speaker 9 (22:09):
Does anyone believe this?

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Like, is there anyone dumb enough to believe? No?

Speaker 4 (22:13):
Was there even that many people in Wisconsin?

Speaker 1 (22:15):
Well, I mean if everyone hotels and places can accommodate exactly. Yeah,
there's not enough hotels. I mean the teams that go
to play the Packers have to stay in Appleton because
there's nothing in Green Bay. And even in Appleton, my
brother lives there. There's not much going on in Appleton. Okay,
car camping bean Snappers there.

Speaker 6 (22:33):
You go, Coops friv when he thinks it's the first
strip club I ever went to.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
It's an Appleton, Wisconsin, big fan of bean Snappers.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
They're claiming a one hundred million dollar economic boost because
of the draft.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
It's just I just laugh at this every time.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
I remember one year I was doing the Weekend Overnight
Show years ago and the NFL had an event in
London and they said the attendant and it was like
it was like eighty thousand people and they included We're
pretty sure they included everyone that lived in the in
the flats around around that part of London. They're like,

(23:10):
there's anybody that happened to be there they.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
Included in the attendance. But anyway, there it's.

Speaker 1 (23:14):
Always fun, fuzzy math, fun with numbers and all that. Well, listen,
whether there's ten people there or two hundred fifty thousand people.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
It's very Yeah, we all hated it, and some of
the hosts would put like a shirt over the camera

in the Tony Bruno era. It's an outrage. As he
would say about Bruno, Tony's what a legend that guy is, man,
what a legend. He built this place. Tony Bruno started

(25:15):
ESPN Radio, Fox Sports Radio and like one other network.
He's like the OG of sports talk radio, the great
He's living in floor.

Speaker 4 (25:23):
It was the voice of Madden it one.

Speaker 1 (25:25):
Yeah, he was the Madden voice. Love me, Tony Bruno.
Tony is a great guy. Anyway, that being said, so
popping the train now, there's a rumor in the hallways here, Lorena,
is it true that you have never been to an
NBA game.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Is this accurate, Lorraine?

Speaker 7 (25:41):
Yes, this is This is very accurate.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Is it also true that you will be attending your
first NBA game in the next twenty four hours?

Speaker 2 (25:50):
Is that also accurate?

Speaker 7 (25:52):
Yes, that is also accurate.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Okay, and your level of excitement. You're going to skid
Row to see a game, is that correct? You're going
down skid Road, Yes, yes, you are.

Speaker 7 (26:04):
We're going to be uh.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
The LA Live area is very nice.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
Okay, just don't park your car anywhere near there. You're fine, fine,
very nice. And so you're going to going to be
hanging out down there. Lakers are playing the timber Wolves,
and you and Kooper both beg Yes, So I will
be slaving away riding monologues and you will be both
attending the.

Speaker 7 (26:25):
We will be getting in person, yes, moments at the game,
which I think person it's very special for the show
to happen.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
Yes, very important. And will you be free loading or like,
do you have good seats?

Speaker 2 (26:36):
Like where you do you know.

Speaker 7 (26:37):
Where season seats seats?

Speaker 4 (26:39):
We're in the two hundred section in the corner of
the court, corner of the.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
Court near the Minnesota bench or the Clipper or the
Laker bench the Lakers.

Speaker 6 (26:50):
It is on the opposite side of the benches, but
on the the Minnesota side.

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Okay, are you going to scream something down to Anthony
Edwards about the size of his his cobra?

Speaker 2 (27:05):
Pull out the cobra, Anthony.

Speaker 6 (27:07):
But I imagine he's he's probably not lying about that
because considering how many baby mamas he has, there's there's
too many women that could refute his claims if it
were not true.

Speaker 7 (27:20):
Can you bring signs to games? Still? Can I, like
if I make a big whiteboard sign that has a cobra?

Speaker 4 (27:26):
I don't think he can bring a whiteboard, but maybe
like if you wanted like a.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
Role, do you want to bring like a chalkboard there
in he can. He's just notes.

Speaker 4 (27:39):
That sounds like a good idea.

Speaker 1 (27:41):
I would argue that Anthony Edwards, the reason he has
been able to impregnate so many women is rather than
the size of his Johnson, it would be the two
hundred million dollars. I think that gives you access more
than the size of the orse.

Speaker 4 (27:56):
I'm not saying that's why.

Speaker 6 (27:57):
I'm just saying there's too many If if he is lying,
there's too many women that could come out onto social
media and be like, no.

Speaker 4 (28:06):
Eh, that is.

Speaker 6 (28:11):
Because I mean his baby mamas aren't exactly a fans
of them, right, and you know they're well.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
They were for a night.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
That's a good point.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Appreciated his work for one night there. So uh, man, well,
have a good time. That fun. You getting there early,
you're gonna get the full experience.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
So you get a lot of traffic, you game your
rush hour, LA, you got to get there early.

Speaker 6 (28:34):
Yes, we hoped, We hoped to get there early. Okay,
I'm going to well, I don't know. I think the
rain is just gonna meet us there.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
But bring your money for parking, Lorraine. It's very especially.

Speaker 6 (28:45):
I suggested that that she meet me here at the
studio and then we carpolled over there so she could
avoid the parking.

Speaker 7 (28:52):
Fees and I have an extra forty five minutes of driving.

Speaker 1 (28:56):
Yeah, yeah, you save forty bucks or fifty bucks.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
Probably more than that, honestly. Yeah, I don't even know
how much they charged.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
But what I would do street parking, ok, okay, I'll
tell you a funny story about street parking.

Speaker 2 (29:09):
Abou street parking.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
The year was two thousand, I believe it was two thousand,
the Lakers were playing the Portland Trailblazers. It was an
NBC Christmas game. I was there covering the game. Yes,
this was like the jail Blazers, I believe. I think
Scottie Pippen was still on the team.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
And Rashid Wallace.

Speaker 1 (29:27):
Parked my car. I still remember. I parked my car
on Hope Street. Hope Street, and uh covered the game,
came back to my car, got free parking you know,
was on the street. Saved you no Christmas, No, they
didn't charge on the meters. I got back to my
car and I clicked the thing to open the unlock
the car and some glass fell down. Oh yeah, on Christmas.

(29:49):
My car was broken into right there. And good luck
trying to find a cop on Christmas. There's not a
lot of them working. So I finally tracked down this
LAPD guy who was really annoyed that I was like
trying to bother him.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
I don't know what he's doing. He's driving around.

Speaker 1 (30:03):
So the cop was like, hey, listen, you're right near
the precinct. You got to fill out a report. I'm
very busy. There was hardly the end of its working here.
You got to fill out the sport. So the cops like,
you gotta go, So he told me where the police
station was. The police station, by the way, I don't
know if it's changed, but at that time, the closest
police station to what was then called Staple Center was.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
On like next to skid Rough. Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
So I found the police station and I parked right
in front. Got a great parking place. Keep in mind,
my window is still shattered and I have stuff that
my bags from the gate. So I go into the
police station and these cops are like, yeah, they're overwhelmed.
There's not enough that I'm working. There's a lot of
stuff going on, and it was kind of a cold night,
and you think, La, you don't think it was like

(30:48):
a movie from like the nineteen eighties. Across the street.
I can still close my eyes and see this thing
right across the street from the police station. There was
a trash can and they had lit it that're on
fire so they could They were rubbing their hands like
some nineteen eighties like movie or something. It was really bizarre,
and it wasn't even that cold, but they were It
was cool, but it wasn't cold. So I went in

(31:10):
and the guy came out. He said, all right, give
me a few minutes to grab the clipboard to come
look at the car. So I'm with the cop. We
walk out of the police station down to the car,
and as I get down the steps of the precinct
there is a homeless dude who's half in my car
seeing if you can find anything else in front of

(31:30):
the pot. Yes, but that's based on free parking, Lorraine,
I got free parking.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
Oh gosh.

Speaker 1 (31:36):
But if you don't leave anything in your car, you'd
probably be all right. You know, I made the mistake
of leaving stuff in my car. I didn't realize.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
I was a lot younger and left up.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
And you're leave anything in the car if you hide it,
they always say hide it right, and.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
You're okay, And you know usually you're okay. I didn't
hide it.

Speaker 7 (31:54):
This is right out in the open. Well, did you
have tinted windows?

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Not limos like you have, not, not the full limo
tent like you have. Anyway, it is the Ben Mallor Show,

Speaker 10 (32:37):
Oh yeah, Well when you sit here on the phone
for over an hour, you know what kind of happened.

Speaker 2 (32:43):

know I forced you.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
We actually when you call up, you're imprisoned to stay
on hold.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
That is correct.

Speaker 10 (32:51):
No, I've never been in prison when I've called you.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
That's not true. We actually force you to stay on hold.
We do not allow you to hang up. If you
hang up, the police will come.

Speaker 10 (33:00):

or jail, I'll call you.

about the Mavericks and Don Chick being overweight and or
Luca whatever they want.

Speaker 2 (33:59):

I was highlighting all of the stories that have been
leaked to trash Luca since he was traded.

Speaker 10 (34:05):
Yes, now here, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit a triple
and I walk in the park right now. Because what
happened was Shack never showed up in shape, so the
Lakers can handle that.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
And then the well, the Lakers actually got rid of
Shack because they when they got rid of him, they
claimed he was out of shape. One of the when
they traded him Miami, they said he was out of shape.

He got three championships out of him, so that's good.
