(01:11):
one less now welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the
air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
As we drop in for a late night chat and
we provide a voice for the voiceless of the night.
Coast to coast, border to border and beyond. On the
mast and noisily powerful microphones of fs are em monating
live from the rounds, the Championship Rounds of Virgil Virtual
(01:46):
of verbal pugilism, of hanging out together here from the
world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by Ed
from Dayton had a chance to meet Ed from Dayton,
Ohio's in here hanging out.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
With us in a previous episode of the show.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
This portion of The Ben Maler Show on Fox is
made possible in part by our friends.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
At tire Rack That's Right.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
For over forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
I know Big Greg and Iowa, ferg Dog and the
Burner Account all love that ship fast and freed back
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation, tire rack dot Com, the Way that
(02:30):
tire buying show b I know JC from Sherman Oaks
excited about that as well. There's one thing that is
universally loved by the Malord militia more than anything else
that we do.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I've been doing radio for a long time. The one
thing that every man, woman and child.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That listens to the Overnight Show loves is when we
are attacked by gremlins. There is nothing that brings more
joy to the world than when the gremlins attack. I've
never seen anything like it. People they cheer for the gremlins.
It's wild, wild and crazy. Anyway, I leave this hour
from the high speed sports wire.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
As my old mentor.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
In San Diego used to say, as we try not
to throw a wobbler, so we head to the Bayo
as the transaction wire heating up. If you did not
hear about this, perhaps not well if you missed it.
The New Orleans Saints have fired wide receiver Brandon Cooks.
He will become a free agent, assuming he is not
(03:29):
claimed on waivers. I don't know anyone would claim him,
as his career is in ashes. At this point, Cooks
asked to be fired. And the team that made the
paper bag famous the team that's now back to the ains.
There in naulence and no, if you dig a little deeper,
Cooks had a bunch of incentives in his contract for
things like receptions and touchdowns and playing time and receiving yards.
(03:54):
Would you like to take a guess how many of
those incentives.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
He reached this year? Yeah? None? None. That is a
body blow, body blow, body blow.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
He finished his time in New Orleans, his second run
with the Saints, with nineteen catches for one hundred and
sixty five yards and as many touchdowns as.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
You and I scored. None. All right, so that is
a good jumping off point.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Let us discuss this is post trade deadline. This is
a player that the Saints tried to trade nobody wanted.
So the question does former Saints wide receiver Brandon Cooks
budge the needle at all? Does he budge the needle
at all? My observations on this. I've got Alan Wrench,
(04:39):
Elmer's Brand Ambassador, and The Big Lebowski, a classic movie.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
And we will.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Combine all of these things together, and we are going
to hire an exterminator to kill the gremlins.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Is what we're going to do, all right. Rab a
punch right to the gut, right to the gut is.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
What we're gonna do, all right, So number one, I
said number why, yes, all right? So I would say
it's not a zero. The needle moves a smidge, just
a smidge. This is not clearly Puka Nakoua. It's not
(05:17):
Justin Jefferson or Jamar Chase spitting a loogie in your face.
This is a depth piece, that's all this is. He's
a receiver, that is. I don't even know how serviceable
he is. You put him in the huddle, he won't
hurt you. He's obviously not the focal point Brandon Cooks
of anyone's offense at this point.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
You know what he is.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
He's like an Alan wrench. You know everyone's got that
junk drawer. He's the Alan wrench in the junk drawer.
You keep it around because you might need it. It
could be useful, but you're not building the house with it.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Cooks might be the Johnny Cash of the NFL, because
he has been everywhere where a man, He's traveled every
road in this year football land he has. He started
with the Saints, went to the Patriots, was traded again
to the Rams Texans.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Now he's gone back to the New Orleans Saints and
he's on the market again. So that's one, two, three, four, five,
five teams. He's thirty two years old. He just turned
thirty two.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Not that long ago.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
He's got more luggage tags than Delta Airlines has available.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
And this dude has been traded so many times.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Imagine the Marriotte points because when you change teams during
the year, and he's done that a couple of times,
you end up, you know, living in an hotel most
of the time. And so this production of Cooks at
one point very productive.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
That's what teams wanted him.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
And he has been fading like the sun off in
the horizon there, fading down, and you're not getting the
twenty seventeen vintage of Brandon Cooks. That model has been discontinued.
Yards per target down at the very peak, which was
actually twenty sixteen, he averaged nine point three yards. Now
he's in the mid sixes this season. His legs not young,
(07:13):
not young, over a thousand snaps a year. Eventually, the
mileage it affects the injine quality of the engine, and
so what you're signing is a high end number three receiver.
Wink Wink a situational number two receiver, possibly in the
red zone.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
You can get something out of him.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Occasionally he'll go into hot tup time machine Brandon Cooks,
and he'll burn one down the sidelines. But Cooks does
not change the trajectory of your season.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
He does not.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
He's there for depth. He's a nice player. You could
talk about what he used to be. He doesn't move
the needle, just a little smidge. That's it now, Page
two that say, we all know one of the great
things about life.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
If you don't believe that, go to like a good
Will store or any of any of the stores where
they sell you know what one of my friends, you say,
dead people's stuff. You know, people that die and they
donate their stuff when they're gone, and people run to
buy that stuff at thrift shops and all that.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
So again, one manstraction of the man's structure.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
So we know that this is not a dynamic playmaker
at this point, but he's going to continue to hammer away.
And clearly he made the decision that there's somebody that
wants you don't ask to be fired from the job
that you have. If you have nothing else out there
that would be that would be ridiculous. So the question
I have now deputized you as the career counselor for
(08:43):
the ballplayer. Okay, so the question where should wide receiver
Brandon Cooks take his talents.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The wandering wide out and that.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Big suitcase to finish the season and most likely his career.
So after eight minutes long deliberation of the available options,
there are two primetime landing spots and sleeper team, Sleeper Team,
Sleeper Team now at the very top. And this is
not a list for Terry and England. This is not
(09:15):
a list. It's Big Ben's big board, which is nothing
like a list. It's Big Ben's big board. And the
first up here. Here we go, Buffalo, Here we go, Buffalo.
Josh Allen, the Bazooka arm An.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
MVP season a year ago. What's not to like?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
And the Bills don't have much at the wide receiver position.
There's some reports out here that Keon Coleman, who was
benched for malfeasance last week, is going to be benched
again for the game coming up here on Thursday night
in Houston. So Keon Coleman's in the doghouse. He's in
the very back of the doghouse. Heck, he's not, He's
(09:59):
only the bat back of the doghouse. He's in the
basement of the dog house. Well, they'll have a basement
of the doghouse.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Well, yes they do.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Now He's in the basement of the doghouse. So they
need help there, And that would be a smart football
fit in theory. Josh Allen the deep ball, and every
once in a while you could get a throwback highlight
from Brandon Cooks maybe once a game or one and
a half times on average per game. Now, if not
(10:25):
Western New York, do I hear Kansas City? You can
go there and Andy Reid and loves a good lottery ticket.
And Brandon Cooks can enjoy the Ben Mallard chicken fingers
at the Landing in.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Liberty, Missouri. Delicious food. Rashie Rice is the man. He's
the man.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Although they didn't throw to a much in the second
half of the game against Denver, but.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Rashie Rice, that's it. That's all.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
They certainly could use another grown up in the room
there at the wide receiver position, a savvy veteran who
knows how to line up and can run the route
or root and uh and not be worried.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
About social media. And Cook's playing with Mahomes every once
in a while.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Why not give it a shot, right, Mahomes likes throwing
to old dudes.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
He throws to Kelsey all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Now, the slaeper Team, slaper Team, the Inswers.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Petsburg, don't don't laugh, do not know, don't laugh.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Mike Tomlin has a PhD in veteran rehab. He does,
and he loves football guys. I love my football guys.
Oh yeah, absolutely, the tape war his lunch pale grinders
and all that. So Aaron Rodgers at this point needs
all the help he can get. Don't have that much
(11:45):
to get the DK Metcalf Obviously, he's a great, great player.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
There's not much else there.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Now we realize in a league that is absolutely obsessed,
completely obsessed with youngness, right, you know you want youth,
it's it's forty times, it's are you under the age
of twenty five? A guy like Brandon Cooks Still there's
still a place for a guy like that, even though
(12:12):
he's running on fumes. At this point, Brandon Cooks is
an Elmer's Glue brand ambassad.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
He's a glue guy. Glue guy, glue guy. Yep.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
He's a good guy, which means he's not that good
anymore but used to be good and has some redeeming
qualities that makes you a glue guy.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
He's a glue guy. He's not gonna again, not gonna
change your season. He won't ruin it.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
And there's a chance he actually is value added. It's
kind of like Cooks think of him like if he
was a phone, he would be an iPhone, but he'd
like be like an iPhone seven. Now, nobody needs an
iPhone seven. Not exciting. It still works.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
You don't need it. You know, you want the newest one.
But it's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
You know it's it still works and all the apps
work for the most part, and all that nothing to
really complain about, all right, now, final point. We go
to the land Cleveland to be exact where Shadur Sanders announced,
I know you're very concerned about the new quarterback there
in Cleveland. Should announced that he is excited. He's excited
(13:17):
to make his first career start for the Brownies versus
the Raiders. He said, quote, I'm just excited for everything.
I feel like I'm the guy.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I know I'm the guy. Sharder Sanders said, that's the
money quote, the spawn of Dion.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
He's going to fill in for the concussed Dylan Gabriel
who is currently well, he's.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Taking some advill he's got.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
A migraine headache from the concussion protocol and all that.
So the question on this one Shardur Sanders saying that
he feels like he's the guy for the Browns.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Are you okay with this? Are you okay with so?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
This is on brand and as a struggling overnight gas bag.
Struggling overnight gas bag would not have it any other way.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
The thing that I am most.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Impressed with from paying attention to the story around Shirdhar
Sanders is how powerful the Dion Caucus is in the NFL.
Now we knew Dion was a star back in the day,
in the eighties and the nineties and all that, it's
been a minute. The amount of influence that Dion Sanders
has from all the media jobs and all his buddies,
(14:32):
his ex players that are all doing meathead podcasts and
all it's wild.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I think this is people.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Talk about the most powerful political party, well, Democrats, Republican
number three, the Dion Caucus, My goodness.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Prime time politics. Really it's it's wild.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
But as far as sure, this is showmanship, it's arrogance,
it's bravado. It's a modern day Big Life Bowski, one
of the great movies. It's an old movie, but I
highly recommend it. And in this case, you've got Shaddar
Sanders who's announcing to you.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
And to me and the world.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
He says, hey, listen, I'm the dude or his dudonis
or el duderino, and if you're not into the whole
brevity thing and all that.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Stuff, but he's got swagger.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
But you know, hopefully he has his own advil as well,
because life hits you fast in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
We know that. And good luck.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
You're not gonna get a parade here because your dad
was a great player in a different generation of the NFL.
And we'll see how Shouter does. Hard to imagine he'll
be any worse than he was in the opening performance there.
But the test will be when it's third down at
eight and you've got Max Crosby chasing you down like
(15:50):
a junkyard dog.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
What are you gonna do. What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
So the Raiders though, if you think of this like
a restaurant. I've had a few friends of over the
years that have gotten into restaurants and they always say, well,
you open the restaurants, a million things that can go wrong.
You always have to have a soft launch before you
have the official official launch. And soft launch is normally
friends and family, friends and family, and then you know,
maybe somebody will come in and just happen to be
(16:17):
there and look at your restaurant, and you want everyone
in the kitchen to know what they're doing and everything
like that, and you want to have.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Just a small crowd, not too busy.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And in the NFL, if you're a quarterback, you want
to start against the Raiders because that defense is cotton
candy other than mac Crosby cotton candy. We like cotton candy,
but you don't really need, you know, functioning teeth to
eat cotton candy. And as cam Ward would say, total ass,
total ass. So as for sure say it's the Browns
are praying that they get the razzle dazzle, and not
(16:49):
just the frazzle. They want that razzle dazzle. The damage
control I go back to the Dion caucas with circle
back to the Dion caucas It's happened. Anyone and everyone
who has Dion's phone number has magically blamed, among other things,
the offensive line, the play calling, the weather, the lack
(17:12):
of practice reps. I believe mercury being in retrograde has
also been blamed. We'll have to check with our astrology insider.
Some kind of cosmic event in the Farmer's almanac, and
essentially anything but Shader. He is not culpable at all.
He gets a full pardon from the Dion Caucus. And
you can tell who exactly is in Dion's DMS who's
(17:35):
getting text messages from Dion based on.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
How loud they are capping for his kid. It's wild.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
No shame, no shame that there was a point, you know,
I got again, I'm getting old, But there was a
point where people would never take part in that because
it was so embarrassing. Now they're lining up to wear
knee pads with Dion's logo on it to support the kid.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It's wild.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
We got generation after generation of excuses, and all of that,
of course, is prologued. And if you say you're the
guy if you say that, then you go out and
be the guy. You know, do I expect him to
play well? No, although, boy, the Raiders are so they're
so bad. I mean, the NFL generally does expose the fraudsters,
(18:27):
the con artists right faster than Dion's dad can send
out a message saying, here are the talking points for you.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
On television, here are the.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Talking points for you, you insider, a woman who just
repeats whatever I tell you, that kind of thing, because

Gut her Gunner. Gunner has been attacked by gremlins.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Is he there. I don't hear him snoring, so nor.
That's that's a tell. If they're snoring, they're sleeping. He's
got it.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
He's just doesn't have sleep appy like everyone else that
calls the show.
Speaker 2 (25:22):
When they fall asleep, you get that sleep apnea thing.
It sounds younger.
Speaker 6 (25:26):
Maybe not there yet.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Oh he is he younger? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Man?
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Is he a kid caller? I don't think he's a kid,
I mean younger.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
If I had to guess, just based off of a
couple of times I screen just call, I would go
like nineteen twenty.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Oh, okay, that's prime demo. That's big demo. That's we
need that demo. Okay, that's terrible.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Well, Gunner. I hope you're sleeping well, Gunner, and we
thank you for listening, and I know you. Maybe we'll
go back and hear the podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
Big fans of your work, Gunner, you're my favorite gunner
other than the gunner in Minnesota that's likes to annoy me.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Other than that, let's.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Go to Jed who fled by the Way eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox. If you want to jump
online eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, we'll get
to a different kind of Olympic hero. And also later
on this I guess some other stuff to get to,
including make a run for the border. And right now
though we say hello to Jed who fled Hello Jed Ben.
Speaker 7 (26:20):
Sometimes I catch up to you and a binge listening
of formats and he's funny you mentioned the Olympics because, uh,

You were talking about starting a housekeeping Olympics, dude, and
you were unreasonably excited about that. Explain your yes, Yes,

or South Korea. I don't know. That's why we have
the Olympics.

It's not the same.
Speaker 7 (29:01):
You get a heck of a job. But ask me

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Man alive? All right?
Speaker 7 (30:46):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Doc Dan in Minnesota, who found the show wall in
the hospital, says maybe Lorena got hanta virus from Mickey
Mouse wallet Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
JE see that that was not the weather. The weather,
it's not the weatherzzling. I'm gonna I don't want to.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I don't want to Jax myself. I'm being a pretty
good streak. I had like three or four months where
I was really at a viral thing that was all
messed up, remember, and my voice was all messed up.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
And that was right, Oh yeah, it was. It was terrible.
And and it.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Was like I had so many live reads and I
had what they whacked Eddy, and so I had like
live reads and it was like just it was the
the Olympics for talk radio with all the live commercials
and all that.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
But my god, but I recommend garlic.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Have I told you my garlic therapy that has helped
me so many times when you have like vocal.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No, no, what I do?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And I heard this from an old DJ when I
when I started in radio in San Diego, and the
guy told me I was very guldible. He was probably
full of crap, but it's worked. And let me just
put his disclaimer out for the lawyers. You should never
take medical advice from an overnight talk radio host. You
should never do it. You should consult with medical professionals.
You should never take anything that is said on the
(32:08):
radio as the gospel. But what I have done, and
I learned this from DJ, when you have like laryngitis,
or your voice is.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Kind of going out a little bit. There's something you
can take a piece of raw.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
Garlic, like a little clove, a little head of a
clove of garlic, and you cut it in half, and
you put half on one side of your mouth and
half on the other, and you get you do this
before you go to bed, and you kind of suck
out the juices.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Of the garlic, the very potent garlic, and it'll go
to your throat and it will kill help kill the infection.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
In your throat.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
And if you do it, if you time it right,
it will actually take care of the issue and it'll
certainly make it easier for you to communicate. I have
done it, and a couple of times I missed the
mark is there's only there's a window when you have
to do it, and if you miss the window, it
doesn't really do much.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
I might have missed the window.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
You know, the Egyptians sixth side, I understand, I.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Understand, But the Egyptians worshiped garlic, you know the old country.
In the Old Country, garlic was nature's antibiotic, that was medicine.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Does a bird did you keep it in your cheek?
Did you know in antiquity they did not have cvs.
In antiquity, I did not know this. They didn't have Walgreens.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Had they had these medical people that recommended garlic.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
They say, oh, it's wrong with you.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
And this, I mean, this goes way back since at
least like the thirteen hundreds, they say, and so probably
before that, you know, you know, I wouldn't be surprised
if t Rex sucked on a big thing of garlic.
You know, the dinosaurs loved garlic as well.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Maybe if they did, they'd still be here. What about Neanderthals.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Neanderthals also loved the garlic, you know, they warded off
the evil stuff and all that.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
And no, you're not okay, just saying, you know who
doesn't love garlic? Who's that Dracula? Yeah, that's right. Vampires.
Vampires do not like garlic. They do not.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
It's one of the side effects that happens that immortality
and all that.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
The vampires.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
It's just terrible for them. So but anyway, and they
don't like sunlight either, right, they.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Don't like sunlight.
Speaker 6 (34:23):
I could never be a vampire.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Very harmful for vampires. It's not good anyway. It is
the Ben Mahler show. So a different kind of Olympic hero.
How about this talk about this guy a few months back.
Ryan Wedding is his name. I was an Olympic snowboarder
and he is now on the most most ten person
most wanted list of the FBI. He has become a
(34:47):
drug kingpin. He's living in Mexico. He remains at large,
and he has been charged in the death of a
federal witness. The FBI had a big news conference big
shots there in DC.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I think it was there.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Yeah, and this guy was in the Olympics as a
snowboarder back and he's a Canadian.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Non American guy.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Oh god, but he is now among the FBI's ten
most wanted fugitives, wanted for murder of a federal witness.
And he allegedly placed a bounty on a witness's head
and he believed that if the death of this guy
would result in the dismissal of criminal charges. Turns out
(35:35):
the FBI said not so fast. This guy was in
the two thousand and two Salt Lake City Olympics and
they claimed the US Attorney General claims that he now
runs the most prolific and violent drug trafficking organization in
the world. Well that's pretty but you talk about reaching
the top of your profession. I mean, if you're going
to be a drug dealer, you might as well go
(35:55):
for the kingpin status. And he's doing that. Organization was
consible for imputting sixty metric tons of coke per year
into La from Mexico.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
What sixty metric tons of coke in.
Speaker 6 (36:10):
La Real becomes one with the real sugar or do
you think it's the fake sugar.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
I you'd have to test it out, but there you go.
Also the largest distributor of cocaine in Canada at that. Well,
this guy's like the Amazon of coke and he's wanted
for drug trafficking. Well, you can't be killing people, but
that's what they do in the drug game. So anyway,
they say the bounty on his head is said at
fifteen million. It had been ten millions, so you can
(36:37):
find them fifteen Did they ever pay those out? I
feel like they never pay out those I buddy of
mine said, they never actually pay.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Those things out. It's all bull crap. They don't pay
them out. Who knows.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Anyway, it is the Ben Mahlor Show as we are

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Time now for the insta trivia And here is the
instant trivia question of the hour. Josh Allen and Blank
are the only players in NFL history to have games
with three rushing touchdowns and three passing touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
That is the question.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
What is the answer, And let's see does anyone know
the answer? We go to the Unwashed Ben's buddy, Fred
Reyer from Eloy from Compton. So we have no condom
Carl from alf There's a great name.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Whatever happened to no condom Carl? What a legend?
Speaker 1 (38:57):
Norm Van Brocklyn from Ron Jowarski guests by Eke in Roseville, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Who's my doctor's last name? Is that right?
Speaker 6 (39:07):
Real?
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (39:09):
Man?
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Pleased to play football Bill in who's your Bills going?
With your co host Dinah, that's not Lamar Jackson from
Femi Michael the Dog Whisperer, Vic from Milkman, Mike in Colorado,
Andy Dick from Rob the goat Man, Pete Carroll guests
by King Rory Sebastian Janakowski from Doc Dan Rapper Futures
(39:30):
forty two Today from Late Night Drug Tester. Do you
have an answer the rain? It's not Tom Google Ota
guess by Shane.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
And the Moy Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
I was just gonna go with the basic Karen, it's
also not mushroom. The correct answer the Great Otto Graham,
Otto Graham.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
Team Mallard. How about that to the third degree. This
is one gets grilled. All right, here we go cool.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
I was reported on Tuesday that Aaron Rodgers will not
need surgery on his left wrist, and he's reportedly pushing
to play this week.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
He's spoke to the media.
Speaker 6 (40:07):
So it's more of a safety issue than a pain
tolerance issue. But do you think the Steelers should let
him play against the Bears? Yes?
Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yes, you only get seventeen games. If he's medically cleared
the play, he should play. I don't see what the
issue is. That's a winnable game, that's a toss up game.
The Bears have a good record, they've been winning with
as Tree in Chicago and Yaphemeio in weird ways. But yeah,
if he's able to go, and he's medically cleared, there's
no reason not to play him.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
I'd put him out there next.
Speaker 6 (40:35):
There's apparently chatter in some circles that the Vikings will
explore trading for Mac Jones this upcoming offseason. Do you
think Jones is a good insurance policy for JJ McCarthy?
Speaker 1 (40:45):
He is an insurance policy. I do not know that
I would use the word good. I do not know
that I would use the word good in that there
are some advantages to Mac Jones. He has cooled off
though right for a couple of weeks it looked like
bod this guy's great not so much anymore with the
forty nine ers, and now Brock Forty's obviously back in
(41:06):
the picture.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
And all that stuff. But you know, I don't think
there's gonna be a bating war for Mac Jones. How
about that next?
Speaker 6 (41:12):
Well, Like Fatherlike Son, apparently as a bad season for
the Buffaloes wraps up, Deon Sanders addressed to the media and
assured everyone that Colorado has the right man for the job.
He is the guy do they have the right man, Ben.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
It would be more fun if Dion said, you know,
I am not the right person for the job. I
am not, and I'm in the cockpit on the vomit comment.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
It is not going well.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
But Dion, it just looks like he's he's one of
those not the vomit commet, but like he's a comet.
He burned brightly for a little bit, quickly gone. That's it,
like or like a rainbow kind of fading off in
the distance there. I love the Deon story, but man,
does it he look like he doesn't know what he's
doing this year. We'll give another year, but it's not
looking good that we know you passed that far.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
I passed it.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
Yeah,
Omaha, omaha, it's our number two.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Happy Wednesday to you.
Speaker 1 (00:05):
It is the nineteenth day of November, and oh what
a great day it is for Benny Versus the Penny.
The latest episode of Benny Vspenny will be up on
the YouTube channel now. You can watch these monologues on
Ben Malers Show. That's the show YouTube page.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
If you want to.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Watch Benny Versus the Penny, well, that's a different page.
Benny Vspenny the Thursday appetizer for the Buffalo Bills game
against the Houston Texans. That will be yours if you
watch Benny Vspenny. But here in our number two on
this nineteenth day of November, was Chiefs coach Andy Reid
poking the Bear by basically blaming Patrick Mahomes for abandoning
(00:45):
the run game. Also, what do you make of this?
Sam Darnold Quagmar for the Seahawks and Bear's coach Ben
Johnson is frustrated with Caleb Williams up and down play?
Is that fair or foul? The report indicating that will
go there as well. It's all yours right now. It's
our number two. Too many cooks in the kitchen, well
(01:11):
one less now welcome in the beginning of another.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Hour of the Ben Malor Show. We are in the
air everywhere.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
As we drop in for a late night chat and
we provide a voice for the voiceless of the night.
Coast to coast, border to border and beyond. On the
mast and noisily powerful microphones of fs are em monating
live from the rounds, the Championship Rounds of Virgil Virtual
(01:46):
of verbal pugilism, of hanging out together here from the
world famous Fox Sports Radio studios, as approved by Ed
from Dayton had a chance to meet Ed from Dayton,
Ohio's in here hanging out.
Speaker 2 (01:58):
With us in a previous episode of the show.
Speaker 1 (02:01):
This portion of The Ben Maler Show on Fox is
made possible in part by our friends.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
At tire Rack That's Right.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
For over forty years, tire Rack has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
I know Big Greg and Iowa, ferg Dog and the
Burner Account all love that ship fast and freed back
by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like
mobile tire installation, tire rack dot Com, the Way that
(02:30):
tire buying show b I know JC from Sherman Oaks
excited about that as well. There's one thing that is
universally loved by the Malord militia more than anything else
that we do.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I've been doing radio for a long time. The one
thing that every man, woman and child.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
That listens to the Overnight Show loves is when we
are attacked by gremlins. There is nothing that brings more
joy to the world than when the gremlins attack. I've
never seen anything like it. People they cheer for the gremlins.
It's wild, wild and crazy. Anyway, I leave this hour
from the high speed sports wire.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
As my old mentor.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
In San Diego used to say, as we try not
to throw a wobbler, so we head to the Bayo
as the transaction wire heating up. If you did not
hear about this, perhaps not well if you missed it.
The New Orleans Saints have fired wide receiver Brandon Cooks.
He will become a free agent, assuming he is not
(03:29):
claimed on waivers. I don't know anyone would claim him,
as his career is in ashes. At this point, Cooks
asked to be fired. And the team that made the
paper bag famous the team that's now back to the ains.
There in naulence and no, if you dig a little deeper,
Cooks had a bunch of incentives in his contract for
things like receptions and touchdowns and playing time and receiving yards.
(03:54):
Would you like to take a guess how many of
those incentives.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
He reached this year? Yeah? None? None. That is a
body blow, body blow, body blow.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
He finished his time in New Orleans, his second run
with the Saints, with nineteen catches for one hundred and
sixty five yards and as many touchdowns as.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
You and I scored. None. All right, so that is
a good jumping off point.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Let us discuss this is post trade deadline. This is
a player that the Saints tried to trade nobody wanted.
So the question does former Saints wide receiver Brandon Cooks
budge the needle at all? Does he budge the needle
at all? My observations on this. I've got Alan Wrench,
(04:39):
Elmer's Brand Ambassador, and The Big Lebowski, a classic movie.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
And we will.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Combine all of these things together, and we are going
to hire an exterminator to kill the gremlins.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Is what we're going to do, all right. Rab a
punch right to the gut, right to the gut is.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
What we're gonna do, all right, So number one, I
said number why, yes, all right? So I would say
it's not a zero. The needle moves a smidge, just
a smidge. This is not clearly Puka Nakoua. It's not
(05:17):
Justin Jefferson or Jamar Chase spitting a loogie in your face.
This is a depth piece, that's all this is. He's
a receiver, that is. I don't even know how serviceable
he is. You put him in the huddle, he won't
hurt you. He's obviously not the focal point Brandon Cooks
of anyone's offense at this point.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
You know what he is.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
He's like an Alan wrench. You know everyone's got that
junk drawer. He's the Alan wrench in the junk drawer.
You keep it around because you might need it. It
could be useful, but you're not building the house with it.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Cooks might be the Johnny Cash of the NFL, because
he has been everywhere where a man, He's traveled every
road in this year football land he has. He started
with the Saints, went to the Patriots, was traded again
to the Rams Texans.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
Now he's gone back to the New Orleans Saints and
he's on the market again. So that's one, two, three, four, five,
five teams. He's thirty two years old. He just turned
thirty two.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
Not that long ago.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
He's got more luggage tags than Delta Airlines has available.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
And this dude has been traded so many times.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Imagine the Marriotte points because when you change teams during
the year, and he's done that a couple of times,
you end up, you know, living in an hotel most
of the time. And so this production of Cooks at
one point very productive.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
That's what teams wanted him.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
And he has been fading like the sun off in
the horizon there, fading down, and you're not getting the
twenty seventeen vintage of Brandon Cooks. That model has been discontinued.
Yards per target down at the very peak, which was
actually twenty sixteen, he averaged nine point three yards. Now
he's in the mid sixes this season. His legs not young,
(07:13):
not young, over a thousand snaps a year. Eventually, the
mileage it affects the injine quality of the engine, and
so what you're signing is a high end number three receiver.
Wink Wink a situational number two receiver, possibly in the
red zone.
Speaker 2 (07:32):
You can get something out of him.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
Occasionally he'll go into hot tup time machine Brandon Cooks,
and he'll burn one down the sidelines. But Cooks does
not change the trajectory of your season.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
He does not.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
He's there for depth. He's a nice player. You could
talk about what he used to be. He doesn't move
the needle, just a little smidge. That's it now, Page
two that say, we all know one of the great
things about life.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
One man's trash is another man's treasure.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
If you don't believe that, go to like a good
Will store or any of any of the stores where
they sell you know what one of my friends, you say,
dead people's stuff. You know, people that die and they
donate their stuff when they're gone, and people run to
buy that stuff at thrift shops and all that.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
So again, one manstraction of the man's structure.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
So we know that this is not a dynamic playmaker
at this point, but he's going to continue to hammer away.
And clearly he made the decision that there's somebody that
wants you don't ask to be fired from the job
that you have. If you have nothing else out there
that would be that would be ridiculous. So the question
I have now deputized you as the career counselor for
(08:43):
the ballplayer. Okay, so the question where should wide receiver
Brandon Cooks take his talents.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
The wandering wide out and that.
Speaker 1 (08:53):
Big suitcase to finish the season and most likely his career.
So after eight minutes long deliberation of the available options,
there are two primetime landing spots and sleeper team, Sleeper Team,
Sleeper Team now at the very top. And this is
not a list for Terry and England. This is not
(09:15):
a list. It's Big Ben's big board, which is nothing
like a list. It's Big Ben's big board. And the
first up here. Here we go, Buffalo, Here we go, Buffalo.
Josh Allen, the Bazooka arm An.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
MVP season a year ago. What's not to like?
Speaker 1 (09:39):
And the Bills don't have much at the wide receiver position.
There's some reports out here that Keon Coleman, who was
benched for malfeasance last week, is going to be benched
again for the game coming up here on Thursday night
in Houston. So Keon Coleman's in the doghouse. He's in
the very back of the doghouse. Heck, he's not, He's
(09:59):
only the bat back of the doghouse. He's in the
basement of the dog house. Well, they'll have a basement
of the doghouse.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Well, yes they do.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Now He's in the basement of the doghouse. So they
need help there, And that would be a smart football
fit in theory. Josh Allen the deep ball, and every
once in a while you could get a throwback highlight
from Brandon Cooks maybe once a game or one and
a half times on average per game. Now, if not
(10:25):
Western New York, do I hear Kansas City? You can
go there and Andy Reid and loves a good lottery ticket.
And Brandon Cooks can enjoy the Ben Mallard chicken fingers
at the Landing in.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Liberty, Missouri. Delicious food. Rashie Rice is the man. He's
the man.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
Although they didn't throw to a much in the second
half of the game against Denver, but.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Rashie Rice, that's it. That's all.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
They certainly could use another grown up in the room
there at the wide receiver position, a savvy veteran who
knows how to line up and can run the route
or root and uh and not be worried.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
About social media. And Cook's playing with Mahomes every once
in a while.
Speaker 1 (11:06):
Why not give it a shot, right, Mahomes likes throwing
to old dudes.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
He throws to Kelsey all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Now, the slaeper Team, slaper Team, the Inswers.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Petsburg, don't don't laugh, do not know, don't laugh.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Mike Tomlin has a PhD in veteran rehab. He does,
and he loves football guys. I love my football guys.
Oh yeah, absolutely, the tape war his lunch pale grinders
and all that. So Aaron Rodgers at this point needs
all the help he can get. Don't have that much
(11:45):
to get the DK Metcalf Obviously, he's a great, great player.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
There's not much else there.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Now we realize in a league that is absolutely obsessed,
completely obsessed with youngness, right, you know you want youth,
it's it's forty times, it's are you under the age
of twenty five? A guy like Brandon Cooks Still there's
still a place for a guy like that, even though
(12:12):
he's running on fumes. At this point, Brandon Cooks is
an Elmer's Glue brand ambassad.
Speaker 2 (12:18):
He's a glue guy. Glue guy, glue guy. Yep.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
He's a good guy, which means he's not that good
anymore but used to be good and has some redeeming
qualities that makes you a glue guy.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
He's a glue guy. He's not gonna again, not gonna
change your season. He won't ruin it.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
And there's a chance he actually is value added. It's
kind of like Cooks think of him like if he
was a phone, he would be an iPhone, but he'd
like be like an iPhone seven. Now, nobody needs an
iPhone seven. Not exciting. It still works.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
You don't need it. You know, you want the newest one.
But it's okay.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
You know it's it still works and all the apps
work for the most part, and all that nothing to
really complain about, all right, now, final point. We go
to the land Cleveland to be exact where Shadur Sanders announced,
I know you're very concerned about the new quarterback there
in Cleveland. Should announced that he is excited. He's excited
(13:17):
to make his first career start for the Brownies versus
the Raiders. He said, quote, I'm just excited for everything.
I feel like I'm the guy.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
I know I'm the guy. Sharder Sanders said, that's the
money quote, the spawn of Dion.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
He's going to fill in for the concussed Dylan Gabriel
who is currently well, he's.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Taking some advill he's got.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
A migraine headache from the concussion protocol and all that.
So the question on this one Shardur Sanders saying that
he feels like he's the guy for the Browns.
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Are you okay with this? Are you okay with so?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
This is on brand and as a struggling overnight gas bag.
Struggling overnight gas bag would not have it any other way.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
The thing that I am most.
Speaker 1 (14:11):
Impressed with from paying attention to the story around Shirdhar
Sanders is how powerful the Dion Caucus is in the NFL.
Now we knew Dion was a star back in the day,
in the eighties and the nineties and all that, it's
been a minute. The amount of influence that Dion Sanders
has from all the media jobs and all his buddies,
(14:32):
his ex players that are all doing meathead podcasts and
all it's wild.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I think this is people.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Talk about the most powerful political party, well, Democrats, Republican
number three, the Dion Caucus, My goodness.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Prime time politics. Really it's it's wild.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
But as far as sure, this is showmanship, it's arrogance,
it's bravado. It's a modern day Big Life Bowski, one
of the great movies. It's an old movie, but I
highly recommend it. And in this case, you've got Shaddar
Sanders who's announcing to you.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
And to me and the world.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
He says, hey, listen, I'm the dude or his dudonis
or el duderino, and if you're not into the whole
brevity thing and all that.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Stuff, but he's got swagger.
Speaker 1 (15:21):
But you know, hopefully he has his own advil as well,
because life hits you fast in the NFL.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
We know that. And good luck.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
You're not gonna get a parade here because your dad
was a great player in a different generation of the NFL.
And we'll see how Shouter does. Hard to imagine he'll
be any worse than he was in the opening performance there.
But the test will be when it's third down at
eight and you've got Max Crosby chasing you down like
(15:50):
a junkyard dog.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
What are you gonna do. What are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (15:55):
So the Raiders though, if you think of this like
a restaurant. I've had a few friends of over the
years that have gotten into restaurants and they always say, well,
you open the restaurants, a million things that can go wrong.
You always have to have a soft launch before you
have the official official launch. And soft launch is normally
friends and family, friends and family, and then you know,
maybe somebody will come in and just happen to be
(16:17):
there and look at your restaurant, and you want everyone
in the kitchen to know what they're doing and everything
like that, and you want to have.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Just a small crowd, not too busy.
Speaker 1 (16:24):
And in the NFL, if you're a quarterback, you want
to start against the Raiders because that defense is cotton
candy other than mac Crosby cotton candy. We like cotton candy,
but you don't really need, you know, functioning teeth to
eat cotton candy. And as cam Ward would say, total ass,
total ass. So as for sure say it's the Browns
are praying that they get the razzle dazzle, and not
(16:49):
just the frazzle. They want that razzle dazzle. The damage
control I go back to the Dion caucas with circle
back to the Dion caucas It's happened. Anyone and everyone
who has Dion's phone number has magically blamed, among other things,
the offensive line, the play calling, the weather, the lack
(17:12):
of practice reps. I believe mercury being in retrograde has
also been blamed. We'll have to check with our astrology insider.
Some kind of cosmic event in the Farmer's almanac, and
essentially anything but Shader. He is not culpable at all.
He gets a full pardon from the Dion Caucus. And
you can tell who exactly is in Dion's DMS who's
(17:35):
getting text messages from Dion based on.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
How loud they are capping for his kid. It's wild.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
No shame, no shame that there was a point, you know,
I got again, I'm getting old, But there was a
point where people would never take part in that because
it was so embarrassing. Now they're lining up to wear
knee pads with Dion's logo on it to support the kid.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
It's wild.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
We got generation after generation of excuses, and all of that,
of course, is prologued. And if you say you're the
guy if you say that, then you go out and
be the guy. You know, do I expect him to
play well? No, although, boy, the Raiders are so they're
so bad. I mean, the NFL generally does expose the fraudsters,
(18:27):
the con artists right faster than Dion's dad can send
out a message saying, here are the talking points for you.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
On television, here are the.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Talking points for you, you insider, a woman who just
repeats whatever I tell you, that kind of thing, because

Speaker 2 (25:22):
When they fall asleep, you get that sleep apnea thing.
It sounds younger.

Maybe not there yet.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Oh he is he younger? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Man?
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Is he a kid caller? I don't think he's a kid,
I mean younger.
Speaker 6 (25:33):
If I had to guess, just based off of a
couple of times I screen just call, I would go
like nineteen twenty.
Speaker 1 (25:39):
Oh, okay, that's prime demo. That's big demo. That's we
need that demo. Okay, that's terrible.
Speaker 2 (25:45):

Big fans of your work, Gunner, you're my favorite gunner
other than the gunner in Minnesota that's likes to annoy me.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
Other than that, let's.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Go to Jed who fled by the Way eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox. If you want to jump
online eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, we'll get

on this I guess some other stuff to get to,
including make a run for the border. And right now
though we say hello to Jed who fled Hello Jed Ben.
Speaker 7 (26:20):
Sometimes I catch up to you and a binge listening
of formats and he's funny you mentioned the Olympics because, uh,
I'm remember for Rickey Bobby talent, they can I recently
You've gonna pass out because of the rhymes? Was heydenus?
You were talking about starting a housekeeping Olympics, dude, and
you were unreasonably excited about that. Explain your yes, Yes,
(26:42):
I did like your talk identity after what was that?
Speaker 2 (26:44):
That was actually the Fifth Hour podcast.
Speaker 1 (26:47):
I believe I did twenty minutes on the my ideas
for the Olympics of housekeeping. I we it actually started.
I was talking on the show. On the radio show
at the end of last week. We were talking about it.
Came up in conver station. I said, this is a
great thing. This should be a major.
Speaker 7 (27:05):
Holidays. I'm just named sympathizing the Holidayay.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
So I was. I was watching.

But that's that's one of the most downloaded episodes of
the Fifth Hour podcast. If you haven't heard that, go
back and listen. A detailed. I gave that for free jet.
That's big. The Malard think tank was activated. I gave
out that for free I had all the sports. I said,
we go global. You know who can who can vacuum better?
Somebody in Saudi Arabia or somewhere, somebody in New Zealand
(27:31):
or Australia, who knows.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
That's why we need the Olympics. We need who can clean?
Who can clean glass better? Uh? Someone in North Korea
or South Korea. I don't know. That's why we have
the Olympics.
Speaker 7 (27:44):
I know that missile craft pipes, I can blow glass.
But I think you should be sponsored by Bissell because, dude,

York Miami, right, That's where all the that's the old

Speaker 2 (30:44):
Man alive? All right?
Speaker 7 (30:46):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (30:47):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (30:47):
Doc Dan in Minnesota, who found the show wall in
the hospital, says maybe Lorena got hanta virus from Mickey
Mouse wallet Disneyland.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
JE see that that was not the weather. The weather,
it's not the weatherzzling. I'm gonna I don't want to.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
I don't want to Jax myself. I'm being a pretty
good streak. I had like three or four months where
I was really at a viral thing that was all
messed up, remember, and my voice was all messed up.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
And that was right, Oh yeah, it was. It was terrible.
And and it.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Was like I had so many live reads and I
had what they whacked Eddy, and so I had like
live reads and it was like just it was the
the Olympics for talk radio with all the live commercials
and all that.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
But my god, but I recommend garlic.
Speaker 1 (31:40):
Have I told you my garlic therapy that has helped
me so many times when you have like vocal.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
No, no, what I do?
Speaker 1 (31:47):
And I heard this from an old DJ when I
when I started in radio in San Diego, and the
guy told me I was very guldible. He was probably
full of crap, but it's worked. And let me just
put his disclaimer out for the lawyers. You should never
take medical advice from an overnight talk radio host. You
should never do it. You should consult with medical professionals.
You should never take anything that is said on the
(32:08):
radio as the gospel. But what I have done, and
I learned this from DJ, when you have like laryngitis,
or your voice is.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Kind of going out a little bit. There's something you
can take a piece of raw.
Speaker 8 (32:17):
Garlic, like a little clove, a little head of a
clove of garlic, and you cut it in half, and
you put half on one side of your mouth and
half on the other, and you get you do this
before you go to bed, and you kind of suck
out the juices.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Of the garlic, the very potent garlic, and it'll go
to your throat and it will kill help kill the infection.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
In your throat.
Speaker 1 (32:40):
And if you do it, if you time it right,
it will actually take care of the issue and it'll
certainly make it easier for you to communicate. I have
done it, and a couple of times I missed the
mark is there's only there's a window when you have
to do it, and if you miss the window, it
doesn't really do much.
Speaker 3 (33:00):
I might have missed the window.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
You know, the Egyptians sixth side, I understand, I.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Understand, But the Egyptians worshiped garlic, you know the old country.
In the Old Country, garlic was nature's antibiotic, that was medicine.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Does a bird did you keep it in your cheek?
Did you know in antiquity they did not have cvs.
In antiquity, I did not know this. They didn't have Walgreens.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Had they had these medical people that recommended garlic.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
They say, oh, it's wrong with you.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
And this, I mean, this goes way back since at
least like the thirteen hundreds, they say, and so probably
before that, you know, you know, I wouldn't be surprised
if t Rex sucked on a big thing of garlic.
You know, the dinosaurs loved garlic as well.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
Maybe if they did, they'd still be here. What about Neanderthals.
Speaker 1 (33:53):
Neanderthals also loved the garlic, you know, they warded off
the evil stuff and all that.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
And no, you're not okay, just saying, you know who
doesn't love garlic? Who's that Dracula? Yeah, that's right. Vampires.
Vampires do not like garlic. They do not.
Speaker 1 (34:08):
It's one of the side effects that happens that immortality
and all that.
Speaker 2 (34:14):
The vampires.
Speaker 1 (34:16):
It's just terrible for them. So but anyway, and they
don't like sunlight either, right, they.
Speaker 2 (34:22):
Don't like sunlight.
Speaker 6 (34:23):
I could never be a vampire.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
Very harmful for vampires. It's not good anyway. It is
the Ben Mahler show. So a different kind of Olympic hero.
How about this talk about this guy a few months back.
Ryan Wedding is his name. I was an Olympic snowboarder
and he is now on the most most ten person
most wanted list of the FBI. He has become a
(34:47):
drug kingpin. He's living in Mexico. He remains at large,
and he has been charged in the death of a
federal witness. The FBI had a big news conference big
shots there in DC.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
I think it was there.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
Yeah, and this guy was in the Olympics as a
snowboarder back and he's a Canadian.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
Non American guy.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Oh god, but he is now among the FBI's ten
most wanted fugitives, wanted for murder of a federal witness.
And he allegedly placed a bounty on a witness's head
and he believed that if the death of this guy
would result in the dismissal of criminal charges. Turns out
(35:35):
the FBI said not so fast. This guy was in
the two thousand and two Salt Lake City Olympics and
they claimed the US Attorney General claims that he now
runs the most prolific and violent drug trafficking organization in
the world. Well that's pretty but you talk about reaching
the top of your profession. I mean, if you're going
to be a drug dealer, you might as well go
(35:55):
for the kingpin status. And he's doing that. Organization was
consible for imputting sixty metric tons of coke per year
into La from Mexico.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
What sixty metric tons of coke in.
Speaker 6 (36:10):
La Real becomes one with the real sugar or do
you think it's the fake sugar.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
I you'd have to test it out, but there you go.
Also the largest distributor of cocaine in Canada at that. Well,
this guy's like the Amazon of coke and he's wanted
for drug trafficking. Well, you can't be killing people, but
that's what they do in the drug game. So anyway,
they say the bounty on his head is said at
fifteen million. It had been ten millions, so you can
(36:37):
find them fifteen Did they ever pay those out? I
feel like they never pay out those I buddy of
mine said, they never actually pay.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
Those things out. It's all bull crap. They don't pay
them out. Who knows.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
Anyway, it is the Ben Mahlor Show as we are
working our way through the overnight hours. Time now though
for the instead trivia, and here it is. We do

Speaker 2 (38:22):
Let's get to it all right.
Speaker 1 (38:23):
Time now for the insta trivia And here is the
instant trivia question of the hour. Josh Allen and Blank
are the only players in NFL history to have games
with three rushing touchdowns and three passing touchdowns.
Speaker 2 (38:38):
That is the question.
Speaker 1 (38:39):
What is the answer, And let's see does anyone know
the answer? We go to the Unwashed Ben's buddy, Fred
Reyer from Eloy from Compton. So we have no condom
Carl from alf There's a great name.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
Whatever happened to no condom Carl? What a legend?
Speaker 1 (38:57):
Norm Van Brocklyn from Ron Jowarski guests by Eke in Roseville, Minnesota.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
Who's my doctor's last name? Is that right?
Speaker 6 (39:07):
Real?
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 6 (39:09):
Man?
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Pleased to play football Bill in who's your Bills going?

Femi Michael the Dog Whisperer, Vic from Milkman, Mike in Colorado,
Andy Dick from Rob the goat Man, Pete Carroll guests
by King Rory Sebastian Janakowski from Doc Dan Rapper Futures
(39:30):
forty two Today from Late Night Drug Tester. Do you
have an answer the rain? It's not Tom Google Ota
guess by Shane.
Speaker 2 (39:35):
And the Moy Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
I was just gonna go with the basic Karen, it's
also not mushroom. The correct answer the Great Otto Graham,
Otto Graham.
Speaker 2 (39:45):
Team Mallard. How about that to the third degree. This
is one gets grilled. All right, here we go cool.
Speaker 6 (40:00):
I was reported on Tuesday that Aaron Rodgers will not
need surgery on his left wrist, and he's reportedly pushing
to play this week.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
He's spoke to the media.
Speaker 6 (40:07):
So it's more of a safety issue than a pain
tolerance issue. But do you think the Steelers should let
him play against the Bears? Yes?
Speaker 1 (40:14):
Yes, you only get seventeen games. If he's medically cleared
the play, he should play. I don't see what the
issue is. That's a winnable game, that's a toss up game.
The Bears have a good record, they've been winning with
as Tree in Chicago and Yaphemeio in weird ways. But yeah,
if he's able to go, and he's medically cleared, there's
no reason not to play him.
Speaker 2 (40:33):
I'd put him out there next.
Speaker 6 (40:35):
There's apparently chatter in some circles that the Vikings will
explore trading for Mac Jones this upcoming offseason. Do you
think Jones is a good insurance policy for JJ McCarthy?
Speaker 1 (40:45):
He is an insurance policy. I do not know that
I would use the word good. I do not know
that I would use the word good in that there
are some advantages to Mac Jones. He has cooled off
though right for a couple of weeks it looked like
bod this guy's great not so much anymore with the
forty nine ers, and now Brock Forty's obviously back in
(41:06):
the picture.
Speaker 2 (41:06):
And all that stuff. But you know, I don't think
there's gonna be a bating war for Mac Jones. How
about that next?
Speaker 6 (41:12):
Well, Like Fatherlike Son, apparently as a bad season for
the Buffaloes wraps up, Deon Sanders addressed to the media and
assured everyone that Colorado has the right man for the job.
He is the guy do they have the right man, Ben.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
It would be more fun if Dion said, you know,
I am not the right person for the job. I
am not, and I'm in the cockpit on the vomit comment.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
It is not going well.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
But Dion, it just looks like he's he's one of
those not the vomit commet, but like he's a comet.
He burned brightly for a little bit, quickly gone. That's it,
like or like a rainbow kind of fading off in
the distance there. I love the Deon story, but man,
does it he look like he doesn't know what he's
doing this year. We'll give another year, but it's not
looking good that we know you passed that far.
Speaker 2 (41:54):
I passed it.
Speaker 1 (41:55):
Yeah,
