Speaker 1 (00:00):
Boom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a
week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants of
the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats
crackheads in the ghetto Cutter the same as the rich
pill poppers in the penthouse the clearing House of hot
takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with
(00:23):
Ben Maller starts right now in the air everywhere. It
is a Sunday, fun day and you have decided to
spend some time with us, and we do appreciate it.
On a championship Sunday in the NFL. Depending on when
you download this podcast, things have already been decided. Maybe
(00:47):
they haven't been decided. Who knows if you're listening earlier
the day. But we are back at it again here
Ben Maller and Danny g on the fifth Hour, and
we thank you for downloading the park Us. I did see,
by the way, Danny, this is a mailback podcast. But
we were begging people to go to the Apple podcast
page and to give us a review, and we got
(01:10):
one person, one person to give us the review. So
I didn't want to thank the craigster w who gave
us a five star review, Danny five star review, which
is tremendously kind, and we we do appreciate that. So
thank you for all of that begging and we got
(01:31):
one guy. We didn't beg too much. It was like
a ten second portion of the podcast last weekend. But
I will say this, maybe we should start thinking about
pulling a Clay Travis. He used to give away out
kick merchandise to those people that would give five star reviews.
That's a good idea. That's a good idea. Bribe the people.
(01:53):
How you gotta do it with podcasting reminds me and
I was doing the college radio thing. We had to
tell of phones to try to raise money to keep
the station going. And you know, we may it seem
like the phones were ringing. The phones weren't always ringing.
Sometimes the phones were dead, and you're like, oh no,
there's a lot of people calling. You gotta make it
(02:14):
seem like there's a lot of people calling sometimes the man,
that's right, it's all radio audio magic, all audio magic.
We got Burrow and my Homes and then your boy Stafford. Yeah,
and Jimmy g that is the matchup and let's go.
This is the last day until September, they'll be meaningful,
(02:39):
multiple meaningful football. Nobody really cares about the exhibition season,
so um until September when the season kicks off again
in So wait, what about the Pro Bowl at Allegiance Stadium?
Are you going to the Pro Bowl? Danny? Are you're
in Vegas? Are you gonna stick around? You just here
for that baseball tournament, A little bit of food and
(03:00):
little bit of sports gambling, and then boom back to
southern California and you gotta high tail it out of there, right,
got you? All right? Well, we have to have the
official open of the mill back. You know how we
do things, and we don't do it properly, then we
have problems. So here we go. We big thanks to
(03:22):
our buddy Ohio al who knows and what a genius
Ohio Alice. He knew we'd play that song every week
on the show, and we have on the fifth hour.
It's amazing how that works. We love it it. It's
the proper way to begin the festivities here. So let's
see what do we have. Yes, we do, Sweet Potato
(03:42):
Bob in Cincinnati, right city, says Big Ben and Danny.
G If you scored a big time interview with a
dictator in another country who might possibly kill you at
the end allah the movie the interview? Who would you take?
Is a loyal sidekick, David Gascon or Danny g? Also,
(04:05):
would your theme song be Firework by Katie Perry? That's
from Sweet Potato Bob. Let's see here what I take?
Giscon or Danny G. I mean, I don't know. Danny.
You're like, yeah, you're like a tough guy, right. Guesscon
is like a fake tough guy. I don't know the Giscon.
He comes across as a tough guy, but I don't know.
(04:25):
If you got into a fight, I don't know. I
think I could trust you more in a fight against
the dictator, so i'd take you. But if I just
sacrifice someone, I'd go with Giscon. You know, if Gascon was,
I don't know, say in China with you, would he
stand in front of you if somebody shot a bullet
towards you? Oh god no, no, he would point. He'd say,
(04:48):
the bull's eyes over there right there on the fat
guy Mallard, make sure you hit the fact. I Guesscon
when we were doing the podcast together, hand the god here,
so he got he was trying to get a better,
like a TV job, and he got offered a job
in like West Virginia. I told him to go to
Western I said, go to West Virginia, you know, and
it's just a d go there for a few months,
(05:09):
a year or whatever. You'll get a better job. After that,
he got offered a job for a company that was
like based in China, to do American news in China.
And I should go to China. Think how cheap everything is.
He didn't listen. He never listens. Never listen to help
him out. He never lists. How dare him name on him?
But anyway, that's a good question from sweet Potato. Bob
(05:33):
Glenn in Chicago writes, and he says, hey, Ben and Danny,
g what's the deal with Dan Patrick and his van
that is a Mercedes? Does he plan on living in
one when he retires or is he shipping his dad
ads on a never ending road trip. That's a great question.
That's that commercial from the Dan Patrick Show has gotten
(05:54):
more play. It is pretty funny, Like Dan is a
big TV star. He makes an s low the money's
very wealthy, very successful, and he's promoting a sleeper van.
It's very odd to me. I agree, I agree to.
It's that you don't expect Dan Patrick, the TV star
of your childhood on ESPN, and you know he's got
(06:14):
a simulcast on radio and TV doing that that show
They Deals. You don't expect him to be pitching an RV,
you know, a form of an RV. But good for
him in your long successful radio career. Have you done
live remotes from a car lot any? Yes, yes, I've done.
(06:35):
I did remote from a Jiffy lube. I did remote
from a car dealership. Um A lows a lot of
sports bars, a lot of restaurants. The craziest probably was
the Jiffy Loube. Why we did one from a donut shop,
a Winchell's donut Shop, which big chain out west here,
and they claimed it was the largest donut shop west
(06:59):
of the Mississippi. And we we got locked out of
the place. They weren't open when we got there, so
we drove around the radio station. Had they had made
this van and maybe it looked like a like an ambulance.
They called it the Emergency Sports Ambulance and they had
lights on it and the whole thing was so cheesy,
(07:20):
but we we drove around the promotional van. You weren't
allowed to actually turn the lights on because it's not
an official emergency vehicle. But you guys are like the
sports Busters. We may or may not have turned the
lights on just for us and giggles to see what happened.
I'm not saying we did. I'm not saying we didn't.
Plus Danny the statue of limitations, as has long passed
(07:40):
on that FM radio station work comes with a lot
of Saturdays or Sundays at or holidays at a car
dealership doing alive remote And for most DJs, you moan
and grown when you see that coming up on the calendar,
because it's hard to draw listeners to the car dealership
(08:02):
because they know as soon as they walk onto the
lot they're gonna get pounced on by salespeople. Sure. I
remember one summer in Ventura, California, I decided, okay, you
know what, so that I could get some listeners here
the way I'll give my concert tickets away today. I
set up a marker and like a starting line where
the listeners stood at. I had the salespeople take turns
(08:26):
standing at the marker. I filled up a big thing
of water balloons, and I had the listeners tried to
hit the sales guys. Yeah, if we were able to
hit a salesperson, you got concert tickets. So that kind
of became our long running bit there in Southern California.
(08:47):
That part of Southern California was to abuse the sales
people on the lot. That's great, A like it. Yeah,
that was about the only way listeners would show up. Yeah,
I do remember that. I was like, because you know,
the sales department would always promise a ton of listeners,
we're gonna show up. The reality is that's bullshit. Uh,
(09:07):
you know, usually depending on the time it is and
all that. I have a great So I don't have
time to tell it now. Somebody wants to email at
a future show about how I caused an automobile accident
at a remote I was doing years ago. Well, I
don't get into that right now. Who else do we
have on the email? Let's see here, page Dan, page, Dan,
(09:28):
can't I can't see that. Let's see what do we
have here? Alright? Come back, it's time we're doing that.
Pierre and Springfield mass and he is the man the
mythel legend Alfie and you know Pineary. He says, just
for the record, I will wear it is a badge
of honor that I was called a jackass on over
four hundred affiliates for stoking the mailbag fire of the
(09:51):
Mallard Militia. He also says, for the record, the previous
week you asked for new blood, which may have scared
off some of the regulars. That's probably true. Finally, my
question for both of you is would be this, what
is on the menu in your respective homes for the
championship games a k. The Final four? As Ben would say, Well, Danny,
(10:13):
you're in Vegas, so that's off the table. And uh,
you know, I might be at the game today. We'll see.
You'll see how that goes here, depending on traffic and
logistics and all that. And if that's the case, Uh, Pierre,
I will I will make sure to pause my fast
to partake in a bunch of free free media food.
(10:38):
And the Rams I have noticed better food than the Chargers.
They both are in the same stadium. It is the
same company that does the concessions, but the Rams take
care of their people better than the Charges. Whatever. That's
so I've gone to so far. They are in need
of some good food trucks out in front of the stadium.
(11:00):
Lacking a little bit there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm
sure it'll get better as the years go on, hopefully.
And then Ben, one question for you. I after the
baseball tournament, I'm gonna have time to see the Rams
game in Vegas. So should I do the sports book thing?
Like we talked about on yesterday's podcast. Is there you know,
(11:20):
like good food adjacent to a good sports book. Yeah?
I used to love the Aria sports Book. Uh, but
I haven't been to Vegas in a couple of years,
so I already had a great sports book. Caesar's did,
but I think they cut their's back. Caesar's Palace, I
don't think it's a big as it used to be.
But I was a big fan of the r They
had big, cushy seats and it was it was really cool.
(11:41):
But there's a lot of really cool sports books depending
on what part of the trip you go to and
and all that. So now, would you like to borrow
a couple of thousand dollars from me? And I can
put that on Matt Stafford for you right now? Well,
you know, I don't want to. I don't want to
jinx anyone. As you know, Danny, it's not my style
to be that guy. I would do. The sports fan
(12:07):
insurance is what I would do, where you know, you
bet the other way, you bet on the Niners and
you hope you'll lose, and it's only you know who cares.
You lose a few bucks, but you're happy because your
team won, and then it covers you. If your team loses,
then you win a little bit of money, so you're like, Okay,
at least I want to be a little bit of money.
So it's not all it's not all bad. Sports fan
(12:29):
insurance is the way to go. Yeah, that's not a
bad idea. Alright, moving on, here we go. Yes, let's
go to Ozzy Momentum. The legendary Ozzi Momentum says Hi,
Ben and Danny. So I am very lucky to have
a lovely wife and young daughter. Who knew that Ozzy
Momentum had a wife and a young daughter. You learned
(12:51):
something new every day, he says. The only thing with
this is that my wife likes very nice and expensive things.
It seems like my daughter has picked up this trade. Well,
of course I learned it's in the d N a uh,
he says for me. Ozzy Mominham says, it's to the
point of, you know, the point of spending the money
more than having the supply of money. That's the issue.
(13:14):
So I guess he's got the money, but he's just
like spending the money. What creative ways, if any, have
you come up with to curb the spending traits of
the significant women in your lives without enacting World War three?
I need help though. The spending habits of my girls
have helped me to justify the huge costs to call
(13:35):
your show from Australia, he says, Yeah, it's not free
to call international, which I guess is somewhat of a consolation. Well, Ozzy, momentum,
God speed to you. Uh. The My advice on this
is probably the worst advice you'll ever get, is to
just just block it out, just put blinders up, living
a vacuum, and just try not to think about it.
(13:57):
Um and and the good thing is good or bad.
At some point, we're all gonna visit the pearly gates, right,
that's it, lights and then all our financial issues go away, right,
we hit the reset. But so everything's temporary, right, everything
as long as you have food on your plate and
a roof over your head, you let them. Let them
(14:17):
enjoy life, because it'll be gone before you know. That's
my advice. What about you to a certain point, we
work hard so that we could, you know, live life
and enjoy it. On the other hand, if you're trying
to save a little bit of money, and we talked
about this back in the day on Tenderoni Tips a
couple of different times, I would say, put a goal
(14:39):
out there, whether it's a cruise flight to the Bahamas
or Hawaii, disney World or something like that. If you say,
all right, in six months, we're gonna go here to
this destination and you have something to focus in on,
then that's when a family doesn't mind tightening their belt. Okay,
(15:00):
we don't need a lot of the extras. We can
get by on the basics and still enjoy life and
save money at the same time. Just try to have
some goals out there with you and your family so
that you can save some money here and there. Yeah,
that's that's a good idea for sure, for sure, and
try to encourage all right, you're gonna spend money, but
(15:21):
let's try to save a little extra every month, like
put it away and and you know, do this, but
just the same thing pretty much, you said, but just
have have a little bit of an emergency fund, a
rainy day fund, if you will, that kind of thing.
But that is a tough one. Next one is from
Marty in Ashland, Oregon. He writes, and he says, Hey, Ben,
(15:43):
this Angry Bill guy is quite the character who dubbed
him that moniker? Was it you or someone else? Curious
minds would like to know. That's from Marty, Well, Marty
in beautiful Ashland, Oregon. The answer to the Angry Bill
conundrum was Bill started calling me many years ago, and
it was around the time the way he got the nickname.
(16:06):
As I remember it, there was this great debate about
putting nets up at baseball stadiums because for a hundred
years they were able to play baseball without nets, and
people would get hit and it wasn't that big a deal,
but people were getting hit and they were going to
the hospital. Some people died as a result of this,
and so they decided baseball out of an abundance they
(16:28):
say of caution, but really out of an abundance of
lawyers giving them advice saying what are you doing in
my slab? Yeah? What are you doing there? And so
they decided to put netting up, and I was anti netting.
I'm still anti nitting and still bothers me when I
go to a ballpark and I I see the netting
up and it just annoys me. But Bill called up
(16:50):
from Jacksonville before he was angry Bill Marty and started
screaming at me, what about a nine year old? And
that was that was his claim to fame and he did,
he were and he was complete lunatic, right, a complete lunatic.
I was there for that, and I put that famous
(17:11):
drop into the system. What about a nine year old girl?
That is one of the better drops over the years.
And a lot of it is because of the question
you just read. People don't know and what context it
was said or why that came about. But you're right,
like adults sometimes have their phones stuck to their face
(17:31):
out of game and they could get hit by a baseball.
We don't really care about that because they deserve it.
But when it's a kid getting hit by a ball, well,
the reason they put the netting up, though, is really
because of the the lawsuit thing. They were the Dodgers there
was an older woman they got hit and I think
she passed away at a die after it became a big,
(17:54):
a big to do Terry in England rights in one
of our international listeners also he says, what is the
story with Eddie's nicknames? Why did you suddenly stop using them?
Was it a management decision that's from Terry names. No,
there's no management decision. I think management even listens to
the show. If they listen to the show, Terry, I
would have been off the air within five years if
(18:14):
they actually listened to the show. But part of the
issue here, and as you know, Danny, because you produced
the show this week, because the show is popular and
we're doing better and we were, it's it's really the
problem is the success of the show. Before I didn't
do fifty live reads during the show. Now every two minutes,
I've got a commercial I've got to read. And as
(18:37):
much as we love that and we do, it does
eat into the time. And so we decided, other than
just wasting all of our time reading Eddie's nicknames and
my nicknames, we cut back on that to where it's
rare and appropriate. We don't do it all the time,
but that's you know. That's because we actually have advertisers,
and we know for a while we didn't, but we do,
(18:59):
and so we like Ben. I think management listens a
lot more than you're aware of, because when they called
me last week to fill in for Coup, they told me,
all right, have a fun show with Ben and Bobo
and Eddie and Karen Kay probably he kk uh yeah,
back in the back in the old days. Oh my god. Man.
(19:19):
All right, but thank thank you for that. Terry listener
Steve from North Augusta, South Carolina. Right, so he says, hey, Ben,
I heard you and Danny g discussing my proposal last
Sunday about the Master's Golf tournament and tickets. He says,
I will have two Master Golf badges. They are four
(19:41):
day passes, so the whole, the whole, kitten gabboodle for
the tournament this year, which is April seven, eighth, ninth,
and ten. You can go to any of those days.
He says. Uh. The invitation stands. If you win a
regular from your show, Coop, Eddie, Roberto, Danny and your
wife would like to come to this year's tournament, you
(20:03):
are very welcome, and he's giving us a place to stay.
Danny says, we have two upstairs bedrooms that are empty.
Each bedroom has its own bathroom, and he says he
just wants to make sure everyone is us vaccinating. He says,
but you are invited, so uh. He does point out
that I have a trip plan to the Outer Banks,
(20:25):
which I think is actually in May. He says, March here.
I think it's in May. It's either May or March.
I don't know. Uh So any you a master's guy,
you're I mean that's I follow the majors. That's about it.
With golf. I don't really pay attention to the trash
can open or whatever it is. I pay attention to
the big tournaments, and there's four big tournaments here and
(20:45):
the Masters. I've watched the Masters since I was a
little boy. I've never been why that would be fun
to go? But I don't know. That's a tough. Since
I'm taking time off in May to go to the wedding,
I don't think I can get away with it in
April two. What about you, Danny? Any can consideration on that?
I think it would be dope because it's a bucket
(21:07):
list item. Yeah it is. I've been to one PGA
tournament before, and it was in San Diego. John rom
was the winner. I can only imagine the atmosphere out
of masters. Yeah, you can get the food. They haven't
raised the prices on the fun I'm worried about the food.
They will raised the prices, right, I'm like a cheese
sandwich and some other random things that they've served forever
(21:30):
and ever and ever. Well, Steve, I will run it
by the Fellas coop, Eddie and Roberto, and I'll tell
you what Eddie. I don't know if Eddie's a golf guy,
but Eddie is the kind of I mean Eddie I
think would be the most likely to do it. Yeah, well,
thank you, Steve. I'll be in touch. And he this
he does say in in the city he's in there,
North Augusta, South Carolina, that a lot of the big
(21:53):
time golfers will rent out houses in that part when
they when they're planning in the tournament, they'll stay in
his neighborhood. So oh yeah, Airbnb gets super popular anywhere
there's a tournament. You know, I do need to get
to South Carolina though, my you know, I gotta be
a good uncle. I don't know my niece probably doesn't
want me to visit her. She's in college over in Charleston.
(22:14):
She probably doesn't want Uncle Benny to come stopping by.
But I haven't seen her in a while. That'd be cool. Hang,
Apparently she loves Charleston. She thinks it's the greatest place
in the world. But all time eighties movie Uncle Buck,
Oh the Great Uncle Yeah, Benny pulling up in the
car that backfires, John candy Man, all right, Cubby fan Mike, write,
(22:38):
since this for both of you, what are two things
you hate about living in California? You can leave any
if you leave anywhere else where, would it be? I
hate the price of gas. I hate the taxes. I
hate the a lot of the politics I don't agree
with in California. Uh, the It just there's there's more
than two things, but the first two are the gas
(23:02):
and the taxes. I wouldn't mind paying the taxes as
much if I felt you actually got a lot of
bang for your buck. I don't think that's the case.
I think it's it's a ridiculous rip off, and I
I could spend that money better. Let's just say that.
So what about you, Danny. You know we're both natives. Yep.
So I think the only thing I could add to
(23:22):
you is the out of towners who come in and
think they can start running the city and sit on
the freeway and flip us off on our own freeway
kind of sucks. You know. There's not a lot of
things left here for Native Californians. No, there's not. And yeah,
you know it's the dudes that come in from like,
(23:42):
you know, they think they're gonna take over Hollywood and
all that and the entertainment business and yeah, you're not
gonna be a reality TV star, dude. Yeah, you're a
pimple on an elephant's ass, is what you are. And
the elephant is the size of the universe. Okay, pal
over populated, and I get it. You know, weather plays
a huge part. I'll never forget. I had a history
(24:05):
professor and he told us that he was from Syracuse,
told us that he was up to his ass in snow,
and he turned on the Rose Bowl one year and
all of the people in the stands at the Rose
Bowl had their shirts off and we're basking in the sun,
flipping off the TV like, fuck you guys out there.
(24:27):
But that's what made him drive across country and moved
to California. Yeah, and he put up with a lot
of the Thannases. But we were from here, so we
if we go anywhere else where would we go? I
don't know. I love Boston. I got offered a job
in Boston to do radio, and I really considered it.
My wife didn't think it was such a great idea.
(24:48):
So here I am, but that that would have been fun.
I love the you know, the passion of the weather
would have been a freaking nightmare to adjust too, though.
Um I would need a swimming pool. But covering the
raiders in Vegas, right here where I'm at this weekend,
would be pretty nice. Yeah, Vegas. I could do Vegas. Phoenix. Yeah,
(25:08):
Phoenix wouldn't be bad. You have beautiful Sedona right there
close by. There's parts of Oregon that I like. Seattle's
beautiful too. Yeah, there's parts of the Pacific Northwest that
could be cool. And of course we've talked about it
on the podcast. Before retiring doing radio part time in Hawaii, Yeah,
oh boy, that could be the way to retire in radio.
(25:30):
Ben be like a program director of a small station
somewhere in Hawaii, and you got offered a job there, right,
didn't you back in the day, I sure did, and
I chose to stay in southern California instead. So in
the back of my mind, I'm always like, let me
go back to Hawaii someday and do radio there. Let's
(25:51):
see who is next year. It is the always popular
mail bag. You've got mail, all right, Carlos and Houston
says Ben. Who makes someone part of the Fox Sports
Radio Alumni Association? How long do they have to work
at Fox Sports? Also, if we tried some of the
cooking with Roberto items I have Roberto when we were
(26:13):
all together in the studio, Roberto brought some in and uh, Tomal,
I remember the Tomali's, Amazing Tomali's, man of those good
Remember that in particular. I love Roberto's Tomali's that he made. Uh.
And the Alumni Associated, ironically enough, was started by Tom Looney,
(26:33):
the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. It was the charter
member while he worked at Fox Sports Radio. And then
he had to start paying his dudes when they let
him go. Uh, and he moved. And so you know,
generally you have to spend It's not like if you
you go to the big leagues. And you're immediately you like,
one day in the major leagues and you're involved in
the retirement fund whatever. It's not like that. Um. He
(26:55):
has been like, you know, a couple of months at least. Uh,
But we have we have a lot of members of
the more members of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association
than we have people that are at Fox Sports Radio
right now, so which will make sense. The company has
been around for twenty plus years, so I'm eight years in.
I can't imagine. What are you twenty two? Yeah, I
don't want to think about it. Starting the numbers are
(27:16):
startingetting like twenties cool, like the twenty year anniversity things cool.
But then it keeps adding on, you know, and then
you're now you're like, wait a minute, now this number.
You don't want to say the number because you're like, wow,
that's way too long, you know. I saw David Aldridge
when the Wizards blew that game to the Clippers this week,
he said, in my forty years of covering the NBA,
(27:39):
and I'm like, well, I don't know if i'd say that.
Keep it at twenty. You know, twenty plus years. In
a couple of decades, I've been doing this yeah, it
sounds a little bit. I talked to T. J. Reeves
before the Rams Bucks game. He's part of the Fox
Sports Radio Alumni Association. The sidelines of the Buccaneers did
(28:01):
play by play, uh and when the Bucks played Carolina,
and the play by play guy for the Buccaneers had
the COVID at the last minute and so fire the Cannons.
Gene decker Hoff couldn't do the game, and so they
had to go to the bench and they called in
out of the bullpen. Our friend T. J Reeve, quick
(28:26):
alumni question for you, because you might know the answer
to this. The fellas in the production studio last week,
we're trying to think of a host name. He used
to fill in once in a while on your show.
He was out of Vegas, and he was famous for
very long pauses. Does that ring a bell? He would
be talking, he had your usual good radio voice, but
(28:49):
then he would go, yeah, so Aaron Rodgers, oh you
know you have to. I mean the pauses would literally
be four or five seconds long. We would always think
we were off the air. Oh wow, so even longer
like than gotlie, even longer than yeah, I would say
about he averaged a second longer than Gottlieb, you know.
(29:13):
Off the top of my head, I don't I don't
know who that is. I have to man, there's been
a lot of twenty years. There's been a lot of
people that have filled in. How long ago was this?
But had to have been five six years. We we
asked Eddie and he knew who we were talking about,
but he couldn't think of the broadcaster's name. If you
(29:33):
know who I'm talking about, maybe you can hit us
up on Twitter at Ben mallor at Danny G Radio.
He was good on the air, he just had really
really long pauses, and so all of us would scramble
behind the scenes because we thought his satellite link would disconnect. Yeah,
I'm trying to trying to think, like, yeah he did.
He did some weekends fill in, He filled in for
(29:56):
you and some other shows. Occasionally he wasn't on the
air a lot. Yeah, I remember the guy in Ohio.
Remember the guy that that had the kind of the
cartoonish voice in Ohio? Remember that? Do you remember him? Yeah?
We worked with a lot of radio guys over the years. Yeah, yeah,
it was. But on this one, it's gonna we'll find
(30:19):
that name. Eventually, uh Ed in Boston writes and he says, Hey,
Man and Danny G, do you guys prefer fahitas or burritos.
I'm team Fahitas. I've been team fahitas for a long
time now. I would rather a taco than a barrito.
I would rather fahitas than a burrito. I'm I'm you know,
the burrito to me is low on. There's so many
(30:41):
great foods of Mexican foods, but I have the burrito
kind of lower than most people, so especially around the
breakfast burrito is very popular in California, Southern California. But
but I'm on team Fahita. Probably made fahitas with the
bell pepper, the onion, the chicken, whatever you have in there,
the beef, oh my go as far as rito's go.
(31:01):
I'm a classic o G with the bean and cheese
burrito from Taco Bell. In fact, the one item there
where I I'll crave it once in a while, and
so we'll have to go to Taco Bell maybe once
a month just to get a classic bean and cheese.
But I'm with you on the fahitas being better usually
because you can make your own taco. Pick the tortillas
(31:23):
you'd like. Shrimp fahitas are really good, especially here in Cali.
So I do the shrimp fahitas and then make my
own tacos from that platter. But it's all fried up
bed and they carry it to your table, and that
a roma and smoke is rising in. You're the star
of this show. Everyone's looking where the faa is gone?
(31:45):
Who's got the who's the lucky guy with the fatas? Who?
When's the fahita lottery? And they all want to know. Yeah,
whenever they set it down at a table near you,
you always kick yourself like, damn it, that's what I
should have got. Did have gone with the fat is?
What's wrong with you? Exactly? I understand? All right? John
(32:07):
from St. Louis writes, and he says, Hey, I heard
Brian Filly do an update on it, your competitor over
at CBS the other day. Does that mean he's off Fox?
Is that? I don't know? If that maybe you misheard?
Do you think I don't think he's I don't I
don't think that was Brian. Maybe it was some special
tennis update. Yeah, I mean he does do some like
(32:28):
U c l A programming. Maybe he got picked up
by uh CBS affiliate or something like that. I don't
I don't know, but I would set its phony stuff.
It didn't happen, right, Scott from northern Kentucky writes, and
he says, hey, Ben and Danny g Uh. He says,
checking in, I had emailed recently about moving from King
(32:49):
Newsome's Republic. You asked me to update how it is
compared to California. Yeah, I did. I remember that, and
Scott reports he absolutely loves it. Kentucky says, gas check
this out there, he gasses under three dollars. You don't
see homeless camps everywhere you go. He says. He works
in Cincinnati, and you don't see it there either. So
(33:11):
I do have a question for you and Danny g
in your years, but I guess traveling with the Dodgers
being around the players, did you ever walk in on
anyone in a compromising position, catch a player with a
female fan other than their significant other? He says, that's
the question for me, and then for I'll wait, I'll
(33:32):
give the one for you in a second, but answer that, uh,
absolutely all right. I was a naive young man from
Orange County, California. I had no idea the kind of
debauchery that these guys were involved in on the road.
I had heard stories, but I did get to travel
(33:53):
a little bit with the Dodgers. And you know, this
was in the days before social media. This was in
the days but for dating websites and all that. So
it was a stone age and Danny, it was an
eye opening experience. We would we would get into cities
at in the middle of the night and let's just say,
(34:14):
there would be uh women, beautiful, all dolled up women
in at three thirty four in the morning waiting at
the hotel lobby for certain guys. I don't know how
they just knew the team was gonna show up at
that time. I have no idea, but it was. It
was interesting. And yeah, I mean there were there were
(34:34):
guys that hooked up with fans. There were It did
it didn't happen, But we don't kiss and tell right, well,
I didn't kiss any I wish I had kiss him.
I didn't kiss anybody. I do remember that I loved
I would always go when the Dodgers played the Mats.
I had made the New York Swing and one of
my fond memories we were at a nightclub in Manhattan.
(34:57):
And this is kind of an outdated story now, but uh,
it was. It was, you know, obviously during the Stommers,
like in August, and it was very hot in New
York in Manhattan. We're hanging out doing our thing and
we're getting ready to leave, and one of the guys said, Hey,
there's this guy that plays for the Clippers. I was
to cover the Clippers and it was Malik Seeley, who
(35:18):
had played at St. John's and I I walked by
my Malik and he recognized me and we talked for
a few minutes and it was great. It was really cool.
He passed away a few years after that in the
Drunk Driver Killed. He was na played pretty good NBA player,
bounced around, kind of a journeyman. But I remember running
into him like it was like two worlds colliding. Danny
(35:40):
was like the baseball world in the basketball world, we're colliding,
like in Manhattan. It was. It was a weird deal.
But I guess he's from He was from New York,
so that was his home. I remember Malik. He was
a good basketball player. Yeah, it's a pretty good players,
like small forward and I was played with the Timberwolves
and then got was killed by a drunk driver. Uh
(36:00):
tragically obviously. Uh. Scott also says enjoying Danny Gee even
though he's a Fader fan and thinks pineapple is okay
on pizza. He says, Yeah, I hope to eventually meet
you guys at a meet and greet in Cincinnati so
I can buy you an adult Any plans to go
(36:21):
to Cincinnati? Is that on your list? Danny? You know,
I wouldn't mind. We could hang out with our boy
Andy Furman, right, we could go to a mansion party
with Joe Burrow, eat some chili with Justin and just
Shosh and those guys. Yeah. Even the guys that are
from there though, have told me that they think the
(36:41):
Skyline Chili is a little overrated. It's a marketing gimmick
and a little bit I had it. I thought it
was good, But you know, I guess we all kind
of have something that our area is known for, and
sometimes people there's so much build up, kind of like
a Dodger dog. There's so much build up that somebody
will come in from out of town and they'll have
(37:02):
it and it's good, but it's not what they thought
it was gonna be. Yeah, Well I learned when I
went to Boston and I had the Finway Monster Dog.
Greatest hot dog I've ever had a ballpark, amazing hot dog,
better than the Dodger dog. In fact, there's a listener
in Cambridge that is a big fan of the show
and he does a great mitzvah. Every year. He'll send
(37:23):
me a box of authentic monster dogs that you can
get at the grocery store in Boston, and he'll send
him overnight, and so I can enjoy the wonderful hot
dogs when I'm watching the baseball games. Should I feel guilty, Danny,
when I'm watching the Dodgers, I'm meaning a Finway Monster Dog,
and I think it's a better hot dog nor And
(37:44):
I was there the first year he sent those to
the crew and you yeah, you remember, Yeah, I got dude,
I grilled him up. Uh. They were delicious. Yeah, they
were really good. I think the thing with Dodger dogs,
and now it's changed because the company who makes them
has changed. There were two versions, right almost like the
microwaveable version wasn't as juicy, and there were two different
(38:06):
types in the same stadium. Once in a while, you'd
get a Dodger dog and it just hit the spot
and it felt like the most delicious thing you've had
in a while. And there there were other times where
you got it and you were just kind of let down. Yeah,
it's it's well. I like a grilled dog, like a
grilled hot dog. I don't like a boiled dog. That's disgusting.
And I remember when the early days, when I first
(38:27):
started coming the Dodgers, they had a chef named Walt,
and this old guy who had been there probably since
the team moved to l A. And I was, hey, Walt,
can you burn up my dogs? And he'd do it.
I tipped him a couple of bucks and he'd burned
the dogs up and they were in large back in
those days. But see, that's what I'm talking about. Every
dog at the stadium should be made like that. That's
(38:48):
what I'm saying. I agree with you, all right, Big Greg,
and I will let's be the last morning we're getting
little long on this, Big Greg and I well, maybe
you one more Big Greg in Iowa and Danny G.
He's just been in. Danny G. How much money do
we need to get out of Ben's bank account to
pay Scotch Shapiro to keep Brian Finley off of the
updates when Eddie is off, or to pay him to
(39:09):
get Robbie the Mariner fan as his replacement. And we
can't explain how or why we have access to Ben's
bank account. Well, you really wouldn't be impressed if you
saw my bank account. Yeah, he says Danny ge what
would have been your worst experience dejaying a party? He
wants to know us from Big Greg in Iowa. I
(39:32):
was on my This was a few years ago. I
want to say maybe four or five years ago. I
drove up to northern California to play a reunion for
a class that had graduated in the mid nineties. So
they wanted some hip hop, some country. They wanted to
mix it up with music from the nineties, and I
(39:52):
kind of specialized in that. I have a huge library
from the nineties. So I'm on my way up there.
Ben problem. There was a heat way going on through
the Central Valley. It was a hundred and ten hundred
and twelve degrees through Fresno. I remember I was packing
my Vinyl on ice like I had an igloo in
(40:13):
my car, but it was to keep electronics and the
control records from melting. My leather seats were melting when
I stopped in Fresno. So I get to Modesto, California,
where this party was gonna be held. Half my equipment,
including my main hard drive, was toast. Oh, everything was
(40:35):
on the fritz. My two control records were warped. I
had to go to automatic settings and I pulled that
gig out of my aspen because a lot of my
gear got ruined just due to the heat. Yeah. That sucks. Uh,
that's brutal. I do not recommend doing outdoor gigs in
(40:59):
the Control Valley or northern California during the heat wave
of the summer. No, that's an oven in Fresno, Bakersfield,
the central part of California. Holy Connoli, Man, that is
a freaking That's a microwave? Is what that is? All right? Uh?
I said that was the last. Well, there's another one
(41:19):
that caught my attention, he said. Kevin in Cansa got mail, yea,
I got mail. Yeah down, Calm down, dummy, Kevin in
Kansas says, dear Ben, how would you describe your show
to someone who hasn't heard it yet? I tried, but
it's hard to describe all of you guys, he says,
(41:44):
I don't know how it's a It starts as a
sports show and then it just talks about random, random crap.
That's it's the show about nothing. But I don't know.
How would you describe the show, Danny, I don't really know.
You've been on the show for years. I not sure
how you would sum it up in a few lines.
It's it's unlike, how about this, it's unorthodox sports talk radio.
(42:07):
It's not part of the orthodoxy. We we kind of
mock sports talk radio in a way. A lot of
the things that we do we poke fun at the
the regular people that do sports radio. Yeah, it's definitely
against the grain, and it's listener driven, which is a
lot of fun games. And drops is something I explained
to like my mom when I first joined your show.
(42:30):
I speaking of northern California. I remember visiting her there
back in like when I first was helping on your
show in January of that year, and she asked me
to explain, well, what do you mean by drops? What
are those? And so I explained it to her and
explained how we used them, and she got the biggest
kick out of that, She's like, you get to do
(42:50):
that every night. I'm actually on the live. Yes, you're
on and you get paid for that. You're like that,
but not much in us. And when I told her
what the most famous drops were and how I waited
for the perfect time to play them and how timing
(43:10):
was everything, she thought that was the coolest thing. So
to this day, when I check in with my mom,
she's like, any good drops, any new drops? That's great.
That's uh, that's good to hear. Well, yeah, Kevin, thank you,
And you know, just give it a shot, tell you
give it a give it a week, yeah, you know,
give it a few days. See if you like. I'm not.
(43:32):
We didn't have time to get to the question from
Lugo in Lancaster, California, Blind Emmett, Tom from Fullerton, Chris
from Des Moines, Lord goofa. So sorry about that, you guys,
try again next week. We'll post a link on Tuesday,
right usually Tuesday, we post a link on my Facebook page,
(43:53):
the show Facebook page Ben Mallow Show. We can send
questions in to Danny here myself on Twitter and we
may may you them on the show. So I have
a great rest of your time, in Vegas, Danny and
go Rams go. I was just gonna yeah, I was
just gonna ask you how you feeling. Are you nervous? No?
I actually think they're gonna get it done. I don't know.
Now they played the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, well
(44:15):
the Chiefs of the top team and homes top guy.
But I don't know if I could handle another Rams
lost in the Super Bowl like they did against That
was a That was a real kick in the nuts
when they lost to the Patriots a few years ago.
But now I think they're going. I think they're going
to the super Bowl. First time ever a team has
hosted the NFC Championship game that could then host the
Super Bowl. It's never happened before, and I'd love to
(44:39):
see it, so I obviously I'm a little biased on that. Oh.
I just got an alert on my phone. Ben cam
Akers just dropped his breakfast sandwich on very funny screw
you all right, screw you keep been in a fumble today.
You imagine that they have a lead, they're melking the
clock and cam Akers bug on the rug. No. Anyway,
have a great night night, and I'll be back to
(45:01):
break everything down in the Magic radio box, terrestrial radio
back on the old FM AM dial depending on where
you listen, and the I Heart app at eleven pm
in the West on Sunday night, two am in the
East on Monday morning, and we'll take you through the overnight,
so we'll catch you then and thank you Danny, good job.
Go gamble, you gotta murder, I gotta go.
Boom. If you thought four hours a day, minutes a
week was enough, think again. He's the last remnants of
the old republic, a sole fashion of fairness. He treats
crackheads in the ghetto Cutter the same as the rich
pill poppers in the penthouse the clearing House of hot
takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with
(00:23):
Ben Maller starts right now in the air everywhere. It
is a Sunday, fun day and you have decided to
spend some time with us, and we do appreciate it.
On a championship Sunday in the NFL. Depending on when
you download this podcast, things have already been decided. Maybe
(00:47):
they haven't been decided. Who knows if you're listening earlier
the day. But we are back at it again here
Ben Maller and Danny g on the fifth Hour, and
we thank you for downloading the park Us. I did see,
by the way, Danny, this is a mailback podcast. But
we were begging people to go to the Apple podcast
page and to give us a review, and we got
(01:10):
one person, one person to give us the review. So
I didn't want to thank the craigster w who gave
us a five star review, Danny five star review, which
is tremendously kind, and we we do appreciate that. So
thank you for all of that begging and we got
(01:31):
one guy. We didn't beg too much. It was like
a ten second portion of the podcast last weekend. But
I will say this, maybe we should start thinking about
pulling a Clay Travis. He used to give away out
kick merchandise to those people that would give five star reviews.
That's a good idea. That's a good idea. Bribe the people.
(01:53):
How you gotta do it with podcasting reminds me and
I was doing the college radio thing. We had to
tell of phones to try to raise money to keep
the station going. And you know, we may it seem
like the phones were ringing. The phones weren't always ringing.
Sometimes the phones were dead, and you're like, oh no,
there's a lot of people calling. You gotta make it
(02:14):
seem like there's a lot of people calling sometimes the man,
that's right, it's all radio audio magic, all audio magic.
We got Burrow and my Homes and then your boy Stafford. Yeah,
and Jimmy g that is the matchup and let's go.
This is the last day until September, they'll be meaningful,
(02:39):
multiple meaningful football. Nobody really cares about the exhibition season,
so um until September when the season kicks off again
in So wait, what about the Pro Bowl at Allegiance Stadium?
Are you going to the Pro Bowl? Danny? Are you're
in Vegas? Are you gonna stick around? You just here
for that baseball tournament, A little bit of food and
(03:00):
little bit of sports gambling, and then boom back to
southern California and you gotta high tail it out of there, right,
got you? All right? Well, we have to have the
official open of the mill back. You know how we
do things, and we don't do it properly, then we
have problems. So here we go. We big thanks to
(03:22):
our buddy Ohio al who knows and what a genius
Ohio Alice. He knew we'd play that song every week
on the show, and we have on the fifth hour.
It's amazing how that works. We love it it. It's
the proper way to begin the festivities here. So let's
see what do we have. Yes, we do, Sweet Potato
(03:42):
Bob in Cincinnati, right city, says Big Ben and Danny.
G If you scored a big time interview with a
dictator in another country who might possibly kill you at
the end allah the movie the interview? Who would you take?
Is a loyal sidekick, David Gascon or Danny g? Also,
(04:05):
would your theme song be Firework by Katie Perry? That's
from Sweet Potato Bob. Let's see here what I take?
Giscon or Danny G. I mean, I don't know. Danny.
You're like, yeah, you're like a tough guy, right. Guesscon
is like a fake tough guy. I don't know the Giscon.
He comes across as a tough guy, but I don't know.
(04:25):
If you got into a fight, I don't know. I
think I could trust you more in a fight against
the dictator, so i'd take you. But if I just
sacrifice someone, I'd go with Giscon. You know, if Gascon was,
I don't know, say in China with you, would he
stand in front of you if somebody shot a bullet
towards you? Oh god no, no, he would point. He'd say,
(04:48):
the bull's eyes over there right there on the fat
guy Mallard, make sure you hit the fact. I Guesscon
when we were doing the podcast together, hand the god here,
so he got he was trying to get a better,
like a TV job, and he got offered a job
in like West Virginia. I told him to go to
Western I said, go to West Virginia, you know, and
it's just a d go there for a few months,
(05:09):
a year or whatever. You'll get a better job. After that,
he got offered a job for a company that was
like based in China, to do American news in China.
And I should go to China. Think how cheap everything is.
He didn't listen. He never listens. Never listen to help
him out. He never lists. How dare him name on him?
But anyway, that's a good question from sweet Potato. Bob
(05:33):
Glenn in Chicago writes, and he says, hey, Ben and Danny,
g what's the deal with Dan Patrick and his van
that is a Mercedes? Does he plan on living in
one when he retires or is he shipping his dad
ads on a never ending road trip. That's a great question.
That's that commercial from the Dan Patrick Show has gotten
(05:54):
more play. It is pretty funny, Like Dan is a
big TV star. He makes an s low the money's
very wealthy, very successful, and he's promoting a sleeper van.
It's very odd to me. I agree, I agree to.
It's that you don't expect Dan Patrick, the TV star
of your childhood on ESPN, and you know he's got
(06:14):
a simulcast on radio and TV doing that that show
They Deals. You don't expect him to be pitching an RV,
you know, a form of an RV. But good for
him in your long successful radio career. Have you done
live remotes from a car lot any? Yes, yes, I've done.
(06:35):
I did remote from a Jiffy lube. I did remote
from a car dealership. Um A lows a lot of
sports bars, a lot of restaurants. The craziest probably was
the Jiffy Loube. Why we did one from a donut shop,
a Winchell's donut Shop, which big chain out west here,
and they claimed it was the largest donut shop west
(06:59):
of the Mississippi. And we we got locked out of
the place. They weren't open when we got there, so
we drove around the radio station. Had they had made
this van and maybe it looked like a like an ambulance.
They called it the Emergency Sports Ambulance and they had
lights on it and the whole thing was so cheesy,
(07:20):
but we we drove around the promotional van. You weren't
allowed to actually turn the lights on because it's not
an official emergency vehicle. But you guys are like the
sports Busters. We may or may not have turned the
lights on just for us and giggles to see what happened.
I'm not saying we did. I'm not saying we didn't.
Plus Danny the statue of limitations, as has long passed
(07:40):
on that FM radio station work comes with a lot
of Saturdays or Sundays at or holidays at a car
dealership doing alive remote And for most DJs, you moan
and grown when you see that coming up on the calendar,
because it's hard to draw listeners to the car dealership
(08:02):
because they know as soon as they walk onto the
lot they're gonna get pounced on by salespeople. Sure. I
remember one summer in Ventura, California, I decided, okay, you
know what, so that I could get some listeners here
the way I'll give my concert tickets away today. I
set up a marker and like a starting line where
the listeners stood at. I had the salespeople take turns
(08:26):
standing at the marker. I filled up a big thing
of water balloons, and I had the listeners tried to
hit the sales guys. Yeah, if we were able to
hit a salesperson, you got concert tickets. So that kind
of became our long running bit there in Southern California.
(08:47):
That part of Southern California was to abuse the sales
people on the lot. That's great, A like it. Yeah,
that was about the only way listeners would show up. Yeah,
I do remember that. I was like, because you know,
the sales department would always promise a ton of listeners,
we're gonna show up. The reality is that's bullshit. Uh,
(09:07):
you know, usually depending on the time it is and
all that. I have a great So I don't have
time to tell it now. Somebody wants to email at
a future show about how I caused an automobile accident
at a remote I was doing years ago. Well, I
don't get into that right now. Who else do we
have on the email? Let's see here, page Dan, page, Dan,
(09:28):
can't I can't see that. Let's see what do we
have here? Alright? Come back, it's time we're doing that.
Pierre and Springfield mass and he is the man the
mythel legend Alfie and you know Pineary. He says, just
for the record, I will wear it is a badge
of honor that I was called a jackass on over
four hundred affiliates for stoking the mailbag fire of the
(09:51):
Mallard Militia. He also says, for the record, the previous
week you asked for new blood, which may have scared
off some of the regulars. That's probably true. Finally, my
question for both of you is would be this, what
is on the menu in your respective homes for the
championship games a k. The Final four? As Ben would say, Well, Danny,
(10:13):
you're in Vegas, so that's off the table. And uh,
you know, I might be at the game today. We'll see.
You'll see how that goes here, depending on traffic and
logistics and all that. And if that's the case, Uh, Pierre,
I will I will make sure to pause my fast
to partake in a bunch of free free media food.
(10:38):
And the Rams I have noticed better food than the Chargers.
They both are in the same stadium. It is the
same company that does the concessions, but the Rams take
care of their people better than the Charges. Whatever. That's
so I've gone to so far. They are in need
of some good food trucks out in front of the stadium.
(11:00):
Lacking a little bit there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm
sure it'll get better as the years go on, hopefully.
And then Ben, one question for you. I after the
baseball tournament, I'm gonna have time to see the Rams
game in Vegas. So should I do the sports book thing?
Like we talked about on yesterday's podcast. Is there you know,
(11:20):
like good food adjacent to a good sports book. Yeah?
I used to love the Aria sports Book. Uh, but
I haven't been to Vegas in a couple of years,
so I already had a great sports book. Caesar's did,
but I think they cut their's back. Caesar's Palace, I
don't think it's a big as it used to be.
But I was a big fan of the r They
had big, cushy seats and it was it was really cool.
(11:41):
But there's a lot of really cool sports books depending
on what part of the trip you go to and
and all that. So now, would you like to borrow
a couple of thousand dollars from me? And I can
put that on Matt Stafford for you right now? Well,
you know, I don't want to. I don't want to
jinx anyone. As you know, Danny, it's not my style
to be that guy. I would do. The sports fan
(12:07):
insurance is what I would do, where you know, you
bet the other way, you bet on the Niners and
you hope you'll lose, and it's only you know who cares.
You lose a few bucks, but you're happy because your
team won, and then it covers you. If your team loses,
then you win a little bit of money, so you're like, Okay,
at least I want to be a little bit of money.
So it's not all it's not all bad. Sports fan
(12:29):
insurance is the way to go. Yeah, that's not a
bad idea. Alright, moving on, here we go. Yes, let's
go to Ozzy Momentum. The legendary Ozzi Momentum says Hi,
Ben and Danny. So I am very lucky to have
a lovely wife and young daughter. Who knew that Ozzy
Momentum had a wife and a young daughter. You learned
(12:51):
something new every day, he says. The only thing with
this is that my wife likes very nice and expensive things.
It seems like my daughter has picked up this trade. Well,
of course I learned it's in the d N a uh,
he says for me. Ozzy Mominham says, it's to the
point of, you know, the point of spending the money
more than having the supply of money. That's the issue.
(13:14):
So I guess he's got the money, but he's just
like spending the money. What creative ways, if any, have
you come up with to curb the spending traits of
the significant women in your lives without enacting World War three?
I need help though. The spending habits of my girls
have helped me to justify the huge costs to call
(13:35):
your show from Australia, he says, Yeah, it's not free
to call international, which I guess is somewhat of a consolation. Well, Ozzy, momentum,
God speed to you. Uh. The My advice on this
is probably the worst advice you'll ever get, is to
just just block it out, just put blinders up, living
a vacuum, and just try not to think about it.
(13:57):
Um and and the good thing is good or bad.
At some point, we're all gonna visit the pearly gates, right,
that's it, lights and then all our financial issues go away, right,
we hit the reset. But so everything's temporary, right, everything
as long as you have food on your plate and
a roof over your head, you let them. Let them
(14:17):
enjoy life, because it'll be gone before you know. That's
my advice. What about you to a certain point, we
work hard so that we could, you know, live life
and enjoy it. On the other hand, if you're trying
to save a little bit of money, and we talked
about this back in the day on Tenderoni Tips a
couple of different times, I would say, put a goal
(14:39):
out there, whether it's a cruise flight to the Bahamas
or Hawaii, disney World or something like that. If you say,
all right, in six months, we're gonna go here to
this destination and you have something to focus in on,
then that's when a family doesn't mind tightening their belt. Okay,
(15:00):
we don't need a lot of the extras. We can
get by on the basics and still enjoy life and
save money at the same time. Just try to have
some goals out there with you and your family so
that you can save some money here and there. Yeah,
that's that's a good idea for sure, for sure, and
try to encourage all right, you're gonna spend money, but
(15:21):
let's try to save a little extra every month, like
put it away and and you know, do this, but
just the same thing pretty much, you said, but just
have have a little bit of an emergency fund, a
rainy day fund, if you will, that kind of thing.
But that is a tough one. Next one is from
Marty in Ashland, Oregon. He writes, and he says, Hey, Ben,
(15:43):
this Angry Bill guy is quite the character who dubbed
him that moniker? Was it you or someone else? Curious
minds would like to know. That's from Marty, Well, Marty
in beautiful Ashland, Oregon. The answer to the Angry Bill
conundrum was Bill started calling me many years ago, and
it was around the time the way he got the nickname.
(16:06):
As I remember it, there was this great debate about
putting nets up at baseball stadiums because for a hundred
years they were able to play baseball without nets, and
people would get hit and it wasn't that big a deal,
but people were getting hit and they were going to
the hospital. Some people died as a result of this,
and so they decided baseball out of an abundance they
(16:28):
say of caution, but really out of an abundance of
lawyers giving them advice saying what are you doing in
my slab? Yeah? What are you doing there? And so
they decided to put netting up, and I was anti netting.
I'm still anti nitting and still bothers me when I
go to a ballpark and I I see the netting
up and it just annoys me. But Bill called up
(16:50):
from Jacksonville before he was angry Bill Marty and started
screaming at me, what about a nine year old? And
that was that was his claim to fame and he did,
he were and he was complete lunatic, right, a complete lunatic.
I was there for that, and I put that famous
(17:11):
drop into the system. What about a nine year old girl?
That is one of the better drops over the years.
And a lot of it is because of the question
you just read. People don't know and what context it
was said or why that came about. But you're right,
like adults sometimes have their phones stuck to their face
(17:31):
out of game and they could get hit by a baseball.
We don't really care about that because they deserve it.
But when it's a kid getting hit by a ball, well,
the reason they put the netting up, though, is really
because of the the lawsuit thing. They were the Dodgers there
was an older woman they got hit and I think
she passed away at a die after it became a big,
(17:54):
a big to do Terry in England rights in one
of our international listeners also he says, what is the
story with Eddie's nicknames? Why did you suddenly stop using them?
Was it a management decision that's from Terry names. No,
there's no management decision. I think management even listens to
the show. If they listen to the show, Terry, I
would have been off the air within five years if
(18:14):
they actually listened to the show. But part of the
issue here, and as you know, Danny, because you produced
the show this week, because the show is popular and
we're doing better and we were, it's it's really the
problem is the success of the show. Before I didn't
do fifty live reads during the show. Now every two minutes,
I've got a commercial I've got to read. And as
(18:37):
much as we love that and we do, it does
eat into the time. And so we decided, other than
just wasting all of our time reading Eddie's nicknames and
my nicknames, we cut back on that to where it's
rare and appropriate. We don't do it all the time,
but that's you know. That's because we actually have advertisers,
and we know for a while we didn't, but we do,
(18:59):
and so we like Ben. I think management listens a
lot more than you're aware of, because when they called
me last week to fill in for Coup, they told me,
all right, have a fun show with Ben and Bobo
and Eddie and Karen Kay probably he kk uh yeah,
back in the back in the old days. Oh my god. Man.
(19:19):
All right, but thank thank you for that. Terry listener
Steve from North Augusta, South Carolina. Right, so he says, hey, Ben,
I heard you and Danny g discussing my proposal last
Sunday about the Master's Golf tournament and tickets. He says,
I will have two Master Golf badges. They are four
(19:41):
day passes, so the whole, the whole, kitten gabboodle for
the tournament this year, which is April seven, eighth, ninth,
and ten. You can go to any of those days.
He says. Uh. The invitation stands. If you win a
regular from your show, Coop, Eddie, Roberto, Danny and your
wife would like to come to this year's tournament, you
(20:03):
are very welcome, and he's giving us a place to stay.
Danny says, we have two upstairs bedrooms that are empty.
Each bedroom has its own bathroom, and he says he
just wants to make sure everyone is us vaccinating. He says,
but you are invited, so uh. He does point out
that I have a trip plan to the Outer Banks,
(20:25):
which I think is actually in May. He says, March here.
I think it's in May. It's either May or March.
I don't know. Uh So any you a master's guy,
you're I mean that's I follow the majors. That's about it.
With golf. I don't really pay attention to the trash
can open or whatever it is. I pay attention to
the big tournaments, and there's four big tournaments here and
(20:45):
the Masters. I've watched the Masters since I was a
little boy. I've never been why that would be fun
to go? But I don't know. That's a tough. Since
I'm taking time off in May to go to the wedding,
I don't think I can get away with it in
April two. What about you, Danny? Any can consideration on that?
I think it would be dope because it's a bucket
(21:07):
list item. Yeah it is. I've been to one PGA
tournament before, and it was in San Diego. John rom
was the winner. I can only imagine the atmosphere out
of masters. Yeah, you can get the food. They haven't
raised the prices on the fun I'm worried about the food.
They will raised the prices, right, I'm like a cheese
sandwich and some other random things that they've served forever
(21:30):
and ever and ever. Well, Steve, I will run it
by the Fellas coop, Eddie and Roberto, and I'll tell
you what Eddie. I don't know if Eddie's a golf guy,
but Eddie is the kind of I mean Eddie I
think would be the most likely to do it. Yeah, well,
thank you, Steve. I'll be in touch. And he this
he does say in in the city he's in there,
North Augusta, South Carolina, that a lot of the big
(21:53):
time golfers will rent out houses in that part when
they when they're planning in the tournament, they'll stay in
his neighborhood. So oh yeah, Airbnb gets super popular anywhere
there's a tournament. You know, I do need to get
to South Carolina though, my you know, I gotta be
a good uncle. I don't know my niece probably doesn't
want me to visit her. She's in college over in Charleston.
(22:14):
She probably doesn't want Uncle Benny to come stopping by.
But I haven't seen her in a while. That'd be cool. Hang,
Apparently she loves Charleston. She thinks it's the greatest place
in the world. But all time eighties movie Uncle Buck,
Oh the Great Uncle Yeah, Benny pulling up in the
car that backfires, John candy Man, all right, Cubby fan Mike, write,
(22:38):
since this for both of you, what are two things
you hate about living in California? You can leave any
if you leave anywhere else where, would it be? I
hate the price of gas. I hate the taxes. I
hate the a lot of the politics I don't agree
with in California. Uh, the It just there's there's more
than two things, but the first two are the gas
(23:02):
and the taxes. I wouldn't mind paying the taxes as
much if I felt you actually got a lot of
bang for your buck. I don't think that's the case.
I think it's it's a ridiculous rip off, and I
I could spend that money better. Let's just say that.
So what about you, Danny. You know we're both natives. Yep.
So I think the only thing I could add to
(23:22):
you is the out of towners who come in and
think they can start running the city and sit on
the freeway and flip us off on our own freeway
kind of sucks. You know. There's not a lot of
things left here for Native Californians. No, there's not. And yeah,
you know it's the dudes that come in from like,
(23:42):
you know, they think they're gonna take over Hollywood and
all that and the entertainment business and yeah, you're not
gonna be a reality TV star, dude. Yeah, you're a
pimple on an elephant's ass, is what you are. And
the elephant is the size of the universe. Okay, pal
over populated, and I get it. You know, weather plays
a huge part. I'll never forget. I had a history
(24:05):
professor and he told us that he was from Syracuse,
told us that he was up to his ass in snow,
and he turned on the Rose Bowl one year and
all of the people in the stands at the Rose
Bowl had their shirts off and we're basking in the sun,
flipping off the TV like, fuck you guys out there.
(24:27):
But that's what made him drive across country and moved
to California. Yeah, and he put up with a lot
of the Thannases. But we were from here, so we
if we go anywhere else where would we go? I
don't know. I love Boston. I got offered a job
in Boston to do radio, and I really considered it.
My wife didn't think it was such a great idea.
(24:48):
So here I am, but that that would have been fun.
I love the you know, the passion of the weather
would have been a freaking nightmare to adjust too, though.
Um I would need a swimming pool. But covering the
raiders in Vegas, right here where I'm at this weekend,
would be pretty nice. Yeah, Vegas. I could do Vegas. Phoenix. Yeah,
(25:08):
Phoenix wouldn't be bad. You have beautiful Sedona right there
close by. There's parts of Oregon that I like. Seattle's
beautiful too. Yeah, there's parts of the Pacific Northwest that
could be cool. And of course we've talked about it
on the podcast. Before retiring doing radio part time in Hawaii, Yeah,
oh boy, that could be the way to retire in radio.
(25:30):
Ben be like a program director of a small station
somewhere in Hawaii, and you got offered a job there, right,
didn't you back in the day, I sure did, and
I chose to stay in southern California instead. So in
the back of my mind, I'm always like, let me
go back to Hawaii someday and do radio there. Let's
(25:51):
see who is next year. It is the always popular
mail bag. You've got mail, all right, Carlos and Houston
says Ben. Who makes someone part of the Fox Sports
Radio Alumni Association? How long do they have to work
at Fox Sports? Also, if we tried some of the
cooking with Roberto items I have Roberto when we were
(26:13):
all together in the studio, Roberto brought some in and uh, Tomal,
I remember the Tomali's, Amazing Tomali's, man of those good
Remember that in particular. I love Roberto's Tomali's that he made. Uh.
And the Alumni Associated, ironically enough, was started by Tom Looney,
(26:33):
the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association. It was the charter
member while he worked at Fox Sports Radio. And then
he had to start paying his dudes when they let
him go. Uh, and he moved. And so you know,
generally you have to spend It's not like if you
you go to the big leagues. And you're immediately you like,
one day in the major leagues and you're involved in
the retirement fund whatever. It's not like that. Um. He
(26:55):
has been like, you know, a couple of months at least. Uh,
But we have we have a lot of members of
the more members of the Fox Sports Radio Alumni Association
than we have people that are at Fox Sports Radio
right now, so which will make sense. The company has
been around for twenty plus years, so I'm eight years in.
I can't imagine. What are you twenty two? Yeah, I
don't want to think about it. Starting the numbers are
(27:16):
startingetting like twenties cool, like the twenty year anniversity things cool.
But then it keeps adding on, you know, and then
you're now you're like, wait a minute, now this number.
You don't want to say the number because you're like, wow,
that's way too long, you know. I saw David Aldridge
when the Wizards blew that game to the Clippers this week,
he said, in my forty years of covering the NBA,
(27:39):
and I'm like, well, I don't know if i'd say that.
Keep it at twenty. You know, twenty plus years. In
a couple of decades, I've been doing this yeah, it
sounds a little bit. I talked to T. J. Reeves
before the Rams Bucks game. He's part of the Fox
Sports Radio Alumni Association. The sidelines of the Buccaneers did
(28:01):
play by play, uh and when the Bucks played Carolina,
and the play by play guy for the Buccaneers had
the COVID at the last minute and so fire the Cannons.
Gene decker Hoff couldn't do the game, and so they
had to go to the bench and they called in
out of the bullpen. Our friend T. J Reeve, quick
(28:26):
alumni question for you, because you might know the answer
to this. The fellas in the production studio last week,
we're trying to think of a host name. He used
to fill in once in a while on your show.
He was out of Vegas, and he was famous for
very long pauses. Does that ring a bell? He would
be talking, he had your usual good radio voice, but
(28:49):
then he would go, yeah, so Aaron Rodgers, oh you
know you have to. I mean the pauses would literally
be four or five seconds long. We would always think
we were off the air. Oh wow, so even longer
like than gotlie, even longer than yeah, I would say
about he averaged a second longer than Gottlieb, you know.
(29:13):
Off the top of my head, I don't I don't
know who that is. I have to man, there's been
a lot of twenty years. There's been a lot of
people that have filled in. How long ago was this?
But had to have been five six years. We we
asked Eddie and he knew who we were talking about,
but he couldn't think of the broadcaster's name. If you
(29:33):
know who I'm talking about, maybe you can hit us
up on Twitter at Ben mallor at Danny G Radio.
He was good on the air, he just had really
really long pauses, and so all of us would scramble
behind the scenes because we thought his satellite link would disconnect. Yeah,
I'm trying to trying to think, like, yeah he did.
He did some weekends fill in, He filled in for
(29:56):
you and some other shows. Occasionally he wasn't on the
air a lot. Yeah, I remember the guy in Ohio.
Remember the guy that that had the kind of the
cartoonish voice in Ohio? Remember that? Do you remember him? Yeah?
We worked with a lot of radio guys over the years. Yeah, yeah,
it was. But on this one, it's gonna we'll find
(30:19):
that name. Eventually, uh Ed in Boston writes and he says, Hey,
Man and Danny G, do you guys prefer fahitas or burritos.
I'm team Fahitas. I've been team fahitas for a long
time now. I would rather a taco than a barrito.
I would rather fahitas than a burrito. I'm I'm you know,
the burrito to me is low on. There's so many
(30:41):
great foods of Mexican foods, but I have the burrito
kind of lower than most people, so especially around the
breakfast burrito is very popular in California, Southern California. But
but I'm on team Fahita. Probably made fahitas with the
bell pepper, the onion, the chicken, whatever you have in there,
the beef, oh my go as far as rito's go.
(31:01):
I'm a classic o G with the bean and cheese
burrito from Taco Bell. In fact, the one item there
where I I'll crave it once in a while, and
so we'll have to go to Taco Bell maybe once
a month just to get a classic bean and cheese.
But I'm with you on the fahitas being better usually
because you can make your own taco. Pick the tortillas
(31:23):
you'd like. Shrimp fahitas are really good, especially here in Cali.
So I do the shrimp fahitas and then make my
own tacos from that platter. But it's all fried up
bed and they carry it to your table, and that
a roma and smoke is rising in. You're the star
of this show. Everyone's looking where the faa is gone?
(31:45):
Who's got the who's the lucky guy with the fatas? Who?
When's the fahita lottery? And they all want to know. Yeah,
whenever they set it down at a table near you,
you always kick yourself like, damn it, that's what I
should have got. Did have gone with the fat is?
What's wrong with you? Exactly? I understand? All right? John
(32:07):
from St. Louis writes, and he says, Hey, I heard
Brian Filly do an update on it, your competitor over
at CBS the other day. Does that mean he's off Fox?
Is that? I don't know? If that maybe you misheard?
Do you think I don't think he's I don't I
don't think that was Brian. Maybe it was some special
tennis update. Yeah, I mean he does do some like
(32:28):
U c l A programming. Maybe he got picked up
by uh CBS affiliate or something like that. I don't
I don't know, but I would set its phony stuff.
It didn't happen, right, Scott from northern Kentucky writes, and
he says, hey, Ben and Danny g Uh. He says,
checking in, I had emailed recently about moving from King
(32:49):
Newsome's Republic. You asked me to update how it is
compared to California. Yeah, I did. I remember that, and
Scott reports he absolutely loves it. Kentucky says, gas check
this out there, he gasses under three dollars. You don't
see homeless camps everywhere you go. He says. He works
in Cincinnati, and you don't see it there either. So
(33:11):
I do have a question for you and Danny g
in your years, but I guess traveling with the Dodgers
being around the players, did you ever walk in on
anyone in a compromising position, catch a player with a
female fan other than their significant other? He says, that's
the question for me, and then for I'll wait, I'll
(33:32):
give the one for you in a second, but answer that, uh,
absolutely all right. I was a naive young man from
Orange County, California. I had no idea the kind of
debauchery that these guys were involved in on the road.
I had heard stories, but I did get to travel
(33:53):
a little bit with the Dodgers. And you know, this
was in the days before social media. This was in
the days but for dating websites and all that. So
it was a stone age and Danny, it was an
eye opening experience. We would we would get into cities
at in the middle of the night and let's just say,
(34:14):
there would be uh women, beautiful, all dolled up women
in at three thirty four in the morning waiting at
the hotel lobby for certain guys. I don't know how
they just knew the team was gonna show up at
that time. I have no idea, but it was. It
was interesting. And yeah, I mean there were there were
(34:34):
guys that hooked up with fans. There were It did
it didn't happen, But we don't kiss and tell right, well,
I didn't kiss any I wish I had kiss him.
I didn't kiss anybody. I do remember that I loved
I would always go when the Dodgers played the Mats.
I had made the New York Swing and one of
my fond memories we were at a nightclub in Manhattan.
(34:57):
And this is kind of an outdated story now, but uh,
it was. It was, you know, obviously during the Stommers,
like in August, and it was very hot in New
York in Manhattan. We're hanging out doing our thing and
we're getting ready to leave, and one of the guys said, Hey,
there's this guy that plays for the Clippers. I was
to cover the Clippers and it was Malik Seeley, who
(35:18):
had played at St. John's and I I walked by
my Malik and he recognized me and we talked for
a few minutes and it was great. It was really cool.
He passed away a few years after that in the
Drunk Driver Killed. He was na played pretty good NBA player,
bounced around, kind of a journeyman. But I remember running
into him like it was like two worlds colliding. Danny
(35:40):
was like the baseball world in the basketball world, we're colliding,
like in Manhattan. It was. It was a weird deal.
But I guess he's from He was from New York,
so that was his home. I remember Malik. He was
a good basketball player. Yeah, it's a pretty good players,
like small forward and I was played with the Timberwolves
and then got was killed by a drunk driver. Uh
(36:00):
tragically obviously. Uh. Scott also says enjoying Danny Gee even
though he's a Fader fan and thinks pineapple is okay
on pizza. He says, Yeah, I hope to eventually meet
you guys at a meet and greet in Cincinnati so
I can buy you an adult Any plans to go
(36:21):
to Cincinnati? Is that on your list? Danny? You know,
I wouldn't mind. We could hang out with our boy
Andy Furman, right, we could go to a mansion party
with Joe Burrow, eat some chili with Justin and just
Shosh and those guys. Yeah. Even the guys that are
from there though, have told me that they think the
(36:41):
Skyline Chili is a little overrated. It's a marketing gimmick
and a little bit I had it. I thought it
was good, But you know, I guess we all kind
of have something that our area is known for, and
sometimes people there's so much build up, kind of like
a Dodger dog. There's so much build up that somebody
will come in from out of town and they'll have
(37:02):
it and it's good, but it's not what they thought
it was gonna be. Yeah, Well I learned when I
went to Boston and I had the Finway Monster Dog.
Greatest hot dog I've ever had a ballpark, amazing hot dog,
better than the Dodger dog. In fact, there's a listener
in Cambridge that is a big fan of the show
and he does a great mitzvah. Every year. He'll send
(37:23):
me a box of authentic monster dogs that you can
get at the grocery store in Boston, and he'll send
him overnight, and so I can enjoy the wonderful hot
dogs when I'm watching the baseball games. Should I feel guilty, Danny,
when I'm watching the Dodgers, I'm meaning a Finway Monster Dog,
and I think it's a better hot dog nor And
(37:44):
I was there the first year he sent those to
the crew and you yeah, you remember, Yeah, I got dude,
I grilled him up. Uh. They were delicious. Yeah, they
were really good. I think the thing with Dodger dogs,
and now it's changed because the company who makes them
has changed. There were two versions, right almost like the
microwaveable version wasn't as juicy, and there were two different
(38:06):
types in the same stadium. Once in a while, you'd
get a Dodger dog and it just hit the spot
and it felt like the most delicious thing you've had
in a while. And there there were other times where
you got it and you were just kind of let down. Yeah,
it's it's well. I like a grilled dog, like a
grilled hot dog. I don't like a boiled dog. That's disgusting.
And I remember when the early days, when I first
(38:27):
started coming the Dodgers, they had a chef named Walt,
and this old guy who had been there probably since
the team moved to l A. And I was, hey, Walt,
can you burn up my dogs? And he'd do it.
I tipped him a couple of bucks and he'd burned
the dogs up and they were in large back in
those days. But see, that's what I'm talking about. Every
dog at the stadium should be made like that. That's
(38:48):
what I'm saying. I agree with you, all right, Big Greg,
and I will let's be the last morning we're getting
little long on this, Big Greg and I well, maybe
you one more Big Greg in Iowa and Danny G.
He's just been in. Danny G. How much money do
we need to get out of Ben's bank account to
pay Scotch Shapiro to keep Brian Finley off of the
updates when Eddie is off, or to pay him to
(39:09):
get Robbie the Mariner fan as his replacement. And we
can't explain how or why we have access to Ben's
bank account. Well, you really wouldn't be impressed if you
saw my bank account. Yeah, he says Danny ge what
would have been your worst experience dejaying a party? He
wants to know us from Big Greg in Iowa. I
(39:32):
was on my This was a few years ago. I
want to say maybe four or five years ago. I
drove up to northern California to play a reunion for
a class that had graduated in the mid nineties. So
they wanted some hip hop, some country. They wanted to
mix it up with music from the nineties, and I
(39:52):
kind of specialized in that. I have a huge library
from the nineties. So I'm on my way up there.
Ben problem. There was a heat way going on through
the Central Valley. It was a hundred and ten hundred
and twelve degrees through Fresno. I remember I was packing
my Vinyl on ice like I had an igloo in
(40:13):
my car, but it was to keep electronics and the
control records from melting. My leather seats were melting when
I stopped in Fresno. So I get to Modesto, California,
where this party was gonna be held. Half my equipment,
including my main hard drive, was toast. Oh, everything was
(40:35):
on the fritz. My two control records were warped. I
had to go to automatic settings and I pulled that
gig out of my aspen because a lot of my
gear got ruined just due to the heat. Yeah. That sucks. Uh,
that's brutal. I do not recommend doing outdoor gigs in
(40:59):
the Control Valley or northern California during the heat wave
of the summer. No, that's an oven in Fresno, Bakersfield,
the central part of California. Holy Connoli, Man, that is
a freaking That's a microwave? Is what that is? All right? Uh?
I said that was the last. Well, there's another one
(41:19):
that caught my attention, he said. Kevin in Cansa got mail, yea,
I got mail. Yeah down, Calm down, dummy, Kevin in
Kansas says, dear Ben, how would you describe your show
to someone who hasn't heard it yet? I tried, but
it's hard to describe all of you guys, he says,
(41:44):
I don't know how it's a It starts as a
sports show and then it just talks about random, random crap.
That's it's the show about nothing. But I don't know.
How would you describe the show, Danny, I don't really know.
You've been on the show for years. I not sure
how you would sum it up in a few lines.
It's it's unlike, how about this, it's unorthodox sports talk radio.
(42:07):
It's not part of the orthodoxy. We we kind of
mock sports talk radio in a way. A lot of
the things that we do we poke fun at the
the regular people that do sports radio. Yeah, it's definitely
against the grain, and it's listener driven, which is a
lot of fun games. And drops is something I explained
to like my mom when I first joined your show.
(42:30):
I speaking of northern California. I remember visiting her there
back in like when I first was helping on your
show in January of that year, and she asked me
to explain, well, what do you mean by drops? What
are those? And so I explained it to her and
explained how we used them, and she got the biggest
kick out of that, She's like, you get to do
(42:50):
that every night. I'm actually on the live. Yes, you're
on and you get paid for that. You're like that,
but not much in us. And when I told her
what the most famous drops were and how I waited
for the perfect time to play them and how timing
(43:10):
was everything, she thought that was the coolest thing. So
to this day, when I check in with my mom,
she's like, any good drops, any new drops? That's great.
That's uh, that's good to hear. Well, yeah, Kevin, thank you,
And you know, just give it a shot, tell you
give it a give it a week, yeah, you know,
give it a few days. See if you like. I'm not.
(43:32):
We didn't have time to get to the question from
Lugo in Lancaster, California, Blind Emmett, Tom from Fullerton, Chris
from Des Moines, Lord goofa. So sorry about that, you guys,
try again next week. We'll post a link on Tuesday,
right usually Tuesday, we post a link on my Facebook page,
(43:53):
the show Facebook page Ben Mallow Show. We can send
questions in to Danny here myself on Twitter and we
may may you them on the show. So I have
a great rest of your time, in Vegas, Danny and
go Rams go. I was just gonna yeah, I was
just gonna ask you how you feeling. Are you nervous? No?
I actually think they're gonna get it done. I don't know.
Now they played the Chiefs in the Super Bowl, well
(44:15):
the Chiefs of the top team and homes top guy.
But I don't know if I could handle another Rams
lost in the Super Bowl like they did against That
was a That was a real kick in the nuts
when they lost to the Patriots a few years ago.
But now I think they're going. I think they're going
to the super Bowl. First time ever a team has
hosted the NFC Championship game that could then host the
Super Bowl. It's never happened before, and I'd love to
(44:39):
see it, so I obviously I'm a little biased on that. Oh.
I just got an alert on my phone. Ben cam
Akers just dropped his breakfast sandwich on very funny screw
you all right, screw you keep been in a fumble today.
You imagine that they have a lead, they're melking the
clock and cam Akers bug on the rug. No. Anyway,
have a great night night, and I'll be back to
(45:01):
break everything down in the Magic radio box, terrestrial radio
back on the old FM AM dial depending on where
you listen, and the I Heart app at eleven pm
in the West on Sunday night, two am in the
East on Monday morning, and we'll take you through the overnight,
so we'll catch you then and thank you Danny, good job.
Go gamble, you gotta murder, I gotta go.
