Speaker 1 (00:00):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
This is the world famous Ben and Skin Show ninety
seven point one.
Speaker 1 (00:04):
The Eagle. Glad to have you in the mix today.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Okay, I sent you guys a picture just now, and
it may have been inappropriate to send to you guys.
It's a lady on a tennis court and she is
she is. The camera's behind her, and she's walking away
and she's scratching her butt and she appears to not
be wearing any undergarments. She's got a white tennis dress on,
(00:29):
she's got a tennis racket, she's got a white hat on.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
She's at a tennis court. Now.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
I stumbled across this while scrolling social media today. And
the reason this is significant is I had this poster
on my wall for most of my childhood. Really, I
remember this poster and I'm assuming you bought it on
your own.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
It's Spencer Gifts, I think so.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
However, I'm not on this one. I'm not positive. I
believe you're accountant Brenton Burton. Oh okay, I think he
might have had this poster and I wanted it and
I had I traded him a polo for it.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
I think.
Speaker 2 (01:11):
So. Back in the day, my mom would provide me
with it was like her favorite thing was to buy
us polo shirts, right, and so for me it became
a trade currency, right because you had a lot of them.
Because your mom would not have bought you this poster.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
She would not have bought me that poster. I'm dying
to know what.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
Some of the other photographs from this session were, because
not only is she wearing a seat through white dress
with no panties, she's not wearing a bra, that's true.
We don't know what her face looks like, and we
don't know if she ever bent down to pick up
a tennis ball, and we don't know what the other
front stuff's looks right, Okay, but this is late seventies,
so the other front stuff, yeah, was probably growing everywhere. Okay, So, like,
(01:54):
is this in itself an offensive picture?
Speaker 1 (01:58):
No, Christie, it's not.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
It doesn't look like she's scratching anything. No, she's just
placing her hand gently. Well what's she doing then, She's
just placing her hand on her butt for what reason?
Speaker 1 (02:11):
To show cheek? Yeah? Okay, so like she's lifting, she's
doing a thick check.
Speaker 2 (02:15):
Okay, So is this picture okay to post on social media?
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah? God, yes, are you on iheartart.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
This isn't put it on Ben Roger, right, I know,
but that's what I'm saying. It's too edgy for iHeart
to post. I have a feeling Elliot's okay with it.
I don't know about some of the other.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
People, though, I will say there are some girls on
Instagram that wear bathing suits more revealing than this.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
Yeah. Right, you don't say anything that's a different color.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
So I stumbled across this and I sent it to
my brother and I was like, dude, I cannot believe
this nostalgia that just hit me. This is taking me
down memory lane. I had this in my room my
entire childhood, and he was like, I remember that, and
that does not make sense, Like, at what age is
this okay to at a tennis butt on your wall.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
I'm also dying to know what she's going to do
with that racket.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
So I just think in the era that we grew
up with, it was sort of accepted that we were
going to objectify hot women in our suburban bedrooms. I
was a six year old that had the Fara Fawcet
poster where she was Nippley.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
You're six, Yeah, think about that. You're sick.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
And my mom said I would go in there and
just stare at it with my mouth hanging open. I
remember my friend Steven McDaniel, who you know, I'm sure
he was gay at the time, but we just found
out later he was gay. But his brother next door
had the bo Derreck poster from Bo Derek did the
(03:45):
Tarzan movie. And so there's a poster from the movie
Tarzan where bo Derek is like, I think she's tied
to something and just her right boob is just hanging out.
So it's a poster of her from the movie and
she's like tied to a stone or something and just
her right cans just sitting there. And he had it
out in his room. Yeah, and I would walk in
(04:07):
there all the time just stare at it. Right.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Steven didn't care. We had like we had like every
once in a while.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
We lived on a creek, and so for Katie and
Christina who are from the country, it's a creek and
there was these giant sewage pipes that would flow the
rain into this creek and you could always walk down
into one about twenty yards and find a playboy.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Oh.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Now, we're a hustler, like a rotation like, oh, I
don't know, I kind of have a you know, in
some yards they have like a free book thing, right,
is that with thety mag same thing? Yeah, so you
mean a hustler magazine, not an actual hustler. They just
got washed down. I'm talking about sewer porn. Yeah okay,
and it was always in there, but now kids go
to the Internet and whatnot like that. You don't need
(04:50):
stuff like that. But you know this picture, it's crazy
that this was on my wall. She's revealing thetox, right,
and I wonder what your mom would think when she
would go up there to put up the recently washed
and dried polos.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Right, okay, so let's just talk about this picture now.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
I want our listeners to envision it, and maybe if
I get the courage, I'll post it on Well, if
I can't post it on iHeart, you post on yours.
The same problems that would exist on iHeart exist for me.
Don't you remember from your corporate training. It's all the same.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
No, no, no, no, that is.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
That's all the exact same. What emoji describes this? Okay,
I may have to blur out her batox. Yeah I
think so, butts are legal. I don't know that they are.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
This is kind of like that Pink Floyd picture with
all the women you just but I like that, Okay?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
But is this?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
Is this practical? And is this to play tennis in
with no undergarments? And is it pervy of the guy
whoever took this pic?
Speaker 1 (05:42):
Here? She is just enjoying herself playing tennis. Some guys
taking pictures as she walks away of her butt?
Speaker 2 (05:47):
And is it okay to send to a coworker like
I just did to all three of you guys? These
are all questions that may not be answered today. I'm
gonna post this picture on social media.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
Do it?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Go to at nine seven to one The Eagle on
Instagram to find out if I have the balls to
post it there?
