Speaker 1

If you thought more hours a day, minutes a week was enough, I 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, to clearinghouse of hot takes, break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now that it does. We are in the air everywhere bloviating eight days a week, eight days a week. This is obviously a spinoff of the radio show.

It's been a wacky weekend though in the podcast world, because this is the only podcast this weekend where together united. The Sunday Mailbag podcast from West of the four oh five. David, I'm a cloud mores pin, w wild and crazy, and I think the crowd is excited that you are actually in the house for two consecutive days. You go from

Saturday to Sunday. I'm really enthusiastic about this. Well, I would like to thank you, guess, as you know, I on the Saturday podcast, which I did alone, I explain what has been going on in my life here and I recently moved to the I call it the halfway house because it's halfway between my my last house and my next house, which is being renovated right now. And so I'm in a temporary situation. And everything has been walking wonky and crazy. But you know, it's not walking

and crazy. The mail bell boy, the mail bag is not wonky crazy. And I hear from sources, gas Gun, that you you like the mail bag you even though people just kill you and destroy you. And I have noticed going through the mail that a lot of a lot of hate mixed with a couple of a couple of plants, a couple of plants, team Gascon going in there and doing that thing. But for the most part it's been all negative, with a few exceptions. So I want to get right now. I don't want to waste

any time. Yes, I don't want to waste any time. To me, this is my favorite podcast of the weekend, okay, because it's the last. All Right, I'm a pilot, writes in from Parts Unknown. He says, catching up on the Sunday mail Bag and listening to YouTube muppets food phobias, he's re frank to the last Sunday podcast that we did prior to this one. Obviously, had me shaking my head. That's my line. You can't shake your head. I'm allowed

to shake my head. He says. I do most of the cooking at home, and my five year olds have a better food path than you do. Uh. He says, and rare or medium rare is the only choice when cooking steak. No, that's wrong, you're wrong. I'm a pilot. It's well done with ketchup or a one sauce. That is the way to eat a steak, I says. The last fourth of July cooking steaks, my girls said well done, and I made them go to do Oklahoma drills. That's well,

that's good parenting, good parenting. I'm a pilot, I said, Seeing how you are a nonpracticing Jew, that is true. Uh. Not eating pork in itself is blasphemy. We'll blame my parents because I didn't need it when I was a kid. It's just one of those things I haven't done it as I never had a cup of coffee. That's just kind of how how that goes, he says, going through life with no bacon, it's God's candy. He says, this

is true, guest, gun is bacon God's candy. Yeah, I think you would enjoy it, and if you dip down into the depths of of meat, especially at breakfast Britto. We're in California. I think it's it's well accustomed for those that were early morning or late night like you do breakfast, brittle eggs. I think love the breakfast. You love the breakfast the biggest thing. You should open a

restaurant and just serve breakfast. Burrito. You know what. I'm a fan of the larger tortillas, especially when you get to double wrap your burritos. We don't have many places, so you are when it comes to burritos. You're a size queen when it comes to brito. Yes, you know sizes. Size matters. Bellor, I thought it was the motion in the ocean. I thought that was there. It's that's all about size, Okay, is that right? I didn't know. I

guess you're hanging out with an interesting crowd there, He says. Uh, I'm a pilots as his kids his girls are routinely eat their weight and bacon and would gnaw your hand if you tried to take away there. Berkshire pork Job bowed in no less, because I'm raising winners. Not participants, says David Berkshire. Pork is the co be of pork added to your shopping list. I'll have to do that. I feel like that was a really emasculating email from I'm a pilot, very rare that he will take a

shot at me. But I will respond, and I will. It's not done the email. This is a long email. Just no, no seafood, no sushi. I will eat cod beer, battered cod fish sticks. I'll eat that. He says. How can you how you can live on planet Earth where seventy percent of it is ocean? Got a good point. Then he says, that's God's supermarket with a lot of God references here. You love Boston, that's true. I do love Boston. I almost worked if I did work there, but I almost moved there. It was offered a job

in Boston a couple of times, he says. But will will not taste the greatness of the lobster roll or fresh shucked oysters. No, I I well the idea of the oysters texture. I wouldn't want to eat oysters just on the texture alone. Looking at them, Yeah, I don't want to eat them, he said, a big bowl of steam clams, grilled shrimp or props. No, that sounds disgusting. That texture of fish is the problem. The smell and the texture. Beer battered fish sticks are like eating chicken fingers,

So it doesn't really bother me. It's like dipping in tartar sauce, put some whatever else on it, and you're good to go. Everything but ranch, right, No ranch, he says, Like I'm a pass Like I tell my kids, try everything three times, including vegetables. Trying taking asparagus from them. You would get shived, he said. That's what he said, s HIV eating. I'm I'm throwing down a fought law to you guys to change up your menu selections and venture out at least one new food a week and

report back. Wow, that's what he says. That's a challenge. What's in it like for for me? I think I think bacon is the easiest one for you to do. What's the carrot on the end of the stick, though, what's the carrot on the end of the I don't know. I'm a pilot, a craft you guy, he's probably your most prominent caller, listener, um interactor. Just having his respect. I think that's what stopped stopping. You're such a toe sucker, it's so embarrassing, he said. Also here, by the way,

he took another shot at you. I'm a pilot. He's turning on you, He says. I showed my kids both your pictures and said, these guys don't like seafood. They asked if you always were picked last, and said tell them to get the sand out of their panties and

that the kid's table is in the other room. Well, for the record, I'm a pilot, and for your your kids, Um, when I was young, when I was when I was young before fourteen, I was typically picked middle to last, and then hit the gross spurt when I was always picked first after that. So no, I was picked last because I was fat. So you know, you play soccer handball, you don't want the fat kids rustling Kansas right soon says I love the podcast for over a year now,

but I just can't tolerate Gagon's extreme ego anymore. I don't care if he was actually the greatest person that ever was, which he clearly is not. Russell says, just don't act that arrogant. He complains constantly about your toe lickers, as he calls them. Thankfully he doesn't have many of his ego or his Egolas says, would wouldn't fit in the universe. So sad to say goodbye to the podcast. We have lost Russell in Kansas because of you guests. Now we have lost a podcast. That's a download that

we have lost. But here's a good thing though. We have a new category because with Russell leaving, that means we go from boot liquors to a nut hugger. Russell as a full fledged nut hugger of Ben Mallary. No, no, if he was a nut hugger, he would continue to listen to the podcast, listen to you. He's not going anywhere. But he said, he just says he's called him a liar. Yeah, I'm calling him a liar, an egomania, calling a guy a lot. For the record, liar, Yeah, he is a

he is a liar. But for the record, he should acknowledge the fact that it is about me, Like he is listening for us and I am on this stupid podcast, so it is about me. What else you did do? Wait? What else are you gonna do? In Kansas? Kansas is a great place on God's green Earth. It's a lot of God fearing people in Kansas, a lot of good, hard working people. That's the bread basket as part of the bread basket of America. Boy, Kansas, and you're you're

shipping all over Kansas. That's a bad job by you. Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the I Heart Radio. A moving on, we gotta go quick, rabbit tat tat. I'm gonna be as many as we can. Kevin in Kansas, right so, and he says, Ben and day, once again, you're a podcast,

continue to inform and entertain. So here's a guy in Kansas that likes the podcast. Is there a butt coming in here? I've noticed that both of you have vast experiences covering or calling a variety of sports. What kind of prep do you have to do to be competent or better at broadcasting or writing about lacrosse or other such sports? Yeah, well, that that's the equivalent of speaking Chinese or Russian. Uh. The sport of lacrosse. I just I don't know much about it. I've seen it a

few times. I had friends that played lacrosse. But lacross is not big where I grew up. I know in the Northeast the crosses is very big. But like anything, if I were to be assigned a big television deal to broadcast lacrosse, then I would do my copious amounts of research and try to become a savant in lacrosse. What's the I did soft but I was in college. I did softball. That was odd, but it was just

like baseball. It was a softball. When he's referencing what I mentioned last week, I had called a championship lacrosse match in Tustin in your neck of the woods, Oh yeah, that's right. Well I'm from just across the way from Tustin and Irvine, North Part Yeah. I so, okay, I guess he's asking you then, Yes, what did you do? A lacrosse expert? I'm not an across expert, but I'm familiar with the game. Called it pretty pretty decently. I think the challenge will be um this tonight. I think

the challenge will be tonight. I'm calling my first game for the European League of Football. And so the majority of the players on these rosters are from Germany, Poland and Spain. So not the game traveling to Germany. No, I'll be doing things uh in studio remotely, yeah, remotely, but the pronunciations of these guys will be a kick in the ass. Here's what you do. What's all right? Number twelve drops back, throws the number over the middle.

That's the first the big german. Uh, you could have some fun to see if anyone is actually paying attention. You could like it's like I had a program director tell me that, you know, sometimes the phone is when I when I used to be desperate for call, not I don't really care. I mean I take calls, but

I don't really need them. But I remember I first started your your dependent on phone calls, and I had a program director said this have been if no one's calling, if you want to see if they're listening, there's two things you can do. You can either you can either curse and then the people will get upset, or you can make a mistake intentionally and then have people call up to try to correct you. And hand to god, it's it's kind of like the the trope of the Internet.

You know how they say about the internet. If you want to get an answer to something, give the wrong answer right. People love to correct you. And it's true with the radio, like if you make a mistake, they love to call up and correct the idiot on the radio. Can't get enough of it. Love it, love it, love it, love it, love it. Uh. Let's see here, who do we have august ones from? Should I say the name of this? Maybe I'll give the name at the end. Ben,

I have listened to your Overnight show for years. I have been loyal, supportive, and appreciative of the content and effort of the crew to make the show better than the best. I have listened to the Fifth Hour podcast since its inception. I find David a worthy opponent to your argumentative ways. He has creative, loyal, and supportive building

your brand. However, the Benn Maller Show in the Fifth Hour have gone off the third rail so many times with the content and the guest you have interviewed that I have come to realize, how dare you tease me with this greatness? Put time limits on your untouchable content? How dare you stir the pot and offer an honest,

differing opinion on taboo subjects. The nerve you and David have to rock the boat with topics and guests who provide enlightening conversations so that I can question topics, educate myself, and emphasize with situations and individuals. How dare you if the fifth hour podcast at the Ben Mallow Show stopped this off? The high volters third real content, I may have to quit listening signed what do you think wrote that? Well? The fact that that thing was nice and eloquent, succinct

and well thought out. I would say it's one of your more coherent your listeners and callers, someone that has teeth um some of that doesn't have needles in their arms. I'm gonna go to Tammy from Montown almost like almost like you've seen that email before, almost like you told

her to send all the listeners that we have. You guess Tammy and Montana ding Ding Ding ding Ding just been exposed that you've just been Paint's just been paying basically a handful of people that actually right thoughtful into an email. I'm a pilots one of them. She's another, And I think what blind Scott maybe blank Scott. Yeah, I have noticed that when blind Scott's been battling some some demons. But when he's back with the demons, he calls the show every day. When he's not on the demons,

he kind of just forgets about us. He hangs out with his dog Dylan, and that's it. Kyrie in Okay See writes, and he says, Hey, Betty the Bopper, I love Jed who fled as a caller. There's the one guy that loves Jed who fled as a caller. He is one of my favorites. I listened to the game show the other night, and how mad you you get when you lose the game shows? He says. It's freaking hilarious to hear another sore loser like myself. I'm not a sore loser, Kyrie, he says. I. Kyrie says, though,

I am one of the worst in the world. I once put my uncle out of my house over a video game. Video game, I don't know, he didn't say. He says he's serious, though, what sports moment or radio moment has angered you the most in your life? The same question for gag On two. I like the West of the Four Oh five responses, what's go ahead? I'm gonna guess that it was Game five of the seventeen

World Series with Kershaw on the bump. Uh No, I was actually Game seven or it was just the most annoyed you know, because I come in people love to bust my balls, and I bust people's balls, and I get it. But the Clippers blowing the lead against the Rockets when they were going to the Western Conference they were gonna win the game, go to the Western Conference finals against Golden State, and they had a double digit lead. They're up like fifteen points like that late third quarter.

I'm leaving Staples Center. People I've known for fifteen years plus, twenty years plus are like, they know I like the Clippers are like, give me high fives, congratulations. Great moment for the Clippers. By the time I get to the studio, the Clippers that lost the I I think I told

you this. The worst moment I ever had. Was my first on air opportunity was San Diego State basketball the game day host, and the opening segment was also the first play out of the TV time out where Joe Flacco burn raheem more over the top to Jacobe Jones in that playoff game and through its seventy yards. Being a huge Bronco fan, I saw that on live TV in my studio while I'm on air. I wanted to I wanted to punch somebody. It's absolutely awf Yeah, yeah,

you know. I I just a lot of the radio stuff, like I get frustrated when the equipment doesn't work, I start throwing stuff. But a lot of that's out of my control. Yeah, so I I've come to grips with that. Um. But the sports stuff, I mean, when you think something's gonna go one way and then it just you know, shot, just brutal, even if you have money on the ann

Wars now, Uh, Barry, that's true. Berry from Nashville, Yo Yo, mob Benny in a In the recent months, it seems like there has been a lot of songs, awesome songs written for your show. Why do you think that has happened all of a sudden. Uh, well, Bart, I'll answer that. I think there's a couple of things in play here. We've been playing the songs more now. We've had songs

written off and on sporadically for years. We had Tammy and Montana and Rod the Ambassador of Bakersfield collaborated on a tune that was professionally done and we played that a lot. And we've had a few others, but I really give credit to Jay Scoop and Just Josh. Those two guys have collaborated on a number of songs and they've been so good and so professionally done that we've had Raz quit the band who's also a musician in Minnesota, and he's he started to put songs out really quick.

Raditat hat you have like three songs in a row, and so there's like this rivalry of people putting songs out. And then we've the Talent Show. Every year we get a couple of songs that are that are out, that are that are pretty exciting. Uh. Berry also says, as a contributing member of the podcast since day one, I really appreciate you having my payments being switched from checks to direct deposit. It really is more convenient and hits my bank account much faster. Well, I'm glad to help

you out, Barry of Christia. We we do not have anyone that is on the show or send an email who doesn't get paid wink wink not not so Yeah, we have a big budget here. This is like a high high budget Morning Zoo. Uh uh aiming in your Belinda in so Cap in North O. Have you ever been to your Belinda? Yeah? Out there? Yeah uh, It says big Ben, I love you in the show. I've been a listener since the old Benn and Dave days,

while I'm back with a different Dave. Uh Benn in Dave of the old his radio show, he says, I used to love the way you guys would torture Lee Klein at the end of your show during the cross like, oh that was fun. Lee would get so frustrated and annoyed because Lee and we've had him on this podcast, but Lee would Lee thought like, you know, he did highbrow radio, and that myself and Dave Smith when we did the show, we appealed to the unwashed, you know,

the losers. But he had an adult, mature audience and of course was all bullshit. Um, you know, he's he had the same people listening to him that we're listening to us. He just he in his head, he had this neurosis like, oh, I'm you know, I'm more mature than these idiots. These guys are doing nonsense radio and all that stuff shock jock radio. Uh, he says, what happened your old partner, David his league Klins still alive? Wow,

Lee is still alive. I check in with Lee. We had him on the podcast, as I said, aim and and Lee is still He's retired, he's not working right now, living living a good life. And David Smith is working in radio. He's got a weekend radio show at A I would give the name, i'd plug it. I don't, off the top of my head remember the name of the network. It's A it's a smaller outfit. But he's got a radio show on the weekends. And uh so he's he's still working actively in the business, and uh,

from what I understand, is doing pretty well. So well. I'm happy for him, and we should get him on the podcast at some point, but we haven't been able to work that out. Well, since you wanted to plug him, why don't you actually plug Friday's episode with me and Ryan Harris? I thought I did a great job Bronco Fani with a former Bronco player. You know, it was well rounded minutes, great content, hard hitting questions. We should

have called that one the sixth hour. Why should call it because that's not the fifth the fifth Hour with Ben Maller. It's not the fifth Hour with Gascon and a Denver Bronco that used to play. Because you love the Broncos so much, you tracked out a Bronco. Was just gonna tell the audience during that episode that you were in the recovery room, you were getting your m R I had done on your knee with your torn a c l you and your boyfriend Hitle Leonard. I

just yeah, listen, that's why they play the games. Well, man, that's why they play the games. And uh, guys get hurt. Kauai. You knew when you signed Kauai that he was injury prone. I'm not like devastated by it. I mean, this was a possibility. Its people are like, oh man, you're gonna be so up. I'm not upset. I'm upset. I'm not up.

I mean, this is it. I mean it. Actually, the whole Kauai injury thing makes it better because from my perspective, it's like, well, now it's just you've just in your head lost and if the Clippers would like come back and and win or something like that, then that's amazing. And what an embarrassment would be for the Utah Jazz, which is probably just not gonna happen. So yeah, I mean it's fine. It's you know, you have no chance without Ka, I don't win a championship. So that's fine.

That's what I can deal with that. And I've been very consistent on It's like, you know, injuries are part of it. They're not robots. And you got I need to rant about this the other night about Lebron. What a dummy Lebron is told to do because the short and season. Yeah, Kawhile Leonards stepping awkwardly on you know someone, or Kyrie Irving coming down on Janice A, Denta Coombo, U Joel and Bead who's always hurt getting hurt it's Alope because they came back too soon. Yeah, sure, Lebron,

do your homework, Lebron. James Harden out of shape trying to play his way into shape is not the NBA's vault. But Lebron's got all the answers. She's so smart with his high school diploma that he knows everything that's going on in the world. My god. All right, moving on. This one's from Helen and Stu and Palmetto Bay, Florida. Where is that at in Florida? It's beautiful. You've never been to Palmetto Bay, No, I have not. I've only been to I've been to Miami. I've been to Tampa.

I've been to St. Petersburg. You've just been to the Big seen you do Orlando? I bet I've been to Orlando? Have you? You've not been? Yeah, I've been. Well, I was there for spring training, so I drove. The Dodges were in Vero Beach. We flew into Orlando and drove all over the God's Green Earth in Florida. But Palmetto Bay is actually in the Miami Dad, It's it's in that area. It's uh, I'm looking at photos of It's pretty nice. It's pretty nice. Not far from Key Biscayne there.

Um yeah, solid, I'd live there anyway. Helen and Steu says, why bother doing the Fifth Hour podcast when all that disloyal David Gascon does his sabotage your two tin cans and string audio? Good point. Yeah, Well, I've often said, Helen and Stu that the most important thing, there's two things that are important in broadcasting. The most important is to actually be able to hear the broadcast. I have

learned over the years. If if you the listener has to work to hear what the broadcast is saying, you're not gonna listen. And the other thing we learned from John sterling sell the soap. You've got to sell the soap. So advertising is you could say it's number one, because other than that you're just doing free stuff. But if you can't hear the broadcast, what's the point of doing the broadcast? Uh? And Helen and Steu signed fire guests

on and replace him with Roberto whoam? Do you think she wrote this after or before she put on her diapers and her husband's Wow, what are you doing in Florida? You know you weren't diapers for years. I don't know what you're playing about a little bit. Glenn in Chicago writes, and he says, what do you guys hate more junk email or junk mail? Yeah, j junk email is easy, just delete, delete. You know you gotta spam folder. Nobody deal.

I just I don't like the fact that they, you know, with credit cards or with any kind of advertisers, the junk mail they become. They come in these large envelopes and letters, and you've spent a lot of money for business expenses to get these things out there. Well, my parents, my mom ran a mailing service and most of her business was drunk mail from realtors. That that was bulk mail service. Because that was you'd have title and estro companies.

So yeah, we had. I can't say when I was in like junior high and high school how many stickers I put on, like some flyers that because I was before the internet was big, and that's the only way you could get the word out is you just mass mailed junk mail to people, hoping that people, you know, a few people would respond. Glenn in Chicago writes in Beautiful Deep Dish Chicago Pizza. I only had it for the first time a few years ago, Game Changers. Game Changer.

I didn't think I would like it because the tomato sauce on top of amazing, it is amazing. They do it right, Glenn and Chicago says, what do you guys hate more? Actually, he continues the email. He says, when will gag On realize you are great and suck your toes? When will that happen? Guess you're laughing. I have good toes have big toes, big toes, crusted toes. I have a lot of callous on my feet from walking around barefoot.

Now after your after your better half almost ditched you last week for condemning Ranch, do you think she would ever consider licking your toes? Well, I you know, I keep what happens in the bedroom in the bedroom guest, and I know you'd like to get out of there. But but no, she wasn't. On a serious note, Glenn says, I want to say thank you for your energy and the laughs on air and on the podcast. My father passed away back in March from brain cancer. He opted

out of treatment. The most horrific last six months of my life and and his. But thank you for the great monologues and laughs. I extend the thank you to Coop, Roberto, Eddie and even Gascon. I'll even include Jonas Knox and Brady Quinn on that. Really the only times I smiled and laughed. Well, thank you, Glenn. You said you've been

listening to me since five ish. I appreciate that. I my dad passed away suddenly this year, as you know, my mom had cancer though, so I went through that a little bit she had breast answer, she beat that, actually had she had cancer three times? She beat it three times. The fourth time kotor uh, but yeah, she it had spread to her liver the last time. So I dealt with that. And I know how how horrific it is to go to hospice. And you know, you

don't know, I mean the cooling my mom did. And I think she did this intentionally when she When my mom went to hospice, they said, well, you know, she she might have you know, five months, maybe six, you know, who knows, he might be less than that. She lasted eleven days in hospice, and I think that's since she realized I'm not gonna get get out of here. Might as well, I don't want these kids to suffer, and she she checked out. But um my condolences to you gone,

thank you for listening, and I do appreciate. I hope you'll continue to listen when things get better and things improved. Carlos in Houston, Texas writes and Bang Bang. He says, what is the origin story of Justin and Cincinnati? Also, did you guys have a crush on any teach hers back in the day? Now, I didn't have any hot teachers. I had one. I did not. I had a lot of older women and like I'm I'm saying older, I'm going real old. And I had dudes, So I went

on the dudes. But you know, for you, for those of you that are fine, Uh yeah I didn't. Yeah, I did not have any. I can't recall. Maybe a substitute occasionally would be hot and that would be exciting, but that would only last a day or two. My fourth grade teacher was really hot. Her name was Mrs tun t o n. She was extremely hot, cravaceous or just a beautiful, smart, beautiful smile. Yeah, she looked like an actress and she was. She actually had a She

was a bit, which probably made her hotter. Like she was that female dog. Yeah, no, she was. She had a serious attitude and I always got busted in her class. But see that's the con. I always hated women with attitude. I was like, you're not better than anybody, what are you doing? He did it. I think I'm attracted a woman with attitude and I can't stand it. I like the relatable human being, whether you're a guy or a girl. I don't need the I'm better than you know, it's

fuck you. You're not better than me. As far as Justin and Cincinnati, Justin's been listening for a very long time. He has had some odd jobs in Cincinnati. And I don't know what you what. I can tell he listens to Fox Sports Radio more than our management listens to Fox Sports radier guy. He listens all day and all night. He knows everything that happens. I don't think he sleeps. I think he might be a lizard person Justin and he's awake all the time, and he doesn't I don't know.

I do know that Justin has a ghoulish sense of humor. And he did work delivering picking up bodies, and famously he claims he picked up the wrong body. He was supposed to pick up a white guy's body from the hospital, picked up the black guy's body and it became a big didn't you didn't you tell me he tried having sex with that buddy? No, that's what you you said. I didn't necrophilia. Uh. This one was from Scott, formerly

from Rancho Cucamonga, Quas now in northern Kentucky. He says, Ben, first of all, I want to thank for your awesome cameo you did for my wife's birthday. Well, you're welcome, you wan uh as she tolerates your show better than most. I make her listen to it. It was hilarious and put a smile on her face. And I'm glactually like that. If you were to get a cameo from anyone past or present, who would it be from? I suppose Gagon can answer that to ha ha ha uh. It would

be somebody in radio that I you know. Jim Healy probably would be the guy, you know if he could bring him back from the dead, and I was a huge fan of his show. It's one of the influences why I got into radio. That would be that would be a big one. I ever got to meet him. I've been lucky enough to meet most everyone else in one way or another. That I him and Paul Harvey. I remember Paul Harvey. But Art Bell showed up at a Christmas party. I was a big fan of Art Bells.

I got an autograph from Howard String the book signing, so I didn't really meet him, but I get an autograph right in front of him anyway. Uh. He says love to show on the podcast, and he says new nickname, perhaps Captain Cameo. Captain Cameo, Yeah, I'm forget a cameo would be from Scully Vince Kelly would be I've had dinner with not that I'm bragging. All right, Now, here's the deal. So it's kind of a wonky schedule right

now because I'm in this halfway house situation. So we actually are going to record the podcast earlier next week. So if if you if I didn't use your email and I think it's good, I will use your posting in next week's mail bag. Okay, next week mail bag. Uh, So we'll do that. And then also in addition, if you you want to send in a new question, you do that, I'll put something up on Facebook. What probably Monday, I think Monday, or maybe I'll even do it today

And again, if you missed any of the weekend podcast, go back.

Give you the inside skinny. That's a that's an exclusive only on the podcast. I've

not talked about that on the radio show. And then it was all Gascon on Friday with one of his bff from the Broncos, Ryan Harris, former Notre Dame Fighting Irish offense tackle and motivational speaker, author champion of the Super Bowl winning team back in Super Bowl fifty of the Denver Broncos, gift by Cam Newton. Problem problem. But did net did Ryan in the podcast? I gotta go back and here did he mention how they pushed Peyton Manning's rotting carcass across the finish line that year? Did

they talk about that? Didn't get into any of that, but it is an enjoyable one. It was hard, oh sports talk, So I do apologize for those that were hard x is and OH sports talk.
