We thank you for finding the podcast, subscribing to the podcast, growing the number of downloads every single weekend. Here three podcast the week and the Saturday podcast. Right there in the middle. That's the good part of the sandwich. That's the good part of the sandwich, right there in the middle. And we are going to have some fun today. We are joined west of the four oh five back on

a Saturday. David Gascon is right over there. I am here, I am here, and um are you limping a little bit after what has transpired over the last week, week and a half span with your with your l A clippers, because wow, well I mean again, you know we're doing this on a Saturday. I we we don't know what happened on Friday night, so it's kind of tough to break that down. I think I'm looking forward to a game seven. Uh though, I'm pretty impressive performance by Kauai

in game game six. I'm sure you watch that, right, Paul George and the People's team there and well, it's like we record this on a Thursday, but I'm sure they played very well on a Friday night. Well, it's like a m C. I am all in on the Clippers in the game six. Now you're a Laker historian, you're west of the four oh five. You support the elitist Lakers. The one person enters the late. Of course, the Lakers. What a great season they had, let me

tell you, very impressive. They're that performance against the Sun's I think Lebron still walking. I don't know, maybe he's walking back to l A. I don't know. Look, gives him time to work on movies, now, right. I mean, that's that's really what the ultimate goal is. To bring it enough help and support and as soon as they break down, you just pull the rip chord and you are off into the entertainment. Realm. Yeah, he is stopping

stopping away. Uh, clearly clearly stopping away anyway. On the podcast this week, we've got Boom too, Benny pop Quiz, and I also have some random scientific we'll get scientifical if you will. Some things that I came across that we're intriguing. At least I found him intriguing scouring the web.

You know what intriguing is the mail? Um the mail It feels like Santa Claus weekly comes into Fox Sports Radio because well, I know, but I go in and out of the mail room on a weekly basis, and I can't believe the amount of mail boxes, envelopes, goodies that your fans send you. Well, you don't know. You don't know what is in the malight, I do not. You don't know unless you open the mail, which is

a federal crime to open the mail. You're not supposed to open another person's federal crime, so you shouln't do that. So you don't know what's in there. And I don't know what's in there until I opened the box and I see what's in the box. So and I don't even we don't even really have a mail room. The

mail room was moved. Yes, well it was moved for us, but they have a general mail room on the fifth floor, so I have to navigate up there and then look into some cubby holes and at times, at times you have boxes that have been sent to you by fans and it's like, wait a minute, this has been up here for how long before they actually bring it down in the lobby for us. Well, that's the problem with

the mail service. That's what people. I can email from people, Hey, I sent you something, and I'm like, well, I don't know. I didn't get it. I don't know where it is. I mean, I could try to find it, but it is unfortunate. But I do eventually get everything. It just might. I wouldn't send anything perishable. No, I would not send anything that will expire or anything like that. And I certainly wouldn't send any animal parts like Doc Mike assumed

with the bloody goathhead and all that stuff. I would avoid that because for a while in the early days of Fox Sports Radio, this goes back to probably two thousand four, two thousand five, you know, the network had been on the air for like four or five years. But Doc Mike would he would send goathheads. And one time, one time they thought they thought they had a like a body part, like a human body part, because it was like blood coming out of the box. And they stopped.

They put a stop on my mail at the company. They would not take my mail anymore because of Doc. And then so I told Doc, as said, listen, they're not taking mail for me, will you. You You know you're an asshole. You've screwed this up for me. He said,

don't worry. So then everything he sends to this day and Doc sends me a lot of parapherne you're in books and crap like that, and everything had he writes, no animal parts, no goat head, no blood on the outside of the package in large black you know inc on the side of the box. There. Yeah, I have a whole I have a whole wing here of like

Doc Mike crap I have. He's run for president since every election since twenty twelve, sixteen and now twenty uh he has run and I am his vice presidential Kennedy. But he actually has presidential election style photos taken like campaign posters. He makes these campaign posters and he always sends me some every year. It's not now I know that you've had You've had a listener send you a cooler with with frozen meat before. Yes, so our guy

in Boston, that's the greatest. That he hooks me up with the Finway Monster Dog, the greatest hot dog of all time, only available in the local Boston area. And uh, this guy fil Man, he's the hot dog benefactor. He always hooks me up. The problem with that is a few times, you know, he's gone out and got the hot dogs and then by the time they got down

to me, they were lukewarm, and it's not well. I I bring that up because I'm curious if Doc Mike has ever gone that route of disguising mail and maybe having packaged or cooled off urine in a bottle. No, No, that's very he would never say that because the urine is very valuable the doc. It's it's it's gold, it's liquid gold, and he would never never do that. So so yeah, I mean he's he's not centering a urine the mail, but he has sent me a lot of

urine themed items paraphernalia. Yeah, it was seven of books on on Yourin. We actually had one of the authors on that doc booked for this show we had and the guy cursed and it was a it was a hot mess that doc working hard to produce the radio show. So tremendous, tremendous, tremendous tumentus. But yeah, I do think that the people have sent stuff. I appreciate it, and I've got to go through everything to the inventory and all that, but it's, uh, it is much appreciate it

and I do eventually get it. I want you to know I do get it. There's a big lag time though, because you know the mail. Um, it's like a snail. We have a snail in there and it's kind of like it goes along and it does this thing. So I've got boomed to Benny. And this is another thing. I listen. I got several messages from people on the social media and emails from people, Hey I saw this, and uh it is true. So I give you the rest of the story. So there is a documentary series

on Vice TV called The Dark Side. Apparently they do this for a number of topics, The Dark Side. It's like their own franchise documentary franchise advice, and you know they claim in their in their propaganda that they explore the underbellies of the world's many, you know, prefer left in the shadows. And so the latest one that's out now is The Dark Side of Football and it's you know,

no holds barred approach to looking at the NFL. And one of the episodes of the Air and I think it was episode three was on all Right, and I am in that episode. I uh did a number of different I don't know how to frame me. You do these these documentary shows. They sit you in a chair and then they ask you questions for for a while. So I'm told I'm gonna be in some other episodes. If you haven't seen it, the Vice TV, uh, and it's on the internet. Some of it's on the internet.

I didn't see the Raider episode yet on the internet. I have not seen that. I've not seen the episode. And even if I could see the episode, I don't think I would watch the episode because it's Uh. I don't like listening to myself on the radio, and I definitely don't like looking at myself on TV. But it hadn't done really any real TV stuff, like any and like this kind of thing since uh, the INBC Sports Network back in the day. But we uh to tell you how that works. These things work. We we taped

for like several hours. This goes back to December, and they'll probably only use like a total of thirty seconds if I'm lucky, But it was like three hours. We had a lunch break, and I mean it was the whole the whole deal, and the producers and the directors.

They reached out to me, uh back in like November of last year, and one of the guys worked on the Best Damn Sports Show period, one of the he was one of the producer guys and I and and he was like he knew, I knew some people have worked on that show, so we we kind of knew the same people and that kind of stuff. Chris Rose, Tom Looney, No, I weren't the guy was on. He was behind the scene, but yeah, I Rose and Looney and those guys who worked at Fox Sports Radio back

in the day. And so we filmed that like the first week in December, and it was taped at the lobby of the Culver Hotel in Culver You've ever been to the Culver Hotel in Culver City? Is it the one that's on the corner And it's really, really nice when you walk in, it's a it's a weird shape. It it looks like a building from New York. It's an old Hollywood landmark. In fact, it is a historical landmark. It's a National Historical landmark. This hotel. It's been around

since the early days of Hollywood. It's pretty cool. I was walking around there and it's like a it's not really a triangle, but it's kind of you know, it's like a weird shape of the building. And they built like a movie theater around it. But the movie studios right across the way. It's still still there from the old days. But that is that hotel is most famous because back in the nineteen thirties, when they were filming The Wizard of Oz, the Munchkins stayed at that hotel.

It was just down the street from the MGM studios, and so they put up all these little people at the Culvert Hotel in the late nineteen thirties. And the legend is that they were so cheap at the movie studio that they literally would put three little people in a bed because they were so tiny, and that way they could. Because it's not a big hotel, there's only like it's like less than fifty rooms in the hotel.

It's a small building. And so to monetize space, they would lay three I don't know what used to call them midgets. I don't know what do you call him now, I don't know what the political people, little people a politicularly, all right. So they lay him on the bed, three of them, and they could they could get him, and they were a hundred and twenty four I wrote it down.

A hundred and twenty four little actors were filmed. And not only is it hilarious to think that while they were filming The Wizard about's one of the great movies you know, think about all time. I quoted many people quoted. It's one of those you've got to see. It's like a write of passage at some point, even though it's a million years ago, from the nineteen thirties. Uh. But so they lay the little people down on the bed

and all that stuff. Hundred and twenty four actors, and it was apparently like Sodom and Gomorrah, like they had, you know, a little men and wait a minute and all that, and they were getting drunk and having wild parties. They had filmed during the day and then at night

at the Culvert Hotel, they would just go insane. And the legend also is that the studio would they use underground tunnels to the shuttle the the actors, the munchkins underneath in the bowels of the hotel across the street to the MGM studios, so they would be undetected, so people wouldn't know what was going on about that. Yeah, so it's an interesting hotel. That's what you did the documentary and like it goes. I mean the big names in the old days of Holly Clark, Gable, uh, you know,

Greta Garbo, people like that. Um, Charlie Chaplin supposedly owned that hotel. And the legend is, although I don't think it's true, as he sold the hotel, he he lost the poker game and he is something with the pot game where they sold the hotel that John Wayne for one dollar or something like that. And so there's a bunch of stories about it. But it's a it's a pretty cool old Hollywood place. And so anyway, I you're interested in seeing the dark side, and I did see

the first episode, which I was not in. It's well done. It's a good you like a good sports documentary The Dark Side of Football, and we'll see they talked about the Raiders on the in that episode. I know there's some I don't want to give it away, but there's some on you know, violent hits and the concussions and that kind of stuff, and the Eagles, the Cowboys, uh, you know some of the other stuff that we talked about.

I have the book. I have not read it yet though, but The Dark Side it was I'm curious, what did they so when this is broken down in each episode sixty minutes in length or thirty minutes, So they're doing it like a short version with with an entire series or is it? No, the episode I saw was like an hour, like an hour deal I guess about with

commercials or whatever, it's a little less. But uh yeah, that seems like the full the full manti there they're not cutting corners and maybe they were working on this for like a year and a half. Actually well no, not a year. But it was like during COVID the guys were traveling around and interviewing people, so you have to sign all these COVID disclosures and whatnot. I'll be curious why, I mean, why won't you watch it though, because editors, it's a making break with editors don't make

it look good. They'll make you look bad. Yeah. No's I mean that's the whole thing with the documentary. But I don't know, I don't see it because then I'll like be like I look fat or I look ugly, or you know I didn't wear that, or you know, why did I say that? I should have said this. You know, I don't want to do that. So I mean, I might check out a screenshot. I might, I'll take like a photo. Well, you're gonna have the same thing for you. I mean, I know Rob Parker did it

or whatever. You know he does, and he's on TV all the time. I sends that stuff to us all the time. You're gonna have a handful of listeners are doing this anyway for you. They're gonna face is too shiny right here. Well. The funny thing about that is when I finished the shoot back in December, They're like, well, this should come out around the super Bowl. Yeah, so I'm like, okay, the Super Bowls in February early February.

They wanted to do it like, you know, either promoted the beginning and then drop it right after the Super Bowl. I was like, and it never happened. So I was like, well, maybe it got scrapped or something like that, maybe because I didn't hear from him. And I was like, well, maybe they never did the show. And then, um, here we are in June, and you know, February, not March, not April, not May, but we're in June, so five essentially five months later, and uh, and there it is.

But I had actually forgotten about I figured they just scrapped in and that was it. But people pointing out they did not scrap So there you go. Can I share? Can I share a football? Um? Can I share a football story with you? Then? Um, I was. I was fortunate and lucky. I've I've been on a little bit of a kick thanks to what we've done in the markets, whether it's crypto or or obviously the New York Stock

Exchange been up quite a while. At six six thirty in the morning, seven thirty in the morning, and um, I got a call a few days ago from this this digital company overseas that's based in Hamburg, Germany, and they contacted me because they needed, or they do need a handful of announcers to commentate on the new European Football League. So yesterday, No, not yesterday, the day before I did a test I did a test game for them and featured the Hamburg Sea Devils, and uh, yeah,

it was pretty interesting. It was a inter squad American style football. Yeah, American football they have so they have NFL rules except for overtime over time, they'll go to college. But outside of that, Yeah, it's a lot of the guys that were playing at the Division one level, whether it's FBS the FCS, and a lot of these dudes that play that in German leagues before or still play

in German leagues. So yeah, it's pretty interesting. I was like, fine, you know, like you go through the you go through the roster and you're looking for the Johnson's, the Smiths, and then all of a sudden you get those German last names and you're like, wait a minute, this is gonna be a little challenging. Yeah, and are you gonna

travel to Germany and no, no, So they're doing everything online. Um. The kicker on this, which is kind of unique, is that the European Football League is generating sixty players on each roster. You can only have ten foreign players and you can only have four Americans. So they want to keep it where it's centrics to centric to the state or the state the country that you're in. So right now it's comprised of Germany, Poland and Spain, and you can only have those players in that country or from

that country playing those teams that want that. That's what most like I know in basketball. I've talked to guys that have played overseas and they have limits on how many Americans can play in like basketball, internationally, a lot of the countries have limits on that. You can only have one or two I forget the number is. But 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 app. Yeah. Can you imagine they tried that in America? Well, you can only have one foreign player on your team, and then after that you're not a lot. Oh my god, the locarate would go nuts. They would lose their mind to crap. Can you imagine? Yeah, well you have a quota and

I'm sorry, reached our quota and that's it. Could you imagine if they did that for Major League Baseball? Oh yeah, as far as like the Dominican Republic, American countries, ship Toronto Blue Jays would be in a whole lot of time. It would be in the world of hurt. Yeah, but it isn't you look at the US versus the world. I mean that a lot of the other places. That's I think I heard in the Mexican League, Mexican League baseball, they have a limit on how many US players you

can have. I don't know that. Somebody told me that a couple of years ago. I don't know if that's true. So do you know that then for like the Japanese or Korean leagues? Is that the case? I believe that to be the case. Also, Yeah, I think we can double check it. But I know in basketball, I've I've worked with some guys that played basketball in different countries and they were limits on how many Americans I could

play in that country. And I think in in Japanese baseball, yeah, that you can only have a couple of per team. That you've got to have mostly players from the Homeland. That's But as far as the broadcasting thing, like see now because of the COVID, this is one of the things like if you're an up start league, you're not going to actually have the broadcasters travel to wherever you are,

right if you can save money now you can. People have been hypnotized and mesmerized and they don't really know where the broadcasters are, and so you could call games from your living room and you don't have to travel to Germany and need a sausage. You know, Germany Schnitzelman,

the German press man. Yes. And the one lucture that we had with this game to which I loved they probably didn't was that they had two cameras but hot mics, and so that the mics were down there field level and you could just hear English speaking head coaches, a couple of them, more American dropping f bombs left and right, blown tackles, missed the simits, staying out of their lanes on kickoff and kickoff return. So it was awesome. Sometimes it would lay out just so I can hear the

hot mics. It's really good. So and you're doing this in English, you don't speak Germans, you're doing this in English, and this is being broadcast where is this supposed to be broadcast? When you start doing it, it'll be broadcasted on a company's platform called Spock TV s p A l K TV. Yeah, so they do. They do a bunch of different sports. Have been trying to work with them for for a while and they do a lot of basketball, baseball. Um, I think they do polo, tennis, boxing,

They do a handful of things. But where they are They an international company or they so they're they're based in Germany and but they've had people working in Germany, Australia, I think New Zealand and different parts of the UK. So do they pay well, Uh, I don't know. I even gotten into that. I gotta clear the first turtle man thing. I just want to make sure you get your money. I don't want to, you know, be upset about that. So they should that should you should say hey,

how much am I getting? And I'm not gonna do it this is unless I get X amount of dollars or whatever. Well, I it's it's interesting because of the sense that their head coaches and the commission have openly said that their idea for this league is not to make it a standalone. They want to make it as a transition link to the National Football League. I know that that's a huge leap, especially because you gotta think

big man big, you know. They want to make this like the NFL Europe, right, yeah, yeah, well I remember the NFL Europe. It seemed like a good idea. But I remember people just used to complain that I didn't know who any of the right which is. But it's so dumbfounding to me because I love watching the MAC. I don't know how many people do, but I'll watch

that ship on Tuesdays and Wednesday nights. And outside of Jordan Patterson that played running back for Buffalo and scored seven touchdowns in the game last season, most people don't know who these cats are. But it's football. Well. I love the guys. And when you go to Vegas or anywhere now they have sports books, you go in there and there's always that one guy that's like the MAC guy. You know, you know, he bets on the Mac. That's

the thing. Then there's the everyone's chasing Hawaii, but there's that person that studies Hawaii. They're kind of you know, that's their thing, you know, the Hawaii Warriors, the Rainbow Warriors and all that. Yeah, plus to the last game

of the night. So if you're chasing an action from a blown pack twelve game at ten o'clock, Yeah, I would argue that the sports books make more money from Hawaii than many of the schools in the Power five conferences because that that's the drain everything goes through at the end. You're trying to get your money back. Yeah, And I feel like it's amplified now because the continuance and I guess innovation of live betting too, right, Like

you're not you're not waiting for a second half spread anymore. Now, you're waiting for the television time outs to come in. Yeah. Boy, that's a dangerous one, the live betting man, because you can bet on everything and it's I mean, jeez, that is a slippery slope, man. That's a death by a thousand paper cuts is what that is? Or a thousand you know, as was it R. J. Bell called pizza money bets. But you make enough pizza money bets and you got nothing. Yeah, you you lose enough pizza money

bets and you will feel that, Yeah, that is not good. Now, I don't know do you, because I know you go to bed usually around eight or nine o'clock after your show, right, yes, yes, I usually go to bed between right around eight to nine, depending on the day. On Thursday, CNR not CNN. Fox Business on Thursday had the CEO and president of Fubo TV on Yeah, and he talked about how it was being treated as a meme stock for for some odd reason. But they have and obviously for those that don't know,

they could check it out. But I think you talk about a loaded gun with live betting. Fobo TV is gonna have where if you're watching let's say, like the Colts in the Charge Years, they're gonna have a menu that's up there and available for you to live bet or place bets on other games at the flick of a switch on your television channel or just on a on a touch screen. So yeah, I don't know, man.

I think there's that novelty of going to Vegas, Like we could hop in a car and go four hours to Vegas in a car or a forty five minute of flight, But fuck dealing bets from your house. Yeah, you gotta be careful. I mean to me, the way this would work, you know, and that's you know, there's a lot of people obviously get swept up in this and lose everything. But you gotta be careful. But you can say that about any any vice, like people drink too much? Does that mean we should ban alcohol? They

tried that prohibition. It didn't work. People people will do to anything to excess, but everything in moderation. But to me, the whole the way it would work in the perfect world. You know, let's say, uh, on a Friday night, it worked all week, there's a game or a sun day afternoon, and you want to put a couple of bucks down, you know, and then but you go crazy. I don't think that's But when you go to Vegas, you have a dollar amount set aside that you're you're seeing yourself.

I can lose this much, right, Yeah, that's my donation, that's my tax, and I paid to the casino. That's the real that's the real resort fee. But they charge you a bullshit resort for resort fee. What do I think people are going there and not gambling? Why the funk would you go to Vegas and not gable? Part of the resort fee for thirty five dollars is the gym and the telephone and the wifire internet access in

your room, Like the funk is using that exactly. Well, the WiFi I get, but it doesn't cost thirty five dollars per person for the WiFi, and nobody uses the hotel gyms. It's a completely empty Yeah, the waste of time use your phone at the at the casino tables anyway. So yeah, wife bull ship, they get away with it. Yeah, that resort for you. It's like, we'll just put that in the price of the room because you're afraid to do it, so you tack it on at the end

and you go there. You're like, well, I'm getting a great deal at hotel and you know, forty bucks a night with a seventy dollar resort fee, you know whatever it is. It's like so stupid, and don't forget you need to pay for parking, right Yeah, well yeah, well that's why I got all those credit cards. I guess. I heard they got rid of that though with the COVID they were so desperate to get people to come back.

I wonder if they brought the parking the charge parking back, but I had heard they got rid of that because I'd bet a Vegas and in a while since twenty nineteen. But the last time I was in Vegas you had to pay parking. But I heard they got rid of that because they were trying to encourage people to go back to the casino. It's funny you bring that up. I just noticed on Delta's website a few days ago

that they did away with cancelation charges. So if you booked a flight out of l A to go to New York, let's say on Sunday, and you can't go anymore, you can cancel, not cancel, but you get a flight credit now into your account. You got a voucher before they would charge you I think at least seventy five dollars to cancel or change it. And then they would they would charge you the difference on an upcoming flight. And why did they Because they could. That's why they could.

And all the other you know, the nuisance fees, like the baggage fees and all that stuff. It's but I did did learn a lesson when I traveled some in twenty nineteen, actually before that, Like you know, you don't pay for a bag to be checked in. What you do is you try to put it in the overhead they'll be out of space, and then they'll check it in for you for free. Yeah, so that's the move.

You don't actually pay for it in advance because they'll just do it, and that way you don't have to pay for now you will when you travel, especially when you went to Boston, did you either bring a jacket or a sweater? Uh? Yeah, I had to bring a couple of jackets. I mean, it wasn't freezing, but it was, you know, still April and ball spin. It's not particularly warm. So that's what I did, or that's why I do. I'll bring a huge jacket, usually like a winter coat,

and I'll bring it with my bag. If my bag is too big, I'll try to put it up on the upper bend compartment, but if I can't, I'll put it underneath my seat, but put my jacket over it. And since it's black, you can't really see the dimensions of the bag. Yeah, I don't when you walk on the plane, though, don't they normally I can't see what's going on. They assumed I'm gonna put it in the overhead bit. Okay, Yeah, so you're saying the flight attendants

aren't very punctual with what there like, like checking everything. Yeah, they're not a student, especially since the intent or I moved my legs around a little bit doesn't look like I'm crammed. I'll spread spread out a little bit. And my big, my big fat days back in the day when I would fly in the seatbelt didn't particularly fit well. I was. There were a few flights I was able to pretend like I had the seatbelt on and I didn't.

That's what you do, well, I would. I would put my arms on my lap right where the middle of the seatbelt was, and I hold my hand over it to make it seem like it was together. But it was what it wasn't and uh And very rarely did I have any issue with him saying, what can I see the full you know, the clicking of the seabelt. They assumed that it was connected and it wasn't always the case. It's better than them tugging on it, right, Oh yeah, that's good. All right. We have a few

scientifical stories here, and this one's crazy. So a new study out found that nearly half of Americans say they are convinced dinosaurs still exist in some remote corner of the world. How crazy is that? Uh? And uh, but wait there's more. Four in ten people survey think that the prehistoric creatures existed between two thousand and ten thousand years ago, rather than between sixties six and two thirty

million years ago, which is what science says. And what in five even think the dinosaur population only went extinct a hundred years That like, in nineteen twenty one, there were dinosaurs sours roaming around while Babe Ruth was playing for the Yankees. Just after World War One, we have dinosaurs roam in the world. Imagine they would They would weaponize the dinosaurs, put like bazookas on him and ship

like that. Fifty percent also believed all dinosaurs only lived in Africa and North America, unaware that these are you know, these creatures were everywhere, And despite their being a thousand different species of dinosaur, the typical adult can name only how many dinosaurs four that's right for, with the most popular dinosaur being the t rex. Yeah, Tyronosaurus rex most recognizable. That's the the o G of the dinosaur, and that's

the king. That's great. Though nearly half of Americans say they're convinced the dinosaurs still exists somewhere here's the correct Jurassic Park. That's the Jurassic Park thing, right, So why don't we think that was a documentary or something. Dr Grant and obviously the the other ones in amusement park. I we don't explore the the ocean enough do We were really fascinated with without our space, which is understandable. But what about the deep sea, the deep blue sea.

Oh yeah, there's probably all kinds of crap living down at the bottom of the ocean that we have no idea. There could be a whole different That's one of the theories on the UFOs, that they're actually creatures that live in the ocean that we don't know about. There's some kind of alien alien it'll be on the planet, but deep in the bowels and the monsters out there. Like they say that dinosaurs are gone, but I look at a blue whale, I think that's that's a that's a dinosaur,
