Speaker 1

Boom. If you got four 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 the clearing House of Hot takes break free for something special. The Fifth Hour with Ben Maller starts right now that he does. You listen this. It's that time of the year. You're looking for stuff to do on the weekends and you have

really reached the bottom of the barrel. The Fifth Hour, which is a spinoff you should know by now of the Overnight Show Here with myself, Ben and David Gascon affectionately known on the Internet as Gagon, and we do this show because we are asked to do the show. Four hours not enough, as we are literally in the air everywhere the digital air waves of podcasting, the hard podcast Network as you have found us, were available wherever you download your podcast, and I guess on here we

are back again. Now there is no XFL podcast. This week we were debating whether or not to do an XFL podcast, even though I went four and no documented against the spread last week, we have decided to not do it because this guy from Ottawa calls up and we just do it on the radio show. So this it's kind of just repeating the same stuff. So why why bother? We can do it in five minutes instead of an hour podcast. I don't hear you. Hello the fuck?

What the hell was that? That is what you call karma, Ben mallor all of the gloating, the love the rose pedals that you threw it. Keep trying, Ryan, Yeah, bastard muted to my fucking microphone. I told him to make me sound better, and he made me sound better. He made me sound good. He followed instructions. That is unreal. He knows what the people want. He knows what the people want. I'm like three times his size. I will cut him the next time I see come across. The

very violent is very very violent there you. I'm channeling my my inner daytime personelity here at Fox Sports Radio as we speak. Anyways, four now, that's pretty damn good. It's better than what you did to close out there. Yeah, we're doing Wait are we doing a pickup? Is that what we're doing? Of course we are. Okay, go ahead, stupid four. No, an XFL set means what you need two weeks just to kind of get an idea of the lay of the land. Uh for betting lines and

for trends. No, I just completely. What I did is I threw spaghetti against the wall and see, you know, if any strand of spaghetti stuck, that would be the team that I would pick. Well, I was no different than like the bear in the zoo that walks over to the red colored box instead of the blue colored box to pick the game. That was that kind of thing. So hopefully you threw at spaghetti against a room on a wall that had tile on the bottom, because I

know your kitchen is not existent. And that's called a segue, and radio we call that a segment podcasting what do we call on podcasting? I think we could call it a yeah, crisis. So the menu, I don't I don't know if we even need to do the man you do we need to do the menu. We don't need to. People don't care. No, people don't really care about that.

But we have home cooking because yeah, the Mallard kitchen catastrophe has continued here and this is the big weekend and depending on when you download of this and you're listening to the podcast. Chances are as you are listening to this, there is a team of contractors in the Mallard mansion finally putting the kitchen sink back in and the the kitchen counters and all that stuff. It's been almost two months and hopefully everything will be done in

the next like week. The kitchen counter is supposed to come in this weekend, and then assuming they don't f that up, and then there's a backsplash. This stuff is so expensive. It's ridiculous how expensive all this stuff is. And we're not even buying the most expensive stuff, and it's just outrageously expensive. But I gotta tell you, guest, you know, I have not been able to have my diet work the way I want because even though I'm only eating once every other day during the week, I'm

eating out. I've eaten out for the last two months. I despise eating out. Now I've eaten out everywhere I want to eat. I don't like it. I want to go an entire year. I told my wife, I said, to pay off the kitchen. We are not going to eat out for one solid year. It's not gonna happen. Every dollar that we would have spent on food is gonna go to pan off the kitchen. So uh, And I'm happy because I'm eating everywhere I want to eat. I've had every out the meal I want. I'm done.

I'm ready to just cook everything at home. That's it, pizza and whatever else I can make. That. Yeah, that's a bad sign for for the misses because you're not a good cook. No, I'm a great cook, not just I'm a wonderful cook. Philly cheese steak, I can make that, wonderful chicken fingers. I'm an expert at that made you beat your pizza. You bat your tongue and your lip because of burnt pizza. Because the pizza was so fucking good that I wanted to eat it. I don't want

to wait. Is that how you're trying to spend this thing? No, listen, if I make up, you know what I'm gonna do. Now that I have the Graham going, I am gonna be tweeting out and when the new kitchen gets done, Mallard cooking one on one, how about that? Forget cooking with Roberto. It's Mallard cooking. But you have a grill in the backyard. So why can't you just grill your food at home anyway? Because I have nowhere to wash

the dishes. You see how that works? Stupid? No, you have to wash the stuff that you must to cook by paper plates, buy paper pots. Also, no, you could put everything on the grill. You can. Didn't foil you? You got tup of Wait. I can teach you how to cook a little bit, Ben Mallory, you or you don't even know how to cook? What are you talking about? Fantastic cook that's a lot. I can cook any thing

that you want. Given night, I could make you something fantastic that your mind will be blown, literally are There's nothing wrong. I'm excited for you though. This has been a long endeavor for you, for the misses, the entire mallor household. And uh yeah, I mean it's nice because you got a little bit of a reprieve in December after you took that all expenses paid trip to Seattle. Uh what wasn't all expenses paid? I think that's a misnomer. It was not um. It was compensated. It was a

group effort. But I there was still out of pocket money that was paid, not much, but there was some I mean, that's the truth. There was some out of pocket money that that that was for uber or lift from the airport. I chartered flight to a private airport tonight. I did not know. First of all, I didn't use an UBER from the airport. I took the subway in Seattle or the whatever they call it, the train from the airport because I was there was a son no, I was, I was gonna call an uber. I got

out to the c Tach airport. There I got out and there was an UBER area and I was gonna. I was like, all right, I'll go get an uber. And then they had a sign because Seattle is a bunch of hippies, and they were like, hey, save the environment, take public transportation, walk this way. So I started walking and I just kept walking to the train and then I took the train and I was like, you know, three bucks boom done back in the area I needed to be in. So what do we got? What we

got on tap? Because I got some good stuff for you as well. Uh well, we've got poop Tastic, the Namibie of fs are. We've got that charitable grab bag, that's the email bag, which is pretty good. And also study this and you've got some other the perfect wingman, as I would call it, perfect wingman. Yes, yeah, alright, let's start with this pooptastic story because this is wonderful. We go now to a place where our friend, I think Rob Parker was here, was he was, he was here,

I bet a month ago. I'm gonna announce our program. We're talking about Antarctica. Yes, Antarctica he went. So Rob just full disclosure. He has visited all seven continents now. I believe he taught to us about doing Dubai St. Petersburg and also Moscow in I think July or August. Yeah. I don't think I would be allowed in Dubai, but some of those other places maybe you know what could happen. Yeah, So how about this. A gentleman by the name of

Colonel O'Brady, Um, he had a trip. He actually spent about half a month in Antarctica, and the weather at this time when he went was not pleasant at all. So O'Brady actually wrote down a couple of different things. It wasn't feeling well about himself. Um. And during the mission that he had he had abruptly literally take a ship as he was making a trek across Antarctica on his skis. Did he find a bathroom at a gas station to take the dump? He had nowhere to roam.

I guess he had everywhere to roam, but nowhere to stop and actually, uh dispel himself rather quickly and efficiently. So there's no there's no porta potties. He is out on the trail, no paper, towels, no leaves, obviously no toilet paper. What would you do in a situation like this? Anyway, Well, so the you know, this guy's at Daredevil, right, this guy's at Daredevil, and and this is very uncomfortable situation. Now,

I I have to be honest, you're full disclosure. When I was younger and I was a kid, I occasionally would have this happen. You just have to power through.

You just have to power through. But the problem is you get like, I don't know, as a kid and I had this happen, I still remember, you get like a rash because you know I would have I would have an accident in school, like an elementary school, and I was like in kindergarten or first grade or whatever, and uh, it's it's very aggravating and annoying and bob or some because you know, you don't want to tell anybody because you're embarrassed, and you have to wait till

you get home. But you don't want to sit anywhere because then it shows through your pants and all that. It's a big nightmare. Yes, so, but I guess if you're by yourself an antarchico, you have to worry about vanity because no one's there. You're the only person walking across the continent. But this kind of goes back to what you told me a couple couple of years ago about whatever you do, wherever you go, you must journal everything, so you say, true to your word, something like this

is still a great story. So how this actually started, Ben was obviously, when your situation like this, you want to maximize your energy and limit what you're taking or pulling with you. Um, he had a few protein bars that were packed about two thousand calories worth of protein bars, and so what he did was he binged one morning at three o'clock in the morning, he was binge eating about two thousand calories and protein bars. And and you know, any good man, how many that couldn't that could only

be a pull The protein bars. Those things are packed with calories, aren't they exactly? But you gotta keep in mind the fiber too that comes with it protein fiber, and your buddy can't digest all of that in just one single session. So uh so, obviously he packed this in literally at two thousand calories one morning. At three m next day, he woke up feeling sick um, but he obviously had to make the trip anyway. His stomach didn't feel great at all, and sooner or later, before

you know it, pop goes the weasel. Well, he had to like playing. You know, how long does it was he gonna take? He was gonna take a few weeks, right, so you had you had to know you were gonna take some ships along the road. You know. Did he not bring toilet paper? No? But this, apparently this I applaud his efforts because apparently this went on for about six hours in nearly negative twenty five degree fahrenheit. Well,

at least it wasn't a hot day. You'd rather poop your pants on a cold day because it doesn't smell as much and it doesn't get running. Yeah, but what if it sticks? You don't want it to stick to you, right, wouldn't you just rather have it be hot and moist and just flood out. Well, I know you like it hot and moist. I know that, guests. When it comes to poop, I'm not talking about all right, you listen. I mean it's embarrassing you ever pooped your fans gas.

I think we rehashed this story. But my senior year in high school, I was I was playing football and our pregame ritual was always to go to an Italian restaurant before we left the premises, and we had usually pizza, pasta, salads, whatever we wanted to nature. The guys would load up on pasta and salad, no pizza. Um. I was one of the up backs as on the kick return team and the kickoff was short. I actually returned the kickoff

and I had daylight. I probably should have taken this thing into the end zone, but I got tackled sideways by this little midget who I saw at the very last second politically correctest cares. Anyways, ben, I landed on the football on my stomach and uh yeah. The result was Italian food that immediately hit the the exit button. So lucky for me. Our uniforms were Navy blue and dark. So I knew right away this is the opening kickoff.

I was like, oh shit, I ship. So we get in the huddle and the first play is to me, and so the quarterback is obviously calling the play and I'm gonna tight end. Everyone's like, what the funk is that? I was like, I have no idea. I think that guy over there ship his bands. I caught the first pass for like thirty yards, and I pretended after that that I was tired and I needed a breather. I raised my ass straight to the locker room, relieve myself, changed my gear, and went right back in the field.

As girls, you had an extra pair of pants that you could change into. It. It's very boogie to have that. You must have been to a nice high school. That reminds me of a story Lincoln Kennedy told me one time when I was doing a show with him and UH on the weekend, and he was sign about when he was playing for the Raiders and they were playing the Bengals, and UH, some guy had a an accident and nobody, nobody wanted. Nobody wanted to tackle him because he they had the ships, and so it could be

a competitive advantage. I guess it could be a competitive advantage. But but see, here's the thing that the gentleman that made the trek in Antarctica ben he only brought one pair of underwear. Well that's just stupid, stupid fifty four day move and he had one pair of underwear, And so is he weed man? Hippie won one pair of underwear for an entire you know, two months and they come on, but what is it like, do you wear long John's as well or under armours? It just straight

shony is in. Well, I'm assuming he had seven layers. He was an antarcticus. All right, moving I'm done with this. Moving on, How I am the Nambbie of fs R. I am the Nambie awesome Wa of Fox Sports Red. I pulled a Namdi awesome Wa out of the deck. Didn't you remember who Namdi awesome Wa was. Yeah, he played for the Raiders and the Eagles. Correct, Yeah, no, I told. I told the Namdi awesome Wa story a couple of days ago on the year, but I didn't realize I was about to become Namti awesome Wa. So

he was a defensive back. I was an All Pro A couple of times with the Raiders, and he signed a big contract with the Eagles. He hated his teammates on the Eagles. What's my evidence? He hated them so much he would sit in his car and have a sandwich at lunch at during your team training camp rather than socializing with his teammates at the Novacare Complex in Philadelphia. Sounds like you and your staff. So so anyway, earlier

this week, wreck At Ralph, my nemesis. Ralph Irvine was relentlessly giving me talking points from Major League Baseball about how the Astros scandals no big deal, it's it's nothing. Give me all the crap that Rob Manford wants the dumb people to repeat and hopes that the idiots the low information fan. By well, Ralph's the definition of low information fan. So he bought it. And so he was

just I'm trying to prep for the show. I'm in my little room there, I like to, you know, spend some about ten fifteen minutes before the show, just kind of locking in, and this guy's harassing me, peppering me with questions about the ass really more statements than questions. So the next night I saw that Ralph was on the schedule, and I pulled the nomdi asom wonder what does that mean. I sat in my car and waited until he left the building, and then I entered the

building and check this out. So Ralph saw me sitting in the car and he approached. Now I had the windows up in the malamobile and Ralph Irvan goes over wreck it. Ralph the drunk rhino and is trying to engage me in conversation. But I pretended to be in a very serious phone conversation and did not acknowledge Ralph. And fortunately he gave up the fight and then got in his car and left. And then after that I walked right in. I struttered in like a peacock at

eleven o'clock. Uh no, I was, I got there before that. I don't know what you're talking about. I get there much earlier that. All right, So that was my Nombiti story. Now the charitable thing as we got to keep the train moving down the tracks. So, uh, I gotta tell I want to preface this by saying I am debating whether or not I have been debating whether or not to talk about this, but I decided that the podcast is the perfect place my belief is that true charity

should be done. Anonymous said that a lot, so I'm about to break my cardinal rule. I'm becoming J. J. Watt. But we entered, now listen to me. We entered a Super Bowl prop contest I talked about on the show, and I never paid it off. One of the props that was sent in by a listener was a winner. We we and we made the cut. We were in the ten props that actually became real bets you could wager on at bet online, the offshore sports book bet Online, And so they accepted one of our props and it

was very exciting. It was a prop whether or not they would mention Groundhog Day on the Super Bowl broadcast because the game was on Groundhog Day. I believe it was Manic Mike that centered and maybe I'm wrong, there was I think several people might have sent the same one in, but or version of it. So, but anyway, that was the one that was picked. And as a result, the deal was if they pick one of your props, they will donate money to charity, but you have to

pick the charity. So I did my due diligence and I picked the Cancer Research Institute, which is out of New York there. Why did I do that because the highest they have the highest score I could find of

money that actually goes to cancer research. It's one of my pet peeves here, like that that scoundrel, Uh the who's the biker Lance Armstrong, the bike rider who who had this charity and it was for cancer awareness which allowed him to fly around on private jets and all that crap, and uh it was you know he and he could do that as well. I'm flying around a way raise awareness about cancer, Like who the funk doesn't

know about cancer? So whatever? Strong? Yeah, oh man, I still despised that guy to this day and we'll for forever. But but anyway, so I found this cancer research Institute and they the money goes to research, and it will. That's where you find a cure and remedies and potions for cancer and all the different forms of cancer that are out there. So I am gonna follow up here and tell you there was a donation for two hundred and fifty dollars that went there in the name of

our show for cancer research, not cancer awareness. So I am happy about that, but uh, not to brag about it because I had very little to do with it, and uh, I've broken my cardinal rules, so I feel bad about that. So is your name attached to it? Or is your wife's? Uh? Yeah, it's my name is on there because it's the show, the show's name in the honor of the show. Okay, I got you. Did you attach my name to it? Well? You no, No, it's not for the podcast. It had nothing to do

with the podcasting was about the podcast. I still wouldn't have attached your name, but no, not really. Yeah, you're not cut out for overnights. You can't handle the hour. Is your a bit of a pussy willow? You're more of a daytime I M 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. I made a charitable contribution once

here we go. I want to ask you if this is a drop a deuce in the toilet at the beach? Did well? Let me ask you this. Um krmen, Electra has a Karma Foundation. It's basically nonprofit organization and uh Karma Foundation holds different events throughout the United States and most of them are at the play By Mansion, but they do a couple of cruises. They do something in Miami every year. Uh. Back in the day, I had a long term relationship with with a female of mine

that was probably one that I should have bet the neon. Anyways, after we broke up, a buddy of mine invited me and he's like, hey, I got an invite to go to the play By Mansion. You want to go? And I'm like, what's the kicker, because with this guy, there's always a kicker. He's like, it's a thousand dollars And I said, I'm not gonna drop a grant to go to the play By Mansion. He's like, that's the best part.

It's a tax right off. And I'm like, how do you figured And he's like, because the proceeds go to the Karma Foundation, which is a foundation based on on a couple of different things. So, uh, it's a charity. It's a charitable donation. You can donate to go see movies. Yeah. So I said, all right, you know what, if I'm gonna do this and you've got the invite, I'm gonna pay for you and Donna pay for me, So just

give me the thousand dollars in cash. So I paid two thousand dollars pocket of the thousand dollars he gave me, wrote off the two thousand dollars in my taxes for a charitable contribution, and I had a hell of a night at the Playboy mansion. No, he's probably a regular at the Playboy Mansion. Well, no, but I got some friends. Now, I had a couple of chances. I never went. I had a couple of chances to go there. But the scumbag move though to write it off. Uh, yeah, it's typical.

You know, you're an elitist. You're a west of the four oh five guy in l A. And anybody who knows the geography of l A. If you are west of the four oh five, you are a schmuck schmuck ola, and you live in that area so it fits in with your neighbors. That's how you operate there. It's not really true. The four oh five doesn't go north and south. You know, he does go The four or five does go north and side. What are you talking about? Goes from from Orange County where it starts up through l

A through the west side. There's a curve to it, Ben, So it's not it's a curve, but it's going north. Dummy. Well, I don't deny. I've been on the four or five bunchs not in a long time because I try to avoid that area because the people that live there. I'm south of the You are not south of the four southwest of the four or five, Dummy, I'm south southwest I am. I'm at the end of the one ten free which which actually intersects the four or five. Well, I'm where I live. I am a man of the people.

You are hanging out with the one per centers, and I am a man of the people, the working class, the blue collar workers where I live, like call you the valley boy. Al Right, before we got the NFL combine coming up sometime soon, and since you mentioned the show and the donations, is the Ben Mallows Show gonna do a NFL style combine because for all intents of purposes, you are the acting chief of that show, and you're also in the best shape amongst the four regular cast men.

Thank you, I appreciate it. So you want me to do like forty yard dash, sixty yard shuffle, the twenty yard shuffle you got free cone drill. We're gotta put some knee high socks on you, some short shorts and play some rocky music. Yeah, that's you know what. That's

rich rich eyes and stick aloup wag. But like you've made immense progress with your shape, you've a weight to the fact that you don't know how to cook and you get no sleep, so we need you gotta show this off a little bit, right, Well, I I have no sleep quite a bit because you know, I have things to do, guest gun, but no, I'm not doing that's a cheesy bit. That's a bad idea about you, guests. So let's expand your brand a little bit. Yeah, I'm good. We have grab bag lets. We had a bunch of

questions that this is actually the mail bag. Here we opened the mailbag. Most of these posted on our Facebook page, which is Ben math or Show. I'll let you in a little secret. If you want to ask us a question that can get on the air, you should follow the Ben Mallory Show page on Facebook and then either

usually it's only Thursday morning. I will send out a message saying hey, I need some questions help us out, sometimes on Wednesday, but usually Thursday, and just put your question the name in the city and we might use it on the podcast, for example, Brad in Indianapolis, he writes, and he says, why is the audio for the podcast commercials so much better than the actual podcast audio? All right, guesscan you, you're the producer, explained why the commercials sound

better than the actual show? Well, because those are actually produced in a separate studio by our imaging department, which we have no control over. So, as you have documented throughout your illustrious career at Fox Sports Radio, things inside the studios are a little bit different. So if you go into our studio and it says radio, but there's only an and an oh on the wall, uh, that

can translate to what we got on the microphones at times. Well, this is a big week though, in the history of Fox Sports Radio, and I have a bit of a historian when it comes to Fox Sports Radio. The anniversary of your termination. Uh no, that was actually thanks for reminding me. That was January twenty. If that was twenty something days ago or whatever, it was bad job by you.

We gotta talk about that again. But no, they not only did they fix the sign in the studio, so it actually says radio not audio or whatever it had said, whatever version it had said. They also fixed line one, line one. We had a big celebration on the AAR. We were going yeah, line one, line one, line one. They fixed line one. For over a year, line one was broken. We had a birthday party. I bought a big cake from Costco and and now all of a sudden they must have gotten the memo they fixed line one.

I'm still waiting for my uh my Valentine's Day present from our our friend Tammy. Yeah, speaking of k Now you don't get a president. Why my president? It's actually right here in the studio. I'm using it's a she got me a tube guy. What the hy waving inflatable tube guy. That's bullshit, because, I mean, because it's kind

of cool. Tammy started listening to Fox Sports Radio because of me the weekend overnights, and then it bled into you, and so you know, you were like the you're like the fall guy, the the sidekick, the you know, I mean, you got your main squeak. First of all, Tammy has been listening before you were even around. She didn't even know your name. She's not even that old. Get over it. Yeah, no, I'm not saying she's old. She listened when she was like two years old. She was a little girl. She

started listening, all right. Gregg and green Bay rites since says, would you rather take a twenty pay cut with an extra week of vacation and work days, or you know, work the day shift or stay at your current wage and stay on the night shift? He says, by the way, he's in Green Bay. He works at a cheese factory and hates the packers. How about that? Uh No, I don't want to take a twenty percent pay cut. I don't need an extra week vacation. I don't even like

take vacation. I don't even like to take vacation. I don't enjoy that anyway. So I feel like I'm missing out when I take vacation and uh, the day shift, I'd have to deal I'd have to dress well and deal with management all the time. I don't want to deal with that right now. Now. If they if they paid me more, that's that's a different conversation. That is a different conversation. Aren't we trying to do that right now? What's that we're trying to do that right now? We're

trying to expand your brand. Well, no, I I am open to expanding um my, my brand. And one of the reasons we do the podcast I had to. I've always had a side gig in addition to radio, because I'm paranoid about radio, even I've been in it a long time, and so I've always had something else. I've always had two gigs at the same time. I had the website for a while with radio, I've had other radio side jobs where I, you know, get a little money. I did this stuff for w e I for a

couple of years. Recidely, I didn't get fired a change of affiliates. They love me a w e I. But I am on the Sports up now in Boston. We love the Sports Up two. It's a great station, so so and all that. But uh but no, I mean, I would work during the day if they paid more. But I'm not gonna for less. Are you kidding me? Please? Well, we'll see what happens here. We got we got high hopes and a lot of things in the in the oven cooking. Yeah, well we'll see. But you know, with

you cooking, you could burn everything. Who knows I could? But I could make a masterpiece, all right, Brian from north Bridge, Massachusetts, rights and he says, Ben, would you rather fire Gascon from your podcast because he sucks ass? Or have battery acid poured into your eyes? That's from Brian. How can you fire somebody that's not getting paid? I just love the fact that every week Brian send something, uh, just derogatory about you. This is the first time that

we've I've heard from Brian. No, no, we've used Brian's questions. I don't know if I've said north Bridge, Massachusetts or whatever. But yeah, yeah, clearly I have guests got off the podcast and have battery acid purting into my eyes. I think that's kind of obviously. Tom in Dayton, Ohio. Right, so, and he says, big Ben, when did you know this radio thing was going to work out as a career. Yeah, yeah,

that's absolutely correct. I'm still not convinced, you know, I'm I'm panicking it because this kitchen is gonna cost a fortune. I'm like, well, what if they whack me this, you know, this year at Fox? You know, I'm finally done. What am I gonna do? You know? But but I figure I'll get a job somewhere. But yeah, I'm not even convinced. I've been in radio, the radio business for over twenty years, and I am still not convinced that it's gonna work out.

I'm just waiting for the other shoot to drop. Keith in Northern California says, do you do you do anything superstitious before show? Uh? Well, what's that? What do I do? You burn trees? That's a lot not. The only superstitious thing I do is if I feel like the show actually was good, which is very rarely happens, whatever pen I'm using becomes my lucky pen, and I keep the pen and I it's it's it's like not changing your underwear for a few days because you're having a good streak,

streak or whatever. No pun intended, Yeah exactly, But yeah, I know that's that's about the only one about you. Guess you're superstitious in anyway? Uh? Yes, I am. Depending if I have a good show or if I call a good game, I'll typically go with the same diet routine. That means like if I'm fasting, or if I'm drinking like a pre energy drink or espress or whatever, it is, same thing, And depending on the attire, I'll try to

wear something that's comparable to that. Speaking of which, speaking of at tire, when don't we going to a Santa Anita? What are we doing this? Well, you know, listen, I can go to Santa Anita whenever I want. I need some tacos is what I need. We could do tacos tacos. It's kind of a bitch move for you to do that on Instagram, to post on all those pictures with you. I didn't go to hitos tacos. I went to a

different taco place, but still like you. You had a debt that you that's a food review, that was great contente it. You just posted a picture of it. Listen on Instagram. That's what it's all about. No I did. I said, you didn't read the little thing? I said seven out of ten. I said, seven out of ten read things. I got to look at pictures. Yeah, I know. All you do is look at the photos. You're like, yeah,

your language is the emoji language, merely. I know. In St. Paul, Minnesota says would you rather wear an astro's hat in jersey and a photo op or eat dinner at helmet Man's home that he prepared. That's a that's a tough one. But you know what, there's a lot of protein and roaches and cockroaches, So I would go with helmet Man. Hella Man is a great He's got a great personality. I've met him several times. He's very outgoing, and I

like Helmet Man. I just you know the fact that he's he's a having issues with his his roaches a little much. But but yeah, I would't want to wear astro memorabile. You're kidding me? What's what if? It's throwback throwbacks on are bad before they were cheaters. Yeah, like the Nolan Ryan days the eighties where they had the different shades of orange. Ray in Oswego, Kansas, Ray, who's

famous on the show. He's the duke guy. He proposed to his girlfriend on the show and then after we got done with that, he said, hey, can I still talk about duke? And uh yeah. Ray works in a subway in Kansas. There he says, when can we go to Florida, Ben and get together and do a barbecue with weed Man, hippie Ray, I'm good. Why don't you go for me? You can meet weed Man. I know that. Ed and Christina in Spokecane went to Miami and met met weed Man. So he's welcome to meet you and

you can go down there have a good time. But I'm not gonna do that. What city is he in? What's that? What? Florida? Yeah? We weed Man is in. Uh. He's in the hood in Miami, in the in the bad part. Oh, Miami Dade County. Yes, yes, says all of his neighbors are criminals and all that our day in San Antonio says if you were entered into a food eating contest, what would the food be that you would want to eat? Well, listen, not the one I

would want to eat chicken fingers. I'm all about that action, boss. I love my chicken fingers, So that that's easy, do you? Well? How about this though? Would you want them fried or breaded? Like? How would you prepare them? No? Like I would. I would have them breaded and fried, and I would I would put. I would compete against anybody in a chicken like if Raising Canes my favorite chicken finger place. If they had a chicken eating contest, the chicken figuer I

would win. What is your go to sauce? Then? Well, I like that at Raising Canes, well, honey mustards, would I prefer, But raising canes has a good sauce. I'll just eat that. It's like Mayo catch Up, some kind of combination of that. But it's pretty good. What if they serve it to you cold, like you did for me on your Christmas party? Well, the reason that was cold is because you showed up late. The food was very high when the party started. It's not the host

of the party's fault. When someone shows up within half an hour to go to the party end, it's not their faull. Today you are the host, so it's your job to the food the party starts. When the party starts, we show up, there's fresh, hot, warm food. If you show up two and a half hours after that, the food is room temperate. Listen, I'm west of the four O five. I demand high quality food. At least now

you're at least you're admitting you all right. Skip from Fall River, Massachusetts says guys, I listened to the last hour of your radio show. We're walking my dog. Any suggestions on getting him to get to his business and get it done quicker like before? Cowboy calls in. Yeah, so guess on you'd be an expert on this? How do you get a dog to ship quicker? Listen to your show for the full four hours, No, dummy, just

give a high protein high protein. Uh. But people feed their dogs different things nowadays, like one of my sisters which feed her dog shredded chicken, and other people and they do vegetables and rice and carrots and things like that, like a high protein diet as opposed to dog food. So I don't know. Do you feed your dog just straight dog food or do you cook up anything? Well? No, I feed the dog dog food, and then the dog gets the scraps. When I am a pig and I

drop stuff, the dog gets the stuff. It picks it up and eats that sucks. Bella goes around and eats it. So it works. A new in Owensboro, Kentucky writes and he says, guys, the Great Debate, I hop or Denny's Man, So I haven't eaten it. I hoped too much, but I'm gonna go. I'm I like the eye hoop, pancakes and concept. But since I've eaten it, Denny's more and

I work at a Denny's. A lot of people don't know there's Fox Sports Radio studios were in an old Denny's before it became Fox Sports Radio was a denny So I'm going Denny's because you got the variety, you get the lunch, you get the dinner, and the breakfast. I hop I know they have that stuff too, but it's mostly just a breakfast place. Yeah, And I've always been a fan of their French toast. I was always a sucker when I was growing up as French toast

fans at Danny's. So I'm going Dennis as well. All right, what is the most embarrassing public moment that you have had in your life? Zev in Franklin, Indiana is curious. Well, it depends. I mean you asked me right now. What pops into my head embarrassing moment? The story, and I've told it a few times. I was at the Fox lot.

We had a studio there for Fox Sports Radio and some some big TV people were doing shows during the day, and at that time in my career, I was doing updates and I was at Fox, the big Fox lot where Terry Bradshaw and all those guys work, and it was I loved it. This is before nine eleven ruined everything because we had access to the back lot at the Fox Lot, and we went where they make the movies,

and I would take my friends. Then they'd come to l A and we'd go around all the New York street scenes, you know, the fronts of the bill things. It was awesome. I loved it. And then nine eleven happened and they shut it down because you know, they had increase security and you had to have special access

to get anywhere on the lot. But but anyway, the point of the story is that I was working there and all these big powerful people at the Fox lot and I there was a chair in the radio studio and there was somehow there was like a screw or something that had popped up, and I sat down and it ripped the back of my pants from like top to about halfway down my leg where my right around where my little above my knee. So so I didn't

get up the rest of the shift. I just sat there, was like, all, you know, crap, what am I gonna do? And and then but I had to walk out, and you had to walk down this long hallway, you had to make a right turn, walk down another long hallway. Then you had to walk down two flights of stairs and you had to walk past a couple of security checkpoints to get out of the goddamn building. And uh, I was very up set. So I tried. I tried

to walk. I was like walking with my back facing the wall, like I was doing a sideway shuffle to get out of the building. It was so embarrassing. And then I was like holding my pants together, like hoping no one would see my big fat ass. It was. It was brutal. What about you? So I have one

that's similar to that, but I'll go with another one. Um. Back in the day when I when I was going uh to San Diego State for undergrad and I worked in real estate at the time, and a bunch of my friends were used to be in the military, Marines, Navy, Air Force, all that. I became friends with a pretty big group of people, like twelve guys and then all their girlfriends or wives or whatever. But anytime a guy had a birthday, it was like rookie hazing these guys.

The four of them lived at this house we call the House of Pain, and so whenever a guy had a birthday coming up, like no one ever publicized their birthday, but whenever they did, they would get their ass kicked well, one night, a bunch of us go down to Pacific Beach and on in PB. There's a street called Garnett in San Diego for those who are not yes, and there's a long strip of bars. It's all bars and whatnot.

So if you're a you know, a late you know, late early to late twenty year old, that's where you hang out. If it's not downtown, it's PB. Anyways, one of my buddies found out it was my birthday, and we go to this Mexican spot and these guys are ordering me shots. They're ordering me shots like shot after shot after shot with tabasco sauce in it, tequila, the whole nine yards. Ben. I threw up fifteen minutes into the night, and then I had you were like an

XFL receiver. Yes. And then that was when I was with my girlfriend at the time, so she saw me like vomit in the bathroom. I was a bad boy. She did look at that, but then she was so annoyed with me and all my friends that she took off with her girlfriends. We go to another bar and I started talking to a pretty hot female. But I

was hammered. But I remember how hot she was. As soon as I ordered another drink for myself and for her, my friends grabbed me by the throat and they dragged my ass out and in the middle of p b On in the streets of Garnett Benn A kid, you not. They tore my clothes, gripped off my pants, grabbed my belt and started whipping my ass like in front of this hot girl and a bunch of people, like all laughing. And I was so hammered. I couldn't walk, like I

was just discombobulated. I could not defend myself. I couldn't walk, and I was just left for dead. And then after they were done, they eventually like giving my clothes back and and whatnot. But it was an awful night. You know, it's like ten o'clock eleven o'clock, like friends and hang out with some stumbled ball morons. What's up with that? They defended our country so they could have passed with are all good people? So there you go? All right?

Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Maller Show week days at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific. Carlos in Bang Bang, Houston, Texas. Right, so he says, how long until you stop crying and bitching about the Astros, Carlos, I'll make it stump, you know, And it brings up a good point. I do do a lot of crying bitching. I will stop crying and bitching about the Astros the day after never. How about that? All right? The day after never, dummy, I'm gonna rip the Astros the rest

of my career. Rip rip rip rip rip rip rip rip rip rip. That's how I'm gonna do. You see that sham news conference the other day, guest good with the owner. I mean, I killed them on the radio, but the owner comes out and contradicts himself forty five seconds later. They had they had pr professionals coming and advise these idiots on what to say, and it was completely botched. It was like a Saturday Night Live parody of of how you should hand but it was unbelievable. Okay,

well what about this though? Because we got protagonists, we got antagonists. I actually think that Crane and the rest of the Houston Astros need to go full heel, like. I think they should acknowledge it, and I don't think they should show any remorse. I think they need to be the actual villains. Of the entire season for Major League Baseball, and I think that will be great for ratings.

I think that will be great for a draw, because we talked about attendance being down over the last two or three or four years and the ratings as well. You put these guys in a national scale against the Yankees, the Red Sox, the Dodgers, the Angels, now, whoever it may be, you're gonna have a bigger draw. Especially they turned themselves into what they are. That what we knew, they were cheaters, but they acknowledge it, and they'll say, so, what what are you gonna do about it? They need

to happen right. They issued a non apology apology, and but I've said, clue that you're listening to the monologues I've been doing on radio, because I've said the entire time that they shouldn't apologize, not because I don't think that. You know, in normal social circumstances, if I if I rip a fart at dinner, I'm gonna apologize, that's a bad job by me. But in a public situation, you don't apologize because eighty percent of the people don't believe

the apologies. Sincere uh that you're only doing it because you got in trouble, and the other are happy that you have the problem and they don't care at all as well, So it's it's it's a no win situation. And then it creates the headlines like if I was working for the Astros, the Sniper talked about it, will move on, will be in denial, whatever, because every day there's gonna be new stories that pop up. It's like a branch on a tree popping up all of a sudden,

out of the blue. And uh, but it's good for me because I got stuff to talk about for the you know, for the as far as the whole summer of the summer of apologies. And it's gonna be great to see because the Astros, I hope they blow and uh, I would love to see them missed the playoffs and uh, I can't wait how Verlanda gets lit up like a Christmas tree and be wonderful. I would love the defiance. I would up with them publicly to acknowledge, Yeah, we cheated.

What the fund are you gonna do about it? Well, that's pretty much the tone from most of these guys anyway, right they're spinning their wheels they haven't exactly evolved to a position where they're they're willing to be the villain. You know, they're not gonna even though to me their card carrying slimeballs, they haven't exactly embraced that, you know, publicly.

Even there's reading the body language, as I talked about on the radio, the body language, there's a lot of it's appropriate, as I said, because the astros are all about to tell, you know, bang on the trash can for a fastball whatever. There's a lot of tells the FBI uses. You know this because your dad worked in law enforcement. When someone's lying, like where their eyes are looking and what they're doing with their lips and all that, you can tell. And uh noticed a lot of body

language of liars, liars when they were apologizing. Lie light light light light light life. All right, what else do we have you? Let's see Zack Grass Valley, California, brobab Way Zack my brother, my younger brother got married in Grass Valley, California. I've been to Grass Valley. Where is that? It's in northern California. It is, I believe, between Sacramento and the Nevada border. It's like an old gold mining town. All right, Yeah, it's pretty cool. Um. I was only

there for a few days. But I've been to your town, Zac, and Uh, I'm not bad. Zack says, have you ever considered a daytime slot in radio? I used to do daytime, Zach. I did a midday show, and that was early in my career, at a midday show in the number one radio market, which is Los Angeles, and uh and then UH I ended up going to nights and UH stayed there pretty much ever since. But if they pay I play, that's the answer, Zact. If somebody is willing to pay me to work a day shift, I would love to

work a day shift. I'm all about it. I'd even pretend to enjoy the interviews. I would. Jim from Minnesota writes and says, I'm originally from San Diego and a listener since the mighty six ninety hacks on days. How about that, Gascott, that's in the beginning of my radio career and it's a lowly intern might and you worked for the head hot show the Arizona Diamondbacks, Derek call Right. I didn't work for him. He was a colleague of him at AM eleven fifty in l A. But but

at the mighty six ninety in San Diego. Anyway, Jim says, I now religiously listen to the podcast. I love the show. Ever thought about a Mallard militia Twin Cities visit? Can you negotiate a trade gag on for Blind Scott? I love Blind Scott. He moved from Boston. He's now in the Cape. Did you see that blind that? Uh he's gonna like rent out or sell his condo on the

North End. I think he's renting it out and I guess he just wanted to save some money and he was tired of He complained all the time about the trash on the streets and all that. And I'm not a great place to live when you're blind. You know, it's not really designed for the blind community. What I I completely agree, yes, But yeah, I'm happy for him. I mean, he's listening in a nice part of town now. So, yeah, the Capes where all the you know people go to

go on vacation and all that. Have you been there? Uh? No, I have not actually been in the Cape. I've been in that area, but I haven't been out to that. I need to get there at some point, you know, I've I haven't been there. I mean, what's school in Boston? But I haven't been there. I want to go to Newport Newport uh Rhode, Rhode Island. Yeah, I mean that's a resort, but the Naval the Naval Academy Museum is there,

um and they got all those mansions as well. I heard it's really really, really nice, So I'd love to go up there. I would like to go to the like Portland, Maine to check it out, you know. I like the whole I want to do the whole like corridor there, and I have not been able to because I've always been in Boston usually for work that requires you to get on a flight and flyer ass East Coast for five hours? Can you do it? What's that you gotta get on a flight? I've done it. I've

I've flown that. I've made that flight a bund Yeah, I mean, I don't like it. It's it's easier to go there than come back because you're going to gainst the jet stream coming back. It takes longer to come back, which sucks. Value is um Mark in Ottawa says, if you could only have one, would you prefer the Dodgers, Rams or Clippers to win a championship this year. Well no, no, I mean, I love the Dodgers to win, but the

Dodgers are cool and hip. The thing that would really piss people off in Los Angeles is if the Clippers win. And I would love every second of me and Clipper Darryl and russaf the celebrity Clipper fans, and we would have such a fun time. It would be amazingly great because chances are they going to play the Lakers. They'd have to beat the Lakers in the playoffs and then go to the NBA Finals and beat the honest Adenta Coombo and the Bucks. But yeah, Kauai has already done that,

and there's no Concerdner at all. So I would love the Clippers to win because especially the people I work with are all Laker historians, So that would drive them mad man, That would drive them to insanity, and I would love every second of it. Dan in Durham right Sin says, why is a team photo following an interception not an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty in the NFL? And no, I don't like people walking across my lawn. Players aren't props. Yeah,

I know. I like the fact that they allowed them to do the celebrations, and uh, for years the NFL didn't do it, and I thought that was dumb. Now sometimes it's ridiculous. There should be a rule when you're either up by thirty points or down by thirty points. Maybe not the right time to do it, time and place appropriate, But I have no problem with the celebrations. I find it pretty amusing. Who is your favorite showman

with celebrations? Well, in the recent NFL you're talking about or like old school NFL, I mean, because old school you go like Ikey Woods or you know, sink Johnson was awesome. He was entertaining, t O had the Great Popcorn celebration. He danced on the star with the forty Niners. That was pretty good. One got blasted too. I liked Merton Hanks the chicken dance, the old forty Niners defensive back with the long neck, who would do the chicken dance? Yeah,

that was good. Billy white Shoes. Johnson has thought of as the forefather of the touchdown celebration. But we we've seen you know, duck Duck Goose from the Vikings fake bench pressing, from the Steelers. In recent years, uh, like a NASCAR pit stop from the Chiefs. There's been some good stuff, but we creative. We haven't seen a video quite like the eighty five Bears and their defense. Like we need we need something like that. Well we have. It's called the Rams, who did the same type of video,

except they didn't win the Super Bowl. Can ram it all day? You can ram it all night? That was the same year, the same year. It's the same. It's on par with La Danian Domminson's video too. All right? Uh, Ethan in Detroit says with WrestleMania being announced in l A one, are you guys, who's your favorite wrestler? And will I see you guys at wrestle Media, Ethan, I would love to go. If I get free tickets, I will go. Um. But I was a huge fan of wrestling as a kid. Not too much into it now.

But my favorite all time wrestler is Russa. I love russefis a Mallemlsia guy, and that's my guy. What about you, Gascar. I was a big fan of the Attitude era, and I mean I grew up watching Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior. But my My two favorite were Stone Cold and The Rock. Yeah.

I have to tell the story sometime the night I was a celebrity w w E manager at an event in southern California and an event where George the Animals Steel, the late Great George the Animal Steel wrestling legend was on the card and I was part of that and it was awesome. I got to hang out in the locker room with all these guys. It was great memories. What were you wearing? Were you wearing anything that was

like with some pizzazz? Now I just had like they told us to wear a suit, So I had like a suit and I looked ridiculous because I didn't fit in it. It's too small the outs now it's now it's too big. Before was too small. Richard in Ottawa writes, and he says, why is it that tennis players apologize to their opponent when their ball clips the top of the net and falls over the net for a point, Yet baseball pitchers will hit a batter with a ninety

plus mine hour fastball and never apologize. It has always perplexed me. That's from Richard and Ottoma. Yeah, well, I guess baseball players are just douchebags and tennis players are over there isn't because tennis is uh, you know, kind of an uppity, uppity sport. You're supposed to be like, you know, good sportsmanship is demanded in that situation, right, and you get condemned if you don't play by the rules,

you're vilified. Yeah, it's it's pure on service though. I think that's one of the things that you look for is that if a guy is serving, it's over a hundred miles an hour, you're you're expecting the heat to come your way, and if it gets tied up in the net, then I mean, obviously that's a fault anyway, but you know, if it's on a backhand or forehand

while they're valling around, that's a little bit different. Whatever. Alright, Clinton Oklahoma says, what did you think of the first week of the XFL And have you picked the team to support? Yeah, we've covered that on the show, Clint, I don't have a team. I'm a gambler. Whoever I bet on I was gonna pick the l a team, but the Wildcat's nickname is so lame. I can't support a team called the Wildcats, so screw them. Until they change that name. I do like the fact they fired

the defensive coordinator after one game. John in San Diego says, over under on how many seasons the XFL last, over under one and a half, I'm gonna take the over. Vince McMahon has budgeted for three years, and they have TV deals, and as long as the TV people are interested, the thing's gonna stick around. What is the most ridiculous thing you've ever seen in Vegas? That is from Jordan's

That is the last question from the grab bag. Most ridiculous thing you've seen in Vegas probably Fremont Street, the guy walking around with his sock on his junk, and that's it. That would be I would think the craziest thing. Um, I saw Ron Jeremy, Oh boy with a table full of cord just women, like absolutely gorgeous. I just thought to myself, what the fuck I mean? These weren't even tens, These were like eleven or twelves. But it was a table.

I mean obviously he was probably picking up the tab anyway. Uh that didn't like him for his personality. Um I saw that, and uh did see Well, yeah, I'll go there. Ron Jeremy would just uh, a table full of littered women that were just amazingly hot. I've told you off the I don't know if I've said this on the microphone, probably not. But I was driving when I had an apartment in Hollywood. I got stuck in gridlocked traffic on

Hollywood Boulevard. There was some construction they had closed the street. So I'm driving down Hollywood Boulevard. I'm very upset. This in the days before you know, cell phones and all that stuff, yeah in your car, and it was a long time ago. So I'm going about a mile every

ten minutes if I'm lucky doing that. And there's a pay phone because this is in the era where pay phones existed, And this little strip mall on Hollywood Boulevard, and I see this, like, uh, this fat looking kind of bald thing with greasy hair in the back, guy in a Hawaiian shirt on the pay phone, and all of a sudden, people start honking and waving, and I'm like,

who the fuck is that guy? And sure enough I got closer and it was the great entertainer Ron Jeremy making a phone call on a pay phone in Hollywood on Hollywood Bothlevard, and people were googling and ogling ron Jeremy. Was he disheveled, totally disje Yeah, totally disheveled, just a complete mess. Oh that's great. How old is he now? He's gotta be Usually porn actors don't make it that old. But he's got to get be getting up there at

this point, right, Yeah, I don't know. I mean I would say on the birthday March twelfth, nineteen fifty's who's in his sixties? Right? Yeah, that's he's still he's still humming away in more ways than one. All right, Uh, study this five ft six Yeah, but everyone imporn smaller because the camera makes you look bigger, important, and some summer cards. It's important, all right, study this real or bullshit? These are actual studies. How much money did you spend

or are you planning on spend? Because we're recording this before Valentine's Day? How much money are you gonna spend on Valentine's Day for your significant another guest? Any want to answer that? Don't it? I'm gonna say. I'm gonna say forty five dollars? Alright, Well, according to the new survey, they say people together less than six months will spend an average of seven hundred dollars on Valentine's Day, seven ars. But people who have been together for over twenty years,

you know how much they spend? Nothing close sixty four dollars. Okay, so my forty five wasn't that far off. I didn't know you're doing at the time. I don't know you've been with your significant other for twenty years. I had no idea I buy. I buy gifts from my sisters, Is that right, sisters, mom nieces? Well this, let me point out that this year, guest on this year, I told my wife, I said, you know, we just dropped twenty dollars for you on Valentine I don't get fucking

sheep on her. Dude, I said, the kitchen's gonna probably cost about twenty grand by the time it's all done. So there you go. That's a weasel. That's a weasel right there. Nobody's too. As I've been together with her longer, we've now we're just like, don't don't buy me anything. Just you know, let's go I have a nice meal somewhere or something like that. A new study from finder dot com right shows that blank percent of men will buy a Valentine's gift for more than one part partner. Oh,

I'm gonna say California should be higher. I'm gonna say, you're very very close. You you did not go over, so you do win the showcase showdown. Thirty five point five percent. Thirty five point five percent of dudes are buying Valentine's Day gifts for more than one little lady. But that, uh, what percentage of women will buy gifts from multiple partners? About that? Say half? So I'll say like seventeen. Close. Again of the ladies have a little side action going as well. So how many gifts are

you buying this year? Guests? You buying a lot of gifts there. Yeah, I get families big, so i'd say nine nine gifts. Nine you have to buy family gifts for Valentine's Day? What do you buy? Candy or something? Uh? Yeah, I got the I got the little nieces. I'll do like the chocolate. I'll do the edible arrangement. So I'll do like the chocolate covered strawberries and apples and bananas. It was always good, I mean not like um, you know, I wish we had those like flower sponsors and that's

a good deal. Usually on the radio. They have the flower around this time. It's a it's a really good deal. They advertise on radio, but I'm not going to promote them because they don't advertise on my show. We used to do. We used to have that and I don't know if you remember the spots we used to have late at night. We used to have Cougar Love. Oh yeah, no, no, no, it's the Yeah, the Cougars are coming. The Cougars Are Coming was a website to try to get young guys

to date Mrs Robinson. Yeah, oh yeah. We had so much fun. That was such a ridiculous advertising campaign, but it was hilarious at the same time. It was I don't is that still around? Probably, I don't. I don't know. I haven't heard any advertising a long time. It's like they got a lot of venture capital. When they launched a lot of venture capital, they were going for it.

So there was a survey that reviewed the most Googled relationship questions in each state, and uh, you know what. The most popular question in these states was guest, what do you think the most? The most popular Google relationship question that

you know you asked Google was what is your political affiliation? No? No, it was how to break up? How to break up? People are asking Google how to break up? This is in New York Connecticut. Eleven states picked how to break a cup as the most Google relationship question. That's good. We live in a day and age though that people usually do it via text now anyway, I know, well that relating to that. California and Florida, the number one

relationship question was when the text back? That's that's like the new Remember when you know, I was younger, it was like, you know, when do you call somebody if they give you the number, you know you're supposed to call them right away? Do you wait three days? Is it the three day rule? But now it's so instantaneous with the text message, like you know, if the other person received the text message unless they have their block. Yeah, so it's I mean, you know what I'm saying, you

can't really wait, it's it's different. I feel bad. It's difficult now because they know that they sent it, and they know when you read it most of the time, and especially because you have the other locators, like you have Instagram that people will track you on Facebook, Twitter, and then you get the professional stockers that will look at you on LinkedIn, so sure you're you're covered all the way around. I also think that it's based on age group to right, Like I'd be more prone to

not respond immediately if I was in my younger twenties. Yeah, yeah, because you're a douchebag, you know. But I mean it's just you know, you know, I mean you're just a douche know, but it's like practice, right, Like you're just swinging for the fences every single time when you're you're younger twenties. Yeah, you're just trying to spread your seed and you don't really care you well, yeah, like you weren't either, assholet. I wasn't successful at it. That was fine,

But I wasn't successful at it. I mean, I'm not gonna lie. Yeah, I tried. I drove all over the place. There was no such thing as geographically undesirable when I was at that age. But now it's like, if you're not within driving distance, I'm you know, please come. How far have you driven for a piece? Uh? Well, Santa Barbara from from the O c Uh yeah, San Diego, but that you know, I worked down there, So was it worth it? No, that's not it was not worth it.

It's a long drive back. Let's see some more of these questions. How about Nevada and Florida? Oh, this is very romantic. The question they asked Google the most most googled relationship question? Am I in love? That wonderful if you got to ask? Now, this one's embarrassing. Five states, five states? Guests gone, I'm gonna tell you what was said. And let's see if you can guess the five states. Okay, uh, these are most Google relationship questions. How to kiss? What's

the question? Take the five states? You gotta get at least two of the five here. You should get. One is very easy. Can I guess what is Utah? Yes, that's the easiest one. We love our friends in Utah, but a little a little behind in some areas and more advanced in other areas. But yeah, that was the number one Google. The relationship question in in Utah was how to kiss? Yeah, I want to take a shot at one of the other states. Um, I can't do the Bible Belts. Yeah, it's not the Bible Belt. Can

I do? We'll just robb to the couple of caucuses that just transpired. How about New Hampshire? No, not New Hampshire. Okay, yeah, Um, I'll give you the other ones that we don't have a ton of time. The other states that asked how to kiss is the most popular question were, in addition to you taught, Delaware, Idaho, Wyoming, and Alaska. All right, because it's not a lot not a lot of women in Alaska. So I guess the guys are like, how do I kiss? I gotta do it right? All right?

How about this? Nearly forty percent of young Americans are claiming that they want to get married, but they're not getting married because of debt. Do you believe that? Yeah? I believe it. Yeah. I tend to believe it too. I just you don't want to excuse also, but it is. But you don't want to go into a marriage where you're chasing, right, like you're trying to chase the bill

like I didn't. I didn't get married in my late twenties because I didn't want to put our relationship and a potential marriage in in the red, you know, Like I didn't want to be where I'm chasing a degree, chasing a career, being in debt, and at the same time trying to appease a wife or not appeas of a a wife, but have a fruitful relationship where you're around all the time or at least enough, and to maximize it, like I would never want to do that to somebody else.

And then if you plan on having kids, then it's like, Okay, you gotta pick the wife and a kid or your career at least some dreams. So I never thought. I never thought I was gonna get married at all, because I mean, I had such a terrible time dating. I like, that's never gonna happen. So I never even worried about that. I and I had saved. I had saved every check. I never spent any money, so I had a ton of money and no debt that you ate out all

the time. Yeah, but I was one person. I made for five I was doing mid days in l A, making an s load of money. Uh, it was ridiculous. What happened that the amount of I made more money then that I make now as I growed up and I sucked at radio then and I made more money. What happened? What do you mean what happened? Like? Why did you move from that spot to where you're at now? Uh? Well, I took some real estate advice from Tom Looney and

that set me back quite a bit. And uh you know, I made some bad decisions along the way, and the rest assistant. That's why you need blind Scott in your corner. Blind Scott. He advised me to buy all these shares of a weed stock. The only weed stock that went belly up is the one blind Scott recommended. The stock was like ten dollars a share, and now it's worth a dollar forty asshole, fuck him anyway. A new study conducted at the Ohio State University finds that audiences of

movies enjoy blank much more than forgiveness, the blank vengeance. Okay, that also said the trailers. This is this falls into the same basket as what I always get when people say, Hey, Mollard, you're too negative on your radio. You know, I can't listen and I always respond by saying that when you do radio, part of you you want to be entertaining. I think the most important thing is to be entertaining, and that's important, but you also have to engage the audience.

And people do not respond to positivity. They don't if I go on and say everything's great, Oh my god, it's wonderful, it's rainbows and lollypops and puppy dogs and little babies, who the hell is gonna react. No one's gonna react to that. There is no no room for too much positivity, and there's no room for not having strong opinions. You've gotta have strong opinions. And most good strong opinions are from a negative perspective. And why do you think the the political and news realm right now

is the way it is? Like it's all yeah, like CNN and these networks. They they say, oh, I can't stand Donald Trump. Donald Trump is the greatest thing that has happened ever for cable television news. It is. It's wonderful. He is the gift. They they say they don't want him to get elected again. But I promise you, behind closed doors, if you gave these people true serum, they would absolutely, absolutely say yes, I would like this guy

to be reelected, because that's four more years of ratings gold. Anyway, what else do we have? All? Right, let's see here, this is a good one. Guest, got what percentage of Americans with romantic partners make an effort to hide their unhealthy eating habits from their better halves? So this is like that late night snack or whatnot. I'll say, I'll say it's a small one. I'll say it's like no bad job by you say they make unhealthy dietary choices

behind their partners back. Why most people let themselves go once they get into a relationship that's long term. But you don't want like, like, you know, telling you occasionally sometimes I'm on a pretty strict die. But on the weekend, sometimes when my wife's you know, doing something, I'll go in the back and take a big handful of eminem's, you know. But she she finds out because she she can she can tell the eminem smell. Why would you do that anyway? Why not? I like eminem, peanut Eminem.

She didn't go hide in the backyard and get away from your wife to go eat some eminem. No, But I mean I'm pretty good, Like during I'm pretty strangent on my diet. Is is you know that's the question, why would you go to the back? Are you embarrassed for eating Eminem's? Well no, but I'm just like, yeah, maybe I should probably should be doing this, But you know, whatever I do, it get like a fucking crack addict.

I love peanut Eminem's. I get a big thing of him at Costco and we have him in the house and that's on my cheek. Okay, so she knows that you bought those anyway, I mean exactly, So it's not I mean, it's not really like I'm not going out and eating a fried turkey behind your back or something like that after you lost your phone in some stupid brush. But that's after the fact. But what I mean, do you guys do peanut butter Eminem's and then maybe like a a some liquorice like the red We like the

peanut butter, the Reese's cups wonderful. Great? Uh? Are you guys doing girl Scout cookies now since it's the season? Oh my god, yeah, my my wife bought a bunch and I'm like, no, don't do that.

Who makes these? By the way, he's made in a sweatshop somewhere. It

doesn't matter. But but yeah, So this is actually Mike Harmon, who is like he's like the Godfather. He's like Uncle Mike with the with the Girl Scout cookies. He's like he knows that different Girl Scout troops have different cookies available depending on region, and he's like such a cookie girl Scout cookie expert that he scouts this stuff out and he's like, oh, kind of, there's two different kinds of lemon cookies. Which ones do you like? Ben So I told myself, I like ones with the frosting on

the back of the lemonade. Yeah, those are good. He said, I'll get you some huck up and said, no, you don't need to do that. And Mike don't do that. He's got a couple of daughters that hustle man, so that's good. It's great. And he's and he's like buying them and trading them with the Girl Scout troops in his area like he knows it's it's wild. He's got a hole, He's got a whole system. Barnard Barnard transaction going on with Bards hustling man. Now every package of

Girl Scout Cookies it says, do not resell. People resell these things all the time. There's a whole black market for Girl Scout cookies. There is. I will admit this to you. Um. The new season, the final season of Homeland just came out on on Sunday last Sunday, and I didn't get a chance to watch it live because I was working. I bought some thin Minton Girl Scout Cookies frozen and I ate the entire box during a sixty minute episode of of Homeland just a couple of

nights ago. I mean, you just can't stop breaking good it is. Yeah, that's probably what I'll be doing this weekend. I'll be while I'll be binging on Curb your Enthusiasm or something else, and just challenge down down on those things. A couple more we gotta get. There's some other stuff we must get to in time. Is of the essence what percentage of Americans say a dad bod indicates a man who's comfortable in their own skin. I'm gonna say

cut and a half. Fifty eight percent of Americans think a dad bod is someone who's comfortable on their own skin. That confidence is king and all that. How about this? Nearly four and five, both both women and men, seventy percent believe a dad bought as a sign of a man who is again confident and and they like, how about that something who aspire to the dad body? What is the equivalent of a dad bod for a female? And I was just thinking the same thing I would.

I had two This is a two part questions. So how about this? Think of that that one? Maybe more junn the trunk. Maybe I don't know. Okay, So what's the male equivalent of a female that gets uh harrack done? Oh yeah, I I don't know. Is there a male equipment? I mean, I guess you could get your Johnson extended, but you can't really show that off. Yeah. Uh, I don't know. Do people do guys get asked in plants like women get no? But I knew I do know.

Guys get caffine plants? Who knows? God? Really? Yeah? Your boy Tom Looney. Doesn't he have those the TV Dennis Tom Looney. Yeah, I don't know. There's a lot of examine his legs like you, you'll have to give me lessons. Well, guys, nowadays they're taking a ton of h G H. Yeah, there's a lot of steroids and h G H and that stuff. Yeah. Absolutely, I don't know. What is the what is the female equivalent of a dad? Bod? Email us the text us send us messages? Whatever? How about

this one? How many parents are giving their babies outrageous, outlandish names because of blank? Game of Thrones? No, why don't I take another guy? Um? Star Wars. It's something that we all use every day in our lives. Torush, what's that toothbrush? No? Social media? Yeah, they are creating made up baby names, these parents, these younger parents, because they want their child to have their own Twitter account and Facebook page and all that. They don't want the

name taken. And if your name is Don Johnson or you know, Bob Smith, chances are you're not gonna get your own account. And they so respondent believe a unique name will help their children stand out on social media. I believe that. I mean there's there's parents, especially in the Asian markets, that will pimp out their kids. Oh yeah, remember the story didn we tell the story on the on the podcast about the the woman that had a whole cottage business giving baby names American baby names to

uh people in Asia? Yeah, that one. And then there's kids. There's kids that have their own YouTube channels are like for TikTok the social media app, and their pimps, their parents on their pimps. Their parents actually control like the settings and and obviously what they're bringing in so they

monetize these platforms. And then ben there's kids that get shot opening presents like Christmas presents or birthday presents, and it's like a whole channel of kids that are making money off of their reaction by opening these gifts the world. If I ever have a kid out, mean, that's gonna pop that kid right on camera, boom, from birth, from cradle to grave. Gonna make sure it's verified though, right, yeah, exactly. Uh,

let's do we gotta come up. I just do one more and we can save some of these down the line. What percentage actually eighty percent, I'll do percent of Americans between the ages of eighteen and thirty four have never done what drugs? Drugs? Uh? No, how about never eating a big Mac? Do you believe that that sucks? That

seems impossible to McDonald's is everywhere everywhere world wide. Yeah, and this is just in America, but most people, when you're a little kid, your parents take you to get the Happy Meal, and you you grow up with McDonald's, so you eventually master the big Mac. Right. Yeah. The progression for me was always the chicken McNuggets as as a kid in the Happy Meal, and then it went yeah, big Mac, double quarter pounder. And then I went to

Carlison Jr. I defected. Then there was nothing but a double Western bacon cheeseburger, and I have that to this day. You still have the bacon that number four I call it. It used to be ben. Back in the day, a number four super size was five dollars and five cents. Today it's overall eleven dollars. Oh I know, yeah, it's uh well. I used to go to Tito's Tacos. I get like our favorite taco place. I go in there and I would get like five tacos for like you know,

eight bucks or something like that. Now it's like twenty five dollars or something like that. It's just ridiculous. And do you remember the big Max song they had back in the day. Remember that? No, I don't don't. It's before your time. I got you? All right, what do we have? Don't stick to sports stories of the week? Well how about this though? Can I nind of dip into me being a great wingman? Well it's you're being the narcissist, so of course you want to dip into that. Sure, well,

we gotta do this. This is a great story. And since we're talking about social media, um, you have you have now activated an Instagram account? Yes, yes, I have an Instagram account. Please follow me on Instagram. I tried to hook up the Instagram page to the Facebook page. I don't think it's gone very well. But uh yeah, it's it's Ben Maller on Fox. Is my Instagram page.

I'm I'm new on there. Yeah. Yeah, because there's another one with your name on it too, so you get that's not it's yeah, okay, So I bring that up because of this, Like I'm not really like. Instagram has its purposes for for many of things, for many of people, and when it comes to to my account, I'm usually not the most trustworthy because I will send like memes or videos or pictures to my friends at any given time and they'll do the same to me. Well, there's

a buddy of mine that lives in San Diego. I'll call him Danny Um. He's been dating this this girl for less than six months. I think it's like three or four months. And typically when we exchange messages on Instagram, it's usually stupid videos like car crashes or you know, people like falling from hang gliding crap like that. But at times will send like you know, the booty bumpers, the models, the Instagram models, and a lot of stuff.

So a couple of nights ago, ben I was peppering him with just a bunch of pictures of all these hot women and he wasn't responding, so I just kept doing it into the night. I come to find out the next day that his girlfriend saw all these messages and thought, like, what the fuck is this guy like cheating on me already in the relationship. And the guy confessed he flatt told her like, hey, my buddy and I like we always do this, da da, And she

started scrolling through the pictures I sent. This was last weekend. Ben on a Saturday night when this all erupted. The girlfriend thought all the women that I sent were hot. They went out on a date that same night and she said to him, pick a girl. She picked a girl that he wanted and they took her home. What. Yes, he was unfucking believable. He's I had no bullshit, I need videos, let's go oeo. It was, come all, wait a mint because not only for him? Okay, so maybe

she's a bit of a freaky freaky la. No idea? What he had, no idea? Wait a minute, I'm dead. Come on, but how do you circumvent? And you gotta get the other party to agree to it? Come on, dude, I have no idea. I was baffled. I was pissed, and I was baffled. It was unbelievable. And the guy is not even like that. But all of a sudden, he was, that's crazy, man. I'm glad to know that you. I'm not the only one you spam my phone. You other your other friends get spam from you all the time.

But I said, you like food pictures, which is different because that's yeah, because I'm yeah, you're an asshole. I'm fast thing. I eat like two meals during the week. I eat like on Tuesday and Thursday. During the week. I don't eat Monday, I don't eat Wednesday, I don't eat Friday or not till Friday night. But I'd skip and uh, And I got you el Donkey over there sending me photos of these massive cheeseburgers and tacos, and I mean it's just outrageous. It's a good alright, So

we're not sticking to sports. How about this one? A woman celebrating her twenties six birthday, Uh, suffered quite a burn. Ben. She actually went to a hibachi restaurant kind of like Benny Hanna's out here in Los Angeles when the grill exploded on both her and the chef. They both caught fire on the night of her birthday from a habbachi grill. Yeah. And where were they in a restaurant? Yeah? They were at the Kimono Japanese Steakhouse in Paragold, Arkansas. How about that?

Not to go there? They get bad habachis in Arkansass What you're saying, Yeah, have you ever been with Beny Hanna? I have never been. I was always offended because my name was in it, you know, Benny Hannah, and I was I was bothered by that. I've heard it's great, though, I'd like to go. I've never been to a Benny Hannah. Yeah. That they cook the food at the table right on the habachi. That's it's like giant flat grill. Yes, and they have like the rice, they have the meats, the

fishes that she do order. Um. Yeah, they get a big aims and stuff. They do a dessert on the table as well, So all kinds of things going on with that. But yeah, that's a good experience. A little pricey, but it's all good. You can survive it. Um. So, yeah, that was an interesting experience for her. She'd have a good lawsuit. It was like a big chain restaurant. I

don't think that's a chain restaurant. So she's not gonna be able to get up too much money because I'm guessing they don't have I thought have insurance, So I guess you can sue the insurance and get money that way. Yeah, you got to right, it's she signed some waiver release like hey, if you're gonna have dinner here, you're gonna

watch your face is gonna be on caught on fire. Yeah, I mean, well, listen, there's a you can sue for anything any place anywhere, make tons of money like crab, or not make any money and frivol Listen they throw it out. How about this? What about who who emailed you earlier? For Massachusetts? We had a couple of people Fall River. We had I don't know, I get to go back and look here Skip and Fall River, mass

We had your buddy there, Brian and north Bridge man. Yeah, so how about this one, Ben, I don't know how many how good your first dates have ever been? But a woman in Massachusetts became we'll say the wheelman. She went on a date with a guy after they had connected on a dating app and lo and behold. During the date, she became the unexpected getaway driver after the guy that she met robbed a bank while on their date? Is that the story that she wanted to tell the

police that I've never met this guy? And yeah, so the guy pleaded guilty. Did it work? What did what work? Did she get out of having to go to jail for being the getaway driver? Yeah? The guy got three years in prison plus a couple of years uh probation as well, the woman wasn't charged, but obviously she's got a great story to tell as as being the the accomplice or at least as soon as you put it, like you put a gun to her head or something

like that, is it? Uh? No, in all story, I guess what she did was she told the police that she picked him up from his parents house UH in Rhode Island. They drove thirty miles to UH to Massachusetts. They had some wine in the passenger seat of her car, um and then basically they they were going somewhere and all of a sudden, he got out of the car, went to a bank and UH and robbed it only

for a thousand dollars too. He had a gun hat. Listen, if you're going to rob a bank and go to jail for three years, you've got to get more than a thousand bucks out of it. What are you doing? Yeah, she didn't know what was going on. So like after he robbed the bank, he ran back in the car, was like, hey, let's go. She had no idea what was going on, panicked and then drove off. So wow, it's pretty good. Have you ever had any kind of

traumatic first dates? Have I? Yeah? I was on a first date and uh, and there was a shooting at the end of the date. I was taking the date back to her, walking through the car, and there was a shooting that took place, and all these people come

running down the street. Whether these women are wearing their like night the clubbing dresses, you know, and they had their shoes off, and they were running and screaming, and some guy had driven but I lived in Lincoln Heights and some guy had driven by and shot up this club and uh, and then drove down the street. All these people are running away and uh, screaming for their lives. And that was That was the last time I ever saw that. That woman. She was all right, my wife's hotter. So,

oh god, how about this? What are your telltale signs? Little woman's pregnant. I'm gonna guess you feel kind of sick in the morning and your stomach becomes in large. How about that? Yeah, those are pretty good indicators, right, unless you're really car bloading. Um. A twenty nine year old woman gave birth prematurely on a city sidewalk, and when she did it and officers arrived, she told him she had no idea that she was pregnant. She stupid.

Can you guess the state that's happened in? I don't know, give me a hit. It related to an answer I provided you earlier. That was number one answer. Oh, that's unbelievable. She went outside, observed, uh, observed something wasn't feeling great about herself, and then lo and behold um snap crackle pop. She had no idea. She told the police officers that she was pregnant, and then obviously she was in distress immediately as she heard some crime that was not from her.

It was from her a little infant, but all as well. So she drinking and smoking and doing drugs the entire time. The kid was in the womb. I hope not right. Well, not's in Utah, man, That stuff doesn't. Probably you're drinking milk occasionally, though, she went rogue. Guest had chocolate milk. Have you ever dated a Mormon? No? I have not. I had more when I a kid growing up in the o C. There, I was friends with some Mormon kids, but I know I have never dated one. No, have you?

Have you? I had a Vega story from with a Mormon. That's well, that's a one night stand. That's not really dated. I didn't I don't have sex with there, but it was a fun story anyways. Um, we got we got some other good things too. Uh all right, what else do you say I sent to you that story earlier? Um? The the majority of serial killers are Taurus. Yeah, you know, as a Taurus myself. I'm very proud of that. That And I wish I had known this when I was a kid. You know, why what do you like Steve

bushemy in? Uh? Was it Happy Gilmore or Billy Madison? Wh he puts the lipstick on? He has that like murder sheet? Well? Well no. The reason I wish that I had known this study when I was a little kid is because I would have used it to my advantage. Boy. Now, seriously, right, women, most women like a bad boy. They like an outlaw. I can say, listen, you know, I'm pretty buttoned up and all that. But I'm a Taurist, which means I

could be a serial killer. I have that in me. Right, come on, you don't want a nice guy, I'm a taurist. I seem like a nice guy, but at any moment I could become a serial killer. But that I don't know. How do I play for you because you're a bigger guy when you were younger. Yeah, but may it might have worked, you know, women just like a bad guy and all that stuff. Like I looked at the list. Did you see the list? And it's like there's a lot.

There's quantity, but not quality of serial killers. Okay, so I saw Jeffrey Dahmer was on there. Yeah, but Dahmer is not a tourist. But I don't think he's a tourist. Is no. But because it broke it down by months. O. J. Simpson wasn't even in there. Well he's he only killed two. That's not a serial killer. But John Wayne Gacy' is a famous one. He's a Pisces, right. Jeffrey Dahmer is a Gemini. By the way, Jeffrey Dahmer former Ohio State Buckeye Boom boom boom. How about that? Uh, they don't.

They don't like to talk about Ted Bundy, Sagittarius. How about that? These are the most famous serial killers I could recall, Like the guys that are taurus Is are H. H. Holmes, who they says the first modern serial killer I've ever heard of him? The Hungford massacre. I don't know who that guy is, the person behind that, I don't. I don't know most of these people. The werewolf of Wistaria, I don't know. I guess a lot of these are in England. Maybe that's why I don't know who they are.

Maybe I don't take you for a killer anyway. You probably a hard time putting down an animal. I've killed a lot of radio, done a lot of bad things with radio, bled a lot of ears. How about this one? Um? This happened in Pennsylvania. An elementary school called the police after a kindergartener with Down syndrome made a finger gun and pointed at the teacher. Is that right? Yes, but this is a kid that's gotta do z You know, he's got a issue, technical issue, And what kind of

moron that person should lose their job? You know, I'm usually not for people losing their job, but if you're that dumb, you're gonna call What are they trying to teach the kid a lesson or something like that? You will never do that again. So people will never do that again. So supposedly, she was following the district's threat assessment policy because a six year old child with Down

syndrome made a gun gesture. I mean what, no throat slash like it has to be a gun gesture from a childhood down syndrome like that's UNFUSA at six exactly, the bunch of dummies, ridiculous. It's the it's the world we live in. These are the people teaching the next generations. It's wonderful. It's your people. Well, it happens in Pennsylvania, So you don't hear that many good stories from Pennsylvania anyway, Right, mostly Florida. Most of that is Florida. It's a little

low hanging for it. And I'm good with that. Um, are you good on my stories? How about that? Do you see je Bezos spot a new house? Um? Probably every day he buys a new house. No what what housed over a hundred forty six million dollars out here in the West coast. Fucking wait a hundred and forty

six where's the house at? Uh? Well, I gotta look at the address or at least the location for Laurence Sanchez is a new girlfriend, right, Yes, I knew Lawrence Sad I dinner with Laurence Sanchez at the Laker games back at the Forum back in the day. How was she? How was she? Was she engaging? Was she nice? Oh yeah, she's a very bubbly personality. Um. Players loved her. They all wanted a date her. They were all hitting on her.

Shock and that era of the Lakers. Um. But it's amazing to me that she's now they're getting married, right, or they got married or something like that. A hundred and sixty five million dollar house, you know, but she's like married to Bezo, So she's getting married dating probably we would you want to get married to him? Oh? Sure, yeah, but I'm seeing like must have put a spell on him. That's wild, man. But she's a very attractive woman and all that. But that's like the biggest catch for like

in the female gender. That's the that's the home run. That's the richest man in the world. Yeah, a hundred sixty five million dollar house in Beverly Hills. Does that include what's the h o A on that? Dude? Can you imagine? Because much like registration for like a Ferrari or a Lamborghini, I wonder what the homeowners insurances? I forget that. I wonder what the property one point of a hundred sixty five million dollars. Oh, my god, you do the math. That is insane. That is great, that

is that is absolutely wild. You want to guess what his net worth? This? I know he sold some stock recently. I read that and that like affected it, But I don't know what is his network? Billion dollars billion? A billion is a hundred million, right? Yeah? Oh my god? Could you imagine? I don't know how many lives I would need to have to make that kind of coin. You never do what we do. We've never made. We do a free podcast, bro bonos. You would never make

that kind of of money. But it's crazy. Imagine if you were like a high school buddy of bezos, you knew him growing up. Does he just cut your check? You know? Does he just randomly hand out money to people, especially tight wad? Yeah, especially if you were loyal to him or a good friend, like if you got punk back in the day, but you're the one guy like his white Knight that kind of rescued him or hung

out with him. Yeah, I wonder if he was like a nerd in school and people like women wouldn't give him the time of day and all that, you know.
