- 1:43Speaker 1: supermarket Steve has put ten thousand cans of tomato tomato
- 1:48Speaker 1: paste on the shelf over the years. But our lead
- 1:51Speaker 1: this hour is from the high Speed Transaction wire, as
- 1:57Speaker 1: one of my mentors and radio said back in my
- 2:00Speaker 1: San Diego days. But we've learned that a player that
- 2:04Speaker 1: we've heard of has been kicked out of the NFL playoffs.
- 2:10Speaker 1: His team has not been eliminated. We learned the Texans
- 2:13Speaker 1: have said bye bye to Deontay Johnson, bye bye, as
- 2:19Speaker 1: they prepare for their Division round matchup playoff game this
- 2:23Speaker 1: weekend against can City. So I don't know if you
- 2:27Speaker 1: saw this or not. Maybe not, Demiico Ryans, the coach
- 2:31Speaker 1: in Houston, said, Unfortunately with Deontay it didn't work out.
- 2:36Speaker 1: We're on to the Chiefs, taking a page out of
- 2:38Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's old quote book. Now, Johnson, playing only a
- 2:43Speaker 1: few games in Houston, had all of three catches for
- 2:47Speaker 1: twenty four yards in two games after the Texans claimed him.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Johnson off the waiver wire from the Baltimore football team.
- 2:57Speaker 1: That was just before Christmas. So let us discuss are
- 3:02Speaker 1: you surprised? Here's the question, are you surprised the Texans
- 3:07Speaker 1: are dumping wide receiver Deontay Johnson in the middle of
- 3:11Speaker 1: what is supposed to be a playoff run to the
- 3:13Speaker 1: Bayou and the Super Bowl. So I have home depot,
- 3:19Speaker 1: diagram and meal ticket, and we'll put all of these
- 3:25Speaker 1: things together, and we're going to make a well oiled machine,
- 3:29Speaker 1: is what We're going to make, a well oiled machine.
- 3:31Speaker 1: That'll be the first time that ever happens. So, first
- 3:33Speaker 1: of all, to answer the question, are you surprised, not
- 3:37Speaker 1: even a little bit. It is my belief that the
- 3:41Speaker 1: player Deontay Johnson, he's in his happy place. If he's
- 3:44Speaker 1: causing problems, that's how he is wired. That's how he
- 3:48Speaker 1: is wired. This is a player who is better in
- 3:52Speaker 1: theory than in practice. Now, there's guys like this all
- 3:57Speaker 1: the time. I've been doing this for a few minut
- 4:00Speaker 1: and it's so a few years whatever, and I can
- 4:02Speaker 1: go back to previous generations. There's always a couple of
- 4:04Speaker 1: guys like this in every sport that in some ways
- 4:08Speaker 1: are advantaged and in other ways are disadvantage. And it's
- 4:12Speaker 1: a weird, weird quagmire that these teams find find themselves
- 4:17Speaker 1: in because of the talent. Evaluators look at the skill
- 4:19Speaker 1: set and they get a little tangly, They get a
- 4:22Speaker 1: little tangly. They get excited that this guy's got the
- 4:25Speaker 1: repertoire to be an elite receiver in the NFL. And
- 4:28Speaker 1: there's always a team out there, always a team ready
- 4:33Speaker 1: to give you another chance. Right, easy come, easy go.
- 4:36Speaker 1: They leave one team and move on to the next.
- 4:38Speaker 1: And that's the way it goes. All they have to
- 4:41Speaker 1: do is hire the right locksmith and they can unlock
- 4:47Speaker 1: the combination lock and spiler alert, spoiler alert. The code
- 4:52Speaker 1: is impossible to crack if you go down to home depot.
- 4:56Speaker 1: And he said, if I could get a player like
- 4:59Speaker 1: Deontae Johnson at the home depot, which isile, that would
- 5:02Speaker 1: be I think it's Aisle ten where they sell the sandpaper.
- 5:06Speaker 1: He's very abrasive, very abrasive, Deontay this amazing factor. It
- 5:11Speaker 1: so in twelve months the last calendar year, Deontay Johnson
- 5:15Speaker 1: has managed to wear the uniform of one eighth of
- 5:19Speaker 1: the entire NFL. He was on the Steelers the Panthers,
- 5:23Speaker 1: the Ravens, and the Texans. He went a wall in Baltimore,
- 5:28Speaker 1: a wall in Baltimore, had a hissy fit in Houston. Now,
- 5:31Speaker 1: following the playoff win over the Chargers, is it true
- 5:37Speaker 1: that Deontay was huffing and puffing and pouting at his
- 5:43Speaker 1: locker and several prominent teammates went up to him try
- 5:47Speaker 1: to calm him down. Everything's'll be okay, everan there'll be okay,
- 5:51Speaker 1: And he was so upset that he just could not
- 5:54Speaker 1: could not calm down and clearly got carried over into
- 5:58Speaker 1: the work week here. And that has been a recurring
- 6:01Speaker 1: theme around the player and being, as you know, impartial
- 6:07Speaker 1: and completely objective. When you think impartial and objective, you
- 6:12Speaker 1: think the Ben Mathers Show, And so that's that's obvious.
- 6:16Speaker 1: But at a certain point you have to look at
- 6:19Speaker 1: the mirror, mirror on the wall and see that you
- 6:23Speaker 1: are the problem. You are the common denominator in all this.
- 6:27Speaker 1: Typically what happens is you have that happen when you're
- 6:31Speaker 1: done playing football, all right, right now, it's everyone else's problem,
- 6:35Speaker 1: and you're just perfect, made to order, ready to go player,
- 6:38Speaker 1: and it's everyone else's problem. All right now, turning the
- 6:40Speaker 1: page to the Fan Code of Conduct Department, the Fan
- 6:45Speaker 1: Code of Conduct Department, Philadelphia. The Eagle fan. You might
- 6:48Speaker 1: have seen this if you're on the social media pages.
- 6:51Speaker 1: If you're not, you're lucky. But an Egle fan involved
- 6:54Speaker 1: in what is now an infamous video one viral. This
- 6:59Speaker 1: is the cliche Philadelphia Eagle fan, the trope of an
- 7:05Speaker 1: Eagle fan, middle aged, very angry, spitting mad Eagle fan
- 7:12Speaker 1: who was hurling vulgar insults at a female Green Bay
- 7:18Speaker 1: Packer backer. And we have the results of this now,
- 7:24Speaker 1: so I can't say what he said. It was something
- 7:26Speaker 1: about wanting to see this woman next Tuesday, I guess,
- 7:29Speaker 1: but unfortunately I can't say what he actually said. So
- 7:33Speaker 1: he has now been fired from his job. The story's hilarious.
- 7:38Speaker 1: So this guy worked at one of those woke DEEI
- 7:42Speaker 1: consulting firms, you know, the bane of our existence in
- 7:45Speaker 1: modern society. And so they announced, well, this guy's no
- 7:49Speaker 1: longer impart. They had an investigation and they decided that
- 7:52Speaker 1: he is not part of the company anymore. In addition,
- 7:56Speaker 1: the Eagles have also banished him to Siberia. He's no
- 8:02Speaker 1: longer allowed to attend any events in the future at
- 8:06Speaker 1: Lincoln Financial Field the link. So he's out. So question,
- 8:11Speaker 1: how do you sum up the viral fan video leading
- 8:18Speaker 1: to this guy being banned from Eagle Games and fired
- 8:22Speaker 1: from his job for being lud and crude on camera.
- 8:28Speaker 1: So my first thought on this is follow the diagram.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Follow the diagram, Follow the chart. I learned a couple
- 8:34Speaker 1: of years back, and I've seen this many times. As
- 8:36Speaker 1: you can see, the more you f around, the more
- 8:39Speaker 1: you're gonna find out. F around, find out. This is
- 8:42Speaker 1: also one of those stupid quizzes like how dumb are you?
- 8:48Speaker 1: You don't realize the fallout of something like this if
- 8:51Speaker 1: it does end up going viral social media, mob justice.
- 8:54Speaker 1: And this cat was likely so schnockered. How schnockered was he?
- 9:00Speaker 1: This was his hallmark moment. He did not stop even
- 9:04Speaker 1: when the other fan pulled out the camera, the cell
- 9:07Speaker 1: phone camera. Now the other argument is, well, we don't
- 9:09Speaker 1: know the rest of the story, and then the counter
- 9:11Speaker 1: argument is, well, it doesn't matter what happened. You can't
- 9:13Speaker 1: say that word. That's a word, this taboo in American society.
- 9:16Speaker 1: You can't say the C word. Cannot do it, cannot
- 9:19Speaker 1: do it. At all. But this guy and that one percent,
- 9:23Speaker 1: that one percent lunatic fringe of fans. And there's a
- 9:28Speaker 1: lot of these guys. I've been to. I've been doing
- 9:31Speaker 1: an Eagles game in phil I've been to Phillies games
- 9:33Speaker 1: in Philadelphia, so I've seen Philly fans in action. And
- 9:37Speaker 1: there's a subset of zelots that treat everything like life
- 9:41Speaker 1: and death. Now, every fan base has a group. I'm
- 9:45Speaker 1: a Dodger fan. There's some Dodger fans that are on
- 9:47Speaker 1: the spectrum when it comes to that kind of thing.
- 9:49Speaker 1: They treat the Dodgers like it's their gang or whatever,
- 9:52Speaker 1: and they're there to defend to the death the Dodgers.
- 9:55Speaker 1: But there's a lot of guys in Philadelphia that are
- 9:57Speaker 1: just complete schmucks and all that. But this guy ends
- 10:00Speaker 1: up getting doxed, so now he's unemployed. It's absolutely comedy
- 10:06Speaker 1: gold that he's working for this DEI coman. I think
- 10:09Speaker 1: that's the funniest part of the story there. And there's
- 10:12Speaker 1: a saying in business that you're supposed to eat your
- 10:16Speaker 1: own dog food, right, if you sell dog food, you
- 10:19Speaker 1: gotta eat your own product. And so clearly he did
- 10:21Speaker 1: not eat his own dog food. Either that or the
- 10:25Speaker 1: alcohol took over. But it doesn't matter. You're consuming massive
- 10:30Speaker 1: amounts of alcohol. If you can't control yourself, you're going
- 10:33Speaker 1: to end up in a ditch on the side of
- 10:35Speaker 1: the road. All right, Final fun were going out of
- 10:37Speaker 1: college football. Collegent football. Well. TV ratings for the college
- 10:43Speaker 1: football Playoff semi final are out and they're doing a
- 10:47Speaker 1: yoga pos the downward dog. The downward dog. Yes, down
- 10:54Speaker 1: roughly seventeen percent year to year, down nearly seven percent
- 11:00Speaker 1: year to year. New twelve team format, the final four
- 11:05Speaker 1: played out a little bit later in the month than
- 11:07Speaker 1: normal in the past, and now we have one game left.
- 11:10Speaker 1: It is coming Monday. One game for all the money,
- 11:14Speaker 1: for all the money. So this has raised some eyebrows.
- 11:19Speaker 1: So I would like to ask the esteem Padel. TV
- 11:23Speaker 1: ratings again, for those of you are laid here. TV
- 11:25Speaker 1: ratings for the college football Playoff semi finals were down
- 11:28Speaker 1: roughly seventeen percent. They lost nearly seventeen percent of their audience.
- 11:33Speaker 1: Is this something or nothing? So it is something? It's
- 11:39Speaker 1: not nothing, it is something. This is a different animal.
- 11:42Speaker 1: It is experimental, meaning we haven't gone this far into
- 11:49Speaker 1: the month of January, and people over the years, we
- 11:53Speaker 1: all get programmed, we get set in our ways, we
- 11:56Speaker 1: don't want to change, and so it becomes becomes problematic.
- 12:01Speaker 1: So the TV audience, we can all agree on this.
- 12:04Speaker 1: Every man, woman and child can agree that in that business,
- 12:07Speaker 1: and it is a business, right, semi professional football really
- 12:10Speaker 1: pro football, they just blame it's semi professional. I'm fine
- 12:13Speaker 1: with that. For all that bullcrap. The NCAA and their
- 12:16Speaker 1: member institutions deserve the crap that they're dealing with right
- 12:19Speaker 1: now because of years of student athlete they were shoving
- 12:22Speaker 1: down our throats. But anyway, so this is the meal ticket.
- 12:26Speaker 1: This is it, This is the real TV is the
- 12:27Speaker 1: meal ticket. And you've got big brands who have been
- 12:31Speaker 1: in this playoff, some of them known as football schools
- 12:33Speaker 1: like Ohio State and Notre Dame, but just schools that
- 12:35Speaker 1: have big followings like Texas also Penn State football school.
- 12:41Speaker 1: And they all made runs into this thing. And you
- 12:44Speaker 1: lost four million viewers. That's nothing to sneeze at. If
- 12:50Speaker 1: you're running a business and you lose four million customers,
- 12:53Speaker 1: that's noteworthy. Now, before long, this thing's gonna be played.
- 12:58Speaker 1: I had one person tell me the way they're planning this.
- 13:02Speaker 1: They're gonna get to sixteen teams eventually, and why stop there.
- 13:05Speaker 1: Maybe they'll have the top twenty eventually. They'll just play
- 13:08Speaker 1: the championship game the week before the super Bowl. You
- 13:12Speaker 1: know how, there's that dead week, there's that period of
- 13:17Speaker 1: time there's not much going on, so they'll they'll do
- 13:19Speaker 1: it there boom. They'll put the game right there, and
- 13:21Speaker 1: then well the college football super Bowl, if you will,
- 13:24Speaker 1: and then then the following week will be the super Bowl.
- 13:26Speaker 1: But a being bought a boom. We'll see what the
- 13:29Speaker 1: audience does for that down the line. Stay tuned. Inquiring
- 13:33Speaker 1: minds would like to know as the plot thickens. It
- 13:36Speaker 1: is the Ben Mahlor Show. And the only thing thickening
- 13:40Speaker 1: right now is the sound of my voice. The sound
- 13:43Speaker 1: of my voice. Hey, a programming note if you love
- 13:46Speaker 1: game shows, I've been told that we're one of the
- 13:49Speaker 1: last of the Mohegans that play these dopey radio game shows.
- 13:53Speaker 1: We have one coming up a little bit later. If
- 13:54Speaker 1: you want to get online for that, get in the
- 13:56Speaker 1: on deck circle for too much or not enough, you
- 13:59Speaker 1: can certainly do that right now. I will have a
- 14:02Speaker 1: mini malor rant at some point of this hour, next hour,
- 14:06Speaker 1: a pet peeve of mine. And it has happened when
- 14:10Speaker 1: you try to do something right and it goes a
- 14:12Speaker 1: sideways because you're really not trying to do something perfectly right.
- 14:15Speaker 1: But time now for the malor riddle of the day,
- 14:18Speaker 1: the malor riddle of the day, not a sign of
- 14:22Speaker 1: the apocalypse, a mallar riddle of the day. And here
- 14:25Speaker 1: it is lari Ams tight end. Tyler Higbee was blank

- 21:27Speaker 1: probably gonna play this weekend. If that was a basketball player, yeah,
- 21:33Speaker 1: if that was a basketball player, we might not see
- 21:34Speaker 1: them until twenty thirty. Hockey player would play, right, Baseball
- 21:39Speaker 1: player be out three months. Football player likely going to play,
- 21:44Speaker 1: and the Rams being Philadelphia this weekend, Eagles coming off
- 21:49Speaker 1: win over the Green Bay Packers, and Higby at least
- 21:52Speaker 1: the early reporting is he'll play. We'll see if he
- 21:54Speaker 1: actually does play. As the Rams get a rematch with
- 21:57Speaker 1: the Eagles eight weeks after they got absolutely stomped by Philadelphia,
- 22:02Speaker 1: will they be able, Well, they didn't ram it that day.
- 22:05Speaker 1: The Eagles did the ramming. Will the Rams be able
- 22:07Speaker 1: to slow down Barkley? You want to make Jalen hurt
- 22:11Speaker 1: speech if Jalen hurts Beach, so that's fine, you want
- 22:13Speaker 1: to make that. And the Rams suffered some some secondary issues. Uh.
- 22:18Speaker 1: One of their key cornerbacks, a kiloh Witherspoon. He he
- 22:24Speaker 1: was injured, and I don't know if he's gonna play
- 22:27Speaker 1: or not. I haven't seen the I don't think the
- 22:28Speaker 1: injury report is out, so who knows. But that's where
- 22:32Speaker 1: we are on the rams. As you can ram it
- 22:35Speaker 1: all day and ram it all Night's go back to
- 22:37Speaker 1: the phones and we'll say hello to Trucker Tony, who's
- 22:44Speaker 1: in Chicago. Hello, Trucker Tony.
- 22:47Speaker 4: What's going on? Big Mallard?
- 22:51Speaker 1: Tell me Tony, how Chicago? You just passed?
- 22:57Speaker 4: But you know, listen to do on my long drives.
- 23:01Speaker 4: But I'm a little bit upset because you know, you
- 23:03Speaker 4: committed the crime and of bearing the league with talking
- 23:08Speaker 4: about McCarthy, right, I mean, yeah, yeah he got fired,
- 23:14Speaker 4: and yeah he's got a job interview going off. But
- 23:17Speaker 4: let's talk about the fact that the Bear set up
- 23:21Speaker 4: an interview with him, requested an interview with him two
- 23:25Speaker 4: weeks prior, and the King of Penny, Jerry Jones, slapped
- 23:32Speaker 4: it down like a net over his food, right, slapped
- 23:36Speaker 4: it down, only to fire him two weeks later, all right,
- 23:41Speaker 4: which is wild. Either he was just being penny or
- 23:45Speaker 4: he was tired of the guy using the Bears as
- 23:47Speaker 4: negotiation tools. Okay, second of all. Second of all, McCarthy's
- 23:53Speaker 4: the best option for the Chicago Bears because he has
- 23:57Speaker 4: a history of bringing the most out of quarterback. He
- 24:00Speaker 4: brought the most out of a certified bomb and Dak Prescott.
- 24:06Speaker 4: All right, the guy gets Tim Williams.
- 24:08Speaker 1: A year they won play Wait wait wait, they won
- 24:11Speaker 1: one playoff game with Dak Prescott. That was against Tom Rady,
- 24:14Speaker 1: who at that point was seventy five years old.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Yeah, well you have to tickets. Context of Dak Prescott
- 24:19Speaker 4: is a bomb, all right, Okay.
- 24:21Speaker 1: But Caleb Williams is a bum also.
- 24:24Speaker 4: Not yet, not yet, not yet?
- 24:26Speaker 1: Come on, did you see him play? He can't. He
- 24:29Speaker 1: has no idea like the basic game management, he has
- 24:32Speaker 1: no concept. Do you see the game on Thanksgiving? I
- 24:35Speaker 1: know you watched the game on Thanksgiving? Right the clock
- 24:37Speaker 1: ran out? He had no idea?
- 24:40Speaker 4: Hyeah, yeah, well he's a rookie. I'm just gonna say
- 24:44Speaker 4: he's a rookie.
- 24:46Speaker 1: You're giving him, You're You're Chicago's and you're excited, you're trying,
- 24:50Speaker 1: you're trying to be up and here I am being
- 24:53Speaker 1: a buzz kill. I got you. I will see what happens.
- 24:56Speaker 4: I see, I see a lot of problems I solved
- 24:57Speaker 4: with Justin Fields and him steal. But he's a rookie.
- 25:01Speaker 4: Justin Fields was three years he is doing this all right.
- 25:04Speaker 1: But yeah, but usually you know, you don't change that much. Typically,
- 25:08Speaker 1: you know, very rarely do you change.
- 25:10Speaker 4: Well, see, we've seen guys change from being very great
- 25:13Speaker 4: in their first year to be an absolute bomb.
- 25:15Speaker 1: Well. The other problem though, the other problem, the other problem, Trucker, Tony,
- 25:19Speaker 1: is that you see guys that will occasionally they're like
- 25:23Speaker 1: fake good, where like Sam Donald was fake good this year.
- 25:26Speaker 1: He was putting on MVP numbers. But you knew at
- 25:28Speaker 1: some point he was going to return, that the glass
- 25:30Speaker 1: slipper was going to crack and he would be the
- 25:32Speaker 1: old Sam Donald. And he was at the end, he
- 25:34Speaker 1: was the old Sam Darn with the Jets.
- 25:39Speaker 4: Absolutely this is true. And second, about this last thing,
- 25:42Speaker 4: I'm going to say, you are suffering from the very
- 25:47Speaker 4: common condition of the Mendima thing. That mirror mirror on
- 25:52Speaker 4: the wall reference that you used, and it is actually
- 25:55Speaker 4: magic mirror on the wall. Look it up and just
- 26:00Speaker 4: to mention it's magic mirror.
- 26:02Speaker 1: You can but Tony, that is you're not wrong I
- 26:06Speaker 1: know you're not wrong, But here's the thing, Tony. When
- 26:07Speaker 1: the legend becomes the fact, you go with the legend.
- 26:09Speaker 1: The legend is mirror mirror on the wall, So we
- 26:11Speaker 1: go with the legend. But I you're right technically, like
- 26:14Speaker 1: if you're going to be a douche about it, you're
- 26:16Speaker 1: you're right. But be safe and bring some cold, bring
- 26:18Speaker 1: some like rain. Can you bring some rain and snow
- 26:20Speaker 1: from Chicago? Can you bring that to LA because we
- 26:22Speaker 1: need it right now. Okay, Well it's.
- 26:24Speaker 4: Hard to bring him in the same container because it
- 26:26Speaker 4: ends up big rain all together.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Yeah, well we need some water. Just bring some water.
- 26:31Speaker 1: There's a lot of fires out here, so we need water.
- 26:33Speaker 4: Okay, Yeah, we'll talk to you governor.
- 26:39Speaker 1: No comment, no comment, all right, thank you. All right,
- 26:42Speaker 1: there's a trucker, Tony heading to the heading of the
- 26:46Speaker 1: West coast.
- 26:47Speaker 5: Actually, Ben, there was a action comedy movie in twenty
- 26:52Speaker 5: twelve called Mirror Mirror starring Julia Roberts and Lily Collins,
- 26:57Speaker 5: And I believe that is what you were referring to.
- 27:00Speaker 1: Clearly fan Lily Collins or whatever name. Yes, big fan,
- 27:05Speaker 1: big fan, one hundred percent. I can't get enough, do
- 27:10Speaker 1: we have a game show contest, Cooper, do we not
- 27:12Speaker 1: have someone here? No?
- 27:14Speaker 5: That was our first first clear line after that phone.
- 27:17Speaker 1: All right, well, we need somebody to call quickly eight
- 27:19Speaker 1: seven seven ninety nine on Foxball. We wait for that.
- 27:21Speaker 1: Let's say hello to Alame dea Lou who would like
- 27:24Speaker 1: to do an octagon in the next couple of days?
- 27:27Speaker 1: I believe? Is that correct? Alan oh Ben?
- 27:31Speaker 8: So I would love more than any octagon that I've
- 27:35Speaker 8: done prior to this one is pretty meaningless to me.
- 27:39Speaker 8: The opportunity to insult someone from Ohio on national sports
- 27:42Speaker 8: radio means more.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Gotcha? All right, So we need a Buckeye fan, a
- 27:49Speaker 1: fire breathing, angry Ohioan who would.
- 27:53Speaker 8: Like to Cincinnati. Cincinnati is a city in Ohio.
- 27:57Speaker 1: Right that last night? What it is mostly northern Kentucky Cincinnati,
- 28:02Speaker 1: but we'll consider it just across the state line. But
- 28:04Speaker 1: it's really more Kentucky than Ohio. But we will consider that.
- 28:07Speaker 1: So you want to You're you're throwing the challenge out
- 28:09Speaker 1: to Justin? Is that correct? You want to take down Justin?
- 28:12Speaker 1: You sure about that?
- 28:14Speaker 4: No?
- 28:14Speaker 8: I will take down Justin, not necessarily that literally, anybody.
- 28:18Speaker 8: I'm not gonna.
- 28:19Speaker 1: Lose this fight, all right, it's somebody wants to take
- 28:23Speaker 1: on our guy. You you love Notre Dame, You've loved
- 28:26Speaker 1: the Irish. You're proud Catholic since you were a little
- 28:28Speaker 1: kid right out of Medlu.
- 28:30Speaker 8: You grew up fighting Catholic school, Catholic school through and through.
- 28:33Speaker 1: All Right, I got you. I respect it. And so
- 28:36Speaker 1: you want to defend the honor of touchdown Jesus and
- 28:39Speaker 1: Notre Dame and all that. They're big dogs against Ohio State.
- 28:42Speaker 8: So it has nothing to do with that. The point
- 28:45Speaker 8: I want to make to you, any Ohio State fans
- 28:47Speaker 8: that is brave enough to take me on, is that
- 28:50Speaker 8: there's a reason that you love college football so much.
- 28:53Speaker 8: Me being from California, there's a reason we don't really
- 28:56Speaker 8: care about college football in California. We have profession little
- 29:00Speaker 8: sports franchises that win championships in the state of Ohio. Nothing.
- 29:06Speaker 1: So this is a preview of some of your You're
- 29:09Speaker 1: using some of your material that will be a strike
- 29:11Speaker 1: against you.
- 29:11Speaker 8: But thank you, I have so much more.
- 29:14Speaker 4: Can you forget to tell you?
- 29:16Speaker 1: Okay, cheap listening, Coop, let's set that up next couple
- 29:20Speaker 1: of days. Octagon, We'll have Alame too. We can get
- 29:23Speaker 1: somebody from Ohio who wants to defend the Buckeyes and
- 29:27Speaker 1: can bring the juice. We'll make that happen. We're gonna
- 29:30Speaker 1: make this happen right now. Though it's another Ben Meller game.
- 29:33Speaker 1: We've endured too many of these hazy too much or
- 29:36Speaker 1: not enough enough already, and we say hello to Rob
- 29:40Speaker 1: in Maine. Who's gonna play? Hello Rob, Hello Ben, welcome in.
- 29:45Speaker 1: Good to have you. We'll ask you a series of questions.
- 29:48Speaker 1: All the answers are too much or not enough. All
- 29:50Speaker 1: you have to do, Rob, is get three right, you
- 29:52Speaker 1: win the game, you get all five right, we'll name
- 29:54Speaker 1: the game after you for a week. Are you ready?
- 29:56Speaker 3: Rob?
- 29:57Speaker 1: Yes, sir? All right? What are you doing?
- 30:00Speaker 7: I'm to get right now, driving in there, thinking about
- 30:03Speaker 7: going to the BURBA.
- 30:03Speaker 4: Locked the down with that guy just for Drew Carrey's
- 30:05Speaker 4: on her and I can't stand the Notre Dame football
- 30:08Speaker 4: team to think it about it.
- 30:10Speaker 1: Well, if we can't get a guy from from Ohio,
- 30:12Speaker 1: would be great to have a guy from Maine. Just
- 30:14Speaker 1: attack a Notre Dame fan. A very good question. Number one,
- 30:17Speaker 1: Jamal Murray, it's a basketball player. He just became the
- 30:21Speaker 1: fourth player ever to score forty five or more points
- 30:23Speaker 1: in the game, with no other player on either team
- 30:26Speaker 1: even scoring fifteen? Is that too much or not enough?
- 30:32Speaker 1: Too much? That's correct, that's correct. He is only the
- 30:36Speaker 1: third player to do so, joining Paul Pierce. Heard him
- 30:39Speaker 1: and someone named Joe. Folks have no idea who that is?
- 30:42Speaker 1: Question number two. There are only three active players with
- 30:46Speaker 1: more postseason rushing yards than Josh Allen of your Buffalo Bills.
- 30:52Speaker 1: Is that too much or not enough?
- 30:55Speaker 3: Not enough?
- 30:57Speaker 1: Not enough? Let's find out. Nope, the answer is too much.
- 31:01Speaker 1: Only Derrick Henry has more postseason rushing yards with nine
- 31:04Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen Josh Allen at six hundred and nine.
- 31:08Speaker 1: The turnover at the running back position on a Sakwan
- 31:12Speaker 1: Barkley never really made the playoffs. I limited with the Giants.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Question number three, Yannis at denta koomball. This is for
- 31:19Speaker 1: Robin Maine. He just showed up the work. He's playing
- 31:21Speaker 1: our game. Ganis adenta komball. That's a basketball player. Just
- 31:24Speaker 1: became the tenth player in NBA history with fifty triple doubles.
- 31:29Speaker 1: Is that too much or not enough?
- 31:35Speaker 4: Too much?
- 31:37Speaker 1: Let's find out. Yeah, oh boy, you hit the skids here,
- 31:41Speaker 1: Rob not enough. He's the twelve player to do it.
- 31:44Speaker 1: So you gotta get these last two right. It's happened.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Are you ready?
- 31:51Speaker 3: I'm going.
- 31:53Speaker 1: You sound like Kevin O'Connor, a little bit like you're
- 31:56Speaker 1: conceding defeat. That's what it sounds like to me, all right.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Question number four. This is the sick consecutive year that
- 32:01Speaker 1: a rookie has thrown multiple touchdown passes in the playoff game.
- 32:04Speaker 1: Is that too much or not enough to stay alive?
- 32:11Speaker 1: Let's find out that's right. This is the fourth consecutive
- 32:15Speaker 1: year Jayden Daniels joining CJ. Stroud, Rock Perty and your
- 32:19Speaker 1: guy Mac Jones. Question number five. This is for the
- 32:23Speaker 1: win or the loss, Robin Maine. The plot thickens. Question five.
- 32:31Speaker 1: There are now only fifteen players ahead of Steph Curry
- 32:34Speaker 1: on the all time points leader board? Is that too
- 32:36Speaker 1: much or not enough? Not enough? Is that gonna get
- 32:43Speaker 1: your win?
- 32:45Speaker 5: That?
- 32:46Speaker 1: So? Good job by you. Rober came back.
- 32:50Speaker 4: You got it all the tack.
- 32:55Speaker 1: Jack, you just lost. You got those wrong for ratings purposes,
- 32:59Speaker 1: But thank you for a short on time. So you
- 33:01Speaker 1: gotta leave some time for lorrain. Now the Queen of Hearts.
- 33:03Speaker 1: Get your questions in hashtag Queen of Hearts. The answer
- 33:06Speaker 1: was not enough. There are twenty seven players ahead of
- 33:09Speaker 1: Curry all time on the points leader board. We are
- 33:12Speaker 1: going to have the Queen of Hearts with Loray. Now
- 33:15Speaker 1: we'll get to that. We'll do it next.

- 34:17Speaker 7: to point out. That is such a catchy tune. Coop's
- 34:19Speaker 7: over here singing it. He knows all the words. Pretty impressive,
- 34:25Speaker 7: pump bet.
- 34:26Speaker 1: I'm very impressed, very very impressed. Yes, I'm shocked. So
- 34:30Speaker 1: these are actual questions by actual listeners. This is from
- 34:33Speaker 1: Inca Terror Legend Hi Studio. I gotta get Inca Terror
- 34:37Speaker 1: back in studio one of these days when he's back
- 34:39Speaker 1: on the West Coast. He's in New York. He says,
- 34:41Speaker 1: I just received an invitation for a wedding in June
- 34:44Speaker 1: in Italy. The invitation specifically says dancing required, but I
- 34:49Speaker 1: am terrified of dancing. What is the quickest way to learn? Also,
- 34:54Speaker 1: would you like to be my plus one?
- 34:56Speaker 7: That sounds like a super fun time as long as
- 35:00Speaker 7: I guess.
- 35:00Speaker 1: Would you go? You get to go to Italy.
- 35:02Speaker 7: He'll take it to Italy, as long as I get
- 35:03Speaker 7: to dress up. That sounds like so much fun. Sounds
- 35:05Speaker 7: like a good time. I already plan on going to Paris, remember,
- 35:07Speaker 7: so two European trips sounds like a blast. I would
- 35:13Speaker 7: suggest taking dance classes. And you don't even have to
- 35:15Speaker 7: do it in person either. You have online options these
- 35:18Speaker 7: days too. But the problem is you don't want to
- 35:20Speaker 7: step on that person's toes that you're going to be
- 35:22Speaker 7: dancing with, so.
- 35:23Speaker 1: You won't be able to see their toes. But here's
- 35:24Speaker 1: the thing, how about this Lorena as a guy. It
- 35:28Speaker 1: is no good male dancers, all right? It did not
- 35:33Speaker 1: focus on the women. So you just get your hips. No,
- 35:38Speaker 1: you gotta move, just waddle a little bit. You kind
- 35:41Speaker 1: of look like you know what you're doing. Nobody pays attention.
- 35:43Speaker 1: They look at the woman. They look at a woman.
- 35:46Speaker 7: Are you a dancer?
- 35:46Speaker 1: But I'm a dancer. I go out dancing just kind
- 35:49Speaker 1: of like you pretend like you know what you're doing.
- 35:51Speaker 7: You do if you want to do it well. In
- 35:53Speaker 7: Italy though, think about that.
- 35:57Speaker 1: Who cares? Well, there's there's human beings in Italy. There
- 35:59Speaker 1: are few makes here like better in Italy. They're better
- 36:02Speaker 1: dances in Italy.
- 36:03Speaker 7: Maybe maybe they have moved their hips better. It's the wine,
- 36:08Speaker 7: all right.
- 36:09Speaker 1: Art O g rt Puffin says, He says, why is
- 36:11Speaker 1: why is it that I find it disgusting to to
- 36:15Speaker 1: have a meal after I guess his lady friend there,
- 36:18Speaker 1: But I don't have a problem with some tongue kissing.
- 36:23Speaker 1: Very odd. I cleaned that up for the radio.
- 36:26Speaker 7: Yeah, I can tell, so he doesn't he doesn't mind
- 36:31Speaker 7: eating after, but he doesn't know.
- 36:33Speaker 1: He does have I think an issue with the He
- 36:37Speaker 1: says it's disgusting to eat after, but does not mind
- 36:40Speaker 1: after what he can kind of use your imagination, Lorena
- 36:49Speaker 1: describing here, it's a very personal acts many people find enjoyable.
- 36:55Speaker 1: Many people wash. Take a minute, mouth washed, take time out.
- 37:00Speaker 7: Take a time out. Yeah, but also, don't be don't
- 37:03Speaker 7: be all weird like that if you're if you're doing
- 37:05Speaker 7: intimate acts, just you know, you already broke that barrier's
- 37:09Speaker 7: let it go, let it go.
- 37:11Speaker 1: Dive in.
- 37:12Speaker 7: Let's say it like.
- 37:13Speaker 1: That, Wow, dive in. All right, chomp chop, all right.
- 37:16Speaker 1: Deacon writes, In says, what is the weirdest thing, Lorena,
- 37:20Speaker 1: that you have heard a guy being into? Deacon Deacon blues.
- 37:26Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, it's called ABF. I'll let you google that.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Hold on, I say, let's see here.
- 37:37Speaker 7: Coops like google. Yeah, it was on a dating site.
- 37:41Speaker 7: It was on his thing. He was like, I need
- 37:43Speaker 7: a woman who's in an a BF. And I was like,
- 37:44Speaker 7: what is a BF?
- 37:46Speaker 1: And he has American breakfast at a hotel.
- 37:50Speaker 7: That's it.
- 37:50Speaker 1: For sure. Oh hold on, wait, okay, let me see
- 37:55Speaker 1: you here.
- 37:57Speaker 7: Apparently a lot of muscle builders, people who like to
- 38:02Speaker 7: work out, they also enjoy this, but they'll buy it online.
- 38:06Speaker 7: But some people like it straight.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Oh wow, oh wow, what was it? Yeah?
- 38:12Speaker 7: It's an abbreviation.
- 38:13Speaker 1: I just I just message, yeah, what it is? Okay.
- 38:17Speaker 7: I don't know if I can say that on them.
- 38:19Speaker 1: I mean, sure you can. You wanted me to say
- 38:21Speaker 1: the other thing, and I would want to that You
- 38:22Speaker 1: wanted me to say that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was
- 38:25Speaker 1: That is pretty odd. You You did a guy approach
- 38:28Speaker 1: you about that?
- 38:28Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 38:28Speaker 7: Yeah, and I was. I thought about it for a second,
- 38:31Speaker 7: you did, and I thought about the whole business too,
- 38:34Speaker 7: such good money.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Could you imagine?
- 38:36Speaker 7: Okay, could you imagine.
- 38:40Speaker 1: You can say, hey, I'm a I'm a woman, hear me,
