0:16
Speaker 1: of that. So how much stock do you put into
0:19
Speaker 1: Colorado quarterback turned NFL hopeful Shedur Sanders now being compared
0:25
Speaker 1: to Mac Jones by a former NFL coach and Andy
0:30
Speaker 1: Dalton by a former NFL quarterback. Ahead of the twenty
0:34
Speaker 1: twenty five NFL Draft. We'll discuss that Ravens wide receiver
0:39
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins has been labeled just a name at this point?
0:45
Speaker 1: Is this inbounds or out of bounds? He came over
0:50
Speaker 1: from Kansas City and Bill's running back James Cook listing
0:53
Speaker 1: his house for sale after the GM said he doesn't
0:57
Speaker 1: foresee an extension anytime soon? Is there cause for concern
1:03
Speaker 1: where Bill's mafia? We'll get to all of those stories
1:06
Speaker 1: and more right now here it is our number three,
1:12
Speaker 1: the Mac attack. Wel come in the begetting of another
1:20
Speaker 1: hour of the Ben Malors Show. We are in the air,
1:25
Speaker 1: myware hob numbers as we are fair and impartial. Yeah,
1:31
Speaker 1: that's the ticket. Coast to coast border, the borter and
1:36
Speaker 1: beyond on the mast and markedly powerful microphones of fsr
1:43
Speaker 1: mbundating live from the lock the gridlock of the radio dial.
1:49
Speaker 1: We're broadcasting live from the Tiraq dot Com studios. Tyract
1:52
Speaker 1: dot com will help you get there. And unmatched selection, fast,
1:56
Speaker 1: free shipping, free road hazard protection and over ten thousand
2:02
Speaker 1: recommended in stallars. I know that the Dixter, Dick and

Speaker 1: Dayton loves that number ten thousand, so does Pete and
2:08
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh tire rack dot Com. The Way Tire Mind Show
2:13
Speaker 1: b coming up later this hour. It's ask Ban your
2:18
Speaker 1: questions and our answers, so make sure to send those
2:20
Speaker 1: questions in right now, otherwise the same four people will
2:23
Speaker 1: ask the same questions that they ask every other week.
2:26
Speaker 1: We'd like to have some new blood, some young blood,
2:28
Speaker 1: some old blood. I don't care. Just new blood in
2:31
Speaker 1: there and be part of Ask Ben. That'll be coming
2:33
Speaker 1: up a little bit later in the hour. But our
2:35
Speaker 1: lead this hour is from the NFL and the NFL Draft.
2:38
Speaker 1: We are now three weeks away. The countdown is on
2:45
Speaker 1: how many times are we going to get the updated
2:48
Speaker 1: mock draft from mel Kiper. Now. I know people back
2:53
Speaker 1: in the day a lot of these people don't work
2:55
Speaker 1: there anymore, but they used to work in that little
2:57
Speaker 1: fledgling cable channel in Bristol, Connecticut. And the running joke was,
3:02
Speaker 1: whenever there was a slow day in April, what you'd
3:05
Speaker 1: do is you'd have the Kuiper updated mock draft, and
3:09
Speaker 1: you'd have rising and falling, which I always find amusing.
3:13
Speaker 1: I find that comical, the rising and the falling of
3:15
Speaker 1: the mock draft. So, if you haven't heard the latest
3:17
Speaker 1: on this, and maybe not, some unflattering comparisons are making
3:23
Speaker 1: the rounds. Here. We're talking about Shadur Sanders, the Colorado player,
3:30
Speaker 1: one ex NFL coach comparing Shadur Sanders to the failed
3:37
Speaker 1: New England Patriot and current forty nine or backup Mac
3:42
Speaker 1: Jones Baba coming out of college, the former NFL coach
3:49
Speaker 1: the musing wondering whether he has any elite traits, and
3:55
Speaker 1: based on from the highlights I've seen and the scouting reports,
4:00
Speaker 1: the NFL community does not think that Shadur Sanders has
4:04
Speaker 1: elite trace. He has one. Let me let me clarify,
4:07
Speaker 1: he has one. His elite trade is branding. He's on
4:12
Speaker 1: the Dion Sanders hype trade. So he's got that, but
4:15
Speaker 1: other than that. Now, former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck turned
4:22
Speaker 1: into the Jockocracy world. He said that Shadur Sanders is
4:26
Speaker 1: in the Andy Dalton range, also not a compliment the
4:30
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton range of quarterbacks. So let us discuss the
4:34
Speaker 1: question how much stalk do you put in to Shadur
4:39
Speaker 1: Sanders being compared in recent days to Mac Jones by
4:42
Speaker 1: a former NFL coach and Andy Dalton by a former
4:46
Speaker 1: NFL quarterback ahead of the twenty twenty five NFL Draft.
4:50
Speaker 1: So I've got armpits, smoking gun and Zillow and we
4:57
Speaker 1: will combine all of the these things together and we're
5:02
Speaker 1: gonna make some Tazeki sauce, is what we're gonna make. So,
5:05
Speaker 1: first of all, it's a yearly tradition. It's it's like
5:11
Speaker 1: the swallows returning to Capistrano, like punk Satani Phil Will
5:14
Speaker 1: you see his shadow or not? I love reading the
5:18
Speaker 1: NFL draftnick previews, and I realize it's is it fiction?
5:23
Speaker 1: Is it nonfiction? It's it's all just made up. It's
5:27
Speaker 1: a cottage industry of hard ow football pundits, humorless dopes
5:32
Speaker 1: who obsess over measurables. And they've found a niche where
5:36
Speaker 1: niche and they're going for it right. They're worried about
5:38
Speaker 1: the twenty yard shuttle, the three cone drill. My favorite
5:42
Speaker 1: is the forty yard dash, which is only in the
5:46
Speaker 1: football world because Paul Brown was trying to get some
5:50
Speaker 1: dudes to play on the punt team and he realized
5:53
Speaker 1: that the people that played the punt team had to
5:55
Speaker 1: run forty yards, so he just wanted people that could
5:57
Speaker 1: run fast for forty yards because he said that on
6:00
Speaker 1: the punt team with a kickoff team. And now it's
6:03
Speaker 1: become this whole thing is michigos, how fast you? But
6:07
Speaker 1: I did find it refreshing. I'll use the word refreshing
6:12
Speaker 1: that prize draft picks are now being compared two second
6:19
Speaker 1: rate quarterbacks. For years, it used to drive me nuts,
6:22
Speaker 1: and I've done monologues on this in years past. I've
6:24
Speaker 1: compared how every year the top quarterbacks are always compared
6:29
Speaker 1: to the greatest of the great This guy throws the
6:32
Speaker 1: ball like Tom Brady and that guy looks like Peyton
6:35
Speaker 1: Manning all that stuff. So that is what happens most
6:40
Speaker 1: of the time, instead of the modern quarterback being compared
6:44
Speaker 1: to Lamar Jackson or Patrick Mahomes. It's Mac Jones and
6:48
Speaker 1: Andy Dalton. Right good or bad? Right predictions, whether they're
6:53
Speaker 1: good or bad, are kind of like armpits. You got them,
6:57
Speaker 1: I got them, we all got them, and they're all stinky.
7:00
Speaker 1: They also have stank. I remember that the draft is
7:04
Speaker 1: the greatest sports guessing game. Schadur Sanders, whether he makes
7:10
Speaker 1: it or not, going into the NFL, has a new alarm.
7:14
Speaker 1: He's got a weak arm. He lacks the velocity that
7:17
Speaker 1: the NFL scouts look for, and they claim because of that,
7:21
Speaker 1: he'll have trouble throwing into tight windows football jargon. And
7:28
Speaker 1: he's also not very fast. He's it's kind of like
7:31
Speaker 1: the hefty lefty Jared Lorenzen running around and so he
7:34
Speaker 1: takes a lot of unnecessary sacks. He's not mobile, and
7:39
Speaker 1: he's graded as a functional starter. But there's not a
7:43
Speaker 1: lot of upside. And now that said, he does have
7:48
Speaker 1: the primetime aura. He's got that rasthmatas and that's a
7:52
Speaker 1: lot of this, A lot of this is show business.
7:54
Speaker 1: You're in a business. You need stars. And even if
7:57
Speaker 1: he's not a real star, even if he's a fake star,
8:00
Speaker 1: you can sell that. You can sell that, you can
8:03
Speaker 1: can kind of make it work. But also remember the
8:07
Speaker 1: rule of thumb, all right, the rule of thumb. Nobody
8:10
Speaker 1: knows anything. It is difficult to forecast things, especially about
8:16
Speaker 1: the future, right, especially about the future, and people really
8:19
Speaker 1: can't can't forecast stuff about the future. Now. Secondly to
8:24
Speaker 1: both Damore Maryland, we go where the crabcakes are fresh
8:28
Speaker 1: and they sports with Coleman podcast is stale kid? All right?
8:33
Speaker 1: So an anonymous NFL executive pooh poohing any kind of
8:39
Speaker 1: impact that DeAndre Hopkins is going to have in Baltimore
8:45
Speaker 1: as he joins the Ravens in free agency of this offseason.
8:48
Speaker 1: The anonymous NFL executive saying of the big addition for
8:53
Speaker 1: the Ravens d hop that doesn't do anything for me.
8:58
Speaker 1: He's just an at this point, shots fire. He's just
9:03
Speaker 1: a name at this point. So question Raven's wide receiver
9:08
Speaker 1: DeAndre Hopkins labeled just a name at this point? Is
9:14
Speaker 1: that inbounds or out of bounds? So there is no
9:20
Speaker 1: need to go to an expedited review. I don't need
9:24
Speaker 1: to look at it one more time. It is completely inbounds,
9:29
Speaker 1: and it's a case of not whether or not DeAndre
9:31
Speaker 1: Hopkins has a Hall of fame resume, because he certainly does.
9:34
Speaker 1: But what have you done for me? Lately? Hopkins production
9:39
Speaker 1: has done the limbo? How low can you go? In
9:42
Speaker 1: recent years? Last year his yards per catch a career low.
9:48
Speaker 1: And I remember outscited the Chiefs for when they got
9:51
Speaker 1: him from from Tennessee, and they're like, oh man, we
9:54
Speaker 1: got the guy. We needed a guy. We got the guy.
9:57
Speaker 1: But he wasn't the guy. You're not that guy, Pal,
10:00
Speaker 1: You're not that guy. He was marginalized with the Chiefs
10:04
Speaker 1: and d hop he has he's mostly like a in
10:08
Speaker 1: this case, he's become at this point, he's become a
10:10
Speaker 1: situational wide receiver. And in the postseason he had if
10:17
Speaker 1: my math is correct on this, he had one catch
10:22
Speaker 1: for eleven yards in the entire postseason. Now, I didn't
10:26
Speaker 1: play in the NFL and I just host an overnight
10:28
Speaker 1: radio show. But I don't think that's good. I don't
10:30
Speaker 1: think that's good. Now. Furthermore, the smoking gun that backs
10:37
Speaker 1: up the anonymous NFL executive who says that DeAndre Hopkins
10:42
Speaker 1: is just a name at this point, the smoking gun
10:45
Speaker 1: is the contract, Like that's the smoking gun. The proof
10:50
Speaker 1: is in the contract. DeAndre Hopkins will turn thirty three
10:53
Speaker 1: in June. He signed a one year contract for five
10:56
Speaker 1: million dollars. He's gonna play his thirteenth NFL season. In
11:00
Speaker 1: my world, if I got paid five million dollars for
11:04
Speaker 1: one year of work, I would text everyone. I would
11:08
Speaker 1: call the people I can't text, and I would I
11:10
Speaker 1: would say, look at me, I made five million dollars
11:12
Speaker 1: in a year. I've made it. I've made the big money.
11:15
Speaker 1: I've made the Colin Coward money. I've made it big,
11:19
Speaker 1: and I'd be the happiest person in the world. But
11:21
Speaker 1: if you're an NFL player and you're making five million
11:24
Speaker 1: dollars a year in your thirteen season, that is what's
11:27
Speaker 1: known as a degnitive way. That is a deagnive way. Yeah,
11:32
Speaker 1: you're washed right now. Good for DeAndre. He wants to
11:35
Speaker 1: play and he's one of those guys. If you want
11:38
Speaker 1: to get rid of DeAndre Hopkins, are gonna have to
11:40
Speaker 1: have a pair of scissors because you're gonna have to
11:41
Speaker 1: cut the uniform off DeAndre Hopkins. And good for him.
11:45
Speaker 1: Keep going and going and going, all right, final fault.
11:50
Speaker 1: We head now to Buffalo, where America's favorite drag queen
11:54
Speaker 1: caller for Lexus celebrated a birthday this week, and Bill's
11:57
Speaker 1: running back James Cook looking to leave Buffalo. Say what now,
12:04
Speaker 1: he hasn't asked for a trade. In fact, he asked
12:06
Speaker 1: for a contract extension. We can also point out that
12:09
Speaker 1: there's a developing story here the Bill's running back James
12:12
Speaker 1: Cook listing his house for sale. His home is on
12:18
Speaker 1: the market, this coming after after the Bills. GM said
12:22
Speaker 1: he does not foresee a contract extension any time soon,
12:28
Speaker 1: any time soon for James Cook. Is there cause for
12:34
Speaker 1: concern for the Bill's mafia? Is there any kind of
12:37
Speaker 1: cause for concern? So I spent several minutes deliberating this
12:42
Speaker 1: story and I wrote down a z as in zippo.
12:48
Speaker 1: There is zippo cause for concern. Now we do love
12:51
Speaker 1: that Zillo is now giving us NFL news, that we
12:56
Speaker 1: are now getting NFL nuggets from a housing website. And
13:02
Speaker 1: as that famous slogan that was used to sell cigarettes
13:06
Speaker 1: back in the day goes, you've come a long way, baby,
13:09
Speaker 1: way to go, way to go, James Cook, it would
13:13
Speaker 1: appear as cantankers. That is the word I will use.
13:16
Speaker 1: He is combative, he is moody, And to that I
13:20
Speaker 1: say whooped the damn do That's what I respond. It's
13:24
Speaker 1: pretty clear that the bills at this point, barring some
13:27
Speaker 1: kind of eleventh hour change, believe that not only is
13:31
Speaker 1: James Cook a running back, he is not a straw,
13:35
Speaker 1: he's an ice cube. If you're the straw that stirs
13:39
Speaker 1: the drink, you get the money. If you're just the
13:42
Speaker 1: ice cube, you're not that important. You're gonna melt, and
13:45
Speaker 1: then you're not that necessary. You're not essential. The ice
13:48
Speaker 1: cube is not essential. The ice cube melts, the drink
13:51
Speaker 1: is cold for a while, and if you want another
13:53
Speaker 1: ice cube, you put it back in. But if you
13:55
Speaker 1: don't have the straw to stir the drink, and you're
13:57
Speaker 1: just a piece of ice, easily replaceable, easily easily. All right,
14:03

20:37
Speaker 1: Ekeon Roseville, Minnesota says an ankle tracker is what he
20:41
Speaker 1: wore far out. Dave in Ohio says he wore a
20:44
Speaker 1: cat in the hat hat Chiefs. Hi guy says, Maga
20:49
Speaker 1: Undy's is what he wore. How would you know what
20:51
Speaker 1: kind of underwear he wore? JT the Wingman says he
20:54
Speaker 1: wore crocs on the mound and sunglasses at night from
20:59
Speaker 1: Don Wand we got a lot of answers. I can't
21:03
Speaker 1: I can't read them all. Tom the Plumber said a
21:07
Speaker 1: Roberto Clemente jockstrap. It's over his pants. That'd be pretty good. Yeah,
21:14
Speaker 1: all right, see, I think that's a sign. Uh. And
21:17
Speaker 1: he did not wear ashless chaps. That was guessed by
21:19
Speaker 1: Joe and Boston also Richie. Both Richie and Joe went
21:23
Speaker 1: with assless chaps that he wore on the night. That's
21:26
Speaker 1: a wonderful guest.
21:27
Speaker 3: I mean, they do have very nicely shaped mass miss.
21:30
Speaker 1: I've never noticed that.
21:31
Speaker 3: I don't know, don't lie. I know you appreciate them nos.
21:37
Speaker 1: Well for some readyon when I watched volleyball, I noticed that,
21:40
Speaker 1: but I don't really notice it in baseball, Ricardo said
21:42
Speaker 1: a leotard speedo. All right, Lorena, do you have an answer? Lorena? Again?
21:46
Speaker 1: The Riddle of the Pirates closer Dennis Santana went viral
21:50
Speaker 1: for wearing blank on the mound.
21:52
Speaker 5: Yes, I think he was wearing Glinda's pink bubble dress.
21:57
Speaker 1: A pink bubble dress, Is that the answer? Unfortunately not?
22:03
Speaker 1: No pirates closer. Dennis Santana went viral for wearing what
22:07
Speaker 1: appeared to be shorts on the mouth. Shorts. Yeah, So
22:17
Speaker 1: what he had done is he, you know, the baseball
22:19
Speaker 1: pants go down to your your kind of your calves
22:22
Speaker 1: and then you pull the socks up and all that.
22:24
Speaker 1: But he pulled the pants all the way up to
22:26
Speaker 1: above his knee. So he looked like those nineteen nineties
22:29
Speaker 1: NBA players like Chris Weber and Alan Iverson in that
22:33
Speaker 1: era if you're old enough to remember in the NBA
22:35
Speaker 1: when they all wore the really long shorts and became
22:38
Speaker 1: a thing. So it kind of looked like that when
22:40
Speaker 1: he was on the map, but it was it was weird.
22:41
Speaker 1: It looked like he was wearing shorts. And do you
22:43
Speaker 1: remember the baseball team Lorena that actually had a uniform
22:48
Speaker 1: for hot summer days where they wore shorts. Do you
22:51
Speaker 1: remember that?
22:52
Speaker 3: Well, I would assume it somewhere that's really really hot.
22:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, what team do you think that was?
22:56
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say the Dodgers.
22:57
Speaker 1: Ben the Dodgers, well, very close to Dodgers of the
23:00
Speaker 1: White Sox. You know one of those.
23:01
Speaker 5: Two white socks wear white Sox.
23:06
Speaker 3: Were they red?
23:07
Speaker 1: No, they don't even wear a sock anyway. All right,
23:10
Speaker 1: so let me let me give a story story time,
23:13
Speaker 1: you know, let me bring blind Scott in on the
23:18
Speaker 1: on the story. Let me let me being blind. You
23:24
Speaker 1: know the story, you know the stuff, but you're not
23:25
Speaker 1: gonna spoil the story for me. Right, I'm gonna do
23:27
Speaker 1: the story. I would promise, don't don't you promise? By
23:35
Speaker 1: the way, this this portion of the show made possible
23:37
Speaker 1: by Tractor Supply. Tractor Supply knows that a winning season
23:41
Speaker 1: takes practice, teamwork, and a can do attitude. Thankfully, when
23:44
Speaker 1: you have a neighbor like Tractor Supply, teamwork comes easy.
23:47
Speaker 1: Whether you're caring for pets, chickens or a few wakers,
23:51
Speaker 1: our team members will help you succeed season after season.
23:54
Speaker 1: Tractor Supply for life out here. So years ago, I
23:58
Speaker 1: was doing the weekend overnight show here at Fox Sports Radio,
24:01
Speaker 1: and I started getting emails from this this gentleman who
24:05
Speaker 1: was living in southern California, and he was a big
24:08
Speaker 1: fan of the show, and he had. I didn't know
24:11
Speaker 1: a lot about him. He was. I knew he was
24:13
Speaker 1: a Clipper fan, and we we would go back and
24:15
Speaker 1: forth and we'd change emails a few times, and he
24:19
Speaker 1: said that he was away, that he was in Florida,
24:23
Speaker 1: so he was kind of a little homesick, and he was,
24:24
Speaker 1: you know, he was somewhat vague. And then one of
24:29
Speaker 1: the emails he said, well, I'm in Florida here, I'm
24:31
Speaker 1: training to become a wrestler, and you know, I see
24:36
Speaker 1: if I can make it in professional wrestler. And so
24:39
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, whatever, you know. I was like, sure,
24:41
Speaker 1: you are, you know, and I'm gonna be the Pope.
24:45
Speaker 1: And so I was, you know, I was, I was
24:46
Speaker 1: kind I mean, fine, maybe he is, I don't know.
24:49
Speaker 1: And then we'd stopped communicating for a little bit. And
24:53
Speaker 1: then a couple of years later, I see this guy
24:58
Speaker 1: at wrestle coming in on like a nineteen forties tank
25:04
Speaker 1: into WrestleMania, and the gentleman who was a fan of
25:08
Speaker 1: our show and used to listen all the time. He
25:10
Speaker 1: became the professional wrestler known as Russef in the WWE,
25:14
Speaker 1: and then Russef left his contract, ran out of the WWE,
25:18
Speaker 1: and he then became Miro And then we just found
25:23
Speaker 1: out yesterday that Rusef is returning to the WWE. He
25:28
Speaker 1: signed a new contract, so he was going back to
25:30
Speaker 1: the WWE, and a lot of you remember that story, now, Scott,
25:34
Speaker 1: you remember Eddie. Eddie thought I was lying that Russef
25:38
Speaker 1: was a fan of the show. Do you remember that. Yeah, Yeah,
25:44
Speaker 1: Russef called us up in the middle of the night
25:46
Speaker 1: one night he was driving between gigs in the wrestling world,
25:51
Speaker 1: and Eddie had to had to apologize.
25:53
Speaker 4: Eddie, his girlfriend thought there was a professional wrestler too.
25:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they were. And then I think they
26:00
Speaker 1: were actually married. I don't think is that just a storyline.
26:04
Speaker 1: I don't think they're married anymore. But they were talking.
26:06
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. But and then uh, and then
26:08
Speaker 4: he they let him go at WWE, and then I
26:12
Speaker 4: didn't know what happened. And we should have put that
26:14
Speaker 4: other network. And then he came back. But we had
26:16
Speaker 4: his dollar gear and everything he had, like, we had
26:18
Speaker 4: his dolls and everything, and yeah, we.
26:21
Speaker 1: Had listeners, several listeners sent me. I have some some
26:25
Speaker 1: Roussef dolls. He was such a big deal at the
26:28
Speaker 1: WWE that they had all kinds of merch.
26:31
Speaker 4: He was very twelve years ago. Yeah, twelve years ago
26:34
Speaker 4: was about when you went from weekends to weekdays. Was
26:37
Speaker 4: when his career took off and he was he was huge,
26:42
Speaker 4: but it was hard to tell. I mean, I don't
26:43
Speaker 4: know Lance would be great for this. It's hard to
26:46
Speaker 4: tell how much money they actually mad. But his celebrity
26:48
Speaker 4: was huge. He would invite you to go to these things,
26:51
Speaker 4: but it would interact with your time off and you
26:53
Speaker 4: were just trying. You had a weekend show, so you
26:56
Speaker 4: were trying to gain traction and you couldn't really take
26:59
Speaker 4: any time.
26:59
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, yeah, yeah, that's like when I used
27:02
Speaker 1: to get invited to those Super Bowl parties and then
27:04
Speaker 1: I never ended up going because I was never at
27:06
Speaker 1: the super Bowl. They used to invite me. I get
27:08
Speaker 1: invited like these top parties. And thanks for reminding me
27:11
Speaker 1: of that again, Scott, Thank you. How dare you?
27:14
Speaker 4: You're a pretty big deal though. You could do like
27:16
Speaker 4: an introduction type of things for the WW or you
27:20
Speaker 4: can go to UFC and drive there and do some fight,
27:23
Speaker 4: some intro fights for that, like Joe, I.
27:25
Speaker 1: Would totally I would totally do that. If they wanted.
27:27
Speaker 4: But you don't have an agent right now, right Like

Speaker 1: give you more information. And Big Lou from the LBC's

33:30
Speaker 1: To hang out with Big Lue. All right, let's go
33:32
Speaker 1: over to Coop for the reading of the questions on Askvan.
33:35
Speaker 1: Your questions are answers, All right.
33:37
Speaker 7: Ben, We're gonna start off with a question from Ferg
33:40
Speaker 7: dog Hi.
33:41
Speaker 1: Ferg.
33:42
Speaker 7: Yes, he would like to know are you a fan
33:45
Speaker 7: of shower bathtub combos or do you think they're death traps?
33:50
Speaker 1: Yeah? I don't like the shower bathtub combo. I grew
33:54
Speaker 1: up with them, I added my entire life. I don't
33:58
Speaker 1: need their death traps. Because I'm not old enough when
34:00
Speaker 1: I get to a certain age. The amount of people
34:03
Speaker 1: that break their hips in the shower is fascinating. It's
34:06
Speaker 1: a it's a very scary number. But I don't I
34:10
Speaker 1: don't like them. If you can have a separate bath
34:13
Speaker 1: and shower, that's the way to go, obviously. And I'm
34:16
Speaker 1: also a big believer in not used to me, the
34:19
Speaker 1: bath is not where you clean yourself. You take a shower,
34:23
Speaker 1: a quick shower, then a bath to enjoy the bath. Okay,
34:27
Speaker 1: So I don't like the people that think they take
34:29
Speaker 1: a bath and they're cleaned because you're just bathing your filth.
34:32
Speaker 3: That's what I thought.
34:35
Speaker 1: No, but I I'll what I do is I take
34:37
Speaker 1: a quick shower and then I get in the bath.
34:39
Speaker 1: That's my move. So I feel like it's not I'm
34:41
Speaker 1: not as dirty. Then yeah, I'm clean already. Is that
34:45
Speaker 1: just for me?
34:46
Speaker 6: Or is that I think it was for everybody?
34:48
Speaker 1: All right, Lorena?
34:49
Speaker 5: Yeah, if I was just talking to Coop about this
34:51
Speaker 5: the other day, I refuse to take baths in my
34:53
Speaker 5: shower because it's all in one and it absolutely disgusted me.
34:57
Speaker 3: So I would prefer separate.
35:00
Speaker 1: Gotcha cool?
35:02
Speaker 7: I don't take baths, so I would just I would
35:04
Speaker 7: rather it be a large shower.
35:07
Speaker 1: You're missing out, coop, A nice bubble bath. Not bad?
35:10
Speaker 1: What's next? What we got?
35:12
Speaker 6: All right?
35:13
Speaker 7: This is a question, it's kind of kind of related.
35:16
Speaker 7: It's from Lady Sideburns.
35:18
Speaker 1: Hi.
35:18
Speaker 7: Lady Sideburns says, I'm asking this again because it has
35:21
Speaker 7: yet to be addressed, even though I'm pretty sure I've
35:23
Speaker 7: asked it, but maybe not.
35:25
Speaker 6: Crew.
35:26
Speaker 7: How often do you change out your bath towel daily?
35:29
Speaker 6: Weekly?
35:29
Speaker 7: Or do you wait until it starts to smell like onions?
35:33
Speaker 1: Yeah? So when I was a bachelor, the idea of
35:38
Speaker 1: changing a bath towel was when it started to get
35:42
Speaker 1: mold and bacteria on it, right, then you would change
35:47
Speaker 1: it and all that stuff. But and now it's just
35:49
Speaker 1: a marrit and stuff. It's usually once a once a week,
35:53
Speaker 1: usually once a week.
35:54
Speaker 5: What about you, Lorena, I do every three to four shower.
36:00
Speaker 5: I washed my towel and I'll always hang it up after.
36:03
Speaker 1: How many showers do you take a day? Well, that depends,
36:08
Speaker 1: so it could be every other day.
36:09
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no, no, no, it's usually about three days.
36:12
Speaker 5: It's usually it's about three rounds.
36:15
Speaker 1: You have a rotation.
36:16
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I have multiple towels, so it doesn't matter.
36:19
