- 0:05Speaker 1: It's our number two. Our two. Ben Maller Show. And
- 0:11Speaker 1: we thank you for finding the podcast. Tell a friend.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Share the pod. Let a friend know about the pod.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Help us out a little bit. That would be nice.
- 0:21Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate that. So we had a blowout
- 0:24Speaker 1: of epic proportions in the World Series. A nine-run win
- 0:27Speaker 1: for Milwaukee. Manager Kevin Cash called the Rays' performance deflating.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Eight runs with two outs in the fifth inning for
- 0:36Speaker 1: the Milwaukee Brewers. How would you describe this performance by
- 0:40Speaker 1: Tampa Bay? Also, does Junior Caminero deserve the heat he's
- 0:44Speaker 1: getting for barking at his Rays teammates back in game two?
- 0:48Speaker 1: People connecting the dots saying, well, wait a minute. He
- 0:51Speaker 1: yelled at them. And they didn't respond. How much of
- 0:54Speaker 1: this is on Junior Caminero? Also, any advice to Pat
- 0:59Speaker 1: Murphy's Brewers? Up 3-0 in the World Series. One more
- 1:04Speaker 1: win and they get a piece of metal. One more win.
- 1:09Speaker 1: We'll talk about all that and more. We also have
- 1:11Speaker 1: Ask a Weed Man and Mallard to the third degree
- 1:14Speaker 1: here in our number two. The brew crew.
- 1:22Speaker 2: Chewing away, getting her done. Welcome in the beginning of
- 1:28Speaker 2: another hour of the Ben Maler show. We are in
- 1:32Speaker 2: the air everywhere beside one another. As we are paid
- 1:39Speaker 2: up members of the Malheur militia, coast to coast, border
- 1:45Speaker 2: to border, and beyond, on the vast and uncharacteristically powerful
- 1:50Speaker 2: microphones of FSR emanating live from.
- 1:59Speaker 4: The house.
- 2:00Speaker 2: Whose house?
- 2:02Speaker 1: The Mahler house, says Nick in Berkeley. The big voice guy,
- 2:06Speaker 1: Nick in Berkeley and Ernesto in the Bay. Remind us
- 2:10Speaker 1: this hour made possible in part by our friends at

- 2:31Speaker 1: not in the copy. However, I believe this is the
- 2:34Speaker 1: last thing left. Football. That is a communal viewing experience.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Everything else. Back in my day when I was a kid,
- 2:43Speaker 1: you watched stuff together. You don't do that anymore. You don't.
- 2:48Speaker 1: There's no reason. I mean, you're watching 8 million different things.
- 2:51Speaker 1: You know, some dope influencer on YouTube or Instagram, you're
- 2:54Speaker 1: watching that. You're not watching the same stuff everyone else is. Now,
- 2:57Speaker 1: Dominican Mike checks in and Manuel in Gardena, and they say, hey, Mallor,
- 3:03Speaker 1: can you tell me about Express? I said, sure, I'll

- 4:09Speaker 1: So our lead this hour. Don't bury the lead, as
- 4:11Speaker 1: we like to say around these parts. Our lead this
- 4:13Speaker 1: hour from the state of Florida. It was game three
- 4:18Speaker 1: of the Small Market World Series, the Tightwad World Series,
- 4:22Speaker 1: the teams that don't spend a lot of money compared
- 4:24Speaker 1: to the other good teams in baseball. And game number three.
- 4:29Speaker 1: It was on Fox. Did you watch? Did you watch? Well,
- 4:34Speaker 1: the Brewers trying to go up 3-0. You had Joe
- 4:37Speaker 1: Davis and John Smoltz. John, a professional golfer, occasionally does
- 4:41Speaker 1: some broadcasting stuff. They were side-by-side there. The Brewers looking
- 4:44Speaker 1: to put a chokehold on the series after holding serve
- 4:48Speaker 1: at home. I learned this in basketball. A series does
- 4:52Speaker 1: not start until the road team wins. Okay. Well, if
- 4:55Speaker 1: you didn't watch, perhaps not. The Milwaukee Brewers have now
- 4:59Speaker 1: started the playoff series. The Brewers moving within one victory.
- 5:04Speaker 1: of their first World Series championship as they crushed Tampa
- 5:10Speaker 1: Bay 10-1, 10-1 in Game 3, 10-1 in Game 3
- 5:20Speaker 1: of the World Series. Very rare do you see a
- 5:23Speaker 1: game that lopsided in the fall classic as Jackson Churrio.
- 5:29Speaker 1: That's the affordable Churrio. Jackson Churrio collecting not one, not two,
- 5:33Speaker 1: not three, but four hits, including a double, had a
- 5:36Speaker 1: stolen base. Milwaukee had 16 hits. 16 hits. The Brewers
- 5:41Speaker 1: erupted after instant replay. If there was no instant replay,
- 5:46Speaker 1: if it was like baseball used to be, the Rays
- 5:49Speaker 1: get out of the inning, unscathed, we're good to go. However,
- 5:52Speaker 1: there is instant replay. They went to the replay, and
- 5:56Speaker 1: the call was overturned at second base, and as a result...
- 6:01Speaker 1: That opened the floodgates and the Brewers erupted. They had
- 6:04Speaker 1: eight two-out runs in the fifth inning. Two-out. Eight runs.
- 6:10Speaker 1: Eight of them. Highlighted by Bryce Terang's two-run ribby single
- 6:15Speaker 1: and a rookie pitcher named Robert Gasser was El Domitor
- 6:20Speaker 1: on the mound. He allowed one hit over six innings
- 6:24Speaker 1: and he retired 14 consecutive Tampa Bay Ray batters. He
- 6:29Speaker 1: was a gift from the Padres. Now, the Padres traded
- 6:33Speaker 1: a gaggle of minor leaguers. The only one that turned
- 6:35Speaker 1: out to be any good... It's this guy. That was
- 6:37Speaker 1: the Josh Hader trade. Y'all love your prospects, and you
- 6:40Speaker 1: always say, oh, Maller. I got an email from a
- 6:42Speaker 1: guy from Wisconsin who said, hey, you always rip prospects, man,
- 6:47Speaker 1: but Gasser was a prospect. Okay, what about the other
- 6:49Speaker 1: three guys the Brewers got for Josh Hader? They're nobodies. Congratulations.
- 6:54Speaker 1: You got one, essentially one for one. You traded a
- 6:57Speaker 1: proven commodity for a guy, and who knows what's going
- 6:59Speaker 1: to happen to this guy, Robert Gasser. You pitched very
- 7:01Speaker 1: well in this game. Congratulations. You allowed one hit over
- 7:04Speaker 1: six innings. Did retire early. The 14 consecutive Rays batters.
- 7:09Speaker 1: The Brew Crew are now up three games to none
- 7:12Speaker 1: using Mallor math. That means that you only have to
- 7:15Speaker 1: win one more in the best of seven World Series.
- 7:19Speaker 1: And then it's all over for the team from Florida.
- 7:23Speaker 1: The better story, though, is in the losing locker room
- 7:27Speaker 1: as Tampa Bay. Capital I implode. Capital I implode for
- 7:33Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Rays. That's a good jumping off point.
- 7:36Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question. Manager Kevin Cash, postgame, Kevin
- 7:41Speaker 1: Cash called the Rays' performance, quote, deflating in the fifth
- 7:45Speaker 1: inning from hell for the Tampa Bay Rays. How would
- 7:50Speaker 1: you describe the performance of the Tampa Bay baseball team?
- 7:54Speaker 1: So I've got Hello Kitty. Chihuahuas and Parenting 101. That's
- 8:01Speaker 1: Parenting 101. We'll combine all of these things together and
- 8:04Speaker 1: try not to be eaten alive, which is essentially what
- 8:07Speaker 1: happened to the Rays. They were eaten alive. That's what happened.
- 8:10Speaker 1: So my first thought, number one.
- 8:14Speaker 4: Number one.
- 8:15Speaker 1: Number one.
- 8:16Speaker 5: Number one.
- 8:17Speaker 1: All right. So my word for this is how I
- 8:21Speaker 1: would describe it is foobar. As forget what the F means,
- 8:25Speaker 1: but it's up, just F'd up beyond repair. It was
- 8:31Speaker 1: just a complete foobar situation followed closely by the capital
- 8:35Speaker 1: E emasculating. Yeah. Now, Kevin Cash used the word deflating.
- 8:41Speaker 1: That was his word. And that's what happens to a
- 8:43Speaker 1: balloon at a kid's birthday party. That's what happens. This
- 8:47Speaker 1: was a full-blown World Series catastrophe. Everyone's all dressed up.
- 8:52Speaker 1: The 17 Rays fans were there. They were all dolled
- 8:56Speaker 1: up in their Rays gear, all fired up to watch
- 8:59Speaker 1: Tampa Bay in the World Series. And the stadium, it
- 9:03Speaker 1: was really road-field advantage. It seemed like on the television
- 9:06Speaker 1: broadcast there were more Brewers fans there But either way,
- 9:11Speaker 1: you go out there all dolled up, all ready, looking hot,
- 9:15Speaker 1: doing a pirouette in the catwalk, and then you go
- 9:17Speaker 1: out there and ride the vomit comet. And the Rays
- 9:20Speaker 1: did not just hit a pothole. They drove the team
- 9:24Speaker 1: boss to the very bottom of the Grand Canyon is
- 9:27Speaker 1: what they did with this performance here. The great test
- 9:30Speaker 1: of any championship team is how do you respond to adversity?
- 9:34Speaker 1: Things are not going well. And how do you respond? Well,
- 9:37Speaker 1: Tampa Bay, they did not respond. They crumbled like a
- 9:42Speaker 1: stale Ritz cracker back in the day in the little pieces.
- 9:47Speaker 1: And this was not a heavyweight knockout. The idea that
- 9:51Speaker 1: you lose 10 to 1, you probably think, well, the
- 9:53Speaker 1: Brewers must have brought back Rob Deere and Prince Fielder
- 9:58Speaker 1: and all these old sluggers of years. gone by, the
- 10:00Speaker 1: Hebrew Hammer, Ryan Braun. They all came back.
- 10:03Speaker 3: No.
- 10:05Speaker 1: That did not happen. There was no big bopper. The
- 10:09Speaker 1: Brewers did not have a big bopper. There was no
- 10:12Speaker 1: grand salami. Get out the rye bread and mustard, grandma. No,
- 10:17Speaker 1: there's none of that. There was a No 500-foot moonshot
- 10:22Speaker 1: to the heavens. The Brewers did not use a chainsaw.
- 10:27Speaker 1: This was not the Chainsaw Massacre, at least not the
- 10:31Speaker 1: way you'd expect it to be. So it was not that.
- 10:35Speaker 1: This was death by a thousand paper cuts. Dink and dunk.
- 10:40Speaker 1: Dink and dunk. And the Rays in a funk because
- 10:44Speaker 1: of the dink and the dunk, just like that. So
- 10:48Speaker 1: seven consecutives. Seven consecutive two-out hits. You know what that is?
- 10:53Speaker 1: That is death by 1,000 paper cuts is what that is.
- 10:56Speaker 1: It really is death by 1,000 paper cuts. So Tampa Bay,
- 11:00Speaker 1: they needed a tourniquet in the fifth inning, and Kevin
- 11:03Speaker 1: Cash went to the medical kit in the dugout, and
- 11:06Speaker 1: all he had was a Hello Kitty Band-Aid. And it
- 11:09Speaker 1: turns out that the Hello Kitty Band-Aid did not work.
- 11:13Speaker 1: So the Rays had a hole in their ozone layer.
- 11:18Speaker 1: And it was just from base hit after base hit
- 11:20Speaker 1: after base hit. Everything was out of whack. The Rays
- 11:23Speaker 1: looked like, when they were done here, a souffle that
- 11:26Speaker 1: had been slammed on the oven door. Just slammed it
- 11:32Speaker 1: right there.
- 11:32Speaker 3: Bam.
- 11:33Speaker 1: All right, now, page two. There is a conspiracy theory
- 11:36Speaker 1: going around. I want to spend a couple minutes talking
- 11:38Speaker 1: about it with you. I think it's interesting. So going
- 11:41Speaker 1: back to the weekend, the Tampa Bay Rays, you might
- 11:44Speaker 1: remember if you watched Game 2 over the weekend. Junior Caminero,
- 11:50Speaker 1: the third baseman for Tampa Bay, good player, Junior Caminero,
- 11:54Speaker 1: called out his Tampa Bay teammates in the dugout during
- 11:59Speaker 1: game two. You might remember Tampa had a sizable lead
- 12:03Speaker 1: in that game, and they gagged it up. There were
- 12:05Speaker 1: some shaky defensive plays for the Tampa Bay Rays. But
- 12:09Speaker 1: in that game, it was caught on camera. Junior Caminero
- 12:12Speaker 1: called out his Tampa Bay teammates in the dugout. He screamed,
- 12:16Speaker 1: according to lip readers, we're playing scared right now, biatches,
- 12:21Speaker 1: is what he said. It's a quote. You can say that.
- 12:23Speaker 1: It's a quote. Called them female dogs. All right, so
- 12:26Speaker 1: the question, does Junior Caminero deserve the heat? He's getting
- 12:31Speaker 1: some heat online because ever since then, it hasn't gotten better.
- 12:37Speaker 1: It hasn't gotten better for the Rays. So, question, does
- 12:39Speaker 1: Junior Caminero deserve the heat he's getting online for barking
- 12:44Speaker 1: at his Rays teammates? And what has happened since then.
- 12:48Speaker 1: So I'm going to nod my head yes. I'm nodding
- 12:51Speaker 1: my head yes on this. Junior Caminero tried to play
- 12:54Speaker 1: General Patton, the classic speech to motivate his guys. And
- 13:00Speaker 1: his troops responded like the French army in 1940. It
- 13:04Speaker 1: did not go very well. If you know your history,
- 13:06Speaker 1: it did not go very well.
- 13:09Speaker 6: At all.
- 13:09Speaker 1: So I imagine that that Caminero thought, hey, I am
- 13:12Speaker 1: delivering one of the great World Series motivational speeches of
- 13:16Speaker 1: all time. This is going to become the stuff of legends.
- 13:19Speaker 1: They're going to have bobblehead doll nights for me giving
- 13:23Speaker 1: this speech. It's going to be amazing to me, the
- 13:26Speaker 1: rallying cry for the franchise for years to come. Instead,
- 13:32Speaker 1: instead of that. This was the motivational speech that landed
- 13:37Speaker 1: like a wet mattress falling off a freeway overpass in
- 13:42Speaker 1: the middle of a monsoon. Did not go as planned
- 13:46Speaker 1: by Junior Caminero at all. He believed that this team
- 13:50Speaker 1: needed some tough love, so he gave the Tampa Bay
- 13:53Speaker 1: Rays some tough love in Game 2, trying to light
- 13:56Speaker 1: a fire under his teammates, and it turns out instead
- 13:59Speaker 1: of lighting a fire, the roster curled up. into the
- 14:04Speaker 1: fetal position and started sucking their thumbs is what they
- 14:08Speaker 1: started doing here, the Tampa Bay team. Caminero went full
- 14:11Speaker 1: Gordon Ramsay, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, and yelling and all that.
- 14:16Speaker 1: And the Rays are like, hey, listen, we're not Gordon
- 14:18Speaker 1: Ramsay level. We like the Easy Bake Oven. That's what
- 14:21Speaker 1: we like. Okay, good. You like the Easy Bake Oven. Congratulations.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Way to go. And so... He's like, I imagine Caminero's like,
- 14:28Speaker 1: we want some junkyard dogs. We want some dogs and
- 14:33Speaker 1: all that. And then instead he discovered that they did
- 14:36Speaker 1: get some dogs. Unfortunately, the Rays players were emotional support chihuahuas.
- 14:42Speaker 1: That's how they play. They were emotional support chihuahuas in
- 14:45Speaker 1: this game, game three of the World Series, an epic
- 14:48Speaker 1: choke job. And apparently the Rays roster, they don't like
- 14:54Speaker 1: tough love. Not a fan, not a fan of that,
- 14:58Speaker 1: and it's a bit of an issue. Confrontation, allergic to
- 15:02Speaker 1: confrontation for the Tampa Bay players there. Somebody might want
- 15:06Speaker 1: to get them an EpiPen because clearly they had an
- 15:09Speaker 1: allergic reaction in this situation. It was not good. So
- 15:13Speaker 1: after dropping a pair of brutal one-run games in Wisconsin,
- 15:18Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay team gets absolutely put into the blender
- 15:23Speaker 1: on puree. Just like that. And what a messy situation.
- 15:28Speaker 1: By the way, Junior Caminero, this could be his final game,
- 15:32Speaker 1: Game 4 of the World Series, as there's a chatter.
- 15:36Speaker 1: The Rays are going to trade him because he's good
- 15:39Speaker 1: and he wants to get paid. Of course, keep in mind...
- 15:42Speaker 1: There aren't going to be too many trades. The baseball
- 15:44Speaker 1: world's going to shut down December 1st. So there's like
- 15:46Speaker 1: a month to go, a little over a month. And
- 15:49Speaker 1: then that's it. Turn out the lads. The party's over. Now,
- 15:53Speaker 1: as for the Milwaukee side, where Jackson Churrio is the
- 15:58Speaker 1: star of the show, any advice? Here's the question. Any
- 16:01Speaker 1: advice to Pat Murphy's Brewers up 3-0 in the World Series?
- 16:07Speaker 1: Do you have any advice to Pat Murphy's Brewers? Yes.
- 16:11Speaker 1: I'm going to get on. the Malheur think tank. I'm
- 16:14Speaker 1: going to turn that on right now, the Malheur think tank,
- 16:16Speaker 1: which is never wrong. The Malheur think tank is never wrong.
- 16:19Speaker 1: So the Rays right now are lying on the canvas.
- 16:23Speaker 1: The Brewers are standing over the Rays. The Brewers are
- 16:26Speaker 1: looking down. Pat Murphy's Brewers are looking down at the Rays,
- 16:30Speaker 1: lying on the canvas, and right now the Rays are
- 16:34Speaker 1: seeing those cartoon birdies. They're seeing the cartoon birdies hanging
- 16:39Speaker 1: on by a thread. Now, when I say hanging on
- 16:41Speaker 1: by a thread... That thread is dental floss from the
- 16:46Speaker 1: dollar store. Bugatti the trucker went out and bought it.
- 16:50Speaker 1: It's that dental floss from the dollar store. Now, Yandy
- 16:53Speaker 1: Diaz and his pals on the Tampa Bay baseball team,
- 16:57Speaker 1: they're not just running on fumes. The gas tank is
- 17:00Speaker 1: empty at this particular point. And their championship dreams are
- 17:03Speaker 1: on life support. So here is my advice. From the
- 17:07Speaker 1: Maller think tank to Pat Murphy, it is parenting 101.
- 17:11Speaker 1: Parenting 101. Don't play with your food. Kids, don't play
- 17:16Speaker 1: with your food. What's wrong with you? That's it. That's
- 17:19Speaker 1: the advice right there. Don't just end it. This is
- 17:22Speaker 1: the fourth act of a horror movie. The villain is down. Down, down, down, down, down, down, down.
- 17:28Speaker 1: Don't turn your back. Do not turn your back if
- 17:31Speaker 1: you're the Brewers. Do not give Tampa Bay any oxygen
- 17:33Speaker 1: at this point and any hope that they have a
- 17:37Speaker 1: chance to bite back. So we mentioned this has been
- 17:40Speaker 1: mostly paper cuts, mostly paper cuts, but the Brewers at
- 17:45Speaker 1: this point can bring out the chainsaw and turn this
- 17:49Speaker 1: into the Milwaukee Chainsaw Massacre at this particular point. And
- 17:54Speaker 1: don't ruin the ending. We don't need, if you're the Brewers,
- 17:57Speaker 1: you don't need another sequel. That's it. And so there's
- 18:01Speaker 1: really no motivational speech that needs to be said. I
- 18:05Speaker 1: would go out and get some shovels and some brooms.
- 18:08Speaker 1: That's what I would do. And you finish burying the
- 18:11Speaker 1: Tampa Bay baseball team. Pat Murphy, he's got the champagne
- 18:15Speaker 1: chilling like a villain, chilling on ice. Just don't let
- 18:19Speaker 1: the rays turn it into warm grape juice. Do not
- 18:23Speaker 1: do that. It is the Ben Maller Show. If you

- 19:20Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Bill Parcells.
- 19:22Speaker 8: And I'm Catherine Zazzora.
- 19:23Speaker 6: I have a lot of experience in the game of football, Catherine.
- 19:27Speaker 8: And I'm learning the game with Bill's help. Every week,
- 19:30Speaker 8: we're going to talk about the NFL slate through the

- 19:35Speaker 8: fan to football expert over the course of the season.
- 19:38Speaker 6: You know, I'm looking forward to this show, Catherine, and
- 19:41Speaker 6: hopefully we can give our audience a little in-depth look
- 19:44Speaker 6: into the inner sanctum of pro football that they can't
- 19:47Speaker 6: get anywhere else. continuity is very important but what happens
- 20:01Speaker 6: when you get good coaches on your staff and people
- 20:04Speaker 6: begin to recognize them then they want to hire them
- 20:07Speaker 6: and then you can't stop a guy from trying to
- 20:10Speaker 6: improve himself but you have to replace.
- 20:12Speaker 8: Them Because once you understand what's going on inside the
- 20:16Speaker 8: mind of the coaches, you'll understand more about the whole game.
- 20:19Speaker 6: So all aspects can be discussed. The only thing I
- 20:22Speaker 6: haven't done, because I didn't have enough money, I don't
- 20:26Speaker 6: own the team.
- 20:26Speaker 4: I never owned a team.

- 22:05Speaker 1: Tester says, just wondering how many more Brewer fans are
- 22:08Speaker 1: going to be at Game 4. Sounded like it was
- 22:11Speaker 1: almost 50-50 for fan base representation. Yeah, it was. It
- 22:17Speaker 1: seemed like that on television. I watched the first five innings.
- 22:21Speaker 1: I have a rule when it's 10-0, I'm out. And
- 22:24Speaker 1: I was out. I went to the football game. I
- 22:26Speaker 1: flipped back during the commercials. I flipped back during the commercials,
- 22:29Speaker 1: but that was about it. That was it. Spock's Weed
- 22:31Speaker 1: says there were actually two vomit comets over the skies
- 22:34Speaker 1: of St. Petersburg. Imagine all the vomit. A whole lot
- 22:40Speaker 1: of vomit. A whole lot of vomit. What else do
- 22:44Speaker 1: we have? Jerry in a Jar writes in, says, I
- 22:46Speaker 1: had the Rays winning in Game 3. Freddy Peralta on
- 22:49Speaker 1: the mound. I'm still sticking with the Brewers in five.
- 22:54Speaker 1: Die on that mountain. Die on that mountain. All right,
- 22:57Speaker 1: let's welcome in the man, the myth, the legend, From Hollywood, Florida.
- 23:02Speaker 1: Hooray for Hollywood. Hooray for Hollywood. His name is Billy.
- 23:08Speaker 1: There he is right there. Hello, Weed Man.
- 23:11Speaker 4: Wow. Eight runs on two outs. I don't ever remember
- 23:15Speaker 4: that happening ever.
- 23:17Speaker 1: Sounds like your phone's bad. Bad phone. Bad phone. How
- 23:21Speaker 1: old's your phone, Weed Man?
- 23:23Speaker 4: Not that long.
- 23:24Speaker 8: Why?
- 23:24Speaker 4: What's wrong with my phone? There's nothing wrong with my phone.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Sounds a little.
- 23:29Speaker 5: You have to sing happy birthday.
- 23:31Speaker 1: Oh, that's right. You got to sing right now. Lorena's
- 23:34Speaker 1: demanding song.
- 23:34Speaker 5: Let's go.
- 23:37Speaker 4: Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday
- 23:45Speaker 4: dear Lorena. Happy birthday to you.
- 23:52Speaker 1: I told Lorena. That was beautiful. Thank you so much.
- 23:55Speaker 1: I actually told Lorena Weedman, I told her in their
- 23:58Speaker 1: production meeting, I said, listen, Lorena, either you're going to
- 24:00Speaker 1: get a million dollars or Weedman's going to sing Happy Birthday.
- 24:02Speaker 1: So now she doesn't get a million dollars, but she
- 24:04Speaker 1: got to have you sing, which is totally worth it.
- 24:07Speaker 1: It's totally worth it. Way better than a million dollars.
- 24:09Speaker 1: Much better than a million. Think of all the problems
- 24:11Speaker 1: a million dollars would provide, right? There's so many problems.
- 24:16Speaker 1: You wouldn't know what to buy. You know, you got
- 24:19Speaker 1: to pay taxes on that. It's a big pain in
- 24:21Speaker 1: the ass.
- 24:21Speaker 7: Big....
- 24:23Speaker 1: Big pain in the tuchus for sure. Any opening thought here, Weedman?
- 24:28Speaker 1: You've been doing this for a while. You said we're
- 24:29Speaker 1: going to fix the world. We have yet to fix
- 24:32Speaker 1: the world. So any advice here? Any wisdom you'd like
- 24:34Speaker 1: to share to begin the fun here, Weedman?
- 24:38Speaker 4: Oh, we got to change the world. We got to
- 24:40Speaker 4: make it better. I can't believe what this world is
- 24:43Speaker 4: coming to here. I can't believe Donald Trump is the president.
- 24:47Speaker 1: He said that every week. He's still the president. He'll
- 24:49Speaker 1: be the president for another couple of years. Yeah, I know.
- 24:52Speaker 4: It's so crazy.
- 24:53Speaker 2: I know.
- 24:53Speaker 1: It's a wild thing.
- 24:57Speaker 5: Ben, I would like to add to the verklempt. I'm
- 25:00Speaker 5: definitely a Saturday Night Live girl. You are the ultimate mensch.
- 25:04Speaker 1: Oh, well, thank you. I'm not a mensch on the bench. Well,
- 25:07Speaker 1: I am sitting, so I might be a mensch on
- 25:08Speaker 1: the bench.
- 25:09Speaker 5: No, you're the ultimate mensch. You have created the most
- 25:14Speaker 5: incredible family. You've adopted all of your fans, and everyone
- 25:19Speaker 5: loves you. So I see we have a great round
- 25:21Speaker 5: of applause for Ben.
- 25:22Speaker 1: Oh, look at that. I get applause, too.
- 25:24Speaker 5: All right.
- 25:24Speaker 1: No one's clapping. Oh, there we go. There are the
- 25:27Speaker 1: applause right there. I want you to tell you, Lisa,
- 25:30Speaker 1: this is how great you are as a caller. And, man,
- 25:32Speaker 1: I know you're going to get jealous. I had multiple
- 25:35Speaker 1: people reach out to me and say the top sports
- 25:38Speaker 1: call we've ever taken in recent years. Come on. No, no,
- 25:42Speaker 1: listen to me. Was from you ranting about George Steinbrenner
- 25:46Speaker 1: and the kids and all that. That was outstanding. That
- 25:49Speaker 1: was a great sports take. Yeah, Lisa had a great take.
- 25:54Speaker 5: Thank you.
- 25:54Speaker 1: She had a wonderful take.
- 25:55Speaker 5: Thank you. Just to add to that, I really wanted
- 25:58Speaker 5: to go off on a Billy Martin tangent because a
- 26:02Speaker 5: lot of this generation, they don't know about Billy Martin
- 26:07Speaker 5: walking on the field and throwing his.
- 26:08Speaker 1: Hat and They have no idea.
- 26:10Speaker 5: And the intensity of just like, I'm sorry to say this, but...
- 26:16Speaker 5: Back to Boone again. He's just sitting in the dugout, like,
- 26:19Speaker 5: chewing on his tobacco, and there's no energy.
- 26:22Speaker 1: That's all I have to say. Yeah, no, that's true.
- 26:24Speaker 4: I agree.
- 26:24Speaker 1: All right, we have questions. Are you ready to solve
- 26:26Speaker 1: all of these problems, Weed Man?
- 26:28Speaker 4: Let's do it.
- 26:28Speaker 1: Okay, here we go. First up is from Andy in
- 26:31Speaker 1: Lionel Lakes, Minnesota. He writes in and says, Hey, Billy,
- 26:34Speaker 1: nice to see that you're still trying to save the
- 26:36Speaker 1: world one step at a time. How do you feel
- 26:39Speaker 1: about all the political ads on TV and the politicians
- 26:43Speaker 1: with their hands out begging for donations?
- 26:47Speaker 3: Unbelievable. Right?
- 26:48Speaker 1: Yeah. Any advice? As someone that did a lot of
- 26:51Speaker 1: begging back in the day, Weedman, do you have any advice?
- 26:54Speaker 1: Do you have any advice for the politicians begging for money?
- 26:59Speaker 4: Don't you have political associations to get your money from?
- 27:05Speaker 4: Why do I ask the public for money?
- 27:07Speaker 1: How about this? I get texts on my phone from
- 27:10Speaker 1: people begging for money. How is that allowed? How did
- 27:14Speaker 1: they get my number? People are sending me politicians.
- 27:17Speaker 5: And a bit of advice. A bit of advice. Don't
- 27:20Speaker 5: give money because then they'll keep asking for more.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Exactly. They have enough money. And as always, you vote
- 27:25Speaker 1: for whoever you want. I always say anything that involves
- 27:27Speaker 1: raising taxes, vote no on. That's always my advice. That's
- 27:30Speaker 1: always my advice.
- 27:31Speaker 4: Who has your phone number? You're always private when you call.
- 27:34Speaker 5: I know.
- 27:34Speaker 1: I don't give out my number, but somehow they got
- 27:37Speaker 1: my number. These political weenies got my number, and now
- 27:39Speaker 1: they're sending me messages to donate to different people. And
- 27:42Speaker 1: I block them, but it doesn't matter. I block them,
- 27:44Speaker 1: and it's like whack-a-mole. You can't win. You cannot win.
- 27:48Speaker 1: All right. Truck Stop Fungus writes in, says, ask Weed
- 27:53Speaker 1: Man if he's ever eaten a can of Alpo. Have
- 27:55Speaker 1: you ever eaten dog food, Weed Man? No.
- 27:57Speaker 4: Why are you talking?
- 27:59Speaker 1: That's crazy. No, you have not. All right. Alf the
- 28:03Speaker 1: Alien Opina writes in. He says, hey, Billy, why are
- 28:06Speaker 1: you holding Lisa back? She's a star. She's got hot
- 28:10Speaker 1: sports takes. Let her cook. We want more Lisa.
- 28:13Speaker 7: Lisa.
- 28:14Speaker 4: She is and she has. Go on, Lisa. I'm a
- 28:18Speaker 4: big supporter. Are you kidding?
- 28:20Speaker 1: No, Lisa was great. King Rory writes in from Wisconsin
- 28:22Speaker 1: on Ask a Weed Man. Hashtag Ask a Weed Man.
- 28:25Speaker 1: He says, will Weed Man hippie watch the Super Bowl
- 28:28Speaker 1: halftime show since Jay-Z will headline it? There you go.
- 28:34Speaker 1: All right. Did you see that, Weed Man? Jay-Z's.
- 28:36Speaker 3: They asked.
- 28:37Speaker 1: The NFL hired him to find a halftime show. He
- 28:39Speaker 1: hired himself.
- 28:41Speaker 4: Well, I don't like that one.
- 28:44Speaker 1: You're not going to watch the Super Bowl? When's the
- 28:48Speaker 1: last time you watched the Super Bowl?
- 28:51Speaker 4: Oh, I watched the Super Bowl.
- 28:53Speaker 1: Oh, you do?
- 28:53Speaker 4: Okay.
- 28:54Speaker 1: I got you. I got you. This one comes from
- 28:58Speaker 1: Michael in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He says, Billy, do you like
- 29:02Speaker 1: pumpkin seeds? If I were to bake some for you,
- 29:05Speaker 1: would you eat them or sell them for weed?
- 29:08Speaker 3: By the way, how would.
- 29:11Speaker 4: I wish I could sell them to you.
- 29:14Speaker 1: I know, right? Who's going to buy pumpkin seeds like that, right?
- 29:17Speaker 4: I've never had pumpkin seeds. Ever.
- 29:20Speaker 1: What's that? You've never had them?
- 29:21Speaker 4: I've never had pumpkin seeds.
- 29:23Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't taste very good. I love pumpkin seeds.
- 29:26Speaker 1: I make my own. Well, it's not... The pumpkin actually
- 29:29Speaker 1: makes them, Lorraine. You just have to.
- 29:31Speaker 5: No, no, no.
- 29:32Speaker 7: You have to clean them and toast them and season them.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Yeah, but they're just... Have you ever done it, Ben?
- 29:39Speaker 5: Yes!
- 29:40Speaker 1: Long process. It is a long process. My mom, and
- 29:42Speaker 1: she made it seem like the greatest thing in the world,
- 29:44Speaker 1: and it was disgusting. It didn't taste good. You got
- 29:46Speaker 1: to cover them in salt or something else to make them...
- 29:48Speaker 1: You definitely have to season them. Yeah, they're not very good.
- 29:53Speaker 1: That's my hot take.
- 29:54Speaker 4: It's great that it's your birthday. You're 21 years old, huh?
- 29:57Speaker 3: I know.
- 29:58Speaker 1: I can't wait to get super drunk. Ah, yeah.
- 30:02Speaker 3: It's legal.
- 30:03Speaker 1: Any advice, Weedman? Any birthday wisdom you've picked up over
- 30:07Speaker 1: the years of your life here that you'd like to
- 30:09Speaker 1: share with the class?
- 30:10Speaker 4: No?
- 30:11Speaker 5: No.
- 30:13Speaker 4: Just love your life. Enjoy yourself. Have fun. Be happy.
- 30:17Speaker 1: There you go. Just be happy. It's not a long ride.
- 30:21Speaker 1: It's a short ride, but enjoy the ride. Enjoy the ride.
- 30:26Speaker 3: All right.
- 30:26Speaker 1: What do we have? Here's Mike from Parts Unknown on
- 30:31Speaker 1: the email. He wrote in. He says, hey, Weed Man,
- 30:34Speaker 1: Instagram is trying to take down YouTube with 90-minute videos
- 30:39Speaker 1: coming soon. Do you think they can do it?
- 30:42Speaker 4: No, why would they?
- 30:45Speaker 1: I agree. I think what they're trying to do is
- 30:48Speaker 1: to cut into the market share. Why are we asking
- 30:51Speaker 1: you this? You are on YouTube a lot, though, right?
- 30:54Speaker 1: That's your go-to spot. All the time. Yeah, you watch more.
- 30:58Speaker 1: You're on there like 18 hours a day on the YouTube.
- 31:00Speaker 1: But Instagram's trying to get some of the market share.
- 31:02Speaker 1: I think that's what that's about. They're just trying to
- 31:05Speaker 1: cut into the market share a little bit and see
- 31:08Speaker 1: if they can get some of that. Some of that
- 31:10Speaker 1: viewership that YouTube has, they control the world. The whole world.
- 31:13Speaker 4: I'm going to run into them.
- 31:15Speaker 1: Did you watch the World Series game, Weedman?
- 31:18Speaker 4: No, I didn't see each one.
- 31:19Speaker 1: You didn't watch it. You're not into the Tampa Bay?
- 31:21Speaker 4: No, Tampa Bay and the Washington.
- 31:25Speaker 1: Eileen in San Francisco writes in, she says, we need
- 31:28Speaker 1: a segment Yankee takes from Lisa. And she sent in Lisa.
- 31:32Speaker 1: She sent in a photo of Billy Martin next to
- 31:36Speaker 1: George Steinbrenner. The legendary Billy Martin's old manager of the
- 31:42Speaker 1: Yankees back in the day. How many times did he
- 31:43Speaker 1: manage the Yankees three or four times? You'd get hired.
- 31:46Speaker 4: Over and over, yeah.
- 31:47Speaker 1: You'd get fired.
- 31:48Speaker 4: You'd get fired and hired and fired and hired.
- 31:51Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 31:52Speaker 1: That was a different time back before social media. Didn't
- 31:54Speaker 1: the Yankees leave Yogi Bear at the airport? Didn't they
- 31:58Speaker 1: fire him? Yankee legend, they fired him. His manager left
- 32:01Speaker 1: him at the airport. I think that was it.
- 32:03Speaker 4: Left him at the airport. That's true.
- 32:05Speaker 1: I don't see any questions from Bozo, the district attorney.
- 32:07Speaker 1: Are you concerned that Bozo has not asked any questions here, Weedman?
- 32:11Speaker 1: Is that trouble?
- 32:11Speaker 4: How can Bozo be a district attorney? That's such a
- 32:16Speaker 4: crazy name.
- 32:17Speaker 1: All right. Tree from the 773. Everybody, Tree from Chicago
- 32:21Speaker 1: writes in. He says, wait a minute. Lisa is real?
- 32:25Speaker 1: What the hell? I thought she was AI. Unbelievable. Shout
- 32:30Speaker 1: out to Weedman. So Lisa, you're a real woman and
- 32:34Speaker 1: no AI. It's fascinating. But didn't we talk last week
- 32:39Speaker 1: about AI being, we talked about Ouija boards and stuff
- 32:42Speaker 1: we did when we were younger, like all the crap
- 32:44Speaker 1: that we played with, but now kids are AIs. That
- 32:47Speaker 1: has all the answers. I guess they have all the answers.
- 32:50Speaker 4: Are we always going to destroy the world somehow?
- 32:53Speaker 1: I don't know. Well, I'm not really worried about that.
- 32:57Speaker 1: You know how many... My entire life, people have said
- 32:59Speaker 1: the world's going to end. Eventually, it will end, but...
- 33:01Speaker 1: I'm not really worried about it. Shane. Yes.
- 33:04Speaker 8: Yes.
- 33:04Speaker 5: Just like the year 2000, everyone was saying like everyone's
- 33:08Speaker 5: bank accounts.
- 33:08Speaker 3: Yes.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 33:11Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 33:11Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 33:12Speaker 1: I remember there was a guy in our building. You're
- 33:14Speaker 1: the great art bell overnight legend, the greatest overnight host
- 33:17Speaker 1: of all time on coast to coast. He did about
- 33:20Speaker 1: two years of Y2K talk and then nothing happened. He
- 33:26Speaker 1: got from 1999 to 2000, 25 or 26 years ago,
- 33:30Speaker 1: nothing happened. Shannon Des Moines writes in, he says, what
- 33:33Speaker 1: was Weedman's first cell phone and when did he get it?
- 33:37Speaker 1: All right. Great questions. All right.
- 33:40Speaker 4: Long, long time ago. I don't even remember when, but
- 33:43Speaker 4: a long, long time ago.
- 33:44Speaker 1: I know it was a long, it was obviously a
- 33:45Speaker 1: long time ago, but did you have like, remember that
- 33:47Speaker 1: your early cell phones were like big brick type things?
- 33:50Speaker 5: Yeah, you had one.
- 33:51Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, I remember that. No, I didn't have one
- 33:53Speaker 4: back then. Ben, you know, Bitcoin is $ 124, 000.
- 34:00Speaker 1: I know. Why must you bring that up? I've explained
- 34:04Speaker 1: to you the situation that I was in. I know
- 34:06Speaker 1: you had your own issues. I know.
- 34:08Speaker 4: I had it when it was $ 5, 000. I remember it.
- 34:11Speaker 4: $ 125, 000 now. Crazy.
- 34:16Speaker 1: I had somebody, it was like a couple hundred bucks
- 34:18Speaker 1: that I could have got in on some Bitcoin years ago.
- 34:21Speaker 4: Wow.
- 34:23Speaker 7: Wow.
- 34:23Speaker 1: I believe I said, that's a scam. I'm not going
- 34:25Speaker 1: to take part in a scam. I'm smarter than you.
- 34:27Speaker 3: And yeah.
- 34:31Speaker 1: Trucker joe writes in from the highways and byways in
- 34:34Speaker 1: north america he says can weed man give the new
- 34:37Speaker 1: person who is waking up homeless for the first time
- 34:39Speaker 1: advice not me but someone i know doesn't want my
- 34:44Speaker 1: advice all right weed man so somebody ended up pulling
- 34:48Speaker 1: the wrong cards life gave them a kick in the
- 34:51Speaker 1: nuts and they're homeless what is your advice.
- 34:55Speaker 4: I was homeless. I mean, just hang in there. Look
- 34:59Speaker 4: for any opportunity you have to get a place. Get
- 35:02Speaker 4: a place. You'll find a place. Listen, there are places
- 35:05Speaker 4: to help you.
- 35:09Speaker 1: Yeah, there are, right? I mean, I think I've read
- 35:11Speaker 1: a little bit about that. There's a lot. of resources
- 35:14Speaker 1: that go unused because people don't know, either don't know
- 35:17Speaker 1: how to find them or they just would rather be
- 35:20Speaker 1: out in the streets and they don't want to have, because,
- 35:22Speaker 1: because I guess if you get a house, right, you
- 35:24Speaker 1: got to follow certain rules and stuff and you can't
- 35:26Speaker 1: just be running amok and, and that.
- 35:29Speaker 4: There are definitely organizations that will help you get a place,
- 35:32Speaker 4: even if you have no money.
- 35:33Speaker 1: All right. Curmudgeon Wayne in Duluth, Minnesota. You ever been
- 35:37Speaker 1: to Duluth, Minnesota, Lake Superior? Have you ever been there?
- 35:40Speaker 5: No.
- 35:40Speaker 7: No.
- 35:40Speaker 1: It's beautiful.
- 35:41Speaker 4: Beautiful.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Other than Curmudgeon Wayne, the people are pretty nice. He
- 35:45Speaker 1: wants to know what kind of weed you smoke there.
- 35:48Speaker 1: That's from Curmudgeon Wayne.
- 35:50Speaker 4: Great weed. They show it right down the block. I
- 35:52Speaker 4: have great weed all the time.
- 35:53Speaker 1: I guess he wanted the name of it. I don't know.
- 35:55Speaker 1: He wants to be just like you, I guess. I
- 35:57Speaker 1: don't know. Not sure what that's about.
- 35:58Speaker 4: It's since a million. It's since a million.
- 36:01Speaker 1: All right. On that note, Weed Man, we will move on.
- 36:04Speaker 1: But thank you so much to you and Lisa. What
- 36:05Speaker 1: a great couple you are. Great characters on the show.
- 36:08Speaker 1: We love you both. And take care of yourself.
- 36:10Speaker 3: I love you, Ben.
- 36:10Speaker 1: Thank you. All right. Be well.
- 36:12Speaker 4: Happy birthday, Elena.
- 36:13Speaker 7: Happy birthday.
- 36:13Speaker 1: Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. There they go. Look
- 36:19Speaker 1: at that. Weed Man and Lisa side by side.
- 36:24Speaker 7: I think Lisa's a serious contender for female caller of
- 36:26Speaker 7: the year.
- 36:27Speaker 1: There's not a lot of competition. She's great. The ladies
- 36:30Speaker 1: have not been stepping up as callers to the show.
- 36:32Speaker 1: We have a good number of women on the X machine,
- 36:34Speaker 1: but they don't actually call the show. I scared them
- 36:36Speaker 1: all off, Ben. I think you did. I'm blaming you.
- 36:39Speaker 1: All right, time now for the Insta trivia, and here
- 36:42Speaker 1: it is. The Insta trivia. At 22 years and 229

- 38:30Speaker 1: 229 days old. Brewers outfielder Jackson Churrio became the youngest
- 38:34Speaker 1: player to collect four hits in a World Series game
- 38:37Speaker 1: since blank. And that is the question. What is the answer?
- 38:42Speaker 1: Let's see. Does anyone know the answer? Let's see. Tampa
- 38:46Speaker 1: Bay Rays fan Roscoe the Parrot from Althea. Yeah, David
- 38:51Speaker 1: in Winter Park, Florida. Rest in peace. Robin Yount, guest
- 38:53Speaker 1: by Mr. Irrigation. Kim Schlittler from JT the Wingman. I
- 38:58Speaker 1: said it right. Fred McGriff from Dat Dude. What's your answer, Lorraine?
- 39:01Speaker 1: It's not whoever. Who do you think it is? I
- 39:05Speaker 1: think it's Tiffany Haddish. It's Joe Garagiola, broadcasting legend.
- 39:17Speaker 3: All right, here we go.
- 39:17Speaker 1: Third degree Koopaloop. I don't know what that was. We
- 39:20Speaker 1: can't rip. It's her birthday, so she can F up
- 39:23Speaker 1: as much as she wants. My old one's gone, so
- 39:25Speaker 1: I got the older one. All right, Ben. Stop me
- 39:27Speaker 1: if you've heard this before.
- 39:29Speaker 7: But somebody is on pace to break Calvin Johnson's record
- 39:32Speaker 7: for receiving.
- 39:32Speaker 1: Yards in a season. Yes, every year this happens. Absolutely, yes.
- 39:35Speaker 7: But this time Jackson Smith and Jigba is on pace
- 39:37Speaker 7: to break it in 16 games, like Calvin Johnson said it.
- 39:40Speaker 1: Do you think he'll do it? No, I always bet
- 39:42Speaker 1: against that happening because you have injury, you have underperformance.
- 39:46Speaker 1: You have to play at a truly elite level the
- 39:49Speaker 1: entire season. You only have, like, one bad game, and
- 39:52Speaker 1: he's not going to do it. So forget about that.
- 39:55Speaker 1: Even as good and magical as he is.
- 39:57Speaker 8: Next!
- 39:58Speaker 7: So Aaron Rodgers thinks that the NFL should kind of
- 40:01Speaker 7: expand their, you know, overseas foreign games thing. Instead of
- 40:05Speaker 7: spreading it out over the season, they think that all
- 40:07Speaker 7: 32 teams should do one-week games.
- 40:09Speaker 1: What do you think about that? Well, he mentioned this.
- 40:12Speaker 1: He said, I talked about this yesterday, and it's stupid.
- 40:16Speaker 1: It's a dumb idea. He said they're going to give
- 40:17Speaker 1: him an extra bye and all that stuff. The rest
- 40:20Speaker 1: of the world doesn't care about the NFL like we do,
- 40:23Speaker 1: and it's going to take 30 years for that to happen.
- 40:25Speaker 1: Good luck.
- 40:26Speaker 3: Next!
- 40:27Speaker 7: The Oklahoma City Thunder lost two players for the season
- 40:29Speaker 7: against your Clippers.
- 40:31Speaker 1: Yes, I saw that. Is it time for them to panic? Yes.
- 40:34Speaker 1: In fact, the rumor is they're trying to convince Russell
- 40:37Speaker 1: Westbrook to come out and retire. Yes. That, Coop, is
- 40:40Speaker 1: the definition of panic. How did we do? We passed
- 40:43Speaker 1: this edition. Winner, winner, winner.
- 40:46Speaker 3: Chicken dinner.
