- 2:27Speaker 1: Be big addition to ask Ben later this hour. But
- 2:29Speaker 1: we begin with the Malvin Monologue'll throw you a bit
- 2:33Speaker 1: of a curve ball. We're gonna talk about a team
- 2:34Speaker 1: we never talk about. People always say, why don't you
- 2:37Speaker 1: talk about this team? They get no media coverage at all.
- 2:40Speaker 1: The Dallas Cabas We start out in Dallas, your daily
- 2:46Speaker 1: fix of Drama Orama from Jerry's World prepackage delivered right
- 2:52Speaker 1: to your front door. The latest tangent who got on
- 2:56Speaker 1: a soapbox, Well, that would be George Pickens. That's right, Georgeickens,
- 3:00Speaker 1: who has received much criticism for his lackadaisical if you're
- 3:07Speaker 1: being kind, performances the last couple of games for the Cowboys,
- 3:11Speaker 1: Pickens was asked about it, and he didn't really want
- 3:13Speaker 1: to talk about it. I don't know if you heard
- 3:15Speaker 1: what he had to say when he was asked about
- 3:17Speaker 1: his lack of hustle.
- 3:20Speaker 2: Maybe not. He said, quote, I'm kind of more focused on.
- 3:25Speaker 1: And he said the Chargers, honestly. He added, it's starting
- 3:29Speaker 1: to get kind of old. Honestly, So he decided he
- 3:33Speaker 1: wasn't going to talk about it, and then he got
- 3:34Speaker 1: worked up into a ladder and.
- 3:35Speaker 2: Talked about it.
- 3:36Speaker 1: He then added, everybody has a job to do. Some
- 3:40Speaker 1: people's job is to do that. Pickens said, to tear
- 3:45Speaker 1: down character, see how many clicks they can get. And
- 3:49Speaker 1: Pickens then said, I'm just here to play football and
- 3:53Speaker 1: to help the team, and starting to get kind of.
- 3:55Speaker 2: Old, he said close. Quote all right, so.
- 3:59Speaker 1: That is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss
- 4:03Speaker 1: the question for the esteem panel. Cowboys wide receiver George
- 4:08Speaker 1: Pickens says criticism of his effort is starting to get
- 4:11Speaker 1: kind of old. Can you put this into context on
- 4:16Speaker 1: what that means. So I've got Christmas tree, remote control,
- 4:20Speaker 1: and focus group, and we will combine all of these
- 4:26Speaker 1: things together and we are going to roll snake.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Eyes unless we don't.
- 4:31Speaker 1: So, first of all, George Pickens saying that criticism is
- 4:34Speaker 1: starting to get old. You know what's actually older than
- 4:36Speaker 1: that loafing on film during NFL games and then acting
- 4:41Speaker 1: shocked when people call you out on your bull crap. Okay,
- 4:45Speaker 1: it's like, come on, this is not a news story,
- 4:48Speaker 1: Believe it or not, George, I've been doing this since
- 4:51Speaker 1: before the Internet, and people goofed on athletes that didn't
- 4:54Speaker 1: hustle before the internet.
- 4:55Speaker 2: It actually happened. There was rock.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Bottom before social media. This is not ancient history. By
- 5:01Speaker 1: the way, we're not looking at microfilm. It's fresh clips online.
- 5:06Speaker 1: It's still warm. It shows a wide receiver running roots
- 5:11Speaker 1: or routes depending on where you grew up. That looks
- 5:13Speaker 1: like he's literally dragging a Christmas tree behind him, not
- 5:17Speaker 1: just any Christmas tree. Remember that old classic the Vacation
- 5:21Speaker 1: Movies with it was an actor named Chevy Chase and
- 5:23Speaker 1: he went down to the forest and he cut down
- 5:25Speaker 1: the tree and then dragged it like an actual giantry.
- 5:28Speaker 1: That's essentially what George Pickens looks like when he's out
- 5:30Speaker 1: there in the field. Like he went out to the
- 5:32Speaker 1: woods with a chainsaw, he cut down the tree and
- 5:36Speaker 1: then he wrapped it around like they put a string
- 5:39Speaker 1: on it, wrapped it around his body and carried the
- 5:41Speaker 1: tree as he's running routes the mather Dakota Ring. Translation,
- 5:47Speaker 1: George Pickens is not offended by criticism. He's offended by
- 5:53Speaker 1: the a word accountability. George is bug eyed because he's
- 5:59Speaker 1: getting called out for running from the grind. He ran
- 6:03Speaker 1: from the grind and then ducking behind the velvet rope.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And what velvet rope is that the velvet rope of
- 6:11Speaker 1: victim hood, right, victim hood is that is that, that's
- 6:15Speaker 1: where it's at, And so everyone else is the problem.
- 6:19Speaker 2: Everyone else is the problem. The media.
- 6:22Speaker 1: The clickity click that's out there, which is the way
- 6:24Speaker 1: the media works now.
- 6:25Speaker 2: It's based on clicks. So everyone says it's just a clickbait.
- 6:27Speaker 1: Well, yeah, that's what it is, dummy, And if you
- 6:30Speaker 1: keep clicking on it, you're the reason people do that,
- 6:32Speaker 1: it's your fault, so don't be blaming someone else.
- 6:34Speaker 2: But in this case, he's like the internet boogeyman, Buggy mugget,
- 6:38Speaker 2: Muggy Muggy mugget, Muggy buggy man.
- 6:40Speaker 1: That is what he's saying. And so that's an Internet
- 6:43Speaker 1: boiler plate move. Blame the messenger, not the message. You
- 6:47Speaker 1: blame the messenger, not the message. Now, noticed that what
- 6:52Speaker 1: Pickens didn't say. He didn't say the clips were fake.
- 6:56Speaker 1: He didn't say the effort was misunderstood, didn't say it
- 7:00Speaker 1: was ai. He said people are making money off it
- 7:06Speaker 1: is what he said. Well, welcome to twenty twenty five.
- 7:08Speaker 1: Pal Laziness has resale value, and this is a reboot
- 7:14Speaker 1: from his Pittsburgh days, same software, same glitches. And when
- 7:19Speaker 1: you jog and you go have speed, people notice they
- 7:24Speaker 1: talk about it. And when you sulk, they talk louder.
- 7:28Speaker 1: And that's not tearing down character. That's a performance.
- 7:33Speaker 2: Review, is what it is. Right.
- 7:35Speaker 1: So again, you don't need some kind of like a
- 7:38Speaker 1: focus group to figure that out. Just common sense. Now. Secondly,
- 7:43Speaker 1: the Cincinnati we go the latest stylings, and you know
- 7:48Speaker 1: we love our stylings.
- 7:49Speaker 2: The latest stylings of the drama.
- 7:53Speaker 1: That's going on there, not just in Dallas, but these
- 7:55Speaker 1: stylings from Joe Burrow, the Bengals franchise quarterback who continue
- 8:00Speaker 1: use to be peppered with questions every media availability. These
- 8:05Speaker 1: questions are there about his future in Cincinnati. Team sucks,
- 8:08Speaker 1: so he might as well ask questions about that. So
- 8:11Speaker 1: after complaining in recent weeks about not having fun, we're
- 8:17Speaker 1: not having fun. Then went out and the Bengals had
- 8:20Speaker 1: a knuckle sandwich given to them by the Ravens. So
- 8:24Speaker 1: after all that went down, implied he might leave the NFL. Well,
- 8:29Speaker 1: Joe Burrow declared, he said, I'm going to be playing
- 8:32Speaker 1: football for a long time, he said, and he added,
- 8:37Speaker 1: he feels like the outside people are trying to get
- 8:40Speaker 1: Joe Burrow to hang up the cleats and to leave
- 8:44Speaker 1: and all that. As you we have a little taste
- 8:46Speaker 1: of this. Here's Joe Burrow.
- 8:47Speaker 2: In his own words.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Here he's getting peppered with questions about his situation.
- 8:52Speaker 2: And let's take a listen. Let's go to the audio.
- 8:54Speaker 3: Tape in your mind when you're not the quarterback with
- 8:57Speaker 3: Bangles next year.
- 8:58Speaker 2: I could, I couldn't, I can't see.
- 9:01Speaker 1: It didn't get both thought about the possibility of not
- 9:03Speaker 1: being the quarterback here.
- 9:05Speaker 4: During your career?
- 9:06Speaker 2: Or do you think about a lot of things? Oh see,
- 9:11Speaker 2: that's the money quote. So if you didn't hear that.
- 9:13Speaker 1: So Burrow was asked He's like, hey, do you think
- 9:16Speaker 1: about the possibility of not being the Bengals quarterback next season?
- 9:20Speaker 2: And he said I can't see that.
- 9:21Speaker 3: No.
- 9:22Speaker 1: And then when he was asked, do you think about
- 9:24Speaker 1: possibly at any point not playing for the Bengals in
- 9:26Speaker 1: your career playing for another team? He said, you think
- 9:29Speaker 1: about a lot of things.
- 9:30Speaker 2: Close quote. Question.
- 9:33Speaker 1: Should Bengals fans feel encouraged or discouraged by Joe Burrow's
- 9:39Speaker 1: latest comments on his situation? All right, so I would
- 9:43Speaker 1: say think of this like a pot luck dinner. Everyone
- 9:48Speaker 1: shows up thinking there might be something good.
- 9:51Speaker 2: That's probably a lot of bad stuffing. I'm hungry. I'm hungry.
- 9:54Speaker 2: You get there and there's a lot of mystery meat.
- 9:57Speaker 2: And it depends what you school. That's called pot luck.
- 10:02Speaker 1: Sometimes it's good luck, and sometimes it's bad luck, and
- 10:05Speaker 1: sometimes you end up on the toilet all night. On
- 10:08Speaker 1: one hand, though, Joe says he's playing football, he's playing
- 10:14Speaker 1: football for a long time and you can't imagine not
- 10:17Speaker 1: being the Bengals quarterback next season, So that's all positive.
- 10:20Speaker 1: And then on the other hand, he admits that he's
- 10:22Speaker 1: thought about playing for another team someday by saying, you
- 10:25Speaker 1: think about a lot of things. That is what's known
- 10:27Speaker 1: as a double tongued serpent. Double tongued serpent smiling with
- 10:32Speaker 1: one fang out, That's what that is. And Burrow is
- 10:35Speaker 1: talking like the franchise icon. And he's also a free
- 10:40Speaker 1: agent philosopher at the same time, so he's doing both.
- 10:43Speaker 1: He's he's spinning some plates. There Forever Bengal, but I'm
- 10:46Speaker 1: also window shopping, and I'm like, what do I look
- 10:49Speaker 1: like in purple? How would my helmet look if I
- 10:52Speaker 1: had ram horns on it?
- 10:53Speaker 2: How would that go?
- 10:54Speaker 1: Things that make you go hmmm, yeah, So forever windows shopping.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Now, this is not betrayal. It's the l word leverage.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Welcome to the zero sum game of the superstar quarterback. Yeah,
- 11:13Speaker 1: that's right, that's right. It is a zero sum game.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Burrow says he loves competition, don't we all, don't we all?
- 11:20Speaker 1: He also loves control, and this is him holding the
- 11:25Speaker 1: remote control. And if he wants out, he can turn
- 11:28Speaker 1: the volume up, make some noise, and then the Bengals
- 11:32Speaker 1: will be forced to change the channel and he can
- 11:35Speaker 1: go Carson Palmer and get out of there and force
- 11:38Speaker 1: the franchise's hand.
- 11:40Speaker 2: And you can do that. So should the Bengals loyalist panic? No,
- 11:44Speaker 2: you don't panic. Who cares?
- 11:45Speaker 1: Somebody be playing quarterback for the Bengals every year, whether
- 11:48Speaker 1: it's Joe Burrow, some other Jabebroni, some dingle Berry will
- 11:52Speaker 1: come in there, and if he can't find a Dingleberry,
- 11:54Speaker 1: they'll find a jackwagon. And if they can't find a jackwagon,
- 11:57Speaker 1: they'll find a Mama Loop. But someone will be out there.
- 12:00Speaker 1: Should they relax? No, This is Joe Burrow reminding every man,
- 12:05Speaker 1: woman and child, very politely, very calmly, that loyalty is conditional.
- 12:11Speaker 1: You want a franchise quarterback, This is the price of admission.
- 12:15Speaker 1: It's just the way it is. You're going to get in,
- 12:17Speaker 1: you gotta buy a ticket. And so encourage discouraged a
- 12:21Speaker 1: little bit of this, a little bit of that. And
- 12:24Speaker 1: it's kind of like Cincinnati's famous dish, the chili in Cincinnati,
- 12:29Speaker 1: as has been pointed out to me, like justin Boots
- 12:32Speaker 1: on the Ground, Justin and Cincinnati some other listeners over
- 12:34Speaker 1: the years. It just depends on how much you trust
- 12:38Speaker 1: the recipe and over the restaurant. That's really what it's about.
- 12:42Speaker 4: All right.
- 12:42Speaker 1: Final thought to Nashville we go, birthplace of Bill Belichick,
- 12:48Speaker 1: where Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback cam Ward. Cam Ward revealed
- 12:54Speaker 1: this week that he hopes to be involved in the
- 12:57Speaker 1: search for the next head coach this offseason. Cam Ward
- 13:02Speaker 1: told reporters, I want to meet all of them, he said,
- 13:05Speaker 1: every coach who gets the opportunity to come here, meaning
- 13:10Speaker 1: to visit with the Titans. I want to have conversation
- 13:12Speaker 1: throughout the process with them.
- 13:15Speaker 2: I'm going to be here for that whole time. Close quote.
- 13:19Speaker 1: Now Ward later added that the Titans front office has
- 13:22Speaker 1: spoken to him about the coaching search.
- 13:25Speaker 2: So let's get into this the question.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Cam Ward would like a seat at the grown ups
- 13:31Speaker 1: table in the Tennessee Titans coaching search.
- 13:34Speaker 2: Good idea, bad idea.
- 13:38Speaker 1: So it is the arrow is pointing towards bad idea,
- 13:42Speaker 1: as in hard pass. This is a bad idea wrapped
- 13:44Speaker 1: in worse timing. The timing could not be worse if
- 13:48Speaker 1: it was a year ago. You could make a more
- 13:51Speaker 1: compelling argument that cam Ward should have had a role
- 13:55Speaker 1: in this where they hired a coach before the draft,
- 13:57Speaker 1: so it wouldn't matter the coaches don't wait until after
- 14:00Speaker 1: the draft. But the point is, prior to cam Ward
- 14:03Speaker 1: getting to the NFL, the perception of cam Ward was
- 14:06Speaker 1: he was going to be pretty good. We have now
- 14:09Speaker 1: seen cam Ward play football. As we go back, you
- 14:12Speaker 1: don't need a focus group here. This is the NFL.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Rule number one.
- 14:20Speaker 1: Rule Number one is separation of powers. The players play,
- 14:24Speaker 1: the front office is higher.
- 14:26Speaker 2: And when you.
- 14:27Speaker 1: Blur that line, that thin line, you get chaos with
- 14:33Speaker 1: a capital C. Mutiny on the Titans bounty and the
- 14:38Speaker 1: locker room smells that like a burned cast role. If
- 14:42Speaker 1: they figure out that the quarterback hand pick the coach,
- 14:47Speaker 1: the coach is the you know, the quarterback is the
- 14:49Speaker 1: coach is pat or vice versa, it becomes problematic. Now,
- 14:53Speaker 1: cam Ward was the top pick in the draft. He
- 14:56Speaker 1: got the golden ticked, he got the golden tick, he
- 15:00Speaker 1: got the shiny scratch off ticket. Instead, though of performing
- 15:04Speaker 1: to that level, he has been more like like a
- 15:10Speaker 1: champagne that doesn't pop. There's been no pop there. Ranked
- 15:14Speaker 1: thirty sixth among NFL quarterbacks. The only quarterback that sucks
- 15:18Speaker 1: more am unqualified quarterbacks J. J. McCarthy, who, even though
- 15:22Speaker 1: he plays for the Purple People Eaters, is not eating
- 15:25Speaker 1: anything other than mostly bad performances. And so you're hanging
- 15:31Speaker 1: about as low as you can hang in the basement.
- 15:34Speaker 1: And that's not influence worthy football as a rule of thumb.
- 15:39Speaker 1: And this is just my position because it's the Ben
- 15:43Speaker 1: Maler Show, So it's my position. I have long said,
- 15:47Speaker 1: even if it was Patrick Mahomes or Josh Allen quarterbacks
- 15:52Speaker 1: of stature Lamar Jackson, I would not let my quarterback
- 15:57Speaker 1: hire the coach. I would not let my quarterback decide
- 15:59Speaker 1: who the coach. You're not in the NBA, you're in
- 16:02Speaker 1: the NFL. And so cam Ward, I would say, pump
- 16:05Speaker 1: the breaks. Now, you got to pump those breaks. And yeah,
- 16:10Speaker 1: I get the personalities there. We like the personality. It
- 16:12Speaker 1: pops Danny and Nashville. He likes it too big personality.
- 16:18Speaker 1: I though, we ask quote is an all time quote
- 16:23Speaker 1: cam Ward talking about the Titans, and we asked, and
- 16:25Speaker 1: that was only like week four. Unfortunately, right now that's
- 16:29Speaker 1: also the scouting report on cam Ward.
- 16:32Speaker 2: It's he asked, and whoever takes the Titans job.
- 16:35Speaker 1: There are some rumors in the last couple of weeks
- 16:37Speaker 1: about Mike McCarthy, which would be great news for the
- 16:40Speaker 1: restaurants there in Nashville if they hire Mike McCarthy. And
- 16:44Speaker 1: whoever it is again, maybe it is Mike McCarthy, a
- 16:47Speaker 1: mystery coach.
- 16:48Speaker 2: All that stuff is not going to.
- 16:50Speaker 1: Go there to consult cam Ward. No, that would be
- 16:55Speaker 1: a rescue and recovery mission. Rescue mission. You bring your
- 17:01Speaker 1: jumper cables, check that box, you bring your duct tape.
- 17:04Speaker 2: And a prayer.
- 17:06Speaker 1: Cam's job, show a spark before the light goes out.
- 17:10Speaker 1: All right, we have Mallardly third degree right now, let's
- 17:13Speaker 1: hit that button right now. Mallarly third degree by demand
- 17:16Speaker 1: time shifted.
- 17:17Speaker 2: Debt to the third degree. Yeah, this is one big vent.
- 17:22Speaker 2: Gets grilled all right?
- 17:24Speaker 4: Cool.
- 17:25Speaker 5: I've been this season seemingly more than other seasons. There
- 17:28Speaker 5: have been a lot of teams that have fallen way
- 17:30Speaker 5: below their high expectations. Which of those teams do you
- 17:33Speaker 5: think has been the biggest disappointment?
- 17:37Speaker 1: Uh, well, I would say that the Baltimore Ravens, who
- 17:40Speaker 1: are looking like they're not going to make the playoffs
- 17:42Speaker 1: in Kansas City. Those are the top two teams. Kansas City.
- 17:45Speaker 1: Everyone'sho or Kansas City. Kansas City can.
- 17:47Speaker 2: And they should be in the playoffs.
- 17:49Speaker 1: It's embarrassing they've fallen this far where they're not going
- 17:51Speaker 1: to make the playoffs. But I to me Baltimore because
- 17:54Speaker 1: Kansas City, a lot of people expected them to have
- 17:56Speaker 1: a fall off because they didn't really improve the roster
- 17:59Speaker 1: and some guys got old there. But Baltimore, this was
- 18:03Speaker 1: still supposed to be their window. And Lamar Jackson miss
- 18:06Speaker 1: his practice all the time. He's not played very well
- 18:09Speaker 1: in these games. So I to me, Baltimore's got to
- 18:12Speaker 1: be high up there along with Kansas City. Neck and
- 18:15Speaker 1: neck as a mono abato if you, and with a
- 18:19Speaker 1: wink and a nod to the Detroit Lions that have
- 18:21Speaker 1: fallen off, they're no longer biting kneecaps.
- 18:23Speaker 5: Next, a Warriors fan leaked an email between himself and
- 18:27Speaker 5: team owner Joe Lacub where Lacomb admitted his frustrations with
- 18:31Speaker 5: the team and cited complications such as coaches desires regarding players. Now,
- 18:36Speaker 5: Steve Kerr was asked about this, and he said it's
- 18:38Speaker 5: not a big deal. Is it a big deal?
- 18:40Speaker 2: Ben, Yeah, I don't think he's that big deal. I
- 18:43Speaker 2: saw this. I didn't I was gonna mention it in a monologue.
- 18:46Speaker 1: I didn't think it was that big a deal. I
- 18:47Speaker 1: think it's kind of cool that Joe Lacob broke back.
- 18:50Speaker 1: He didn't really say much I thought in the email,
- 18:53Speaker 1: but it does show you that he cares and he
- 18:56Speaker 1: is annoyed.
- 18:57Speaker 2: He knows that the product's not good.
- 19:00Speaker 1: The Warrior fans are having problems dealing with the fact
- 19:02Speaker 1: they're just they've fallen off.
- 19:04Speaker 2: Alamedahlu and those guys that love the Warriors. This is
- 19:07Speaker 2: what happens. It happens to all the teams that have
- 19:09Speaker 2: great runs.
- 19:11Speaker 1: When the Lakers went through this, the Celtics when they've
- 19:14Speaker 1: had great teams, the Pistons. You're really good for a while,
- 19:17Speaker 1: and then you hold on to those veteran players and
- 19:19Speaker 1: it's you're not terrible, but you're not a legitimate championship
- 19:24Speaker 1: team and you're stuck in this twilight zone. And obviously
- 19:28Speaker 1: coaches have favorite players. That's not a secret. Steve Kerr
- 19:32Speaker 1: liked certain kind of players, just like whoever.
- 19:35Speaker 2: Your favorite coach does. That's the way it works next.
- 19:37Speaker 5: Adam Silver said on Tuesday that the NBA will make
- 19:40Speaker 5: a decision on expansion in twenty twenty six, and he
- 19:42Speaker 5: specifically mentioned Las Vegas and Seattle, ben do you think
- 19:46Speaker 5: both of those cities will get a team?
- 19:48Speaker 1: So I heard from a little birdie this was several
- 19:52Speaker 1: years back, Coop, that Seattle was definitely getting a team
- 19:56Speaker 1: and the plan was to go to Vegas. That was
- 19:58Speaker 1: in twenty nineteen. It's twenty twenty five. They had Now

- 20:06Speaker 1: because we had the pandemic that delayed things, and then
- 20:10Speaker 1: the television contracts where now they're on Amazon and NBC
- 20:13Speaker 1: and all that.
- 20:14Speaker 2: So that stuff's taken care of.
- 20:16Speaker 1: The problem is, though, you got to cut up that
- 20:20Speaker 1: pie and the slices get a little bit smaller for
- 20:23Speaker 1: the Knickerbockers and the Timberwolves and the Rockets and all that.
- 20:26Speaker 1: But they're going to have two teams, and you got
- 20:29Speaker 1: to bring back the Sonic name. They did it with
- 20:32Speaker 1: the Hornets and Charlotte, bring back the SuperSonics, and have
- 20:36Speaker 1: a gambling name for the team in Vegas, having the
- 20:39Speaker 1: slot machines.
- 20:39Speaker 2: Or something like that, and they're going to lean into
- 20:41Speaker 2: the gambling, and why not Chauncey Phillips led it. He
- 20:44Speaker 2: leaned into the gambling. All right, there it is Mallard
- 20:46Speaker 2: of the third degree. How did we do you pass this?

- 37:28Speaker 2: Gunner.
- 37:28Speaker 5: Gunnar would like to know what's your favorite kind of
- 37:31Speaker 5: French fry.
- 37:34Speaker 1: I like the kind of fries I eat after watching
- 37:37Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers lose to the New Orleans Saints.
- 37:39Speaker 2: Gunner, that's the kind of fries that I like a lot.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Those are really really good.
- 37:44Speaker 1: No, I like curly fries, but they don't give you
- 37:47Speaker 1: enough in the little basket. And like RB's curly fries
- 37:50Speaker 1: are really good. McDonald's fries are solid. I'm a big
- 37:53Speaker 1: fry guy. I love fries. It's hard to f up fries.
- 37:56Speaker 1: I'll even eat soggy fries. I don't enjoy soggy fries,
- 37:59Speaker 1: but I'll eat them cause I love fries.
- 38:00Speaker 2: What about you, Lorena. Oh, it's so.
- 38:02Speaker 11: Hard with the fry because there is so many different varieties.
- 38:06Speaker 11: But I like the kind that kind of a shoe stringy,
- 38:09Speaker 11: but a little fatter than that, and you can leave
- 38:11Speaker 11: them in your steak juice and they soak up nicely.
- 38:14Speaker 2: What about a potato wedge that's too big for you?
- 38:17Speaker 11: It's too fat?
- 38:18Speaker 2: Yeah, you're anti fat? I got it, I got you,
- 38:21Speaker 2: I coopleloop I.
- 38:23Speaker 5: I'm kind of with Loraina. I do like just you know,
- 38:25Speaker 5: the regular.
- 38:27Speaker 2: You know, the but basic with a fry.
- 38:30Speaker 5: Yeah, but I also do enjoy a crinkle cut a lot.
- 38:35Speaker 2: What about the curly? You don't like the curly? What's
- 38:36Speaker 2: wrong with the curly?
- 38:37Speaker 5: It's not being wrong with the curly, it's just not,
- 38:39Speaker 5: you know, not my favorite. I do enjoy curly fries though.
- 38:43Speaker 1: Okay, all right, fair enough, what's next here? It's ask Ben,
- 38:47Speaker 1: Your questions are answers.
- 38:50Speaker 5: This question is just for you, Ben. It is from
- 38:54Speaker 5: Bill on Twitter.
- 38:55Speaker 1: Hi Bill.
- 38:56Speaker 5: He wants to know do you give Christmas gifts to
- 38:58Speaker 5: your non Jewish friends?
- 39:01Speaker 1: Uh?
- 39:02Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I'm.
- 39:05Speaker 1: My problem is I lose track of time. I'm just
- 39:07Speaker 1: so worried about the show. Every day I spend all
- 39:09Speaker 1: my time on that. I forget, like I don't even
- 39:10Speaker 1: know what day it is most.
- 39:11Speaker 2: Of the time.
- 39:13Speaker 1: But yeah, I'll give out stuff to random people. Usually
- 39:16Speaker 1: my wife handles most of that crap, though, but I don't.
- 39:18Speaker 2: Uh yeah, the answer is yes, next, What's next? What
- 39:21Speaker 2: I got?
- 39:22Speaker 5: This question is from Donkey Sausage.
- 39:24Speaker 2: Hide Donkey Hie. Donkey wants to know.
- 39:27Speaker 5: Do you have any allergies?
- 39:30Speaker 2: Uh?
- 39:31Speaker 1: Yeah, I am allergic to penicillin. That's about I think
- 39:36Speaker 1: that's the only one. I thought, like a year ago,
- 39:39Speaker 1: I was allergic to something else, but it turned out
- 39:41Speaker 1: I was not.
- 39:42Speaker 2: I think that's the only one I really have at
- 39:44Speaker 2: this point. Loraina. Any allergies, Loraina?
- 39:46Speaker 11: Well, I don't want anyone to go and put anything
- 39:48Speaker 11: in my food that might harm me. But uh, sometimes
- 39:52Speaker 11: I have allergic reaction to eating bread and I get
- 39:54Speaker 11: a weird rash on the top of my mouth.
- 39:56Speaker 2: Also, you have a gluten analogy. I don't know if
- 39:58Speaker 2: it's a gluten analogy. Red's gluten.
- 40:00Speaker 11: Yeah, but there's other things in bread too that could
- 40:03Speaker 11: cause it.
- 40:04Speaker 2: What else is there?
- 40:05Speaker 11: I don't know, but it doesn't always happen, that's the
- 40:06Speaker 11: weird part. So, like, I can have regular sandwiches, but
- 40:09Speaker 11: sometimes if I have like, like I've had a bagel
- 40:12Speaker 11: before that does it to my mouth. I don't know,
- 40:14Speaker 11: it's weird.
- 40:16Speaker 5: But no medicine. I'm not allergic to medicine that I
- 40:18Speaker 5: know of.
- 40:19Speaker 1: There's gluten and everything though, just about avoid the gluten.
- 40:22Speaker 11: And that's the thing. If it was everything, then I
- 40:24Speaker 11: would wouldn't be able to eat anything.
- 40:27Speaker 5: I wasn't thinking about medication, but since you brought it up,
- 40:30Speaker 5: I am allergic to doxy cycling that's a h a
- 40:37Speaker 5: type of a cyllin that's a you know, but antibiotic
- 40:41Speaker 5: or antibiotic and have to sneeze. Okay uh. And then
- 40:46Speaker 5: also I have a few different nut allergies like macadami nut,
- 40:51Speaker 5: hazel nuts. It's not that bad. I still bless you.
- 40:54Speaker 5: You have a mic.
- 40:55Speaker 2: Thanks for not turning the MinC up. I appreciate that time.
- 40:58Speaker 5: I still eat them. My throw just gets a little scratchy,
- 41:01Speaker 5: but you know they're delicious, so I still do it.
- 41:03Speaker 5: And then leechee that one I cannot eat.
- 41:05Speaker 11: Don't I love a good leechee?
- 41:07Speaker 4: All right?
