  Speaker 1: in the beginning of the NFL season. Happened last night.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: We stayed up all night. We lost track of time.

• 0:23
  Speaker 1: of the NFL season. As Seattle... Getting a gift yet again.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: Lucky rabbit's foot working out for the Seahawks here. What happened, though,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: to the Patriots quarterback, Drake May, or as we're calling
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: him now, Drek May, in the season opener? Final three
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: New England possessions. He turned the ball over with interceptions. Also,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: give me a phrase to describe wide receiver Romeo Dobbs'
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: debut with the Patriots. It was very forgettable. And are
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks in good hands with backup quarterback Drew Locke,
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: who replaced the injured Sam Darnold? We'll discuss all of that.
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: Was this a eureka moment for Drew Locke? All of
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: that and more right now as we divide and rule
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: the audio waves on the podcast. It's hour number one.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: An unpatriotic beginning to the NFL season. Welcome in the
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: beginning of another night of the Ben Maller Show.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: We are in the air everywhere with fresh thoughts as
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: we change with the times, because the times keep on changing.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Coast to coast, border to border, and beyond, on The Vast.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: And funkily powerful microphones of FSR emanating live from the off,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: the kickoff. The Fox Sports Radio studios hanging out here
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: somewhere far, far away in the. Twilight Zone of the
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: world-famous Fox Sports Radio Studios, where we are guaranteed human.
• 2:06

• 2:39
  Speaker 1: So our lead this hour. Don't bury the lead, my man!
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I think you know where the lead is. There's only
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: one thing we've been waiting for months and months and months.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: It keeps the lights on around here. What is it
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that keeps the lights on around here? Well, that would
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: be the National Football League. And it was a Humpty Dance,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: the traditional Wednesday opener, unless there's nothing traditional about a
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: Wednesday opener. But they played it. They started it because
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: they had this Fugazi game in. Melbourne, Australia, so they
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: had to accommodate the good people of Melbourne. So instead
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: of starting on Thursday, which is normally what happens now,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: we had the Wednesday kickoff. But the curtain did go
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: up on the 2026 NFL regular season, a rematch. of
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl 60, which wasn't very good, and this game
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: wasn't very good. So Patriots and Seahawks, they get together.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: Not good football. The end of the game was fine,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: but the balance of the game, which is like three
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: hours and whatever, not very good. Not very good. Oh,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: you're not supposed to say that, Maller. You're supposed to
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: drink the NFL Kool-Aid.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Okay, fine.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Whatever you want. Well, it was a hump day special there,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: so I assume you watched or heard it on some
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: kind of transistor radio, but perhaps not. Perhaps not. So
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: the backup quarterback, the backup quarterback, Drew Locke. Lock it in.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Drew Locke, a couple of late scoring drives, and the
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks, Getting a lot of help from the 12th man,
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: not the fans, that would be Drake May, who should
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: be getting a 12 jersey and be part of the
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: pregame festivities in years to come. They should bring Drake
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: May to Seattle and have him do that little thing
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: that Richard Sherman was doing before the game. So Drake
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: May had three interceptions in the fourth quarter, which I'm
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: told is not good. Now, I didn't play in the NFL,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: but I'm told that's not good. And that allowed Seattle
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: to get over the hump on hump day. And without
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Sam Darnold, that's not really much of a loss. But anyway, listen,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: so Seattle came back. They win the game 13-10. The
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: better story, though, is in... The losing locker room, Mike Vrabel,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: when he's not playing footsie with NFL insiders. He's coaching
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: the Patriots. Here is Mike Vrabel commenting on his quarterback
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: who had a three interception night. Here's Coach Vrabel. Take
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: a listen. It's just a long season.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean? Like, we're going to hold
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: our head up high and we have nothing but the
• 5:23
  Speaker 4: Upmost confidence in him and everybody on this football team,
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: and he's going to make a lot of plays for us.
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, you can't throw three interceptions. Drake knows that. Oh,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: they said Drake. There you go, Drake.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: We put ourselves in some long yardage situations on the one.
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: That would probably force, and I think the guy made
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: a great play on the last one.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: Well, it's going to be a long season if he
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: keeps playing like that. It's going to get people fired,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: Drake May. Holy crap. My God. All right, so that
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: is a good jumping-off point. The better story is obviously
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: in the losing locker room. That's where the story is.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: The Patriots, this is an embarrassing day for the New
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: England Patriots franchise.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: The game was right there. You gave the game away.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: You just gave the game away, and that's on you.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: Seattle didn't deserve this win, and that seems to happen
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: a lot to that team. Have you noticed? Like, something's
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: going on there. I mean, some kind of. Faustian bargain,
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: the Seattle Seahawks. Anyways, good jumping off point. Let us
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: discuss the question, what happened to Patriots quarterback Drake May
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: here in the lid lifter on the NFL season? So
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: I've got Mater D, Spinach, and Fuzzy. And we'll combine
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: all of these things together, and we are going to
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: grab some supper and work out the kinks, which is
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: what Drake May needs to do. So, A, listen, Drake
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: May was, I determined as I was watching the game,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: and I didn't know this prior to the game, but
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: he was administered an IV drip. Did you know that? Yeah,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I saw it in a cartoon bubble in my head.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: So Drake May was administered an IV drip, and it
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: contained a mixture of saline and suck. And I guess
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: they left the saline out, so it was just suck,
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: an IV drip of suck for Drake May. And in
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: a flash... Drake May went from the 2025 MVP runner-up
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: to the football equivalent of tossing cookies as you sit
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: on the porcelain pony, if you know what I mean.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: My God. That was disgusting. Absolutely disgusting. We have some
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: more audio. Here's Drake May pointing out that what he
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: did is a felony. Take a listen.
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think we had the game under control. You know,
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: I thought we had a good... to try to start
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: chipping away and be patient. And, yeah, I lost patience
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: and it costed us. I think it just, you know,
• 7:54
  Speaker 5: decisions that cost us the game, you know.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: On my part and my end.
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: And, you know, I vowed to myself to be better
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: and realize it's, you know, it's a long season, but
• 8:02
  Speaker 5: at the same time, you can't have those. You can't
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: have those. And it's unacceptable. And I know that it'll
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: get you back to work because, you know, that wasn't,
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: you know, how I play football and how I want
• 8:11
  Speaker 5: to represent, you know, my game and, you know, playing
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: quarterback for the Patriots.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: So Drake, in the middle of that, he's like, all right,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: what cliches can I sew together? And let me get
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: my sewing machine out. Let me put the cliches together.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: And here we go. So he did get an upgrade, though.
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: That's nice when you get an upgrade. You travel. Patriots
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: are on the road. He got an upgrade there. He
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: moved from coach to first class, and then they moved
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: him all the way up to the cockpit. And he said, boy,
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: I'm in the cockpit. This is great. He said, well, yeah,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: it's actually not a plane. It's the Vomit Comet. And
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: he rode the Vomit Comet straight into Puget Sound. Kaboom!
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: So the Seahawks offense produced, if my math is correct here,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: three points outside of Drake May's tax-deductible charitable donation from
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: his foundation. So the Patriots, on that final possession for
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: New England, they had a tie in the back. They
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: were in chip shot field goal range. At worst, you
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: go to overtime. And Drake May marked it return to
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: sender at the very end there. The game was in
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: his hands. And he said, let me go over to
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: that Walmart Express here. I'm going to hand deliver the
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: game to the people of Seattle. So I'm going to
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: do that. And he coughed up a hairball when the
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Patriots needed him to purr. And he chose not to
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: purr here. So really what he did, he did some cosplay.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: He was playing the Mater D. Drake May was playing
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: the Mater D here of interceptions at the Pike Place Market,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: the famous tourist trap there in Seattle. And he simply
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: tapped out. Good afternoon, good evening, and good night. A
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: passer rating in the 50s. And the Patriots just terrible, terrible, not, drives,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: three interceptions, one field goal, one touchdown. Everything else was
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: a punt for the Patriots. Page two, outside of Drake May,
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: give me a phrase. Give me a phrase to describe
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: the wide receiver Romeo Dobbs' debut with the Patriots. Because
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: this was a big story here, Romeo Dobbs and his
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: performance here. So the phrase I will use, it's actually,
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: I'm going to use a name. I'm going to use
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: a name. It's a musician, Jerry Lee Lewis. That's the
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: name I'm going to use. Dobbs wrote a parody song
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: of Jerry Lee Lewis's, you know, that famous Goodness Gracious,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: Great Balls of Fire. And his spin on it, and
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: it is original because you normally don't want this kind
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: of thing in your first performance with a new employer.
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: So he sang a parody song, Romeo Dobbs, Goodness Gracious,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Great Balls of Suck. And that was his version. And
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I believe the family of Jerry Lee Lewis is demanding royalties,
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I think. So New England, I read, remember this offseason,
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: we talked about it, $ 39 million guaranteed for Romeo Dobbs.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: $ 39 million guaranteed. And he opened up his Patriots career
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: here in prime time like a guy that won a
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: contract in a radio giveaway. Caller number 17. You're going
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: to win a chance to play wide receiver for the
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: New England Patriots. So what a name, right?
• 11:30
  Speaker 6: Romeo.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: What a great name, Romeo. Romeo Dobbs. Patriots fans wanted
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: Romeo and Juliet. Instead, they've got Romeo and drop it
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: is what they got. So you only get one chance,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I'm told, to make a first impression. And Romeo Dobbs
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: showed up there. First impression in a real game with
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the Patriots. And he had spinach in his teeth. He
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: had B.O., and his fly was down. Other than that,
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: everything was good. Everything was good. So with A.J. Brown
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: dinged up, more on that later, Brown knocked out of
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the game, and he did not return. And the second
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: half there did not do much. A.J. Brown, when he
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: was out there, it was time for Dobbs to step
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: up at the big boy table there for Drake May.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: And what did Dobbs do instead? He decided to curl
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: into the fetal position. and take a nap, and it
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: was a good nap. He felt pretty good after that. Now,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: his play sucked, but he was not a security blanket.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: If anything, Romeo Dobbs was an electric blanket that was
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: tossed into a bathtub, which I don't recommend. That's not
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: a good thing. So he was targeted three times. That's it,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: three times, and Dobbs had zero catches. He had as
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: many as Mike the Leprechaun and Hollering James. Zero. Zippo.
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: And then to make it even more embarrassing, he's got
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: that that extra large pad on the helmet, which just
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: makes you stand out like it's just I there were
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: people who say, well, it's safer and all that, but
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: it just makes you look so terrible. It's just so bad.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: And especially when you play like that, you're like, oh,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: my God, it's like a throbbing, swollen thumb. And you
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: just stand out your eyes. I don't know if you
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: watch football like me. There's a couple of guys on
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: the Patriots that have it. And you see these teams
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: around the league that have the puffy helmet. And I
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: gravitate towards those people because it's like what doesn't belong. Well,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: the person with the extra padding thing on the helmet
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: doesn't belong. And then Dobbs in this game, he stands out.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: So you're gravitating your eyes to see the guy with
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: the funny hat on the clown costume. And then he
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: decided to open up the Candyman concession, which was kind
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: of nice to do that. The Candyman concession stand. And unfortunately,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: they didn't have any Snickers. They didn't have any. Three Musketeers.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: There were no M & Ms, no Reese's Pieces. They
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: only had Butterfingers. That's it. The Candyman concession stand. And
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: so dropped pass by Dobbs. There was an interception where
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: he didn't fight for the ball. He could have knocked
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: the ball conceivably away. It was just horrific. All right.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: Last word to the Seattle side of things. So there's
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: already a pet peeve here. We're one game into the
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: NFL season. So the Seahawks lost starting quarterback Sam Darnold
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: after the first drive of the night. Oh, my aching hip. Oh,
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: my hip. Oh, my God. So the backup, Drew Locke,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: came in. And seeing all this nonsense from the establishment
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: football media that Drew Locke was the hero and If
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: you do believe the NFL media elites, that is how
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: that played out. Now, Mike McDonald had a farm EIEIO.
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: And then on that farm, he said initial tests showed
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: that Sam Darnold did not break a bone. He said
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: that was positive news. There'll be some more tests, we understand,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: for EIEIO. Sam Darnold, so they'll spend some money on that.
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: The story, though, is about the backup and the way
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: this is getting covered. So the question, are the Seahawks
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: in good hands if Darnold is out with Drew Locke
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: replacing Sam Darnold? Are they in good hands? So let's
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: call a spade a spade. This is not an All-State commercial.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: We would not exactly say anyone here at the quarterback
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: position is is in good hands. Seattle wasn't in good
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: hands with Sam Darnold. Now, you can lie to yourself
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and tell you that they're really in great shape when
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Darnold plays. That would be a lie. And if you
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: want to lie to yourself, feel free. I'm not going
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: to stop you. But going from Sam Darnold to Drew Locke,
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: it is obviously not an upgrade. I will be fair.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: It is not an upgrade. I would argue it is
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: not a downgrade. This is a tick-tock dance routine. It
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: is a sideways shuffle. The sideways shuffle. That's what this
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: is going from Sam Darnold to Drew Locke. Darnold, while
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: he is not at the top, they're certainly not elite. Neither,
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: of course, is Drew Locke. Darnold to Locke is the
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: NFL equivalent of checking out of your roach-infested Motel 6
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: hotel on the wrong side of the tracks and going
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: to Sodom and Gomorrah and checking into the Super 8
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: Motel and then bragging to all your friends about the upgrade.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: I don't know that I would brag about that, so
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: The narrative of a heroic Drew Locke comeback story. To
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: that I say, talk to the hand. I just talk
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: to the hand. Drew Locke looked completely out of sync
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: the first four drives. I don't know what he was
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: doing before the game. I don't know. It certainly didn't
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: seem like he was ready to come in there. And
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: they all ended up on punts. For those of you
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: a little slow, that was a drive one punt. Drive two, punt.
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Drive three, punt. How about drive four?
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: Punt.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Okay. So the real reason Seattle won this game, Seattle
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: won because of the fuzzy. The lucky fuzzy dice. And somehow, someway,
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: every single red light turned green. Yet again. Yet again.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: And Drake May, Drake May had a name change. He
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: went down to the courthouse and had his name changed.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: He now identifies as Drek May because he just that
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: was Drek what he did was Drek when it truly
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: mattered now as far as Benny versus the penny which
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: is now back on radio as you heard yesterday we
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: took we took the Patriots minus or plus the three
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: so we didn't lose the bet we didn't win the
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: bet it's a push so we got our money back
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: which we hate but that's what happens if only we
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: had gotten the three and a half we would have
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: won the bet but the Point spread at the time
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: on DraftKings that we did it was three. So therefore,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: it was a push. And we will have later on
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: the big Thursday night Benny versus the Penny pick, the
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: Rams and the 49ers from Melbourne, Australia. So the Rams
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: are going to be on vapors by the time that
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: game begins because, well, maybe they won't be. We'll find out.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: As we pointed out, the travel thing, as they flew
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: on a plane where everyone had their own bed on
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: the plane. I've never been on a plane like that.
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: I usually just fly domestic, and I've never been on
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: one of those sleeper planes. The Rams, I don't know
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: if you know this, they got a lot of money,
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: so they were all just sitting there sleeping for 10
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: hours and then woke up and then probably went back
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: to sleep for another few hours, and then that was that.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: If you would like to be part, what do you
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: think about the beginning of the NFL season? As we
• 18:47

• 19:28
  Speaker 1: bit here. You talk a little bit there. You talk everywhere.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: So many people are convinced, many people are convinced that
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: the Seahawks have proven themselves to be clearly the better
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: team here against the Patriots and it's a huge mismatch
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and all that stuff. Well, there's something that people... are missing.
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: There's a jigsaw puzzle piece that many people are missing
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: when it comes to that. We'll get to it. And also,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: a damning note on Drek May. We'll go there as well.

• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Are you a vegan again?
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: I now am.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: You are? Okay. This is the part where I would
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: give out your social media, but I don't remember it,
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: so I can't. You want to give it out? You
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: know what's funny is I don't even have social media
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: right now. Oh, you don't? Okay, then I don't need
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: to give it out. My wife doesn't do social media.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: It's very odd. It's a weird thing to live in
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: that world without social media. It's kind of weird right now. Yeah,
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: that is. I give you credit. Thank you. I have
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: to have it for work. I don't know that I
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: would use it much if I didn't have the job.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: Probably wouldn't, but I have the job, so I feel
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: like I have to have it. Coop is back. You
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: can say hello to Coop at abroncofan. That's abroncofan, and
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: your comments can and will be used against you in
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: the court of the Malheur Militia. Alf the Alien Alpiner
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: writes in, He says, Ben, by the sound of it,
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: I was fortunate to have been asleep during last night's game.
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: All I can say as a Patriots fan is F Poppy,
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: F you, he says, and F the penny. The curse
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: of the Ben Bino is alive and well, he points out. Well,
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: it wasn't a loss. And then he says, hashtag vomit comet.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Charlie from Wisconsin writes, and he says, that was a
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: bad monologue. He says, bad monologue, Maller. I'm giving it
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: an F overall. You seriously underrated the dark side defense.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: I'd argue that they have a top five defense all time. Oh,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: my God, Charlie. Stay off the crack, Charlie. Get off
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: the crack. You're a young guy. What are you doing, dude?
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: He says, because of that, they'll finish first, while the
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Rams will finish third in the division. Charlie, you should
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: not be on social media when you're intoxicated and high.
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: That's a bad job by you, Charlie. I'm not impressed
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: with the Seattle Seahawks. That was a giveaway situation. You
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: understand most games are lost, not won. That is the
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: definition of a game being lost by the New England
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Patriots and Drake May, who clearly is lacking the clutch
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: gene based on how he handled the final part of
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: that game where he literally defecated on NBC. There'll be
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: an FCC violation for the people over there at NBC.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: My God. King Rory writes and says, at first I
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: thought I was going to miss Romeo Dobbs, but after
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: the performance there, I'm glad we, meaning the Packers, King
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: Rory's in Wisconsin, did not re-sign his sorry ass. I
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: think we'll be just fine, if not better, without him. Yeah,
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: I would not be too upset that Romeo Dobbs is
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: not on your football team. I would not be too
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: offended by that. I would think that that is okay.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: That is an okay thing. And we'll just leave that
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: right there. My goodness. My boy, was he terrible and
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: either wasn't getting open or they decided they being the
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: team from. New England to not throw him the ball,
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: not target him, the whole thing. It was brutal. Absolutely brutal.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: All right. Let's take some calls here. It is a
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: call-in show. We have some more comments as well. And
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: let's see here. Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Well, he is
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: cashing a golden ticket. So let's go to him right now.
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: And we sail out to Hollering James in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Not wasting any time. Wasting no time. I didn't poop.
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: Almost tried to cheat me out of my golden ticket.
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: Now everyone's trying to cheat me. I had a chiropractor
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: who cheated me, who cited him as American family in
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: all states because he thought he was going to get
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: more money because he claimed $ 25, 000 and didn't even have
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: a wife.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: James, James, James, are you playing the victim card from
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the deck? I feel like you're playing
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: the victim card. Why are you doing that? Don't play.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: Nobody wants to hear that. Come on. Knock that off.
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: All right. Shame on you.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: This is the most important thing here, the first call
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: of the show. I feel like you're going to sabotage
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: the show that we're not going to have a good show.
• 26:15
  Speaker 3: I'm not sabotaging nothing.
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: But I hate being cheated. All right. Well, we were
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: talking about the big NFL game on Wednesday night. Did
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: you watch the game?
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: Did I watch the game? Of course I watched the game.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: And in Seattle, I'm surprised they didn't cheat.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Well, how do we know they didn't cheat?
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Well, they cheated last year.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: Well, that's right, the two-point conversion. Mike Tirico pointed that
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: out on the broadcast. I was happy that Mike, he
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: implied they cheated.
• 26:44
  Speaker 5: What?
• 26:45
  Speaker 3: I think Michigan cheated, too. I think Michigan cheated Michigan State.
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: Well, that was, no, they didn't cheat Michigan State. It
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: was Western Michigan. It was Western Michigan, James, not Michigan State. But, yeah,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: the Big Ten replay officials did a hell of a
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: job there to help out the Wolverines. They did. James,
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: I think you could have done as well, James, as
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: Romeo Dobbs. I believe that you would have done as
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: well as Romeo Dobbs. And after the game, did you
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: see what Romeo Dobbs had to say? No, you did not.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: The man with the funny hat, wide receiver Romeo Dobbs,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: who had a big drop in the fourth quarter and
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: did not have a catch, but with the score tied
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: at 10 in the fourth quarter, Dobbs, Right there, as
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: May dropped back to pass, and he dropped a pass
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: from May, and it would have given the Patriots a
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: key first down, and he screwed that up. And then afterwards,
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: when asked about his performance, Romeo Dobbs, did he A, say,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: I wasn't that bad? B, no comment? Or C, I
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: wasn't locked in? Well, the answer would be C. He said, quote,
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: I wasn't locked in enough. He said, that's all video
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: speaks for itself. And like I said, I'll be better.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Why can't every player, James, say before the game, I'll
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: be better before the game? That way they don't have
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: to say it after the game. How about that? If
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: I was the coach of an NFL team, I'd get
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: every team huddled up. I'd say, all right, boys, we're
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: going to be better today. Say it with me now.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: We are going to be better today. And then you
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: don't have to say it after the game. How about that, James?
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: Because if Coop thought I'd be better, he let me
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: out when I had my golden ticket, and he wouldn't
• 28:22
  Speaker 3: let me take it.
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Coop wasn't here. He doesn't know you have a golden ticket.
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: He wasn't here yesterday. So how would he know you
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: have a golden ticket? He didn't listen to the show.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: And I excuse him for that. But Coop, you better
• 28:32
  Speaker 3: wise up. I'm telling you, there'll be fines and suspensions.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: You're an idiot. All right. Are you afraid, Coop? All right.
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: We love you, James. All right. Hang up. You're on
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: way too much. Get out of here. I'm sure you'll
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: call right back. So that's usually what happens. Ferg Dog
• 28:54

  Speaker 7: No, I was on a side street.

  Speaker 7: I was about ten minutes away.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: So you're about 10 minutes away from work.

  Speaker 7: Yeah, I get on the freeway over in Studio City.
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: Okay, Studio City.
• 30:04
  Speaker 7: And then I'm driving down the road. I'm singing Britney
• 30:07
  Speaker 7: Spears on Pandora.
• 30:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sure.
• 30:08
  Speaker 7: And then all of a sudden, the biggest cockroach I've
• 30:11
  Speaker 7: seen in my life.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: Have you seen a lot of cockroaches?
• 30:15
  Speaker 7: It's right past my face and lands on my dashboard.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 30:18
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 30:19
  Speaker 7: And then I'm like, oh, my God. Oh, my God.
• 30:21
  Speaker 7: And then he flies back across my face over to
• 30:23
  Speaker 7: the door. And I think he's about to climb out.
• 30:25
  Speaker 7: And I'm like, roll down your window quickly, even farther.
• 30:27
  Speaker 7: Because it was only like halfway down, you know, like half.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I understand. I was just cocked.
• 30:31
  Speaker 7: It wasn't ready to shoot.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sure. So then I pulled over.
• 30:35
  Speaker 7: I was like, I can't get on the freeway because
• 30:37
  Speaker 7: if he crawls out, I'm going to crash.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: There's no way I won't. It's very traumatic to have
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: a cockroach in your car. And so you. And I'm
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: a girl.
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: I keep lots of things in my car.

• 30:55
  Speaker 2: I hate cockroaches.

  Speaker 7: I cannot drive.
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: That car now. All right. What are you going to
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: do with it?
• 31:02
  Speaker 7: Burn it.
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: You're going to burn it? Okay. It's the only option.
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: So you were late to work because of a cockroach? Yes. Yes.

  Speaker 3: Okay.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: I got you. I understand. Everything okay? You want to
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: take the night off? It's not okay. You're not okay.

  Speaker 1: Talk it out there. Where did the cockroach hurt you?
• 31:23

  Speaker 2: Okay.

• 31:33
  Speaker 1: It's about a thousand degrees in L.A. right now. Massive
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: heat waves. Hotter in L.A. than Miami. Why do you
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: have your windows down?
• 31:39
  Speaker 7: Because it was, you know, like a good breeze.
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: Does your car not have air conditioning?
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: It does, but I like a nice breeze.
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: It has air conditioning. But wouldn't you want to use
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: the air conditioning?
• 31:48
  Speaker 7: No, there's no nice breeze. I'm only going to use
• 31:49
  Speaker 7: my air conditioning from now on. Honestly, Ben, I'm not
• 31:51
  Speaker 7: even going outside anymore.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Walking into the studio.
• 31:55
  Speaker 7: When I'm, you know, coming in right now. Yeah. I
• 31:58
  Speaker 7: don't even know what it was. I think it was
• 32:00
  Speaker 7: a massive dragonfly, like, flew into my face, and I
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: had another panic attack and started crying again.
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: I understand.
• 32:06
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: I have PTSD. I understand. I got it. You ever
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: been to Hawaii? They have bigger cockroaches in Hawaii. They
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: fly around really massive. Australia. I bet Australia's got the
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: biggest cockroaches. Go down to Australia. Everything's bigger in Australia.
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: All right. Take it easy, Lorraine. Everything will be okay.
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: Get you a therapy miniature horse. Everything will be all right.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Mark the Walker writes in from Rochester. He says, that's
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: New York, Rochester. A monologue, Mallor, let's not forget, that
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13-year-old cousin. That makes me
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: slightly less uncomfortable than Drake and Romeo's performance. But not
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: to be outdone, Drew Locke entered the fray. Go Bills. Now,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: the Bills monster who changed his name on X to
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: something else, he writes in, never forget the Monday after
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: the first NFL Sunday of the year is the best
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Ben Maller show of the year. So that stays away.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: Gunner.
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: From the Walmart in northern Minnesota writes in, says great
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: opening monologue. Both these teams, the Seahawks and Patriots, are terrible.
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: Cannot wait for my Panthers to go 13-4 this season
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: and a Super Bowl. So everyone's sauced up here. We've
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: determined everyone is sauced up. Trucker Joe checks in. He
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: says he's doing it live out there in Vegas with
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: the wifey. We'll enjoy lost wages Nevada. That's a nice
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: place to hang out. They got big air conditioners. Double
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: O Mexican is up late with us. He says 9.6
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: on the Mallard monologue. Are you sure Romeo Dobbs isn't
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: the guy who got arrested for impersonating an NFL player? Yeah.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Nostradinus has been playing around with Grok, and he's done
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: me and Looney cheering for the Seahawks. I really don't
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: need to see that. That is, you've got way too
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: much time on your hands. Nostradamus, go out and have
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: lunch with Sasquatch or something. What's wrong with you? Doug
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: writes in from South Korea. He says, how long until A.J.
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: Brown starts pouting like a spoiled toddler because he doesn't
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: like his quarterback's play? I don't know. Kermudgeon Wayne writes
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: in from Duluth. He says, didn't take long and you
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: ditched the rundown. I knew it wouldn't last long. He says,
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: lay off the sauce, he points out. Yes, lay off
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: the sauce. Clearly, got to lay off the sauce there. Wayne,
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: if you subscribe to Malheur Plus, you would get that rundown.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: Everyone that has Malheur Plus had... Information on what we
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: were talking about. You chose not to pay for Malheur
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: Plus because you're a tightwad, and that's on you. That
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: is on you. That's a bad job by you. All right.
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: It is the Ben Malheur Show as we are working
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: our way through the overnight here. Time for the Who
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: Am I Game? And this is where we pretend to
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: be somebody else else. We call it the Who Am
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: I Game Show. And here it is. In honor of
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: Drake May and his performance there giving the win to Seattle. Tremendous,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: tremendous gift. I'm really kind to give the first game
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: of the year away. Most people would not want to
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: do that, and he did. I am the last quarterback
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: before Drake May to throw a pick down by three
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: with less than a minute left inside of the 20-yard line.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: which is exactly what Drake May did here. I'm the
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: last quarterback prior to Drake May to throw an interception
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: down by three with less than a minute left inside
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: of the opponent's 20-yard line. Who am I? That is
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: the question, the answer. We'll get to it, and we
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: will do it next.
• 36:10
  Speaker 6: Be sure to catch live editions of the Ben Maller
• 36:12
  Speaker 6: Show weekdays at 2 a.m. Eastern, 11 p.m. Pacific.
• 36:16
  Speaker 2: The Ben Maller Show on Fox Sports Radio.
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: As we roll on and on and on and on
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: through the overnight hours as the Seattle Seahawks get the
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: first game in the bag there. Thanks to a lot
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: of help from the 12th man, Drake May. Get him
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: that number 12 jersey as Patriots quarterback, doing everything he
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: can to make sure Seattle gets that win, and they did.
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: Check is in the mail, Drake. Get one of those
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard under-the-table checks. Way to go. Way to go. Reminder,
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: the 5th Hour Podcast returns tomorrow. This is our Thursday show,
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: and we are efforting a pretty interesting name. Pretty interesting
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: name for the Fifth Hour. I don't want to give
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: it any away. We'll tell you more. We lock everything
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: up there, but that'll be coming up on the Friday edition.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: We'll have new episodes all weekend long of the Fifth
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: Hour podcast. Back to it. All right, back to it
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: we go. And excited to have you hanging out with
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: us and time to pay off. The Who Am I
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: game in honor of Drek May, who really left the
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: Drek out on the field there in the fourth quarter.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Final three pitchers drives. Interception, interception, interception. Oh, you're so mean, Maller.
• 37:41
  Speaker 1: I know. I should give him a massage. I like
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: that nickname, by the way. You like that? You think
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: that'll stick there? Drake, not Drake May, it's Drek May.
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: I hope it does. I like it. Okay, let's go
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: with that. Drek May. All right, so here it is.
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: That's Koopa Loop, of course. I am the last NFL
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: quarterback prior to Drek May to throw a pick down
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: by three with less than a minute left inside of
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: the opponent's 20-yard line. Who am I? Keep in mind,
• 38:11
  Speaker 1: this does not happen very often. You got to be
• 38:15
  Speaker 1: a special kind of naughty to do that. You understand
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying here? It's not a... Typical occurrence. Let's see,
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: what do we have here? Charlie is going with Drew
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: Horseface Locke. I don't know that he's got a horseface, Charlie.
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: That's not very nice. I don't know that you should
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: say that. What else do we have? Sam Darnold, guest
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: by Femi, the top Uber Eats driver in.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Minnesota, Twin Cities. Alf the Alien O'Piner says La Cucaracha
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: is the answer. Oh, please don't talk about it. Doc
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: Dan says John Hadle. It's a good-looking man there, Doc Dan. That's...
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: He's got the cul-de-sac going on. What else do we have?
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: Late Night Drug Tester from Parts Unknown says you are
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: golfer Brooke Henderson, who is 31 today. I have no
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: idea who that is, but happy birthday. What else do
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: we have? Let's see here. Russell Wilson on Seattle in
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: the Super Bowl from Freddie. Dat Dude is dating himself.
