- 0:10Speaker 1: of May Talk and Bays Bowl with the New York
- 0:14Speaker 1: Metropolitans and manager Carlos Mendoza has announced that despite Juan
- 0:21Speaker 1: Soto sucking at a time you cannot suck, he passes
- 0:25Speaker 1: the eye test.
- 0:26Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the quote. He passes the eye test. How
- 0:30Speaker 2: does that play with the base of met fans? We'll
- 0:34Speaker 2: discuss that. Also.
- 0:35Speaker 1: How did Tim Anderson go from a batting champ with
- 0:39Speaker 1: the White Sox to getting a pink slip from the
- 0:42Speaker 1: Angels He was fired. Gunner Henderson, the kid from Alabama
- 0:46Speaker 1: playing shortstop for the Oriols, apparently has turned down a
- 0:50Speaker 1: long term extension from Baltimore.
- 0:52Speaker 2: You believe this? Can you believe he would turn that down?
- 0:55Speaker 1: We'll talk about that and more right now as we
- 0:58Speaker 1: make waves and our number three, the not so amazing amazing,
- 1:07Speaker 1: Say what Welcome in the beginning of another hour of
- 1:13Speaker 1: the Ben Malar Show. We are in the air everywhere,
- 1:18Speaker 1: key collaborators, as we are off road, driving coast to coast,
- 1:26Speaker 1: border the border and beyond on the vast and rolickingly
- 1:31Speaker 1: powerful microphones of FSR AM modinating live from the blanket,
- 1:37Speaker 1: the safety blanket that is your Fox Sports Radio Studios,

- 2:09Speaker 1: com the way that tire buying show b So our
- 2:15Speaker 1: lead this hour is from Baseball and I am a sucker.
- 2:19Speaker 2: I am a total sucker for a good story.
- 2:21Speaker 1: And this has all the ingredients, all the ingredients of
- 2:25Speaker 1: good talk radio. You've got big money, big name, and
- 2:31Speaker 1: crap performance.
- 2:33Speaker 2: That's all you need. So our lead this hour is
- 2:36Speaker 2: from Flushing in Queens. It's appropriate.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Well, you talk about a team getting short changed to
- 2:42Speaker 1: here right now, so it is time for our obligatory
- 2:45Speaker 1: Mallard monologue on one Soto. Consider this a wellness check
- 2:49Speaker 1: on one Soto. How are things going for the Mets
- 2:53Speaker 1: right now?
- 2:54Speaker 2: With one Soto?
- 2:57Speaker 1: Don't ask, do not ask, you're not gonna want the answer.
- 3:00Speaker 1: So Juan Soto went hitless again. He failed to get
- 3:03Speaker 1: the ball out of the infield. The Mets did the unthinkable,
- 3:07Speaker 1: the unimaginable. They lost to the Chicago White Sox. Say
- 3:12Speaker 1: it ain't so the lowly White Sox. So after signing
- 3:15Speaker 1: a seven hundred and sixty five million dollar contract, you
- 3:20Speaker 1: talk about rolling out the welcome wagon that was back
- 3:22Speaker 1: in December as a free agent. Juan Soto is batting
- 3:27Speaker 1: close to the Mendoza line. He's hitting two twenty four
- 3:31Speaker 1: this season, has just eight home runs twenty five runs
- 3:34Speaker 1: batted in in fifty five games for the Mets. There's
- 3:39Speaker 1: been a lot of turbulence, a lot of turbulence with
- 3:42Speaker 1: Juan Soto.
- 3:43Speaker 2: As a Met, as you might imagine. So that leads
- 3:46Speaker 2: us to this.
- 3:48Speaker 1: The New York Mets manager Carlos Mendoza, he was asked
- 3:53Speaker 1: about his player not doing very well and lobbing the
- 3:58Speaker 1: bat through the zone, not making much contact, and Carlos
- 4:01Speaker 1: Mendoza expressed confidence. He said he's got faith in Juan Soto,
- 4:07Speaker 1: saying here's the money quote that Juan Soto passes the
- 4:12Speaker 1: eye test. Despite the stats being of somebody that you
- 4:16Speaker 1: signed out of the Korean Baseball League or the Mexican League.
- 4:19Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. The managers like, oh yeah, we're good.
- 4:23Speaker 1: That's the money quote. So let us discuss the question.
- 4:26Speaker 1: New York Metropolitan manager Carlos Mendoza announced that one Soto
- 4:33Speaker 1: quote passes the eye test. That's the quote. So how
- 4:39Speaker 1: does that play with the base? How does that play
- 4:41Speaker 1: with the base. So I've got Mark Twain, Buckeye and
- 4:46Speaker 1: the gatekeeper, and we will combine all of these things
- 4:51Speaker 1: together and we'll be We'll be floating on air. We're
- 4:53Speaker 1: literally floating on air. When you do talk radio, you're
- 4:56Speaker 1: floating on air as the voice goes everywhere. And that's
- 5:00Speaker 1: how it is.
- 5:01Speaker 2: So my first thought on this is that we have
- 5:05Speaker 2: looked at the eye test.
- 5:06Speaker 1: We've examined the eye test, and we've determined that Juan
- 5:09Speaker 1: Soto is color blind. At this point, Carlos Mendoza does
- 5:14Speaker 1: not believe the gibberish that he passes the eye test.
- 5:19Speaker 1: If you recall about ten days ago, the Mets manager
- 5:23Speaker 1: Mets manager Carlos Mendoza called out the lack of hustle,
- 5:27Speaker 1: the lack of effort by Juan Soto, And here we
- 5:31Speaker 1: are a few days later, and all of a sudden,
- 5:32Speaker 1: I passes the eye test. Well, we know the color
- 5:36Speaker 1: blind nature. He does see the color green. Other than that,
- 5:38Speaker 1: everything's kind of just there. And you are what your
- 5:43Speaker 1: record says you are. His body of work with the
- 5:46Speaker 1: Mets is ghastly. It is ghastly. How bad is it?
- 5:50Speaker 1: Juan Soto's batting average is doing the limbo? How low
- 5:55Speaker 1: can you go? He is sixty one points below his
- 5:59Speaker 1: career mark entering the season. The argument on one Soto
- 6:02Speaker 1: was he's full proof no matter what. He might not
- 6:05Speaker 1: play great defense, and maybe he won't hustle, but he'll
- 6:08Speaker 1: always hit. He can get out of bed and he'll
- 6:11Speaker 1: get a base hit or two for you every game.
- 6:13Speaker 1: And he hasn't homerd since May ninth. Today is May
- 6:17Speaker 1: twenty ninth, so he's been twenty days since he hit
- 6:19Speaker 1: home run. That is a span of seventy five played appearances.
- 6:23Speaker 2: Which I'm told is not good. I'm told it's not good.
- 6:26Speaker 2: And but wait, there's more.
- 6:29Speaker 1: He has just seven hits in his last fifty nine
- 6:32Speaker 1: at bats. That is a robust one nineteen batting average.
- 6:38Speaker 1: It's okay, though he passes the old eye test. He's
- 6:41Speaker 1: also driving the struggle bus at this point.
- 6:45Speaker 2: So there you go.
- 6:46Speaker 1: And that's that's where you go with what you go
- 6:49Speaker 1: with the eye test. You say, hey, I believe in
- 6:51Speaker 1: the eye test. When the numbers are ugally with a
- 6:56Speaker 1: capitol of you, you fall back on the eye test.
- 7:00Speaker 1: Who can argue with the eye test. It's your opinion,
- 7:03Speaker 1: it's the eye test. You just look at the baseball
- 7:08Speaker 1: reference page. You say, eh, looks good to me. Yeah,
- 7:11Speaker 1: looks good to me. My eyes say good. Player to
- 7:15Speaker 1: quote Mark Twain, denial ain't just a river in Egypt.
- 7:19Speaker 1: And we know the Mets manager does not believe it.
- 7:21Speaker 1: You want more numbers, how about this with runners in
- 7:24Speaker 1: scoring position, the seven hundred and sixty five million dollar
- 7:28Speaker 1: bust Juan Sota this point, he's a bus batting a
- 7:32Speaker 1: buck thirty, batting one thirty forty six at Tamps, six
- 7:38Speaker 1: hits with one home.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Run and sixteen runs. Bat at him.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Terrible, terrible, terrible turble. Now again, trust your eyes. You
- 7:47Speaker 1: know why I trust blind Emmett blind, I trust him
- 7:50Speaker 1: in could terror blind Scott. They know the eye test
- 7:55Speaker 1: bull crap, they know it. Now speaking a bull crap,
- 7:59Speaker 1: what a story you talk about swimming against the current
- 8:03Speaker 1: in Anaheim the high Speed Sports Wire, the Angels.
- 8:09Speaker 2: Have said Nana na da.
- 8:13Speaker 1: Goodbye. They have said goodbye to shortstop Tim Anderson. Yes,
- 8:19Speaker 1: that is the same Tim Anderson that made sports talk
- 8:22Speaker 1: radio headlines years ago. So Tim Anderson was brought in
- 8:26Speaker 1: on a make good contract and he didn't make good.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Part of a flurry of roster moves by Ron Washington's Halos,
- 8:37Speaker 1: the two time White Sox All Star has been designated
- 8:41Speaker 1: for assignment, a polite way of saying.
- 8:46Speaker 2: He's a fallen Angel. So the question.
- 8:50Speaker 1: How did Tim Anderson go from a batting champ in
- 8:53Speaker 1: the American League.
- 8:55Speaker 2: To getting a nice, big pink slip from the Angels.
- 8:59Speaker 2: And it's only been a couple of years.
- 9:01Speaker 1: And if you look at the resume of Anderson, he
- 9:04Speaker 1: might have to contact express pros. He has been dumped
- 9:08Speaker 1: by the Marlins and the Halos in recent years. Okay, yeah,
- 9:14Speaker 1: And when teams like that that aren't even trying to win,
- 9:18Speaker 1: say ah, we're good, man, we don't need you.
- 9:21Speaker 2: We're good. What more do you need? You've reached bedrock.
- 9:25Speaker 1: You are laying on bedrock now, Tim Anderson is the
- 9:29Speaker 1: first Major League baseball player that I can think of,
- 9:33Speaker 1: at least in modern times. Tim Anderson to have his
- 9:37Speaker 1: career literally knocked out. Remember hearing stories of George Foreman,
- 9:42Speaker 1: who was this undefeated boxer until he took on Muhammad
- 9:46Speaker 1: Ali in what became known as the Rope a Dope
- 9:50Speaker 1: of Muhammad Ali.
- 9:52Speaker 2: Eight rounds, a knockout in.
- 9:55Speaker 1: The rumble in the Jungle, and George Foreman was never
- 10:00Speaker 1: the same. He retired for a number of years. He
- 10:02Speaker 1: didn't come back and fight again years later. He was
- 10:04Speaker 1: never the same though. After the ropidobe situation. For Tim Anderson,
- 10:09Speaker 1: it was the buck Guy beat down, Buck Guy beat down.
- 10:14Speaker 1: On a random night in August of twenty twenty three,
- 10:19Speaker 1: on a random night in Cleveland, Ohio, Jose Ramirez of
- 10:23Speaker 1: the team formerly known as the Indians connect right there
- 10:28Speaker 1: to the moneymaker of Tim Anderson, right to the jaw,
- 10:32Speaker 1: right there wild haymaker at second base, and that set
- 10:37Speaker 1: Tim Anderson on his back. Down gos Anderson, down goes Anderson,
- 10:44Speaker 1: and he's never recovered. He is never recovered from the
- 10:48Speaker 1: Rust Belt Rumble. It hasn't happened. Tim Anderson batting a
- 10:53Speaker 1: putred two twenty three, so he's actually not that far
- 10:57Speaker 1: behind the aforementioned.
- 11:01Speaker 2: Who we told you earlier on here.
- 11:03Speaker 1: Juan Soto with the New York Mets is somehow, some
- 11:08Speaker 1: way batting two twenty four, So that's only one point better.
- 11:11Speaker 1: So if you hit two twenty three for the Angels,
- 11:14Speaker 1: you get let go. If you bat two twenty four
- 11:17Speaker 1: with the Mets, you get a seven hundred and sixty
- 11:19Speaker 1: five million dollar contract.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Makes sense logical?
- 11:23Speaker 1: Uh So, Tim Anderson no home runs twelve doubles total
- 11:28Speaker 1: since the clash on the Kyahoga back in three. And
- 11:32Speaker 1: this is a guy who used to be the definition
- 11:36Speaker 1: of swag.
- 11:37Speaker 2: He was electric.
- 11:39Speaker 1: He was electric as a ballplayer, played with emotion, had
- 11:42Speaker 1: the razzle dazzle, all the excitement. And now he's got
- 11:47Speaker 1: no power. He sucks on defense, he's not that fast,
- 11:51Speaker 1: he doesn't walk. There's nothing that he does that's helpful.
- 11:56Speaker 1: And somewhere, and I'm not sure where this is, somewhere,
- 11:59Speaker 1: Josh donald tipped one over in honor of the karma
- 12:04Speaker 1: gods of baseball. You might remember Tim Anderson got very
- 12:08Speaker 1: upset with Josh Donaldson. Very upset got Josh Donaldson suspended
- 12:14Speaker 1: when Donaldson used the nickname the Tim Anderson and given
- 12:17Speaker 1: himself and that led to his suspension. And now Karma's
- 12:22Speaker 1: come back to bite Tim Anderson in the took Us
- 12:25Speaker 1: Final Fuck to Baltimore We Go where Sports with Coleman
- 12:29Speaker 1: hangs out with Baltimore Royalty on his podcast like Mike
- 12:33Speaker 1: Bordick and Jim Palmer and the Orioles are miserable. There
- 12:38Speaker 1: are whispers I thought this was interesting. The Orioles ownership
- 12:41Speaker 1: group sat down, they had a pow wow with Gunner
- 12:45Speaker 1: Henderson and they made him an offer.
- 12:47Speaker 2: This winter story came out the last couple of days.
- 12:51Speaker 1: They could not come to an agreement that the offer
- 12:54Speaker 1: was made. He decided this is an offer I can
- 12:58Speaker 1: refuse and said no. Oh, so Gunner Henderson, the pride
- 13:02Speaker 1: and joy of Alabama playing shortstop in Baltimore. That's rarefied
- 13:08Speaker 1: air of a certain age if you remember cal Ripken,
- 13:11Speaker 1: and he has apparently turned down a long term, big
- 13:14Speaker 1: money extension from the Baltimore baseball team.
- 13:16Speaker 2: Do you believe this? Do you believe that's accurate? So
- 13:21Speaker 2: I believe it. I'm gonna vote yes on this.
- 13:24Speaker 1: And the reason that Gunner Henderson turned down big money.
- 13:28Speaker 1: We're not sure how much money, but it's big money
- 13:31Speaker 1: for the long term. The reason the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper
- 13:36Speaker 1: that is a Scott Boris client. Scott Borris is the agent.
- 13:40Speaker 1: I saw Scott at the Yankee Angel game schmoozing behind
- 13:45Speaker 1: the suitees there behind home plate. Here's the thing, though,
- 13:50Speaker 1: Gunner Henderson, you hire Scott Borris Boris as the gatekeeper.
- 13:55Speaker 2: He blocks more shots than well Tombo.
- 13:58Speaker 1: Right, you don't hire Scott by us to give a
- 14:01Speaker 1: hometown discount to the team.
- 14:03Speaker 2: You're playing for. The messaging is rather clear.
- 14:06Speaker 1: The messaging is, eh, I'm gonna wait until I hit
- 14:10Speaker 1: free agency. Henderson's got some years to go. He's about
- 14:13Speaker 1: to turn twenty four. It is risky business. It is
- 14:17Speaker 1: risky business for several reasons. You could blow out your knee,
- 14:21Speaker 1: you can have a shoulder problem. You play that you
- 14:25Speaker 1: could you could game. There is a regression. Not every
- 14:29Speaker 1: young player continues to ascend up up a way. There
- 14:33Speaker 1: are plenty of young players that peak too soon. The
- 14:37Speaker 1: league adjusts to you and suddenly you're not that great anymore.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Pretty good example of that be a guy like Cody Bellinger,
- 14:45Speaker 1: who won an MVP Award with the Dodgers, and he's
- 14:48Speaker 1: not a bad player, but he's just an average outfielder.
- 14:51Speaker 1: There's nothing really special about Cody Bellinger in terms of offense.
- 14:55Speaker 1: And that's an example, right, that's an example, and also
- 14:58Speaker 1: based on simple in inflation, if you get the money now,
- 15:05Speaker 1: it will be worth more than if you get the
- 15:07Speaker 1: money later because of the way the economics work and
- 15:10Speaker 1: all that, especially with the way the dollar has been
- 15:15Speaker 1: downgraded year after year after year and continues to be downgraded.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Today it is the Ben Mahlor Show. We are working

- 21:07Speaker 1: emotions on this because I was I was told by
- 21:10Speaker 1: Tom Hanks years ago there's no crying in baseball, so
- 21:13Speaker 1: I thought that was the case. You do feel bad
- 21:16Speaker 1: on the human level, like what are you doing, dude?
- 21:17Speaker 2: This guy's crying?
- 21:19Speaker 5: Crying not crying.
- 21:22Speaker 1: Baseball is really like nobody and he's trying to make
- 21:26Speaker 1: a name for himself, and he's totally effing up and he.
- 21:29Speaker 2: Clearly he cares, which is good.
- 21:32Speaker 1: I've I've always said, like, you make mistakes and stuff,
- 21:35Speaker 1: and I've worked with a lot of people that make mistakes
- 21:37Speaker 1: all the time. I make mistakes all the time. But
- 21:38Speaker 1: as long as you're trying, you put the effort in.
- 21:41Speaker 1: The problem is when you have people that don't care,
- 21:44Speaker 1: that just go through the motions and take no pride
- 21:46Speaker 1: in the work, that's the problem.
- 21:48Speaker 2: And so this guy cares.
- 21:50Speaker 1: Now I don't know whether he can play or not,
- 21:51Speaker 1: but he cares, and that means something. That absolutely means something.
- 21:57Speaker 2: It is the Ben Mahlor Show.
- 22:00Speaker 1: As we are working away through the overnight, we do
- 22:02Speaker 1: have asked Ben coming up in a few minutes.
- 22:04Speaker 2: Let's get back to the.
- 22:05Speaker 1: Calls and we'll say hello to Eenie Meenie, miney mo.
- 22:09Speaker 1: Let's say hello to Steve in Minnesota.
- 22:12Speaker 2: What's going on, Steve, Welcome.
- 22:14Speaker 6: Hey, Ben, the thanks lot. I may have observation or
- 22:18Speaker 6: whatever that on the night that you gave Charlie his nickname,
- 22:22Speaker 6: you were asking him six seven eight nicknames, and including
- 22:26Speaker 6: was the Dallas Dumper, and he turned that down, and
- 22:29Speaker 6: I was just wondering, isn't that rude to give him
- 22:31Speaker 6: a nickname that he didn't want.
- 22:34Speaker 2: No, no, you're not allowed. The Broke code is you're
- 22:37Speaker 2: not allowed to come up with your own nickname. So
- 22:38Speaker 2: we decided the nickname. We gave him the option. We said, hey,
- 22:41Speaker 2: you can vote for this or that or whatever. But
- 22:44Speaker 2: it ultimately we.
- 22:45Speaker 1: Were the ones that decided the nickname, and we added
- 22:48Speaker 1: the Dallas number. And while you you might remember, initially
- 22:52Speaker 1: Steve Charlie was anti Dallas dumper, he now accepts it.
- 22:58Speaker 2: He now is okay with it. How about that?
- 23:01Speaker 6: In Minnesota, we kind of call people who are picking
- 23:04Speaker 6: on kids or whatever a bully, so maybe.
- 23:06Speaker 2: It'd be sure, how's it picking on kids? If he
- 23:09Speaker 2: calls up every night because he loves the show, how's
- 23:11Speaker 2: that pick?
- 23:12Speaker 6: Well, you gave him the nickname that he said he
- 23:14Speaker 6: didn't want. You chose the nickname that he said he
- 23:18Speaker 6: didn't want, But now you're saying he loves again.
- 23:22Speaker 2: I mean, maybe you're not an adult. I don't know.
- 23:23Speaker 2: You know how this works. I'll hang up on you
- 23:25Speaker 2: because you're probably too stupid. Just stay on the phone.
- 23:27Speaker 2: But the way it works is we decide the nickname,
- 23:31Speaker 2: and if you don't like the nickname, you don't call
- 23:33Speaker 2: the show. That's it. It's not that hard. It's very simple.
- 23:36Speaker 2: We come up with a nickname and if you like it, great,
- 23:38Speaker 2: If not, that's the nickname. Jed who Fled is a
- 23:40Speaker 2: great example. Jed had a different nickname and he ran
- 23:43Speaker 2: away like a coward.
- 23:45Speaker 1: He was supposed to do the event with with real talk,
- 23:48Speaker 1: We're gonna do the Octagon, and he fled. He was
- 23:53Speaker 1: nowhere to be seen, and we gave him the nickname
- 23:56Speaker 1: Jed who Fled. I don't think he likes the nickname,
- 23:58Speaker 1: but that's his nickname, and that's the way it works. Oh,
- 24:01Speaker 1: here's a blast in the past. Let's say hello to
- 24:03Speaker 1: blind Sea Bass, who's next on the Ben Maliser. We've
- 24:07Speaker 1: not heard from blind Sea Bass in many, many years. Hello,
- 24:09Speaker 1: blind Sea Bass.
- 24:11Speaker 7: Benjamin, my brother, how are you doing? My man?
- 24:15Speaker 2: You're back and you've come out of hiding and here
- 24:18Speaker 2: you are.
- 24:19Speaker 7: Yeah. This past couple of semesters have been a real
- 24:23Speaker 7: kicking the kotukis and it's taken a lot out of me.
- 24:27Speaker 2: Okay, well, I'm glad you're back. I'm happy.
- 24:29Speaker 7: Yeah, brother, I just like I said, I ain't called
- 24:31Speaker 7: in the wall here, you know, check in you all
- 24:33Speaker 7: help update that you know, still alive and kick in but.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Barely so barely you sound Do you sound okay? Are
- 24:40Speaker 1: you taking care of your medical stuff here? You dealing
- 24:42Speaker 1: with your problems? You're getting a little better?
- 24:44Speaker 7: No, Yeah, condisordered. Kidneys drop to thirty percent back in February.
- 24:50Speaker 7: And yeah, I had to change quite a bit of
- 24:54Speaker 7: eating and drinking habits and everything.
- 24:57Speaker 1: Yeah, that's better to be aware of it rather than
- 25:01Speaker 1: not change anything. And then you're the outcomes, not what
- 25:04Speaker 1: you're looking for.
- 25:04Speaker 7: Right exactly?
- 25:07Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, And I thought I thought we'd hear
- 25:10Speaker 1: from you when the Titans had the worst record, they
- 25:12Speaker 1: got the number one pick and drafted cam Ward and
- 25:15Speaker 1: then you were nowhere to be seen.
- 25:17Speaker 7: Dude, I was. I was so unhappy with that pick.
- 25:21Speaker 7: I did not want cam Ward. I think they should
- 25:24Speaker 7: have just wrote it out for with Levis for one
- 25:26Speaker 7: more year and got the better pick for me, the
- 25:29Speaker 7: number one again next year, with a better draft, better
- 25:32Speaker 7: crop with quarterbacks coming out.
- 25:34Speaker 1: You're saying, you're saying the famous blind Sea best. What
- 25:38Speaker 1: you're saying is they should have copied the Carolina Panthers
- 25:43Speaker 1: or no, the Chicago Bears. Because the Bears had their
- 25:45Speaker 1: more pick, they traded to Carolina and then they got
- 25:47Speaker 1: the number one pick from Carolina. But back to back years,
- 25:50Speaker 1: so they should have created the Probably nobody wanted cam Ward,
- 25:55Speaker 1: that's the problem. Like there's no one that was dying
- 25:57Speaker 1: to get cam Ward.
- 25:58Speaker 2: Otherwise they would have traded Yeah, I know.
- 26:02Speaker 7: Like I said, Unfortunately, they should have traded back. I
- 26:05Speaker 7: think they should have traded back, picked up more draft picks,
- 26:08Speaker 7: and then got that number one again.
- 26:10Speaker 2: I got you, I got you. All right. Well, listen,
- 26:11Speaker 2: I'm glad you're alive. That's number one. I'm happy you're alive.
- 26:14Speaker 2: Number two. Check in anytime you want. We're here every night.
- 26:17Speaker 1: All right, So come by, say hello, and don't be
- 26:20Speaker 1: a stranger. Okay, take care of your die too. Don't
- 26:22Speaker 1: be a loser, take care of yourself.
- 26:24Speaker 7: Okay, yeah, all right, brother, Hey, I always remember, don't
- 26:27Speaker 7: forget to clean the swamp off fighting alligators. You'll have
- 26:31Speaker 7: a good one feast.
- 26:32Speaker 2: Okay.
- 26:32Speaker 1: There is some great advice from blind Sea Bass and Tennessee.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Let's say hello to Hunter, who's in North Carolina. What's
- 26:41Speaker 1: going on Hunter Welcome.
- 26:43Speaker 8: Hey man, I just wanted to wish you guys a
- 26:47Speaker 8: good trip. You sound on all of you sound super excited,
- 26:51Speaker 8: and I'm excited for you. If I wanted to propose
- 26:54Speaker 8: another number two drop maybe to compete with.
- 27:03Speaker 2: So you believe you can do a better number two
- 27:07Speaker 2: that sounds.
- 27:09Speaker 8: I mean, I mean his is good. Yeah, I've always
- 27:13Speaker 8: wanted to get in there. But number four is locked up.
- 27:16Speaker 8: Number three seems to be pretty secure. Number one is
- 27:19Speaker 8: never going anywhere.
- 27:20Speaker 2: What about a number five? What about a number five?
- 27:23Speaker 2: If I use the number five, we can't have it.
- 27:26Speaker 8: Number five a lot. I can do it number five
- 27:28Speaker 8: as well.
- 27:29Speaker 1: I mean, the only thing I'm worried about is there's
- 27:31Speaker 1: a lot of ambient noise you're driving around, so I'm
- 27:34Speaker 1: a little concerned about that.
- 27:35Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guess maybe I can get off
- 27:38Speaker 8: the blue tube. But now I'll do it another time
- 27:41Speaker 8: when I'm when I can pull the phone. I am
- 27:44Speaker 8: dropping to work.
- 27:45Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, call us up when you're able to hold
- 27:47Speaker 1: the phone. And then, because we don't want to record
- 27:50Speaker 1: it because it's gonna sound terrible.
- 27:51Speaker 8: With all that I can hear that it's not.
- 27:54Speaker 2: Good, all right, there you are fine, I'll let you go.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Thank you for listening.
- 27:58Speaker 1: This hunter very excited about possibly being number five, not
- 28:03Speaker 1: number one, not the two, not the ones, and the two's,
- 28:05Speaker 1: not the threes, not the fours, not the fives.
- 28:07Speaker 7: But.
- 28:08Speaker 2: Number five.
- 28:09Speaker 9: You always pick number five as the winner, Ben, So
- 28:11Speaker 9: it might be a good button to have.
- 28:13Speaker 1: It could be in another we need. I'd like to
- 28:16Speaker 1: have all the numbers up until.
- 28:20Speaker 9: Like ninety seven, but nine's good.
- 28:24Speaker 1: Oh, nine would be all right, like you do like one,
- 28:26Speaker 1: because in one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine,
- 28:29Speaker 1: maybe ten, maybe ten. I think after ten, I think
- 28:32Speaker 1: we're good because with one through nine you can combine
- 28:36Speaker 1: if you if you say it's number nineteen, you'd put
- 28:38Speaker 1: the one and then the.
- 28:39Speaker 2: Nine together and then boom, last nineteen. So you're good
- 28:41Speaker 2: on that.
- 28:42Speaker 1: So all you need I learned this in second grade.
- 28:44Speaker 1: All you need is the one through nine, and then
- 28:46Speaker 1: you've got all the other numbers.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Good to go. You have this. If you have zero,
- 28:49Speaker 2: you have zero in there. Good point. So yeah, all right,
- 28:51Speaker 2: I let's say hello to eeny Meeni, miny moe.
- 28:55Speaker 1: Let's go to t Jo who's in la. We do
- 28:58Speaker 1: have ask Ben your quests, our answers coming up.
- 29:01Speaker 2: What's going on? Tito, welcome?
- 29:03Speaker 10: What's going on?
- 29:04Speaker 8: Band?
- 29:05Speaker 10: My first my first thought to call, honestly, was because
- 29:10Speaker 10: of that dude talking about that nickname. I just had
- 29:13Speaker 10: to put it out there, a little bro pipe down nickname. Nicknames.
- 29:17Speaker 10: You know. That's ah another story. Don't chip on it,
- 29:21Speaker 10: but it's good man. When y'all going off to Vancouver.
- 29:24Speaker 10: I heard y'all got this little tour going on or whatever.
- 29:27Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, big Vancouver weekend at least part of the weekend,
- 29:31Speaker 1: and that'll be today.
- 29:31Speaker 2: You're gonna drive up there. You should start driving teough.
- 29:34Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna make it, but we'll.
- 29:35Speaker 10: Be in if I could get from it later Vancouver
- 29:39Speaker 10: in that amount of time.
- 29:41Speaker 2: If you hold on and you're I assume you're not
- 29:45Speaker 2: available to leave right now. Right, you can't really leave
- 29:48Speaker 2: right now. Let's see, when would you make it?
- 29:51Speaker 10: Got me on a plane right now, I'll make it
- 29:53Speaker 10: as soon as possible. Man.
- 29:55Speaker 2: So if I bought your if I bought your plane,
- 29:57Speaker 2: do you have your passport? You're ready to go? And
- 29:58Speaker 2: all that stuff?
- 29:59Speaker 1: What says year It would take nineteen hours to drive
- 30:02Speaker 1: from LA to Vancouver. So that means that you would
- 30:07Speaker 1: not make it. I'm sorry, it's twelve hundred and seventy
- 30:11Speaker 1: six miles.
- 30:12Speaker 10: Maybe in another lifetime or another year, you know, well,
- 30:16Speaker 10: or you if you.
- 30:17Speaker 1: Can Tito, if you can contact like the goblins the
- 30:20Speaker 1: aliens that are out there, you could take a spaceship
- 30:24Speaker 1: up to Vancouver and then you'd be good to go.
- 30:27Speaker 2: Or you could just fly.
- 30:27Speaker 10: Oh yeah, that's easier for Ben Maler to say, what's
- 30:30Speaker 10: your connection time?

- 32:59Speaker 9: Got me thinking about a Canadian tuxedo bathing suit, that's

- 33:12Speaker 5: Uh, I'm I guess maple syrup does sound good? Are
- 33:16Speaker 5: we in the right area of I mean it is
- 33:18Speaker 5: all of Canada maple syrup?
- 33:19Speaker 1: Well, I mean it's known as a Canadian the eastern one, yeah,
- 33:25Speaker 1: from which is.
- 33:26Speaker 2: In the US, and then above that is where.
- 33:28Speaker 5: The gotcha got just so, yes, I don't know if

- 33:42Speaker 5: Butter on your lobster roll?
- 33:45Speaker 3: Uh?
- 33:46Speaker 2: Well, butter would be I don't know lobster roles, but
- 33:50Speaker 2: I'd go butter. What about you have a rain?
- 33:51Speaker 4: No, I gotta do butter, baby, not that I.
- 33:53Speaker 2: Don't believe in seafood. How about you?
- 33:56Speaker 5: Butter's the only answer. The Connecticut, I believe that is Connecticut. Yeah,
- 34:03Speaker 5: the Mayo is a main lobster roll.
- 34:05Speaker 2: I think, Oh, you just ripped the people to Maine. Okay,
- 34:09Speaker 2: that's they love their lapster. You go to Portland, Maine,
- 34:11Speaker 2: every gift shop has a lapse this shirt. All right,
- 34:13Speaker 2: what's next? What do we have?
- 34:15Speaker 5: All right?
- 34:17Speaker 2: First, Ben, your question is.
- 34:18Speaker 5: Are answer ferg Dog would like to know?
- 34:21Speaker 2: Hi Fergie?
- 34:23Speaker 5: Have you ever t peed or egged anyone's house or
- 34:26Speaker 5: had it done to you?
- 34:28Speaker 2: Yes? Both accounts.
- 34:30Speaker 1: When I was growing up, I lived in a community
- 34:32Speaker 1: that had nothing, but like Orange Groves, we had a
- 34:35Speaker 1: lot of freak time on our hands.
- 34:36Speaker 2: There was no internet and there was a lot of
- 34:40Speaker 2: toilet paper throwing, and we used to go around when
- 34:44Speaker 2: I was in high school.
- 34:45Speaker 1: We get random stuff off the road, like the side
- 34:47Speaker 1: of the road, like those cones, and put it on.
- 34:50Speaker 2: People's like homes, and we were troublemakers. What about you
- 34:53Speaker 2: with rain?
- 34:53Speaker 9: Oh, I think it's funny that tpeeing is practically illegal
- 34:56Speaker 9: now after COVID bud. Yeah, because the toilet paper is short.
- 35:00Speaker 9: But no, I never tpe at anyone's houses. We would
- 35:03Speaker 9: do tampons and forks.
- 35:06Speaker 2: Well that's pretty what want.
- 35:07Speaker 9: Yeah, so you take plastic forks and you stab them
- 35:09Speaker 9: all throughout the front yard, and then you take tampons
- 35:13Speaker 9: and you throw them all over the place.
- 35:15Speaker 4: And it would be on a rainy day too, we
- 35:16Speaker 4: would do when it was raining.
- 35:18Speaker 10: Oh.
- 35:18Speaker 2: Those were good to pick up, super fun, Okay cool.
- 35:23Speaker 5: I was a good kid, so I did not do
- 35:26Speaker 5: that to anybody for it.
- 35:28Speaker 1: But I did tell you there is something majestic, Cooper
- 35:31Speaker 1: if you throw a roll of toilet.
- 35:32Speaker 2: Paper and at the right angle as it's flying through
- 35:35Speaker 2: the air, the trail of the toilet paper.
- 35:37Speaker 5: Yeah, I could I could see that being gratifying. I
- 35:41Speaker 5: did have my car egged though shortly after high school.
- 35:45Speaker 5: That sucks because it scratches your paint.
- 35:48Speaker 1: Yeah, the problem is you got to get rid of
- 35:50Speaker 1: that right away if you leave, if you don't know
- 35:52Speaker 1: about it, and the eggs on the car for a while, yeah, yeah,
- 35:55Speaker 1: you're really you're screwed.
- 35:57Speaker 2: It's asked men.
- 35:57Speaker 1: Your questions are answers for the all of the hour
- 36:01Speaker 1: hashtag asked ben.
- 36:02Speaker 2: If you like this bit, we do it every week
- 36:05Speaker 2: at this time. If you don't like the bit, we
- 36:07Speaker 2: only do it once once a week. So who cares.
- 36:10Speaker 2: That's it all right? What's next?
- 36:12Speaker 5: Donkey Sausage has a question from twenty fifteen. Hi Donkey,
- 36:16Speaker 5: he would like to know do you have cable or
- 36:18Speaker 5: satellite TV?
- 36:21Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, none, mean, Bob, I haven't had cable
- 36:24Speaker 1: or satellite television in years.
- 36:27Speaker 2: I'm able to watch.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Everything I need on the interweb and the streaming and
- 36:31Speaker 1: other places.
- 36:33Speaker 2: So yeah, no, it's been been a long time.
- 36:35Speaker 1: And I would have kept I had DirecTV and I loved.
- 36:38Speaker 2: It, and I would have kept it.
- 36:39Speaker 1: They just kept raising the price, and I was like,
- 36:41Speaker 1: I could buy a car, I could pay for a
- 36:43Speaker 1: car every month, or get.
- 36:44Speaker 2: The I mean, why would I do that? I mean,
- 36:46Speaker 2: I like TV, but it's so stupid with.
- 36:49Speaker 1: All the channels I need to get to watch the games.
- 36:52Speaker 1: What about you, Lorraine?
- 36:54Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I only have Netflix.
- 36:57Speaker 2: You don't pay for any other streaming shit.
- 36:59Speaker 4: No, I'm very cheap and I don't think watching TV
- 37:01Speaker 4: is worth my money.
- 37:03Speaker 2: Yeah, what about radio?
- 37:05Speaker 4: I love radio. I listened to radio all the time,
- 37:07Speaker 4: even on my drives home.
- 37:09Speaker 2: Okay, almost people in the car. What about you?
- 37:13Speaker 6: Cool?
- 37:13Speaker 5: I too used to have direct TV, but when they
- 37:17Speaker 5: lost NFL Sunday Ticket, there was no reason for me
- 37:20Speaker 5: to stick around. So now I pay almost as much
- 37:25Speaker 5: as I did for Direct TV, paying for fifteen different
- 37:29Speaker 5: streaming streaming services. And I also have a Spectrum TV.
- 37:34Speaker 5: It's like the Internet streaming plan because that's the only
- 37:38Speaker 5: way I can watch like the Angels and the Lakers.
- 37:40Speaker 1: And there are some other ways you might be able
- 37:43Speaker 1: to do that.
