• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Cannsa City and we go where the Ben Mallard, chicken
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: fingers are piping hot, and the news of the day
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: takes us to Kansas City. Now, there are a couple
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: of stories that caught my attention, but this one why
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Old Tale a true crime mystery and supposedly that those
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: true crime shows are really popular. So if I just
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: send out a message saying, hey, we're doing true crime
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: over here on the mallor show the Overnight show, boom
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: big numbers. We're gonna in the description on the podcast,
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: We're going to put true crime Malar Mystery, and that'll
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: get amazing downloads. We get all the bots, all the
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: you know, because all these numbers are fake anyway, So
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: let's get a bunch of bots to download the podcast.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: It'll be great. The true Crime box h right from
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: the heartland. So if you didn't see this, and and
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: maybe not, maybe you missed it. So we we learned
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: that a a bullet some would say a magic bullet
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: was fired into the office of Andy Reid. Yeah, that
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid, the guy that coaches the Chiefs, the big guy,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid, fired into his office at the team facility.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Did this happen last night? Let me check my notes here, No,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: it did not happen last night. This did happened last week.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: Let me see here, No, it did not happen last week.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Let me see what must have happened like two weeks ago. Right,
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: we're just hearing about it two weeks ago. Let me
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: see here. No, no, it could No, that's not right. Now,
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: it turns out it actually happened last spring, last spring,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: early May of twenty twenty four. So since then Kansas
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: City played not very well. They barely showed up and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: lost a Super Bowl to the Philadelphia football team. Now,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: the the newspaper that's hanging on by a thread there,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the Kansas City Star, tells us that Andy Reid was
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: working alone slavy over the in the midnight oil there,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: burning the midnight oil, working alone in his offices is
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: in early May of twenty twenty four, and then bang
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: a bullet was fired from outside the building and broke
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: through the glass and left a hole through the window
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: and the blinds in Andy Reid's office. And the story
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: says it missed him by about fifteen feet. Now, you
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: might think fifteen feet is a kind of a wide
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: area had the basketball hoops ten feet high, But imagine
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: a bullet coming near you fifteen feet away, got lodged
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: in the wall. The story says, between his bathroom boy
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: and he's got his own bathroom. Man, he's doing well.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: You know you're doing well when you've got your own
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: bathroom and the entire door or the entry door that
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: goes into his office it must be a large door,
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: must be a large door. So there was that and
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: two more bullets. So not just one, but two more
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: bullets also were fired at the chief facility and one
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: of them hitting the I guess there's the third floor there,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: and another some outside air conditioning unit. So that was
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: clearly a bad shot. Has anyone been arrested? No, So
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: over a year later, it says, over over a year later,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: we're closer to a year and a half. So let
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: us discuss the question where are you at on this
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid true crime shooting gallery story. So I've got
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: San Diego, Zoo, rom Com and Spirit Airlines, and we
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: will combine all these things, will throw them together. We're
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: gonna make a spicy stew is what we're going to make.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: So a this got my attention. I said, there were
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: a couple of stories that got my attention. This one
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: was like next level, because I believe in the multiverse.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I believe in the multiverse, So there is a dimension
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: in the multiverse where this ended much differently. And could
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you imagine the unthinkable, like if this had gone a
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: different direction, And like, how do you explain that? Like
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: just on a random night in May. Nothing going on
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: in the NFL in May. There's some workouts, that's about it.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: It's the off season. It's just crazy Town, USA and
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Andy Reid. And you can really say, when you look
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: at his career now and what he has done, Andy
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Reid is a ragamuffin kitty cat. He's a fat cat.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: He survived Donovan McNabb puking in the Super Bowl when
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: he was coaching the Eagles. He's survived Patrick Mahomes getting
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: a dad body from eating what a Burger at three
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: in the morning, and now he's apparently dodged live ammal
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: in his office. And the story came out of thin air.
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: And I looked it up four hundred and seventy days
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: after this originally happened, and not a leak, no story
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: right before the Super Bowl about Andy Reid, no sideline
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: report during the Super Bowl. Andy Reid, by the way,
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: was shot at back in May. None of that, not
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: a single week. And man, you talk about a crock pot. Man,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: that's a slow cooked journalism right there, is what it is.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: And so usually TMZ has this stuff within the hour dateline,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Missouri takes its time. So somebody in Kansas City was like, hey, yeah,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: you remember when our coach, Remember when our head coach
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: almost got whacked last year? Yeah? Should we should we
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: let somebody in the media know about that? I guess, so,
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: I don't know what you do it. So they installed
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: bullet proof glass. Do you see this? They put bulletproof
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: glass up in Andy Reid's office after the fact, of course,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: And so Andy right now is literally in a office
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: popemobile while he's watching film and eating cheeseburgers. You know,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: he's got the cheeseburger in one hand, he's got the clicker.
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: On the other hand, he's got he's surrounded by by
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: bulletproof glass. I mean, I forget the walrus, you know,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: one of the nicknames. Andy's got a lot of nicknames.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: He's essentially living like a penguin at the San Diego Zoo.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: He's behind glass, plexiglass and all that stuff. So the
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: zoo they say, because they don't want kids throwing stuff
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: at the penguins. But Andy, they just don't want the
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: bullets flying in there. So he's he's doing that. Now
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I can relate to the story, Believe it or not.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I can relate to the story. Well, no, you can.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: You've never been shot at. You want to bet I
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: have something in common with cheeseburger Buddha. So let's go
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: back in the hot tough time machine. It's story time
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: on the Ben Meyler Show. Yeah, so this goes back
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: a number of years. I was doing a late night
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: radio show much like this one, but it was actually
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: earlier with FSR alumni member Jim Daniels. You might remember,
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: if you've been listening to the network a long time,
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: Jim worked here for years. He's at Rock and Roll DJ.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: So Jim Daniels and I were doing a sports show
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: together right here in La right there in the corner
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: of s. Paulvitt and Ventura, And we were in the
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: old studio which had these giant glass windows like good
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Morning America. We could look in and see the people
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: chirping away into the microphones there. And it's a Sunday
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: night and all of a sudden bang bang by drive by.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Now no one was hit, but suddenly poof, poof major
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: street credit for yours. Truly, we went from two guys
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: talking about I don't know, the Patriots special teams or
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: whatever was going on at the time, to radio gang
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: Land survivors. Uh. For a minute, I felt kind of
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: like fifty cent, but I was wearing headphones. I'd had
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: headphones on the whole thing. And uh. And that was that.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: And you know, just like Andy's mystery, no arrests were
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: made in that, and we we thought, we thought it
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: was a disgruntled former employee who might have done it,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: but we never found out who did it, and they're
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: probably in Timbuck two now, and so the same deal.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: It was unsolved and all that stuff. So we've got
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: our own unsolved mysteries episode right there. And Andy Reid's
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: hanging out there in Missouri were over in LA but
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: both ended up with the same outcome. The only difference
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: is we already had bulletproof class. See, we had they
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: had put bulletproof class I saw up. I guess realizing
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: our takes were so controversial that they had to put
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: that up. I don't know, but We're not in that
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: studio anymore, so you're screwed now, turning the page, we
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: head to Dallas. Why why not we go to Dallas?
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: And as where the NEPO baby Cowboy coach Brian Schottenheimer
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: he is a confident man. Not a good coach, but
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: a confident man. And the conversation centering on the status
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: of Edge rusher Micah Parsons. Daily Update, Daily update on
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: Michah Parsons. Will he be available inquiring minds, we'd like
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: to know September fourth, the season opener against the reigning
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. So Schottenneimer was asked about that.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: He said, quote, I think at the end of the day.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: I love when people say at the end of the day,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: because my day ends when the sun rises. When's your
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: day end? Seananneimer said, I think at the end of
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: the day, we feel like Mike is going to be
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: out there when we line up against Philadelphia. Here and
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: he said, this was yesterday, so fifteen days from hour.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: This is our Thursday show, so it's two weeks from today.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: He said, So question, what is your verdict? Give me
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: your verdict on Micah Parsons and his status for the
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: Cowboy regular season opener. So we know it's hot this
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: time of the year in Texas there, I think Frisco, Texas.
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: There it gets very hot. And on cue the contract drama,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: O rama. In Jerry's world, all they're sweating. They're sweating
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: like a brisket and a smoker, a good Texas brisket.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: And so Schottenneimer is playing the optimistic like stepdad here,
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: who thinks everything's going to be fine, nothing to worry about. Right.
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Parsons has been holding in must be nice, not practicing,
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: not risking injury and all that, even though he is
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: under contract. And so this is the Cowboys playbook, and
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I will repeat that for those of you in the
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: back of the room that have not turned up your
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: hearing aid. The Cowboys playbook is wait until the last
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: possible second, and then have a not one, but two
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: two Brinks trucks dump a bunch of gold bouyon on
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: the guy's lawn. They did it with Dak, they did
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: it with Ceedee Lamb. They'll try it with Micah Parsons.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: And so at this point it's like watching a rom
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: com with your wife being forced to watch it or
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: you're not married your girlfriend where you know the couple
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: are gonna end up getting together in the end of
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: the show, but you still have to sit there and
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: pretend like they're not going to get together, and you
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: waste ninety minutes of your life with unnecessary drama. And
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: so it's the same concept. Now there is a dimension again,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the multiverse. If they don't hammer out a deal, what
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: does that mean. Do you think Mike is gonna get
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: a job and try to compete with our friend in
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: Minnesota the number one uber eats driver there in Minnesota,
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: or you think he's gonna go door dash, I don't know.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: I mean this. And the guy's built like a Marvel
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: villain Micah Parsons and often plays amazing right like he's
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: got some kind of jet pack around his back there
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: until it's a big game, and then he plays like
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: a old Snoopy character Peppermint Patty. He's not he's not
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: gonna be delivering French fries or tacos or all that.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: And so the mala verdict is he is gonna play.
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: There's no question with or without a deal. He's already
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: got a contract. So the risk here is the old
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: injury fake out where Micah Parsons embellishes an injury, goes
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: a wall. If you will, however he will, he'll, we'll
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: deal with that. When we get to that point. We
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: know Jerry's still trying to figure out, like what venmo is? Yeah,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: what's around with your phone? What is that? I don't know,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: I don't know what that is? All right? Last word?
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: Here we head to the Bay Air. We got a trade. Now,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: we had a couple of trades in the NFL, but
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: I decided I'm only going to talk about one because
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: offensive people are better people. So we go there. The
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: forty nine Ers have acquired wide receiver sky More. Huh, yeah,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: that's Sky with two wys, Sky with two wise. Oh
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, I thought Sky only had one eye?
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Why two Wyse? So sky Moore a trade between Kansas
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: City and the forty nine ers, teams that have matched
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: up in recent years in some pretty big games, and
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: that will flip in the trade. From what I understand here,
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: the trade is sky Moore goes from Kansas City home
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: with the ben mallor chicken fingers. He goes over there
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: to Santa Clara and they flip a sixth round pick
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: and a seventh round pick, but not next year. That's
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: not till twenty twenty seven. So what does all this
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: tell you? What does all this tell you? So it
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: tells me I'm gonna go first. It tells me that
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: the Niners are. They're shopping like Mike colleague Rob Parker
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: here at Fox Sports Radio, at the NFL's version of
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: a discount rack. They go into Ross Dress for Less,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: like Rob Parker, and they're digging around there for a
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: shirt and they find one. Is it looks pretty good,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: so kind of wrinkled, and it's got a coffee stain
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: on it, and they're like, well, I mean, I don't
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: know that I want it, but it's only three ninety nine.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: And then I can send it out on Instagram and
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: people say, oh wow, you got that shirt for three
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: ninety nine. That's essentially sky Moore at this point, right,
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: that is a magic sky Moore is a magician. He
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: is abracadabra. Now the Niners need warm bodies. Kyle Shanahan's
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: looking at the depth chart. He's like, man, we're screwed,
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: you know, get me somebody with a pulse. And they're, well,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: we got this guy. Not a good pulse, but sky Moore,
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: why not? Doesn't matter if he's productive. The magician part
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: of sky Moore is he is an example of why
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: the draft is for Gayzy. This is what I talk
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: about this all the time. Sky Moore was drafted and
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: the second round, and having done NFL draft shows for years,
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: when someone's drafting the second round, a number of the
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: fans have their pants around their ankles. They're so excited.
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, we got a wide receiver for the
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: next ten years, a second round pick. Oh mg, and
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: he gets to play with my Hoomes Hall week crap, Well,
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: he got to play with the homes sky More. He
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: played with Travis Kelsey, soaking up double coverages, Andy Reid
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Hall of Famer, dialing up plays and dodging bullets. And
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: yet turns out the guy sucks sky Moore. Forget the
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: sky He couldn't get off the ground. Sky More in
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: Kansas City, it's like flying Spirit Airlines. You're in the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: middle seat. You got a fat guy to the right,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: you got a fat lady to the left. There's turbulence
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: and there's a crying baby right in front of you.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: That's it. That's the sky More experience. The compensation tells
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: you the whole story. Oh, you always go to the
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: compensation right because sometimes they get it wrong, but most
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: of the time. Kansas City flipping a second round pick
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty two for a pick swap in
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven, five years down the road. It's kind
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: of like buying bitcoin at the peak. It's a sore
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: of subject for me, but buying bitcoin and then realizing, well,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: I don't know, I clicked the wrong button and I
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: bought doge coin instead. Now, Kansas City thought they had
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: the crypto rocket ship. They were ready to go to
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: the moon, to the moon, to the moon, to the
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: moon to the moon. Instead they got like a like
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: a meme coin is what they got. And so you
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: got Mahomes out there, one of the all time graades
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: throwing dimes and sky Moore treating the football like it's
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: a hot potato. And they're playing a game at a
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: park somewhere a family picnic, and it's not going well.
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: It's just not going well.

  Speaker 1: com the Way Tire Buying show b So our lead
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: this hour is from the speculation machine. We'll call it
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: Urban planning. Urban Planning is an NFL head coach in
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: jeopardy of being suspended as the season begins two weeks
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: from today, the lidlifter in the NFL. Two weeks from today,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: the reigning champion Philadelphia Eagles and they take on the
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys and that Thursday night lidlifter. And there's some
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: chatter about a coach getting some trouble. I don't saw
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: this or not, maybe not talking about Jim Harbaugh, the
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: Chargers head coach and if you missed it, former Jacksonville
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: coach for like a month, urban Meyer urban Meyer. So
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: urban Meyer says that the NFL should suspend Jim Harbaugh.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: What Yeah, urban Meyer said because of the Michigan signs
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: stealing scandal. He says that there is precedent here, the
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: elephant in the room or in this case, the wolverine
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: in the room. And he says that the old Buck
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: guys coach, not him, but Jim Tressel got suspended because
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: of issues that took place while he was at the
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Ohio State University. Urban Meyer told the story. He said, listen,
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Jim Tressel went to the Colts and they made him
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: sit out six games, according to urban Meyer, six games
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: because the league honored the ncublea's punishment. Now, there are
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: some people that believe the NFL will ultimately take some
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: kind of action against Jim Harbaugh. There is an issue
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: whether or not precedent is legitimately involved in this. To
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: this point, however, the league has been radio silent. They
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: have not commented on the status of the LA Chargers
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: head coach. So let us discuss the question. My question
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: is this, what do you suppose the NFL will do
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: with Jim Harbaugh and any punishment. So I've got my
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: observations here, I've got pecan Pi, Airfrar and the amazing
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: Randy and we will combine all of these things together
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: and we're going to make some billable hours, some billable hours.
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: Over the years, we've had some legal beagles, some lawyers
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: that stay up late because they actually work on like
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: a lot of lawyers that don't work, but these guys
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: actually work, and they stay up late in their office
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: or in their in their home and putting stuff together.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: So here's a number. Why I spent about a minute
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: about a minute deliberating this. Didn't want to go too long.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: It's an overnight show. And I've determined what the NFL
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: punishment to Jim Harbaugh will be. I've got three words here,
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: three words. This is the NFL's punishment. I've got I
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: wrote down on my scorecard. Bupkis, zip bo and squad douche.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: That's it. That's that's the three right there for Terry
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: in England. So Urban Meyer, you know he's doing. He's
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: talking out of his padunkadunk his way. I'm telling you
• 24:02
  Speaker 1: that's what he's doing. I think my theory is because
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: he's still mad, because remember he was getting the lap
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: dance and that went viral and all that, and that
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: was the end of Urban Meyer, the beginning of the
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: end of Urban Meyers. An NFL head coach. Of course
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: the team sucked. And by the way, as far as
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: the Jim Trestle thing, Jim tressel I looked it up.
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: He was a replay assistant for the Indianapolis colt he
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: was a consultant. So that's like suspending the person that
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: gets the gatorade buckets out of the storage facility. What's
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: that about Jim Harbaugh here, the head coach of the charge.
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: You think that that guy Dean Spanos is just gonna say, ah,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: we got no problem. If you want to suspend my coach,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: go ahead. It doesn't matter for something he did in
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: ann Arbor, Michigan. Like, there's no chance, there's no chance
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: of that having If the NFL, I'm telling you, mark
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: my words, and I'm never wrong about these things. If
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: the NFL tries to force Jim Harball to even miss
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: a slice of pecan pie for dessert after he eats dinner,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: the NFL says, well, your punishment, Jim, is you can't
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: have pecan pie after dinner. You're gonna have to eat
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: apple pie. Now it was a I like apple pie,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: but you're gonna have to eat apple pie that's store
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: brand and is almost expired rather than fresh pecan pie.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: Guess what, Jim Harball will sue the NFL back to
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: the Stone Age, and he's gonna win because you know why,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: he wasn't an NFL employee when this happened. Hello, right,
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: what about Jim Trussel. It's a non starter. It's a
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: non star. Now what is my evidence? I would like
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: you to look over at John Gruden, who currently is now.
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: The race is not over, the game is not over,
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: the scoreboard has not gone final. But at this point,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: John Gruden is beating the NFL in court, and the
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: NFL needs their cronies on the Supreme Court to bail
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: them out. The league is already in hot water for
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: punishing John Gruden over the emails that he said while
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: he was not employed by the NFL. So do they
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: want to risk this again? Do they want to make
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: a repeat mistake with Jim Harbaugh? And what I know
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: about Jim Harball is he's rich, he's got lawyers, and
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: he's got a large ego. Those are three things I
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: know about Jim Harbor. So you think he's gonna say, ah, yeah, okay,
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: I'll sit out six games. I'll go surf somewhere, and
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: I'll go down to down to Newport or La goon
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: Is somewhere, and I'll go serf no. Right, So here's
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: the deal. The I'm gona tell you what's gonna happen.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: The NFL is gonna loo at this. They'll say nothing,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: and it'll kind of go away, and then urban Meyer
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: will go pound sand somewhere and that's it. And then
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: Jim Harball will be on the sideline to believe the
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: charges open up with I think it's Kansas City right
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: week one there, I know they're in Brazil to begin
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: the NFL season, and he'll be screaming at the referees
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: and thinking he's back coaching in Columbus against Ohio State
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: or something like that. Like, hey, Jimm's Week one of
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: the NFL. The only thing Jim Harbaugh is in danger
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: of getting suspended for is khaki pants. That's it. Like
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: the khakis he wears they can get in trouble with that.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: Right now, Moving on from that, we head to page
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: two Indianapolis. We go follow up to the follow up,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: follow up to the follow up. So Daniel Jones has
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: been asked the question and he has responded to the
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: question Why is anything going to be different with the Colts.
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: You sucked with the Giants, So why would anyone think
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: things are going to be better with the team in Indianapolis?
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: And Jones said, quote, I think every situation is different,
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: he said, telling reporters every season is different. I'm growing
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: and developing as a player constantly, he said. He went
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: on to say a lot of things go into it.
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: I think I am prepared, Daniel Jones said, and will
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: continue to work hard. All right, So what did you
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: take away from Daniel Jones explaining his second act with
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the Colts is going to be different? So the first
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: thought I had is this is really ground baking. It's groundbreaking,
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: it's glass shattering commentary from Daniel Jones. It is I've
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: never heard an athlete say that. This is like saying
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: I'll be better at chess this time because I'm using
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: a different board. Well, no, it's the same. It's the
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: same game. No, No, the board's different, the boards different. Yeah,
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Danny boy. Right, you still got to move
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: the pieces around and all that stuff. You've got to
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: navigate everything that the NFL. It's not some kind of
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: group therapy session. Oh, it's getting closer to that. It's
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: getting closer to that, it's not there yet. And the
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: line that I loved was I'm growing and developing as
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: a player constantly right off sportscliche dot com. So I'm
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: gonna ask you a question, serious question. What does that
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: even mean? Like, that's the kind of thing you say
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: when your statue. You look at your statuet and you've
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: got to like put it near your your eyes. You're like, whoa,
• 29:27
  Speaker 1: that's like a one of those Sudoku puzzles, Right, is
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: a twenty four forty four and one twenty four to
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: forty four and one as a starter. That is not growth.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: That is erosion. That's the coastline eroding back into the ocean. Right.
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: It's perfect Danny Dimes. Right. The guy talks like he's
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: some middle manager on LinkedIn who just got whacked from
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: his job. He's like, I am prepared and I will
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: continue to work hard, no life, no feeling. But I
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: am happy that you're cutting and pasting that, because that's
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: never been said by any quarterback every you know, this
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: is the first time in my life that a quarterback
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: has said that I am going to again be prepared
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: and work hard. Never happens, and I'm sure he'll say
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: that right after he throws a pick six on a
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: bubble screen. That's it. So yeah, people say it's a
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: fresh start, it's not. It's a relocation of mediocrity, is
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: what it is. It's it's kind of like if you
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: have a broken air fryer and you change apartments, You're like,
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: in the back of my dad bounced from apartment to apartment.
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: So you change apartments, You're like, of course they didn't
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: have air friers back then, but you change apartments and
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: just go with the story, and you're like, I'm not
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: gonna buy a new air fraw, I'm gonna take the
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: old air fryer, and magically it's gonna work. Just because
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: I moved, it's gonna work. Spoiler alert, it's still not
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: gonna it's not gonna turn on. If it does turn on,
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: it's gonna sputter a little bit, and it's it's gonna disappoint.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: It's gonna this point. And so the colts, I look
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: at this on the outside, they're treating Daniel Jones like
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: a fixer upper with good bones. I think that show
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: was filmed in Indianapolis on HG TV. Good bones, and
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I look at it on the outside and I'm like, well, no,
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: he's a quarterback version of a house that's got black
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: mold and a cracked foundation. You don't renovate it, you
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: bulldoze it. And that's it, right. And Jones. The other
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: thing about this is he clearly needs validation. He's like
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: a guy. And we've all seen these dopes, and there's
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: women that do it, more women than men that do it.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: But they posted the Jim selfies and the guys will
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: always say, oh, the grind never stops. And I'm like, oh,
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: that guy's at JABRONI, that guy's at Gibroni's that guy's
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: a meat ed But listen, we get it. Dude. You're
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: at the gym. Congratulations, you want a cookie. You're working hard.
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: Guess what most people are doing some kind of exercise
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: otherwise you become a blob. Right, you want credit for effort.
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: That's not how it works. It's the NFL all that stuff,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: blah blah, it's not Pop Warner any Jones continues to
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: have almost no substance. He's got less substance than a
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: protein shake made with skimmed milk. And you know, a
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: bunch of broken dreams tossed in there for flavor. And
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: so it's always those things, right, Well, don't tell me,
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: don't tell me. Ah, yeah, I'm gonna do this. I'm
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: gonna do that, all that stuff. Now show me what
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: you did, and then you can tell me how you
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: did it after you've done it all. Right, now, final point.
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: We go back to the story. In Indianapolis, there was
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: a humdinger. Now this was full credit in US. I
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: did not see this. It was sent in by a
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: listener who knows the show and knows what I think
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: is red meat doing the talk show. So I want
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: to think. I believe his name is Mike. He's not
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: in Indianapolis, but he's somewhere in Indiana, and he says
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: small town and yeah, he listens a couple hours at night.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: And so he sent me this quote. He said, Ben,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: why didn't you mention this? That's why I didn't see it.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: That's why I didn't mention it. So now I'm aware
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: of it, so I'm going to talk about it right now.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: So this is Shane Steiken. You don't know who that is,
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: likely unless you're an Indianapolis and a Colts fan. He's
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: the head coach there, and he was peppered with questions
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: on why should the fan, why should the season ticket
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: holder of the Colts believe in Daniel Jones? He was
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: an abject failure with the Giants. And Shane Stiken paused
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: for a second. It wasn't a long pause, brief pause,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: and he said, I think that he meaning Daniel Jones,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: has proven that he's played good football in that twenty
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: twenty two season. Stikeen stated he had a hell of
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: a year that year. The coach said, I think that
• 33:56
  Speaker 1: was the highest completion rate in New York Giants franchise
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: history that season. Stiking quote continues on Daniel Jones quote,
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: He's proven to do it. I know he's had his
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: ups and downs, but everyone's journey is different, and we
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: feel confident in his abilities. Close quote question, how would
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: you grade Shane Steiken's defense for Daniel Jones proving he
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: can get it done with the Colts didn't get it
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: done with the Giants. How he's gonna get it done
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: with the Colts. So that was a masterclass in football
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: gas lighting with a capital G. So let's break this
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: apart scientifically. We'll put it under the Mallard microscope. So
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: the quote, the first quote that stood out, Jones had
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: a hell of a year in twenty twenty two. Now
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: a coach, it's Ben Mallor. I do a little overnight
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: show here at Fox Sport rated coach. Yeah, that year
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: where he had a hell of the giant offense looked
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: like it was powered by a rotary phone. Who are
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: you talking about? They won a playoff game against the Vikings.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, okay, yeah, they beat Kirk Cousins of the playoffs.
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: That's true. You know where the Giants passing offense ranked
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: with Daniel Jones, Yeah, they were twenty sixth in the
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: NFL in twenty twenty two. That's a hell of a year.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: Can I have Shane Steikeen is my boss creating my work.
• 35:31
  Speaker 1: If that's a hell of a year, that's a hell
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: of a year if you're at a haunted house for checkdowns.
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: So Shane Steikeen is really telling the Indianapolis fan listen.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: I know it didn't work out with the Giants, but
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: it's gonna work out now. And I'm your financial advisor,
• 35:48
  Speaker 1: and I would like you to buy on your app
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: on your phone where you buy stocks. I would like
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: you to invest in Radio Shack. I want you to
• 35:55
  Speaker 1: buy Radio Shack stock in twenty twenty five because they're
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: gonna make a big comeback. Okay uh. He said, Jones
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: had the highest completion rate in Giant's history, and while true,
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: you know what that means if you go back and
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: look at the tape there were a lot of three
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: yard slants to Richie James back in twenty twenty two.
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like bragging that your kid is an
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: honors student, got straight a's, and you don't explain the
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: rest of the story. As the Great Paul Harvey would say,
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: all of the kids classes were gym classes. It's the
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: amazing randy of quarterback spin, sleight of hand, smoking mirrors.
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: That's a little salesman razzle, dazzle and all that. Like
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: the Colts quarterback Plan. They're not rebuilding, they're rebranding failure.
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: Like all right, we got this furniture that's kind of
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: old and it smells musty. Let's just move it around,
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: why not? And steichen sound If you remember, I used
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: to watch The Simpsons. I haven't watched it much recently,
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: but Homer's had a great quote one time. He said
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: everybody is stupid except me. And that's what Shane Steichen
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: sounds like. Sounds like Homer Simpson. Everybody is stupid except me.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: Now I get it. He's got to defend the indefensible decision.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: There was no good decision because either way, the Colts
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: were absolutely poorked here. If they had gone with Anthony Richardson,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: well he sucks, he can't play. And they brought in
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: Daniel Jones, and we know, we know more that Daniel
• 37:25
  Speaker 1: Jones sucks than Anthony richards So this was a combo platter.
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: It was a combo platter for the Colts. And he's like, well,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: I got optimism, but there's also a delusion.
• 37:36
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: It's really leaned in. He leaned into coach me. It's like,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: let me cherry pick a mid tier stat and I'm
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: going to wrap that mid tier stat. I'm going to
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: wrap it up in a blanket of hope, hope blanket,
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: and I'm going to serve it to the fan base
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: like it's filet Minon and which he really is. You
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: just reheated four day old meat loaf is what you'd
• 38:03

  Speaker 3: About a month ago, it was reported buying an anonymous
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: insider that it would take a godfather offer for the
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: Giants to trade Jamis Winston. Back then, you said you
• 38:35
  Speaker 3: weren't buying it. Now, Giants assistant GM Brandon Brown said,
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: I appreciate people that are interested, but Jamis is a
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: New York giant. Ben, are you having you now?
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Well, he is a New York giant. No, I don't
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: believe it. Listen, that's how you play the game. You said, Well,
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk about hypotheticals. They always do
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: that bull crap. I'm not gonna talk about hypotheticals. Blah
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah.
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: Listen.
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: If I'm if I've got this right as I understand it,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Russell Wilson's going to start at some point, Jackson Dart
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: with an X is going to play. So what's the
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: way if if someone's gonna trade you a conditional fifth
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: round pick for Jamis Winston and he's not gonna play.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Trade him next Nearly two months into NBA free agency
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: and Russell Westbrook is still without a team. It's even
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: being reported that he could remain unsigned by the start
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: of the season, Ben, do you think that will happen?
• 39:22
  Speaker 1: Well, I thought he was gonna go to Sacramento. That
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: was the hot rumor, and I guess that fizzled out.
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: And uh, you know, Russell, he'll be in the NBA somewhere,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: he'll be He'll be in the NBA. He's gonna be
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: on a team. Uh, And it's gonna it's not obviously
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: not gonna happen till before training camp. But I don't
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: believe that he's going to be unemployed when the season
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: starts next.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Mariners outfielder Victor Billbleisz was suspended ten games for an
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: incident earlier this week, when he hurled a bat at
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: a pitcher after getting hit by a pitch during a
• 39:49
  Speaker 3: rehab assignment. Ben, do you think he got off easy?
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: Yes, you you don't. That's it. You cannot do that.
• 39:56
  Speaker 1: You can't throw the bat, you can't do it. There's
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: a lot of things you can do and they'll look
• 40:00

  Speaker 3: Lady Sideburns.
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: Hi, Lady Sideburns one of my favorite of all the
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: women that have sideburns, Lady Sideburns is my favorite.
• 41:03
  Speaker 3: I don't think that we have ever been asked this before.
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: Okay, a new question. We always get the same questions,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: but this is a new question. Original question.
• 41:11
  Speaker 3: Sided crew, Which foot do you put your shoe on first?
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: So when it comes to this, I'm ambidexterous. I am Okay.
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: Some days I do the right foot, some days I
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: do the left foot. It's not the same every day.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: It's not there's no rhyme or reason to it. It's
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: some days I go right, some days I go to
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: the left. That's Lorena, gosh, this is a very difficult question.
• 41:41
  Speaker 7: It's got to be the right foot first, because I
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: just put my foot directly in the shoe.
• 41:44
  Speaker 8: I don't even like bend down anymore. I just put
• 41:46
  Speaker 8: the foot.
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: Saw is there a saw?
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 41:49
  Speaker 8: It would be my right foot first? Then?
• 41:51
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: Really?
• 41:52
  Speaker 8: Yeah, because I put my right foot over my left leg.
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: Interesting, okay, cool, I am the opposite.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: See.
• 41:58
  Speaker 3: I initially when I read the question, I was like, oh,
• 42:00
  Speaker 3: I think I do both, And then I sat and
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: thought about it, and it is my left foot every
• 42:06
  Speaker 3: single time. That's the first one.
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Okay. No, No, I'm more advanced. I can do the
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: right or the left. You know. It's more open minded
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: than you are. Cool. So that's but what is next
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: year's ask? Ben? Your questions are answers for the rest
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: of the hour.
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: All right, let's see, we're gonna go with this. One's dangerous.
• 42:30
  Speaker 3: A JT the Wingman.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: Hi JT. I met him at Many Malla Meet Grease.
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: JT is a big fan of show. I met him
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: in South Carolina. He was in Vegas last year. He's
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: been all over the place.
• 42:40
  Speaker 3: He says, what is your favorite guilty pleasure in Las Vegas?
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: You know, I just love walking. I don't know it's
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: a guilty pleasure. I love walking around Fremont Street. It's
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: like a human zoo. They don't charge for it, and
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: just walking around and seeing all the characters around Vegas
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So I know that's really a
• 42:58
  Speaker 1: guilty pleasure.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: I gamble, obviously, I've been on sports and stuff like that.
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: But I I don't. I guess I'm boring. I don't
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: really something I really really do. That's tab But what
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: about you, well, Lorena, I don't know if you talk
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: about it? Hold on, all right, here we go, here
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: we go.
• 43:17
  Speaker 8: Gosh.
• 43:18
  Speaker 7: I love getting super fancy and then making sure everyone's
• 43:21
  Speaker 7: staring as I walk around. And I love drinking the
• 43:23
  Speaker 7: most egregious martinis in the nicest dresses.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: That's what I like doing okay, you like, are you
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: one of those people that gets the glass that's down
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: to your your ankle?
• 43:33
  Speaker 8: You know those will make you puke. Don't drink those?
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: Why will they make you pukee.
• 43:38
  Speaker 8: Is they're full of sugar?
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: Oh okay, my friend, those are all over the place.
• 43:42
  Speaker 8: Man, Yeah, they're so bad.
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: All right? Cool?
• 43:47
  Speaker 3: What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas?
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: Oh, speakeasy swingers club? You're going to? All right? What's
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: next year? What do we got? Coolhere? We got? Here?
• 43:57
  Speaker 2: We go?
• 43:58
  Speaker 3: This question from fer Dawn. Hi, Fergie, would you rather
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: only be able to scream or whisper when you talk?
• 44:06
  Speaker 3: I mean the time? No normal voice?
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 44:12
  Speaker 3: Like?
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: Both would both would suck? I guess I'd go screaming.
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: I would. I don't talk much if I if I
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: had that, I wouldn't talk much. But you scream. I
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: want people to hear you, so I'll go scream. What
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: about you? Rader?
• 44:25
  Speaker 8: Obviously screaming?
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously obviously I was gonna say whisper.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: But I mean, you guys both being so adamant about it,
• 44:35
  Speaker 3: it's making me double guess my my pick.
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: If you whisper, you might as well not be able
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: to talk. Nobody can hear you, so give.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: You every time you scream, Like eventually people will be like,
• 44:46
  Speaker 3: I don't want to hang out that guy. It's very
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: it's very loud and annoying.
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: Good. What's next year? What do we have?
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: Alf?
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: The alien?
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: O piner hi Alf he would have.
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: Not made him someday I'm gonna meet him.
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: Go ahead, Yes, he would like to know fries or
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: onion rings? And also isn't it great when you get
• 45:01
  Speaker 3: one of the other mixed in with your order?
• 45:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah? And if I ever end up working in fast
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: food and a few more bad jos, I probably will.
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna be the guy that puts extra fries at
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: the bottom of the back. That's my move.
• 45:16
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 45:16
  Speaker 1: I read one of these marketing books that I read
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: a while back, and they said that five guys now
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: five guys gouges you and I don't go there anymore
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: because it's too expensive. But they said, part of the
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: original appeal of five guys is they intentionally overfilled the
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: fries because they knew the customer would it. Boy, I'm
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: getting a lot, you know, getting I'm getting more banged
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: from my buck. And it was a little marketing trick,
• 45:38
  Speaker 1: and it worked until they raised the price of the
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: fry and then people realize, well, I'm getting a lot,
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: but I ain't going there. But yeah, friser. I eat
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: many more fries than onion rings. The problem with onion
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: rings is it's got to be properly fried and breaded.
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: If it's too big, the onion ring and there's too
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: much just the onion's too big. The onion to breading
• 45:59
  Speaker 1: race got to be right, and very few places do
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: it right. So I'll go Potato, I'll go the I'll
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: go the fry. Lorena.
• 46:06
  Speaker 8: Oh, I love a good onion ring.
• 46:09
  Speaker 1: Well I do, don't get me wrong. I love a
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: good ring because.
• 46:11
  Speaker 8: That's like a delicacy, you know what I'm saying. Like
• 46:13
  Speaker 8: fries are an everyday thing. But but I don't want
• 46:15
  Speaker 8: to fancy.
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: I don't want to eat an onion ring that's the
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: size of a bagel. I don't want.
• 46:20
  Speaker 7: Really, I love it, though I have to like bite
• 46:22
  Speaker 7: in one side and then go around like, yeah.
• 46:25
  Speaker 1: No, the onion is too big. That is bad onions ratio.
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: Baddion etiquette.
• 46:32
  Speaker 8: I'm gonna go onion ring.
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: Cool now see, I think the onion ring is a
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: is a treat. I like it, Like Loraina, I don't
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: know that I could every time get onion rings. Uh,
• 46:46
  Speaker 3: the fries are more of an everyday thing for sure,
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: but a bomb onion ring completely trumps like bomb fries.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: However, though the potato you get everything out of the potato,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: get the fry, but you get potato wedges out of
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: the potato, you get the crinkle cut. Those are considered
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: fries as well. So like the onion ring, Yeah, there's
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: thick onion rings and there's thin on you ring, but
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: there's only a couple of different ways to make on
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: your ring. The potato, though, you can even drink the
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: potato and make it alcohol, So it's you go with
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: the potato. All right, What's next?
• 47:19
  Speaker 3: The King Rory would like to know. Have you ever
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: bought a product off the TV?
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: Oh? Got yeah, Well, I'm of the age like before
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: before the internet. Back in my day, I loved late
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: night infomercials. Me and my brother bought this car wax
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: because the guy lit the car on fire with the
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: wax and we thought, oh man, we got we gotta
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: beat you know, our grandpa's car, where we'll light it
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: on fire and so we bought some car wax, and
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I bought a couple of other things off those infomercials.
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I bought probably less than five, but more
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: than two.
• 47:54
  Speaker 8: Lorena shockingly, no, I know my grandma.
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: Did you know?
• 47:58
  Speaker 8: It's an old person thing, not not so much of
• 48:00
  Speaker 8: me thing.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: Well, thank you, Lorain, I appreciate that. Coop. We'll go
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: ahead there.
• 48:03
  Speaker 3: Cool. Yes, I have like a magic role back in
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: the day.
• 48:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're an old person.
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: Magic at home. We'll start to do this real quick.
• 48:11
