• 1:29
  Speaker 5: I've been working from seven am to seven pm Monday
• 1:31
  Speaker 5: through Friday, which means on Saturday I am a dead
• 1:34
  Speaker 5: man walking. So unfortunately, this is my bonn voyage, my farewell.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: Whoever replaces me, I am going to train them and
• 1:44
  Speaker 5: give them all the classic Mallard drops and do the
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: best I can. But yeah, for me, I need to
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: sleep in on the weekends now.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, I hear you.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And so at least you didn't leave to become
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: a bus driver. You left to work at a school,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: does that?
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: I mean?
• 1:58
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean I'm still full time at the network,
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: thank god. But you know, I looked in my inbox
• 2:05
  Speaker 5: of my old email and my very first zoom request
• 2:09
  Speaker 5: with you, I found eleven twenty four two zero two one.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: So I've been doing this with you since twenty twenty
• 2:16
  Speaker 5: one day.
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: There you go.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: And I don't even know when I started this.
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: I did it with Gascon for a little bit and
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: then he bailed the retire to move to Florida, so
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: we lost him to retirement, Roberto left to become a
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: bus driver.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: So you know, on too the next But we wish
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: you well, Danny.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: It has been fun. I'm sorry to see you go.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: I was hoping you would stay. But I understand it's
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: we don't get paid a lot for this. It's not
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: a money maker, unfortunately.
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: Well I was using my schedule as the reason. But
• 2:48
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you want to dig deep and pull
• 2:51
  Speaker 5: the curtain back all the way. And I don't want
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: to say anything bad about iHeart because hopefully someday when
• 2:56
  Speaker 5: I'm sixty five, I'll be doing the Thunderdome podcast. But yeah,
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: the way it's set up is not in favor of producers.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Pay that's me and his money.
• 3:08
  Speaker 5: I wish it was, because then you know it would
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: be worth it to work on no sleep. But the
• 3:13
  Speaker 5: way it's set up, the way it's set up right now,
• 3:15
  Speaker 5: it needs to be like some young kid who just
• 3:17
  Speaker 5: wants paper route money to get the reps.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know it's it's well, you know, don't we
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: get the meat and potatoes of it. But you know
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: it's not great on this end either, considering the amount
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: of time put into it.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: But you do it.
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: I look at your mansion. Yeah right, you're in the
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: mallor mansion right now. Can't even afford gas.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to cut back.
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: I put seventy two dollars in my tank on Saturday.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I want a camel.
• 3:44
  Speaker 5: Last Saturday, I'm at the pomp and I'm like, Lord, please,
• 3:48
  Speaker 5: at least have it go halfway. I stopped at seventy two.
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I am not going to fill up. I
• 3:52
  Speaker 5: don't want that sort of depression. On the weekend, it
• 3:56
  Speaker 5: barely went up past halfway.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: That's terrible.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I was. I went to eighty dollars.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: And it's weird because it's like this, as long as
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: this stuff's going on in the Middle East, it's going
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: to continue to go up. So it's like you kind
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: of like you're you're damned if you do, and you're
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: damned if you don't. You need gas, and so like
• 4:14
  Speaker 3: if you you know, I was like, well, you got
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: to keep at least some gas in there, and I
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: was like, well, you fill it up because it's going
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: to get more expensive tomorrow. Like I don't think it's
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: gone down or stayed the same. It's always going up
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: a little bit at least every day. So that is
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: the big announcement though from Danny g So we'll I
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: don't know who's going to replace Danny.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: I've got to talk to the corporate people there and
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: see what's going on.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: And I was even throwing around the idea of like
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: mixing in some of you guys that are big fans
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: of the podcast at least for the mailbag part of it,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: and have you guys come on, and you know, I'm
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: kicking around some different ideas.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: We'll see what the future holds. I don't know.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: I might keep doing the podcast. I like working for Peanuts,
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: so we will.
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: We will continue that, and then we'll I want to
• 4:59
  Speaker 5: thank you for the last five years because it's been
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: a lot of fun sharing our adventures and answering the
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: mail bag questions every weekend. And I think people who
• 5:10
  Speaker 5: know me best know how much I love the Mallard Militia.
• 5:13
  Speaker 5: It's been a privilege to be a big part of it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 5: And I dude, I have hundreds and hundreds of drops
• 5:20
  Speaker 5: in my laptop. I'm gonna bust out some old classics
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: during this forty minutes, and like I said, whoever comes next,
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna definitely be file sharing.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: All right, former heismooner from USC he killed two people,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: cut their heads off.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: What no, no, you idiot, hard past. You pay me
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: five hundred thousand dollars on endorse a gay magazine. Those
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: will never be hurt again.
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: Nah, not if I have anything to do with it.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: I've got Lorena. She doesn't play any of the old stuff.
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: She don't know what it is, but I hear you.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Hopefully whoever is on this we'll do a better job.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: But anyway, all right, let's get to it. Ohioil hit
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: that button. There you go, Ohiol, bring it in.
• 6:07
  Speaker 6: It's all right.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: First up is uh Julio.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: He's in the South Bay here in SoCal. He says, Hey, Ben,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I know you've talked about this, but all you need
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: is one thousand bots and you can beat Joe Rogan
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: in downloads.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: And this is again. I keep getting the story every week. Danny.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: We've talked about it a lot on.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: This podcast because it is validation that the matrix is
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: just bull crap. This guy that used AI generated songs,
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: there's some new details out. I guess that's the interesting part.
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: How exactly he did it. The guy we knew he
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: played guilty. He's in North Carolina. He used over one
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: thousand bots over a seven year period, and he was
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: able to get from according to the Department of Justice.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I think it was a Spotify Yeah, paid him, paid
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: him like seven million. Accord of the story here, the
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: operation relied on fifty two cloud service accounts, which all
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: of which ran twenty bots each. So you knew the
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: math on that they were one thousand and forty bots
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: that were used.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: They streamed up to.
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: That's a weasel term, six hundred and thirty six songs
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: per day. And so that's six hundred and sixty one thousand,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: four hundred and forty streams per day. And this is
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: according to the guy's math. So on the royalty rate
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: of a half a cent per stream, he generated Oh
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: my god, three thousand, three hundred and seven dollars per day,
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: one zero point two million per year.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Geez, oh god.
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: We have zero bots on this podcast? Why why did
• 8:09
  Speaker 5: we not do that?
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: No, I'm serious, Like, I am not against bots.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: If I'm just not, I'm too cheap to buy them,
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: and I don't know the technology on how to create them,
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: so I'm not.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but it's somebody out there.
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: There was a host years ago, Danny at Fox Sports Radio,
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: who his kid figured out like bots and all of
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: a sudden, I remember this, Yeah, yeah, you ended up
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: with Yeah, a lot of followers. All of a sudden
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: they were all you know, they weren't real. But it
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: doesn't matter.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: So more than eight million dollars, I am every time
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: I look at it, I'm blown away.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: The guy played guilty to one count of one count
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: They always get you on the wire fraud.
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: The maximum sentence Again, if we talked about this anything
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: the last week was five years in prison. He's not
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: gonna get anywhere near that. And he's had to forfeit
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: over eight million dollars. He's had to forfeit, so did he?
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: I guess he didn't pay taxes on that, So there
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: you go. Yeah, Hey, Julio, Julio, if you know how
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: to get bots, you know, hey, support the Ben Maler
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: Show podcast, the Fifth Hour podcast. I'm not doing it,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: but hey, if you guys do it, that's you know,
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: each their own.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: What am I going to do? My gut?
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: Joe from New York rights in He says, Hey, man,
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: I didn't hear you talk about this on the Overnight
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: show why not?
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: And then he mentions this this I think we did
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: bring this up.
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: Actually the quad what's the quadruple amputee guy? The cornhole
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: guy that killed somebody?
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: There's a sudden story.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well this guy, his name's Dayton Weber. He's a
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: quadruple amputee. They say he's a prominent cornhole professional. Is
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: there such a thing? Danny is a prominent cornhole professional?
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: That doesn't seem.
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: Wait is it this same Weber guy?
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: That guy?
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, just go with it.
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: But this guy was arrested on suspicion of murdering a
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: man in his.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: Car, shooting him. The guy is a again.
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: Quadruple amputee, and that is apparently the issue he had
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: was he couldn't move the body because he was a
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: quadruple amputy.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: So he killed the guy, but he couldn't move the body,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: so I guess.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: He he he needed some people to help. And then
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Joe's like, is he a legend or a loser? Why
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: would say he killed somebody? So he's a loser. At
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: the same time, though, Danny, when it comes to firearms,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: if you're a quadruple amputee and you're able to shoot
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: guns like that.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: You're like the Jim Abbot.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: Of guns in many ways. Right, does anyone even know
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: who Jim Abbot is?
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: Anyone?
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Is that?
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: That's a dated reference? Right, that's it. I can't I
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: got to update my reference.
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, if anybody looks up Jim at right now, they'll
• 11:00
  Speaker 5: know why I'm going to play this.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Drop racist comparison. Jim was living large compared to this guy.
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: Let's see, maybe not racist but limitised. Hello. See that's
• 11:16
  Speaker 3: kind of stuff we're gonna miss any right there. That's

  Speaker 4: No, No, we didn't talk about it, but I did
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: see this.
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: So the guy says that we've been eating cereal wrong.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: He says that we should eat cereal with a fork.
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: Who and uh, yeah, this is this guy.
• 14:31
  Speaker 5: And then what was the slurp out of the bowl
• 14:33
  Speaker 5: for the extra milk? My mom used to swat us
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: in the back of the head for doing that.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: Uh uh.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: He suggested a two utensil method, like chopsticks or something
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: like that.

• 14:55
  Speaker 5: the fork and then scoop the milk out with a spoon.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: Afterwards, he said he did a video saying here's how
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: to eat breakfast cereal. He says, First of all, you
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: add your milk of choice. He says, then with a
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: spoon held in your dominant hand and the fork in
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: your non dominant hand, you will eat.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Now it's not soup, so you don't need a spoon
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: spoon away from you.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: He says.
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: It's hard to describe exactly what he's saying here because
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: he didn't. This is not written very well. What I'm
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: looking at here. But the guy's a douche. That's all.
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: That's it.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: I know he does.
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: There we go. You want me to play it? I
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: could play it.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, here we go.
• 15:39
  Speaker 7: Well, first of all, adds your milk of choice. I'm
• 15:42
  Speaker 7: going to semi. And then with a spoon held in
• 15:46
  Speaker 7: your dominant hand and the fork in your non dominant hand,
• 15:50
  Speaker 7: you will eat. Now, it's not soup, so you don't
• 15:52
  Speaker 7: need to scoop away from you like you would with soup.
• 15:54
  Speaker 7: But you can use the fork to push some corned flakes.
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this guy's a genius.
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: Yeah, there you go.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: And again at bots, Danny, there's no way that guy
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: has four million people follow real people bots.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonnaots. I'm going bots, botspotspots. I am genuous. Yeah,
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: cereal is the My theory on this is a malorism, Danny.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I hope you're ready for this. So the cereal thing
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: is similar to fast food.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Now, you know my theory on fast food is every
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: minute that goes by once you get the food, the
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: quality of the meal goes down with every minute that
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: goes by.
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: You have to eat it right away.
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: You cannot wait.
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: It gets soggy and cold and disgusting and rubbery, especially
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: in and out. Yeah, it's a race. It's a race
• 16:47
  Speaker 3: against time with fast food. I feel the same way
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: about Cereal. I cannot tell you how disappointed I was
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: at a child as a child when I would eat
• 16:55
  Speaker 3: my Captain crunch and I would wait a little bit
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: and then it would get just mushy and soggy, and
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: I said, well, this is not this is Captain mushy.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Mom, it's not crushing, And she's like, well, you got
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: to eat it quicker.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: I'm like, well, no, I don't want to eat it quick,
• 17:07
  Speaker 3: but you have to eat Cereal fast or it gets
• 17:10
  Speaker 3: all soggy. And discussing another food like that nachos ballpark
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: nachos with that neon orange, that that gooey cheese. You
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: gotta eat that fast too, or he gets all disgusting.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: Give me a little taste of that dick.
• 17:25
  Speaker 4: How dare you?
• 17:26
  Speaker 2: You know?
• 17:27
  Speaker 3: I'm just I'm just saying, all right. Brent from Seattle
• 17:29

• 17:57
  Speaker 3: idea how many times weed Man has been arrested, Brent.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure weed Man doesn't know how many times
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: he's been arrested. But a lot of these things are
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: just you know, he get arrested. It's catching release, you're
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: not these are minor crimes. You're technically arrested, and then
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: they let you right back out.
• 18:12
  Speaker 5: And then one of the times he called us, he
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: shared how everybody at the police station there knew him. Remember,
• 18:22
  Speaker 5: oh yeah, he is famous at the police station.

• 18:35
  Speaker 3: He was out there panhandling and begging and he was

• 19:31
  Speaker 3: There's no way that's gonna be cheap, right, says, you
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: get a little more space. Uh yeah, Robert, I I'm
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: a skeptical like who would not want that?
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Would you rather just sit there stuffed in? Or you
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: get an extra space, you get to sleep?
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Hell yeah, Although it wouldn't really make a lot of
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: sense if you're flying from LA to Vegas or Phoenix
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: to LA or Denver to Salt Lake or something like that,
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: that wouldn't make a lot.
• 19:59
  Speaker 5: Bet you, they don't even offer for it on such
• 20:01
  Speaker 5: short flights. You're right, that's for a flight that's five
• 20:04
  Speaker 5: hours or longer.
• 20:06

• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Pete from Phoenix writes, any on the mail bag and
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: by the way, if you want to email for next
• 20:15
  Speaker 3: week's mail bag.
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: And I don't know who'll be in with me Danny.
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: This is the last show with Danny, but I will
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: have some I'll either do it by myself or somebody

  Speaker 3: will be in here. You can email Real fifth Hour
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: at gmail dot com. That's Real fifth Hour at gmail
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: dot com. Pete writes in from Arizona, says Ben and
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Danny is this good parenting, old school parenting or bad parenting?
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: And then he said this AI, there's YouTube apparently there's
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: YouTube videos.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: Let me phrase this the right way is Pete, what
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: you wrote is not the right way.
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: So on YouTube, there's apparently some videos that have people
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: have figured out that they're called educational videos. They're made
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: by AI and the videos feature such things as teaching
• 20:59
  Speaker 3: kids to play in traffic and eat toxic food.
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: So that seems that seems pretty good, right. That AI
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: stuff is they have not worked out the.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Kinks on the AI, right, there's a lot of there's
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: a lot of stuff in there that is is not great.
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: The website Futurism.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: This is according to again Pete sent me a link
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: from Futurism seventy four. Uh, there's I guess these are
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: seventy something AI generated videos. One video shows children walking
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: in the middle of the road with cars approaching, and
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: it was incorrectly teaches road rules, claiming green green means
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: right instead of go.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: And then there's, uh, there's a bunch of other ones here.
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: They misspelled the name of Rhode Island or the August
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: the audio and the description it was Ribio Island. They
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: misspelled Connecticut, Oklahoma was ok L L D I A.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: And they also misspelled Louisiana.
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: So there you go. All right, it's like the Mallard
• 22:11
  Speaker 4: spelling bee.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you were part of that. We have not brought
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: that back this summer when there's not much going on.
• 22:18
  Speaker 4: I'll bring that back.
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: Scott from Northern Kentucky writes in He says, hey, Ben
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: and Danny g as.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Always loving the podcast. A couple of where are they
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: now questions? Ben?
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I remember, if I remember correctly, you got Moxie. You
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: also got a second new dog. You never mentioned it
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: is still the Malor Mansion. No, no, Scott, we had
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: Moxie and Luigi. Moxie the English bulldog, Luigi the French bulldog.
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: And Luigi was an absolute just a knucklehead, like a
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: terrorist dog and would rile up. Luigi was like the
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: hype man for Moxie. He would hype up Moxie and
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: it just became an untenable situation. I figured out very
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: sneaky dog, like a nice I like Luigi, but it
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: was just it was.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: It didn't work out.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: So we sent Luigi returned to send her the Elvis
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: Presley song. Luigi's living a great life though out in
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: the in the desert where we got the dog from.
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: So no harm, no foul on that. And he also
• 23:23
  Speaker 3: says Scott says, whatever happened to the racist hillbilly couple
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: that used to email all the time fighting with Tammy
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: from Montana?
• 23:32
  Speaker 4: I remember them?
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what happened to them.
• 23:36
  Speaker 3: People come into the show and they leave the show.
• 23:38
  Speaker 3: We still don't have any closure on. For example, Jack
• 23:41
  Speaker 3: the Judge and Leslie they were going on vacation. They
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: stopped calling, and I have not heard from them, and
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: sometime I hope they're okay, Probably not, but I don't know.
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: Haven't heard from them?
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: Have you heard from Tammy?
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: Tammy not as much. I think she still listens. I
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: guess there's some kind of battle going on. I don't
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: know with Lorraina. I'm not sure what that's all about.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: I don't want to get in the middle of that one.
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: I have no idea, But I love Tammy. I hope
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: she's able to you know, she hasn't really called in
• 24:12
  Speaker 3: a while or or sent any messages. How about a
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: lace dye?
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: There you go?
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Who else? Somebody was asking me about another another carrier?
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: I forget Scott. Yeah, then these people come and go.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: You know the one I was curious about when I
• 24:31
  Speaker 3: was doing the past the podcast with Gascon during the pandemic,
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: the pilot.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: The pilot, Yes, the pilot exactly. Yeah, what ever happened
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: to that guy? That's the guy that I want to know?
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: Like, that guy was sending us wild photos from traveling
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: to China during the pandemic.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: China and what it was like and it was like
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: out of a horror movie. And yeah, I don't think
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: I just vanished. I don't know what happened to that guy.
• 24:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's weird. As soon as Gascon disappeared, so did he.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: I wonder if they might be the same person.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: Ryan from Shrewsbury Masks. I haven't emailed the pod in

• 28:01
  Speaker 3: But if possible, it's it's possible.

  Speaker 1: Is dot dear.
• 28:49
  Speaker 4: All the big girls there love the show.
• 28:51

• 29:02
  Speaker 6: How stupid is that?
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: Anyway? Mark Argus is dear Big Ben.
• 29:07
  Speaker 3: I thought last week's episode of The Mailbag, being hosted
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: by Joe Namath was not one of the better episodes.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: Alcohol and emails from the listeners just don't seem to mix.
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: There you go, that's from Marcus. That seemed like more
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: of a check in from Marcus. He just wanted to
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: check in.
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: Who So there you go? What else?
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: Do we have a few more Willie from Parts Unknown?
• 29:34
  Speaker 4: Rights?
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Since?
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: Says Ben and Danny h He says, is this something
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: you guys would do for the podcast? And he says
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: there were some guys on Twitch that literally tried to
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: find a.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: Needle in a haystack.
• 29:49
  Speaker 3: They spent eight hours trying to find an actual needle
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: in the haystack manipulating the balls.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: I've heard that one a. That's great.
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: They did this experiment on I guess this was this
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: week back on Tuesday, they sat through, they sifted through
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: piles of hay.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: It was eighty four degrees and they purchased.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: Seven blocks of hay to form a massive stack in
• 30:22
  Speaker 3: the backyard.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Using a small sewing needle.
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: So they put that in. They were trying to find
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: literally a needle in the haystack.
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: They've manipulated the needle.
• 30:34
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: See, the pair streamed until the sun had gone down.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: They had headlamps on. Finally, after eight hours and twenty
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: one minutes, they found the needle on the ground.
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: Here you go.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: So they did find they did have success.
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: It would only be good if somebody stuck it their
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: finger right into it, Yeah, held up their hand with blood.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: I got a question, Danny, would a metal detector detect.
• 31:02
  Speaker 6: A needle or no?
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: Probably?
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, then just use a metal detector.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: You can.
• 31:07
  Speaker 4: That's not fair, you can't. That's unfair, unfair advantage.
• 31:12
  Speaker 3: One of those things, Danny, though, where when we both
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: got into radio, This is like a radio morning show
• 31:17
  Speaker 3: radio bit like we did when I was doing local radio.
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: We put a woman on a billboard till the clippers won.
• 31:26
  Speaker 4: Oh god, she must be a skeleton up there. Dead.
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Shut up, all right, let's see here George and Batoon Rouge.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: Wait, you got to leave room for the clippers? Drop?
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: What's wrong with your clippers?
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: Dad?
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Just stop? This is not nineteen ninety three anymore. Okay,
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: the clippers are good.
• 31:47
  Speaker 4: He is five hundred.
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: You got the condor?
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: What? What? What? Just like that?
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: George from Botol Rouge right, San, He says, Hey, Ben
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: and Danny, do you think the reason Anthony Louisiana keeps
• 32:04
  Speaker 3: calling up flirting with Loraina is because he's stressed?
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: And then he says that.
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: George says that we're very proud of our ranking as
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: the top state in America.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: According to a new survey.
• 32:17
  Speaker 3: Louisiana, Danny, is the most stressed state in America.
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: I could do with a whole mouthful of that goo.
• 32:28
  Speaker 1: Twenty six.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: According to this Random wallet Hub ranking, they ranked all
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: fifty states across forty stress indicators in four categories.
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: Thank you for sending me the story, George. It's interesting and.
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: You want to take a guess now, Louisiana is the
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: most stressed state, Danny. Would you like to guess the
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: second or third most stressed state?
• 32:54
  Speaker 5: Well, it should be us in California with seven dollars
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: a gallon Gas.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: I agree with you.
• 33:01
  Speaker 4: It is not a cord to this.
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: Kentucky is the second most stressed state, second most New Mexico.
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: We have all those beautiful horses to watch run free.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Churchill Downs. Just go out there and smell the horse
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: crap at Churchill Downs.
• 33:21
  Speaker 4: I mean, I guess there's fences, but they run until
• 33:23
  Speaker 4: they get to the fence.
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: New Mexico is third. I have one of the old
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: radio buddies.
• 33:30
  Speaker 3: I get a friend of mine who did LA Radio,
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: was kind of a kind of a bit player, kind
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: of a part time player in La Radio. He went
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: to Albuquerque to do radio because he couldn't he was
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: just burned out. His career wasn't going that well.
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: He has been like the New Mexico broadcaster of the
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: year like four or five times. How great is that?
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: Danny?
• 33:50
  Speaker 5: Like it's a would you rather be a super big
• 33:54
  Speaker 5: fish in a small pond or a part time player
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: on the biggest stage.
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: I'm happy where I'm happy where I'm at.
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: I'm just like I know, but just in general, like
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: if somebody had asked you when you first started your
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: radio career, would you rather be, you know, Albuquerque's number
• 34:10
  Speaker 5: one morning show DJ for ten years, or you know,
• 34:15
  Speaker 5: like the overnight guy at Kiss FM in Los Angeles.
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, of course you'd rather be the overnight Kiss FM.
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: But I did.
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: Actually the first big time I say big time when
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: I started in radio in San Diego back in the nineties.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: The first job that I got offered that was like
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: a legitimate opportunity was in Albuquerque at a sports radio
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: station in Albuquerque which carried like the New Mexico.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: Lobos and and I was like, I was a kid.
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh man, I was I think of me,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: I should take it, and I turned it down.
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: I talked, I talked to my mom of course, and
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: some other people around at the time who were in
• 34:52
  Speaker 3: my world, and I decided not to do It worked
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: out pretty well, but there were a couple of years
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: there where I was like, oh, I should have just.
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: Gone Albuquerque and done it. But yeah, I think Albuquerque
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: is about the same size it was then. It's been
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: thirty years. I don't think it's gotten any bigger. It's
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: not like people are running to Albuquerque to move.
• 35:11
  Speaker 4: There or whatever.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, I don't have anything against Albuquerque.
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: Actually have one of my wife's uncles lives in New Mexico,
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: but not Albuquerque like Santa Fe or sounds like.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: Your moonwalking right now? No, no, no offense. Albuquerque is great.
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: Of a defensive back doing the back pedals at the combine.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: Yes.
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: And by the way, George, just to clarify, as far
• 35:34
  Speaker 3: as Anthony in Louisiana, let me just point out that
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: he is one of many that only call up to
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: flirt with Lorena. We have. This is a major issue
• 35:46
  Speaker 3: on the show Danny where just horn dogs call up
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: randomly to just say hello to Lorena.
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: They have nothing else to say.
• 35:55
  Speaker 4: It sounds like titillating radio.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: Well for them, definitely that I found her boops. Now
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: I'm a believer. Definitely it is all right. Uh well,
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: do one or two more.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Reggie from Detroit writes in and I had to get
• 36:12
  Speaker 3: Reggie in here because he emails pretty much every week
• 36:14
  Speaker 3: because that Ben and Danny one, are you guys planning
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: to get rich by suing Google? And then he sent
• 36:20
  Speaker 3: the story that happened the other day here Danny where
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: Meta and YouTube you see this?
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: They lost.
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: They're ordered to pay three million dollars to a woman
• 36:32
  Speaker 3: who sued them for social media addiction.
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: How great is a jury. Imagine who's on this jury,
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: all these these geniuses a.
• 36:43
  Speaker 3: Jury and Zanella found the Meta which is meta, and Google,
• 36:49
  Speaker 3: which is you know same, It's all the YouTube Google,
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: It's all in the same umbrella. They found them libel
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: in a lawsuitent of a social media addiction among users users,
• 37:01
  Speaker 3: and they were able to prove that the things they
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: use are designed to convince you to come back, uh
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: and not.
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: You know, just keep checking your phone and all that stuff.
• 37:13
  Speaker 3: So, yeah, Reggie, if this is the way, shouldn't everyone
• 37:19
  Speaker 3: sue everyone's addicted to their phones?
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 37:22
  Speaker 5: They Whenever the jury was given a break, they all
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: went and stuck their face and their phones.
• 37:28
  Speaker 3: Checking out Instagram booty models. So you're like, see what's
• 37:31
  Speaker 3: going on? I got some onlyfan models over here. I
• 37:32
  Speaker 3: gotta see what's going on. Man, let me alone.
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: Come on, what are you bothering me for?
• 37:37
  Speaker 6: Uh?
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: La la la la?
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: What else we got? There's some good ones this week?
• 37:42
  Speaker 3: Fred from Fullerton, how about that we dominate San Antonio
• 37:46
  Speaker 3: and Fullerton?
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: We do? Fred says Ben.
• 37:49
  Speaker 3: Next time you're in New York, are you going to
• 37:51
  Speaker 3: be going to have your your chocolate cocktail?
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: And then he sent me this.
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: There's a steakhouse in New York, which is my brother
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: lives in Manhattan. One thousand dollars hot chocolate top with
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: a gold leaf, thousand dollars per glass at this steakhouse
• 38:13
  Speaker 3: in New York. And this is the latest example, Danny,
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: of what they say on Wall Street. Get that dumb money,
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: Get that dumb money. Benjamin Steakhouse in Midtown, Manhattan has
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: introduced this new three tiered hot cocoa cocktail made of
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: high end spirits, gold leaf and a logo stamped chocolate
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: garnish sexual chocolate.
• 38:42
  Speaker 1: Well, if it was sexual chocolate, that we want to be.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: But it's available at both of their restaurants forty first
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: Street location and the sister venue which is called something Else.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: So Benjamin Steakhouse in Midtown, Well, it is kind of
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: like the Dodgers. Do you see that story? And I
• 38:59
  Speaker 3: was open day was the other day, Danny with the
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: Dodgers and everyone in baseball. Actually it was back on
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: Wednesday and then Thursday for most everyone else, but the Dodgers,
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: the most expensive team in baseball. For a family of
• 39:15
  Speaker 3: four to go to a Dodger game, cheapest tickets pay
• 39:19
  Speaker 3: for parking the whole thing over four hundred dollars to
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: just go to a random game against the Rockies and
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: that only one hot dog and you drink.
• 39:28
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's probably more like five to seven hundred dollars
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: to be honest.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Dodgers, and I love the Dodgers and all that.
• 39:36
  Speaker 3: They just have no shame though, Like the Gugenheim group
• 39:39
  Speaker 3: that owns the Dodgers, they're just like they don't They
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: don't even concern themselves with trying to keep prices reasonable.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: And they make so much money from what I've heard, as.
• 39:50
  Speaker 3: I understand it, with all the Japanese advertising from Otani
• 39:55
  Speaker 3: that he's brought in, all the major companies in Japan
• 39:59
  Speaker 3: that are sponsors.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: The Dodgers, the tickets are just extra money.
• 40:03
  Speaker 3: They get the TV money and the Japanese money cover
• 40:07
  Speaker 3: all their bills and they make a profit.
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: It's just making more and more and more and more
• 40:12
  Speaker 1: and more money. I'm saying, it's business, that's what you
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: got to do.
• 40:15
  Speaker 3: I get all that, but still, you know, you don't
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: you don't have to stick it. I mean, and there's
• 40:21
  Speaker 3: people I don't know how some of these people were
• 40:23
  Speaker 3: Dodger fan. Some of my people, I know, you know,
• 40:25
  Speaker 3: they got regular jobs. They're not they're not making a
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: ton of money, and they must be spending all over
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: the money on Dodger tickets.
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: It's wild, it really is. But hey, there you go,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: we'll get out on that. Danny. Thank you so much.
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: It's been a lot of fun the last couple of years.
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it. I don't know what I'll see it.
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: I never see it.
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: You're what you want to have it more than a
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: couple of years.
