• 3:39
  Speaker 1: MLB postseason live on Fox 1. So our lead story
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: this hour, we're going to go to the NFL. We
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: had an NFL game Thursday night. The Cleveland Browns, believe
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: it or not, won a game over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Yeah,
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: it does happen. Actually, the Browns have won a few
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: over recent years against the Pittsburgh Steelers. And the Atlanta
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Braves won the baseball game. They've advanced. But our lead
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: this hour is from the power department in Los Angeles,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. Off to the disastrous 0-3 start. They entered
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: 2026 based on the gambling market as a team to
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: watch to make a big Super Bowl run. And instead,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: they're running towards the toilet bowl. And they have now
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: opened the door to chatter. Chatter about a coaching change
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: with Jim Harbaugh being on the hot seat. I don't
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: know if you saw any of this or not. Perhaps not. Now,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: my dealings with the Chargers, and I go back to
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: their days in San Diego, they've always been a tightwad franchise,
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: the Chargers. It's always been a tightwad operation. So in
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: order for them to get rid of Harbaugh, they'd have
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to cut one of those giant checks because he's got
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of money left on. So it's A long
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: shot that he gets let go. That being said, that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: being said, we are hearing now, if you didn't see this,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: perhaps not, that Jim Harbaugh's potential availability has already generated
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: some buzz. You can almost hear it. Yeah, there's a
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: little buzz around college football, the speculation machine. And some
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: of the mid-level teams to lower level in the Big
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Ten are in the Southeastern Conference and some of those other, like,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: you know, ACC, Big 12, they are, like, sniffing around. Yeah,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: they're sniffing. And so that is a good jumping-off point.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Let us discuss the question. How much stock do you
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: put in to Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh being let go
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: and then returning to collegiate football, the old Michigan man,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh? So I've got Oregon Trail. Spirit Halloween, and
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: James Bond. Agent 007. So we'll put all of these
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: things together, and we're going to get up on the ladder.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: We're going to climb to the very top of the ladder.
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: We're going to walk down to the right and then
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: up another ladder, and then we're going to get on
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: the very top of the soapbox. And that is where
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: we're going to go. So to lead off here, to
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: answer the question, how much stock do you put into
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh returning to college football? It
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: is a... Highly volatile penny stock. Highly volatile penny stock.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: I'm going to say less than a 5% chance, and
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: I'm never wrong about this. The NCAA built a 10-foot wall.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Build the wall. They built the wall. They built a
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: wall around Jim Harbaugh. And how did they do that? Well,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: they gave him, when he was leaving Michigan, a 10-year contract.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Show cause penalty that runs through the year 2038. And
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: it goes all the way to 2038, that penalty. And
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: any program who's desperate enough and horny enough to bring
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Jim Harbaugh in, that means they face a full season penalty.
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: meaning that you can sign Jim Harbaugh. He is allowed
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: to sign with any university. However, unless there's some kind
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: of legal wrangling that goes on, Harbaugh would sign and
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: then have to miss a season. He would also have
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: to deal with a bunch of rules and regulations that
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: other schools don't have to, as they would have government oversight,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: crippling restrictions in recruiting and practice time, travel.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: All that.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: And oh, by the way, by the time the show
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: cause penalty expires, Jim Harbaugh will be in his mid-70s.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: So his path back to a college campus, and it's
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: not going well right now in the NFL with the charges,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: but his path back to college, it's... It makes the
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Oregon Trail look like the ball pit at the McDonald's
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: down the street from your house. You've got a toll
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: booth there. There's some roadblocks, a giant sinkhole in the
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: middle of the highway, all of that stuff. So Jim
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Harbaugh is going to need a battery ram, some prayer beads,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and a very creative, sleazy attorney, which is not hard
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: to find. And so despite that, the search... executives, those
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: are the headhunters of college football, they are like, well, yeah,
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: we know. And it's, yeah, but, yeah, but, yeah, but,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: the yeah, but, rabbit, yeah, but, rabbit, yeah, but, yeah, but, yeah, but.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: They're like, yeah, but he's really good at college. He
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: won a championship at Michigan. He won at Stanford. And
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: there's always that one desperate school. It only takes one.
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: And I think, when I think of a school that
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: would be willing to add a guy like Harbaugh, you've
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: got to go below the Mason-Dixon line, southern fried football.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: That has SEC written all over it, that some highfalutin, big-time,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: deep-pocketed college football fan, if you know what I mean,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: will step in. Harbaugh could walk into an athletic department
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: wearing an NCAA ankle monitor and a sleazy booster would
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: still stand there and hand him the keys and the
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: deed to the football team. All right, furthermore, to La
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: La Land we go. To La La Land we go,
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: where the Chargers embattled offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, former head
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: coach of the Miami Dolphins, is stuck in the mire.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: And he has spoken. He took full responsibility. Mike McDaniel
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: taking full responsibility, former Dolphins coach, for the pathetic offense
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: of the L.A. football team called the Chargers, saying the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: problems ultimately fall on him. and the bolts are oh
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: and three they got another tough game this weekend oh
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: and three struggling to sustain drives and consistently generate points
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: justin herbert has completed less than 60 percent of his
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: passes he's got just three touchdowns four interceptions through three
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: games and he has consistently melted under pressure now a
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: lot of you love the fat shame that's on you
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: You blame the fat guys on the offensive line. Well,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: if it wasn't for the fat guys, he'd be really good.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: All right, shut up. Part of being a big-time quarterback
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: is still being able to produce even when you are
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: under siege. That's part of the... And McDaniel's message... Go
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: back to Mike McDaniel. His message is essentially, hey, blame me.
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I'm the guy. I'm 40. Blame me. That'll do. And
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: he's trying to be a human shield... to Justin Herbert
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: and the other players on offense. So the heat is rising.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: The heat is arising because Mike McDaniel was hired with
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: a lot of fanfare. We all saw the same stuff. Oh,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: this is going to be great. Put everything else aside.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: He's going to maximize Justin Herbert, the prince of the Chargers,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: God's gift to the quarterback position. He's going to make
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: everything better. He's going to modernize the offense. And instead
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: of modernizing the offense, the offense has been punch drunk.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Punch drunk. So here's the question. You got offensive coordinator
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Mike McDaniel, who is publicly taking ownership of the suck
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: bag charges offense. Just terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible, terrible. What
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: does this tell you? What does it tell you? So
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: I'll go first because you're not here and I have
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: the bully pulpit. So I'll go first. An NFL coach
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: is a lightning rod. No pun intended. And when the
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: storm hits and it's raining and hailing and thunder and
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: lightning and all that, he is supposed to get zapped first. Now,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: normally it's the head coach. In this case, it's the
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: offensive coordinator. And right now, Mike McDaniel is getting fried.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: He just checked every single box. If you look at
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: your accountability cliche bingo card, look at that. And right there,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: every single box was checked. So good job by him.
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: Got all of it. In addition, Mike McDaniel went down
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: to the local Spirit Halloween. He picked up a very
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: odd costume. He's doing some cosplay as the ShamWow guy
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: from years ago, trying to soak up all the criticism
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: and keep it away from the players. But, but, McDaniel,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: he's talking the talk while the Chargers are limping the walk.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: The Chargers offense, it's kind of like a plumbing project.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: where McDaniels is like, yeah, let me tell you, that's
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: actually sewage right there.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Okay, fix it.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Get out your wrench and get out your plumber's tools
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: and fix it. Why are you not fixing it? So
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: just because you've identified the problem does not mean you
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: are one inch closer to solving. And you're supposed to
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: be working out all the kinks, Get all those kinks,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: work them out. Right now, the offense with the Chargers,
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: it's like they're working at that. Remember that old store
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: called Kinko's? If you're old, you know what I'm talking about.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: So who cares that he takes responsibility? I don't care.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Do you care? I don't.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Fix it.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Go have some kombucha tea and fix it. Our last
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: thing here, to Cincinnati we go, where Bengals quarterback Joe
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Burrow recently pushed back on the viral statistic questioning his
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: late-game heroics, saying, Burrow, quote, I feel like I'm pretty
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: good in those moments, close quote. Well, good for you, Joe.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I'm glad that you feel like you're pretty good. The
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: statistics say something else. Joe Burrow, 34 times Cincinnati has
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: trailed in the final eight minutes of a game. And
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: out of those 35 games, how many has Joe Burrow
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: walked off the field a winner, winner, winner, chicken dinner?
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: The answer?
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: One.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Number one.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: One, one, one, one.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Number one. One, one, one, one. Number one. That stat
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: says Joe Burrow is 1-34 when Cincinnati trails in the
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: final eight minutes of a game. Now, the stat resurfaced
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: because the Bengals got the ball down, down against Cincinnati.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: They're late, had a chance. They were trying to get
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: in and win the game, and it didn't work out.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: With 2-15 remaining, they failed to complete the comeback. So
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. He says publicly he's very confident in himself
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: in crutch time. He said, quote, typically we're going to
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: try and get it done, close quote. All right, so
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: here's the question. You've got Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow saying
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: he feels pretty good in clutch situations. The numbers say
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the opposite, say otherwise. So what is your biggest takeaway
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: from the latest comments of Joe Burrow? So it appears
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: he's a little sleepy, a little sleepy. The Ministry of
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: Football Truth has officially spoken. Joe Burrow is clutch. Now,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: the numbers say he's not clutch. The eyeball test says
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: he's not clutch. However, when the Ministry of Football Truth
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: says something, that's all you need. He has the aura
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: of James Bond. James Bond and the cool swagger. The
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: victory cigars, the designer wardrobe, all that stuff to match.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: And Burrow certainly carries himself like a quarterback that you
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: would trust. And we've been supporters of Joe Burrow over
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: the years. There's just one tiny problem. The numbers complicate
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: pretty much everything. It's not like a little picture. 35
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: games is a lot of games. That's a lot of
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: games for Joe Burrow. And unfortunately, some of those fourth quarters,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: actually many of them, had ended long before he actually
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: diffused the bomb. Well, James Bond is supposed to diffuse
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the bomb. The bombity, bombity, bombity, bombity, bombity. The question
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: isn't whether or not Joe Burrow feels clutch. I feel clutch.
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: Whee! Whee!
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: It's how much the available evidence actually supports the label
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: and the borough that we know.
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: The borough that we know seems better than this. So
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: I would like to borrow the line from the man
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: that shot Liberty Valance, that old movie. When the legend
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: becomes the fact, you print the legend. In Joe Burrow's case,
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: somebody finally checked the box score, and now it's no
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: longer a bundle of laughs anymore. It is the Ben
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Maller Show as we roll on here through the overnight.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: If you'd like to be part, you can join us
• 17:11

• 17:34
  Speaker 1: for the Maller. Riddle of the day. That's right. You
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: heard me right. The Mallory riddle of the day. And
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: here is the Mallory riddle of the day. And it
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: is Brownie the elf. That is the mascot of the
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: Cleveland football team. Brownie the elf arrived at the game
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: against Pittsburgh dressed as blank. Again, Brownie the elf arrived
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: on Thursday night. For the NFL game there, he's the
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Browns mascot, and he arrived dressed as blank. That is
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: the Maller riddle of the day. The answer. We'll get
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: to it, and we will do it next.

• 19:00
  Speaker 1: And then I'm going home to the BBC, and they're
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: saying Jockovich instead of Jokovich. Right, because you can't say Jockovich.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: If you do, you know the blowback you're going to
• 19:10
  Speaker 4: get from the American audience.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: Right.

  Speaker 1: And a whole lot of this.

• 20:30
  Speaker 1: Your comments can and will be used against you in
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: the court of sports radio. So please act accordingly.
• 20:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: There you go. All right, back to it. And we'll
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: pay off the Mallor riddle of the day in a minute.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: Before we do that, though, I did want to mention this.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: Do you see what's going on over there at Nike?
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: They're getting cooked, apparently. Yeah, things are not going well
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: for the swoosh. I was reading some of the sports
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: business articles. Websites, I don't know why I would read those.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: They're pretty boring, but there was a big write-up on
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: what the hell happened to Nike. My entire life, Nike
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: has dominated everything. I killed it, right? Now, Lorraine is
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: from Oregon, so you're from the birthplace of Nike. Nike
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: revenue was down 4% from the prior quarter. Wall Street average,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: things are not going well. They hit their lowest level
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: in more than a decade. Stock is down roughly 45%
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: over at Nike year to date, and more than 76%
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: over five years. If you invested your money in Nike,
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: you've lost 76% of your money since then. And the
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: problem from what I read in one of these trade papers,
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: I think it was on Front Office Sports, is that
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: the sales in China... went down 22% year over year,
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: while North American revenue actually went up a little bit,
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: but the Chinese revenue went down, and they're going to
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: have to start laying people off over at Nike. They're
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: going to reduce the workforce over there, so they've got to...
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the radio world. That's what we do on radio.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: We just lay people off.
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: Anyway, it is the Ben Maller Show. Time to pay
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: off the riddle of the day. Here is the Maller
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: riddle of the day. And for those of you a
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: little slow in the back of the room, bad job
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: by you. Brownie the Elf. Now, Alf sent a photo.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: I used to have this great Brownie the Elf hat.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: I have a recreation of that hat that a listener
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: sent me, and I'm very happy to have that. I
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: can't find the original. I've moved a couple of times
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: since I had that hat. And it got lost in
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: the shuffle, which makes me sad that we don't have
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: that hat anymore. Meanwhile, though, Brownie the Elf is still
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: very much a thing. Arrived at the Thursday night NFL
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: game dressed up as blank. All right, what was Brownie
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: the Elf dressed up as? It is October now. It's
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: the season of Halloween. King Roy says, dressed like Robbie
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: the Mariner fit. Is that his... That looks like a
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: garbage pail kid card of Robbie the Mariner fan. Is
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: that the Robbie the Mariner garbage pail kid card?
• 23:21
  Speaker 4: No.
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: All right. JT the Wingman says, Phylexis, America's favorite drag
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: queen caller.
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: Don't send me that photo ever again. Luke the Vending
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: Guy said a masseuse to honor his quarterback. He-Man from
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Courtesy Flusher. That does not look like He-Man to me.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: Timmy from Busco, Indiana says he was dressed as Brownie
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: the Gargoyle. Appropriate. There's some gargoyles in downtown Cleveland when
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: I was there years ago. Brownie the Elf was dressed
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: as Morris Day from OG Art Puffin. What do we
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: have here? Mr. Irrigation says a he-she drag queen. A
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: little drag queen mascot. Alf the Alien O'Piner went with Mr. Whipple.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: That's his answer. Oh, look at that. You found my cameo.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: I am on cameo. That's my cameo photo. I took
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: that during the pandemic right there. It's a five-year-old photo.
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: At least.
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: What do we have? Mark the Walker said Weinstein is
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: the answer. Okay, I see what you did there, Mark
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: the Walker. Batman from Dallas. He went with Batman, Batman.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Rebecca the Ram fan says Brownie the Elf dressed like
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: an anvil with a blowtorch. A giant cootie from Johnny Q.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: That's his answer. Kathy in Madison says dressed as Phylexis
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: the Drag Queen. What else do we have? Captain Crunch,
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: guessed by Filler Up Phil. That's his answer. What else?
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: Page down. I can't read that. All right, that's enough.
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: Do you have an answer, Lorena, to the Malheur Riddle
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: of the Day? It is not a night nurse, guessed
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: by Tattoo Baker. Not a night nurse. I was going
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: to guess a knight in shining armor. Is it a
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: knight in shining armor? Is that correct?
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: No. No.
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: Turns out that Brownie the Elf dressed up as Prince.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: The musician Prince. I have no reason why. I don't
• 25:19
  Speaker 1: know why. Is there some kind of event with Prince?
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: I know the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: in Cleveland and all that. I don't know. I didn't
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: dig that deep into it. I just saw a clip
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: making the rounds that had brownie the elf dressed up
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: as prince kathy and madison would like to let all
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: the affiliates know kathy says hey i just switched i'm
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: listening now to the ben mallard show on the rat
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: wrat in new jersey that's pretty cool they're called the
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: rat i didn't even know that i wonder if they
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: have any merch let me see here that'd be a
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: cool like hat or shirt i think radio stations stopped
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: doing merch a long time ago and i don't know
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: why When I got into radio, we used to have
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: so much merch. T-shirts and bumper stickers and keychains. Well,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: this is a different type of radio, too. Like, smaller towns,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: you know, they go and do remotes all over the
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: city and give away fun prizes. I don't think they
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: do anymore. Yeah, they do in my hometown. My radio
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: station still does it. By the way, according to this,
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: the Rat is a music station, so I don't think
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: you're listening to the Rat. Unless you're listening to... acoustic
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: holiday music or something like that. I don't know what
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the hell's going on there. All right, I got it wrong.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: That's fine. But it's a good name for a radio station,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: whether we're on the radio station or not. It's not
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: a bad name. Let's go to the phone, or the phones,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: I should say, and a man who we've been trying
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: to find for some time. Well, actually, I have a
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: golden ticket first. Let's go to the golden ticket. We
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: now go to the Twin Cities, a man cashing his
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: golden ticket. Because I've got a golden ticket. I've got
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: a golden ticket. He spends most of his time sleeping.
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: When he's awake, he calls the Ben Maller Show the man,
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: the myth, the legend. Make way for Hollering James. Hello,
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: Hollering James.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: James. Ask Lorena. Oh, she never met me, but you did.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Ask me what?
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Ask you if I'm more than a man than Prince.
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: What a man, what a man, what a man, what
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: a mighty good man. That was not that funny. There's
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: nothing funny about it. Lorraine don't say anything. You idiots
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: laugh at her. Everything she says is unbelievable. It's crazy.
• 27:46
  Speaker 3: You know what, Ben? That's because Tammy doesn't love me anymore.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Oh, here we go.
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, my God. I was going to ask Lorena for advice,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: but tonight's not advice night.
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah, tonight is not the instant advice line. This morning
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: is not the instant advice line.
• 28:02
  Speaker 3: No, and Ben, I got a question for you. When
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: are the Vikings going to get beat? What if they
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: get beat by Miami?
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: If they get beat by Miami, they should fire the
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: entire coaching staff.
• 28:16
  Speaker 3: If they get beat by Miami, I'll tell you what,
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: I'll be scared to call a show because I won't
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: hear from Sammy.
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: So Coop is now going to buy a Miami Dolphins
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: shirt now. He's like, wait a minute.
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: How's that sound?
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: You don't have enough money. Those jackets are like $ 700.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: I must have all my EBT money.
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: When that comes in, I don't know when my EBT
• 28:41
  Speaker 3: money comes in. Somebody crashed the website. So they took
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: all that away. I bet we don't have that problem.
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: That would devastate our show if they take away the
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: EBT money. We'll have no one who has any money
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: listening to the show. There's no show.
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: There's no phone. We'll be next.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: We actually have a promo running. The Ben Maller Show
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: supports EBT, so we have that right here. So we
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: have that on the promo.
• 29:05
  Speaker 3: If you support that, Ben, I'll be a big supporter
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: of you. I'll send you more shirts.
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: Oh, that's great.
• 29:12
  Speaker 3: For another meet and greet. And I got a big Jack.
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: I got a big Mad Jack. Because Mad Jack's mad
• 29:19
  Speaker 3: at me right now.
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: Well, why'd you piss him off? You shouldn't piss off
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: your friends.
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: I said something about his wife from the meeting, the
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: AA meeting.
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: What?
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: Wait, wait, wait.
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: So you have like three friends. I don't want to know.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: He doesn't do a good job. said your friend's wife
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: who runs AA meetings does not do a good job.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: That doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, James.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: I had to. She runs the show. She thinks she's
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: all that. She's not all that. No woman on this
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: earth is all that bad. I am dry. That's okay
• 30:02
  Speaker 3: by me.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: James, you've spent 15 years worshiping Tammy in Montana. You
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: now worship Lorena, and you just said no woman is worshiping.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: What are you doing? All you've done is worship women
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: your entire time you've been with the show.
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but my heart is broken, Ben.
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: Okay, I know. All right. Well, I'm going to let
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: you go. Go away.
• 30:23
  Speaker 3: I hope the Vikings beat Miami.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: Okay. All right. All right. Thank you.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: Jeez.
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: Calm down, James. Calm down. It's not that difficult up ahead.
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: The Vikings have the Dolphins. That's a win. Dolphins, it's
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: like a forfeit by Miami. Then New Orleans. They're not
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: that good. Indianapolis, a mediocre team. I guess the first
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: legitimate shot to lose would be against the Lions in
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Week 8 or the Bills in Week 9 for the Vikings.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Let's go back to the phones. A guy that has
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: not called in some time. I don't know why. We
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: find out right now. We go to the great state
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: of Nebraska and the Black Irishman. Hello, Black Irishman. Welcome. No,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: it's not my fault.
• 31:13
  Speaker 3: I'm in Council Bluffs, Nebraska. Don't play. I mean, Council Bluff, Iowa.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: My bad.
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: Oh, I thought you were in Nebraska. You moved to Iowa?
• 31:22
  Speaker 3: No, I had to move across the river, man. It's
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: a long story. I apologize.
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: What?
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: Did you get arrested?
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: No, I just had to move away.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, you know what hat I'm wearing
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: right now? I'm wearing that really cool Creighton Blue Jays
• 31:42
  Speaker 1: hat that you sent me a couple years ago. It's
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: really cool. No, no, I love that. This is my
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: favorite hat, this Creighton.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: Blue Jays hat that you sent me.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: No, no, I like my imaginary hat better than my
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: real hat. I like my imaginary size 8. It fits perfectly.
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: What is happening right now? What are you drinking, Black Irishman?
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: What are you drinking?
• 32:11
  Speaker 6: The usual.
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: The vodka. Don't play.
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: Do you have us on speakerphone?
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Is your daughter actually sleeping now at night and not
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: staying awake?
• 32:23
  Speaker 3: No, she's up.
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: What?
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: Say hi to him, man. Say hi to the rain. No,
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: I'm serious. You asked for it, right? Say hi to Mr. Miller.
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: Hi.
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: Daddy, get that phone away from me.
• 32:40
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to sleep.
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: Did you just wake her up? Why'd you wake her up, dude?
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: You shouldn't wake your daughter up. What's up with it? No,
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: she said you woke her up. She just said you
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: woke her up.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: You are completely hammered. My God.
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: All right. I....
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: I got to go. Thank you for calling, though. It's
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: great to talk to you. It's an honor. The Black Irishman. Kids,
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: stay off the vodka. That's a lot of vodka. Real quick,
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: let's say hello to the man. Well, this is not
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: the man, the myth, the legend. See, this is the icon,
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: the institution, and partially a legend, the one and only
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: moving man with the mobile Mallor billboard on the highways
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: and byways of North America, the genuine article. I've seen
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: it myself. multiple times, and we say hello to a
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: man who is now, there he is right there, moving man, Matt.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: Hello, Matt.
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: Welcome.
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: What's going on? I don't know how I'm going to
• 33:48
  Speaker 5: follow those two calls. That was like murderer's row, like
• 33:51
  Speaker 5: 27 Yankees right there.
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: That's right. He's going to murder my career.
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah. We're actually going to have to start prefacing that.
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: With 1927 Yankees soon.
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 34:02
  Speaker 5: Anyway, screw the Yankees. We all know the Red Sox
• 34:06
  Speaker 5: shouldn't have been a playoff team if they didn't get
• 34:08
  Speaker 5: hot in the middle of the season. You know, we're
• 34:11
  Speaker 5: going to move on. We'll go on to, let's hope
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: the Rams murder another quarterback this weekend.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: Have you purchased your J.J. McCarthy jersey?
• 34:23
  Speaker 6: I will not be doing anything of that nature.
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: You were very happy at the beginning of the year.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: I feel bad. After the Cowboy game, you were a
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: little giddy. You felt a little something. You felt a
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: little tingle. And then they had to play the next game.
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: Here's the thing.
• 34:36
