• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Wowie! Kazowie! It's our number one hour one. Ready for
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: some fun. It is the Ben Maller Show as we
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: are side by side on this fifth day of October.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Happy Monday to you. We stayed up all night providing
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: you with fresh pod. You get a second bite out
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: of the apple if you didn't stay up late. And
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: here the live show. Well, here in our number one,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: we start with the Sunday night NFL game. As it
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: goes to the home team, the better story, though, in
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: the losing locker room, where should Lions coach Dan Campbell's
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: concern level be on the Maller panic meter 1-10 after
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Detroit was absolutely rushed here, there, and everywhere by that
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: Carolina offense? And are Bryce Young and the Panthers for real?
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Are you buying the Carolina Panthers after a dominating offensive performance?
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: against Detroit. And does anybody actually believe elsewhere that the
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Ravens quarterback, Lamar Jackson, is just day-to-day, even though he
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: left the stadium in a walking booty? We'll talk about
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: all of that and more right now. Here we go. Geronimo,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: it's our number one, and it's yours right now. A
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: battle of the cats. That was what they were serving
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: up on Sunday night's NFL game. Welcome in the beginning
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: of another hour and another week of the Ben Maller Show.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: We are in the air everywhere, howling at the abyss.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: As we are a whole different animal, coast to coast,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: border to border, and beyond, on the vast and irresistibly
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: powerful microphones of FSR emanating live from the mouth, the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: big mouth of the radio dial. We're hanging out here.

  Speaker 1: the brand new week as we slide into the fifth
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: day of October, a very happy day.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Monday.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: Monday, Monday, Monday. And our lead, sorry, don't bury the lead,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: my man! We're not going to bury the lead. We'll
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: not bury the lead. A little catch-scratch fever there in Charlotte.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Carolina does not normally get to play Sunday night games.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: That's reserved for the good teams. Somebody clearly effed up
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: at the NFL putting the Carolina Panthers on. The big
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: stage there, the big primetime stage. And so we head
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: off to the Hornets' nest there, the Queen City. And
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: that was where the NFL wrapped up the Sunday portion
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: of the card. Under the bright lights, we made an
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: editorial decision that the NFL is king over divisional round
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: MLB playoff action. We know what keeps the lights on.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: And there are many lights in this building I'm in
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: right now, in this studio that I'm in. So we
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: have to keep those lights powered and fueled. So we'll
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: start with the NFL. Jared Goff's Lions in a catfight.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Against Bryce Young and the Panthers in North Carolina. You
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: had Tirico and Collinsworth there on NBC yapping about this game.
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Were you watching? Were you distracted by the Atlanta Braves
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: getting the edge on the Dodgers? Even though the series
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: is tied up, the advantage goes to Atlanta. The series
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: does not start until the road team wins. Well, the
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: Braves have won a road game. But this is about football,
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: where Bryce Young, Bryce Young completing. 29 of 41 passes
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: for 329 yards. A couple of touchdowns. The Tet McMillan,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: and he had 14 catches for 192 yards. I'm told
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: that's good. Carolina, you looked at the injury report. We
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: handicapped the game. You look at the offensive line, guys out.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: You look at players all over the place injured. And
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: yet it didn't matter. That's why they play the games.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: It's not always the healthier team that wins. It's obviously
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: the team that plays better. And the Lions, we'll get
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to them in a sec, but Carolina, despite all the injuries,
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: and they were in comfortable control of this game as
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: Trouba Hubbard ran 20 times, 122 yards, a season high.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: It's week four worth the quarter mark, roughly, of the
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: NFL season. A couple of touchdowns for Chuba Hubbard as
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Carolina gets back to 500. They're 2-2. They scored six
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: straight possessions. On six straight possessions they scored. After punting
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: on the opening drive, it was, all right, score, score, score, score, score, score.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: That's how that went. All right, so the question, it's
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: a rather obvious question, the better story in the losing
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: locker room, so we'll jump off at that point. So
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: here's the question. Where should Lions coach Dan Campbell's concern
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: level be using the Maller panic-o-meter approach? One to ten
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: on the Malheur Panic-O-Meter. Where should Dan Campbell be? So
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I've got the streets of Pamplona. We've got the University
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: of Phoenix and RoboCop. And we will combine all of
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: these things together and we will remind you that we
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: run a tight ship. A very tight ship here. So A,
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: the Malheur Panic-O-Meter. panic-o-meter, which is never wrong. The Mallard
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: panic-o-meter is never wrong about these things. On a scale
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: of 1 to 10, we are at a solid 8.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: A snowman. A solid 8 for the Detroit Lions, and
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: here's why. Not only are they at an 8, somebody's
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: actually smashed the glass on top of the Mallard panic-o-meter,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: which is not a good sign. Not a good sign
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: there at all. So Dan Campbell's squad is essentially playing
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: bad team bingo. Now, what is bad team bingo in
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: the NFL? You've never played? They have it every weekend
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: at the church. No? All right, so bad team bingo.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Can't tackle. Check. Cannot block very effectively. Check, check. Dumb penalties. Check, check, check.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Special teams disasters. I don't know. Missing an extra point
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: or two? Why not? What the hell? Bingo! There you go.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: That's the Detroit Lions. And they are returning to the
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Lions I remember back in my... My youth. The Detroit Lions.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: A team we only saw on Thanksgiving. That is where
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: this Lions team is headed. Dan Campbell had a lot
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: of success early on. They were in the Final Four.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: The Lions. And now you look at where this team
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: is and where they're headed. It's a hot mess. It
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: is a hot mess. They helped. The Detroit Lions helped.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young looked like he was back in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Playing,
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: I don't know, Michigan directional institution. For the homecoming game,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: it was basically seven on seven. It was like summer
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: camp for Bryce Young against the Detroit Lions secondary. Now,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: on a positive note, Because I'm not just all negative
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: talk show guy. I will be positive. On a positive note,
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: and I'll be Benny Brightside here, Detroit's tackling technique has
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: them now ready to run around the streets of Pamplona.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: The running of the Bulls. Ole, ole, ole, ole. Matadors, Matadors. Yes,
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: and after you, sir. Come on, sir, after you, please. Tackling?
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: You're supposed to tackle? What are you talking about, tackle?
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know, tackling in football? Why would you tackle? Now,
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: the good news, if there is any, and there's really
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: not much, Dan Campbell's defense, by the way, I'm pretty
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: sure they would not be able to tackle a breakfast
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: burrito if you put handles on the breakfast burrito. It's ridiculous.
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: And we've seen plenty of bad defenses. I'm not going
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: to sit here and say, well, the Lions are the
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: worst defense we've ever seen. I'm not going to say that.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: I'm not. But three games in, three out of the
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: four games, not all four, three out of the four,
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: the Lions have given up. 440 or more yards of
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: offense to the opposition. That is not an anomaly. At
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: this point, we're now four games into the season. That
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: is not an anomaly. That is your identity, is what
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: that is at this particular point for the Lions, giving
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: up 32 points per game. Now, I didn't play in
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the NFL. I think that blows. There she blows. Now,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: that means that Jared Goff, who at times looks like
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: he's completely clueless out there, but Jared Goff... has to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: play like vintage Dan Marino from like 1987 or something
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: like that just to keep the lights on. Now, the
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: good news is up next is Arizona. The bad news
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: is the way the Lions secondary is playing, they will
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: turn Jacoby Brissett into Jake the Snake Plumber 2.0, the
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: way they're playing defense right now. My God. All right,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: now to the other side, to the Carolina side of things,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: the Panthers into the win column here. So they're back to.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: 500, 2-2.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: And the overreaction machine. We have cranked up the lever
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: on the overreaction machine. The question, are Bryce Young and
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: the Carolina Panthers for real? Is this legit? Yeah.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: Calm down. Take a breath. Now, I will point out
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: that the reason people think this, and the only reason
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: you should consider the Carolina Panthers legit, is... Remax Realtors. Location, location, location.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You feel me on that? Yes.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: NFC South. Carolina is a contender because of geography, not
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: because of the talent of the roster, the coaching, or
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: anything else. It's all because of the geography. And location, location, location, location.
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: So the NFC South, we're pretty sure, is why they
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: invented the phrase Somebody has to win it. If the Saints,
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: they're no good. Atlanta's not really that good. Carolina, you
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: go down the whole division. It's all Tampa. Please, come on.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Not good. Not good. It's the NFL's participation trophy district.
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: It has a very liberal admission standard. It's kind of
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: like saying, hey, I'm going to college. Where are you going?
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I'm going to the University of Phoenix. Oh, that's great. Yeah,
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: everyone gets in. Just cut a check. You're in. There's
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: a bunch of schools like that. I'm just using them
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: as an example. But Carolina is not a heavyweight contender.
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: They're certainly not that. And you know what they are?
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: They're like the guy that gets into the nightclub because
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: they know the bouncer. So they let him in. But
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: you really shouldn't be allowed in. You know, you're just
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: like a slob. You're bedraggled. You smell. You shouldn't be
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: allowed in there. But you knew a guy. And it's
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: not what you know. It's who you know. You knew
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: a guy. And Bryce Young, don't get me started on
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Bryce Young. Listen, Bryce, is he as bad as he was?
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: Hell no! Of course not. But Bryce Young went from
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: somebody called the warranty department to, okay, maybe we need
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: to just keep the receipt. We'll put it away in
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: our files. But that's where we are. So... You don't
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: want to get too intoxicated on a dominating performance against
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: the Detroit football team. You don't want to do that.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: The Lions defense, at this point, it's like going to
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: Costco on a Saturday. They're the Costco sample lady. You
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: get a sample. You get a sample. You get a sample.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Everyone gets a sample, right? Everybody gets a little something
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: from the Costco, that babushka at Costco that gives out
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: the samples. Come on now. And Carolina gave up. Here's
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: why they're totally fine. They gave up 59 points to
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: the Bears in Week 1. They also lost to Cleveland.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: It's hard to take you seriously when you've done those
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: two things. Am I wrong? I don't believe I am.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I don't believe I am there. The resume has more
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: mood swings than a daytime soap opera. Not that there's
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: many of those left either. But better than awful does
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: not automatically mean great. Now, the last one, we're going
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to move away from the Sunday night game. We have
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: another major injury. As I was discussing the bowels of
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, down the hall, around the corner where
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: there's a loud thumping sound as there's some batteries that
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: are being cooled down in the very back of the
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: building here. And that's where I go to kind of
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: hang out in the back. And DeSegar came in. He's
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: long gone. He's probably sleeping by now. Anyway, DeSegar came.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: We were talking about how all these coaches, out of
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: an abundance of caution, protected their quarterbacks and their star
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: players during those exhibition games. They didn't want them to
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: get hurt. No, no, no, no, no. How's that working out? Snap, crackle, pop,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: the official breakfast cereal. Rice Krispies of the NFL. It
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: has happened again. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson down for the count.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: O-M-J injured his ankle late in the first half. Baltimore
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: had a cupcake game with the Tennessee Titans last And
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: Lamar did not return in the second half. Jackson was
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: hurt when someone named Jermaine Johnson, apparently plays football for
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: the Tennessee Titans, defensive end, landed on the leg of
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Oh, my leg! Right there during a sack.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: Lamar finished with 222 yards passing and two touchdowns. That
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: was all in the first half. As Baltimore had a
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: 17-point lead, then Tennessee Titans got a backdoor cover at
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: the end, partially because of the fact that the quarterback
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: change took place there. Backup Tyler Huntley came in, and
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: while he completed eight of nine passes, the object of
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the game is to score, and the Baltimore football team
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: scored as many points after halftime as UNI scored. They
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: got bupkis. This is a squad douche in the second
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: half of that game. Coach Jesse Minter said the Ravens
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: didn't know enough about the injury. His nose was growing
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: while he said that. Jackson later was seen leaving the
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: stadium in a booty, a walking boot for Lamar Jackson.
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: And he out. See you later there. Bye-bye. The NFL media,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: this is my favorite part of the story. So the
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: NFL media labeled this a day-to-day injury. So he missed
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the entire second half. Lamar Jackson was seen leaving in
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: a booty. And it's just a day-to-day thing. That's it. Okay.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: So the question, does anyone in the room, even you
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: in the back of the room, does anyone in the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: room here actually believe that Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is day-to-day?
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: No.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: You'd have to be a special kind of dummy to
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: think that. We consulted with Dr. Mallard. To get to
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: the bottom of this. Now, not a real doctor. Just
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: plays one on the radio. And Lamar Jackson has been
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: diagnosed with a grade number one case of NFL injury
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: report baloney. It's a bunch of baloney. That's it. Now,
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: the NFL media loves day to day because it sounds
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: somewhat informative while telling you absolutely nothing. Day-to-day. It's the
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: league code for we have no idea, and even if
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: we do know, we're not telling you. So go pound sand, loser.
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: That's essentially what they're saying. So you can call it
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: day-to-day if you want, but you can also call a
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: root canal a vigorous teeth-cleaning technique. You can call it
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: that as well. So Lamar Jackson left the stadium dressed
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: like Robocop From the ankle down, anyway. At least from
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: the ankle down. And the Ravens, of course, are like, well,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: we don't really know. It's all precautionary. But the boot.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: Where's the boot? The boot is not a fashion accessory
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: for Lamar Jackson. So if Lamar's ankle is fine, why
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: is he preparing for combat duty? I don't believe the
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: Ravens are a military operation. So I don't know about that. Now,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: we believe, though, Dr. Chow. When in doubt, go with Dr.
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: Chow.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: The former Charger doctor back in the day, who's now
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: a social media doctor. Can you imagine going to medical
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: school and becoming a social media doctor? What a world.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: What a world. I love all the doctors. There's a
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: lot of doctors on there. Nobody pays attention. They make
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: a ton of money, these doctors. They're loaded. And yet,
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: they're not famous. There's very few doctors that are famous.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: And these doctors, these online doctors, they want to get
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: a little cred, so they report injury status. They actually
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: practice medicine on X, what used to be called Twitter there,
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: doing their thing. It's crazy. Anyway, so Dr. Chow is
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: pretty good about this stuff. He watched the video. He said,
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: based on video review, Lamar Jackson suffered a mild high
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: ankle eversion sprain. Essentially a grade one high ankle sprain.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: That means he'll likely be out for three weeks, two
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: to three weeks, most likely there, unless they give him
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: the good stuff. He goes down to the Candyman, gets
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: the good stuff there. They inject him with a giant
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: needle out of a horror movie from the 1960s, and
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: then you're good. All right, this is the Ben Maler Show.

  Speaker 1: and will be used against you in the court of
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: sports radio. So please act accordingly. Curmudgeon Wayne in Duluth
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: says not a single statement about the 4-0 Vikings, Maller.
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: You're just filled with negativity. Well, if you think that's legit,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: that is sustainable. Curmudgeon Wayne, the Minnesota Vikings 4-0 start.
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: Good luck. I'd like to sell you some waterfront property
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: there in Omaha, Nebraska. Not sustainable. And what happened to
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: all you people? My friends in Minnesota, you all told me.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: You said, watch out, Kyler Murray. Kyler Murray is going
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: to unlock a higher level for the Minnesota Vikings. That
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: they were being held back. They didn't have good quarterback play.
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: But now Kyler Murray was going to be the guy.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: He was going to get it done. And so, yeah,
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Vikings are 4-0. And how did Kyler Murray do out there?
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: Let's see.
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: Mediocre.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: How many touchdown passes did– let's see, how many did
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: he have? Let's see. Not one. Oh, yeah, the answer's
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: not one. He had no touchdown passes. Zero. Zippo. Nothing. Yeah,
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: I know, right? Pretty wild. Pretty wild and crazy. What
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: else do we have? Let's see. I can't read that.
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: I'm getting some threatening messages from our friend at the
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Walmart in northern Minnesota. He's over there. He's threatening because
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: he didn't like what I said about the Carolina Panthers.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: But I don't see him on my board. So it's
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: like he's a faux tough guy. Here's the fun fact
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: of the hour. This goes out to curmudgeon Wayne. You
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: want the fun fact of the hour? Here we go.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: Fun fact. Well, congratulations to the 2026 Minnesota Vikings, the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: second NFL team in the last 90 years to win
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: three straight games in a season while scoring one or
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: fewer scrimmage touchdowns across the three games. The other team
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: to do it, the 1994 Pittsburgh Steelers. So you got
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: to go all the way back. I mean, I was
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: a child in 1994. 1994 Pittsburgh Steelers with Bill Cower
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: as the coach. And that team, led by legends. Like,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: I believe Bam Morris was on that team. If you're old,
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: you know who Bam Morris was. Barry Foster. Legends of
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Steelers gone by and all that. And who could forget
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: the outstanding quarterback play by Neil O'Donnell and Mike Tomczak.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: So that's the comp for the Minnesota Vikings. They are
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: one of two teams that have been this blah on
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: offense and yet have managed to end up winning three
• 23:53
  Speaker 1: in a row as the lowly Miami Dolphins. They didn't
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: do much anything, but they hung around. They did get
• 23:59
  Speaker 1: the backdoor cover there. If you're a gambler, you know
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. What else do we have? Let's see.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: Page down. Skip over that one. Perito and the Raider
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: guys there. I guess back to reality now. You guys,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: you can call up if you want to apologize. It's fine.
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: I was right. Raiders are frauds. Played a good team
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: and lost. So there you go. Played a good team
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: and lost. Craziness. What else do we have? Monkey Biz Doug.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: He says, off topic. He says, this week's fantasy matchup
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: was a straight kick in the baby maker. A loss
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: to a certified turd who didn't even have a quarterback
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: on the roster. I don't want to talk about your
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: fantasy football team. I don't. Do not, do not, do not,
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: do not. What else do we have? I can't read that.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: Gunner did say, you crossed the line calling them bad.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to the phones. And let's see here.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Let's start out with the man who had a near-death
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: experience in Louisiana. And he is apparently alive. I see
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: his name on my board right now. Let's give it up.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: to a man who dodged the Grim Reaper, our friend
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: Anthony in Louisiana.
• 25:09
  Speaker 5: Hey, Bean.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: You're alive. You're alive. You're alive.
• 25:13
  Speaker 6: Guess what, Bean?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: What's that?
• 25:15
  Speaker 5: I'm going to go get it done Thursday. They delayed
• 25:19
  Speaker 5: it again.
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: It's for this Thursday, 18th Thursday.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: You told us it was last Thursday. Yeah, they keep
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: changing it. I told you they were going to do
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: that again. What kind of insurance do you have? I mean,
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: I shouldn't name it on the air, but my God,
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: that must be the worst insurance ever, Anthony. This is
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: like the fourth time they've moved the operation?
• 25:39
  Speaker 6: It's for this Thursday at 1030.
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: You said that last Thursday. Okay, so now I don't
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: feel bad because I didn't call you, but I don't
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: feel bad because I didn't need to call you because
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: you're fine. You didn't have the operation. You're good to go, right?
• 25:52
  Speaker 6: It's for this Thursday at 1030.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: All right, 10.30. Lorena might be flying down to comfort
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: you after that. There's a possibility.
• 26:01
  Speaker 5: No?
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: Or I'll be sleeping.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, either that. Yeah.
• 26:05
  Speaker 6: I love you.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: Hey, cuz.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: Wow. What up, Anthony? I thought he loved me. I
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: was excited. I got excited for a second. He does
• 26:12
  Speaker 1: love you, Ben. I don't know. Not as much as you.
• 26:14
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 26:15
  Speaker 5: Yes. How about the cowboy? They won today.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: I heard.
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Did I see it?
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: No.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: She's such a big Cowboy fan. She went out and
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: enjoyed her day. Didn't see a second of the Cowboy game. Yeah.
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: All right. Well, listen, Anthony, amazing. What a call yet again.
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: Thank you. I appreciate that. There, I hang up on you.
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: That's our friend Anthony in Louisiana. Yes. Dan writes in
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: from Parts Unknown. He says, Sean McVay was so excited
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: over the comeback win. How excited was he? Over the
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: former Super Bowl champion Jalen Hurts that he pulled out
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: the Maller victory giddy-up leap. Yeah, he did do a
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: little giddy-up thing there. Yeah. It's a quality win. Good
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: teams win games in the fourth quarter down the stretch.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: And I know I can see from your post there, Dan,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: you understand that, and it's a good job by you.
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Rams still not anywhere near hitting on all cylinders. Didn't
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: have Aaron Donald or Miles Garrett. How bad are the Eagles?
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: No Aaron Donald, no Miles Garrett, and the Rams go
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: out there and come back and shove it down, shove
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: that hoagie cheesesteak down the Eagles' throats. In the fourth quarter,
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: Shane in Des Moines writes in, says the Cowboys versus
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: the Texans might have mattered to some, but I'm praying
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: none of their fans call the show tonight. Their fans
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: are as boring as their team. Cowboy Dan is not
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: around anymore. I don't know what happened to him. Hopefully
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: he's still alive, but he doesn't call the show anymore.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: So that was always our Cowboy Victory Cigar guy. Cowboy Dan.
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: He would call. Fergdog writes in. He says, hey, Mailer. Ben,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: you're not going to attack Blake Snell for not even
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: lasting four innings, are you? That was the best three-and-two-thirds
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: inning start I've ever seen. Snellzilla deserves to be praised,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: not scorned. Well, if you want that, check in with
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: David Vasse, who's got his knee pads on for Blake Snell.
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: But you're not going to get that here. No, no, no.
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: Blake Snell, he is who we thought he was. And
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: if you want to crown him, crown his ass. We
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: will get to that next hour. We will get to
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: that next hour, I promise. Let's say hello to Jeff
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: in Denver. What's going on, Jeff?
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Welcome.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: It's been a while, Ben. I was just giving you
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: a fun fact for the evening.
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: I was looking to see if the Nuggets were playing.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I thought maybe they played a game last night or something.
• 28:40
  Speaker 6: They did start their preseason today, but it's preseason. How
• 28:45
  Speaker 6: do you feel about your Dodgers' chances being 1-1 now?
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: I'm not really that worried. They should be worried. I
• 28:53
  Speaker 1: don't have to worry. I don't play for the team.
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I do the show. This is going to blow you away.
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: I do the show, Jeff, whether they win or lose.
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: Whether somebody else wins the World Series, I still do
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the show. I have the talk show to do. It
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: doesn't affect my life at all.
• 29:06
  Speaker 6: Are you aware of the fact that the Dodgers organization,
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: 143 years old, Anytime they have won 100 games or more,
• 29:14
  Speaker 6: they have zero championships.
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: Zero.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Yes. And how many times have the Rockies won where
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: they lost 100 or more games? How many times have
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: they won the draft lottery or whatever? I mean, that
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: tells you what has happened, not what's going to happen.
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: And by the way, might I point out, based on that,
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: the Dodgers should not have won last year because, well,
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: they hadn't back-to-back. They hadn't been a team since the
• 29:36
  Speaker 1: Yankees to win back-to-back, so they shouldn't have won last year.
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: But they didn't win 100th.
• 29:40
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. Okay, so why don't they just forfeit
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: and they just go home right now, go on vacation,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: their vacation home in Florida or whatever. How about that?
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: Because Jeff called up from Denver and says they can't
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: win because they won 100 games. Okay, give up. It's
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: all over. They're absolutely porked, the Dodgers, because Jeff called
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: up from Denver with a fun fact.
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: They should have tanked on Sunday.
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: Yes, they clearly should have lost. Brilliant. Genius. What are
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: you drinking? What are you doing?
• 30:12
  Speaker 6: 143 years, Ben.
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God. 143 years. And how many times did
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: they win 100 games? Go ahead. Give me the number.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: What's the number?
• 30:23
  Speaker 6: I'm not exactly sure.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: You have no idea. You have no idea what the
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: number is. Therefore, you lose. You get nothing.
• 30:31
  Speaker 6: Ben, three years ago. Last time they won 100 games,
• 30:34
  Speaker 6: they went out in the first round.
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: Okay. Well, they're not going to go out in the
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: first round because they've already moved to the second round
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: of the playoffs. So there you go. They've already advanced.
• 30:41
  Speaker 6: This is their first round, Ben.
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: This is not their first round. It's the wild card round.
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: That's the wild card. They were not in the wild
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: card round. Why am I fighting with you? You're just
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: a troll. That's all you are is a troll. Why
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: am I fighting with you? You're a troll.
• 30:57
  Speaker 6: Ben, they had a bye.
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: That was not a bye. They earned an advancement. They
• 31:03
  Speaker 1: moved ahead on the board. You see, they had a
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: fast pass. They moved ahead.
• 31:08
  Speaker 6: Okay, they're going to lose to the Braves.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Fine. It doesn't affect me. If they lose, they lose.
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: They'll fire somebody. Outstanding. All right, thank you. Go watch
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: the draft lottery. Have they had the baseball draft lottery? No? No.
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: Who cares? Let's say hello to Whoopi Pie Blair. Must
• 31:29
  Speaker 1: be a slow night on TikTok if he's calling us. Hello,
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Whoopi Pie Blair. Welcome. Actually, no, it wasn't.
• 31:36
  Speaker 6: Well, it kind of was.
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: You know, it wasn't like the best night. I haven't
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: got a bunch of gifts. But you know what? Were
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: you shocked that the freaking Patriots beat the Bills again?
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Like.
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: That interception at the end, that's all I saw. I
• 31:52
  Speaker 2: literally didn't watch the whole game because I didn't think
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: they were going to win at the Bills.
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: Are you calling us from the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, sir? Yes,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: I think he is, Ben.
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: No, my backpack got stolen from my group home pretty much,
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: so all my personal belongings that I really had, which
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: is my other phone, is gone.
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: Oh, no, so I don't have your number anymore. I
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: had your number. I guess I can't call you. Nope.
• 32:18
  Speaker 5: That one number you had?
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: Fucking gone. You wash your mouth, though. You can't say that.
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: I'm going to call your mom if you keep cursing
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: like that. I'm going to tell your mom, knock it
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: off with this kid. What's wrong with you? What? Sorry
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: for my language. Yeah, what are you, some kind of animal?
• 32:38
  Speaker 2: No, I was absolutely keeping my backpack.
• 32:42
  Speaker 6: By my leg.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Does your phone only have speaker? Does it only have
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: speaker mode? Is that what it is, Blair? It only
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: has a speaker. Pick up the phone, Blair. Pick up
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: the phone. What do you want me to do? Pick
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: up the phone. He's calling from a tablet. He's on
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: a tablet? It's so stupid. He's screaming into a tablet.
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: It sounds terrible. Blair, why don't you get her a
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: new phone?
• 33:11
  Speaker 6: My other one's a prepaid phone.
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: What do you want me to do on that?
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: It's a piece of crap.
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: Everyone who calls has a crappy... I had Weedman on
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: the mailbag. He got on his Obama phone. I couldn't
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: even hear him. Ridiculous.
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Call me when you get a phone. I got to go.
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: This is terrible quality. I mean, it's bad enough when
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: we can hear you, Blair, but then we can't even
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: hear you. It's impossible. My God, how about Blair pausing
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: from the TikTok live to do that? Kyle writes and says,
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: how much of the show's budget comes out for Anthony
• 33:58
  Speaker 1: in Louisiana's appearances? We actually pay him top dollar. If
• 34:01
  Speaker 1: you've noticed, Kyle, none of these people are real. They're
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: all characters. They are all just creations that we have
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: come up with here. And we have to pay a
• 34:10
  Speaker 1: lot of money for each person that is a show contributor.
• 34:14
  Speaker 1: And we have the Anthony thing. character the anthony and
• 34:18
  Speaker 1: louisiana character which i think we're really proud of we're
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: going to evolve the character eventually he'll tell coop he
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: loves coop and then that'll that'll be like the next
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: layer of that so it'll be very exciting but it
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: is a big part of our our expenses here is
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: these celebrity callers like phylexis and buffalo that's a big
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: money ticket item there phylexis but long time long time
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: character that we've had on the show phylexis for sure Well,
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: an NFL owner going viral during a game that would
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: be none other than, survey says, that would be the
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: owner of the Indianapolis Colts yet again. This woman who
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: parades around the sidelines there during the games. I would
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: do the same thing if I owned an NFL team,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: so I can't be ripping her too much, but everyone gets...
• 35:03
  Speaker 1: They lose their mind. They absolutely lose their mind over this.
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: And it happened now. This was the early game. I
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: was sleeping because, God forbid, I'm not getting up that
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: early to watch the Colts and the whatever, the Washington
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: Redskins or whatever they're called now, you wokesters want. So
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: I didn't get up and watch this, but I saw
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: the clip, and a couple of you people sent me
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: the clip of the Colts owner during the game in London,
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: Carly Ursae Gordon, going viral. as the camera showed her
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: questioning the coaching staff on the sidelines about specific play calls.
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: She didn't wait until the day after. She didn't wait
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: an hour after the game for the cooling off period.
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: No.
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: Ursae Gordon, who has watched these games the last couple years,
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: wearing a headset, carrying around a notebook, and she's got
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: all her things and all that. Very hands-on, carrying the
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: tradition of her old man, Jim Ursae. who died a
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: couple years ago and all that. This is the dumbest
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: thing ever. That she's on the sidelines. No, that people
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: get all up in arms about it. People are very upset. Well,
• 36:05
  Speaker 1: it is performative in many ways.
• 36:09
  Speaker 4: How do we know that it's performative? She wants to
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: actually know what's going on. She owns the team. She
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: wants to be informed on what's happening. You don't do
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: it in real time, Coop. You wait until after the game.
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: Why? You don't do it in real time. Why? Because
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: her team, she owns it. It doesn't matter whatever the
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: F she wants.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: I would say the same people complain about their owners,
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: you know, not caring and, you know, not not being involved.
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: And then like now there's an owner involved and it's
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: it's probably because she's a woman that they're all up
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: in arms about.
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: Jerry Jones is the same thing. Look at this girl
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: on the side. Jerry Jones does do this. He's the
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: GM of the team. He's drinking shrimp cocktails up in
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: the press box or the luxury box or whatever. He's
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: not on the sidelines during the game. He's schmoozing with
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: rich people. He's schmoozing with elites.
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: He's talking about– no, Jerry Jones is a bad example
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: if you want to compare it.
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: No, but during the game, Jerry's– he's freeloading– not freeloading,
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: he pays for it, but he's got a mini bar
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: in the luxury suite, and he's got the shrimp cocktail.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: Maybe if he.
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: Was down on the sideline, the Cowboys would be a
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: little bit better.
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: Well, the Colts are doing great. They're wonderful. So anyway,
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: it is the Ben Maller Show we have coming up
• 37:17

  Speaker 1: Sunday's loss, Cam Ward. Congratulations, Cam. What a great mitzvah
• 38:56

• 38:57
  Speaker 1: for our friends in Nashville. So Cam Ward has started
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: 21 games. and lost 18 of them. That's a 143

  Speaker 1: 21 starts in NFL history. The Titans would need to

• 39:24
  Speaker 1: match my record, which had been the worst through 25 careers. starts.
