you can't do it.

Tirac dot com the way tirebuying should be. And it
is a night that is different then most other nights.
We do not have these speakeasy rules.

Speaker 3 (01:42):
Tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
It is a newbie night. Hooray for the newbe night.
Oh yeah, I know it's exciting. It's some newbie night,
image neube night. Hooray for newbenight. But we will have
newby night. It's all new callers all the time. I'll
tell you about that. It's kind of self explanatory, but
if you're a little slow, we'll fill you in on
the details. But don't bury the lead. Mom man heart,

(02:04):
We're not going to bury the lead. Our top story
here coming from pro Bouncy Ball, a playoff palooza. We
will spend most of our time at Mecca in Midtown Manhattan,
right over Penn Station, the Sixers looking to stay alive
while the Knickerbockers were trying to close out Philadelphia. Did

(02:28):
you watch it was Game five of the first round
of the pro Bouncy Ball Playoffs. Where you tuned in,
we engaged on the Turner broadcast, probably not not have
missed it, so we watched someone named Tyrese Maxie, who
I'm told is on the come, as they say in

(02:49):
the gaming world. But Tyrese Maxie, you talk about having
a night in an elimination situation. Seven points in the
final twenty five seconds of regular game went to overtime.
He finished the game with forty six That seems like
a lot to me, but I just do the overnight show.
Forty six points and he led the Sixers to the unimaginable, unbelievable, impossible,

(03:15):
one twelve to one to zho six overtime victory over
the New York basketball team with all those celebrities on hand,
and they were devastated. They were really pissed off at
Tyrese Maxie and what he did. But the Sixers trailed
by six points with twenty eight seconds left in regulation.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
We've never seen anything like this.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
We've seen wild and craziness, but never anything like this
in the history of the NBA postseason. As Maxie has
the Abra cadabra come back for the Ages. So let
us discuss the question. Did Tyrese Maxi single handedly win
this game for the Philadelphia basketball team or did the

(04:01):
New York basketball team blow chunks all over the court.
So I've got medicine, cabinet, caterpillar, and apple fritters, and
we will combine all of these things together and we're
gonna make some balloons and some cake and some celebratory alcohol,

(04:22):
which all would have been consumed had the Knickerbockers not
done what they did. But then they still might win.
I mean they should win, right, We'll get to that
in a minute. But to answer the question, did Tyrese
Maxi win the game for the Sixers or did the
Knickerbockers blow the game?

Speaker 3 (04:42):
And I think you know where I'm going with this.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
We're looking right at that Nick's logo there, that's what
we're looking at.

Speaker 3 (04:49):
Wowsers.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Now, does that mean that Tyrese Maxi was not living
the high life?

Speaker 2 (04:55):
There?

Speaker 3 (04:55):
It was Miller time, Reggie Miller.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Like, if you're really old, you remember there was this
badsketball player who's now just a terrible broadcaster. But he
used to be a good player, Reggie Miller before he
sucked as a broadcaster. And Reggie had eight points in
nine seconds for Indiana in a wacky ending against the Knickerbockers.
But that's a generation and a half ago. That game,

(05:19):
this game that was played just a few hours ago.
As we're doing this show a few hours ago, this
game was lost.

Speaker 3 (05:27):
It was not one's just a fact, that's a reality.
A Maxie.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
The only way Tyrese Maxie completes the unimaginable, the unbelievable,
the hocus pocus, the presto comeback is with a little
help from his enemies, or supposed enemies. Here, he can't
complete the mission without an assist from the New York

(05:53):
basketball team. And for the Knickerbockers, they collectively in the
final minute rated the medicine and they all overdosed on
stupid pills, all of them, the entire roster and the
coaching staff. And he said, was one guy, Jayalen Brunson,
could have still saved the day in overtime. He did
not play well in overtime. But how about idiot number one,

(06:15):
Mitchell Robinson, who unforgivably did the thing you can't do
at the time you can't do it. He fouled Maxie
on a three ball from just outside on the street
outside Madison Square Garden. And so in many ways, Mitch
Robinson working as a guardian angel for Tyrese Maxey on

(06:37):
that play. So that set it up so that all
of a sudden, goes from six to four a four
point play, so it's down to two. Maxie made the
foul shot, so it's down to two, and it's a
nail bider at that point. And then we've got moron
number two, Josh Hart, who was fouled with fifteen seconds

(06:57):
to go. You make both foul shots, and unless you
foul again, there's no mathematical way that the Sixers can
come back and tie the game. But he only made
one of two. Who goofed, I've got to know, and
so that left the door open. Then dumbass number three
would be Tom Thibodeau and the entire New York Nick

(07:18):
coaching staff and roster, everyone, anyone that was in the huddle,
everyone on the court. The knicker bocker has decided, you
know what, let's just let him play. They could have
would have should have fouled. There's not We're not gonna foul. Nah,
I an't gonna foul because knowing the Knicks, they would
have fouled. The game would have ended in regulation the
way that how stupid they are, and would have somebody

(07:41):
would have made a shot and then they would have
fouled them. It would have been a four point play
to end the game, but wild and this goes to overtime,
and then the Sixers obviously win. But the Knicks still
have a three games to two advantage, which I'm told
is good. You only have to win one more game.
You have at least two more opportunities, maybe only any one,
but you have two more chances to win one game.

(08:03):
They head back to Philly for Game six. That is
up next to how much confidence? How much confidence do
you have in New York bouncing back? So we will
turn to the Malords scale of confidence one to ten,
with ten being Michael Jordan with the ball in a
clutch situation.

Speaker 3 (08:20):
Game on the line, you know he's gonna make the
right play.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
So I'm at a six point five on the Mallard
scale of conference, which is just slightly above average. For
the next Now, the Knicks should win the game, right,
it should be lesson learned you screwed up and both
teams coughed up a fur ball. I remember the Sixers
had a big lead relatively speaking, with about twenty something

(08:46):
seconds to go in that game earlier in the series,
so both teams have goofed up. But Jalen Brunson, you
gotta think he's gonna go full throttle. He'll make the
plays at the end of the game. And watching Joelleenbiid offensively, man,
he's got a bunch of rebounds and all that. And
maybe you say, well, the numbers weren't that bad, but
Joel Andbiid he does not appear to have a higher

(09:08):
gear at least on offense right now. And the other
factor here, the other variable is Tyrese Max. I mean,
this guy, he's on the launching pad.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
Right now, and they.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
The stardom awaits your legends. We always legends are made
in the playoffs. And if he can close us out
and stick the dagger and win two more games and
be the reason the Sixers win those two games, then
you have a metamorphosis where you go from the caterpillar
to the butterfly, and everyone's saying how pretty you are?
No one says how pretty a caterpillar?

Speaker 3 (09:45):
Is that? Who cares about caterpillars?

Speaker 1 (09:47):
But butterflies, man, oh, they're the only fans the model
of the bug community, the butterfly. Everyone's oppressed with all
right now, the last word, we pivot to the Cream City.
I'm not gonna spend too much time on this because
am I surprised by them? Yes, I'm surprised by the
Oukham With both the Greek Freak and Dame time out,

(10:07):
Milwaukee steamrolled the Indiana basketball team. What an embarrassment for
Rick Carlisle, Tyrese Halliburton and the Indiana Pacers. What an
embarrassment without the top two players. Do you know that's
never happened in the history of the NBA Playoffs that

(10:27):
a team's been without their top two players and won
a playoff game that dominant. It's insane Pacers. Now they
still lead that series three games to two. Back to
the Hoosier State for Game six. Doc Rivers will soon
be back broadcasting doc Rivers saying that Giannis and Dame
are quote very very close was the quote? So has

(10:51):
the tide.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
Turned for the deer? Do we now fear the deer again?

Speaker 1 (10:57):
They absolutely took the lunch money of the Pacers. In
a game where Indiana wins, they advance in the play
So I am a skeptic on the bus.

Speaker 3 (11:09):
Now.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
It's not that I believe in Indiana. I don't, but
I do know a team like the Pacers. Home cooking
does seem to matter more than for some other teams
because of the situation here. But it's kind of like donuts.
I look at the series like donuts. You got Yannis
and Dame Time. Now if you enjoy the donut, are

(11:34):
they freshly made apple fritters just out of the the oven, hot,
ready to go? Or are they jelly donuts that have
been sitting around for eleven hours and are kind of disgusting?
And you know it's they're all behind the case. You
don't know till you get them. You don't really know

(11:55):
till you get So, Yeah, Yannis is supposed to come back.
I'll believe it when I see it. And Dame Time,
Dame lilar is gonna come back. But how good are
they going to be? Plus, even if they're good, you
still have the Doc Rivers gag factor. You've got that Milwaukee,
based on top to bottom roster, should win that series.

(12:16):
Also should be down three games to two going into
a game six. But I will believe it when I
see it on the court, and Doc is always one
step away from malpractice on the basketball court.

Speaker 2 (12:29):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific on
Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
Hey, this is Tom Berducci from Fox Sports, MLB Network
and Sports Illustrated.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
And I'm Joe Madden, and we're going to be around
to talk a little bit about managerial decisions and what
may have accredited to the dugout maybe in the nineteen eighties.

Speaker 3 (12:50):
It's the Book of Joe podcast. I can't wait for this, Joe.

Speaker 4 (12:53):
We're going to dive into what goes on in the
dugout and behind the scenes in.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Major League Baseball, cars, wind whatever else we want to talk.

Speaker 4 (13:00):
Yeah, well, there are no boundaries, right. Listen to the
Book of Joe podcast on the iHeartRadio app, on Apple
Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
Another King's decree. Well come in the beginning of another
hour of a Newbie Night on the Ben Malors Show.
We are in the air everywhere, shoulder to shoulder as
we meet in the middle coast, Duck coast, border, the

(13:29):
border and beyond on the mast and brashly powerful microphones
of FSR emmating live from the burden as we have
the burden of proof. We're broadcasting live from the Tyraq
dot Com studios. Tyraq dot com will help you get
there in unmatched selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard

(13:53):
protection and over ten thousand recommended in stars. Terry listening
in England thinks, wow, that's pretty pretty neat. He likes
that at tire rack dot com the way tire buying
should be. So a wacky knight. In pro bouncy Ball,
the playoffs continue as the Sixers able to take a

(14:13):
gift from the Knickerbockers, Tyrese Maxey getting some help and
he scores seven points in the final thirty seconds. In
the Sixers stave off elimination, stand alive, stand alive as
they get the win in overtime over the Knickerbockers and Milwaukee.
The Doc squad also stays alive. The Milwaukee Bucks blew

(14:35):
the doors off the Pacers sent them back to the
Stone Age in a blowout win without their top two players.

Speaker 3 (14:42):
You could say that's the most.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
Shocking result, most shocking result in the entire playoffs, considering
it's never happened before where a team had been without
their top two offensive players and they ended up winning
the game. So congratulations, I guess it's one game, you
still have to win two more to advance.

Speaker 3 (15:01):
And how about.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
The Cleveland Cadavers Cavaliers and the Orlando Magic and Cleveland
up three games of two in that game our friends
Strip Club John very excited about that, as Donovan Mitchell
had twenty eight points and the Cavaliers held off the Magic.

(15:24):
There were seventeen lead changes in that game. They win
by one point at the end, but are lead this
hour from a man who is not in the playoffs anymore.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
I know the newbies are excited about that.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
The oddutopsy continuing on the rotting carcass that was the
Lakers eliminated by the much superior Denver Nuggets. Lebron James
continuing to stir the pot.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
Say what so you haven't heard the latest?

Speaker 1 (15:49):
We ranted and raved like lunatics in a previous episode
of the show when Lebron James refused to say he
wanted to play for the Lakers, that's the easiest white
lie to tell of all times. Oh, I've playing here,
I don't want to play anwhere else? I left it,
But he didn't say it. He didn't say it. And
one day after if you didn't see.

Speaker 3 (16:07):
This, we'll fill you in on the details. Give me
the cliff Notes version of the mallow Notes version.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
So, one day after Lebron James refused to answer a
basic question about staying with the Lakers, Lebron went on
social media to reveal that he has made a decision
to not make a decision. Say what he said quote
I've seen heard a lot of reports about my future,

(16:33):
he posted on the socials. I said it last night
and I'll say it again. Lebronopined, I do not know yet,
as I'm only thinking about spending time with my family
and friends.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
The ultimate family man, Lebron James. All right, so let
us discuss the.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Question Lebron James giving a I counted forty three word
bulletin about his NBA status. Can you unscramble? Can you
unscramble what this means? So I've got Oscar Meyer, consumer
reports and puffy stickers, and we will combine all of

(17:12):
these things together and we are going to make a
nice exotic vacation.

Speaker 3 (17:19):
Where's Lebron going? He's you go to South of France, CanCon, Hawaii.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
We don't know. We'll find out. I'm sure we'll find out.
It'll be all over the tabloids. So, first of all,
peeking into the looking glass, and if you ever get
one of these shows, I do recommend the looking glass. So,
and we also have the Rosetta stone, which we use
sometimes the Mala Rosetta stone. But we did a minutes
long investigation word by word because we have no lives,

(17:44):
and we have determined that the latest statement by Lebron
James is Lebron announcing he is a Oscar meyer Wiener
is what he's he's announcing here. He's hot dogging it.
He's like, hey, wait, I'm out of the playoffs. I
want to I want to keep talking about me, talk
about me. You need to talk about me. What's wrong

(18:05):
with you? Yeah, So that's what that was. He's letting
his fingers on his phone or someone doing it for him,
but he's he's letting his fingers do the talking and
he's not saying anything. And that is a statement devoid
of any any real meaningful impact.

Speaker 3 (18:24):
He just said, well, I want to spend time with
my family.

Speaker 1 (18:26):
That the time with the family thing always blows me
away because in the real world, not the cartoon world
of professional sports, most people that have a family have
to keep working because they have bills to pay, they
have to write.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
But in sports it's well, I'm a family man.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
I want to spend time with my family, and the
way sports are set up, it's like being a teacher.
You get a couple months off, but you don't make
a teacher salary. You're make insane amounts of money. But
yet I gotta spend time with my family. Yeah, okay.
My favorite was Danny Ainge. Danny Ainge was coaching the

(19:03):
Phoenix Suns and he left. He got into a disagree
that's play named Robert Or who threw a towel at him.
This is years ago, and Danny Ainge said, okay, I'm out.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
I want to spend time with my family.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
He then got a job at Turner calling NBA games,
traveling to a different city every Thursday. I remember because
he sat next to me a couple of times at
what used to be called Staple Center as he was
getting ready for games like the night before. And then
he moved his family to Boston to take the job
with the Celtics, which he had for a long time.
But then he left Boston to go to Utah, so

(19:38):
he moved his family again.

Speaker 3 (19:39):
So okay, but the family van come on. Lebron's like, Hey,
I'm an attention whore. Look at me. I need attention.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
He's like porn kerosene on the top of the barbecue
to get that attention and.

Speaker 3 (19:54):
Using the family as a human shield. What do you do?
I can't talk about this because of my family. Wouldn't
that be great?

Speaker 1 (20:01):
Like you have a question at work, sir, I can't
answer that, you know, because it's the family.

Speaker 3 (20:05):
I gotta worry about the fan all right. Now.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Secondly, we head to the Commonwealth and after many had
exhaled because Chris stops Porzingis sent out a positive, positive
message on social media, it turns out the unicorn, the
unicorn has come up limp. The unicorn has supposely he
was dodging trouble.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Apparently not.

Speaker 1 (20:28):
The other shoe has dropped the Celtics. Chris stops Porzingis
is out for the game coming up here on Wednesday night.
He will not be in the lineup Game five.

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Against the Heat. But wait, there's more.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Perzingis expected to miss a minimum of several games. Now,
the Celtics will very likely win the game on Wednesday
night here, So the win tonight and then they'll have
a little bit.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
Of a gap, so there'll be a couple extra days off.

Speaker 1 (20:57):
And then they will match up in the next round,
and he'll miss at least a few of those games.
I would be surprised if he plays at all in
the next round. Right now, Cleveland would be the team
the Celtics will play the winner of the Cleveland Orlando series,
and Cleveland is currently leading that series.

Speaker 3 (21:17):
They need one more win.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
But as far as christopsperzingis and he's expected to miss
several more Celtic games, is that cause for concern. So
you've got the Micro and the Macro, and the Micro
you'd say, nah, come on, the Celtics can get two
guys off the street as long as they have White,

(21:39):
Tatum and Brown and win the next round. So that's
not really a big deal. The Macro, this was expected.
It's like you read consumer reports and you buy yourself
a twenty to twenty four jeep Wrangler, and then you
read the report and it says, well, it's it's got
problems with the steering, there's some suspension issues, there's electrical problems,

(22:04):
the engines not working properly, the drive systems not that great,
and all that, but it looks good on the outside,
like perzingis. On the outside, you're like, wow, it looks
pretty good. But then that other stuff and the other
thing that we've learned from being a professional gas bag
all these years, and I'm sure you are no different

(22:25):
than me just watching sports, that when you have a
calf injury, it's often an appetizer. It is an appetizer
to the main course, and the main course is a snap,
crackle pop of the achilles that it's a four shock,
it leads to a bigger injury. So the Celtics do
not need the Unicorn at this point in the next

(22:47):
round and likely even in the Eastern Conference finals, so
they can put him in bubble wrap and then watch
him get hurt when he comes back in the NBA finals,
so that'll be a little less painful. Now, speaking of injuries,
we head now to tinsel Town. The Lakers out, but
the Clippers are not out of the playoffs. They're squared up.
It's now a best of three playoff matchup Clippers and

(23:10):
mav Rex and they'll continue that later on tonight here
on this Wednesday. But Kawhi Leonard, if you think he's
going to play in that game, you are a loser. Now,
Kawhi Leonard will again be wearing street clothes as the
Clippers play the Dallas basketball team and a pivotal game

(23:30):
five and that coming up tonight. So I bring this
up because Paul George By George, Paul George attempted to
critique what he said was the quote incorrect media narrative
suggesting that Kawhi Leonard does not does not want to
take the floor for the people's team, and is sitting

(23:54):
out for reasons beyond just the injury. There's other stuff
going on. So Paul George with his like a knight
and shining armor, riding his chariot in so he said
podcast p that Kawhi Leonard was literally shut down because
I guess the higher ups didn't think that he was

(24:15):
himself and didn't want to further harm him by playing
games that he was not one hundred percent close.

Speaker 3 (24:21):
Quote.

Speaker 1 (24:23):
So Paul George barking into a microphone on his Fledgling
podcast that it is incorrect the narrative around Kawhi Leonard,
the reporting on Kawhi Leonard's injuries, it's incorrect. So where
are you at on this one? Where are you at
on this one. So despite the clear bromance between PG.

(24:44):
Thirteen and Kawhi Leonard, this doesn't make any sense cause
it it actually if you go word by word here
imparts the words of Paul George, it actually makes Kawhi
Leonard look worse that he's such a softy. The the
ownership knows he can't play unless he's one hundred percent.
He's ineffective, that he just can't get in in what business?

(25:08):
Can you get get a job and be like, well,
unless you're a no, one's one hundred percent, even if
you have an office job.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
I've had larryn jitis that I've had to come in
here and do the show, so it wasn't one hundred percent.
It's like, come on, it's embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
This whole Kawhi Leonard thing with the Clippers has been embarrassing,
and I like the Clippers.

Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's a joke. At this point, I just stop.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
And he just signed an extension so he can play
sixty games during the regular season and then get injured
and miss playoff games.

Speaker 3 (25:40):
It's it's like stop.

Speaker 1 (25:42):
And then PG thirteen is claiming that higher up so
it has to be Steve Balmer you think anyone other
than Bamber's making that decision. So he's saying the owner's meddling.

Speaker 3 (25:50):
So Pg.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Thirteen's futsing around, standing the owner's screwing up, and he's
messing around. I find the whole thing hard to stomach.

Speaker 3 (25:57):
I do.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
I find the whole thing hard to stomach. Paul George, Oh,
he does win on a positive note because I am
Benning bright side. Paul George wins one of those puffy
stickers from the Ministry of Misinformation on Kawhi Leonard period stop.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
Be sure to catch live editions of The Ben Meller
Show weekdays at two am Eastern eleven pm Pacific.

Speaker 1 (26:16):
Here we go, Here we go, get smell here way
going to the third degree. This is when Big Ben
gets grilled the coup dal loot.

Speaker 5 (26:29):
The Steelers twenty twenty four draft is being so highly
regarded that many experts view it as one of the
best in the league. One analyst even says that Pittsburgh
drafted the offensive and defensive rookies of the year. Ben,
did the Steelers knock it out of the park?

Speaker 3 (26:41):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (26:42):
No, Listen, they got guys that the consensus said they
did well. But the consensus is off and wrong. The
consensus is off and wrong. You look at the depth, Shart,
it's projected that a couple of these guys will be
in the starting lineup. But no, the greatest draft of
all time was the Steelers back of I think they
drafted two Hall.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
Of famers, three Hall of famers in one draft.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
But yeah, that's way too premature, way too premature to
say that about this draft.

Speaker 5 (27:07):
Next, on a recent episode of Draymond Green's podcast, Draymond
actually gave props to one of his biggest enemies, Rudy Gobert.
Green said that Gobert is actually not trash anymore and
that he's and that he's quote actually impacting winning Ben.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Do you agree, Well, first of all, I don't agree.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Secondly, I don't think Draymond Green agrees because I if
I saw the quote right, didn't He also say, well,
because he's around better players, so he's like he couched.
It's it's like a backhanded copp and he's like, well, yeah,
he's good, but he's really because he's got better players
around it.

Speaker 5 (27:39):
Next, we're asked about the age of rookie quarterback Bo
Knicks Broncos GM George Payton said that Knicks will be
more game ready than if they had taken a twenty
one year old Ben.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
Do you think this revealed the Bronco's planned to start Knicks?

Speaker 1 (27:50):
Well, he's played more games in recently than Joe Burrow
has in the NFL. But listen bow Knicks. Nobody knows.
He could be fine. You don't know what you don't know,
But I don't think the age thing factors into that
much at all. How did we die and pass us?

Dear ry.

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Well, there she is the Queen. She likes it.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
It's temporary open, it's now been used for ten years,
but we still have it. And so we thank our
our listener for Melia, but the Queen. You're answering questions right,
Random questions from random listeners to the show.

Speaker 6 (29:05):
Yes, are you gonna do me? The honors of reading
them again.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
Yes, of course, if you want me to read them,
I will love that.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
I don't know which ones you want me to read it,
I'll just I see there's a bunch of them.

Speaker 6 (29:13):
Yeah, try to get the ones that came in this week.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
Well, yeah, I mean there's there's a bunch. There's all
kinds of random things here.

Speaker 6 (29:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Double O Mexican asked a bunch. He said, should you
share your phone password with your significant other?

Speaker 6 (29:27):
Ooh, this is a great one, Double O Mexican, because
I feel like once trust is actually established, I don't
see why you wouldn't like why they wouldn't have your password?

Speaker 3 (29:35):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 6 (29:36):
Those passwords are meant to protect you from strangers and
people who are meant to harm you, not your significant others.
So if you're keeping stuff you probably shouldn't be in
a relationship.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
Wow, you give your password out of or yeah?

Speaker 6 (29:47):
Usual if you think about it, like, let's say they're
just looking at your phone in general, like look at this,
and then it goes onlock and they're like, oh can
I get back in? Yeah, give them your password.

Speaker 3 (29:55):
What if they don't want to see their porn collection
or whatever.

Speaker 6 (29:58):
You should probably share that you should share that, Yes,
you should.

Speaker 3 (30:02):
All right, Donkey Sausage, he wants to know. He wants
to know.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
When is it a good time to introduce your partner
or partners to your various kinks. I can imagine a
guy named Donkey Sausage must have some very interesting things.

Speaker 6 (30:18):
I think we had this question the first week, Ben, I.

Speaker 3 (30:22):
Is that a repeat, it's a new question.

Speaker 6 (30:24):
It is a new question. But so the ques. The
answer to that is you should always come out the
gate with it. We talked about fetlife dot com that
you could go to and find people who have similar
kinks to you if you do want to go find
someone and not feel ashamed.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
Yeah, and if you you know that furry convention that's
a big there's a lot of hookups.

Speaker 6 (30:42):
They go, oh my gosh, those furry conventions are crazy
hard hook up though, because you got the tails and
the different thing, it's hard to seems to be a
lot in the way, right.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Yeah, there's a lot of stuff going on here, Cowboy Killer,
says Queen of Hearts Lorena. Is it okay to get
joint social media counts?

Speaker 6 (31:01):
That's come on, when couples do that, I'm like, that's
a red flag. He's been cheating. You've been in his inbox.
You saw. No, that's that's what that's usually a red flag.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
Yeah, it's just dumb.

Speaker 6 (31:11):
It's dumb. Yeah, it's dumb. You don't need that.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
It's fine limits to that, right, you would not don't
do that. You would not go that direction.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
Right, I would never. I would never.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
Well, this is an interesting question from ferg Dog. Should
men pretend to believe in astrology since for some reason
most women do.

Speaker 3 (31:28):
That's from from Fergie.

Speaker 6 (31:31):
You should, I mean, you should never pretend to anything.
You're gonna get caught eventually. If you don't care for it,
just say you know it is, it's not your thing
and that's fine.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Now, then, have you dated a guy that you could
tell was just like putting on a show because he
wanted to hang out with you, like, oh.

Speaker 6 (31:45):
Yeah, all the time, all the time, but not necessarily
for astrology purposes. When a guy does bring up astrology,
I look at.

Speaker 3 (31:51):
Him weird, give like the evil eye.

Speaker 6 (31:53):
What do you huh? Because I don't bring it up either.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
I don't.

Speaker 6 (31:56):
I don't go by that stuff.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
I got you, all right, the King Rory right Sid
And by the way, we do have a call. It's
not scream, but a guy in Colorado wanted to talk
to you. King Rory says, if you and your significant
other both are interested in a show or movie, is
it rude to watch it without the Oh my gosh.

Speaker 6 (32:15):
It so offensive to me. I've had exes who did this,
and I'm like, you watched it without me. Oh well,
I'll go back and watch it again with you. No,
that ruins it. No, if you're watching it together, watch
it together.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
You're a stickler for that.

Speaker 6 (32:28):
I am a stickler for that.

Speaker 3 (32:30):
You are a big stickler. All right, let's go to
the call here. I think he's in Colorad. I forget
his name. You're hello, so you're on the air. Who
was this?

Speaker 7 (32:36):
All right? This is Rick in Colorado?

Speaker 3 (32:38):
Hell a Rick and Colorad. You're on with the Queen
ari k that's what I said. Congratulations.

Speaker 6 (32:45):
Oh no, I didn't.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Eric, Eric are k rick are e k wreck. This
is very important.

Speaker 1 (32:53):
The spelling of this man's name is the most important
thing we will all learn here on the Queen of Hearts.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
The most important thing.

Speaker 7 (33:00):
Called me read last time?

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Oh okay, hey, we're trying.

Speaker 6 (33:04):
We're trying. What's your question?

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Of love.

Speaker 7 (33:05):
Okay, The question is I've got a daughter there was
born in Valentine's Day. She's like sixteen, and she got
a boyfriend that she likes that is nineteen.

Speaker 3 (33:15):
Oh older man.

Speaker 7 (33:16):
Oh yeah, and I was screened Eve and everything. He's
a good guy. My daughter's mom, on the other hand,
is totally against it. And she had her daughter, first daughter,
when she was fifteen, when she ran away from home
and dropped out of school.

Speaker 3 (33:32):
Yeah, a lot going on there. There's a lot going well.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
My baby daddy was also nineteen when I was sixteen.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Really okay, all right, you know.

Speaker 6 (33:41):
It's just one of those things. Make sure your daughter
knows to respect herself and the rules of the house.
If she's going to date an older man, you know,
show her what it is and you can't block her.
People when you tell him no, they just they go harder,
right exactly, So you know, there to support HER's about that?

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Yeah, yeah, ye, what do you do about that?

Speaker 6 (34:02):
I'm a yeller to give them space, baby, give them space.
They got to react. Women react in the moment where reactors.
Men can sit there and look all stern, but you
guys are fretful on the inside.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Another bears, Teddy bears. All right that thank.

Speaker 6 (34:20):
You, thank you, or however you say it.

Speaker 3 (34:25):
So the mom and the dad disagree, who's going to win?
The mom with the dead on that. I don't know.

Speaker 6 (34:30):
Kids manipulate parents too, so that is.

True, Matt Jack writes in he says, is the queen
of hearts? Here our friend lorraina real quick. Do you
believe in afrodis acts? If so, which do you recommend?

Speaker 3 (34:41):

Speaker 6 (34:42):
Oh my gosh, Oysters and champagne are my favorite. Yes,
they're so good. If you go to a nice oyster bar.
There's for in Coasta, Mesa. They have amazing champagne. I'm
telling you even the ugliest man can get laid have
a good night. Yes kidding?
