Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hee.

Speaker 2 (00:00):
We all welcome.

Speaker 3 (00:03):
It's our numb ver two, our number two, and it's
the big hour from Big d Edge Rusher. Michael Parsons
and the Cowboys are discussing an extension. Jerry Jones and
the Boys have no sense of urgency to reach an agreement.
Can you explain this in simple terms? We will attempt

(00:23):
to do that. Also, Patrick Mahomes Jim photos making the
rounds on social media are blank.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Fill in the blank. And the Jaguars got.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
Rid of not one, not two, not three, but actually
six key players in a variety of ways. That included
Christian Kirk to the Texans, and they released some other players.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
What is Liam Kohane doing in dou All County.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
We'll get to all of that. Also, we'll have Mallard
of the third degree. It's coming your way right here.
Buckle up, bukaroo, it's our number two moving you are
a sloth welmeme. In the beginning of another hour of
the Ben Mahler Show.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
We are in the air everywhere, side by side, as
we advanced the ball up the court, coast to coast, border,
the border and beyond.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
On the vast and unfathomably powerful microphones of fsre emmating
live from the break, the fast Break of the Overnight.
We're broadcasting live the tyrack dot com studios tyract dot com.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
We'll help you get there and unmatched.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
Selection, fast, free shipping, free road hazard protection, and over
ten thousand recommended in stars.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
Crying Craigs cried ten thousand times thinking.

Speaker 3 (01:50):
About that tire rackt dot com the Way Tire Buying showban.
That's not the original crying Craig that lived in the Commonwealth.
This is the crying Craig that lives in Seattle, the
modern crying Craig, the modern crying Craig.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
So our lead this hour is from Dallas.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
We are contractually obligated for an obligatory Mallard monologue about
the life and times of the Dallas Cowboys. How about
him Cowboys offseason Shenanigans. So did the Cowboys make a
big trade in the last twenty four hours?

Speaker 5 (02:23):
No?

Speaker 3 (02:23):
Did the Dallas Cowboys make some big roster move a
signing of someone who had been released by another team?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Check my notes here.

Speaker 3 (02:31):
No, Well, the Cowboys have no plans, no plans to
do anything. That's essentially the story here, but a lot
of connecting the dots after Max Crosby this week agreed
to the largest contract as an edge rusher in NFL
history and the biggest contract outside of a quarterback in Vegas.

(02:54):
So that seemingly, you would think would lead to Dallas
doing something.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Well, not so fast. Not so fast.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
So if the latest one this we're hearing now, the
Cowboys have said they are.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
Not really, not really in a rush.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
To get a deal done with Micah Parsons, even after
Max Crosby broke.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
The bank in Vegas.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
So let us discuss the question defensive stalwart Micah Parsons
and the Dallas Cowboys. They are discussing an extension, but
there is no sense of urgency. There's said to be
no sense of urgency in getting a deal done. Can
you explain this in simple terms? Yes, So I've got

(03:40):
Maven deep sea fishing and Kiner's Corner, and we will
combine all of these things together and we are going
to make fish and chips, beer battered fish and chips. Now,
I don't eat seafood, but once a year, if i'm
you know, usually doing the summer, I at the somewhere

(04:00):
and I'm in a little restaurant near the beach, I
will do the rare and appropriate fish and chips dinner
or actually lunch, usually for lunch. But that's it, all right,
So uh number I said numb.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
The lesson.

Speaker 3 (04:17):
Let me explaining this stop in simple terms, all right.
The lesson is procrastinating pays off. It certainly pays off
if you're Micah Parsons, because if you slow walk this negotiation,
either you're gonna get traded to a good team Cowboys
or not, or you're just gonna stay in Dallas and
get extra goodies. And who doesn't want extra goodies? I

(04:40):
want extra goodies. I know you want extra goodies. So,
as we have discussed in previous episodes of this show,
Micah Parsons has got a lot of empty.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Calories in his diet.

Speaker 3 (04:52):
Parsons has not stepped up in big moments as a
Dallas cowboy.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
Who's only been there a little bit of time. Give
him a chance.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Okay, Well, I have a show to do right now,
and I'm talking about what has happened up until this point.
He is like Dak Prescott obviously defensively in that you
look at the numbers and you're pretty impressive, and he
compares to some of the greats in the game. But
yet he has this innate ability to turtle up when
you shouldn't really turtle up. And the longer that Micah

(05:22):
Parsons waits again procrastinating, the longer he waits, the more
money money many that will be included in the contract.
It's simple malor math. So Max Crosby just reset the market.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
Well.

Speaker 3 (05:35):
Trey Hendrickson, who we talked about last hour, Trey Hendrickson
of Cincinnati, has said he is willing to go anywhere.
He'll go to Kabul or Peung Yang if they offer
him enough money. He wants to reset the market. So
if he resets, he's in the on deck circle. He
resets the market, okay, And then TJ. Watt in Pittsburgh says,

(05:56):
hold my beer, I'd like to get some of that
dough as well. Oh, and up, up and away. Now
knowing all this, it's common sense. If I know it
doing the Overnight show, you'd think everyone knows it. So
being aware of this information, why would Jerry Jones not
have a sense of urgency as the big Kahuna with

(06:18):
the Cowboys. The reason why my theory is because he's
a maven. He's a marketing Maven and Jerry is just
concerned about keeping the Cowboys in the headlines, and he
has said in the past, when things get a little
slower around here, I like to shake it up. So
the longer that Micah Parson sits and collects dust on
a shelf, the more likely it becomes a talking point

(06:43):
on sports talk radio and television and generates free publicity
advertising for the Cowboys brand, ride for the brand, and
that'll carry the Cowboys throughout the spring and the summer.
The way this normally goes is at some point there'll
be a rumor that Micah Parsons is gonna ask for
a trade, or some teams calling the Dallas Cowboys about

(07:05):
a trade, and it will likely be fugazi, but it
doesn't matter because it gets the Cowboys headlines for that day.
And more importantly, all of this helps the money train
roll in and fills up the coffers at the Death
Star where the Cowboys practice.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
There.

Speaker 3 (07:21):
They call it the Star, but real people know it's
the Death Star where championship dreams go to end.

Speaker 2 (07:26):
All right now, Page.

Speaker 3 (07:26):
Two to Canzas City, the City of Fountains and Ben
Mallard chicken Fingers.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
While over in Liberty.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
I bring this up because a listener who lives in
the great state of Missouri and has eaten more than
once the Ben Mallard Chicken Fingers sent me this photo
which is making the rounds.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
I did not see this on my own, full disclosure,
he sent this.

Speaker 3 (07:49):
To me, but it shows what appears to be Patrick
Mahomes in a gym, you know, a classic gym photo
doing the old workout, doing the grind, and this is
making the rounds around the social media.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
So Mahomes Jim photo.

Speaker 3 (08:05):
Patrick Mahomes Jim photo working out here in the off
season making the rounds on social media is a blank
is blank. So I'm going to use the fill in
the blank on that. I'm going to use deep sea fishing,
as in Mahomes phishing for compliments.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Now, spoiler alert, spoiler alert, last I checked out.

Speaker 3 (08:28):
I might be wrong on this, but Patrick Mahomes is
a professional athlete, and when you're a professional athlete, you're
a prostitute. You're literally selling your body because that's that's
the product, your body. It's your vehicle, and every once
in a while in the off season you have to
tune it up. And so the Chiefs are paying for
the services of mahomes body four hundred and fifty million

(08:48):
dollars high end prostitute, four hundred and fifty million dollar contract.
You don't get credit for working out doing things you're
supposed to be doing. So pretty sure this guy, his
name is Mike, who sent this to me.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
I'm pretty confident.

Speaker 3 (09:04):
That he knew I would have this reaction, and he's
just a dink, and he wanted me to react this way.
And I guess I'm taking the low hanging fruit and
I'm off to the racist. But if anything, I would
argue that this is Patrick Mahomes's way of highlighting the
fact that he wasn't in great shape last season, even
though they got to the Super Bowl. I don't remember.

(09:26):
Maybe this has happened and I haven't seen it. I
don't really pay attention to this stuff because it annoys me.
But I don't recall seeing photos of Mahomes working out
taking up bandwidth in recent years.

Speaker 2 (09:40):
I'm not saying it didn't happen.

Speaker 3 (09:41):
I just don't recall being sent them or running into
them on the interweb.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
I don't recall it now. Either way, these pictures.

Speaker 3 (09:50):
Getting out that make me want to puke in my
mouth now right now, mahomes when I see people in
the gym, and obviously this is Mahomes and all that.
So when I see this, it's three squares a day.
It's vanity validation and ego boosting, because when you put
a photo out like that, it's all about vanity. You

(10:11):
want validation because you know the jocksniffers out there and
the body counts will put you on a pedestal.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Oh man, you're doing great. Super Bowl Championship, Wait to
go Raw Rock team.

Speaker 3 (10:22):
And it boos your ego. It's a little dopamine hit
all right now. Final point to Jacksonville. The waiver wire,
waiver wire, waiver wire blowing up in the last twenty
four hours as the Jags are having a going out
of business sale. It would appear they have dumped not one,
not two, not three, not four, not five, how about

(10:44):
six supposedly key players in a variety of ways, including
the quick trade of Christian Kirk, wide receiver who was
sent packing.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
He was let go and he's.

Speaker 3 (10:58):
Been traded in the division for Jacksonville to the Houston Texans.
So he stays in the AFC South, goes to Houston,
they released tight end Evan Ingram, he gone Ronald Darby,
a veteran defensive back, and wide receiver Josh Reynolds have
all been.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Excommunicated.

Speaker 3 (11:16):
So what is Liam Cohne doing in Jacksonville, that's the question.
So my word is redecorating, That is my word. He
is redecorating the roster, bringing in his guys. I can
only imagine who his guys are. You know, broom new,
Broom sweeps clean. So he's essentially getting rid of mostly

(11:36):
middle aged by football standards, middle aged to older players.
You've got Josh Reynolds, who's passed the age of thirty
and had a couple of good years with the Lions,
remember that, and then I went to the Broncos and
was a bust and then Jacksonville didn't work out. So
you've also got Ronald Darby, who I believe his next
team will be his fourth team in as many years.

(11:58):
That's a sign things are not going well when you're
on four teams in four years. He's also passed the
age of thirty and Evan Ingram, who's all on the
other side the wrong side of thirty, and he finished
the year on injured reserve.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
With a messed up shoulder.

Speaker 3 (12:14):
So for all the I say internet outrage, I don't
know how much internet outrage the team from Duval County
can drum up. Last I checked, the Jags finished four
and thirteen. And one of my favorite stories. I heard
this a lot when I was a kid. It's obviously
an old story now everyone's dead, but who was involved
in it? But there was this baseball player named Ralph Kiner.
You know, have no idea who that is, but he's
very famous in his day, and he played for the

(12:35):
Pittsburgh Pirates and back before steroids.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
And small ballparks and all that.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
He had one big year at thirty seven home runs
and he went into the general manager, this guy named
branch Rickey, who's kind of a big deal. He's the
guy that was the geam of the Brooklyn Dodgers when
they allowed Jackie Robinson. He found Jackie Robinson to play
and break the color bearer. Anyway, so Ralph Kiner, at
thirty seven home runs one year for the buckos, he
goes and he says, I'd like to get a raise.

(13:02):
And the legendary story is that the GM of the
Pirates at the time said, well, Ralph where we finish,
and Ralph said, we'll finish in the last place. And
then the famous line was, well, we can finish in
the last place without you.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
We don't need you.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
And that's essentially with Jackson Like I know, they weren't
the worst of the worst of the worst in the NFL,
but they were close to the worst of the worst
of the worst in the NFL four and thirteen. And
so Liam Kone sure does not give off the vibe
of someone that knows what they're doing.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
He doesn't seem like the adult in the room. Dub
All County. We'll see how this goes, Well, see how
this goes.

Speaker 3 (13:37):
But I certainly don't understand the hullabaloo from getting rid
of six players, and only one of them I would
say is even mildly an impact guy, and that's Evan Ingram,
the tight end, and he's coming off a shoulder injury.

Speaker 2 (13:53):
So other than that, I'm looking at his name.

Speaker 3 (13:54):
Like Christian Kirk, you obviously think the guy blows You
traded him in the division. You would never do that.
If you've the guy's good, you would never send him
in the vision. Now Jacksonville does not seem to know
what they're doing. So maybe it's a good day.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
For the Houston Texans because Christian.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
Kirk it will go and explode and dominate and all that.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Anyway, it is the Ben Mahlor Show, The Ben Malor Show.

Speaker 3 (14:16):

if you'd like to be part of the program. So

(14:38):
I've often often preached that everyone's got a price.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
I think most people figure that out at.

Speaker 3 (14:43):
Some point in life, right and you say, won't do something,
you won't do this, you won't do that, but if
you get paid enough money, you'll do it. Latest example
on that, the old Switcheroo, The Old Switcheroo.

Speaker 2 (14:54):
We'll get to that.

Speaker 3 (14:55):
Also later this hour we'll have Mallard of the Third Degree.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
We are here hanging out with you until the wee
hours of the morning every night during the week. This

It is an advantage the pod audience does not have.
Those working the dreaded day shift cannot interact with the
live show unless they sat automated if they send automated
comments on social media.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
So the way this works, do it live. I know
you're not paying attention.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
You can sell it to Ben at Ben mallor a
L L E R. If you don't know how to
spell the word Ben, you're too dumb to send a
message in.

say that LORRAINA. You know you're curious about Lorraine.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Back to it we go well, and we we do
have a tease here, Bill that you did not mention.
We'll get to the the old switcheroo. Everyone's got their price.
We'll get to that coming up in a couple of
minutes as well. We will take a bunch of phone calls.
Didn't take many last hour. Bad job by us. I
understand that Cooper Loop is being pestered by Tony in

(17:03):
the bay, and he's being bothered there because Tony wants
details on the.

Speaker 2 (17:10):
Octagon late night drug test.

Speaker 3 (17:12):
He says, now, not to tell tell you how to
run your show, Ben, but all that football talk could
hurt the show audience in Chisholm, Hibbing and he Dinah, Minnesota.
After all the high school hockey talk in hour one,
I know, I wish you could.

Speaker 6 (17:29):
Just shut your big yupper.

Speaker 2 (17:31):
Yeah, you're trying, You're trying to help us out, Cory says.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
Mahomes does the Jim photo video thing all throughout the year.
For the past several years, I get well, if that's true, Corey,
I don't know this guy. Mike sent me some photos
you wanted to He wanted to have me explode.

Speaker 2 (17:44):
So I took the bait. That's fine.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
Uh, guilty of charge. Guilty of charge, Timothy from Northern Kentucky. Right,
since says rumor has it the players being released on
the Jags could say, do all better than Liam Khne?

Speaker 2 (18:00):
Dude, All, yeah, there it is right there.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
Mark and Santa Monica writes in beautiful Santa Monica, right.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
There, I'm old enough to run.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
This Third Street Promenade used to be the hottest place
in Santa Monica. It used to be amazing. I used
to hang out there all the time. Now it's like
a homeless shelter basically. But Mark and Santa Monicas is
the Cowboys haven't won a Super Bowl in thirty years.
They are no longer America's team. They are as irrelevant
as the browns Now Mark. Not that I want to

(18:31):
get a fight with you, Mark, You've kicked my ass,
But let me explain somebody, Mark, in terms of audience,
and that's what worried about the metrics here. The Dallas
Cowboys continue to be the most watched NFL team, which
is a testimonial to the fact that winning and losing
doesn't really matter all that much. Otherwise people would not
watch the Dallas Cowboys. But whoever has the Cowboys, whether

(18:52):
it's Fox, which it usually is, or CBS, or if
the Cowboys are playing a primetime game, that is almost
always the highest game of the weekend, with far and
a few and far between exceptions to the rule, the
Cowboys get the Cowboys audience.

Speaker 7 (19:06):
Well, now I have a question for you, Ben.

Speaker 3 (19:08):
Yes, Justin Cooper would like to ask a question. Cooper,
go ahead, cool, please?

Speaker 1 (19:11):
So obviously I believe that this probably has something to
do with all of their championship teams in the in
the nineties right now.

Speaker 2 (19:20):
Forty years ago.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
True, but those people are still watching football. In fact,
I imagine they make up a large portion of the audience.
Do you think, as we can time goes on and
those people start dying dying? Yeah, will that still be
Will that still hold true about the Dallas Cowboys?

Speaker 2 (19:44):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (19:44):
I think so, because it's like the Cowboys seem like
a religion to me. It's like when you're a Cowboy fan,
it's like generational unless your kids hate you and then
they become like Eagles fans or something like that.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Because you know, if if winning does and winning and
losing doesn't matter, what draws people to the Cowboys. It's
not like they have super interesting players. Dak Prescott, isn't
you know, magnetic?

Speaker 2 (20:04):
You're not.

Speaker 7 (20:05):
I think people just like to be disappointed.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
You think they have this, Yeah, there's a term for that.

Speaker 7 (20:11):
But I love feeling like a loser every time they lose.
I'm like, ah, yes, I am such a loser.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
There's something that's probably some some deep psychological something to this,
because like Lorena decided to choose the Cowboys as their
favorite team for.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
I think she just liked the star logo.

Speaker 7 (20:26):
No, no, it's for my mother, Thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Okay, for your for your mom And why did your
mom Why was your mama fan?

Speaker 4 (20:32):
You know, because because of the Star because she was
the nineties and she's from.

Speaker 1 (20:36):
San Antonio and she loved that one guy.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
There is a game. There is a game you can play.

Speaker 3 (20:42):
You can find out how old someone is by their
favorite teams. Yeah, Like, if you're a Chicago Bulls fan,
you grew up in the nineties, right, if you're now
the next, like Golden State. You're a Golden State fan,
you probably when they they started winning championships around was
it twenty fifteen or.

Speaker 7 (21:00):
Five years ago?

Speaker 6 (21:01):
Right?

Speaker 7 (21:01):
It wasn't long.

Speaker 3 (21:02):
Well, it's been ten years, I think, right, twenty fourteen,
twenty fifteen, something like that. So that means you're probably
in your early twenties now. If you're a Golden State
you grew up a Golden State Warriors fan.

Speaker 7 (21:12):
Yeah, twenty fifteen was ye.

Speaker 3 (21:14):
Like when I was a kid, a lot of the
dudes were like Miami Dolphin fans because of Dan Marino,
not that they ever won, but Dolphin fans.

Speaker 2 (21:21):
A lot of Yankee fans and.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
Fans of the historians like those those three teams or
the Cowboys.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Cowboys were in there also.

Speaker 7 (21:29):
That's a team the historians.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Yes, Purple and goal historian never heard of the play
down on skid Row in LA. But hey, Jerry Jones
is a master carnival barker.

Speaker 3 (21:40):
He's a great hype man, and he knows he doesn't
wear the red jacket, the straw hat. He might as
well have that handlebar mustache and all that.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
He knows how to do it.

Speaker 3 (21:48):
Man, I give him credit. He's the Barnum and Bailey
of modern times.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
Here, let's go to the phones. We'll take some calls.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
It is a calling show coming up later on this
hour of Mallord to the Third Degree Mallard thirty three
coming up a little bit later in the hour.

Speaker 2 (22:02):
Let's go to the phones, though. Right now we'll say
hello to E Dog who's in New York. Hello, E Dog, Welcome.

Speaker 8 (22:08):
How you do him out of the hospital now?

Speaker 3 (22:10):
And I'm feeling one hundred congratulations? Did they chop your
foot off?

Speaker 8 (22:17):
Anyway?

Speaker 9 (22:17):
Two things, First, of the Nicks, they should have protested
the game because it was an intent to injure a
foul and they kicked Branton out of the game, and
that's why they lost. I would say intentional foul, protest
the game.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
I agree. I think that the NBA should give the
Knicks the win.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
And did you see Lebron flop on that play at
the end where him and Karl Anthony.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
Towns the ball?

Speaker 7 (22:43):
He had position on a flop.

Speaker 2 (22:46):
I thought the NBA got rid of floppy. That's a flop.
He's floppy mcflop.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
He's a flopper fish Jesus earlier in the game.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
No, he didn't he's a good player. I love Jaylen Brunce.
I like that guy. I like bru.

Speaker 8 (23:00):
Listen then, why okay? Over here? I call certain girls
on the radio station and my name is Eric and
they said I'm like the left Field but for the
New Yankees, because I call all day. And when I
was in Maammy Beach, I'm telling you a bunch of
queers over there.

Speaker 9 (23:20):
The one guy was staring at my ASD.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
What do you? What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (23:25):
What do you can't?

Speaker 9 (23:25):
What do you?

Speaker 7 (23:26):
I should dump that.

Speaker 8 (23:29):
You're getting jealous of Melissa?

Speaker 7 (23:31):
Oh, definitely jealous of Melissa. I can.

Speaker 8 (23:35):
We get Jennifer Addison here a little.

Speaker 1 (23:37):
It's the scorpio in me.

Speaker 7 (23:39):
You know, I'm just a jealous person.

Speaker 8 (23:41):
I'm a vergo.

Speaker 3 (23:43):
Is that why you started calling dog? Is that what
you started calling the show again? Because Lorena you heard
her voice and you had to call in again.

Speaker 8 (23:50):
I once had twelve girls in a hotel room.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
What are you saying?

Speaker 7 (23:55):
He once had four girls in a hotel room.

Speaker 3 (23:57):
Really they were cleaning the room, maybe next hour, but yeah, yeah, yeah,
there you go?

Speaker 2 (24:08):
All right? Is that idy? Dog? You just wanted to
tell those.

Speaker 7 (24:11):
I didn't want to hear any more of that story. Okay,
come on, I bet it got real fun.

Speaker 3 (24:16):
Maybe Joe Dog will call up next hour and give
us the inside skinny.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
Marcel's awake. Now he normally he's not up at this hour.
He only waits for the last hour. He says, shut
down Tony in the Bay. Yeah, he sent that.

Speaker 3 (24:29):
Out the rhetoric all weekend between these two guys. Yeah,
because late night directors said, late Night directess I said,
look out, Marcel, Tony in the Bay is bringing a
haymaker on the phone call.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
And now Marcel is he's fired up. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 3 (24:50):
On his profile it says the official page of the
four time caller of the Year, but it does not
say the name of the show. It just says the
fourth collar of the Uh. It said Marcel's profile Marcel,
and Brooklyn says, social media star podcaster.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
Does he still do his podcast?

Speaker 3 (25:09):
Remember I went on I went on his podcast one
that Mornings with Marcel. I went on his podcast, and
he kept me on hold for a while, which I
mean pay back, right, I keep people on hold. So
he kept me on hold and then he read like
a Bible verse before he put me on it would
he be like a morning prayer or something like that.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
And then here's like.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
He was doing all this other stuff, and I said,
but he told me to call in it like the
exact time, and then he he kind of messed.

Speaker 2 (25:32):
Around with me. So with that, it's not nice. It's
going now to a man. You know this name.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
When you hear this name, ship that guy I've heard
of that name. We're going out of Boston working his
night job, the great Danny DeVito, Hello, Danny, Welcome.

Speaker 10 (25:51):
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (25:54):
If I was any better, I'd be a sock, but
not a red sock, because you know they're not that great.

Speaker 10 (26:00):
Yes, hey, so it's going pretty good over here and Boston,
the stow is all gone, looking forward to the string.
But I want to talk about a team in my
back yacht over here that bought the Celtics. Did you
see that a couple of nights ago, two Banks players
going forty plus points? Is that how watered down this
league is?

Speaker 9 (26:18):
Now?

Speaker 10 (26:19):
You believe that I don't care about I know it's
against the Blazers, but that was pretty serious.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
Well they were They each shot how many three point shots?
I think that was ninety plus three point shots combined
in that game. I did actually watch some of that game.
Mike Mike Tarrico did the play by player on TV.
Of all people, he filled in on the celhone doing that.

Speaker 5 (26:38):
Well, yeah, in that game.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Yeah, I think what they're trying to do and I
don't know, but he was on NBC Sports Boston. I
think what they were doing is because he's going to
do the NBA next year, because NBC has got the NBA,
so I think he had to get some reps in
on the NBA. But I watched the game and they
kept shooting three point shots. It was like Papa shot.
It's like when I used to play video games before
it was cool to shoot three point shots.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
All I would do is shoot three point shots. And
that's what they were doing.

Speaker 10 (27:03):
Yeah, now exactly right, Yeah, they playing a video games.
It's Sheeltic Jo Dan.

Speaker 2 (27:08):
But I love it, Danny, I love it. And you watch.
I watched some of the nick Lakers game.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
And how many times are you in an NBA game
will they have like a three on one or a
two on one fast break and they'll kick it back
out rather than get a layup, They'll kick it back
out for a three point shot.

Speaker 10 (27:24):
Yeah, shoot a thirty five exactly.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Even God, a hammered dunk or a layup, and you're like,
I'd rather shoot a three point shot, Like come on.

Speaker 10 (27:32):
Yes, yeah, where is the what is it?

Speaker 9 (27:35):
Ben?

Speaker 10 (27:35):
Mell and meet and gree What do you travel the country?
Is that what you do?

Speaker 2 (27:40):
Well normally, Danny.

Speaker 3 (27:41):
What I do is when I go to a city,
if I like, for example, I usually go to Boston,
they bring back the TV show and then I hang
out with people and we just you know, kind of
have a meal or whatever and uh talk and schmooze
and then a couple hours and that's it.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
Yeah, oh that's nice.

Speaker 10 (27:56):
Ben. You're coming to Boston anytime soon? And why you
normally visit Boston.

Speaker 2 (28:02):

TV show.

last hour or not last night the last hour of
yesterday's show.

Speaker 5 (30:08):
Yeah, I'm holding turf really strong here in the North End?
Are we going to have like a sixty style white
trash on turf war here in the North End? Like
they you have. I'm very well connected here. Mark, you know,
Mark from Deadim or wherever he's from. He's not from
the North End. He's if we have trivia, he's not
from here. He's not going to intimidate me. I'm from

(30:28):
the North End. My family's built the whole North End.
They came here from Ireland with the construction company. The
Italians came in after. I mean, I'm not gonna crap
on Italian Americans, but they look like you know.

Speaker 3 (30:40):

do it, and now you're about to do it.

Speaker 2 (30:43):
I liked it.

Speaker 3 (30:44):
You said I'm not going to do it, and then
the next thing out of your mouth is to do it.

Speaker 2 (30:47):

Speaker 5 (30:48):
Yes, you know you think Daddy DeVito wants to be
friends with me. He's from East Boston, like where Coop stayed,

Danny DeVito is actually trump So like, well.

Speaker 2 (31:06):

Speaker 3 (31:07):
Now you you were not at the first Mala meet

Vinnie and we ate pizza in East Boston at San Tarpios.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
That's where we hung out.

Speaker 5 (31:15):
That's that's where it sounds like Danny. I mean, we
don't know for sure, but that's where it sounds like
he's trum because he was working at High Park. He
said he was from there. That's across the harbor. It's
only a mile away from here, so you know, I've
lived in the North and my whole life. Danny DeVito's
from East Boston, maybe Revere. We're from the same neighborhood.
We probably know the same people that died in that
target bathroom in Revere. You know, doing dope. You know

He's upset that.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
Tony the Bay wants to take on Marcel and the
octage like he's picking on a handicapped person and that.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
But we treat everyone equally here.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
We love you know, that's why handicapped people love the
show because we treat them like a holes and they
love that, absolutely love it. We treat them just like
everyone else. They're all schmucks and everyone's the same here.
And that's the wonderful thing about the show.

Speaker 2 (32:38):

Speaker 2 (36:35):
Do you have an answer? Lorena? Yes, Ben alright? It
is Milly Bonnie Brown. Milly Bonnie browns to.

Speaker 7 (36:44):
Be Millie Bobby Brown, but it's Bonnie's.

Speaker 3 (36:46):
That right, Okay, So either way you slice it, it's wrong.
You were wrong the correct answer, believe it or not.
The record was only set about twenty years ago. Larry
Johnson of the City. It's twenty oh six, they had
four hundred and sixteen carries. And last I heard, he

(37:09):
just sends out like crazy stuff on social media now,
but why not?

Speaker 2 (37:13):
That's what social media is for, all right? Here we
go here, we go here. How about that?

Speaker 6 (37:20):
This is one gets grilled.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
All coop duh.

Speaker 1 (37:29):
Lou be With all that has happened to the Mavericks
over the past couple of weeks, do you think that
their misfortune could serve as a turning point for the Suns.

Speaker 3 (37:39):
No, because here's the problem. It's a toxic miss mix.
It's it's like oil and water. It's a it's bleach
and ammonia.

Speaker 2 (37:48):
It just does not it does not go well together.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
So they've got to re restock the roster in Phoenix
and it you know, I know, they beat the Clips
the other night and that's, you know, their big win.
And I I know it's impressive to beat the Clippers,
and people love to beat the Clippers and they matter.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
And all that.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
But no, the Suns they're doom Now they're a little
less doomed because of the Mavericks and their situation. So
there is that, but there's still a warning label biohazard,
do not touch around the Suns at this particular point.

Speaker 1 (38:20):
Next, Gardner Minshew followed up one of his best seasons
in the NFL with one of his worst seasons, and yeah,
he was informed by the Raiders that he will be
released now, Ben, you've you've always been a fan of Minshew.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
That is right, Minshew Mania.

Speaker 7 (38:32):
Do you think he's done getting chances to start.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Looking into my crystal ball? That was the last supper. Yeah,
he is not ever going to get a chance to
start again regularly, and he'll be a backup somebody gets hurt.
I'm gonna say he's not gonna start again, but he'll
never have a situation as good as that was supposed
to be. Remember, they beat the Ravens the Raiders in
Baltimore in week two or I believe it was Week

(38:58):
two or week three of the NFL season, and then
right after that they they lost to Carolina.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
They had an emotion sickness.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
But yeah, I love Minshew and I'll wear my jworts
and all that and my redneck outfit. But no, he's
not going to get another opportunity as a full time starter,
and he'll be lucky to be a backup somewhere.

Speaker 2 (39:16):
It was so bad, and my god, it was horrible.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
Our next Kendrick Perkins is back with another hot take. Yeah,
he's proclaiming that the Nuggets are not a threat in
the West and that they were exposed by the Lakers.

Speaker 7 (39:27):
Now, Ben, is he right about the Nuggets not being
a threat?

Speaker 2 (39:31):
No, I'm not. I'm not going there. And the Nuggets they
have to adjust.

Speaker 3 (39:35):
I mean, that's the whole point of this is that
somebody figures something out and you play like you have constipation,
and you've got to clear out the constipation and figure
things out. And so now it's up to Michael Malone
and the Nuggets to improve. I say, the Lakers, to
their credit, they were able to contain Nikola Jokicic.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
But I'm not.

Speaker 3 (39:56):
I'm not ready to say that. It's only been a
couple of games since that point.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
That seems crazy. I did love charge.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
I don't know if you're watching tn T, but Charles
Barkley unloaded on Kendrick Perkins. It was was pretty entertaining.
Barky's always been anyway, How did we do cool?

Speaker 7 (40:08):
You pass us in the show?

Speaker 9 (40:09):
All right?

Speaker 2 (40:09):
On that that's a letter underlieving. Alright, I get my
trophy right now here we go
