What is the value of these women? I'm Richard Armstrong, back with season two of the podcast, Curse of Miss America. We're talking to participants, whistleblowers, and people who say Miss America didn't live up to their promises. He looks and he goes, you don't look like he suffered an eating disorder. I never received scholarship, I need to pay for my student loans.

Just like you subscribe to the Ben Malish Show podcast. Here in hour number one, what is the word? What is the word for Patrick Mahomes Performance? Or lack thereof with the Chiefs on Sunday night, Kansas City, knocked from the ranks of the unbeaten. Did the Seahawks offense under Sam Donald solve things?

Or is there something else going on? And should the Chiefs be looking to trade for some wide receiver help, and a real snicker in the Sunday night game? We'll talk about all that and more right now. Here it is, our number one, almost scoreless in Seattle. Welcome in the beginning of another week of the Ben Malish Show.

We're kicking it off right now. That's right, just starting. We are in the air everywhere, in partnership, as we get a seat at the table. Coast to coast, border to border, and beyond on the vast and refreshingly powerful microphones of FSR emanating live. We would love to jump.

As we jump in with both feet, Gare-onteed human, and be world famous, Fox Sports Radio Studios where Althe Alien O'Piner. Ferg Dog in Mallor-Pockout, he's Supreme Court justices of the Mallor-Molish who remind me this hour, made possible in part by our friends at Express. Workforce challenges slowing down your business. The Express and Floyment professionals provides workforce solutions to help reduce turnover. Find qualified talent, navigate compliance, and build the right-sized workforce with more than 850 locations.

I told that's a lot. Express is ready to help. Is it ExpressProz.com? That's ExpressProz.com. Now, Jerry, in a jar, mediocre Kabuki, and I believe you've been a helmet man and Bill from Korea Town, they all said, Hey, Mallor, I said, what do you want?

I said, tell me about this Fox one thing. I said, I'll tell you, sure, no problem. There's nothing like live. Now, this fall, every NFL on Fox game streams live on Fox One every Sunday, every rivalry. Miss it live, and you're just watching a highlight.

Don't be that guy. Catch every play as it happens. NFL on Fox streaming on Fox One. You got to check that out. And I know you will.

I know you will. All right, so I'll leave this hour from the Sunday night NFL game in the Pacific Northwest. They made for television classic, which did not live up to the hype. It did not. The week seven NFL card on a Sunday anyway, ending with what was supposed to be a Humdinger of a matchup you had.

Patrick Mahomes, the five and oh chiefs coming in, taking on Sam Donald. And the Seahawks were three and three on the season. Mike Toreko, Chris Collins' worth waxing, Joe Quacious on NBC. So out of your watch, we watched. So you would not have to.

And what we watched was a one man wrecking crew as Jackson Smith and Jigba putting on a show zigging. When the Chiefs were zagging, when the Chiefs were zigging. As he got her done nine catches 150 yards and a touchdown of the partridge in the pear tree. The Seahawks hand the Chiefs their first L. You eat the L.

So Kansas City will not go 17 and oh, they lose the Sunday night game. Sam Donald had 257 yards to score. And as always, just a bonehead interception. He's good for that. He's really good for that.

And Seahawks get the four and three, someone named Emmanuel Wilson, we don't know who that is, but he had a hundred yards and a touchdown in the backfield for the Seahawks. The better story though, is in the losing locker room where Patrick Mahomes was driving the struggle bus for the Chiefs offense. Their Mahomes had just 165 yards passing which I'm told is not good. And an interception the Chiefs dropped a five and one on the season and Kenneth Walker, the third, this is the Kenneth Walker, the third revenge game. Revenge, revenge, yeah.

The Super Bowl MVP had a dud, had a dud there. And as he was held to 36 yards, that's it on 14 carries. And so Andy reads Chiefs with a forgettable night all the way around there. And as they are into the losers column, that is a good jumping off point. Let us discuss the question.

What is the word? What is the word for Patrick Mahomes performance with the Chiefs offense there on Sunday night NFL football? So I've got flippers, Rubik's Cube and Flying J. And we will combine all of these things together. And we are going to give you a tongue lashing is what we're going to do.

Well, literally it's just a radio. It's so simple. It's a radio show. Now, before we get into this, let's hear from Patrick Mahomes, Mahomes. Patrick Mahomes, Chiefs quarterback here.

And he points out that this was not not a masterpiece by the Chiefs. Patrick, do you have to tell Kate the next kid offensively, especially around the midfield area? Kept us away from a lot of points or at least enough points to be competitive. But I stuff you learn from that's obviously a really good defense and we next kid at high enough level that has success. Here's more from Mahomes, the Seahawks defense able to shove their will against the offensive line for the Chiefs and in his result against Mahomes, just Mahomes on the pressure.

Yeah, I mean, obviously a little bit, but I thought especially early in the game, I thought my feet were kind of getting me into trouble where I could have maybe sat in the pocket and made some of the throws down the field. I got better a little bit later in the game. But at the same time, whenever you play a team like that, you can't let them get ahead and kind of get into a game they want to play because obviously they've had a lot of success doing that. And so I'm going to be better starting faster, especially with me and then try to do better throughout the entire game. Well, the good news is you can't start any worse.

You didn't score in the first half of the game. So it's not like you have anywhere like, wow, we score 10 points. No, you score field goal, you're better going for it. Here's Andy Reham, sure Andy will be very satisfied with his performance, right Andy Reham? Yes?

All three phases we struggled with. Oh, we got to do better. Sure. And that's my responsibility. Absolutely.

I take full responsibility for this. We got to play better as a team and tough for this play. But this is all part of it. They got their good football team. They played well, my hat goes off to them.

There's not a whole lot of stats that I can share with you that really make any sense, maybe other than third downs, both sides of the ball. We do a better job with those. But we've got a great locker room here. And the guys will get back in and get themselves ready to play against Good Diver King this next week. So I thought the Chiefs were going to quit and forfeit.

But apparently they're going to keep playing. So that's good news. We'd like to alert all the other NFL fans that the Chiefs are not going to give up. That a bad night is not going to end their season. So we can move on with that.

Back to the question. What is the word, again, what is the word for patching homes and the performance of the Chiefs offense on Sunday night? So my word is alarming, capital A alarming. Every time a Chiefs offense takes the field, you expect to see a lot of magic this year. Last year was a debacle.

You thought, well, this year they've been the top offensive team in the NFL. And you say, OK, so you got the magic. And Sunday night, the rabbit was dead. And the magician lost his hat. That's not good.

Mahomes supposed to be match up. That's the thing that's a little annoying if you're following the NFL. Mahomes is supposed to be match up proof. The human cheat code. And Seattle's a good defense.

Yes, this is not new. We've known Seattle has a good defense. We got that. They also lost to Washington. That's Seahawks defense.

Lost to the team that doesn't even have a name. They've got a generic name. They used to be called the Red Sea Hawks team lost to that court. That's what. So they got that in them.

And you look at this and you're like, my god. So congratulations to Seahawks defense. But that's why Kansas City pays Patrick Mahomes, the GDP of small island nations with his contract and all that. Instead, the Chiefs offense was not doing anything. It was swimming against the tide is what they were doing here.

And they went out and bought. They went to Walmart. They bought some flippers. They bought concrete flippers, which I don't think is a good idea. I don't think it's a good idea to wear concrete flippers.

And they sank to the bottom of Pugin Sound with those on. And so the force field, whatever force field Mahomes has had, there were some cracks there in the windshield. And Seattle, I don't think they exposed any secret formula. It's not like you can just repeat this. It was simply Mahomes look very ordinary.

Now we'll get to the wide receivers because that was part of the problem, but Mahomes is supposed to elevate wide receivers. That clearly did not happen. Now, meanwhile, the other part of this, the story Mahomes looking ordinary and that's a big deal. But this wasn't a bad quarter. It was not like it was a bad quarter.

This was an entire evening of constipation by the offense for Kansas City. So they might want to get out and get some metamucil and try to get that system flowing a little bit because I'm fiber. The offense looking like they were trying to win the Indianapolis 500, except they were racing in a frigid air refrigerator. Good luck winning the Indy 500 if you're racing in a frigid air refrigerator. Now on the Seattle side, page two, did the Seahawks solve their problems?

The Seahawks offense under Sam Donald did. The Seahawks offense under Sam Donald solved things. I would say that's a premature celebration because this is the same exact Seattle team that we've seen in this last couple of years here. Seattle, I don't think they fixed anything. They found a match up that they could exploit and they took advantage of it.

Good for them, there's a massive difference. The Seahawks did not solve the Rubik's Cube, if you will. Jackson Smith and Jig, but just peeled off the stickers and he rearranged the colors on the Rubik's Cube. But he's always been like, I got a last couple of years? That's it.

We go back to the point, great quarterbacks are supposed to elevate average wide receivers and average quarterbacks need great receivers to elevate them. We know which one Sam Donald is. We know that. Donald is the guy who looks great when the restaurant has a five star chef. It's like, wow, this is great.

I love this. You take away that five star chef from the restaurant and Sam Donald serving up microwave frozen dinners. Little TV dinner for you. That's what you got. And Jackson Smith and Jig continues to be the engine.

You mentioned we got hurt. Oh my God. Seattle might not win a game. They might not win a game if he misses an extended period of time. That's it.

But this is the Jackson Smith and Jigba experience featuring Sam Dronis like an opener. The equal comedy club, he got the opener and the main comedian is the one that comes on later. That's JSN at this point. And the chief secondary, my God. Now, Jackson Smith and Jigba is a fine player.

He's one of the top receivers. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. But he does get an assist from the Kansas City secondary that made him look like a little bit of Jerry Rice, a little bit of Randy Moss, Calvin Johnson, Tio, all mixed together, all rolled into one. Nice casserole. And he put a spell, Jackson Smith and Jigba on the KCD fence.

They did play like they were in Goblin mode. There was a lot of Goblin mode. Anyway, here's the head coach of the Seattle football team, Mike and McDonald, who's apparently believes that everything's coming up, Rose is there in Seattle. Little proper team, just a good prolyatic team. The people being great team, they just have each other's backs, pushing each other, and I think we got better.

So it's a great opportunity for the opportunity to be able to set up a football team. So that'll be fun next couple days, and we'll be to work on Chicago. So I guess they didn't have urgency before when they lost to the Broncos and the 49ers and the commanders. But now they have urgency. Can I ask why they didn't have urgency earlier?

We're not supposed to talk about that. That's taboo. Apparently we're not allowed to talk about that. OK, fine. All right.

Again, before we get too carried away, here are the Kansas City chief secondary, which is new and improved. There's some new names there. They've been doing fine. But on this particular night, de-cheveled, staggered, and bedraggled. Our words we can use to describe the chief secondary there.

It looked like they had spent three nights sleeping on the floor at a Greyhound bus station, the way they attempted to tackle Jackson Smith and Jim. Everyone knew where the ball was going, and they still couldn't stop them, which is a pathetic performance by the Kansas City secondary. Now the last word here, considering how inept the wide receivers were for the chiefs, and we're inching closer to the trade deadline. November 10 is the trade deadline. In the NFL, the question is bouncing around the echo chamber.

Should the chiefs be looking to trade for receivers? Should they be trying to upgrade at the receiver position? And the only plausible answer, the only plausible answer, is, hell yes, yepers. You got to do it. I'm nodding my head like a Hawaiian girl dashboard bobblehead on an old Cadillac.

Yes, right? Do it? It's not my chief. I'm not a chief. I'm a Kansas City at six catches, now they've got a couple guys out that are injured.

But Rashi, you rise, and a couple of guys dinged up. But six catches 39 yards from the receivers that played in this game. That is not a winning formula. Fair to say yes, OK, fair to say. And that's bad.

That is bad to the bone. Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. Just nothing. And yeah, my home's supposed to elevate those guys. But if you can't elevate them, if they're so bad, my home's can't elevate them, then go get somebody else in there.

And there was some serious stagnation. It's like a clogged drain at a flying J truck stop bathroom. It was bad. There were a lot of hair and gunk. And I think truck stop fungus.

Our guy was in there, and he stuffed it up. But then my home's does need some artillery here. If the guys that are hurt aren't going to be back any time soon, so they're definitely lacking the wow factor. Not a lot of that going on. So you're asking my home's is listen, turn the chicken feathers into chicken salad.

On this night, he was unable to do that. But if you're Brett Vich, the GM in Kansas City, you got to go out and go to the superstore and see what you can find. And the cupboards are bare. There's not a lot out there. The names that are being bandied about are not the most exciting names.

They're just not. The issue is the chief's receiving room is being held together by a little bit of duct tape and some bubble gum. And I think they've got some of Andy Reid's mustache wax from a couple years ago. It was laying around for some reason. They're using that to help prop up the wide receiver room.

But the names, the biggest names that are out there are Jerry Judy from the Jetsons. And then Brian Thomas, Jr. and Epic Bust from Jacksonville. Those are the two names that are most prominently mentioned. So good luck.

Those seem like squirt guns to me. And the chiefs have a lot of squirt guns right now. It is the Ben Mallor Show. We're going to open up the phone lines for the first time. This week, always remember the first time you open up the phone lines.

If you'd like to be part 87799 on Fox 877-996-369, also on X at Ben Mallor. He's the day. That's at Ben Mallor can be part of the live program. Not as we talked all about the Sunday night game. We have four hours to break down as many of the games as we can break down.

And we will break down so many of them. However, we can't break them all down. So we will allow you the opportunity to call up and screenshot, yell all that good stuff at 877-999 on Fox. Also on X at Ben Mallor. That's at Ben Mallor if you'd like to be part of the program.

So the master plan, it's all about globe trekking. What is that? What are you talking about? We'll explain what that's about. We'll get to it.

We'll take your calls. We will do it. Next, be sure to catch live edition so the Ben Mallor show weekdays at 2 AM Eastern, 11 PM Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio app. Welcome to Football Doesn't I? Hi, I'm Bill Parcels.

And I'm Catherine Zazzora. I have a lot of experience in the game of football, Catherine. And I'm learning the game with Bill's help. Every week, we're going to talk about the NFL slate through the lens of Bill's expertise as he coaches me from novice fan to football expert over the course of the season. You know, I'm looking forward to this show, Catherine.

And hopefully, we can give our audience a little in-depth look into the inner sanctum of Pro Football that they can't get anywhere else. Tune in every Thursday for unfiltered stories from Coach Parcels, analysis on the state of the modern game and education on how football really works. Continuity is very important. But what happens when you get good coaches on your staff and people begin to recognize them, then they want to hire them. And then you can't stop a guy from trying to improve himself, but you have to replace them.

Because once you understand what's going on inside the mind of the coaches, you'll understand more about the whole game. So all aspects can be discussed. The only thing I haven't done, because I didn't have enough money, I don't own the team. I never owned the team.

If there's a million times more digital intelligence than there is biological intelligence, it's hard to imagine humans being in control in that scenario.

I'm Walter Isaacson, host of the new podcast, The Builders. Right now, living through an AI arms race. So I went directly to the people shaping that future. Elon Musk, Jerry O. Homodat, Alex Carr, Favey Lee, Omar Laki, because I wanted to understand what the most consequential builders believe, what they feel, and where they think this is all headed.

Silicon Valley is always saying the cliche thing about the way to predict that future is to create it. Well, yeah, it's up to us. But when you say us, who's us? Is it 400 people that you know in Silicon Valley? Is it me down here in New Orleans?

They're brilliant, controversial. And they're already shaping the future. The question is, who's imagination? Do we want to live it? This is going to determine the fate of nations and economies and the future of humanity.

Listen to the Builders on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or every Get to Podcast. There are thousands of podcasts that can tell you how to better yourself. Get worse with Kyle Brew is not one of those podcasts. So if you're interested in getting thinner, going to therapy, starting peptide setting boundaries, taking supplements, making your better, getting closer, then I would humbly recommend other podcasts. But if you're interested in Blackmail Love Bomb and Cloning Yourself or getting revenge, then we've got a little something, something for a dastardly individual like you.

Take a listen to some of the incredible advice we've given so far. Fake a back injury. Get the spray tan up your alcohol consumption. Only women should be allowed to have guns. Kill him.

Kill him. Kill him. Listen, it's already over. I'm all about lying if it's something that really happened. The next time a bear is running at you, you just calmly stop what you're doing.

You look the bear in the eye and you say, this isn't you. Do not preserve relationships. You don't need them. You only need one thing and that's the Get worse podcast. Listen to Get worse with Kyle Brew on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

For more than a century, miss America's sold the country a fantasy. Well, are you ready ladies? Here we go. But over the past decade, the crown's been slipping. They said goodbye to swimsuits now.

Hello to lawsuits. I'm Brigitte Armstrong. Last season, we took you inside the world of America's Next Top Model. Now I'm back with season two of this podcast, Curse of Miss America. Investigating the rise, fall, and uncertain future of one of America's most iconic institutions.

The Miss America patent. I never received scholarship money to pay for my student loans. He looks and he goes, you don't look like you suffered a needing disorder. It's great, but it looks too ethnic. It's a story the Miss America organization really doesn't want to sell.

An exploitation of all of us, is treated by the Miss America organization as an attack on this America itself. Listen to the curse of Miss America on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get to podcast. Hey, I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty. We're Armstrong and Getty.

We've been trying to figure out how to describe what is Armstrong and Getty on demand for many years. I'm going to give it a shot. So most media is either a gender driven. They intentionally lead parts out or they lie to you. Or they're so shallow.

And boring. You don't learn anything anyway. We try to get to the bottom of the stories that are shaping our worlds and help you understand what's actually happening. The Armstrong and Getty show practically perfect in every way. I really like it's so I've been listening for over 10 years.

I'll always be an editor and editor and for it. The show is a collection of silly, serious, and irreverent musings of the day. Deleriously balanced with more than just a pinch of sarcasm. Whether it's on the left or the right, if somebody does something or says something stupid, they're going to call it out and I love that. I love it.

Keep up the great work. I'm rocking with Andy. So I'm going to try sometimes entertaining you learn something. Where do I do it? Listen Armstrong, you get the on demand on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Bemaller Show Fox Sports Radio as we roll on and on and on. If you'd like to support the show, the fifth hour podcast every weekend, a labor of love. That's what it says in the copy Friday, Saturday and Sunday new episodes, a rollicking good time on the mailbag as Robbie the Mariner fan returned from the Pacific Northwest joined by Scotty on the pike, making his debut on the mailbag to find job. So check that out. That's on the Sunday edition of the fifth hour.

Don't listen now. We're doing the radio show, but the mail is boring. Daytime shows around. There's nothing to listen to. Then check out the fifth hour podcast whenever you want, except not right now because we're doing a live show, yes?

Meanwhile, 87799 on Fox. That's 8779966369. Go on X at Ben Maller. That's it. And you can also be part of the show that way.

So little arena FSR Tech Queen, who at all Bronco fan, your comments can't be used against you in the court of sports radio. Trucks off fungus, right since this makes no sense to interview these coaches athletes when all you get is every cliche and the sun. Nope, I completely agree with you, but the people that run television, the morons who run television, these geniuses are like, Oh, no, we got to get our money's worth. We've got to get the jocks on complete waste of time. One out of a thousand is any good.

The level of meat head nonsense from these guys is to infinity and beyond. I completely agree with you. Chuck stop fungus. And they go out of the way to not say anything and every once in a while they f up, but does that really make it worthwhile for the 999 other times? You're wasting your time.

DJ Spin from San Diego writes and he says, Hello, Benjamin, I pulled out a 1980s radio, put four sea batteries in and I'm listening tonight. It doesn't help. There you go. Calm down, DJ Patrick. Come on.

That's cool. It is like a 1980s vintage radio. I love that it's still it's still worse. Although I thought they changed a lot of that stuff. I thought the technology changed a little bit since the 1980s.

Diego boy writes and says the chief's wide receivers suck and Brett Veach better be looking. He said cooking on a receiver, but let's not forget the barbecue chicken alert. He says, I mean, you're speaking in some weird Klingon language here. Yeah, no, Stradina's right. He says spot on Mallor the Seahawks.

While it was a nice night, that is not a sustainable formula. And Sam Donald really did f up in the touch of the pass in the end zone. It should have been a touchdown for Seattle and said, we speak up. I'm proud of you. No, sir.

You're coming around a little bit. Baltimore free loader account, right? And says nobody is running on the table, not even Casey. I know he's running the table, not even Casey while the Ravens choked again. And you can't blame this on Harbaugh and Lamar.

The AFC is still wide open unless you're a few of the bottom feeders speaking of feeding. Where can I get a free meal right now? We can always pretend it's your birthday, but you have to go on an app and we tried this with weed man hippie when it was his birthday. We tried to get him some free food and it was a bit of a mess because everything needed you to fill out 17 different web pages and all that stuff. And so it was a bit of a.

Yeah, I put on Tuesday. You're going to try to get all your free meals. Yeah, I know I know I some coffee shops do it. Yeah, there's a lot of places that will do it. The problem is they want you to be app members now.

Yeah, they want to track you. So you are the product. If you don't mind having all your personal information being given to your favorite restaurant, then you're fine. You'll get a free free drink. You get a nice little free drink and you get maybe some fries and then they'll track you everywhere you go.

They'll know every movement you make and they'll have all your information. Yeah, FEMI writes it says, man, how about them Vikings? Are you on the bandwagon yet? Defense wins championships. Oh my God.

The Vikings be the first undefeated team that has to go out and trade for a quarterback. Holy crap. Oh my God. Kyler Murray. Wow.

He blows. I know you'd be bad. I didn't realize you'd be this bad. My God, they got a trade for a quarterback and they don't have a quarterback. You can't take them seriously.

Yeah. Yacht Rock Tom writes in from parts of noises. The LA teams aren't exactly playing lights out in the sports gambling rig league. Vegas is lousy, but I wouldn't celebrate if you're a charger or Rams fan. Listen, listen, non sequerter, Tom.

I didn't mention the Rams or the Chargers. I don't know why you would bring them up. I have no idea. Al, the alien opiner, right? Since it's after the weekend kerfluffle with the fifth hour, I ended up listening to an ancient episode of the mailbag and hit the trifecta.

Gagon ripped Lee off the top into a letter from Ima Pilot. Next up was Tammy ripping Helen and Stu and Helen and Stu rebuddy. Yeah. And they're all gone. Isn't that great Al?

That's an old episode of the podcast. We've not heard from Helen and Stu in a long time. I don't know what happened to him. Tammy doesn't participate in the show anymore. Gagon retired to Florida.

He eats the early bird special. Lee doesn't work at the company anymore. They're all gone. All those people are gone. They've all moved on somewhere else.

So there you go. Just a few years ago. That was not that long ago. Michael and Tulsa writes in. He says, Ben, I'd like to thank Harrison Bucker for helping pilot the vomit comet of my Kansas city chiefs.

I forget about trading for wide receivers. How about a new kicker? That was a body blow when Darnall coughed up a furball as he usually does. And then the Seahawks got, which should be just a gift three points to end the first half. And then the idiot kicker was unable to get it done.

It's a bad job by them. Who else we have? Let's see here. Can't read that. Michael Luth says, how about them Seahawks?

Sam Darnall leads into a victory, which now makes the Vikings the only undefeated team. But if you had $1,000 of money to bet on a team doing the super ball, you could have the Vikings or the field. Would you take the Vikings? Hell no. You wouldn't take the Vikings.

It's got all the phones and a man who's celebrating because they won and over. Who are they? The Giants moving man, Matt is checking in. Hello, moving man, Matt. Welcome.

Do we have a quarterback controversy? Where? What are we talking about? What are we? I mean, when Dart comes back, I mean, what's going to happen here?

Is this, you know, look, JJ's looking good. Yes, yes. As long as he can stop playing right now, not playing anymore, he's really solid, solid. The Giants, like I said, they're going to win that division. They're going to be slightly over 500.

The time is going to help. And then it'll lose the Seattle in the first round, plan it. No, Seattle's going to be a first round. They're not going to get a buy. Seattle's going to be a first round opponent.

Correct. Okay. So who's going to pass the Seattle by? The Francisco. Oh, the 49.

Okay. Yeah, they lost it. They lost it to the Falcons. That's how it's going to go. Well, we don't need to watch then.

You figured it all out. We're good. The fact that here's got to move up. Call for a personal file for playing a position of running back. Yes, that is on my big board here.

It's kind of put his head down, which I guess you can't do even though there's is not how you play football. If you're engaging as an offensive player, don't you put your head down? Isn't that normally how you put my call slot would have had eight million yards in penalties and today it's NFL. Yeah. I don't get it.

They're trying to try to walk a tightrope the NFL. They're like, well, we got to find these guys for playing football, but we want to sell you football. We want you to buy football and where you headed by the way, Matt, where you go? I can actually report that I literally all you know of this call just past a place that was the site of a Malar meet and great this summer. Well, it's all right.

Beautiful ballpark. We were what was a mini meet and greet, but I threw out the first pitch. Great. This first pitch of all time and Anthony Volpe, the Yankees was forced to watch me throw out the first pitch because he was playing triple eight at the time. So for the Yankees, Stratton Wilkesbury.

So there is that. All right, Matt, check it out. I know you've got your J.J. McCarthy jersey on order. So that'll be here in a couple of days.

So congratulations. It's nice to not suck. All right. That's true. They don't suck.

Thank you. The great movie man. He's got the mobile Mallard billboard coming through a city near you. He's got the Ben Mallard show on the big rig in a couple of spots there. It is a must see if you're in the Mallard militia.

You got to check it out. You got to check it out. All right. Screws right since it says, how about my orators baby? We're back.

They are who we thought they were tremendous. But all those all those are Raider guys. They all figured out the dumbest people in the world, the Raider fanboys. I love this job. People say, why are you saying?

I'm talking about 25 years. I'm talking about that now. They're doing sports talk radio. And then it's interactions with complete knuckle dragging the end of fall Raider fans that I love. And these idiots, they got off to a three and I'll start these more on.

Oh, we're going. We're going. We're going. We're back. No, you're not dummy.

I love it. It's so good. Oh my God. I live for that. I live for those moments.

I need all the buttches. The cockroaches hiding behind the fridge. Cowards front running losers front running losers. The Raider fan boy. Are you at Mike?

Oh, yeah. We had tough guys. Come on. Call right now tough guys. I like losers losers.

Life is right. Everything's where it needs to be. The Raiders are back to being the Raiders. Oh, your daddy's Raiders. Those are your granddad's Raiders.

Those are your great-granddad's Raiders. That greatness. I'm stuck for that. That's going to Dominican Mike who is up next. He is a traveling man.

He's back now. What's going on Dominican Mike? He's been all over the place. What's going on, Mike? Hey, I'm going to be a bit better man.

I'm in San Francisco right now. My way back home. I was in Washington City for a couple of days, you know, and I have to apologize. I really hope you haven't reached out for the best hour bail back of my email. Inside your email like in weeks.

You're back and maybe we'll get you on the next week. I got you all right. Very good. Actually, I had an issue with a story like yours where they double book by seat. You had a story where you were.

Yes, yes. I almost got arrested in Memphis because they double booked the seat. I know I had to. I had a thank you to H.M. I have a super power course that you know about.

I know. I know. I have a super power actually. I have to say my seat. I do not have the same super power.

So I went to coach. That's what I did. I'm here in my first class. Yeah, but it was great. Like I said, it would be in a freshman city.

You know, and I was away from sports for the most part because of the race. I mean, I have to have a year in Tampa and I saw the loss, you know, the loss of games and this and that. And so I'm just glad to be back in the States and I'm glad to be able to call you to life. It is so hard to call you life and live in Florida. I was never known.

It's so hard to call you to life. You know what I'm saying? No, no. I got you. What's on your flight by the way?

You're taking a red eye? Yes, I'm taking a red eye. And also on the fifth hour by the way, it is safe to go to Mexico too. I don't understand why people so scared that it is safe to go to Mexico. As some of you common sense, people on our state, Mexico city, say, I can't go to say, you know, yeah, I feel I feel so people were I got an email from guys all freaked out about man, but I felt all right there.

Yeah, well, it was great. I'm glad you finally got to go. I'm glad you actually met the country for once. I know I don't know. I normally just get a state but I do need to do more of that.

Well, you've been all over the place. My God, I'm jealous. Literally all over the place. Everywhere in the world. I've been so glad to go back home.

Okay. All right, that's a great Dominican Mike. All right. There you go. He's back.

Got the red eye flight and he's on his way back to Florida. It's fine. Probably take off a little after midnight. I think I get back to Florida. It's like a five hour flight.

So I'll probably be in the car by eight a.m. Eastern time. Yeah, depending how much luggage he has. I have a little situation. I'm sure.

Sure. He'll be all right. Well, hey, the barnstorming. How about the barnstorming as Aaron Rogers played didn't play all that great. The Pittsburgh football team won another clunker of a game against the Saints.

Tremendous job by New Orleans. Do not score in the second half failing to cover the spread. Aaron Rogers though, claimed that the NFL back in the COVID year, the NFL discussed having all 32 teams play 16 games in 16 international locations during one week of the season. Having a global takeover of the NFL barnstorming. Rogers said the proposal was considered during the collective bargaining agreement conversation back in 2020.

He was the Packers player representative at the time. Rogers of course criticized the NFL owners for prioritizing a 17th time. With regular season game and additional revenue over the international week concept and all that the original idea. According to Rogers, they would have a 16 game regular season two by weeks, including one associated with international travel. Rogers endorsed bringing NFL football to more countries.

No, isn't the plan Rogers is planning on leaving the United States is not one of the rumors on the Internet that I read somewhere he's going to leave when he's done playing and go live abroad with his fake wife somewhere else. So there you go. The day and if I am fascinated by this because it does not seem the rest of the world gives a rat's ass about our football. It's kind of like in I go to Vegas every once in a while, I don't go as much because they charge $30 for parking, get most of those hotels and strips. So screw them.

So I stopped going as much. But in Vegas, they have that F1 race. Nobody in America cares about F1. They put it there because they they're trying to spread F1 to America. So they put the race in Vegas and everyone's like, well, this sucks.

It ruins the strip experience and it's a waste. But they do it. Roger Goodell. And he was at London, Paris, Dublin, Dubai, coming soon. Jacksonville just playing different in different countries pretty much every week if they could.

So there you go. All right, it's a Ben Mallor show. Time down for the who am I game. And this is where we pretend to be somebody else and you can figure out who we are and answer this on X at Ben Mallor since the start of last season. I have a miserable three and 11 record against the spread when my team is favored during the regular season, making me the least profitable quarterback for better is in the NFL.

Again, since the start of last season, I have a miserable three and 11 record against the spread when my team is favored during the regular season, making me the least profitable quarterback for better is in the NFL. Since the start of last season, who am I? That is the question. We'll get to it and we'll do it next. Be sure to catch live edition of the Ben Mallor show weekdays at 2 AM Eastern 11 PM Pacific.

If there's a million times more digital intelligence than the race biological intelligence, it's hard to imagine humans being in control of an scenario. I'm Walter Isaacson, host of the new podcast The Builders. Right now, living through an AI arms race.

So I went directly to the people shaping that future. Elon Musk, Dario Amadek, Alex Carr, Fei-Fei Lee, Palmer Lucky, because I wanted to understand what the most consequential builders believe, what they feel and where they think this is all headed. Silicon Valley is always saying the cliche thing about the way to predict the future is to create it. Well, yeah, it's up to us. But when you say us, who's us?

Is it 400 people that you know in Silicon Valley? Is it me down here in New Orleans? They're brilliant, controversial. And they're already shaping the future. The question is, who's imagination do we want to live in?

This is going to determine the fate of nations and economies and the future of humanity. Listen to the builders on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or ever get your podcasts.

Now I'm back with season two of this podcast, Curse of Ms. America, investigating the rise, fall, and uncertain future of one of America's most iconic institutions. The Miss America pageant. I never received scholarship money to pay for my student loans. Can you look at any goes?

You don't look like you suffered a needing disorder. It's great, but it looks too ethnic. The story of this American organization really doesn't want us to do. An exploitation of all of this America's is treated by the Miss America organization as an attack on Miss America itself.

Hey, I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty. We're Armstrong and Getty. We've been trying to figure out how to describe what is Armstrong and Getty on demand for many years. I'm going to give it a shot.

So most media is either a gender-driven. They intentionally lead parts out or they lie to you. Or they're so shallow. And boring. You don't learn anything anyway.

We try to get to the bottom of the stories that are shaping our world and help you understand what's actually happening. The Armstrong and Getty show practically perfect in every way. I really like it. I've been listening for over 10 years. I'll always be an avid listener and veteran for it.

The show is a collection of silly, serious, and irreverent musings of the day. Hilariously balanced with more than just a pinch of sarcasm. Whether it's on the left or the right. If somebody does something or says something stupid, they're going to call it out. And I love that.

I love it. I'm rocking with Angie. So give it a try sometimes entertaining you learn something. Where do I do this? Listen to Armstrong, you get a on-demand on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.
