  • Ben’s the Best! Thanks for taking my first time call!

    Best sports talk show in America… Wether it’s YouTube, cable or the radio, hands down best talk show. “The View” can’t even sniff his jock😜

  • Not as good as it used to be.

    The show has declined a lot. IHeart canned Eddie Garcia, they moved Danny G off the show and now have this LeReina who never stops interrupting the show with cringe content. The woke management thought a late night guys show would want this, we do not.

    Scott Shapiro should be fired for this.

  • Exceptional

    Ben Maller possesses the most creative mind in radio. His endless stream of wit and mind bending analogies strains the English language to the breaking point. His merry band of “Maller militia” arrive fully baked from a Fellini movie. Together they make the Baba ganoush. Tune in for a taste.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 2 - Big Day at the Factory
Q: How did Deshaun Watson's apology land with the Cleveland fan base?
The host characterized the apology as performative PR, designed to placate fans and secure his QB1 status, rather than a genuine reckoning with past statements.
Hour 2 - Big Day at the Factory
Q: What did Todd Monken say about the decision to start Watson over Sanders?
Monken framed the choice as based on the entire off-season evaluation and training camp, but the host treated it as signaling ownership influence and a strategic ploy rather than a pure football decision.
The Fifth Hour: Marcel in Brooklyn Mailbag!
Q: What was your biggest on-air break or notable moment in your early career?
Marcel describes breaking Titanic as a news story on Fox Sports Radio and how that moment set the tone for his credibility and memorable status in sports radio.
Hour 3 - A Trip to Rodgers' World
Q: Are you surprised that Aaron Rodgers was not punished or rebuked by the Steelers for his live television rant about Dr. Fauci and Dianna Russini?
Yes, the host expresses surprise and discusses the Steelers' measured stance, ultimately framing it as a result of allowing individual perspectives within a diverse locker room.
Hour 3 - A Pirate's Life For Me
Q: There were only four players in the NFL with 10,000 plus receiving yards in the 2000s. Is that too much or not enough?
Six players actually achieved that milestone, so the proposed figure was not enough; the correct number was higher and the caller Mark in Austin wrapped up the quiz with a Golden Ticket.
