Whether you're looking for the performance of a camera, the versatility of Arab 4, the efficiency of a Corolla, or all electric driving in the BZ. There's a Toyota that's just right for you. And with great deals across the lineup, now's the time to find yours. But hurry, these deals won't last long. Toyota's easy choice sales event and soon. We make it easy. Toyota, let's go places. Ah, yes, happy hump day everybody. This is the world famous Ben and Skin Show. Good morning everybody. It's bright and early. It's not really bright. It's just early. Get your ass up, get out of bed, start your day with us. Thank you for doing that. I'm Ben Rogers.

I sound like this. He's Jeff's getting weighed. He sounds like this. Good morning everybody. He's Kevin KT, tear down Turner. And he sounds like this. Howdy folks. And she's Christina K. Ray, Little Baby Cornbread Ray. And she sounds like this. Good morning. Good morning. Yeah, we're often running. You guys notice anything different about me? No. I was shocked. Dong reduction surgery. Oh, yes. That's what I noticed. Yeah. I noticed that this past weekend. No, I shaved my beard for the first time since I think 2011, 2012 maybe 2010. I don't think I started working with you guys in 2013. And I don't think I've ever known you to be a clean shave and fella. Yeah, I've never seen you with no beard. Ever. First time. Yeah, no. It's shocking. I thought that we did. I thought that we did the, I'm the first Rogers family member to grow a beard segment on the fan. But I think it would have been the first year of the fan. Yeah. 2013 maybe. Yeah. 2012, 2013. When I walked in this morning just, you know, I was up, man.

But usually you just like, so early in the morning everyone scattered and you're just doing a bunch of crap. And I was, you know, head down and moving my things around. And then when I finally looked up and talked to Ben, you know, I had a discourse with him after three minutes. I'm talking to him. Did you say discourse? Yes. Three minutes of discourse with Ben after talking to him for three minutes. I finally looked up and made eye contact with him and, you know, and I went, oh my god, what happened to you? It's crazy, dude. He looked so much younger. Yeah. Is it because it got too hot then? No, no, not at all. I'm going to be hot regardless. I suffer from big man heat. No, I just, you know, I just, I had a health scare recently. We lost a buddy. And I just needed a change. I needed to switch it up a little bit. And every time I've been saying this for a while and looking at my beard, I'm just so much gray in it. It's just all gray and scraggly, you know, and I'm just like, man, I don't need all this. Silver fox, though, man.

You can just, I think I would like it better if it was all silver. You know, like if it was the fully silver beard and silver hair, I think I would dig that. But the salt and pepper fox didn't do anything for you. Salt and pepper fox. I don't have any gray in my hair, though. It's amazing, dude. You're here almost. You're talking about this as fast as I was like, just bend, die as hair. It's like, I do. It looks like it did in high school. I, I dye my hair and I have a two pay. And it's hard to get the beard to pay to match. It's more of a merkin that you have to strap on. I, like, what are you saying? Well, if you have no beard, you can't, you can see the strap on. Well, you strap it on around your ears. Oh, okay. The merkin beard. Yeah. Okay, that makes a lot of sense. Yeah. Dude, the, the, you know, when, for most people, if they have a beard, the gray and the silver, whatever will come into the beard first. And then the areas where it hasn't gone gray yet are so splotchy and bad. I mean, I do the same thing every morning.

I look at my beard and go, do I need to shave this thing off? I try to keep it short. I hope to minimize it that way. But I don't, I've, I thought about shaving. I couldn't pull the trigger. And now that you've done it, I'm definitely not going to do it because I don't want people to think I'm jumping your wagon. Yeah. Yeah. It's a tough call. I just needed to make a change. And man, when I, I had vertigo, I thought I was going to die. I really didn't think it was, I thought it was going to be a brain tumor or something horrible. And I feel so lucky. And so I feel like it's a second chance. I don't know. I just needed to switch it up. I love it. I think it's great. So I'm a fan. I just think it's crazy, man. Like, can I do this like sometimes? So I get a full beard and then shave it all off. And you guys go, whoa, did you get a haircut or whatever? Yeah. And now I'm thinking of just either trimming or maybe I need to do this too. Maybe we should go clean. It's because I don't, I mean, I just don't like the time it takes to trim your beard every couple days. I may grow it right back.

I don't know. I just, I noticed that it's not seen sun in like 12 years. I know it was like super white. Yeah. I've been shielded from the sun the whole time. Yeah. I know. I always feel that way. I'm like, okay, now my skin, my arms are like way darker than my face is. You know, I don't know. It's for me. It's either way it's bad. It's either helping me hide a double chin or it's just so much gray hair that I look 90. So it's a tough call. Man, it's, it underscores the basic premise that getting old sun. I know some medicine for that. There's no better time than today for you to go get a face tattoo. I could get a beard tattoo. Oh, that'd be nice. Oh, that'd be great. Oh, that'd be great. It would never be great. Straight brown, back, straight black. That would suck. Yeah, that would lose that. I'd have a beard tattoo your whole life. Sorry to bring a Eric Mark for the second time in like two weeks, but when Ben and I were

at live 105 three, our producer had laser hair removal surgery on his neck so that he always had the same beard line. Okay. And it was the strangest decision of young person. Back then, I think he did it as an endorsement. I really do. Wow. And I was just like, that is a really bold decision of making your 20s. Yeah. Okay. You do you, baby? Yeah. I don't know. By getting rid of my beard, I have removed like most of the gray from above my neck, you know, above my shoulder. So I don't know. It's weird. It's shocked my family too. They're like, what on earth has happened? That was my next question because my boyfriend, he'll warn me before he shaved his beard. Yeah. Because he doesn't do it often either, but he'll do it like once a year or so. Yeah. And he'll just let me know Christina, because he knows I don't like it. And I'm going to shave this all off. It'll be a week and he'll grow back. So did you warn your wife at all or did you just? Yeah. I talked to her about it.

I had pictures. I have that app where I could give people moustache or beards and put them on or off. And I was looking at it and she was like, I don't think she wanted me to do it, but she was like, yeah, I do it. You know, that kind of thing. And I had a moustache. I tried it with a moustache, but man, I look so gay. Why would you go with that look? I know. That's why I wanted it. That's why I tried to do it. But I mean, I looked like I was in a queen cover band. So I'll do the whole thing if I'm ever going to change up my look or whatever. I'll tell the wife and she'll say, you know, I don't care. And then if I do it, I can see in her face that she cares. She does care. Right? It's just written all over her face. It's just the disapproval. It's overwhelming. Yeah. That's constant for me. So I can't tell if she's disapproving because of this or just in general, probably just in general. All right. We are often running and I'm way more aerodynamic when I fight coming up next. It's the morning news dump where you're going to take us, Katie. Yeah. I have a small weener.

He tried to fix it and things went bad. Next on Lone Star 92. Good morning, everybody. It's the Ben and skin show on Lone Star 92. Five big week for us. We're doing our first Friday lunch show at Pluckers, Lower Greenville and I'm sorry, Lower Greenville, Lover's Lane right there. It's the OG location in Dallas. So every other Friday this football season, we're going to be doing our show House of Haymaker. It's our from our sports network. We'll do our Friday House of Haymaker live at a different Pluckers. It's a big coming together of Pluckers, Lone Star and the Haymaker network and you can be there and we're going to have some giveaways. We're going to have delicious chicken wings beer. You name it. Make plans to be with us for lunch Friday 11 o'clock at the Pluckers on Lover's and Greenville. Also sometime during the course of the show today, we're giving away ZZ top tickets. We're coming to Toyota Music Factory October 4th. Be listening for your chance to win. But right now it's time for this. Professional news. Elequently delivered by professional news professionals. It's time for the morning news dump.

It was a 43 year old fella and he was on vacation, right? He's actually a bit of an influencer. He's got lots of followers and things like that. How old are you guys? 43 years old. Okay. And he's on vacation. He's in Bangkok. Oh, nothing. He's staying at a Marriott. Does that Americanize it for you? I think you can get some Marriott points there at the Bangkok Marriott. I think Bangkok is this suspicious place. I think if you're going there, he's an American going there, right? You know what? It's not clear because his name is ego you be rebo. Oh, yeah, that's very American. And I think that if you go there, I don't know, man, I just think if you're going there, there's a reason you're up to something. You're up to something. There's a motive. There's something happening there. Maybe mail order bride or a specific nuanced category that you're looking to enjoy.

Is it there a song called One Night in Bangkok? Yes. There's also a Murray head or something. There's also a Nick Cage movie called Bangkok Dangerous. I don't really? Yeah. Is it good? Pretty damn good. I think it holds up. Yeah, absolutely. So the situation here is he's, he went to have an operation done. He wanted to have penis enlargement surgery. Let's go. But you got to go to Thailand for that. He specifically go there for that. No, it's just on vacation. And why not get that while I'm there? So he was there embarrassed and then looked into it while he was there. Like a point of purchase decision. The mail order bride said, I'll pass. So he has, again, this guy had like 700,000 followers and was doing lots of videos and stuff. This guy, he had a big follow. That's a big follow. In fact, he was, so he has a surgery.

I'll explain something in a minute. Are all the followers small peeing people? Maybe dude. Maybe that was his lane. Micro peeing highway. So he goes to get a massage after the surgery happens like a day after. And then he starts complaining of chest pains and then he has a heart attack. Oh, so in this article I was reading, they're explaining how doctors are telling people like, don't go get the surgery. Like we do not approve it yet. I know there's a lot of people who are championing that, but just wait. Do not get it yet. Is it like a cadaver dome? Is it like a replacement dome? That's a great man named cadaver dome. Now this guy's nickname was tiny. So maybe he didn't, but he listened. He had a 1.1 million dollar mansion in Los Angeles. I'm watching. He had an apartment in London for $600,000. So he had multiple, he's just living this life flying around everywhere with a small weaner. He was doing great. Had a wife that he went in 2022 and she's pretty thick.

What do you mean? Then give me a number of notes. Oh, wow. Okay. It's big. Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. She's getting ready for football season. She looks unsatisfied. Yeah. She feels like, yeah. Right. So he dies, which is terrible. And we're not laughing at that ever and wouldn't. But he was buried in a gold coffin. They cost $600,000. Good. That's, you just want to take your money with you. You're like, everyone. That is insane. Yeah. When somebody just dig in there and steal it. Yeah. You think so? You think so. Take it to a pawn shop. Who I've wondered into a pawn shop and see the gold coffin before me like, man, how much for that? No, this might be too scientific. Realistically, you're having that surgery because you're an inch. You're a centimeter. Like what are you? I don't know. I just moved over half a hundred.

No, you're a kind doll. You're a kind doll. Yeah. What's the plan? Like, what are you going in just for, you know, just if, give me four inches. Do you want eight? Are you going 15 inches? Like what is the, I just wonder how they price it? It's very interesting. It's got to be up to that full back galley's with, right? Yeah. Doesn't he consult with her? Well, that's, that's, it's exactly like my beard thing. If I, you know, if you ask your wife, hey, do you think I should do this? And she's like, yes, get it. Go big. If you decide not to, there's no coming back, right? Right. What about my thing? I love your sweetest. And it sucks because this is kind of like women can get boob surgeries done. Like we can get a boob job, but you guys can't do anything about that. I thought I had a good opportunity till I heard the story. Yeah. I need to pay off as the mansion. I got a mansion in tons of followers and lots of fame in that world. The prices I have to have a small winner. Yeah.

All right. There you have it. Rest in peace. That was a movie. He's touching. He's very touching. He's holding coffin.

And with great deals across the lineup, now's the time to find yours. But hurry, these deals won't last long. Toyota's easy choice sales event ends soon. We make it easy. Toyota, let's go places. So they still do the Miss America pageant apparently. And guess what? The great state of Texas is now the home of Miss America. Was she like a mom? I thought I saw some story where we had the first Miss America that had kids.

Her name is Reagan Hutsle from Houston and I don't know about the kid thing, but this is the first time in 50 years that Texas has won. Wow. The fourth time Miss Texas has won. Yeah, so I don't know what the kid thing that I'm not even made that up. Oh, yeah, she's pretty. Okay. Well, yeah, that's strange that Miss America is pretty. Well, and they got rid of the swimsuit competition, right? They took that out. They did. Now I know only family. They did last year before me too, honestly. Is that right? Yeah. What's her name? Reagan Hutsle. Reagan Hutsle. I hate. I hate. So yeah, she is pretty. That's crazy. How did they come up with a pretty one? They have a picture of her looking over her shoulder. I'm sorry. In an evening gown. She said she is. Oh, beyond excited and proud. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm just misread that. She's going to celebrate it. One of her favorite Mexican restaurants. There you go. Very important note. Which one? Panchos. You should get a poncho's and fly the flag.

You're now Miss America. I'll take more beans. Miss America. As they are now discussing changing New Mexico into America now. What? It's a discussion. They should be. Well, you know the moon is ours now. Who? You know that? That was the moon of America. We claimed the moon. Yes. We claimed the moon. All of our American constellations. USA Big Dipper. America Little Dipper. So instead of going in depth on how she won or what the questions were that she answered, let's go back to 2008. Yeah. Miss South Carolina was asked a very, very tough question. She was put on the spot in my opinion. And this is back when they aired this on National TV. Don't really do that anymore. And this is so unfair because she had just learned how to talk. Yeah. They aren't young when they do this. So here we go. Miss South Carolina from 2008. Recent polls have shown a fifth of Americans can't locate the US on a world map.

Why do you think this is? I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have mounts. And I believe that our education, like such as South Africa and Iraq everywhere like such as. I believe that they should our education over here in the US should help the US or should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and Asian countries. So we will be able to build up our future for. Thank you very much. South Carolina. Mario, at the end. I think I'd forgotten that she had the four hour children off my because she was pulled away. Right. We able to build up our future for. Thank you very much. South Carolina. That's enough. That's enough. So I did that with the tranquilizer dart. Tugging her arm and like showing her the way of where to go kind of pushing her way. For a minute, I thought she was going to go down the path of raising money for people

that live in a map desert because some people do not have maps. Do you think she could locate the United States of America or the Iraq? The Iraq. And so jazz. I guess. How do you guys think she's doing now? I bet she looks good. Still. How many years has it been? Two thousand eights been 18 years. Yeah, I bet she's still got a fastball. Um, was that Miss USA team? Uh, those 2007. No, no, Miss, yeah, I was Miss teen USA. I was going to say, yeah. No, but that's okay. I thought she was 18. I think she was 14. She's 37 now. Let's say I bet she looks like the redhead and the OC. She's blonde. Let's get her on the show. You've got to do. Uh, I only have an old picture though. Debra and even got young. Oh, she's divorced. What I'm saying. Some guy married her. 2016. She's divorced. And then he realized she didn't have a map.

And he was like, I'm out. And she is practicing a scientist. Let's see. She appeared on, um, the amazing race, Christina. I didn't watch that season. Was she teamed up with Sean Marion? She shot a maximum spread. Oh, oh, and behind the scenes video in 2010. Let's go. Okay, she would have no longer been a teen. She was in the Weasier Music video for Pork and Beans. Is that right? That's cool. Where the microphone she held became a lightsaber. Dude, her career has been amazing. Yeah. She recovered from not being able to talk really well. Yeah. She also took a lot of crap from Tucker Carlson. Oh, your guy. Get in line. There you have it. Congrats to Miss Texas. Hope this works out better for you than did for that lady. Coming up next and trending in minutes, the return of football gambling. And we've got ridiculous audio for you to hear next before we get there. Thank you to our friends at Reliant Air conditioning, Jeff Stewart and his family. Great people. Uh, was at his house last night, man.

That's a good friend of ours. And look, uh, I love the way Reliant Air conditioning does business. What they do business is they send an actual technician to your house, not a commission sales person. A lot of these companies send commission salespeople to your house. They're just going to try to sell you something that you may or may not even need because their livelihood depends on it at Reliant Air conditioning. They're gimmick free. So they just send technicians to your house. Now do us a favor. When you reach out to Reliant Air conditioning, whether it's for a service call or whether you think you need a new air conditioning system, if it's emergency, whatever it is, let them know you heard us talking about them on the Ben and Skin show. Yeah. It's a deal, man. It's like their whole thing is to educate you. Make sure you understand what you're buying. When you do get a new air conditioning unit, they're transparent with the pricing. They want you to get quotes from their competitors. Everything they do is to empower you to make the best decision and then help facilitate that and then give you the best service possible stated mission of providing comfort to homeowners. It don't want to be taken advantage of telling Ben and Skin sent you when you call 877 your hero. That's 877-968-7477 or online at Reliant Air conditioning dot com.

Ben and Skin show. Good morning, everybody. We're rocking with you on a nice Wednesday morning here on Loanstar 92.5. This segment right here is brought to you by Frankl and Frankl, longtime friends of the show. They have been partners with us since 2008. It's a long time. That's when that gal from South Carolina had that incredible appearance on the Miss Tintin USA page. It's the same year we partnered with Frankl and Frankl. They got 30 years of experience of helping you when you're in a tough spot. You got hurt and a record on the job site. They work with you with no out of pocket expenses to you and you get their unbelievable wisdom insight and they care. They very much care. 214-333333 for Frankl and Frankl. But right now it's time for this. He's an irrational, quick, triggered, nuclear, overreactor. He's a masterful storyteller who consistently finds himself drowning in a sea of awkward.

It's time for now, trending and ban. All right. With the return of football, it's a magical time, especially if you're here in DFW because this is the time of year where the cowboys haven't broken your heart yet. Typically, they do break your heart and maybe it'll go that way. This year feels a little bit different. I noticed that I have so many friends who, and they've always been this way, are into gambling on football, whether it's college or pro, whatever it may be. Yeah. I mean, whatever. Mad men. Yeah. So I know that gambling on football is a big deal. I'm fortunate that I never got into it. Because I think I would have gotten addicted to it and I would have gone broke. Good for you, man. It's a problem, dude. It can be a real problem for people. You guys realize how many pools I'm in right now? Yeah. I'm in a kicker pool. I'm in a bunch of different pools. Well, those are ever pools. Those things are fun. I'm talking about we have friends who, you know, we would, you know, back before we were

married, we just hang out and watch football all day on a Saturday and they would have money on every single game, dude. One year or so Sunday night, we're been and I were at we're with a guy who definitely needed Notre Dame to score a number of points and to also win by the margin. So he's, so he's got two bets riding on this Notre Dame game and he pulled it off and the moment they got that touchdown, it went clear the over under and cleared the points spread. He was going nuts and you're looking at going, man, that looks like a really fun feeling. That's not the feeling you get most of the time. Yeah. You're like, gee, dude, why didn't that guy make a field goal and you're throwing stuff? Well, I stumbled across this guy's name is Stewart Feiner and he's one of those guys who gives picks away and this was in the 90s and I could not believe how it rages. So here's just a bunch of his picks kind of thrown together in these montages. It's walked right now. I'm going to kill your book maker. I'll be the rip his throat out. I will pull this man out.

I will step on his throat to the man's jokes. Let me tell you how it is. Winners, winners, winners, winners. I'm on a roll 13 and three 13 and three of my last 16 games of my life. I said, I'll be on the roll. I mean, 13 and three is a good record though. I just don't know the person who sees that. It's not like this guy. I'm going to take his advice on his picks, but this guy made a gazillion dollars doing this. That's a whole obviously about that recently too is the whole people that listen to some guy make their picks and then go with his picks. Yeah. That's really funny to me because that speaks to you know what? I'm not really knowledgeable about this, but I definitely need action on it. So I'm going to do whatever that guy says. That world's gotten crazy because the people who aren't transparent about their picks just get grilled and get forced out of the industry because now they all have their own podcast and show. Right. Right. Because they're all, yeah, here's how I did last week and they'll have to go. I was two and eight. Oh, here's the one. No, I didn't. I know I'm like really mellow today. But what I did is I relaxed during the break to express those.

They were beautiful. Matter of fact, if it doubles, two shots of Zambuka, I am feeling so weird. All right, thoughts. This is the bottom line. Now listen, you know how some of your friends tell you there's no such thing as a sure thing. There's no locks. There's no guaranteed winners. Forget those people. You know what they are? They are losers. I mean, I keep, I'm just so glad I'm from here. Yeah. I think of a worst case scenario I could live on the West Coast, but man, I don't think I could ever be around East Coast blowhards like this. God, I know, man. The worst. You know, and it's funny. This is what I love so much about the Cohen Brothers movies is they always find like the hillbilly of a region and lean in on the hillbilly every what we're listening to is like the hillbilly of long. I am. You know what I'm saying? It's like that's what this kind of guy is. Here's another one. Here's someone else setting him up. There's a biggie. Six one million star blockbusters. Absolutely free. Take it away. Hey, I'm not going to get in your home.

Oh, that's a funny bit. That is good. Hi folks, this is Stu Fyne and let me tell you something right now. I am ready to go to war this weekend in the NFL. But let me be honest with you right now. I don't care. Anybody likes this game? I, who car? What? What is this? What are the greatest? Bucks. I love them making my life. New England Cleveland. I own this game. New England. That means it's in my hand. I put it in my pocket. I know the score. Oh, it's so crazy. That guy sleeps on cocaine. Yeah. That world is so wild too. Because he's the actual betting world. I'm not talking about the strategy games or prediction markets in the actual betting game where there's bookies involved. It's so close to the mafia. And there's a big controversy from over the weekend in college football was the Michigan western Michigan game. And there's a lot of people now going, well, how much money was on that and Michigan that gave us an NBC and NBC has a deal with the big 10 and the big 10 had their clock,

you know, said that they're in charge and the other conference western Michigan from the Mac. It's like, well, if you talk then maybe you don't get your paycheck here. You know, there's like a lot of people we think there's a mafia involved in that. I don't know how much I believe in that. I think it's just kind of incompetence with replay. But all that stuff, trust in a guy who knows the score. He might, he actually might. And that's what's crazy. I don't think he does. He might like this. He was 13 and three. No one is 13 and three these days. All right. There you have it. Please gamble responsibly out there. The fantasy stuff is the way to go. It's just way more fun. All right. Come on up, next.

And I saw this about a week ago in the, uh, all the publication on this culture map. Can you guys remember culture map? Yeah. Still doing stuff. And see how they do stuff online. Uh, yeah. So Prosper is near where you live, Ben.

Yep. And you live in Prosper. Sort of. I, I have a Salinas zip code, but it's Prosper schools. I'm right on that border. So they're doing something in Prosper where they're going to try to make this little neighborhood and kind of turn it into, uh, Venice, Italy. Oh, what? Yeah. This, uh, this place is called Bella Prosper. It's a $240 million development. This is our first street legacy drive. It's got town, home, stores, restaurants and all that. But in the middle of it, hotel, all that stuff in the middle of it, though. It's going to make water, make a canal. There's going to make a canal in a lagoon system. Oh, there it. There are, um, you know, those lagoon neighborhoods are pretty popular now. And there is one of them. But I think it's, it's near, it may be Prosper. It's just west of the toeway, though. And people love it. You know, it's got a sandy beach and it's just a man made lagoon and people freaking love it.

That's cool. I, I don't want to put your information on blast bin, but it does say that this zip code, because I don't know if it's yours or not. You don't have to tell me. Okay. It does say that this zip code, 75078 in Prosper is the ninth fastest growing new neighborhood zip code in the United States. That's odd because I thought Prosper, because Prosper is very small and it's comparatively to Salina and Frisco geographically, like it's a schnapp that much land. And it was, it's already pretty built out. Yeah. So that kind of surprises me. It surprises me that they're going to try to pull off a water thing. Like a canal and lagoon. I mean, I guess that part doesn't surprise me. Yeah, it doesn't surprise me. Just because these neighborhoods with these big, nice houses, they have to find all these ways to try to outsell the neighborhood next to them. Yeah. It's like, gotta come out with something cool. And as the technology advances, if they could figure out ways to make a lagoon system to where you live at a freaking water park, that's an, that's an incentive that would get you to move there. I'm very, I'm curious how they kind of govern it because like even when we just lived

in a neighborhood with a community pool, we'd go down to the community pool and there'd be people showing up all the time that don't live in the neighborhood. And just like, all right, whatever, I don't care. But I would think that people would care about that, right? Like if you buy into that, then you would think that this is your private beach or this is your Venice aqueduct system or whatever you're describing here. And then when others just kind of like show up with their towels and you know, you're like, hey, I'm paying for this. Cristina, did you go to Venice when you went to Italy? No, unfortunately. I, I did go over the summer and I was there for a couple days. I was there for three days and I think I covered it in one day. It comes to good. Oh, really? You're good with Italy in one day? No, not Italy. Yeah, Italy needs Italy. Yeah, Italy. You need gears, honestly. Yeah. You know, sometimes I go, how much is this farmhouse out here by this vineyard? And they're like, oh, yeah, it's cheaper than the house I live in now here. Yeah, it's crazy. Yeah.

Oh, my daughter's best friend at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, at, Alan High School. Her dad is from Italy, great guy. And they've already set it up that when their youngest daughter gets to high school here in three years, they've bought what is equivalent to a mansion back in Italy that they're going to move to here in three years. They went ahead and bought it. It's being built up, but like, it's not the price of a mansion over here. Yeah. Like, it's insane how you can live over there. Well, we're, our plans to go to Japan in December and now, uh, uh, uh, very much in question. Oh, it did push you back to June. Go see radio head. Yeah. They're just too expensive. It's too expensive to fly and we're taking kids who don't really care about going. That's a tough thing to swallow too. Do they like radio head? For me, I have to. I don't think they get that sad. I think they're happy. Um, yeah, Japan, I mean, just flying anywhere. Just, yeah, but it's like, it's just to fly there. It's like a teacher salary to take five people to Japan. This frontier fly to Japan. I can give you some frontier thoughts.

I'm not going to do it today. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow, but I did have my first frontier excursion this past week. And I'll tell you guys about it later. I'd like to know. Yeah. All right. There you have it. Uh, they're turning, uh, this local city into European hotspot. How about that coming up next, Christina? Where are you going to take us in the cookie jar? Let's decode some lyrics in a very popular song next before we get there. Thank you to our friends at the Chalk Talk, Casino and Resort in Durant, Oklahoma, where it is winning season, baby.

Good morning, everybody. This is the Ben and Skyn Show. Don't forget this Friday, we're going to be doing our show live from the Pluckers and

Dallas, off lovers and Greenville, but it's not this show. We're going to be doing a lunchtime podcast. So we'll do our morning show on Friday and then we will do the Haymaker podcast. So come about 11. We'll start the podcast around noon. You'll get to watch a Haymaker podcast and at Pluckers, you can get Roller Town. This segment is brought to you by Roller Town. You could go to Pluckers and order yourself a big German. It's got minimal hops at a smooth finish, very popular local beer that honors Dirk. In fact, anywhere you go, if they don't have us on tap, ask them why they don't tell them to get us on tap. And if you see us at the store, put us in your cart. We sure would appreciate that in Biomines. Be sure to come watch some football with us at the Frisco location of Roller Town beer works right there in Main Street in Frisco. It's the home for football this year. But right now it's time for this. The Bella Cowboy. Surprise, motherfucker. Do you like the Cowboys? Do you like Cousins? Yeah. Cause you're cousin Cowboys.

Yeah, finally some bad news for the Cowboys. They kind of got through Scott Free. Very clean training camp. No big injuries. The vibes are really good. Well, I mean, what are we doing with this defense? We're going to turn it around. Kidding me. Shotty's good old boy and everybody. You know, it's a good times. And sure enough, we find out that Tyler Smith, their old pro left guard is going to have to have a thumb surgery. And he's going to be out four to six weeks. Yeah, this sucks. It's the first bad news they've really had though. Which is surprising. Usually it's a march of bad news right up into a bad season. And really this one hurts because it's the identity of their team is they're really good up the gut on both sides. You know, and it's going to be a great season. This is one of their best players. But it's just hard to reconcile. Cause you're like, wait, how long has he had the injury and could he not have had the

surgery sooner to where he would be back or just in time to start the season? Or I don't know. I know that they've got great professionals over there monitoring not monitoring, but yes, monitoring the health situation. But the news itself seemed to bizarre because it's like, wait, why is he having the surgery now? One of the ways I look at this is they really needed to get off to a good start just because of the way their schedules laid out. And so I'm sitting here going, he's probably going to miss four games because they do have a by-week in there at the end. So he'll probably be back for the fifth game of the year, hopefully, right? Hopefully. You do have games with New York and Washington and you're like, I look at it one of two ways. Okay. They can probably beat Washington in New York without him. But then I also look at it is, but you have to have those wins if you're going to have the season that you want. Not only is it the week part of your schedule, it's divisional. So this is, I mean, after everything we've talked about and all the good momentum and all the fun times and excitement, this is a kick to the nuts.

It is a kick to the co-honies. And I think, so one thing that Brian Shottenheimer said was that got grips, strength is important. So whenever he aggravated this, they tried to fight through it for a couple days. And he's like, grip strength is important when you're in offensive linemen. If you can't grab on, then that's why we made the decision to get ahead of it. So apparently this is going to be a problem either way. I saw someone report, I put it as Todd Hart, your VSP report, that the Cowboys had done this two weeks ago. I don't know if they knew about it two weeks ago either. I don't know that they knew, but basically they would have had to put a player on IR or whatever. So it would have, if they made the decision two or three weeks ago, it would have been the same amount of time missed, because they would have had to do it. For the roster spot. That makes sense. So get it fixed now, whatever. TJ Bass is a good backup. I think your problems are, it sounds weird. They would have bigger problems if one of the starters who aren't as good get hurt. I think because then you have to reshuffle the other line.

And this is at least you have the one injury you can kind of take is a guard because TJ Bass is good. Yeah, he's like your best backup. I mean, outside of the wide receiver spot, this is probably the spot they could handle in injury. And of course, quarterback. But even at quarterback, they, I feel pretty good about it. If that's going to miss a couple of games, but TJ Bass is really good. I thought they were potentially going to lose him. And so that's a huge luxury to have him as a backup. So they should be able to weather the storm later in the week. I've got my top five reasons why the cowboys are going to beat the giants. Only a little bit of that is because one of the giant's best players doesn't believe in asthma. We'll get into that later in the week though. I think it's going to be a good season. Let's go. Let's not let this shake us guys. Yeah, it's good pep talk. Yeah, turned up. Say it. All right, there you have it. Cussing the cowboys coming up next. Let's crank up the way back machine. A skill Americans have lost. We'll talk about that next before we get there. Thank you to our friends at Frankl and Frankl. Mark Frankl, Scott Frankl and Jean Brickett.

Those are the three partners at Frankl and Frankl and they are very good at what they do. If you've been involved in a wreck, that's not your fault. Call the Frankl's call immediately. Yeah, that's what I did. I got into a horrible wreck. I called them and they handled everything. They fought the other side. So I didn't have to. They set up the MRIs X-rays and physical therapy. And at the end of it all, Frankl and Frankl got me a nice cash settlement, which that's what they've been doing now for over three decades. They're basically advocates for injury victims fighting for you against big insurance companies. They just want to keep their money. They just, you know, they're, it's not that they don't care about you. They care about their money more. So you need someone fighting for you to make sure you get what you deserve. That's what Frankl and Frankl do. And that's what they've done for over 30 years. They have an incredible track record with it. Great wisdom, very knowledgeable guys and they're caring guys. We love them. They are our personal friends. Mark's gotten Jean over there. Are all great guys. We can vouch for them personally. So if you get hurt in a wreck or on the job site, because someone was careless or negligent or not doing the right thing, we're not going to let you get stuck holding the bag.

You need someone to fight for you. You need Frankl and Frankl 214 3333333 or 8173333333 for Frankl and Frankl chosen by the people and feared by the insurance companies. F re N K E L. Call Frankl first. Good morning, everybody. It's the Ben and Skinshow on Lone Star 92 five. Let's give away those ZZ top tickets. They're coming November the 19th to the Toyota music factory.

But right now it's time for this. It's time to go. It's time to go into the vintage. It's your way back machine. There's a new study out that says only 18% of Americans know how to drive stick. How what percentage 18% Wow. Manual transmission. That's crazy low. Well, you don't need to. Right. But I also wonder. Okay. So how many 18 know how? Yeah. And I bet only half of that knows how to do it the right way. Yeah. Half of them probably lied on the surface. Well, I think half of them will burn up the clutch. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. I mean, look, I was taught in early age how to drive stick. Still feels like a very stressful way to get around. Yeah. But if you're doing that, you're one of the few.

My first car was manual transmission. But back then we didn't have phones. You weren't holding your phone. We had cup holders. So you were, you know, one hand on the steering wheel. Why are you holding your phone? Yeah. What are you holding your phone? Yeah. Cause we know your other hands somewhere else. It shouldn't be. What where? Tell me where it is, Kevin. On that radio dial. Yeah. You should leave it on 95. Yeah. He said it. I don't know. I shouldn't have let him out of that. I know. We all know what he's doing. Hey, man, much another you have driverless cars. Yeah. I'm terribly cranked a little bit. But I would have thought that more than one in five people just based on the number of people on the planet. Like everybody, mine and Ben's age grew up knowing how to drive a stick. Yeah. It's pretty common. Yeah. I got a gosh. I don't say it was half the cars, but it seems like it was a lot of a lot of them. Yeah. And this is one thing the article says, unless you're like in your mid 40s, then yeah, there's really no reason for you to ever

go through this. I knew, but I also had grandparents who had a farm and I could go drive at an early age. You know, tell me how to drive us 12, 13 years old. You know, did you ever drive stick Christina? No, I had a boyfriend try to teach me and it was very traumatizing. So I'm good. No, no, because because a boyfriend's her nice. He was not. Oh, yeah, skid jerk. Man, this is gobble down. Don't say jerk. You doubled down. Yeah. That's right now. Don't jerk the wheel. Yeah, don't jerk the wheel around. Now this did remind me just whole article that I came across about people not knowing how to drive stick anymore. Yes, is Angus Maximus. This partner has one pound of hot sushi cooked to order Angus speed. It's more fish than a quarter pounder. The burger of clothes and for only 599, even regular dudes can afford it. Like that guy.

And with great deals across the lineup, now's the time to find yours. But hurry, these deals won't last long. Toyota's easy choice sales event and soon. We make it easy. Toyota, let's go places. About the time one of our fake radio shows, the fight and McMan's, we're talking to a guy from Toronto, some Blue J's blogger. And that's a nice Canadian fellow named Eric. Now Ronnie and Terry McMan, this is probably their debut on Lundster 95. They're a couple fellows who are brothers and they just fight each other.

And they're from around here. They're from around here. That's all you need. They both sound kind of like Tim McMan, the surly sports rider, but they're more hillbilly than even him. And all they do is fight, fight, fight with each other all the time, but they're still trying to do a radio show somehow. It just love that we have a show called the fighting, McMan's. So here they were with Eric from Toronto. And it went, it turned into this. Driving in this morning, some Jack wagon and F-150s all over my ass. I pulled over and I said, you want some? Can I kick his ass? Hell no, he didn't want none. He didn't get out his car. Hey, stop then then he got out of the car, saw the size of me and saw that I was holding a small bat. Yeah, and I was like, it was one of them, Nat sticks. Oh, yeah, I saw that I was holding that. He's like, he want none. I hope he broke his window and told him to drive the car. I threw it at him. Yeah. Take a year, head and then road rage there. I got to fly out whatever the guys drive up there. What are y'all drive up there? Y'all drive hogs?

Carves like every other country. Like a big ass four by four, like big foot. It's going to run over. What the hell with the himmy? No, no. What you drive boy? I drive a car. Yeah, I'm a store. That's a question I couldn't even bother answering. Who the f**k cares right? He's a driver. You got to drive and kick it. Let him answer the question. I'm top helping him out. Shut the f**k up, Roddy. Damn boy. Damn, I got sick, man. I got the call for real bad. I got a nice bad filtered cigarette for five years. He said you drive hog. That's like no. That was a Canadian guy can't answer how much torque his car. After the question, you drive hogs? You have a car like everyone else. He got to bring them back.

I can load start 92-5. I like to fight and make money. I can't take it. All right, coming up next, Ken, we're going to take us in things. Ken is tracking. Well, I changed my mind after hearing Christina's cool secret lyrics reveal thing. It reminds me of a story that I think all of Bowen Jim's old listeners are going to love and I'll tell it to you next. All right, before we get to that, just know this Friday will do our show like we normally do. It'll be six to nine a.m. But Friday afternoon, we are going to the pluckers and Dallas off lovers in Greenville.

But right now it's time for this. I'm going to make this quick and then we'll get out of the way because Burke Christchurch is going to join us here shortly. But Boeing Jim used to do a segment where you could leave a message back then on message machines. Yeah. Not like our talk back about lyrics that you got wrong on famous songs. Okay, you remember this right Christina. And so over the weekend, Ben and I spent some time with some old friends because we unfortunately lost one of our long time friends. So we were all together in the same place. And a guy that Ben's known forever. He was my CPA for a while. A friend of ours from high school is telling me a story of he was so excited that we were on mornings and on loan star because he did this back. We were thinking they might have been on Q102 at this time. He was in his early 20s and he was driving into work and he heard the message that he had left because he thought he was a big rolling stone stand as a little kid.

Like that was his band when he was like 10. And so when we were 10 years old and the song Start Me Up came came out was a big hit for the stones. He didn't know what the lyrics were. But he thought the very first thing that Mick Jagger saying was Yukotslavia. Slavia. Okay, hold on, I'm going to bring it up. So play a little bit just the very beginning. The very first lyric where he says you can start me up. He thought it was Yukotslavia. Got a little bit of a bit. There they. It's like the NFL's my computer. All right, here it is right here. Yeah. He's just. He can hear it. And he and so he you know 10 years later, whatever he leaves the message with Bowen Jim and they played it. And at first they're like, Ah, you're crazy. I'm telling the stories he's telling you.

But then they're like, okay, I can kind of hear it. Yeah, I can kind of hear it. And so it's just a fun little story from the past that involved. Mine and Ben's old friend Bowen Jim and the Rolling Stones. So every time you hear start me up. Yeah. Think of us and think of him singing about Yukotslavia. That's a good little stinger to have. Yeah. Every time we're transitioning into something that's played with guitar sound. It's a great guitar sound. That was the most lonely boy's guitar sound. I'm being your shit. You have that one, Andy? I'm probably. Yeah. I love it. Yeah, okay, let's switch topics. That's what it's going to say. Okay, hey, let's get out of the way and get ready for Burt Christchurch.

Whether you're looking for the performance of a camera, the versatility of a RAV4, the efficiency of a Corolla, or all electric driving in the BZ. There's a Toyota that's just right for you. And with great deals across the lineup, now's the time to find yours. But hurry, these deals won't last long. Toyota's easy choice sales event end soon. We make it easy. Toyota, let's go places. It is my cruise. It's my second time doing it. The first time was, I mean, spectacular. Honestly, top to bottom, spectacular. We set records for everything. Mount of booze, sold, mount of booze, drank, mount of gambling done. I mean, it was incredible.

And we did things that no one's ever done in a cruise. Like, if you get pregnant on my cruise, I set up a college fund for that kid. Incredible. How will you roll? God, that's great. And there's no way to prove if you got pregnant on the cruise. So technically, if you're pregnant in either October or November, go on my cruise and I'll set up a college fund. Yeah. Yeah, it's a, it's a blast. Then we have like 12 of the best comics in the world. We do podcast live shows, karaoke. I mean, we do a contest. Smallest junk on the boat. So it's a teeny-weeny peony contest. Whoever's got the smallest, don gets $5,000. And so I'm going on this fund. Yeah, this does sound like a lot of fun. And so, you know, you're on this boat with all these people who are excited to be there with you. Do they like get to hang out with you and be around you? Or are you ushered off to some private VIP suite immediately? No, that's the beauty of it. It's really immersive. You know, there's no separation in church and state.

I think mostly because we're all podcasters and comics, we have different like intimacy levels. Like, we just hang out. So everyone gambles together. Everyone parties on the lead-o deck together. We all go up for sunset and watch the docksiders. We all go to karaoke. I mean, I stay in the different place than everyone else, but that's just, I mean, it's because I'm putting on the cruise. But yeah, it's like, we all eat together. We all hang together and it's a blast. I mean, if you're a comedy fan or you're a fan of like any of the people on the cruise, this is where you'll get to like, I don't know, kind of hang out. It sounds like so much fun. We're talking to Bert Kreischer here on the Benin skin show, Lone Star 925. Okay, so the best, to me, the easiest way to tell people is your website isbertbert.com. And people can go there. And I want to say, I've thought about this a lot. I'm assuming that all the other birds you know are spelled B-U-R-T. The B-E-R-T bird is a very unique bird to me.

Is that because it's short for Bertrand or what is the science behind this? No, it is short for Albert. I think most Alberts go by either Albert or Al. Yes. Or as my daughter said, I don't know why he didn't go by Albi. And I was like, I'm not black. So. But yeah, I'm one of the few B-E-R-T's. You never meet another B-E-R-T. Bert Campford is one. And then Bert Nerny, that's it. Legend. So you mentioned your daughters. You have two daughters. They're both in their early 20s, right? Yeah. I was 20. I was taking her driver's test as we speak. Okay. Okay. She's still driving the way we did. They all Uber. Yeah. They're not as worried about getting that driver's license. We counted the days and skin and eye are roughly the same age. You're a little bit younger than us. But I got to ask you this. So my my daughter when she's about to be 16, but when she was 11 or 12, it was my best buddy ever.

And now all of our conversations involve her walking away, rolling her eyes as she leaves the room. Does that ever change? So hey, how old did you say? She's about to be 16. Yeah. Yeah. That's that's par for the course. My daughters, like I was like, we should legalize abortion for 50 years. I was so I was heartbroken too, because can I tell you what it did for me? And I'm curious if this happened to you. It brought up like rejection because the thing I love the most, my best friend, my thing I love more than anything in the world. All of a sudden started pushing back and I felt like I was getting dumped again. And all my bad boyfriend behaviors showed up. Like I started playing hard to get with my daughters. And then and then and then at my oldest daughter, it didn't really change for her until like, you know, there's also this more complicated stuff is that, you know, I was famous and that made her uncomfortable. And then she went to college and I was famous with boys.

That like she would want to meet. We're like wanted to talk about me. So that made things awkward towards the end of college. My oldest and other daughter and I got along really good. Ila and I never separated at all. For whatever reason, never, ever had a hiccup. But my oldest daughter and I and now my oldest daughter and I are perfect. She's going to work out with me in 30 minutes. She'll be down in the gym and we'll work out together. She is, we went to the store. We made dinner last night together. Like I love that kid. I don't want her to move. I wanted to live in LA, but you know, I guess whatever. This is great. And I love this as I'm hearing this bird. I'm thinking about free bird on Netflix because, you know, my wife and I, we don't find a lot of things that we just sit down and watch together. She was way on board and she loved it and I loved it. And one of my favorite parts of it are the two actresses playing your daughters on the show. They're incredible. And the younger one is very funny. And so I'm curious how close those personalities of the daughters on your TV show are to your actual

daughters in real life. Not, I have a hard time with, because I just know them as little girls that I hang out with that act. So like I know the actual Lilo and Eva who play George and Ila. And so I can't really separate them from their characters. I think they're very different. Although Ila has always been very funny in Georgia and I, and I think we represent this, but Georgia and I always kind of put it heads at that age. So I think they represent well, but I have a hard time not seeing them as the two people they actually are. All right. If you were, this is really awesome. We're having, we're talking about bird crashers fully loaded at C, crews that you can go check out at Burt, Burt.com. Go get ticks to the saying. You'll get to hang out with them and it just sounds like an absolute blast. And you'll have a bunch of friends and podcasters and comedians there with you. If you were, if you were passed out drunk, which of your friends would you trust the least to take

care of you? Great question. And why? I shan't kill us. Okay. Why? Because you're happy. And by the way, I have to say that I took care of him when he was on ketamine one time. But he forgot how to use his legs. And I sat with him in a lobby of a hotel until his legs worked. I got him water. I rather my assistant got him water. But Gillis would be the one because there's two. You know, he is a natural comedian in the biggest respect of the word in that if it's funny, I think it plays with him. So I can only imagine, I imagine waking up and everything on my face being absolutely cancelled. Well, that's good. We're talking to Bert Kreischer here on The Ben and Skin Show.

Now you had mentioned that some of the fun on the cruise is also gambling. So if you're standing there and to your left is a roulette wheel right in front of you, you can throw dice and over here to the right is a blackjack table and you got 30 minutes, which one you go into. roulette every time I'm a dummy. Listen, the most fun you can have on a cruise is craps. Without a doubt, craps is the most fun. It is communal. It is enjoyable. But I am so bad at it and so many people on a cruise suck at it that it makes you crazy. Blackjack, I just don't have the brain, the math brain for it. Like I'm always going, wait, what's seven plus four? And they're like, if you never mind, just fold, just fold. I roulette works for everyone. It works for everyone. And it's so easy. Just pick it. This is me doing it to my wife. Pick a number. Just pick one number and bet on it. And then Jesus then figure it out.

Watch everyone else gamble. Ask what they're doing and do that. And there's no better feeling out of all the games you'll play. There's no better feeling than watching that little marker going top of your chip when you win. There's no better feeling. The I often say, because I always bet 11 and I'll bet every now and then I'll bet $100 on 11. And I've hit three times. It is better than the birth of a child when you hit $100 on your number. It is. And it's only $3,000. It's only $3600. It's not like a game-changing amount of money. But man, it is. It's better than working for a living. It's better than having a child. It's better than a first kiss. It, that feeling in your heart is so real. And you don't get that on Blackjack. You got to bet too much on Blackjack to win that. Yeah. All right. We're talking to the great Bert Kreyscher. He's got a tour coming up. It's a cruise. You can actually go on a cruise with Bert fully loaded at cgo to BertBertBert.com to get more information and get your tickets and go be a part of that.

But you seem like one of us in a lot of ways. You're just way richer and more successful than all of us. But you're one of us that made it. And so I'm curious. Do you ever get Starstruck? Oh, yeah. I'm Starstruck all the time. It's funny. It's changed. Who I'm Starstruck by now is not impressive. Like I used to get Starstruck by athletes. And then I realized I'm older than all of them. And so the last person that Starstruck me, I got to tell you, I was with John Gruden. And we were at the day 200 or 500 and Kurt Russell was there. And John Gruden said to me, Kurt Russell, can you believe it? That's snake bliskin. And I was like, I know. That blew me away. Kurt Russell. And then the thing I'm always blown away by, like I'm always fascinated at what kind of cars famous people drive, like regular. You know, like, and then what kind of shoes they wear? Hmm. Like it's like, I'm a little specific about my shoes.

When I was a young age, my grandmother told me, you can always tell a man by his shoes. And Kurt Russell had very sensible, like, kind of non-descript Nike black, like still had the air pump in it. I mean, it's like it was a weird shoe. Well, Bert, we thank you so much for making time for us, man. It is, I don't know. It's just reassuring to hear your voice. You're a funny MFR. And the cruise sounds amazing. So we want all of our listeners to go to Bert, Bert, Bert.com, Bertis spelled B-E-E-R-T, short for Albert friends. And then as we say goodbye to you, we'll give you the platform to say anything you want to our listeners about the cruise. Oh, about the cruise. I was going to talk about the Capitol. When we stormed the Capitol, that was the best. I've ever seen our country stand up for their rights. I mean, listen, it was like, I mean, it's like you got St. Peter's Bergen in 1917. You have. Anyway, my point is the cruise is going to be a blast. No politics at all.

I love it. A, Bert, have a great day. We thank you for the time and we'll catch on down the road, man. Thank you guys. Thank you very much. There he goes.
