Pack the car, lower your expectations and make sure your tetanus shot is current—the Maller Travelogue has returned! Benny goes wandering around the Golden State, proving California still has some gold left once you get far enough away from traffic, politicians and people charging $19 for avocado toast. It’s a “Darling” of an adventure featuring the Cathedral of Giants, 24 hours living off the grid, and the three magical letters posted on a restaurant window that scream: you have made some questionable navigation choices. Along the way, Ben becomes roadside Rip Van Maller, gets an unwanted lesson in organic farming and discovers what happens when civilization—and cell service—disappear. Then we change gears to remember the late Lawrence Tanter, the legendary Lakers PA announcer who spent more than 40 years behind the microphone. Somehow, a card-carrying Lakers hater and the voice of the Lakers became friends, bonding over the dying art of radio. Travel stories, radio stories, California weirdness and assorted nonsense—dump it into the Maller blender, hit purée and pray the lid stays on. It’s the Life of Maller edition of The Fifth Hour.

Big Ben discusses if the Chiefs are fully back after they beat the Colts on SNF. Also, have Sean McVay and the Rams solved all their problems after beating up on the Giants on Monday Night? How will the Giants do without Jaxson Dart? Maller's Mountain of Money: Joan Jett Edition, and more!

Mel Proctor invades this edition of The Fifth Hour! The legendary gasbag spins yarns about Earl Weaver, Mickey Mantle and a gaggle of sports characters like Earl Weaver and Mickey Mantle from his 40-plus years behind the microphone. Mel called games for among others, the Orioles, Rangers, Nationals, Bullets, Clippers, and even the Triple-A Hawaii Islanders, broadcasting from the legendary dump known as the “Termite Palace.” That baseball circus inspired his new book, The Destitute Darlings—the insane story of a team going broke, bouncing checks and somehow winning a championship. You can’t make this stuff up! Grab your copy on Amazon or wherever books are sold. Hollywood, stop making superhero sequels and make this movie. Enjoy!

Somehow, the Packers rushed for only 17 yards in a home TNF loss to Atlanta, while Bijan Robinson ran all over them. Head coach Matt LaFleur called it a straight butt whoopin’, or was it a “boat” whoopin’? And all we’re hearing from Green Bay is a dogsled full of excuses. On the Atlanta side, is Michael Penix Jr. the hero they’ve been looking for, or is it a mirage?
