The Sunday pod throws you a curveball—we’re putting the usual mailbag in mothballs for a week. Why? Because we’re still basking in the strange, slightly sticky afterglow of Saturday’s big Maller Meet & Greet in Las Vegas. Benny opens the case files from the Maller Bureau of Investigations, where an unofficially deputized P1 went above and beyond in the years-long hunt for our elusive White Whale. Captain Ahab had the ocean; we apparently have sports-radio archives and people with way too much free time. Then there’s dinner. A simple plan. What could possibly go wrong? Everything. Instead of arriving at the Temple of Cholesterol for some artery-clogging fellowship, Ben somehow ends up in a cul-de-sac involving a Honda and fertilizer. Honda. Fertilizer. Cul-de-sac. Perfect. Because apparently asking for dinner directions now requires a degree in urban planning and a hazmat endorsement. It’s the Fifth Hour—where even getting something to eat becomes a three-act disaster.

Ben Maller gets you ready for the Comic-Con for people with insomnia, otherwise known as the Maller Meet & Greet in Las Vegas—because apparently strangers from overnight radio gathering in a bar is considered a social event. Plus, Ben unveils The Gremlin Manifesto, a tale as old as technology itself. After another romantic dance with the tech gods ended with equipment going haywire, Ben was forced to launch a one-man counterinsurgency from the old country. Nothing dramatic, just a grown man fighting machines that are supposed to make life easier. Ben also produces dusty official, government-stamped paperwork. Yes, apparently the government once took time away from misplacing billions of dollars to certify something involving Ben Maller. Finally, your tax dollars at work.
