The Ben and Skin Show

BuzzBalls, Billionaires, and Business Battleship: The Plano Power Move


Listen Later

“What do you get when you mix a Plano school teacher, a Christmas ornament, and a liquor store checkout line?”In this laugh-out-loud episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive headfirst into one of the most unexpectedly hilarious and inspiring business stories to hit North Texas: the rise of BuzzBalls and the jaw-dropping $16 million Plano mansion it bought.From the moment KT drops the “panty dropper intro” to the crew’s wild guesses about what a “buzz ball” really is (“a buzz cut for your testes?”), this episode is packed with side-splitting banter and razor-sharp wit. The gang unpacks the story of Marilee Kick, a former Plano West teacher turned beverage mogul, who turned a boozy brainstorm into a liquor empire—culminating in a mansion with a stocked lake, underwater pool windows, and a 20-seat home theater.Key Moments:
  • 🥃 The hilarious confusion over what a BuzzBall actually is.
  • 🏡 The jaw-dropping details of the $16M estate (yes, it has a lighted tennis court and immersive 3D audio).
  • 💡 A deep dive into the genius of point-of-purchase marketing.
  • 😂 KT’s deadpan: “People love to drink, and people love balls.”
  • 🏀 The wild comparison between Luka Dončić’s real estate and the BuzzBall empire.
Memorable Quote:“Luka is the BuzzBalls of alcoholic drinks.” — KTWhether you're here for the business insights, the absurd analogies, or just to hear the crew riff on Riskopoly and candy bars, this episode delivers a perfect blend of humor, hustle, and hometown pride.
