It's a patriotic Fifth on the Fifth as Ben Maller teams up with his Fox Sports Radio partner-in-crime, Briana Muro, for a special holiday edition of the Fifth Hour! Benny and Bree crack open the overflowing Mailbag of Mischief and answer questions from the loyal P1s of the Maller Militia here, there, and everywhere. B & B are bouncing from one random rabbit hole to the next. On the menu: Joey Chestnut battling the summer heat, rooftop cooling hacks, classic game show drama-o-rama, cyborg cockroaches, Nepo Babies, proper shotgun etiquette, Stinking Genius load management, hairy pastry, and a buffet of wonderfully useless knowledge. It's another trip through the Audio Dojo where the strange is celebrated, the mundane is mocked, and organized chaos reigns supreme.

Ben returns to the audio dojo on the Fourth of July and explains how he was drafted—against his better judgment—into attending a baby shower in the Southern California town made famous by a beloved 1980s cult classic. What begins as social exile turns into an unexpected excellent adventure as he discovers common ground with complete strangers... before being rescued by smoke. Plus, Ben celebrates Independence Day by diving into random patriotic trivia involving George Washington, the Liberty Bell, hidden messages, forgotten dates, and Americans with split allegiances. It's history with extra hot sauce. And according to Alf and Ferg Dog, this episode is better than burgers, hot dogs, fireworks, and potato salad combined... unless it's not.

Ben Maller is back behind the mighty microphones of the Fifth Hour Podcast, broadcasting from beneath the Palace of Pontification in the legendary Audio Dungeon! After a brief radio sabbatical, Benny pulls back the curtain on where he's been and why a few so-called loyal listeners were exposed as nothing more than counterfeit P1s. Then, a random text about old laundry sent Maller down a rabbit hole and into a full-blown radio geek frenzy, celebrating the larger-than-life legacy of Wolfman Jack and the magic of the golden age of radio. Plus, by popular demand, the Word of the Week returns, featuring one of Ben's all-time favorite Yiddish gems that's gone from the old neighborhood to the mainstream. It's nostalgia, snark, radio war stories, and the usual controlled chaos—just the way you like it.

Benny is back in the audio sweatshop, the SpinMaster of Misinformation, Bantering Broadcaster, Beethoven of B.S. joins show legend, Robbie the Mariners Fan, for the latest edition of the wildly popular Sunday Mailbag. The boys crack open the P1 inbox and tackle everything from peanut butter on burgers, hot dog buns, and a pirate's life to the meteoric rise of IShowSpeed, trashcan madness, Wendy's stock, and the legendary Commodore flip phone. Nothing is off limits as every question gets sliced, diced, grilled, and seasoned with a generous shake of Cajun pepper in another freewheeling edition of the Fifth Hour Podcast.

Benny cracks open another chapter from the Life of Maller on this Saturday edition of the Fifth Hour Podcast. Forget private jets and VIP lounges—this is the glamorous life of an overnight radio star. Ben embarks on an epic Staycation, battling his way through a concrete jungle, surviving a chemical blizzard inside a post-apocalyptic snow globe, cruising down Misery Mile, hiking through what looked like a landfill, and weaving past an outdoor drug market... all in search of civilization. The reward? Pastrami Nirvana and Cookie Sundae Bliss at the legendary Santa Monica Pier. Along the way, Ben also unveils a billion-dollar business idea: how restaurants can use a little Skull Duggery Pricing to make customers think they're getting the deal of the century—without actually lowering the price. Luxury travel has nothing on this...

Call him Benny Bogey! Ben Maller trades major championship dreams for the glorious chaos of Holey Moley, where miniature golf, cocktails, and questionable athleticism collide. Ben explains why putt-putt might have more in common with Tiger Woods than you'd think, and celebrates his greatest golfing triumph yet: conquering a rotating sheet of plywood. Plus, the Phrase of the Week returns with the surprising origin of "Holy Moly!"—the famous exclamation popularized by comic book heroes like Batman and Shazam. Then it's time for Foodie Fun, featuring Ben's latest culinary brainstorm: the legendary Maller Fluffernutter sandwich. Golf, laughs, language, and late-night food fantasies... just another day in the Fifth Hour!

The dynamic duo dives headfirst into the Maller Militia mailbag, tackling hard-hitting questions about FIFA stadium sponsorships, the mystery of Blue M&Ms, momentum meters, the latest PMS slander aimed at the Maller Brand, irrational fear of doorbells, guerrilla marketing tactics for the Ben Maller Show, and whether Hollywood should dare remake Liar Liar. No topic is too big, too small, or too ridiculous. It’s a grab bag of hot takes, random observations, unsolicited wisdom, and certified nonsense. Buckle up, subscribe, listen, and enjoy the ride through another chaotic edition of the Fifth Hour Podcast!

Ben Maller returns to the audio dojo for a Saturday special, taking a deep dive into a world straight out of The Twilight Zone. It's a dystopian digital wasteland filled with bots, sock puppets, engagement farming, and clipping gone wild — the Voodoo Boogaloo. A place where everything is upside down: up is down, first is last, good is bad, wrong is right, and insanity passes for sanity. Drawing on Plato's Cave, Ben explores how millions mistake curated clips, filtered images, and viral narratives for reality when they're only seeing shadows on the wall. It's a journey through the Matrix of modern social media and the illusion factory that powers it. Plus, another shocking plot twist in the never-ending Life of Maller saga as Ben's home appliance drama takes yet another unexpected turn, proving that sometimes fixing one problem only opens the door to two more,

The podcast sweatshop is back open for business! Ben Maller bobs and weaves his way through another edition of the Friday Fifth Hour, sharing a surprisingly heartfelt story about a 40-plus-year Lakers employee he connected with through the magic of radio despite being a card-carrying member of the Lakers Haters Society of America. The Quote of the Week makes its triumphant return, and then things get wonderfully weird. Ben discovers that no actual garlic was harmed in the making of garlic sauce, learns you can buy Cotton Candy Cat Fur, celebrates the return of Fried Apple Pies, and investigates an Endless Shrimp Sweepstakes that sounds too good to be true for seafood fanatics. It's a grab bag of nonsense, nostalgia, oddities, and storytelling from the Nocturnal Colonel. Buckle up — because the road to nowhere has never been more entertaining.
