The Ben Maller Show

Ben Maller clocks back into the audio sweatshop and opens up the Fifth Hour mailroom for another wild edition of the Maller Mail Bag. Listener questions fly in from all directions — tongues, robot warriors, churros, Diet Coke, introvert life, and Ben’s alleged psychic powers as a distant cousin of Nostradamus (and drinking buddy of Nostradeanus). Nothing is off limits, everything is fair game, and the answers are equal parts wisdom and nonsense. It’s chaotic, it’s weird, it’s the Fifth Hour.

Ben Maller pulls up a chair at the Round Table and explains why this was his destiny—kings, commoners, and burger flippers all welcome. It’s a tale of timing, thrift, and a perfectly circular stroke of karma. Then, Maller flips the script and unloads on Coachella, tracing its journey from gritty, anti-establishment roots to the full-blown Influencer Olympics—selfie sticks, sponsored vibes, and corporate cash running the show. From backyard wins to big-business takeovers, it’s a classic Maller monologue with bite. Like, follow, and subscribe for more unfiltered audio mayhem on the Fifth Hour podcast.

Ben Maller clocks back into the audio sweatshop, firing up the Fifth Hour remote studio to chronicle the great “Calling Dick” saga — a full-blown hostage negotiation to get the legendary Dick in Dayton a ride to the Maller Meet & Greet in Cincinnati. Will he make it, or is this another transportation cold case? Plus, Ben serves up a crispy Maller Monologue on the origin of the high five — from Dodger lore to playground betrayal (“too slow!”). It’s road trips, radio legends, and random history, all mashed together in classic, off-the-rails Fifth Hour fashion.
