Summary
Big Ben heads to the Big Apple and immediately suffers a fashion faceplant worthy of a Manhattan walk of shame. On this Saturday edition of the Fifth Hour Podcast, Ben shares tales from the naked city that never sleeps while chasing his older brother around New York like an overcaffeinated tourist with giant bozo the clown shoes that left him as numb as a bug. From rooftop parks, legendary pizza and bagel stops to numb feet and urban chaos, Maller pulls back the curtain on his life outside the overnight microphones. Ben also reveals why he gets emotionally attached to the eccentric late-night callers who become part of his extended radio family — and why he starts worrying when longtime characters suddenly disappear from the airwaves. Subscribe, follow, and help keep the Pirate Ship sailing.
