Summary
Ben Maller is fired up for today’s Maller Meet & Greet in Newport, Kentucky, from 2pm-5pm, ready to break bread with the Maller Militia and soak in the chaos. Ben reveals he thought he was getting catfished after receiving an out-of-nowhere invite to the America First Correspondents’ Dinner in Washington, D.C.—same day, same time. Hard pass. He’d rather hang with real ones in the Maller Militia than rub elbows with Beltway bureaucrats. Plus, a real-life Curb Your Enthusiasm moment unfolds as a radio buddy goes Larry David and treats a funeral like an all-you-can-eat buffet. It’s storytelling, sarcasm, and offbeat life observations. Subscribe, follow, and leave a five-star review.
