Our Editor's Take

The Ben Maller Show is the official podcast of the commentator and former sports blogger. This is the podcast version of his popular radio show. Host Ben Maller calls himself a "professional blabbermouth." He has been a well-known sports journalism name for over two decades. His career includes being part of Fox Sports Radio as a weekend update broadcaster. Throughout Maller's career, he's been the first to report on several notable stories. One of the most memorable involved the 2010 NBA Slam Dunk Contest and whether the league wanted Blake Griffin to win or not.

The podcast host has built up a large and devoted fanbase over the years. This is due to his sarcastic sense of humor and blunt honesty when expressing his opinions. Maller's fans have come to rely on him to always be candid, even if he is expressing an unpopular opinion.

On The Ben Maller Show, the host discusses prominent stories from within sports. He focuses on the MLB, NHL, NFL, and NBA, with an emphasis on baseball and football. Maller is fine with letting listeners know if a player is underperforming and can do better. While most of the show is lighthearted and good fun, Maller will also report on more serious stories. If an athlete has legal trouble of some sort, he will often speak about it on-air.

One of the highlights of having the radio show in podcast form is that the episodes are available by hour. This makes it easier for listeners to find a specific part of the show if need be. There are also episodes which have "best of" moments for each day. New episodes of The Ben Maller Show air on weekdays.
