In the debut episode of A Case of the Bens, we roll out the red carpet for all things Ben. Our current eBents spotlight the Bens making waves (and maybe awkward acceptance speeches) at the Emmys. Then we spark up some history with our Has-Ben, the one and only Benjamin Franklin—kite, key, and all. To top it off, we plug into some electrifying Bentertainment with trivia loosely (but hilariously) connected to electricity. Get ready for laughs, lightbulb moments, and a positively charged start to your new favorite Ben-centric podcast.

Then, we sit down with professional golfer Ben Warian, fresh off a tournament win in Sweden and now chasing his PGA Tour card.

Then, in Bentertainment, the Bens face off in Hero or Philosopher?—a game where they must guess whether a quote comes from a caped crusader or a deep-thinking sage.

🎧 Listen on SpotifyGrab your paddles and bug spray — on this epidsode of A Case of the Bens, we head deep into the Boundary Waters. Bresch makes his podcast debut, sharing a true tale of canoe-trip chaos and the kind of misadventure that only happens when you’re miles from cell service. Our Has-Ben honors Benny Ambrose, the legendary last permanent resident of the Boundary Waters, who lived off the land long after everyone else left. Then we interview Ben Seaton, an outfitter at Hungry Jack Outfitters, to talk portages, moose encounters, and life along the Gunflint Trail. Finally, in Bentertainment, the Bens face off in Wilderness Survival Trivia — because nothing says “prepared for nature” like guessing bear attack strategies and the identity of Red Fred.
