Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's Covino and Rich's producer Danny g Another really
fun week on the air. Thank you for being a
part of it. We wrapped up the week with a
really cool double trivia game for both holidays this weekend,
May the fourth or sinco enjoy the best of the
best of the best of the week.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
Mike Tyson has said, much like a lot of great fighters,
Rocky Balboa, perhaps you heard of them, no women, no
weed leading up to the big fight July twentieth with
Jake Paul. But the bigger update for a lot of
other people is that it's an actual sanctioned fight now

(00:41):
as of today, meaning it counts on their record. Professional
boxing is acknowledging it as a real fight. It's a
legit fight. That's a for speculation. People still want to
say there's a fix, or it's all about the money.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Or it's sanctioned.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
It's a sanction fight and fight, so so part of
that is there is an official winner.

Speaker 3 (01:01):
When it's an exhibition, there's no official.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
In the in the books winner a La Tyson, Roy
Jones Junior. But this is a sanctioned pro fight as
of now. That's the big important update. But the other
side question is when you say no weed and Mike
Tyson's known for his mic bites and his Tython ranch
and hot boxing, and you know he dabbles in that world,

(01:28):
and you say no women dabbles. Would you say that
is clear advantage? Do you think that doesn't matter? Especially
when you think about what Ryan Garcia just pulled off.
You know, he was partying, said he drank almost every
night leading up to the event at the way In
him and his dad both admitted it was apple cider

(01:49):
and water or something like that. I mean, clickingnated a happening.
Some people are saying Garcia pulled the fast one on
everyone on Vegas, on everything right, But when you see
what he was capable of doing, you know, does it
really matter that much if you're that talented, if you're
that prepared. You know, it's like in life, if you're
that prepared and you're that responsible, you sort of get

(02:12):
a little more leeway. Even as a dad, I give
my daughter more leeway, you know why, because she's responsible,
she does well in school and everything else. If Tyson's
disciplined and dedicated and prepared, does it matter that much
if he has a drink, If he has a joint
here and there. He's saying he's not doing it either way.
But I just wonder that, like Danny g if I
told you from now until July twenty first, no effect

(02:35):
the weed Mike Tyson style, would that affect you? Do
you think that would affect most guys herman like it's
not hurting to play it disciplined, right?

Speaker 3 (02:46):
I think it would put you on edge for sure.
And do we want that to come out of mic?

Speaker 2 (02:50):
Is that the point is the point to is a
point to unearth the buried angry Mike Tyson? And oh,
we said that when we speculated about two weeks ago,
because the announce then was he's gonna stop smoking, right,
it was smoke?

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Was a cigarettes? Does he smoked cigarettes? Just weed? He's
just this guy's high every day.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
Because yeah, this will said specifically so that he could
be aggravated and agitated and take it out on his opponent.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Yeah, this rumor has been out there for a few
weeks and he officially made it known, no weed, no women.

Speaker 3 (03:22):
But now it's no women. Yeah, no women is the update.
So if you take a guy like Mike who spent
the better part of a decade becoming this calm, chill
version of himself. I'm not that guy anymore.

Speaker 2 (03:32):
Like he loves to talk about how he's not that
guy anymore. He's philosophical. This guy smokes and talks like
Neil de Grasse Tyson about the universe and the world
and life. And you take Mike Tyson back to the
old school Mike, where he's pent up, angry, irritated. You know,
this is a real crazy strow release. This is a

(03:55):
crazy stretch. Hold on, hear me out though. That's his
medicine in a lot of ways, right, that calms him
down and makes him a better person. He said that
himself like weed, and when he locked the toad's.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
Back, he licked the toad. Remember that we changed his life.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
Calven know we saw it for ourselves when we were
broadcasting live in Vegas at the Blue Wires Studios. He
was there doing the hot box and podcast before we
went on. When you yeah, he got he was frustrated
and they had to get him out of there. He
was really angry. Why remember he found out he couldn't
smoke weed inside the new studio.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Yeah, so when you take a few hours, Yeah, for
a few hours, I say, medicine in quotes. Air quotes
is right. I mean when you take people off their medicine,
things could happen. Air quotes not necessary over the weekend.
This is like a silly side story that's in my
Voto algorithm.

Speaker 3 (04:43):
I have a Voto algorithm. What was Selena's brother's name? Ab?
That was their dude? Anything for you Selena's I think
you're right. What's his name? Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're right.
He was doing.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
A show at his hometown in San Antonio and they
started booing them right, But then he went off on
the crowd like.

Speaker 3 (05:08):
You guys are whack. I hate you guys if you
anyway right.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
And it became this viral Vatos story, like yo, man,
he lost it on stage because he was attacking the crowd.
He then had to go to social media and apologize
because he said he got a cancer scare and because
of the testing and everything he was doing, he had
to be off his medication and all his bipolar sort
of tendency started to come out and he had just

(05:35):
been off for a few.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Days or whatever. So he apologized.

Speaker 2 (05:38):
So, hey, you take Mike Tyson off the weed, you
never know what angry side of him might come out
and he'll take that out on Jake Paul, and that's
what we want to see his fans. The point in
the stretch and the side story was, or the analogy was,
maybe that's what people need to get into that zone.
It's not a zone they want to be in. But
if you're gonna be in the ring and you're gonna
be fighting somebody, it might work to your benefit in

(05:59):
that moment.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
We're not just talking a little bit of weed either.
A few years ago, on that same podcast of his,
he admitted he burns through forty thousand dollars a month.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
Dude, that's a lot.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
I mean, this is not a guy that takes an
edible to get some rest once in a while, or socially
on a Friday night, you know, passes it to the left.
This is the guy that's high and subdued most of
the time on the New mic tythan that guy. Combined,
combine with no sexual release, we might see a very frustrated, different, angry, agitated. Yeah, yeah,

(06:36):
that might be the good thing. So again, what are
your thoughts on that? Again, the update is a su
sanctioned pro fight. Now, no weed, no women, and are
we going to get victory as a result. Do you
think it doesn't matter as much after you saw what
Garcia pulled off?

Speaker 3 (06:55):
What if I told you that? I think here's my thoughts.
I want to make it clear.

Speaker 2 (07:01):
I don't think there's any harm in staying disciplined and prepared. Right, So,
you could be talented, but if you're talented and disciplined,
more power to you. I think that's only going to
add to your results. So I don't think there's any
harm in being disciplined to this level. Is it necessary,

(07:25):
Like I said, Ryan Garcia is going to prove that otherwise. Yeah,
I mean that's my point. My point is if you
told me, hey, Rich, take any vices one might have,
no women are gambling or drinking or drugging, don't do that,
you know, for the next three months because you're preparing
for something big at work, for whatever you do at work.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Do you really think.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
Those type of adjustments would make you a better, more
prepared man or is it just irritating him for no reason?

Speaker 3 (07:54):
Yeah? Well, put yourself in that situation.

Speaker 2 (07:56):
Right, Let's say, all right, it's not even May yet,
this fight's in July.

Speaker 3 (08:00):
And that's what I'm saying This is not like twentieth.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
So if we said to you, the average fellow who
just has to get ready for I don't know, a
presentation at work or a sales meeting or anything. Hey man,
you can't have any familiar relations, sexual relations, a drink,
whatever it is that you do. Like Rich said as
your vice, you can't do any of that. You can't
have a day off until that date, July twentieth. How

(08:27):
aggravating and irritated.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Would you be.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
You'd be on edge, dude, right, So it's only going
to add to this guy's inner monster, and I'm excited
for it now that it is a sanctioned pro fight.
I don't think Tyson's one that cares much about legacy here,
but I think it matters that much more, Like you
don't want to lose to Jake Paul in your professional record,
So I think that's awesome. I think advantage Tyson. The

(08:52):
public sentiment, we can move on. But the public sentiment
Cavino has changed. Well, you mean the Vegas on Vegas.
What does Vegas know again when they were just duped
by Garcia. I hate to keep bringing him up into this,
but Vegas had him as a major underdog because he
was trolling everybody. Mike Tyson grew up with doped Vegas

(09:14):
Jake Paul. According to The New York Post Yesterday, Vegas,
he's a massive betting line movement as Tyson's sparring, videos
and personal decisions are made public, so rich people watch
you have edibles for a week, you'd be hard to
deal with. Imagine Tyson giving up weed for two months.

(09:35):
Let's see the betting public is all in on Mike Tyson.
The line is only moving in one direction. And that's
but that could be a bunch of thirty forty fifty
year old guys like us betting on Mike Tyson.

Speaker 3 (09:45):
Is it's our childhood? Hey?

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Or have you seen rich when he doesn't have coffee?
He's like a little baby bee. Honestly, if I, if
I would we when Riches have a coffee, you would act,
you would think his world was ending.

Speaker 3 (10:00):
I got a raging headache. Oh he's like a grumpy,
like angry Mickey Mouse. I'm not listening.

Speaker 2 (10:07):
I want to make it clear. I'm not that so
can you imagine Mike Tyson without his weed? I'm not
that great, I'm not that a hole. That's like don't
talk to me and to him my coffee. No, I'm
not that guy. I'm saying I personally will feel I
got a headache, and I just I'm.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
All there, you feel kind of under the weather.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
Yeah, because in the morning, I'm like, I need something
to get me rolling.

Speaker 3 (10:25):
I haven't had my coffee. And then at night, you.

Speaker 2 (10:28):
Know, if you, if you know, if you if your
guy that takes a little edible or has a little cocktail,
a little old fashioned or something, you might not be
able to take it a good night's sleep. Mike Tyson
for the next three months is going to be disciplined
the way he was ready to explode on Jake Paul's face. So,
Mike Tyson, that punched at Helms in the face and uh,

(10:49):
you know the hangover that angry Mike Tyson. Angry Tyson
will mess with me. That angry sort of snarling could
snap in any moment, Mike Tyson, and I hope that
Tyson doesn't show up when we do a very special
Monday edition of Tyson Trivia giving away prizes to get
the week going, I guess there has to be a
fun week sink go to my weekend coming up and

(11:10):
Canelo Mungia this weekend.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Speaking of fights, Spotty should light up a joint right
in front of him.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
See what he does, See what he does? Yeah.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
By the way, Tyson, according to Las Vegas and some
of the sports books, Tyson is far and away the
better's favorite more than any other fight in.

Speaker 3 (11:27):
This year, this year possible, dude, he gets you know
what it is.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
It's a bunch of people that are like us, forty
year old dudes that are like Mike Tythan's my childhood
I played punch out in my childhood bedroom. It's Mike Tyson.
There's no way he could lose to an influencer. And
the sentiment is, oh, he's an underdog too, So I
could double my money to drop that narrative. By the way,
that Jake Paul is an influencer, that's garbage. That dude's

(11:50):
been boxing for years now at a steady pace, so
he's not an influencer anymore. I want to hear this,
want to hear how much he was an influence. I'll
wrap with this and then we'll talk about Kevin Durant
and NBA and NFL Draft, all the stuff on your mind.
Mike Tyson from the time this boxing line opened, do
you know it is now dropped. As of this past Friday,

(12:13):
a couple days ago, Tyson is a near even odds
in the fight. He is plus one h five. Jake
Paul is minus one thirty. This started out as Jake
Paul minus three hundred, minus four hundred, and Mike Tyson
was a significant three to one underdog, and now according

(12:34):
to Las Vegas even money with but to Douglas with
forty two to one eighty two to one money. How
do you explain that big swing? Is everyone just delusionally
thinking this, no way Mike Tyson loses. I think there's
a great chance that he could lose, only because he's
fighting strength and youth and well again father times on defeat.

(12:54):
As you said, Mike Tyson's thirty second videos might be impressive,
but those are for thirty seconds against a sparing partner.
Do we all want to see obviously Mike Tyson winning,
But I think it's going to be a much closer
fight than anyone realizes. Jake Paul is a big, strong kid,
and he's a boxer.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
He's not an influencer. So anyway, that's the update.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Professional sanctioned fight, No weed, no women only victories for
Mike Tyson at least three hopes. So it sounds like
a boring three months. Yeah, I know, right, So it
sounds like three months. I don't want any part of it.
And you know what too, if you're gonna make that
sacrifice too, you want to make it count, you better
win man. So yeah, exactly. So that's that's added pressure

(13:34):
to what did I do all this for? If I'm
not going to annihilate this guy in the ring, which
was probably exactly another reason why the line has moved
so much, because people like, if Tyson's really going to
take the serious, if he's really gonna take the serious. Yeah,
so that's putting the pressure on him to show up
July twentieth against Jake Paul.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
So props. Happy to hear it.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
Like I said, discipline and dedication is never going to
hurt that Charlie Ounold story was actually pretty cool because
that's how you get opportunities.

Speaker 3 (14:04):
There's a part of everybody that's like, I.

Speaker 2 (14:06):
Don't know, but that's when you got to step up
and just deliver in the moment. The first time I
was ever on air, it was sort of probably an
emergency situation like, hey, can you do this? And I'm like, uh, yeah,
I didn't know what I was doing.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
But you figure it out. You figure it out.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
What's it doesn't the story? Someone asked you if you
knew how to run the board first time you had
to run the board. I had an idea, but I
didn't really know how. It wasn't the story like you
were at some rock concert party and you had had
a bunch of drinks and you said, all the lights
on the board looked like no, that I had that experience,

(14:45):
but not my first time. First all the lights on
the board looked like, oh, you're telling a different story.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
All right.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
This ties into Mike Tyson before we get into Kevin Durant.
So way back in the day, early days of radio,
the late nineteen hundred's k K Rock New York. Right,
of course, I'm a young dude, so I had to
work the like Christmas night or something like that, right,
Christmas night or New Year's Eve. It was one of those, No,
it was Christmas night, and it was apparently tradition where

(15:14):
one of the old school engineers that worked there would
smoke out the one person that had to be there
on that night. Oh, so you were You were the one.
He's like, he's like an older guy. So I'm like,
he's like, I have to be respectful to this dude.
He's like, listen, this is tradition. And I'm like, really, dude.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
I said I couldn't.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
I sat there at the concert and no way someone
could do that in twenty twenty four. I sat there
at the console and those boards were giant and old
school back then, and all I saw was lights blinking
and my heart was paling.

Speaker 3 (15:46):
I was like, oh, this is a nightmare.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
That wasn't my first time ever doing it, but it
wasn't that far into my career either. But the point
here is sometimes in life, even though you feel nervous
about it or reluctant or hesitant or any of those things,
you just got to step up and do it. The
end is that just a great lesson also on life,
no matter what you do for a living, if if

(16:08):
you feel like you're a capable man or woman, if
you feel like, I know I'm good at getting the
job done, I'll figure it out. When someone goes, hey,
you know how to do this, I think a lame
answer is like no, hookh exactly like how are you
gonna get opportunity if you have ever done it? But
I'll figure it out. We're just lying so you can
the opportunity.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (16:27):
In the worst case scenario, ask questions as you go. Hey,
I was Sam if they were like, iwa Coavin and
Rich both got stuck in traffic. There was an accident
on the one on one Can you be on the
can you host the show?

Speaker 3 (16:38):
What is your answer? Well, the way if I say no,
I'm gonna look like a huge lame mod.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
That's the reminder here, Charlie Arnold, have you ever announced
a professional UFC match?

Speaker 3 (16:51):
No? Nope? Can you do it? Yeah? Bam?

Speaker 2 (16:56):
And then it makes national news. She's the first woman ever.
That's awesome And actually Rich My first interview was one
of those moments. Booker in New York. One of the hosts, right,
isn't he was running late? He's part of iHeart Lay.
It was running late or sick or something to get
an interview with Collective Soul, And the boss is like,

(17:17):
can you do it? And I'm like, let me collect
my thoughts at the time, you know, And I was like,
and you're probably thinking that Collective Soul, who cares at
the time, like I hadn't done that before with any
like real rock band, and I'm like good bye.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Yeah, so like you just gotta do it. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
If there is a lesson time to step up, that's
never when given an opportunity, professionally, personally, anything, never have
the lay mass answer of like I.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Don't think I could do it.

Speaker 2 (17:45):
Yeah, And look that's how that's what losers are cut
from that cloth.

Speaker 4 (17:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
And if she hadn't done it and she let fear
get in the way, she wouldn't have been the first
and she wouldn't have had all this press over the weekend.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
And it was a proud moment.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
You might get mom spaghetti all over your I was
a kid in radio Stockton, California. Our morning show was
booked to go on stage at the Oakland A's game
and introduce the fireworks. And our morning guy was sick,
couldn't do it. So the PD says, Danny, you're doing nights.
You're going out there. And I went into the bathroom

(18:20):
and I hurled. I was so nervous well because to
walk out and see all those people at the at
MLB Stadium.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
I was a kid, I know the feeling man It
was an episode of How I Met Your Mother, one
of my favorite old school sitcoms, where Robin, you know,
one of the main characters, gets her chance because Sandy
whatever the creepy news guy was, was off like grabbing
some ass during the New Year's count.

Speaker 3 (18:41):
Then I'm like, you're on. Like sometimes you're on is
all you need.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
We've all been We've all came up the same rank
as Charlie Arnold, right like she was on our TV
show on ESPN again you said out kick. She's had
a great career in broadcasting, wrestling, UFC, all this stuff.
But if Dana White, whoever was there that night, came
up to you, you think you'd be able to do it.
Of course, Yeah, no doubt you do it, Howard Finkel,

(19:06):
That's what you would.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Do coming down me.

Speaker 2 (19:09):
This match is schedule for one fall with a sixty
minute time limits.

Speaker 3 (19:14):
That's the rich were from.

Speaker 2 (19:15):
Parts unknown, Dan Bayer, who's got an update, Dan feel
like g felt though I really would, There's no question
about it. Even though we're on national radio every day.
There's a part of me that would be like, oh,
this is nerve wreck.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
It's just a little easier, like a backup quarterback when
you go in in the middle of a game based
on having it get in your head for a whole
week leading up when you're scheduled to do it, So
that makes it slightly easier. Yeah, you're still scared s
list though.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
All right, Well, we got to talk k D. Kevin
Durant is Rich has a theory and a hot take
on him. But first, our boy, our guy d B
Dan Bayer.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Danny Gee's, Danny G's puke still hasn't been cleaned up
from the Oakland colise ANSA City Chiefs gave Travis Kelsey
a new contract extension two years, thirty four point twenty
five million dollars, and Kelsey becomes the highest paid tight
end in the NFL and is now under contract through
the twenty twenty seven season.

do that, and I can't, So props to him either way.
Just our observation. How can you be so great whether
it be at another sport or an instrument, but you
can't throw baseball. Come on, it's just be fuddling to us.

(21:25):
That's all baseball. But again, he's great at something. We're

Kong Hong kong? Alright, you're in. Let's do this.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Here are the rules, the rules for checking the first contestant. Yeah, yeah,
just scared the crap out of somebody in front of them.
All right, the first contestant with two correct answers is
the champ. If there's a tie, we have a tie
breaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do
have to wait until all three possible answers are read

(24:21):
two wrong answers in a row.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
We move on to the next question. Are you ready check?
Was that a horn or your stomach? Belly?

Speaker 7 (24:27):
Let's get it on, Let's get this shock party started.
Who is the only team to beat the Celtics at
the Boston Garden during the eighty five or eighty six
regular postseason? Regular and postseason? Was there eight the Lakers
be the Trailblazers? Oh see the Sixers rum Jerome seventy

(24:49):
six ers. He guessed, No, sorry about that. You're own
Rich Rich for the steal.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
I mean just gets to the rivalry. I would have
went six Ers two, but since he was wrong Lakers,
no dat, Dabit Rich. I was gonna take trail Celtics.

Speaker 7 (25:04):
And the Boston Guarden at the Boss Guard during it
eighty five eighty six regular trail Blazers Lasers one. On
December sixth, eighty five, Boster's total home record was in
insane fifty in one.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
I think this should be a rule.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
If you get it wrong with two answers left, you
are not eligible to answer them.

Speaker 3 (25:22):
I got to smack. I'll get to fifty to fifty, right,
I get to kick you. You can't answer the next one. Yeah,
shack gets to kick you. Get to hit you in
my shoes. We'll take that in front of the rules.
Can I hit sixteen? All right? Round two? Nobody gets
that one? Round two?

Speaker 7 (25:38):
Which player has the most career blocks in the finals?
Heyj cem Olajuwan greet Tim Duncan or see Kreem abdu
Jabbar Jerome Jerome? Yes, yeah, has an amazing number. He
has one hundred and sixteen. One hundred and sixteen blocks.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
He just stood there.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
He didn't even have to lift his arm. One hundred
and sixteen. That's crazy, all right? Jerome is on the
board as we moved around three.

Speaker 7 (26:05):
Oh. When I was little, I mean I was never
really little, but when I was a little kid, when
you were young, ice to wear extra large divers. I
used to play with my stepfather's cool colored ABA basketball.
When did the ABA and NBA merge A nineteen eighty
b nineteen seventy eight or she nineteen seventy.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
Six, Dan Bayer seventy six? Yes, it gets on the
board August nineteen seventy sixth, that's right, August of seventy six.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Queen, name an Aba team that didn't make the cut?
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (26:39):
Can you.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Get colonels right? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (26:44):
I feel like there was one they highlighted on winning
time the Tropics. The Tropics continue.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Check Bayer and Jerome both on the board. As we
moved around four. What was the most points ever scored?
Private the legend Michael Jordan in one game? He's sixty
five B sixty nine? Or is he seventy two?

Speaker 3 (27:05):
Dan Buyer for the win? Sixty nine?

Speaker 11 (27:09):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (27:12):
Funny say about that one.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
Stacy King after the game, saying, I'll never forget the
night he and Michael Jordan combined for seventy that was.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
That's awesome. It's against the Cavs in nineteen ninety.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Good knowledge there. Bayer gets another W on his record.
That's seventeen for Buyer. Now, thank you Jerome, Yeah, Jerome
in Texas driving that big rig. We thank you for
listening and enjoy the game tonight.

Speaker 7 (27:37):
Let me tell you Nick's are gonna win Magic and
I'm going pagers tonight.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
All right, all right, thank you for the horse's mouth,
nid of guys later, body, Thank you, Shack.

Speaker 3 (27:48):
We'll see you next week. There are guy, We have
all the stars on this show. He's gigantic, that guy.

Speaker 4 (27:55):
And I wasn't trying to penalize rich. What I was
saying was it gives you more. Do I want to
take the fifty to fifty? Yeah, with the risk of
maybe if I don't know the answer, or because it
would take me out of That was the whole dome.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
I agreed, which is why I didn't answer the next question.
I think it's fair.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
If you're going to take a shot at to fifty
to fifty and you get it wrong, you should not
be able to answer the next question.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Why Shack was holding a shoe on his way up. Yeah,
you get it wrong.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
Hit you with it man, Thank you, Shack, Yeah, thank you, Wack,
Diesel giving away prizes.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
Let's go to Dan Buyer for an update the Big Winner.
What's up Dan?

Speaker 4 (28:31):
Hey, guys, Sure, we'll be hearing about it throughout the night.
Mike Trout just speaking, got emotional when talking with reporters
that he's going to need knee surgery to repair a
torn meniscus in his left knee, out indefinitely. Angels GM
Perrymanasciena says that the injury is not believed to be
a season ender. But again, Trout, who is tied for

(28:52):
first for the most home runs in the entire Big
League so far this season with ten, now going to
be out indefinitely for an Angels team that is lost
eight of their last ten. Earlier today, the Cardinals scored
twice in the top of the nine to beat the
Tigers two to one. It's game one of a doubleheader.
Astro's option first baseman Jose Abreu to their minor league
complex in Florida. It appears Joelle Embid's gonna play tonight

(29:14):
showed up at the arena the Sixers Center misshoot around
this morning because of a Migraine. Sixers and Nicks seven o'clock.
Eastern Nicks up three to one in the series. They
want to have boy On Bogdanovich, who's out for the
rest of the season. He'll need foot surgery, Magic and
calves eight Eastern Pacers and Bucks nine to thirty Eastern time.
Pacers can close that out with a win. They're up

(29:35):
three to one. Milwaukee likely without Giannis and Tetakupo and
Damian Lillard. Gianna says a calf injury that is now
very similar to the injury that Kristaps Porzingis has for
the Boston Celtics. Celtics calling it a calf strain. He's
gonna miss Game five, and reports say he'll miss several
games in this postseason because of the injury. Heat without
Haimi Haaks Junior for Tomorrow's Game five because of a

(29:56):
hip injury, and the Clippers have already ruled out Kawhi
Leonard Ford Tomorrow's game against the Mavericks. Champions League SEMIS
first leg, barn Munich and Real Madrid played to a
two to two draw, and Guys TV Rings for the
NFL Draft in Sports Business Journal says for the three
day event, they were down three percent from a year ago.
First round viewership on Thursday, though, was the highest since

(30:17):
twenty twenty one. Back to you guys.

Speaker 2 (30:19):
You know why because there was two hundred and seventy
five thousand people there, so they weren't.

Speaker 3 (30:23):
Watching on TV.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
But also I can't believe keep in mind, though six
quarterbacks won the first round. So the all the go,
all the pizazz, all those you know, a lot of
offensive players, you know, and keep in mind, more offensive
players than ever. Then all of a sudden, then second
round or so defense started coming in. So because it
didn't seem like it lost any flair this year, I mean,

(30:46):
it just seemed like a magnificent, massive event. Let me
let me pose a question to you. Yeah, and you
could think about it and maybe you could wrap the
show with it today.

Speaker 3 (30:56):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
I don't want to overpromise, because we did promise something,
did we. There's such a pea brain, such a pee brain.

Speaker 3 (31:03):
You know Shaq was right about you heard him.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Oh you're a ozembic hypothetical. Yes, save it for tomorrow. Sure,
save it for tomorrow is not a hypothetical.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
It's a story. But I think it's also a more
lengthy conversation. I don't want to rush it. This is quick.
This is quick.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
Ezekiel Elliott gonna be doing stint too with the Cowboys.
A la herschel Walker who you know, we all know
the famous trade to Minnesota. Came back, played behind Emma
Smith for one year, primarily as a kick returner. Right
when was the last time you remember the second time

(31:43):
being any good for a player on a team like reunited,
And to me, it's so far in few between where
the reunion is nice and a lot of times it's
nice because they get to say farewell to the fans
a la pool Holes or Ichi row or something like that.
But when was the last time a guy came back
to his OG team and was actually productive? Productive? Kavino

(32:06):
is the keyword there. That's a tough one because they
always do it. I feel like there's a Yankee that
came back and hit them, But did team Bamtino? Yeah,
Bamtino came back and hit some bombs and went on
a nice little run. It's funny you said that because
look at I was searching Bamtino, the Bam Tino Martinez,
anyone come to on for you debaate and Tino was

(32:26):
a he was he was a Mariner, but he won
with the Yankees. I associate him with the Yankees. Came
back to the Yankees and played well.

Speaker 4 (32:32):
You're talking end of career, correct, Because Lebron's return I
think would.

Speaker 2 (32:36):
Be the Bingo. That's the one that's he's the one,
go Bingo Bingo. He might be the one, Dan Bayer
that it could be beginning, middle, or end. I mean,
Zeke's not that old. I mean so I think the
fact that Lebron came back to Cleveland won a championship.
I don't know if anyone's ever been on a team
was the star of that team left, came back and

(32:56):
their second stint was really productive that much?

Speaker 3 (33:00):
It all is a good one.

Speaker 9 (33:00):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (33:01):
Usually, like you said, it's a farewell as you always say,
it's like a relationship. It's like it's like magic.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
You ever break up with a girl data again years
later and you always say it's the pet cemetery version
of that girl line. I don't say that. A lot
of like books have said that. You know, when I
would research books on how to get her back, they
would always say, she'll never be the same. You can
get her back, but it's gonna be a shell of
the original version. It'll never be the same one. They'll
be the same way. So if you ever thought about

(33:26):
this or an example, Lebron James is clearly thank you.

Speaker 3 (33:29):
dB. Number one answer on the board, what player was
a star on a team?

Speaker 2 (33:33):
Stars? Baseball, football, Basketball? You know the four majors, hot
Dog getting hockey.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
You can throw in there. Tyrese Maxie, what a shot.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
I hope you had a Tyrese Maxie sort of night,
seventy six ers, Calves Bucks sort of night. Are you
gonna give him the finger or what? I'm gonna give
him the finger like Tracy Morgan, I'm gonna get someone pregnant.
Did you see Tracy Morgan giving him flipping him the bird?

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Anyway? What a shot? What a game?

Speaker 2 (34:02):
Some great games last night, good games tonight. But we
also have to talk Anthony Edwards. Danny g you got
scoop on him? Is he Jordan's son? I heard he's
Michael Jordan's son.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Sure looks that way. Yeah, people are saying that it
could be.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
Honestly, it's just a fun rumor that people are running
with because of the way he's playing and how he
looks and seems sort of head and the ears are similar.
And Jordan has said like back in the day, he
was running wild around two thousand and one when Edwards
was born. I mean, I'm just saying I and he's possible.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
I doubt it.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
I mean, Rich, you might have some kids running You
did some damage in nearly two thousands too, NBA players.

Speaker 3 (34:40):
Never step out on their girlfriends or wives. You know that.
Oh yeah, good point. Loyal might be the father. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
MJ himself has admitted that Anthony Edwards looks the most
similar to him in his playing days.

Speaker 3 (34:53):
Yeah, you are the fun. That is a compliment.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
So Anthony Edwards says something about one of the other goats,
Lebron James. We'll get to that and according to the Internet, yeah,
TikTok in fact, which means it has to be true.

Speaker 3 (35:05):
I'll count two hundred days left then there.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
I'll just say rumors allegedly supposedly as people saying correctly
and correctly, Jordan was at three to five women per
day around the two thousand and one season, three to
five a day. It was during his later years. Women
were coming out left and right. He may have kids
out there? Was he the original spokesman for Chalk Maybe
one of them in the NBA guys chucked up seriously again,

(35:32):
rumors allegedly, who knows, it's just a fun story. But
Anthony Edwards is in the news and it actually involves Lebron.
He's not coming to Jordan's defense. He's coming to Lebron's
defense and we'll explain. And by the way, if you're
wondering why we're playing the whole b clib, we'll get
to that in midweek major with Spot. But last night
pretty fun that a bee keeper came to rescue the

(35:55):
Dodgers Diamondbacks game.

Speaker 3 (35:57):
And throughout the first pitch.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
Yeah, he was at his son's little league. Came when
they called him. He had to sit through traffic to
get to the stadium. That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
Hey, I gotta get there. Hey, you gotta sit in
traffic like everyone else, buddy. Yeah, but uh, I'm the beekeeper.
I'm here to save the day.

Speaker 3 (36:13):
So well, honestly, who's more important than that guy in
that moment?

Speaker 9 (36:17):
Right?

Speaker 3 (36:18):
Beekeeper?

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Yeah, there's like forty people there, they're all waiting. He's like, no, no, no,
I'm the guy. I'm the guy.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
My wife he heard this on the Dodger broadcast and
she said, is he the only bee keeper in the
entire city?

Speaker 3 (36:31):
I mean, you ever get down is it a wormbol
or rabbit hole on social media?

Speaker 2 (36:36):
Rabbit hole once you're going to space? Yeah, you ever
go down a rabbit hole? Because I know Spot has
of that good looking girl who's a bee keeper and
she picks up bees by the handful. It's it'll make
you be like but at the same time fascinating how
people that are in that world.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
Clearly there's not many.

Speaker 2 (36:55):
We had to wait two hours for the Dodgers Tbacks game,
but Beekeeper, there's no fear. Matt, hold on, hold on.
And by the way, speaking of that's from Tommy Boy
or is it Black Sheep? Tommy is Tommy walter Hauser
different plots. Paul walter Heuser, best known as Stingray from

(37:18):
Cobra Kai, is portraying Chris Farley in an upcoming film
with our pal Josh Gadd. I believe Josh gadd is
directing it or creating this movie. So a lot of
pressure on better get that right, Stingray, to get it right.
But I have a way back Wednesday question, I got
coffee coffee for the first person that knows it right? Okay,

(37:41):
based on the Beest, what word did they use to
describe the Jaba Chamberlain story in the playoffs? Midges trying
to oh you coffee man, and he wants and he
wants a VENTI I didn't say.

Speaker 3 (37:59):
But actually it's not politically correct to say that word
any like, no, no midges your thing of another letter. Yeah, yeah,
oh you were right. I would have forgot that. But
did anyone else really know? Or no, they're like very
small gnats.

Speaker 2 (38:14):
You want to said nats, right, I would have said Nats,
but it was they always used midges a midge.

Speaker 3 (38:18):
You're so right?

Speaker 11 (38:19):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (38:20):
For real?

Speaker 2 (38:20):
Loan Crin, I owe you one, so shout out. We'll
give them props and then we'll tuckle NBA. But Matt
Hilton saves the day. Matt and Hilton, everybody the beat
keeper in the Phoenix Scottsdale area that came to the
rescue for the Dodgers Dbacks game and his.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
First pitch was better than your boys the other day.
Noa Khan? Yeah, noa Kan.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
So hey, that's a pretty cool day for that guy.
Imagine that. You're like, what was he on his kid's game?
He said, dude, yeah, that's what Danny g says doing
this too. Yeah, you can't, honestly, when you that's a
great sort of observation. Rich, think about that, this dude
just cruising around doing his dad thing, being a b guy.
All of a sudden, all of a sudden, he's all

(39:06):
over sports center, Like, you don't wake up thinking this
could be the day I'm thrown out a first pitching.

Speaker 3 (39:11):
I'm the hero of the game. They said. He was
hanging around his kids baseball game. That's so odd.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
Cell phone started to ring. He picks it up. It's
the Diamondbacks. Then like, you gotta get over here. Now,
you know funny about that. I take my kid to
school like any good parent does, right, like any parent
has to. But I had this little lesson without even
thinking about that this morning. Here's two things you gotta
do as a parent.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
You got to introduce him to cool music on their
way to school, tell them what these songs mean to you,
be an influence, and then teach them a little lesson.
And I was like, you know what, I'm exhausted, melody
why dad, Dad couldn't sleep at all. But you know what,
you know it gets me up. What the thought that
anything could happen? Yeah, not bad things, that's nothing.

Speaker 3 (39:51):
A bad thing.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
I'm talking like, something cool could happen. An old friend
could reach out, you can get a promotion, something amazing.

Speaker 3 (39:58):
Think about that.

Speaker 2 (39:59):
This dude was the hero of the day, had no
idea that was about to happen. Well paid for his coffee,
unlike Isaacasta, Yes, what about her?

Speaker 3 (40:09):
Know what's in story? Yeah, went about his day hanging
with his kids.

Speaker 2 (40:13):
Probably dropped it dropped my kid off at gymnastics, going
to the kids a Little league game.

Speaker 3 (40:16):
You might see a heinee that changes your life all
of a sudden, you just don't know.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
All of a sudden, he's saving the day at Chase
Field and throws out the first pitch and Matt Hilton
is getting props today like no.

Speaker 3 (40:27):
Other bee keeper ever.

Speaker 2 (40:28):
You know what it reminds me of famous It always
reminds me of one of those like Ends of the
World movies where random guy becomes the hero, like no
random person gets a phone call like aren't you the
expert in like I don't.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
Know the Earth's core? Why I am come?

Speaker 2 (40:43):
Comes to the White House immediately, and then all of
a sudden they're dragging like a Jeff Goldbloom typed to
the White House in the war room, like I didn't
expect this. And that goes with our conversation Danny g
earlier this week. The spontaneity takes a lot of pressure
off of things like that, like had he known that,
you know, what on this day, I'm gonna have to

(41:04):
go there and be the hero and then throw out
the first pitch. Nerves might get to you, but the
spontaneity of it all makes it just like, what in
the hell is going on?

Speaker 3 (41:11):
It's just fun and what a day for that guy.
So they just left the bees there they were, but
why were they attracted? Like the wires? It was like,
was there covered in uh, some kind of sugar? I don't.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
Yeah, someone left their uh their chocolate curo on the
top top of the It was a brawl yesterday, and
the bee thing seemed a little more exciting, to be honest.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
That was interesting too, because if you've seen any of
the video clips, he was spraying the bee hive with
something and then not a hive.

Speaker 3 (41:43):
I guess he's.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Gonna swarm the swarm like swarming. Then he took like
the vacuum cleaner and they were okay. I gathered him.
I looked it up.

Speaker 3 (41:52):
It's sugar water spray that they used to calm to
calm the bees down, makes sense.

Speaker 2 (41:56):
Bees are essential to our whole ecosystem. Take a lot
ground your block because I do have my kids around.
Honey is one of the only things that doesn't have
an expiration date on it. Wow, dropping fun facts thirteen
minutes into the show.

Speaker 3 (42:10):
For real, Bee, it's the only thing my grandmother left
me in her will.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Here's my honey and Daniel Danny's still waiting to eat
it because it has no expiration. I'll take a walk
with my kids around the block. And you know, out
here in La there's a lot of lavender plants and
I always tell my son, I go, yo, Ben, look
at the plant lavender.

Speaker 3 (42:26):
What does it have? Bees? Yeah, the bees everywhere important
to this.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
We figured we'd harp on it, guys, because no one
else here on Fox Sports Radio will.

Speaker 3 (42:36):
So that's what we do.

Speaker 2 (42:37):
Cavino and Richer worldwide leaders of nonsense. Now we promised
you have some Anthony Edwards talk, and we got to
get into it. He posted something that I think everybody
could relate to understand. You might not agree, but you
can't deny what he says to be true. Okay, Now,

(42:59):
he posts via Instagram, Anthony Edwards Superstar. I've never seen
so many people be so happy to see an athlete
fail more than Lebron. Lebron James facts his whole career.
He's been hated on constantly and slandered to no end,
to the point where when he retires, no one would

(43:21):
have appreciated his greatness. I'm reading it word for word,
he says. I'm glad I will be the one who did.
Now he's not the only one, but he is one
who did. Okay, Yews. Now now you have to ask yourself,
well is this true? And you have to ask yourself, well,

(43:41):
why is Lebron James the most cheered against, rooted against
athlete in our lifetime? And like Covino said, you gotta
ask why because you could hear names like Michael Vick,
Ray Lewis, Deshaun Watson, Tiger Woods, Mike Tyson, Kobe Bryant.
People have had things happened throughout their career where fans

(44:02):
could be like Juana and all they did something questionable.
Lebron has done nothing of the sorts, or has he?
Is this an unwarranted reputation? Is this unfair? Or maybe
Edwards grew up he was a little kid. He doesn't
remember the perceptions some people had a Lebron. He just
looked at him as a hero. He stayed out of

(44:22):
the social issues. He agreed on what Lebron was standing
for at the time. Who knows what Edward. Maybe Edwards
just admired him as a basketball player, which a lot
of us should, right. But there's more to Lebron than
meets the eye. And that's why that's really it. Whether
you agree with him or not. The unwarranted response and reaction,

(44:43):
or the fans that don't root for him or hate
on him, that all comes from things that he brought
on himself. You could say for the greater good of mankind,
or you could say it just rub people the wrong way.
I mean, Kearry gets started with his sense of maybe
arrogance as a younger player, like when he was early

(45:05):
on in Cleveland. I don't think there was anything in
Cleveland he loved. It all started outside of Cleveland. I'm
talking Miami. I would say Miami, then the Miami. The
decision is what I'm the decision, the arrogance that maybe
a lot of people took from that. I'm not saying
it was there, but that was the reputation. That's what
he put out there. And then of course his stance
on certain social issues. I'm not debating whether his stance

(45:28):
was right or wrong. I'm saying any time you're outspoken
like that, it's going to be polarizing. And that's why,
be honest, I'll play dumb. What political stances has he
had the people? It's not political stances, more social issues stances.
Probably in the right. We're standing up for his people,
you know, just culture issues. That's all just being an

(45:50):
outspoken figure where Jordan kept to himself. That's really what
the conversation comes down to.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
Yeah, Rich, there was a whole space jam being released
in China thing, lots of different in COVID.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
Yeah, stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
There was any story where let's say he had a
stand up for the little guy, he did, and you
could say, well, good for him, because other superstars stayed
out of it, and you catch last flack as a
result of that.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
One thing we did point out on our show before, though, Covino,
there's been times where and I hate this, it's the
media's fault, the reporter's fault. They will run to him
like little kids anytime something breaks in the news and
they'll say, what's your thought on it, what's your stance
on it? And he feels that pressure. He's kind of
backed in it. He never hit from it. No, he
didn't commit that. But instead of saying, you know what,

(46:39):
I need to do some research on that. I need
to figure out what I think about that. He has
spoken and you could tell, like his book, he didn't
read into it, and so sometimes it just comes off
as you know, him just talking.

Speaker 2 (46:52):
So I'm not saying Anthony Edwards is wrong by any means,
but I think there's reasons that he people have reacted
that way, you know, for right or wrong.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
That's why there is a reason.

Speaker 2 (47:06):
That's why I want to love to Michael Jordan because
he wouldn't respond on things like that.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
Back in the day.

Speaker 2 (47:12):
He didn't and you just appreciated him as a basketball player.
Lebron James was way more out there with his opinions,
and again you could commend him for it, but it
also rubbed people the wrong way. It's like any polarizing figure.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
Rich. Yeah, but I still want to know why eight seven, seven,
nine nine on fucks.

Speaker 2 (47:29):
Like well because of antics, because of the decision, because
he because he flails his arms during.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
A foul like that way for reason.

Speaker 2 (47:37):
Yeah, there's a lot of people that don't like it
because he's great and sometimes you don't necessarily embrace the greatness.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
I mean, why would anyone really hate on Tom Brady.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
To be honest, he wasn't a guy that wasn't necessarily
outspoken by any means, and people hate on him because
simply he's great, right. I'm just curious as to in
a world where there are athletes are getting legal issues,
guys are getting bad accidents drugs.

Speaker 3 (48:04):
Well, you're asking. I don't hate Lebron James at all.

Speaker 2 (48:06):
I think he's one of the greatest guys and honestly
thrilled that we were able to witness him live and
watch his whole career. I mean, I took my little
brother to see him his rookie year just to make sure, Like, dude,
I want you to know you're seeing Lebron Shames, dude,
because he's a once in a lifetime guy.

Speaker 3 (48:25):
So you're asking the wrong, dude.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
I do want to say, I know the people out
there that do hate him, it's because he rubs them
the wrong way on the court and off the court.

Speaker 3 (48:35):
He can't say.

Speaker 2 (48:37):
You can't say it's because oh Space dram two and China. No,
I don't think anyone cares. I think it's because he
flails his arms during fouls. And he did the decision.
There's like you could point to a few moments that
Lebron seems arrogant or maybe entitled or something, whatever the
case may be. I feel like it's completely unwarranted for

(48:59):
him to be the most rooted against athlete of the
last twenty five thirty years. I mean, if you could
read my handwriting, I have it written down right here
on warrant unwarranted reputation. It's kind of unfair. But again,
it's like us doing a radio show. The microphone is
in that guy's face so much that he's gonna say

(49:22):
things eventually that just rub people the wrong way. We
as radio hosts every day deal with backlash because not
everybody's gonna agree with everything you say. And when you
live under that microscope and every word and everything you
do is speculated on, you're gonna have people that just

(49:42):
hate on it.

Speaker 3 (49:42):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
And he was very outspoken in his career. The point
has he never hid from anything. If I lived under
the Lebron hsoscope, yeah, I be canceled fifty times. All
the things you may have said or did. Dude, Oh
you might have been seen with a female coworker and
people have been like he cheating on his wife like
Lebron is pretty clear. The point is simple. Guys like

(50:04):
Jordan gave back to their community. It's not what I'm saying,
but back in those days, if someone went to Michael
Jordan with a question about any issue outside of basketball,
his reputation was and the way it was handled back
then was I'm not talking about that. We're talking about
basketball for the most part, at least in that era.
Is how Jordan handled his stuff, his business. Lebron didn't

(50:28):
shy away from those things, whatever the issue may have
been and not.

Speaker 3 (50:33):
And you know, as a radio host, not everybody agrees
with everything that's true.

Speaker 2 (50:38):
Now, will I will quote Dan Bayer, who was in
on the Update the day we were talking about the
NFL Draft. You think Dann Bayer, Isaac Lowancron, and MONTI
do you think they keep scoring? Who has the best
points on shows?

Speaker 3 (50:53):
They don't have to?

Speaker 2 (50:55):
It's me, okay, leaderboard, Isaac lowan Kron. Dann Bayer did
make a great point the other day. I'll give them props.

Speaker 3 (51:01):
I love dB.

Speaker 2 (51:02):
We're talking about how the NFL Draft went from a
bunch of old dudes smoking cigarettes with those Beije phones
in the seventies and eighties and like crappy hotel conference
rooms to hundreds of thousands of people AI technology. A
player gets drafted, he's all of a sudden running and
they're changing his jersey into the team jersey on the video.

Speaker 3 (51:24):
It's unbelievable.

Speaker 2 (51:24):
The NFL draft went from again nothing to a big
production that makes millions millions and millions watch, and Dan
Byen made the point that maybe in the future free
agency turns into something like that.

Speaker 3 (51:39):
So what Lebron did with the decision?

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Is it crazy to think other athletes hold a press
conference or an event where it's like, I'm gonna make
a choice, We're gonna yeah, we'll look back to high
school kids. He got such unnecessary hate for that. I
also think there's did all American high school kids line
up a bunch of hats and they're like, is he
gonna go to Georgia, Texas Alabama?

Speaker 3 (51:58):
Ahead of his time?

Speaker 2 (51:58):
On that? I don't think the high school kid doesn't
and it's oh, that's cool Lebron did it.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
Both hated guy. What year was that?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
By the way, because I remember watching it and thinking
it was awesome, Like, oh, I think cool.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
I think it's because the city felt of Cleveland of course,
felt like he was totally dissing them, pulling the rug
out from underneath of them. Remember people there were burning
his jerseys and stuff like that. It's that was the
bad perception from.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
Him that started it.

Speaker 2 (52:23):
Yeah, I want to feel on The update, by the way,
is Anthony Edwards says he wants to avenge Lebron and
he says, I have to get Lebron's revenge. It's only right.
So tell the Nuggets I'm coming. So that's the update there.
So he did post a question on Instagram about why
does Lebron get all this hate? Let it be known
that it'll never come from him, and now he's avenging him.

(52:47):
So kind of cool. Anthony Edwards doing his thing. Let's
go ahead and make me feel old. The decision presented
by the Lake Rate, Stuart Scott, Michael Wilbon, Chris Brussard.
He was there, John Barry, Jim Gray all on hand
in Greenwich, Connecticut. Yeah, a seventy five minute special. I

(53:09):
mean we were all watching on July eighth, twenty ten,
fourteen years ago. Ron James took the stage.

Speaker 3 (53:17):
When I were doing the show together, and I'll be
talking about.

Speaker 2 (53:19):
As he said back then, the most famous line, He's
going to take his talents to South Beach Beach.

Speaker 3 (53:25):
And he then became hated.

Speaker 2 (53:28):
He went from Akron Boy playing for the Calves the
future of the NBA, to like, look at this arrogant
I'm making a TV special rep. Yes, that was the
rep for your agency. A free agency has headed there
as his goat nests and greatness grew. People don't like
to see guys of his caliber complain to officials flop

(53:50):
and do those things. He's almost too good for that,
and it rubs people the wrong way. These are just
my assumptions. I can't answer that. I don't hate Lebron James.
I'm actually, like I said, happy we got to witness
his career. Agreed, now listen, we're running late, we're gonna break,
we'll come back. But I had one more thought about this.
You know, there's always someone the first person to do
something like like like there was one person that decided

(54:12):
I'm gonna drink milk out of the butter of a
cow that just happened to work out. There's always someone
that does something risky or not like, hey, do you
think we should eat a meat from that animal or
that that berry on that bush.

Speaker 3 (54:24):
One guy ate it buried dead. There's always one person
to do it first. Do you think if I was
the first guy to drop a what, I can't you
know what? I can't even say it.

Speaker 2 (54:33):
No, okay, fine, Now I'm curious what it is. If
Lebron James famous Snoop dog joke.

Speaker 11 (54:40):
If.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
Lebron James and the decision in twenty ten would have
went over amazingly, like everyone's like, wow, that was awesome.
I bet you it would have just been a trend
from that day on. I think everyone else saw it. No, nope,
not doing that. It was how it was handled. I
mean they've made specials about it. He made people wait
saying if the whole thing, if that it went well,
every other free agent in the major sports afterwards would

(55:04):
have thought maybe I should do a special. But because
it fell flat and looked bad, yeah, it was like, no,
not doing that.

Speaker 1 (55:09):
Remember how the Calves owner reacted, Eh, he looked. He
made Lebron his arch enemy there for a moment.

Speaker 5 (55:15):
Don't you remember?

Speaker 3 (55:15):
They even parodid it on How I Met your Mother.

Speaker 2 (55:18):
Bonnie Stinson had to pick his new favorite strip club,
and he did the decision Jim Gray. There was also
a backstory with Jim Gray and the questions. It's not
coming to mind now, but you know a lot of
these things along the years rubbed people the wrong way,
and maybe Anthony Edwards was too young to remember that.
Not saying it's fair, but he's like, he doesn't get it.
A lot of people don't get it. Why all the
unnecessary hate? Unwarranted? Hey on, Lebron, your thoughts, your feedback, We're.

Speaker 3 (55:42):
Going to you. Let's go Lebron James.

Speaker 2 (55:46):
Anthony Edwards said he gets the most unnecessary hate of
any athlete ever. Then he said he's going to avenge
Lebron to watch out Nuggies. Yeah, so a simple question.
Why why does everyone not like Lebron? D and FL
already started off rapid fire?

Speaker 3 (56:01):
What's up date?

Speaker 10 (56:02):
What's going on?

Speaker 9 (56:03):
Guys?

Speaker 12 (56:03):
What's the meaning he's Lebron? When you're Tom Brady, Lebron James,
Kobe Bryant, you're always gonna have one group who left
you and one group who hates you. I don't care
if Lebron James goes to Mars. I'm looking for the Marshas,
He's always been my guy. Next to Michael Jordan. He's
the greatest thing that's ever lived.

Speaker 2 (56:20):
Yeah, listen, dude, look at it this way. Polarizing people,
Howard Stern, Joe Rogan, Stephen A. Smith, Colin Cowherd, people,
you know, for people that are big and good at
what they do is equal hate always right, Floyd Mayweather Junior.
I mean it's true, Sam Ohio, what's up?

Speaker 3 (56:38):
Sam?

Speaker 8 (56:39):
What's up? Fellers? How was going?

Speaker 3 (56:40):
What's up? Why? We asked why Lebron gets all the hate?

Speaker 8 (56:43):
Listen, man, this started before the decision. Remember his mom
body my hummer in high school? Yes, oh yeah, you
don't want to think the kids stole the hummer?

Speaker 3 (56:54):
No, but that was a big story. It costs a
lot of speculation, Christen guys.

Speaker 8 (56:58):
The great philosopher Charles Barkley, he said, fifty percent of
the people gonna love you, fifty percent of the people
won't hate you. And that's fifty percent only gonna hate
you because they life's up.

Speaker 2 (57:06):
You know what that's tres. Charles Barkerley also said, hindsight
is whatever. Wayne in South Dakota, what's up Wayne?

Speaker 13 (57:14):
It's a couple of things. One, I think it's timing.
It was many years ago. If he did that today,
I don't know if it would be as bad. And
the other thing is I don't need to hear how
good he is all the time from him. His work
is good enough, he doesn't need to say it.

Speaker 3 (57:27):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (57:28):
He also embraced the King James, and he's putting the
crown on his head truatricks and look, which is all
great if you love him and you look at it
from a place of non hatred.

Speaker 3 (57:39):
See.

Speaker 9 (57:41):
I like that.

Speaker 3 (57:42):
I do too.

Speaker 1 (57:43):
But I think one of the things that was endearing
about Michael Jordan he would just shrug his shoulders, like
I don't know why I'm so great? Right, he would
never put a crown.

Speaker 3 (57:51):
On his head.

Speaker 2 (57:51):
And again he wasn't as outspoken dude, so less to
speculate on Tony in Miami.

Speaker 3 (57:58):
What's up, Tony?

Speaker 9 (58:00):
What's going on? Guys? I have to explain this because
I'm forty two and I work at a gym, and
there's a lot of teenagers and people in college that like,
look at me, like Mark is Zarelius from Gladiator? Like
why is he the king?

Speaker 8 (58:16):
Again?

Speaker 3 (58:17):
Right?

Speaker 9 (58:17):
He's not? So I believe it's not as politics. I
have to disagree with one of the earlier callers. He's
definitely not. The hatred towards Kirby Brady is not the same.
It's it's different things. It's totally different things, and it's
never near the hatred at Lebron. Lady would never be

(58:38):
both booed at a super Bowl, you know when he
showed on the big train, and Kirby, even if he
was alive, would never get the animosity that Lebron. Lebron's
situation is this. There was a kind of a touch
in how we for fifty years, fifty fifty years and
I back yard in the early you know, just CLIs

(59:00):
seventies and sixties of some highly judged players. We get
to twenty ten and this guy thinks he's just gonna
put a teaching out and get the same respect. There's
a footmark there and his retreats and.

Speaker 2 (59:17):
Yeah, listen, then Tony when he said we're gonna win one,
not one, two, three, four five, when he did that
whole routine, I think that also not two, not.

Speaker 3 (59:27):
Three, not four, not five, not six, not sive and
went off, oh boy, yeah, that was part of it.
All I know what.

Speaker 2 (59:36):
We'll take the rest of your feedback, but let's go
to Isaac for an update if that's cool with you,
and then back to the phone calls.

Speaker 3 (59:42):
Isaac Lowen Crown, all right, fellas.

Speaker 14 (59:44):
Major League Baseball today suspended Milwaukee Brewers reliever Abner Uribe
six games for causing that bench clearing brawl in last
night's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Brewers starting pitcher
Freddie Peralta was suspended five games. Brewers manager of Pat
Murphy susp into two games. Major League Baseball also issued
a three game suspension to Tampa Bay outfielder Jose Siri.

Speaker 3 (01:00:07):
Three games. You gotta be kidding me. You can take
your suspension and shove it up here, Siri. Good one.

Speaker 14 (01:00:16):
All I asked was where's the nearest gas station.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
It was also the extensive coverage. You don't think that
when you were watching ESPN or any barbershop visit and
they're debating Jordan and Lebron, it just got she's got excessive.
You know, you're like, all right, enough enough Lebron coverage
all the time. And that's coming from guys again who

(01:00:40):
all appreciate Lebron James, especially Danny g who's a huge
Lakers fan. Danny g got any final words as to
why maybe, Yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (01:00:49):
Think we covered it pretty well on AM five seventy
Our LA our big LA affhiliate.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
Yesterday.

Speaker 1 (01:00:56):
They were really hard on Lebron because they wanted him
to pick up Jamal Murray at half court there on
that final play. They're like, if you're the star of
the team, you gotta go pick up Jamal Murray on defense,
and they basically called him a bum, saying Lebron hasn't
done anything worthwhile for the Lakers. Completely disagree with that.

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
Sound. Yeah, I don't know if he deserves statues and stuff,
but yeah, exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
Yeah, I'm not putting a Laker statue out front for him,
But to say he hasn't done anything for the Lakers,
that's a bunch of bull.

Speaker 2 (01:01:23):
Well, that's that's been the question this whole week, is
like did he underachieve in his Lakers experience? So Anthony
Edward's saying that we need to appreciate his greatness and
he's going to avenge Lebron moving forward, Gonna have more
fun because.

Speaker 3 (01:01:39):
We have a guest. You mean, the beekeeper of all beekeepers.

Speaker 2 (01:01:45):
You mean, the most famous beekeeper in all the glory
and renown. It's our pleasure here on the Cavino and
Rich Show. You saw him at the Diamondbacks Dodgers game
the other night. Let's welcome Matt Hill and everybody. Hey, Matt,
what's up?

Speaker 15 (01:02:01):
Man?

Speaker 8 (01:02:02):
Hey?

Speaker 10 (01:02:02):
How you guys?

Speaker 11 (01:02:03):
Jared?

Speaker 2 (01:02:04):
Now, Matt Hilton not only the most famous bee keeper
in all the nation, he's the branch manager of Blue
Sky Pest Control in Phoenix, Arizona, and a lot of
people are calling him the real hero of the week,
the real hero.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
It was so awesome, It was so great. Matt. First,
I want to thank you for your time.

Speaker 9 (01:02:20):
Man.

Speaker 3 (01:02:21):
We have lots of questions for you.

Speaker 10 (01:02:23):
Sure, thanks for having me on.

Speaker 13 (01:02:24):
Guys, Hey, no problem, Matt.

Speaker 3 (01:02:26):
So if you don't know, Matt's the guy that you
know went to Chase Field.

Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
The bees were foreman behind home plate Dodgers Diamondbacks and
the game was delayed for a couple hours.

Speaker 3 (01:02:38):
Matt.

Speaker 2 (01:02:38):
When they call you and you're in traffic, knowing that
nothing could be solved until you get there, What was.

Speaker 3 (01:02:44):
That like, sitting in traffic knowing that everyone's sort of
waiting on you.

Speaker 10 (01:02:48):
It was pretty nerve wracking. I mean, I knew it
was a big deal when they when the head guy
that Chase Fields called me said the whole game was
on hold. I mean I just dropped everything and just
jetted and luckily I didn't hear it any traffic, but
definitely my mind was racing of all these scenarios that
could be wrong if I go wrong, if I ran
into some traffic, or you know, if the if these

(01:03:10):
situation went south, because these things don't always go super smoothly,
especially in this type of scenario when you have a
ton of people around.

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
What were you doing before you got this phone call, which,
by the way, I imagine you thought it was BS.

Speaker 3 (01:03:23):
You're like, what in the hell, what's going on?

Speaker 9 (01:03:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (01:03:25):
What were you doing? Like you were having a regular,
ordinary day? I imagine, right, Yeah.

Speaker 10 (01:03:30):
I was just I had just got to my six
year old son's last T ball game of the season, actually,
so I was there with my wife and four kids,
and yeah, if we were just starting the game with
him when I got the call.

Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Now, was there any part of you that for a
second was like, No, I didn't plan on this, There's
no way. I'm sorry, Like, was there any part of
you when you got the phone call that just wanted
to go home and put your feet up, or did
you say to yourself, no, I'm the man for this mission.

Speaker 10 (01:04:02):
Yeah, there's a when you there's not a whole lot
of clients that kind of have us on speed dials
to react this quickly. Chase Field is definitely one of them,
and so there's always kind of that in the back
of your mind. It's like, yeah, I don't want to
do this kind of doing my thing. I've fucked out.
But I knew that this is a big deal. And
when these types of clients call in, like we got

(01:04:24):
to rush out there, and it's not way often that
it happens, and oh yeah, I just I knew I
needed to get done.

Speaker 2 (01:04:31):
Matt Hilton the number one bee keeper in all the lands.
We keep enhancing your title, Matt. When you were taking
care of business at Chase Field, were there any Dodgers
or Diamondbacks that were particularly interested in what you were doing? Like,
did any player show an interest? Like?

Speaker 3 (01:04:44):
Oh, bees, tell me more, Matt.

Speaker 10 (01:04:48):
We've had a couple of them reach out afterwards asking
some questions or wanting to chat. But while I was
there doing the treatment, I mean, it was all just
kind of a tornado, and they were doing they're thing.
They were finally able to get on the field and
start warming up and get going with the game, so
they were kind of preoccupied. I didn't really rub shoulders

(01:05:08):
with them, so I can't really speak for that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
Well, we have audio of Mookie Bets. He was screaming bees. Wait.

Speaker 2 (01:05:19):
So again, if you guys missed it, it was one
of the bigger stories of the week. The bee colony
formed at the netting above home plate, right, So first
of all, how does that even happen? Like what caused
that to happen? And then what did you use to
remove them? Like what were you spraying and everything?

Speaker 10 (01:05:37):
Yeah, so a lot of people aren't super familiar with
African eyed honey bees. They're nicknamed killer bees. They are
honey bees, but the Africanized honey bees that we have here,
they're much much more aggressive type of bee, and they
are still important to our environment and ecosystem.

Speaker 11 (01:05:54):
So and so.

Speaker 10 (01:05:56):
But bee keepers don't generally keep Africanized honey bees due
to their extremely agre aggressive nature. But when a colony
gets large enough, they essentially a large chunk of them
breaks off, has a new queen and the cruise along,
flying and then they're just in this big cloud of
bees here in Arizona. Occasional we'll kind of be driving

(01:06:17):
or walking in this big old cloud of bees goes
over you will when that cloud decides to land, they
just land within a matter of minutes, and they have
the queen there in the middle and all the workers
are surrounding her, protecting her. And that's what we saw
there at the game that night with a swarm.

Speaker 2 (01:06:36):
Hey, Matt, at what point when you knew like I
got this under control? At what point did they say, Matt,
we'd like you to throw out the first pitch.

Speaker 10 (01:06:45):
It was within just a couple of minutes of coming
down from the scissor lift, because on my descent on
the scissor lift, I knew I had about maybe thirty
seconds of my fame. So that's when I was kind
of trying to work in the crowd a little bit.
So I figured once I got down, I'd do a
couple more fits bumps and be on my way home.

(01:07:05):
But man, it just spiraled out of control from there,
and they asked me to do the pitch, and I
was like, I don't know who was scheduled before me,
but I'll take his place.

Speaker 2 (01:07:14):
You know, I was going to ask you that did
you bump You didn't bump somebody? What if you bumped
some little kid? That's so funny.

Speaker 10 (01:07:22):
I never found out.

Speaker 3 (01:07:23):
So there was no hesitation. You're like, yeah, I'll do it.

Speaker 10 (01:07:27):
I was like, I could not say no to That's
that's a once in a lifetime opportunity. And it was
an awesome experience. Can't say I threw the best strike
in the world, but I gave him my go and
still a super special experience and a standing.

Speaker 3 (01:07:40):
Ovation man like that must have been awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:07:43):
Did you take your family with you since they called
you on such short notice, were you able to take
your kid on the field.

Speaker 10 (01:07:49):
No, because I mean I had to deploy so quickly,
and my twelve year old son he was asking if
he could go with me. But you know, it's not
something that it's just not something I can take him to, right,
I got you, and so, but yeah, they were The
d Bacs have been awesome though. They've actually they're going
to have host my family out there for a game
and one of these nights.

Speaker 2 (01:08:09):
Great, that's awesome. Matt Hilton, the guy that saved the day, beekeeper.
Matt I got one last question. I don't know about
Covido I got on. My question is when you get
this great moment of just you know, timing and fame
and like it goes viral and everyone's like, dude, the
beekeeper saved the day at the Diamondbacks Dodgers game. Who's
the most random person in your life that reached out

(01:08:31):
to you, like an old high school classmate, an old teacher,
like an old neighbor like Matt was that you like,
who's the most random person that happened to hit you up?

Speaker 10 (01:08:40):
There's been just a lot of people, like a handful
of people from gosh, like from my college days, I
mean fifteen years ago. That the people I haven't heard
from it a long time, and you know, everyone's wondering
what happened to that guy. There's actually been several of
those types of people that have reached out and it's
been kind of cool connecting.

Speaker 2 (01:09:01):
Yeah, a lot of random Facebook friend requests and you
own the moment, which made it even more special. You
leaned into it, had fun with it. You were the
hero of the day. You got the standing ovation. I
want to know if nerves kicked in at any point
when when doing your job right, because you know all
these people are watching you. There's almost twenty nine thousand
people there. You know it's televised. I don't know if

(01:09:21):
they put you on the big screen at any moment,
but like, did you feel like the pressure in that
moment and then the pressure throwing the pitch?

Speaker 10 (01:09:30):
I was feeling the pressure once I got to the
sizzor lift. You know, I'm fizzle list certified and I've
done sizzle lifts work a bunch, but a lot of
sizzor lists are different in like the controls. So I
get up there, everyone's watching me. I'm trying to like
figure out, Okay, which buttons am I pushing to go up?

Speaker 2 (01:09:46):
I feel like my arms would be shaken just doing it,
know whing all those people were watching.

Speaker 10 (01:09:50):
Oh I was shaking for sure. But the guys next
to the to me that's worked out exact fislift a bunch.
He kind of coached me over and once that kind
of went out, then I'm then I start racing in
my mind, like it, man, what could what could go
wrong here? If these bees start swarming out and start
singing people, or if I can't reach it that was
another thing. So my mind was just racing, like, hey,

(01:10:14):
how can this go south? But once I got up there,
I'm confident in my skills that I've done hundreds of these,
these the treatments before. So once I got up there
and knew I could reach it, then I was Then
my nerves started calming, and I hear them blaring the
I Need a Hero song in the background.

Speaker 2 (01:10:33):
Amazing, and you're the hero. So again, after it a
two hour b delay, Matt saved the day. He removed
the bees, he throws the first pitch, he gets the
standing ovation, the Diamondbacks win, and it was extra innings, right,
extra inning game.

Speaker 3 (01:10:46):
So everyone's like, oh, it's all because of Matt.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
And then the story gets even cooler because Tops announced
Tops who didn't collect Tops Baseball cards announced that they're
releasing a Matt Hilton autograph trading card.

Speaker 3 (01:11:00):
I gotta know what that means to you? How cool
was that?

Speaker 10 (01:11:03):
That was? When you asked about random people reaching out,
That's what I thought was you were gonna we were
going to get to was that was the most random
thing that has happened from this, Like you got all
the press and all that, and that's awesome. That's one
that kind of blew my mind because they reached out
to me and pushed the idea top did yesterday morning,
and in my mind, I'm just thinking, like, that's super cool.

(01:11:26):
But who in the world's going to buy this card?

Speaker 3 (01:11:28):
Dude, I want that card. It's going to be a
rare moment card. I love that.

Speaker 2 (01:11:32):
I think the idea is great. I think that's so cool.
Did you collect cards growing up?

Speaker 10 (01:11:36):
I did? Actually, I collect baseball cards, me and my
brother Sam and Will. They both they collected a bunch
of baseball cards.

Speaker 2 (01:11:43):
The stats are going to say, like, what twelve thousand
bees in one scoop?

Speaker 3 (01:11:50):
How many? Hey to tell you how many queens that
you got in your career.

Speaker 2 (01:11:54):
By the way, he is by far now the coolest
dad at his kids t ball game by far.

Speaker 3 (01:11:59):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 10 (01:12:01):
Well there's actually talk of the de Facts hosting the
whole key ball team.

Speaker 3 (01:12:05):
That's so cool. That's awesome.

Speaker 2 (01:12:08):
I was gonna say, for all like the lame, crappy
stories out there that we see every day, it's nice
when a good story comes along. So Matt, thank you
so much for being on the show Man and continued success.
And that's awesome, man. I'm glad your kids get to
see dad in his element too, right.

Speaker 3 (01:12:22):
Yeah, and that card. Congrats on that.

Speaker 2 (01:12:24):
Matt Hilton, the branch manager of Blue Sky Pest Control
in Phoenix, Arizona. We appreciate your time here on Fox
Sports Radio. And you're right rich with all the crappy stories.
That's like a fun one, dude, and like he stepped
up and came through in the moment, so that was awesome.
It's getting heated between Canelo and d la Hoya, almost

(01:12:44):
as heat as this Kendrick Lamar Drake beef throughout this week.
Have you been following that distrack Euphoria, Danny.

Speaker 3 (01:12:52):
G Yeah, I sure have, dude.

Speaker 2 (01:12:54):
These distracks are getting hard to decipher though they really
I'm a Kendrick fan, but they still make dis tracks.
The way they use it, it's like there's quadruple on tondras.
I have to look them up and google things.

Speaker 3 (01:13:04):
It's like it's no cool mo d ll cool j
Tupac biggie.

Speaker 2 (01:13:08):
I have a theory that people make these nasty faces,
like they get the disc, but they don't they look
it up later on because it's too creative and crafty
to figure out on the fly. But everybody's talking about
that beef now.

Speaker 3 (01:13:23):
Course, can't leave Eminem out of that convery.

Speaker 2 (01:13:25):
I know, right, there's so many We grew up with
so many great disc tracks from Tupac and ice Cube
and Eminem, and this one is sweeping the nation if
you haven't heard about it. But we love a great beef.
And speaking of fights, Ryan Garcia is in.

Speaker 3 (01:13:42):
The news now. He's been in the news for the
past few months.

Speaker 2 (01:13:46):
Which is crazy because, like I was trying to say,
there's a big fight this weekend, we're still talking about
Ryan Garcia. Yesterday came out that he failed his doping
test the day before his upset win over Devin Hayne.
What a dope again? This is uh per Mike Koppinger.
Coppinger the Anti Doping Association letter enttained by him. The

(01:14:08):
tests were taken prior to the fight, but the results
weren't known until later. The band's substances osterin ostereen, and
Garcia has ten days to request his B sample be tested.

Speaker 3 (01:14:19):
Now he's denying this and I believe him. I don't
know why, but I do.

Speaker 2 (01:14:23):
Because of the order of events.

Speaker 3 (01:14:25):
I believe him.

Speaker 2 (01:14:26):
Probably because of that and some of the feedback I've seen.
I got the scoop, and I'll give you reasons why
I believe this kid. There's not a lot of reasons
why I should because he's sort of out of his
mind lately, but I do believe him. Here's what he
had to say if you missed it. Ryan Garcia on
being caught with peds.

Speaker 16 (01:14:43):
What's up, everybody? I came on here to address this
claim that I cheated. Yeah, everybody knows that I don't cheat.
What can I say? You know, why didn't they come
out with this before, you know, the fight? If they
found it before, why would they let me step into
the ring as a cheater and they come out with
the victory and then they post this. You know again,

(01:15:05):
these are people that are trying to attack me for
whatever reason, but no weapon against me shall prosper. I
never taken stereoid or I don't even know where to
get steroids at the end of the day, I barely,
you know, take supplements. They're saying it's coming from the ostragandas.

Speaker 2 (01:15:21):
Ganda, he's all chocked up, and maybe it came out
in the test. I have no idea, but I know
looking at me, you probably think Coavino probably knows a
lot about steroid use.

Speaker 3 (01:15:32):
He's all jacked up. Look at that dude.

Speaker 2 (01:15:34):
Now, the truth is, I don't know much about osterin
or ostereen. I don't know much about it. Neither is
Ryan Garcia maybe apparently, but from what I've heard, it's
nothing that potent.

Speaker 3 (01:15:48):
Right, It's it's not approved by the FDA.

Speaker 2 (01:15:53):
It's found in supplements, and it's supposed to help muscle growth,
which does make sense if you're depleting yourself and trying
to make weight, you're trying to keep your muscles up.

Speaker 3 (01:16:03):
But again, not that it matters because if you cheated,
you cheated.

Speaker 2 (01:16:08):
But it's like on the level of creatine from what
I'm reading, like nothing that serious, just a band substance. Now,
there's reasons why I think he's innocent, and I want
to take your phone calls at eight seven to seven
ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox,
at Covino and Rich do you believe it's a witch hunt?
Do you believe he's innocent? Do you believe him or not?

(01:16:31):
Ryan Garcia, because as of last night, and here's the update,
he was hanging out with my old pal from ESPN
Stan Vrett, and he told Stan that he does not
want to rematch with Ryan Garcia after his positive drug test. Honestly,
and I quote honestly, I'm not too interested in it.
We've seen the guy cheat, We've seen the person that

(01:16:53):
he is. I don't see myself getting back in the
ring with him, but you never know. Boxing's just a sport.
My life in jeopardy. So now it's deeper than boxing
with me. I want to take this somewhere else.

Speaker 3 (01:17:04):
Now. He could have done some real damage, real dangerous
things to me that night. And that's not right.

Speaker 2 (01:17:11):
That's Devin Haney now saying he wants no rematch, not
even interested after everything that happened.

Speaker 3 (01:17:17):
That's a little dramatic.

Speaker 2 (01:17:19):
There is some drama there, right. But here's why I
think Garcia might be innocent. Tank Davis Gervonte Davis, who's
also in that mix, has no love for Ryan Garcia.

Speaker 3 (01:17:34):
He has no love for Hani either.

Speaker 2 (01:17:36):
But he reached out personally to Garcia and he said, Yo,
if you cheated and I'm defending you, I'm gonna beat
it out of you when I catch you next time.
And as you guys, remember, Gervonte Davis knocked out Garcia
in a previous fight, so you see the back and
forth correspondence. This was posted. The dms were posted on

(01:17:57):
social media. Ryan responded to Vane you'll see in the
next coming days. I didn't cheat, bro. We could just
run it again in a real fight, but nah, I
didn't cheat. Now these are inside personal messages between Ryan
and Gervante that leaked out, and I got to scoop
on it and the other reasons. I believe he's innocent,

(01:18:20):
and I'll break it down for you and take your
phone calls. Are four reasons. We saw the refs try
to cheat that night. We saw the referee not count
two knockdowns. Garcia had two knockdowns that they didn't count.
He said it was a slip.

Speaker 3 (01:18:39):
We all saw it.

Speaker 2 (01:18:40):
This guy's in a ring. Everybody watching on TV. You're like,
those were knockdowns. He said, no knockdown and then he
gave Devin Hainey extra time. That was sus as the
kiddos say, that was very fishy. We saw the referee cheat.

Speaker 3 (01:18:55):
We saw it reason number one. Renumber two. We saw
the judges boxing.

Speaker 2 (01:19:03):
Judges always shady, always sketchy, but again a majority draw.
What fight were they watching? Devin Haney was on his
ass six times in that fight. That was a clean,
unanimous decision, So we saw the judges cheat. That's reason
number two. Reason number three. Now, this is where it

(01:19:24):
gets confusing, because even the most knowledgeable boxing fan doesn't
understand how the testing works and how bad it works.
But you always hear as a fan that this guy
who runs the test, Victor Kanti, is known for being
shady doing the test, known for being shady. He put
a lot of information out there today that backs up

(01:19:45):
his claim. But you got a shady guy in a
shady business doing these tests when there's lots of money
to be made. Everyone's saying you can't trust his Victor
Kanti guy. I've heard his for years as a shady
character in the game. So that's reason number three. Reason

(01:20:05):
number four why I believe Ryan Garcia the dude clowned Vegas.
How many people lost money betting against this clown because
he rope a doped everybody into thinking that he lost
his mind, that he might not even make the fight,
that he wasn't training. He bet two million on himself,

(01:20:26):
won twelve million, making everybody, including everybody in Vegas, the
odds makers, everybody, the analyst, the fight game made everybody
look ridiculous. So he beat Vegas. That didn't rub anybody
the right way. People are out to get this kid.
Then I'm putting this all part of reason number four.
Then he's hanging out with Donald Trump shadow boxing.

Speaker 3 (01:20:52):
Choo choo choo. I love this kid. This kid's amazing,
the great Latino. He's a great Latino here. I love
this kid. Trump twenty twenty four.

Speaker 2 (01:21:04):
He's shadow boxing with Donald Trump, rubbing people the wrong way.
So again he rubbed Vegas the wrong way. Now he's
hanging out with Donald Trump. And then he went on
social media talking about exposing the elites. I got all
these secrets on the elites. I'm exposing everybody, exposing everybody.
You don't think that the powers that be, whoever that

(01:21:24):
may be.

Speaker 3 (01:21:25):
I don't know. I'm not that involved. I just watched
as a fan.

Speaker 2 (01:21:28):
You don't think that it's possible that they're trying to
bamboozle this dude and make it a no contest, take
his credibility away. You don't think they're trying to mess
with him a little bit. He's standing firm, he's standing
on his ground that he didn't cheat and he's not
worried about it, and that's why I think this is
all bs And how was again? This is where it

(01:21:49):
gets confusing. How is the steroid not detected sooner? You know,
I don't get that the fight already happened, and I
know it takes seventy two hours or something ridiculous, but
there's no testing leading up to that. It doesn't add upright.
The math isn't mathing. As Rich says, it doesn't make
sense to me. So you heard my side. Do you

(01:22:11):
believe him or not? It feels like a bit of
a witch hunt. They're trying to discredit the kid. He
made everybody look silly, and now as a result of
all this hain, he's saying he doesn't want to rematch.

Speaker 3 (01:22:24):
That's my side to the story. If we were in
a courtroom right now, I think you just won your case.
Well bam, really real? Yeah, yeah, everything you just said
about how big is? I like, there's just so many
things pointing in one direction. And by the way, everyone's
an osteen expert. All of a sudden, you don't know

(01:22:45):
what you're talking about here. He's so funny.

Speaker 2 (01:22:46):
Hell, like whatever the whatever the social issue is or
wherever the news break is, everyone all of a sudden
comes out of the woodworks like.

Speaker 3 (01:22:54):
They're the expert. He said, you are full of it.
You don't even know what Kendrick Lamar's talking about, your
big liar, I.

Speaker 1 (01:23:01):
Do, Austen, It's actually a selective androgen receptor modulater.

Speaker 5 (01:23:06):
Just up.

Speaker 3 (01:23:08):
You just looked at up. But here's what I do.

Speaker 2 (01:23:11):
It's a banned substance, shouts out Northridge. It's still a
banded substance. Now, could that be detected from taking other supplements?
I've heard that it could be. Again, I'm no expert
in this. I'm a fan. I'm a fan. I'm just
telling you what I know and what i've heard. Okay,
So again eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, I'd
love to hear your thoughts. And what makes it really
interesting is I think we do know that Ryan Garcia,

(01:23:33):
like him or not, is the face of boxing because
there is a huge fight this weekend between Canelo and Mungia,
and we're still talking about this kid and all the
drama surrounding him. And again, Devin Haney made an appearance
last night Live on ESPN saying that he could have
killed him in the saint right, and we need to
take it serious. Your thoughts, your final thoughts? Eight seven,

(01:23:54):
seven ninety nine on Fox, Who we got to nyg.

Speaker 3 (01:23:57):
At least go to Brett in Florida. He wants to
weigh in on the Canelo fight.

Speaker 2 (01:24:00):
You know what's funny about this? And speaking of weyans,
Canelo came in a little lighter than Mungia.

Speaker 3 (01:24:08):
What's up, buddy?

Speaker 5 (01:24:10):
Hey, what's up guys?

Speaker 11 (01:24:11):
Hope you all having a real grape Friday. Just to
hit a quick touch on the Garcia subject, that's all
I was just laughing about. Man, everybody's an expert on that,
but people can't even spell the word right.

Speaker 3 (01:24:23):
But dude, that's fun Like.

Speaker 2 (01:24:25):
Look, I'm nationwide right now on Fox Sports Radio, and
I know you expect certain hosts to come here with
this sense of authority and they know and they know everything.
I can't come here and be disingenuous and say I
know everything about ostering?

Speaker 3 (01:24:39):
Are you kidding me? Do you can you get at
the vitamin shoppy? Do they sell at GNC? I don't know, dude, and.

Speaker 2 (01:24:46):
Neither is Ryan Garcia. And I believe that when you
see his reaction to this, He's like, I don't even
know what that is. I never even heard of it.

Speaker 11 (01:24:55):
So right, yeah, like go out's big guy on the
corner if he's got me austerring, right.

Speaker 2 (01:25:00):
But everyone seems to be an expert, and that's just
like everyone's a big narcissistic know it all in today's world.

Speaker 3 (01:25:05):
I'm sick of it. So what are your thoughts on this?

Speaker 9 (01:25:07):
Man?

Speaker 11 (01:25:08):
And yeah, so I just wanted to see how you
were thinking, how you were feeling about that fight this weekend.
Like you said, big fight coming up. I know my
name Canelo. He's got them stone hands. I'm myself. I'm
looking probably Tko in the first ten.

Speaker 2 (01:25:23):
What do you think Tko Canelo? I'll tell you this, man,
I think Canelo's got this. He weighed in lighter than
Mungia one sixty six point eight. Mugia weighed in at
one sixty seven point four. Again, this is going to
be an undisputed super middleweight title fight. Freddie Roach is

(01:25:45):
saying that Mungia is going to shock the world this
weekend with a knockout, and I agree with you, man,
I think as much as I like Mugia and don't
sleep on them.

Speaker 3 (01:25:52):
It's gonna be a fun fight.

Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
Two Mexican warriors, a lot of pride on the line,
a lot of a lot of heart, a lot of
my Cheesemo in the ring this weekend. I think you're
gonna see a battle, but you're gonna see Canelo just
be Canelo and he gets Yeah, he's he's gonna get
the knockout. I think he wins. I agree with you, man,
So I love a great fight. I love a nice heiney.

(01:26:17):
I love a nice tequila, nice tequila shot and a feida.
In fact, manzi know where I'm going after this?

Speaker 3 (01:26:23):
Not Tequila because they closed it on us. But there's
another one where another one there is I'm going, Oh,
the one in Hollywood.

Speaker 2 (01:26:30):
Yeah, but don't tell everybody, because I don't want to
see some mutant there. I'm taking my daughter. I don't
want to be bothered by some weird Oh hey, excuse me,
are you Cavino? Do you have any swiggies?

Speaker 3 (01:26:39):
Please? Nobody knows who you are, Nobody listens to your podcast.
That is true. That is true. Hey you got any swiggy?

Speaker 5 (01:26:47):
Let me know how.

Speaker 3 (01:26:48):
I went around the area once and I was like, oh,
I should try, and I didn't.

Speaker 5 (01:26:53):
Let me know how it is.

Speaker 3 (01:26:54):

Pewee Herman dance. Everybody shut in there with the shoes,
by the way, my dad had those shoes, the high
right shoes. I got a trivia question for you guys
before we get into some fun sigle to mile trivia tequila.
Where does Pewee Herman in this legendary classic get the

(01:27:46):
shoes from? Does anybody remember from one of the bikers. No,
he's trying to again, he's trying to win over the bikers,
right because they're gonna kill him. So he has one
last request, and it's to do this dance. And he
asks the custodian, the janitor, the guy mopping up the
bus boy, I guess the guy mopping up the bar

(01:28:06):
if he could borrow his shoes and then he does
the dance. I have that story anyway, It's Covino, Steve
albre Mas, Wappo Roland Solo Covino.
