Speaker 1 (00:00):
Another amazing week with you and Covino and Rich enjoy
the best of the best of the best of the week.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
I'll give you just a quick one, a fumble recovery,
if you will. Yeah, NFL, remember back in the mid nineties,
the NFL is expanding. A lot of people are scratching
their head how Jacksonville ended up getting a team, because
at that point it seemed there were other markets, specifically
Baltimore was a team and Saint Louis at the time.
Now we saw the Rams end up moving to Saint Louis.

(00:29):
Baltimore obviously gets the Ravens. But because those two groups
couldn't get their stuff in order, Jacksonville was ready. There's
no way the NFL puts a team in Jacksonville nowadays,
like it just doesn't.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
There's absolutely no way.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
But because maybe Baltimore and Saint Louis didn't have everything
that they needed, Jacksonville took the opportunity and here they
are thirty years later.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
Dude, that really is the moral of everything we're getting
at right now. It's when opportunity knocks, you have to
be ready to answer. That's really what it comes down to.
Skype was not ready for that opportunity even though they
had everything or seem like they had everything lined up.
I have arguably the best example I'll give you next,
and it has to do with sports. I watch a
great documentary and there's it just shows you everything in sports,

(01:12):
in life. It's a matter of opportunity and really seizing
that moment. We'll get to it next, Sinko Demaya, we'll
get to it next. Singo may come on to try
to hear on Fox Sports Radio. There was one that
real quick twenty seconds. We have a buddy, Danny g.
This is a true story. Our buddy Sean in New
York was pulled into some seminar in the two thousands.

(01:35):
He's the type of guy that listens to street people
like handing out flyers.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Was it to sell cut co knives?

Speaker 5 (01:40):
No?

Speaker 4 (01:40):
No, some guys like come in here, let me tell
you all about bitcoin. And our buddy Sean, I asked
you not. Was told like, hey, to get started, we'll
give you like fifty bitcoin for like ten bucks, and
he was like, it's just not interested. And he looks
back he remembers clearly just saying there's so many it is.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
He's going to be telling that story to his grandchildren
stock opportunity.

Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (02:05):
They were like, dude, we'll give you fifty to start
for ten bucks and you can help mine it. He's like,
what does mining mean? Like, so we have a buddy
that would have been like one of those crypto billionaires.
True story. Everybody has their own. So let's get to
these callers. This is your chance to go home a
champion on the Cinco. To MYO, all you have to
do is do your best Greto, that's it. Now, what's

(02:25):

a party shout. You hear it at all the fiestas.
And Sam, you won last year with your legendary grito.
That just sounds like a crazy person. Honestly, I lost
my voice from screaming at the disappointing boxing matches this
weekend that I can't even do on Rich, I know

(02:47):

San Diego, Alex. Here on, what's up Alex?

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Hey Alex? Alex had excuses. I think, what's up Alex?
He said he had a sore throat. I'm like, why'd

Speaker 7 (04:12):
All right.

Speaker 4 (04:18):
I'm just picturing this guy, you know, in his car
or whatever and his driveway doing that.

Speaker 3 (04:22):
Hell yeah, you win.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
What I'm picturing is when these president show up, guys
telling their wives how they want it.

Speaker 3 (04:29):
I'm sorry, how did you win this? You can win?
To you ever hear like a grito?

Speaker 4 (04:33):
It's like it's like a cry, like in a love song,
and it's almost like a yelp.

Speaker 3 (04:37):
It's like a heartbreak sort of. I'll take one of those.

Speaker 5 (04:40):
Kansas City's a winter hang on, Tony.

Speaker 3 (04:42):

Hey, Bob, I got a You missing out on a

Speaker 3 (05:04):
It's okay. Can you give us your best crito.

Speaker 4 (05:09):

Speaker 6 (05:09):

Speaker 3 (05:14):
That's your best tall.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
You know what, the rest of you, I'm sorry. Enjoy
your guacamali, Enjoy your margerite?

Speaker 8 (05:23):
Is that?

Speaker 3 (05:23):
Enjoy some great NBA playoffs tonight.

Speaker 4 (05:25):
I can't wait the happyes to go to my own
covering for somebody in a big moment. Do you have
a story of your own? I'd love to hear about it.
Did you Wally Pip? The person I want to hear?

Speaker 3 (05:42):
I want to know the story, did you drew Bledsoe
the moment?

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Did you step up and Tom Brady the moment? Would
it be a Tom Brady, No, it would be drew Bledsoe. Well,
here's the thing. If they always called it a wally Pip,
wouldn't it be drew bleds.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
And it would be a drew Bledsoe.

Speaker 4 (05:58):
So the times you had to cover for somebody in
a big moment because these are frantic situations, but could
read the fine who you are and could be a
big moment for you depending on the story in the
moment right. Most recently Dennis Scott because the technical difficulties,

(06:19):
had to cover for Spirodd's and Candice Parker. So they
were having and he's what like a color commentator, he's
usually down sideline, dude, and they were having technical difficulties,
so he had to do the play by play and
step up. And by the way, you may think, oh,
he's a broadcaster and he's he's polished former player, but

(06:42):
I'll tell you what, these are separate skills.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Guys.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
It's like it's like asking an outfielder to play second base,
you know what I mean, Like it's just not something
that you do. Rich and I are on the air
every day just for fun. One time we try to
do baseball play by play and we could pretend all
day and we watched baseball. It's not He's not easy
to do that. If that's not your skill. It's like
us trying to do what Dan Bayer does as an anchor.

(07:06):
You know that's not something that we do. It's a
different skill set.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
He had to start, he had to start reading off
the teleprompter, and then he jumped into the play by play.

Speaker 4 (07:13):
Dude, that's scary, especially when you're not used to that,
and we've seen so many moments right when Dan's job.
I'd shut it every time by going it's update done.

Speaker 3 (07:24):
I'd have a whole gimmick. The start is the easy fire.
At the you gotta time that out. I feel like
at the end Rich would go.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
Whoa, I'd go that music would make me when Dan
Byer goes, I'm Dan Bayer dun dun dun dun like,
and that hits perfectly. That's a skill, right, It is
not even skills. So you may think to yourself, like
a big deal. He had to do the play by play.
He's a basketball guy. If that's not what you do,
and if you've never done it on a big stage
like that, you know, that's like you again, play in

(07:53):
a position or doing something you've never done before. The
like oh man, So Dennis Scott stepped up for Spiro
Duty's candas Park Detective. He's in an NBA playoff game.
Big moment. Just this weekend, Kentucky derby Mike Turrico apparently
had a penut allergy.

Speaker 5 (08:12):
Yeah, bad reaction to it.

Speaker 4 (08:14):
And I don't know that could be severe. I don't
know how bad it was. But because of that, Ahmed
Fared had a step in.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Yeah, so Tiko tweeted that he was okay, he lived
through it, but he said he was grateful to the
broadcast team for stepping up for him.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
So think about that.

Speaker 4 (08:33):
You know, these are great opportunities, unfortunate for them, but
opportunities are knocking for these other people. And I think
everybody has a moment, or could think of a sports
moment maybe where hey, that guy wasn't ready, but he
had to get in there and do his thing and
he had to step up, and you know what, it
was a big moment for that guy. My career have
a stupid, stupid story, but It gave me the chops

(08:56):
and understanding of Okay, well, I guess I could do this.
This big festival concert that Kay Rock New York is
broadcasting from This sounds stupid now, but back then it
was a big deal. Booker who's an iHeartRadio host Chris
Booker was supposed to interview Collective Soul.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
So this is like the late nineteen.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
Hundreds, right, but again, Collective Soul not the biggest man
in the world.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
But after Shine, Shine is a good song. Love that song?
Are you kidding me? The world? I know? Make you cry?

Speaker 4 (09:25):
Right?

Speaker 3 (09:26):
December hit me up with some collective song?

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Ay?

Speaker 3 (09:30):
My contagious has it? The guy? Yeah?

Speaker 4 (09:33):
Right, So they had a bunch of hits heavy let's
gel so but Shine is a good one. And for
whatever reason, Chris Booker is stuck in traffic. I'm like,
oh man, that was the only idiot there first to
be their last to leave when you're coming up, right,
that's just the role you played.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
I'm hanging up banners, not the only guy there.

Speaker 4 (09:56):
Bull was like, yeah, this is your time, stay. You
got to interview collect the Soul. I mean again, looking back,
it's Collective Soul. Whatever we've done this a million times.
But when I'm a young kid and I'm buying their CDs,
They're the biggest thing in the world to me, right,
it's the world I.

Speaker 3 (10:10):
Know, and I'm like, oh man, I remember.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Just being so nervous, but I had to do it,
and I had to step up and fill in for
Booker and it was just on those recording It wasn't
a live broadcast, but I had to step up with
the Moran system, as Danny g probably remembers. You remember
those like handheld recording devices, and you had to be
so careful and certain that you were recording it and
the levels were right, and just pray that it came
out okay. And I'm recording and I did that interview

(10:34):
with Collective Soul, and I was just like barely twenty
man if that. And I just remember at the time
I had to step up because he was late or
didn't show up or was sick or whatever the case was.
And for me at the time, it showed that I'll
step up if needed, and I can handle these things.
I mean, I sucked, but I still did it and
it showed me that, yeah, man, maybe I can do

(10:55):
this in the future.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
Who knows.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
And that's happened twice in the broadcasting world in the
last week. So just in the last week, just coincidentally,
you know those times you covered and you know, maybe
got an opportunity. I have an example for like every
part of life, it happened to me in sports too.
I got more stock. I have a sports example because
he's a cy Young Award winner, a guy that we
think of as one of the most dominant pictures of

(11:18):
our generation. Jacob de Gram got called up as a
spot starter. He was a minor league shortstop who was
transitioning to pitcher. Yeah, and you think about if de
Gram has a bad start, what do they do. Yeah,
we go back to the miners and see what happens.

(11:40):
Jacob de Gram took that and ran with it and
became a generational pitcher. Oh yeah, again, that's stepping up
in the moment, you know, taking that moment, And that's
what we're talking about, the times you had to cover
for somebody.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
How about this one, it could have been a nightmare.

Speaker 4 (11:54):
Let's let's go back roughly, you know, forty to fifty
years LA Lakers Jack McKinney gets in a bicycle crash.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
We saw it on winning time.

Speaker 4 (12:07):
Yeah, pat Riley was you know, a young hungry assistant
that gave pat Riley his way in the door and
never looked back. In fact, the team was then given
to him. Do you have a personal story, Rich, I do,
but it's a really corny one, though I want to
hear it. That's I mean, near the corniest guy. Now's

(12:27):
i'n brand as far as I'm concerned. Let's hear it,
all right, Well, it's a really corny example, guess for real,
like a like corny like it makes sense because it
reminded me that I don't really I don't get scared
at broadcasts or anything like that.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
I don't think like.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
My collective soul story was the coolest we compared to
this story.

Speaker 3 (12:48):
I can't wait. Let's hear it. So I was in
a school play my senior year. Why are you laughing
at the start of the story.

Speaker 4 (12:55):
Because he's probably like the fill in for little Orphananny.
That's when Rich say tomorrow and everybody cried. They gave
him a standing up and the rest is history.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
Now, the night of the performance the hard knock life
for me.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
So it's a corny play too, anything goes okay, I
was in the Broadway show Anything Goes as a senior
in high school and the girl that was the opposite
lead of me, I was the lead guy.

Speaker 3 (13:27):
She was the you know, the the actress.

Speaker 4 (13:30):
She had like a laryngitis anxiety attack combination where the
concert we had a duet and as corny as is,
like I would sing a line, she would sing a line.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
I would sing a line, she would sing a line.

Speaker 4 (13:41):
And that was like the that was like the main
song in Anything Goes.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
She gives me a look like my.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
Voice is gone, so right there on the song, instinctively
I look down and you know, like the pit conductor
for the band looks up at me and just points
at me. And for the rest of the song, I
sang my part and her part and made it seem
like it was just my song. And at that moment,
I'm like, I think I could be a professional broadcaster.

Speaker 3 (14:09):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
And then for the following show, for the encore later on,
Rich painted one side like a woman and he would
just flip side and again he won a high school
acting award. Wow, dude, that's a pretty cool story though,
because that happened like live in the moment, She's like,
I can't sing.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
She tried to get the first line that is, yeah,
that's a matter of nerves.

Speaker 4 (14:33):
And yeah, And I was just like all right, and
I just started singing her words. None of us here
play pick up basketball like we're Jason McIntyre from the Herd.
None of us are Coach Gottlieb that have, you know,
constantly on the court with their their team. If I
gave you a hundred free throws, yeah, but I played.
If I gave you a hundred free throws and you

(14:55):
put money on the line, like money on the line,
what would you guess would be your percentage out of
one hundred shots free throw?

Speaker 3 (15:05):
Bike goes.

Speaker 5 (15:06):
Do we get any practice or warm up? Or is
this coming off the bench?

Speaker 4 (15:09):
You could warm up If I said, Danny, you can
warm up right now, we start at four o'clock Pacific yard,
like twenty minutes of warm up. You can shoot around, dribble,
get some water, whatever you need to do. But I said,
in twenty minutes right now, I'm going to give you
one hundred free throws. You could take a couple of breaks.
They don't need to be all in a row. Give
an hour, take a hundred free throws.

Speaker 1 (15:27):
How many are you hitting. I would do it for fun,
but how many things you're getting? I would say we'd
be lucky to get forty out of the hundred.

Speaker 5 (15:35):
Danny's correct.

Speaker 4 (15:36):
I'm thinking over sixty because once you get in rhythm,
once you find.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Out real rhythm is gonna get I think in our
heads we think we could get sixty, but realistically forty.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Really I don't remember when in the season it was,
but I distinctly remember at one point in high school
I saw my stats and I was a fifty seven
percent free throw shoo oh really yeah, I and I
felt I was but it was good. W Yeah, Like no,
I didn't think I was good. I was just appalled
at how bad that it was. I'm like, wow, I'm
that only fifty seven percent?

Speaker 3 (16:07):
Yeah, I you know, dB.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
I was going to say, I would be very impressed myself,
and I consider myself a pretty athletic, active guy, right,
I would say I'd be impressed if I could hit
fifty percent, because Steve Nash ninety percent.

Speaker 3 (16:20):
That is pretty sweet.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
I think you're It's like one of those things where
the average idy of things they could do more than
they can athletically, which is why they have shows like
remember Pros Versus Joe's Petros was the host of that.

Speaker 3 (16:32):
I don't know. It's a good question.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
In fact, I feel like, if we're bored one day,
why don't we take the physical challenge? Go across the
street twenty four hour fitness shoot some out of one hundred.
I would do it for the fun of it, just
to answer the question, let's.

Speaker 3 (16:46):
Let's take the physical challenge? Who would come in last place?

Speaker 4 (16:50):
VJ Husky Spot VJ Husky would come in last place?

Speaker 3 (16:56):
You'd like, Ah, my muscles are hurting. AH told you.
I told you. I told you my muscles hurt. You
would get tired. The only reason I lost because my
muscles are too big. I think Vj's hooper. Guys just
hat Vj's.

Speaker 9 (17:08):
Hooping way more often than we think. I think I'd
probably be the one who'd end up in.

Speaker 4 (17:12):
Last Really, yeah, come on, Sam, you tell Let's do
it one day. Speaking of preset Fox Sports Radio, one
of the other shows we're very friendly with, great guys,
Kelvin and Rob Parker love the odd couple. Great guys.
I want to settle a debate. I'm sure they may
tell you about this on their show. At some point,
Kelvin put on Instagram story settle a debate do adults

(17:36):
eat cereal with milk on a daily basis? How often?
And the options were yes all the time, some days rarely?
Or what am I a kid? I saw this rarely
for me? However, I'm a former serial killer when I
was a kid.

Speaker 3 (17:49):
That's all I ate.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
Don't tell my mom that though, she's offended. So there's
a couple questions here. Number one, what are the foods
that were out of your life for decades? Then you
have kids and it reenters because that cereal for me,
like I probably went twenty years of my life probably
from twenty to forty without cereal, and then now your
kids are in the mixes come back? Yeah, Like fruit
roll ups are in my pantry. You're eating gushers again.

Speaker 3 (18:12):
Yeah, So I'm gonna go.

Speaker 4 (18:14):
I'll rare on occasion, maybe a late night edible or
I fro I'm just got the munchies or something. I'll
pour a ball of cereal if you had to give
me your go to cereal, like my one to live on.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
I'm easy.

Speaker 4 (18:27):
I'm so torn because my debate, my inner debate, is
fruity pebbles or cinnamon toa's crunch and I can't decide,
but hold on, here's my question. Is it without any repercussion?
Like I could just eat them for those of my
life and no calories, Like it's like when you go
It's like when you go to if I had to
stay healthy out to pick the lame choice? When I
when I, when I, when my wife and I are
like a bakery, I always say, look in the bakery thing.

(18:49):
If calories didn't matter, what would you house right now?
So it's the easiest question again, formercy, I'm like the
dexter of cereal.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
I house this. I'm a serial killer.

Speaker 4 (18:58):
My answer is Coco pell bowls number one all day,
eat it by the box because it always came in
as like slightly smaller box. I would eat him at
a box a sitting so you can because you get
that chocolate delicious milk at the end.

Speaker 3 (19:11):
Coco pebbles my answer number one on the board.

Speaker 4 (19:14):
I mean I would I would argue that cocoa and
fruity pebbles are equally good. See but to me they
taste like tricks a little bit. Fruity pebbles. I don't
not like fruity pebbles, But Coco pebbles is my answer.
I'd say Cocoa puffs is right up there. You're the
puff kind of guy.

Speaker 5 (19:28):
Huh.

Speaker 4 (19:29):
For Coco puffs, I would say, what's your go to
sugary terrible for your cereal.

Speaker 9 (19:33):
This is gonna sound lame, but my favorite cereal is
rice checks, which is like people make checks mix rice
checks with like two percent milk. To me is just
something satisfying. We used to put spoonfuls of sugar on
top of.

Speaker 4 (19:44):
That cereal when in my family, Cheerios or rice crispies
like plain seer cinnamon like honey nuts.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
My family we ate bootios.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Brood frosted flakes was a go to too when we
were kids.

Speaker 4 (19:59):
But I mean, I feel like I'm the only one
that even brought up cinnamon toa'st crunch?

Speaker 3 (20:02):
Is this not you know? Crunch is good?

Speaker 5 (20:03):
Yeah, we have that in our pantry right now.

Speaker 3 (20:06):
Cinnamon toes. It's gonna be calling Danny's name late tonight.
You know, I eat the healthy granola cereal. I'll tell
you what.

Speaker 9 (20:13):
My favorite sugar is a special K with the chocolate
and strawberries special. It's like a divorced mom's favorite cereal.

Speaker 3 (20:21):
That's it. That is a good one, like that one.

Speaker 4 (20:24):
But yeah, my answer Coco pebbles. What's your answer?

Speaker 3 (20:27):
And why? Because they post this Calvin post. Yes, I
say cereal for an adult like once a week.

Speaker 4 (20:32):
My dude, Calvin K dub live on Instagram. Vote for yourself.
Are good friends at the odd Couple who are on
Fox Sports Radio right after us. But I'm gonna go
some days, I'm gonna vote some days remember that variety pack.

Speaker 3 (20:45):
Yeah, some days. Because you have little rug reds.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
And Rob Parker loves to save money, I think that
he would probably get corn flakes and put his own
sugar on.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
The top of Parker Jacks.

Speaker 4 (20:54):
Wait, is Rob the type of guy that buys the
store brand like I like taste the O's, not Cheerio's,
Tasty O taste Os. You've always been the type of
guy that says, find theer's keepers losers, weepers. And I've
always said that if I caught a home run or
even a foul ball, I'm not giving it to the

(21:15):
kid next to me. You know why, because I've waited
my whole life for that moment. So I'm gonna keep it,
give it to my own kid, even if my kid's
not with me, I'm gonna give it to somebody, my nephew,
or keep it, depending on what it is.

Speaker 3 (21:27):
This is baseball. If it's an O Tani or Judge
home run.

Speaker 4 (21:30):
This one judge home run, right, And he's having a
magical season, MVP already putting up crazy numbers. He's batting
four hundred, hitting bombs. And as a guy that says,
you know, I would keep it and not give it
to a kid, I'm not saying I would take it
from a kid. I would have to say in this moment,

(21:50):
if someone dropped this ball that they caught, you would
have to automatically give it back to them. Now, this
guy played it off like, yeah, I don't know what
you're talking about. It happened also quickly, but John Boy
broke it down and went viral on social media. Everybody
was talking about it. It does pose the question of
what would you do? And I will tell you that

(22:12):
the guy that ended up retrieving the ball, the guy
right next to the kids, he gave it back as
of today, but I really do believe he did it.

Speaker 3 (22:21):
Because of social media pressure.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
Everybody zoomed in on it and saw that the guy
caught it because MLB even acknowledged it, and they wrote
finders keepers. I do wonder your thoughts on the whole
finders keepers, losers weepers?

Speaker 3 (22:34):
Was that your Yankees thought or question? It was? Actually okay?
You know our dumb brains are on the same page. Nice.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
Well, that was one of the bigger stories last night.
But I think when you think about that phrase finders keepers,
losers weepers, it brings up another story that I saw
in the news, and it does go back to well,
if you find it, is it yours? In fact, there's
two other stories. Did you see that Brinch truck in Chicago?
They forgot the latched the back of it. Three hundred

(23:02):
thousand dollars was just blowing around the neighborhood.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
That's crazy. If you pick up a stack, Danny g
are you giving it back?

Speaker 1 (23:11):
It's like those dumb machines radio stations used to have
at remotes, Yeah, where they contestants go in and try
to grab as much cash blowing around as they could.

Speaker 4 (23:20):
Because there's a few stories that has to do with
finders keepers, losers weepers. One the Aaron Judge home run ball,
famit snags it just dribbles out of his glove and
the guy next so sneaks sneakily gets it. Second story,
if a bank truck doesn't latch the door and hundreds
of thousands of dollars are just out there, are you

(23:41):
giving it back? I would try to keep that unless
it was traceable, because I'm like, whoa.

Speaker 5 (23:47):
Yeah, they couldn't trace the cereal.

Speaker 4 (23:48):
Well, then in that case, you're doing the right thing
by giving it back.

Speaker 3 (23:54):
If they can find out it to me, then I
gotta do the right thing.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Yeah, I mean it feels it feels like a really
nice purchase with cash real quick, like, oh, let me
buy a car cash?

Speaker 3 (24:05):
He go by.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
If they could trace it back, like who's the JABBRONI
that you know paid with this money?

Speaker 3 (24:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (24:10):
I would feel too risky to keep that one. I
would want to keep it. And then there's another story.
It was like a local story. Some old guy, some
old guy who needed money, he was broke, already looked
like a broke Santa Claus.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
Some older dude goes to a.

Speaker 4 (24:26):
Thrift shore, a thrift shot like a good will, and
he buys a couch like an old couch you see
in your grandparents' basement.

Speaker 3 (24:34):
It was orange and brown.

Speaker 4 (24:35):
You know that rangy brown couch that everybody had in
the eighties with the wagon wheels on it and flowers
and his orange and brown. This guy bought a couch
and he's sitting on it, and he's like kind of uncomfortable,
and he opens the cushion on the ottoman and inside
the cushion was forty three thousand dollars and he couldn't
believe it. One would think that, oh my god, good

(24:58):
karma's finally coming back to me. The gods have spoken,
today's my lucky day. But this guy felt an immense
level of guilter or something, because he then reached back
to Goodwill to see, well, who donated this couch and
returned every penny He returned every penny that just happened.

Speaker 3 (25:19):
They better have given him a big reward.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
Dude, I said, give him twenty percent, give him eight thousand.
And the guy even said he needed it, but he
felt better returning it to its rightful owner. Apparently, like
the person's grandfather stuffed that couch at forty three thousand
dollars and nobody knew about it, so he had no
legal obligation to return that money. But that's another current
story that just went viral this week. So what would

(25:44):
you do? And do you believe in finders keepers? I
think Dannyg's wife, Brenda would divorce him if he gave
them money. But I'll tell you what in that case,
I'm keeping that money. Absolutely, I think I'm keeping that money.
You buy a couch, you feel like, whoa, why is
that not your destiny?

Speaker 10 (25:58):
Man?

Speaker 3 (25:58):
I guess that's whoa Grandpa.

Speaker 9 (26:00):
He probably put the money in there, he had, you know, dementia,
forgot about it. It's your money at that point, it's
been so long that the serial numbers are no longer traced.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Well, that's your cash.

Speaker 4 (26:10):
And by the way, it's different the grandkids or whoever
ended up getting that money back, the kids of that guy,
they had no idea that this money ever existed. They
didn't know where it came from. But this guy who
bought that couch from the thrift shop said he felt
like it was the right thing to do. And I guess,
you know, from a moral standpoint, maybe it is.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
You will get him.

Speaker 4 (26:29):
From a moral standpoint in each case, is therefore me
ask you from a moral standpoint, You see, this happens
every year. There's at least one of these stories. Someone's
that an estate sale or yard sale and they find
a painting and they're like, yeah, ten bucks and they
don't realize it's like a million dollar painting or yeah.
To me, it's very similar. That's an old box of

(26:50):
nineteen fifties baseball cards. Yeah, twenty bucks. That happens on
pawn Stars every once in a while. Rick X like
he's some righteous dude where some guy wants like, you know,
I took fifty bucks for it, but Rick knows it's
worth you know, a few thousand, And because he's on TV,
he's like, I'll tell you what, man, it's worth a
little more than now. I have my guy come in
and appraise and and because he doesn't want to rip

(27:12):
him off on TV. That's really what it comes down to.
But it's sort of that same thing. What would you
do in these situations? A seven seven ninety nine on
Fox the baseball dude, I would have gave it back.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
I'm happy to hear today that he did.

Speaker 4 (27:25):
I do feel that he felt the social pressure to
do so, though, because it looked like on TV that
he had no intention of giving that ball back. He
was trying to play it off. Too many people saw
it the couch money. If I bought furniture or bought
anything from a garagea like you said, rich and ended
up being valuable to me, that's just man, that's just
look on your side for once. Dang, your prayers were answered.

(27:48):
You could pay off your debt, you know what I mean,
whatever the case is, like, oh my god, that's my
kid's college money. To me, that that's when you keep it.

Speaker 1 (27:55):
What if something was accidentally stored inside your purchase like
last year, Oh no, this lady who flipped home, she
bought a dresser and it was taped up from moving,
and the person she bought it from they didn't they
didn't remember that they had packed the family's china inside
the dresser and then tape the dresser up. So she
gets this dresser home that she bought online from. The

(28:17):
person opens it up and there's this expensive china, all
these dishes in china inside the dresser, and she got
a hold of the person she bought it from, and
she returned the family place.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
I said, case by case, china to me means Didley squad.

Speaker 3 (28:37):
She could have sold it. That's worth a lot of money.

Speaker 4 (28:38):
I get all that, but that to me seems like
a family heirloom of sorts that I wouldn't give a
didley squat about, kind of like people's family pictures.

Speaker 5 (28:46):
Almost.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Yeah, like you know what, this is probably meant for you, guys,
and it was probably passed down the cash money that's
universally good for everybody.

Speaker 9 (28:55):
Well, how much was is a random home run ball worth?
It's probably not worth really anything, so he should give
it back.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
It's mental and he did as of today. But man,
what a funny clip, guys. You gotta see if you
haven't seen it, the quickness of the guy next to him,
because again it squibbled.

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Would squibble be the word?

Speaker 4 (29:13):
Yeah, squibbled it along the top of the wall, and
some other guy snagged it.

Speaker 3 (29:19):
Kind of wild to see. What would you think? You say, yoink?
He yanked it? He yoinked. Itty know, when I bought my.

Speaker 4 (29:26):
House, the same family had lived there forever, like since
it was built. So when we're going through the attic
with our contractor, I did find stuff that I put aside.
I'm like, let me call the og owner if I
can and be like, hey, do you want like your
kid's high school yearbooks from the seventies and eighties. I
thought I was doing a good deed, and like now
you throw it out. So sometimes people just don't want

(29:50):
that crap when you think they might trash and treasure
all that stuff. But yeah, money, man, give meny three
thousand dollars. There's a lot to give up if you
found it. Give me the ruling on not forty three
grand in a couch or in a vase or something.
I feel like it's also the plot line of like
a comedy where you take the cash, you fig it's yours,
and then you gotta knock on the door. It's like
the mo Like it's like some uh some mobsters, Like, yeah,

(30:11):
you got on money.

Speaker 3 (30:13):
You bought that couch. You were not supposed to buy that,
and you already spent the money. Yeah.

Speaker 9 (30:17):
Have you guys ever seen the movie A Simple Plan
with Bill Paxton and Billy Bob Thornton. First of all,
I watch He Loves the Band. A Simple Plan is
an excellent movie. It's about these two friends who find
this plane crash in the woods in like Maine. They
find like two hundred thousand dollars in cash in a bag,
and it's not the people coming after him. It's what
happens between the two friends and how they try to

(30:39):
divvy up the money and all kinds of chaos and suits.
It's a fantastic movie.

Speaker 4 (30:42):
But Sam, if you found money, wouldn't that be like
a modern day version of like you found the treasure,
you found the hidden treasure.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
That's your treasure, One eyed Willy's treasure found Devel Dorado,
the Bizarre Wisch. This is my wish. This is my treasure.

Speaker 4 (30:56):
I think that's way different than the ball, way different
than anything else. That's my money. I try to be
a good person. I want to do the right thing,
as Spike Lee said, But in this case, I'm keeping
that treasure I found it.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
If you felt guilty, couldn't you just replace the money
with a whole bunch of io us?

Speaker 4 (31:12):
Yeah, just as good as mony. This is good, all right?
So all right, break it down this way. You walk
it down the street. Yeah, you see a twenty dollars
bill on the floor. Do you immediately pick it up
quickly and put in your pocket or do you look
around like hey, it's like, do you look at the vicinity,
like maybe that lady dropped it, Like how quick are
you to just put in your own pick it up?
And you do the you know, over each shoulders, So anyone, Yeah.

Speaker 5 (31:36):
First you make sure it's not on a string so
you don't get punked.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Yeah, yeah, there or something right now, you gotta look
over each shoulder.

Speaker 4 (31:46):
I do wonder to what extent would you say finders, keepers, losers,
weepers when it comes to I mean anything for that matter.
Are you if you're in a hotel room and the
previous person left something there, you're not take it?

Speaker 3 (32:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (32:00):
People do, because the reality is people take things all
the time. We're giving ourselves a lot of credit and
we shouldn't. We're just being reasonably good people. How many
times have you left something in a hotel room? Called
back ten minutes later? They're like, yeah, can't fight it
all the time. That's like something stupid charger charge. I
left my laptop charger Ye really, because I left an
hour ago, someone took it.

Speaker 3 (32:21):
You know, I left. I left a leather jacket of
the close at a hotel. That's my point.

Speaker 4 (32:26):
That's caramel work in your to your advantage. So how
many times that happened to you in your life, right,
and you're like, man, I just can never do nothing.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
Now you walk in and you have this prize there,
Why are you gonna give it back?

Speaker 4 (32:40):
This is this is how life makes things even for you. Man,
that's my money.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
My mom.

Speaker 4 (32:46):
My mom recently found a gift card laying in a
parking lot and just for the heck of it, she
picked it up and went into that store and it
had like eighty bucks on it. And I was like,
I was like, I don't think that's a I think
that's a fine. Just keepers because what do you do you? Hey,
did anyone drop a gift card? Is that why your
mom's wearing work boots from work boot Warehouse.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
I didn't tell you where have the gift car? All right?

Speaker 4 (33:11):
So your thoughts At eight, seven, seven, nine nine on Fox.
Really funny story out of Yankee Stadium last night. Yankee
fan gotta see the video catches the home run efect.
We'll put it on our Instagram story. At Covine on
Rich guy catches the ball in celebration, squibbles out of
his glove the guy next to him in the slickest
way possible. I will say, I'm real grabs it, puts
in his pocket and again, hold on, you don't see

(33:33):
it in real time. That's the thing. Because I saw
this in real time and didn't notice. I thought, man,
what a great catch. You didn't see it until they
slowed it down an instant replay. So what are the
rules of finders keepers, losers weepers. We'll get to that,
Plus we'll talk some NBA and Tom Brady has finally
talked about Shador Sanders. We're wrapping up our John Kenyonis

(33:56):
segment of the Day with what.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Would you Do?

Speaker 4 (34:00):
It's a tough one because I think it's so Finder's keepers,
losers weepers is a great phrase for our childhood. But
I got one for you. I got a scenario when
I was a kid. We all experienced. I think this
is a relatable one. I think we've all experienced this.
We got into baseball cards. For me, it was around
eighty six, right, and I got way into it. Oh,

(34:22):
I was a year later, by eighty seven hours, I
was neck deep into those wooden I was gonna say one.
I was an eighty seven kid. Border my basement paneling
matched the baseball cards. Yeah, those eighty seven tops with
the wood border, so I got way into it. Any
adult that would listen to me, I would tell him
about my baseball cards. And I found out through a

(34:44):
family member that Uncle Victor and Uncle Angel used to
collect cards all the time.

Speaker 3 (34:50):
I'm like they did.

Speaker 4 (34:52):
Yeah, they're probably uh in the basement in an old
house that my grandma still owned but she rented out.
Probably in there somewhere. Dude, thirty forty years must have
gone by. Fifty years must have gone by since anyone
ever cared.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
So I was a little.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
Kid that took it upon myself to go rummaging to
try to find them. Even though my uncle Victor and
Angel had their own kids and maybe they rightfully belonged
to them.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
They didn't care about it. And I'm the one going into.

Speaker 4 (35:21):
Another town in the basement of another home to try
to find these in old cigar boxes, in old storage
boxes and bins. They're not finders keepers mind maps. I'm
the only kid that cared. Is that the same day
you found one eyed William's map, It's the same day
I found the treasure. But dude, I can't tell you
how many sixty three mantles. I'm trying to think sixty
four Maris Mantles Clementes that I got because I was

(35:45):
the only kid willing to look for him. I mean,
you can't stop. I was supposed to find him and
give them back to my uncle. They didn't care about him.
Didn't tell anyone though, did you.

Speaker 5 (35:52):
Hell?

Speaker 3 (35:52):
Yeah, everybody told your cousins. They were too little care.

Speaker 4 (35:56):
I was the only only when I wanted them. I
hope they're not listening to now, because they're gonna. I
had a cash in on it. They come knocking forty
years later. But that's not finders keepers. I think finders
keepers losers weepers is a case by case thing. You know,
you do have a moral obligation sometimes if you have
a conscience that also applies. Dan Byer was so right

(36:17):
that Popo Leo announcement today was so action back. It
was like a major event. It had I said, the
analogy and I'm not at shops man. It had like
I don't know, there was great entertainment value. Of course,
we understand the real life importance and significance of the

(36:38):
Catholic Church and what it means to people. I get
that right, but there was like as far as entertainment value,
it was really it had an NFL draft vibe because
it was red zone. Honest to God, Danny and we
respectfully joked about this on our Patreon Early Today Live.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
The only thing that was missing was like a ring entry.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
It's like a song, like we were saying, James Lennon
came out, I am a real American or something like
that could have been really cool. Well, I said, imagine,
because everyone was waiting, I said, what if all of
a sudden you heard like the stone cold Steve Austin
glass break.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
It's just me.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
It makes a little bit of theatrics, but otherwise that
was great. He's from Chicago, Alan Parsons bull steam like
doom Doom, Doom?

Speaker 3 (37:21):
Did you do?

Speaker 6 (37:22):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (37:22):
I know, dude.

Speaker 4 (37:23):
So that's the only Maybe some cooler uh graphics packages
maybe to make it look cool. But imagine, rich, just imagine,
just picture this Vatican city this morning.

Speaker 3 (37:38):
And now it's time for your new pop.

Speaker 11 (37:47):
He's from Chicago, Pope saying.

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Wait, where's his height? And wait?

Speaker 4 (38:01):
In school from Villanova. He loves deep dish pizza.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
And probably will invite Michael Jordan into the Vatican.

Speaker 4 (38:11):
Yeah, he was wearing air Jordan's sot of people don't
know that he wasn't wearing your traditional slipper. He was
wearing air Pope's Air. He was wearing the Air Jordan's
eighty fives. But anyway, it was really awesome. And we
say that respectfully. We're having a sort of day. I mean,
it's Catholic, dude, I had my kid. Even if you're
not about have a little pride in America. We have
an American pope. There's one point four billion Catholics out there.

(38:36):
And for the record, Rich and I were all we're
all pretty much raised Catholic. You know my do you
know my confirmation name? You got to pick it where
I grew upout it like, and I chose. I chose
Joseph because of Joel Oh I took because if you
had an amazing technicolor dream coat. I chose Thomas after
my grandfather, Thomas Thomas.

Speaker 3 (38:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (38:57):
So I was supposed to be a hobby air. But
the the.

Speaker 3 (39:02):
Xavier it was my confirmation name. What that makes sense.

Speaker 9 (39:08):
But the clergyman that was doing this ceremony, he called
me Xavier and I'm like, no, it's Javier. He's from
like I think he was from Argentina or something. So
you so you picked like a saint, right?

Speaker 3 (39:19):
Is that what you say?

Speaker 4 (39:20):
I picked my grandfather's name Javier bro Are you serious?

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Io was sam?

Speaker 5 (39:27):
I was?

Speaker 3 (39:28):
But he is. It is spelled x A v I
E R. He was from. Oh he's from Spain. Spain.

Speaker 4 (39:34):
Okay, if we called you that, Javier is his confirmation
name Vier Spain.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
By the way, that might be the funniest thing.

Speaker 5 (39:44):
I'm gonna say, Javier L. Johnson.

Speaker 2 (39:46):
That's how damer you know? On on i' more on
the Pope talk. This is this is actual audio. This
is not me building it up and it's it's it's
a joke because I was amazed by this. W g
N gets it interview with the Pope's brother. This, I
think this is like a huge gets a huge.

Speaker 8 (40:06):
You have a.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Thousand questions that you could ask. Maybe they don't have
that much time, so you ask the important questions. Then
as you guys know and Danny knows, and circling and
trying to figure out what's the best of the one
video clip that they put on WGM in talking to
the Pope's brother. The guy's brother just became pope, wow,
five hours ago. Here's the question you're ready for this.

(40:32):
Cubs are white Sox fan.

Speaker 7 (40:34):
Yeah, he was never ever a Cubs fan, so I
don't know where that came from. He was always a
Socks fan.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
Wow. Yes, our mother.

Speaker 7 (40:41):
Was a Cubs fan. I don't know, maybe that include
in there, and our dad was a Cardinals fan. So
I don't know where that all came from.

Speaker 6 (40:48):
There.

Speaker 2 (40:49):
So that's the But that's the video that they put up,
not like, what was it like growing up with the
Pope or having him as your brother.

Speaker 4 (40:57):
Can you imagine Harold Bains and guys like and Fisk
and like, yeah, he's a fan of me, Pope. Frank
Thomas is like, that's crazy white Jersey underneath.

Speaker 3 (41:10):
All the roads, No joke's got that New City connect.
You know. That is cool man.

Speaker 9 (41:15):
That sounds that came out with that Chicago Bulls sounds
like the Sebastian Man Scalcal controversy. He's like, you know,
I'll do both.

Speaker 3 (41:22):
Why not?

Speaker 4 (41:23):
That's great And honestly, guys, we say all this respectfully.
That was so cool to see and the fact that
he's American and from Chicago, that's a that's a win
for America today.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
That's awesome. I agree. With them by one hundred percent.

Speaker 4 (41:35):
W g in That is a cool get the Pope's
brother the day he's announced.

Speaker 3 (41:38):
As the Pope, very cool.

Speaker 4 (41:40):
And I'll give shout out to our buddy KFC from barstool.
Did you see he broke down what he thinks was
harder to become a cardinal in the Catholic Church or
a Saint Louis cardinal, And when you look at the
odds similar, it really is a cool little breakdown. So
I'll shout out to him, Well, congrats again and it's
been a crazy day. But back to our previous conversation, Guys,

(42:03):
not only was the Pope announced, but today happens to
be by the world a Coke Day. And I know
that pales in comparison to the Pope the Pope Day,
but coke is a major part of our lives and
a major part of Americana eighteen eighty six, a part
of our history. And this is when it came out.
It actually had cocaine in it when it first came out,

(42:26):
and I'm a big fan. I don't drink coke as
much anymore, unless, of course it's Mexican coke with the
real sugar in them. Right, it comes to the old
school bottle with the real sugar cane.

Speaker 3 (42:35):
I'm a fan of cherry coke.

Speaker 4 (42:37):
Yeah, I mean, who isn't. Those remix machines are insane, right,
we get to mix it up. But I do have
a Coke zero still once or twice a week right
out of the machine.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
Right there.

Speaker 4 (42:45):
I'm a big fan of that. But rich already said it.
Coke zero was a thing. One misstep and it was
a misstep new coke, and she said coke there, Coke
zero is delicious. I'm sorry, new Coke, New Coke. Coke
zero is great because it tastes a lot like coke. Yeah,
new Coke is when he messed with the formula and

(43:05):
people are like, what that is too sweet? Yeah, we
don't like this, bring back the old coke. So New
Coke came out, grand opening, grand close. It so based
on that old school and fifty hits. So it back
on a Thursday. What were some other nostalgic things that
came and went discontinued, items that come to mind for you. Now,
there was a lot of everyb bas based on soft drinks.

(43:28):
If you're gonna get mentioned and shout out coke on
Coke Day. H Do you guys remember how cool you
thought for a minute crystal Pepsi was. I was just
looking at it right now, Crystal Pepsi. Maybe they did
crystal gravy on Saturday Night Live.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Well, you know what that was the age we got to.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
I mean, it's coke Day, but you got to give
props to Pepsi because without that rivalry, like we say
all the time, every Muhammad Ali needs their Joe Frasier, right,
Everybody needs their Yankees for real. They need that to
get the best out of each other. That war, the
cola war, is what made Coca Cola what it is today.
It's a monster, and Pepsi's not too far behind.

Speaker 3 (44:01):
Yeah, por guy myself, you are a Pepsi guy. Yeah,
you're the choice of You're the choice of the generation.
Hobby there.

Speaker 9 (44:07):
I like the flavory. I like the Swiss, the sweeter.
It's a little sweeter than coke I just like I
would lean that direction too, because I like diet pepsi.

Speaker 3 (44:14):
I don't hate on Pepsi.

Speaker 4 (44:15):
But as far as branding, dude, look, if there's kitties watching,
if there's kitties listening, I should say ear muffs kitties
of the car. I think we could talk around it. Yeah, really,
I think that I'll just say that Coca Cola also
responsible for some of the greatest Christmas characters that we know. Yeah,
some of the some of the colors that represent Christmas,

(44:35):
and so they sort of shake Cola shape.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
The world we live in a lot of ways.

Speaker 4 (44:40):
Right, So on this day discontinued items a lah new Coke.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
New Coke came out April twenty third, nineteen eighty five.

Speaker 9 (44:50):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
Coca Cola said that they hoped it would be talked
about for generations to come.

Speaker 5 (44:55):
Well, and this article says, well, they got their wish.

Speaker 4 (44:57):
Yeah, we're talking about it today. So Crystal PEPSI New Coke.
I'll throw one out there and then we'll go to
the phones for me. We somehow mentioned Fat Albert and
Bill Cosby earlier in the show My Favorite ice cream Treat.
When I was a kid, frozen food section of the supermarket.
I thought there was nothing better than a jell O

(45:19):
pudding pop.

Speaker 3 (45:20):
They were so good, man. They get a little icy too,
a little bit he bite the sides of them.

Speaker 4 (45:27):
There was something about a pudding pop so good that
was so good, they really were. Why did they get
rid of them? Bill Cosby was the spokesman at the time.
General put them pups, But they were great. I never
understood why they went away. I'm with you on that
discontinued items. Let's go to the phones, because there's so many.
We could talk about this all day. I'm trying to
think of one that really broke my heart the most

(45:48):
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox?

Speaker 3 (45:51):
Who do we got? Do you want to start?

Speaker 4 (45:53):
Let's say hi to Josh and Tennessee. Hey Josh, thanks
for waiting everybody. We appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (45:57):
What's up, buddy? What comes to mind for you?

Speaker 6 (46:02):
I'm kind of on the line with him on the
ice cream. Mine is a taco taco and whatever I
can find me or my wife can't find it, whatsoever.
And I was in love with it.

Speaker 4 (46:12):
That was in the past few years in fact. But
then it's only us to blame. And it's the twinkie theory, right.
If you remember a few years ago, we've talked about
this many times. They were going to discontinue the Twinkie
and everyone's like, are you kidding me?

Speaker 3 (46:25):
And Rich and I. Rich was like, when's the last
time you bought a twinkie and you're like, well and forever.

Speaker 4 (46:29):
Like, well, that's your fault. Were you out there buying
chaco tacos because I love them too? Be guesse what
I hadn't bought any in a while.

Speaker 3 (46:36):
If you are not to blame, if you're.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Not buying Choco tacos on the regular, don't be mad
if they get discontinued.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
I know, sometimes things I'm sorry, Sam, I was just
gonna say, sometimes things get discontinued when it seems like
they're a fan favorite.

Speaker 3 (46:50):
I agreed.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
Like you see fast food restaurants all the time. They'll
bring something back for you know, a limited time, and
you're like, no, keep it on your menu forever, like
we love that.

Speaker 4 (47:00):
My wife is baffled how Taco Bell got rid of
the steak case a rito.

Speaker 3 (47:05):
She's like, oh, that was so good.

Speaker 9 (47:08):
She made you order it like on the app and
they took it off the menu.

Speaker 3 (47:11):
Yeah, And I was like, what the heck? So you
guys also like it? Like my wife's like, it was
steak cheese on a in a burrito form.

Speaker 9 (47:17):
Like you tell casa in a burrito combine. Yeah, I
thought it was great. Yeah, I agree.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
See, I'll tell my wife.

Speaker 4 (47:22):
You guys could order them together, Sam doing the app
anything else come to for you, Dan Bayer.

Speaker 2 (47:27):
I'm having dja vous because I felt we've hit on
a little of this because I remember talking about outback
steakhouses tassie bites because they were so delicious and bringing
them up. They were taking it off. But it leads
me to the point of my buddy told me that
I think Olive Garden maybe had a spinach article choke
dip or something like that that they took off the
menu because nobody else would order any other appetizer, So

(47:51):
they were losing money on all of the other appetizers
that were going to waste because everybody was ordering that
other stuff that that was his. No, I don't know
that's real and not. I'm not the restaurant business.

Speaker 3 (48:03):
I believe your friend. Yeah, I'm not.

Speaker 5 (48:04):
Robert Irvine.

Speaker 2 (48:05):
I'm not sure if that that works or not, but
that's what I was told.

Speaker 4 (48:08):
Let's go to Wisconsin and talk to the Fats. The
Fats you're on with Kevin on Retchords Ubudy. It sounds
like a perfect conversation for the fatsy fellas.

Speaker 9 (48:19):
I'm a Catholic who grew up on PATSI that's why
they taste formula.

Speaker 3 (48:25):
Because they took.

Speaker 6 (48:26):
The pets challenge.

Speaker 5 (48:27):
You remember that.

Speaker 6 (48:27):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (48:28):
Well yeah, Tefsy Challenge.

Speaker 6 (48:30):
That's what it was all about. Man, I'll tell you what.
The same nice discontinued the greatest breakfast cereal of all time,
Apple Jacks.

Speaker 4 (48:38):
Wait a second, well, hold on, don't they live in
little variety packs?

Speaker 3 (48:41):
At least anymore? Apple Jacks are gone? Apple Jacks are gone.
Don't they come in those little packs? Are like fruit loops?
Do they only come in the tiny box?

Speaker 4 (48:48):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (48:49):
They're just tiny.

Speaker 4 (48:50):
But hold look, that's crazy if that's discontinued. I know
dunk Ruse were discontinued. I don't know if they.

Speaker 3 (48:55):
Brought him back or not. Let's say hi to Mark
in New Mexico. It's up, Mark?

Speaker 1 (49:00):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (49:00):
What up? Mark?

Speaker 8 (49:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (49:02):
How are you guys doing?

Speaker 3 (49:03):
Good? Man? What's up?

Speaker 6 (49:04):
Hey? Something that broke my heart recently from my childhood
is when they discontinued one of the little Debbie cakes.
You see, we weren't rich enough to get the high
end Hostess twinkies and cupcakes and snowballs. We had to
settle for the lower level Little Debbie Cakes, and they
discontinued the Banana Twins.

Speaker 5 (49:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:24):
Bro, as long as the cosmic Brownie is still out there,
you're okay. Kasic Brownie is still there. I see it
at the same as. All as that's alive, you're good.

Speaker 9 (49:32):
By the way, Internet's saying, Applejacks cereals still available by
Kellogg's and it's still out there. Maybe this gentleman in
his neck of the woods they don't have.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
To don't know.

Speaker 4 (49:40):
That's yeah, that's possible. But yeah, I'm pretty sure. But
you only see it in those little variety packs. Yeah,
apple Jacks, that's real, old school man. That is hard
to find. And I only know because, oddly enough, my
wife recently got them, and I questioned the move, like, well,
here's the thing. What a lot of these things go away,
but they do come back. Like if you're a Count
Jocula and Frankenberry fan, you know Booberry went away for

(50:05):
a long time, but then all of a sudden he
comes back out of nowhere. You're like, oh, I guess
maybe for Halloween or something. But I did discontinue it.

Speaker 3 (50:12):
At one point.

Speaker 5 (50:12):
Can I give you guys a dessert that.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
I'm sure you're gonna go down memory lane with me
on deep The og apple pie for McDonald's.

Speaker 3 (50:20):
Oude like extra. Yeah, it was so hot it could
burn a hole in your cheek.

Speaker 1 (50:27):
And at first they changed it, which stunk, and then
it's off I think it's off the menu altogether now.

Speaker 4 (50:32):
If I mistake, they never brought back the og one
that was so good. Speaking of McDonald's, who is synonymous
with Coca Cola, if you think it tastes different at McDonald's,
it does. You know, McDonald's and Coca Cola have an
agreement where the syrup carbonation ratio is different to McDonald's
in anywhere else. So there's people that like they store it differently.
I'm pressure, yeah, pressure and the syrup ratio. So when

(50:54):
people say nothing better than like a fountain coke for McDonald's,
it is different.

Speaker 3 (50:58):
That is a fact.

Speaker 4 (50:59):
And speaking McDonald's and the apple pie, on every list
you look up, like favorite discontinued food from McDonald's, one
that comes up on every list is coming back this
this summer, and that's a McDonald's snackrap those sack they're
coming back this summer.

Speaker 5 (51:14):
You know what.

Speaker 9 (51:14):
McDonald's they did briefly, I think in the eighties was
they made pizza. McDonald's made pizza. You know what our
video guy spot always brings up he goes you know what.
I loved the Arch Deluxe. Does anyone remember the Arch Deluxe?
Vaguely at McDonald's.

Speaker 3 (51:28):
That was a big one.

Speaker 4 (51:29):
Hey, Speaking of Coca Cola and again New Coke, do
you guys remember your parents when they were trying to
stay healthy, they would drink tab Yes, yeah, because I am,
I'm pretty certain it's discontinued.

Speaker 3 (51:41):
Pay for it now?

Speaker 2 (51:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (51:43):
Can I have order something if you want to take exactly?
It only lives in back to the future reference and
the jerk. Yep, that's it. That's so funny.

Speaker 4 (51:50):
Tab Let's say, Hi, we'll take one more on then
one move on? Say how to trip our good pala
in Vegas?

Speaker 3 (51:56):
What's up? Trip? Trip? Like I do?

Speaker 6 (51:58):
What's has always.

Speaker 3 (52:00):
Got the trip?

Speaker 5 (52:01):
Like I do?

Speaker 3 (52:01):
What's up? Man?

Speaker 4 (52:03):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (52:03):
So the first two I was gonna say putting yellow
pudding pops that I was gonna say Hostess products.

Speaker 3 (52:09):
But then the third one, how about kudos? Yeah, that was.

Speaker 4 (52:12):
A big deal in the eighties and nineties. I feel
like kids would always put those in their lunchboxes. Are
a big deal, no doubt. And uh, you know, since
we're talking col and thank you trip, you're the man, dude,
have a great, great well Mother's Day weekend and final
talk to you. Well hopefully you're listening tomorrow. You're making
me think of other like Surge. Remember that green drink Serge.

Speaker 3 (52:32):
I think it had extra caffeine.

Speaker 4 (52:33):
Yeah, that's so. It was like got weird soda. And
then of course the Soby rage and nan Nantucket nectars
even exist? Think I think Nantuck does it? Soby does
not exist? Does I have two in my mind? Does
Jolt Cola still exist?

Speaker 3 (52:49):
I haven't seen it. Remember jolts Yeah, novelty item. Now
they might have.

Speaker 4 (52:53):
Those, you know those boxes where you could buy olds being.

Speaker 9 (52:56):
Jolt Calos being relaunched in twenty twenty five. This is
what the wow interwebs tie. That's what the kids need.
Yeah remember code red Yes, oh yeah, that's good. They're
calling it red Con one. Is Jolt Cola Okay, red
Con one?

Speaker 4 (53:10):
Okay, sorry, red Con one. I'm trying to think of
any other any other treats. Yeah, I'll give you one.
I don't even know I don't know if I even
though the name of a lot of the good.

Speaker 3 (53:19):
Humor stuff we grew up with is gun. I'm like
Bubbalo Bill and fat Frog and things like that. Let's
you know't's to go to Alaska real quick, Steve, you're on.
What's that? Buddy?

Speaker 6 (53:29):
Hey, guys, how you doing.

Speaker 3 (53:30):
We're good man.

Speaker 6 (53:32):
Yeah, you guys just took the word right out of
my mouth. I was not ready to say the joke. Cola.
We used to drink that back in the eighties when
I worked the graveyard shift at the post office.

Speaker 4 (53:41):
Yeah, that was the extra sugary caffeinated with the lightning
bolt on it.

Speaker 3 (53:48):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 4 (53:48):
This is a counseling session, though. Let me lay on
the couch while I tell you guys. Myself, I said
to my son this morning, I said, you'll get ready
for school, get your shoes on. We're running late, buddy, boy,
let's go, and he goes, you're on the problem.

Speaker 3 (54:01):
I mean, he's not wrong, he's not right, right, He's
a smart kid. I'm like, imagine, but Danny, imagine you
have your shoes on, Rich? Were you ready? Were you ready? Rich? Imagine?

Speaker 4 (54:15):
He said, put on your shoes, your big dummy. Oh man,
that's great anyway. As I said yesterday, one foot in
dad life and one foot up your ass every afternoon,
kicking ass here on Fox Sports Radio having fun and
Raphaeld Devers wrapping this up. We got to wrap him up, dude.
When you're getting paid that sort of money, and I
get it, you're putting your reputation on the line, but

(54:36):
your professional ballplayer, I think you're playing sort of with
house money there, because even if you're not the best,
no one's expecting you to be, and it then looks
bad on management. If you're doing your best and that's
all anyone expects and you're making how much three hundred
million in ten years, whatever it is, you can go
out there and just do your best and if it

(54:56):
goes wrong, that's on them. It's not on you at
that point, because everybody that you don't play first base,
you're a third baseman. You weren't expected to play the
infield at all. But you got to step up for
your team. It's a team sport. Everybody steps up and
does things that are out of their wheelhouse every once
in a while. It's a growing and learning experience. You
gave a fantastic analogy before, so I'll repeat it and

(55:17):
then we'll move on. I told you the most fun
conversation of the day is coming up. But you gave
the analogy of if you have a general contractor and
he's like, yeah, I dude, drywall, sheet rock. I could
you know I could do this, I could fix this.
Hey do you do bathroom tiles?

Speaker 3 (55:30):
No? Can you?

Speaker 4 (55:33):
I mean if I could probably figure it out, but
that's not my thing. We'll do the bathroom tiles. If
his job doesn't come out pristine. You can't get mad
at him. He's not a it's on the management. He's
not a first basement they misstepped. He wanted to play
third base, stay running, Bregman. But the disobedience that he's
sort of showing, I don't know if that's the right word, unprofessionalism,

(55:54):
whatever you want to call it.

Speaker 3 (55:55):
Oh maybe she pulls up.

Speaker 4 (55:56):
It's a little it's a little interesting because again he
is calling out saying, Yo, they messed up. Why are
you trying to put me At first, it's like, because
we pay you, dude a lot of money, and you're
a ballplayer. We're not asking you to sell hot dogs
in the stands. Maybe he should pull a Benny. That's
my son, You're the problem exactly.

Speaker 3 (56:14):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (56:15):
So it's an interesting story, guys, but I think he
has to get out there. It's a team game. People
step up. That's just what being a team's all about.
You're on the team. So again, unforeseen circumstance and Raphael
Devers has to zip it and get out there.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
Now what, buddy, No.

Speaker 4 (56:31):
I have the question of the day that's gonna Oh okay,
this is we got to get to that.

Speaker 3 (56:35):
Okay, let's promise you this the most fun one.

Speaker 5 (56:37):
Hang on, I'd like to alert all the affiliates down
the line.

Speaker 3 (56:40):
Yeah, question of the day, This is like the hottest
topic of the day.

Speaker 4 (56:43):
No, you sent me a video I wanted to get
to today and it was some guy getting all mad
about the gym he worked at.

Speaker 3 (56:49):
This was wild.

Speaker 4 (56:49):
We're gonna talk about the rules of closing because there's
a guy that works at Planet Fitness, Right. The story goes,
some dude shows up Planet fits its forty five minutes
before closing.

Speaker 3 (57:03):
So you got to keep that in mind. You never
want to be.

Speaker 4 (57:06):
The guy that shows up as the establishment's closing whatever
it is, clothing store, rest all the rules written down
right here right start thinking about that. But this guy
shows up forty five minutes before closing, and the guy
that works a Planet Fitness is not having it.

Speaker 3 (57:22):
Take a listen to this clown.

Speaker 10 (57:24):
We close the gym Atno. Fifteen because we need forty
five minutes to clean the gym.

Speaker 6 (57:28):
No.

Speaker 3 (57:28):
Every single Friday, I close that.

Speaker 10 (57:29):
Door at not fifteen.

Speaker 3 (57:30):
If you come in.

Speaker 10 (57:32):
I'm entitled to here, and I'm entitled to close my
gym so I can clean it because I work in
the gym.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
Yes it is. It's not yours for it, all right,
So go to another one. You can go to as
many gyms as you want. I don't care how much
you want to buy. Yo. This kid is making storry
on Waltz Star right now.

Speaker 4 (57:49):
This kid's mad because the gym is still open for
forty five minutes and he doesn't want any new customers.

Speaker 3 (57:55):
So I wrote this down. I wrote down the rules
of closing.

Speaker 4 (57:58):
Let me give you what I consider some of the
top rules of closing, and I want to get the
phones going. As you always say the most interactive show
here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (58:07):
I always say shake it out. That's what I say.
Scott Free Scott for Elsa's right, that's what I say.

Speaker 4 (58:14):
So the rules of closing, you have to be considerate
and as they say, read the situation, read the room.
If you go to the supermarket and they close Ralphs
or Shop Brad, whoerever you go at ten pm, you
you can't go in there at nine fifty five and

(58:35):
expect to go through the whole store.

Speaker 3 (58:36):
I'm getting my meats for the week and my bread's
and my betspe moseyan. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (58:41):
If you go to let's say the pharmacy CBS, right Aid, Walgreens,
and you need children's tinal because your kid has a
you know, get a little sick. That's an in and out.
If it's nine to fifty eight and you tell the
person at the register like it's right there, I'm gonna
run and grab it.

Speaker 3 (58:57):
Thank you so much.

Speaker 4 (58:59):
That's Okayta do the universal in and out signal in
and out.

Speaker 3 (59:03):
Listen, I'm in and out, in and out. Sorry.

Speaker 4 (59:06):
If you go to a restaurant that closes kitchen closes
at nine thirty, I don't think you could sit down
after nine pm. I think if you sit down at
nine maybe five after ten after I don't I know
they got to close in at nine thirty. No, they
got to clean up and the kitchen's got to close.
But I don't think you could be ordering entrees when
they say the kitchen closes like in fifteen minutes. I

(59:27):
think you've gotta be a half hour nine ten. I think, yeah,
you got to give him twenty to thirty minutes. I
think because they're still gonna be there. I'll give you
one that my buddy used to have a major problem
with my friend growing up. But your hold on, hold on,
I got I gotta interject here because you did say
read the room. Sometimes you'll go to an establishment and
they're closing in about a half hour and early.

Speaker 3 (59:46):
No, it's okay.

Speaker 4 (59:47):
If they're like, it's okay, we still have a few,
it's okay, and you believe that they're not mad about it,
then yeah, I think you could do it. I've seen
people be like, listen, I'm here till eleven o'clock, no
matter what, don't worry about whatever. If it's that sort
of thing, and then yeah, I think you sit down,
my buddy. Do you remember I don't think they are
around anymore. Do you guys remember TCB?

Speaker 3 (01:00:06):
Why?

Speaker 5 (01:00:07):
Oh of course, was it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:08):
The country's best yogurt? Remember the og frozen yogurt. My
buddy used to throw a fit like a little baby
bee when someone would come in five minutes before closing
and be like, could I get a milkshake? Because he
had already washed the machines. So in my mind, if
you go to an ice cream spot, I don't think if.
But maybe your buddy's a little too ambitious trying to

(01:00:29):
get out of TCB.

Speaker 3 (01:00:31):
Why sooner than he should?

Speaker 4 (01:00:33):
I think ice cream shops because they got to clean those,
like milkshake machines and the blenders.

Speaker 3 (01:00:37):
I think, can they just put one scoop on a
sugar cone for you? I think that's okay. You're just
it's a milkshake issue.

Speaker 4 (01:00:43):
I think I think it's a milkshake. I think everybody
knows the frustration though. Whatever story you ever worked, and
if you ever worked in retail or at a restaurant
or whatever, you've experienced this before and it's aggravating. So yeah,
you don't want to put anyone else in that aggravating situation.
But I don't think that's what's going on here. You're
gonna tell me to I couldn't get a nice half
hour workout in the gym. Had forty five minutes left

(01:01:05):
before closing. Yeah, and I understand again, Like I said,
I understand the aggravation. I used to work at a
closed store. I worked at Bennigan's. I've worked a bunch
of different stupid places, but I would work at a
close door and it was like clockwork Friday night, you're
trying to get out. We used to have a nickname
for this guy. Some guy would come in just for
his like Friday night outfit. You're like, oh, we're closing.
This guy's trying on jeans. And we used to call

(01:01:26):
him mister Butt because he had like an oddly fat ass,
Like it was weird, right, It's like there's a guy
that a certain bus guy was like rocking the cakes.

Speaker 3 (01:01:34):
You're like, mister but So. And we would say, oh,
this mister but is here again. It's ridiculous. I said,
you're trying on Levi's we gotta go. It's Friday night.

Speaker 9 (01:01:42):
I thought you were gonna call him like last minute
Larry or something, but it's mister Butt.

Speaker 3 (01:01:46):
And everyone knew, like, mister but this guy's got kidding
a little but head. He comes in here just to
try jeans on it Friday night. We're closing in ten minutes,
and then the thirty three, the thirty forest knives. But
they're a little ton of my botox sweating out.

Speaker 12 (01:01:58):
Dude.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
There's people to this day I worked with I remember, mister.
But and when you when you work at a closed door,
it's different. Forever you mentioned the ice cream machine, they
just start rummaging through the jeans and you got to
refold them and the shirts, and they just start making
a mess after you just cleaned it all up.

Speaker 3 (01:02:15):
Mister, But would be there like clockwork, like this guy
was it? Why did he wait last minute?

Speaker 4 (01:02:18):
Some people don't understand like the code of ethics involved
of yo, dude, we're closing like you got to get
there a little earlier. You mentioned the tie on all
that's an emergency exception, right, so that's there's a major
difference there. Don't be that guy, And I don't think
that's what was happening in this very viral story we
speak of right now. What I think is this kid

(01:02:41):
was trying to get out and he misrepresented planet fitness.

Speaker 3 (01:02:45):
That's the key word. He's trying to get out.

Speaker 9 (01:02:47):
If you work and if he works at somewhere where
it has hours of operation set hours and it closes
at a certain time, you should not have the expectation
that you are leaving when the place closed. If you're
the employee, there has to be time where you're closed
and you're cleaning and after that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
I think we're seeing a generational problem, which is that
right there.

Speaker 3 (01:03:07):
Uh clock hit five, I'm.

Speaker 9 (01:03:09):
Out, Like you're trying to get ahead of things, right,
but it's like it's like yo, man, it's just jump
and chill out.

Speaker 4 (01:03:14):
And then this kid misrepresenting a major company cursing at
a customer. It's like no one takes that pride in
their work anymore. And I know it's a tired argument,
but I think that's what's going on in this situation.
You go to your gym and they're not closing for
another forty five minutes. Again, nice little twenty five minutes,
thirty minute pumpin, And that's what was going on. I'm
not listening to some kid, some young ass pimpleneck do

(01:03:37):
weep telling me to go. I'd be like, get out
of here, beat it. Pay membership COVID our group chat.
When we were all looking at this video. The first
comment Brenda Maid was, you know what she said. I
noticed this with a lot of younger employees now they
think that we're lucky that they're waiting on us because
nobody else wants their job nowadays, so they feel like

(01:03:58):
they can treat customers however they want to because nobody
else wants their job. And by the way, the gym, Danny,
how many times has anyone been to a gym where,
let's say they do close at ten, at nine o'clock,
they'll come on the thing, we have one hour left,
so you know, if you need to take a shower,
act accordingly. They'll give you an hour, half hour, fifteen minute.

(01:04:19):
Most gyms I know New York Sports Club that did
that in New York twenty four hour across the street,
I know.

Speaker 3 (01:04:25):
Gives you the little little heads up.

Speaker 2 (01:04:27):
I think that there's such a balance though as well,
to make it work. If you show up at nine
point fifteen and they're mopping around the treadmills, guess what,
I'm probably not gonna get a run in tonight. But
if it's if it's a problem, like saying, hey, you know,
after a while, maybe maybe you say something to.

Speaker 3 (01:04:45):
The manager of Hey, I get off work at nine.
This is the other time I can get a run in.

Speaker 5 (01:04:50):
Can you do whatever?

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
But I do think there's I completely agree with the
person who has the membership, not the worker in this situation.
But if you do see people cleaning up and doing
stuff in a certain area, maybe you just don't do
that exercise.

Speaker 4 (01:05:03):
Agree that there's a there's a balance of Hey, I'm
a customer versus there's a code of just not being
in an a hole.

Speaker 3 (01:05:08):
Really, Like, you know, you don't want to.

Speaker 4 (01:05:10):
Be the person that's like, oh, you're closing the kitchen
at ten pm, it's nine fifty nine.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Let me take a look at the appetizers. You don't
want to be that guy there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:19):
You know what about when you're lined up for a
business and they don't tell you that person is the
last one, so it's a long line, like you see
this a lot during the holidays. I stood outside one
of those Pandora stores for those overpriced charms for my girl,
and there was probably ten of us in line. They
got to like the third person because they closed their door,
so the line is right out the door and right

(01:05:41):
at ten pm. The lady came out and said I'm sorry,
this person's the last one.

Speaker 3 (01:05:45):
All of us had been waiting for over a half hour.

Speaker 4 (01:05:47):
You got to indicate where the end of the line is,
you know, thank you, you know where this happens a
lot theme parks, like if your kids want to take
a picture with Goofy or Captain America or whatever park
you're at, they'll be like all right, and you'll be
the last person and they have someone stand there unfortunately
telling other people like, yeah, this is this is the end.

Speaker 3 (01:06:04):
Oh that's that's a pain in the butt, Danny. Huh.

Speaker 9 (01:06:06):
The post office does this well, you just get in
the door. If you're in the door and then they're closing,
they pretty much close the door and let they'll let
people out, but you got to just be in the
door because if you try to get after themself, it's
eighty years old. What are the well because the post
office has weird hours like banks do, right, Like they
don't actually cater to people who are like regular customers,
right like we're going to close at five thirty. What

(01:06:29):
people are getting off work at five thirty? Right Like
the bank is like we're only gonna be open for
like an hour and a half on a Saturday, like
what what good does that serve anything?

Speaker 2 (01:06:35):
Banks should open at noon, like truly close at seven
pm noon to eight.

Speaker 4 (01:06:40):
But this particular story, again that went viral today from
Planet Fitness, I think just exemplifies a growing and bigger
problem that we all witness. And that's again, the lack
of courtesy with the younger employees, the fact that they
don't respect the customer, the fact that they don't care
about uh, the hours are staying even a minute longer
than they have to, you know, and it's a it's

(01:07:02):
a real problem. And I sympathize with the guy because
I can't imagine for the life of me, some young
punk talking to me that way because he wants to
get out when I'm trying to get a work out in.
Just put yourself in that situation, guys for a minute.
I get mad with a young person tells me to
do something even when I'm wrong. That's what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:07:19):
I tried. I went to I brought a big.

Speaker 4 (01:07:22):
Starbucks coffee into the movie theater and the kid goes,
you can't bring outside drinks in. I said, that's cute,
and I just kept walking. Yeah, look, and I did.
I was wrong and we're coming from a place of
we get it. Everybody wants to get home and wrap
the day up. And we've been there before. But forty
five minutes before the gym closes, that's the story as

(01:07:42):
we know it.

Speaker 3 (01:07:43):
And much like that one hundred men versus gorilla.

Speaker 4 (01:07:46):
Don't be surprised if you see this goes a little
more viral over the weekend because they keep seeing it
pop up viral. Gym guy, take one more listen, then
we'll take some feedback.

Speaker 10 (01:07:54):
We close the gym at knock the team because we
need forty five minutes to clean the gym. No, every
single Friday, I closed that door fifteen if you come in,
and I'm entitled to close my gym.

Speaker 3 (01:08:04):
So i can clean it because I work in gym.
Yes it is, it's not yours. I pay for it,
all right, So go to another one. You can go
to as many gyms as you want. I don't care
how much you want to.

Speaker 4 (01:08:13):
Beg yep, and they I think escorts them out like aggressively.
And it's not it's not like a big intimidating kid.
It's just really just but he's he's this is the problem.

Speaker 9 (01:08:25):
You can hear it in the first like couple sentences
like I close my gym at nine fifteen, but he's
saying that he likes to start cleaning up at nine
to fifteen. The gym has not closed it for another
forty five minutes exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:08:35):
Yeah, that's why it's viral.

Speaker 4 (01:08:36):
Bub Bubba and reading you're all with Coveno on retch
Hey Buba, Hey, what so on? Gentlemen?

Speaker 5 (01:08:41):
Hey man, so that guy's trash.

Speaker 6 (01:08:47):
You guys are completely nail on the head.

Speaker 3 (01:08:50):
I work at a restaurant.

Speaker 2 (01:08:52):
It's forty five minutes to an hour. Yeah, that's the
cutoff for me.

Speaker 4 (01:08:56):
And and yeah, and Bubba, we're pretty right on as
far as like, also, you'll be courteous, like you're not
going to start ordering five course meals when the kitchen's
about to close, right, I mean that's also you gotta.

Speaker 6 (01:09:05):
Be Can I get a bottle of wine with that?

Speaker 2 (01:09:07):
Can you open that for me?

Speaker 3 (01:09:08):
Yeah? Yeah, I agree with you guys.

Speaker 4 (01:09:12):
Right now, it's time for the fastest growing game in
Fox Sports radio history.

They both have a powerful presence in the sports world.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
Look harder, So you can do that. When you're seventy two.

Speaker 8 (01:09:35):

Speaker 5 (01:09:57):
Oh yeah, all right.

Speaker 1 (01:09:58):
Well this game started from a Rich's late night edible
mind and turned into an on air game I've put
together quite a few times. Now, let's meet our contestant
on the studio lines, dB, I'm gonna use you for this.

Speaker 5 (01:10:08):

Speaker 3 (01:10:47):
Okay, cool, nice, All right, here's what we gotta do,
Danny g want to explain the rules. Yeah, here's how
it works.

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
I've done extensive research on Coach and Covino and their
young girlfriends. Each member of the crew is going to
read a fun fact and then Steve, you gotta tell us.
Is it Steve Covino or Bill Belichick? You have five
chances to get too correct for a beautiful swiggy and
Rich is going to read the first fun fact.

Speaker 4 (01:11:11):
Before I read my fun fact. I want to let
it be known your Jordan is allowed here at work. Yes,
if she wanted, if she wanted to stop by. And
her name is pronounced Jordan with a y, it's not Jordan.
There was calling her Jordan all of a sudden. You know,
I guess Portnoy calls her Jordan. How did that become
because it's when all right, here's my fact, Steve. Is

(01:11:34):
this Covino or Belichick? He was once seen inside a
Las Vegas casino wearing an AB simulator belt, you know,
one of the little stimulator the little things that shake
your abs. Once caught inside a Vegas casino wearing an
AB stimulator belt. Cavino or Belichickno, yes.

Speaker 3 (01:11:57):
Why was he so confident that it was me? You
didn't hesitate at all. You want to explain yourself.

Speaker 4 (01:12:03):
We got this new product sent to us through radio
comercial item that stimulates your your abs.

Speaker 3 (01:12:12):
You know, you had to gel up your belly.

Speaker 4 (01:12:14):
And he was slapped this belt on and I just
had it on and I kind of forgotten. I just
left it on, and then someone called me out on it,
and I'm like, yeah, I'm having a.

Speaker 3 (01:12:22):
Workout to stay here.

Speaker 12 (01:12:23):
How do you leave your hotel room forgetting that you
have a shock in that belt sizzled my abs?

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
That Danny, he's right, But I was the one that
saw this nice hotel too.

Speaker 3 (01:12:34):
We ow my abs did this intentionally, and I think
we faintly heard like a.

Speaker 4 (01:12:44):
And I remember we had got this delivered vibrating what
he had got this delivered to the radio station. It
was you jelly up your belly like almost like an ultrasound.
You put this belt on it, let's take red sixty.

Speaker 3 (01:13:00):
Lift up your shirt. So yeah, that was me.

Speaker 1 (01:13:01):
You're right, Stephen Alaska halfway to a swiggy. Dan Buyer
is going to read the second fun fact.

Speaker 2 (01:13:07):
His Jordan wrote a post on Instagram that said she
quote was basically born on the water end quote Gavino
or Belichick.

Speaker 3 (01:13:16):
Which Jordan was born on the water, born on the water.
I've seen oh Bellichick, Yes, just like that.

Speaker 8 (01:13:26):
The board.

Speaker 1 (01:13:28):
Steve and Juna Alaska, you are a winner there and Juno, congratulations.
We're gonna mail out a shiny new sea in our
swiggy to you. Yeah, and she's she's from Maine. She
is all for the fishermen there. Remember we learned that
fun fact that yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:13:41):
And she thinks she's a mermaid too when she's like, yeah,
floating around with Bill. She loves Lopster.

Speaker 1 (01:13:46):
Yeah, her dad and grandpa took her out to the
water so much, she said she feels like she was
born on the water.

Speaker 3 (01:13:51):
I'll tell you what, I really love this game.

Speaker 4 (01:13:53):
But the more and more I hear about these two,
I don't even want to be compared with them. So yeah,
so hey, congratulate relations man, Hey Steve, thank you by it.
All right, shout out to all the Steves.

Speaker 3 (01:14:05):
Here goes another lucky winner.

Speaker 4 (01:14:06):
If you want to qualify for a swiggy, you could
just leave a nice review wherever you stream your podcast,
search Covino and Rich and leave a nice review for us.
But yeah, man, the big story today was well, Pablo
Torri said he had sources right that said that Belichick's
Jordaan was banned at USC and the facilities and practices,

(01:14:26):
and she's overstepping and you are hearing rumblings that the
family's concerned, right, because look at it this way. We
don't know the truth. We don't know what Bill Belichick
really wants and what he is saying, and you know,
as far as all of this, but here's a guy
who is the coach of the most alpha men around
and he's being bossed around by a twenty four year
old woman, or that's how it appears, or maybe that's

(01:14:49):
what you want works for his brand, that's not listen.
Cowhard was the one guy from the beginning that said, yeah,
she's sort of also acting like a PR specialist for
a guy that needs Maybe I see you don't attract
younger fans.

Speaker 3 (01:15:02):
But at his expense, I don't know. It looks a
little weird.

Speaker 4 (01:15:05):
So today, the report from Pablo Tori and other media
publications after that was that she was banned, and then
TMZ did some research to say, now, completely not true.
She wasn't banned from anywhere or anything. So that was
a fake story today and your Jordan's all out here
at Fox Sports. Yeah, I got that banned, all right?

Speaker 8 (01:15:24):
Cool?

Speaker 4 (01:15:25):
Listen, we got weekend Hobnobin coming up, so so many
games we got to talk about when and where to
watch them, plus a lot of cool stuff that's streaming.

Speaker 3 (01:15:32):
