(08:17):
I went to a uh, we're gonna get the dv's update.
I just want to let you know I went to
a Dick Sporting Good yesterday here in New bronfols in
between San Antonio and Austin and Danny g they are
that whole place is Wemby and now Fox. They got
all the new Spur stuff and let me tell you,
the locals here are really pumped about this team, and
they very well should be. And a lot of the
throwback Spur stuff is popping. You're seeing a lot of

(08:40):
people you know that what do they call it is
that the uh this is a name for it, but
that you know the Spurs logo coudno with like the
pink and the orange and the yellow, like that old
School Spurs logo. Yeah, I don't know the name of
it though, there's.

Speaker 9 (08:51):
A name for that particular throwback, but that's everywhere. So
the Spurs are like much like the Patriots, their turnaround
to greatness seems like it didn't last very long, Like
they didn't suck for that long, right, Just a lot
of cool Spur stuff, I'm saying. All right, let's go
to DV for an update. Dan Byer, what's up, man?

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Fiesta throwbacks? Is that you?

Speaker 7 (09:09):
I check it out?

Speaker 1 (09:10):
But that's what the That's what the old internet said.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
But yah, they love it, dB.

Speaker 9 (09:13):
There's so much Fiesta gear at the sporting good stores
even at Target, like it's it's there.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
They're really pumping it up.

Speaker 8 (09:19):
I know they want a new arena as well, and
that's people are freaking out, like, man, now we got
Victor women Yama and could the team move if we
don't get this arena? A lot of scuttle bit about that,
but uh, yeah, the Spurs are a hot team for sure.
Let's get to some NFL news before we wrap it
up with some hoops news from tonight. Giants fired heat
coach Brian Dabole following the loss on Sunday to the Bears.

(09:42):
Table finished his time in New York with a twenty
and forty and one regular season record one playoff appearance.
Offensive coordinator Mike Kafka will serve as the interim head coach.
Ownership says that GM Joe Shane will remain on and
lead the search for a new head coach. Bengals quarterback
Joe Burrow practicing today on a limited basis. He will
not play against these Steelers in Week eleven, but the

(10:04):
team did open the twenty one day practice window for
Burrow to return from his toe injury. Broncos linebacker Alex
Singleton revealed that he underwent surgery on Friday after being
diagnosed with testicular cancer. This is interesting because Singleton says
that he had a random drug test from the NFL.
There were elevated levels in his system and he said,
I know, I didn't do anything, went and got checked out.

(10:27):
Sure enough, a cancerous tumor was found. Clayton Thursday night
against the Raiders had surgery the next day. He hopes
to return this season, says the doctors have given him
and his family a great prognosis. But Alex Singleton of
the Broncos, revealing that today, thank you Dan.

Speaker 4 (10:41):
Dan, the grand champion of the day. So tough to
beat the Great Dan. Byer Caffino and Rich on Fox
Sports Radio. Now, Rich, I definitely want your take on
Monday Night Football. Rich is the gambling fool of the show. Hey,
do you like a snow game?

Speaker 9 (10:54):
Because it looks like it's it looks like Lambeau is
up with Popu. It's some flurry. So we'll talk a
little Monday Night Football.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
Book.

Speaker 9 (11:01):
Cavino, our buddy Rob who listens in San Antonio. I
think he's going to meet up with me for a
beer tonight at a at Worst fest. He said when
we talk football, the number one underrated guy this year.
Now some may be giving him credit.

Speaker 1 (11:15):
What do you think.

Speaker 9 (11:15):
Matthew Stafford's touchdown to interception ratio is Matthew Stafford on
the Rams who looked really good?

Speaker 4 (11:21):
I mean, it must be really good if you're bringing
this up. So get this break it to me.

Speaker 9 (11:26):
Get this Timmy no breaks all games, twenty no breaks,
twenty five tuties, two interceptions.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
Wow, Yeah, that's it. That's man looking solid like.

Speaker 4 (11:35):
But I'm saying the Rams have a good record.

Speaker 9 (11:37):
They're like like why, Like, are we just so used
to Stafford just delivering at that level?

Speaker 4 (11:42):
It's probably it. We take it for granted. Yeah, and
he's got some good targets. Let me leave you with
a trivia question. I'll tell you the answer on the
flip of it. I'm in New Bronfles, Texas. What five
time All Star.

Speaker 9 (11:54):
Bet at two ninety three, three hundred and sixty six
career home run went to my wife's high school in
New Bronfles, Texas. Three sixty six home runs, five time
All Star batted two ninety three, And I'll give you
this hint. He played for a Texas team. I'll give
you the answer next right here. Covino on Rich Worst Fest,

(12:18):
which is a beer and sausage festival. And like I said,
if you're in the New Brofels, San Antonio, Austin area and.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
You happen to if you think you see me, come
say hi.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
Aren't you running for Grand Marshall of Theueni Praade. Yeah,
I'm running for Grand WIENI Grand WIENI go support Rich
at the Worst Fest. You pose the trivia question, Yeah,
that's the answer.

Speaker 9 (12:41):
Yeah, give us this all right, This is a baseball
player that graduated in your year. Cavino went to high
school ten years before my wife, and he graduated in
ninety four Canyon High School in New Bronfles, Texas. Three
hundred and sixty six career home runs, two ninety three
career batting average, six time All Star. I'll give you

(13:04):
one more hint, nickname the Big Puma. The answer Lance Berkman.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Ah, dude, you didn't even give him a chance. What dude,
Danny G had everybody, that's my witness in this studio.

Speaker 4 (13:17):
Okay, I gave you.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
I gave you a beat, and I heard silence. I
didn't know you were going to blurt out the answer was.
I was like waiting to jump in. I saw it.

Speaker 4 (13:26):
Yeah, you know, I really loved Danny G's answer, and
I was trying to think of something. I was like,
there's no way Pud Rodriguez is from New Bromfles, Texas.
You know, I'm like Josh Hamilton. Yeah, because his numbers
weren't that hot.

Speaker 7 (13:38):
Off the air.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
We were thinking about guys who either played for the
Astros or the Rangers, and I told Covino, I'm like,
how about a dude like Berkman. I don't know where
he's from, but he nailed it. Yeah, I knew he
hit the three hundred some odd home runs.

Speaker 9 (13:51):
Yeah, yeah, so six time All Star, three hundred and
sixty six home runs, two ninety three, the big Puma
from New bromfles Texas and they also.

Speaker 7 (14:00):
I'm fat Elvis. Yes, Elvis.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
He had a few.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
Yeah, and he had a couple of coffee as a
Yankee if you guys remember coffee.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Cool.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
But yeah, he's definitely a famous Texan, famous astro. Lance Berkman,
So Cavino and Rich we're out here in La Riches,
in Texas, and dude, you know what, We're gonna have
to save the burner account stories for tomorrow. Burner account
stories for tomorrow. But as we get ready for Monday
night Foosball, anyone else find it weird that Tomlin sort
of threw Rogers under the bus. Then you think that

(14:30):
was a weird They're like Polers though, did say I
need to play a hell of a lot better. Yeah
that was, but it was a weird reaction. Would you
think like insinuating? Yeah, he played like ass. I felt
weird about that. So anyway, he didn't get a chance
to really dive into that in things that make you
go hm hmm. But he did play like as he
looked like cheeks yesterday. Now tonight you're six and two

(14:53):
Eagles at your five to two and one Packers, as
a lot of people are saying. I heard Colin saying
this too, like Packers are trying to find out who
they are still at this point of the season. How
do you see uh, how do you see us wrapping
up Week ten?

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Rich?

Speaker 9 (15:07):
I mean they are so evenly matched. I mean Vegas
sort of has This is like a pretty even matchup.

Speaker 4 (15:14):
I'm gonna go back because the Packers at home. My
wife's a Packers fan, I'm in our hometown.

Speaker 9 (15:21):
We're probably gonna go watch the game while we drink
some brew hahas and have some sausage at Worsfest.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
Yeah, you know what I'm gonna go.

Speaker 9 (15:29):
I'm gonna go Packers, just close game, field goal maybe
maybe maybe six. I feel like tonight's tonight where we realize,
oh yeah, the Packers in the mix. Because we talked
about the powerhouses of the NFC, the Eagles, the Lions,
we talked about we talked about the rams Cove, how
the Rams at Matthew Stafford, Are you know we're sort
of overlooking them? But I think let's let's put the

(15:51):
Packers in that conversation. I think tonight's a statement game.
I think if the Eagles went on the road in
Green Bay, then then all of a sudden, people are
gonna be like map the Eagles may repeat. So Tonight's
a game that I think the Packers also for playoff positioning.
If you want the road to the super Bowl to
go through Green Bay, you gotta win tonight.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
What's that?

Speaker 4 (16:10):
Buddy boy? Rich is wearing a cowboy outfit, like he's
cowboy Curtis. Oh, he's pee Wee Herman. At the rodeo, Rich, yesterday,
I was wearing my worst fest hat.

Speaker 9 (16:20):
I bumped into my pal you might have heard of him,
an arch Manning, and he got me this sweet ut hat.

Speaker 1 (16:25):
Should I rock this today?

Speaker 10 (16:25):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (16:26):
Yeah, rock that if it fits your size eight and
a half noggin.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
No it doesn't, see, of course it doesn't.

Speaker 4 (16:31):

Angeles live from the Fox Sports Radio studio, and like

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Dude, I'm in Austin.

Speaker 9 (17:36):
I'm about five hours away from the firing of Nico Harrison,
which we're gonna kick the show off with in a second,
because we have a theory about getting fired.

Speaker 4 (17:43):
Yeah, dude, I'm getting ul who have a job man?

Speaker 9 (17:45):
Getting the old Vince McMahon or the Trump You're fired,
you're fire like. So, I mean we have a theory
on this, but I gotta say one more time, look
at his utaht Is there not a sleeker, tighter logo
than that?

Speaker 4 (17:59):
Those definitely tight on your head. But yes it's a
very sweet looking, fresh and clean, very crispy, crispity crunchity,
nice hat. And if you miss any of today's show,

(18:23):
around for shack Diesel, Whack Diesel. Now. Very thankful to
be here, Rich, you know why, because I've been humbled before,
We've been humbled.

Speaker 9 (18:32):
Can I start the show also by saying, we salute
our veterans on Veterans Day, everyone that served our country.

Speaker 1 (18:39):
Why you think I'm wearing an army shout out? First?

Speaker 4 (18:41):
Why you think I'm wearing army green? Why do you
think I'm wearing this bracelet here made by Army trunks
right there, the gun metal I'm a rocking it absolutely,
saluting the troops and for those about the rock, I
salute you. Thank you guys, but all the troops. Shout
out to my brother in law who's in the Air Force,
my brother in law Clayton Marines, Army, Navy. Thank you

(19:04):
guys for all your service. Rich is right man. Hope
you guys enjoyed your day, enjoy the week.

Speaker 9 (19:09):
Shout out to our video guy Spot who loves the
song in the Navy.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Yeah he does, Yes, he does. In fact, he's dancing
to it right now. So Yes, Happy Veterans Day. I
hope the kiddos had a nice day off and we
slew anyone who served our country. Oh man, I don't
know if I could have ever done that. So that's
why we do the best we can here on Fox
Sports Radio. Thank you guys for doing it for us.
And again it goes back to what I said before

(19:33):
about being thankful and grateful to have a job because
nothing's guaranteed in life. And that's what I've learned through
years of ups and downs. Now Rich and I have
been very fortunate to work together for over twenty years.
But there's never been a guarantee used to get nice
long contracts, and that was like year to year, and
you're always on like the edge of your seat, wonder
if you're gonna get signed again. It's not a fun

(19:55):
life to live. COVID changed everything. People lost jobs. People
go through jobs now way more than they did. And
our parents come up and our grandparents come up rich.
We talk about it all the time. Your grandfather probably
worked for the same company's entire life.

Speaker 9 (20:11):
He worked for con Edison in Queens, New York for
you know, forty fifty years and got to watch and
retired like that was the old guy routine. That that
was the blueprint. Now people are job hopping. It's a
different world. But CAF, you know what, I have a
theory when we want to get into and it has
to do with the Nico Harrison firing yesterday, of course.
Brian Dable, I feel like to be a man or

(20:32):
a woman, to be truly humbled, to have character, you
need to have been fired and dumped in your life.

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Dumped especially yeah, dumped. I think changes of person fired
does too, though, because it just shows you what you're
really made of. It's not a fun experience. We've all
been there. I like to say let go, or it
didn't work out, or they gave us an offer we
couldn't accept. But truth is, you get an offer that
you can't because they're putting you in a place where

(21:02):
you're forced to move on or forced to quit. So essentially,
it kind of got fired and it's happened to the
best of us. But you got to rise like the phoenix.
That's really what you have to do. It's your back's
against the wall, especially if you have a family, You're like,
all right, I gotta get together. I got to develop
a new skill. I gotta figure it out. And that's
when you feel the most alive. And again, that's when
it really shows what you are as a man or

(21:25):
a woman and what you're made of. And it's happened
from the smallest of levels. Rich, Weren't you fired at Wendy's.
I was fired at Wendy's. I was fired at a
radio station. We've all been fired and we've all been dumped.
And I really do think it's a true.

Speaker 9 (21:39):
Test of how you rebound. It humbles you when you
think you're invincible, Like Yo, She'll never dump met me.
We saw Cavino at his most miserable moments when he
thought some of these girls would never leave him, and
then he's crying in his beer.

Speaker 4 (21:53):
I think that's just as important as getting fired. Look,
no one likes these things, but it's a part of
life that shapes you and gives you character, said and Rich,
that's a great example in my first learning experience that
life's not always going to be sunshine and rainbows. As
Rocky about Bullas.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Said, you're like You're life ain'tal sunshine.

Speaker 4 (22:11):
I was definitely that guy who walked with the strut,
thought his eston stink was the coolest dude in the room.
She'd never break up with me. She's lucky to have me.
I'm God's gift to women. I'm the greatest guy because
my mom told me so. And sure enough, Man, I
was dumped on my ass time and time again by
women who thought otherwise. Well, and you know what, though,

(22:34):
it motivated me, It lit a fire. It let me
know that I wasn't all that in the bag of chip, says.
Your dad probably used to say. You know, and I
remember this clear as day, Rich, My uncle Joe said
to me, you know what, he's like, actually, like you
better man. As a result, because you've been humbled, you
become a real person. You're no longer a cocky wooden

(22:56):
boy anymore. You're not a Pinocchio. You're a real man
because you know what it's like to experience heartbreak and
loss and defeat and being fired. It humbles you and
it puts you on your ass into a real place
that some people need to be.

Speaker 9 (23:11):
And before he got fired, we used to call him Coveinocchio. No,
but I remember we are on Fox Sports Radio. Is
it true that the first two main girlfriends you've had
in your life back in your day?

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (23:22):
Are you going to tie this into sports dumped you
for a New Jersey Net Yes, at the time.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:26):
And then the next girlfriend dumped you for a New
York Ranger. Absolutely. Yes, that's a true story. I'm not
proud of it, but it goes to show you. I
was a dude living in my parents' basement, or as
I used to tell girls, I have these old roommates
that live with me. Don't mind those old people, they're
my roommates. They live upstairs. They rent for me, they
rent from me. I was living at home. I was

(23:48):
driving radio station vehicles. I was on my grind, on
my come up. I sold these beautiful women on my
goals and dreams, and they left me for dudes with money.
They left me for dudes that were doing big things
and professionals. Sports that humbles you. So back to back days,
we're talking about people getting fired.

Speaker 9 (24:06):
The best of the best in sports have been let
go out of contracts. Coaches have been fired, Players that
are Hall of famers have been Yeah, you know, we're
going to release you. We're not going to pick up
the option on your deal. Like this happens to everyone,
and I really do think it's a test to see
what you're made of. In Enna Wayerson and Brian Dable
both facing these obstacles over the last two days. And

(24:28):
you know what, sometimes the cushions a little softer when
you have guaranteed money and you're like, yeah, I could
just chill for a couple of years like some of
these coaches.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
But there is.

Speaker 9 (24:36):
Something humbling about it. And we want your thoughts on
Nico Harrison. Did he dodge a bullet one too many times?

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Like?

Speaker 4 (24:42):
What are the MAVs are at three and eight if
they had started strong?

Speaker 1 (24:47):
Is he still there.

Speaker 9 (24:48):
I heard Dan Bayer say before dB, I do think
it's funny how he almost tried to like take credit
for winning the lottery and you know, almost like get
made up for the fact for the looping deal. It
is pretty funny how he is sort of skated by.
But I guess everyone hits the end of the road,
you know, when it's time.

Speaker 8 (25:05):
I believe the phrase that he may have used, and
I could get this wrong, but I thought it was
something like fortune favors the Bold, like or like that was.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
His reward for doing that Luca deal. I thought it
was something like that.

Speaker 4 (25:18):
Sounds like a soap opera.

Speaker 11 (25:19):
Yeah, I think Matt Damon said that in a crypto
commercial fortune.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Favors the Bowl.

Speaker 8 (25:24):
It was something along those lines, and everybody just kind
of rolled their eyes.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
Well, the silver lining is you learn and grow from
these moments and you end up somewhere hopefully better than
you were, in a better place that fits better than before.
But I think the firing of Nico Harrison today is
clearly an admission that it was a big mistake letting
Luca go. So, yeah, you lose Nico Harrison, and then

(25:48):
you realize too that Luca is sitting there, sitting pretty
in Los Angeles saying I told you so. Because the
flip side as to why is they have fully admitted
that it was a big mistake letting this dude go,
and I agree Rich hadn't they started out three and eight,
and as Dan Byer said, second worst in the West,
I think he still might have a job. Just like

(26:11):
we said yesterday, day Ball might still have been there
had they not lost that game in the fashion in
which they lost.

Speaker 9 (26:18):
You drop three of your first eleven, I'm sorry, you
only win three year first eleven and you lose four
double digit late leads in the NFL. Listen, it comes
a point where it's like, I don't care, like we've
given this guy won too many chances.

Speaker 4 (26:32):
You're five, Well, all jobs are how you perform all jobs.
If you suck, you're gonna put your job in jeopardy.
And it's not that he suck, but he made a
colossal mistake by letting a superstar player go Cooper flag
Anthony Davis not cutting Anthony Davis wasn't cutting it in
LA with his injuries and not playing the way they hoped.

(26:53):
So it was four years twenty a little over four years.
Twenty twenty one was when he was hired GM to
twenty twenty five, and as of today, nine months after
they let go of Luca, he is fired. So your
thoughts on again ending up where you need to be.
And we wrap it up with this a personal little

(27:15):
antidote because rich and I we were at ESPN and
we worked really hard to get that opportunity, like really hard,
And we've mentioned this story several times. We were on
ESPN Radio for about two years. We gave up every
weekend doing ESPN Radio just to get that TV shot,
that TV show. We finally got our own TV show.

(27:37):
We're on the air for about two years. We finally
get rolling. Everything's going great, everything's going great, and then
COVID happened. Our contract ended during that and we lost
our gig, and man, we were like, well, you could
sit there and feel sorry for yourself, but we were
humbled because like, you're gonna let us go?

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Are you crazy?

Speaker 4 (27:59):
We're the best in the game. How do you not
see this? Come on, Covino and rich Man, this is
our moment.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
And.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
You grab yourself by the bootstraps, as your grandma would say,
I don't even know what that means, well, I.

Speaker 9 (28:12):
Mean, I'd imagine some boots have straps, and that's a
how you cope your boots sproach.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I remember seeing your guys's commercials, your promos for the
show on ESPN, Dude, we were so proud of you, Like,
who are these bozos?

Speaker 4 (28:25):
Right? Yeah, seriously exactly. We were gonna be on every night,
late night. They were about to move our show earlier
on ESPN, and then the COVID thing happened, and honestly
we were like, wow, well, okay, I guess that's life.
Nobody's safe in life period, right, and then we're like,
at least we got our serious XM gig. Dude, after
sixteen plus years out of nowhere COVID contracts, budgets, we

(28:53):
lost our gig at serious XM ors. I like to
say they gave us an offer we couldn't accept.

Speaker 1 (28:58):
Oh yeah, it was.

Speaker 9 (28:58):
It was a weak offer with an I compete, So
it's like, hey, here's less money, but you can't do
anything else.

Speaker 4 (29:03):
So rich and I that's a humbled But we had
to pick ourselves up. We had to do our own thing,
our own Patreon, which we still do, became our own bosses.
And then wouldn't you know it, a blessing called Fox
Sports Radio came our way. I'm forever grateful, forever thankful
Fox Sports Radio scooped us up. Shout out to our
agents and Scott and Don everyone that made it happen,

(29:23):
super agent Sean Wyman. But Rich and I got an
opportunity and we couldn't be happier and in a better place.
But it all happened because we were let go. You
might be in a relationship right now, Rich your marriage.
You wouldn't be married to your beautiful model wife with
your beautiful little nose picking kids if some woman didn't

(29:43):
break your heart along the way.

Speaker 9 (29:45):
True, I mean it all, it all sort of works
itself out, and I think you know it's it's interesting
when you see Nico Harrison get fired and Brian Dable
because when you're in a position like a head coach
or a GM or management, it's wild because people will,
I'll applaud your dismissal, and.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
That's got to be a weird feeling.

Speaker 9 (30:03):
Like most people get dumped or lose their job, most
feel sorry for them.

Speaker 4 (30:07):
The fact that people like Fi yournco and now today.

Speaker 9 (30:10):
They're like yeah, like he's got to really have it
within him to be like, I'm good, I'll find another gig.
I believe in myself. But I think to go with
our point, would love your feedback. Was it about time
or do you think they should have given him this
year to see what happens with Flagg and Davis? Or
do you think that everyone needs to get dumped and
fired to just really see who they are at some

(30:32):
point in their life.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
I think it makes you human, It humanizes you, humbles you,
it builds character. I think all those things are true
rich and I think everybody does need that. You can't
coast true life thinking you're invincible because if you do
get knocked down, you don't know how to recuperate, you
don't know how to handle that. But if you've been
there before, you know you're gonna be just okay. And

(30:54):
I think I love your second layer to this. How
do people feel when they finally got what they wanted?
Like even my uncle Bill. My uncle Bill is one
of the nicest guys, and he's a hardcore Giants fan,
and he was telling me yesterday too. He's like, yeah,
I know it's tough, man, but he had to go.

Speaker 1 (31:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:14):
Sometimes it's warranted. Again, it's sports and it's a game
of winning and you're not producing. But when you get
what you want as a fan, are you really happy
about it? Are you ever really happy to see someone
else's I don't know, demise or failure or fire.

Speaker 9 (31:30):
Or anything because I saw, you know, I saw KFC Barstool.
Our buddy CAFC from Barstool talk about how and Gary
Vee has talked about this as well, where fandom is
weird because she sort of put aside logic and you know,
how you really act as a normal human being, like
like the example would be like, yo, the Yankees suck.

(31:52):
I know the Yankees don't suck. But if you're a
Red Sox fan or don't like the Yankees, you know
they could be the World Series and you're like they
Suck's logic on a fire boone.

Speaker 4 (32:01):
Yeah, And then like you know, you're like the Mets
didn't make the playoffs. My team didn't make the playoffs.
I have all these buddies that are like f Mendoza,
fire that bum, and I'm like, yeah, you don't think
he tried, Like I don't know.

Speaker 9 (32:14):
You start to be sympathetic Danny, and then you realize, like,
why am I being a logical fan?

Speaker 4 (32:18):
That's not what Phantom's about. Yeah, fire up, but his
fandom about being an absolute terrible person.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
Yes, I think so kind.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
I think it seems to be.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, I think you feel bad for the coaches that
are personable, that you actually like and you like hearing
them even in a press conference, the ones with the
punchable faces. Josh McDaniels, those guys, the fan base is
like bye go And obviously he's a good coordinator.

Speaker 7 (32:42):
He's just not a good head coach.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
So it just depends the relationship those coaches have with
their fan base.

Speaker 4 (32:49):
Healthy approach rich like the logical approach would be like, yeah,
he's got to move on, and you just root for
him to do well somewhere else. Right, Well, listen, when
when the people we're talking about, let's be honest, Mike McDaniel,
you know, he may have been driving past bars in
Buffalo after that victory last week, and we might talk
about that stat he's he's.

Speaker 9 (33:08):
A likable guy, but remember we talked about when they're losing,
his sarcastic charm doesn't work as much.

Speaker 4 (33:14):
I mean, do you really want to see that guy
and lose his gig.

Speaker 9 (33:16):
You know his story, how he's cleaned up his whole
life and everything, and Mike McDaniel, coordinator, his whole come up,
gets his opportunity in Miami. You don't really want to
see him fail. But as a fan, you don't give
an s You're like, just get a you're a Dolphins fan,
You're like saying, get rid of him, because fandom is illogical.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
So I think that's the caveat he rich.

Speaker 4 (33:37):
He's out the window.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
They cannot chase your favorite and your best players out
of the organization. Yeah, And that was the rub on
why I mentioned Josh McDaniels. He chased away three Pro
bowlers off that Raider squad. Players did not mix well
with him. It was a bad locker room. So Nico,
you know, obviously chasing away their best player. And I

(34:00):
don't think Dallas is ever going to forgive him for that.
And now you guys are saying, maybe it could be
a blessing in disguise to get another start somewhere else
and to be humbled. But is another NBA organization going
to give Nico another shot after that big of a
swing and a miss? Anthony Davis is a huge part
of this. He's not playing again right now, he's hurt again.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
Yeah, probably not. But the silver lining in life is
that you might end up somewhere better off right, whether
it be in a relationship or a job. That's just
the silver lining for anyone listening. For Nico Harrison. Yeah
he had his chance, man, but you know what, he
made his money, He made his millions. And I think
you know who's really pulling dubbs this week, Luca because

(34:42):
he gets that redemption, that revenge, that storyline that he
knew he was gonna get all along. Oh dude, I'm
gonna show he's playing a mistake. He's playing slap ass
with Austin Reeves hitting half court shots like, you know,
living it up, and Lebron's not even there yet. So
it's like this is But dude, we all got to
use that as motivation, that kicking the ass like Luca
was let go. You know, we got to use that

(35:04):
motivation to inspire all of us to get to that
next level. I don't care if that's a negative way
to be motivated. Whatever motivates you, I think is a
good thing. And if if that's to show someone or
somebody or some company that they made a mistake by
letting you go. Let it motivate you, let it let
your fire because Luca got that redemption that he wanted.
And he's like, you see, that's a full admission that

(35:25):
that was the biggest mistake your organization ever made.

Speaker 9 (35:28):
Well the Giant yesterday with Daboll, the Mavericks today with
Nico Harrison. Did both teams get it right? The answer
is yes, you had to move on from these guys.
But as a fan, like, it's weird to, you know,
cheer the demise of a guy's career. But yo, as
a fan, you're illogical onto the next Let's win, win, win.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
That's what it's all about. And the second layer.

Speaker 9 (35:49):
Like Cavino and I said, if you've never been dumped
and you've never been fired from a job, and I
bump into you, I'm gonna have a hard time trusting
you because I feel like there's something.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
You learned from those experiences.

Speaker 9 (35:59):
If a guy or a woman you ever see, like
a hot chicken, she's like, yeah, no one's ever dumped me.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
I'm like, yeah, you know what, then you've never been
humbled there, buddy.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
Yeah, you're way full of yourself. You're way full of yourself.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
No guy has ever left me. It's like, oh, okay, well.

Speaker 4 (36:12):
Who I'm thinking about Cooper Flag too. There's he must
feel a little bit like he's got some blood on
his hands, Like, yeah, maybe if I played a.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
Little better, you still have a job.

Speaker 4 (36:22):
Because the only solution for Nico Harrison to keep his
job was to win, and that's not what they've been
able to do. And you have to admit, like, we
made a mistake, and at three and eight right now,
I guess they have. So that's the story. Back to
back days. Why are we harping on this so hard?
We got back to back days where performance mattered Day Bowl? Yeah,

(36:43):
the way they lost, As I mentioned yesterday, it's not
just the loss, it's the way they lost and the
way they were losing games fired Nico Harrison. You let
go of a legendary, generational type player. You're hoping it
all pans out.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
It doesn't. Five Yeah, your thoughts and Cove.

Speaker 9 (37:03):
It's also the fact that, well I'm not saying neither
were unexpected, but at the time of the season, like
I think people thought that Davie would finish the year
and I think other people thought like Nico Harrison would
get a little more time. So I think that in
itself also was like oh wow, like they you know,
they finally said up today's day and listen. Like any relationship,
not to tie it to relationships always, but how many

(37:25):
times have a relationship ended on like as we call
it the dryer light theory.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
It's not the big fight.

Speaker 9 (37:31):
Sometimes it's that little thing, like you fought over a
I remember getting in a fight with an ex girlfriend
because she went and closed the dryer door and there
was a little light that stayed on and I asked
her about it and she flipped out on me, and
I was like, we what broke up over a dryer light? No,
it was the bigger picture. But I guess when you
start three and eight, that's their dryer light.

Speaker 4 (37:51):
That's their dryer light. And I have more questions based
on this story. Is the biggest story going on so
far today? Nico Harrison fired nine months If they're getting
rid of Luca, Your thoughts, your observations, your comments, your feedback,
welcome At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox at
Coveno and Rich at Fox Sports Radio, we got more CNR.

(38:12):
He's a legend. He's our friend. He's the host of
the I Want Your Flex podcast. That's right, I'm kissing
his ass. It's the great Dan Bayer.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
TV.

Speaker 8 (38:22):
What's going on, fellas? Yeah, Nico Harrison out of a job.
Today at the University of North Carolina, head coach Bill
Belichick was asked about his interest in the now vacant
head coaching job with the New York Giants.

Speaker 12 (38:33):
I've been done this real before. I'm focused on wait
for us. That's it, and that's my commandment of this team.
And next week it'll be to our next opponent and
so forth. But you know, I'm here to do best
I can for this team.

Speaker 8 (38:46):
I was Bill Belichick in Chapel Hill earlier today.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Guys, back to you, Thank you. Dan.

Speaker 4 (38:50):
Is that his modern day version of Onto Cincinnati?

Speaker 1 (38:52):
Exactly? It's just wake Forest now to me, Cove.

Speaker 9 (38:58):
I know he says he wants to stay put, and
there's the buyouts and the options.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
There's got to be something a little appealing.

Speaker 9 (39:03):
Though, if you're Bill Belichick knowing that Dable and this
team really underdelivered, and you know that they have pieces,
they have draft picks, they have potential, wouldn't that be
a nice little what I call it spot a swan song?

Speaker 1 (39:15):
Your last thing is that? Is that what it is? Yes?

Speaker 9 (39:18):
So Bill Belichick's swansong, going back to where he started
with Bill Parcels in the eighties.

Speaker 1 (39:24):
Yeah, we're on a Cincinnati.

Speaker 8 (39:26):
I think he would absolutely love it. I think he's
always wanted to go back to the Giants. When you
see some of those documentaries, the way that he talks
about the Giants stays his boat has eight rings. It's
the sixth that he won with the Patriots and the
two that he won is the defensive coordinator of the Giants.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
It meant so much to yes, they would, you know,
bookend his career perfectly?

Speaker 8 (39:46):
Yes, I think he would absolutely love it and leave
in a millisecond. It's just a matter of whether ownership
would want him or not.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Oh man, is he you know? All right? Listen? I
have a question.

Speaker 4 (39:56):
Tom Brady's got vested injured obviously in Danny G's Raiders.
He's part of that team now.

Speaker 9 (40:00):
But isn't there a part of you cove that thinks
Bill Belichick with that team. Maybe Tom Brady, if he
wasn't vested with the Raiders, would be like Jackson Dart.
I know he seems like an old stiff, but I
promise you like he'll take you there.

Speaker 1 (40:16):
I don't know, we'll see.

Speaker 4 (40:18):
I don't know, man, I don't know where Belichick's Head's
really at.

Speaker 9 (40:23):
Imagine they imagine he starts coaching there and Jackson Dart
starts sleeping with Jordan Hudson.

Speaker 4 (40:29):
I don't know. I don't think she did anything good
for his reputation. You know, I'll get him a high
five forgetting with her because she's kind of hot, But
as far as his professional reputation, no bueno. So interesting story.
Now back to Nico Harrison because we have a few
phone calls at eighty seven to seven ninety nine out Fox.
He was fired nine months after they got rid of Luca,

(40:52):
and we post so many questions and theories based on this.
Are you, as a fan ever happy? Are you truly
happy that you got what you wanted? If that's what
you wanted? Is that wrong to be happy? Or is sports?
So we throw logic out the window. We established that
and rich, have you ever been the reason I was
thinking about this too? Have you ever been the reason

(41:12):
of someone getting fired? Because anytime I have real complaints,
like real complaints. I always buffer that complain with, Look,
I'm not trying to get anybody fired because I don't
want that karma. I don't want that revenge that guy
trying to get me for getting fired.

Speaker 1 (41:26):
I don't want any of that in my life.

Speaker 4 (41:28):
So I was like, hey, look, I'm not trying to
get anybody fired, but this guy did X, Y, and Z.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
Were you ever the reason?

Speaker 9 (41:33):
No, But I'll tell you what, much like you said,
there have been times at one of our old jobs,
about a decade ago, we saw a guy.

Speaker 4 (41:41):
We thought the guy was like missing in debt.

Speaker 9 (41:43):
He didn't show up to an event to find out
he's on like a bender, drinking and partying, and we
covered for him as a way to be like, hey, listen,
Olive Branch, like, yo, we looked out for you, and
I thought that would make us tighter, and it didn't.

Speaker 4 (41:54):
You know, we got a really bad story, Craig, hold
on one second because I'm gonna get your phone call.
But Rich and I were on TV right Get this.
We worked at a TV channel in New York City,
yeahy sn Y, and one of the production dudes fell
asleep on the set and we're on the air and

(42:16):
we see it and we're like yo, we point at
him and the camera guy. Yeah, he zooms in on
the guy sleeping. We just thought it was funny.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
We did.

Speaker 4 (42:26):
We thought it was funny. We weren't calling him out.
We were friends with the guy. We weren't like tattle tailing.
We were like, yo, he fell asleep.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
What a mess?

Speaker 9 (42:33):
I mean, you know, for people listening to our show,
they know the nature of our show that if let's say,
during a break, I was saying fell asleep, it would
become a joke.

Speaker 1 (42:39):
We weren't be like, you know.

Speaker 4 (42:41):
Yo, dude. That was the final straw and that got
him fired. And we felt so bad about that. We
really did. But we had a you know, reason with ourselves,
like na, like it was coming and that was just
the last straw. But we did feel bad about it.
So if you got what you wanted or you got
somebody fired, is it okay to feel good about that?
So Nico Harrison, he'll be just fine. He made his money,

(43:03):
but he lost his job. And Craig and Montana yeah, yeah,
say hey, Sam, wake up, Sam, come on, man, get
to you're talking about sleep bro Uh.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Craig and Montana you're on the Cavino and Rich show.

Speaker 3 (43:18):
Hi guys, love you, Thanks for to answer my call.

Speaker 1 (43:20):
Thanks.

Speaker 3 (43:22):
So, my little story is I was dating two girls
about twenty years ago, and one was a dancer professional
and one of his hairstylists.

Speaker 9 (43:31):
And basically, hold on, hold on when you say when
you say dancer professional, do you mean like in the
ballet or a really good.

Speaker 13 (43:36):
Stripper like around the pole?

Speaker 1 (43:40):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (43:40):
Okay, yeah, I thank you it okay, I.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
Just Rich is kind of professional.

Speaker 4 (43:43):
Yes, yeah, okay, yes.

Speaker 3 (43:45):
And I was a heavy metal head and basically the
dancer girlfriend was huge in the Metallica and I was
into Pantera, which did not mess with Metallica in my brains.
And so basically I had to make a decision and
I chose to fire the dancer and and I chose

(44:06):
the hairduster. And I'm married to her twenty years to
this day.

Speaker 9 (44:08):
So wow, you should that's a story of romance. You
should have told that at your wedding.

Speaker 1 (44:12):
I hope. So.

Speaker 4 (44:16):
So, she was fired basically because she didn't like Pantas,
she didn't like Metallica the way you liked Metallica.

Speaker 9 (44:22):
Cove, you know, all these stories were talking about tie
together Nico Harrison, Brian Dable, because what happens after you
get fired then begins the mission for what's next, and
it does tie into the Bill Belichick thing. I know
it's just a rumor, and he quickly was like, antoake
forres forever.

Speaker 4 (44:37):
But you don't think what would be a very bad
taste to entertain that while he's still working as a
college coach.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
Agreed, right, But.

Speaker 9 (44:47):
You don't think there's something enticing, like if there weren't
NFL job, like den Byer said, if there weren't NFL
job New York where he started with Parcel, Like, everything
about that situation seems like, oh you got Jackson Dardi
he had.

Speaker 4 (45:00):
He really wants to say, Damn Scibby, get me out
of here.

Speaker 9 (45:03):
Yeah, absolutely, God, can you imagine just paying the s
Jordan Hudson in New York City.

Speaker 4 (45:08):
I mean he wants to say, yes, absolutely, sign me up.
But he can't do that.

Speaker 1 (45:13):
Nah.

Speaker 4 (45:13):
I mean I would think that's what I think, That's
what I would believe. He knows the NFL, he doesn't
know college football.

Speaker 9 (45:21):
When do you judge the trade completely, Danny G I
know you're looking at a three and eight Dallas Mavericks
team and the Lakers look like again, looks like they're
having the most fun time you know in the West.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
Is it? Is it?

Speaker 9 (45:34):
Do you see how the Cooper flag move pans out?
Do you see how Luca if he wins one? Like,
when do we get to judge this trade? Is it
already judged?

Speaker 4 (45:42):
I think it was judged as of right now every
article and just I mean, I don't know, if you
just think about it, this is a full admission that
they made a huge mistake. That's really what it is.

Speaker 1 (45:56):
I mean, I guess you're right, yeah, I mean when you, like.

Speaker 4 (45:58):
You said, when you see Luca playing slap aass with
Reeves and hitting all these shots and looking slim and trim,
it's like he won the breakup.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
Luca made the history books for the most points scored
in a seven game span to open a season. And
then on the other side, Anthony Davis is hurt again
not playing, And that was the one only complaint as
a Lakers fan. I loved watching Anthony Davis, but he
was hurt more than he was on the court.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
It's like, you know what that is.

Speaker 4 (46:28):
That's like you left a woman and then she got
the glow up like Luca did, and then the one
you're with is all hurt and hobbling around like Anthony Davis.

Speaker 1 (46:38):
Yeah, don't, damn don't.

Speaker 2 (46:39):
If you call a lot of us fat, you're gonna
see some results.

Speaker 9 (46:43):
No, honestly, Yeah, if you call someone fat when you
break up with them, they're gonna they're gonna look pretty sweet.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
By the way, have you ever dated that. I don't
want to get dirty here, but have you ever.

Speaker 9 (46:50):
Dated a girl and then right after you guys breakup,
she gets new boobs and you're like, oh, I want
to see.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Yeah, Luca got new boobs.

Speaker 4 (46:56):
Man, you won, He won the breakup, and now you're
stuck with like I said, a hobblin injured Anthony Davis,
who I want to see? He's got deflated boops. All right,
So Covillion trying to give the silver lining of losing
the gig and getting dumped. It builds character. But this
was bound to happen after a three and eight start. Sports,

(47:19):
all rationale, all logic is out the window. Fire him
because we want results, and that's the world we live in.
Grand opening, grand closing, Back to back days where people
got fired here on the Covino and Rich show Covino
and Rich and his time for our tireract Play of
the Day. Justin Edwards had a team high twenty two
for the Sixers against the Celtics, but it was Kelly

(47:41):
Oubrey who iced the game.

Speaker 6 (47:43):
Three point shot in the air. It's long, no good rebound.

Speaker 7 (47:46):
Ubray put back god.

Speaker 14 (47:48):
Six Ers lead with eight point seven ago time out
busted six seconds ago. Brown spins. He goes to Derek
White who drop a Knox a ball head. White dropped
the three seconds ago. He shoots it at the Hornets
in the air. The Boston Celtics best and the Sixers
did get a deflection. Andre Drummonds not to toward midcourt
beat the Celtics by a deuce, one hundred and two

(48:09):
to one.

Speaker 4 (48:10):
Hundred, repped up like a deuce. That was courtesy of
six Years Radio Network, and that was our tire Iraq
Play of the Day. Drummond your favorite drumming since Peter Drummon. Right, Uh,
mister Drummond is my favorite drummond I know.

Speaker 9 (48:24):
For forty years, tire Iraq has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship fast and free backed by free road Hazard Protection,
mobile tire installation tireraq dot com.

Speaker 4 (48:35):
The way tire buying.

Speaker 1 (48:37):
Should be Koch.

Speaker 9 (48:40):
Yes, before the show, you and I were chopping it
up about Gronk and just what a fun guy gronkis.
He's cut from that Jameis Winston Cloth, those athletes that
somehow developed a personality along the way as well.

Speaker 4 (48:53):
Ah, he's just a bonehead. Yeah, and a lovable bonehead.
But lots of personality for sure.

Speaker 9 (48:58):
You know, you say bonehead because he's very BROI but
isn't the rumor that Gronk never spent a dollar of
his NFL money?

Speaker 4 (49:04):
I say that with love. People say the same thing
about me, and I'm like, all right, whatever, I'm Broie, Okay,
that's fine.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
Whatever.

Speaker 4 (49:12):
I don't necessarily consider that an insult. I call you
a bonehead, I call my friend. He seems like a friend, right,
like a guy you hang out with. We've hung out
with Gronk, he's been on the show. He is a
bro He's very charismatic, very funny guy.

Speaker 9 (49:26):
True story, we used to do a sink of de
Mayo guacamole contest. We should bring it back. But back
in the day before Covid when people used to like
share food, Covid sort of killed the guacoff.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
We used to do a guacamoli.

Speaker 9 (49:38):
Contest and one year Rob Gronkowski showed up and he's like,
I got my own guawk.

Speaker 4 (49:44):
It's called gronk emly Bro. He presented gronk em Ole.

Speaker 1 (49:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (49:50):
Him and his beautiful girlfriend Camille Castik. They were both
on the show. We had a great time. So I
say that with love, another very personality driven NFL superstar.
So here's my ground question.

Speaker 9 (50:03):
He signs the one day contract with the Patriots to
be a New England Patriot forever. He talked about it,
he did it, and he was with Robert Craft.

Speaker 1 (50:13):
Take a listen. Is there no audio?

Speaker 4 (50:16):
Because I could say, hey, I'm a Patriot?

Speaker 1 (50:19):
Is there audio? Hey?

Speaker 4 (50:21):
Rom how about you played two days so we could
keep you against the Jets? They go okay, perfect, so
we could tell you what happened. He had a one
day deal with the Patriots, and then Krafft said can
you play? Can you do a two day deal so
you could play against the Jets for us? And Rich

(50:44):
in our pre show meeting said, hey, Covino, do you
think he could just go out there and sort of
rip it up. And I'm like, right now, without any preparation, no,
not a chance, not a chance about injury. They give
me a break. The guy hasn't done anything at game
speed in a few years. Rich swears, and I quote,
he'd go six for sixty yards.

Speaker 1 (51:06):
I think Gronk could.

Speaker 9 (51:07):
I think Gronk is still conditioned enough and knows the
game well.

Speaker 4 (51:10):
In the game condition is different, though. He knows that
he could hit the gym every day. But you haven't
done a full on sprint. Hey, Rich, you go to
the gym all the time. When's last time he did
a full on sprint? And in Sunday softball doesn't count.
We're talking NFL here.

Speaker 1 (51:26):
I fall on sprint.

Speaker 4 (51:28):
Yeah, because game, I mean muscles during a game. It's
gonna be way different than you doing a two point
nine mile per hour jog on the treadmill.

Speaker 9 (51:37):
All right, well, hold on now, no one does two
point nine unless you're weak ass like you.

Speaker 1 (51:41):
But my second point is.

Speaker 4 (51:42):
But I'm at a six point five incline, bro Gronky,
I'm not telling you to play a full season.

Speaker 9 (51:48):
I'm saying Gronk, he could go out there called he
may feel like asked the next day, but I think
Gronk could suit up, play against the Jets, catch six
for sixty against the Jets, and all of a sudden
you're like, oh, wow, like he could really turn it on.

Speaker 4 (52:01):
I think I'm not saying he can't. I'm saying it
would take like a good month two months to prepare
and get to that point where he could compete in
the NFL. You're really downplaying the level of fitness and
greatness that guys on the field currently are putting in Danny.

Speaker 9 (52:15):
J just based on his football IQ and playing all
those years, Super Bowl champion catching passes from Tommy catching tuddies.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
Rich was saying, cold right now, Yeah, No, I don't
think so.

Speaker 4 (52:25):
You don't think so.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
No, No, he's been away for too long, and he
was he was hobbling towards the end of his career.
He was a little bit of a decoy at the
very end.

Speaker 4 (52:35):
All of a sudden, you think he's just lighting it up.

Speaker 9 (52:37):
Well, hey, Rocky, I believe in you. I think you
could do it. I think I think we've seen.

Speaker 4 (52:42):
It's a fun question. It is. It's a fun question.
But I don't think so.

Speaker 7 (52:46):
Yeah, and two catches for twenty three yards maybe.

Speaker 4 (52:48):
Yeah, See that's even better than some tight ends in fantasy.

Speaker 1 (52:51):
So I'll take it.

Speaker 4 (52:54):
And in the world of fighting, Rich, I just got
to say, shame on everybody for downplaying the significance of
Christy Martin because no one's going to see that movie.
And Sydney Sweeney put all her heart and soul into
this project and nobody cares. And it's a big story.
And there's a lot of boneheads out there like Rich
who were downplaying her significance.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
And I was like, dude, I heard of her. Dude,
Well that's on you.

Speaker 4 (53:17):
She was a dominant female boxer in the Mike Tyson era,
fighting on those pay per views and breaking through in
female boxing. She was a pioneer. Man, she was the
best there was out there. So I understand, it's just
her fame didn't transcend. But it's like someone who the
fabulous Mulah, Get out him, Get out of my face,

(53:37):
Get out of my face. That's like saying pac Man
wasn't popular because you don't see him today, you know
what I mean. Like she was popular back then, her
fame just didn't transcend into today's world. It's like saying,
Ronda Ralsi wasn't big thirty years from now, It's like, yeah,
she was, Yo.

Speaker 9 (53:52):
Don't you say something so asinine as Ronda Rausi and
Christy Martin in the same conversation.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
I never said Christy Martin's asses a nine, but Sweeney
not too shabby? No, I said asinine? Oh asinine? What
is that? Just kidding? I'm joking God, But you know,
just because you're ignorant of her career or don't know
who she was, doesn't make the fact that she was
a prominent figure in the world of boxing not true.

Speaker 9 (54:16):
What she was guess what, Pally, Her story hasn't really
been told, so maybe Sidney Sweeney is the person to
do it.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
But go around the studio. If I'm the only ass clown,
then call me the club.

Speaker 9 (54:26):
But Sam, Danny g Dan Bayer, were you that familiar
with the career in life of Christy Martin before you
found out Sidney Sweeney was doing a movie.

Speaker 4 (54:34):
That's like saying you don't remember Butterbean. Butterbean was a
big deal.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
Yeah, I actually do. And I'm not saying this because
of the Cavino guy. But she was the only female boxer.

Speaker 4 (54:43):
She was the only one that anyone cared about, and
women were like, damn, man, this girl kicks ass.

Speaker 1 (54:49):
I remember the female American Gladiators more well.

Speaker 4 (54:51):
I remember I was big fan of Blaze myself.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
I remember the Glow.

Speaker 4 (54:54):
I remember the gorgeous ladies of wrestling. I watched Glow wrestling.
You also the biggest bonehead here. You are making fun
of Gronkowski. You you think that just anything that you know
is fact, and that's it. Anything that happened before you
or your knowledge didn't count or never happened. That doesn't
make it true. That's a good point, but that doesn't
make it true. So anyway, that's also a big story

(55:17):
that rich and I were fighting about on our Patreon
early today. But since boxing's in the news with Anthony Joshua,
wanted to bring that up. I was, Sam, what's up?

Speaker 1 (55:24):
I have three takes I must make.

Speaker 11 (55:26):
I'm just champion at the bit here, I only knew
about butter Bean through Jackass.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
Gotta be honest, he was guessing.

Speaker 4 (55:31):
But you're also a little younger, Sam, Yeah, you're in
your thirties, dude, barely done, almost done with that.

Speaker 11 (55:38):
And then also you said the Assac joke that's I
think that's an old Jeff fox Worthy blue collar comedy tour.

Speaker 4 (55:44):
Are you calling me a Carlos Smithcia because I just
remember him saying foreign Now, I don't know. I don't
follow blue collar comedy.

Speaker 1 (55:55):
This is an old joke from that tour.

Speaker 11 (55:56):
But I want to say that I read an article
about this movie that this the company that was in
charge of distributing and kind of promoting it just did
not do a good job of letting people know hello.

Speaker 4 (56:07):
And she was part of a giant controversy with the
stupid gene, so that overshadowed it.

Speaker 11 (56:11):
Also, the company that was supposed to advertise it and
promote it did not do a great job.

Speaker 4 (56:17):
And uh, let me let me ask you us. I
said this to Rich, I said, what Jake Lamata? Everyone
was so well versed in Jake Lamada. No, but Raging
Bow was still a great movie, you know, and Robert
de Niro was in it. A good movie is gonna
be a good movie. Maybe it's not that good of
a movie. I don't know. But her story, her legitimacy
in boxing, should not be.

Speaker 11 (56:36):
Under And also one more thing, you guys, I only
knew about her because you guys had been tipped off
that she was going to be in this movie. He
was in the works, and so we started talking about her.
I didn't know who she was, but I also didn't
know who like the guy in Cinderella Man was And
that's a great movie.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
James. I said to me, Broaderick, what's James? What the
hell is the name?

Speaker 4 (56:55):
He did the he built the Goffels Bridge. Why am
I trying to Matthew Broderick, No.

Speaker 1 (56:59):
James, that Hell's his name? James Braddock? James Braddock.

Speaker 11 (57:04):
Yeah, And so like you don't have to know about
these people j brad from the history books. But if you,
if a movie tells you about it, that's the whole
point of the movie.

Speaker 4 (57:10):
Yeah, Rich is like Rich's stances. Nobody knows her. What
do you know about Shaq Lamada?

Speaker 1 (57:15):
What did you know about James J Braddick? Nothing? Absolutely nothing.
So that's not it.

Speaker 4 (57:20):
It's bad publicity, and it's the fact that she got
bad press and no one promoted this enough.

Speaker 9 (57:25):
Hey, bang your head against the wall and maybe you'll
clear up some of those cob webs or something that's
going on. Because I said to you early today, I'll
say it again. If this movie was on Netflix, you
know HBO Max who was on Prime. It's a great
like ooh documentary about a female boxer. I might not
know that much about, Oh Sidney Sweeney and those you
know her speedbags.

Speaker 4 (57:46):
I'm watching You said, you said you because nobody knows
Christy Martin, because you actually what you said, because you
don't know Christy Martin. You and you think you're the
be all end all because you didn't know her. That's
why nobody cares. And I'm telling you I watched a
movie about Frankenstein last night. You think I care about Frankenstein?
Since when is that the reason you watch something?

Speaker 1 (58:07):
What do you watch about Frankenston?

Speaker 4 (58:08):
There's so many good shows on you.

Speaker 1 (58:10):
There's new movie on Netflix.

Speaker 4 (58:11):
It's actually pretty good.

Speaker 1 (58:13):
Well, you know, I'm about to fly home.

Speaker 4 (58:14):
Tonight anyway, fran gear Mo del to Yeah big, So
it's really good. Yeah, But I'll tell you what. I
don't want to harp too much on it because we
still got to talk Gronkowski. And our guy Mike is here.
Our guy Mike is here. He's a busy guy. He
don't have time to waste, and he wants to drop
some wisdom on. Hold on, Mike's a guy that knows
a lot who you know, Big Micro runs his place there.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
He is.

Speaker 4 (58:39):
Everybody watched and thinks we have Rick from Pond stars on.

Speaker 9 (58:42):
I tell you you know, Mike, our buddy Shay at
Fox Sports Radio. He was hanging on our Patreon the
other day and we brought up Peter Peter Gammons looking
like Philip Drummond from of course Different Strokes, and he
didn't know the story, like see the little guy you know.
Gary Coleman goes, yeah, I've heard of him. I go,

(59:02):
you know, he's famously known for a sea blocking Big Mic.

Speaker 1 (59:07):
Now now now no, sorry, absolutely story.

Speaker 4 (59:10):
Mike, do you know the Do you know much about
Christy Martin before the stock Yeah?

Speaker 15 (59:14):
Actually I was way into Christy Martin back in the
end of the day. She was a trail blazer and
absolutely in the news.

Speaker 7 (59:20):
I knew all about her.

Speaker 4 (59:22):
She was on the cover of magazine, she was everywhere.
She was the it girl, except you know that story
sort of fizzled when the eighties went away.

Speaker 9 (59:29):
Well, you and Kevino could go together cut a hole
in the popcorn box for all I care.

Speaker 4 (59:32):
All right, Well, hey, just because you don't know, it
doesn't make it true.

Speaker 15 (59:35):
We're not a Saturday night life skit.

Speaker 4 (59:36):
Okay, okay, And if you don't know, how about you
go and watch and learn something.

Speaker 11 (59:41):
Reaching a box over here so you know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (59:43):
Anyway, your thoughts at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Now is your chance. We do this every Wednesday. Your
chance to take home some ceing our goodies. Some prizes
are nerf CNR on FSR turbo football and if you
could repeat Mike's Wednesday words of wisdom verbatim, you win.

Speaker 9 (01:00:02):
You know, these turbo footballs, I feel like they're the
type where you know, like back of the day when
your kid, You're like you, I could throw this seventy yards.

Speaker 1 (01:00:08):
It's a nice one. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
This one has a nice crip and nice weight to it.

Speaker 1 (01:00:11):
So all right, Mike, it's all you.

Speaker 6 (01:00:16):
It's time for the guy that runs this place.

Speaker 8 (01:00:18):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.

Speaker 1 (01:00:22):
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.

Speaker 6 (01:00:28):
It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday.

Speaker 15 (01:00:34):
Sports do not build character, They reveal it.

Speaker 4 (01:00:44):
Man that's an easy, breezy one. No repeats, no repeats
on that one. If you can't repeat that verbatim, you're
a bonehead.

Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 15 (01:00:51):
One of my favorite of all time. That's a good one, absolutely,
one of my favorite of all time, being a sports fan,
always played sports my whole life growing up. It's so
true it hurts.

Speaker 9 (01:01:01):
Hey, Mike, can you feel about Damn Bayer adamantly denying
you run this place?

Speaker 1 (01:01:06):
I don't.

Speaker 15 (01:01:07):
I don't think we need to get into the issues
between me and Dan Byer right now.

Speaker 1 (01:01:10):
Okay, I mean we've.

Speaker 15 (01:01:12):
Been we've been working together for decades, literally decades.

Speaker 4 (01:01:15):
No, I watched you know that, Mike. The minute we
brought that up. Yeah, Mike runs his place. Dan was
the quickest to shoot. That's not surprising. Absolutely does not
surprise me at all. I know there's a long history there,
so that's why. But he did not hesitate.

Speaker 8 (01:01:28):
You guys walk in all new and stuff, and I'm
like that, he must be the guy that runs things.
And I blame both of you actually for perpetuating this lie.

Speaker 4 (01:01:40):
It's become a thing. Dan. I refuse to dignify any
of that with the response. You know, I'm sticking with it.
I'm sticking with the story for all right. So the
numbers eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. If you
think you could repeat that verbatim. Look at the clock.

Speaker 1 (01:01:56):
It is time to go old school, because we're old fools.
Let's go. There's a certain.

Speaker 7 (01:02:02):
What we gonna do is go back.

Speaker 6 (01:02:07):
Back into time, throwing it back. For a Thursday, old
school went fifty hits. That's fifty after cn R give
you the time capsule topic and we reminisce together.

Speaker 4 (01:02:18):
Yeah, so we do this every Thursday. We get you involved.
Fox Sports Radio Nations. So beat Nyland eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox because we throw it back, we
reminisce and we put our noggets together. We saw this article.
We didn't read it. We saw this article. Danny G
read it from the Wall Street Journal articles. Do you
mean you read a meme?

Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
I read the meme.

Speaker 4 (01:02:40):
Danny G read the article. It really is from the
Wall Street Journal. I'm not making this up. And the
whole story, in a nutshell, is that young consumers. If
we all have young people in our life, teenagers, nieces, nephews,
if you know some young'in's.

Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
I got a sixteen year old daughter.

Speaker 4 (01:02:57):
Young consumers are ditching smart technology for old technology. That's
a trend, it's a phase.

Speaker 1 (01:03:03):
They're gonna be like, I don't want to flip phone,
I want my iPhone back.

Speaker 4 (01:03:07):
In the article says gen Z's unplugging, swapping smartphones for
flip phones, CDs, and early two thousands digital cameras in
a bid to take back control. Says that the movement
is spreading across campuses and TikTok where nostalgia meets rebellion.
Even artists like Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and Loofy are

(01:03:27):
fueling the throwback trend with physical media releases. Owning something
real has become a new counter culture. There's always culture
then counter culture. And I see firsthand some absolute truth
to this in the form of vinyl.

Speaker 1 (01:03:42):
My daughter has vinyl. She doesn't even have a record player.
She has vinyl.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
She has Frank Ocean albums, New Depftones, whatever comes out,
she wants the vinyl.

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
Yeah, she has a digital camera.

Speaker 4 (01:03:53):
I had to ask spot, hey, spine, you got an
old digital camera. And they like the old, grainy, crappy,
pixelated quality of that camera because it feels old.

Speaker 1 (01:04:03):
School and nostalgic.

Speaker 7 (01:04:04):
I think it's artsy.

Speaker 1 (01:04:05):
They do.

Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
Yeah, and not only does my daughter like it, all
her friends think is the coolest thing and they want
to borrow a music. I love it firsthand.

Speaker 1 (01:04:13):
Who doesn't level polaroid?

Speaker 11 (01:04:14):
You get that physical and it comes out a little
like Grainny is just saying, what is fuzzy nostalgic about it?

Speaker 9 (01:04:21):
And very trendy, Like I've been to weddings or family
parties and stuff. Yeah, where they have the photo booth
where you get the little strip of pictures or her
or they have Polaroid cameras around the party.

Speaker 4 (01:04:33):
Your daughter's having her sweet sixteen coming up.

Speaker 1 (01:04:35):
Yeah, don't remind me. Are you gonna throw those.

Speaker 9 (01:04:37):
Like disposable yellow cameras on the table code I'm not.

Speaker 1 (01:04:41):
It's not a bad idea, but they're not cheap anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:04:43):
But when getting the photo booth for her party, yeah,
it had to have tangible photos, like you don't want
just the digital link or you don't want to email
to you like it was a priority that. No, they're
printed out and we want them because kids want that stuff.
It's kind of refreshing when you think about because I
think we've gone to digital where it's like even our

(01:05:03):
photos of our kids and digital, what are they sitting
a folder somewhere you never see them ever? I get that,
but I feel like, listen, it's like a nice little
once in a while throwback, like, oh, look a Polaroid camera.
But what are you rather a Polarid camera or your
iPhone that has the sweetest camera, or even an Android?
The only good thing about Androids, sorry, is that it

(01:05:24):
has a great camera. Do you really want to trade
that in for your Nokia flip phone that had a
whack and Cara technology is just as good. In fact,
a lot of it comes out before Apple technology.

Speaker 1 (01:05:35):
No, I'm saying they have a good camera. They have
a great camera.

Speaker 4 (01:05:37):
I said that, but based on that, based on the
tangible nostalgia that young people are rebelling for, what is
some old technology that you think needs to come back.
I think younger people love the idea of and I
say this real, they love the idea of like the
eighties and nineties, because there was technology, but it wasn't

(01:05:57):
really there yet.

Speaker 9 (01:05:58):
That's why young kids every they like read did Nintendo?
We could download these old Nintendo games and you know,
it had one hundred games on this little console, Like.

Speaker 4 (01:06:06):
People love that stuff, but permanently.

Speaker 9 (01:06:10):
It's a fun throwback the same way you'd be like,
wait a minute, mom, but that's an eight track player,
and then after many be like that's cool, I'm gonna
go back to my CT.

Speaker 4 (01:06:17):
But the life they're living is a little soulless. It
really is. It's like too digital. And you know what,
I'm glad you brought up video games, so I'm gonna
talk more about that so old school tech that you
want to make a comeback based on this, we'll get
to it next, could be know and rich. It makes
sense to me because I think they live in a

(01:06:38):
world of soulless art. Like just think of all the
AI either're surrounded by and the music they listen to.
It's soulless. It's heartless. These digital pictures, yeah they're great.
Even the video games. Yeah, they look amazing and they're
they're they're very interactive and you're so involved in them,
but like they're not that. I don't know, they're fun,
but you get lost in them. It's not it's line fun.

(01:06:58):
It's like all tra and no base. Everything is digital,
no analog in their life right exactly, And I feel
like you need that little bit of tangible analog in
your life to bring you a centered and make you
feel like a real person, not a little wooden boy,
not a robot boy.

Speaker 1 (01:07:16):
You don't want to be a little robot boy. I've
always said that.

Speaker 4 (01:07:18):
But no, listen, no one wants to get off their
lazy ass, put on their shoes, drive their car to
Blockbuster and do all that. But there is something to
be said about what we used to feel when we
would do that right. You would get your snacks, dude,
you'd get your You know, yes, it's fun to make
a Spotify playlist, it's amazing, But you know what was

(01:07:41):
really cool the art of making your own playlist on
a MEMORYX. Yeah, my eighty six megamix that I made,
and I would hand it off to my friends and girlfriends,
and you'd put a lot of hard into that, and
it meant Remember in the in the late nineties, you
were in high school or college, you'd burn a CD.
Things mean for a girl or something like, dude, get it.
Living in a digital world, things start to mean less

(01:08:03):
because it's just so.

Speaker 1 (01:08:04):
Easy to get.

Speaker 4 (01:08:06):
For instance, you used to make someone like a montage
or a slide show. It meant you put work and
time into it. Now, like you could go to your
phone and go to your photos and like Apple puts
together it's own little music video for you. Like exactly,
you lose the you lose that touch now to prove
what you're saying about the kids wanting some tangible like
I want to I want to touch the product. Due

(01:08:27):
my daughter is kind of like famous in her circle
of friends because she has spots. Spot was kind enough
to give it to me. Old school digital camera. I
am not kidding you. It's like when she comes home
from a party, all the kids wait for her to
upload the photos so they can get the old school
feel of a digital photo. Well, you know what, the
what the fun of the old school cameras? There's something great.

(01:08:48):
It's not as high the cack is what we get now.

Speaker 9 (01:08:51):
I think even those yellow disposable cameras we spoke of,
I believe was it special Metascalco that does the bit
where you'd be at the you were at the Warium,
Shamou would jump out of the water.

Speaker 4 (01:09:06):
And the whole joke is like you take a picture
and you're like, hey, I hope I got it. Hope
I got that one, like you didn't know?

Speaker 9 (01:09:12):
And remember, like, I hope no one blinked their eyes
in the photo. You'd go through the you'd go pick
the pictures up in the you know, CBS.

Speaker 4 (01:09:18):
So this one's got red eye. Yeah, I hope that
you got a good picture.

Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
There was always one or two where it was your finger.
Yeah the way or weird.

Speaker 4 (01:09:25):
Now kids could take fifty selfies until they get just
the right one. So maybe they yearn for that old
school spontaneity and unknowing it's it's it becomes boring after
a while. So the story was young consumers are ditching
smart technology for old technology. Well, and we're seeing it firsthand.
So we're asking you Fox Sports Radio Nation to get
involved and say, well, if that's the trend, you know,

(01:09:47):
it needs to come back.

Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
What else needs to come back? Well, guess what?

Speaker 4 (01:09:51):
Uh, she's the biggest pop star on the world, Taylor Kelsey.
By the way, do you think she's gonna take his
name when they do get married. Imagine she did that
and all of a sudden, like the traditional last name
was the thing again. What if he took her left? Yeah,
Travis Swift, Travis Swift, Oh what a lame o.

Speaker 9 (01:10:08):
So Travis Kelsey fiance Taylor Swift the biggest pop star
and Planet Earth is the top selling vinyl album of
the century. Her album nineteen eighty nine did well, but
the twenty twenty five album that just came out this year,
The Life of a Show Girl, has sold Get This

(01:10:29):
Get This over a million vinyl copies in its first week,
So slready the platinum, the most copies of a vinyl
record since the early nineties, since nineteen ninety one. So
the idea of these young kids, these young women that
I want the tailor Swift tangible. I want to be
able to touch the album and the inserts and everything.
So hey, you could say it's Taylor Swift, or you

(01:10:49):
could say that this generation does crave some of that
old school feel.

Speaker 1 (01:10:53):
It's also didn't she release like twenty five different versions
of that same album just to kind of pad the number. Yes, Yes,
different versions and everyone, Yeah, that's just great.

Speaker 7 (01:11:03):
Mark Star.

Speaker 4 (01:11:05):
I wanted to just you know, that was corny, but
Richard he mentioned it my number one answer here because
I really believe there's some truth to this. Like my brother,
my brother Tommy said he was up till five am
the other day playing a new game called Arc Raiders
on Xbox. And of course Ryan McBain who works here
Big Time Gamer, always doing his thing.

Speaker 11 (01:11:24):
Wow, you know one of his lesser known nicknames, Ryan McBain,
Papa Bear Smith, Papa Bear Smith.

Speaker 4 (01:11:29):
He's way into the gaming world. I feel like if
young people really gave the games we played a chance,
they would actually appreciate the fun that they had playing them,
you know what I mean, Like there's a different kind
of fun. I'm not saying that our games are better.
I'm not, because clearly they are not.

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
It was a.

Speaker 4 (01:11:47):
Different level of fun. If they gave him a chance,
I would love them to see. You know, some of
the games we played. I know they I know they
see them. Some of them had forard with them.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
Some of them had to be more creative because the
technology is not advanced.

Speaker 7 (01:12:02):
With the graphics and everything we see nowadays.

Speaker 4 (01:12:05):
They gave him a chance, they realize why we liked it. Yeah,
but I think they're gonna also realize how much better
they have it now. You know what, I have an
example of all this. But let's go to Dan Byer
because there's an NFL story he needs to break.

Speaker 6 (01:12:19):
Breaking news from Fox Sports San Francisco.

Speaker 8 (01:12:22):
Forty nine ERSA coach Kyle Shanahan says that Brock Party
will start Sunday at Week eleven against the Arizona Cardinals.
It'll be Perty's third game of the season, as he's
been out with that toe injury. His first game since
playing against Jacksonville in late September. Rock Party back for
the Niners this Sunday in Arizona.

Speaker 4 (01:12:39):
Rock Perty went on to say, I had to do
it from a boy, Rich Davis, see you Sunday, bro On.
How fitting is this though? We call this the Cavino
and Rich effect. Thank you, Dan Byer. You know why
we were there for his first ever game. We were
there when Groppolo went down, Bert Perdy came in. The
rest was history, So of course he's gonna play.

Speaker 1 (01:12:56):
When we're there. We were there for the beginnings.

Speaker 4 (01:12:59):
We were there when I Danny G says, I sort
of stalked him out in the stairwell of the sort
we're at a VIP party. Who is playing Danny G?
One of your favorite country stars?

Speaker 1 (01:13:09):
It was Luke Combs.

Speaker 4 (01:13:10):
Luke Combs, I saw Brock Pardy go down a stairwell
with his beautiful now wife.

Speaker 10 (01:13:14):
Yeah, in his boots and I was like, Brock, Brock,
you made it to you chased him. I heard your
feet in the stairwell. He said, it's me, Jessica.

Speaker 1 (01:13:26):
It was Party.

Speaker 7 (01:13:27):
Turns around. He had fear in his eyes.

Speaker 4 (01:13:30):
Rich I thought to look at his eyes, was like, yo,
it's me, my boy. Who are you?

Speaker 1 (01:13:37):
He goes, I'm you twenty years from now.

Speaker 4 (01:13:39):
So Brock Purty and I had a nice moment. Danny
g was quick to tell him, don't worry. He's a
Fox Sports host, He's not a psycho.

Speaker 9 (01:13:47):
Thanks Danny and I had a nice little moment with
Brock Purdy and uh, you know now he's going to
be there when we're there Sunday, So thank you, Brock.

Speaker 4 (01:13:54):
That's really cool.

Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
Rich.

Speaker 11 (01:13:55):
Are you a little worried though that? Like you change
a horse mid stream here and he's gonna come back?
Can he's be super rusty like you've been winning with
Mac Jones? And I listened, they paid Brock Party put
him back in place. But are you a little worried
about it? Well, guess what you're not gonna do with
Mac Jones. To be honest, you're not going to go
anywhere in the playoffs. Rock Pretty mac Jones are similar.
Rock Party could move around the pocket.

Speaker 9 (01:14:15):
I don't know with his turf toe, but rock Party
and Mac Jones have a similar skill set advantage Brock
Party that he actually has a ton more mobility as
a guy that watches the Niners weekend and week out.

Speaker 1 (01:14:26):
That's the big difference maker.

Speaker 4 (01:14:28):
And you have to factor in they were in no
rush or urgency to put him in, so he has
to be he has to be close to one hundred percent.

Speaker 6 (01:14:37):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:14:37):
Let me text Ricky Piercell and see if he's on
board too, since we're going on.

Speaker 1 (01:14:40):
That's what's up RP. Yeah, let him know.

Speaker 4 (01:14:42):
So thank you DV for the breaking news. Nik Dan
back back to you know, kids Nowaday? Did I just
say kids Nowaday? Punch now a day? Oh punch me.

Speaker 1 (01:14:51):
He's in on like my grandpa kids Nowaday.

Speaker 4 (01:14:54):
Well, but there's some old school technology that would be cool,
and then other ones like they were really never cool,
Like they don't don't need mini discs, they don't need
palm pilots, like what would be cool for them to experience?
They don't need a beeper, right, you know? But you know,
how about.

Speaker 2 (01:15:08):
Oger overall, you guys an arcade because yeah, I know
we got Dave and Busters and but we don't have
those the line of eighties arcades and early nineties arcades
that we had there was just something special.

Speaker 11 (01:15:23):
Tickets, Yeah, the tickets you get in then you go
cash into the price counter. How about pinball machines are
really old school analog pin ball machines are like a
collector's item now because they people want to put them
in their bars, like the retro are barcades.

Speaker 9 (01:15:36):
You know, I want the Rocky, the Rocky one that
PAULI threw a bottle of whiskey through.

Speaker 1 (01:15:40):
I like that answer.

Speaker 4 (01:15:42):
Watch when I get some day when we have Dan
dan Byer money, Dan Patrick money, and Dan Byer money.
I hope to have a man cave and I can't
wait to get a pinball machine like.

Speaker 11 (01:15:53):
A led Zeppelin pin There's all kinds of pinball machines
and Ozzy Osbourne pinball machine like all kinds of cool stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:15:58):
Well, I do think, well, while these things are great,
because I agree the arcade is cool. Maybe the idea
of going up to an NBA jam Gamer Street Fighter
and having that big video game in front of you
that's cool. But when I'm playing MLB the show twenty
five with my son and then I look at like
bases loaded. I mean, what are we doing? I think

(01:16:21):
is more fun than all them. It's not though you
can say that, you could say that all that doesn't
look as cool, but I feel like it's more fun.
It's not.

Speaker 1 (01:16:29):
I promise you it's not.

Speaker 9 (01:16:30):
But I do think there's some novelty and the cool
idea of like, yo, I want to go into an
arcade like you used to dad, that's a great day
out with your kids, and especially you know what these
kids do.

Speaker 4 (01:16:39):
You know, it was a big influence even on my kid,
like watching Stranger Things and watching these kids on Netflix
live in the eighties. It's a different sense of freedom
and a different like experience of life and camaraderie that
they had that they saw from that show and they
hear from our stories that they sort of yearned for.
And I think technology took that away. Social media made

(01:17:00):
them more anti social. So now they're rebelling toward things
that are more tangible and more real.

Speaker 1 (01:17:05):
The pendulum always swings.

Speaker 2 (01:17:06):
I like what Rich said, but why can't we marry
the two generations together? For instance, I missed my game
Boy because it had the many cartridges I could. I
physically had a collection of the cartridges. Now you have
to download all the games. What if we had your
brand new MLB game in a little cartridge and my

(01:17:28):
little son Coach could collect.

Speaker 1 (01:17:29):
The cartridges but marry the three married.

Speaker 7 (01:17:32):
Yeah, so you can have both experience.

Speaker 4 (01:17:34):
So it feels it looks new, but it has the
feel of old school technology. That's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (01:17:40):
Yeah. You know, my thought is that it's all fun
in little short doses. Like long term. I don't think
anyone wants to mixing it up.

Speaker 11 (01:17:48):
Maybe you have like your really advanced video games, like
what was it MLB the show you're playing with your son, Yeah,
and then you have like an old school pinball machine
or do you guys remember that game called feed Big
Bird where you would throw balls into this mouth of
this woman and then this little fan would blow her
dress up. Actually, yeah, you get the tickets back and
she the more you hit her little like thing in

(01:18:09):
the back of her throat, it would you would get
points and tickets.

Speaker 1 (01:18:12):
Like I just remember that. I'm like, that's man, I
wish we could do that again.

Speaker 4 (01:18:15):
You know what I would love to subject my kid
to and other kids like a day without their phone
and like use a regular phone, just to see them
doing that experience, like rolling rolling around the house with
the extra long wire.

Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
I'd be great. Wait, you know, I'm gonna look this up,
and but I'm sure they would.

Speaker 4 (01:18:31):
I would love for them to deal with it. You
know how you were saying the other day, your brother
didn't answer the phone and everyone was like searching for him. Yeah,
we thought he died, because you know when someone doesn't that.
He was a no show at work and scared the
hell out of everybody. My wife just called me mid
show and I was like, oh, because then your stomach
drops right.

Speaker 1 (01:18:49):
I don't know. She's like, how do we pay the
pool guy? Again? That was the That was the question.

Speaker 4 (01:18:54):
So like nowadays you're so accessible that if someone calls
you during weird time, you freak out.

Speaker 1 (01:18:58):
I saw an article. I gotta find this. Hello, huh,
why are you calling me? My daughter? I can text?

Speaker 4 (01:19:06):
My daughter asked me, because she saw home flowers. My
daughter saw home phones on like an older show she
was watching. She goes, how did you know who was calling?
And I said, buddy, that was the fun of it
well until we got color Idea, but before that, because
remember the whole like you do be excited, you'd be
like hello, and then it was there was a fun
to it. You know what, though, based on this tangible

(01:19:29):
you might see an increase in DVD sales, Blu Ray
sales or something like that, because I mean, growing up,
that was part of your cribs experience.

Speaker 1 (01:19:39):
Yo.

Speaker 4 (01:19:39):
You had Scarface, you had the box set, you had
Blood and Blood Out on DVD. You had your favorites
American history acts, Goodfellas, you had all your favorite Kang movies.
You had them, but you own them, and it felt
different than like, yeah, I got him downloaded on my phone,
because you actually had it and wanted to feel it
and you could play it whenever you wanted. Maybe we'll
see a little comeback of that. I'll tell you what.

Speaker 16 (01:20:00):
I know.

Speaker 4 (01:20:00):
There's no real value in compact discs, but I built
my career on those, so I kept like maybe like
a thousand of them. That meant a lot to me,
and I have them still in racks but in storage.
My daughter says she wants them for her like retro
rooms someday, you know, because there's something about not only
do I have it in my phone in some digital
file fold or whatever, but I have this actual pistor

(01:20:25):
of it. Yeah, does that be Yeah, it doesn't even
have to be vinyl or anything. It's just it's just
a piece of something you could hold and it's yours.
Can I tell you?

Speaker 9 (01:20:32):
I googled this because we can in twenty twenty five
technology that we can't neglector realize is great now.

Speaker 7 (01:20:40):
But I heard it started in twenty ten.

Speaker 4 (01:20:43):
Me that's before that there was no Internet. It's from
the Patreon as I just said, Yeah, so listen to this.
I just googled landline trend because I know that I
don't know if it's a shark tank item or someone
created recently, like a landline with a cord and everything
that goes through your internet. So it's like not old
school but it and it's a way to have your

(01:21:06):
kids properly learn how to communicate, pick up the phone
and be like, hello, oh, how are you. Here's what like,
there's there's a new home phone trend. But by just
simply googling that, every website on planet Earth, there's like
twenty articles that pop up right away about the re
emergence of landlines, and it's simply because millennial parents are

(01:21:26):
reclaiming the landline for their kids. A lot of you
it's the younger generation they're or they're wanting this, But
wasn't There also a recent study where there's a lot
of young people missing out on job opportunities because they
have anxiety of answering the phone, like they have no
communication skills where they're like I don't know what to
do and it could be dealing with conversations with a

(01:21:46):
future employee and just doing job interviews.

Speaker 1 (01:21:49):
I mean to help them build they look at this.

Speaker 9 (01:21:53):
There's articles from everything from the Today Show millennial moms
talk about getting home phones to teach your kids independence.
Fox did a thing about why some parents are getting
landlines for their kids. Land lines on the Major comeback
as families find a way to bond. The dumbest phone
is the dumb phone is now parenting genius a new
article in the Atlantic. So you know, you know what

(01:22:14):
else should come back? I got one what he got
the boom box?

Speaker 14 (01:22:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:22:18):
I see a lot of dudes too, like walking around
the mall with speakers or whatever. But like, if you're
gonna walk around a mall, it's what a speaker, you
might as well hold the boombox. Are you surprised that,
all right, give me some good like bows or sons?
Or are you surprised that someone hasn't done a cool,
repical boombox yet, like a white like a Bluetooth.

Speaker 2 (01:22:37):
Oh, there's a company called bump Box out of Stockton, California,
and your Niners they run out, oh for every home
game carrying the big bump Box.

Speaker 4 (01:22:44):
Big Tree Williams loves that. But I'm surprised there's not more.
You're like a instead of just your typical bows or
Sono's nice wireless speaker that it's shaped like an old
school boombox. Yeah, I could see that coming back again
because they they look at this stuff and they think
it's cool. Why wouldn't it Everything else is coming back.
These kids are dressing like we did in the nineties.

(01:23:06):
It's all coming back. It makes sense, and a lot
of it makes sense. Like I said, let's get to
the phones now, get you involved technology that you could
see coming back, that you would like to see come
back based on the trend eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox, We'll start with alex Florida, what's up Alex.

Speaker 13 (01:23:24):
Greater Nation. Well, I'm kind of on time, but I
read a very interesting article yesterday regarding the total amount
of hours that every person has been on call of
duty is greater than the ton of existence of mankind.
I can't wrap my head around it. I'll hang up
the phone and I'll wait for your answer.

Speaker 4 (01:23:45):
So if you add up the hours that all of
the people, there's no way is that real?

Speaker 1 (01:23:51):
That the source? No, it could be. It could be
an anonymous source.

Speaker 9 (01:23:55):
If there's millions of people, say, I'm thinking about it.
If there's millions of people say that have log days
and days and days and days on call.

Speaker 11 (01:24:02):
Of duty, and our population has grown over time, and
let's say it's out numbering how many people were here,
like ten thousand years.

Speaker 1 (01:24:08):
I don't know.

Speaker 11 (01:24:08):
I guess that makes sense. Maybe that's really hard to
wrap your head around, Alex. I'm to have it, and
it's kind of I don't have to have been edible before.

Speaker 4 (01:24:15):
Everythink that one an essential crisis over here all always
got a trip in Vegas, trip on thought a throwback Thursday.
There just seems to be a growing trend in the
younger generation sort of seeking out our old school technology.

Speaker 17 (01:24:30):
I got a couple of things. They thanks for taking
my call, no problem. So I used to love to
wait in line to get the new album or the
new cassette. But I'll tell you something that that's really cool.
My parents have real to real film of me as
a child, and that's a cool thing to watch when

(01:24:50):
you have to put that projector together and see that.
Maybe kids would enjoy that.

Speaker 1 (01:24:55):
Are you're running real fast like Babe Ruth around the bases? Yeah? See, yeah,
that's cool.

Speaker 7 (01:25:01):
Yeah, the sound of the reels moving was pretty cool.

Speaker 4 (01:25:06):
Thanks babe, Thanks babe, Thanks baby. Hey, thanks Trep. I
appreciate it, man, thanks for the call. Yeah, A lot
of this stuff is fun.

Speaker 1 (01:25:15):
To think.

Speaker 4 (01:25:15):
What else comes to mind? But they still haven't made
the technology these kids have.

Speaker 1 (01:25:19):
I get it.

Speaker 4 (01:25:19):
They just want to taste of because it's cool to them.
It's like, oh my god, this is how people used
to live and throw back and it's retro.

Speaker 11 (01:25:25):
An old rotary phone like it's so if you actually
know how to use it, it's fun. It's it takes
a while, but it's fun to dial the number and
you know, go to each number around the circle.

Speaker 2 (01:25:36):
I saved my CDs the same way Covino did. They're
also in my storage unit. Why don't new cars still
give you a secondary option of a CD player?

Speaker 4 (01:25:45):
I mean you might see that in the future if
this continues to be a trend, right otherwise, because there's
no need for there's no need with car play.

Speaker 2 (01:25:52):
Who are you going to tell me I can't listen
to my CDs anymore. We're the ones with the money
buying the cars most.

Speaker 4 (01:25:57):
Honestly customized with I mean, I'm not sure to be
company guy, but with the iHeart app, with serious X,
with Spotify, with Apple Music, and.

Speaker 11 (01:26:06):
It's kind of dangerous to be sweet. Remember you had
a CD changer in your trunk, all the six CD
changer you have.

Speaker 1 (01:26:14):
Now people are just fusing around with their cell phone
downloading anything to take your put your hands back on
the wheel while you're driving is probably for the best,
you know, So don't don't pick up your phone and
don't pick up a set.

Speaker 7 (01:26:25):
But also there's staples. Just leave it alone.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
Like remember there were car companies trying to take AM
off the new cars. Yeah, and that's where big companies
broadcasting companies like no, no, no, you're not taking AM
radio out of new cars you know.

Speaker 4 (01:26:41):
What else is leading the charge as far as nostalgia,
like old school watches, a Cassio watches. A lot of
people are leaning towards Zassle. Yeah, but any sort of
like you know, calculator, old school digital Cassio watch is
sort of a cool retro piece. Did anyone else have
the Casio watch where you could store your friend's phone
numbers in it?

Speaker 1 (01:27:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:27:00):
Mine dial the phone in the eighties. I always say
this and nobody believes me. In the eighties, you dream,
this is how it worked. They had look it up.
I had a little speaker on it. Right, it was
a Cassio watch, and it stored numbers and everything. But
you held the old school phone worked on tones, so
if it went do do do do do do do,
it would dial that number. Right, So all it would
do is like, you know, hey, rich In, Richard's phone

(01:27:22):
number would be in the watch. You click rich, but
you had to hold the phone up to the watch
and the watch would go dam d d D D
d du and it would dial rich just based on
the tones. CAF You know how the first Apple watch
in nineteen eighty eight, Dude, I had, I was like
inspector gadget bro in the eighties. Swear to god, it
was Marty McFly with the with the first You wouldn't
dial from the watch, the watch would dial your phone.

Speaker 7 (01:27:45):
That's cool.

Speaker 1 (01:27:45):
Yeah, you know.

Speaker 11 (01:27:46):
The first touch screen in a car was the nineteen
eighty six Buick Riviera. Oh wow, so that technology at
the time was never It was nowhere. But and people think, oh,
the touch screens are in cars now, it actually started
like forty years ago.

Speaker 7 (01:28:00):
We could tie this back to sports, was it?

Speaker 2 (01:28:02):
Kek Hernandez recently at the Dodger parade on one of
the buses with his little Yes it was.

Speaker 7 (01:28:08):
He busted out his little camquarder in the.

Speaker 4 (01:28:11):
Same campquorder that ALF had during the opening credits of ALF. No,
but I can see that making a comeback. Yeah, I
definitely could. And you know what Danny g you said,
like married, marrying the two worlds? You could digitize those things. Hey, Comino,
why do you tell your daughter that you're going to
cancel her expensive videographer for sweet sixteen? And I'm uncle
Rich'll be there with a camp corner. Don't worry, right, Rich,

(01:28:34):
didn't you get your call and oscby with a came quarter?

Speaker 1 (01:28:36):
I didn't true story.

Speaker 4 (01:28:37):
Went a beg Kevin McAllister Oldcat's nineteen eighties camp quarterer. Yeah, so, anyway,
the rest of your phone calls. Now it's time for
brain wait.

Speaker 1 (01:28:49):

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
