know what I feel? Is it a pet smart or
pet smart?

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Mark? It can't be both? Pick one. Same with public
and private.

Speaker 3 (00:59):
Either your public picking out there or your private and
you don't talk about it and you keep your you
know what I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:04):

bases in his illustrious nineteen year MLB career. How many
basses did David Ortiz deal in his career?

Speaker 4 (13:04):

Speaker 3 (13:32):
Wait to go, Will, great job, and yeah, I've fall
from multiple contests.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Anyway, I get like a small press you.

Speaker 1 (13:44):
Know what, Yeah, you know because you went to overtime.
So hang on the line.

Speaker 3 (13:48):
Okay, you don't get you know what, we'll just learned
a lesson. Know what that lesson is? You're never going
to get what you don't have. For Yeah, I saw
someone do the some seminar and they were in a
like a room and some guys like, hey, who wants
one hundred bucks?

Speaker 4 (14:00):
And he holds up one hundred dollars bill and.

Speaker 3 (14:02):
It was a gas I would Finally some woman walks up,
takes out of his hands and he's like, ah.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Action, I suppose I'll take that action. So there you go.
You can buy some gasoline, all right.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
A marketing teacher in high school, do that, mister bartone.
He went up to a student. He goes, hey, can
I have your shoe? And any kid gave him shoes
like see, like you know, you never know what you
get unless he asked for it and asked how he
learned the lesson.

Speaker 4 (14:25):
That stupid Yankees? How you have in your head?

Speaker 8 (14:27):
Yeah? What about it?

Speaker 4 (14:27):
I want to throw in the trash.

Speaker 3 (14:28):
Why Wow, jealous, jellous because my team's ten games under
five hundred and just got swept by the Rockies. Well, guys,
more baseball trivia tomorrow. Like the nag said, big Poppy
will be here and.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Broke broke Poppy.

Speaker 8 (14:43):
Broke Poppy.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
And speaking of sweeps, do you think the Thunder get
it done against the Suns tonight?

Speaker 4 (14:47):
Yes? Yeah, I too.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
Yeah, maybe a gentleman's sweep, give him one game. I
don't know, stay fresh. But they're just too good.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
I don't think the Sun's even on a good game
of win.

Speaker 7 (14:55):
Like even even when the Suns were making a little
bit of a run, it wasn't even like SGA that
was stopped the run. It was like the role players
for the Thunder that were stopping the run. That's how
deep that team is.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
Yeah, they they deep is a good word. Yeah, you
know what, you ain't kidding.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
And then Orlando has a two to one lead. They're
playing the Pistons again tonight.

Speaker 4 (15:13):
As well, have to rebound.

Speaker 3 (15:14):
Yeah, number one we star team in the East that
everyone loved.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
Huh, he's been showing up. The rest of the team
needs to do their part. And then Timberwolves and Nuggets.
Minnesota has a three to one lead.

Speaker 3 (15:27):
No, I mean, I hate to say, I don't want
the boss getting all butt hurt. I mean, but the
Nuggets have to win tonight, right, I mean, they're they're
big favorites at home.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
Devincinzo is out permanently, and of course we all know
what happened to Aunt Edwards. But the role players have
been stepping up big time for Minnesota, and the Nuggets
have fire in their belly right now. So that's a
game to watch tonight.

Speaker 4 (15:47):
Yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 3 (15:48):
Then, Uh, you know what I'm going through the Mets game.
They're five dollars tickets?

Speaker 8 (15:52):
Now do you see that?

Speaker 4 (15:53):
Maybe we touch on that tomorrow. What can you buy
a New York for five dollars?

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Apparently a Mets ticket now six dollars. Nuts for nuts
a bag of is all you can get near embarrassing,
did you And you were just saying off the air
that you saw that a clip of Soto sticking up
for Mendoza.

Speaker 4 (16:06):
The matter.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
Yeah, he's saying at the end of the day, beginning, middle,
and end of the day is you know, the players
got to perform. He's saying he's doing a great job.
So that's the other side story there. So yeah, with
that and big poppy trivia and more, we'll do that
Monyana on the show. If this Mets team ends up
the season under five hundred significantly, would that be the
most disappointing team in sports history, based on.

Speaker 4 (16:25):
Payroll, based on problem sports history? Maybe based on payroll
if they don't make the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Got a quick story about foul balls the etiquette involved.

Speaker 8 (16:38):
Yeah, Scottie and Honolulu wants to weigh in on this.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Yeah, there was a villainous moment in the Cleveland Guardians
game against the Rays yesterday.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
What's up, man, Hey, what's happening fell Let's.

Speaker 4 (16:49):
Tell you guys, good man, what's your story?

Speaker 13 (16:51):
Well, you know, like Danny Gey, I'm at lifelong Dodger fan.

Speaker 14 (16:55):
Dad grew up in Brooklyn, so I kind of inherited
the jeans and I got to stick my ten year
old son to his first game two years ago.

Speaker 10 (17:04):
The bullpen catcher turned to my boy right before the
game and tossed him directly a ball.

Speaker 14 (17:09):
Which he dropped, and I was crushed.

Speaker 10 (17:12):
You guys, look on.

Speaker 14 (17:13):
His face when he dropped the ball and saw it
go all the way into the underneath the stands and.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Some other kid get it.

Speaker 14 (17:20):
Oh ten minutes later, he came back and looked right
at my kid and chucked him a ball.

Speaker 10 (17:25):
So I just thought I'd share that.

Speaker 5 (17:27):
Super special moment for him, no doubt made me smile.

Speaker 3 (17:30):
Ear to hear, boys, awesome man, great to hear. Kind
of worked out because that sounded heartbreaking. Let me let
me take ten seconds before we played Big Toffee Trivia
to go over the hierarchy of catching a foul ball
Cleole green disorder, line drive snag number one, home run
snag number two, pop up snag number three. I think

(17:52):
after that there's a big dip, like if a ball
bounces and you catch it maybe on a.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
Bounce, that's one.

Speaker 3 (17:57):
Scrambling for a ball under a seat is the lowest
form of getting a foul ball?

Speaker 4 (18:01):
Would you agree?

Speaker 3 (18:02):
Yeah, I would say the lowest form of scrambling for
the ball still falling, and then your ass falling out
in the process, and then being all over social media.
I would say that you know what You're right, All right,
Let's play big puppy trivia.

Speaker 5 (18:16):

And seven Empires in a World Series game. Now was
I learned that today for the first time.

Speaker 3 (25:56):
In fact, you know, big Miku runs his place. Was
that that first World Series game?

Speaker 4 (25:59):
That first?

Speaker 8 (26:01):
I was gonna say who? But you made me laugh.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
I was gonna say that. Rob Parker claimed he covered it,
but we're all we're all those recovering baseball for I
got covered before they were MLB blows.

Speaker 16 (26:19):
I was there when it was a best of nine.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
So Celtics about to tip off. Huh.

Speaker 3 (26:27):
By the way, I hope you had a magic thunder
nugget sort of night last night.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
Oh, magic thunder nuggets? Can I get those from my kids? Yoh?

Speaker 3 (26:33):
Col loves magic thundernuggets. I'm sick of din of nuggets.
The magic thunder nuggets home. Yeah, but yeah, seventy six
or Celtics Super Mario toys. Yeah, I know right, Hawks, Knicks, Trailblazers, Spurs.

Speaker 4 (26:46):
Enjoy your NBA. You have one with Princess peaching it.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Two teams are fighting for their lives tonight. The Sixers
and the Blazers, Well, those.

Speaker 4 (26:53):
Are two series that should be wrapped up sooner than later.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
I think the one interesting one, Danny, besides Nicks Hawks,
which is that's gonna do that?

Speaker 4 (27:00):
That may go seven, right, I think the one is.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
The can the one seed Pistons battle back down three
to one? Like that's that was unexpected and you you
called it not to pat you on the back.

Speaker 4 (27:11):
We're not the type of show that's I told you so.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
But Danny's like, Yo, Caid Cunningham doesn't have a strong
number two.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
I said strong number two.

Speaker 3 (27:20):
And you were saying they play good defense, are a
good team, but you said you weren't expecting them to
really be that dominant in the postseason.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
That's why there's been rumors floating around about them. Anybody
would love getting honest, but especially Detroit. And the question is,
but would Giannis want to go to Detroit? And so
firing up, you got plans. Enjoy your basketball quick reminder tomorrow. Yeah,
Sammy sweetheart will be giving us mid week major.

Speaker 11 (27:44):
Dude, it's gonna be very efficient. I can't around, I
can't wait.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
And Big Michael runs his place. He's gonna give you
his take. We do Yep, Big Michael runs his take.
I'm sorry, I'm laughing. I'm looking at our Instagram page.
We posted a clip about page Beckers and Azy Fud
and their relationship and how they addressed it, and like,
would you put it out there? Should people be able

(28:08):
to ask you? And it's just so funny how right
out the gate some WNBA like feminist type of fan
win at Covino and then I love how Cavino takes
a bait and he goes back and forth. It's you
can't resist, can you? Because it's not from a judgmental place.
It's a business question. It's a fair question for anyone
to ask. Would you risk millions of dollars on someone
if they were in relations together to work for your company?

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Someone?

Speaker 6 (28:31):
Right?

Speaker 3 (28:31):
Someone?

Speaker 4 (28:31):
Someone? Logic?

Speaker 3 (28:33):
Someone wrote two grown as men speaking on s they
don't know you're loud and wrong, And I'm like, I
was counting down the second of like Cavino is going
to respond in three to two?

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Out there?

Speaker 3 (28:42):
It is so hey, leave comments, I'm hard to beat it.
Leave comments. Have some fun with us. Instagram Twitter TikTok
at Covin on retrone so get this.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
We've been talking about WNBN on this show for you
I know, right, I mean WNBA player told you I
don't know, I.

Speaker 4 (28:59):
Told you less. I thought the Dallas Wings was a
restaurant until they drafted.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
Is he fun So not a lot of buzz about
the third round of the NFL draft pick, even though
you know people are tuned in it's a big moment.

Speaker 4 (29:10):
But there was a story that sort of went under
the radar.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
And there's this guy from Penn State quarterback from Penn State,
Drew Aller, who grew up a Browns fan. So his
whole life, twenty years season take, his family were Browns fans.

Speaker 4 (29:25):
This kid was all about the Browns. God bless him.

Speaker 3 (29:29):
It wasn't bound to happen, and out of nowhere, he's
drafted by get this, the Pittsburgh Steelers. And what's funny
about it is he's waited it. You know, he's rooted
against them his whole life, like despised them his whole life.
But it's not even you know, you see everyone there
like real excited, like and the pick, you know, Drew
Aller for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he sort of reluctantly

(29:52):
refuses to put the hat on because it's in his
DNA to.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
Like hate this. That's like a Yankees fan.

Speaker 3 (30:00):
But even me, I was thinking about that, right, It's like,
you still want to make the league, you want to
be in the club, you want to fulfill your dream.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
It's like if I was drafted by the Red Sox.

Speaker 11 (30:09):
Yeah there guy a picture for the Red Sox who
was a Yankee fan online hate people.

Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah, yeah, Cam Schlitzler, there you go. He's like enemy
number one. He now says, you know, f you Boston idiots.
I'm a Yankee, like I do think you just you're proud.

Speaker 4 (30:25):
In that moment. You do it for your family, and
you're like.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Hey, I guess I'm I'm a Red Sox now, even
though your childhood dreams were with the Yankees. I am
so surprised by his dude's reaction. He doesn't put the
hat on. Immature reaction, it's wild. Nobody's standable.

Speaker 4 (30:44):
It was against his DNA, like he couldn't he couldn't
do it. It doesn't that it's fool. It's like it's
like Fonsie admitting he was wrong.

Speaker 8 (30:51):
It's like shock putting on a Celtics jersey.

Speaker 4 (30:54):
Danny, but he played for them.

Speaker 3 (30:55):
I'm saying like, as a fan, right, I'm a diehard
Niners fan. I love the forty nine Ers. I care
way too much about that stupid team. But if my son,
if Ben grows up to be a big dude. My
wife has uncles out are like six or five, So
I cruss my fingers every night. What if Ben gets
drafted in the NFL, they choose Ben Seattle Seahawks. All

(31:19):
of a sudden, I'm the biggest Seahawks fan. It's my kid.

Speaker 4 (31:22):
Fandom takes like such a drastic backseat to your kid.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
It's wild to see that my son was. If my
son was drafted by the Yankees, I'd put on pin
strips immediately and kick the mets of the curb. It's
my kid, Hey, Drew Aller, we're here to say it's
okay to put the Steelers hat on where we're pride.
I love it, And hey, you never know what's gonna
happen with Pittsburgh, even though they're saying that Aaron Rodgers
is most likely the guy.

Speaker 4 (31:48):
But I also want to give props to the shot clock.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
And Justin Morelli because not a lot of people covered
this story. It was in the third round and he
brought it to my attention, and it's pretty wild to
see because all his friends and family they're proud of him,
but he doesn't know what to do in that moment.
Imagine your childhood dream comes down to that moment and
it's the one team you didn't want. It's a really
interesting situation. Lean into it, buddy, congratulating. I'm trying to

(32:13):
find the guy. I'll never think of it because you know,
when you're looking for something on social media, what's the uh,
what's the theory?

Speaker 4 (32:18):
You can't find it? Yeah, I don't know the name
of the theory.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
There's a guy who's such a diehard, dumb Mets fan.
There was a story during a Mets broadcast where his
son plays for another team. He watches the Mets game
and then goes back and watches his son's.

Speaker 4 (32:32):
Highlights the other day. Yeah, that was a classic story.
Why watch your kid.

Speaker 6 (32:37):
Produce the microphone Assassin?

Speaker 4 (32:40):
It's time for Mike?

Speaker 6 (32:41):
Who runs this? Take who?

Speaker 19 (32:43):
Big Mike may get to be in charge of the segment,
but he still doesn't run this place. He really doesn't
even run this segment when you think about it, because
this Mike can be turned off by Sam at any moment.

Speaker 5 (32:52):
That may be true, but Big Mike does get to
pick the topic and then CNR offer their strong opinions
on it.

Speaker 6 (32:58):
Consider it a warm up to me in a week.
Mature Mike who rubs this take?

Speaker 4 (33:03):
All right?

Speaker 3 (33:04):
Mike, who's his place? Well, he runs his take and
you know what he said, Guys, I'm sitting out on
this take today. We said why because he wants to
give an opportunity to a guy he's worked with, the
guy we've all worked with for a long time. So
in for Mike who runs his take is burshie boy, jolly.

Speaker 9 (33:28):
Imperator that I was about to try to do a
Big Mike impersonation and it's it's not as good as
some of the others here.

Speaker 4 (33:35):
Do you have one?

Speaker 9 (33:35):
I would love to hear everyone has one.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
It always starts with that, though I really love DB's take.

Speaker 4 (33:50):
Is the best.

Speaker 9 (33:52):
You know who else doesn't go on veto does a
good Patrick will tell you that his is also in
the conversation, but it's not. It's okay, it's better than mine.
I'll give him that, all.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
Right, So hey, Ryan Bursch take it away.

Speaker 9 (34:07):
Well, thank you. Yes, Big Mike conceded his time to
meet today because I have a hot take. I got
a big hot take. Okay, Mike doesn't run this place.

Speaker 6 (34:16):
I do.

Speaker 9 (34:16):
Oh wow, And now it's all going to fall apart.
I'm I'm leaving. This is my last week at Fox
Sports Radio. I have been at FSR for over ten years.
I interned here in twenty fourteen. I was an intern
on Jmore Sports Wow, where I worked with Dan every day.
I worked with John Ramos every day. I worked with

(34:39):
Greg Twey every day, and from then on I got
hired after after I graduated college, and I've been here
ever since.

Speaker 4 (34:47):
Did you know Big Mike when he had hair?

Speaker 9 (34:49):
No? No, he Mike looked exactly the same day.

Speaker 4 (34:52):
He was always old. Yes. Yeah. Well, first off, before
you go any further, man, graduation, This is a journey here.

Speaker 3 (35:00):
Years at any place in today's world is one hundred
and ten years.

Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yeah, especially in this business. So congratulations.

Speaker 3 (35:06):
Have you seen so many people come and go and
you've maintained a you know, a great reputation here working
with Mike. That's a tough thing to do, so congrats
on that man wherever. Okay, well, good Lakers tickets or
that was.

Speaker 9 (35:18):
That was pre pre Yeah. Yeah, he had Genie buss
On as a as a guest one time when I
was interning, and like, I was like, oh, this is weird,
Like there's real chemistry here. And he was married at
the time, that wasn't prior to I was like, this
is odd.

Speaker 3 (35:34):
Didy Inger a Spotify playlist, by the way, Birch nothing rup.
Did you see that Rabel changed his name on the
playlist because it said and Mike right, and then it
was changed to like tie car And I saw this
on Jim Rowe and it took like a thirty second

(35:54):
Google search the name of his sons or Tyler and
like Carson or something.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
So it's like, dude, this guy's the worst. It's so
easy to figure out it's you. You're I.

Speaker 9 (36:04):
I just for the record, I'm not trying to insinuate
that Jay was cheating. I think that they they I
thought that they were just good friends like that, and
I'm sure that they were and and and Jay's in
a much better place now and and he said that relationship, Yeah,
they have yea better place as a great relationship. I
really look up to them.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
Wow, way to make awful announcing on your last week.

Speaker 9 (36:29):
I know I was gonna come on here and talk
about the fact that, like the job I had prior
to this, I got fired from, and I mean, there's
still time for this one. But yeah, I'm here until Friday.
But no, I was. When I was in college, I
had a part time job. I worked at a cold
Stone slash Subway.

Speaker 10 (36:46):
Like.

Speaker 9 (36:46):
It was one of those where the room was one
side Subway, the other half was cold Stone. I was
hired at Coldstone, but I could do both. I was
you were really good. God, I'm question was it with those.

Speaker 3 (36:57):
The days where they would actually like a little song
if you tip them?

Speaker 4 (37:01):
Oh, I like cold Stone? You used to.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
I feel like when you'd give a tip at Coldstone,
throw a couple of bucks in, they'd ring a bell
and everyone would sing a little song or something.

Speaker 9 (37:09):
Yeah, so it was those days. But we didn't do
it because we we just said, hey, we're not owned
by cold Stone, We're actually owned by Subway, and Subway
says we don't. We don't sing for tips, So sorry, guys. Yeah,
that was our line. It worked every time I got
fired from that cold Stone. I got fired on the
fourth of July. It was because when whenever my friends

(37:32):
would come in, which, by the way, every single person
did this. Every employee did this. When your friends come in,
they would ask for a like it, you know, because
they had to like it, love it, gotta have it,
and you would, you know, you there was the the
sizing system was subjective. Okay, like it, love it, God
to have it doesn't mean small, medium, large, it means
whatever it means. So you know you would you would

(37:54):
like accidentally scoop a little too much and then oh,
oh shoot, I just made a got to have it
on accident. Well I made it. I'm not going and
not give it to you, so I'm just but you
asked for like it, so I'm gonna sell it to
you at that price.

Speaker 4 (38:05):
You got busted for gotta have it?

Speaker 9 (38:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the reason everyone's fire. Everyone did it.
Person did it.

Speaker 19 (38:14):
By the way, I think ice cream is the only
food that I would not want too much of.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
Right because it just melts.

Speaker 19 (38:20):
Like otherwise you're like, okay, I just leave the fries
here or whatever.

Speaker 9 (38:23):
But that's a good point. I think everybody when they
see ice cream being made and they're like, oh man,
I'm getting I'm getting more than I asked for. This
is great, and I'm not gonna have to pay for
that extra. That's awesome.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
I got to have it. Yeah, they typically they have
you on camera and you got fired for that. Oh
my god.

Speaker 9 (38:40):
And this wasn't like something where I did something else
and I deserve to be fired. I would like to
say that I was a good employee. I didn't do
anything wrong, and I.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
Argue made a hell of a cold cut combo too.

Speaker 9 (38:50):
Cold cuts were pre made, they were in the plastic.
You would just throw it on there, and yeah, so
I flew through that actually delicious. One night they had
like a work meeting and they tied to how fast
we can make a foot long and I was like
one of the slower times. But my subway looked, my
sandwich looked immaculate.

Speaker 4 (39:07):
What are they a sandwich artist?

Speaker 9 (39:09):
I was a sandwich artist. I wasn't just throwing it
on there and they called you a stupid thing. We
all made a foot long and they were like, okay,
well you can't eat them because we're just going to
count this as waste. You guys don't get free sandwiches,
which was awesome. Really poor company subway. I'm sure they're struggling. Uh.

Speaker 3 (39:26):
Anyway, his final week, So are we gonna go over
the weakest, most epic farewells or what are we doing?

Speaker 8 (39:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 9 (39:34):
So I think I've been thinking about this leap this week,
like what's what's the way to go out? You know,
at your job, you guys were talking about Lebron and
if if that's the way to go out, Like if
this is it for him? Should he have done a
farewell tour? I've been thinking about that this week and
when I'm how how should I spend my final week?
There's some things I'm doing, like every day I'm trying

(39:55):
to eat at places around here that I always like
saw and was like.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
It's good, you know why because the routine is over. Yeah,
something that was such a big part of your life
for the past ten years. Yeah, you're not gonna be
doing that again. You even got to say goodbye to
the guy the nearest Delhi or something, right, because he's
gonna think you died because he's not gonna see you anymore.

Speaker 9 (40:13):
I just I just did that with the security guard
at the building here, this super nice guy, his name
is JB. I've said hi to him, every day for years.
I didn't know his name until until an hour ago
when I went up to him and finally like talked
to him.

Speaker 3 (40:25):
It's Funy would say that because when we left New
York to move to the West Coast to work with
Serious Sex and ESPNO now Fox Sports Radio, Cavino made
fun of me.

Speaker 4 (40:33):
He called it the Rich Davis farewell Tour because I.

Speaker 3 (40:36):
Went around town letting people know, like, hey, the coffee
guy I saw, like, hey, I'm moving. I don't like
because again I think, if you don't say goodbye to
these people, they've don't wonder what.

Speaker 4 (40:44):
Happened to Ryan Bursch, what happened to bersh.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
No, And again, like you don't think about those things.
That's why it's a great reminder. It's like Rich and
I used to get a soup all the time at
this place called Hale and Hardy in New York City,
and we would go there all the time, and subway
would go to all these seen places, and then you know,
all of a sudden, you move, or your time shift changes,
or your routine changes, and you never go to those
places again. So to take it in one last time,

(41:09):
I think that's a great idea. And a great reminder
because you know, you think you're gonna have all these
mental snapshots, but you forget and you move on. In
this whatever's next to tie to tie to best farewell?
I have a best farewell and uh I have a
good firing story as well. Best farewells in sports? Are
you gonna go sports? Is the number one answer for everyone,

(41:30):
have to be John Elway. Oh, I was gonna Antonio
Brown rich that one.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
And I remember famously Kareem Abdul Jabbar was given a
rocking chair and he looked at it like, how's this?

Speaker 4 (41:45):
That's fine?

Speaker 8 (41:45):
I don't Yeah, he didn't. He wasn't smiling a lot
through his farewell tour.

Speaker 4 (41:50):
Who started? Was it Kareem? Or like was it Derek Jeter? Like?

Speaker 3 (41:54):
When did it really become a thing to do a
farewell tour? Because as we said earlier, Brus, you're right
like Lebron's or their speculation that Lebron might not even
want that.

Speaker 4 (42:03):
Sort of farewell.

Speaker 20 (42:04):
I don't know when Kareem's last year was, but I
was in attendance for Doctor Ja's last game ever. They
lost to the Bucks in the first round of the playoffs,
a game five, but I remember Doctor J had a
farewell tour, and this would have been in nineteen eighty seven,
so he had four not one, not like I don't
know if every arena did, but you know places, you know,
if they faced the Lakers in the finals, so like,

(42:25):
so the Lakers would give them something, and Boston did.
But I know Doctor J had some stops and then,
and I think Kareem was right after that. I can't
remember exactly when Kareem retired.

Speaker 19 (42:35):
I thought maybe it was a year or two later
than that, but uh, but that would have been around
the time that those things started.

Speaker 3 (42:41):
I remember part of the deal, Birch, should you send
your like a goodbye email to the company, because that's
part of the process nowadays, right, because how many times
you get an email at the I don't even know
this person, delete beat it. How many times you get
some random emails four year journey?

Speaker 11 (42:56):
You like for your journey, you don't deserve an email.
Get out of years first got a shout out from
a Fritzi. I know, yes, he replies said, hey, best
of luck man, and.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
You know what ten years that that's worthy of Hey,
farewell goodbye and an email? Rich is right Sometimes it's
like it's been a great two years, Like great two years?

Speaker 4 (43:13):
Beat it?

Speaker 11 (43:14):
How about a decade? How about ten year? Yeah, versus
hit it more than that. More than that, versus hit it, I.

Speaker 3 (43:18):
Would say fit great farewells in sports. One more I
hate to say it. The fact that your guy Derek
Jeter had a walk off opposite field base hit in
like typical Jeter fashion at Yankee Stadium final home game.
I was like, it's a gross, dude. His his career
was such a fantasy, Like every big moment like that,
His three thousand hit was a home run, like so
many great moments like that.

Speaker 4 (43:39):
Incredible.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
It's got to be the top after probably John l Way,
which you said, but it doesn't have to be great,
maybe memorable, I jokingly sa Antonio Brown or you know when.

Speaker 9 (43:51):
What about Kobe Kobe's final game? Yeah, yeah, right, Yeah,
that's that's one of the most memorable. Sure it wasn't
a playoff game, a championship, but in terms of like
what he did, that game was all about Kobe and
the fact that he went off in the way he didn't.
It was incredible.

Speaker 4 (44:06):
No doubt.

Speaker 3 (44:06):
Anything else that you're gonna do, like I said, are
you gonna steal anything from here, like the guys of Keepsake.

Speaker 4 (44:11):
Click, you know what I mean. Like, is there something
else you're gonna do?

Speaker 8 (44:14):
Make a hard hat?

Speaker 3 (44:15):
Yeah, maybe Fred's hard hat, you know, But honestly, you
should steal something from Big MIC's office, like.

Speaker 9 (44:22):
One of his bottle eyed Yeah, yeah, one of the
bobble It's one thing I am going to do is uh.

Speaker 4 (44:26):
Where five of them? Now? There's only four.

Speaker 9 (44:31):
I do have a lot of different audio saved from
the last ten years. One thing was, you know, I
did a Dodger podcast with Bo called swing Shift for
a few years, and I have a whole bunch of
episodes saved u on the computers here. So I'm going
to take all of those and get to keep that
with me.

Speaker 4 (44:46):
Uh yeah.

Speaker 9 (44:47):
In terms of physically, it's I'm gonna have to steal
one of my things also.

Speaker 4 (44:51):
Equipment to being serious.

Speaker 3 (44:52):
Right now, we're having fun, but you think you know
your last goodbye when you walk out, you're gonna turn around,
take it in and then maybe shed one a little bit.

Speaker 9 (45:00):
I have not gotten emotional yet, which I am an
emotional guy.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
Uh So, even Green Bay, by the way, you're going
to be able to hear his goodbye right here on
our show because he's participating in brainwave with us on Friday.

Speaker 4 (45:14):
Oh wow, that's crazy.

Speaker 9 (45:17):
Friday is gonna be cool because we're all gonna go
to beat Ups after your guys a show. And that
will probably because I, you know, I might have a
drink or two that stokes the emotional Then the tears
are just gonna flows.

Speaker 4 (45:33):
Tears, tears not only.

Speaker 3 (45:36):
In sports, but the farewells, and you know, are they
always deserving too?

Speaker 4 (45:41):
Is part of the take. Does everybody deserve a farewell?
Sometimes you just move on.

Speaker 3 (45:46):
I think you have to put in over at least
over five years to really like be considered, like, hey,
let's have a party for this guy or whatever. I
think of the movie Half Baked and I think of Scarface.
I think that's a classic scene and in movies and
classic moment where he quits the place like if you,
if you you're cool, if you I'm out, Like, I

(46:07):
think that's a classic one in movies. Coming Who's coming
with me? Who's coming with me? That's another one. That's
another great one. People love to say. People have to say,
like if I won the lottery or quitter job, I
want to want to poop on my boss's desk.

Speaker 4 (46:20):
Dude, everybody says that anyone's ever you did you beat me? Rich?

Speaker 12 (46:25):
I can't say that you were a little too descriptive.
There go check out the podcast here Rich. Right now, Sam,
thank you for protecting me. You are a great offensive lineman.
I'm a reckless quarterback.

Speaker 19 (46:41):
I guess instead of taking something for Mike's office, you
would leave something.

Speaker 4 (46:45):
That he would leave in Mike's desk. Here you go.
Can I share a quick story? Sure?

Speaker 11 (46:50):
Because Bursch is a good friend of mine. We've become
really good friends the last five years. I'd say we've
worked together for over ten years. Now, feel he's leaving
you behind? Sam?

Speaker 4 (46:57):
Well, here's the thing.

Speaker 11 (46:58):
I started it kind of because I started my ten
year anniversary at Fox Sports Radio is coming up on
like May third, so he's going to be gone by then.
And it's like this seismic shift of uh, someone I've
worked with for ten years and then my good friends
that you know I went to.

Speaker 8 (47:13):
You know, Bursch and I have hung out. We you know,
I went to his wedding, and.

Speaker 4 (47:15):
You care about him so much.

Speaker 3 (47:16):
Last like two weeks ago, you're like, I'm gonna go
to Bursa's house and uh watch slides from his honeymoon.

Speaker 4 (47:21):
I'm like, oh, yeah, you know. I told him.

Speaker 11 (47:24):
I was like, bursh, you and your your wife meet
meet me at a Topper's Pizza in SeeMe Valley and
tell me all about your honeymoon, you know, over in
Asia and it was great and we had some great pizza.
Uh but uh, let's go too super wait go ahead, Dan.

Speaker 8 (47:38):
That's that's why he wanted to meet up.

Speaker 9 (47:39):
He told me that he told.

Speaker 20 (47:42):
Me that this doesn't like different toppers or something, and
there's only certain.

Speaker 4 (47:45):
Ones that he likes.

Speaker 20 (47:46):
So one of them all the same areas okay, because
there's one up by us, so I think they're I
think that's why he wanted to go.

Speaker 11 (47:54):
I kind of just gone and by myself, but I
did want to hear about the the honeymoon.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
But you know what those Sam, I'm serious and I
want to hear your your take quick. I think we
all could relate to like you worked with someone for
so long and it does feel weird when that person
leaves and you're like you're there, you know, like we've
all had like someone you shared an office with or
someone you worked with and they moved on, and you're like, dude,
do I feel like you have that feeling too? What

(48:19):
about when you're the last one's feeling?

Speaker 11 (48:23):
It feels like the end ending of the Sandlot where
they tell you where the guy's go and then they disappear,
and it's like you're kind of sad about it. You're
like little Jimmy went off and had a family and
moved to a Utah and never no one ever saw
from him again.

Speaker 4 (48:35):
Sam stayed there by himself.

Speaker 11 (48:37):
And then the only one left was me Sam. But
quickly two Super bowls ago, So this is the New
Orleans Super Bowl. I was working with Bursch. We were
doing radio row. Dan was on updates and we were
talking about like New Orleans cuisine. This drop has never
made the air before, It's only just been circulating in
circles here at FSR. But instead of turning Dan Byer's
mic on for the update, accidentally turned Bershinger's mic on uh,

(49:00):
and he was talking about New Orleans cuisine and he
said this, alright, some of that crawl.

Speaker 9 (49:06):
So when the when when we went live at at
the top of Doug's show, instead of the update, playing.
That's what played down the line which I was saying
it because Doug was talking about crawfish, so I thought
he heard it and then heard me like mocking him
in essences.

Speaker 8 (49:28):
So that went over the air.

Speaker 11 (49:31):
Probably shouldn't have admitted that one more time.

Speaker 8 (49:35):
Give me some of that crawl fish.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
So now we open up the phone lines.

Speaker 3 (49:45):
I was, Sam, I hope you got your stories already.
Mid dude week Major. Let's go.

Speaker 5 (49:50):
Covino and Rich get you over the middle of the week.
When mid Week Major Major, we throw sports and pop
culture headlines and topics that the fellas and it's like
the kids.

Speaker 7 (50:03):
Say, that's summit.

Speaker 5 (50:04):
We definitely padre see it our scoring midweek Major.

Speaker 1 (50:11):
Yeah, I gotta go really quick here to give Iowa
Sam at least seven minutes for this.

Speaker 8 (50:14):
You hear the horns. You made it to the middle
of the work week.

Speaker 1 (50:17):
We roll the two big red love dice over there
to see who gets the first take hide.

Speaker 9 (50:21):
We tied.

Speaker 3 (50:21):
All right, We have a roll one dice each one
die ready.

Speaker 4 (50:28):
You win? I got three, Rich got one, I went
you know it gets to go first.

Speaker 1 (50:31):
And now the most famous person besides Brian Bell of
Weezer from Iowa City, Iowa, Iowa.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
Sam Sammy, he gotta get into it, buddy, you got
to get into it.

Speaker 11 (50:42):
I did not pick this story, guys, because Danny g
is a diehard Raiders fan. But behold an NFL free
agent signing at the kicker position that is already growing
legs among Raider fans.

Speaker 9 (50:55):
He is the Tokyo Toe.

Speaker 11 (50:57):
Can say Matsuzawa taught himself how to place while living
in Native Japan using YouTube instructional videos. He also taught
himself English and eventually found his way to a junior
college in Ohio. And then he finished the and then
he finished a successful stint at the University of Hawaii.
Full disclosure. I had no idea what this guy was.
I didn't know about his Rainbow Warrior greatness at the time.

(51:18):
But the Tokyo Toe has a good chance of making
the Las Vegas roster. Hold on Daniel Carlson, he wasn't resigned.
Thank you Danny for that bit of info. It's the
toe versus the other kicker on the team, recent signing,
Matthew Gay. Come see the Tokyo Toe in Vegas sounds.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Like a draw to me. Midweek or major.

Speaker 3 (51:33):
This is major only because of a story and because
of Danny g and the Raiders. They're just a major
team to look out for with Fernanda Mendoza and Tom
Rady and all the moving parts and Genti and this
and dude, he.

Speaker 4 (51:47):
Had me at Tokyo Kyotoe. We at the nickname.

Speaker 3 (51:50):
I think a good nickname goes a long way, and like,
how could you forget that?

Speaker 8 (51:54):
Now?

Speaker 3 (51:54):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (51:54):
I tell you, I think it's major.

Speaker 15 (51:56):
I think the.

Speaker 4 (51:57):
Raiders are a major storyline period.

Speaker 3 (51:59):
So it would be I, Mendoza and Brady having an
active role and all these players that you feel like, oh,
maybe they're in position to do well now, like like
you said, like a gent or a Bowers they get
some weapons now, yo. The Tokyo tow just another fun
little gimmick for a team that has been in the
basement so long. And Danny, I'm rooting for your team
to really make some fun noise this year, I hope.

Speaker 8 (52:18):
So think about it.

Speaker 11 (52:20):
He's a Japanese kicker, he's a little close to the
West coast. Maybe it draws people in. Maybe it's the
reason to go see the Raiders. Tokyo to Tokyo to
bro All right, let's move on another football related story here,
Brendan Soorsby, former Indiana Hoo'sia quarterback turned Cincinnati Bearcat turned
Texas Tech red Raider, has entered a treatment program not
for an issue like substance abuse, but rather for a

(52:42):
massive gambling addiction. Sorsby is accused of placing thousands of
bets on sporting events while as an active college athlete,
a few of those bets on his own Indiana team
when he was there as a true freshman. Sorsby arrived
at Texas Tech as one of college football's highest paid athletes,
but his eligibility is now in certain jeopardy. Jock's with
a sports gambling addiction Midweek or major major.

Speaker 3 (53:04):
I think this is major. I'm gonna say this carefully
and respectfully. You know, we live in a time and
culture where everybody thinks they're going to be the.

Speaker 4 (53:11):
Next YouTube star or whatever.

Speaker 3 (53:13):
We also live in a culture where all these kids
think they're going to make their next fortion by betting
on the weather right and betting on predictions look or
crypto or crypto.

Speaker 4 (53:22):
Or hitting it big like that.

Speaker 3 (53:23):
And I think these things with the wrong people, like
a guy like me, I don't have an addictive personality
in that way. So, yeah, if I drop some money
on a prediction or on an investment, whatever, But some
people get really caught up in that, and it could
be it could be a life changer, put it that way,
if not handled properly. So I think this could be
a major issue moving forward. Now you agreat, it's very major.

Speaker 4 (53:44):
It's too accessible.

Speaker 3 (53:45):
It's major because, like you said, the culture we live
in now where I read an article that the younger generation,
the post college kids, feel like they have a better
chance to win money or make a tricky quick buck
investment than actually get into a career and earn a
living in the old fashioned way.

Speaker 4 (54:02):
So you know, wagering sites this feeds that that in need.

Speaker 3 (54:07):
Yeah, the prediction market, wagering sites, crypto NFTs, these if
done responsibly, are really fun things.

Speaker 4 (54:14):
But a lot of people in that response you're betting
on your own team.

Speaker 11 (54:16):
You know, you're if you're a college athlete, you have
to completely to stay away from all that stuff because
then you're calling the integrity of the game slippery slope.
Buddy boy, All right, let's go on another store here.
For some reason, I love crime stories over and more
like you know pop culture stories. Last week I had
the guy swapping out the lego pieces for the dry pasta.
This week, let me quote the offspring. If you're under eighteen,

(54:39):
you won't be doing any time. But two eighteen year
old men in Florida were busted for a brazen social
media stone over the weekend. Yanik, I'm gonna try to
say this. Yanka Strevarek is accused of taking a riding
lawnmower into a Target store in Marion County, Florida. I
watched the video. He can't quite make it through the
doors on his first attempt, seemingly damaging them. He then

(55:00):
the store, likely causing some mild hysteria. His pal and
social media Ride or Die cameraman was also arrested. Guys,
criminal record, accruing a criminal record, doing some dumb crap
for the TikTok Looksie Daisies Midweek or Major.

Speaker 3 (55:16):
I'll say Major. You know what, I'm so surprised that
a Florida man does something dumb. We see those headlines.

Speaker 8 (55:21):
All the time.

Speaker 4 (55:21):
Young Florida man. Yeah, young Florida man does something dumb.

Speaker 3 (55:24):
Not a surprise there, But I think that somebody these
young cats need to start learning their lessons. You're messing
with the wrong people. You're doing all these things for
the clicks. You know, people are gonna get hurt out there,
and I don't know, I just think this this story
is on that track of someone's gonna get hurt. When
someone's gonna get hurt, And by the way, I think
it's more mid but it is like someone's gonna get hurt,

(55:45):
or even better, someone's gonna get.

Speaker 4 (55:48):
Punched in the nose.

Speaker 3 (55:49):
I see videos all the time where someone will I
don't know, put a bucket on someone's head and home
deep and pretend it wasn't them.

Speaker 4 (55:54):
And you're assuming, like, mess with the wrong guy.

Speaker 3 (55:56):
Yeah, you mess with the wrong guy, you're gonna get
punched in the nose. Like you ever see someone like
go behind someone who whisper in their ear and the
guys like, whoa, what do you do? Like, I mean,
it's happened before, someone didn't someone gets shot? Remember that
clip in a food court? In a food court? Yeah,
so you know people were gonna have to learn that
you can't mess around. Not everything's a joke, not everything's
a click. And you know everyone's looking for that cheap
viral moment. Your answer can't always be like bro, bro, relax,

(56:18):
I'm recording, yeah, record, I'll still punch in the nose.

Speaker 11 (56:21):
And and these guys were also captured I think out
of culvers with like a leaf flower doing another stunt.
So they had already kind of run up like a
track record of nonsense.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
So I do with a leaf blower on TikTok, blowing
women's weaves off their head. If you do that to
the wrong person, a disrespectful regardless, you gotta get your
ass whopped himself or worse.

Speaker 4 (56:43):
Yeah, thank you much all I got for you.

Speaker 9 (56:45):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (56:47):
I have a question for you guys before you get
to this, uh mendoza Tom Brady story.

Speaker 4 (56:52):
Danny G.

Speaker 3 (56:52):
Dalton rushing your backup catcher Will Smith's understudy using Broadway terms.

Speaker 8 (56:59):
You love how rushing one off against your mets?

Speaker 3 (57:01):
Huh?

Speaker 4 (57:02):
No, Dalton rushing?

Speaker 3 (57:04):
Did you see this play from last night where he's
in the batter's box, makes eye contact with the umpire
and he goes time out. Looks the second time he
goes time out, please, the umpire nods yep, yes, then
calls him for a pitchclock violation, and everyone is like
baffled the announcers Dave Roberts, Everyone's.

Speaker 4 (57:26):
Like, what is going on? Like there was a clear
understanding of like a timeout.

Speaker 3 (57:31):
Do you think there should be some type of Hey man,
I had a brain fart because this umpire clearly like
you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, sometimes.

Speaker 8 (57:40):
You're just because he granted it, and yeah, you.

Speaker 3 (57:42):
Know, like sometimes you just get lost in the moment
in any job you have, hopefully it's not an important job,
but we all have those moments where you're like, dude,
I'm sorry, I was like not really paying attention. Sometimes
it's just the regular fart that throws you off. It
does not always just a brain fart. Sorry, this guy
straight up grants the time out and then like almost
forgets he does and he's out.

Speaker 4 (58:03):
How do you do that?

Speaker 3 (58:05):
There's some confusion going on even in the Yankees game today.
Earlier today they lost to the Rangers.

Speaker 4 (58:11):
There was a.

Speaker 3 (58:14):
Strikeout throw them out. But during the strikeout it was
an ABS challenge and it was strike three, but they
threw him out and the guy stopped going to second
because he was like, I thought it was ball four
and he was like, yo, but dude, you don't stop
running because you think it's ball four. Oh yeah, I
know called the ABS challenge a strike. So strike three

(58:35):
and you're out.

Speaker 4 (58:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (58:37):
So there's lots of different things going on, and there's
a lot of moving parts that the umpires are they're
still confused by. Maybe so maybe this dude's thinking about
something else, maybe he has gas. I don't know what's
going on, because yeah, he missed that completely. You know
what's interesting. You know how we've talked about how in
baseball they're doing reverse framing now, reverse framing with the catchers.
In other words, catchers trying to make it look like

(58:59):
a ball. It's a strike, it was a ball, but
it was actually a strike just to get the guy
to challenge, because they want the other team to waste
their challenges. You're deaking the challenge kind of. There may
be other shenanigans, just based on what you said, Danny.
What if what if a team's like, all right, steal,
Like if you steal, run through no matter what, because
you could almost you could might chance change the car,

(59:20):
you can a b you can abs hoping it's a
striker ball, and then all of a sudden you catch
a guy sleep and saying, all right, I'll just walk
the second.

Speaker 4 (59:27):
You'll see it later. There's a lot of different things
going on.

Speaker 3 (59:29):
It's like, you know, Bill Belichick would manipulate timeout calling
until they caught him, Like all right, we got to
adjust that. You're seeing it in baseball. But all right,
let's let's wrap with Brady and Mendoza. Mendoza signs his
first ever official tops NFL card, And of course, I
mean it's the card. It's like the Jose Conseco rated rookie,
It's the eighty six rated rookie of today. This is

(59:51):
Fernando Mendoza's rookie card, autographed. And who's jumping at it?
TB twelve himself already says I'm buying this Brady On
Mendoza's first rookie card.

Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
But is that is that?

Speaker 3 (01:00:03):
Is that a good look? Meaning like I believe in
this kid so much. I almost feel like it's a
Tom Brady trying to give a little extra confidence.

Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
Boost that that And I was gonna say, cove because
you know Tom Brady he has these card shops.

Speaker 8 (01:00:16):
Yeah, he has a card vault. I think I don't
know why, I think.

Speaker 3 (01:00:19):
Have like thirteen of him. I feel like I heard
him say that once before. He has a bunch of them. Yeah,
he owns all these twelve Yeah he should, I think
he yeah, me double check that in a way. But
I think Danny he wanted for one of his shops
that Brady wants in. But I think also it's the
right move because if Brady's already a collector, what a
great confidence look in that, y'all. I feel like this
is gonna be valuable, like above and beyond, because you're

(01:00:42):
my guy and I believe in you.

Speaker 4 (01:00:43):
Fernando.

Speaker 8 (01:00:44):
Yeah, I mean, he knows he's a future pro bowler.

Speaker 4 (01:00:47):
Not like when I bought all those Todd Van Poppol cards.

Speaker 3 (01:00:50):
Break Jefferys, my Greg Jeffery Future Stark collection.

Speaker 4 (01:00:54):
Man, I had like eighteen of those.

Speaker 6 (01:00:55):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:00:55):
Tom Brady holds a fifty percent Steak and Card vault
and he has over a dozen now thirteen. They're expanding
to maybe fourteen locations by the end of the year.

Speaker 4 (01:01:04):
So yeah, he wants it, So you can't have it?

Speaker 3 (01:01:10):
Can I shamelessly promote two things tonight on the History
Channel brand new episode of Mysteries Unearthed, and I think
I'm on it and ask me to promote it, and
I want you to see me, so check it out.
I posted a clip, so please like my clip at
Steve Covino. And while you're on the ig and TikTok
at Steve Covino, I posted a picture of me with

(01:01:32):
my original mister potato Head. It looks like it's from
like nineteen sixty something.

Speaker 4 (01:01:37):
It's so gross. I'm old.

Speaker 3 (01:01:38):
It looks the picture looks like she was like the
early eighties. Covina looks like he's seventy five years old.
You look like you were a child when it was
black and white film. But dude, everybody had a mister
potato Head?

Speaker 4 (01:01:48):
Am I right? Nours? Of course?

Speaker 3 (01:01:50):
In fact, the late great Don Rickles played mister potato
Head on the Toy Story movies.

Speaker 4 (01:01:55):
I'm a Maverick, but I'm a marriage but single fellas.

Speaker 3 (01:01:59):
All right, So you could see me my og original
mister potato Head at Steve Covino, and everyone took the
glasses of the lips and you put them on your
own face. But on this day in nineteen fifty two,
mister potato Head became the first toy ever advertised on TV.
And if you see the original commercial as wild because,
like Rich said, it was just a potato and you

(01:02:21):
were supposed to put the nose and the eyes on
a real potato.

Speaker 4 (01:02:24):
It looked creepy as could be.

Speaker 3 (01:02:25):
You ever see like you ever see someone with really
old school creepy like Santa Claus decorations back in the
day for Christmas.

Speaker 11 (01:02:31):
This is like the Easter Bunny from the fifties or forties.

Speaker 3 (01:02:34):
Like like, yeah, your parents' Easter Bunny was like just
a creepy rabbit. Dude, the og nineteen fifty two potato
Head commercial, Mister potato head. It was really like I said,
the eyes, the mouth and the ears. And some people
put it on like a like a skinny sweet potato
like a yam. Some put it on a like just
a regular potato. It looks creepy. And the voiceover was great,

(01:02:57):
this it's all old school, like brought to you by
has Bro.

Speaker 4 (01:03:00):
Has Bro shit introducing she hand. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:03:05):
So on that note and based on that thought, I
think we all had one. But what were just what
were the toys or or even items merchandise whatever that
you always wanted that you never got, right?

Speaker 4 (01:03:18):
What are those toys?

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
I got two and they still bothered me to this day,
because then you often battle too, like, well, I'm an adult,
can I go and find it on eBay? Just to
fulfill my childhood dreams? I did what you just inside?
Really yeah, because it's always that question. Let me let
me hit you with it. And I was disappointed and
my parents were probably right, and it wasn't the animal.
I did get that, the worst remote control car ever. Yeah, animal,

(01:03:39):
the animal put anything off the animal and the claws
would come out of the tires. My parents did get that,
So that's not on my list. But did you return it?
Because it sucked? What my parents wouldn't get me? When
I was a grown man, I got one like in
like a weird like that wasn't spiteful, but it was
like like, oh well now I so badly wanted a

(01:04:00):
Snoopy snow cone machine. Oh yeah, and I remember my
parents being like, it's stupid, Richie, it just grinds ice.

Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
I'm like snowcone and my parents like, just so it's stupid.

Speaker 8 (01:04:09):
Yeah, I got my mom. That was her answer for
every toy commercial.

Speaker 3 (01:04:13):
Stupid kids kind of like stupid they kids don't care,
they just want it.

Speaker 4 (01:04:19):
Oh but that's just for LOSAs.

Speaker 3 (01:04:22):
Just wants it, and Mom were like, no, it's it's
what is it? It grinds up ice and no, you
don't need we don't need that. I have to be honest.
I loved my Snoopy Soaco machine. I did, but you're right,
it didn't work the way it was advertised. None of
the stuff did that we had growing up. For me,
it was my pet monster. Always wanted it, never got it.

(01:04:42):
Remember that weird looking monster with the handcuffs, like, oh,
I want my pet monster. And I sort of grew
out of it. I guess, I don't know. Never no
one ever bought it from me. But I was a
spoiled little a.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
Hole, so I had most things of designer jeans.

Speaker 4 (01:04:57):
I had a lot. Yeah I was.

Speaker 3 (01:04:58):
I was spoiled, dude, I had so many Nintendo games.
I was so spoiled. And see I was.

Speaker 4 (01:05:03):
I was not.

Speaker 3 (01:05:04):
I loved a great little childhood. But I'll give you
an example, Danny. If we went to a game on
the circus whatever was in town, at Nassau Coliseum or
Madison Square Garden in New York, no way on planet
Earth would my family buy me cotton candy every time.
I'm like Jeff can't believe cotton never like I feel
like just sugar.

Speaker 8 (01:05:24):
It's just sugar that melts in your mouth.

Speaker 4 (01:05:26):
Exactly your mom. I feel like they have the same play,
but you know what happens.

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Oh yeah, parents over correct now now rich by All
you know all the kids in his section, Cotton Candy,
he's the comoncady man.

Speaker 1 (01:05:37):
You know the the toy car tracks and we used
to see all the cool with a gun.

Speaker 4 (01:05:43):
And had that hot burning smell.

Speaker 1 (01:05:45):
Yeah, my older brother and I we wanted those cars
so badly. And my mom's like, no, no, no, no,
that those are made cheaply. She had a story for everything.
The one the one thing we bugged her the most
for though, Castle Gray School, actual Castle. I had a
he man and I wanted that castle so bad.

Speaker 3 (01:06:05):
I still one of the only things I still have
my parents at. I'm sorry to tell you, Danny, I
had one. I also had Snake Mountain and it came
with a little microphone.

Speaker 8 (01:06:16):
That's how he started his broadcast.

Speaker 4 (01:06:17):
It was my first broadcast was from live from Snake Mountain.

Speaker 8 (01:06:20):
It wasn't just the toy commercials.

Speaker 1 (01:06:22):
I wanted the magic Johnson purple and golden white Converse weapon.

Speaker 8 (01:06:26):
Yes, so bad.

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
And of course they came out in the mid late
eighties with the Larry Bird Magic Johnson commercial where they
were dueling against each other and those converse.

Speaker 8 (01:06:36):
I wanted those shoes. I'm that note. Man.

Speaker 4 (01:06:38):
I'll never forget this. I was at Bamburger's.

Speaker 3 (01:06:40):
This is like Macy's before Macy's, right, So I'm a
little kid and this is timely and it's one of
the only things I didn't get because I tell you,
I was pretty spoiled. And I don't take any pride
in saying that. I don't think it got to my head.
I don't think I'm the worst guy ever, but I try.

Speaker 4 (01:06:55):
Not to be. But anyway, didn't he get this?

Speaker 11 (01:06:57):
I'm curious what Danny's mom have like approved of him
in terms of toys, Like what did she sign off on?
She was like, no, that's stupid, that's poorly made. What
did she actually think was like quality?

Speaker 4 (01:07:06):
Got a water gun?

Speaker 8 (01:07:07):
She got me a big wheel. It was a Darth
Vader big wheel.

Speaker 4 (01:07:09):
These are cool though, made in America, quality made.

Speaker 3 (01:07:12):
So I was at Bamburger's with my mom and my
grandma and dude, I saw what I thought was the
coolest thing that ever was, and till this day, I
still think it is. It was the Michael Jackson like
thriller jacket, but there was also like the beaded jackets.

Speaker 4 (01:07:25):
They read, you know, the red leather.

Speaker 3 (01:07:27):
I remember what they had him at the store, and
Michael Jackson was everything and you could see why based
on the box office numbers right. And I remember this
is one of my only moments. I was crying because
they wouldn't get it from me. I'm like, the jacket
didn't get it, never got it, man. But if you
can get a sequence glove or that jacket back then,

(01:07:49):
you were the coolest kid going. The funniest part is
we do over correct with our kids now and buy
them way too much.

Speaker 4 (01:07:54):
And our parents were great.

Speaker 3 (01:07:55):
I had no complaints for my childhood, but there were
things my parents said no to. In fact, maybe I
actould take a note out of their book, because I
feel like too many times my wife and I were like.

Speaker 4 (01:08:05):
Yeah, sure, they're only young ones, like we'll.

Speaker 3 (01:08:07):
Go to like let's say it's a pumpkin festival for Halloween.
Do your kids really need like the twenty dollars little
glow light at like a carnival? Do they really need
all that stuff, the junk. But if you could afford it, man,
and they are young ones. Yeah, that's the constant battles.
Another conversation for another day.

Speaker 4 (01:08:23):
Let's say you broll. Let's me say no, just to
say no.

Speaker 7 (01:08:25):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:08:26):
Let's say it. Take your daughter to go see uh
frozen on ice? Does she need the little elsa you know,
thirty dollars spinny light. When they're grown up and you're
yearning for that time again, you're really gonna hurt you
in the wallet when you look back and say, man,
I know I wish i'd admire that six dollar thing.

Speaker 1 (01:08:44):
I have over corrected so badly. On toys. CoA has
bins and boxes. Yeah, he has so many toys. During
the break, I'll show you guys a picture just from
the other day. He will empty out buckets and barrels
of toys. This kid, it looks like we have a
daycare set. But is he a good he's a great kid.

Speaker 3 (01:09:01):
Well that's that's how I look at it, right.

Speaker 7 (01:09:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:09:04):
If they're good kids and are doing their part or whatever,
and they're getting good grades, it's like, well more do
you want to get to do so anyway based on
mister Potato Head.

Speaker 8 (01:09:12):
If I still want my he Man cash.

Speaker 11 (01:09:13):
Get it, Danny g Danny can sell those toys too,
By the way, toys quick trivia for you guys, because
because as you said, this is the anniversary nineteen fifty
two the first TV commercial advertising toys.

Speaker 1 (01:09:25):
How much money do you think advertisers spend each year
now advertising toys?

Speaker 3 (01:09:29):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:09:30):
Good question.

Speaker 8 (01:09:31):
You know what.

Speaker 3 (01:09:31):
I wonder if it's as much as it was when
we were kids growing up, because now now they just
hit like social media.

Speaker 8 (01:09:36):
It's still a lot.

Speaker 4 (01:09:38):
It's got to be like a year how much?

Speaker 3 (01:09:41):
And billions and billions billion dollars.

Speaker 1 (01:09:46):
This isn't just limited to TV. It's the advertising budgets
for toys.

Speaker 4 (01:09:50):
Maybe a billion.

Speaker 1 (01:09:51):
I have twelve billion dollars per years?

Speaker 6 (01:09:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:09:57):
Bis how much?

Speaker 3 (01:09:58):
But you think the original mister Potato Head cost it's
in the OG commercial.

Speaker 11 (01:10:03):
I'm gonna guess like a dollar twenty nine.

Speaker 3 (01:10:06):
Well kind of safe it has bro the original missed
the potato Head one dollar, one dollar. I bet you
most of us here didn't get, even me, who was spoiled.
We all wanted a diamondback, a mongoose, a GT performer
we wanted that sweet BMX bike and we probably got
a basic or generic one. Well, my story goes, you

(01:10:27):
know what, am I wrote it down. I we were
at that transition age. I had a Columbia. I so
badly wanted a diamondback or something. You know, that transition
transition age where you went from I guess you would say,
like some people called dirt bike or the small bike
to a bigger bike, right, yeah, Well we called them
dirt bikes growing up, but they're BMX bike. Yeah, BMX bikes.
Maybe the rich kid had the mongoose of the GT performer.

(01:10:49):
You might have had a huffy. Everyone started going from
that to like getting a sweet mountain bike. And my
parents bought me a ten speed, like I was Lance
Armstrong and I.

Speaker 4 (01:10:58):
Remember being and I remember like my dad.

Speaker 3 (01:11:03):
My dad still rolls his eyes when I tell that story.
But it's like, oh, Richie, it was a good bike.

Speaker 9 (01:11:07):
Yeah it was.

Speaker 3 (01:11:08):
But then yours have an intercom and you're like, rich
was the first kid with a water bottle, but he
started the tread dandy. But picture all the all the
boys in my neighborhood riding around on their like their
mountain bikes and I had a tense people with those
thin tires like you probably wore speedos or those bicycle
pants and bike short You know, you bring back so

(01:11:32):
many funny memories telling that story, Rich and we're gonna
go to your phone calls now. Eight seven seven ninety nine,
O Fox. My buddy Barry also wanted the sweet Mountain
bike and his parents bought him like you know, like
like a weak version, but it had the newspaper rack
in the back.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
We made such fun of.

Speaker 3 (01:11:47):
Him, bro, you know you know what I'm talking about,
Like I think there was a basket in the front
and a newspaper rack in the back, like that weird
rack in the back of it.

Speaker 11 (01:11:56):
And get older and you need that rack though, because
like you would that's when you didn't have a car
yet you need to transport stuff. Yeah, oh I love
the basket.

Speaker 3 (01:12:03):
We made fun of him so hard, and it goes
back to the first hour because making fun of people
is fun. You just don't want to take it too far.
I have a question, did everyone in this room. I
doubt this is an East Coast thing, but did everyone
at least give their effort once to do some type
of penny saver or paper route.

Speaker 4 (01:12:20):
Dude, I had two paper rocks. Did any did you
do that?

Speaker 8 (01:12:24):
I had to fill in on a paper rock. It
wasn't my own, but I was. I was a sob
if the other kid couldn't do it.

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
Yeah, that was.

Speaker 3 (01:12:30):
That was the thing going around the neighborhood, throwing it
on their porch, Penny Saver or whatever the local paper was.

Speaker 4 (01:12:35):
Yeah, that was.

Speaker 3 (01:12:35):
That's a job that your kid today would look at
you like you were like telling you a lie. Like
I could picture dB wanting like a specific sort of
like starter jacket or something and not get it.

Speaker 19 (01:12:45):
I hated it. I hated working. I hated yeah, none
of it. I would rather have nothing than work for
my money. When I was a kid, all I wanted
to do was play. That was it, honestly.

Speaker 4 (01:12:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
So based on the potato head, what are some things
that you you always wanted but never got? Eight seven
seven ninety nine five. Let me give you one more
and then we'll go rapid fire not so much a toy,
actually two quick ones. Every time I watched the commercial
for Sports Illustrated, I wanted that football phone and I
remember again, like everything else, your parents are like, that's stupid.
Everything that you liked was stupid.

Speaker 11 (01:13:18):
How easy that's going to break? You're fun, it will
make that for you in the garage. Yeah, we got
that at home. We have a football phone at home.

Speaker 4 (01:13:26):
And that I s. I did a great job of
marketing those those fo.

Speaker 3 (01:13:30):
Anytime your team won a championship, which is rare, they
would always come out with like those packs that like
right away. That and I wear contact lenses. Now I
wear glasses as a kid. Nowadays kids wear glasses.

Speaker 4 (01:13:43):
No one makes fun of anyone. Glasses are like glasses.

Speaker 3 (01:13:46):
Embraces went from being nerds to like, oh good, no
big deal. My daughter has like an expander. Never one
kid said anything to hers. If remember back in the
day you get made fun of for glasses or braces.

Speaker 4 (01:13:57):
That's a thing of the eighties nerds. I had the
thickest glasses.

Speaker 3 (01:14:05):
If you wear contact lenses, you know what I'm about
to say, I'm minus I'm minus five in each ebe
meaning like if I took my contacts out now, I'd
be like, Danny, is that you? I wouldn't know if
it was your eye with Sam really my glasses, you
would see Sam and say what's up Mary? Mac My
my glasses were so thick, but it cost a little
extra money to get those thinner glasses. Yeah, And my

(01:14:26):
parents were like, no, this is the one on our plan. Oh,
these are just fine. These are the one on the plan.

Speaker 4 (01:14:31):
Oh man.

Speaker 3 (01:14:32):
And I was like, how much more could it have
been for the thinner glasses? I ever coke bottled glass.
I couldn't, couldn't, wouldn't splurge. That's the wild part for me.
It wasn't so much toys. It was food items in
the fridge. We were never allowed We were only allowed
to have skim milk, never two percent or whole milk,
which tastes way better. And we were never allowed to
have like condiments like ranch. So when I'd go to
a restaurant and I'd get to have ranch, now there's

(01:14:53):
always ranch in my fridge and my heart is probably
clogged because of it. But when I was growing up deprived,
I was deprived of ranch two percent milk.

Speaker 4 (01:15:01):
Oh, you got to be thinking so much.

Speaker 3 (01:15:03):
I'm sorry, this is such a relatable fun not let
you get good toothpaste.

Speaker 4 (01:15:08):
He got offended by this pepsident.

Speaker 3 (01:15:13):
Is just fine, that's all you get. When I remember
when I was a kid, for some reason. My mom,
when when she would do the supermarket run, would never
get me Caprice Sons. When Caprice Sons first came out
the idea of it's not a juice box, it's a pouch.

Speaker 4 (01:15:30):
That's why you wear capri pants till this day, I.

Speaker 3 (01:15:33):
Remember being like, Mom, quick, get caprices and we would
always get like SIPs, you know.

Speaker 4 (01:15:38):
Yeah. And I remember being like, Ritchie, I bought you
some juice boxes.

Speaker 11 (01:15:41):
Juice, how many of those could you crush in a row?
Three in a row?

Speaker 4 (01:15:47):
Six?

Speaker 5 (01:15:48):
Bro?

Speaker 3 (01:15:49):
All right, so let's go to the phones, things that
you just didn't get as a kid.

Speaker 4 (01:15:53):
Because it's mister potato head day, we got.

Speaker 1 (01:15:59):
The an speaking of spudge, We'll start in Idaho. It's
Craig's man.

Speaker 13 (01:16:06):
How you doing the goofballs?

Speaker 4 (01:16:08):
What's up? Man?

Speaker 6 (01:16:10):
So?

Speaker 13 (01:16:11):
And your topic triggered me, so we're gonna.

Speaker 6 (01:16:13):
Go way back, okay, way back, okay.

Speaker 13 (01:16:16):
Nineteen six, nineteen sixty five. I was years old, Thank you,
Oh my had I'm busy, so all my friends had
GI Joe's, the original g I Joe. And I was
anticipating getting money for Christmas and I wanted the frog Man?

Speaker 14 (01:16:36):
But what did I get instead?

Speaker 13 (01:16:39):
A beautiful Triumph three speed bike, and I was devastated.

Speaker 3 (01:16:44):
Yeah, I think you got G I Jeff like the
generic one. He's just because that happened too. So that's
why G I Joe was that like the big g
I Joe's the fuzzy heads and every All Right, who
do we got?

Speaker 8 (01:17:01):
Next day, Let's travel to North Carolina, Anthony in the house.

Speaker 9 (01:17:07):
Six GIA Joe USS flag aircraft carrier, that aircraft car everything.

Speaker 3 (01:17:14):
Man, that was a big deal if you had that. Yeah,
every kid wanted that. I could see why a parent
wouldn't want to buy that. I think was big and
they probably had to put it together. That's another thing
that we didn't think about back then. Parents were like, yeah,
I'm gonna have to put that together in next Yeah,
we know that's an I remember Canno's daughter is a

(01:17:35):
teenager and she's sixteen. I remember when your daughter was little.
I remember you bought her an elsa castle. That didn't
you tell me took you like a week to put together.

Speaker 4 (01:17:44):
Queen Forever. I remember that kitchen set we put together together.
I do.

Speaker 3 (01:17:48):
Yeah, So, like you know, as a parent, we didn't
we didn't think about that back then. But now you're like, yeah,
I don't know about that aircraft.

Speaker 11 (01:17:54):
Can all tedious assembly required.

Speaker 3 (01:17:57):
You know, you know what we sucked at those kids
putting stickers on those things, because we would You would
ruin it, right if you had like a millennium falcon
and you had to put the stickers on it, that's
where you ruined it as a kid. My parents don't
want to buy that for you because you're gonna ruin
it anyway. All right, So back to the phones. Things

Speaker 14 (01:19:42):
Hey, guys, how you doing?

Speaker 4 (01:19:44):
We're good man? What's up?

Speaker 14 (01:19:45):
I got two things? If I may. I'm a Niner fan,
big Diner fans, like rich, same generation, and there was
one kid that had this and all of us just
thought it was amazing, And finally I fulfilled my childhood dream.
Last week, I went to a baseball card shop and
I bought a Jerry Rice rookie card.

Speaker 4 (01:20:05):
Dude, that's awesome, that's nice.

Speaker 3 (01:20:07):
Yeah, I was thinking about buying a Ben Rice rookie
card because he's so hot right now. Relation by the way,
but you know how much I say you back, Oh
we lost him.

Speaker 14 (01:20:16):
I wonder it was like one and fifties.

Speaker 4 (01:20:18):
Wow, nice to have. Yeah, that's good, that's really dope.

Speaker 3 (01:20:20):
Yeah, I'm sure there's a lot of cards that we
always wanted never got. Maybe a piece of sporting equipment
you always wanted never got. Everybody wanted the adjustable rim
and not everybody had it. Yeah, as long as one
kid in the neighborhood had it, you needed war and
five at least that's what your parents would tell you. Oh,
why do he need one? Jerry down the street has one,
of course. So all right, we'll wrapping up with your

(01:20:42):
phone calls. Thank you guys for playing along studio lines.

Speaker 8 (01:20:44):
Blowing up. Will take one more for right now, JP
and OKC about JP.

Speaker 2 (01:20:49):
Hey guys, a long time, many.

Speaker 4 (01:20:51):
Time, thanks buddy, Yeah, appreciate it.

Speaker 10 (01:20:54):
So there's a thirteen year age gap from me and
my younger sister.

Speaker 3 (01:20:58):
She got one of these.

Speaker 10 (01:21:00):
Still am pissed off.

Speaker 2 (01:21:01):
About it to this day. I wanted one for so long.

Speaker 10 (01:21:04):
I asked for it, Birthday, Christmas, every time I wanted
a power wheel, didn't get it. My little sister got
the Barbie Jeep power wheels when I was like, I
don't know, twelve. I was so pissed off because I
never got one and she did.

Speaker 3 (01:21:17):
You know, dude, always want one, but I aged out
the the cod power wheel goal.

Speaker 4 (01:21:23):
A couple of year.

Speaker 3 (01:21:24):
Age difference between you and I is I just was
able to get one. You remember the show Chips, Baker
and Punch the California Highway Patrol. I had the Chips
motor sect. We should be Chips for Halloween. Bro mean, yeah,
Baker and Punch, who ride a little Chip motorcycle. Maybe
that's maybe that's subconscirac. Maybe that's subconscios. How we found
each other like power wheel, power makes it go. They

(01:21:46):
hated each other in real life, Yeah they did. They
hated each other Baker and so Punch. Yeah, but you
know what Punch got Baker fired, So be careful. Punch
and Baker say, I had that one. But you're right,
those power wheels. If you were younger, let's say you're
in your thirties, now you definitely won one of those,
because that's when they were in there, those big number
of kids on the street. I was too old for him,

(01:22:08):
but they would have the big foot ones. Oh yeah,
big foot, those are power wheel.

Speaker 4 (01:22:15):
Was it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:16):
It's time to play I think a lot of people's
favorite game Brainwave.

Speaker 8 (01:22:19):
Let's go.

Speaker 6 (01:22:20):

Right now, all right, Happy Friday.

Speaker 4 (01:22:58):
Yeah body.

Speaker 1 (01:22:59):
The questions in this game are all subjective. You just
need to try and match the brain of CNR and
the crew. It's going to get our contestant from the
studio lines right now, then I'll explain the rules.

Speaker 8 (01:23:08):
Isaiah and Boise was the first three.

Speaker 4 (01:23:10):
Hey, Isaiah was all on yo.

Speaker 13 (01:23:13):

Speaker 2 (01:23:14):
Long time listener?

Speaker 1 (01:23:15):
Love you guys, Thank you brother, what do you do
for living there in Idaho?

Speaker 13 (01:23:19):
I'm an insurance agent.

Speaker 10 (01:23:21):
And by the way, earlier, I have your back, Ridge,
I'm totally on board with you.

Speaker 19 (01:23:25):
I didn't get to go to prom and and I've
got your back on that one for sure.

Speaker 3 (01:23:30):
Yell, you know I thought about it. More people that
want to go to promo probably sucked at baseball. Get
out of here, like.

Speaker 1 (01:23:37):
All right, here we go. I have five rounds ready
to go. Our contestant needs to win two of them
to be the champ and walk away with a CNR
prize pack. I'm gonna ask a question and then give
three debatable answers to choose from the six of us
in studio. Are going to write down our answers on
these dry erase boards. Hold them up, boys, So get
onto our YouTube channel right now. Then on the count
of three, caller shouts out his answer, Isaiah, you got

(01:23:58):
to match with four out of the six of us
to win the round or no matter his answer. If
all six of us match, he automatically gets that round.

Speaker 8 (01:24:06):
Are you ready?

Speaker 4 (01:24:07):
Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 8 (01:24:08):
All right, here we go. Round one.

Speaker 1 (01:24:10):
Let's start with the relationship category. Let's go and by
the way, Bursh's here on his last day at fsr Oh.

Speaker 4 (01:24:17):
This is a bye bye bersa moment.

Speaker 1 (01:24:19):
His better half is here to witness those relationship category,
Which of these is worse when trying to watch a
show with your significant other, her face is stuck in
her phone, she starts comparing scenes to your personal life,
or she keeps getting up to do other things, which

(01:24:40):
is worse. Face in her phone starts comparing scenes to
your personal life, or she keeps getting up to do
other things.

Speaker 3 (01:24:48):
And the question is when you're watching a show with
your significant Yeah, right, when you're watching a show?

Speaker 4 (01:24:56):
Got it all?

Speaker 8 (01:24:57):
Writing our answers down.

Speaker 1 (01:25:00):
And let me know when you're locked in, yes, yes,
like all right, and we need Isaiah's answer on the
count of three, one, two.

Speaker 11 (01:25:08):
Three, stuck in face stuck in the phone.

Speaker 8 (01:25:11):
Facing the phone. All right, We start with Steve Covino.

Speaker 3 (01:25:15):
I mean, I think everybody's face is stuck in the
phone nowadays. So I'm saying getting up, because that's even
more rude. Now, like if you're getting up doing things that,
to me, that's more rude. So I said getting up.
This guy's a clown.

Speaker 4 (01:25:26):
Isaiah. I'm with you when you're watching a show and.

Speaker 3 (01:25:29):
You're trying to follow a plotline, even if it's a
reality show, and you look over to me, you're putting
your phone down. The guy that had fourteen hours on
his phone last week, dude, I put my phone.

Speaker 4 (01:25:37):
Down, and I'll turn to my wife.

Speaker 3 (01:25:38):
But can you believe and if she's looking at her phone,
I feel disrespected phone.

Speaker 4 (01:25:43):
All right, that's just the way of the world.

Speaker 9 (01:25:45):
You know.

Speaker 3 (01:25:45):
They're actually making shows that are dumb. You could watch
along with your phone. All right, we go to dan
byer facing phone.

Speaker 4 (01:25:53):
There you go.

Speaker 8 (01:25:54):
All right, two points four, we go to bursh uh.

Speaker 4 (01:25:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (01:25:58):
So this was This was hard to answer with my
wife standing right in front of me. So I think
probably what would be the worst out of these three
is like when the villain in a show does something
and she turns to me and she's like, oh, this
is like the time when you did this, right, huh yeah,
isn't that terrible?

Speaker 3 (01:26:16):
So I said personal life on this who oh, sort
of like what she watches bridgeton and she's like, you
are not.

Speaker 1 (01:26:23):
I was close to agreeing with Bursch because I don't
like those comparisons either, because it takes you out of
the fantasy of the show too. But I also said
facing phone because I do cove I do put my
phone away when we're trying to watch an episode of
you Know, your Friends and neighbors, and I look over
and she missed something because she's looking at you know,
online shopping.

Speaker 4 (01:26:42):
Jinny. What I'm saying is I sometimes look at my wife.

Speaker 3 (01:26:45):
Cavino makes one of because I say, I look at
my wife, but for a reactionally, oh my.

Speaker 4 (01:26:48):
God, babe. And if she's not feeling what I'm feeling
because she's scrolling.

Speaker 1 (01:26:53):
All right, Well, it all comes down to Iowa, Samuel
right now, I thought it?

Speaker 8 (01:26:56):
Did?

Speaker 9 (01:26:59):
I think?

Speaker 13 (01:27:00):
So?

Speaker 11 (01:27:00):
When you're actually missing part of what you're watching, that's
the worst. So I said, keep leaving.

Speaker 1 (01:27:08):
So Isaiah doesn't get that round, but Sorryiah got a
few more here.

Speaker 19 (01:27:12):
A few more tries is was Sam's girlfriend goes out
to the shed in the backyard.

Speaker 8 (01:27:17):
Yes, are you all right?

Speaker 1 (01:27:20):
Round two? Let's go to the lifestyle category. This is
fitting because of what's happening on our show next week.

Speaker 6 (01:27:26):
Which is the.

Speaker 1 (01:27:26):
Better vacation destination, Rome, Maui, or Tokyo. These are all
listed as a top three favorite destinations. Rome Maui or Tokyo.
Let me know when you're locked in?

Speaker 4 (01:27:44):
Locked in?

Speaker 1 (01:27:46):
All right, Isaiah, one, two three, go Maui, he says, Maui.

Speaker 8 (01:27:52):
We go in reverse order. We start with Iowa.

Speaker 11 (01:27:54):
Sam been a Maui beautiful spot. But I said a Rome.
A food man, come on the story.

Speaker 1 (01:28:01):
But history man, nothing beats Maui. So he gets a
point from me. All right, what say you bush?

Speaker 18 (01:28:09):
Uh?

Speaker 9 (01:28:09):
Yeah, I figured you would say Maui. I think that's
a strong answer. I was in Tokyo a couple of
weeks ago and I loved it.

Speaker 8 (01:28:18):
Yes it was your honeymoon, right, Yes, yeah it was. dB.
Give me Rome.

Speaker 1 (01:28:26):
That's all right, Jim Room. Mathematically he's out right. But
what'd you say, Rich?

Speaker 4 (01:28:35):
I mean Maui. I'm with you, bro. That's where Rich
does his favorite sex move.

Speaker 3 (01:28:39):
You know, that's when when the kids are sleeping. I
call it the Maui plowy. You don't have to beat that, salmon.
I'm letting it go. Would you say Tokyo's great? I've
been there. I'm actually going this week and then I'm
going to Korea after that.

Speaker 4 (01:28:55):
Wow, Now he's great. I've never been to Rome.

Speaker 3 (01:28:58):
It's got to be romunds like more historical and I
don't know it's career, are you actually? Yeah, I'm getting
a Kim jong Und haircut.

Speaker 1 (01:29:08):
By the way, please support our show next week when
Dan Byer and Moncy Philler.

Speaker 8 (01:29:15):
All right, so we go to round three.

Speaker 1 (01:29:17):
You need to get on the board here, Isaiah, I'm
gonna go to the sports category. All right, listen to
these choices and I'll repeat them, but listen closely. What's
worse being the pitcher who gives up a clutch homer
and and then the hitter bat flips Being the defender
in the paint who gets dunked on and posterized, or
being the linebacker who gets trucked and pushed backwards into.

Speaker 8 (01:29:37):
The end zone by a running back.

Speaker 1 (01:29:39):
Sorry one more time, Yeah, so the pitcher who gives
up a clutch homer and the hitter bat flips on
you being the defender in the paint who gets dunked
on and posterized, or being a linebacker who gets trucked
and pushed backwards into the end zone by a running back,
which is worse?

Speaker 4 (01:29:57):
Locked in?

Speaker 8 (01:29:59):
All right, all writing our answers down, Lucky doodle, Dan,
let me know when you're locked.

Speaker 1 (01:30:04):
I'm locked, locked, Isaiah on the counter of three, one
two three, dunked on posterized, he says, posterized. Do we
start with Steve Covino.

Speaker 3 (01:30:16):
It's gotta be dunked on poster rise. That's a lasting image.
You're posterized, You're embarrassed. It's like you just got dunked
on boom, all right, Rich you know now that you're
saying it. They make posters of dunks like I remember
my friends would have the John Starks dunking over Jordan poster.
But I feel like you could just be bedfooting and

(01:30:37):
it's just not as embarrassing. I feel like if you're
a pitcher on the mound and you give up a
key home run to me, that's like, oh, there's no
more empty feeling if you were pitched in any level.
If you give a home home run up, you feel
like a piece of garbage.

Speaker 19 (01:30:51):
All right, we go to dan Byer Lucky to save
had all three of these happened to me and my
my high school career.

Speaker 8 (01:30:58):
Oh, posterized is the point? And we go to Bersh.

Speaker 9 (01:31:03):
I said, dunked on, No, that's what we need.

Speaker 4 (01:31:06):
One more.

Speaker 8 (01:31:07):
I also said poster just for fun, sam What did
you say?

Speaker 4 (01:31:13):
I also said, the defender in the paint getting dunked on?

Speaker 1 (01:31:16):
All right, halfway halfway to see in our prize pact
for Isaya in Boise. We go to round four, the
music category. Which of these instruments is the most impressive
to shred on in front of a live audience? The drums,
the saxophone, or the piano?

Speaker 4 (01:31:34):
Easy?

Speaker 8 (01:31:35):
You think?

Speaker 3 (01:31:35):
So?

Speaker 1 (01:31:36):
There's a lot of arguing online about this music category.
Which of these instruments is the most impressive to shred
on in front of a live audience? The drums, the saxophone,
or the piano?

Speaker 4 (01:31:46):
Locked?

Speaker 11 (01:31:47):
Wait, there's a there's an instrument missing where that term
shred actually comes from.

Speaker 1 (01:31:53):
Right, that would be a runaway Okay, all right, thanks,
So we're all writing our answers down. All right, all right,
and Isaiah, we need your answer on the counter. Three
one two, three.

Speaker 8 (01:32:07):
Drums, he says, drums.

Speaker 9 (01:32:10):
All right.

Speaker 8 (01:32:10):
We go in reverse order. We start with Io Samuel.

Speaker 11 (01:32:14):
I think this is a personal favorite, I said, the saxophone. Clinton,
I love I love Kenny g I love a good
sax solo. Man.

Speaker 4 (01:32:27):
It gets me going. Is that Baker Street.

Speaker 3 (01:32:30):
Can you isolate that by the way, A good sax
solo gets me going.

Speaker 1 (01:32:35):
But the question was the most impressive. I feel like
there's a lot of impressive drummers, but when someone really
gets going crazy on the piano, we were just talking
about still dri I said, piano, all right, we go
to bursh I.

Speaker 9 (01:32:49):
Think when you go to a show where there's a
drum solo baked into the show, where the rest of
the band leaves and there's I've never been to a
single show where that's happened, and it's not been impressive.
So I said a drum.

Speaker 19 (01:33:01):
Point, all right, TV, I've never been to a show
where I didn't leave when the drum solo started.

Speaker 8 (01:33:05):
So I said sax.

Speaker 3 (01:33:08):
Saxophone, say, well, I feel like you could fake a
drum solo. You could give me a pair of drumsticks
that I could be like. And I played a saxophone
in high school. Not impressive. Billy Joel, He's a piano man.
Alicia Keys plays a piano. There's nothing more pressive than
someone on a piano. Guys are bavoons good jar it

(01:33:28):
is number one piano. It's drums easy. It's the easiest
answer is drums. There's nothing more impressive. Dan, I can't
believe you get up in the middle of the drum solo.
Sometimes they have dueling drum players. Sorry Tom, dueling drum bar.
It's a doing piano bar. You cloud, who do you are?

Speaker 8 (01:33:43):
A crocodile?

Speaker 4 (01:33:44):
Rock boy?

Speaker 1 (01:33:44):
Nobody hears on the same brainway. Yeah, Isaiah, I'm sorry.
There's only one category left you need to to win,
so that ends your run. Here gives us a couple
of minutes to say goodbye to bersh.

Speaker 11 (01:33:55):
Doesn't thank you, guys, this was the last one.

Speaker 8 (01:34:00):
No, no, they're right. I'm so sorry. You're right TV.
All right, so here we go.

Speaker 4 (01:34:04):
This is your last chance.

Speaker 8 (01:34:05):
Looks like somebody start a vacation early. Yeah, no, thank
you for keeping the score. All right, here we go,
last chance. We'll go back to the sports category.

Speaker 1 (01:34:14):
Which of these cities would you rather live and play
pro sports in Saint Louis, Buffalo or Salt Lake City?

Speaker 4 (01:34:23):
Oh boy, which of the cities we have affiliates?

Speaker 1 (01:34:27):
Or would you rather live and play pro sports in
Saint Louis, Buffalo or Salt Lake?

Speaker 4 (01:34:32):

I don't want to be in Buffalo, A little bit
of bandit lately though Buffalo's too cold.

Speaker 4 (01:34:59):

Saint Louis.

Speaker 8 (01:35:02):
Still dan Byer. Have you guys been to Saint Louis.

Speaker 4 (01:35:05):

Speaker 8 (01:35:07):
That place is awful. Buffalo you were like a year ago.

Speaker 4 (01:35:13):
You loved it and.

Speaker 9 (01:35:16):
Love Bill's Mafia. The food in Buffalo is fantastic. I went, Buffalo,
We're all over.

Speaker 1 (01:35:22):
Well, I gave you a point, Isaiah, I said, salt Lake.

Speaker 8 (01:35:26):
Beautiful? What'd you say for fun? Iowa was him? I said, Buffalo?

Speaker 3 (01:35:31):
Oh, Isaiah on a different wave like wave, I.

Should say, Isaiah, thank you for listening every day in
Idaho and playing the game.

Speaker 4 (01:35:41):
Than you guys, Thank you man, have a great, great weekend.

Speaker 3 (01:35:46):
And like Danny G said, this is a farewell and
a goodbye to our good pal Bershee Boy, Ryan Boy,
tremendous run here at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 4 (01:35:58):
He was walking on it these hallways long before we
got here.

Speaker 3 (01:36:01):
Yeah, and jay Stu, I know you, uh, you wanted
to say your own farewell jay Stu.

Speaker 4 (01:36:06):
Let's talk about Jay Stu to the show.

Speaker 17 (01:36:08):
First of all, thanks for having me on your show.
I love being on this program. I will be on
the program all next week with Dan Byer and wantson
Bond's j Stu. But it's not about me. I'm not
gonna make this about me. I'm gonna make it about
Ryan Berschinger. I'm gonna speak for the network here for
a second and say that nobody is nicer and nobody
laughs at your jokes harder than Ryan Berschinger job. So interpersonally,

(01:36:30):
he's just a great guy to have around and he's
going to be missed professionally speaking. The very first person
that I met when I walked in the building at
Fox Sports Radio five years ago, with Ryan Berschinger. He
was assigned with teaching me the ropes, showing me the place.
It realized it kind of it dawned on me like
six months later that Ryan Berschinger could do my job,

(01:36:53):
and he was told to train this new guy to
do a job that he was qualified to do. He
was completely gracious and unselfish. He could have resented me,
he could have sabotaged me, but he was so generous
and that lived out for the next five years. He's
a professional, He's proactive. He takes the initiative in this

(01:37:13):
creative space that we all exist in. You want somebody
to bring you ideas, you want somebody to ask you
if they could help. Ryan Berschinger does that. Anybody could
just show up and do what they're supposed to do.
Ryan Berschinger went above and beyond that, and he became
the one word that all of us try to become

(01:37:33):
when we leave a shop, and that's irreplaceable. If that's
a word, Yeah, be replaced.

Speaker 9 (01:37:39):
Thank you.

Speaker 4 (01:37:39):
Hey, you're ell, said Jay Stu.

Speaker 3 (01:37:42):
And man, you're gonna be missed Ryan for sure. But
I don't want to take any time away from dB
because you guys had a long run too, right, I
mean over ten years together working.

Speaker 8 (01:37:52):
Yeah we did.

Speaker 19 (01:37:53):
Yeah. So I've loved working with Ryan throughout those years,
even when he started as an intern. So I know
he's off to bigger and better things, but he is
someone that I trusted wholeheartedly. When we were ever doing
shows or working together. So he will be sorely missed.
He's made a lot of friends here we saw with
everything that I told him, I said, I'm gonna miss
him more as a worker than an actual friend, because

(01:38:14):
that's how good of an employee he was.

Speaker 4 (01:38:18):
And now it's time with the Express pros Pro the Week.

Speaker 3 (01:38:22):
It's gotta be Chitlin Brunson, because for a minute you're like, Wow,
the Hawk's gonna pull this off, and then all of
a sudden, the Knicks start playing like a team that
looks like a real threat in the East. So Jaalin Brunson,
you're Express pros Pro the Week. Now before we get
to weekend, Hobnobin the guy that's been here for over
a decade, long before Covino and Rich took our talents
to South Beach, long before we came here. Ryan Bersch

(01:38:43):
was around the hallways here, and a guy that's gonna
be sorely missed. So bursh the mic is yours, farewell,
my friend, what's going on?

Speaker 9 (01:38:50):
Well, it's incredibly kind of you guys to give me
any of your airtime. That's so nice. It's not lost
on me that it's incredibly rare to get to do
something that you genuinely enjoy for a living, and it's
even more rare to be able to do that with

(01:39:11):
people that you love doing it with. I am going
to miss seeing all of you around because the people
here are great, great people. It is a ton of
fun to spend every single day with you, and to
not have you in my life every single day, it's
gonna be tough. I'm gonna miss you guys so much.
I thank you all so much for just being who

(01:39:31):
you are. It's so important because this is radio people,
you have to be who you are. You have to
be real.

Speaker 6 (01:39:37):
You know.

Speaker 9 (01:39:38):
Sometimes people listen to these shows and they think people
are just putting on a character. No you can't. You
can't do three at four hours a day as someone else.
Everybody here is super genuine, super real and I love
you all, so thank you all so much for giving
me this opportunity. And this won't be the last you
see of me because I'm doing some other stuff in
this industry and I'm very excited about it, so I'll

(01:39:59):
see you all again.

Speaker 4 (01:40:00):
Thank you. I am Birshinger. It's been a pleasure.

Speaker 18 (01:40:04):

Speaker 4 (01:40:04):
