Speaker 3 (01:37):
Out some unique awards as we hit the mid season
point of the baseball season.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Well yeah, because I know we're running out of time
because we still got to get to the Spurs announcer.
So I want everyone to start thinking about this. The
Spurs play by play dude, young dude, Jacob Toby got
caught cheating on his girlfriend with one of the player's sisters.
The update is that he got fired from the job.
I want to know your thoughts on that, So think
(02:01):
about it, Let it simmer, let it settle, and we'll
get to your phone calls later, because right now, every
Thursday we throw it back in reminisce Old School and
fifty hits, and today we honor Tom Hanks on his
seventieth birthday. And Rich, if you were to just throw
it out there, when do you believe his professional acting
career began, like, just throw it out there.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
What year? I'm going to assume late seventies, early eighties,
So like nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Okay, on He Knows You're Alone. I believe that was
a TV show. He was on the Love Boat in
nineteen eighty.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Bosom Buddy Boat, I know, right.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Bosom Buddy started in nineteen eighty through eighty two, where
he was one of the stars of the show, and
that's where he became a name, kind of a name.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
He also made some cameos.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
On Taxi in eighty two, Happy Days, as we mentioned,
family Ties in eighty three, and then his big, big
breakout moment and we probably all remember this was splashed
in nineteen eighty four with Eugene Levy and I'm sorry
Eugene Levy and John Candy, So that was eighty four.
But let me tell you this to start the discussion. Okay,
(03:03):
there's been different levels of Tom Hanks young, comedic, funny
Tom Hanks, serious, Tom Hanks coach League of their own
Tom Hanks.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Levels, levels, levels, He's got levels. Dude.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
On his birthday, we already established that no one dude
has the same top four Tom Hanks movies.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Today, we ask you who's his best role? What's your
favorite character that he ever played?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Minus far As Gump only because that's probably an obvious answer. Yes, right,
so minus far As Gump. In nineteen eighty four, after Splash,
he was in a movie that goes under the radar,
but it was one of the last great eighties like
goofy newdy comedies, like you know, like the porky style
(03:50):
goofy eighties comedies. And that's when he played Rick Gasco
in the movie Bachelor Party. So I know it's it's
like a weird answer, but I really mean it. I
loved him in that movie and in that era. I
love that era of Tom Hanks when I was young
and funny and goofy, and that movie really is a
great underrated movie.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
So I'm going I'm going rogue here.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Rick Gasco was one of my favorite Tom Hanks characters
because That's what put him on the map for me,
and I paid close attention to his career after that.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Danny g Anything come to my few. Oh my god, Danny,
she's wearing our grilling ape.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I am all right, so honor, Yeah, I wish I
had some in front of me.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Here. That's a hot item.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Look at Look at the junk gazing going on.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Look at that.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
So if you're on the YouTube channel, these boxes just arrived.
So if you were one of our winners the past
month or so, these are going to be shipped out
very soon.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Our summer grilling aprons are here, all right.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
So here's what I'm gonna do. I wrote down my
favorite Tom Hanks character. So the first caller that matches
mine nice is gonna get one, and then I'll give
a second one away. It's just an impressive phone call
to you guys. You guys tell me to hey, hold
that caller and I'll give them.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
All right, Well, you better say one for my mom
because she's been bothering me for one of those.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Yeah. Man, there's so many great answers here. What is
the best Tom Hanks character other than Forrest Gump? Because,
like we said, no two people on Planet Earth have
the same four favorite Tom Hanks movies. We've established that
for years. So now the question is if you're gonna
take Gump out of the equation. Man, I don't know
if I want to go sentimental and sweet like Sam
(05:32):
Baldwin Sleepless in Seattle, or do I go Josh from Big,
playful Tom Hanks who turns into a kid and then
comes back like that character.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's a good one. It's a great, great movie, man,
and it still holds up.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
And you know, you notice as as an adult how
serious it is in the beginning, like the mom has
a freak out when when he's a grown up adult
in her house, like it's sad and he goes running
out the housing.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
It's sad. Great movie, big, So what's your answer, buddy.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I think I'm gonna go I think I'm going Josh
and Big. I think that's I think Big is That's
nineteen eighty eight. By the way, it was a huge
movie for I think it was because it combined the
childlike fun of Hanks, like it was a combination of
eighties fun Hanks. I love your answer, bro, but also
(06:24):
a little bit of like serious, like like good acting.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I love the explanation, I really do. It's a perfect
explanation of why Big was special for him. You got
all things Hanks in one movie, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
I do. I think.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I think because he plays the versatile like he's a kid,
but he's not like that's it brings to multiple layers,
Oh Hanks, where he's eating those little corns at the
sophisticated banquet like yes, and he has his best friend
with the spiky anti letx haircut.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Do remember his little friend with the Simon Lebon haircut?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Of course, Chalina walking down the street ten times a week.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
I said it, read it. I broke with my mama's credit.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
All right, so we're going to the front.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I just thought of another one.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Answer. I don't take the lines are loaded.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Because they're all great. That's what makes all special. See,
I don't think anyone will say this. I think he
is the most lovable portrayal of a foreign dude stuck
in an airport. The Terminal is so underrated, and Victor
when he played Victor in the Terminal.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Okay, but Josh is your answer the Big I'm sticking
with Bachelor Party because I really that's what put him
on the map for me. And you know that's when
I fell in love with the very lovable Tom Hanks.
Danny G do you have Well, no, Danny G can't
give his answer because if you could match his answer,
you win a prize. Sam, you got one that stands out.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
For you as one of my favorite characters he played. Yeah, well,
I love I mean, I don't want to take too many.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Just one one right, just one?
Speaker 5 (07:53):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Jim Lovell in Apollo thirteen
is one of my thirteen. Jim lovel just passed away
less than a year ago, the real life Jim, the
real gym level. But I don't know if like his
performance is like one of his best. But I think
that cast with Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, who was it
Ed Harris? Yeah, what a great cast. I mean, incredible cast,
(08:15):
an incredible story.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I know dB is super busy with the World Cup
updates and everything else going on, But Dan, I know
you got to be.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
A Tom Hanks guy.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
He's not a movie guy.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah, but ta everybody loves Tom Hanks.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I I don't know the character's name, I can't remember
find it, No, but I thought he was great in Philadelphia.
Oh yeah, you know that was a turn from the
normal Tom Hanks. That No, let me bounce something off Dan.
I know you're a big mister Rogers fan. Did you
see a beautiful Day in the neighborhood?
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yes? Did you like it? I don't like people touching.
You know that. I thought i'd say it should just
let it be as it is. You know, I haven't
finished it. I was a little bored by it, and
I'm a big Fred Rogers guy.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
But in Philadelphia nineteen ninety three, he played the character
Andrew Beckett.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
So that's DB's painful movie, and that was a very
pivotal role. Like Dan explained, like that was like, all right,
here's series about as serious of a Hanks you can
zell yep his lawyer. All right, So if you could
match Danny G's answer, you win a prize. If you
have like a great explanation or cove or something else
that stands out, we'll give you another prize. But what's
(09:21):
your favorite role that he ever played? I was saying,
brings up a great one. Can I go back to
you Sam for a second? We said Apollo thirteen. That
movie is a remarkably underrated movie. I feel like I
would love to throw that on right now and watch it.
But I wonder if it wasn't Hanks, would it be
as good.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
I think he brings that movie to life in a
new way him playing gym level that. That's such a
great answer, because Hanks makes that movie. I know it's
a great cast. But man, what was the less time
he saw apollofy.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I was just gonna say that, dude, that came out
right when I graduate, right after I.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Graduated, is insane. Garry Snie is in it. I forgot.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I mean a watch, I mean I think that, Yeah,
he is. Really he's definitely an anchor of the film.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Yeah, Rich, I know you don't have cable anymore, but
it's one of those movies where once in a while,
if it's certain cable channel will be playing watch that
movie and yeah, you just leave it on.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
All right?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
So now we turn to you Fox Sports Radio Nation,
most interactive show on radio eight seven seven ninety nine
one Fox, and of course the feedback on the live
chat at Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Danny G. Who are we starting with? All right, let's
start with Chance in Alabama? What up? Chance?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Man?
Speaker 7 (10:28):
I thought you were gonna start naming them all.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
Philadelphia was great.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Are you from Queen Bow, Alabama?
Speaker 8 (10:35):
He said, no, Forrest gumpany I was like, oh, man
from Alabama, but it's not my favorite anyways, but Philadelphia, man,
my two favorite actors.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
Denzel and Tom Hanks.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Tom Haiks one Denzel too. But there's so many, man.
Speaker 9 (10:48):
I wish you give me a.
Speaker 8 (10:48):
Hint on the genre. But I'm between two.
Speaker 10 (10:53):
Man, my kids will toy Star, but that's that's not me.
The burbs touch me if you can leave their own.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Got to pick.
Speaker 8 (11:01):
One, dude, Okay, I'm between Saving Pirate Ryan.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Two of his best movies. That's a good choice.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
He's Captain Miller in Saving Private Ryan Captain Miller nineteen
ninety eight.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
He brought up something wild that for in someone else's career,
if they were Woody from Toy Story, that would be
like all all you needed to just have an illustrious,
amazing career, you know how you said, that's like a
side note of Tom Hanks.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
When all said and done, we're going to respect Lebron
in a different way. When all said and done, Tom
Hanks is gonna go down like the Clark Gable, the
Humphrey moguard of our time like he's.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Those guys couldn't do with Tom Hanks does.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
That's what I'm saying. They represent an era of like,
you know, film history. He's gonna be a guy that
did it all and everybody loved him like and he's
so relatable.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
And that's why these roles residents on Disney Plus. Disney
and Pixar have a Toy Story five behind the scenes movie.
Make sure it's it's a little mini documentary. Make sure
you check that out, because the way they convinced Tom
Hanks to join their original cast is an amazing story.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
That's Danny Gat We're still waiting to hear his answer.
Maybe you got it eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Who we got Danny.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Let's go to North Cacilaca. Eric?
Speaker 3 (12:15):
What? Eric? All right?
Speaker 7 (12:18):
Guess I know you were talking about it, but it's
gotta be Woody. I turned thirty seven yesterday, so I
was six years old when it came out.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Man, did you see the fifth one yet?
Speaker 1 (12:27):
By the way, did you see that?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Eric?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Haven't yet?
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Want to, but I haven't been able to see it yet.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Mattaya, you're gonna cry. I am mad enough to admit
I was tearing up in the theater. I brought my
two kids, my wife, and I it is the fifth
one might be the best one. And I'm not being
a prisoner of the moment.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
It was that good humblown way that the first toy
story came out in ninety five or ninety six.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yeah, that's insane.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
That's not Danny G's answer. No, I'm shocked because your
son loves it.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
And by the way, a.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Little fun he's more of a buzz guy, but he
loves toy story.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Fun fact is when it comes to a lot of
the projects for a toy story and the toy line
like if anyone ever had the toy and you pulled
the string and you heard there's a snake in my boot.
Anytime that Tom Hanks is too busy. Jim Hanks, his
brother is the voice. So his brother Jim, who looks
a lot like Tom. Jim is also Yeah, he sounds
(13:17):
like him, so he's the like secondary voice Andy. And
he's also the stand in in Forrest Gump. He was
in that movie too. So not only is uh not
only is Tom Hanks a great guy and a great actor,
He's a great brother giving his giving bones to Jim.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
You know, uh, you know what clip was making the
rounds on social media. Did you see when he was
filming Forrest Gump and they were at first they were
gonna have the the boy that was cast at as
young Forrest try to change his accent and like no, no, no,
no talk again. And that little kid that had such
the accent.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, he inspired the whole movies.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
The whole movie is based on Tom Hanks essentially saying no, no,
I'm just gonna do his voice as a grown up.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, that's all awesome. I love that story. So let's
go I.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Love that story. Let's go back to the phones.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Because now, really, I thought for sure Danny G's favorite
was going to be Woody. I thought he had it there.
What do we got Dan to j Let's go to
Vegas your boy trip?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Hey, hey trip?
Speaker 9 (14:14):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (14:15):
My favorite one would be when he played Joseph Say
so that would be Carl Hanratty because I don't think, oh,
that movie would be good if Tom.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
Hanks was not.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
So look at look at my page here, FBI agent
Carl Hanratty.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
If you can't, wow, it's such a good movie.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Trip is going to be one of the first in
Vegas with one of these grill and aprons.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Dude, and you know what, very deserving of it because
you're always participating.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
We appreciate that. So catch me if you're if you
can yours. Yeah, that's another movie.
Speaker 5 (14:48):
If it comes on, it's like, I don't know, it's
like two and a half, three hours something.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
If it comes on, you're watching it. Oh trip, congratulations.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
His character in that movie rich He had to show
a lot of empathy because he then helped Leo's character sure,
you know, after he busted him finally.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Thinking about how many times Hank's has made us the
most manly of us emotional because I was saying to
I was saying during the break that not only the
Toy Story movies and you know, Sleepless in Seattle and
the rom coms you've probably seen with girlfriends in the past,
you've got Males of the World.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
That's a great movie.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
The the ending of Castaway when unfortunately Hank sees his
you know, his ex, his his wife had moved on,
and he doesn't know really where he belongs in the
world anymore, and he's and he's driving down that road.
I was like, Sam, is there a more emotional Hank
scene than that?
Speaker 5 (15:43):
It's so good? And isn't the the husband? It's Helen
Hunt right is his wife? She marries mister Big from
Sex and the City.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Yeah. Yeah, who.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
By the way, I saw recently here right here in
Sherman Oaks having a coffee. Catch me if you can
two thousand and two, O geez Luise eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox your favorite Tom Hanks role. So
we already gave away one prize, trip if you could
give us another. I really feel Rich gave a great
(16:12):
explanation as to why his character in Big Josh. Might
be a great answer because you get all layers of
Tom Hanks play full, goofy, comedic Tom Hanks and serious
Tom Hanks. I think it was a great explanation. If
you could wow us with your explanation, maybe we'll give
you another prize.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
How about that.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
We'll take like four more phone calls and then we'll
move on us old school and fifty hits.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Who do we got, Danny j go to them mon
Channa meg Hey, meg Hey, guys hey meg OHI meg
oh huh.
Speaker 9 (16:41):
Yeah, Well definitely Joss Baskins and Big deserves a big
tip of the cops. That was the top of my list.
But I think a sneaky good role of his and
a shameless Meg Ryan Tom Hanks chick flick was You've
got mail, Joe Fox.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
That's such a great Fox.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Can you know, ca, you know miss that one because
I guarantee Covino was like, dude, I was, I was
out chasing Tail in the two thousand.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
No, you're right, Yeah, isn't a young Dave Chappelle in
that movie.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Dave Chappelle's best friend. Chappelle's best friend, a young Dave
Chappelle that's sort of more of an unknown Tom Hanks givin'
plays like Fox, who's like the owner of like a
big like a Barnes and Noble kind of like a
Barnes and Noble type. And Meg Ryan owns like.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
The local indiend bookstore.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Yeah, and she doesn't realize she felt, she doesn't realize
she's interested in like the guy taking down her small bookstore?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Was it more of a Borders bookstore back in the day.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Which they've got this email relationship back and forth, and
they don't like they know each other in real life
I can't. It's been a long time since you. Yeah,
but I know they don't even know that they're that
they don't know each other. Are the emailing Yeah, I've
never seen it, but I know Chappelle's in that one.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
And Rich I'll ask you a quick trivia question, since
you and Meg both agree that Josh and Big might
be the character. When he had to steal his dad's
clothes to get out of the house, what what team
sweatshirt is he wearing?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
How am I drawing a Blanke on this?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
He grabs his dad because you know, he's a grown
up now, so he grabs his dad's clothes and runs
out the house. Quiz Tom, quiz hot shot. I'll give
you a hand. It's a football team.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
He wears a.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Hey.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
You know what if anybody knows, Hey, yo, coch I
was gonna ask you, did you know that the scene
in Fao Sports where they're dancing on the piano, they
wanted to like they want to sort of like fake
it or use use like stunt doubles or like fake
and Tom Hanks is like, no, I want to learn
it and do it. And that is Tom Hanks learning
(18:44):
the moves and dancing and here's.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Here's the takeaway too, guys, especially in Hollywood, there's so
many people that you love and they let you down.
You hear some salacious, terrible story about them. Tom Hanks
is one of the last. Like few guys we throw
Matt Damon in that kind of gory two because he's
likable and even he's with his high school sweetheart still.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Keanu is a great one guy who like watches.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
And like Tom Hanks, there's something that seems so humble
about him still, even though he's a big time superstar,
he's so likable. So you got to embrace people when
they're still here. He's seventy years old today. Uh, we'll
wrap it up with a few more phone calls. Best
Tom Hanks rolls and why who do we got Danny?
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Let's go to Virginia, Ken, Ken, what up?
Speaker 9 (19:26):
Hey? What's up? Guys.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
I can't believe this one hasn't come up yet.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
But The Green Mile, which is one of the most
one of the best books written.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
It's a I mean that tell me, no one tell me.
Speaker 11 (19:39):
If you didn't cry into that movie, then you're a lying.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
John Colfree Ball that's a hard one.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It's funny you would bring that up because I was
just looking at his IMDb. I was cheating here for
a second.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Due that goes so under the radar though, really don'
within a.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Within a year he made Green Mile and Saving Private Ryan,
which we're both like, you know, cut from the the
military and like, you know, corrections cloth like that. That
Tom Hanks is awesome in itself too, So like there's
so many layers of Hanks.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
You guys want Ken to be in the running.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I do.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, yeah, he goes under the radar. You know, do
you think Tom Hanks just picks good roles or does
he just make every movie that much better? Because what
makes us crazy is that he's got so many, like
great movies under his belt.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay, have a I have a Tom Hanks question for
all you guys. Yeah, being that worth sweating this guy
deservingly so.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yeah, but I mean, these are these movies are relatable
and meaningful to all of.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Us, deservingly. So if anyone deserves props on their seventieth birthday,
it's Tom Hanks. We keep listing all these movies that
are legendary. Oh my god, you know, I gotta throw
on Castaway again. Pubblo thirteen. It is going to be
the same with ad him. None even mentioned money Pit.
Yet you mentioned Bachelor Party, which is like my dad's
favorite movie.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
The I love the money Pit.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
All these, all these and what a reference? Two weeks
and anytime someone had some type of home repair in
the eighties or nineties, they made some money Pit reference, right,
you know, it's interesting. Of all these movies, let's all admit,
is there one you missed along the way, like Cavino
never saw You've Got Mail?
Speaker 1 (21:15):
No, I haven't.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Or Sleepless in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, I missed the rom com Era.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I'll tell you what I missed. You You and Spot
have referenced this movie and I've never seen it. What
which one? I have never seen that thing? You do?
Oh my god, dude, you gotta watch that.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I know I heard it on TV, but I've never
seen it front to back. Oh man, it is so underrated.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
You gotta definitely invest some time and watch it. I
think you'd really love it. It's it's a fun story
about this band.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
How about this? How about this? How do we do
a little hanks work instead of homework? You do you?
You could choose Sleepless in Seattle or You've Got Mail.
They're both hour and a half rom coms. Picked with your.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Girl, Hank's work assignments Tonight's Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Well I'll watch the oneaters that I always see you
guys talking about thing you do? You watch You've Got
Mail or Sleepless in Seattle. I think you'll like Sleepless
in Seattle because it's based on a like a radio
host and a call in show. I think you'd like
that angle.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Dude, you know how crazy your career has to be
if that thing you do is like, uh, like an afterthought,
isn't that wild? Because that's such a good movie.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
And that's not only that, that's not only the movie
the only movie where he plays a music manager. He
plays kind of an evil one in another movie. Do
you guys know what I'm talking about? Yeah, Elvis, Elvis
and then so yeah, and then it's so funny because
he's played, like you said, like authority figures, like in
The Green Mile, and he's a captain. He's Captain Miller
and saving Private Ryan. He's he's got like Captain Phil
(22:40):
he's Captain Phillips too, and he's Sully. He still he's
always a captain. He's got all these different like genres
that he's in. He's an astronaut, he's a captain.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Yeah, he's the Hanks. That's it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Let's do one more call and then we'll go.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
We'll go rapid fire on the other side. Okay, cool
for now. James in Virginia, Hey James.
Speaker 8 (22:59):
Oh things taking my call? Gentlemen, Happy Thursday, Big Time,
all the time, every time. Commanders. Man, you guys have
lists off a lot of great movies. I think Big
was my first introduction to Tom Hanks and he was
wearing the Giants, uh, sweat it. And I ain't looked
that up, man, because that, like I said, that was
(23:20):
one of my first ever. But as soon as you
were saying that, I was throwing it out there.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
You know, let's let's look up, let's look up. Let's
hook up, James, James, Let's hook James, James, James.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
We just want to we want to picture of you
wearing it, grilling up this summer, all right.
Speaker 8 (23:38):
That sounds like a great idea, right, and throw my
little girl in there with me. Too, But but for me, man,
the two. I mean, like you said, you got to
take Forrest jump out because everybody loves Forrest gump Man
and you guys listened on so many good ones. One
Vint thing I've heard is Da Vinci Code. He was
great in that movie, a very smart character. But my
(24:02):
favorite has to be Castaway Man as a ups driver.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Man.
Speaker 8 (24:06):
I know the set X Man, but that movie, man,
it was just all Tom Hanks. All the whole movie
with Tom Hanks, and you got to watch him and
go through the whole motion with him, from when he
was really big so really small with the spears and
throwing spears at the fish man and then surviving the
way a waking them up like that movie right there
(24:26):
was He carried the whole movie because it was just
Tom Hanks. There was really nobody else except for in
the beginning and in the end.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Man.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Yeah, to call it a masterclass.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Not only do you win because you got the giant
sweatshirt and big, but your explanation here was great.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
He was the whole movie. Yeah, he's talking to a volleyball.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
He played Chuck Noland in Castaway, in Robert Langdon in
Da Vinci Code, so great characters. The rest of your answers. Next,
we'll do a little crossfire and we're gonna get into
this really salacious, controversial Spurs announcer story.

that is my own time.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
You just did right now, So thank you for bringing
up we mentioned an hour ago that.
Speaker 10 (28:17):
Big Mike Sports show.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Yeah, I know, on a sports show. You know why,
because uh, Tom Hanks has so much versatility, it just
it slips by.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
I think that movie is so relevant, like in just
like it's it's timeless.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
It's so good.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Oh, by the way, can I give a shout out
to speaking about women playing baseball? I have to give
a shout out. You know how, I not only coach
my son's pony ball team. I coach my daughter. Yeah,
and I tell you how some of these girls are
abnormally good, like that the girl on my team, Charlie
the pitcher. How some of these girls in my Covino
you don't get it. They're they're like unbelievable. Shout out
to the West Valley Girls softball eight U team. They
(28:55):
are going to the States and the regionals down in
San Diego.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
So these girls, like some of them my coach are
literally I'm not I'm not bs and you when I'm like,
they're the best in the state.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
They are going down there. All these amazing young girls
that have played with my daughter. Uh, that all star
team is playing in San Diego going for the state title.
So when I tell you some of these girls are
legit and it's it's pretty wild. They're they're they're down
in San Diego. So congrats to them. Shout out to
West Valley Girls softball eight goal.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
And I was mentioning before the show started today Big Mike,
who doesn't run this place, mentioned that that's his favorite
Tom Hanks role.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yeah, but he says he loves it for Rosie O'Donnell. Right,
didn't he say that.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Mike loves rose It's weird. It's his guilty place, I know,
really weird about her.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Who else do we got? Danny g Let's go to
Dan in San Jose.
Speaker 8 (29:46):
Hey, Fellas, I'm going with the Terminal.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Another good one man, Yeah, so many good ones.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
It's underrated because I think people like, wait, so it's
a guy stuck in an airport. Tom Hanks can make anything.
That movie was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Really, I thought that movie kind of stuck. All right, Yeah,
some people don't like that movie.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
There are you might be That's a conversation for another day,
because like that would be Joe versus the Volcano for me.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I saw that in theaters, Like, I don't know about this.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Let's sit a home run every time.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Let's talk to Martin and Maine. Terminal came out.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
By the way, two thousand and four of Viktor Novoriski
has Rich already mentioned.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Was actually based on true story. It's like holding pretty
true to it. Who's this Danny Martin and Maine Martin.
Speaker 7 (30:26):
Martin, Hey, gentlemen, thanks, you're taking him a call. I
think another movie that a lot of people forget because
they don't see his face is The Polar Express. Back
in oh four, he played six different characters.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
I think there's going to end on that because it's
hilarious that movie.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
You know, Jamie and Boston had typed that into our
show chat on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Yeah, it's wild, man like, it took this long to
get to that answer, and it's one of the most
famous Christmas movies, right, So it just shows you how
great his career is. Just just hearing that Tom Hanks's
voice all the ball the Polar Express, like everything about
the movie's magical. He's hero, boy father and conductor two
thousand and four Polar Express.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Great answer, you know what we have? We actually have
one more though one you're pulling me.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
I don't know what to say.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Fred In West Virginia has been on hold, so we'll
go to him to end things.
Speaker 11 (31:18):
Hey, Fred, Hey guys, So I don't have another one
because I don't know that I can come up with
one that I haven't been lifted. But this is my
wife and I do this all the time. So the
question was asked a while ago. Does he just choose
good roles? Or is he just make every role that good?
Here's what my wife and I do is can you
(31:39):
name somebody that would do the role any better? And
I can't think of anybody that would out do Tom
Hanks in any role that he's done.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
It makes him special, man, it's pretty incredible. Do you
have an answer?
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I take it back. Your call. Your call was great.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It was great. Do you have one that stands out? No,
not one specific.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
No, he's not, honestly, because there have been Remember there's
beenlation like, hey, who could have been Forrest Gump? A
quick Google searcher type, but there's there were other people
up for Forest Cup. I think Travolta might have.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Been trying to imagine him.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Is fust Gump?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I'm looking it up real quick. There's no confirmed evidence.
Richie might have just made that up.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
But John Travolta.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Now the rumor start.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Sorry, I could picture and running around the track field
in Greece, and I could picture m running like Forrest.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
But anyway, thank you guys.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Tom Hanks get this bonehead. Tom Hanks won the role
of Forrest Gump, but the part was initially offered to
three other people that said no, John Travolta, Bill Murray,
and Chevy Chase.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
I guess Chase.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
John Travolta later famous. Travolta later famously admitted that he
doesn't mind passing it up because he then chose pulp
fiction and that worked out perfectly for him as well.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
So all right, all right, dude, Ken in Virginia with
the green miles here. Yeah, yeah, okay, so can I'll

I'm not gonna lie. I'm not a gimmicky type of fella,
but Danny G, you should be the producer that primarily
was an apron. See when we cut to you, and.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's like, that's like your look like almost like your
I almost say, like Danny, you're like just always ready
to be grilling up.
Speaker 5 (38:17):
Something like he's in the middle of a brisket or
something like, hey, you said Danny looked like a blacksmith
in the apron.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Oh so fun Like so it was like, Danny, what
are your thoughts on Lebron. It looks like Danny's about
to flip some.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Murders with being a blacksmith. Finally got a union gig.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Yeah, great job with those, Danny g and Spot and
your chance to win them tomorrow okay, and if you
have won one already, they'll be sent out soon. Now,
let's wrap it up with riches, thoughts, and your thoughts
on this Spurs play by play announcer twenty nine year
old Jacob Toby has the he's the play by play guy. Yeah,
he's called out by his girlfriend of six years on
(38:51):
social media. She calls him out as a cheater.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
That's kid stuff. That's that's what you would imagine, even
in the worst of times taking over your significant there's
social media to sort of out them like crowl.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Spiteful people do things like that, even grown up people grow.
I know it's a bad.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Look, but so you know, some controversy started, like, oh man,
this is a weird look. Turns out he was cheating
with one of the player's sisters. He was cheating with
Lauren Waters, the sister of Lyndy Waters of the San
Antonio Spurs. Since then, as of now, allegedly supposedly, he's
been fired and Rich is like fired for what?
Speaker 3 (39:30):
Yeah, because My thought is twofold. I thought is hey,
he cheated on a girlfriend. I'm not trying to sell
like a jerk or a bad guy, but it's not
a wife. Cheating. Cheating had a wife is way different. Girlfriend.
We've all cheated.
Speaker 5 (39:43):
I mean, he's been with her for six years though,
it's like he could be his wife at some point.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Sam, they're not married though, does that make a difference?
So what's the point of matrimony?
Speaker 4 (39:51):
Rich Rich Tom Hanks was not married to his girlfriend
and castaway either.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
You were emotional about that.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Danny cheating on a girlfriend and cheating on a wife,
the magnitude is so drastically different. If you don't see that,
then that's your problemo. So I think he did nothing wrong.
He cheated bad guy. Yeah, you could say what a jerk,
but he didn't cheat on his wife. He cheat on
a girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
And that would be like if me or Cavino or
one of us try to sleep with the other guy's sister,
that's not a work crime.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
That's a bro to bro crime. That's not like if
I tried to sleep with Cavino's sister. I was Sam, like,
how is your sister doing? That makes me a bad friend.
That doesn't make me fire a ball.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
But is that an HR sort of there are moral
codes at moral codes, not work codes. I think HR
might step in if that's things like that mess it
becomes a gossipy, salacious story that the Spurs might not
even want to deal with.
Speaker 5 (40:45):
Yeah, I have that distraction, like sitting right at courtside
because he's.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
A young successful dude who made a mistake and now
it's really really hurting him in the pocket and in
the resume.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
Don't don't let your sister's got to look at this.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Then I'm just saying I think this guy poor dude,
And I say poor dude while I jokingly remized because
he did cheat on his girlfriend and maybe not made
the wisest choices, But those are like bad moral choices.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Like, man, he cheated on his girlfriend with someone's sister
of somebody knows, but he shouldn't be fired. There's a
big difference like fired, no be called the jerk and
a bad guy in the moment.

we'll talk some home run derby and can I give.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
Out some unique awards as we hit the mid season
point of the baseball season.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Well yeah, because I know we're running out of time
because we still got to get to the Spurs announcer.
So I want everyone to start thinking about this. The
Spurs play by play dude, young dude, Jacob Toby got
caught cheating on his girlfriend with one of the player's sisters.
The update is that he got fired from the job.
I want to know your thoughts on that, So think
(02:01):
about it, Let it simmer, let it settle, and we'll
get to your phone calls later, because right now, every
Thursday we throw it back in reminisce Old School and
fifty hits, and today we honor Tom Hanks on his
seventieth birthday. And Rich, if you were to just throw
it out there, when do you believe his professional acting
career began, like, just throw it out there.
Speaker 3 (02:19):
What year? I'm going to assume late seventies, early eighties,
So like nineteen eighty.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Okay, on He Knows You're Alone. I believe that was
a TV show. He was on the Love Boat in
nineteen eighty.
Speaker 3 (02:30):
Bosom Buddy Boat, I know, right.
Speaker 2 (02:33):
Bosom Buddy started in nineteen eighty through eighty two, where
he was one of the stars of the show, and
that's where he became a name, kind of a name.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
He also made some cameos.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
On Taxi in eighty two, Happy Days, as we mentioned,
family Ties in eighty three, and then his big, big
breakout moment and we probably all remember this was splashed
in nineteen eighty four with Eugene Levy and I'm sorry
Eugene Levy and John Candy, So that was eighty four.
But let me tell you this to start the discussion. Okay,
(03:03):
there's been different levels of Tom Hanks young, comedic, funny
Tom Hanks, serious, Tom Hanks coach League of their own
Tom Hanks.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Levels, levels, levels, He's got levels. Dude.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
On his birthday, we already established that no one dude
has the same top four Tom Hanks movies.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Today, we ask you who's his best role? What's your
favorite character that he ever played?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Minus far As Gump only because that's probably an obvious answer. Yes, right,
so minus far As Gump. In nineteen eighty four, after Splash,
he was in a movie that goes under the radar,
but it was one of the last great eighties like
goofy newdy comedies, like you know, like the porky style
(03:50):
goofy eighties comedies. And that's when he played Rick Gasco
in the movie Bachelor Party. So I know it's it's
like a weird answer, but I really mean it. I
loved him in that movie and in that era. I
love that era of Tom Hanks when I was young
and funny and goofy, and that movie really is a
great underrated movie.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
So I'm going I'm going rogue here.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Rick Gasco was one of my favorite Tom Hanks characters
because That's what put him on the map for me,
and I paid close attention to his career after that.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Danny g Anything come to my few. Oh my god, Danny,
she's wearing our grilling ape.
Speaker 4 (04:28):
I am all right, so honor, Yeah, I wish I
had some in front of me.
Speaker 3 (04:35):
Here. That's a hot item.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
Look at Look at the junk gazing going on.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
Look at that.
Speaker 4 (04:40):
So if you're on the YouTube channel, these boxes just arrived.
So if you were one of our winners the past
month or so, these are going to be shipped out
very soon.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Our summer grilling aprons are here, all right.
Speaker 4 (04:51):
So here's what I'm gonna do. I wrote down my
favorite Tom Hanks character. So the first caller that matches
mine nice is gonna get one, and then I'll give
a second one away. It's just an impressive phone call
to you guys. You guys tell me to hey, hold
that caller and I'll give them.
Speaker 2 (05:06):
All right, Well, you better say one for my mom
because she's been bothering me for one of those.
Speaker 3 (05:09):
Yeah. Man, there's so many great answers here. What is
the best Tom Hanks character other than Forrest Gump? Because,
like we said, no two people on Planet Earth have
the same four favorite Tom Hanks movies. We've established that
for years. So now the question is if you're gonna
take Gump out of the equation. Man, I don't know
if I want to go sentimental and sweet like Sam
(05:32):
Baldwin Sleepless in Seattle, or do I go Josh from Big,
playful Tom Hanks who turns into a kid and then
comes back like that character.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
That's a good one. It's a great, great movie, man,
and it still holds up.
Speaker 2 (05:45):
And you know, you notice as as an adult how
serious it is in the beginning, like the mom has
a freak out when when he's a grown up adult
in her house, like it's sad and he goes running
out the housing.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
It's sad. Great movie, big, So what's your answer, buddy.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I think I'm gonna go I think I'm going Josh
and Big. I think that's I think Big is That's
nineteen eighty eight. By the way, it was a huge
movie for I think it was because it combined the
childlike fun of Hanks, like it was a combination of
eighties fun Hanks. I love your answer, bro, but also
(06:24):
a little bit of like serious, like like good acting.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I love the explanation, I really do. It's a perfect
explanation of why Big was special for him. You got
all things Hanks in one movie, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
I do. I think.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
I think because he plays the versatile like he's a kid,
but he's not like that's it brings to multiple layers,
Oh Hanks, where he's eating those little corns at the
sophisticated banquet like yes, and he has his best friend
with the spiky anti letx haircut.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Do remember his little friend with the Simon Lebon haircut?
Speaker 2 (06:55):
Of course, Chalina walking down the street ten times a week.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
I said it, read it. I broke with my mama's credit.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
All right, so we're going to the front.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
I just thought of another one.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Answer. I don't take the lines are loaded.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Because they're all great. That's what makes all special. See,
I don't think anyone will say this. I think he
is the most lovable portrayal of a foreign dude stuck
in an airport. The Terminal is so underrated, and Victor
when he played Victor in the Terminal.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Okay, but Josh is your answer the Big I'm sticking
with Bachelor Party because I really that's what put him
on the map for me. And you know that's when
I fell in love with the very lovable Tom Hanks.
Danny G do you have Well, no, Danny G can't
give his answer because if you could match his answer,
you win a prize. Sam, you got one that stands out.
Speaker 5 (07:46):
For you as one of my favorite characters he played. Yeah, well,
I love I mean, I don't want to take too many.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Just one one right, just one?
Speaker 5 (07:53):
Yeah, I'm gonna go with Jim Lovell in Apollo thirteen
is one of my thirteen. Jim lovel just passed away
less than a year ago, the real life Jim, the
real gym level. But I don't know if like his
performance is like one of his best. But I think
that cast with Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, who was it
Ed Harris? Yeah, what a great cast. I mean, incredible cast,
(08:15):
an incredible story.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Now.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
I know dB is super busy with the World Cup
updates and everything else going on, But Dan, I know
you got to be.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
A Tom Hanks guy.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
He's not a movie guy.
Speaker 1 (08:25):
Yeah, but ta everybody loves Tom Hanks.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I I don't know the character's name, I can't remember
find it, No, but I thought he was great in Philadelphia.
Oh yeah, you know that was a turn from the
normal Tom Hanks. That No, let me bounce something off Dan.
I know you're a big mister Rogers fan. Did you
see a beautiful Day in the neighborhood?
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Yes? Did you like it? I don't like people touching.
You know that. I thought i'd say it should just
let it be as it is. You know, I haven't
finished it. I was a little bored by it, and
I'm a big Fred Rogers guy.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
But in Philadelphia nineteen ninety three, he played the character
Andrew Beckett.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
So that's DB's painful movie, and that was a very
pivotal role. Like Dan explained, like that was like, all right,
here's series about as serious of a Hanks you can
zell yep his lawyer. All right, So if you could
match Danny G's answer, you win a prize. If you
have like a great explanation or cove or something else
that stands out, we'll give you another prize. But what's
(09:21):
your favorite role that he ever played? I was saying,
brings up a great one. Can I go back to
you Sam for a second? We said Apollo thirteen. That
movie is a remarkably underrated movie. I feel like I
would love to throw that on right now and watch it.
But I wonder if it wasn't Hanks, would it be
as good.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
I think he brings that movie to life in a
new way him playing gym level that. That's such a
great answer, because Hanks makes that movie. I know it's
a great cast. But man, what was the less time
he saw apollofy.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
I was just gonna say that, dude, that came out
right when I graduate, right after I.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Graduated, is insane. Garry Snie is in it. I forgot.
Speaker 5 (09:58):
Yeah, I mean a watch, I mean I think that, Yeah,
he is. Really he's definitely an anchor of the film.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Yeah, Rich, I know you don't have cable anymore, but
it's one of those movies where once in a while,
if it's certain cable channel will be playing watch that
movie and yeah, you just leave it on.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
All right?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
So now we turn to you Fox Sports Radio Nation,
most interactive show on radio eight seven seven ninety nine
one Fox, and of course the feedback on the live
chat at Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Danny G. Who are we starting with? All right, let's
start with Chance in Alabama? What up? Chance?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Man?
Speaker 7 (10:28):
I thought you were gonna start naming them all.
Speaker 8 (10:29):
Philadelphia was great.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
Are you from Queen Bow, Alabama?
Speaker 8 (10:35):
He said, no, Forrest gumpany I was like, oh, man
from Alabama, but it's not my favorite anyways, but Philadelphia, man,
my two favorite actors.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
Denzel and Tom Hanks.
Speaker 8 (10:44):
Tom Haiks one Denzel too. But there's so many, man.
Speaker 9 (10:48):
I wish you give me a.
Speaker 8 (10:48):
Hint on the genre. But I'm between two.
Speaker 10 (10:53):
Man, my kids will toy Star, but that's that's not me.
The burbs touch me if you can leave their own.
Speaker 1 (10:59):
Got to pick.
Speaker 8 (11:01):
One, dude, Okay, I'm between Saving Pirate Ryan.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Two of his best movies. That's a good choice.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
He's Captain Miller in Saving Private Ryan Captain Miller nineteen
ninety eight.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
He brought up something wild that for in someone else's career,
if they were Woody from Toy Story, that would be
like all all you needed to just have an illustrious,
amazing career, you know how you said, that's like a
side note of Tom Hanks.
Speaker 1 (11:28):
When all said and done, we're going to respect Lebron
in a different way. When all said and done, Tom
Hanks is gonna go down like the Clark Gable, the
Humphrey moguard of our time like he's.
Speaker 3 (11:38):
Those guys couldn't do with Tom Hanks does.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
That's what I'm saying. They represent an era of like,
you know, film history. He's gonna be a guy that
did it all and everybody loved him like and he's
so relatable.
Speaker 4 (11:49):
And that's why these roles residents on Disney Plus. Disney
and Pixar have a Toy Story five behind the scenes movie.
Make sure it's it's a little mini documentary. Make sure
you check that out, because the way they convinced Tom
Hanks to join their original cast is an amazing story.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Nice.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
That's Danny Gat We're still waiting to hear his answer.
Maybe you got it eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Who we got Danny.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
Let's go to North Cacilaca. Eric?
Speaker 3 (12:15):
What? Eric? All right?
Speaker 7 (12:18):
Guess I know you were talking about it, but it's
gotta be Woody. I turned thirty seven yesterday, so I
was six years old when it came out.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
Man, did you see the fifth one yet?
Speaker 1 (12:27):
By the way, did you see that?
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Eric?
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Haven't yet?
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Want to, but I haven't been able to see it yet.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Mattaya, you're gonna cry. I am mad enough to admit
I was tearing up in the theater. I brought my
two kids, my wife, and I it is the fifth
one might be the best one. And I'm not being
a prisoner of the moment.
Speaker 5 (12:41):
It was that good humblown way that the first toy
story came out in ninety five or ninety six.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Yeah, that's insane.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
That's not Danny G's answer. No, I'm shocked because your
son loves it.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
And by the way, a.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
Little fun he's more of a buzz guy, but he
loves toy story.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Fun fact is when it comes to a lot of
the projects for a toy story and the toy line
like if anyone ever had the toy and you pulled
the string and you heard there's a snake in my boot.
Anytime that Tom Hanks is too busy. Jim Hanks, his
brother is the voice. So his brother Jim, who looks
a lot like Tom. Jim is also Yeah, he sounds
(13:17):
like him, so he's the like secondary voice Andy. And
he's also the stand in in Forrest Gump. He was
in that movie too. So not only is uh not
only is Tom Hanks a great guy and a great actor,
He's a great brother giving his giving bones to Jim.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
You know, uh, you know what clip was making the
rounds on social media. Did you see when he was
filming Forrest Gump and they were at first they were
gonna have the the boy that was cast at as
young Forrest try to change his accent and like no, no, no,
no talk again. And that little kid that had such
the accent.
Speaker 1 (13:51):
Yeah, he inspired the whole movies.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
The whole movie is based on Tom Hanks essentially saying no, no,
I'm just gonna do his voice as a grown up.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, that's all awesome. I love that story. So let's
go I.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
Love that story. Let's go back to the phones.
Speaker 1 (14:04):
Because now, really, I thought for sure Danny G's favorite
was going to be Woody. I thought he had it there.
What do we got Dan to j Let's go to
Vegas your boy trip?
Speaker 3 (14:12):
Hey, hey trip?
Speaker 9 (14:14):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (14:15):
My favorite one would be when he played Joseph Say
so that would be Carl Hanratty because I don't think, oh,
that movie would be good if Tom.
Speaker 10 (14:25):
Hanks was not.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
So look at look at my page here, FBI agent
Carl Hanratty.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
If you can't, wow, it's such a good movie.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
Wow.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Trip is going to be one of the first in
Vegas with one of these grill and aprons.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Dude, and you know what, very deserving of it because
you're always participating.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
We appreciate that. So catch me if you're if you
can yours. Yeah, that's another movie.
Speaker 5 (14:48):
If it comes on, it's like, I don't know, it's
like two and a half, three hours something.
Speaker 1 (14:51):
If it comes on, you're watching it. Oh trip, congratulations.
Speaker 4 (14:54):
His character in that movie rich He had to show
a lot of empathy because he then helped Leo's character sure,
you know, after he busted him finally.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, I was.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
Thinking about how many times Hank's has made us the
most manly of us emotional because I was saying to
I was saying during the break that not only the
Toy Story movies and you know, Sleepless in Seattle and
the rom coms you've probably seen with girlfriends in the past,
you've got Males of the World.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
That's a great movie.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
The the ending of Castaway when unfortunately Hank sees his
you know, his ex, his his wife had moved on,
and he doesn't know really where he belongs in the
world anymore, and he's and he's driving down that road.
I was like, Sam, is there a more emotional Hank
scene than that?
Speaker 5 (15:43):
It's so good? And isn't the the husband? It's Helen
Hunt right is his wife? She marries mister Big from
Sex and the City.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Yeah. Yeah, who.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
By the way, I saw recently here right here in
Sherman Oaks having a coffee. Catch me if you can
two thousand and two, O geez Luise eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox your favorite Tom Hanks role. So
we already gave away one prize, trip if you could
give us another. I really feel Rich gave a great
(16:12):
explanation as to why his character in Big Josh. Might
be a great answer because you get all layers of
Tom Hanks play full, goofy, comedic Tom Hanks and serious
Tom Hanks. I think it was a great explanation. If
you could wow us with your explanation, maybe we'll give
you another prize.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
How about that.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
We'll take like four more phone calls and then we'll
move on us old school and fifty hits.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
Who do we got, Danny j go to them mon
Channa meg Hey, meg Hey, guys hey meg OHI meg
oh huh.
Speaker 9 (16:41):
Yeah, Well definitely Joss Baskins and Big deserves a big
tip of the cops. That was the top of my list.
But I think a sneaky good role of his and
a shameless Meg Ryan Tom Hanks chick flick was You've
got mail, Joe Fox.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
That's such a great Fox.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
Can you know, ca, you know miss that one because
I guarantee Covino was like, dude, I was, I was
out chasing Tail in the two thousand.
Speaker 1 (17:06):
No, you're right, Yeah, isn't a young Dave Chappelle in
that movie.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Dave Chappelle's best friend. Chappelle's best friend, a young Dave
Chappelle that's sort of more of an unknown Tom Hanks givin'
plays like Fox, who's like the owner of like a
big like a Barnes and Noble kind of like a
Barnes and Noble type. And Meg Ryan owns like.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
The local indiend bookstore.
Speaker 3 (17:25):
Yeah, and she doesn't realize she felt, she doesn't realize
she's interested in like the guy taking down her small bookstore?
Speaker 1 (17:31):
Was it more of a Borders bookstore back in the day.
Speaker 5 (17:33):
Which they've got this email relationship back and forth, and
they don't like they know each other in real life
I can't. It's been a long time since you. Yeah,
but I know they don't even know that they're that
they don't know each other. Are the emailing Yeah, I've
never seen it, but I know Chappelle's in that one.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
And Rich I'll ask you a quick trivia question, since
you and Meg both agree that Josh and Big might
be the character. When he had to steal his dad's
clothes to get out of the house, what what team
sweatshirt is he wearing?
Speaker 3 (18:02):
How am I drawing a Blanke on this?
Speaker 2 (18:03):
He grabs his dad because you know, he's a grown
up now, so he grabs his dad's clothes and runs
out the house. Quiz Tom, quiz hot shot. I'll give
you a hand. It's a football team.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
He wears a.
Speaker 6 (18:20):
Hey.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
You know what if anybody knows, Hey, yo, coch I
was gonna ask you, did you know that the scene
in Fao Sports where they're dancing on the piano, they
wanted to like they want to sort of like fake
it or use use like stunt doubles or like fake
and Tom Hanks is like, no, I want to learn
it and do it. And that is Tom Hanks learning
(18:44):
the moves and dancing and here's.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Here's the takeaway too, guys, especially in Hollywood, there's so
many people that you love and they let you down.
You hear some salacious, terrible story about them. Tom Hanks
is one of the last. Like few guys we throw
Matt Damon in that kind of gory two because he's
likable and even he's with his high school sweetheart still.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Keanu is a great one guy who like watches.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
And like Tom Hanks, there's something that seems so humble
about him still, even though he's a big time superstar,
he's so likable. So you got to embrace people when
they're still here. He's seventy years old today. Uh, we'll
wrap it up with a few more phone calls. Best
Tom Hanks rolls and why who do we got Danny?
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Let's go to Virginia, Ken, Ken, what up?
Speaker 9 (19:26):
Hey? What's up? Guys.
Speaker 2 (19:27):
I can't believe this one hasn't come up yet.
Speaker 11 (19:29):
But The Green Mile, which is one of the most
one of the best books written.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
It's a I mean that tell me, no one tell me.
Speaker 11 (19:39):
If you didn't cry into that movie, then you're a lying.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
John Colfree Ball that's a hard one.
Speaker 3 (19:46):
It's funny you would bring that up because I was
just looking at his IMDb. I was cheating here for
a second.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Due that goes so under the radar though, really don'
within a.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
Within a year he made Green Mile and Saving Private Ryan,
which we're both like, you know, cut from the the
military and like, you know, corrections cloth like that. That
Tom Hanks is awesome in itself too, So like there's
so many layers of Hanks.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
You guys want Ken to be in the running.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I do.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Yeah, yeah, he goes under the radar. You know, do
you think Tom Hanks just picks good roles or does
he just make every movie that much better? Because what
makes us crazy is that he's got so many, like
great movies under his belt.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
Okay, have a I have a Tom Hanks question for
all you guys. Yeah, being that worth sweating this guy
deservingly so.
Speaker 2 (20:36):
Yeah, but I mean, these are these movies are relatable
and meaningful to all of.
Speaker 3 (20:41):
Us, deservingly. So if anyone deserves props on their seventieth birthday,
it's Tom Hanks. We keep listing all these movies that
are legendary. Oh my god, you know, I gotta throw
on Castaway again. Pubblo thirteen. It is going to be
the same with ad him. None even mentioned money Pit.
Yet you mentioned Bachelor Party, which is like my dad's
favorite movie.
Speaker 1 (20:57):
The I love the money Pit.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
All these, all these and what a reference? Two weeks
and anytime someone had some type of home repair in
the eighties or nineties, they made some money Pit reference, right,
you know, it's interesting. Of all these movies, let's all admit,
is there one you missed along the way, like Cavino
never saw You've Got Mail?
Speaker 1 (21:15):
No, I haven't.
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Or Sleepless in Seattle.
Speaker 1 (21:18):
Yeah, I missed the rom com Era.
Speaker 3 (21:21):
I'll tell you what I missed. You You and Spot
have referenced this movie and I've never seen it. What
which one? I have never seen that thing? You do?
Oh my god, dude, you gotta watch that.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
I know I heard it on TV, but I've never
seen it front to back. Oh man, it is so underrated.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
You gotta definitely invest some time and watch it. I
think you'd really love it. It's it's a fun story
about this band.
Speaker 3 (21:48):
How about this? How about this? How do we do
a little hanks work instead of homework? You do you?
You could choose Sleepless in Seattle or You've Got Mail.
They're both hour and a half rom coms. Picked with your.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
Girl, Hank's work assignments Tonight's Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Well I'll watch the oneaters that I always see you
guys talking about thing you do? You watch You've Got
Mail or Sleepless in Seattle. I think you'll like Sleepless
in Seattle because it's based on a like a radio
host and a call in show. I think you'd like
that angle.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
Dude, you know how crazy your career has to be
if that thing you do is like, uh, like an afterthought,
isn't that wild? Because that's such a good movie.
Speaker 5 (22:19):
And that's not only that, that's not only the movie
the only movie where he plays a music manager. He
plays kind of an evil one in another movie. Do
you guys know what I'm talking about? Yeah, Elvis, Elvis
and then so yeah, and then it's so funny because
he's played, like you said, like authority figures, like in
The Green Mile, and he's a captain. He's Captain Miller
and saving Private Ryan. He's he's got like Captain Phil
(22:40):
he's Captain Phillips too, and he's Sully. He still he's
always a captain. He's got all these different like genres
that he's in. He's an astronaut, he's a captain.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Yeah, he's the Hanks. That's it.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Let's do one more call and then we'll go.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
We'll go rapid fire on the other side. Okay, cool
for now. James in Virginia, Hey James.
Speaker 8 (22:59):
Oh things taking my call? Gentlemen, Happy Thursday, Big Time,
all the time, every time. Commanders. Man, you guys have
lists off a lot of great movies. I think Big
was my first introduction to Tom Hanks and he was
wearing the Giants, uh, sweat it. And I ain't looked
that up, man, because that, like I said, that was
(23:20):
one of my first ever. But as soon as you
were saying that, I was throwing it out there.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
You know, let's let's look up, let's look up. Let's
hook up, James, James, Let's hook James, James, James.

Speaker 2 (23:34):
We just want to we want to picture of you
wearing it, grilling up this summer, all right.
Speaker 8 (23:38):
That sounds like a great idea, right, and throw my
little girl in there with me. Too, But but for me, man,
the two. I mean, like you said, you got to
take Forrest jump out because everybody loves Forrest gump Man
and you guys listened on so many good ones. One
Vint thing I've heard is Da Vinci Code. He was
great in that movie, a very smart character. But my
(24:02):
favorite has to be Castaway Man as a ups driver.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Man.
Speaker 8 (24:06):
I know the set X Man, but that movie, man,
it was just all Tom Hanks. All the whole movie
with Tom Hanks, and you got to watch him and
go through the whole motion with him, from when he
was really big so really small with the spears and
throwing spears at the fish man and then surviving the
way a waking them up like that movie right there
(24:26):
was He carried the whole movie because it was just
Tom Hanks. There was really nobody else except for in
the beginning and in the end.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
Man.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Yeah, to call it a masterclass.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
Not only do you win because you got the giant
sweatshirt and big, but your explanation here was great.
Speaker 3 (24:42):
He was the whole movie. Yeah, he's talking to a volleyball.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
He played Chuck Noland in Castaway, in Robert Langdon in
Da Vinci Code, so great characters. The rest of your answers. Next,
we'll do a little crossfire and we're gonna get into
this really salacious, controversial Spurs announcer story.

that is my own time.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
You just did right now, So thank you for bringing
up we mentioned an hour ago that.
Speaker 10 (28:17):
Big Mike Sports show.
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Yeah, I know, on a sports show. You know why,
because uh, Tom Hanks has so much versatility, it just
it slips by.
Speaker 5 (28:27):
I think that movie is so relevant, like in just
like it's it's timeless.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
It's so good.
Speaker 3 (28:32):
Oh, by the way, can I give a shout out
to speaking about women playing baseball? I have to give
a shout out. You know how, I not only coach
my son's pony ball team. I coach my daughter. Yeah,
and I tell you how some of these girls are
abnormally good, like that the girl on my team, Charlie
the pitcher. How some of these girls in my Covino
you don't get it. They're they're like unbelievable. Shout out
to the West Valley Girls softball eight U team. They
(28:55):
are going to the States and the regionals down in
San Diego.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
So these girls, like some of them my coach are
literally I'm not I'm not bs and you when I'm like,
they're the best in the state.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
They are going down there. All these amazing young girls
that have played with my daughter. Uh, that all star
team is playing in San Diego going for the state title.
So when I tell you some of these girls are
legit and it's it's pretty wild. They're they're they're down
in San Diego. So congrats to them. Shout out to
West Valley Girls softball eight goal.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
And I was mentioning before the show started today Big Mike,
who doesn't run this place, mentioned that that's his favorite
Tom Hanks role.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
Yeah, but he says he loves it for Rosie O'Donnell. Right,
didn't he say that.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
Mike loves rose It's weird. It's his guilty place, I know,
really weird about her.
Speaker 1 (29:41):
Who else do we got? Danny g Let's go to
Dan in San Jose.
Speaker 8 (29:46):
Hey, Fellas, I'm going with the Terminal.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
Another good one man, Yeah, so many good ones.
Speaker 3 (29:53):
It's underrated because I think people like, wait, so it's
a guy stuck in an airport. Tom Hanks can make anything.
That movie was fantastic.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
Really, I thought that movie kind of stuck. All right, Yeah,
some people don't like that movie.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
There are you might be That's a conversation for another day,
because like that would be Joe versus the Volcano for me.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
I saw that in theaters, Like, I don't know about this.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Let's sit a home run every time.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Let's talk to Martin and Maine. Terminal came out.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
By the way, two thousand and four of Viktor Novoriski
has Rich already mentioned.
Speaker 5 (30:18):
Was actually based on true story. It's like holding pretty
true to it. Who's this Danny Martin and Maine Martin.
Speaker 7 (30:26):
Martin, Hey, gentlemen, thanks, you're taking him a call. I
think another movie that a lot of people forget because
they don't see his face is The Polar Express. Back
in oh four, he played six different characters.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
I think there's going to end on that because it's
hilarious that movie.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
You know, Jamie and Boston had typed that into our
show chat on YouTube.
Speaker 2 (30:46):
Yeah, it's wild, man like, it took this long to
get to that answer, and it's one of the most
famous Christmas movies, right, So it just shows you how
great his career is. Just just hearing that Tom Hanks's
voice all the ball the Polar Express, like everything about
the movie's magical. He's hero, boy father and conductor two
thousand and four Polar Express.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
Great answer, you know what we have? We actually have
one more though one you're pulling me.
Speaker 3 (31:13):
I don't know what to say.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Fred In West Virginia has been on hold, so we'll
go to him to end things.
Speaker 11 (31:18):
Hey, Fred, Hey guys, So I don't have another one
because I don't know that I can come up with
one that I haven't been lifted. But this is my
wife and I do this all the time. So the
question was asked a while ago. Does he just choose
good roles? Or is he just make every role that good?
Here's what my wife and I do is can you
(31:39):
name somebody that would do the role any better? And
I can't think of anybody that would out do Tom
Hanks in any role that he's done.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
It makes him special, man, it's pretty incredible. Do you
have an answer?
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I take it back. Your call. Your call was great.
Speaker 2 (31:52):
It was great. Do you have one that stands out? No,
not one specific.
Speaker 3 (31:55):
No, he's not, honestly, because there have been Remember there's
beenlation like, hey, who could have been Forrest Gump? A
quick Google searcher type, but there's there were other people
up for Forest Cup. I think Travolta might have.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Been trying to imagine him.
Speaker 3 (32:13):
Is fust Gump?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
I'm looking it up real quick. There's no confirmed evidence.
Richie might have just made that up.
Speaker 3 (32:22):
But John Travolta.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
Now the rumor start.
Speaker 2 (32:26):
Sorry, I could picture and running around the track field
in Greece, and I could picture m running like Forrest.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
But anyway, thank you guys.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
Tom Hanks get this bonehead. Tom Hanks won the role
of Forrest Gump, but the part was initially offered to
three other people that said no, John Travolta, Bill Murray,
and Chevy Chase.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
I guess Chase.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
John Travolta later famous. Travolta later famously admitted that he
doesn't mind passing it up because he then chose pulp
fiction and that worked out perfectly for him as well.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
So all right, all right, dude, Ken in Virginia with
the green miles here. Yeah, yeah, okay, so can I'll

I'm not gonna lie. I'm not a gimmicky type of fella,
but Danny G, you should be the producer that primarily
was an apron. See when we cut to you, and.
Speaker 2 (38:12):
It's like, that's like your look like almost like your
I almost say, like Danny, you're like just always ready
to be grilling up.
Speaker 5 (38:17):
Something like he's in the middle of a brisket or
something like, hey, you said Danny looked like a blacksmith
in the apron.
Speaker 3 (38:22):
Oh so fun Like so it was like, Danny, what
are your thoughts on Lebron. It looks like Danny's about
to flip some.
Speaker 1 (38:27):
Murders with being a blacksmith. Finally got a union gig.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Yeah, great job with those, Danny g and Spot and
your chance to win them tomorrow okay, and if you
have won one already, they'll be sent out soon. Now,
let's wrap it up with riches, thoughts, and your thoughts
on this Spurs play by play announcer twenty nine year
old Jacob Toby has the he's the play by play guy. Yeah,
he's called out by his girlfriend of six years on
(38:51):
social media. She calls him out as a cheater.
Speaker 3 (38:54):
That's kid stuff. That's that's what you would imagine, even
in the worst of times taking over your significant there's
social media to sort of out them like crowl.
Speaker 1 (39:03):
Spiteful people do things like that, even grown up people grow.
I know it's a bad.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
Look, but so you know, some controversy started, like, oh man,
this is a weird look. Turns out he was cheating
with one of the player's sisters. He was cheating with
Lauren Waters, the sister of Lyndy Waters of the San
Antonio Spurs. Since then, as of now, allegedly supposedly, he's
been fired and Rich is like fired for what?
Speaker 3 (39:30):
Yeah, because My thought is twofold. I thought is hey,
he cheated on a girlfriend. I'm not trying to sell
like a jerk or a bad guy, but it's not
a wife. Cheating. Cheating had a wife is way different. Girlfriend.
We've all cheated.
Speaker 5 (39:43):
I mean, he's been with her for six years though,
it's like he could be his wife at some point.
Speaker 3 (39:47):
Sam, they're not married though, does that make a difference?
So what's the point of matrimony?
Speaker 4 (39:51):
Rich Rich Tom Hanks was not married to his girlfriend
and castaway either.
Speaker 1 (39:57):
You were emotional about that.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Danny cheating on a girlfriend and cheating on a wife,
the magnitude is so drastically different. If you don't see that,
then that's your problemo. So I think he did nothing wrong.
He cheated bad guy. Yeah, you could say what a jerk,
but he didn't cheat on his wife. He cheat on
a girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
And that would be like if me or Cavino or
one of us try to sleep with the other guy's sister,
that's not a work crime.
Speaker 3 (40:19):
That's a bro to bro crime. That's not like if
I tried to sleep with Cavino's sister. I was Sam, like,
how is your sister doing? That makes me a bad friend.
That doesn't make me fire a ball.
Speaker 2 (40:28):
But is that an HR sort of there are moral
codes at moral codes, not work codes. I think HR
might step in if that's things like that mess it
becomes a gossipy, salacious story that the Spurs might not
even want to deal with.
Speaker 5 (40:45):
Yeah, I have that distraction, like sitting right at courtside
because he's.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
A young successful dude who made a mistake and now
it's really really hurting him in the pocket and in
the resume.
Speaker 3 (40:56):
Don't don't let your sister's got to look at this.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
Then I'm just saying I think this guy poor dude,
And I say poor dude while I jokingly remized because
he did cheat on his girlfriend and maybe not made
the wisest choices, But those are like bad moral choices.
Speaker 3 (41:13):
Like, man, he cheated on his girlfriend with someone's sister

big difference like fired, no be called the jerk and
a bad guy in the moment.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
