Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hey, thanks for listening to the best of Caabino n
Rich podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
Be sure to catch us live every day.

Speaker 1 (00:07):
From five to seven pm to eastern two to four
pacifics on Fox Sports Radio. Find your local station for
Debino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio dot com, or
stream us live every day on the iHeartRadio app II
searching FSR. Here's something that the Fox Sports Radio nation
might not know. Where we get ready every day for

(00:28):
the show. We have a little pre show meeting and
we go through ideas. We sit at the table by
the kitchen over there, and our building is connected to
a yoga studio, so you see all these hot yoga
butts one walking in and out past our little lunch spot,
and Rich Davis can't even focus on what we're talking
about because all he's doing is staring.

Speaker 2 (00:49):
You think I picked that spot by accident.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
Yeah, but I bet you nobody knew that. But we're
right next door to a yoga studio.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
I'm a I'm a scoreboard watcher, I'm a standings It's
too much like I get freaks. Like my buddies make
fun of me because I'll be rooting against the padres
now and they're like, dude, this a month and a half,
two months left of baseball, and I'm.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Like, oh no, but I you know, I'm looking at
the wild card.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
But Danny, as much as I look at the standings,
if you would have asked me this morning and again,
I watch baseball every day, I would never have guessed
that you guys are down to a two and a
half game lead in the National West.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
You haven't been paying attention to all the injuries. I
know I.

Speaker 1 (01:26):
Haven't, But I thought while the Diamondbacks and the Padres
have both been scorching hot, I'm pretty sure the Padres
have won sixteen of their last eighteen games. I still
thought in my big old noggin that one of the
Dodgers got like.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
A five or six game lead two and a half.
You know what it is?

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Holy could be real about baseball. Unlike football, baseball fans
pretty much stick to their team. You're not really focused
on the other teams. You'll see the highlights here and early.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Oh h o, Tani weight hard again.

Speaker 3 (01:57):
It's a regional yeah, absolutely, Like I watch baseball every night,
I'm watching the Yankees. You think I give a Diddley
squad about what the Padres are doing? I could watch
are the Diamondbacks. I could watch the two worst NFL
teams and be so engaged. But you have a general idea.
The point is, Richard, know that this gap closed that
hard that fan I knew it was closing.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
But again, you're not.

Speaker 1 (02:17):
Are you really watching a Pirates Twins game on a
Wednesday night. Most most fans are zoned in on their teams,
unlike football, where you've got a pretty great understanding of
ball teams. I've been analyzing the Wildcard every day as
a Mets fan, like a nerd. I'm like, oh, half
a game out. No, now we're half a game up. Oh,
we're a game behind, We're a game up, We're the
two seed in the Wildcard. All along, I'm watching the

(02:40):
Padres and the Diamondbacks every day, I'm like one again.
The Diamondbacks yesterday swept the Guardians, the best team at
that time in the American League.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
How about the Padres. They've had two ninth inning comebacks
in a row.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
This morning, i was like, oh, five to four Pirates
in the ninth inning. Oh ride. And then I'm looking
at my phone. I'm like the run around first runner
on second base is loaded. Damn Padres. They score three
in the ninth and they win again, and I'm like,
you know, they sneak it up on the Dodgers two
and a half games, and I take a look at

(03:13):
the schedules. You have a couple overlapping teams, but the
Dodgers who are injured, and still you got to give
the Dodgers credit to stay in first place with all
of those injuries, and even guys that had to step
away for you know, completely legitimate reasons, like a Freddie
Freeman for his child.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
The Dodgers have never I feel like.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
All season they haven't been a full capacity yet They're
still in first place. But right now by two and
a half games, and you guys play other than the
Pirates coming up, the Brewers over five hundred, Cardinals, over
five hundred, Mariners over five hundred, Rais over five hundred,
Orioles over five hundred.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
You have, by no means a cake schedule coming up.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
And the Padres have the Marlins, Pirates, Rockies, they have
a few. You could say, Danny, g God, your fans
should be scared, or you could say, hey, it's remarkable
that with all those injuries they're still able to hold
that lead, any lead at all, because that's kind of
how I feel about I hate to say it. The Yankees, Like,
you know how bad they were the past few months,
yet they still have the most twins, tied for the

(04:20):
most wins in the BIGS, and they're tied for first
in the Al East.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
So you could say, man, how did that happen?

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Where you can say, well, good for them for holding
on when they were down so many players on so
many crappy moments, when your Yankees were struggling Joe Namath style,
I'm struggling. I said to you what I said last year,
and the Yankees were struggling. No, it doesn't matter. It's
every team goes through these hot streaks. Every team goes

(04:48):
through the well, they won ten of twelve, they're on fire,
and then you go through a stretcher. Your team drops
eight of ten against what you would say, these are
the bottom feeders.

Speaker 2 (04:56):
What's going on? So well?

Speaker 1 (04:59):
The Padres now go from looking unbeatable for all we know,
they get swept by the Marlins that nothing would shock
you in baseball, but the Padres, Danny g you may
root very hard for my Mets because the Mets play
the Padres four games at the end of August, and
those four games down in San Diego, I'm thinking about going.
They might mean a lot, not only for my Mets,

(05:21):
but you might be putting on a Pee Alonzo jersey
that four day with that four day weekend.

Speaker 3 (05:25):
Let's go Mets, right, Yeah, I mean, look, it's hard
to note what your identity is when you haven't had
your healthy lineup in. Not just the pitchers who more
than half of that bullpen has been out. A Gratarol
came back a couple of nights ago, eight pitches in
pulled a muscle and had to be helped off the field.
And not just Bets being out four months, but a

(05:46):
lot of people forget Mounth si'es.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
Bat has been missing.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
So yeah, it's almost like you need a little launching
pad for them to get back into the thick things.
And hopefully opposite of what happened last season the Dodgers
sat for too long cold going into the playoffs, even
if it's wild Card, they go in on a hot streak.
That's all you can hope as a as a baseball fan.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
No, it reminds me of Cavino, you know how a
lot of times because the NBA is a lot of
injuries and load management and all that. Yeah, that sometimes
the playoff rolls around and you're like, you know, this
is this like only the eighth game that these guys
have started together. I feel like come playoff time, you
might see a Dodgers team that out of one hundred
and sixty two games, you might see some crazy stat
like they've only fielded this line up thirty times out

(06:29):
of one hundred and sixty two games.

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Bro, there's only two starters right now that are reliable.
So that's scary going into the home stretch.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
But when you thought a lock of all locks was well,
the nl wes that's the Dodgers, the Diamondbacks and the
Rock and the Padres are both two to two in
the past ten games. They're both lighting it up. The
Dodgers got a little cold, and they are both unstoppable.
So hey, you got a really exciting playoff race in divisions.
And if you notice the Phillies, even the players, the

(07:00):
NL West is heating up right now. And you know what,
can you know your division you're in a dead tie
right now. Forty seven Yankees and Orioles tied. And you
see holidays streaking Baby Holiday hitting bombs for the Orioles. Yeah,
both sixty eight and forty seven. And again, like I said,

(07:22):
there's two ways to look at this. Wow, the Yankees,
the Dodgers, they're still holding on, so I think the
positive is well, then when they get the team back
and they start to gel and create that chemistry again,
they're even better than you think. They're able to hold
on at their worst. What does it say for the
other teams, this was their chance to take over? Then

(07:43):
what about the AL West? Houston and Seattle within a
half a game of each other. And then if you
look at that wildcard in the AL.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
The AL West is equally as close.

Speaker 1 (07:53):
You're right, you got the Yankees, who for some reason,
they're listing them as the wildcard US for tie breaker
and purposes as of now.

Speaker 2 (08:02):
But you got the Yanks or O's.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Then you got Minnesota, Kansas City, Boston, Seattle, Tampa. There's
a lot of teams that are fighting for those wildcards.
So all you could say is that baseball, which for
so many teams used to be boring, lame. After the
All Star Break, I'd say seventy five percent of the
league's Yeah, the.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Only downside is he didn't see a lot of movieig
moves being made at the trade deadline because so many
teams are holding on.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
They're not sellers because they're still in the mix. But
it gets more exciting as we move on.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Yeah, no doubt, no dignity, no doubt.

Speaker 1 (08:36):
So hey, watch keep an eye while you're getting ready
for football, because I know that's king. We all care
about football way more. But if you're a casual or
diehard baseball.

Speaker 2 (08:45):
Fan, n L.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
West went from yeah, it's a Dodgers and maybe someone
else will lock up a wildcard too, whoa not so fast?
Speaking of football, per Danny G suggests you on I
did tune into Hard Knocks last night, and you know
Hard Knocks Chicago Bears starring Kayleb Williams and only Caleb.

Speaker 3 (09:05):
Caleb Williams talk gumvent her. But there was a portion
of the show. We're gonna save this for over promise
because it's very visual. I can tell you to join
us on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page, seven pm Eastern,
four pm on the Mess on the West, We're gonna
talk Matt Eberflus's beard. We're gonna talk beards on over
promise because the only side story about the Bears, aside

(09:25):
from Kayleb Williams, was how different he looks with the beard.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
It's like Simone Biles got some mere time too, little bit. Yeah, no,
I of her husband, you know, not intended, because they
showed a lot of highlights of her too.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
What's what's crazy to me is I think and we'll
take this to over promise later on, because like Cavino said,
it's on the Fox Sports Radio YouTube page. This is
more of a visual conversation, so I know we're gonna
save it. Yeah, so let's say that because the visuals
are very funny. But sometimes a guy with a beard
is more deceptive than a girl with her without makeup.

(10:00):
Like you ever see a girl on Instagram and she's
all done up all the time. Take this as you're
cue to maybe reinvent yourself or something, because he went
from a tired fifty four year old coach to wall.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
Look at this.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Guy, confidence, slick beard, new vibe about him, and that's
the kind of vibe you want for this new young
team moving forward. The guy is not the Matt Eberflus
you remember. It's so crazy to see the difference some
facial hair man. It sounds ridiculous, but if you did
watch Hard Knocks, Eberflus went from it was the takeaway
nerdy looking dude to like.

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Yo, what's it.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
He took a picture of Ryan Reynolds to the barbershop. Yes,
and he grew beard, and his wife's like, ooh, Danny
j my line, he looks good.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
I mean he looks a lot different, that's for.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Sure, there's no doubt. So I speaking of football, we
will talk some of that. Think about that though, guys,
A beard could help you dramatically, where like I said,
picture that Instagram girl who is always done up and
you may have seen her without makeup and you're like,
oh god.

Speaker 2 (11:00):
No, that's for us, dudes. That's one of the only
things we could do. You know, you.

Speaker 1 (11:07):
Say and don't do it, But I'm saying, take the
ownership of men. Often criticize women.

Speaker 3 (11:13):
You don't look like that with your eyelashes and your
plumped up lips and your makeup and everything else, and
you're your hair extensions.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Guess what, eber Flus doesn't look like that either, underneath
all that beard. But it's working for we don't know what.
Danny g's hiding or spot what the heck are you
hiding under there? So we're going to discuss that in
further detail. But you brought up football, rich and I
know you're excited about it, So definitely tune into not
only Hard Knocks Chicago Bears now, but over promised later

(11:45):
today our bonus podcast will be discussing it right after
this show, perfecto. And like we said, Dodgers, Padres, Diamondbacks
definitely something even if you're just a casual baseball fan,
I promise you take a look every day the standings
and the highlights. That is going to be tighter than
you think. Now, a couple things we were talking about baseball.

(12:06):
We walked in right as team USA, SA break out
your best Hacksaw, Jim Duggan, don't shout out to the
host O, don't act like you were rooting for USA
and speaking of Hackso Jim dugganah better ho haxo, Jem
Duggin or ThunderCats good one ThunderCats huh Hacksaw or Thundercat.

(12:32):
Think about it, that's the debate. I'm not ready to half.
I'm gonna throw back Thursday, but what I am ready
to do is present you with a hypothetical that has
to do with basketball and baseball, combining two things, okay,
two things, I'm sorry, which two things basketball and baseball?
So sort of like basketball. I guess you're sort of
like baseball. Not acting like he's a no va or something.

(12:55):
But we watched Team USA ninety five ninety one and
now biders. Buddy Rob just texted me thirty two point
fifteen in the fourth quarter, which is what the US
needed to do. And by the way, if you think
that they're just going through the motions, there was a
lot of passion. There was so much passion involved, which
is great to see. You know, USA did not want
to lose that game. They came through clutch when they

(13:17):
had to. The big name stepped up. But the Serbian
team they were crushed understandably, But you know, it is
interesting to see how much heart is on the line,
how much pride is on the line. Well as you
may think obvious because it's the Olympics, but we watched
it and we're like, dang.

Speaker 2 (13:33):
As as that.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
As the meme goes, Team USA, the Dream Team in
ninety two faced like a handful of NBA players across
the whole Olympic spectrum.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, that's charged. Now every team.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
In the Olympic Basketball Men's division has NBA players that
you know, Bogdanovich, You'll getch like they weren't playing against
some dude that's a plumber and when he's not on
you know, Team Serbia. No, it's definitely more of a
worldwide game. Now these are bawlers. Now, two questions before
I get to my baseball basketball hybrid hypothetical. I'll give

(14:09):
them props because I saw the guys at Barstool did
this in their office, like they went around asking people.
So I'll ask you, I like the guys at Barstool,
if Team USA, now the twenty twenty four team were
to play the nineteen ninety two dream team, not who
would win? What do you think Vegas would have the
odds at? What would what would the points spread be?
And those guys were picking some people picked favorites and

(14:33):
underdogs all over the board. I would say, it's almost
like you're playing the mons Stars, because I think today's
team is just too big and two athletic compared to
that team physically. I'm not saying they're a better team
with better chemistry. But if you're just looking at them.
They're both great teams, but one of them is way
more athletic, your size, more more athleticism involved in today's game,

(14:59):
today's players. I'm not I want to get into those,
Like what if Tyson fought all Leo or so.

Speaker 3 (15:02):
I'm saying based on that they would have the advantage,
they would be odds odds favorite, but they give me
your points break.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
I don't. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
I mean, no one thinks about this. It's an imaginary scenario,
Dan Byer, what says you.

Speaker 4 (15:17):
I'd say that this current team would be favored by eight.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
I was thinking ten, but I thought maybe that's too much.

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Twenty twenty four, there were people that were like dream
team by twelve, and I'm like, you're just delusional. You're
you're being a prisoner of your your childhood and your past.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
I think it might be like current team by four
and a half or something like that, Like, you.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Know, it's team chemistry versus like pure athleticism and size
with today's team. But today's team looked like they were
playing with a lot of heart.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (15:45):
One of the other things I think they have, Toway
is where guys like Magic and Bird were in their careers.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, they were.

Speaker 4 (15:52):
There is no one on this current USA team aside
from Lebron that is really like in their sunset years.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Katie Durant maybe obviously on the.

Speaker 4 (16:01):
Down side of his career, but still a star in
the NBA and top ten player in the NBA, where
Bird at his back issues Magic obviously stepping, you know,
being out of the game, and like there's there was Michael,
there was Patrick Ewing. You know, there were other players,
but this is twelve guys we think are near the

(16:22):
Maybe not Derek White, but when you.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
Saw when you saw like towards the end of the game,
when they really had a step on it to win,
and you see Steph, Lebron and Kad playing at an
elite level. Yeah, you can't tell me that, Like they'd
get killed by Jordan Pippin and you know, Larry Bird
and Magic Johnson.

Speaker 2 (16:38):
It would be a damn good game. And right, a
lot of those guys were past their prime in ninety two.

Speaker 1 (16:43):
If you want to ask me who I'd be rooting for,
then I'd be prisoner of my childhood.

Speaker 4 (16:48):
Absolutely, you had a question, Yeah, I think realistically though,
you have to look at that point and I just
think the newness of those guys playing together. Bird and
Magic were never on the same side ever, there was
never a and for them. In fact, they were on
the polar opposites both geographically and just of their entire careers.
And then for them to be in the same uniform
with such a newness and a something that was so

(17:10):
original that we just ate up every second of and
it still hasn't worn off after thirty two years.

Speaker 2 (17:15):
That's true. It's true.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
So think about that. And I'm gonna give you the
other hypothetical. Now, I'm going to give you a second
to think about it. Hypotheticals, but that is a fun one,
Like what with then how popular the team team was?

Speaker 2 (17:25):
What would the points?

Speaker 1 (17:26):
Meyer just said, like that was shocking just for us
to see. Of course, you know all these greats assembled
on one team, So props to our dudes over a
barstool for that one. But here here's my hypothetical for you.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
I saw this like.

Speaker 1 (17:39):
Some kids playing a basketball court. If I were to say,
you have two options, I'm just gonna give you a
million dollars or does this have to do with Baseball's yeah,
into a basketball You saw this too, I did, okay,
million dollars, Danny g Iowa Sam, I'm gonna give you
a million bucks, or I'm gonna give you a bucket

(17:59):
of ten baseball and you have to make a full
court basket throwing a baseball the same if you get
if you get one of the ten in fifty million dollars,
are you taking your chances or just taking the original million?

Speaker 2 (19:02):
I hate hypotheticals. I really do. Like man, who do
you think will win? Mike Tyson or Muhammad Ali? Would
would Roger Clements, strike out, Bibe Ruth ten. People love that,
but I'm like, I tune out of those.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
I think the dream team one versus today's team is
a fun one, and I just think size and athleticism
puts today's team ahead.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
I don't think.

Speaker 1 (19:23):
The thought of the matchup is as fun as the
hypothetical what would Vegas set the points spread out? Because yeah,
because I immediately thought ten, But I have to take
it back, and I actually agree with Dan Byer. I'm
gonna go eight because you can't deny the the chemistry
of that team.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
They were ballers. You know, We're just to make it clear.
You're saying the current team.

Speaker 1 (19:43):
By current Yes, current team by eight. But then guys
like Len hit us up? Len from Idaho?

Speaker 2 (19:48):
What up? Len? Not buying it?

Speaker 3 (19:50):
The toughness, the attitude, the never lose attitude would be
far superior. Just the toughness and tenacity of yesteryear's team
would beat today's team.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
And listen, lent share is the sentiment of a lot
of people. But I just wonder if that is glorifying
your childhood the same way you you know, someone would
be like, yeah, dude, Metallica is the greatest like like
you know, but that's why he makes a point. That's
why I'm going from like ten to like eight. I
still think today's team would win. Like you don't think
big too strong, You don't think Lebron James is a
superior athlete to any of those guys, Damn buyer, what

(20:25):
do you think about?

Speaker 4 (20:26):
Could you imagine bookmakers being like, well they want it more? Yeah,
that's like, no, No, it does not work like that. Now,
motivation is sometimes brought into it, but that's usually when
the line is set in trying to determine, all right,
how is this team good affair or that team good affair?
They may win, nineteen ninety two may win, But when
you're talking about setting the line and how it would

(20:48):
lay out, I just don't see any way why this
how this dream team would not be favored in that game.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
Yea, And dudes where ballers though, And that's why it's fun.
It's not to knock on them, but just look at
like physically look at them compared to this team. Doesn't
mean they couldn't win, like Dan said, but I think
that's how it would size up, and with the conditioning
that they have today, if those guys lived in a
different era. Oh yeah, that's why catheticals, for the most part,

(21:14):
don't intrigue me. But that team was so good that
I could actually see them competing.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
Now.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
Your other hypothetical is based on a viral clip which
I also saw. Again, if I offered you a million dollars,
no strings attack, no strings.

Speaker 2 (21:28):
Attached, would you take it?

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Or would you take ten opportunities to throw a baseball
into a basketball net full court for fifty million dollars.

Speaker 2 (21:36):
I'm taking my ten shots.

Speaker 1 (21:37):
I'm taking my ten shots easy, and I'll explain why
anyone else have a thought on this.

Speaker 2 (21:43):
I'm taking the money guaranteed.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
Really, you're gonna take one million to practice the bait throwing.
You're talking about throwing baseball's full court for the fun.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
Of it until opposition.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
No, Sam, you can down a baseball before it no practice.
Here's ten shots. You can either throw them in and
get one in for fifty million, or.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Just your baseball.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
But I don't know if I've tried to throw a
baseball full court into a basketball hoop a little practice,
I'm not sure I'm taking the money.

Speaker 2 (22:07):
The guy in this real hits it on his first try.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
That's why there's no question, And after seeing that, I'm like,
I could do that. The question is would the nerves
get to you if there was a real fifty million
dollars on the table, would your nerves get to just
problem bit it's a mind game then, so these dudes
I just took the hypothetical. I guess he made the
first shot. I would take my chances for the fifty
million on this Normally. The two reasons I mulch more

(22:32):
trust my baseball and throwing ability.

Speaker 1 (22:34):
Now, listen, you haven't played baseball a long time. I
play softball every week. I know softball baseball different, but
I'm throwing every week of my life and I never
stopped from the high school to college till now. I'm
still throwing a ball every week. We throw football around
the studio. There's two reasons why I would take the
ten shots at fifty mil. Because fifty mil is substantially

(22:55):
life changing, where a million dollars is not.

Speaker 2 (22:58):
So that's number one. Number two.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
A basketball court is ninety four feet long, which means
it's only four feet longer than base to base in baseball.
So that's like saying, can you throw a strike from
second base to first base, if you're playing shortstop or
third base, can you feel the ground ball and throw
a strike to the first baseman and a basketball or
soccer ball or a kickball would bounce around.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
A baseball hits a backboard and just drops. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
The guy that does it, he takes the physical challenge
Double Dare style first shot. He tells Mark Summers, I'll
take the physical challenge. He hits it off the backboard,
no bounce, goes right in and then he pulls the
orange flag out of the big rubber nose. And there's
a big second pancakes and he pulls the flag out
of there and he.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
Wins the physical challenge. Dan Bayer, did you think about it?
Would you take the million or the Double Dare physical challenge?

Speaker 2 (23:51):
And what physical challenge would you want to do on Double.

Speaker 4 (23:53):
Tack Well Sunday slide as.

Speaker 3 (23:58):
You used to think my family would suck on it
show right. I used to be like, I wonder how bad?

Speaker 4 (24:03):
But I thought of what friend I would go with?
Not him, Oh, I'd go with him for sure, but
I wouldn't go with him. I also wouldn't be good
in the peanut butter and jelly finding the flower pick
your nose.

Speaker 2 (24:17):
I thought the hamster.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
Wheel or the the jumping in the ball pit was
pretty easy.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
That stuff that I could handle.

Speaker 4 (24:24):
I would I would probably have to go for the
fifty million.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Yeah. Yeah, that's like a life changing opportunity.

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Yeah, yeah, there's It's just like it's the game show dilemma, right,
how many times you're gonna be on the prices?

Speaker 7 (24:36):
Right?

Speaker 2 (24:36):
How many times you're gonna play?

Speaker 1 (24:37):
You know, it's funny all Or there's a show I
watch on Amazon with my wife sometimes just because it's
easy background. See, I'm a pellet cleansed type of guy.
Like if I watch a serious, deep like crime show,
I can't go right to bed. I'm like, Rich has
to watch Nard Sharks. I'm like, put on something nonsense.
There's a show called The One Percent Club hosted by
Patton Oswalt on Amazon. Yeah, and my wife and I

(25:00):
as a point of the game where the people could
be like I'm out and they get a thousand dollars
and I'm like, why would you do all that to
be like, oh, now thousand dollars, like go for the
hundreds of thousands, Like what are you doing?

Speaker 4 (25:11):
That show needs a lot more money, Yes, I've seen it.
I've seen like the Australian version, Jim Jeffries, comedian host
the version as well. But yeah, to that point, if
there was something on the back end, like if you
didn't make it, then you couldn't say, I don't know,
watch baseball for a year or like ten years or
something like that. Then you have a real decision. But
I think that you have to go for the fifty million. Agreed,

(25:33):
he didn't buy it.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
Before your update, I saw Jim Jefferies in an elevator
at Serious XM one time, and I saw him. He's
se in his leather jacket and his pompadoora and he's
just sitting there.

Speaker 3 (25:44):
I'm like, yo, I'm like, Jeff Jeffries, man, I love you, dude.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
And he's like, it's Jim, nice to meet you.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
I could be a walk away with shame.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
A huge fan Jeff Jefferies, Jeffries man, I love you, dude.
It's Jim. That is great.

Speaker 1 (26:01):
At least you didn't call him Greg Jeffries your favorite
future star.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
All Right, damn fire, let's do this. What do we
got update time? Yeah, it's uh, we are. We are
following the story.

Speaker 4 (26:09):
That is Team USA and what a game it was
today in Serbia at one point down seventeen, but in
the end, what's up.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Short in the United States trailing by as seventeen.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
To the gold medal game.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
NBC Universal Peacock USA Network with that call as the
United States top Serbia ninety five ninety one, outscoring Serbia
in the fourth quarter thirty two to fifteen. Steph Curry
at thirty six points, Lebron James nineteen points, twelve rebounds,
ten assists, Joelle Embiid the only other American in double figures.
But the Americans will move on to face France in

(26:49):
the gold medal game on Saturday, after the French dropped
Germany seventy three to sixty nine. Another story that we've
been following throughout these games is American spriner Noah Lyles
come to find out after he won bronze at the
two hundred meters that he had COVID, which is maybe
one of the reasons why he did not get the
double gold. He was the gold medal winner and the
one hundred meter in that photo finish, but settles for

(27:09):
a bronze in the two hundred meters.

Speaker 1 (27:13):
We have lots to get to next hour. People you
want to punch in the nose. But right now, look
at the time.

Speaker 2 (27:21):
If there's a surgeon, yea, what we gonna do is
go back.

Speaker 5 (27:27):
Back into town, throwing it back for a Thursday. Old
school went fifty. That's fifty after CNR give you the
time capsule topic and we reminisce together.

Speaker 8 (27:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
Yeah, I'm trying to check my IMDb right now, not
my personal one, though you will see that. I'm on
Grand Theft Audio audio and oh no, Grand Theft Photo.
But I was looking up Tutsi to see what year
it came out, and he guesses, Tutsi.

Speaker 3 (27:59):
Toot no, No, I mean eight two, Yeah, eighty two.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
That was just a little pumpkin pie haircutted kid. And
I remember how big that was when you're a kid,
like everything's big to you.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
You Danny are a couple of years older than me.

Speaker 1 (28:14):
I missed Tootsie along the way, but I know today
Dustin Hoffman, well that's the point.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
Celebrate some birthday turns eighty seven. Yeah, dude, he's one
hundred and eighty seven. Hold on correction, so he's eighty
seven today.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Legendary actors Dustin Hoffman and one of the biggest movies
in the early eighties was Tootsie Again eighty two, and
Vince Faun was also in the news this week saying
comedies are on life support.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
There's just a blueprint that people follow. They take the
safe route. They don't take risks, they don't lean into
the funny, they don't take chances for political correctness reasons.
They just don't want to do anything that could cost
the studio money. They take the safe route, and as
a result, we lose when it comes to creative Yeah,
he was just saying, like, if you're a movie director

(29:04):
or producer, you just don't want to get fired.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
You don't want to get canceled. You want you don't
want to be pushed aside. So it's safer to follow
a more current day blueprint, which could lead to.

Speaker 2 (29:14):
A lot less funny.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
And by the way, for the younger people listening, Yeah,
Dustin Hoffman, he's gay.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
Lord Falker's dad didn't meet the Falkers walk I walked
me be be for people like rich Davis only know
him as such.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Well, I'm saying for people that didn't watch the graduate
in Tutsie and movies from the seventies and eighties.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
Graduate saying a graduate is a classic.

Speaker 1 (29:38):
I know, so Dustin Hoffman, No, you're right, I'm like kidding,
but don't forget hook Yeah, I mean mine, mine, mine
now now now sort of a legendary guy man versus
Creamer Marathon Man. Let's think about it, because Danny g
was pretty adamant. He's like Tutsie would never fly today

(29:58):
because he dresses up like a woman. That's the premise
of the movie. I forget like what he was trying
to do, but it was very missus doubtfire.

Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, well to missus doubtfire out of the bay.

Speaker 1 (30:07):
Now, imagine like posing and dressing up as an old
lady so you could see your kids in the middle
of a custody battle.

Speaker 7 (30:12):
That.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
I don't think that would fly.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
How about any movie where someone dresses up with the
sensitivity of sexuality and transgender this and that?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Like any lady bugs. Wasn't the girl pretending to be
a boy on the soccer show? You though?

Speaker 1 (30:26):
How oh you could say how insensitive we were back
then or how serious we are now. The whole premise
back then was like, yeah, Dustin Hoffen was he was such.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
A great woman in that movie.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
He played such a great woman, didn't he And the
same thing with Missus Downtfire. Yeah, you know, hey, aw Man,
Robert Williams is so great as Missus Downfire. Some people
really would or might be I'm not saying definitely, but
might be offended by that. By the way, I just
looked at up to see was since he was given
a ninety one percent on Rotten Potatoes, so people still

(30:59):
love it all right? So now, based on all that
what Vince Wand said and Dustin Hoffman in this thought,
movies that wouldn't fly today based on the plot line.

Speaker 1 (31:08):
I think, not only plotline, but scenes like can you
think of a scene from an old comedy with like
is dated? Like perfect answer, and I'll save it and
we'll take all your feedback. I got a few movies
that come to mind for me rich and a few
movie parts like maybe the movie would still exist, but
the parts would not exist. I mean in today's can
I just give the blanket statement of any eighties like

(31:30):
frat movie where there was a peephole into a woman's
locker room.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
Like that was just so bad. It was like so
matter of fact, like, yeah, let's.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Just let's peek into the women's private area, like what well,
you know, speaking of those like cheesy eightiespes or raunchy
eighties comedies. I was thinking about this because it wouldn't
It's not that it wouldn't fly, but it wouldn't make sense.
It kind of would make says, but not really. Let
me explain Revenge of the Nerds, because nerd today is
like the new cool. Yeah, it just nerds is almost

(32:01):
like the whole bully concept.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
If you were a nerd in the eighties, you're getting
a wedgie and that was funny nerds. Revenge of the Nerds.
Nerd is the new cool today.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
It's almost weird, like the nerdier you are, everybody loves you.
I'm not sure you get the same nowadays.

Speaker 1 (32:16):
Kids get bullied in different ways social media, you know,
that type of that one. Maybe the movie exists, but
this point or plot wouldn't exist the John Hughes classic
of sixteen Candles, because not only does he get criticized
now for not having enough diversity in his movies, which
which I don't see. I just think that's how it
was back then. But Molly Ringwold feels different, where the

(32:40):
whole joke is long duck Dong and he's the foreign guy.
I think people again would would take that differently, like
you're making fun of the foreign.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Guy in this way.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Doug and Philly hit us up, saying, while they're great
and hilarious, the Rush Hour movies are all based on
mocking even though he's the action star, like every clip
is Jackie Chan and the language barrier, like nows that
are coming out of my mouth, like everything else to
do with don't think that we're offended by this, by
by any stretch of the imagination.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
We're just saying, would it fly today? We think?

Speaker 1 (33:13):
I mean, I love sixteen kids on my favorite movies,
uh in the eighties, So what else comes to mind
based on that old school and fifty hits. Let's start
with you guys, and then again I have I have
a bunch that I want to throw by you guys,
but we'll start with Susan. Ladies first, South Florida, what's up?

Speaker 2 (33:29):
Susan was fine?

Speaker 7 (33:32):
How about the home alone series? The three of them?

Speaker 2 (33:35):
Yeah, Susan, I just it's on my list.

Speaker 3 (33:38):
Yeah, I was on the internet's list too. Richly said
promoted violence.

Speaker 1 (33:42):
Oh no, I was gonna say child endangerment, endangerment child.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
Dude, if you went on vacation and left your kid
at home, dude, be in jail.

Speaker 3 (33:50):
You can't even go out for a pack of smokes
and leave your kid at home and you'll get arrested.
We were all latch key kids though, so it didn't
offend us. No, We're like, oh, we.

Speaker 2 (33:58):
Get to be at home.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
See but this See, those are the chances that studios
don't want to take today. Like that's sort of thinking
that sort of backlash instead of just you know, leaving
all your common sense at the door and just enjoying
the film.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
They're worried about that tiny little bit of population on
Twitter that's going to like, yeah, you know, vocal.

Speaker 2 (34:16):
keV in Florida. What's up, Kevin?

Speaker 9 (34:19):
Yes, how you doing? But first of all, guys, Dan
sent me one of your swiggies and I really love it.
I'm going to actually a litle prayer on it. I'm
gonna give it.

Speaker 2 (34:30):
To my son.

Speaker 9 (34:31):
He's he's got his own pressure washing business. We're down
here in Florida where it's hot as a all get
out every single day. And that's a gift for me,
a little late Father's Day gift. But I loved equally
the beautiful signature Leyden note that you guys had. It's
just I love your show. I love pretty much most

(34:51):
of the shows on the Fox Radio Sports Radio, but
the way that you guys can almost not even talk
about sports.

Speaker 8 (34:59):
And get away.

Speaker 2 (35:01):
Yeah, don't tell anyone. So what is your what did
you have an answer? Kevin? Any other movies that come
to mind.

Speaker 3 (35:07):
Your Guys's radio show wouldn't have flown in the eighties. Definitely, No,
for sure, Thank you. I got one for you, Kevin
and Florida. I recently watched this movie for the first
time in easily a decade. I don't know what made
me find it, but I watched Teen Wolf with Michael J.
Fox And by the way, what a great basketball scene
him in Chubbs.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
That are such a great movie.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
There's a scene in Teen Wolf where they throw a
guy or and a girl in a closet and it's
like high school, like, yeah, go hook up and the
girls all heasitan. It's like we put her in there, dude,
it's so inappropriate, Like there's so many inappropriate you know,
from today's lens.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
It's like, what what he rips her shirt with his
claws yes, you brought up Michael J. Fox.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
So let me just sell the premise of Back to
the Future to you. He goes back in time and
his mother has a crush on him. That's a little
odd when you think about it. From the wait hold on,
so now his mother has the Hotspur hot.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Tmtime machine crossed a lot of it again.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
What was going on between the Biff and Lorraine in
the car that was kind of aggressive, you know? And
how about the whole Libbyan scene. You think that'd be
okay today? Let me tell you, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
So I say the movie exists, but they would have
to change some plot lines here.

Speaker 1 (36:20):
Yeah, by the way, Biff very racist to the black
band in the high school, Bif and secondly Kui not.
I mean, what a great actor. But Biff, let's be honest,
he's like going to rape the mom. Like he's in
the car with her getting handsy, and it's like co
savor and everyone's just chilling out right. Like I think

(36:40):
it's one of they say, the closest thing to a
perfect movie. Except for that, I think they would make
some adjustments in today's world, No doubt. I got I
got one more recent, but I think that looking back,
it was such an early part of the Internet.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Do you remember an American pie? Not the whole Uh?
You know, sticking is junk in the pie. How about
the part where the hot girl Naudia is stripping and
isn't he like streaming it? Yes on the Internet. Yes,
but I don't think he's streaming it on purpose.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Remember jail Time, Danny j jail Time, right, Like she
throws her bra or something and it lands on the
webcand and like turns it on. I don't think he
was intentional. Na Yeah, played by Shannon Elizabeth.

Speaker 2 (37:21):
No consent there?

Speaker 1 (37:21):
Who was on our showback in those days, This beautiful woman.
Now it could be not only just because of political
correctness technology, Like, there's a lot of movies where just
a simple cell phone call erases the whole plot.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
Oh, I know what you're thinking of the movie?

Speaker 1 (37:36):
Remember the movie great movie Stiffler's in it Shun William Scott,
DJ Quells Breckenmeier road Trip. Do you remember he films
him getting busy with some girl, but he puts the
wrong VHS tape in the mail to his girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Yeah, all it would take would be a cell phone call. Hey,
I left the wrong VHS tape.

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Yeah, like that whole movie would have been stopped with
a phone call.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
With a phone call, but it's in the same bed
home alone.

Speaker 3 (38:07):
Right.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Technology Yeah, technology changes a lot of the movies that
we just accepted back then.

Speaker 3 (38:12):
So old school and fifty hits aren't a lot of
movies though. About suspending your your disbelief a little bit,
that's the part of movies. You're right, that's why you
gotta sit down. You just got to be like, all right,
this is the premise. That's true, Sam.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
But that's also the problem today based on what Vince
Vaughn was saying, you know what I mean, Like they're
two dissected. Who's offended by what?

Speaker 2 (38:31):
People?

Speaker 1 (38:31):
People are always looking really now, they're always looking for
that thing to complain about. Like what movie came out
today and it got zero percent on rotten potatoes, that
new Kevin Hart movie. I'm saying potatoes. Yeah, well I
know it's tomatoes. But people are in today's world more
quick rotten potatoes. This is more quick to cut everything
down and find that little nugget of what bothers me

(38:54):
or what offends me. The uh Borderlands came out this weekend, everybody.
I never even heard of that, Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee, Curtis,
Kate Blanchett, Jack Black, Star, Study Cast. I don't think
Kevin Hart wants you to know about this one.

Speaker 3 (39:08):
Now, let's go back to the phones eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox, Old School and fifty hits movies
that just wouldn't fly today for whatever reason.

Speaker 2 (39:15):
Bruno in Brooklyn, what's up.

Speaker 7 (39:17):
Bruno, gentlemen, Good afternoon. Another epic show you hey saying
they hate all the Carls out there, this one they'd
burn its theater down. I think it's number one, blazing shadow,
Kevin Burne theater.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
Down one hundred percent. You know what's funny is Mike,
who runs this place also said the same thing. You
know what, there's Mike who runs this place. And I'm
sure every one of our dads or older uncles quote
that movie, and they'll probably quote.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
Some the white women at.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
Yeah, from the movie that's a little like ooh, maybe
you should see that out loud, dad. But even the
slapstick stuff. What about the airplane movies? You don't think
those would fly away?

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Where the white women at? Dude?

Speaker 1 (39:56):
Again, if you're just joining us not to say it's
not funny still because it is.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
It's just the sensitivity.

Speaker 1 (40:03):
Why do we accommodate that like one percent of weenies.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Because that's who's on the come up spending money at
the theater. No, it's not.

Speaker 3 (40:10):
I think we'll move past it, like society always moves
past these things. Like if we're offended by these things,
now there will be like people rebelling against all this stuff.

Speaker 2 (40:18):
I mean they're doing it right now.

Speaker 3 (40:19):
Maybe in ten years, like we'll be ready for those
like trading places style of movies.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Again, I was sam. I always ask myself this question.
It's a great question, they ask yourself, no joke. Anytime
someone says, yeah, hey you see that man people are offended?
Always ask who people who? How many people like?

Speaker 5 (40:35):
Who?

Speaker 2 (40:35):
Like?

Speaker 1 (40:36):
When someone's like people are out, did you see the
news such and such man? People are straw man argument.
I always say two tell me. I want one person
to tell me I'm the one offended because a lot
of times I think it just uh nonsense on social
media that it gets, you know, blown out of proportion.
There is one that I love that Ben Steller has

(40:56):
taken a hard stance and said no, it's a movie
it's comedy.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
I don't regret it. And that is tropic thunder.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Oh yeah, Ben still is like, dude, it's a comedy,
it's a movie and him and Robert Junior. And I'll
say it was a time and a place. But you
think that someone would take that chance. Now, there's still
people years ago, there's still people that will take the chance.
Cause we know what Ben, what uh, what Vince Vaughna
is saying is that Robert Downey Junior does in that
movie has caused so much backlash for people like Jimmy

(41:22):
Kimmel and everybody else.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
I don't think anyone.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Would take that hit on that note, because we're talking
about Robert Downey Junior in blackface, Yeah, about the nineteen
eighty six movies Soulman, No Ever a Door, because that's
that's literally a white guy, yeah, putting on blackface so
he can portray himself or present himself as a black
guy to get a scholarship like that would never go down.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
You know what, I think.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
I think racism, and rightfully so, is the only the
only official This can't happen because a lot of the
other things you're talking about, Like like I was going
to say but it's not racism, Like like, uh, soulman,
he just brought up that movie was like a heartfelt movie.

Speaker 5 (42:04):
It was.

Speaker 2 (42:04):
It was a stupid comedy. It wasn't with mal intent.
Oh no, no, I'm saying. But still, like, who would
take that chance? Dude?

Speaker 1 (42:11):
None of this too much money to be lost. None
of this upsets me or anyone I would associate with.
But I'm saying the people that do get offended, I
think racial jokes are the only thing that might be
like ooh, because I think depending on your cancel factor,
Like there's comedians that are pushing the envelope now because
they're fans don't care, Like Shane Gillis. Shane Ghillis pushes

(42:32):
the envelope because you know why his fan base doesn't care.
If that's the thing about niche audiences in twenty twenty four.
If you know who your fans are, if they don't
care when they say, oh, they're gonna get canceled?

Speaker 2 (42:45):
Yeah by who?

Speaker 1 (42:47):
If the people that support you are okay with it,
Like Kanye West had some really dumb stuff. But if
Kanye still has people that love them regardless, is he
really canceled? He's uncancellable.

Speaker 3 (42:57):
I guess well, Joe Rogan's uncancellable, like you know, you
just he's got so much power any listeners.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
Portnoy at Barstool.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
There's certain people that are uncanceled Onlay Travis, Clay Travis,
because there's people that they're if their fan base believes
what they're saying and is with them, you can't be canceled.

Speaker 2 (43:13):
They know where you stand. Chappelle.

Speaker 3 (43:15):
Chappelle can't be canceled, by the way, really quick rich
on that topic. And it's not a comedy, but our
grandparents would probably call it one of the classic movies.
Gone with the Wind is on all these lists that
keep coming up because it as this site right here
says largely uncritical of slavery.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
Yeah, they didn't creditate it.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
It's a time piece, but I'm not saying it's an
accurate time piece, but it could be offensive to some people. Yeah,
how about this one, guys, a comedy that you would
say that's so stupid and silly? How could how could
anyone be upset by it? But because of I mean
just look at the Olympics. People are finding about women
wrestling right, I'm sorry, women boxing? Would there be people

(43:57):
offended by Ray she's a woman, she's a guy, Ray
Finkeel and they play the crying game.

Speaker 3 (44:05):
How about Naked Gun When Leslie Nielsen sees that Anna
Nicole Smith has a unit and he goes to vomit.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
Remember, I mean, you know you can't vomit. That is
that offensive in today's world.

Speaker 1 (44:17):
You have to be like, oh, that's your choice, and
I respected I respect it.

Speaker 3 (44:22):
Leslie Nielson would have to respect it in that scene,
all right.

Speaker 1 (44:26):
So Jim Carrey would have to go Finkel's Einhorn. Einhorn
Finkel And there's nothing wrong with that, Joe, And that's okay.
And that's okay if and we should support we should
support Einhorn.

Speaker 3 (44:38):
Oh wow, See, it just wouldn't fly the same way.

Speaker 2 (44:42):
What about white chicks the Wayne's brothers dressing up like
white women. I think that would still be I think
it would because.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
They want to make a second one. I think people
would love it. It exists today, but would they make
it today? All right, Let's go to the phones. Back
to the phones eight seven seven nine on Fox. A
lot of people chime in. We do this every Thursday,
Old school and fifty hits.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
Again.

Speaker 1 (45:04):
This is because of Vince Vaughn's conversation on hot ones
and tutsie. Would that be made today? Dustin Hoffman as
a woman. It's his birthday, he's eighty seven, he's all
to sell. Who do we got to dj? Let's go
to Pete in Vegas.

Speaker 8 (45:18):
A Pete Calvino.

Speaker 7 (45:20):
You're killing me.

Speaker 8 (45:21):
This is the best I've ever.

Speaker 2 (45:22):
Heard you Rich.

Speaker 8 (45:26):
I'm originally from Belleville. So you're a Union farmer. Yeah,
arch arrival over there in the Union.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
That's right, Union, New Jersey.

Speaker 8 (45:36):
Yeah, I'm from Palful anyway, what about Animal Houses? Probably
got a little such stuff in it that they couldn't
show today, was like when they go to the bar
and the black guys go Koe dance, which look kate.

Speaker 3 (45:51):
Yeah no, there's definitely some racial that besides racial, some
racial jokes in there. That movie's on some of these lists.
It says toxic masculinity.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
Oh boy, by the way, can you know you want
that guy's number? You guys can hang out later. Yeah,
he's from Velvet.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Yea cool. Hey you want to get a drink with Covino? Yeah?
You guys could. Yeah, it be fun.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
Let's hang out man. Thank you buddy, do we want
to go to Minnesota or Colorado?

Speaker 2 (46:12):
Danny g what do you say? Let's start with Tony
in Colorado? Tone, what's up? Hey? Ton to Yo?

Speaker 5 (46:17):
How you doing?

Speaker 2 (46:18):
What's up? What up? Buddy?

Speaker 3 (46:20):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (46:20):
Nothing? The guy took mine.

Speaker 8 (46:22):
It's the Animal House.

Speaker 7 (46:23):
But there is a throwaway line towards the end of
the film where a girl says out loud, I'm only thirteen.

Speaker 2 (46:31):
Yeah, yeah, I was just thinking about that.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
Yeah, yeah, there are They are like, oh, that's a joke,
but like nowadays, not such.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
He's like, she's like, I'm only thirteen. He's like, oh, okay,
some old school rock and roll songs like that too.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
You ever noticed that a lot of the movies you
grew up with two are like weird relationships with young
boys and older guys. It's like, all right, mister Miaggi,
all right, Doc Immitt Brown, Like what are you doing
now with these young dudes.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
You're bringing up in the movie. They're like, what are
you doing hanging out that old coot? Yeah, but we
just have Marty just had a fascination for me kid
hanging out with some weirdo. He had an amp for
Marty to plug his guitar they have.

Speaker 1 (47:09):
But that's shame of today's perspective because, like Sam was saying,
we just accepted it.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
We're like, yeah, they got a great friendship. Kid, come
play your guitar in my house. I got a great amp.
You know. We're like, yeah, they their best.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
But if you watch Cobra Kaite forty years later, I
got larus Is like mister Mocky was like a dad
to me.

Speaker 2 (47:28):
Like, you'll get over Miyagi.

Speaker 1 (47:29):
Do Speaking of old guys with kids, like the old
school Bad News Bears, you don't see little league coaches
if they don't have a kid on the team any
I know, right, otherwise you just to creep the old guy. So,
mister Buttermaker is a creep if you don't have kids
on the team. But the things they say in the
original Little Bad News Bears, it's way on PC. You know,

(47:50):
they call everybody every derogatory term you can think of.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
I don't know, I don't think sanm Loott. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (47:56):
If he could say someone throws like a girl, that's
pretty rough. Oh no, we actually asked that great Handbino
about that. He said he was the first to say
Patrick Renna that that line wouldn't fly today.

Speaker 1 (48:08):
I have one last time that we'll take one. Well,
let's go to Bob in Minnesota first. So what's up, Bobby?

Speaker 2 (48:13):
Yeah, what's good to Bob Hanger once there?

Speaker 7 (48:15):
Have you guys seen the movie John Tucker Must Die?

Speaker 2 (48:18):
Yeah? Yeah, I have seen that movie. Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 7 (48:21):
It's it's about a guy who's a player. He's dating
three different women and the plot becomes the women all
end up finding out that like, she's dating all three
of them at the same time. So the movie ends
up becoming all about women empowerment. We're going to get
back at this guy. We're going to show him what's what.

(48:42):
And at the end of the movie they confront him
about it and he's he just kind of shrugs his shoulders, like, hey,
I'm a player, what do you want from me? The
whole school like breaks out into a food fight, and
it's just kind of that's the movie, you.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
Know, I had, and we applaud that guy. Yeah, I
had one of the thing.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Guys.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
Cool, you know these drabbronis got me yesterday with a
stupid trend.

Speaker 3 (49:12):
I Got Got, I Got Got, and you could see it.
It was so good and Rich on our Instagram. It's
already got tens of thousands of views.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
I can't believe it. It's the uh one at a
time people say give me my money, give me my money.
Then I got got like a fool, and you could
see it and laugh at my expense. For some reason,
everybody loves to laugh at my expense. At Covino and

a Drake story about Serena Williams. We're gonna talk about
old school sports references and songs. That's all on over,
promised Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page immediately after this show.
Now we're wrapping up this conversation old school in fifty hits.

Speaker 2 (50:28):
We do this every Thursday.

Speaker 1 (50:29):
Movies that wouldn't fly today, just based on technology, based
on political correctness, the sensitivity of today. It's Dustin Hoffman's birthday, Toutsie.
You know what else I thought of? I always Sam,
you had a good.

Speaker 3 (50:46):
One off the air, So please explain the ringer with
Johnny Knoxville. Heartfelt, great movie, But I don't know if
that would be a risk at a studio or any
actor would want.

Speaker 1 (50:59):
To take Johnny knox Well, that movie ended up being
really hard felt, and he pays tribute to all the
Special Olympians, but he pretends to be in the Special Olympics.
If you think someone wants to take that chance right now?
And then it made me think of Dustin Hoffman again
with rain Man, who again he was applauded for that role,
but like would any comedian or serious actor, anybody really

(51:20):
wanted to pick it.

Speaker 2 (51:21):
On hard to pull that role off.

Speaker 3 (51:23):
But then you're going into the category of actors who
play roles that are there either they're not their race,
or they're playing somebody who's you're risking backlash today the
challenge the race thing. I get. You couldn't have John
Wayne play Genghis Cony. I don't think you should have
a white dude playing Ninja, but I do. However, like

(51:45):
I saw someone complaining that Brian promise, you got a
problem with Tom Cruise, I do.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
I did see some bozo was had a problem with
Brian Kranston playing a guy in a wheelchair and they're like,
there should have kissed someone in a.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
Wheelchair or I don't know.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
Brian Cranston one of the greatest actors. So sometimes it's
a little overboard. But let's go rapid fire. Then we'll
get the Dann Buyer's update really quick.

Speaker 3 (52:04):
Rich Before I hit the first line here during the break,
I was thinking of one eighties had this on VHS tape,
One of my mom's favorite movies, Would Never Fly Nowadays.
Kurt Russell forced Goldie Hawn into being his slave and
help him raise those chicken box crappy kids. Yeah, in
Overboard that love them Never roll nowadays.

Speaker 5 (52:25):
So fun.

Speaker 1 (52:25):
They made a remake of it recently, but they mocked
how ridiculous it was speaking of Kurt Russell. I'm wearing
a big Trouble in Little China t shirt today. I'm
not sure if anyone picks energy that. Yeah, all right,
let's get back to the phones to wrap us up,
and then we're thinking about who you want to punch
in the nose.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
I was going to report you for cultural appropriation. It's
one of my favorite movies. Let's start with Josh and Virginia. Yeah, Josh,
how are you man?

Speaker 7 (52:47):
Hey?

Speaker 3 (52:47):
Good?

Speaker 5 (52:47):
Good?

Speaker 1 (52:48):
So.

Speaker 9 (52:48):
One one show that I feel like would not fly
in this day is an old show.

Speaker 7 (52:54):
Called Bosom Bosom Buddies.

Speaker 9 (52:56):
Tom Tom Hanks actually got his start on it.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
Yeah, that was Tom Hanks and the other guy and
the other guy and you know, yeah they were they
were pretending to be women.

Speaker 1 (53:03):
That's a little you know, in today's world, probably not
just not willing to take the chance. Right now, Who
else do we got? That's Mark in Indiana? Hey, Mark, Mark?

Speaker 2 (53:13):
Hey, how you guys doing? What's up?

Speaker 5 (53:15):
Man?

Speaker 2 (53:15):
What's your answer?

Speaker 7 (53:17):
Well? Uh, Jackie Gleason and Richard Pryor in the Toy.

Speaker 1 (53:23):
Yeah, I agree, because they bought the young, spoiled rich
kid who became a porn star in real life. By
the way, he was that a little kid from a
Christmas story that got his tongue stuck.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
Anyway, did he did he play that plot line in
the porn?

Speaker 1 (53:36):
No? They they they he's like I want him. So
they bought Richard Pryor.

Speaker 2 (53:40):
Thought Richard Pryor was amusing.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
Yeah, he thought Richard pry was amusing. So he could
have any toy you wanted. He wanted Richard Pryor, so
they essentially buy him, which was funny back in the eighties.
But yeah, I don't know about now. Uh, Nick and Virginia, Hey.

Speaker 7 (53:53):
Nick, Yeah, many all went to TV. What about All
in the Family or.

Speaker 2 (54:00):
Jefferson's.

Speaker 1 (54:03):
Yeah, there were a lot of But you know, people
look back at those as, uh they were such they
were so well done that the racism was satirical.

Speaker 2 (54:11):
So when things are satirical like that, I think they
find it almost helped move things forward. Yeah, Rights movie,
I don't know though you made. Yeah. Look, do you
see Looney Tunes nowadays? No, because they're too violent.

Speaker 1 (54:23):
You know, you could watch them still, but I don't
know if they wouldn't make that today. If you want to,
if if you want to be like you know, sort
of disappointed. HBO max I have has Looney Tunes and
each season has most of the episodes not available because
there's some type of.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
Violence school that's ridiculous. Yeah, it is. Let people watch
that they want to watch, and was considered aggressive.

Speaker 1 (54:47):
Do you think you were because we always joke about
how Cavino was an elite Little League player and then
you just never grew like Cavino the size he is now.
You were five to ten when you were twelve, Yeah,
hitting bomb. Do you think you would have been an
elite guy if you were? And like the televised Litle
League World said, I think no question, because I was
hitting home runs in every All Star game every twenty
seven bro notin if you kept growing, If I kept growing, yeah,

(55:12):
all potentials endless. So get this, I'm watching the Little
League World Series and and they do a great chomp.

Speaker 2 (55:19):
But one of the kids' names was and there he is.

Speaker 3 (55:23):
Stepping up to the plate, Sweet Lou Fernandez. I don't
remember his last name, and they're like, if that's not
a baseball name, I don't know what is John. They're like, yeah,
like Sweet Lou Whittaker and then they go yeah and
sweet Lou Lou. You know now he goes Captain Leeuwell
he goes, well you got me. That's all I got.

(55:46):
And I'm like, you guys are on ESPN. You can't
think of another Sweet Lou Panella.

Speaker 2 (55:52):
Give me a break.

Speaker 1 (55:53):
He's such a Yankee. I wanted to punch him right
in the nose. Every person thinks of Loop Penela. I'm
using this. Yes, yes, you mean World Series champion with
the Reds manager baseball yankee Loop Penella.

Speaker 2 (56:05):
Yes, Sweet, I would make.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
A wager right now that across the minute, that across
the sports you're on ESPN.

Speaker 2 (56:13):
It's all you got. I bet Garrick. I uh, I
bet you.

Speaker 1 (56:18):
I bet you across the sports world today, radio, television, podcasting.
You're the only person that has made a Loopanello reference
in the last month.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Doesn't matter. I'm not saying he's current day.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
You think you think Loopenel is on anyone's mind?

Speaker 2 (56:33):
Doesn't matter? Was Dustin Hoffman on anyone's mind today?

Speaker 1 (56:36):
We talked about him, I wouldn't think, Sweet Loopanello. Well,
then why don't you join ESPN because your a bonehead
like them already worked there.

Speaker 2 (56:42):
No, that's Rich Davis.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
I'm Cavino, So I wanted we all have that experience though,
where someone says something on TV and you want to
reach through and punch him in the nose. That's what
happened to me. Chris Carter talked about Skip Bayless and
why he wanted to punch him in the nose.

Speaker 2 (56:56):
Take a list to him.

Speaker 3 (56:57):
I'll never be on your show again, and if you
ever say anything like that to me again, I'll punch
you right in the face. Well, what happened when you
were fighting? He was fighting over sim Tebow.

Speaker 1 (57:10):
Chris Carter said he'll never win because he has no arm,
and Skip Bayles said something along the lines off, well,
that's why you never won.

Speaker 3 (57:16):
A super ball, totally like out of left field, like
ruthe undeserved.

Speaker 2 (57:21):
He went low, low shot, low shot.

Speaker 1 (57:23):
So Chris Carter was like, I'll punch you in the face,
cheap shot, and that went viral this week. And of
course Malik Neighbors he got fined for fighting meek Neighbors
of the Giants.

Speaker 2 (57:33):
We want to hear your story. Who do you want
to punch in the nose.

Speaker 1 (57:36):
You're gonna have to hit us up at Covino and
Rich on social media so I know Rich wants to
punch spot in the nose. Well, that's like I mean,
I'm not talking about the automatic every day once. Like
you ever see like a smug umpire, Yeah, you like
an Angel Hernandez type when he makes a terrible call
and then he and he's so smug about it, like.

Speaker 2 (57:56):
Or like Manny Machado's face.

Speaker 3 (57:58):
Oh, he had deserves a punch in the middle, Nick Sirianni,
we're all playing out for over promised, So maybe we
do talk about this tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (58:07):
Okay, cool, we'll.

Speaker 1 (58:08):
Punch it in the face, but over promise streaming next
on the Fox Sports Radio YouTube page. Until then, I'll
reveen there to you, baby, see you in the over
promised land, I'll punch you in the math.
