Speaker 1 (01:01):
We'll tell you all about it.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
But first let's be rocking out into the holiday weekend,
so we'll be in Atlanta with the brightest baseball athletes

I'm hoping Ken Graffy Jr. Jenny Finch, some of the
names we're seeing that are going to be there. I'd
like to do a little hang and see what's going
on there. And by the way, for over forty years,
got to always give props to our friends at tire
Rack helping customers find those right tires or how, what
and where they drive, Convenient installation options, free road has

(01:45):
a protection and all that again at tirack dot com.
The way tied buying should be. In a few minutes,
we're getting it to Mike's words the wisdom. But I
want to just throw too quick, one dumb question at
you and throw a stat at you as echol. Sure, okay,
can I just wrap up my final story though, briefly,
this isn't a name drop because we're talking about the

(02:06):
catalyst for your weight loss journey. You could be your
friends just making fun of you, and you took it
personally like enough's enough. Someone calls you a beefy, someone
calls you a big guy? What do you mean by
you know, interestingly enough? Sometimes you could change the way
you look, or go on a fitness mission, or maybe

(02:27):
change your style based on how you hear someone describe you.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
I once had someone.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
I just we have a friend at an old job
that sort of changed your look because they were described as,
you know, like the balding guy who has bad style.

Speaker 1 (02:43):
And he's like balding guy with bad style.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Yeah, it makes the change, right. That's our very first
live broadcast believe it or not. True story was at
Henry Winkler's house. Yeah, and it's sort of a famous
story because there's a picture from that day and it
was mid bite. I was eating a bagel. Henry Winkler's like, guys,
welcome to my house. Here's a here's a plate of bagels.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
And I'm mid.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Bite during this picture and I turn around and I
look like a like an extra on the sopranos in
this photo. That was it And I'm serious, I look like, uh,
Steve Pastor.

Speaker 1 (03:20):
And you had an Android phone at the time, and.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Had I looked like such a slob in his photo.
And it haunted me though, And like our listeners saw
this photo because it was our broadcast at Henry Winkler's house,
and they're like, dude, what happened to Caveno?

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Did Coveno eat Coveno? And it haunted me so hard.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
I was like, I better lose some weight, man, because
this is getting bad because a lot of times you're
the last to know and your friends are trying to
figure out a way to tell you, but you just
don't know.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
So hey, whatever it is, make the best of it.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
And for Deebo Samuel, it's terall Owens calling him fat.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
He did call him fat.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
He did.

Speaker 1 (03:56):
I reread the quote?

Speaker 3 (03:57):
He did?

Speaker 1 (03:59):
He said then he would have to say lay off
the gabba, ghoul.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
But a lot of times it's a picture, man, I'm like, wow,
that what I look like. Could I read the quote
one last time because it just it really is like,
oh man, that's his boy, tarall Owens said Commander's Deebo
Samuel is fat, he ain't big boned. He's about two
chicken nuggets from tipping the scale. Deebo's my guy, though.

(04:22):
I love Debo, so I'll be honest if Debo has
any pride, and I do. And I did the ribbing
I got from our listeners and Rich and everybody from
that picture really.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
Did motivate me. I'm like, yo, man, I'm better than that.
All that, you know.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
And I used that as a challenge didn't hurt my feelings.
It just forced me to step up. So hey, guys,
summer's here, Get on it and stay motivated.

Speaker 1 (04:45):
Now here's what I want to do.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
I have an interesting stat about sports viewership and a
hypothetical for you guys.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
But here's what we'll do.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
Let's play Mike's words of wisdom, and while we're getting contestants,
I'll zip through my story. So every Wednesday, Big Mike,
who runs this place, who Mike drops some words of wisdom.
You know, he's a guy that's lived, He's a guy
that's been there, done that. He's a guy that played
scrabble with Gary Coleman once. He's a guy that was

(05:15):
on Supermarket Sweet.

Speaker 1 (05:16):
Scrabbles code for threesome. By the way, I always thought
that too. I don't know that this story is a
little straight. You got c blocked by Coleman, is what happened?

Speaker 3 (05:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (05:28):
I mean, or it could be weirder. We don't know.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
But hey, Mike drops words of wisdom. You have to
recite it word for word. If you do, you win
a coven on Rich Fox Sports Radio, Swiggy, let's hear
Big Mike's words of wisdom.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
It's time for the guy that runs this place.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.

Speaker 1 (05:57):
It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a win stay.

Speaker 3 (06:05):
Don't wait until your deathbed to tell people how you feel.
Tell them does suck it right now?

Speaker 1 (06:16):
Oh? I like that, honesty. I think words of wisdom.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
You've been playing that again with the chimes a little lower.

Speaker 1 (06:22):
I mean, I'm feel like.

Speaker 5 (06:23):
We came in a little a little quieter today. He
whispered the first part of it, extra extra chance. Could
you actually play it with fire alarms?

Speaker 3 (06:31):
Ring run?

Speaker 1 (06:36):
That's a good twist. dB. All right, let's try this
round to you. Yeah, ritchmi quiet, don't wait until your
deathbed to tell people.

Speaker 3 (06:50):
How you feel. Tell them does suck it right now?

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Oh wow, big Mike who runs his place?

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Hey, resect that word for word eight seven seven nine
nine on Fox verbatim, though verbatim, and you win, give.

Speaker 6 (07:03):
You rich swing one of the last swiggies, and if
you put the same inflection on it will also throw
in a koozie.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yeah not perfect?

Speaker 2 (07:08):
All right, all right now my deep thought and a
stat I saw about sports viewership. Deep thought, I'm at
a restaurant last night with my wife. We had a
little date night. Grandma's in town watching the kids. So
my wife and I actually get on Piepa in town,
Papa stop So Grandma and Grandpa in town. So my

(07:28):
wife and I actually got to go on a date night, me,
me and poo pooh. We went to a nice all
you could eat sushi spot right reasonably priced. The food
was great, everything about the experience top notch.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
But it was lit like a food court.

Speaker 2 (07:45):
I have no other way to describe this place, like
the entrees, the sushi, the food, the quality, the decor,
the signage. Everything in this place was sleek, but It's like,
I just wanted to tell them turn the lights down,
and I got to ask Danny, it's a restaurant that's
only been open three months.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Can you tell a restaurant something like that. I can't.

Speaker 7 (08:06):
Yeah, yeah, you tell the manager your opinion on that,
because you That's one reason to this day, my wife,
you will not go into a Walmart. Besides, she thinks
she's too good for it. She's like, I'm going to Target,
and I'm like, all right, you're too good for Walmart.
But she hates the fluorescent lighting inside hospital.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah, She's just like, my skin looks green when I'm
walking around Walmart. So it really is the worst.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
The reality is, like I'm telling you, this restaurant was sleek, nice,
everything was perfect, great date night. I see couples everywhere,
beautiful spot. But I think everyone had to feel the
same way. I'm like, why why are we is someone
getting operated on? Like why bright lights? And the whole
time I'm thinking it's a newer place. Is it out
of turn for a customer to say, hey, love the

(08:49):
full customer, I love the experience, but just hey, you know,
you're a member of the community, and as a member
of the community. You want to see these businesses seed
small business, small business. You want to be able to
go there again, enjoy your time there. If you do
it in a constructive way, I think you have every
right to not be a Karen or a Darren, but

(09:12):
to be a frequent customer and tell them your opinion
is probably helpful and they might be like, grateful that
you did.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Hey services, great food is great.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
Yes, that's the easy thing. They can adjust the lights.
What a great experience my wife and I had. But
I know you guys are a new restaurant, you think
about turn the lights down a little bit because it's
a great dates spot. I don't think it's a question
like debatable. I think you have every right to say
something like that. It's like the temperature. If you're cold
to you're not going to tell the guy like, great times,
why is it so cold in here?

Speaker 1 (09:42):
You want to have a nice experience.

Speaker 2 (09:44):
So I think you lead with the anytime criticisms involved, right,
you lead with the compliment. But it's also coming from
a place of you just want to see this place
succeed because it's your neighborhood, it's your community, And I
don't know, I feel that sense of pride and and
a new place opens.

Speaker 1 (10:01):
I want it to do well.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
So I think if you really want to help them,
I think I think it's the right thing to do,
not even like a question. It's nice of you to
do it. I just didn't want to. I didn't want
to be an overstepper. But I think we've all been there, right,
Like you could go to a sports bar, you could.
I've been to sports bars where I'm like, hey, listen,
I love You've got a great bar menu. You got

(10:24):
all the games on, but like instead of the main
games volume, you got some lame DJ playing, like play
the game or something. If the DJ's too loud, aren't
you going to say something? I just don't have to
be You don't have to be mean about it. Like
I said, this is constructive criticism. I remember going to
a bar in Hoboken where you might think this sounds

(10:46):
like a good idea. But every Sunday they'd play the
most popular game on the speakers, but during the commercials,
and you would say, of course, during the commercials, do
something else. But this DJ would play the loud like
a minute, and then when the game turned back on,
there with to put the volume on. I'm like unnecessary.
So these little things you think it's okay to say,
do I absolutely do? Yeah, because again there's a place

(11:09):
you want to go back to, you want to feel
good about it.

Speaker 5 (11:12):
The food is good. Food is that's the most important thing.
The lights can be adjusted ease.

Speaker 2 (11:15):
Yeah, yeah, I mean listen, even a chain rush on
Danny g our biggest complaint when we'd go across the
street Buffalo Wild Wings, they would have some of the
weaker games on the bigger TVs because the person didn't
know right like we'd be going there to watch Thursday
night football. They had a question for John Tappan. Yeah,
but it's like sometimes Dad, Bye, you've been there right where?

(11:37):
Oh yeah, You're like, why do you got like a
Division III college game on when we're trying to hear
it to watch Monday night football?

Speaker 7 (11:42):
And dB, the last time you were there with us,
remember it was like them trying to find a manager.
They couldn't find the remote. It took fifteen minutes to
get one TV change.

Speaker 4 (11:51):
It annoys me so much and in fact, this past weekend,
it's funny that you say this because you had the
Joey Chestnut interview from earlier in the show. Yeah, I
had a restaurant with my wife and son eating lunch
on Saturday with an old hot dog eating contest on
one of the TVs.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Who wants to watch that while they're eating? Yummy?

Speaker 4 (12:10):
But it was left it was like it was on
ESPN News on a Saturday.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
That's a great point. Yeah, You're like, how is nobody
else seeing this?

Speaker 4 (12:16):
There's got to be at least a baseball game going
on at this point.

Speaker 7 (12:20):
It was weird though, because you ordered the mini hot dog. Yeah, appetizer.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Why'd you get pigs in a blank? I ordered seventy
four hot dogs? That was weird.

Speaker 3 (12:28):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
So yeah, thank you guys.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
You made me feel better. Now let's get our winner.
Let's try to get a winner.

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Yeah, we have five contestants lined up. Mike's words of wisdom.
Where do you want to start? Kevin?

Speaker 7 (12:41):
Yeah, give us that music. I was saying, We're going
to start in Orlando. Kevin is first up to bat.
Hey Kevy, keV, what's up?

Speaker 1 (12:52):
Yeah? Hello Kevin? All right, Kevin? You think you got this?

Speaker 5 (12:56):
I think I got it.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
I love the chime. All right, let's hear it. Don't
wait until your deathbed to tell people what you think instead.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
Tell them, sorry, buddy, try again next week.

Speaker 1 (13:12):

It's fourth of July week. So when you talk to it, Terry,
what do you gotta say? Back it up, Terry, back
it up, Back it up, Terry.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
What's up, Bud?

Speaker 6 (13:24):
Not a lot?

Speaker 1 (13:25):
All right, Terry? I think I got it though. All right? Cool?

Speaker 7 (13:26):
Wait, wait for your music. That's going to make you
sound very smart. Let it simmer, all right.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
Don't wait until your deathbed to tell people how you feel.

Speaker 7 (13:37):
Tell them to suck it right now.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
That's a winner. That's a winner. There you go, Back
it up.

Speaker 7 (13:46):
Terry, back it up, Ry, congrats, hang on the line,
going to get your info in mail. A shiny sea
in our swiggy, one of the last ones to Wyoming.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
There you go, Bud, Thank you? All right, man throwing
some coozies for the summertime. Sit back in on wine.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
We only have a few left working on some new
prizes for football season, so stick around. More prizes, more
games coming soon here on the Covino and Rich Show.
And we still got midweek major coming up, No Doubt
and a story about Aaron Judge We're going to get
to you before the end of the show. But I said,
I had this stat about sports viewership, and I think
this is in the category of h yeah, no s

(14:25):
like you know, yeah, of course, but see how many
people tuned into the Squid Game sixty point one million worldwide? Well,
you know, breaking Netflix records. By the way, season three.
Keep that number in perspective because you know, we talk
about sports here in the US and globally. I ask you,

(14:45):
if you were to think top top, I'm gonna go eight,
top eight.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
I'd like it. See your MySpace top eight like the
two thousands. Oh, I'm putting Tila Tequila in mine.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Ooh ooh. What do you think the most viewed quote
championship games? There were like the game six that clinched it,
or the game five or the game seven, like the
the final game in a sport, or the championship game.
Where where would you say top top eight answers on
the board. That's tough because the way globally people watch

(15:20):
sports is so different. Now, yeah, the start, what you
think the top answers are?

Speaker 1 (15:28):
World Cup?

Speaker 2 (15:29):
World Cup number one, the last World Cup, five hundred
and seventy one million people maybe like Muhammad Ali fight
thriller another that this this year, like oh, this past year,
like yeah, in sports like this, this is what I'm talking,
like in the past calendar year or the last time
there was an Olympics or World Cup.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
Or something the Olympic Games. Olympics are not on this.

Speaker 8 (15:49):
No.

Speaker 7 (15:49):
Wow, I've seen a stat before about how much of
the world tunes into Tour de France.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
Nope, No, well, I mean super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
This list could be I I think it's it was
from Front Office Sports, which I trust. Super Bowls number three.
One hundred and twenty seven million people watched the last
Super Bowl. So World Cup number one, super Bowl number three.
There's something in between. Cricket Tyson, Jake Paul, not Tyson
Jake Paul cricket, Champion League soccer, Oh, one hundred and

(16:18):
fifty million people, So soccer football was number one to two,
number one obviously number three NFL Super Bowl. Now the rest,
I'll give you the hint that it's it's United.

Speaker 1 (16:28):
States, Okay, wimbled in. No, No, what do you think
number four would be? Oh? Yankees Dodgers?

Speaker 2 (16:38):
That, my friends, is number five, the game five of
the World Series eighteen point six million, so Yan baseball
number five, college football college football, College Football Championship number
four at twenty two million. Now you got six seven
and eight the last three, six seven and eight. I'll

(16:58):
give you six seven eight nine. How about that make
it easy? Well, we're all shining away from Game seven
NBA right like, because we would know.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
That's number six? Is it okay? And it's peak sixteen
and a half million? So all right?

Speaker 2 (17:10):
I mean it was a game seven, but we dumped
on how little people cared for a game set?

Speaker 4 (17:15):
What about Kentucky Derby.

Speaker 1 (17:18):
Oh that's a good one.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
No, but something up yours steampipe Aalley twelve point seven mil.
And then NC Final four whenever was the Master's The
Master is number seven.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
And by the way, you know, it's so funny.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
I'm wondering if this is championship because I did not
let me look at NC double A basketball this because
I saw the NHL Stanley Cup two point eight and
then the w NBA had one point six mil.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
I'm going to check this stet.

Speaker 7 (17:46):
Oh yeah, final four is more than that. Final four
is probably fifteen million.

Speaker 2 (17:51):
Final four in this Maybe there was a caveat there,
but it's just interesting. My biggest takeaway was that we
very much love the NFL and it is king here.
It is the NFL dominates, but it's like the iPhone
number one and two. Yeah, like you said, it's like
the iPhone around the world.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
It's football. Soccer's the ends the Android.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
It's wild because the World Cup and Champion League finals
like over the sea.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
What's interesting too, if I think we all probably would
have thought Olympics, but now that it's turned into so
much of a TV show instead of an actual competition. Yeah,
you know where like things are packaged, stuff is on
tape delay.

Speaker 1 (18:27):
It's deends on where it is, and if you're not
watching it live, most people don't watch every yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 7 (18:33):
And there's weird dancers with painted faces and then the
cut there in color guard.

Speaker 6 (18:37):
And because the coverage is so spread out too, it's
like it's like an opening ceremony.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Maybe I could take but I don't know how you
can pin down any event. Right.

Speaker 2 (18:45):
I'm gonna try to find this list against the double
check it. But I just found that on the fly,
so don't don't blame me, but I did find it interesting.

Speaker 1 (18:51):
Now blame rich at Rich Davis of all the things.

Speaker 2 (18:53):
I mean, they were obvious college you know, college football championship,
the NBA finals, and you know Baseball I knew would
be which they were.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
Baseball edged out the NBA a little bit.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
And then if I hate it because we're all our
hockey loving you know, East Coast and northern friends, hockey
still struggles with two million people.

Speaker 1 (19:12):
Watch it in Florida now and back to back.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
So all right, hey, we got more Covine on rich Spot.
I hope you got the biggest stories in the world
lined up.

We always thought though, that Q tip had the best
opening to the first verse because he just he just talks.

Speaker 1 (21:24):

Oh?

Speaker 2 (21:35):
That was uh Shepherd Smith, not sure what happened there?

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Won't happened again.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
I did that list of the most watched sporting events,
and I found another list, and you were right, Danny
g the Tour de France and the Olympics were on
a different list.

Speaker 1 (21:50):
What do I win?

Speaker 2 (21:51):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (21:51):
What the hell I was looking at?

Speaker 2 (21:52):
You know, it's so weird now you see these verified
sports accounts will post things, and Danny, you and I
were saying, how you have to like quadruple check things now.

Speaker 7 (22:01):
Yeah, the research for Last One Standing takes a good
hour to double check all the stats and graphs and
things I see, because I want to make sure that
whoever gathered the info didn't miss anything Well.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
By the way, while I apologize for that, I'm gonna
send you to at Rich Davis. I'll put it on
at Covin on Rich as well. Really fun thing you
could do with your kids. There was a trend I
saw where a kid lays in his driveway run safe.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah, fun for the kids. Kid lays in his.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
Driveway in the poses of all the sports logos and
his mom or dad hoses around him and it makes
the he did Air Jordan, he did the MLB logo,
he did the at the basketball logo.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
It's actually really cool. So it sounds like a fun
story from MIDWEK Major? Did you have that way to go? Rich?

Speaker 3 (22:48):
Well?

Speaker 1 (22:48):
If you did, why doze?

Speaker 2 (22:49):
If they apologize again, Cross Sorry, I'm not sure what
happened there won't happen again.

You know what it is time for MIDWEK Major. Let's
go Covino and Rich you over the middle of the
week when mid week Major Major.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
Oh, I love that.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at
the fellas and it's like the kids.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Say, that's summit.

Speaker 6 (23:12):
We definitely lead here.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
See it our scoring mid week major.

Speaker 7 (23:19):
We can give Spotty at least eight and a half
minutes right now, all right, before we hand things over
to the number one and only host of this segment.
As you hear the horns, that means you've made it
more than halfway through this holiday week. All right, we
roll the two big red love dice over there in
the main studio.

Speaker 1 (23:34):
I just rolled the ten.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Let's go by the way, you made it halfway through
the year as of today, No, okay, well damn yes,
and halfway to twenty fifty from to the year two thousand.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Holy crap. All right, let's see we.

Speaker 3 (23:46):
Got the boughs? What what.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
I got? A hard six? All right? Whoa That means
Covino gets first take.

Speaker 7 (23:54):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides
Judy Bloom from Scotch Points New Jersey spotty boy.

Speaker 6 (24:02):
Hey, so you guys hear about the kid that lays
in his driveway?

Speaker 1 (24:05):
All right?

Speaker 6 (24:08):
The spital of the speculation for this weekend celebrity celebrity
filled Jeff Bezos wedding. There is no budding romance between
the goat Tom Brady and the bouncing beauty Sidney Sweety.
Source close to Sweeney says that the actress is very
much single, despite being spotted with not only Brady but
also recently single actor Orlando Bloom, Sweeney is quote currently

(24:31):
focused on her career and enjoying life and romance is
not a priority, especially since her split with her fiance
Jonathan Divino back in January. So it looks like Tommy
will have to buy the soap just like the rest
of us.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
Midwek're major it's a mid story because Tommy should have
cashed in just for the fun of it. But as
much as Sidney Sweeney is a bombshell, and she's very
sexy and lovely and talented, and I'm excited to see
her as Christy Martin the Boxer in her next movie,
don't a Click You the prize, Sidney Sweeney TB twelve Touchdown,

(25:04):
Tommy's the prize here, I agree.

Speaker 1 (25:06):
Okay, And you know what I think.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
I don't think she's saying that she's but it does
come across that way a little bit. I mean, I
think it's uh like, if I were her, I wouldn't
dispel those rumors.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Those are great movie, that's Tom Brady.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
I think the fact that flirting up with Tom Brady
makes her look cooler d But you.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
Know what's fun.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
I think your story is I'm not saying your story
is mid, but it's mid because I think I think
the bigger question and I'm curious what you guys think,
not that I'm taking over midwek Major.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
When you see the list of people there.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Tell me all those people know Bezos or is he
just a rich guy that invited the popular kids and
they all showed up there?

Speaker 3 (25:42):
It is?

Speaker 1 (25:43):
Do you think he knows every one of those people?

Speaker 2 (25:45):
You think Jeff Bezos is hanging out with Tom Brady
and then Lady Gaga and Elton John those.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
Are his friends. That's a big look at me.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
No, it seems like do you remember, like the rich
kind in high school had a party and like the
popular kids just showed up.

Speaker 6 (25:59):
I think that's go ahead, Jeff, great to see you.
That must be Nigel with Debrie good one? All right, Hey,
can I go? You're good?

Speaker 3 (26:09):
All right?

Speaker 6 (26:09):
Well, you may not be living like Tom Brady dancing
with Sydney Sweeney. If you ever wanted to live like
the other goat, now's your chance. So Michael Jordan's former
mansion has now been listed on Airbnb with your chance
to quote live like a legend. So Jordan's Highland Park,
Illinois home in the suburbs of Chicago was sold in
December for nine point five million, and the new owner
apparently trying to make some of that money back. So

(26:31):
The home has seven bedrooms, seventeen point five baths and
can fit up to twelve guests. However, it currently has
a seven night minimum on Airbnb, which will cost you
at least six figures. So for sample, a week in
August is going for roughly fifteen thousand dollars a night.
With the seven night minimum that puts it to one
hundred and five k, and if you want to stay
for Labor Day weekend, it goes up as high as

(26:52):
one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. The owner says that
he has other plans for the seven plus acre estate,
but in the meantime trying to recoup some fun.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
It's midweaker major mid. I think it's cool, don't get
it twisted. I also think they should do more of
a play on words like air Jordan b and b
air b and b ah.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
It's good on You should go to marketing.

Speaker 2 (27:12):
Right air in quotes, but it only applies to anyone
just interested in real estate or people who have fifteen
thousand a night to spare.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Get me break exactly.

Speaker 2 (27:24):
So, yeah, it's cool to see what his house looks
like and all that, but who does this really apply to?

Speaker 1 (27:29):
A bunch of rich a holes?

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Yeah, it's like when some rich perbson sells their house
for thirty million, Like who buys it? Like the small
little window of people that could you know, like another.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Celebrity I spent at fifteen thousand a night.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
But there's a sort about a kid who makes a
silhouette look Michael Jordan so Covino.

Speaker 6 (27:44):
Since your first I saw on social this week that
you posted you got some new quote bad boys.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
You got some hats sweet Yankee hats. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (27:51):
Well, Lebron James rocking a new bad boy that's apparently
sparking some controversy. He's already locked in for the Lakers,
but for the next season twenty five to twenty six season,
but his future be on that still up in the air.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
Well.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
Lebron posted on social.

Speaker 6 (28:03):
Media while golfing in the Cleveland area a photo of
himself wearing a hat that said quote welcome Home, leading
to speculation that he may be looking to wrap up
his career back in Cleveland with the Calves. Of course,
it could mean absolutely nothing, which is probably the case.
But the Calves have been in championship contenders. They were
leading the Eastern Conference with sixty four wins last season.

(28:24):
So if he's looking to end in a championship, this
may be his pathway Midweek or major.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
I think that's major.

Speaker 2 (28:29):
In don't think that guys like Lebron are above little
hints and dropping hints like that to get people to
speculate and to get la to sort of panic. They
also want to keep him, I would imagine just for
that farewell tour. But I think it's a strong possibility
that he ends up there. But Cleveland have fun times

(28:50):
in Cleveland again, Cleve man or, as Sophie Cunningham said,
who wants to go visit Cleveland anyway? Yeah, I guess Lebron, right,
So I think think Lebron James does. He knows has
to be you know, it's calculated enough because he knows
everyone's gonna look at it. We've joked about if Lebron
went on Twitter and just said one word like paid

(29:11):
Boji potatoes, people be like potatoes?

Speaker 1 (29:13):
What does that mean? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
But This is very Blake Welcome home. Yeah, definitely dropping hints.
I think I think it's major because anything Lebron does
as major. He's one of the last superstars of the
NBA because the younger guys aren't carrying that torch quite yet.
So I think the speculation as to where he ends
up is big.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
But it's all part of the game.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Like Kavino said, free agents, not even free agents, people
that will eventually have options, love to do these little
social media games.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
It's good for the fans and it gives them leverage
on their team, all right.

Speaker 6 (29:43):
This past Monday, Netflix dropped the first trailer for the
upcoming docu series, which will highlight the Dallas Cowboys heyday
and of course, owner Jerry Jones, so America's team. The
Gambler and His Cowboys is slated to be a look
back on the Dallas Cowboys era of dominance, focusing on
Jerry owns, risking everything for a chance at transforming and
leading the franchise to three titles in the nineties. The

(30:05):
series will feature interviews with Jerry Jones himself, other legends
like Troy Aikman, Michael Irvan, Emt Smith, Dean Sanders, Jimmy Johnson,
and even former President Bush. The docu series will be
broken up into eight episodes eight total episodes, and will
premiere August nineteenth on Netflix, just in time for the
NFL season Midweek or Major Major, because this the last
time they were good, and who doesn't like a well

(30:27):
done documentary. We could relive the heyday and remember why
they were America's team, why they still have this reputation,
because not because of anything they've done recently, it's because
of them.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I mean watching that, I mean, we loved Last Dance.
I loved Men in the Arena, Tom Brady. These big
documentaries are fantastic, So I think Major for that Major Week.
If you're a Cowboys fan, you know what I mean.
It's like a facer. I'll look at a picture when
she used to be hot, Like if you're Cowboys.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
The photos you put around your place of your wife, my.

Speaker 2 (30:58):
Wife, my wife is true him. I think that it's
trying to motivate us, right. I think I think it's
sad for Cowboys fans. Sorry for my Deebo Samuel analogy,
but I'm sad for you to watch highlights from eighty six. No,
at it's not even a knock. It's just their question.

Speaker 1 (31:15):
It's a little blow, you know, It's not what does
it like to relive the Heyday?

Speaker 2 (31:19):
I know I agree, but I'm just saying it's a
It's just a reminder that you're the Cowboys, You're the last,
you have the longest stint not making it to the
NFC Championship Game.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
You're a disappointment year of the year. Let me remind
you with your Heyday.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
I don't know what's the all saying it's better to
have loved than lost.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Yeah, I mean we want to have never know what
I'm trying to say. You can't take away and stuff
like that. Yeah, all right, do we have time? We're good?
All right?

Speaker 6 (31:49):
Well, we all know bobbleheads would become a hot ticket item,
people waiting in line for hours, like the show Hey,
Tani one that just came out recently.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
We'll move over show Hey because George Costanza is coming
to town.

Speaker 6 (31:58):
As you know, the Iconics Seinfeld character worked for the
Yankees organization.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
Isn't that your favorite Christmas song? I love it?

Speaker 6 (32:04):
And hell his twenty first the Yanks will be releasing
a limited edition George Costanza sleeping under his desk bobblehead,
remember that, Remember that episode? He was like fos taking
that to the first eighteen thousand fans. They're excited. Pre
sales for the bobblehead on eBay are already going for
as high as two hundred and fifty dollars, which surpasses

(32:24):
astronomically the tickets to the actual game, like tickets on
resale sites are only going for fifty bucks, especially considering
how the Yanks have been doing recently. In contrast, the
recent Aaron Judge Superman bobblehead, which Gave came out on
the twentieth only went for about one hundred bucks on eBay,
So George Costanza really pull it in the money for
the Yanks. Good weeker major Well, I think the public
has spoken and it's major. Well for me personally is

(32:47):
mid because I'm not a big bobblehead guy, and I
personally thought the Billy Joel bobblehead was cooler. Have you
seen it is the Billy Joel Yankee bobblehead.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
He's sitting there in front of the piano and it's cool.
He's battling some health issues and he's a very New
York guy, very cool, but yeah. I mean, people are
freaking out about it.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
What can I say.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
I think it's made, you know, I think it's gonna
lead to I think it's gonna lead to a night
where they give away cotton Yankee jerseys.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Oh, that's great. That would be fantastic, tight, extra tight.
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
That's great. A mid week major. Let's go to our buddy,
Dan Buyer. See what's going on in the world of sports.

Speaker 1 (33:20):
TV, guys, some news from the NBA.

Speaker 4 (33:23):
It's been a busy past few days, and the news
keeps on trickling in. As DeAndre Ayton is officially a
free agent, but not a free agent for long. Multiple
reports say he's going to get a two year deal
to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers. Mike Brown's the
new head coach of the New York Knicks. He was
the only candidate that New York interviewed for a second time.
This is now his fourth stop in the NBA, or
fourth different team, I should say, coach the Cavs and

(33:46):
two stints also coach the Lakers and Sacramento Kings. Speaking
of the Lakers, the Athletics says that LA, the Warriors,
and Celtics are amongst the teams interested in Damian Lillard
reaching out to the free agent guard Jaron Jackson to
be reevaluated in twelve weeks after the Memphis All Star
had turf toe surgery. In baseball, the Padres and Phillies
are underway and scoreless in the third inning in game

(34:07):
two of their double header. Earlier today, Padres took Game
one six to four, raised down the A's by a
score of six to five, while the Red Sox finished
their completed game against the Reds from yesterday five to three.
They'll play again tonight at Fenway. Pirates blank the Cardinals,
winning five to nothing. Pittsburgh sweeps that three game series.
It's game one of a doubleheader completed as the Tigers

(34:28):
topped the Nationals eleven to two. Riley Green ended up
homering twice for Detroit. Sorry rich Brewers and Mets playing
game one of a double header.

Speaker 8 (34:37):
Every one and a fly ball down the left field
line back at a track night is gone. Joey Ortiz
big fly for a grand Slam in New York.

Speaker 4 (34:50):
Brewers Radio Network. They went on to beat the Mets
by a score of seven to two. And at Wimbledon,
there's only one top seed of the top five left
in the lady singles at Crappy Arena. Sabalankas she's on
the third round. Taylor Fritz the American one on the
men's side, as did Carlos Elcarez, Francis Tiaffo lost today.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
Guys, back to you, what do you.

Speaker 2 (35:08):

almost wrapping up the show and I didn't even wish
you a Happy Curshaw Day.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
Man, Oh right, happy.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
Curse Special Curshaw Day. Today it is. And here's why special.
I saw a clip the other day with a Rod.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Right.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
A Rod said something along the lines about he's asked
this question all the time. Someone asked him on TikTok. Hey, dude,
no one reached out to you to play for another
team after the Yankees so that you could hit seven
hundred home runs? How does that sit with you hitting
six ninety six. I've thought about this honestly, way too long.

(38:07):
And he says he answers it all the time, and
I've never heard him really address it. And he said,
I looked at it this way. Six ninety six with
the Yankees meant way more to me than seven hundred
with another team. So six ninety six it is. I
would have played with the White Sox fore two months.

(38:30):
He said he got three or four people teams reached
out to him just for that opportunity, and he was like, nah,
I meant more, Which is why you really got to
put it in perspective that Kershaw is getting three thousand
strikeouts hopefully today with the one team that means the
most to him, in front of the fans that mean
the most to him. So I think that's so cool

(38:51):
that on Kershaw Day he gets to do it with
the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
Man stage is set. The stage is set, strikeouts away, three.

Speaker 2 (38:58):
Strikeouts away from three thousand, which is a milestone that
I mean, if a Paul Skeens hits one day, we're lucky.
We're not going to see that many pictures achieve this.

Speaker 1 (39:07):
Ever.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Again, by the way, the Dodgers rightfully so huge favorites
minus three thirty five they're playing the White Sox Dodgers Stadium,
one of the worst teams in baseball, second worst team
versus the best team in baseball. Dude, eighteen years with
the Dodgers, thirty he's like the oldest thirty seven year
old because he's played so long. But it's so cool
when you really put that in perspective, because it's not

(39:29):
just the accolade, it's the team you do it for.
It's and fans you do it in front of. Also,
keep in mind and give him props. He's four and
oh with a three point zero three era. He's sort
of looking really good. He's crafty, Rich strikeouts.

Speaker 7 (39:42):
I know you love fun facts Rich being popped two
K boy. The Kershaw family has a tieder radio so
Kershaw's dad, back in the day was a musician and
jingle writer, and he worked for the big jingle shop
out of Dallas that makes all the radio jingles from
over the years. They're not used as much in broadcasting
like back in the day. That's cool, but when the

(40:04):
shout the jingle, shout Rich Davis, his dad helped make
all those, mister.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Kershaw, so that that that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
He's the guy that's like one on one play one.

Speaker 2 (40:16):
Yeah, Clinton, Kershaw on the hill tonight, three strikeouts away.
I'm not putting the as you called the Jamboozy that
the heck's on this. What if he has two strikeouts
and the next and the next scheduled start is on
the road, do you hold him?

Speaker 1 (40:34):
Don't you even put that out there?

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Man, Honestly, we all want to see it. Just like
Danny said, the stage is set perfectly. It's Kershaw Day,
And even if you're not a Dodger's hater, you got
to tip your hat to that, because I don't think
we're gonna see that many more times in our lifetime. Well, hey,
congrats and good luck to Kershaw. We'll see you guys tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (40:54):
Are with there? May see you in a promise then
