and Rich. I'm Steve Cavino. That is Rich Davis on site.
Hop along, Dicky, we're calling you. Huh at twenty gallon
had On. I'm in the land of fireworks that are legal.

(00:26):
I just drove past a fireworks stand this morning. I'm like,
what is going on?

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Nice?

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Buy some Husker duos and Husker donts, Husker donts mostly
oh nice? So yeah, Rich is in Texas for the
holiday week. I guess you're going to be away for
most of July the rest of us. The premier sports

So lots to get to it. Gonna be lots of fun.
But first and first, mostly, how is your weekend?

Speaker 3 (01:10):
Man? How are your travels?

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Oh dude, I drove with a four year old and
a seven year old from southern California to South Texas.
So I'm like exhausted, to be honest, but I'm in
a good mood because I'm here with you.

Speaker 3 (01:23):
Like it.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
It's a long time, man. There's only so many things
you could do on an iPad for a kid.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Hope everybody had a great weekend. Hope everybody has their
fingers intact. I was sort of confused, was this weekend
fourth of July weekend or it's next weekend? Right, because
I heard a lot of fireworks, a lot of celebrating
this weekend.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
I just think people were using it as an excuse
to get tipsy.

Speaker 3 (01:44):
Look at your coltan. It was June this past weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
How can you celebrate these I heard a lot of
celebrating that. Look even you you're away. But hope you
enjoyed your games, Hope all your team's won. And again
me just living dad life for the most part, was
my chauffeur for most of the weekend and trying to
enjoy my games in between trying to watch Aaron Judge. Really,
that's why I'm watching at this point. Because the Yankees

(02:08):
are so inconsistent, trying to watch Aaron Judge. Still making
time for Caitlin Clark. She got the big win, rich
so lots to get to. But drove my daughter to
six Flags, that whole routine, that whole thing, just driving
all the kids around with their half baked teenage plans.
Had a day at the pool, so I got a
nice little tan going on. I over eight, which is

(02:30):
what you're supposed to do on the weekend. So I'm
feeling puffy on this Monday morning from all the people
and all the fixins.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
How can I what?

Speaker 4 (02:39):
How could you say something like I only watch you
Yankees because of Aaron Judge. I mean they're tied with
the Baltimore Orioles for first place. I know race, so
you're on pay for on pace for one hundred wins,
Like it's just team is doing something.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
He is the guy though he's the guy.

Speaker 2 (02:58):
Well, obviously Soto's playing great too, But there's only three
dudes that are really pulling their weight on that team,
and that's Aaron Judge, Soto, Stanton's injured or else it
would be him maybe Vulpy because he's still playing well.
Everyone else man I don't know. They run around with
loading their pants, you know, like Gabor Torres. Sorry what

(03:18):
meaning like it looks like he's wearing a diaper. Oh yeah, okay,
Gabor Torres not running things out, they're playing lazy.

Speaker 3 (03:25):
So anyway, I hope you have to see that meme.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
I have seen that meme where it's uh, or the
little TikTok videos.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Where I'm doing my part. I'm doing my part. It's
it's like the group project. Well that's Aaron Judge.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
Aaron Judge is doing it all and everyone's like, oh no,
it's due tomorrow. He's carrying the team for the most part. Dude,
for the most part. And of course, Garrett Cole got
the win yesterday. He's back. But they've been so inconsistent.
Wasn't for Judge, they'd be in a lot of trouble
right now. But that being said, I bring up baseball.
I bring up the weekend because I hope you had

(03:58):
a good one and today is a special day rich
for you. That's why I'm uh, That's why I'm visiting
family in Texas, not the fourth of July.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Being a baseball fan, today is a day that.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Floods your social media timeline with lame o's on Facebook, especially,
Oh yeah, it's.

Speaker 3 (04:21):
It's the Facebook lame o rage every July first. Well,
you gotta, you gotta figure it this way.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
We're all on Facebook, but it's more of an older platform,
meaning I think that people on Facebook are later to
the trends and they hold on to corny er jokes.

Speaker 4 (04:42):
Oh, I've seen the meme that says, uh, I'm a
normal forty year old.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
I watch I watch TikTok trends a month later on
Instagram reels, right, I mean, and then your parents se
it two months later on Facebook.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
But it's July first. And because it's July first, and
I'm a Mets fan, my timeline already already.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
It's six o'clock. Copy you on the West coast. It's
only nine am on the East coast.

Speaker 4 (05:09):
And I'm already bombarded with happy Bobby Bania to day.
God give it up. I hate to hold Bobby Benia thing.
He's being paid by the Mets until twenty thirty five,
until he's seventy two years old.

Speaker 3 (05:24):
But people love it. I don't get it.

Speaker 4 (05:28):
It makes no sense to me why people love rubbing it.
It's taking in front of those things.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's the same guy that wants to have small talk
with you in the elevator about the weather. It's that
type of guy that loves to bring up Bobby Beni
a day.

Speaker 3 (05:40):
I would think you're that type of guy. Rich.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
I just know what annoys you as a Mets fan
out there, but I believe that you're that type of guy.
You know, that guy that just loves and leans into
the corny and on this date, Bobby Beanie a day.
He's paid forever and people love to laugh the Mets
about it because it's such a Mets thing. But here

(06:03):
on the Covino and Rich Show, and for Dan Patrick,
we're trying to tell you a few things. There's a
few examples of those, you know, things that people love
to say. And it's like, all right, man, we get it.
We know, we heard of it. It's not that funny,
but other people think it's funny. And the Mets are
not the only team. Bobby Beni is not the only guy. Well,

(06:24):
got to still give credit to him, though, I mean,
first of all, thanks for saying I'm the type of
guy that leans into corny stuff.

Speaker 5 (06:32):
What the hell are you talking about? I feel like
you are you meant research? No, like Rich loves on
this date. Like I hear Rich on pop two K
on serious ExM.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
I'm sorry, that's his top forty format radio guy personality.
Like we all think hawk to a girl is funny,
Rich is still talking about it and she still hop
it on stage for country stars. I beat it. No,
this is what I mean, and I say this respectfully.
If you're in the hallway. Rich is the type of

(07:02):
guy that that that points at you and he goes
hawk to a girl.

Speaker 3 (07:05):
Am I right? Hawk to it? Joel? Have you seen
by the way, let's say good morning to Joel. Hi, Joel, Joel?
Great to see? What great to see? Joel?

Speaker 2 (07:14):
You know here with Dan Patrick, we got Danny g
super produced and at eight seven seven ninety nine m
Fox spots on the videos if you want to play
long at home at Covino and Rich And again Rich
is in Texas, so it's really not a knock Rich.

Speaker 3 (07:28):
I'm just trying to build up that.

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Type of guy who, uh, I don't know, loves to
talk about his coffee in the morning, that sort of thing.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
No, because I hate that person. I hate the person
that says, don't talk to me. Until I have my coffee.
I hate that person. So you're describing someone I hate
and telling you telling me it's me.

Speaker 3 (07:45):
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know. But anyway,
Bobby Benite right, yeah, back.

Speaker 4 (07:48):
One point one point one nine million dollars until twenty
thirty five. So we have Hey, here's a good news. Comno,
we've been working together a long time. We have another
decade if you and I celebrating at least Bobby Benhette together.
So that's every July first. But let me let Red
Sox fans know that you're paying Rafael Devers seven point

(08:09):
five million dollars until twenty forty three. Let me tell
Reds fans that you're paying Griffy Junior three and a
half million dollars until this year.

Speaker 3 (08:18):
You're finally off the hook.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
And Baltimore Oriole remember when this guy was hot for
a second coven on that it's like what happened?

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Remember Chris Davis?

Speaker 4 (08:25):
Yeah, they're paying Chris Davis three and a half million
year until twenty thirty two, and then one point four
a year after that until twenty thirty seven. And Danny
g you shut your mouth too, because you're paying Otani
and Freddy Freeman until until you got diapers, you've got
great hairs.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
A lot of these guys still play with the team,
so it's not as bad as now. Ken Griffy's a
Hall of Famer. Bobby Bonia never really did much for
your Mets, to be honest.

Speaker 5 (08:52):
Rich, And the other joke is Bonio is also getting
paid by another team. I believe it's the Indians, well, Guardians.
Now I'll have to look that it. I know I've
seen that meme where he's getting paid by a second team.

Speaker 2 (09:03):
Also, still, your son co is gonna have grand kids
and you'll be paying Otani.

Speaker 5 (09:07):
But Rich, I feel like you would be more into
this if it if he if he wasn't getting paid
by your favorite team, you know.

Speaker 2 (09:14):
But he is right as as much as you know,
we're dumping on Rich a little bit. It's always easier
when he's not here to make up, make fun of
him and gang up.

Speaker 3 (09:21):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (09:23):
As much as we're doing that, He's not wrong in
that it never goes away. People love to bring it
up like it's one of those those memes that people
sit on and they're ready to precend the moment. The
day hits like the moment May hit. You knew you
were gonna see it, justin Timberlake meme. It's gotta be

(09:44):
May And it's the same thing with Bobby Benia day.
And I don't know why people love it because it's
not that great anymore because again, like we've seen it
so many times. But we're gonna add some things to
the list. We're gonna call out more teams and more players.

Speaker 3 (09:58):
Cove really quick. It's the Orioles.

Speaker 5 (10:00):
They also still pay Bonia five hundred thousand dollars a
year for twenty five years.

Speaker 2 (10:04):
You know what, That's insane. And for the record, you
know Benia had a long career sixteen years one of
the Killer Bees. We all remember that. But he got
it around. You had a Killer Bees poster in your room.
I shure the hell did not.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
And still wear your Barry Bonza dangling year in six years.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
With Pittsburgh, five with the Mets, two with Baltimore, two
with Florida, one in Atlanta, Saint Louis Dodgers, Chicago, Like
he bounced around a lot, so it's always there. It's
that day. It's sort of fun to laugh the Mets.
Rich is saying this is the stop making fun of
the Mets plea for Mitch Davis.

Speaker 4 (10:42):
No, it's the reminder, don't go for the low hanging joke.
And by the way, when you just listed the teams
that Bobby Benia was on, if we played a round
of cavinon Rich on the road again.

Speaker 3 (10:55):
Oh no, I wouldn't. I would never have got Bobby
Bennia correct.

Speaker 4 (10:58):
I would have said, obviously, Pirates, Mets, Orioles and Mayoe
have found another team.

Speaker 3 (11:04):
Can you name that again? Bobby Benia played for how
many teams? Man a lot? Again?

Speaker 2 (11:09):
He played fifteen years in the NL, three in the AL.
He played for Pittsburgh. We remember that for sure. The
Mets we all remember were celebrating it today. Of course,
Baltimore for two years. I remember that, still getting paid.
Florida for two years. I remember that too.

Speaker 3 (11:23):
Yeah, me too. Here's where I don't remember. He played.

Speaker 2 (11:28):
For Atlanta for a year, Saint Louis, the Dodgers, and
the White Sox all.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
For a year.

Speaker 4 (11:34):
No, I must have been in a coma. I I
don't remember any of after the Marlins in my.

Speaker 3 (11:39):
Mind he retired.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Yeah, that was ninety eight through two thousand and one.
And what's things about it too? A little more Like
you mentioned other examples, Raphael Devers tears it up for
the Red Sox Ken Tifrey Junior is a Hall of
Famer sho Heyo Tani last I checked one of the
greatest of all time. Okay, right, So there's the difference

(12:00):
is sort of like.

Speaker 4 (12:02):
It's only a step It's only a step above if
the Mets are paying mo vawn is what you're saying.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
Yeah, kind of.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
It's like, ah, such a Mets sort of thing, and
that's where the funny and fun comes from. True, But
I do agree, and that's what I was getting at
that people lean into it in a odd way where
it's all right, guy, it's not that funny. And we
have other examples of that type of guy in those
type of jokes. And you could add to the all right,
we heard this joke. If you repeat this joke, you

(12:30):
deserve a kick in the nards, You deserve a karate
chopping to sternam, you deserve a I don't know, flick
in the ear. Yeah, you deserve us a wet willie.
Like all right, we heard this joke, we get it.
But some people just love to lean into it and
our favorite example here on the Covino and Rich are
our favorite number one example of hey, happy Bobby BENI today?

Speaker 3 (12:52):
Am I right? You heard it's Bobby? You never heard? Yeah?
I heard John?

Speaker 1 (12:57):
I heard.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
The best one is is when some guy feels like
he's the inventor, the inventor of this joke. And our
classic example is when a guy goes, I don't know
if you ever heard this one, But for every hot girl,
there's some dude who's sick of getting with her?

Speaker 3 (13:19):
Am I right? And you're like, you think you invented that?

Speaker 2 (13:24):
I heard that eight million times since the late nineteen hundreds.

Speaker 4 (13:30):
There's there's always someone that has said that to you,
as if you're right that you've never heard, Like, I
don't know if you.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
Got hey, have you heard this one?

Speaker 4 (13:38):
For every hot girl, it's the same guy that says,
I'll give a couple others. What's the same guy that says,
hot dog down a hallway?

Speaker 3 (13:44):
Am I right?

Speaker 2 (13:46):
He's like going a hot dog down the hallway?

Speaker 3 (13:51):
And you're like, yeah, all right, Gary, I heard that one.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
But they look at you like, I bet you never
heard this one, and you're like, of course I have.
It's like it's like you're lame friends sending you a
viral video that you saw, as you know, ten years ago.

Speaker 3 (14:10):
You know that butt fumble. It's like, hey, man, you
ever see the butt fumble?

Speaker 5 (14:16):
Man?

Speaker 3 (14:17):
This is crazy.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
It's like, of course I have a million times, but
it's annoying because they feel like, well, because.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
It's new to them, you're an idiot, and it's like.

Speaker 4 (14:29):
You're the idiot, the same guy that brings up Bobby Benidde. Yeah,
you said, our favorite one is for every hot girl
there's a guy that's sick of banging her.

Speaker 3 (14:38):
Yeah, and you know I have.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
It's a bad one because it's it's a true and
funny sentiment. Right, it's a funny statement. But we've heard
it a million times. You're not breaking the glass on
that one.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
Yeah, you're right.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
The sentiment that Kamina describes as true. It's the person
that says this is usually the person that acts like.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
You may never have heard this. I'm gonna lay one
on you.

Speaker 2 (15:00):
Buckle up, man, I got one that's gonna change your life. Man,
you said his good dude? Can you believe that? Can
you believe that j Lo and Ben are gonna get divorced. Well, hey,
I don't know if you.

Speaker 3 (15:12):
Ever heard this. For every hot girl, I got.

Speaker 4 (15:17):
One better, I got even a better one. You think
that's the legal I thought down.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
The Hallway was a good one too, And we don't
need to explain. I think most people get it and
have heard that before. And this all ties into Bobby
Benia Day. It's like, yeah, we know, we get it
every year. You guys love it. You guys love it. It's
a weird, weird love for it.

Speaker 4 (15:38):
So you mentioned one before, which was people that love
to point out like don't talk to me un till
I had my coffee. We're sort to talk about those
phrases or sayings or things that people make.

Speaker 3 (15:48):
It seem like.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
It's not even just phrases and sayings rich, it's like
people that lean into Bobby Bonilla Day and love it
so much. Like that strange love for this is the
same guy who like loved bacon in a weird way
when that was a craze beer and bacon. It's like,
all right, dude, we all love beer and bacon.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
The person where there's an event, if there's an event,
then the person's like, who is there beer? There right right,
Bacon hankey, but bacon on my Sunday. Bacon, all right,
bacon guy. We all love bacon. We all think Bobby
Benia Day is funny. We all get it. But you
were just crazy about it, and you just texted it
to fifty different people.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
I got two more. I'm gonna I got this is.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
I love this conversation because we talked to so many people.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
By the way, picture that guy Rich when he's sending
out his mass text to everybody.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
Oh wait till they get a load? Wait?

Speaker 2 (16:43):
Did they get a load of this one? Happy Bobby
Boony you day. I don't know why I made him
Southern novs. Oh, because you're in Texas. That's why I'm
in Texas. Yeah, that's why hop along Dickey.

Speaker 3 (16:56):
Sorry, go ahead, you're messed.

Speaker 4 (16:58):
I got I got two morena give. I'm gonna give
you one now. And I was just about to talk
about how I'm feeling it this morning. I already just
forgot the other one I had in my head.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Oh, I got it, you ready, No, I got the one.
I got the best one of them. I got the
best one.

Speaker 4 (17:14):
The best one might be when someone says to you
as if you've never heard it as if they are
breaking the glass or giving you some great advice. When
it's in the form of a best man's speech, it's
even worse.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
I know it, you're taking mine. When someone stands up
and says the following phrase, well you.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Know, happy wife, happy life, and you give him, you
give him clappy, I mean, well, he's right. I guess
I mean, I guess he's right. I guess he's right.

Speaker 3 (17:46):
It's such a stupid saying because it's it's great.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
I love it, but god, we've heard that a million
times again, million times.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
Same thing with Bobby Benia.

Speaker 2 (17:56):
The guy that says that the best man speech is
the guy you know that loves Bobby ben women. You know,
I got that written down the hawk to a thing. Eventually,
it's gonna be that guy.

Speaker 3 (18:11):
You know.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
We've had buddies like this for real, Like we had
buddies that hung on to jokes way too long after
the fact after they were funny. Like we had a
buddy we kind of stopped being friends with him because
he was that annoying. He was saying winning. Remember when
the Charlie Sheen winning thing was a thing winning?

Speaker 3 (18:30):
You remember when.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
When Tiger's blood or whatever he was talking about was
a big thing. This dude was saying winning for like
the next three or four years. It's like, all right,
maybe he's one of those Bobby Bonia type of guys.
And I'm not saying that's the reason, but it's part
of the reason. So again, today is Bobby Benia Day.

(18:52):
We explained why it is different. But the Mets aren't
the only team, but it's a very Mets thing.

Speaker 4 (18:59):
You're right, Dever's Otani, Freddie Freeman.

Speaker 3 (19:05):
They're all franchise players. Yeah, and Griffy just got done
being paid.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
And Chris Davis might be the only equal one because
he was good for a second and the Orioles are
paying that guy until the twenty forties.

Speaker 3 (19:20):
Wow. Yeah, that's insane. That's insane. So it's the memes
that you've seen a million times.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
The jokes that people love to tell you, the expressions,
and Rich is just saying in the same breath, stop
making fun of his Mets.

Speaker 3 (19:36):
So it's so easy, it's fun. It's easy. You know what,
though they did have a fun weekend.

Speaker 2 (19:41):
Well, one of their players is a big time performer,
not only on the field but off the field. I
want to mention that too when we get back.

Speaker 4 (19:48):
But you know what, though, I have a thought on
that as well, and it's very mets. So we got
more covinon Rich and for the great Dan Patrick. Next

ninety nine on Fox Hop Along, Dickie is in Texas
and that is your boy. Jose Iglesias bro with the
new jam O MG, and you're like, Jose Iglesias, what
about Julio?

Speaker 3 (21:32):
What about Warmer?

Speaker 4 (21:34):
Former Detroit Tiger now New York met utility Infield. He
was going back and forth between Syracuse and the Mets,
and he's a recording artist and it's become the rally
cry of the Mets.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
And much like how people love to say, Hey.

Speaker 2 (21:49):
Bobby, but you today And by the way, Mocket fans,
did you get my Carter.

Speaker 3 (21:54):
Now I did, I got it. I got in the meltk.
Thanks for the gift card of that.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Yeah, I said rich a card and a balloon wishing
him a happy Bobby Benie a Day with a fake Yeah.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
The same way the Mets, you know, are mocked for
the Bobby Bennie a Day, rightfully so, because it's so Mets.
But we're saying how that gets tired. There's, uh, there's
something about the Mets, and I'm a diehard Mets fan where.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
They can't have anything nice, if that makes sense.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
The minute they have something nice, they celebrate it and
it sort of goes to crap. Allah Edwin Diaz, they
announced like, oh, timmy trumpets, he's coming out with trumpets.

Speaker 3 (22:31):
They do all this and then he ends up hurt
and never.

Speaker 4 (22:34):
The same mom a cheater, Edwin Diaz, shut your mouth
the right and now they get this lightning in a
bottle where they won you know what if they went
twelve or fourteen in the wild card mix and OMG
has performed live after the game.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
After an Astros win. Right, big win for the Mets
after a big win over their Astros.

Speaker 4 (22:56):
Yeah, and ever since they performed OMG, the Mets a
two close games in a rouse and like, ah, look
at that.

Speaker 3 (23:02):
The Mets just stop it, just stay the path.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
Yeah, the Mets are always like looking to hang on
to some gimmicky sort of good luck charm or something.
It's just that is very Mets.

Speaker 3 (23:14):
You know, Richard.

Speaker 4 (23:15):
In the nineties and two thousands, I remember after every
win they were playing like who let the dogs out?

Speaker 3 (23:19):
Like stop?

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Did we ever find out? I don't know, I don't know,
but you know, the grimmest thing was funny. It was
Fenny They're still It was definitely Agbayani, there was Turk Wendel.
He let the dogs out.

Speaker 4 (23:35):
So I uh, I saw at City Field there's just
so many people dressing up as Grimace and Keith Hernandez,
who is known to be like a grumpy or old guy.

Speaker 3 (23:44):
He's like, you mean, the best in the booth, that
grumpy guy with the mustagan he is. He is one
of the best. Man, He's really good. I'll take Cal
O'Neill and David Cone any day.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
And Michael says, like two out of one hundreds, me
and Michael Kay.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Yeah, you and Michael Kay that weenie. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
So you love to bring up that subjective just and
you know what, you're the first guy to say it,
so is that you everybody it's their hometown broadcasters they're
accustomed to are the best. I know, Gary Cohen, Gary
Keith and Ron have that reputation, I know, but everybody
thinks their guys are the best. Comparing Gary keithan Ron
to Michael k is like comparing Dan Patrick to weaning

(24:21):
the button on. Okay, tell me about that crumpy guy
who's the best in the booth.

Speaker 4 (24:25):
He was saying how he wants to go around Cityfield
and pop all the Grimace balloon costumes.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
That's kind of funny. That is kind of funny. Yeah,
they want to go pop a ball But again, isn't
that very mets?

Speaker 2 (24:36):
You know, to hold on to some goofy Grimace thing
and then it backfires and the jose Iglesias thing, by
the way, great song. We're saying, stop making fun of
Rich's mets. I Bobby Bennia day. It is really cool.
And I am the first to say. And I was
thinking when I was seeing the highlights from that performance
at city Field, Hey, whatever builds chemistry and builds camaraderie.

(25:00):
When you're seeing Lindor and Jad Martinez and and your
team danceing around after the game.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
Alonzo should not dance, Peter Alonzo should not dance.

Speaker 5 (25:09):
You know.

Speaker 2 (25:09):
But when he's part of the fun and if it
builds chemistry, lean into it. It's nice to see rich.
It really is. But we're not even kidding you. We're
not used to that's a conversation in itself. We're not
really used to seeing athletes become great entertainers in this way.
When you see Brett Favro in a movie, you know
it's gonna stink. You know his performance is gonna suck.

Speaker 3 (25:31):
Right, It's true.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
Give me your boy, your boy Jeter and anger Management.
It might have been the worst acting of all time.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
No, Farv is worse. But you're right, Goose frava rocket,
Goose Fraba. So when you see a middle infielder for
the Mets, Jose Iglesias, performing a song, you're like, is
it really a big song?

Speaker 3 (25:49):
No, it really is a big song.

Speaker 2 (25:51):
And people are saying this might be the Latin pop
song of the summer, Like this I e the jammy
jam of the summer that that the world needs forget
about your Mets. And it's number one on the pop charts.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
I saw Yeah on the Latin Pop past number one.
I saw KFC at barstool, who's also a Mets fan.
He was saying, all it needs is like a bed
Bunny remix or something, and it might be the mainstream
song of the summer.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Like it's that. It's that catchy and fun so and
it could happen. Yeah, why not. It could very well happen.
So it's legit, and I could think I can't think
of many examples where an athlete did something in entertainment
like this that wasn't sports related and hosting or something
like that where they were able to have a career

(26:39):
after because he's already said, you know, after baseball, that's
probably what he's going to lean into more his music,
and he's already got a hit on his hands.

Speaker 4 (26:49):
Now back to the original question to wrap it up.
We were talking about how people lean into the happy
Bobby Benia Day and it's the person that posted on
Facebook like your uncle, hey, hoppy Bobby Bennia Day is
the same person that says for every Hawk girl, there's
a guy that's sick a bang, And they're the same
guy that says.

Speaker 3 (27:09):
It's like a hot dog in a hallway.

Speaker 2 (27:10):
It's the same guy that says happy wife, happy life.
It's that they're cut from the same closet. By the way,
nothing rhymes with husband.

Speaker 4 (27:18):
And I was trying to think of something about hubby,
like happy hubby, something something about a chubby.

Speaker 3 (27:23):
I don't know, but I got one more.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
When someone says and they're having a drink, and they
love to say, huh, it's.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Five o'clock somewhere, Oh, there's a good one. Never heard
that one before, am I right?

Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
It's usually the person who just really leans into the
late joke that everybody knows but but loves it for
whatever reason, acting as if you never heard it. And
that's the guy who sends you the Bobby boonie or
who posts. There's a lot of people listening, probably like
ready to delete their post because they're like, oh my god, OMG,
I'm that guy because I post on Facebook. But you

(28:01):
know what, though, maybe that person's having more fun than you. No,
they're oblivious to the fact that we all saw hawk
to a girl. They're oblivious to the fact that we
all saw chocolate rain. It's like, yeah, we saw that
twenty years ago. They're oblivious to it's sort of.

Speaker 3 (28:19):
Not funny anymore.

Speaker 2 (28:21):
But that being said, there is a point in time
where things become funny again, when there's enough time has passed. Yeah,
you can bring it back. So happy Bobby Benie a day.
I don't know what you do to celebrate that. I
do give props to Bobby Benia. It's an awesome contract
that he signed, and you know, I guess it's always

(28:41):
fun to make fun of the Mets in a way.
But of course, I do think that the song was
kind of cool. I don't necessarily like it, but it's
a fun vibe. It's a fun song. It does need
a little rap track in there, from a Daddy Yankee
or from who did you say, bad Bunny or somebody.

Speaker 3 (29:00):
What don't you like about it? It's not my vibe.
That's what is my vibe, Not that two thousands and
nineties rock.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
Yeah, that's my vibe. Yes, people call it angry Divorced
that rock. Yeah, that's my vibe. As far as new stuff,
I like, I like more rock. As far as new stuff,
you asked, I'll shout out Dez Rocks. I like him,
look him up. I like some hip hop, some new
stuff some here and there, but not all of it,

(29:31):
not most of it. I don't hate the Jose Glaciers song.
I'm just saying it's like, I don't know it'd be
a fun beach. It's a vibe song meaning and I
don't I'm not saying vibes like a little wienial vibes.

Speaker 3 (29:43):
It gives me vibes es.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I'm just saying, if it's on the uh, on the
background at the beach, like.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
Who's not gonna like that? It's fun? Of course? Of course,
Well I'm not gonna be jammining in my car. You know.

Speaker 4 (29:56):
Let me let me ask you, did you uh you
see these two things over the week because I don't
know if they're your vibe. But Hawk to a Girl
hopped on stage at a Zach Bryan concert and she's
leaning into it. She's here, I am hawk to a girl.
And then in another stage moment, yeah, Michael J.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
Fox was on stage with Chris Martin and Coleplay playing
the electric guitar. And I think both of those moments
were pretty cool this weekend. You could tell me which
one you think is more fun?

Speaker 7 (30:27):
Are you really going to compare hawk to a Girl
to Michael J. Fox coming on stage with Coldplay.

Speaker 3 (30:32):
I mean, she's a merged spot from the darkness.

Speaker 2 (30:34):
Well, that was a big moment. He's not wrong there,
He's not.

Speaker 3 (30:38):
I mean the girl, the girl that stole the Internet
the most since.

Speaker 4 (30:43):
Tiger King four years ago, or the black dude on
the end of the bed would the biggest Internet. For
some reason, sensation emerged at a concert. I mean, it's
not Michael J. Fox with Coldplay, but I thought it
was something to mention.

Speaker 2 (30:57):
I'm not trying to be mean, because I mean, Michael J.
Is a treasure. He is a treasure. We love him.
They say that Back to the Future is the closest
thing to a perfect movie. I agree. I grew up
watching Family Ties. Okay, I loved Family Ties.

Speaker 3 (31:15):
I love Michael J.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
Fox, But if he's not playing Johnny be Good or eruption,
I'm not interested.

Speaker 3 (31:20):
Really still, I want to hear him lip sync Johnny
be Good.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
I want to see that. But the guy has Parkinson's
Yeah and fix such a like anthem. But it's like
a misery song that makes you feel some.

Speaker 3 (31:38):
Your girl there.

Speaker 7 (31:39):
All she did was walk out to a mic and
scream her catchphrase and walk away.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
But She's the hot thing at the moment. She's the
hot thing at the If you missed it again, howk
too A girl she's sweeping the nation. You've obviously heard
of her by now, I would imagine, right, she's some
viral girl.

Speaker 3 (31:55):
Dude.

Speaker 4 (31:55):
Athletes are paying tribute to her. We said last week,
Bryce Harper among others, are, uh, you know, stand up
double and they're doing a little hawk too of things.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
Yeah, they're grinding the pepper.

Speaker 7 (32:06):
Yeah, I mean, what a moment stage.

Speaker 3 (32:12):
The crowd goes into the skill and the right way spots. Right.

Speaker 5 (32:17):
She just screamed like those rappers that can't really wrap
on a live performance.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
They just scream everything.

Speaker 2 (32:23):
It's like a you're trying to sing along, but the
artist takes creative liberties to change it up a little bit.
You know, you got to get a little Yeah, she
she took creative liberties to change there.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
I don't know about you, guys.

Speaker 4 (32:36):
I've heard it's up there with you know, the Beatles
at Chase Stadium. It's up there with Elton John's last
play at Dodger stadiums.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
You know, same level.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
Right. Uh So we open it up to you Fox
Sports Radio Nation, The Dan Patrick Show Covino and Rich
on the Dan Slam. When it comes to these moments,
I think there's a clear winner.

Speaker 3 (32:53):
All right.

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Was the Hawk Tour thing funny and timely? I'll say
that timely. That's really all I'm gonna say about it.
Once that stand out for me, you know, recently was
Dave Chappelle singing Radiohead Creep.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
Did you see that? Of course? I thought it was fantastic.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
Dave Chappelle on stage the Food Fighters. I love those
random performances like that. They go viral the next day,
you know, spawn Jovi or somebody welcomes some random person,
a celebrity out onto the stage and they sing some
random song.

Speaker 3 (33:28):
And that's what cole Play did with Michael J. Fox.
And I think that's badass.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
And I'm pretty sure that's not the first time I've
seen Michael J. Fox with Coldplay, haven't I I'm pretty
certain I have before that, I think, so, Yeah, it's
been done before. I don't think it was fixed, you though.
The first time.

Speaker 3 (33:44):
It may have been Johnny be Good, it may have
been right, Yes, I think it was.

Speaker 7 (33:47):
I know.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
They said one of their songs on one of their.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
Albums was inspired by back to the future, right right,
So where other examples of this that stand out?

Speaker 3 (33:56):
Do you like this sort of thing or do you
hate it? I'm a fan. I like it. I think
that's when coleplay wins.

Speaker 4 (34:02):
If you're at a concert and they bring on some
celebrity or other artist or hey, we've got a surprise,
even if it's freaking howk to a Girl or Michael J. Fox,
when you're at that concert, it brings a good feeling, like, Yeah,
I'm a huge Billy Joel fan, being that I'm originally
from the East Coast and who doesn't love Billy Joel.
I saw him a couple of years ago. I saw

(34:22):
this clip floating around Instagram where he brought out a
very young Olivia Rodrigo to perform Uptown Girl with him,
and I thought it was awesome because she's, you know,
she's the voice of our kids generation, and you know
our parents love Billy Joel and here we are in
the middle, and I'm like, there's Billy Joel and Olivia Rodrigo.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
So I love those moments.

Speaker 4 (34:39):
So if you haven't seen either, one Hawk to a
Girl with h it was at Zach Bryan and of
course Cole playing Michael J.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Fox. Check those out.

Speaker 2 (34:49):
We got more Cavino and Rich live in Mercedes Benz Studios.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
Next, be sure to catch the live edition of The
Dan Patrick Show week days at nine am Eastern six
am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeartRadio.

Speaker 2 (35:04):
Wap you mean to tell me you made a time
machine out of a DeLorean?

Speaker 3 (35:11):
It's a good impression. Wow, well done. Was that from
the movie? Was that a clip?

Speaker 1 (35:16):
No?

Speaker 3 (35:16):
That was Alex P. Keaton aka Michael J.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Fox on stage with Coldplay over the weekend Fix You, which,
like I said, is a miserable song that sort of
I don't know, sort of really paints the Michael J.
Fox picture that we all feel when we see him.
And he performed over the weekend, and the question was
do you love those type of moments when Hey, let's

(35:41):
welcome so and so to the stage.

Speaker 3 (35:43):
And who won the weekend? Was it cole Play with
Michael J.

Speaker 2 (35:47):
Fox, the Treasure or Zach Bryan who brought out the
very timely hawked to a girl who did nothing. By
the way, she did nothing, agreed did nothing? Did you
hear her scream hawk to us? It was Yeah, it
was weak, dude, I really was but no value at it.

Speaker 4 (36:05):
I do love those moments and we were saying, that's
how you know it's over rich.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
Yeah, you can. You can be at a comedy.

Speaker 4 (36:11):
Show or a concert when they bring out a special guest.
That's always a that's always a nice thing. And by
the way, I'm looking at our feedback and people are
saying that, oh my god song, it really does just
need a bed Bunny a Bieber. Uh, like what Desposito
did by adding Justin Bieber to it and make make

(36:34):
it more mainstream. Add a pop star to a remix,
and that Mets middle infielder has a global hit on
his hands.

Speaker 3 (36:42):
I think if they add HOWK tour Girl, it might
really go next level. What do you think? I don't
know about that. It might might. It's always fun, do
you know?

Speaker 7 (36:49):
It's always fun too when you're at a game and
they do on the JumboTron, they'll show someone that's there
in the audience. Could be a for you know, former
team member, it could be a celebrity and everyone's cheers.

Speaker 3 (37:02):
Yeah, people do love that.

Speaker 4 (37:03):
You know what, one got bored when they use the
same one over and over at stinks though for a
long time they use Kevin James at City Field, and I'm.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
Like, I get it, he likes the Mets. Mix it up.
But I had a.

Speaker 4 (37:14):
Trivia question for you guys, if if you're cool with that,
being that Philadelphia is ride and high right now because
they just signed Paul George four years, two hundred and
twelve million dollars. Like the money of these days is
absurd because that's not even like a monster deal in
the NBA these days. But yeah, Paul George headed to Philadelphia.

(37:35):
So on this day, Danny said, I love on this
day facts. Well, how about this one? On this day
in eighteen seventy four, the first one of these opened
in the United States in Philadelphia. On this day, eighteen
seventy four, the first one of these opened up in Philadelphia.

(37:56):
And I'll give you a hint. It was a scene
for one of your favorite movies of all time. And
I'll just leave it to that one of your favorite.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
Characters from Dux Till Dawn, Dust Till Dawn with the
Selma Hyac scene.

Speaker 3 (38:09):
Goes, is that in Philadelphia? You boson? No, you said
the first one of these? Was it a a white castle?

Speaker 2 (38:16):
First one of these opened in Philadelphia and there's a
scene in one of your favorite movies.

Speaker 3 (38:21):
Scene eighteen what was it? Eighteen what? Eighteen sixty four,
seventy four, eighteen seventy four. Does it really make a difference? No,
but I'm saying to be factual.

Speaker 4 (38:33):
The first one of these open Philadelphia, and it was
highlighted in one of your favorite movies.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
So I think about what your favorite movies.

Speaker 5 (38:41):
I just love the way Covino will guess wrong if
you give the wrong clue.

Speaker 3 (38:45):
It's not the answer. Your clue is wrong, so he'll
guess wrong your clue.

Speaker 2 (38:50):
Let's see favorite movies, Goodfellas, Rocky had Lidelphia, See Rocky
somewhere in Philadelphia, Philly.

Speaker 4 (39:00):
You're on the right track, boxing gym Now. The first
one of these opened in eighteen seventy four in Philly.
It was in a famous scene in one of your
favorite movies in Philly.

Speaker 3 (39:10):
The pet store that Adrian Markedette pet store close.

Speaker 2 (39:13):
Oh oh, Philly, shees take place, Oh zoo yah. It
was one of that if you don't mind marry me
too much, the Philadelphia Zoo.

Speaker 3 (39:22):
Wow, take her to the zoo? Yeah win.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
Wait, hold on, we got to explain this too, because
there's no way that everybody knows this, and.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
By the way, give us clues again.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
Okay, the first one of these opened in eighteen seventy
four in Philadelphia, and the answer is a zoo. And
Rich said, well, there's a connection twenty your favorite movies.
Rocky Balboa takes Adrian too the zoo in Philadelphia.

Speaker 3 (39:47):
He proposes, he proposes there. But here's the joke.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
And in front of what animal, mister tiger, mister tiger,
you're talking to the expert who talked about him last
night on the History Channel. I did a whole series
on It's a nigger and stallone last night on the
History Channel called Icons That Built America, And if you
haven't checked it out, please do.

Speaker 3 (40:06):
It's a fun show. There's a bet right there. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Now, if you didn't know this, I'm not surprised because
Rich and I didn't know this, and we're big Rocky fans.
In Rocky one, the Academy Award winning Rocky nineteen seventy six,
he goes to Gozo and one of Gozo's drivers, one
of Gozo's goons, is like, hey, take it to the zoo,
and then he uses a dated un PC term to

(40:32):
describe her and he goes, they loved the zoo, take
it to the zoo and stallone Rocky here Yoh absolutely,
why has you gotta beat like that?

Speaker 3 (40:41):
Absolutely?

Speaker 2 (40:43):
And he's all mad about it because why would he
take the woman he loves to the zoo if if
these people like the zoo. And then three years later
when the next movie comes out, in the opening scenes,
he takes her to the zoo and gets married.

Speaker 3 (40:59):
So that's he poses to the zoo.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
He proposes at the zoo, so he fits like in
the back of Rocky's mind, he's thinking, well, she must
like the zoo because she's a little she's a little
different Adrian. She's quiet, she's quiet, she's quiet. Ye, you're
shine workings froman what.

Speaker 3 (41:19):
Does he say? We were like a couple of coconuts.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
So it was like a three year long joke that
no one picked up on.

Speaker 4 (41:29):
It was it was a politically incorrect three year punchline
joke from the seventies.

Speaker 3 (41:34):
Again, no one picked up on her.

Speaker 2 (41:36):
In the first movie they say take her to the zoo,
and he's mad about it, and the second one he
does take her to the zoo and proposes. So the
first zoo opened up all those years ago.

Speaker 3 (41:46):
Look at that.

Speaker 4 (41:47):
I was just it ties in. Also because Philly having
a good day. Hey it's fourth of July week. They
just got Paul George in Philadelphia. The only bummer is
at Bryce Harper's hurt. Besides that, everything's good in Philly.

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
