(02:08):
Now every Thursday we throw it back old school in
fifty hits. Throw it back on a Thursday reminiscent while
he amos passed away. You know, back in the day
when you were a kid man. That was a big story.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
This guy. I think he invested.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
He got a twenty five thousand dollars bank loan and
he banked it on his cookies. He then became famous
Amos and it was a household name and it was
putting every kid's lunchbox around the world. He passed away
at eighty eight in his home in Hawaii, complications with dementia.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
So again it's sad. Yeah, you know, because I'm on
Shark Tank. Yeah, you know what, Danny, what was he
selling a new.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Cook Yeah, it was a Hawaiian cookie he did. He
was trying to rebound, and none of the sharks were
interested in investing me because they thought he They're like,
you're the guy, you're the product, you're the name in
the face, so they didn't want to go with something
brand new with him.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, he was a recognizable They're like, yeah, we know
you all the Amos. What you did was incredible. He
had that hat, he always had like a.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Hawaiian shirt on.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, Cuban and them, they were like in awe of
him because they knew his story.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
He was the guy, and he passed away, and.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
It just got us thinking about your favorite lunch botch,
lunch box snacks. Growing up as the kiddies go back
to school. Our kids out here in La already back
to school. Yeah, East Coast does it right after Labor Day.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
But I know Florida's back to school.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
And I know that because I saw one of my buddies,
like you know, his kids on the front stoop first.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Day of fourth grade. Like, sorry, you had to see that.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
You're gonna start seeing all those But you know what,
Danny better than people fight about politics on facebookch what
comes to mind? Maybe it's a forgotten one. Let's unlock
some memories. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight
seven seven ninety nine on Foxer Hit us Up at
Covino and Rench at Fox Sports Radio. It's extra sad too,
because again, we remember this dude because he was the face.
He was amous, famous amis, even though he sold the company.
(03:56):
And it does make you think, like kids growing up
when they see those cookies, they're gonn.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Like he was a real guy.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
And it's kind of like like if you have kids now,
some of us were old enough to remember that Orble
Reddenbacher was a real dude. He wasn't he shut the
popcorn guy in the commercials.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I haven't even rid about it. I mean, some of
us are old enough.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
I feel like, uh, some of us are enough to
think that, Hey, the Quaker Oats guy was a real dude.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
He was next. You're gonna tell me Colonel Sanders was second.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
No, no, but that's my point, right, Colonel Sanders was
a real guy. He was in the commercials. Orble Reddenbacher,
real guy. He was in the commercials.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
He was still alive. No he's not.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
He was perfecting his popcorn famous amus real guy. Kids
are gonna be like, oh, I thought that was just
a brand, Like no, no, no, we were alive to
see this dude and he passed away. Dave Thomas, real guy,
real daughter Wendy. Right, yeah, of course, so he's one
of those dudes and we'll be remembered for his cookies.
What comes to mind, because for me, as an eighties kid,
(04:58):
I think there's a number one Steve Harvey answer on
the board confirmed.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
By the way that Steve Harvey's flat top was fake. Yeah,
oh yeah, it's all over social media. Look at that.
So if you're asking what the favorite lunch box treat.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Is, before you before you get to that rich. Can
I start with your favorite lunch boxes as a kid? Yeah?
Did you have a box or a bag? Did you
have a metal lunchbox or a plastic one?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
A sweet thermist man. I grew up in the eighties,
so you had like a Transformer or a he Man lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I eighteen or something. I had Danny.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
I transitioned, you had to have a trapper keeper in
a sweet lunch box. When I say that, I don't
mean I don't mean a Caitlyn Jenner style. I transitioned
from the metal lunchbox to the plastic Who'd you have,
Sepulteur of.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Noly? You're right in kindergarten. Some of us still had
the metal one.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
If you're if you're roughly forty ish, you started with
the metal lunchbox and then like Scooby Doers, and then
in the early nineties it was like now they were plastic.
I had a hul Cogan Wrestling Superstar lunchbox. Brother brother,
I had an ol lunch box I had. I had
a Mister T eighteen.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I had that one to the red one and Mister
T's flexing on the front.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Did you use the thermos? Did anyone you use the thermos,
we'd always lose the top lunchboxes? Did you guys have
one every year?
Speaker 4 (06:21):
You guys have seen that meme where there's two aisles
in the store all of the different characters of lunchboxes.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yes, but what would you fill those with? Yeah, boys,
that's the question. That's a good question. Daddy, g who
was on your lunchbox?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
It is that?
Speaker 4 (06:36):
And then these treats. A lot of times it was
a surprise. You didn't see your mom or your dad
packed the lunch. So when it was time to open
it up, that's when you saw if you had.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
A treat'd be also probably I guess mom and dad
were busy last night. They gave you a skimpy lunch,
you know, tortilla with peanut butter. Like, what is this tortilla?
You know, if you want to, if you want to
really unlock some memories, just google image what you think
you remember your lunchbox to be and you'll be like,
oh my god, that's the one that's that will.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Always make you feel a little nostalgic. Right, would you
have to pay?
Speaker 6 (07:11):
You?
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Paper bagged?
Speaker 3 (07:12):
It?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Paper bagged?
Speaker 3 (07:13):
You know it's different? Now, uh, now you you rock
the paper bag. That's that's the way to go.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
I don't know if you like, mama'd be like you
ain't bring you back home, Yo, Joe, this is no joke.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Cavino tell me his daughter's school kids are like doing
Uber eats at lunchtime, like they get they getting deliveries.
They actually stopped it this year. They're trying to stop
it this year again. COVID game changer. What used to
be the joke in the eighties of Spiccola ordering pizza
to the classroom became the norm. Became the norm, Like
kids were just ordering Uber eats to the playground. Yeah,
(07:45):
Tyler ordered Chipotle. What we have Chipotle for Gregor's So
what did you fill the lunch box with? Let's hear
about your snack packs back to school, famous sam As
rest in p Those cookies were good, man, But I
loved the I love the lunchtime Saggi cookies that they sold. No, No,
(08:05):
I love the Linden's. Yeah, dude, dude took the words
right out of him. I'm mouth there the three pack
of chocolate chip Linden Cookies and Linden look it up
and you'd be like, oh, yeah, that is a lunchtime
true Danny g look up Linden, but my dad would
remember that as a vendor. But the Cavino fortune. The
reason I was so spoiled, Joel is my dad ran
(08:27):
vending machines, a vending machine company growing up, and I'd
be his little helper, carrying cases of.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Soda with him everywhere he went.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Cavino's dad was a bad vending guy. Like you would
hit the Yuhu button and chocolate cow would come here.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
He was that guy.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
You'd hit the Coca Cola button and RC color would
come to seagrums, you get Canada dry. It was that
sort of deal. But you know that's the business my
dad ran, so i'd roll with him. I used to
ride with the vending machine repairman and my dad would
always be selling out a famous amos, so I'd have
them all around the house and my dad would he
don't be eating the eating up the prophets, because I
(09:01):
would love famous amos and I would have those in
my lunchbox too. But I do think I have the
number one answer as an eighties kid. It's generational. Some
of these may be may have been forgotten. It's it's
also very subjective to you. So hey, let's let's share
some stories. Eight seventy seven ninety nine on Fox. I
don't think I'm gonna steal your answer, because I think
you're probably thinking different than me.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I used to be so jealous of the kids.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Oh boy, and listen, if you go to my house
right now, we have costco cases of them in the
garage because I got two little rugrats and we always
have kids over after after soccer or softball or t ball.
I'm the guy that always has the kids and the
people over my house. I have Capri Sons by the dozen.
But when I was a kid, I thought those were
(09:48):
for rich kids because my mom's like, no, no juice
in a pouch. I got SIPs, you remember, SIPs, nips, SIPs,
And I was always like, oh man, Caprice Sons must
be for the rich kids.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
They weren't.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
My mom just didn't buy them. And the and the
other one. You know what, I'm gonna save it. Let's
hear yours the phones, Let's hear it. I'm gonna steal
somebody's hands. I'm sorry, but the number one is an
eighties kid. Because it was a game changer. Kids would
be bringing little things of cheese and the wax. I
don't even know what they're called. You know, the cheese
and the wax. Kids would have their cheese doodles and
whatever it was available at the time. But when fruit
(10:22):
roll ups became a thing, that was the game change.
I think that was Danny's number one really, because a
lot of people probably think they've been around forever. They
came out in the eighties as far as I know,
because they were always a part of my child.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
They even had them in the produce section of the grocery.
But and they're kind of we were sold that they
were healthy, their fruit, right right, They weren't. They had
a lot of sugar packed in there.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
But dude, nose came out. You're like, you wrap them
around your finger, you take a bite at you lunchbox
game change for sugar.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
There were two items where I thought, oh, my mom
must have got a bonus on our last check when
there was a fruit roll up inside on lunchbox or
a hostess item. I don't know about you guys is
on the East coast, but here in southern California.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
It's big for us, okay, but hostess as well.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Did you guys have any of the wonder hostess outlets.
Of course we call the day old bread stores.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
They'd give you a discount. Can they be like almost expired.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
But my mom she would go there and we would
have like the hostess. Hey, talking about the hose.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Chocolate, the little white Yeah, Thursday, shout out to the whole.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Hose here till Thursday. Oh look it's Thursday, all right,
Now go to the phones, Nicope. I want an answer
to Joel. You got to think about it. Let's talk
to I want to talk to Josh and Ohio.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Josh and Ohio your favorite lunch box snacks and tribute
to famous Aamus who passed away eighty eight.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 10 (11:48):
Guys.
Speaker 9 (11:48):
I had a Master of the Universe lunchbox with Ecto
Core high in US.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Oh dude, you just hit it.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I had?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
How did I miss that?
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I definitely had a he Man lunchbox in the mix
somewhere Masters of These definitely had a he Man one,
without a doubt. But Ecto Cooler. You know, I think
if your kids are a little older than us in between,
then Ecto Cooler, I think became like Shrek because then
they just branded it with Shrek Green, the Green high Sea, Yeah,
the Green high Sea, which is always fun ecto cooler. Yeah,
that was great for sure, that's a great one. And
(12:18):
again to give a perspective, we're we're in our forties,
we act like we're in our you know, late twenties.
Well do you act like your fourteenth Yeah, exactly. Scott
is Oregon. What's up, Scott?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Hey, Scott, we're taking my call.
Speaker 11 (12:33):
Hey, So, I'm fifty seven this month. And when I
was a little kid, and I mean like little, like
five or six, I remember distinctly my dad took me
to the Kentucky Fried Chicken in Albany, Oregon, and Colonel
Sanders was there.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
That's crazy, man, That isn't that cool?
Speaker 11 (12:51):
And I remember distinctly he looked exactly exactly like like
the pictures that you see of him. I mean the
string tie.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
By the way, I'm gonna blow your mind, Scott, Scott,
look at the look at the KFC logo, and this
will blow your mind forever. Colonel Sanders's his head in
the and the tie. The head and the tie. If
you look at the tie, it could look like arms
and legs, looks like his body, and it looks like
his body like a stick figure.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
A lot of people, a lot of younger people think
that's his body, his goofy tie.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
That meme is messed with a lot of people.
Speaker 12 (13:25):
I know.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Meeting Colonel Sanders, that's like meeting Aaron Judge today.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's that's like meeting Orable Reddenbacker and Caitlin Clark. Yeah,
let's say, how to doug and Boise.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
What's up? Doug Hey, doug Hey, guys.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
So for me, it was a dukes of hazard lunchbox. Yeah,
and butterscotch pudding cup with the foil lid.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Dude, when my when my mom splurge for the Swiss Miss,
the Swiss miss pudding cups that remember they had the
vanilla Chalco and.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
The oh you get that swirl Swiss. Oh Mom, you
shouldn't have.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
A little a little uh, a little more. My brother
and sister style, they're like five years younger. My siblings
are in their late thirties now. Yeah, so they were
more kids.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Of the nineties.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I'm giving away a big answer here, I know, but
it starts with a G. Right, No, then I got one.
My siblings would love to house some dunk arouse.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, that's a big answer. Don't had to come back
and dunk a ruse.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
I always thought it was interesting because it it taught
a kid responsibility.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
And I'll explain.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Because you had all your little cookies and you just
had that little bit of cream in the cover.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You learned how to.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Ration because if you're the with the what was the
one cheese and crackers the craft ones? Yeah, because if
you used a red plastic stick, if you used all
the cheese or all the dunk a roof frosting on
the first two, then you would just have cookies left.
It's like when you have cereal with marshmallows. You gotta
he's just eating all the marshmallows because then you just
have bunk cereal left all right, now again your phone calls.
(15:05):
Don't want to take away all the answers. Dougle was
a good one too. If you had younger siblings. Here
was the the tough part about being an older sibling.
You'd want to eat all their little kids snacks.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah you know what I mean, you would.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
I was, and they had SIPs and what were those
kool aid ones too, with the plastic twist off things?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah, of course, those plastic key kool Aid drinks. You'd
be housing those.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Well, you and I have talked about this before as well.
If you're living that dad life, you'd probably be five
pounds slimmer if you didn't have kids, because you'll eat
all the leftovers out of their lunchbox. So if your kids,
you know, leave their snacks around for sure. Yeah, let's
talk to Marco in La. What's up, Marco, No problem.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
My parents know.
Speaker 12 (15:52):
They're making us so't They weren't much for snacks, so
they would just kind of wrap up burrito egg burta
and wrap it in a boil, put it in my lunch.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
So the guy before but you had a duque to
too many burritos, he does have the duquet of hazard.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
You know what's funny about that is our buddy Sebastian Man.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Of Scalco, I just was thinking the same thing.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
He often talks about, how you know, look, we all
have immigrant grandparents, and my mom's from Mexico, and it's
always the foreign kid. He said, he would come in
with like tupperware of like kids would have like very
americanized sandwiches and pbjs.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
He come in with the ball of lasagna. Sebastian. What's
for lunch? He'd have, Uh, he'd have Penny vodka.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yeah, you'd have spaghetti meatballs why and he would have that.
And you know, that's how it was. I remember the
other some kids would come in, they'd have last.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Night's left over.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Heat it up in the teachers lounge exactly, so he
just took right there. Really, that's how you rolled whatever
you had, like left.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Over from night before.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
Whatever Mama decided, split up the whole dinner for all
five of us.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
You know how you're just begging for your kids to
eat anything, because the worst feeling is when your you
and your wife pack your kids lunch and they come
home and you're like, you didn't even touch your lunch.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, I know it happens a lot, but I'm like,
what did you eat today, buddy?
Speaker 3 (17:18):
My wife will do this now, and at first I'm like, hey,
that's weird, but they eat them. My wife will make
like Dino nuggets in the morning, they're hot, she'll put
them in his lunchbox and I guess they stay warm enough.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
My kid'll eat. He wants to eat cold.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Chicken nuggets more than a sandwich. Wow, kids love chicken nuggets.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
They do. They really do.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
So I'm gonna say it because I don't think anyone
has it here. But my number two answer on the board,
I said foot roll MPs. I would say a good
ten years, maybe plus more. When my siblings were packing
their little lunch box, their little spongebomb with lunchboxes, they're
rugrat lunchboxes.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Gushers was a game change.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You think Cushers the Cops era.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I was you brought up fruit roll up.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
In my mind immediately went to Gusher's.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
And I was older, right, But if I saw those
bad boys lying around, guess what my siblings had no
more gushes.
Speaker 13 (18:15):
I don't know if you ever saw the commercials, but
don't you remember the commercials where their head would turn
into the fruit and everyone's like, oh, be careful, man,
you can't don't eat the blue one.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
I do.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
There's a whole viral, I guess, movement, a whole trend
of how weird those commercials were at that time if
you look it up, promoting all these kids snacks and
things of the late eighties, early nineties. So again famous
name has passed away, your favorite lunchbox snacks.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Who else we got? Let's go to Ben in Wisconsin.
What's up Ben?
Speaker 12 (18:48):
Hey there, how are you guys doing? Thanks very much
for taking my call.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Hell yeah, man, what's up?
Speaker 6 (18:53):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (18:53):
I'm driving around, just got my three boys haircuts today.
We're getting ready for school. So this is a fantastic topic.
But I had an entire Drike's back lunch bottles. Yeah,
that just takes me way back. I also had a
dukes of Hazard but man, those were just fun to
just interchange. But my favorite, though, the fruit roll ups
is a good one. But fun fruits, you guys, remember
(19:13):
those things, those little things that look like, you know,
almost like boters that you would eat, but they were
like great flavored or orange.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I want to see the packaging because I think I
know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Fun fruit.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Also, look up, do you remember fruit wrinkles? Does anyone
remember fruit wrinkles? That's what you have in your underroost
right right now? Rich kept them for a good one.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
It was.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Was there anything worse when somebody gave you the little
red box of raisins? Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (19:42):
Thanks, yeah, thanks Grandma for packing the lunch. Thanks sun made.
Yeah wait, hold on, fun fruits is what he said, right, Yeah,
totally those were made by sun kissed. Those were great. Yeah,
I like those a lot. I remember those.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
You know, would you would you call it? You know
how for every transform a gobots? Would you call fruit
by the foot the weaker fruit?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Roll up?
Speaker 3 (20:04):
What do you admire? Fruit by the foot? That's what
I did. Maybe it was healthier or something.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
I don't know. Fruit by the foot I.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Was still legitimb was rolled up and you'd pulled off
the wax paper.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Let's take John for now than the rest of your
phone calls.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Man, and we will talk some more nfl not all
snacks all day, don't worry, but having fun with this,
a little reminiscing in honor of famous amos.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
What's up John and Florida?
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Hey guys, great show, great topic. I was just telling
him I think we're like sitting in my basement talking
back in the eighties. My lunchbox was already taken. Empires
strikes back. It was my number one. But then my
second one was How with the Duck? I had a
How with the Duck?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
One best movie of all time?
Speaker 9 (20:46):
Yeah, best movie all time? How with the Duck? And
the snack that we only got. We always wanted hostess,
but we always got the knock off Drake's and it
was the Devil Dog. We always wanted to Hostess Cupcake,
but we never got that. We always got the Devil
Dog or the coffee Cake two pack. And a funny
thing about Famous Name is he made a cameo appearance
(21:09):
on one of the episodes of the Office. If you
guys didn't know.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
That, you know what when I looked up Famous Name
as that popped up on TMZ.
Speaker 2 (21:16):
So yeah, he was on the Office.
Speaker 3 (21:17):
And by the way, when you say Devil Dogs, I
could feel it stuck to the roof of my mouth.
Right you're search around for that carton of chocolate milk
in your in your cafeteria because you need something to
watch that bad boy.
Speaker 2 (21:27):
Damn. The Devil Dog was so good, but you needed it.
Speaker 3 (21:30):
You need a milchoker for sure. All Right, more calls
and we'll get to some NFL. I mean, I can't
believe we're like three weeks away from NFL kickoff?

You That's why I'm glad that you guys got that
we week we dy gig on the blow tours. Finally
everywhere man, so America gets Cabino and Rich trying bro Hey,
So back to the subject. I had one Like when
I was a wee tot, my lunchbox was the Fox
(23:53):
and the Hound and I loved that thing.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Man, it's a great pill. I love that till you.
Speaker 14 (24:01):
Broke the thermis.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
Right after you dropped that.
Speaker 14 (24:04):
Thermids No, hey, that stuff you would use the thermis
after the broken glass, that thing would cool off within
like twenty minutes.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
It sucked.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
By the way, Fox and the Hound very underrated. Man
that story. I'll make you cry, make you shed one.
Thank you, Manuell. By the way, Danny, did you get
my mom on the phone? I sure did.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
My favorite one of my favorite parents of the crew
because she's a diehard Raider film.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Oh yeah, she actually named his brother Jimmy after Jim Plunkett.
I think we lost my mom. Yeah, let's she hung up.
Your mom hung up on you, rich Richie.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I'll get her right right, I get her back because
I wrote down because earlier in the show, we were
saying a great way to figure out who's popular is
to do the mom test. Ask your mom does she
know this athlete? If your mom knows them, they're a
household name. And we were saying, other than Aaron Judge,
are there any real household name.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
In the world of baseball?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
If your mom is like my mom, she just hung
up to answer the other line. She just didn't know, Richie,
your sister was calling. She's closing on her house this week.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
You know, my mom just realized. Yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
By the way, I was showing her this like new
Yankee watch. Then I got to see this a little
white Yankee original green Brook. It's like a picture of it.
I'm like, look, I'm wearing the watch. I'm like, take
a look. She's like I will. I'm like, no, I
sent it to you.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Look.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
She's like I will.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
I'm like, this is total parents with technology. But I
called her back right now. It went to her voicemails.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Hung up.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
I'm going to my mom and no, but look at it.
You could look at the picture I sent you. We're
on the phone. She's like, I'll look at it later.
I'm like, mom, she's like, it's nazy, gonna.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Hang up if I look at it. I'm like, no,
what are you talking about. They're the worst. They are
the worst. Like no, it's not going to hang up.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Hang up, that's it, they think, And then they hang
up when you don't want him to hang up.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
My mother has learned FaceTime.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Maybe maybe Rich's mom being on the phone wasn't a
good idea anyway, because she would have called Rich out
for all his weak lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I tracked her down like a bill collector. I remember
you had the Pound puppies. I remember you had Rainbow Bright. Oh,
I'm Richie loved the Smurfs.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Let me ask her my mom, Mary Anne, Hi, Mom,
Hey you're on the air, so behave. And Covino and
I were talking about old school lunchboxes. Do you remember
what lunchboxes I had as a kid.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
I only remember one, Ninja Turtles. Ninja Turtles.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
She confused me. My brother probably had. My mom does
that all the time. And I'm like, that wasn't me,
that was my stupid brother, My mom, Oh, it's definitely
Jimmy Mom. I'm gonna ask you some uh, some baseball players.
You tell me if you know them, Okay.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Yeah, but I just want to tell you one thing.
Speaker 14 (26:57):
Tell Danny g I'm going to the Raven Raiders game
September sixteenth.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Why. My mom's a big Raiders fan, as you know.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Yeah, I heard that you named Rich's brother after Jim Plunkett.
Speaker 14 (27:11):
Yes, I did.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Good woman. It's a little weird. Should be in the
Hall of Fame, right mom?
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yes he is.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
No, No he's not. He should be. No, he's in
her hall of fame. He's rich adopted. I was named
after Richard Simmons. No, I'm kidding. Oh so all right,
let me ask you about do you know who Aaron judges.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Yes, he hit his three sports knowledge?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Mom, do you know who Mookie Bets is? MOOKI who
Mookie Betts?
Speaker 10 (27:47):
No, I only know Moki Wilson.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Okay, doesn't Okay, so Mookie Betts. I'm surprised I would
be Wilson around the corner.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Mom. You're proving a point though, is that you know
you can name a ton of football players, but by
small doesn't have big stars.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Do you know who? Do you know who is?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
No?
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Wow? Crazy? That's that's you know, But.
Speaker 14 (28:10):
I haven't been really following the nets.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That's fine? Is this is just seeing?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah, but hey look at that. But you could probably
like if I were to name, you know who.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Russell Wilson is, Yes, he is quarterback?
Speaker 3 (28:25):
This proves the point point. NFL, NBA they create stars.
The MLB not so much.
Speaker 10 (28:34):
Oh god, what is it? The Broncos he was, No,
he was on the Broncos.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Now he's on the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
You got her going, Yeah, so you know, you know,
you know all you know Dak Prescott, you know Lamar Jackson,
you know all this. She knows Ga, Yes, I know
all the Raiders like what they Yeah, he.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Had the worst nickname. Mom, you know they used to call.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Do you think Gardner Minshew? You think Minshew is going
to have a good season.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
I'm being a raid of fans so like it's going
to show my age, like fifty years wow. Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
By the way, my mom is convinced she doesn't think
she has an East Coast accent.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yes, hey, Mom, have a great day. I love you,
I love you. Go raiders for you and Danny G's sake.
Speaker 4 (29:23):
You're awesome. Have a fun raider season.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Maybe I can make you when I come here Thanksgiving?
You want to hang with Danny G. We'll go have
some wings and watch the rain. Can you say Ritchie
for us one time?
Speaker 6 (29:38):
What? Like?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Ye yell at Richie like as if he was in
trouble at the house.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
He's never in trouble.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I was a good kid. Say I was a good kid, Ritchie.
I love you, Mom. Thank you. By the way, that's
a that's Marianne, everybody.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
I just figured we do the mom test, if you know,
and if you just joined us, people were like, are
they interviewing Edith correct?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
What's going on? I don't know. Rich is really a
real child.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
And by the way, Michael Rus's place, he had an
Archie Bunker lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
It brought up another silly question off the air. We
were talking about how you know all these lunchboxes and
treats we had. Yeah, do you remember because famous Am
has passed, Yeah, do you remember the last? Like I
would say, the last you were the last person to
think something was cool and your friends called out. Mike
was saying how he had a sleepover with some of
his little buddies and it was Saturday morning. He's like, hey, guys,
(30:33):
we'll trust the Smurfs, and they were like Mike, like, Smurfs,
you nerd, We're waiting. We're waiting for the Gladiators to start. Like, Mike,
we're twelve. We don't like the Smurfs anymore. Yeah, we're
into American battery. It is cool stuff. Smurf boy were
saying that in middle school and high school, she was
still like yeah, Batstreet Boys and all her friends like
we're off that.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah, there was always something right like yeah, like you
were like, what's uh.
Speaker 12 (30:58):
It was?
Speaker 3 (30:58):
It was always probably some cheesey cartoon or something you
watch as a kid or collected. Yeah, you know, like,
oh he still plays with thundercuts. Yeah what he's a
nerd nerdy. Thank you guys for hanging Covino on Rich
A lot of fun on the Dan Patrick hat trick. Now,
get this Colin Kaepernick. Every time we bring him up,
Danny and she's like, oh man, what a waste of breath?
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Right, I just feel like it's whenever you bring up
in Aaron Rodgers' topic. Also like there's I feel like
thousands and thousands of eyes are rolling as you know,
they're listening to radio.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
He might be like the express pro pro of the
week or something, because he's in the headlines all week
for three different things. Now, the first story I saw was,
or one of the first is that he wants back
in in the NFL and he's keeping in shape still, Like,
oh wow, I thought we were past that because we
(31:53):
barely heard that last year. Last year was one of
the first years I think we didn't hear any whisper
of well callan Kaepernick's still available. Yeah, I thought that
ship had sailed myself and that and that happened this week.
Like he's still thinking he's gonna play. Has been eight
plus years or whatever. I mean, it's since the forty
nine ers, you know, almost won the super Bowl against
(32:16):
the Ravens in New Orleans. That was twenty thirteen, the
twenty twelve twenty thirteen season, so it's over a decade
since Kap was in the Super Bowl. So I thought
that ship would sailed. That was story one, Yes, Story
two was hey, you know what, Hey, maybe if he
doesn't play. He's saying, I do want to play on
that flag football team in the Olympics. When this happens,
(32:36):
he wants to play, So he wants to throw his
hat in that one too. What type of hatfits on
that hair?
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Though? A noggin boss?
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Good luck beating out Caleb Williams.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Right, and then rich.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
The most recent story is Harbaugh saying that he offered
him a job to coach, be part of the staff.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yeah, he says he'd be a.
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Tremendous coach if that's the path he chose. But the offers,
and I think Kaepernick's considering it, and for me, it's
like a no brain.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
It's the move.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Him and Harbaugh went to the Super Bowl together, clearly
to have a chemistry, and clearly Harbaugh is the type
of guy that he respects as a mutual respect. I
think if dude, Cap wants back in the league. I
think with Harbaugh is the right is the right move
because the Chargers the trajectory's only up right. They've been
disappointing for years. I think it's also part of their
new identity.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
If he would have.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Joined, Harbaugh says, if that was ever the path he
was to take, I think that would be tremendous. And
I think the story was that Kaepernick's on vacation. He
showed interest but said something like, yeah, you know what,
I'm gonna get back to you. I'm gonna circle back
when he when he gets home. But it's a strong possibility.
I couldn't agree with you more rich. This is the angle,
(33:51):
this is the offer you want back in the league. Yo,
Look man, you're older now, this is it.
Speaker 12 (33:56):
This is it.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Run with it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Now reheadlines for Colin Kaepernick. Wish them the best. But
speaking of flag football, I also think this is a
strong possibility. No, Kause' why unless you go the route
I think you're going, which is in four years when
flag football is in the Olympics, who do you want
(34:20):
on Team USA? That's the question. Guys like Tyreek Hill
are saying, I want in. Is that really the best route.
Taking these risks on these star players, they turn an
ankle and flag football. Danny mentioned that Caleb Williams once
an Caleb Williams said it on hard Knocks or would
you say, yeah, I like to see Colin Kaepernick. I
(34:41):
like to see Teo o Jo Sinko, those guys who
were Peyton Manning, those guys who are still maybe in
shape and young enough to compete and maybe win. What
would be more fun the legends are current day pros.
Think about that. It's a good question because we're saying
the legends may be just as cool. Well, listen, it's
gonna be flag football in the twenty twenty eight Olympics
(35:03):
is gonna be like the Dream Team in ninety two.
The competition is not even close to being there. This
is not like the twenty twenty four US men's basketball
team where Serbia, France, other places I've caught up. Whoever
represents the USA will win in astronomical fashion. So instead
of putting Tyreek and Caleb and the McCaffrey, who would
(35:25):
you want when it comes to older, maybe retired stars
to represent the US. We'll take your feedback and calls.

(36:34):
But Kaepernick got me thinking all let's talk of flag
football got me thinking. He said he wanted in everybody's
saying they want in. Caleb Williams this week on Hard
Knocks wanted in. And it becomes an interesting question because
didn't we say yesterday that they're gonna make this into
(36:55):
the contracts moving forward.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Ye.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
Yeah, it's gonna be a player's unit an issue right now.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
So a player's union issue where in order to play
flag football, remember today's current player, that's a high risk.
That's a high risk to say, yeah, we're gonna let
you guys play their investments Tyreek Hill major investment they
want in, they want to play. Teams are fighting and
deciding do I want to play or pay Brandon Ayuk?
(37:23):
What's Jamar Chase going to get? What do those numbers
look for? Like a VARs CD lamb Once Jerry Jones
gets moving on this. If you're gonna pay guys thirty
plus million dollars to play the wide receiver position and
your quarterbacks are making fifty sixty million dollars before you
know it, do you want them playing flag football in
the Olympics. Well, Peter O'Reilly of the NFL is currently
(37:46):
working with players with the Players Union for x and
current players to play in the Olympics. Now, is that
the ultimate goal too, like would you want to see
X and current maybe just x y guys who are
still in shape, Like what's it's more fun? Or do
you want to see the new guys?
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Well mixture? And it would make the most sense because
if you think of the other countries, they're probably gonna
have all their younger, most talented athletes. If you're saying,
like last segment, you said Peyton Manning at QB, maybe
well you would need a younger receiver, younger receivers in
running backs with him?
Speaker 2 (38:17):
That would you know what? That would be the coolest
thing I think about it.
Speaker 3 (38:21):
I have a Tom Brady out there, like an all
time quarter Yeah, the Tyreek kill or Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Lukoy just looked up Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Yeah, but you always look love Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
That is true.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
I just looked up Tom Brady because I'm like, how
old is he going to be in twenty twenty eight?
And the answer in twenty twenty eight tom Brady is
going to be it is fifty one, right, he's.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
He's also in great shape.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
But but what if you have fifty Just think about it,
Like I said before, if you're gonna blow out every
king in mind. Like I said before, I'll say it again.
What Team USA in flag football will do in twenty
twenty eight to other teams will be like what the
ninety two Dream Team did in basketball. The world's gonna
need another couple decades to catch up. The game is
(39:09):
just starting to spread to Germany. They do the games
in London, they do the games in Mexico City. The
international layer in aspect of the NFL is relatively new.
Do you want the legends, the pros, the risk of
the current pros or the mix which they're trying to
again get approval for as we speak. I don't think
it's crazy to say I think the legends just as cool, though, Man,
(39:31):
I get I think that's even cooler, because, yeah, fast
forward four years. Who's going to be the elite guys
we've already named. Guys are gonna be way past their prime,
Like if it would have happened today, maybe a guy
like T's too old four years of that too, is
not playing flag football in the Olympics. But I'm saying
those dudes who could probably like Cam Newton or something
like that, you know what I mean, The guys who
(39:52):
are still gonna have their legs and still competing and
there's no risk. Really, Tom and Gronky Tommy and Gronky Rocky.
What would you want to see if and when that happens,
Because then again you're hearing all these names saying, you know,
I want in, and they're trying to make these Oh
I got these clauses happened in the contract.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
I got another layer to your your Sunday football dip, sure.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Beans six layers. Here, here's the other layer. We had
people arguing on this network. I mean every day I
felt like Doug Gottlieb was arguing with someone about Tatum
didn't get his time. This guy didn't get his time,
and people were mad. You know, Doug, I believe, was saying, hey,
(40:38):
Kurs got to do what he's got to do. People
were mad that NBA players weren't getting their minutes. We're
talking flag football, much like the NBA when they had
to pick these superstars. What is it five players on
flag football? How are you going to narrow it down
when all these guys are showing interest? Are you gonna
(40:59):
have like preliminary tryouts? Wow, you're not gonna hold a
roster like an NFL roster. Yo Cayleb Williams might show interest,
but they may have be like, now we're good Fox
Sports Radio Nation Legends or the pros the current pros?
Which one sounds cooler to you? And speaking of the Olympics,
another story, I just want to know your answer.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
Rich.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Speaking of the Olympics, Carmelo Anthony said this week via
Basket News that he wouldn't trade his three gold medals
for an NBA ring bs And that's probably why so
many people want to sit on that podium and flag football.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
They're like, I want my goal.
Speaker 3 (41:33):
It's it's beautiful to represent your country in the games.
I'm just saying, an NBA championship, a super Bowl, all
the stuff is way harder to win. But the one
Olympic page is bigger than a league in the USA.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
That's fair.
Speaker 3 (41:47):
Listen, you could argue both. Uh, maybe we'll pick it
up tomorrow. Thank you DP for letting us fill in
until next time. Ariba dereci baby you in the Promise Land.
Thank you everybody.

(02:08):
Now every Thursday we throw it back old school in
fifty hits. Throw it back on a Thursday reminiscent while
he amos passed away. You know, back in the day
when you were a kid man. That was a big story.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
This guy. I think he invested.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
He got a twenty five thousand dollars bank loan and
he banked it on his cookies. He then became famous
Amos and it was a household name and it was
putting every kid's lunchbox around the world. He passed away
at eighty eight in his home in Hawaii, complications with dementia.
Speaker 2 (02:38):
So again it's sad. Yeah, you know, because I'm on
Shark Tank. Yeah, you know what, Danny, what was he
selling a new.
Speaker 4 (02:44):
Cook Yeah, it was a Hawaiian cookie he did. He
was trying to rebound, and none of the sharks were
interested in investing me because they thought he They're like,
you're the guy, you're the product, you're the name in
the face, so they didn't want to go with something
brand new with him.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, he was a recognizable They're like, yeah, we know
you all the Amos. What you did was incredible. He
had that hat, he always had like a.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Hawaiian shirt on.
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Yeah, Cuban and them, they were like in awe of
him because they knew his story.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
He was the guy, and he passed away, and.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
It just got us thinking about your favorite lunch botch,
lunch box snacks. Growing up as the kiddies go back
to school. Our kids out here in La already back
to school. Yeah, East Coast does it right after Labor Day.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
But I know Florida's back to school.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
And I know that because I saw one of my buddies,
like you know, his kids on the front stoop first.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Day of fourth grade. Like, sorry, you had to see that.
Speaker 3 (03:35):
You're gonna start seeing all those But you know what,
Danny better than people fight about politics on facebookch what
comes to mind? Maybe it's a forgotten one. Let's unlock
some memories. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox eight
seven seven ninety nine on Foxer Hit us Up at
Covino and Rench at Fox Sports Radio. It's extra sad too,
because again, we remember this dude because he was the face.
He was amous, famous amis, even though he sold the company.
(03:56):
And it does make you think, like kids growing up
when they see those cookies, they're gonn.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Like he was a real guy.
Speaker 3 (04:02):
And it's kind of like like if you have kids now,
some of us were old enough to remember that Orble
Reddenbacher was a real dude. He wasn't he shut the
popcorn guy in the commercials.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
I haven't even rid about it. I mean, some of
us are old enough.
Speaker 3 (04:16):
I feel like, uh, some of us are enough to
think that, Hey, the Quaker Oats guy was a real dude.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
He was next. You're gonna tell me Colonel Sanders was second.
Speaker 3 (04:27):
No, no, but that's my point, right, Colonel Sanders was
a real guy. He was in the commercials. Orble Reddenbacher,
real guy. He was in the commercials.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
He was still alive. No he's not.
Speaker 3 (04:36):
He was perfecting his popcorn famous amus real guy. Kids
are gonna be like, oh, I thought that was just
a brand, Like no, no, no, we were alive to
see this dude and he passed away. Dave Thomas, real guy,
real daughter Wendy. Right, yeah, of course, so he's one
of those dudes and we'll be remembered for his cookies.
What comes to mind, because for me, as an eighties kid,
(04:58):
I think there's a number one Steve Harvey answer on
the board confirmed.
Speaker 2 (05:03):
By the way that Steve Harvey's flat top was fake. Yeah,
oh yeah, it's all over social media. Look at that.
So if you're asking what the favorite lunch box treat.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
Is, before you before you get to that rich. Can
I start with your favorite lunch boxes as a kid? Yeah?
Did you have a box or a bag? Did you
have a metal lunchbox or a plastic one?
Speaker 2 (05:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:22):
A sweet thermist man. I grew up in the eighties,
so you had like a Transformer or a he Man lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
I eighteen or something. I had Danny.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
I transitioned, you had to have a trapper keeper in
a sweet lunch box. When I say that, I don't
mean I don't mean a Caitlyn Jenner style. I transitioned
from the metal lunchbox to the plastic Who'd you have,
Sepulteur of.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Noly? You're right in kindergarten. Some of us still had
the metal one.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
If you're if you're roughly forty ish, you started with
the metal lunchbox and then like Scooby Doers, and then
in the early nineties it was like now they were plastic.
I had a hul Cogan Wrestling Superstar lunchbox. Brother brother,
I had an ol lunch box I had. I had
a Mister T eighteen.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I had that one to the red one and Mister
T's flexing on the front.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Did you use the thermos? Did anyone you use the thermos,
we'd always lose the top lunchboxes? Did you guys have
one every year?
Speaker 4 (06:21):
You guys have seen that meme where there's two aisles
in the store all of the different characters of lunchboxes.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
Yes, but what would you fill those with? Yeah, boys,
that's the question. That's a good question. Daddy, g who
was on your lunchbox?
Speaker 2 (06:34):
It is that?
Speaker 4 (06:36):
And then these treats. A lot of times it was
a surprise. You didn't see your mom or your dad
packed the lunch. So when it was time to open
it up, that's when you saw if you had.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
A treat'd be also probably I guess mom and dad
were busy last night. They gave you a skimpy lunch,
you know, tortilla with peanut butter. Like, what is this tortilla?
You know, if you want to, if you want to
really unlock some memories, just google image what you think
you remember your lunchbox to be and you'll be like,
oh my god, that's the one that's that will.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
Always make you feel a little nostalgic. Right, would you
have to pay?
Speaker 6 (07:11):
You?
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Paper bagged?
Speaker 3 (07:12):
It?
Speaker 2 (07:12):
Paper bagged?
Speaker 3 (07:13):
You know it's different? Now, uh, now you you rock
the paper bag. That's that's the way to go.
Speaker 7 (07:19):
I don't know if you like, mama'd be like you
ain't bring you back home, Yo, Joe, this is no joke.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
Cavino tell me his daughter's school kids are like doing
Uber eats at lunchtime, like they get they getting deliveries.
They actually stopped it this year. They're trying to stop
it this year again. COVID game changer. What used to
be the joke in the eighties of Spiccola ordering pizza
to the classroom became the norm. Became the norm, Like
kids were just ordering Uber eats to the playground. Yeah,
(07:45):
Tyler ordered Chipotle. What we have Chipotle for Gregor's So
what did you fill the lunch box with? Let's hear
about your snack packs back to school, famous sam As
rest in p Those cookies were good, man, But I
loved the I love the lunchtime Saggi cookies that they sold. No, No,
(08:05):
I love the Linden's. Yeah, dude, dude took the words
right out of him. I'm mouth there the three pack
of chocolate chip Linden Cookies and Linden look it up
and you'd be like, oh, yeah, that is a lunchtime
true Danny g look up Linden, but my dad would
remember that as a vendor. But the Cavino fortune. The
reason I was so spoiled, Joel is my dad ran
(08:27):
vending machines, a vending machine company growing up, and I'd
be his little helper, carrying cases of.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Soda with him everywhere he went.
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Cavino's dad was a bad vending guy. Like you would
hit the Yuhu button and chocolate cow would come here.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
He was that guy.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
You'd hit the Coca Cola button and RC color would
come to seagrums, you get Canada dry. It was that
sort of deal. But you know that's the business my
dad ran, so i'd roll with him. I used to
ride with the vending machine repairman and my dad would
always be selling out a famous amos, so I'd have
them all around the house and my dad would he
don't be eating the eating up the prophets, because I
(09:01):
would love famous amos and I would have those in
my lunchbox too. But I do think I have the
number one answer as an eighties kid. It's generational. Some
of these may be may have been forgotten. It's it's
also very subjective to you. So hey, let's let's share
some stories. Eight seventy seven ninety nine on Fox. I
don't think I'm gonna steal your answer, because I think
you're probably thinking different than me.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
I used to be so jealous of the kids.
Speaker 3 (09:27):
Oh boy, and listen, if you go to my house
right now, we have costco cases of them in the
garage because I got two little rugrats and we always
have kids over after after soccer or softball or t ball.
I'm the guy that always has the kids and the
people over my house. I have Capri Sons by the dozen.
But when I was a kid, I thought those were
(09:48):
for rich kids because my mom's like, no, no juice
in a pouch. I got SIPs, you remember, SIPs, nips, SIPs,
And I was always like, oh man, Caprice Sons must
be for the rich kids.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
They weren't.
Speaker 3 (10:00):
My mom just didn't buy them. And the and the
other one. You know what, I'm gonna save it. Let's
hear yours the phones, Let's hear it. I'm gonna steal
somebody's hands. I'm sorry, but the number one is an
eighties kid. Because it was a game changer. Kids would
be bringing little things of cheese and the wax. I
don't even know what they're called. You know, the cheese
and the wax. Kids would have their cheese doodles and
whatever it was available at the time. But when fruit
(10:22):
roll ups became a thing, that was the game change.
I think that was Danny's number one really, because a
lot of people probably think they've been around forever. They
came out in the eighties as far as I know,
because they were always a part of my child.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
They even had them in the produce section of the grocery.
But and they're kind of we were sold that they
were healthy, their fruit, right right, They weren't. They had
a lot of sugar packed in there.
Speaker 3 (10:43):
But dude, nose came out. You're like, you wrap them
around your finger, you take a bite at you lunchbox
game change for sugar.
Speaker 4 (10:50):
There were two items where I thought, oh, my mom
must have got a bonus on our last check when
there was a fruit roll up inside on lunchbox or
a hostess item. I don't know about you guys is
on the East coast, but here in southern California.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
It's big for us, okay, but hostess as well.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Did you guys have any of the wonder hostess outlets.
Of course we call the day old bread stores.
Speaker 2 (11:10):
Yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 3 (11:10):
They'd give you a discount. Can they be like almost expired.
Speaker 4 (11:13):
But my mom she would go there and we would
have like the hostess. Hey, talking about the hose.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Chocolate, the little white Yeah, Thursday, shout out to the whole.
Speaker 8 (11:23):
Hose here till Thursday. Oh look it's Thursday, all right,
Now go to the phones, Nicope. I want an answer
to Joel. You got to think about it. Let's talk
to I want to talk to Josh and Ohio.
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Josh and Ohio your favorite lunch box snacks and tribute
to famous Aamus who passed away eighty eight.
Speaker 9 (11:47):
Thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 10 (11:48):
Guys.
Speaker 9 (11:48):
I had a Master of the Universe lunchbox with Ecto
Core high in US.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
Oh dude, you just hit it.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
I had?
Speaker 2 (11:56):
How did I miss that?
Speaker 3 (11:56):
I definitely had a he Man lunchbox in the mix
somewhere Masters of These definitely had a he Man one,
without a doubt. But Ecto Cooler. You know, I think
if your kids are a little older than us in between,
then Ecto Cooler, I think became like Shrek because then
they just branded it with Shrek Green, the Green high Sea, Yeah,
the Green high Sea, which is always fun ecto cooler. Yeah,
that was great for sure, that's a great one. And
(12:18):
again to give a perspective, we're we're in our forties,
we act like we're in our you know, late twenties.
Well do you act like your fourteenth Yeah, exactly. Scott
is Oregon. What's up, Scott?
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Hey, Scott, we're taking my call.
Speaker 11 (12:33):
Hey, So, I'm fifty seven this month. And when I
was a little kid, and I mean like little, like
five or six, I remember distinctly my dad took me
to the Kentucky Fried Chicken in Albany, Oregon, and Colonel
Sanders was there.
Speaker 2 (12:48):
That's crazy, man, That isn't that cool?
Speaker 11 (12:51):
And I remember distinctly he looked exactly exactly like like
the pictures that you see of him. I mean the
string tie.
Speaker 3 (12:59):
By the way, I'm gonna blow your mind, Scott, Scott,
look at the look at the KFC logo, and this
will blow your mind forever. Colonel Sanders's his head in
the and the tie. The head and the tie. If
you look at the tie, it could look like arms
and legs, looks like his body, and it looks like
his body like a stick figure.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
Right.
Speaker 3 (13:19):
A lot of people, a lot of younger people think
that's his body, his goofy tie.
Speaker 2 (13:23):
That meme is messed with a lot of people.
Speaker 12 (13:25):
I know.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
Meeting Colonel Sanders, that's like meeting Aaron Judge today.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's that's like meeting Orable Reddenbacker and Caitlin Clark. Yeah,
let's say, how to doug and Boise.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
What's up? Doug Hey, doug Hey, guys.
Speaker 6 (13:39):
So for me, it was a dukes of hazard lunchbox. Yeah,
and butterscotch pudding cup with the foil lid.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Dude, when my when my mom splurge for the Swiss Miss,
the Swiss miss pudding cups that remember they had the
vanilla Chalco and.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
The oh you get that swirl Swiss. Oh Mom, you
shouldn't have.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
A little a little uh, a little more. My brother
and sister style, they're like five years younger. My siblings
are in their late thirties now. Yeah, so they were
more kids.
Speaker 2 (14:13):
Of the nineties.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
I'm giving away a big answer here, I know, but
it starts with a G. Right, No, then I got one.
My siblings would love to house some dunk arouse.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, that's a big answer. Don't had to come back
and dunk a ruse.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
I always thought it was interesting because it it taught
a kid responsibility.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
And I'll explain.
Speaker 3 (14:36):
Because you had all your little cookies and you just
had that little bit of cream in the cover.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
You learned how to.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
Ration because if you're the with the what was the
one cheese and crackers the craft ones? Yeah, because if
you used a red plastic stick, if you used all
the cheese or all the dunk a roof frosting on
the first two, then you would just have cookies left.
It's like when you have cereal with marshmallows. You gotta
he's just eating all the marshmallows because then you just
have bunk cereal left all right, now again your phone calls.
(15:05):
Don't want to take away all the answers. Dougle was
a good one too. If you had younger siblings. Here
was the the tough part about being an older sibling.
You'd want to eat all their little kids snacks.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah you know what I mean, you would.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
I was, and they had SIPs and what were those
kool aid ones too, with the plastic twist off things?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah, of course, those plastic key kool Aid drinks. You'd
be housing those.
Speaker 3 (15:29):
Well, you and I have talked about this before as well.
If you're living that dad life, you'd probably be five
pounds slimmer if you didn't have kids, because you'll eat
all the leftovers out of their lunchbox. So if your kids,
you know, leave their snacks around for sure. Yeah, let's
talk to Marco in La. What's up, Marco, No problem.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
My parents know.
Speaker 12 (15:52):
They're making us so't They weren't much for snacks, so
they would just kind of wrap up burrito egg burta
and wrap it in a boil, put it in my lunch.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
So the guy before but you had a duque to
too many burritos, he does have the duquet of hazard.
Speaker 3 (16:15):
You know what's funny about that is our buddy Sebastian Man.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Of Scalco, I just was thinking the same thing.
Speaker 3 (16:20):
He often talks about, how you know, look, we all
have immigrant grandparents, and my mom's from Mexico, and it's
always the foreign kid. He said, he would come in
with like tupperware of like kids would have like very
americanized sandwiches and pbjs.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
He come in with the ball of lasagna. Sebastian. What's
for lunch? He'd have, Uh, he'd have Penny vodka.
Speaker 3 (16:41):
Yeah, you'd have spaghetti meatballs why and he would have that.
And you know, that's how it was. I remember the
other some kids would come in, they'd have last.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Night's left over.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Heat it up in the teachers lounge exactly, so he
just took right there. Really, that's how you rolled whatever
you had, like left.
Speaker 2 (16:59):
Over from night before.
Speaker 7 (17:00):
Whatever Mama decided, split up the whole dinner for all
five of us.
Speaker 3 (17:06):
You know how you're just begging for your kids to
eat anything, because the worst feeling is when your you
and your wife pack your kids lunch and they come
home and you're like, you didn't even touch your lunch.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
Yeah, I know it happens a lot, but I'm like,
what did you eat today, buddy?
Speaker 3 (17:18):
My wife will do this now, and at first I'm like, hey,
that's weird, but they eat them. My wife will make
like Dino nuggets in the morning, they're hot, she'll put
them in his lunchbox and I guess they stay warm enough.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
My kid'll eat. He wants to eat cold.
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Chicken nuggets more than a sandwich. Wow, kids love chicken nuggets.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
They do. They really do.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
So I'm gonna say it because I don't think anyone
has it here. But my number two answer on the board,
I said foot roll MPs. I would say a good
ten years, maybe plus more. When my siblings were packing
their little lunch box, their little spongebomb with lunchboxes, they're
rugrat lunchboxes.
Speaker 2 (17:58):
Gushers was a game change.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
You think Cushers the Cops era.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I was you brought up fruit roll up.
Speaker 2 (18:07):
In my mind immediately went to Gusher's.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
And I was older, right, But if I saw those
bad boys lying around, guess what my siblings had no
more gushes.
Speaker 13 (18:15):
I don't know if you ever saw the commercials, but
don't you remember the commercials where their head would turn
into the fruit and everyone's like, oh, be careful, man,
you can't don't eat the blue one.
Speaker 6 (18:26):
I do.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
There's a whole viral, I guess, movement, a whole trend
of how weird those commercials were at that time if
you look it up, promoting all these kids snacks and
things of the late eighties, early nineties. So again famous
name has passed away, your favorite lunchbox snacks.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
Who else we got? Let's go to Ben in Wisconsin.
What's up Ben?
Speaker 12 (18:48):
Hey there, how are you guys doing? Thanks very much
for taking my call.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Hell yeah, man, what's up?
Speaker 6 (18:53):
Hey?
Speaker 12 (18:53):
I'm driving around, just got my three boys haircuts today.
We're getting ready for school. So this is a fantastic topic.
But I had an entire Drike's back lunch bottles. Yeah,
that just takes me way back. I also had a
dukes of Hazard but man, those were just fun to
just interchange. But my favorite, though, the fruit roll ups
is a good one. But fun fruits, you guys, remember
(19:13):
those things, those little things that look like, you know,
almost like boters that you would eat, but they were
like great flavored or orange.
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I want to see the packaging because I think I
know what you're talking about.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
Fun fruit.
Speaker 3 (19:22):
Also, look up, do you remember fruit wrinkles? Does anyone
remember fruit wrinkles? That's what you have in your underroost
right right now? Rich kept them for a good one.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
It was.
Speaker 4 (19:36):
Was there anything worse when somebody gave you the little
red box of raisins? Oh?
Speaker 2 (19:41):
Thanks?
Speaker 4 (19:42):
Thanks, yeah, thanks Grandma for packing the lunch. Thanks sun made.
Yeah wait, hold on, fun fruits is what he said, right, Yeah,
totally those were made by sun kissed. Those were great. Yeah,
I like those a lot. I remember those.
Speaker 3 (19:54):
You know, would you would you call it? You know
how for every transform a gobots? Would you call fruit
by the foot the weaker fruit?
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Roll up?
Speaker 3 (20:04):
What do you admire? Fruit by the foot? That's what
I did. Maybe it was healthier or something.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
I don't know. Fruit by the foot I.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
Was still legitimb was rolled up and you'd pulled off
the wax paper.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Let's take John for now than the rest of your
phone calls.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
Man, and we will talk some more nfl not all
snacks all day, don't worry, but having fun with this,
a little reminiscing in honor of famous amos.
Speaker 2 (20:25):
What's up John and Florida?
Speaker 9 (20:26):
Hey guys, great show, great topic. I was just telling
him I think we're like sitting in my basement talking
back in the eighties. My lunchbox was already taken. Empires
strikes back. It was my number one. But then my
second one was How with the Duck? I had a
How with the Duck?
Speaker 2 (20:43):
One best movie of all time?
Speaker 9 (20:46):
Yeah, best movie all time? How with the Duck? And
the snack that we only got. We always wanted hostess,
but we always got the knock off Drake's and it
was the Devil Dog. We always wanted to Hostess Cupcake,
but we never got that. We always got the Devil
Dog or the coffee Cake two pack. And a funny
thing about Famous Name is he made a cameo appearance
(21:09):

So yeah, he was on the Office.

could feel it stuck to the roof of my mouth.
Right you're search around for that carton of chocolate milk
in your in your cafeteria because you need something to
watch that bad boy.

Speaker 10 (23:32):
You That's why I'm glad that you guys got that
we week we dy gig on the blow tours. Finally
everywhere man, so America gets Cabino and Rich trying bro Hey,
So back to the subject. I had one Like when
I was a wee tot, my lunchbox was the Fox
(23:53):
and the Hound and I loved that thing.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
Man, it's a great pill. I love that till you.
Speaker 14 (24:01):
Broke the thermis.
Speaker 9 (24:02):
Right after you dropped that.
Speaker 14 (24:04):
Thermids No, hey, that stuff you would use the thermis
after the broken glass, that thing would cool off within
like twenty minutes.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
It sucked.
Speaker 2 (24:17):
By the way, Fox and the Hound very underrated. Man
that story. I'll make you cry, make you shed one.
Thank you, Manuell. By the way, Danny, did you get
my mom on the phone? I sure did.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
My favorite one of my favorite parents of the crew
because she's a diehard Raider film.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
Oh yeah, she actually named his brother Jimmy after Jim Plunkett.
I think we lost my mom. Yeah, let's she hung up.
Your mom hung up on you, rich Richie.
Speaker 2 (24:40):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
I'll get her right right, I get her back because
I wrote down because earlier in the show, we were
saying a great way to figure out who's popular is
to do the mom test. Ask your mom does she
know this athlete? If your mom knows them, they're a
household name. And we were saying, other than Aaron Judge,
are there any real household name.
Speaker 2 (25:01):
In the world of baseball?
Speaker 7 (25:02):
If your mom is like my mom, she just hung
up to answer the other line. She just didn't know, Richie,
your sister was calling. She's closing on her house this week.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
You know, my mom just realized. Yesterday.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
By the way, I was showing her this like new
Yankee watch. Then I got to see this a little
white Yankee original green Brook. It's like a picture of it.
I'm like, look, I'm wearing the watch. I'm like, take
a look. She's like I will. I'm like, no, I
sent it to you.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Look.
Speaker 3 (25:30):
She's like I will.
Speaker 4 (25:32):
I'm like, this is total parents with technology. But I
called her back right now. It went to her voicemails.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Hung up.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
I'm going to my mom and no, but look at it.
You could look at the picture I sent you. We're
on the phone. She's like, I'll look at it later.
I'm like, mom, she's like, it's nazy, gonna.
Speaker 2 (25:48):
Hang up if I look at it. I'm like, no,
what are you talking about. They're the worst. They are
the worst. Like no, it's not going to hang up.
Speaker 3 (25:56):
Hang up, that's it, they think, And then they hang
up when you don't want him to hang up.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
My mother has learned FaceTime.
Speaker 3 (26:02):
Maybe maybe Rich's mom being on the phone wasn't a
good idea anyway, because she would have called Rich out
for all his weak lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
I tracked her down like a bill collector. I remember
you had the Pound puppies. I remember you had Rainbow Bright. Oh,
I'm Richie loved the Smurfs.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Let me ask her my mom, Mary Anne, Hi, Mom,
Hey you're on the air, so behave. And Covino and
I were talking about old school lunchboxes. Do you remember
what lunchboxes I had as a kid.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
I only remember one, Ninja Turtles. Ninja Turtles.
Speaker 3 (26:38):
She confused me. My brother probably had. My mom does
that all the time. And I'm like, that wasn't me,
that was my stupid brother, My mom, Oh, it's definitely
Jimmy Mom. I'm gonna ask you some uh, some baseball players.
You tell me if you know them, Okay.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Yeah, but I just want to tell you one thing.
Speaker 14 (26:57):
Tell Danny g I'm going to the Raven Raiders game
September sixteenth.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
Why. My mom's a big Raiders fan, as you know.
Speaker 4 (27:07):
Yeah, I heard that you named Rich's brother after Jim Plunkett.
Speaker 14 (27:11):
Yes, I did.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Good woman. It's a little weird. Should be in the
Hall of Fame, right mom?
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yes he is.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
No, No he's not. He should be. No, he's in
her hall of fame. He's rich adopted. I was named
after Richard Simmons. No, I'm kidding. Oh so all right,
let me ask you about do you know who Aaron judges.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
Yes, he hit his three sports knowledge?
Speaker 2 (27:40):
Mom, do you know who Mookie Bets is? MOOKI who
Mookie Betts?
Speaker 10 (27:47):
No, I only know Moki Wilson.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
Okay, doesn't Okay, so Mookie Betts. I'm surprised I would
be Wilson around the corner.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
Mom. You're proving a point though, is that you know
you can name a ton of football players, but by
small doesn't have big stars.
Speaker 2 (28:01):
Do you know who? Do you know who is?
Speaker 3 (28:05):
No?
Speaker 7 (28:06):
Wow?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Wow? Crazy? That's that's you know, But.
Speaker 14 (28:10):
I haven't been really following the nets.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That's fine? Is this is just seeing?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Yeah, but hey look at that. But you could probably
like if I were to name, you know who.
Speaker 2 (28:21):
Russell Wilson is, Yes, he is quarterback?
Speaker 3 (28:25):
This proves the point point. NFL, NBA they create stars.
The MLB not so much.
Speaker 10 (28:34):
Oh god, what is it? The Broncos he was, No,
he was on the Broncos.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
Now he's on the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (28:42):
You got her going, Yeah, so you know, you know,
you know all you know Dak Prescott, you know Lamar Jackson,
you know all this. She knows Ga, Yes, I know
all the Raiders like what they Yeah, he.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Had the worst nickname. Mom, you know they used to call.
Speaker 4 (29:00):
Do you think Gardner Minshew? You think Minshew is going
to have a good season.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
I'm being a raid of fans so like it's going
to show my age, like fifty years wow. Wow.
Speaker 3 (29:12):
By the way, my mom is convinced she doesn't think
she has an East Coast accent.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Yes, hey, Mom, have a great day. I love you,
I love you. Go raiders for you and Danny G's sake.
Speaker 4 (29:23):
You're awesome. Have a fun raider season.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Maybe I can make you when I come here Thanksgiving?
You want to hang with Danny G. We'll go have
some wings and watch the rain. Can you say Ritchie
for us one time?
Speaker 6 (29:38):
What? Like?
Speaker 4 (29:39):
Ye yell at Richie like as if he was in
trouble at the house.
Speaker 1 (29:44):
He's never in trouble.
Speaker 2 (29:47):
I was a good kid. Say I was a good kid, Ritchie.
I love you, Mom. Thank you. By the way, that's
a that's Marianne, everybody.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
I just figured we do the mom test, if you know,
and if you just joined us, people were like, are
they interviewing Edith correct?
Speaker 2 (30:00):
What's going on? I don't know. Rich is really a
real child.
Speaker 3 (30:07):
And by the way, Michael Rus's place, he had an
Archie Bunker lunchbox.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
It brought up another silly question off the air. We
were talking about how you know all these lunchboxes and
treats we had. Yeah, do you remember because famous Am
has passed, Yeah, do you remember the last? Like I
would say, the last you were the last person to
think something was cool and your friends called out. Mike
was saying how he had a sleepover with some of
his little buddies and it was Saturday morning. He's like, hey, guys,
(30:33):
we'll trust the Smurfs, and they were like Mike, like, Smurfs,
you nerd, We're waiting. We're waiting for the Gladiators to start. Like, Mike,
we're twelve. We don't like the Smurfs anymore. Yeah, we're
into American battery. It is cool stuff. Smurf boy were
saying that in middle school and high school, she was
still like yeah, Batstreet Boys and all her friends like
we're off that.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
Yeah, there was always something right like yeah, like you
were like, what's uh.
Speaker 12 (30:58):
It was?
Speaker 3 (30:58):
It was always probably some cheesey cartoon or something you
watch as a kid or collected. Yeah, you know, like,
oh he still plays with thundercuts. Yeah what he's a
nerd nerdy. Thank you guys for hanging Covino on Rich
A lot of fun on the Dan Patrick hat trick. Now,
get this Colin Kaepernick. Every time we bring him up,
Danny and she's like, oh man, what a waste of breath?
Speaker 4 (31:22):
Right, I just feel like it's whenever you bring up
in Aaron Rodgers' topic. Also like there's I feel like
thousands and thousands of eyes are rolling as you know,
they're listening to radio.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
He might be like the express pro pro of the
week or something, because he's in the headlines all week
for three different things. Now, the first story I saw was,
or one of the first is that he wants back
in in the NFL and he's keeping in shape still, Like,
oh wow, I thought we were past that because we
(31:53):
barely heard that last year. Last year was one of
the first years I think we didn't hear any whisper
of well callan Kaepernick's still available. Yeah, I thought that
ship had sailed myself and that and that happened this week.
Like he's still thinking he's gonna play. Has been eight
plus years or whatever. I mean, it's since the forty
nine ers, you know, almost won the super Bowl against
(32:16):
the Ravens in New Orleans. That was twenty thirteen, the
twenty twelve twenty thirteen season, so it's over a decade
since Kap was in the Super Bowl. So I thought
that ship would sailed. That was story one, Yes, Story
two was hey, you know what, Hey, maybe if he
doesn't play. He's saying, I do want to play on
that flag football team in the Olympics. When this happens,
(32:36):
he wants to play, So he wants to throw his
hat in that one too. What type of hatfits on
that hair?
Speaker 2 (32:41):
Though? A noggin boss?
Speaker 4 (32:45):
Good luck beating out Caleb Williams.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
Right, and then rich.
Speaker 3 (32:48):
The most recent story is Harbaugh saying that he offered
him a job to coach, be part of the staff.
Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yeah, he says he'd be a.
Speaker 3 (32:56):
Tremendous coach if that's the path he chose. But the offers,
and I think Kaepernick's considering it, and for me, it's
like a no brain.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
It's the move.
Speaker 3 (33:08):
Him and Harbaugh went to the Super Bowl together, clearly
to have a chemistry, and clearly Harbaugh is the type
of guy that he respects as a mutual respect. I
think if dude, Cap wants back in the league. I
think with Harbaugh is the right is the right move
because the Chargers the trajectory's only up right. They've been
disappointing for years. I think it's also part of their
new identity.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
If he would have.
Speaker 3 (33:29):
Joined, Harbaugh says, if that was ever the path he
was to take, I think that would be tremendous. And
I think the story was that Kaepernick's on vacation. He
showed interest but said something like, yeah, you know what,
I'm gonna get back to you. I'm gonna circle back
when he when he gets home. But it's a strong possibility.
I couldn't agree with you more rich. This is the angle,
(33:51):
this is the offer you want back in the league. Yo,
Look man, you're older now, this is it.
Speaker 12 (33:56):
This is it.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
Run with it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (33:58):
Now reheadlines for Colin Kaepernick. Wish them the best. But
speaking of flag football, I also think this is a
strong possibility. No, Kause' why unless you go the route
I think you're going, which is in four years when
flag football is in the Olympics, who do you want
(34:20):
on Team USA? That's the question. Guys like Tyreek Hill
are saying, I want in. Is that really the best route.
Taking these risks on these star players, they turn an
ankle and flag football. Danny mentioned that Caleb Williams once
an Caleb Williams said it on hard Knocks or would
you say, yeah, I like to see Colin Kaepernick. I
(34:41):
like to see Teo o Jo Sinko, those guys who
were Peyton Manning, those guys who are still maybe in
shape and young enough to compete and maybe win. What
would be more fun the legends are current day pros.
Think about that. It's a good question because we're saying
the legends may be just as cool. Well, listen, it's
gonna be flag football in the twenty twenty eight Olympics
(35:03):
is gonna be like the Dream Team in ninety two.
The competition is not even close to being there. This
is not like the twenty twenty four US men's basketball
team where Serbia, France, other places I've caught up. Whoever
represents the USA will win in astronomical fashion. So instead
of putting Tyreek and Caleb and the McCaffrey, who would
(35:25):
you want when it comes to older, maybe retired stars
to represent the US. We'll take your feedback and calls.

(36:34):
But Kaepernick got me thinking all let's talk of flag
football got me thinking. He said he wanted in everybody's
saying they want in. Caleb Williams this week on Hard
Knocks wanted in. And it becomes an interesting question because
didn't we say yesterday that they're gonna make this into
(36:55):
the contracts moving forward.
Speaker 2 (36:57):
Ye.
Speaker 4 (36:58):
Yeah, it's gonna be a player's unit an issue right now.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
So a player's union issue where in order to play
flag football, remember today's current player, that's a high risk.
That's a high risk to say, yeah, we're gonna let
you guys play their investments Tyreek Hill major investment they
want in, they want to play. Teams are fighting and
deciding do I want to play or pay Brandon Ayuk?
(37:23):
What's Jamar Chase going to get? What do those numbers
look for? Like a VARs CD lamb Once Jerry Jones
gets moving on this. If you're gonna pay guys thirty
plus million dollars to play the wide receiver position and
your quarterbacks are making fifty sixty million dollars before you
know it, do you want them playing flag football in
the Olympics. Well, Peter O'Reilly of the NFL is currently
(37:46):
working with players with the Players Union for x and
current players to play in the Olympics. Now, is that
the ultimate goal too, like would you want to see
X and current maybe just x y guys who are
still in shape, Like what's it's more fun? Or do
you want to see the new guys?
Speaker 4 (38:02):
Well mixture? And it would make the most sense because
if you think of the other countries, they're probably gonna
have all their younger, most talented athletes. If you're saying,
like last segment, you said Peyton Manning at QB, maybe
well you would need a younger receiver, younger receivers in
running backs with him?
Speaker 2 (38:17):
That would you know what? That would be the coolest
thing I think about it.
Speaker 3 (38:21):
I have a Tom Brady out there, like an all
time quarter Yeah, the Tyreek kill or Christian McCaffrey.
Speaker 2 (38:26):
Lukoy just looked up Tom Brady.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
Yeah, but you always look love Tom Brady.
Speaker 2 (38:32):
That is true.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
I just looked up Tom Brady because I'm like, how
old is he going to be in twenty twenty eight?
And the answer in twenty twenty eight tom Brady is
going to be it is fifty one, right, he's.
Speaker 2 (38:46):
He's also in great shape.
Speaker 3 (38:48):
But but what if you have fifty Just think about it,
Like I said before, if you're gonna blow out every
king in mind. Like I said before, I'll say it again.
What Team USA in flag football will do in twenty
twenty eight to other teams will be like what the
ninety two Dream Team did in basketball. The world's gonna
need another couple decades to catch up. The game is
(39:09):
just starting to spread to Germany. They do the games
in London, they do the games in Mexico City. The
international layer in aspect of the NFL is relatively new.
Do you want the legends, the pros, the risk of
the current pros or the mix which they're trying to
again get approval for as we speak. I don't think
it's crazy to say I think the legends just as cool, though, Man,
(39:31):
I get I think that's even cooler, because, yeah, fast
forward four years. Who's going to be the elite guys
we've already named. Guys are gonna be way past their prime,
Like if it would have happened today, maybe a guy
like T's too old four years of that too, is
not playing flag football in the Olympics. But I'm saying
those dudes who could probably like Cam Newton or something
like that, you know what I mean, The guys who
(39:52):
are still gonna have their legs and still competing and
there's no risk. Really, Tom and Gronky Tommy and Gronky Rocky.
What would you want to see if and when that happens,
Because then again you're hearing all these names saying, you know,
I want in, and they're trying to make these Oh
I got these clauses happened in the contract.
Speaker 2 (40:12):
I got another layer to your your Sunday football dip, sure.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Beans six layers. Here, here's the other layer. We had
people arguing on this network. I mean every day I
felt like Doug Gottlieb was arguing with someone about Tatum
didn't get his time. This guy didn't get his time,
and people were mad. You know, Doug, I believe, was saying, hey,
(40:38):
Kurs got to do what he's got to do. People
were mad that NBA players weren't getting their minutes. We're
talking flag football, much like the NBA when they had
to pick these superstars. What is it five players on
flag football? How are you going to narrow it down
when all these guys are showing interest? Are you gonna
(40:59):
have like preliminary tryouts? Wow, you're not gonna hold a
roster like an NFL roster. Yo Cayleb Williams might show interest,
but they may have be like, now we're good Fox
Sports Radio Nation Legends or the pros the current pros?
Which one sounds cooler to you? And speaking of the Olympics,
another story, I just want to know your answer.
Speaker 2 (41:17):
Rich.
Speaker 3 (41:18):
Speaking of the Olympics, Carmelo Anthony said this week via
Basket News that he wouldn't trade his three gold medals
for an NBA ring bs And that's probably why so
many people want to sit on that podium and flag football.
Speaker 2 (41:31):
They're like, I want my goal.
Speaker 3 (41:33):
It's it's beautiful to represent your country in the games.
I'm just saying, an NBA championship, a super Bowl, all
the stuff is way harder to win. But the one
Olympic page is bigger than a league in the USA.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
That's fair.
Speaker 3 (41:47):
Listen, you could argue both. Uh, maybe we'll pick it
up tomorrow. Thank you DP for letting us fill in
until next time. Ariba dereci baby you in the Promise Land.
Thank you everybody.
