We're gonna talk workplace regrets, We're gonna talk some NFL,
and I'm gonna talk some life life generation gaps. In fact, yeah,
there's a there's a great story. But I do want
to wish everyone in Seattle a happy day. You know what,
what do you think happened fifty years ago today? I
gave you a big hint already fifty years ago today,
(02:13):
fifty years ago today in Seattle. Yeah, fifty years ago. Five, Oh,
I think Seattle. I think nineteen seventy four, the Seahawks,
I think the Grange Gerard. That wasn't fifty years ago.
Unless we're getting really old, I don't know. Tell me, yeah,
vout it was fifty years ago, no wins. Now on
(02:34):
this day was when the NFL gave Seattle the thumbs
up that the Seahawks are happening. Today was the day
the official approval of the Seattle Seahawks, the anniversary of
when Ken Griffy Junior saved baseball. Yeah that was what
ninety five? Yeah, ninety five.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
So anyway, thank you guys for being here, thank you
for loving the show. Thanks for all the feedback at
Covino and rich. So there was a story that I
saw early this morning, and honestly I thought it was
like a nothing story, and as the day went on
it went sort of viral and a lot of people
are talking about it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Now.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
It hits me in the court of zone because I
feel like I'm at that range, that age, that point
in life, that coming to age where I ask myself
a lot about do you stay in your lane or
do you make adjustments to stay relevant. We always say
relevance is a choice, correct, and I think there's a
(03:33):
middle ground where it's probably a little above right. You
got to stay in your lane. Sometimes you don't want
to be forced out of the club. You gotta know
when to say when you don't want to be the
old guy.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
You don't want to be the old guys. They don't
want to be the guy rocking before your years.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
But you also don't want to be the guy who's
the last new music you listen to is pearl Jam
and you're rocking carpenter jeans. So here's the story, and
it sort of ties into sports to explain. Hot ninety
seven does something called the Summer Jam, the big Summer Show.
Every city has their own version of this. Hot ninety
(04:09):
seven Summer Jam featured a lot of new artists like
Dojah Cat, Don't Do That Again, Doja Cat, Sexy Red,
whoever the hell that is? I honestly don't know. That's okay?
Is that Ed Scheeron's new name? Yes, you know, a
lot of new acts. And they welcomed method Man and
(04:32):
Redman to the stage. Emmy thchod Man.
Speaker 1 (04:37):
Where do we f you at?
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Decal So, Method Man's doing his thing, Red Man again,
legends that we grew up with right, Wu Tang Clan,
Method Man. I love Method Man. I love Wu Tang Clan.
I learned yesterday. I always thought it was you don't
want to f with Wu Tang. Also Tommy Fam, you
(04:58):
don't want to Yeah, you don't want to mess with
Tommy Fam. Do nothing to f with.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
So Method Man legend, Red Man Legend, Method Man from
the slums of Shahlin Woo Tang, Killer Bleeze were on
a swamp. Right Method Man and Redman. They made movies
Redman from New Jersey. So grew up loving these guys breaks,
that's right. And they perform and nobody's vibing to their music.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Nobody's vibing. Nobody booze them. Let me make that clear.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
But you see the shot from the crowd and no
one's dancing, no one's cheering. It's like crickets and they're
playing all their hits and they're in unison. They're dancing,
they're rapping, they're trying to get everybody involved and nobody cares.
Speaker 4 (05:52):
When they do this at clubs and arenas, by the way,
the places go nuts, Like you know, what I'm saying, So.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Like nuts like Trump but UFC nuts. Yeah, Like the
crowd goes wild.
Speaker 4 (06:03):
Because it's a it's a little bit of an older
crowd obviously, right.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
But again, this is the hot ninety seventh Summer Jam.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Even teenagers at the Summer Jam.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
So it's sort of a deflating feeling, right, And it's
deflating to me as a fan of these guys growing up,
because it's a reflection of where we are a little bit.
A lot of people listening, they're like, what come on,
that's still cool? No, And that's how we feel about
Eminem this week. There's a big generation gap about the
conversation about Eminem because we're like, yo, that new Eminem slack.
(06:32):
We talked about the eminem yesterday, who deny who's breaking records?
The songs streaming number one everywhere. But a young woman
like Mary who works here two probably twenty two years old,
she's like, yeah, he's washed, an old, tired geezer rap.
I keep hearing that on social media, but the numbers
(06:52):
prove different because everybody's.
Speaker 1 (06:54):
Listening to it.
Speaker 2 (06:55):
But there's a lot of young people that are saying, yeah,
it's whack because they're used to a different style of
mumble rap, I guess or whatever is good now.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
They don't like Eminem.
Speaker 5 (07:06):
There's always a weird selection about what gets retro, Like
you're talking about these same zoomers. A lot of them
thanks them new metal, how to revival new metal? Which
I I mean, I liked new Metal, but I know
a lot of people of our generation thing that's that's corny.
Nobody likes new metal, nobody likes s limp biscuits. Nobody
warned corn but somehow that's had the revival that is
(07:28):
that is adored.
Speaker 1 (07:29):
Wu Tang and Eminem are.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Not and the proof is here. So method Man and
Redman performed, they're deflated, and Method Man goes to social
media after the show and he goes, not our crowd
at all, thanks again, New York, the whole Try State,
everybody that showed up to the event, plus PTE and Nebro.
I got love for you guys, but never again, he goes.
(07:53):
At this point, the generation gaps too wide, too wide
for me, hashtag never coming back. Now. I think he
handled it like a man, because he could have said
like an adult, like a mature adult, which is what
he is now. He could have said f you to
the crowd, like, Yo, what's wrong with you guys?
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Man?
Speaker 2 (08:12):
You know what's the matter. But he did his thing
and then he said, you know what, I'm done with this.
I'm never coming back. And this is the key part
of the story. The key part of the story is
at this point, the generation gap is too wide for me.
He's not saying I'm too old, He's saying there's too
much of a generation gap, too much of a difference.
(08:32):
There's a disconnect, and it's very large where it didn't
exist as much with us, Like we would have been
vibing a little bit to our parents' music for sure,
because they passed it on. Nobody vibe to method Man.
It's deflating. It's disheartening as sad. So we came up
with a theory based on eminem this week, based on
method Man this week. How does this tie into sports? Well,
(08:56):
it's simple. When you look at music, that generation gap
separates people, makes you feel like you're on an island
by yourself, like this is my music versus your music.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
Penn Island, and that's where you live, that's where you go. Yeah,
break music.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Separates people, where sports bring people together. A twenty two
year old could talk to a fifty two year old
about the Baltimore Ravens and become best of friends.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Very rare.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
You're gonna see a twenty year old and a fifty
year old talk about music and be like, yeah, we're
on the same page.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Sports brings people together.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
Music sort of points out our generational gaps the same
way method man's not connecting.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
So things get passed on, certain things don't. It's just
funny which ones it is. Like when I was going
to college, it was that divide with the boomer music.
You know, my dad talked NonStop about Beatles, but that
doesn't get passed on.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I think Beatles are corny as hell.
Speaker 2 (09:57):
You think the Beatles are corny as hell, then you should,
then you should stop this continent.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
But I'm just saying, you know what Cardy would think
of you. I wonder what Ringo star things are preferred.
But I'm just saying, you know what's cool.
Speaker 5 (10:08):
You know what's on everyone's posters in the college led Zeppelin.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
Not even let Zeppelin gets passed on. The Beatles do not.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Well, It's it's interesting too. Though you mentioned the Beatles.
The Rolling Stones are selling out stadiums, sixty five thousand
people are showing up to them because they're playing to
their crowd.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
It's also the realization.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Of staying in your lane and playing to your crowd
and trying to cater to people that aren't into you.
And that's what method Man and red Man have acknowledged here.
So again, it's humbling, too, isn't it. It's just very humbling.
Speaker 5 (10:41):
It's it's a matter of you don't get to decide
what gets passed on. The younger generation decides that for you,
and sometimes it just doesn't include you, and you have
no power over that. If you go out there and
start yelling at the young kids, that'll just make it worse.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
It's humbling, it's honest. It's a great reminder, it's reality.
It's all of those things. But here's what we're getting
at both sports and hip hop, or sports and music,
but mostly hip hop. These are young people games. They
really are where the industry will tell you when you're done.
But sports brings generations together and music separates them. And
(11:18):
the proof is there. Rich is absolutely right. I hear
it at the gym all the time. I or at
the barber shop. I'll see some old guy talking to
some young kid and they're chopping it up about football.
And the young people even respect the old school legends.
They'll rock their jerseys, they know the stats, they appreciate
the history. Sports brings generations together. Music method Man and
(11:42):
Red Men were given there all, and none of these
young kids were bopping to it music nowadays, unfortunately separates
and Danny g if you guys don't know, he built
his career in the hip hop world before he got
involved in sports. And you have a theory and you
blame the parents, Danny, some of it is on.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
The parents and some of it is on record companies
and owners of radio stations. Because the last big hip
hop radio station I programmed, the management, upper management wanted
me to take the classic songs like method Man and
Redman off my playlist and instead put new, brand new
music on more to get those promotional dollars from the
record company so it would save them money. So what
(12:24):
happened is classic hip hop got stripped off of a
lot of radio stations playlists over these past couple of decades.
And so it's hurt, you know, the kid's knowledge of
hip hop music.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Yeah, and you have some control and I do think
it's a parent's responsibility to pass on the story of
greatness in sports and in music. I bond a lot
with my kid over music, but I also introduced her
to a lot of that, and coincidentally, a lot of
that is new metal that you brought up, perfet because
(12:57):
for whatever reason, kids today do pick up on that.
They like System, they like Limp Biscuit, they like Lincoln Park.
Speaker 5 (13:05):
I don't know why, but again, it's not up to us. Like,
you can lead them to the stuff. You can show
them method Man all you want, but if they decide
they just don't like that, that's not up to you.
You can expose them all you want. I don't even
think it's a matter of knowledge. For some people out there,
it's just their choice, their preference. Like you can lead
them to the old classic hip hop, but if they
ultimately decide, yeah, this still just isn't for me. That's
(13:28):
not a failure of them not knowing, they just have
chosen something else. Okay, that's how time goes.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Replace the word knowledge, then maybe nostalgia because.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
If you grew up still just a drug, well.
Speaker 4 (13:38):
Listen, if you grew up with your parents being passionate
about method Man and Red Man and them teaching you
all about Brick City and how those two did their
Blackout album together and all that. And then those kids
heard that on radio stations and vibe to it. They'd
have a different history right now than what it is.
It went blank, it did Blackout. I always want to
(14:00):
be their parents.
Speaker 5 (14:01):
And I guess the foil to this is classic rock
formats because trust me, me, growing up with the rock,
I heard all the Rush, all the Journey, all the Boston.
That doesn't mean I liked that stuff.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
For if I grew up in Detroit rock city. Danny
g a West Coast guy, Cavino and Rich and Spot
were all from the East Coast. And again that's the
story today, and it's gone viral because it's very specific.
It's not that they're too old, it's the generation gap
is too wide. Yeah, they're older, we get that, we
acknowledge that, but it's the generation gap. The difference is
(14:33):
just too wide, the generation gap too wide for the
rap we grew up with to translate to the kids today.
And we saw it twice and that's why twice in
one week, and that's why we bring it up to
you with eminem and now with method Man and Redman
who got zero applause and zero enthusiasm and zero cheers
(14:54):
at Hot ninety seven Summer Jam.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
And it's sort of sad to see.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
What differentiates it from sports is that, for some reason,
there is a built in respect, yeah, in a young
sports fan for the older people. A young kid could
be like, I'll have Brock Pardy, but they'll acknowledge Joe
Montana and Steve Young. Some Dolphins fan will be like
Dann Marina was probably the best. Some little kid they
(15:18):
never even watched them. You talk about the NBA, I mean,
can we talk about Michael Jordan Moore for a god
that hasn't played in thirty years, you know, twenty something years?
Like kids are goodness, Kids who never saw Michael Jordan
play talk about him all right, rocking his kicks and
still talking about him as the goat in the NBA.
(15:38):
And they've witnessed Lebron, you know. So yeah, we're intrigued
by Muhammad al Lee, Mike Tyson, Guys that some youngsters
never even watched. Yet they'll bring their name up and
show them respect. There's a level of respect in sports
that is given. It's it's wild you talk hockey, Stanley
(15:59):
Cup's coming up.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
You're the legends names all the.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
Time in the world of Oh look, you'll give you
another example, even too in sports entertainment wrestling. What happens
when the Rock or Stone Cold or hul Kogan or
one of these old timers comes out. The crowd goes
nuts to get the respect. There's a generational respect where
music for some reason, because you know what it is,
(16:23):
we attach ourselves to the music of our generations.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
The ownership we had, we own it.
Speaker 2 (16:27):
I once read a great article about how the music
that was popular when you were a high school junior
until you are freshman in college, or you know on
your own at eighteen, that fifteen to eighteen year old window,
whatever you connected to, you are convinced is the best.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
You're convinced the.
Speaker 2 (16:47):
Same way you thought nineties rock was the best. You know, Nirvana, Ellison,
chains all that. Some eighties dudes like, shoot kidding, man, dude,
it's about white sneak, the same way some guy in
the seventies thought his music, and some guy in the
sixties said the same way. Mary here at Fox Sports
the other day was saying, like, no one's better everythan
Ketrick Lamar. You're always gonna adopt who your guy was
or your woman was. Sports brings generations together. Music separates,
(17:12):
But I also want to give credit to Again because
it ties in together. We said sports and hip hop
both young man games.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
You both in both areas or arenas.
Speaker 2 (17:22):
You have to know when when to say when I guess,
or else you start to embarrass yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
And you got to give.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Props to Method Man for having the wherewithal and the
self awareness to say that he's never coming back.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
He's gonna just play to his crowd where people love and.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Respect them and cheer when he performs the rock wilder
with Redman.
Speaker 4 (17:48):
I really wish there was an MTV that kids right
now grew up with focused in on it, because my
example would be our middle kid. He wore an Outcast
T shirt, but we laughed because he didn't know Outcast
was a rap group. Never saw a video, so I
had to go to YouTube and show it to him,
because there is no music channel that the kids are
(18:10):
sitting down watching every day. Once he saw a couple
of their videos on YouTube, he's been hooked and bumping
Outcast ever since. So there has been like the Dark
Side of the Moon on some of this music.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
Why does this story resonate? Why has it grown throughout
the day? Why has it gone viral and passed around?
Because it makes us reflect on Wait a second, the
guys who we thought were the coolest, Noboddy was even
like acknowledging them.
Speaker 4 (18:38):
To Rich's point, I see Joe Montana clips all the time,
all the time, and so that's another reason why sports
has the forefathers and has the respect and the kids
know about it.
Speaker 5 (18:49):
So that's I think it's styles makes fights kind of
thing like at the end of the day, because again,
like how do we then explain limbiscuit coming back? It
just whatever the style is just gets latched. It's bizarre.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
It's bizarre. It is it is.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
We don't know the blueprint for why things hit with
certain generations the times. But again I applaud method man
for not taking out taking it out on the crownd,
because I'd want to, who's wrong you guys? You know
I'm a method man. But yeah, I'm surprised he didn't
lose it. Imagine that empty feeling and he went on
(19:23):
with the show and he did their thing, and you
know what, they'll get their props and flowers. As the
kids say, in front of an audience that does respect them,
they just have to stay in their lane. I gave
you the example this morning. It's a matter of thing
laying sports as universal to reader at that point, one
last time sports universal, music generational, you could talk to
(19:43):
I guess had a twenty seven year old Raiders fan
could talk to a fifty something year old Radiers fan
about Jim Plunkett. One will have lived it and one
will have watched highlights and want to talk about it.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
Music.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
A lot of times you want to dismiss younger people's music,
and you want to dismiss older people's music.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Do you think your music? I'll tell you what, Richard.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Did you ever see some Weienial out there wearing some
Wu Tang apparel? You ever see some Weienial with a
w Wu Tang shirt on? You got to tell them
to take it off because you give them no respect.
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Well, I also serve to wear it.
Speaker 2 (20:17):
I also said to you earlier that there is a
space for this right whatever you do, whatever genre of
music you're in. If you're an artist, there's someone for you.
If you were big at one point I gave the
example to you off the air of new kids on
the block.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
Yeah, who cares about them anymore?
Speaker 2 (20:36):
I'll tell you who forty to fifty year old white
girls and they're staying in there, and they stay in
that lane and they sell out you know, hey, not
big arenas, but they sell out small arenas and they
do cruises and this and that to make a ton
of money. Wu Tang methand man just needs to be
like yo, there's clearly going to be a place for
him to prevail at Hot ninety seven Summer Jam where
(20:58):
the headliners are young artists unless you sell it as
and we're bringing back a retro artist method. Man, it's
just not gonna work.
Speaker 5 (21:08):
There is one thing you can probably do, and I
think we've seen it with some crossover stuff. You just
work with the younger odd artists. Yeah, like Billy Ray
Cyrus worked with the Lil nasse X Yep and.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Elton John did a song with Brittany and Dua Lipa
and all the John Lee. Helps to reintroduce yourself for sure,
and you know then kids are like, why who's that
old guy with Kanye West? But still now they know
who Paul McCarthy is right. So look, I still have
a few more thoughts on this, but we'll take your
phone calls again. Sports springs generations together. Music seems to
(21:39):
separate them, especially this week. Your thoughts, plus we got
to talk Kyrie. He has workplace regrets. We're gonna get
into that. All your feedback and more be dialing eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox. We got more Cavino and
Rich next. Now, for centuries, the bond between horse and
human has forged by trust and hands on care. Now,
(22:01):
the sport of thoroughbred racing is combining those traditions with
cutting edge technology and meaningful reforms, raising its safety standards
to the highest levels. New investment in wearable biometric devices
that measure subtle changes in a horse's stride and the
use of advanced imaging technologies helps like potential problems for
early intervention by expert veterinarians, reducing injury risk. Scientific experts test,
(22:24):
measure and analyze racing services to ensure consistence, consistency, and
the sports new independent regulator, the Horse Racing Integrity and
Safety Authority, is implementing comprehensive reforms, including state of the
art testing, monitoring, and strict enforcement, along with new uniform
safety standards, enhanced veterinary protocols, and other measures to ensure
(22:44):
the safest environment possible for racing. Meaningful reforms the let
us tag higher standards every day. The sport's equine athletes
are surrounded by an ecosystem of care and commitment. That's
protecting horse and rider. That's a win win. It's safety
that runs first. Learn more visit at Safety Runs First

comes to music, there's a generational gap. You're always going
(24:41):
to favor the music that represents your high school years,
your college years, your childhood, and that applies to everyone.
Yet in sports we bond with people of all ages
over our love for a team.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
You know, Danny g said, because those highlights live on, right,
and now you would think the songs live on, but
they don't in the same way.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
They don't the same way because look, we had limited
radio stations back then. Now kids want to hear what
they want here when they want to hear it. They
have their own playlists. They're not necessarily caring about the
previous generation's music.
Speaker 1 (25:12):
Theirs is the best.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Right.
Speaker 2 (25:14):
We were exposed to older music back then. They're not
as exposed now. Do you think stats have something to
do with it too? You know, because even if you
didn't see those legends play, you see the stats. You
have that respect. What are the stats that you care about?
And I never I never watched Ted Williams play, but
I've been convinced he's the greatest hitter of all time
(25:34):
exactly right, Like, hey, you know, Wu Tang and Redman
sold millions of albums, right, bids are like, yeah, whatever,
what are albums again? But the sports analogy, you could
talk to some older uncle about how great Mantle and
Maris were the same way a young kid could talk
to you about Jeter and Birnie, and you could talk
(25:56):
about the nineties and two thousands, and here's like respect there. Well,
now it's about judging Volte and these gays. Every generation
in sports, for some reason could talk about their team
and have a total respect. So method Man said, at
this point, the generation gap is just too wide to
perform at these young shows again. And he says he's
(26:17):
never coming back and his stay in his lane moving
forward where he's appreciated. And we said sports brings generations together.
Music seems to separate, especially this week with Eminem and
this story New Eminem. I do think the only solution
in the music world is when you combine those generations.
Let's go to the phones to wrap it up. Eight
(26:38):
seven to seven ninety nine one Fox, Kevin, Florida.
Speaker 1 (26:41):
What's up, Kevin?
Speaker 8 (26:42):
Hey, how you doing guys?
Speaker 1 (26:43):
It's up, Boddy.
Speaker 8 (26:44):
Thanks for the great combo there, because I was telling
the guy who asked the phone about my son. He
died of a fentnel overdose in April and sorry, yeah,
thanks brother guy. Well, I thank God for him. You know,
I think gone for you. I think I'll preport think
(27:05):
up for music. Santana. I think said it, and I
think a lot of people said it, but music is
getting a universal language, you know, And I do understand
what you guys are saying, but it's crazy. You know,
between movies and music. There's some really classic even black
and White that my son loved watching. We watched together,
(27:26):
and his favorite band was The Beach Boys, and he
would have been thirty three this year, right.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
I think God only knows one of the best songs
of all times, without a doubt. And by the way,
that's a tribute to you, because yeah, you're probably the
one that exposed them to it, you know. And that's
what Danny was saying. These kids aren't being exposed to
this stuff the way they used to. But music has
always been one of those things where you will always
connect to your generation. Matt and so cal reanik you man,
(27:52):
I appreciate the call.
Speaker 9 (27:54):
He could be a written rich as only natural contact
back by since herebs.
Speaker 10 (28:00):
I love it again. Great topic. I was telling Danny
g that like I work in I do a lot
of scouting.
Speaker 9 (28:07):
And social media in the high school in college basketball world,
so I get to have the there is definitely a gap,
especially in the music, but I get to have these
great interaction and conversations where I can kind of bridge
that gap with some of these kids to the music or.
Speaker 10 (28:21):
To do to an athlete, like I'm a nineties kid,
so like showing kids Nick van Exel for the Lakers,
it just blows their mind.
Speaker 9 (28:29):
Or introducing a kid to the Wu Tang.
Speaker 10 (28:30):
Clan and Mariah Carey and then also Danny G made
a great point like I do run into some kids
who are on top of it, like they're on top
of the even further back, like they know they know seties.
Speaker 2 (28:41):
You know, it's funny you would bring up Nick van
Xel like you'd probably tell kids like and jay Z
used him as a lyric once.
Speaker 1 (28:47):
That's true.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
You know, what's an interesting one. Thank you man, and
thanks for the call, Matt. My father in law's in town.
Dave has been visiting, so it's nice to have Grandpa
in town with the grandkids and him and I been
having a lot of like late night talks about music
and TV and sports.
Speaker 1 (28:59):
You know, my father in love is a great dude.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
He says what he enjoys because he's you know, up
on stuff. He watches YouTube videos and he's on social media.
My father Ala was saying he loves watching reaction videos
of young kids hearing old songs for the first time.
Speaker 1 (29:15):
So does my mom. She loves it. He talks about
it all the time. Father loves telling me.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
He's like, he's like, there was some young cool He's like,
there was some young cool kid that's like, yeah, I'm
a hip hop kid and he heard led Zeppelin for
the first time.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
And his mind was blown.
Speaker 2 (29:29):
And my father love that. He watched his m my
mom this week. He's like, I love those videos. She
loves them. So there's something there. But this is just
another coming of age story that Hey, the guys we
rocked out too, and like growing up, they're getting older,
but at least they're acknowledging that, you know what, I'm
(29:50):
better than this and I'm not coming back, and I
know my audience, I know my place. And it's kind
of like that story of remember David Lee Roth we
joked about years ago. This upset, This hurt my heart.
Isaac Loncron, Do you know the David Lee Roth story?
I do not refresh my memory.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
So sad but funny.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
At the same time, he's in a Vegas hotel and
he hears something they're performing. They're performing, they're doing like
a van Halen reunion something. He hears some young kids
having like a bachelor party and they're cranking Van Halen.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
So he goes up to their hotel door. They open it.
He's like, hates me. He Diamond Dave and they're.
Speaker 2 (30:29):
Like, I'm so sorry, sir, we'll turn the music down.
He's like, it's me and they're like, sir, don't call
security or we apologize.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Guys, put away the drinks. And he's like, but it's me,
Diamond Day.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
They don't care at all. They have no idea who
this old guy is. They're like, who is this? Uh,
who's this flamboyant dude bothering us?
Speaker 8 (30:47):
You know?
Speaker 1 (30:48):
But it's David Lee Roth.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
Wayne Gretzky was once visiting the Hockey Hall of Fame
in Toronto, Ontario, Canada with one of his sons and
they have an interactive exhibit where you can like shoot
pucks at like a target goaltender or something like that.
And so they're in the line and Gretzky's son takes
a shot and then Gretzky's next in line and he's
(31:11):
about to take a shot and the kid running the
event says, excuse me, sir, you're not holding your stick right.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Let me show you how a true story that's so funny.
That's great. Well again, none of the sorry, we'll call security,
old guy. It's me Diamond D.
Speaker 2 (31:26):
By the way, that videos on YouTube, you want to
see it. It's so embarrassed. If you want to feel
sad again, we're all gonna get there. We might be
there right now, but it's about acknowledging it, not being
mad about it, and then getting in the lane where
you belong and thrive the best before you go to Isaac,
let me I got I was gonna say I got
one for your mom. Oh sorry, don't mean I got
a video for your mom. If she likes those reaction videos,
(31:48):
love them, tell her to look up because I watched
some of these. Remember We Are the World, the documentary
on Netflix, The Greatest Night and Pop. Yeah, there's so
many videos of twenty some than's watching the We Are
the World video and they're guessing who is that?
Speaker 1 (32:04):
Like, Yo, I think that's Bruce Springsteen. Oh no, can't wait,
Yo is that Willie Nelson? Oh crap?
Speaker 2 (32:09):
Like watching young people watch the We Are the World video,
it's funny, is oddly fun well, watching young people watch
method Man and Redman on stage, not as a fun
uh So that's the story again. Sports springs generations together, music,
especially this week, seems to separate generations. And we gotta
talk workplace regrets is a story about Kyrie. We gotta
(32:31):
do that next, But first you want to talk to
Isaac who doesn't want to talk to Isaac Low and Crown?
Speaker 1 (32:37):
Why?
Speaker 6 (32:38):
Thank you, hi, sir, And we have some fresh news
for you guys, because The Athletic has just reported that
the Los Angeles Lakers are quote zeroing in unquote on
JJ Reddick as the front runner to be their next
head coach. No final decision has been made yet, and
the Lakers still have steps remaining in their head coaching
(32:58):
search process, but the indications are strong that Ruddick is
there leading a choice at this stage. But but Lebron
has no influence. Come on, you know what, I actually
turned down the gig as Lebron's podcast co host.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'd have been the next head coach of the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
I know it's an unimportant question, but does the podcast
not exist?
Speaker 6 (33:21):
If that's literally what every other comment underneath that.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
Really is, Because how do you, you know, play a game?
Let's say tensions are high. Let's see, it was a
bad game, and then the next show you have to
do a show with your coach and then bad mouth
your teammates and like that's awkward.
Speaker 1 (33:38):
Now, you know what.
Speaker 2 (33:39):
I think it's a great move only because I think
it'll provide great content. Danny G you're a Lakers fan. Yeah,
your name on JJ Reddick. It's weird, smart guy. But
to know it also, I think the media is gonna
love everything about boy.
Speaker 1 (33:51):
Ryan Hollins was talking to dB.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
He was just saying that that dude garnered respect in
every locker room he was in, and he knew because
he played with him. So it's it's not a matter
for me of can he do it and does he
deserve that sort of respect for me, it's the dumb
question of that podcast has to be done then, right, Yeah.
Speaker 4 (34:09):
I agree. I think he could do a great job.
It's just his entry into this world is strange.
Speaker 1 (34:14):
Yeah, Ryan said.
Speaker 2 (34:16):
Hollins did say, and I trust him because he's our
pal and he's been in the NBA and he's seven
foot and he's seven feet tall. He said, it's not
about him, it's about who he surrounds himself with.
Speaker 1 (34:25):
Like, who else does he get involved?
Speaker 6 (34:28):
We take you now to a Lakers practice next season.
Coach Reddick blows the whistle and says, all right, everybody
run wind sprints twenty five up and downs, except you, Lebron,
go with me into the corner and record the last
segment of our podcast.
Speaker 1 (34:45):
Yeah, it's weird, Lebron.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
I need you to do this live ready, it's Lebron dreams.
Speaker 6 (34:51):
Retirech in lieu of practicing your free throws anyway. San
Francis Good Fortia Nighters running back Christian McCaffrey's agreed to
a two year, thirty eight million dollar extension through twenty
twenty seven. Today, Epei Mizuhara, former translator of Shohe Otani,
officially pleaded guilty to bank and tax fraud charges. Major
League Baseball also officially cleared Otani of any wrongdoing. Major
(35:14):
League Baseball. Meanwhile, today band San Diego Padres infielder to
Kapita Marcano for life four gambling. Marcano plays two hundred
and thirty one Major League Baseball bets, including bets on
Pittsburgh Pirates games while he was still a member of
the Pirates. Marcano lost ninety five point seven percent of
(35:37):
the bets that he made.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
Oh boy, and he has no interpreter, right Markanov.
Speaker 6 (35:42):
Now perhaps he should say he has one and say
it was him, because after.
Speaker 1 (35:49):
All, you've got to have a fall guy.
Speaker 6 (35:51):
Great idea, and he's probably out there listing saying why
didn't I have a translator?
Speaker 1 (35:55):
Be to you guys.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Yes at Fox Sports Radio, thanks again for hanging out.
Next hour, Shack Diesel, Whack Diesel, NBA Trivia your chance
to win a swiggy so be dialing eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. We still got to talk some NFL,
but Kyrie before Kyrie, I got it. I'm sorry. Oh,
I'm sorry, Glad I asked here before I'm gonna go
(37:35):
old school.
Speaker 1 (37:36):
Glad. We discussed it. I'm going, yeah, let's talk, Kyrie.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
You're right, but I'm getting give you an old school
twenty second, old school NBA timeout.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Danny said, you pulled a Zach Marris on me time out.
Mister Belding doesn't know you do look like a c slater, Okay,
Preppy Danny G said his kid didn't know Alcast and
was wearing an Olcast shirt. I think back to the
two thousands and it was a minute it where no
one was hotter bombs over bag dad, Miss Jackson, and
(38:04):
I want to bring up hey ya just for a second,
because I feel like when Hey y'all came out, Danny,
you were working in hip hop radio, I was working
in pop radio, and Kavino was working in rock radio.
I think no one knew how to really label that song.
It played everywhere. Yeah, it was a crossover.
Speaker 2 (38:22):
Hey Yah by Outcast was on K Rock, was on
like Kiss FM, and Z one hundred was also on
like Hot ninety seven in power like Hey y'all by Outcasts?
Is that the song that was on the most formats?
Maybe that's a good question because I think everyone's like, oh,
it's a little of everything. It was played everywhere, well
two three maybe no, man, it's around man. We were
(38:46):
all shaking like a polaroid picture on every station.
Speaker 8 (38:50):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (38:50):
Rich makes a great point. That's like the definition of
a crossover song.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
You know, Eminem got a lot, but not as much.
And that's why maybe.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
Maybe Lincoln Park Encore with Jay Z where maybe hip
hop and rock crossed it over and it played on
pop as well.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Podcast might be the league leader though of.
Speaker 2 (39:07):
That, Jay can I get an encore? Do you want
more that? That's the collision course, Yeah, that collaboration. Yeah,
that's true, but that was just sort of rock and
hip hop that made maybe a little pop.
Speaker 8 (39:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
Outcast really was everywhere at the time.
Speaker 2 (39:23):
Now, I just you know, you said Outcast and we
played it, so I just had to say, and what
is your favorite Outcast song? Is Bombs Over Baghdad? Or
is it Miss Jackson? Well a little bragging, right. I
was part of a show in New York called Solid
State with Liquid Todd Nel Covino.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
That's me.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
We were the first in New York City to play
Bombs over Bagdad because we had a late night Saturday
night like remixed show. Oh do you like the way
you moved? So that one is a personal favorite. But
Miss Jackson is my jam bro. I still play that
about Fresh so Clean is that's my jam right there?
Rose Parks is a great song tale.
Speaker 4 (39:56):
And you got to go back to ninety four Southern playlistic,
black music.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
All great Jamie joints.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
But again, based on our previous conversation, your responsibility to
pass these songs down. Yeah, if you're casting some if
your kid has an outcast T shirt, which I think
they're selling a target, now this is probably where I
got it, then you gotta be like, yo, kid, don't.
Speaker 1 (40:15):
Be the jerk. That's like, you can't wear the shirt
if you don't know, but you can't be wearing a
Woo Tang shirt.
Speaker 2 (40:20):
But if you're not cheering them on at the Summer
jam Hot ninety seven festival.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
But maybe, just maybe.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
If you are rocking an old school rock or hip
hop T shirt, no like one or two of a song.
So if an old timer calls you out, you know
us up all right now we mentioned Kyrie is in
the news, we'll just set it up for you.
Speaker 1 (40:40):
Briefly. He's saying he regrets flipping the bird the middle
finger versus the Celtics back in twenty twenty two after
hitting a jumper, says, it wasn't a great reflection on
my end. So based on that story and again he
gets his full chance at redemption and revenge and gets
(41:04):
a chance to win and show Boston what he's all about.
This week we ask you if you have any workplace
regrets or any other stories that come to mind in
sports based on that, because we have a few. There's
a Daryl Strubberry start we're going to get to in
a few. Yep, we'll go old school with Daryl. But
it was a bad look.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
You know, and it did add to a not positive,
non positive narrative that we had going with Kyrie. Didn't
help his stigma at the time, the middle Finger bird too,
you know, the Celtics fans, the team, the fu Looking back,
he regrets it now, I could see that. I mean,
he seems to be in a different place for sure.
Speaker 1 (41:45):
I got a.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Personal story, but I'm thinking also recently the once superstar
what happened to him? Hobby Baias. Remember when Hovey Bias
used to be a superstar in the Cubs. Yeah, then
he went to the Mets.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
And then where'd he go where's he now.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
He's sitting on his couch. Yeah, Hobby bias of the Tigers.
Hobby bias. Remember he had those uh, those bad moments
in New York where he the he sort of turned
against the fans. Yeah, and he was doing the thumbs down,
and you know that made the Mets go from thinking
he was part of the future to not
