(01:27):
school and fifty hits. Jaws came out forty nine years
ago today scared the Bejesus out of us. Well before
the movie people didn't have an irrational fear of a
Shark's Gonna Eat Me came out in nineteen seventy five.
It's a classic. So based on that, movies or shows
that totally changed the way you think, fed you up,
(01:50):
scared you gave you an irrational fear, and Rich a
show that I don't even watch, but I know the
reference has to do with a coffee pot, Am I right?
Oh that's uh no, actually not a coffee pot at all,
but I know where you were going. Crockpot, A crockpot,
That's what I meant. This is Us, which is a
show I missed very much. I was a drama that
made me cry every week I watched the Greek version
(02:11):
This is Gus. It was way better, and this is Gus.
It was a coffee pot. Yeah that's yeah, this is
Gus and this is Us. It was a crockpot. Ye Jack,
my little vent Amilia spoiler, he dies as you know
on the show. But it was because they left a crockpot,
a faulty crock pot plugged in. Now I've never yeah,
I've never seen the show, and I could give a
(02:32):
Diddley squat about it. Right, I need a show to
make me cry. My point is I know that because
of that show, a lot of people double second triple
guest that I unplugged the crockpot and they can't rest
the entire day, but wondering if that's going to set
their house on. I do remember that when that episode aired,
(02:52):
because that show was big for NBC. When that Jack
dies Crockpot episode was on that next month, there was
an uptick in people buying new crock pots, thinking, oh
my god, what if I have an old faulty one.
So listen, movies and TV affect us Allah Jaws on
this date, forty nine years ago, just the theme alone
(03:13):
got you all freaked out. I brought up one before
we went to commercial, which I think is definitely one.
If you watch all those silly, fun final destination movies,
you do see a truck with lumber on it, a
bunch of logs. You are not riding behind that. Based
on the second one or some votto it is with
like a giant couch and all his furniture strapped in
(03:36):
with a shoelace. I'm not driving behind that guy because
I saw in the movie.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
How Not Happening, Oh when the girl got stuck in
the tanning bed?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Ever since?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Oh yeah, if I see one of the lay down
tanning bed tanning swan beds, I'm like, I don't know
who can be comfortable laying in there?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Get trapped, burned to death? It I got got another
one that I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
You.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I don't know what this is from, because I feel
like there's multiple answers. But every time I go to
my car late at night, I always look underneath my
car because there was some movie where someone got their
achilles like sliced, and I'm like, I have seen that?
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Saw it saw? Or it might have been yeah, but
I feel like it was Also there was a his
Achilles slide. But I just remember that, like there's also
in Casino Casino into the film where that's it yep,
casino and saw the idea that someone's hiding underneath your car. Yeah,
and like that that tender back you're right there of
your ankle, it's called actually man, that makes me a
(04:42):
little a little scared.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
I was thinking of one movie that scared every man
who saw it, even us as kids. Fatal Attraction.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Mmmm.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
That one is just more like you feel like, oh
my gosh, this could happen at home, right, Like it's.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Just it's well with the bunny cooking.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Yeah, just because it wasn't like a a creature that
doesn't exist like you know, because for me, jeeper screepers
scared me where I thought something was going to land
on my car any single time I'm driving down the
highway alone, you know what I mean? Or like World
War Z, like those zombies. I was like, if those
zombies are the ones that take over, we're done. We
could deal with walking dead zombies, not world world World
(05:18):
Wars no matter.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, those got like they got Tyreek killspeed, right. Walking
dead zombies are like uh pocket right.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
But I feel like fatal attraction, you know, was it
something that's not real?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
You guys all being radio masters and loving audio, you
can relate to this and appreciate it because we are
in the business of sound. It was not the costumes
at all. And Covino, you could back me up on this.
There were these these things called reruns back.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
In the day.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
As little kids in the early eighties, they played reruns
of Land of the Lost Love that.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Oh, and when the dad and his two kids would
go into the slee stack cave the sounds, Sam has it.
I think the sound scared the crap out of me
when they were coming.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, I think I kissed anytime. Danny.
Speaker 7 (06:06):
Here's a sicatah freaking John Sicata shouts out to sid
and Marty Kroft.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
When they weren't being chased by really bad graphics of dinosaurs.
These sleistack costumes. When you see them now they are hilarious,
like they are such bad costumes. But as a little kid,
hearing that noise and seeing them chase the family, you
were scared to death.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I was so into that show, and I was little
irrational fears hit us up. We got more answers, but
I don't want to Take Away Yours eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox, based on Jaws again forty nine
years ago. Today, Meg in Montana, what a pirana covinn Retchay? Meg, Hey, guys,
what's up?
Speaker 4 (06:48):
You hit the nail on the head with the Final
Destination two. I was thirteen having a sleepover with the galpal.
We watched that movie late at night. The power went out,
which did not help, so we ended up staying up
all night watched the whole thing twice since we got interrupted.
(07:08):
The next morning, her parents came to pick us up
and we were gonna go for a nice boat ride
on the lake, towing the boat in the car with
her family. There was a truck in front of us.
It did not have logs on it, but it was.
Speaker 8 (07:24):
Like a big water truck.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
We could see something flashing around in this big bin.
All of a sudden, this guy goes to turn right
way too fast. The truck flips over right in front
of us, rolls into the ditch. Her dad had to
slam on the brakes, fish tailed the boat.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Us.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Poor girls in the back seat were screaming like ban cheese, scared.
We're so traumatized. Luckily everyone was Okay. It turned out
it was just water in the truck, nothing flammable, no explosions.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Still and my.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Heart's beating just for you telling the story.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Most scary, great story back in the back in the
eighties and nineties, My goodness, when I mess with my
little brother because he had my Buddy Doll, and when
Child's Play came out, I tried to convince my little
brother that his my Buddy doll would come to life.
Just having that doll was scared in the house, would
(08:23):
scare me because of the movie. Probably my sister had
that doll. I have that doll, spot still has. He
was my best friend. Explains a lot, Kaylon in South Dakota.
Let's up, Kaylin.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
So you mention it, you still my answer, But yeah,
Child's Playing. When I was about ten years old, my
buddies were a couple of years older than I am.
Grew up in small town South Dakota.
Speaker 10 (08:45):
Watch Child's Play.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
They didn't even have to convince me. I was sure
that my Diamond Dallas Page stuff you're wrestling, buddy was
gonna end up coming up and murdered me. Could you
watch Diamond Dallas Page murder people in the ring? Every week,
you were determined that the doll was going.
Speaker 10 (08:59):
To do it to you.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
I got too. Thank you, man. I'm sorry Rich Stele
your answer. What a selfish guy he is? Am I right?
I didn't know what his answer was. Guy waited on
hold just to say that, and you had to butt
in there and ruin his answer. I got one once
kind of sports related because it is Fox Sports Radio.
It could be anything you say. You never want to
be the goat, like with the old school goat, the
guy who ruins the game. You know, based on some
(09:21):
movies you may have seen, but pre gps, any wrong
turn I made, I thought, man, I could end up
in some dangerous situations, especially out here in LA. You
make one wrong turn, you could be like in the
worst neighborhood. Same thing with on the East Coast. And
after seeing the movie Judgment Night, which maybe most people
(09:44):
haven't seen but I recommend it, like they end up
they're having a sweet dude's night out and then they
get lost in all hell ensues, right We're talking murder
and death and like ah, because they end up in
the worst part of town and they get involved where
they shouldn't be involved. So anytime I was lost somewhere
and it is back in the day again before GPS, like,
oh no, I'm gonna die. This is where it goes down.
(10:06):
This is where and sports related, just based on what
I saw Steve Bartman go through. Anytime a foul ball
comes into the vicinity of where I am, I just
know instinctively to back off, because I don't ever want
to be perceived as the guy like that, the dufist
who ruined. I wish that would happen to you. You know,
I've learned, you know, just based on the fear of
(10:28):
watching this guy's like it ruined. Listen. It's all because
this is the anniversary of Jaws, which a lot of
people argue has had the most psychological effect on human
fear than any other movie, because again, sharks are not
considered scary to the general public until Jaws. But I'll
tell you what, We're always considered scary at least. Aren't
(10:48):
you scared of sharknadoes now too? I heard I look
up in the sky every day hoping this is not
one spot. I know that you were affected as a
young boy by a rachnophobia, Is that true? Not that
I was affected? I am unable to watch that. Wow,
I love that movie. I'm unable it is. It's a
rough one. Irrational fears, Allah, Jaws, Spider and the Helmet. Oh,
(11:12):
it's so creepy. All right, let's say how did Jennifer
Jennifer and Michigan.
Speaker 9 (11:16):
Hi Jane stop it good A good evening to you, guys.
Speaker 8 (11:22):
I have to tell you.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
When I was thirteen, I spent the night at a
friend's house. Her and her grandmother didn't ask my mom
if they could take me to see pet cemetery too.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Sounds scared now, man, I had nightmares for two weeks.
I did you assume she had like a dying sister
in the other bedroom? Because that movie will freak you out.
You know what scared me as a kill? Is that
a name? Yeah, it's scared me because I know it
wasn't I know it wasn't real. Even as a kid,
I knew it wasn't real. But did anyone else feel
(11:55):
like the cgi of Large March and Pee's Big Adventure
did that? That's scared to never? You know, get in
a car with a stranger, that'sh they have a Large March.
I've seen that part of the movie. Uh, let's go
to it jar and tell him large March sent you
Ron and Reno. Hey, Ron, how you doing? Hey? What's
(12:17):
up about?
Speaker 10 (12:18):
I remember back in nineteen eighty when the movie came out,
I saw it in the theater. Was the Shining Oh yeah,
And that one, that one took me for a loop.
I was buying myself and I was fifteen years old,
so that one, that one had a remarkable effect on me,
that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Thank you man. You know you reminded me of something else.
This is true. I was in Ohi, California with my ex,
so it was my previous life, right. I went to
Ohi and I stayed at this airbnb or just like
a house rent all the time. I don't even know
if it was an airbnb.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
It around. Did guys see the famous pink sunset?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
No, dude, but I stayed at this place in the
middle of nowhere, right, and I just felt so helpless
and unsafe because I was really in the middle of nowhere.
It's just you and the stars. And I started hearing
all these crazy noises and I had this irrational fear
take over me, just based on the movie The Strangers,
Remember the Strangers, and they come knocking on the door
at night and like, I'm like, wait, I'm gonna be
(13:15):
the guy to fight off. That's why I don't watch
scary movies anymore. I think that's the last scary movie
I watched, so whatever year, that came out as the
last one because I was at this place and I
felt like such a weenie. I was so scared, my
ex was scared. We left that place in the middle
of the night because of the irrational fear of that movie.
True story was that the one during the preview, it
(13:36):
had the record play like yes, Yes with Lim Tyler.
That's it. By the way, highly recommend.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
That movie if you haven't seen it, seen it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
But it was so good. I have watched a scary
movie since. That's how long it's been. Yeah, I'm trying
to think of some good ones. But hey, the phones
were all lit. So let's say rapid fire, shall we?
Speaker 9 (13:58):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Jimmy in Texas? Up, Jimmy, Joe?
Speaker 8 (14:02):
What's up at my nose?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
What's d Hey?
Speaker 11 (14:06):
Guys, just says I know you'll like to put a
bow on things. I just gotta say. The mom and
this know you was such a fluzie that I didn't
realize it until I watched the movie again as an
older As an older perspective.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Kujo, oh, Kujo, Yeah, I remember Kujo.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Look what floozy the mom was.
Speaker 11 (14:25):
But yeah, but yeah, after that, I made sure my
dog never like chase breakfasts and any other animal outside.
Speaker 10 (14:31):
I was like, you're gonna get raby.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Is like Kujo and the Blob were like my mom's fears.
I feel like things you remember your parents were scared of,
like the blob Kujo. Isn't that why she was so
scared that your brother was getting fat? Yeah? She want
him turn into the blob, the blob. Let's say hi
to Jay in Missouri.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
How you doing, Hey, Carino? You follow me everywhere I go.
I listened to you every day and drive time and
then Saturday more I turn around. There you are on
Ozzy's bone yard.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh my dog duty. I'm everywhere man, and they'll step
on I know.
Speaker 8 (15:06):
I know. It's like I'm older than you, guys, and
my freaked out. Movie movies usually don't freak me out
because they're movies and they're make believe. But I was
eight years old the summer of the Manson Murders, and
then they had a TV movie of the week on
Helter Skelter, based on Buliosi's book, and I was about
fourteen years old, and I was freaked out because you know,
(15:29):
the Manson was coming in in the middle of the night.
So yeah, anyway, I just want to say tick it going.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
We Love you on Ozzy And yeah, my movie.
Speaker 8 (15:39):
That freaked me out was Helter Skelter Jay.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
That was a great one and inspired another irrational fear
for me as a kid. We grew up. I grew
up in the eighties, right, and that's the decade of kidnappings.
I'll Adam Walls style, you know, so you thought that
every van that pulled up in your neighborhood was gonna
kidnap you and I lived in that fear of I'm
(16:05):
gonna get kidnapped. We all lived in the fear of
a white van gonna take us, people are strangers giving
us candy. All irrational fears which could have been reality.
But you know, we lived in that fear because of
the stuff we saw on news and after school movies
and things like that. So based on Jaws, guys, the
irrational fears based on movies and shows you saw growing up.
(16:27):
Let's say, how did Jay and Kentucky. What's up, Jake.
We're good.
Speaker 10 (16:32):
So this one's particularly scary because you know that they
live in your house.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Yeah, we mentioned that spot particularly scared of spiders. I
don't know where that came from, it just developed. I mean,
that was a creepy movie, you know what I mean.
That's a that's a one time watch. Watch when you're
at an airbnb or a place you're not really that
familiar with, don't you doesn't it cross your mind and
(17:00):
you're laying there that they could be cameras watching you
based on things you've seen on TV, like weird movies.
Speaker 7 (17:05):
I mean I check every like closet and under the bed,
and I do the shower. I always pull back the
shower curtain.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I swear every every fire alarm or any every blinking light.
I'm like, they're taping some creeps. I put out a
show for him. Yeah, you know, you made.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Me think of older movies and it's scared a crap
out of me when I was a little kid. You
claim it's one of the best movies of all time.
When we did our movie draft Wizard of Oz, that
scared kids all across the monkeys, No, the Wicked Witch
of the Yeah, the Wicked Witch was creepy.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Oh the worst. She was super scary for sure, just
her laugh. Oh hell yeah, you mind pretty and you're
a little dog, Danny scared? Uh oh well, uh you
want to say how to rob and wrap it up? Oh,
let's tuck to Rob Robin Texas, Hey, Bud.
Speaker 10 (18:00):
Scariest movie I ever saw as a kid was in
the eighties, the day after when they made for TV
Nuclear Holocaust on TV. I can't believe my parents want
to watch it.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Dude. Any time you're driving through a cornfield or any
desolate area, you're thinking Children of the corn Rich. When
you and I were on a road trip and we
were lost, when we were lost, oh I know where
we were actually felt so scared, and it's all rational
fears based on movies we saw. There wasn't a person
in sight, irrational wore some frequent of chainsaws gonna gek right,
So let me ask I was Sam now because he
is from the home of corn So Danny, g I'm
(18:32):
curious you Mansei, this is an interesting thought. So we're
driving on a coveno on Rich road trip. We love
doing these live broadcasts. In fact, we're gonna be doing
more a graduate hotel. But back in the serious XM days,
we would do five cities in like five days. We
started in Dallas one year and ended up in Minneapolis,
(18:52):
stopping in cities along the way. I remember spot. We
were like, oh, wow, Saint Olaf, Minnesota, which is the
home of st.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
All Off College.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
No like Golden Girls, Yes, thank you, but also saying
all Off College Rose Island.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Most people think Rose from the Golden Girl. I didn't
know no idea. So we're like, oh, on the way,
we're going through these cornfields that it is creepy, like
have you no said out of a movie. We had
taken along our associate producer, this young dude, Jake, and
he was a kid, didn't have much money. We're like
we started saying like I'll throw one hundred, you throw
(19:25):
one hundred. We had hundreds of dollars, Like, dude, get
out of the car, run twenty feet into the cornfield
and we're going to turn the lights in the car
out and he's like, no, we're not about a kid
that was broke, And like, all right, dude, thousand dollars
and he's like no. Irrational fear kept him in. I
would say when we were like, run into the cornfield,
We're going to turn the car lights out, pitch dark,
running the cornfield for thirty seconds.
Speaker 12 (19:46):
Absolutely, I have no fear of corn but you can
get lost in cornfields, like you have to if it's
there's no if like if it's overcast, you can't see
where the sun is, you don't know where you came from,
you can definitely get lost. I'm not afraid of running
into the corn I've done that before, dark desolate road, cornfields, everywhere.
We turn the car lights off and say, Monzi, go
run the cornfield thirty seconds.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
We'll give you a thousand dollars. You know, I think
I could do it. I'm not as a hous bucks. Yeah,
for a thousand bucks, I think I could do it.
How about this.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
I may be crying as I'm doing it, but I'll
do it.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You guys so much. You know it's I think it's
interrational fear, just based on what experts tell me. But
anytime I'm feeling turbulence, I feel like I feel like
Twilight something. Wait exactly, I'm like, there's a there's an
alien guy. You ever see Twilight Zone or Twilights on
the movie they want William Shatner and the remake. Like
(20:41):
I swear there's a monster on the wing and that's
why we're all gonna die on this plane. This is horrible.

the win is taken away Devin Haney's undefeated still and
now he's gone for a year.
Speaker 7 (24:15):
He also has to pay back the one point one
million dollar person as well as a ten thousand dollars
fine again because he has I guess you would call
it a what was it contaminated substance?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Contaminated supplements? Wow, that tested positive for austering. Well well, well,
so that's the update there. And I do want to
say I'm watching some of the coverage from Rickwood Field.
Very cool to see them do this on Fox Sports
against the Giants and Cardinals tonight. So when you get home,
definitely put it on. My first takeaway was that Barry
(24:50):
bonslook's fantastic. He looks great. But again, it's in Birmingham, Alabama,
one of the Negro League fields, and they're paying tribute
to Willie Mays and all the Negro League players the
in a game there. The field was from nineteen ten.
It's really cool to see like them playing a major
league game at this old school field. Well, Griffy Jr.
And Bonds are chopping it up with a Rod and
(25:13):
Big Poppy and Jeter and I'll tell you it's it's
it's so apparent that when dudes, let the gray come
in a bunch like it ages like Griffy looks ten
and fifteen years older than Barry Bonds. Barry Bonds looks fantastic.
Barry Bonds also featured on Ken Golden's King of Collectibles.
(25:34):
On that, Reggie, is that Richie Jackson drun in the panel?
Is it? Yes, Reggie, That's what I'm saying. This is
a really cool moment that the fact that they're playing
at this old been a big deal for the black
players in baseball. Attribute to the Negro leagues. You'll see
some of the highlights when you get home later. Enjoy that.
A couple of the quick notes before we get to
JJ Reddick, Lebron and Monci's update, we're talking about movies
(25:57):
that affect us and off the air. We're saying, how
horror movies, you know, doing number on you. Little things
you do like everyant this irrational fear they plant to see. Dude,
if I watch some scary crap with my wife, I'm
just watching a late night movie. When I go to
the bathroom and I'm brushing my teeth or washing my face,
I always feel like, and you know, when movies when
there's no one in the mirror. You look down and
(26:17):
then when you look up, someone's behind you. Like aha,
I always feel like when I'm brushing my teeth in
the mirror after watching something scary, I'm gonna look down
for a second, spit out my toothpaste, look up, and
someone's gonna be behind me, like or someone's gonna be
in your back seat. Yeah, I do that, and I
realize it's just me in the mirror. So that on
a lighter note, not so much fear because of the
(26:40):
movie Slum Dug Millionaire. Anytime something dumb happens in my life,
I'm like, maybe this is just like something I'm supposed
to remember from my moments, Like maybe this will be
my question when I'm on like a game show. That's
a lot of stuff to remember. And trumanshaw I affected
a lot of people because there are people that think, like,
you know, maybe this is a simulation.
Speaker 7 (26:57):
I mean, that's just the matrix did that so well?
All the movies that affect you.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Again, you could hit us up at coven on Rich
now before we get to Monty for an update, because
I know Montio thoughts on JJ Reddick and lebron I
mentioned this the other day COVI when you weren't here.
So I'm curious about your thoughts. As we all get older,
you go from twenty thirty forty fifty. As we all
get older, the people you work with and work for
end up being your contemporaries. They end up being people
(27:25):
you could have graduated high school with, people that you
look at and say, yeah, they're five years younger than
me and they're the boss. They earned it, or maybe
they didn't. JJ Reddick and Lebron James just to play
step boy, both born in nineteen eighty four, both thirty
nine going on forty years old, and you got to
(27:45):
say to yourself, does Lebron and JJ Reddick have too
much of like a bro friendship? They did the podcast together.
Can you separate that stuff when it comes to on
the court and off the court. I think it's all
great in theory.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I do.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I think it sounds fun, But there's always gonna be
that blurred line of friendship and work relationship, and it's
always difficult. It's difficult with our show sometimes. I mean,
you know, we're all friends, but yeah, it's a blurred
line of Hey, this isn't like friend related, this is
like work related, and I don't know how that doesn't
(28:20):
bleed into the NBA with their relationship. Again, he hosts
podcast together. It's a great way to start, but there
has to be a line drawn right from the get go.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
I've worked with you two for twenty years.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (28:31):
If let's say, like our boss Scott got promoted to like,
you know, senior VP or whatever, and he's like, oh,
I need someone to kind of run the station. We've
been eyeing you up. This will never happen, by the way,
you mean, we're twenty five. I would be like one
hundred and fifty on the list. But let's say that
happened and I became your boss, would you listen to me?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I would quit before listening to you, exactly.
Speaker 7 (28:52):
Like you would still see me as your little sidekick producer.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You wouldn't respect me.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Yeah, but JJ Reddick played in the league for fifteen
years and has played in the league for twenty. Okay,
but I think this is slightly different though.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Yeah, what I mean, it's about listening to someone who's
your peer who then becomes your boss.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I know he's guarded respecs along the way and always
did in every locker room that he played in. It's
a different type and he has that great type of
reputation with his peers as a as a you were
when you're someone's peer, you're in the same room. When
you become like senior level, executive level, boss level, you're
(29:32):
now in different rooms than that person is making different
types of decisions, having different types of responsibilities. But he
was You don't see that. He isn't going to see that.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
He wasn't like a young assistant on the Lakers working
with Lebron though they played in the league at the
same time together as peers.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
They were in the same room.
Speaker 7 (29:49):
Now they're in different rooms, and there's a different type
of responsibility on JJ Reddick that Lebron doesn't have to
worry about.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
There's things that seem or may appear unfair with this
relationship that do happen in every officer workplace everywhere. Like
you may think to yourself, well, it's a little awkward
that him and Lebron are going to have this sort
of friendship and this camaraderie and this understanding, this closeness
that JJ Reddick and the other players aren't going to have.
But that also applies to most workplaces. I might be
(30:18):
closer to the Boss than Danny g Is or vice versa.
I'm just saying that's just how life works. Sometimes relationships
are like that sometimes. But you know, to say that
there isn't going to be a blurred line, I think
you're fooling yourself.
Speaker 6 (30:31):
I think Spot is trying to say that the relationship
is now going to change.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Yes, and there is no other way around it.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
The relationship that they've had with this podcast, it actually
needs to change. And if it doesn't, that creates another problem.
If their relationship doesn't change, but it should.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
You know, the monkey wrench in all of this, What
if Lebron just opts out and goes to Dallas.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Yeah, okay, that's not gonna happen, right, but that's a meme.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
That's the meme right now though, which would be hysterical.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
It is interesting because you got to think of so
many layers, right, Like, do the other Lakers who all
have respected Lebron team leader veteran? Are they like yo,
he got his boy JJ Reddick? You know, those whispers
probably happen. There may be people that are texting among
the Lakers staff and players, like anyone with the les
and ears could speculate on. This is what the Lakers
(31:22):
and Lebron wanted all along, and he got what he wanted,
his boy as the coach because that essentially keeps Lebron
in charge in a lot of ways.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
It's not pronounced because you remember weeks ago Lebron said,
I want the Lakers to find a coach for the
long run. Don't involve me necessarily. We all know he
signed off on this, But the thing is that he's
trying to separate himself from the decision. What's more important
about Polinka's decision here and what did he say? He
(31:53):
said that he loved Reddick's ability to connect with players
and his high basketball IQ. He believes surrounding red with
an elite coaching staff will help shorten his learning curve
into his first coaching job, says a source close to
the team. So let's see what JJ Reddick has the
big question mark he surrounds himself right with, yeah, yeah,
(32:13):
is it going to be a Campbell situation in Antonio
Pierce type situation? How quick is this learning curve going
to be?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Rich? And this dynamic between him and Lebron is that
the be all end.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
All and success versus failure will also determine how the
media handles it, how the fans handled it. It it
like if the Lakers start out rough, Oh, it's going
to be critiqued to the high heavens if there. If
it works out, great, it's like DJ J Redick a
brilliant basketball mind. Look they got the right guy. So
(32:45):
the results will also be how it's perceived. And you know, Danny,
the other day we brought up all bringing up again
we all watch Winning Time on HBO. Pat Riley had
to assert himself because everyone was to remember when pat
Riley got prom moted. I know it's a different story
with JJ Reddick, but it was a story of oh
pat you know what's up man? And he had to
(33:06):
flip out for the team to be like, oh okay,
we gotta we gotta treat him like right, like they
knew him as the player.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Now had to coach the chalkboard. He hurt his hand.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, sometimes you have to go overly drastic to shed
that previous image, like child actors. You know we see
that all the time. Yeah, Jesse Spano for she had
a showgirl to wipe the image right, So yeah, JJ
reddicksonn have to throw his weight around and be like, Yo,
I'm not the guy you see on ESPN. I'm not
your colleague, I'm not your peer, I'm not Lebron's boy.
(33:36):
I'm the coach of the Lakers. He has to make
that known right away. And then there's also the speculation
of the the optics involved in Mozzi. You know was
talking about it before. Was Dan Hurley a decoy all along?
Speaker 6 (33:48):
We don't know, I think so it was just a
way for the Lakers to say we tried.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
We tried.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Jesse Spannel show Girls, good reference Jesse span That would
be like a host here doing an only fans page.
All right, let's get an update, manzy. What's going on?
Speaker 14 (34:04):
All right, guys, We know that it's a four year
deal for JJ Reddick and the Lakers. We don't know
the exact number just yet, but the Athletic reports that
it's in the neighborhood of about eight million per year.
Speaker 6 (34:16):
More NBA news, the Bulls are trading two time All
defensive guard Alex Caruso to ok See for guard Josh Giddy.
Some boxing news for you, Cavino Ryan Garcia has been
suspended one year following positive.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Tests for PDS.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
His victory over David Haney has now been overturned to
a no contest. He's going to forfeit the one million
and is going to be fined ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
You know what, though, Monci, everyone saw Garcia woop his ass.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
Yeah, so you know, think it matters.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
He's the victor in the court of public opinion here.
Well there you notice it's like you you may have
at one point taken away Reggie Bush's heisman, but we
saw him flip into the air right exactly. It's an
of that situation. Boxing fans sort of suffer here because
we don't get to see Ryan fight for another year.
That sucks. Everyone wants to see him and sing, which.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
Is probably why he tweeted that he retired.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Wasn't that yesterday?
Speaker 6 (35:03):
He probably knew this was coming out. Yeah, still all
Orioles against the Yankees. In fact, more Orioles fourteen to
five is the score. Top of the eighth in New York.
Aaron Judge did hit home run number twenty seven on
the season, which leads Major League Baseball, and the Dodgers
officially beat the Rockies five to three. It all started
with the leadoff homer from of course show Hey Otani
in the NFL Patriots and running back Fromandre Stevenson agreed
(35:25):
on a four year extension worth thirty six million, including
seventeen million guaranteed. Tom cam is in the lead at
the first round of the Travelers Championship.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
He's eight under par overall.
Speaker 6 (35:34):
Four golfers are two shots back, Scottie Scheffler three shots back,
along with six others.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Back to you guys, you getna pull in a position
player to pitch? Or what your Yankees? Yes, so gonna
throw it in?
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Or what?
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Why not throwing Ben Rice?
Speaker 6 (35:49):
They've gone through seven pitchers.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Throw Imagine Aaron Judge gets up there looking like Randy Johnstone.
Why not let him do it? Let me get a
strikeout and take the chance. You know what, Moncey, do
you really back to Monzi, though, you really think that
Dan Hurley, like you could speculate? It does seem like
it was obvious all along they got the guy that
they really wanted in JJ Reddick. Was Dan Hurley all
(36:13):
just for optics? Was it just a decoy? Did they
know he was never going to accept the job anyway?
Speaker 6 (36:18):
There's just you know, it doesn't make sense the order
of events doesn't make sense for it to not be
a decoy. We heard JJ Reddick when he was asked
about the Lakers job, and he said, I'll address this
after the finals, pretty plain and simple. Also, if you
were interested in Dan Hurley, why weren't you talking to
him the minute it was over in March when they
won the championship. If you wanted him that badly, why
weren't the conversations starting back then?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Why did they start all of a sudden.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
Now I saw it as an ESPN versus the athletic
That's really what I thought that was all about.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
So JJ Reddick again, four years, approximately eight million dollars,
he is the coach. So we ask you Fox Sports
Radio Nation, since he's so tight with Lebron minding the game,
the podcast, buddy chummy working with friends or so when
that's younger, how do you feel about it? We'll take
your feedback next sere on FSR. You guys, okay, if
(37:09):
I wish my buddy Lionel Richie a happy birthday. Cavino
and rich on Fox Sports Radio speaking of our bonus
podcast over promised premieres in ten minutes, So join us
live on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. Speaking of Lionel Richie,
A lot of young kids only know him as an
American idol judge, believe it or not. They don't know
(37:32):
him from the Commodores. They don't know Hello, they don't
know he was dancing on the ceiling. So we're gonna
go over reminders of what made people famous. Some people
forget man, some people, young people, they don't recognize Charles
Barkley as a beast of a basketball player. They only
know him as the fat guy on TNT. Right, So
(37:54):
reminders on what made people famous, plus funny sports accessories.
There's a reason we bring that up on over promised,
funny but memorable sports accessories and athletes who came out
of retirement because of the Ryan Garcia news. That's all
(38:14):
on over promise. Because we don't have enough time today,
nice Fox Sports Radios YouTube page. In ten minutes, please
join us live, send the link to some friends. We
appreciate it, and remember tomorrow. Are we gonna play it again?
Chipotle worker or WNBA player, See if Covino could get
a second double? Yeah, yeah, we'll do that. This is
a game I'm good at. By the way, someone else
who celebrates a birthday today if you want to feel
(38:36):
a little old because he's best known, he's best known
for having a fake ID. McLevin Christopher mince Plos is
thirty five years old. So a guy that we know
that was trying to scheme a fake ID in a
movie is thirty five years old. Mccleven. So, would you
(38:56):
say one of the better movies of the two thousands?
Speaker 3 (38:59):
Oh, one of the best comedies.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Yeah, one of the least quitible movies for sure.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
It's the coolest way I've ever heard of my entire life.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Anyway, we're live from the tyrank dot Com Studios. Cavino
and Rich Now final thoughts, Rich on this JJ Reddick news. Ah,
how do you feel about working with friends? And look,
do you want to stress? Surround yourself with people that
you like, but you also have to be able to
take constructive criticism from friends. That's that's awkward in the workplace.
(39:28):
What if that person is younger than you, that could
be an awkward dynamic. Like we said, him and Lebron
are the same age, so that's fine, but they are close.
Is that going to rub the other players in a
weird way? I mean the fact that they were friendly
enough to be like, yeah, let's see a podcast together
and that that respect, I think it's gonna be great
if the Lakers are good, if their struggles struggling Joe
(39:50):
Namath style. If they're struggling, then it's gonna it's gonna
be very very awkward, right, very very very awkward, because
you know, the other the the teammates might be like, yo,
that's his boy, that's Lebron's boy. Like, there's gonna be
a lot of that unless I, as I said the
other day JJ Reddick when we were speculating would he
(40:10):
get the job? Remember I said, Danny, he might have
to pull some like fake Shenanigans where he like publicly
yells at Lebron from the other guys just to like,
I mean business. I'd be like, yo, Bronni, I won't
really mean it, but I gotta I gotta show my assertion.
I got it. Not a bad idea.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
Yeah, And I asked you, is he a better actor
than Lebron?
Speaker 1 (40:29):
You gotta Lebron ten laps? What you heard me? The
post games will definitely be interesting, right. The press conferences, well,
you hit us up at Covino and Rich and enjoy this.
Rick wood Field game on Fox Sports, cause I'm telling
you now, the coverage looks fantastic. Giants Cardinals again from Birmingham, Alabama,
(40:52):
the Degro League. Yeah, on Fox it looks really cool.
Like the field the Dreams Game. I always thought that
was a cool moment for MLB. This reminds me of
that and it has more meaning behind any any gimmicky
fun and I say gimmicky not in a bad way,
like feel the Dreams Game, paying tribute to the Negro leagues.
(41:13):
All these things are great for baseball. Anything that takes
you off the mundane one hundred and sixty two game
once or twice a week, off schedule. I think it's
great seeing big poppy jets a Rod talking to greats
like Reggie. They had Barry, Barry Bonds and Gritty Jr.
At the same time, just talking about their favorite black athletes.
And it's a It's a great thing for the game.
(41:33):
In watching the Yankees being pummeled sixteenth to five, exactly,
here's the true question. Would you still watch this game?
Speaker 3 (41:39):
He would have it on.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
In the bath round? Why he would have this dinner
phone going Not Pagan, You're the equivalent of a little
boy with an iPad. All right, we'll see you guys tomorrow,

promises and underdelivers. So we're in the middle of old
(01:27):
school and fifty hits. Jaws came out forty nine years
ago today scared the Bejesus out of us. Well before
the movie people didn't have an irrational fear of a
Shark's Gonna Eat Me came out in nineteen seventy five.
It's a classic. So based on that, movies or shows
that totally changed the way you think, fed you up,
(01:50):
scared you gave you an irrational fear, and Rich a
show that I don't even watch, but I know the
reference has to do with a coffee pot, Am I right?
Oh that's uh no, actually not a coffee pot at all,
but I know where you were going. Crockpot, A crockpot,
That's what I meant. This is Us, which is a
show I missed very much. I was a drama that
made me cry every week I watched the Greek version
(02:11):
This is Gus. It was way better, and this is Gus.
It was a coffee pot. Yeah that's yeah, this is
Gus and this is Us. It was a crockpot. Ye Jack,
my little vent Amilia spoiler, he dies as you know
on the show. But it was because they left a crockpot,
a faulty crock pot plugged in. Now I've never yeah,
I've never seen the show, and I could give a
(02:32):
Diddley squat about it. Right, I need a show to
make me cry. My point is I know that because
of that show, a lot of people double second triple
guest that I unplugged the crockpot and they can't rest
the entire day, but wondering if that's going to set
their house on. I do remember that when that episode aired,
(02:52):
because that show was big for NBC. When that Jack
dies Crockpot episode was on that next month, there was
an uptick in people buying new crock pots, thinking, oh
my god, what if I have an old faulty one.
So listen, movies and TV affect us Allah Jaws on
this date, forty nine years ago, just the theme alone
(03:13):
got you all freaked out. I brought up one before
we went to commercial, which I think is definitely one.
If you watch all those silly, fun final destination movies,
you do see a truck with lumber on it, a
bunch of logs. You are not riding behind that. Based
on the second one or some votto it is with
like a giant couch and all his furniture strapped in
(03:36):
with a shoelace. I'm not driving behind that guy because
I saw in the movie.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
How Not Happening, Oh when the girl got stuck in
the tanning bed?
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Ever since?
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Oh yeah, if I see one of the lay down
tanning bed tanning swan beds, I'm like, I don't know
who can be comfortable laying in there?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Get trapped, burned to death? It I got got another
one that I don't know.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
You.
Speaker 1 (04:03):
I don't know what this is from, because I feel
like there's multiple answers. But every time I go to
my car late at night, I always look underneath my
car because there was some movie where someone got their
achilles like sliced, and I'm like, I have seen that?
Speaker 5 (04:17):
Is it?
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Saw it saw? Or it might have been yeah, but
I feel like it was Also there was a his
Achilles slide. But I just remember that, like there's also
in Casino Casino into the film where that's it yep,
casino and saw the idea that someone's hiding underneath your car. Yeah,
and like that that tender back you're right there of
your ankle, it's called actually man, that makes me a
(04:42):
little a little scared.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
I was thinking of one movie that scared every man
who saw it, even us as kids. Fatal Attraction.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Mmmm.
Speaker 6 (04:51):
That one is just more like you feel like, oh
my gosh, this could happen at home, right, Like it's.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Just it's well with the bunny cooking.
Speaker 6 (04:57):
Yeah, just because it wasn't like a a creature that
doesn't exist like you know, because for me, jeeper screepers
scared me where I thought something was going to land
on my car any single time I'm driving down the
highway alone, you know what I mean? Or like World
War Z, like those zombies. I was like, if those
zombies are the ones that take over, we're done. We
could deal with walking dead zombies, not world world World
(05:18):
Wars no matter.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Yeah, those got like they got Tyreek killspeed, right. Walking
dead zombies are like uh pocket right.
Speaker 6 (05:26):
But I feel like fatal attraction, you know, was it
something that's not real?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
You guys all being radio masters and loving audio, you
can relate to this and appreciate it because we are
in the business of sound. It was not the costumes
at all. And Covino, you could back me up on this.
There were these these things called reruns back.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
In the day.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
As little kids in the early eighties, they played reruns
of Land of the Lost Love that.
Speaker 4 (05:48):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Oh, and when the dad and his two kids would
go into the slee stack cave the sounds, Sam has it.
I think the sound scared the crap out of me
when they were coming.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Yeah, I think I kissed anytime. Danny.
Speaker 7 (06:06):
Here's a sicatah freaking John Sicata shouts out to sid
and Marty Kroft.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
When they weren't being chased by really bad graphics of dinosaurs.
These sleistack costumes. When you see them now they are hilarious,
like they are such bad costumes. But as a little kid,
hearing that noise and seeing them chase the family, you
were scared to death.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
I was so into that show, and I was little
irrational fears hit us up. We got more answers, but
I don't want to Take Away Yours eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox, based on Jaws again forty nine
years ago. Today, Meg in Montana, what a pirana covinn Retchay? Meg, Hey, guys,
what's up?
Speaker 4 (06:48):
You hit the nail on the head with the Final
Destination two. I was thirteen having a sleepover with the galpal.
We watched that movie late at night. The power went out,
which did not help, so we ended up staying up
all night watched the whole thing twice since we got interrupted.
(07:08):
The next morning, her parents came to pick us up
and we were gonna go for a nice boat ride
on the lake, towing the boat in the car with
her family. There was a truck in front of us.
It did not have logs on it, but it was.
Speaker 8 (07:24):
Like a big water truck.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
We could see something flashing around in this big bin.
All of a sudden, this guy goes to turn right
way too fast. The truck flips over right in front
of us, rolls into the ditch. Her dad had to
slam on the brakes, fish tailed the boat.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Us.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
Poor girls in the back seat were screaming like ban cheese, scared.
We're so traumatized. Luckily everyone was Okay. It turned out
it was just water in the truck, nothing flammable, no explosions.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
Still and my.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
Heart's beating just for you telling the story.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Most scary, great story back in the back in the
eighties and nineties, My goodness, when I mess with my
little brother because he had my Buddy Doll, and when
Child's Play came out, I tried to convince my little
brother that his my Buddy doll would come to life.
Just having that doll was scared in the house, would
(08:23):
scare me because of the movie. Probably my sister had
that doll. I have that doll, spot still has. He
was my best friend. Explains a lot, Kaylon in South Dakota.
Let's up, Kaylin.
Speaker 9 (08:35):
So you mention it, you still my answer, But yeah,
Child's Playing. When I was about ten years old, my
buddies were a couple of years older than I am.
Grew up in small town South Dakota.
Speaker 10 (08:45):
Watch Child's Play.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
They didn't even have to convince me. I was sure
that my Diamond Dallas Page stuff you're wrestling, buddy was
gonna end up coming up and murdered me. Could you
watch Diamond Dallas Page murder people in the ring? Every week,
you were determined that the doll was going.
Speaker 10 (08:59):
To do it to you.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
I got too. Thank you, man. I'm sorry Rich Stele
your answer. What a selfish guy he is? Am I right?
I didn't know what his answer was. Guy waited on
hold just to say that, and you had to butt
in there and ruin his answer. I got one once
kind of sports related because it is Fox Sports Radio.
It could be anything you say. You never want to
be the goat, like with the old school goat, the
guy who ruins the game. You know, based on some
(09:21):
movies you may have seen, but pre gps, any wrong
turn I made, I thought, man, I could end up
in some dangerous situations, especially out here in LA. You
make one wrong turn, you could be like in the
worst neighborhood. Same thing with on the East Coast. And
after seeing the movie Judgment Night, which maybe most people
(09:44):
haven't seen but I recommend it, like they end up
they're having a sweet dude's night out and then they
get lost in all hell ensues, right We're talking murder
and death and like ah, because they end up in
the worst part of town and they get involved where
they shouldn't be involved. So anytime I was lost somewhere
and it is back in the day again before GPS, like,
oh no, I'm gonna die. This is where it goes down.
(10:06):
This is where and sports related, just based on what
I saw Steve Bartman go through. Anytime a foul ball
comes into the vicinity of where I am, I just
know instinctively to back off, because I don't ever want
to be perceived as the guy like that, the dufist
who ruined. I wish that would happen to you. You know,
I've learned, you know, just based on the fear of
(10:28):
watching this guy's like it ruined. Listen. It's all because
this is the anniversary of Jaws, which a lot of
people argue has had the most psychological effect on human
fear than any other movie, because again, sharks are not
considered scary to the general public until Jaws. But I'll
tell you what, We're always considered scary at least. Aren't
(10:48):
you scared of sharknadoes now too? I heard I look
up in the sky every day hoping this is not
one spot. I know that you were affected as a
young boy by a rachnophobia, Is that true? Not that
I was affected? I am unable to watch that. Wow,
I love that movie. I'm unable it is. It's a
rough one. Irrational fears, Allah, Jaws, Spider and the Helmet. Oh,
(11:12):
it's so creepy. All right, let's say how did Jennifer
Jennifer and Michigan.
Speaker 9 (11:16):
Hi Jane stop it good A good evening to you, guys.
Speaker 8 (11:22):
I have to tell you.
Speaker 4 (11:24):
When I was thirteen, I spent the night at a
friend's house. Her and her grandmother didn't ask my mom
if they could take me to see pet cemetery too.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Sounds scared now, man, I had nightmares for two weeks.
I did you assume she had like a dying sister
in the other bedroom? Because that movie will freak you out.
You know what scared me as a kill? Is that
a name? Yeah, it's scared me because I know it
wasn't I know it wasn't real. Even as a kid,
I knew it wasn't real. But did anyone else feel
(11:55):
like the cgi of Large March and Pee's Big Adventure
did that? That's scared to never? You know, get in
a car with a stranger, that'sh they have a Large March.
I've seen that part of the movie. Uh, let's go
to it jar and tell him large March sent you
Ron and Reno. Hey, Ron, how you doing? Hey? What's
(12:17):
up about?
Speaker 10 (12:18):
I remember back in nineteen eighty when the movie came out,
I saw it in the theater. Was the Shining Oh yeah,
And that one, that one took me for a loop.
I was buying myself and I was fifteen years old,
so that one, that one had a remarkable effect on me,
that's for sure.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Thank you man. You know you reminded me of something else.
This is true. I was in Ohi, California with my ex,
so it was my previous life, right. I went to
Ohi and I stayed at this airbnb or just like
a house rent all the time. I don't even know
if it was an airbnb.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
It around. Did guys see the famous pink sunset?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
No, dude, but I stayed at this place in the
middle of nowhere, right, and I just felt so helpless
and unsafe because I was really in the middle of nowhere.
It's just you and the stars. And I started hearing
all these crazy noises and I had this irrational fear
take over me, just based on the movie The Strangers,
Remember the Strangers, and they come knocking on the door
at night and like, I'm like, wait, I'm gonna be
(13:15):
the guy to fight off. That's why I don't watch
scary movies anymore. I think that's the last scary movie
I watched, so whatever year, that came out as the
last one because I was at this place and I
felt like such a weenie. I was so scared, my
ex was scared. We left that place in the middle
of the night because of the irrational fear of that movie.
True story was that the one during the preview, it
(13:36):
had the record play like yes, Yes with Lim Tyler.
That's it. By the way, highly recommend.
Speaker 6 (13:43):
That movie if you haven't seen it, seen it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
But it was so good. I have watched a scary
movie since. That's how long it's been. Yeah, I'm trying
to think of some good ones. But hey, the phones
were all lit. So let's say rapid fire, shall we?
Speaker 9 (13:58):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (13:58):
Jimmy in Texas? Up, Jimmy, Joe?
Speaker 8 (14:02):
What's up at my nose?
Speaker 1 (14:03):
What's d Hey?
Speaker 11 (14:06):
Guys, just says I know you'll like to put a
bow on things. I just gotta say. The mom and
this know you was such a fluzie that I didn't
realize it until I watched the movie again as an
older As an older perspective.
Speaker 1 (14:19):
Kujo, oh, Kujo, Yeah, I remember Kujo.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Look what floozy the mom was.
Speaker 11 (14:25):
But yeah, but yeah, after that, I made sure my
dog never like chase breakfasts and any other animal outside.
Speaker 10 (14:31):
I was like, you're gonna get raby.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Is like Kujo and the Blob were like my mom's fears.
I feel like things you remember your parents were scared of,
like the blob Kujo. Isn't that why she was so
scared that your brother was getting fat? Yeah? She want
him turn into the blob, the blob. Let's say hi
to Jay in Missouri.
Speaker 8 (14:52):
How you doing, Hey, Carino? You follow me everywhere I go.
I listened to you every day and drive time and
then Saturday more I turn around. There you are on
Ozzy's bone yard.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Oh my dog duty. I'm everywhere man, and they'll step
on I know.
Speaker 8 (15:06):
I know. It's like I'm older than you, guys, and
my freaked out. Movie movies usually don't freak me out
because they're movies and they're make believe. But I was
eight years old the summer of the Manson Murders, and
then they had a TV movie of the week on
Helter Skelter, based on Buliosi's book, and I was about
fourteen years old, and I was freaked out because you know,
(15:29):
the Manson was coming in in the middle of the night.
So yeah, anyway, I just want to say tick it going.
Speaker 4 (15:36):
We Love you on Ozzy And yeah, my movie.
Speaker 8 (15:39):
That freaked me out was Helter Skelter Jay.
Speaker 1 (15:42):
That was a great one and inspired another irrational fear
for me as a kid. We grew up. I grew
up in the eighties, right, and that's the decade of kidnappings.
I'll Adam Walls style, you know, so you thought that
every van that pulled up in your neighborhood was gonna
kidnap you and I lived in that fear of I'm
(16:05):
gonna get kidnapped. We all lived in the fear of
a white van gonna take us, people are strangers giving
us candy. All irrational fears which could have been reality.
But you know, we lived in that fear because of
the stuff we saw on news and after school movies
and things like that. So based on Jaws, guys, the
irrational fears based on movies and shows you saw growing up.
(16:27):
Let's say, how did Jay and Kentucky. What's up, Jake.
We're good.
Speaker 10 (16:32):
So this one's particularly scary because you know that they
live in your house.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
Yeah, we mentioned that spot particularly scared of spiders. I
don't know where that came from, it just developed. I mean,
that was a creepy movie, you know what I mean.
That's a that's a one time watch. Watch when you're
at an airbnb or a place you're not really that
familiar with, don't you doesn't it cross your mind and
(17:00):
you're laying there that they could be cameras watching you
based on things you've seen on TV, like weird movies.
Speaker 7 (17:05):
I mean I check every like closet and under the bed,
and I do the shower. I always pull back the
shower curtain.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
I swear every every fire alarm or any every blinking light.
I'm like, they're taping some creeps. I put out a
show for him. Yeah, you know, you made.
Speaker 2 (17:20):
Me think of older movies and it's scared a crap
out of me when I was a little kid. You
claim it's one of the best movies of all time.
When we did our movie draft Wizard of Oz, that
scared kids all across the monkeys, No, the Wicked Witch
of the Yeah, the Wicked Witch was creepy.
Speaker 1 (17:38):
Oh the worst. She was super scary for sure, just
her laugh. Oh hell yeah, you mind pretty and you're
a little dog, Danny scared? Uh oh well, uh you
want to say how to rob and wrap it up? Oh,
let's tuck to Rob Robin Texas, Hey, Bud.
Speaker 10 (18:00):
Scariest movie I ever saw as a kid was in
the eighties, the day after when they made for TV
Nuclear Holocaust on TV. I can't believe my parents want
to watch it.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
Dude. Any time you're driving through a cornfield or any
desolate area, you're thinking Children of the corn Rich. When
you and I were on a road trip and we
were lost, when we were lost, oh I know where
we were actually felt so scared, and it's all rational
fears based on movies we saw. There wasn't a person
in sight, irrational wore some frequent of chainsaws gonna gek right,
So let me ask I was Sam now because he
is from the home of corn So Danny, g I'm
(18:32):
curious you Mansei, this is an interesting thought. So we're
driving on a coveno on Rich road trip. We love
doing these live broadcasts. In fact, we're gonna be doing
more a graduate hotel. But back in the serious XM days,
we would do five cities in like five days. We
started in Dallas one year and ended up in Minneapolis,
(18:52):
stopping in cities along the way. I remember spot. We
were like, oh, wow, Saint Olaf, Minnesota, which is the
home of st.
Speaker 3 (19:00):
All Off College.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
No like Golden Girls, Yes, thank you, but also saying
all Off College Rose Island.
Speaker 1 (19:05):
Most people think Rose from the Golden Girl. I didn't
know no idea. So we're like, oh, on the way,
we're going through these cornfields that it is creepy, like
have you no said out of a movie. We had
taken along our associate producer, this young dude, Jake, and
he was a kid, didn't have much money. We're like
we started saying like I'll throw one hundred, you throw
(19:25):
one hundred. We had hundreds of dollars, Like, dude, get
out of the car, run twenty feet into the cornfield
and we're going to turn the lights in the car
out and he's like, no, we're not about a kid
that was broke, And like, all right, dude, thousand dollars
and he's like no. Irrational fear kept him in. I
would say when we were like, run into the cornfield,
We're going to turn the car lights out, pitch dark,
running the cornfield for thirty seconds.
Speaker 12 (19:46):
Absolutely, I have no fear of corn but you can
get lost in cornfields, like you have to if it's
there's no if like if it's overcast, you can't see
where the sun is, you don't know where you came from,
you can definitely get lost. I'm not afraid of running
into the corn I've done that before, dark desolate road, cornfields, everywhere.
We turn the car lights off and say, Monzi, go
run the cornfield thirty seconds.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
We'll give you a thousand dollars. You know, I think
I could do it. I'm not as a hous bucks. Yeah,
for a thousand bucks, I think I could do it.
How about this.
Speaker 6 (20:14):
I may be crying as I'm doing it, but I'll
do it.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
You guys so much. You know it's I think it's
interrational fear, just based on what experts tell me. But
anytime I'm feeling turbulence, I feel like I feel like
Twilight something. Wait exactly, I'm like, there's a there's an
alien guy. You ever see Twilight Zone or Twilights on
the movie they want William Shatner and the remake. Like
(20:41):
I swear there's a monster on the wing and that's
why we're all gonna die on this plane. This is horrible.
So anyway, that's our story. Guys. You could add to
the add to the conversation at Covino and Rich hashtag

lot of leg today. Spot's showing some upper Harry MANTHI yeah,
I'm seeing the upper whites of his thighs. And that's
(23:13):
what that short John stocked. And anyway, I'm Cavino, that
is Rich, Danny g Iowa, Sam Monci. Before we dive
into JJ Reddick Rich, I just want to make an
announcement real quick. Okay, I wouldn't say it's breaking news,
but it is.
Speaker 3 (23:26):
It is.
Speaker 1 (23:28):
Ryan Garcia is in the news. You know, he announced
his retirement and people like whatever. This dude just says
things left and right. Devin Haney is officially undefeated. His
loss to Ryan was changed to a no contest, and
Ryan's been suspended by the New York Athletic Committee Commission indefinitely,
(23:50):
I think for a year. And then Ryan has gone
to social media saying, look at this cry baby getting
what he wants. I never cheated. I can't believe they
banned me for a year. I hate all y'all fake people.
Boxing sucks. I'm going to the UFC. So now the
kid who may have had the greatest knockout of the year,
(24:11):
the win is taken away Devin Haney's undefeated still and
now he's gone for a year.
Speaker 7 (24:15):
He also has to pay back the one point one
million dollar person as well as a ten thousand dollars
fine again because he has I guess you would call
it a what was it contaminated substance?
Speaker 1 (24:28):
Contaminated supplements? Wow, that tested positive for austering. Well well, well,
so that's the update there. And I do want to
say I'm watching some of the coverage from Rickwood Field.
Very cool to see them do this on Fox Sports
against the Giants and Cardinals tonight. So when you get home,
definitely put it on. My first takeaway was that Barry
(24:50):
bonslook's fantastic. He looks great. But again, it's in Birmingham, Alabama,
one of the Negro League fields, and they're paying tribute
to Willie Mays and all the Negro League players the
in a game there. The field was from nineteen ten.
It's really cool to see like them playing a major
league game at this old school field. Well, Griffy Jr.
And Bonds are chopping it up with a Rod and
(25:13):
Big Poppy and Jeter and I'll tell you it's it's
it's so apparent that when dudes, let the gray come
in a bunch like it ages like Griffy looks ten
and fifteen years older than Barry Bonds. Barry Bonds looks fantastic.
Barry Bonds also featured on Ken Golden's King of Collectibles.
(25:34):
On that, Reggie, is that Richie Jackson drun in the panel?
Is it? Yes, Reggie, That's what I'm saying. This is
a really cool moment that the fact that they're playing
at this old been a big deal for the black
players in baseball. Attribute to the Negro leagues. You'll see
some of the highlights when you get home later. Enjoy that.
A couple of the quick notes before we get to
JJ Reddick, Lebron and Monci's update, we're talking about movies
(25:57):
that affect us and off the air. We're saying, how
horror movies, you know, doing number on you. Little things
you do like everyant this irrational fear they plant to see. Dude,
if I watch some scary crap with my wife, I'm
just watching a late night movie. When I go to
the bathroom and I'm brushing my teeth or washing my face,
I always feel like, and you know, when movies when
there's no one in the mirror. You look down and
(26:17):
then when you look up, someone's behind you. Like aha,
I always feel like when I'm brushing my teeth in
the mirror after watching something scary, I'm gonna look down
for a second, spit out my toothpaste, look up, and
someone's gonna be behind me, like or someone's gonna be
in your back seat. Yeah, I do that, and I
realize it's just me in the mirror. So that on
a lighter note, not so much fear because of the
(26:40):
movie Slum Dug Millionaire. Anytime something dumb happens in my life,
I'm like, maybe this is just like something I'm supposed
to remember from my moments, Like maybe this will be
my question when I'm on like a game show. That's
a lot of stuff to remember. And trumanshaw I affected
a lot of people because there are people that think, like,
you know, maybe this is a simulation.
Speaker 7 (26:57):
I mean, that's just the matrix did that so well?
All the movies that affect you.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
Again, you could hit us up at coven on Rich
now before we get to Monty for an update, because
I know Montio thoughts on JJ Reddick and lebron I
mentioned this the other day COVI when you weren't here.
So I'm curious about your thoughts. As we all get older,
you go from twenty thirty forty fifty. As we all
get older, the people you work with and work for
end up being your contemporaries. They end up being people
(27:25):
you could have graduated high school with, people that you
look at and say, yeah, they're five years younger than
me and they're the boss. They earned it, or maybe
they didn't. JJ Reddick and Lebron James just to play
step boy, both born in nineteen eighty four, both thirty
nine going on forty years old, and you got to
(27:45):
say to yourself, does Lebron and JJ Reddick have too
much of like a bro friendship? They did the podcast together.
Can you separate that stuff when it comes to on
the court and off the court. I think it's all
great in theory.
Speaker 3 (27:59):
I do.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I think it sounds fun, But there's always gonna be
that blurred line of friendship and work relationship, and it's
always difficult. It's difficult with our show sometimes. I mean,
you know, we're all friends, but yeah, it's a blurred
line of Hey, this isn't like friend related, this is
like work related, and I don't know how that doesn't
(28:20):
bleed into the NBA with their relationship. Again, he hosts
podcast together. It's a great way to start, but there
has to be a line drawn right from the get go.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
I've worked with you two for twenty years.
Speaker 1 (28:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 7 (28:31):
If let's say, like our boss Scott got promoted to like,
you know, senior VP or whatever, and he's like, oh,
I need someone to kind of run the station. We've
been eyeing you up. This will never happen, by the way,
you mean, we're twenty five. I would be like one
hundred and fifty on the list. But let's say that
happened and I became your boss, would you listen to me?
Speaker 1 (28:48):
I would quit before listening to you, exactly.
Speaker 7 (28:52):
Like you would still see me as your little sidekick producer.
Speaker 1 (28:56):
You wouldn't respect me.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
Yeah, but JJ Reddick played in the league for fifteen
years and has played in the league for twenty. Okay,
but I think this is slightly different though.
Speaker 7 (29:06):
Yeah, what I mean, it's about listening to someone who's
your peer who then becomes your boss.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
I know he's guarded respecs along the way and always
did in every locker room that he played in. It's
a different type and he has that great type of
reputation with his peers as a as a you were
when you're someone's peer, you're in the same room. When
you become like senior level, executive level, boss level, you're
(29:32):
now in different rooms than that person is making different
types of decisions, having different types of responsibilities. But he
was You don't see that. He isn't going to see that.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
He wasn't like a young assistant on the Lakers working
with Lebron though they played in the league at the
same time together as peers.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
They were in the same room.
Speaker 7 (29:49):
Now they're in different rooms, and there's a different type
of responsibility on JJ Reddick that Lebron doesn't have to
worry about.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
There's things that seem or may appear unfair with this
relationship that do happen in every officer workplace everywhere. Like
you may think to yourself, well, it's a little awkward
that him and Lebron are going to have this sort
of friendship and this camaraderie and this understanding, this closeness
that JJ Reddick and the other players aren't going to have.
But that also applies to most workplaces. I might be
(30:18):
closer to the Boss than Danny g Is or vice versa.
I'm just saying that's just how life works. Sometimes relationships
are like that sometimes. But you know, to say that
there isn't going to be a blurred line, I think
you're fooling yourself.
Speaker 6 (30:31):
I think Spot is trying to say that the relationship
is now going to change.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
Yes, and there is no other way around it.
Speaker 6 (30:39):
The relationship that they've had with this podcast, it actually
needs to change. And if it doesn't, that creates another problem.
If their relationship doesn't change, but it should.
Speaker 2 (30:50):
You know, the monkey wrench in all of this, What
if Lebron just opts out and goes to Dallas.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
Yeah, okay, that's not gonna happen, right, but that's a meme.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
That's the meme right now though, which would be hysterical.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
It is interesting because you got to think of so
many layers, right, Like, do the other Lakers who all
have respected Lebron team leader veteran? Are they like yo,
he got his boy JJ Reddick? You know, those whispers
probably happen. There may be people that are texting among
the Lakers staff and players, like anyone with the les
and ears could speculate on. This is what the Lakers
(31:22):
and Lebron wanted all along, and he got what he wanted,
his boy as the coach because that essentially keeps Lebron
in charge in a lot of ways.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
It's not pronounced because you remember weeks ago Lebron said,
I want the Lakers to find a coach for the
long run. Don't involve me necessarily. We all know he
signed off on this, But the thing is that he's
trying to separate himself from the decision. What's more important
about Polinka's decision here and what did he say? He
(31:53):
said that he loved Reddick's ability to connect with players
and his high basketball IQ. He believes surrounding red with
an elite coaching staff will help shorten his learning curve
into his first coaching job, says a source close to
the team. So let's see what JJ Reddick has the
big question mark he surrounds himself right with, yeah, yeah,
(32:13):
is it going to be a Campbell situation in Antonio
Pierce type situation? How quick is this learning curve going
to be?
Speaker 3 (32:19):
Rich? And this dynamic between him and Lebron is that
the be all end.
Speaker 1 (32:24):
All and success versus failure will also determine how the
media handles it, how the fans handled it. It it
like if the Lakers start out rough, Oh, it's going
to be critiqued to the high heavens if there. If
it works out, great, it's like DJ J Redick a
brilliant basketball mind. Look they got the right guy. So
(32:45):
the results will also be how it's perceived. And you know, Danny,
the other day we brought up all bringing up again
we all watch Winning Time on HBO. Pat Riley had
to assert himself because everyone was to remember when pat
Riley got prom moted. I know it's a different story
with JJ Reddick, but it was a story of oh
pat you know what's up man? And he had to
(33:06):
flip out for the team to be like, oh okay,
we gotta we gotta treat him like right, like they
knew him as the player.
Speaker 3 (33:11):
Now had to coach the chalkboard. He hurt his hand.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Well, sometimes you have to go overly drastic to shed
that previous image, like child actors. You know we see
that all the time. Yeah, Jesse Spano for she had
a showgirl to wipe the image right, So yeah, JJ
reddicksonn have to throw his weight around and be like, Yo,
I'm not the guy you see on ESPN. I'm not
your colleague, I'm not your peer, I'm not Lebron's boy.
(33:36):
I'm the coach of the Lakers. He has to make
that known right away. And then there's also the speculation
of the the optics involved in Mozzi. You know was
talking about it before. Was Dan Hurley a decoy all along?
Speaker 6 (33:48):
We don't know, I think so it was just a
way for the Lakers to say we tried.
Speaker 5 (33:54):
We tried.
Speaker 1 (33:55):
Jesse Spannel show Girls, good reference Jesse span That would
be like a host here doing an only fans page.
All right, let's get an update, manzy. What's going on?
Speaker 14 (34:04):
All right, guys, We know that it's a four year
deal for JJ Reddick and the Lakers. We don't know
the exact number just yet, but the Athletic reports that
it's in the neighborhood of about eight million per year.
Speaker 6 (34:16):
More NBA news, the Bulls are trading two time All
defensive guard Alex Caruso to ok See for guard Josh Giddy.
Some boxing news for you, Cavino Ryan Garcia has been
suspended one year following positive.
Speaker 1 (34:28):
Tests for PDS.
Speaker 6 (34:29):
His victory over David Haney has now been overturned to
a no contest. He's going to forfeit the one million
and is going to be fined ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (34:37):
You know what, though, Monci, everyone saw Garcia woop his ass.
Speaker 6 (34:40):
Yeah, so you know, think it matters.
Speaker 1 (34:41):
He's the victor in the court of public opinion here.
Well there you notice it's like you you may have
at one point taken away Reggie Bush's heisman, but we
saw him flip into the air right exactly. It's an
of that situation. Boxing fans sort of suffer here because
we don't get to see Ryan fight for another year.
That sucks. Everyone wants to see him and sing, which.
Speaker 6 (35:01):
Is probably why he tweeted that he retired.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
Wasn't that yesterday?
Speaker 6 (35:03):
He probably knew this was coming out. Yeah, still all
Orioles against the Yankees. In fact, more Orioles fourteen to
five is the score. Top of the eighth in New York.
Aaron Judge did hit home run number twenty seven on
the season, which leads Major League Baseball, and the Dodgers
officially beat the Rockies five to three. It all started
with the leadoff homer from of course show Hey Otani
in the NFL Patriots and running back Fromandre Stevenson agreed
(35:25):
on a four year extension worth thirty six million, including
seventeen million guaranteed. Tom cam is in the lead at
the first round of the Travelers Championship.
Speaker 1 (35:32):
He's eight under par overall.
Speaker 6 (35:34):
Four golfers are two shots back, Scottie Scheffler three shots back,
along with six others.
Speaker 1 (35:39):
Back to you guys, you getna pull in a position
player to pitch? Or what your Yankees? Yes, so gonna
throw it in?
Speaker 6 (35:47):
Or what?
Speaker 1 (35:47):
Why not throwing Ben Rice?
Speaker 6 (35:49):
They've gone through seven pitchers.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Throw Imagine Aaron Judge gets up there looking like Randy Johnstone.
Why not let him do it? Let me get a
strikeout and take the chance. You know what, Moncey, do
you really back to Monzi, though, you really think that
Dan Hurley, like you could speculate? It does seem like
it was obvious all along they got the guy that
they really wanted in JJ Reddick. Was Dan Hurley all
(36:13):
just for optics? Was it just a decoy? Did they
know he was never going to accept the job anyway?
Speaker 6 (36:18):
There's just you know, it doesn't make sense the order
of events doesn't make sense for it to not be
a decoy. We heard JJ Reddick when he was asked
about the Lakers job, and he said, I'll address this
after the finals, pretty plain and simple. Also, if you
were interested in Dan Hurley, why weren't you talking to
him the minute it was over in March when they
won the championship. If you wanted him that badly, why
weren't the conversations starting back then?
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Why did they start all of a sudden.
Speaker 6 (36:41):
Now I saw it as an ESPN versus the athletic
That's really what I thought that was all about.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
So JJ Reddick again, four years, approximately eight million dollars,
he is the coach. So we ask you Fox Sports
Radio Nation, since he's so tight with Lebron minding the game,
the podcast, buddy chummy working with friends or so when
that's younger, how do you feel about it? We'll take
your feedback next sere on FSR. You guys, okay, if
(37:09):
I wish my buddy Lionel Richie a happy birthday. Cavino
and rich on Fox Sports Radio speaking of our bonus
podcast over promised premieres in ten minutes, So join us
live on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. Speaking of Lionel Richie,
A lot of young kids only know him as an
American idol judge, believe it or not. They don't know
(37:32):
him from the Commodores. They don't know Hello, they don't
know he was dancing on the ceiling. So we're gonna
go over reminders of what made people famous. Some people
forget man, some people, young people, they don't recognize Charles
Barkley as a beast of a basketball player. They only
know him as the fat guy on TNT. Right, So
(37:54):
reminders on what made people famous, plus funny sports accessories.
There's a reason we bring that up on over promised,
funny but memorable sports accessories and athletes who came out
of retirement because of the Ryan Garcia news. That's all
(38:14):
on over promise. Because we don't have enough time today,
nice Fox Sports Radios YouTube page. In ten minutes, please
join us live, send the link to some friends. We
appreciate it, and remember tomorrow. Are we gonna play it again?
Chipotle worker or WNBA player, See if Covino could get
a second double? Yeah, yeah, we'll do that. This is
a game I'm good at. By the way, someone else
who celebrates a birthday today if you want to feel
(38:36):
a little old because he's best known, he's best known
for having a fake ID. McLevin Christopher mince Plos is
thirty five years old. So a guy that we know
that was trying to scheme a fake ID in a
movie is thirty five years old. Mccleven. So, would you
(38:56):
say one of the better movies of the two thousands?
Speaker 3 (38:59):
Oh, one of the best comedies.
Speaker 1 (39:00):
Yeah, one of the least quitible movies for sure.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
It's the coolest way I've ever heard of my entire life.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Anyway, we're live from the tyrank dot Com Studios. Cavino
and Rich Now final thoughts, Rich on this JJ Reddick news. Ah,
how do you feel about working with friends? And look,
do you want to stress? Surround yourself with people that
you like, but you also have to be able to
take constructive criticism from friends. That's that's awkward in the workplace.
(39:28):
What if that person is younger than you, that could
be an awkward dynamic. Like we said, him and Lebron
are the same age, so that's fine, but they are close.
Is that going to rub the other players in a
weird way? I mean the fact that they were friendly
enough to be like, yeah, let's see a podcast together
and that that respect, I think it's gonna be great
if the Lakers are good, if their struggles struggling Joe
(39:50):
Namath style. If they're struggling, then it's gonna it's gonna
be very very awkward, right, very very very awkward, because
you know, the other the the teammates might be like, yo,
that's his boy, that's Lebron's boy. Like, there's gonna be
a lot of that unless I, as I said the
other day JJ Reddick when we were speculating would he
(40:10):
get the job? Remember I said, Danny, he might have
to pull some like fake Shenanigans where he like publicly
yells at Lebron from the other guys just to like,
I mean business. I'd be like, yo, Bronni, I won't
really mean it, but I gotta I gotta show my assertion.
I got it. Not a bad idea.
Speaker 3 (40:26):
Yeah, And I asked you, is he a better actor
than Lebron?
Speaker 1 (40:29):
You gotta Lebron ten laps? What you heard me? The
post games will definitely be interesting, right. The press conferences, well,
you hit us up at Covino and Rich and enjoy this.
Rick wood Field game on Fox Sports, cause I'm telling
you now, the coverage looks fantastic. Giants Cardinals again from Birmingham, Alabama,
(40:52):
the Degro League. Yeah, on Fox it looks really cool.
Like the field the Dreams Game. I always thought that
was a cool moment for MLB. This reminds me of
that and it has more meaning behind any any gimmicky
fun and I say gimmicky not in a bad way,
like feel the Dreams Game, paying tribute to the Negro leagues.
(41:13):
All these things are great for baseball. Anything that takes
you off the mundane one hundred and sixty two game
once or twice a week, off schedule. I think it's
great seeing big poppy jets a Rod talking to greats
like Reggie. They had Barry, Barry Bonds and Gritty Jr.
At the same time, just talking about their favorite black athletes.
And it's a It's a great thing for the game.
(41:33):
In watching the Yankees being pummeled sixteenth to five, exactly,
here's the true question. Would you still watch this game?
Speaker 3 (41:39):
He would have it on.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
In the bath round? Why he would have this dinner
phone going Not Pagan, You're the equivalent of a little
boy with an iPad. All right, we'll see you guys tomorrow,
actually on over promised In a second, a riba thereci baby,
see you in the over promised land. Let's go.
