Kevin em every tell you about that JABRONI that was

then one day I had the courage to finally say, dude,
why do you call me Kevin? And He's like, well,
you know keV short for Kevin. Oh, Kevin's your name, right,
I'm like, you think that my name is Kevin?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
He thought everyone's calling you Kevin.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Oh he thought my name was Kevin. Oh, I'm like,
my name's Covino, Steve. He's like, I thought that was
like a nickname for Kevin.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I'm like, no, my name is Steve Covino. You can
stop calling me Kevin. Now what a great I thought
you were Kevin? Oh what Kevin? Always into disrespectively call
you Kevin from now on?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
This farst go for.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
It went on for me. It was a friend of
a friend who kept calling me keV. So eventually I'm like,
why do you call me keV? This is a Seinfeld
moment there the Susie is. I mean, it's Ted alexandro
bit too. Don't think I'm stealing it, because I'm not.
It really did happen to me, And that was the
last time I talked.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
To that guy. I was like, we're not friends anymore,
but any you deserve it.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I'll tell you why. I know all your dumb stories.
You were in college and you called this dude. Kavina's
the king of giving people people nicknames, any things they like.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Those those are terms of endearment. That means that you're
cool and you're one of us, like Kevino will be like,
there was a kid in high school had a big head.
We called them bunk was. We made him famous. I'm
famous for that.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I said, do you think that kid is like, thank
you Kavino for calling me bank Because we grew up
in a place where people didn't cry about these things.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
That was how we embraced them. That's how it was
in Union, New Jersey in the late nineteen hundreds. We
weren't a bunch of weenies like everybody today.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That's a fair point.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, And I know if all your nicknames were great.
So in college, I didn't know Kvino, but I know
the story. You know the intercoms Sam at the dorm rooms,
you'd buzz your friend in like, yo, it's me, I was, Sam,
let me up, and you'd buzz your friend in up
to your dorm room. Sure if the story, if I'm
telling the story correct, I know a story. There was
a guy that got on the inn at Covino's dorm.
(04:02):
I saw this guy and I kind of knew him,
and he was buzzing up to one of our mutual friends,
and I hear my mutual friends say, hello, who's this.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
He goes, it's Major Buddy. I'm like, major buddy, what
is this? This is their little nickname, Major Buddy. So
I saw that dude for the next four years and
I called him Major Buddy, and everybody called him major buddy.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
There he is, Major Buddy. That's a good one though, right, no, no, no,
but listen it is.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
So one day he finally gets the curage senior year, right, yeah,
last year of college. He's like, yo, ma, I don't
know why, but I need to know why do you
call me major buddy? Because it's stuck with him, and
everyone thought he was like some sort of you know,
colonel major buddy. Uh, some sort of military guy.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
And I said, because the first time I saw you
visiting the campus, you were hitting up our friends and
you were on the intercom saying, hey, it's major buddy.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So I thought that was stupid. And I don't know
I called you that four year nickname.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Four years later, he goes major Buddy. He's like, I
was probably saying it's me your buddy, dumb and oh
all right, until this day, everybody calls a major buddy
and that sums up Covino, and again.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
We carry on.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I hope you had a great weekend, guys. Dumb stories, nonsense, sports,
Iron Mike Trivia, we bring it all to you here
on the show. We're giving away prizes, so Iron Mike
stops by, but we're gonna do something called our Random
Olympic Recap, Our Random Olympic Recap. But today, before we
get to that, today was the first day of school
(05:38):
out here on the West Side.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So it's back to school. Back to school. Oh, back
to school today, Move to dad. I'm not a.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Food back to school, thank you, Sam Carpet creatures, that's right.
And I got my lunch packed up, my shoes tied tight.
Oh fight, and you know with doing it Thornton Mellon
style Today Triple Lindy's back to school.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
I was Sam had miss slippy right, here's your teacher.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah, yes, yes, yes, still hot sough. We want to
introduce something to you called the three photo rule because
today today, you know what the start of Today's the
start of not only all right, the Olympics are over,
so now what are we watching? Today's the start of
(06:30):
these nose picking, kids holding up that little board saying
first day of whatever, and when you're out in about
with your buds. They love to bust these photos out
as if you didn't see them already on Facebook or
social media, like, hey, I already saw your pumpkin pie
haircut of kid he started second grade.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Good for him. Anything else, I will say, though I saw.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
A sweet new backpack. I agree with Mike who runs
this place. Who Mike, who runs this place, who said,
as you get older and you're a parent, you got kids,
you don't hate it as much, not as much. And
you know, I rather dying as you've already seen him though.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, but I rather that than people fighting about politics
on social media. So I'll take your kid with a
stupid sign on your front stoop more than your take
on a Kamala Harris or Donald.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Saw your kid in his little bow tying bowl haircut
getting ready for school. I saw it, But they want
to show you anyway, and that's fine. Look, I have
a daughter who started high school today. That was a
whole experience in itself. Frantic new routine barely made it
on time. That traffic's back. But again, we want to
introduce to you the three photo rule. Yeah, this is
(07:39):
a rule I got to give our buddy Row in
Atlanta credit. He's a big Falcons fan, big Georgia Bulldogs fan.
You call him the Peruvian prints. Our Peruvian friend Row.
Row and I met up with the ones. We went
to go see a football game. We had not seen
each other in about a year. We're getting into the stadium,
(08:00):
we talk about family friends, how you been, haven't seen you?
And as we are about to do the typical y'all,
let me show you a picture, he goes, hold, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Stop you right there. I have a rule.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I was like, first of all, I seen most of
your vacation photos and your nose picking kids photos on
social media.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
But here's the rule.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
And I love this rule because it makes it forces
you to be selective. If you see an old pal,
an old college frat brother, anyone that you're catching up
with you haven't seen in a while, who made you buddy?
Speaker 1 (08:33):
It's me your buddy, you know, it's major buddy, my
old college pay colean out. It's me bank from high school.
Thanks major buddy.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
The rule is you're allowed to show that person three
one two three three photos in your phone. That's it,
As Mariano Duncan one said, right, we play today, we
win today. Yeah, Marianna Duncan, three photos. I was sam
(09:03):
if I haven't seen you in six months?
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yo, how you been bro? I get show?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Oh my kids on the first day, me and my
wife in Hawaii. Oh, we had a great time. Oh,
now I gotta be selective. Third photo.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
We should have three photos on standby. Here's my dog wuffles. Oh,
there's my kids on their first day of school.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Dude sweets. Here's my vacation or he oh sweet box
seats at the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
There there you go. Three photos.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
That's it, you know, I because it keeps people in
a good mood and you're not dragging it out, and
then you're not looking for like hold on, hold on,
I want you because everyone's always looking for that right one,
you know what I mean? And here's wasting time and
now you're tuned out and no one cares that much.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
It's the three photo rule. Do you agree or disagree?
I apply it to your life.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Can I be like Portnoy and cheat? What if one
of my three is a picture collage?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah? Okay? With that? I like okay, it works.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, so you get a multiple pictures of your kids
on their first day of school. Here's my daughter, here's
my son, and here's my dog on the first day
of school. Danny, if I haven't seen you in a while,
here's what I'm breaking out.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
If i'm you, I'm Danny j Yeah. Here's a great
picture of Coe his first birthday part first with the
shark cake and everything. Can't believe that being a guy.
Next photo, I'm Daddy Caviino and Rich and I We've
been traveling a lot. He's a cool live broadcast where
I was MC or doing great at work Graduate Hotel.
Now the third one's up to you, but it's no
(10:27):
one wants see twenty photos.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I love the three and let's just I don't know.
Rich loves smutty talk, so unlet's just something smutty. Rich
is tuned down, you know. Otherwise three is enough. Three
is enough. That's the three photo.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
And if you're single, yeah, don't talk about a hawk
earl you're hooking up with without a picture, useless, without past.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Honestly, it's like, yeah, dude, I met some hot show me.
No one wants to hear about her. Fantastic heine if
you don't have evidence.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Kay, honestly, So there you go. And that's all based
on the first day of school. And I do want
to bring up that's two things. No, no, no, two things.
One of them's kind of sports related but not really.
What's the number one league leading hat in all of sports?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Is there an answer?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, a baseball hat, a baseball cap. There's no other
answer to that. All right, are you asking what team
what they know? But do you know when we were kids,
we weren't allowed to wear hats to school. Now, these
little nose pickers are allowed to wear hats to school
here in La.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
In La is different, I understand. I'm just telling you
what I see.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I'm like, wait, so they could wear pajama pants, crocs,
and hats.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Now, we were allowed to wear hats out here on
the West Coast. Yes, what I'm saying we weren't allowed
to go. Yeah. I don't remember if we were allowed
to wear hats or not.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
I mean, no one gives a crap about my personal story,
but I'm gonna tell you anyway. I remember we were
in a school play and it was after school, right,
and my buddy Jeff was all about wearing his New
York Nick's hat during the playoffs, and the teachers like, Jeff,
take your hat off, and he's like, oh, miss Johnson,
I'm pretty sure this in after school curricular activity.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
She's like, no, hats, my buddy, Jeff goes. I quit.
He quit the school play because the teachers that take
off your hat.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Growing up from it was like going into a fine
dining Italian restaurant, you gotta take that hat off.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
And then there was the old school teachers would ask
you nicely to take it off in class, but you
still could wear it to school.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Now I'm seeing all these little Doyer fans with their
hats and their crocs out here in La so a
lot of hats when I dropped my daughter off to
high school today, and I just wanted to bring up
one of the coolest feelings ever. I'm going for baseball
hats to basketball sneakers. Was it not the coolest feeling ever?
You got to bust out your brand new kicks for
(12:48):
the start of the school year. I thought that was
the greatest thing. I think every kid has to have
the great feeling of wearing some brand new kicks. Now,
not every kid does it. Just it every year, but
that is just up there with the top five of
all time.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Butget aside because I don't want to insult anyone. Yeah,
if you're scraping by and you're just doing what you
need to do, I get it. You could get your
butt pay least shoes. Let me tell them you live.
You look at a kid on day one of school
in a nice area where you know, like the parents
have money, and he has dirty sneakers on day one
of school.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
You're being a.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Bad kids kind of like that dirty white Air Force one,
like crusty looking.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Look you know where their sweet lumpy Air Force ones.
That's kind of the style. Look, oh, my shoes are
like that.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
They like their oat meal and their Air Force ones
lumpy like beige shoes.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
I would say it's unintentionally in style.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
But always I'm telling you, I took a lot of
pride in buying my daughter some sweet new Air Force
ones yesterday and some Jordan's.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
She got two pair because their grades are good. So
just throwing that out there, first day of school, first.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Day of school.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
What I noticed baseball hats, basketball kicks, and I digest
the three photo rule. Got a little something, you know,
there's we're.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Gonna get into, Like you said, some Australian breakdancing is
who doesn't want to NFL A lot to get to today?
But you brought up sneakers and I'm not sure why
this bothers me so much. I feel like Sebastian Mena
Scalco's bothers me?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Who bothers you?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
My wife's from Texas and she calls all of my
kids sneakers tennis shoes, and I'm like, our kids aren't
andre Agasy? Look, but you know that, does Ben have
the sweet new Pete Sampras Swiss?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Look at my kid? My honey?
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Does does Ben look like Raffae on the doll tennis shoes?
We're watching tennis in the background here.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Your daughter got those sweet yvon Lindel's. I was like, uh,
does our donna look like Steviy Graff? What's going on here? Yeah?
I don't like that either? Oh she got the cocoat goffs.
Why does everyone call them tennis shoes? Regional thing?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's ridiculous. I like pop and soda. It's it's a
pop code. I get It's just a regional thing. I
get it, But you learned it in Spanish too. Zas
day tennis.
Speaker 5 (15:11):
Yes, yes, there you go. But because it's regional doesn't
make it right. There's people in parts of the country
that say rec's pieces.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
No, no, it's not. It's regional.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
So yeah, choose pick one kicks sneakers, tennis shoes.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Nah, that' stop flying.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I don't gym shoes is sort of the generic gym shoes.
That's weak. No, And by the way, I didn't know
this here.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
In La Where are you from Iowa?
Speaker 2 (15:36):
My daughter she's on the cheerleading team, which means she
doesn't have to take gym.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
They do cheering like in place of gym.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I'm like, what since when let me bring you back to.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Me in middle school or high school year was nineteen
ninety something. Let's just say that ninety something, right, we
would go all out gym, basketball, all county gym class,
by the way, all state gym class.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I went all out. We'd have sweaty ass and go
right to history class right afterward.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
It was pretty gross. We didn't shower in my high
school either, chower air conditioner. In our cinder block prison
of a school, we didn't have air, so we would
have sweaty ass from a mean volleyball game in gym
class and then be sitting in algebra right after. If
you want to talk about gym class, pe class, I'm
just saying school started today, rich, But I'm saying that
(16:28):
when we were.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Kidding, my daughter said, I don't have fyzette. I'm like,
what do you mean?
Speaker 3 (16:31):
You don't have fizet? She's like cheers in place of fyzit.
I was like, what they u When you think back,
we had I'm sure you did. The two We had
showers in our locker room, but no one ever used them.
They were unused. Everyone just and you needed one after
that stale gass penny they put. Everyone just put their
(16:52):
regular clothes back on, and you know, and you know
what was even grosser. I don't know how your high
school rolled. You're trying to kick it to some high
chick in your class. Meanwhile you're sweating from dodgeball and
the jim shorts and the T shirt you wore to
gym class. You would put in a plastic bag right
back in your locker and you would wear that danky
ass jym set again. And do you remember that smelling
(17:14):
everyone all of this smelling a penny smelling a penny
from nineteen sixty five.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
It was just gross.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
They never watched those pennies. Did you guys call them
pennies growing up?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
No, It's funny when you see like eighties movies like Footloose,
all it's like thirty year old actors and they're all
showering after Pean.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
We watched that.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Were like I graduated high school and we did that
in like a field camp for football and like double
session football camp things like that.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
But regular gym days, high school days.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
No way were we taking showers anyone here take that
because I'm I graduated high school in the late nineties.
I went to college in the early two thousands. Never
one time in high school or college did I shower
with other students.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Did you know you had any pride? You were going
all out?
Speaker 3 (18:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Did you ever shower the men?
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Were you ever in like a locker row showering as
like a seventeen year old?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
They were there. But did you anyone used them in football?
We did? Yeah, some guys keep their under after after
keep on for sure. That's a tradition.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
Like back in like you're serving like World War two,
men were just men and they showered together.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
They're like progression though, and that was like the generations
after that just not a thing you're comfortable. Damn buyer.
I was gonna say, I picture it was a naked shower.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No did you? Did you shower in high school?
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Not during class, but after a practice? You would you
that's what you're talking about, Like keep.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
No, yeah I would.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I used to, yeah for sure, but we're talking in
high school. When you're in seventh grade. Never you know,
stuff like that never happened, Like you have eight minutes
to shower and you try to do on the sauna
for fifteen minutes. But no, I'm kidding. Our school did
not have a sauna. Here's the crazy thing about it, though,
is when you would travel at other sports to other schools,
(19:07):
you would go into the girls locker room because the
girls team would like you would switch, you know, the
girls team would be at your school and advice, so
you would have that locker room. And then you realized
they had individual showers.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
It was inding machines, Like what's that about it? But
for us, they're like all for one. It's like a dungeon.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Yeah, it was crazy, like here's a room ten shower
heads all you guys get in, but the the girls'
locker rooms had individual showers, and it blew our minds.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Peebe.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
I'm not saying I grew up in a bad area
because I didn't. Union High School, Prideful Town. We were
USA Today ranked football, the whole deal, right, we were
nationally ranked. It was a great sports school. But we
didn't even have doors on our bathroom stalls. So when
you know, our big lineman had a you know, go
to bath policy. They would have a garbage can and
(19:53):
put it in front of them.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
That was the door.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
So the garbage can, the garbage can in the in
the have them was and you see their heads.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Yeah, that's just how it was. So anyway, I bring
that up because again, school's back gym class.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Kids are running miles and then they go right back
to the classroom, just like that after sweating for the
past hour. There's a progression though that I want to
point out, because we're talking about gym class and then
you go to the gym. Now there is a clear
progression of as you get older, you care way less
about getting naked in front of people at a gym.
(20:29):
If you go to any gym.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Old guys don't care.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Old guys are like blow drying their privates with the
hair dry because no, because they're from that generation that
felt still feel comfortable showering around it work out if
they could be naked around each other, and so they're
the older guys just don't care. Honest say, I wonder
often if it is generational, which I assume it is,
but I also feel sometimes they don't care.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
It's well, it's that too.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
I also like strutting around like they like strutting around
like that in nowadays completely inappropriate for anybody in a
middle school to shower and do that. I don't think,
you know, like especially around a teacher or something like that.
Back then it was whatever, and but now I think
it's I don't say frowned upon because that's making light
(21:17):
of it. But yeah, I don't think you get that
really these days.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah, and you know what to go along with the
as you get older thing, I think it is generational,
But also I was sam. I do think as I
even get older, I've cared less and less, like if
I'm married already procreated, like if I go to the
gym and let's say I do want to change clothes
at the gym because I'm going somewhere afterwards, I'll do
I'll take my box and briefs off and then sort
(21:41):
of quickly put a new pair on.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
That's why I stopped going to the gym with the ridge. No,
but I'm saying he wasn't quick enough.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
But I'm saying, when you were younger, you do like
a towel around you and like soy to slyly pull
your boxing briefs uf. Then you graduate to like if
I'm making for two seconds, it doesn't matter. And then
as you get older, it's like, as Kamino said, you're
doing a catwalk. These old guys all cat walking around
the locker room. I'm like, all right, guy, throw a
towel on that bad boy. Thanks all right? So how
did we get here? The first day at school? First
(22:09):
day of school, at least for this part of southern California.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
At least here.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
And by the way, we grew up on the East coast,
Rich and I we know that school doesn't normally start
until after September, but that's just how it is out
here in La Might kid us up in Cincinnati, He
goes forget the getting dressed in the locker rooms, he goes,
it was all weird back then. You'd bust your ass
playing gym for an hour and then had any pride
(22:35):
you were.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Going all out.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
You'd go all out, and your gym teacher would be
standing by the water fountain'd be like one two three, next,
one two three.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Now like you just ran a mile, you just time
me in a mile. You're done.

Speaker 8 (24:52):
It's me three time Pro Bowl of LeVar Arrington, and
I couldn't be more excited to announce a podcast called

Speaker 1 (24:59):

wherever you get your podcast from.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Oh right, all right, I was explaining to Rich off
the air. My dumb thought it was like a dumb
meme or a dumb article you read. How when you
think about sports merchandise, the baseball hat infiltrated its way
into just regular day gear. People wear baseball hats all
the time. People don't wear football jerseys all the time,
(25:59):
or shoulder pets or basketball jerseys all the time, or yeah,
show their pads, the best of all shoes.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Small sneakers have become part of it. But you're right,
the baseball hat, we don't even think about it. I
know you're saying, we don't think about it in the
sense of, oh, yeah, it's really a baseball hat. Like
if you get a baseball hat that says like I
have a sweet graduate Hotels baseball hat, but it's a
baseball hat.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Hotels has nothing to do with baseball.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
But like I said, you could be golfing with Tiger
Woods and I'm still wearing a baseball hat. And that's
just how it is. And that's what I sort of
referenced before that dumb realization and article or meme we
saw we discussed a while back where Cavino and Rich
and kids are wearing hats and schools, speaking of they
did band phones though I saw that this year.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
You know, that's not a bad idea emergency. I get it,
but still like, you don't need a phone in school.
And speaking of baseball, my Mets got to get hot again.
You know, when your team is well, baseball is so
emotional because it's such a long season.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Your team could be hot. Look at Cavino. He went
through the lows of stink. Give an heard you bitching
and complaining becaus they've been great for the last couple weeks. Yeah,
I mean they're on and off, but they're hitting bombs. Dude.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
It's a Rob Parker was at a hell of a
game yesterday. Stanton Soto hit two bombs. Judged they went back.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
To back Billy to billy. So it's so Rob Parker there.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah, It's just one of those sports where, you know, football,
as we know, we wear our emotions very that Monday
morning after a big winner loss, A lot of people's
Monday mood depends on how their team did on Sunday.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
You carry that with you.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Baseball is just like a six month emotional up and
down roller coaster. I was like, oh, Mets, stink, that's
your great, Met Stink, that's your great. It really is terrible.
Mets start a homestand it's like, you better, come on,
let's do it. Danny G what's on your football what's
on your hat right now? Is that a football team?
Speaker 1 (27:47):

Apparently they were evesdropping on our show last week and
they wrote a story about it.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
So last Friday Show.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
You know, you have program directors who tell you throughout
your career you never know who's listening. And in this case,
one of the industries leading magazines online magazines wrote an
article about what we did on Friday show.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
And it's like another cover shopper or something. Yeah. Right,
so they gave they give you shout outs to did
you see.
Speaker 5 (29:01):
I haven't read the whole article yet, but from what
I saw it was. It was a nice write up,
so except they said your name was Danny Graudio. Yeah,
it is read.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
I'm reading our feedback right now on x and Instagram
and everything. A lot of people really relating to that
stupid showering at the gym in high school.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Like ref Tyler hit us up.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
He goes after Jim, no shower, but after wrestling practice.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yes, of course.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
That's why when my daughter says, we don't have gym
class anymore because cheer counts as jim, I'm like, yo,
you don't know how rough dad.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Had it in gym class. I'd be sweating throughout the
rest of the.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Today I had.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
We had real life bullies too in the locker room.
We didn't have his virtual bully.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
No, no, we had real bullies hitting you with a towel. Yeah,
we were getting rapped.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
And he also said that you could tell if someone
was a freshman because all the freshmen would wear swim
trunks in the shower, and the seniors.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Were confident enough to be like, oh, just go naked.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Charlie hit us up, saying the brown water gross showers
are so crusty and disgusting in so many high schools
that your bound to like get something, all.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Right, Thanks for all the feedback at Coveno and Rich,
at Steve Covino, at Rich Davis, and thanks for all
the belated happy birthdays too.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
I had a nice weekend. I hope you enjoyed yours. Light.
That's how I got mono.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Yeah, exactly. And athletes's foot Oh blind guy creation hit
us up and he goes ya. That smell you're talking
about when kids would put their gym clothes back in
a plastic supermarket bag in their locker and.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Wouldn't bring them home from mom to wash for.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Like weeks at a time, smelling a rancid thig obo
or something RANSI hoo mix with mixed with FreeDOS. Yeah, yo, man,
who got a sub subway sandwich in here? Oh that's
just Mark's shirt anyway, Thank you guys for being here.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
It's Covino and Rich.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
We're gonna play Iron Mike Trivia give away some prizes,
but let's do our Olympic recap. It's not a whole lot.
It's always nice to hear when your thoughts or feelings
are validated too, though not that I need them validated,
but much like most people, I watched Team USA light
it up against France. It was a battle, though it
was a battle, but seeing Lebron and Curry feed off
(31:04):
each other, play off each other is magical. But my
first thought after that win was, Yeah, that was awesome,
and it's clearly a worldwide game right now because it
was way competitive.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
But I don't think they would have won without Curry.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
And then I saw Colin said that on a clip
right just before the show started. I saw a clip
where Coln cow Hurt said the same thing.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
So I like, go, I'm on the right page.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah, so I'm like, oh, you know what, I couldn't
have been the only one I thought that then, because
he was just hitting shot after shot.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
The dude was just throwing up the ball, just throwing
it up. About Lebron setting him up nicely, no doubt.
I'm not trying to take away from Lebron.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I'm just saying I don't think they could they would
have won that game without Curry.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
I'll say this two takeaways from me from Team USA.
I could be alone because I know sometimes people love
to just hate on Lebron relentlessly. Yeah, I'm not doing that.
I think at this Stager's career. It might not seem
feasible with the way contracts are placed right now, but
if we could get Stephan Lebron for a season together,
I just feel like somewhere, somehow, I just feel like
those two need to play together in the NBA. It
(32:05):
seems electric like they had great chemistry. They liked playing together.
There's something about Lebron and Steph together.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
That post is the first question too, though, Rich Olympic
medal or NBA title, I mean, we have a lot
to get to.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
We gotta talk break dancing.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
I think if you're an international player like a Jokic,
if they would have found a way to win. I
mean they won bronze, but I bet you a gold
medal for Jokic means more than a Nuggets NBA title.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
No, Curry's fire was Remember he said that was the
one thing he had to check off his list, and
he made sure that happened.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
He was playing with the fire.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
But the path for the US to win a gold
is easier, I think than an NBA title.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, but he's on a worldwide stage. Guess what.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Winning an NBA titles dope, But doing what he did
for the little kids all over the world.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
To win an NBA title. Well, I guess it would
be an upset if the US didn't win. So I'll
give you some more Amo. You mentioned Jokic. You see
how happy he looked winning a bronze medal with his
countryman Like he's there with his buddies from the Serbian team,
smoking cigars, like really enjoying it.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I'm not sure. I'm not saying he.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Didn't enjoy the parade that he went to reluctantly because
he had a good time, But he looks like he's having.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
His bronze parade, is right there in his own country,
with his own horses and.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
With his own people, with his own people. So it
does pose the question if he's that elated with a
third place medal. And you see how Curry was so pumped.
He's been there, done that, he was so pumped to
win a gold. Does the Olympic medal rival the NBA title?
You gotta think worldwide, we think so? Would it be ethnocentric?
(33:47):
It would be right.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
I do think they'll cove I really do. I think
it's easier to win an NBA title, I'm sorry, Easier
to win an Olympic gold as a member of Team USA.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah, but there's a country prime that that Americans take
for granted, and I think that. Look, if you're from
another land and you want to medal to represent your country,
you don't think that means the world to them. They
don't have an NBA to Carrollton, you know, hold that thought.
We'll take all your feedback, but let's go to Dan
Bayer for an update.

Now we are going to do some Tyson trivia. We
are going to talk some NFL.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
But any other final thoughts on the Olympics.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
As we say, farewell, then they have performances about the
Chili Peppers and Millie Eilish and you know Trey and
Snoop Drain and Snoop and Tom Cruise was gliding down
and high five and all the athletes, which.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I thought was a cook cool scene.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
I think you mentioned her ray Gun, the Australian breakd answer.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
That was zerotrocious. Zero.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
If Hawk to a girl gets her fifteen minutes of fame,
ray Gun deserves thirty minutes of fame.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Ray Gun just knocked her out of the spotlight because
she is everywhere right now.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
She fired back and said they're all original moves. Yeah,
well yeah she could have them.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
You know what, man, it does post a question like
we asked, the question does an Olympic medal rival the
NBA title?
Speaker 2 (39:31):
That's debatable. I even saw Ariel Helwani posted a question.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Similar.
Speaker 2 (39:36):
He says, I think Jokic is happier winning the bronze
with his countryman than he was winning the Larry ob
last year. Do you think it's as good for marketability
reasons or maybe just overall popularity. Think of the world
we live, and we live in a world of likes
and social media. Unfortunately, I'm not saying that's a good thing.
Speaker 5 (39:58):
You see Noah Lyles getting into it with a couple
of pro athletes. He thinks, yeah, yeah, yes, if you're
a world champion basketball or football or baseball, that that's
not really a world championship. And of course some pro
athleteses been firing back at it.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
I know that's ongoing debate. But Ray Gunn, although an
embarrassing fashion, is the most pop one of the most
popular athletes from the Olympics. So would winning a medal
have meant.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
Or have been as good for her you think we
would if she won the bronze, you wouldn't even know
who she was.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
I know there's prestige in winning the gold. I'm not
comparing the two, but let's say she didn't win the bronze.
Speaker 5 (40:41):
She's popular for the wrong reason right now though, but
no one would even know her if she won the bronze.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
That's the truth. First story. I'm just saying.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
And by the way, I heard that this was it
grand opening, grand closing, no more breaking, no more break
dancing in the Olympics in twenty twenty eight in La
and I was getting ready for the washing.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Yeah, I was getting ready for headbang and it wasn't
coming back, and break dancing seemed to go. That's what
I thought.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
I thought as far as presentation, he did a great
job the stage and the platform, and I thought it
looked cool.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
But that's what we're hearing. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (41:17):
Yeah, and obviously some of the countries were not up
to snuff, but I thought it could evolve over time, So.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Maybe no mashing in twenty twenty eight. We'll we'll find out.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
But overall, I mean that last that last game USA
versus France really sealed the deal for me.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
I thought that was a great game.
Speaker 5 (41:35):
Props to them, and arguably the best three pointer of
Curry's career.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Yeah, yeah, I think going over wimbin Yama to that.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
Danny g It's on the world stage, it's the Olympics.
I get it, But I still think it's way trickier
to win an NBA title. So I wonder what they
feel inside, like the when you're when you're the ridiculous
odds on favorite to win Like if team you say
a different sets of pride, but it's all right, country
pride versus team pride.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
That's, you know, just something to think.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
Well, I'm not saying pride wise at the USA, I'm
saying what's easier?
Speaker 2 (42:13):
Gold medal easy? Now, Now it's getting a little tougher.
This you agree with, But yeah, I give.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
You to be like, yeah Lebron, Stephan Durant, Yeah, they're
gonna if they don't win gold, they're a joke. They
have to win gold every NBA season. There's a lot
of superstars that aren't gonna sniff the NBA finals. So
I think that's tougher to win.
Speaker 1 (42:30):
It's tougher.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
And I think raygun stole the stole the steam of
the pole vaulter with the junk.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
Yeah, I saw a funny. I saw a funny.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Comedian wrote uh Brett Druck. He wrote, it's gotta suck

Kevin em every tell you about that JABRONI that was
calling me Kevin for a long time. True story, And
then one day I had the courage to finally say, dude,
why do you call me Kevin? And He's like, well,
you know keV short for Kevin. Oh, Kevin's your name, right,
I'm like, you think that my name is Kevin?
Speaker 1 (02:18):
He thought everyone's calling you Kevin.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
Oh he thought my name was Kevin. Oh, I'm like,
my name's Covino, Steve. He's like, I thought that was
like a nickname for Kevin.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
I'm like, no, my name is Steve Covino. You can
stop calling me Kevin. Now what a great I thought
you were Kevin? Oh what Kevin? Always into disrespectively call
you Kevin from now on?
Speaker 1 (02:39):
This farst go for.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
It went on for me. It was a friend of
a friend who kept calling me keV. So eventually I'm like,
why do you call me keV? This is a Seinfeld
moment there the Susie is. I mean, it's Ted alexandro
bit too. Don't think I'm stealing it, because I'm not.
It really did happen to me, And that was the
last time I talked.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
To that guy. I was like, we're not friends anymore,
but any you deserve it.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I'll tell you why. I know all your dumb stories.
You were in college and you called this dude. Kavina's
the king of giving people people nicknames, any things they like.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
Those those are terms of endearment. That means that you're
cool and you're one of us, like Kevino will be like,
there was a kid in high school had a big head.
We called them bunk was. We made him famous. I'm
famous for that.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
I said, do you think that kid is like, thank
you Kavino for calling me bank Because we grew up
in a place where people didn't cry about these things.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
That was how we embraced them. That's how it was
in Union, New Jersey in the late nineteen hundreds. We
weren't a bunch of weenies like everybody today.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That's a fair point.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Yeah, And I know if all your nicknames were great.
So in college, I didn't know Kvino, but I know
the story. You know the intercoms Sam at the dorm rooms,
you'd buzz your friend in like, yo, it's me, I was, Sam,
let me up, and you'd buzz your friend in up
to your dorm room. Sure if the story, if I'm
telling the story correct, I know a story. There was
a guy that got on the inn at Covino's dorm.
(04:02):
I saw this guy and I kind of knew him,
and he was buzzing up to one of our mutual friends,
and I hear my mutual friends say, hello, who's this.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
He goes, it's Major Buddy. I'm like, major buddy, what
is this? This is their little nickname, Major Buddy. So
I saw that dude for the next four years and
I called him Major Buddy, and everybody called him major buddy.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
There he is, Major Buddy. That's a good one though, right, no, no, no,
but listen it is.
Speaker 3 (04:30):
So one day he finally gets the curage senior year, right, yeah,
last year of college. He's like, yo, ma, I don't
know why, but I need to know why do you
call me major buddy? Because it's stuck with him, and
everyone thought he was like some sort of you know,
colonel major buddy. Uh, some sort of military guy.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
And I said, because the first time I saw you
visiting the campus, you were hitting up our friends and
you were on the intercom saying, hey, it's major buddy.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
So I thought that was stupid. And I don't know
I called you that four year nickname.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
Four years later, he goes major Buddy. He's like, I
was probably saying it's me your buddy, dumb and oh
all right, until this day, everybody calls a major buddy
and that sums up Covino, and again.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
We carry on.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I hope you had a great weekend, guys. Dumb stories, nonsense, sports,
Iron Mike Trivia, we bring it all to you here
on the show. We're giving away prizes, so Iron Mike
stops by, but we're gonna do something called our Random
Olympic Recap, Our Random Olympic Recap. But today, before we
get to that, today was the first day of school
(05:38):
out here on the West Side.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
So it's back to school. Back to school. Oh, back
to school today, Move to dad. I'm not a.
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Food back to school, thank you, Sam Carpet creatures, that's right.
And I got my lunch packed up, my shoes tied tight.
Oh fight, and you know with doing it Thornton Mellon
style Today Triple Lindy's back to school.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
I was Sam had miss slippy right, here's your teacher.
Speaker 3 (06:09):
Yeah, yes, yes, yes, still hot sough. We want to
introduce something to you called the three photo rule because
today today, you know what the start of Today's the
start of not only all right, the Olympics are over,
so now what are we watching? Today's the start of
(06:30):
these nose picking, kids holding up that little board saying
first day of whatever, and when you're out in about
with your buds. They love to bust these photos out
as if you didn't see them already on Facebook or
social media, like, hey, I already saw your pumpkin pie
haircut of kid he started second grade.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Good for him. Anything else, I will say, though I saw.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
A sweet new backpack. I agree with Mike who runs
this place. Who Mike, who runs this place, who said,
as you get older and you're a parent, you got kids,
you don't hate it as much, not as much. And
you know, I rather dying as you've already seen him though.
Speaker 3 (07:05):
Yeah, but I rather that than people fighting about politics
on social media. So I'll take your kid with a
stupid sign on your front stoop more than your take
on a Kamala Harris or Donald.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
Saw your kid in his little bow tying bowl haircut
getting ready for school. I saw it, But they want
to show you anyway, and that's fine. Look, I have
a daughter who started high school today. That was a
whole experience in itself. Frantic new routine barely made it
on time. That traffic's back. But again, we want to
introduce to you the three photo rule. Yeah, this is
(07:39):
a rule I got to give our buddy Row in
Atlanta credit. He's a big Falcons fan, big Georgia Bulldogs fan.
You call him the Peruvian prints. Our Peruvian friend Row.
Row and I met up with the ones. We went
to go see a football game. We had not seen
each other in about a year. We're getting into the stadium,
(08:00):
we talk about family friends, how you been, haven't seen you?
And as we are about to do the typical y'all,
let me show you a picture, he goes, hold, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (08:08):
Stop you right there. I have a rule.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
I was like, first of all, I seen most of
your vacation photos and your nose picking kids photos on
social media.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
But here's the rule.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
And I love this rule because it makes it forces
you to be selective. If you see an old pal,
an old college frat brother, anyone that you're catching up
with you haven't seen in a while, who made you buddy?
Speaker 1 (08:33):
It's me your buddy, you know, it's major buddy, my
old college pay colean out. It's me bank from high school.
Thanks major buddy.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
The rule is you're allowed to show that person three
one two three three photos in your phone. That's it,
As Mariano Duncan one said, right, we play today, we
win today. Yeah, Marianna Duncan, three photos. I was sam
(09:03):
if I haven't seen you in six months?
Speaker 1 (09:04):
Yo, how you been bro? I get show?
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Oh my kids on the first day, me and my
wife in Hawaii. Oh, we had a great time. Oh,
now I gotta be selective. Third photo.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
We should have three photos on standby. Here's my dog wuffles. Oh,
there's my kids on their first day of school.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
Dude sweets. Here's my vacation or he oh sweet box
seats at the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
There there you go. Three photos.
Speaker 2 (09:26):
That's it, you know, I because it keeps people in
a good mood and you're not dragging it out, and
then you're not looking for like hold on, hold on,
I want you because everyone's always looking for that right one,
you know what I mean? And here's wasting time and
now you're tuned out and no one cares that much.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
It's the three photo rule. Do you agree or disagree?
I apply it to your life.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Can I be like Portnoy and cheat? What if one
of my three is a picture collage?
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Yeah? Okay? With that? I like okay, it works.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, so you get a multiple pictures of your kids
on their first day of school. Here's my daughter, here's
my son, and here's my dog on the first day
of school. Danny, if I haven't seen you in a while,
here's what I'm breaking out.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
If i'm you, I'm Danny j Yeah. Here's a great
picture of Coe his first birthday part first with the
shark cake and everything. Can't believe that being a guy.
Next photo, I'm Daddy Caviino and Rich and I We've
been traveling a lot. He's a cool live broadcast where
I was MC or doing great at work Graduate Hotel.
Now the third one's up to you, but it's no
(10:27):
one wants see twenty photos.
Speaker 2 (10:28):
I love the three and let's just I don't know.
Rich loves smutty talk, so unlet's just something smutty. Rich
is tuned down, you know. Otherwise three is enough. Three
is enough. That's the three photo.
Speaker 3 (10:42):
And if you're single, yeah, don't talk about a hawk
earl you're hooking up with without a picture, useless, without past.
Speaker 2 (10:48):
Honestly, it's like, yeah, dude, I met some hot show me.
No one wants to hear about her. Fantastic heine if
you don't have evidence.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Kay, honestly, So there you go. And that's all based
on the first day of school. And I do want
to bring up that's two things. No, no, no, two things.
One of them's kind of sports related but not really.
What's the number one league leading hat in all of sports?
Speaker 1 (11:12):
Is there an answer?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
Yeah, a baseball hat, a baseball cap. There's no other
answer to that. All right, are you asking what team
what they know? But do you know when we were kids,
we weren't allowed to wear hats to school. Now, these
little nose pickers are allowed to wear hats to school
here in La.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
In La is different, I understand. I'm just telling you
what I see.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I'm like, wait, so they could wear pajama pants, crocs,
and hats.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Now, we were allowed to wear hats out here on
the West Coast. Yes, what I'm saying we weren't allowed
to go. Yeah. I don't remember if we were allowed
to wear hats or not.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
I mean, no one gives a crap about my personal story,
but I'm gonna tell you anyway. I remember we were
in a school play and it was after school, right,
and my buddy Jeff was all about wearing his New
York Nick's hat during the playoffs, and the teachers like, Jeff,
take your hat off, and he's like, oh, miss Johnson,
I'm pretty sure this in after school curricular activity.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
She's like, no, hats, my buddy, Jeff goes. I quit.
He quit the school play because the teachers that take
off your hat.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
Growing up from it was like going into a fine
dining Italian restaurant, you gotta take that hat off.
Speaker 5 (12:21):
And then there was the old school teachers would ask
you nicely to take it off in class, but you
still could wear it to school.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Now I'm seeing all these little Doyer fans with their
hats and their crocs out here in La so a
lot of hats when I dropped my daughter off to
high school today, and I just wanted to bring up
one of the coolest feelings ever. I'm going for baseball
hats to basketball sneakers. Was it not the coolest feeling ever?
You got to bust out your brand new kicks for
(12:48):
the start of the school year. I thought that was
the greatest thing. I think every kid has to have
the great feeling of wearing some brand new kicks. Now,
not every kid does it. Just it every year, but
that is just up there with the top five of
all time.
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Butget aside because I don't want to insult anyone. Yeah,
if you're scraping by and you're just doing what you
need to do, I get it. You could get your
butt pay least shoes. Let me tell them you live.
You look at a kid on day one of school
in a nice area where you know, like the parents
have money, and he has dirty sneakers on day one
of school.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
You're being a.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
Bad kids kind of like that dirty white Air Force one,
like crusty looking.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Look you know where their sweet lumpy Air Force ones.
That's kind of the style. Look, oh, my shoes are
like that.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
They like their oat meal and their Air Force ones
lumpy like beige shoes.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
I would say it's unintentionally in style.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
But always I'm telling you, I took a lot of
pride in buying my daughter some sweet new Air Force
ones yesterday and some Jordan's.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
She got two pair because their grades are good. So
just throwing that out there, first day of school, first.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
Day of school.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
What I noticed baseball hats, basketball kicks, and I digest
the three photo rule. Got a little something, you know,
there's we're.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Gonna get into, Like you said, some Australian breakdancing is
who doesn't want to NFL A lot to get to today?
But you brought up sneakers and I'm not sure why
this bothers me so much. I feel like Sebastian Mena
Scalco's bothers me?
Speaker 1 (14:25):
Who bothers you?
Speaker 3 (14:27):
My wife's from Texas and she calls all of my
kids sneakers tennis shoes, and I'm like, our kids aren't
andre Agasy? Look, but you know that, does Ben have
the sweet new Pete Sampras Swiss?
Speaker 1 (14:39):
Look at my kid? My honey?
Speaker 3 (14:41):
Does does Ben look like Raffae on the doll tennis shoes?
We're watching tennis in the background here.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Your daughter got those sweet yvon Lindel's. I was like, uh,
does our donna look like Steviy Graff? What's going on here? Yeah?
I don't like that either? Oh she got the cocoat goffs.
Why does everyone call them tennis shoes? Regional thing?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
It's ridiculous. I like pop and soda. It's it's a
pop code. I get It's just a regional thing. I
get it, But you learned it in Spanish too. Zas
day tennis.
Speaker 5 (15:11):
Yes, yes, there you go. But because it's regional doesn't
make it right. There's people in parts of the country
that say rec's pieces.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
No, no, it's not. It's regional.
Speaker 3 (15:21):
So yeah, choose pick one kicks sneakers, tennis shoes.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Nah, that' stop flying.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
I don't gym shoes is sort of the generic gym shoes.
That's weak. No, And by the way, I didn't know
this here.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
In La Where are you from Iowa?
Speaker 2 (15:36):
My daughter she's on the cheerleading team, which means she
doesn't have to take gym.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
They do cheering like in place of gym.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I'm like, what since when let me bring you back to.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Me in middle school or high school year was nineteen
ninety something. Let's just say that ninety something, right, we
would go all out gym, basketball, all county gym class,
by the way, all state gym class.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
I went all out. We'd have sweaty ass and go
right to history class right afterward.
Speaker 3 (16:07):
It was pretty gross. We didn't shower in my high
school either, chower air conditioner. In our cinder block prison
of a school, we didn't have air, so we would
have sweaty ass from a mean volleyball game in gym
class and then be sitting in algebra right after. If
you want to talk about gym class, pe class, I'm
just saying school started today, rich, But I'm saying that
(16:28):
when we were.
Speaker 1 (16:29):
Kidding, my daughter said, I don't have fyzette. I'm like,
what do you mean?
Speaker 3 (16:31):
You don't have fizet? She's like cheers in place of fyzit.
I was like, what they u When you think back,
we had I'm sure you did. The two We had
showers in our locker room, but no one ever used them.
They were unused. Everyone just and you needed one after
that stale gass penny they put. Everyone just put their
(16:52):
regular clothes back on, and you know, and you know
what was even grosser. I don't know how your high
school rolled. You're trying to kick it to some high
chick in your class. Meanwhile you're sweating from dodgeball and
the jim shorts and the T shirt you wore to
gym class. You would put in a plastic bag right
back in your locker and you would wear that danky
ass jym set again. And do you remember that smelling
(17:14):
everyone all of this smelling a penny smelling a penny
from nineteen sixty five.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
It was just gross.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
They never watched those pennies. Did you guys call them
pennies growing up?
Speaker 5 (17:26):
No, It's funny when you see like eighties movies like Footloose,
all it's like thirty year old actors and they're all
showering after Pean.
Speaker 1 (17:34):
We watched that.
Speaker 3 (17:35):
Were like I graduated high school and we did that
in like a field camp for football and like double
session football camp things like that.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
But regular gym days, high school days.
Speaker 3 (17:45):
No way were we taking showers anyone here take that
because I'm I graduated high school in the late nineties.
I went to college in the early two thousands. Never
one time in high school or college did I shower
with other students.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
Did you know you had any pride? You were going
all out?
Speaker 3 (18:01):
No?
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Did you ever shower the men?
Speaker 4 (18:03):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (18:03):
Were you ever in like a locker row showering as
like a seventeen year old?
Speaker 1 (18:07):
They were there. But did you anyone used them in football?
We did? Yeah, some guys keep their under after after
keep on for sure. That's a tradition.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
Like back in like you're serving like World War two,
men were just men and they showered together.
Speaker 3 (18:21):
They're like progression though, and that was like the generations
after that just not a thing you're comfortable. Damn buyer.
I was gonna say, I picture it was a naked shower.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
No did you? Did you shower in high school?
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Not during class, but after a practice? You would you
that's what you're talking about, Like keep.
Speaker 1 (18:42):
No, yeah I would.
Speaker 6 (18:44):
I used to, yeah for sure, but we're talking in
high school. When you're in seventh grade. Never you know,
stuff like that never happened, Like you have eight minutes
to shower and you try to do on the sauna
for fifteen minutes. But no, I'm kidding. Our school did
not have a sauna. Here's the crazy thing about it, though,
is when you would travel at other sports to other schools,
(19:07):
you would go into the girls locker room because the
girls team would like you would switch, you know, the
girls team would be at your school and advice, so
you would have that locker room. And then you realized
they had individual showers.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
It was inding machines, Like what's that about it? But
for us, they're like all for one. It's like a dungeon.
Speaker 6 (19:23):
Yeah, it was crazy, like here's a room ten shower
heads all you guys get in, but the the girls'
locker rooms had individual showers, and it blew our minds.
Speaker 1 (19:33):
Peebe.
Speaker 2 (19:33):
I'm not saying I grew up in a bad area
because I didn't. Union High School, Prideful Town. We were
USA Today ranked football, the whole deal, right, we were
nationally ranked. It was a great sports school. But we
didn't even have doors on our bathroom stalls. So when
you know, our big lineman had a you know, go
to bath policy. They would have a garbage can and
(19:53):
put it in front of them.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
That was the door.
Speaker 3 (19:55):
So the garbage can, the garbage can in the in
the have them was and you see their heads.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
Yeah, that's just how it was. So anyway, I bring
that up because again, school's back gym class.
Speaker 3 (20:08):
Kids are running miles and then they go right back
to the classroom, just like that after sweating for the
past hour. There's a progression though that I want to
point out, because we're talking about gym class and then
you go to the gym. Now there is a clear
progression of as you get older, you care way less
about getting naked in front of people at a gym.
(20:29):
If you go to any gym.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Old guys don't care.
Speaker 3 (20:31):
Old guys are like blow drying their privates with the
hair dry because no, because they're from that generation that
felt still feel comfortable showering around it work out if
they could be naked around each other, and so they're
the older guys just don't care. Honest say, I wonder
often if it is generational, which I assume it is,
but I also feel sometimes they don't care.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
It's well, it's that too.
Speaker 6 (20:55):
I also like strutting around like they like strutting around
like that in nowadays completely inappropriate for anybody in a
middle school to shower and do that. I don't think,
you know, like especially around a teacher or something like that.
Back then it was whatever, and but now I think
it's I don't say frowned upon because that's making light
(21:17):
of it. But yeah, I don't think you get that
really these days.
Speaker 3 (21:19):
Yeah, and you know what to go along with the
as you get older thing, I think it is generational,
But also I was sam. I do think as I
even get older, I've cared less and less, like if
I'm married already procreated, like if I go to the
gym and let's say I do want to change clothes
at the gym because I'm going somewhere afterwards, I'll do
I'll take my box and briefs off and then sort
(21:41):
of quickly put a new pair on.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
That's why I stopped going to the gym with the ridge. No,
but I'm saying he wasn't quick enough.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
But I'm saying, when you were younger, you do like
a towel around you and like soy to slyly pull
your boxing briefs uf. Then you graduate to like if
I'm making for two seconds, it doesn't matter. And then
as you get older, it's like, as Kamino said, you're
doing a catwalk. These old guys all cat walking around
the locker room. I'm like, all right, guy, throw a
towel on that bad boy. Thanks all right? So how
did we get here? The first day at school? First
(22:09):
day of school, at least for this part of southern California.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
At least here.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:14):
And by the way, we grew up on the East coast,
Rich and I we know that school doesn't normally start
until after September, but that's just how it is out
here in La Might kid us up in Cincinnati, He
goes forget the getting dressed in the locker rooms, he goes,
it was all weird back then. You'd bust your ass
playing gym for an hour and then had any pride
(22:35):
you were.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Going all out.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
You'd go all out, and your gym teacher would be
standing by the water fountain'd be like one two three, next,
one two three.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Now like you just ran a mile, you just time
me in a mile. You're done.

I couldn't be more excited to announce a podcast called

Speaker 1 (24:59):

wherever you get your podcast from.
Speaker 2 (25:37):
Oh right, all right, I was explaining to Rich off
the air. My dumb thought it was like a dumb
meme or a dumb article you read. How when you
think about sports merchandise, the baseball hat infiltrated its way
into just regular day gear. People wear baseball hats all
the time. People don't wear football jerseys all the time,
(25:59):
or shoulder pets or basketball jerseys all the time, or yeah,
show their pads, the best of all shoes.
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Small sneakers have become part of it. But you're right,
the baseball hat, we don't even think about it. I
know you're saying, we don't think about it in the
sense of, oh, yeah, it's really a baseball hat. Like
if you get a baseball hat that says like I
have a sweet graduate Hotels baseball hat, but it's a
baseball hat.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Hotels has nothing to do with baseball.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
But like I said, you could be golfing with Tiger
Woods and I'm still wearing a baseball hat. And that's
just how it is. And that's what I sort of
referenced before that dumb realization and article or meme we
saw we discussed a while back where Cavino and Rich
and kids are wearing hats and schools, speaking of they
did band phones though I saw that this year.
Speaker 3 (26:43):
You know, that's not a bad idea emergency. I get it,
but still like, you don't need a phone in school.
And speaking of baseball, my Mets got to get hot again.
You know, when your team is well, baseball is so
emotional because it's such a long season.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Your team could be hot. Look at Cavino. He went
through the lows of stink. Give an heard you bitching
and complaining becaus they've been great for the last couple weeks. Yeah,
I mean they're on and off, but they're hitting bombs. Dude.
Speaker 2 (27:07):
It's a Rob Parker was at a hell of a
game yesterday. Stanton Soto hit two bombs. Judged they went back.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
To back Billy to billy. So it's so Rob Parker there.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Yeah, It's just one of those sports where, you know, football,
as we know, we wear our emotions very that Monday
morning after a big winner loss, A lot of people's
Monday mood depends on how their team did on Sunday.
Speaker 1 (27:28):
You carry that with you.
Speaker 3 (27:30):
Baseball is just like a six month emotional up and
down roller coaster. I was like, oh, Mets, stink, that's
your great, Met Stink, that's your great. It really is terrible.
Mets start a homestand it's like, you better, come on,
let's do it. Danny G what's on your football what's
on your hat right now? Is that a football team?
Speaker 1 (27:47):

Apparently they were evesdropping on our show last week and
they wrote a story about it.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
So last Friday Show.
Speaker 5 (28:40):
You know, you have program directors who tell you throughout
your career you never know who's listening. And in this case,
one of the industries leading magazines online magazines wrote an
article about what we did on Friday show.
Speaker 1 (28:54):
And it's like another cover shopper or something. Yeah. Right,
so they gave they give you shout outs to did
you see.
Speaker 5 (29:01):
I haven't read the whole article yet, but from what
I saw it was. It was a nice write up,
so except they said your name was Danny Graudio. Yeah,
it is read.
Speaker 3 (29:11):
I'm reading our feedback right now on x and Instagram
and everything. A lot of people really relating to that
stupid showering at the gym in high school.
Speaker 1 (29:18):
Like ref Tyler hit us up.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
He goes after Jim, no shower, but after wrestling practice.
Speaker 1 (29:24):
Yes, of course.
Speaker 3 (29:25):
That's why when my daughter says, we don't have gym
class anymore because cheer counts as jim, I'm like, yo,
you don't know how rough dad.
Speaker 2 (29:32):
Had it in gym class. I'd be sweating throughout the
rest of the.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Today I had.
Speaker 5 (29:37):
We had real life bullies too in the locker room.
We didn't have his virtual bully.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
No, no, we had real bullies hitting you with a towel. Yeah,
we were getting rapped.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
And he also said that you could tell if someone
was a freshman because all the freshmen would wear swim
trunks in the shower, and the seniors.
Speaker 1 (29:51):
Were confident enough to be like, oh, just go naked.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Charlie hit us up, saying the brown water gross showers
are so crusty and disgusting in so many high schools
that your bound to like get something, all.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
Right, Thanks for all the feedback at Coveno and Rich,
at Steve Covino, at Rich Davis, and thanks for all
the belated happy birthdays too.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
I had a nice weekend. I hope you enjoyed yours. Light.
That's how I got mono.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
Yeah, exactly. And athletes's foot Oh blind guy creation hit
us up and he goes ya. That smell you're talking
about when kids would put their gym clothes back in
a plastic supermarket bag in their locker and.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Wouldn't bring them home from mom to wash for.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Like weeks at a time, smelling a rancid thig obo
or something RANSI hoo mix with mixed with FreeDOS. Yeah, yo, man,
who got a sub subway sandwich in here? Oh that's
just Mark's shirt anyway, Thank you guys for being here.
Speaker 1 (30:40):
It's Covino and Rich.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
We're gonna play Iron Mike Trivia give away some prizes,
but let's do our Olympic recap. It's not a whole lot.
It's always nice to hear when your thoughts or feelings
are validated too, though not that I need them validated,
but much like most people, I watched Team USA light
it up against France. It was a battle, though it
was a battle, but seeing Lebron and Curry feed off
(31:04):
each other, play off each other is magical. But my
first thought after that win was, Yeah, that was awesome,
and it's clearly a worldwide game right now because it
was way competitive.
Speaker 1 (31:15):
But I don't think they would have won without Curry.
Speaker 2 (31:18):
And then I saw Colin said that on a clip
right just before the show started. I saw a clip
where Coln cow Hurt said the same thing.
Speaker 1 (31:24):
So I like, go, I'm on the right page.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah, so I'm like, oh, you know what, I couldn't
have been the only one I thought that then, because
he was just hitting shot after shot.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
The dude was just throwing up the ball, just throwing
it up. About Lebron setting him up nicely, no doubt.
I'm not trying to take away from Lebron.
Speaker 2 (31:39):
I'm just saying I don't think they could they would
have won that game without Curry.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
I'll say this two takeaways from me from Team USA.
I could be alone because I know sometimes people love
to just hate on Lebron relentlessly. Yeah, I'm not doing that.
I think at this Stager's career. It might not seem
feasible with the way contracts are placed right now, but
if we could get Stephan Lebron for a season together,
I just feel like somewhere, somehow, I just feel like
those two need to play together in the NBA. It
(32:05):
seems electric like they had great chemistry. They liked playing together.
There's something about Lebron and Steph together.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
That post is the first question too, though, Rich Olympic
medal or NBA title, I mean, we have a lot
to get to.
Speaker 1 (32:18):
We gotta talk break dancing.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
I think if you're an international player like a Jokic,
if they would have found a way to win. I
mean they won bronze, but I bet you a gold
medal for Jokic means more than a Nuggets NBA title.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
No, Curry's fire was Remember he said that was the
one thing he had to check off his list, and
he made sure that happened.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
He was playing with the fire.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
But the path for the US to win a gold
is easier, I think than an NBA title.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, but he's on a worldwide stage. Guess what.
Speaker 2 (32:43):
Winning an NBA titles dope, But doing what he did
for the little kids all over the world.
Speaker 3 (32:50):
To win an NBA title. Well, I guess it would
be an upset if the US didn't win. So I'll
give you some more Amo. You mentioned Jokic. You see
how happy he looked winning a bronze medal with his
countryman Like he's there with his buddies from the Serbian team,
smoking cigars, like really enjoying it.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
I'm not sure. I'm not saying he.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Didn't enjoy the parade that he went to reluctantly because
he had a good time, But he looks like he's having.
Speaker 5 (33:19):
His bronze parade, is right there in his own country,
with his own horses and.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
With his own people, with his own people. So it
does pose the question if he's that elated with a
third place medal. And you see how Curry was so pumped.
He's been there, done that, he was so pumped to
win a gold. Does the Olympic medal rival the NBA title?
You gotta think worldwide, we think so? Would it be ethnocentric?
(33:47):
It would be right.
Speaker 3 (33:48):
I do think they'll cove I really do. I think
it's easier to win an NBA title, I'm sorry, Easier
to win an Olympic gold as a member of Team USA.
Speaker 2 (33:58):
Yeah, but there's a country prime that that Americans take
for granted, and I think that. Look, if you're from
another land and you want to medal to represent your country,
you don't think that means the world to them. They
don't have an NBA to Carrollton, you know, hold that thought.
We'll take all your feedback, but let's go to Dan
Bayer for an update.
Speaker 1 (34:18):

Now we are going to do some Tyson trivia. We
are going to talk some NFL.
Speaker 1 (38:44):
But any other final thoughts on the Olympics.
Speaker 3 (38:46):
As we say, farewell, then they have performances about the
Chili Peppers and Millie Eilish and you know Trey and
Snoop Drain and Snoop and Tom Cruise was gliding down
and high five and all the athletes, which.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
I thought was a cook cool scene.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
I think you mentioned her ray Gun, the Australian breakd answer.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
That was zerotrocious. Zero.
Speaker 3 (39:09):
If Hawk to a girl gets her fifteen minutes of fame,
ray Gun deserves thirty minutes of fame.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Ray Gun just knocked her out of the spotlight because
she is everywhere right now.
Speaker 1 (39:19):
She fired back and said they're all original moves. Yeah,
well yeah she could have them.
Speaker 3 (39:24):
You know what, man, it does post a question like
we asked, the question does an Olympic medal rival the
NBA title?
Speaker 2 (39:31):
That's debatable. I even saw Ariel Helwani posted a question.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Similar.
Speaker 2 (39:36):
He says, I think Jokic is happier winning the bronze
with his countryman than he was winning the Larry ob
last year. Do you think it's as good for marketability
reasons or maybe just overall popularity. Think of the world
we live, and we live in a world of likes
and social media. Unfortunately, I'm not saying that's a good thing.
Speaker 5 (39:58):
You see Noah Lyles getting into it with a couple
of pro athletes. He thinks, yeah, yeah, yes, if you're
a world champion basketball or football or baseball, that that's
not really a world championship. And of course some pro
athleteses been firing back at it.
Speaker 2 (40:13):
I know that's ongoing debate. But Ray Gunn, although an
embarrassing fashion, is the most pop one of the most
popular athletes from the Olympics. So would winning a medal
have meant.
Speaker 3 (40:28):
Or have been as good for her you think we
would if she won the bronze, you wouldn't even know
who she was.
Speaker 2 (40:35):
I know there's prestige in winning the gold. I'm not
comparing the two, but let's say she didn't win the bronze.
Speaker 5 (40:41):
She's popular for the wrong reason right now though, but
no one would even know her if she won the bronze.
Speaker 1 (40:46):
That's the truth. First story. I'm just saying.
Speaker 3 (40:49):
And by the way, I heard that this was it
grand opening, grand closing, no more breaking, no more break
dancing in the Olympics in twenty twenty eight in La
and I was getting ready for the washing.
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Yeah, I was getting ready for headbang and it wasn't
coming back, and break dancing seemed to go. That's what
I thought.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
I thought as far as presentation, he did a great
job the stage and the platform, and I thought it
looked cool.
Speaker 1 (41:15):
But that's what we're hearing. I don't know.
Speaker 5 (41:17):
Yeah, and obviously some of the countries were not up
to snuff, but I thought it could evolve over time, So.
Speaker 1 (41:24):
Maybe no mashing in twenty twenty eight. We'll we'll find out.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
But overall, I mean that last that last game USA
versus France really sealed the deal for me.
Speaker 1 (41:34):
I thought that was a great game.
Speaker 5 (41:35):
Props to them, and arguably the best three pointer of
Curry's career.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Yeah, yeah, I think going over wimbin Yama to that.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
Danny g It's on the world stage, it's the Olympics.
I get it, But I still think it's way trickier
to win an NBA title. So I wonder what they
feel inside, like the when you're when you're the ridiculous
odds on favorite to win Like if team you say
a different sets of pride, but it's all right, country
pride versus team pride.
Speaker 1 (42:05):
That's, you know, just something to think.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
Well, I'm not saying pride wise at the USA, I'm
saying what's easier?
Speaker 2 (42:13):
Gold medal easy? Now, Now it's getting a little tougher.
This you agree with, But yeah, I give.
Speaker 3 (42:18):
You to be like, yeah Lebron, Stephan Durant, Yeah, they're
gonna if they don't win gold, they're a joke. They
have to win gold every NBA season. There's a lot
of superstars that aren't gonna sniff the NBA finals. So
I think that's tougher to win.
Speaker 1 (42:30):
It's tougher.
Speaker 3 (42:31):
And I think raygun stole the stole the steam of
the pole vaulter with the junk.
Speaker 1 (42:37):
Yeah, I saw a funny. I saw a funny.
Speaker 3 (42:39):
Comedian wrote uh Brett Druck. He wrote, it's gotta suck
to be a pole vaulter that wins gold. Everyone's like
nice metal, small junk. So hey, we got more Covine
