We got Rich's solar power parlay this hour stick around
for that, but every Thursday we throw it back old
school in fifty hits reminisce.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
And it was based on a meme. Just a meme,
simple meme, a simple meme. It was like, hey, what
did you miss out on in your childhood? When you
look back, what do you feel you missed out on?
And again, coming from Jersey, it's almost a badge of
honor if you're from Jersey and you talk about your
times at Action Park because it was covered and documentaries

(01:31):
and people like, yo, man, you're from Ery.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Did you ever go?

Speaker 2 (01:33):
I saw this documentary about Action Park and all these
people died there hound see if it was And I
remember seeing the commercials all the time going up on
the East Coast, and my mom wouldn't let me go,
simple as that.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
You're not going there, Steven. It wasn't even like a discussion.
I wasn't allowed. It was unsafe. I think my mom
loved me too much to allow me to go, simple
as that. But I always felt like I missed out.
And even now as an adult, people ask me and
I feel like embarrassed to say yeah and go never went,
really yeah, never went.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
I'd been to Action Park multiple times did you. Yeah,
and even richest from Long Island is very unsafe.

Speaker 1 (02:08):
It was unsafe.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
It was known for being like extremely dangerous and people
dying there the documentaries, Like you said, what did you
feel like you missed out on? It doesn't need to
be sports, it could be anything. I wrote that a
few things you brought up last hour. My parents are
in the mindset of like, oh, we're not gonna let
them play football. It's dangerous. So I watched no one

(02:29):
really good quarterback come out of my town. I'm not
saying I would have been the quarterback, but I pitched
at a good arm. I'm six foot, like to me,
it was there for the taking. You could have been
that guy. I could have been that guy. So football's
on my list. I missed out on that.

Speaker 5 (02:44):
Tom Brady over instead of just looking like an NFL punter,
you could have actually been a quarter exactly.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
Instead of being treated like Bobby Brady, you could have
been Tom Brady. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
See, yeah, I wrote that A couple of things that
I feel like I missed out on because my parents
were peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. You know, I peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches. They never gave me peanut butter
and jelly.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
By the way, you can't just brush over that one.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Started working with Rich in our late twenties, right, this
dude had never had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
So one of our first radio bits was you never
had what, you gotta have it, So we had him
eat one on the air because he was deprived of
peanut butter his entire life.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
True story.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
My first my first day working with you, guys, I
was poor and I brought in a peanut butter and
jelly sandwich.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
I made fun of spun. He made fun of me,
and then he was like, wait a second, I don't
think ive ever had a peanut butter jelly sanwich.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
We were like, what next day, I brought a peanut
butter and jelly, so we made him eat one. Man,
his life is never been the same. But you missed
that on that how you were kid?

Speaker 2 (03:43):
I had a dad who and now he has every
streaming service possible. But my dad was one of those
eighties dads that said we didn't.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Need cable TV. I feel like you missed out a song.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
So when Covino and Spot and Danny and guys make
references to MTV and that video.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
In this video on Mark Goodman and all the old
VJs and all that.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I I'm like, yeah, I, guys, I'm gonna have to
take your word for I missed out on early MTV.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Think about how influential MTV was or cable TV. Not
just MTV, but cable TV was in your life growing up,
but it was like playing outside video games and cable TV,
but there was had no cable TV. There'll be movies
that were in heavy rotation on like HBO and Spot
and Cavino, and the guys will be like, oh, that
that movie was on all the time, and I'm like, yeah,

(04:30):
for you, I I watched like crappy networks. And to
be honest, it sounds, you know, not that significant. But
there is a bit of a look at disconnects sometimes
because rich didn't have cable That's wild when you think
about it.

Speaker 2 (04:46):
What else do you feel like you missed out on
from your childhood. I'll give you one more and then
we'll go around the room. I want to get this
out here because we're talking about baseball and football. I
never went to like a cool baseball or football camp.
My parents told me that you know, parents who send
their kids to camp just don't love their kids. My
parents told me the same thing. I swear to God,

(05:09):
and I believed them.

Speaker 6 (05:10):
I did.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
They never sent me to a camp. You want to
go to camp? You know who goes to camp?

Speaker 2 (05:14):
Parents who want to get rid of their parents, who
don't love their kids. I'm like, oh, they really brainwashed.
Acting back, it's like you just didn't want to spend
the money.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
You wanted to go to Camp Rock.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
So again things you missed out on or you felt
you missed out on as a kid. Mike, who runs
this place. Before he left, he said, Ooo, Mike, he
said anything that was considered violent was not allowed in
his home or in his upbringing, and he wasn't allowed
squirt guns, cap guns, anything, So he doesn't know the

(05:43):
beauty of that hot, warm plastic. You would, yeah, you
would drinks from the squirt gun in the summer. Yeah,
But get this, not only did he not have squirt
guns as he called them, or water pistols, right, he
wasn't allowed to watch three Stooge, which means to me
he probably couldn't watch the Looney Tunes.

Speaker 2 (06:03):
Anything that was deemed violent. If you couldn't watch mo
poke curly in the eyes.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
I don't think he was watching you know, beab some
Buttead or like I said, Looney Tunes or Tom and Jerry.
So no, he had no violence like policy at his house.

Speaker 5 (06:19):
I could kind of relate not with the violence because
for some reason my mom didn't care if we killed
each other. But as far as horror, she had a
no horror movie policy. So are using one syllable there horror?
Oh yeah, she didn't just watch the horror movies either.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Okay, yeah, so both fit there. Rich.

Speaker 2 (06:38):
Wow, so you couldn't watch scary movies.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
I was just gonna say, I just say scary movies,
but kids.

Speaker 5 (06:47):
Would talk about you know, Jason and Freddy, and you'd
have to like nod your head, like, yeah, I had
my mom. I saw those movies when I got into
my twenties, right, I would sneak that anyway.

Speaker 3 (06:57):
But I did have like girlfriends and wives or wife
that had like no supernatural, spiritual, creepy scary movies because
you're like summoning like just a weird energy in the house.
And there's part of me that does believe.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
That a little bit. To be honest, like some people
who don't celebrate Halloween. My mom didn't. She thought it
was wow. Yeah, she thought, so you missed that on
the parades as a kid. Yeah, Oh, Danny was the
guy I didn't mind. Oh you missed out, missed out, Danny.
What's out, Dann?

Speaker 6 (07:29):
Fire Two things. First of all, Notre Dame took the
opening kickoff for the second half back for a touchdown,
so they scored seventeen points in the span of about
fifty five seconds of game time.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
It's twenty three.

Speaker 6 (07:42):
They scored ten in the final minute of the first half,
and then took the ensuing kickoff on the start of
the second half back for a score, So it's yeah,
twenty to three Notre Dame over Georgia.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
dB.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
You're so right, because there was less than a minute
left in the first half and it was three to three. Yes,
And now we're a minute into the third quarter and
it's twenty to three.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
Yes, and likely becomes one dimensional with a backup quarterback
to Rich's point of when you're younger, why shoot a
three when you can get a good fifteen footer, especially
when you're five to ten like me, who would need
a three point shot back? Then yeah, or it's now
just basically the only thing that they do in the
NBA or anywhere else in fifteen foot jump shots are

(08:20):
basically extinct in any level of basketball.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
So Dan Bayer has a sweet mid range.

Speaker 6 (08:24):
Joe, why a pump fake and then take that step
and pull up from fifteen for that nice two point
shot right at the corner of the free throw lines.

Speaker 2 (08:34):
Hey, you're one of a TINDI very Hoosiers. Yes, you know,
I thought of another one. Now this is a little
later in life, but we're talking about things we missed
out on. Would you say it's also maybe because you
just didn't know any better. What's usually the reason your
parents didn't expose you? Or maybe you didn't know any better?

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Probably a little both. I'll give you one that I
don't think anyone in this room, as far as I know,
took it.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
If your parents or you or student loans, whatever you
however you got through college, no one that I know
at least took advantage of how studying abroad was like
the same price.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
Dude. Damn, that's a great like to me. It's like,
when I look back, I missed out on that. That's
a good one.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
It wasn't even an option, especially I study on the
coast in college. Yeah maybe you did, spot, but most
East Coast kids and again I'm just speaking.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Maybe it's the same for you, Danny.

Speaker 3 (09:28):
I don't know, but leaving the East Coast seemed like
out of the question. Let alone the country, you know,
let alone abroad.

Speaker 2 (09:37):
What if you were if you were paying tuition, like
I said, if you were paying loans your parents, however
you got through school. Guess maybe how we were raised
over but we didn't come from like a traveling family.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah, same here. I never left. I never left the
country as a kid.

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Like, but to think that, hey, if you're going to college,
hey in the spring, instead of going to the local
university for like practically the same amount of money, I
could go to I don't know, Barcelona for six months.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
You know, based on that rich Yeah, what an experience.
And now you know, we encourage those things to our kids,
but I feel like I missed out on that.

Speaker 5 (10:08):
Even like a warmer climate, we all stay to the
northeast about just traveling in general. Don Martin one of
our bosses, remember when he was here that day telling
all of us about how he made sure to take
his kids overseas growing up. He took them to lots
of different countries to experience a lot of different cultures
because he wanted them to see something other than where

(10:31):
they just were going to school.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
First time it was Epcot Center, so my dad, you know,
took us down that tour around.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
We went to Hershey Park in Pennsylvania. The closest I
got was Olive Garden. To tour of Italy we went.

Speaker 5 (10:44):
We took a drive when I was a little kid
to Montana. It might as well have been the Alps
because I felt like I was in a different country.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
No, that's true.

Speaker 3 (10:52):
It's something we feel that we may have missed out
on and rich Luckily this isn't my story. But when
people ask about our career, I feel like the one
advantage I always had and they missed out on was
an internship. Because people always say, how did you end
up doing that? Man, I'm like, cause I did an

(11:13):
internship and I got involved at a young age, and
I always feel like the internship for me was the
one thing that I didn't have that some people missed
out on because you got pint foot in the door.
So that's not my answer, but I imagine that could
be an answer for a lot of people like man,
I really missed out on an internship because people always
wanted experience. People always wanted to get their foot in

(11:34):
the door. That was your foot in the door, that
was my foot in the door. Let's let's go to
your feedback now.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Clint in Vegas, Clint on a throwback Thursday, Just a
random meme.

Speaker 1 (11:44):
What did you feel like you missed out on as
a kid? What's rich? Anybody?

Speaker 7 (11:48):
Big fan? Guys, big fans?

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Oh thanks man, No worries.

Speaker 7 (11:51):
I'm a truck driver in Vegas and I listened to
you all the time.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Thanks bro, No worries.

Speaker 7 (11:56):
But listen to this. So in nineteen ninety four, I
was eighteen. I had an old guy. His name is
mister Kepper. He was eighty four years old. He owned
one hundred acres and acciden covered in trees. He couldn't sell.
All he owned was ten thousand dollars for it. He
offered it to me. I didn't have ten thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
Imagine what that that is worked right now?

Speaker 2 (12:22):
You know, Danny g we have a million, We have
a buddy, and this is you know how we all
have peculiar friends.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
We know a guy in New York. He's a lawyer.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
We call him Showing the Lawyer, but he's an odd guy,
not your typical lawyer. Like he's every time you talk
to this guy somewhere else, like dude, where are you?
And he's always like up to some weird, weird situation.
He's the type of guy that would stop and talk
to a stranger in the street that was trying to
sell him something. He got pulled into a crypto seminar
in the two thousands, and he tells the stories like, yeah,

(12:52):
they were trying to found me on bitcoin and they
were telling me to buy it.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
It was like twenty cents and he he's like, no,
I'm just not feeling it.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
But he was one of those guys that, you know,
you hear this, here's a white opportunity. You know those
guys you hear like that, But a pizza with a
hundred bitcoin.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
He could have been one of those guys. And he's like, no,
I just told them.

Speaker 2 (13:10):
They asked me if I wanted a ton of bitcoin
for like one hundred bucks, and I said no, thanks.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
I got one sport related and music related missed out. Yeah,
missed out on once. Not my fault technically, I'll say
when I was a kid in high school, Nirvana really
never came around the East Coast maybe once before they
hit it big, before anyone really knew who they were.
Never got a chance to see. Nirvana always sort of

(13:35):
haunted me as a rock fan. And that's a band
at had huge influence on my life and career path,
right like when that grunge era hit, that changed everything.
And I never saw Nirvana ever, right, so I have that, man,
I feel like it really missed out on that. And
as a sports fan, who you know, we all grew

(13:55):
up wearing starter jackets in the nineties, hanging posters in
our room of all our heroes, every kid there was.
There was few athletes that were universally loved, guys like
Bo Jackson, but Michael Jordan's definitely one of them. Everybody
wanted to be like Mike, and I never saw Michael
Jordan play live ever.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
You know, we all have the opportunity. That's that's acceptable.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
You had the opportun but if your parents weren't bringing
it to the arenas, then that's not really on you.

Speaker 3 (14:22):
Maybe we didn't beg enough. We missed out on that
opportunity that bragging, right.

Speaker 2 (14:25):
I have a question, does this conversation extend two things
that are out of your control?

Speaker 3 (14:29):
I could have been my control. Dude, when did he retire?
Could have could have went to see Michael Georgia.

Speaker 1 (14:35):
Second, you're right saw him as a wizard?

Speaker 2 (14:38):
You were you were in college to think of the
second three peete and did in the late nineties you
were in college.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
Yeah, that's totally Unma well Rich. The meme says, what
do you feel like you missed out on?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
I forget missed out on being able to say it
doesn't matter if it was out of your control. What
did you miss out on? I'll tell you something I
missed out on. Dude.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
We were alive in the time of one of the
all time goats, and we didn't go out of our way.
I know what you're saying, to see.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Them or something.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
But do you think teenage Steve Cavino in the late
nineties was like, yo, my priority is to see history.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
You probably need to think about grabbing a but cheek
or something. Man, I didn't think i'd any of missund
on that.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
And speaking of which I feel like I mean and
luckily met my wife. She's amazing. I was just a
year or so away. Well, it sounds juicy, a year
or so away from when dating apps really took over.
I feel like what I and I know all my
single friends, but it's overrated.

Speaker 1 (15:32):
Don't worry about it. Oh it is.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
But I never got to swipe left and right. I
never when I see my single friends like, oh, look
at her, you swipe, swipe, swipe, there's a part of
me that's like, oh, knowing me and knowing my weaknesses, I.

Speaker 1 (15:47):
Would have been a disaster. Bunch of apps. Spot just
let him swipey, you know what's fun.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Guys like you that that are in that swiping world
tell me like, it's not as cool as you think.
But in my mind, I'm like, so you tell me
like I could just swipe left and right if I
wanted ID for these girls. I did it for a
little over a year and between my divorce, and it's
a very it's empty, feeling so empty unless maybe you're
in the right mind space and mindset for it.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
But I felt dirty.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
Guys that were married when I was single swiping like that,
they always made it sound like the booty just gets
delivered to your door. So easy, automatic, Oh so easy.
Can't believe it's so easy for you.

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Right door smash dot com.

Speaker 6 (16:33):
Make sure when you do it, you do it sober.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
Don't do it when you're drunk and then you wake
up the next day go why did I swipe right
on this? Oh my god? But I can see people
feel like they missed that on that for sure.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Because you know, in my in my mind, I had
to do it the as Apollo Creed would say, the
hard way. I had to go up to girls and
talk to them, be like a grown ass man. The
idea of a single guy being like she's hot, yes, yes, yes,
and just swiping to me is like, you know, let's say,
let's just call a guy that's all revved up.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
A lot of times, that's a dream, I think.

Speaker 6 (17:04):
You know, on that Ashley Madison documentary they did in
this sec ninety nine percent of the entries were guys
like you think it's like fifty to fifty. But to
your point as well, I think there's some guys who think, yeah,
I'll hop on and it'll just be you know, just
just be flooded with whatever. I'm sure there's an empty
feeling of dirtiness. But there's probably an also empty feeling

(17:27):
of not getting any sort of notifications on anything.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
I think about how you feel if you post a
cool picture of video and you're not getting the likes
you want.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
Imagine we'll go back on to it. Let me go
back on to Tinder, and it's like, no merchants.

Speaker 6 (17:39):
This guy I though he watched it, but he didn't
like it, and it was like you shirk, right.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
I feel like I missed that on as far as
our childhood. As far as childhood, again, it's about aging
out of things right before you know you.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
I aged out of it.

Speaker 3 (17:56):
I was already riding a BMX biker, you know, I
was already riding around the neighborhood and stuff. But you
see the other little kids in the neighborhood. They were
rolling up on their power wheels, like on their big
foot power wheels.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
You know, we never had a motorized never had always.
I was like, man, I just missed out on that.
That's kind of cool. I wish I had that. Go
to Let's go to Jen and Michigan, Jen, what did
you miss out on?

Speaker 4 (18:19):
Well?

Speaker 8 (18:20):
In ninth grade, I started in a program called Upward bounds.
I may have missed out on having summer, spending time
with friends, but I did get to do things I
wouldn't have gotten to do if I didn't join upward Bound.
Because I got to go to Canada. I got to
do things I would have not been able to if

(18:40):
I hadn't joined upward Bound.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
You know, thank you, Jen. You made me think of
some other stuff too as a parent. Now I'm a parent, right,
so you made me think of the things that I'm
kind of regretful of because I feel like my daughter
is missing out on things.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
But it's just a sign of the times. Like she
doesn't freely have.

Speaker 3 (18:59):
Sleepovers we did growing up, because you just assume in
today's world that everybody's a creep, you know, And honestly,
I feel like, ah, she's missing out on that a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
Well, just Tina never had a slumber party.

Speaker 2 (19:11):
She's had like a few, but I'd had friends that
would sleep over my house.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Every weekend almost to watch like horror movie horror.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
But again, she's a she's a young girl, and it's
a different time, and you don't know all their parents,
and I don't know if her dad's a creep or not.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Who where do you want to stay?

Speaker 3 (19:27):
And just the freedoms that we had of going outside
and wandering around town and riding your bike off into
another town. And I feel like my kid's missing out
on those things today.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
I think I feel bad about that as a parent.

Speaker 6 (19:39):
I think that's understandable though, because you know, we have
a three year old and my wife have talked about it.
In the future, there's not going to be sleepovers. But
the flip side of that as well is we're not
going to have any either, because you don't want to
be the family that only has the sleepovers at your place.
And there's something super weird brother, so our kid's gonna
grow up without it. It's just not going to happen.

(20:01):
And yeah, some of our best times growing up were
with those but yeah, we're not gonna that's.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
I mean, listen, and I'm not extremely close with the
other families or their family or their family members and
cousins even still though, like you don't know who to
trust anymore.

Speaker 1 (20:17):
I mean, I'm listen.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
I'm not saying go around willy nilly trusting everyone, but
there's got to be a sense of like some a
weird thing. But by the way, I don't want to
change subjects, but did you see this video of this
woman who got arrested because her ten year old kid
walked into town.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
To go to a store. Yes, it's like a viral story.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
How many times when you attend did you all the
comments where people like I used to go buy my
parents smokes when I was ten. This woman, yeah, she
said it was handcuffed because my kid walked into town
at ten years old. They're like, yeah, child endangerment. She's like, yeah,
but he like walked into town. You would get on
your bike and just sort of like do your own thing,

(21:03):
and that's just right. That's the thing of the past,
thing in the past. So I feel like my kid
is missing out. But you know what, they'll never be
able to live the life that you did. Like whatever you.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
Had doesn't it doesn't necessarily mean that they're gonna have
those same memories, those same type of things different times.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
It's so lird though.

Speaker 5 (21:20):
We would ride our bikes to San Bernardino to get
a pack of gum, Like you'd find yourself a couple
of towns over it.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Danny, I was I've described this feeling before, and I
think you just nailed it do you remember. It could
be a young girl too, But when you were a
young boy, you remember riding your bike and that feeling
you got when you're like, all right, I think I'm
one town too far.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
You're like, it's got a little dicey. I don't know
where I am.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
I don't recognize things, and my mom would probably not
want me to be this far, but you would go,
you would almost push it, like, all right, I'm one
town too far.

Speaker 1 (21:52):
It's gonna take me a minute to get home.

Speaker 2 (25:16):
So join us in about a half an hour. But
we're wrapping up old school when fifty hits things you
feel you missed out on as a kid. It could
be sports related. Maybe you never got that GT performer
you wanted. It could be whatever. Yeah, maybe you had
a ticket to something you weren't able to go. Oh man,
you could have went to the first WrestleMania, but you didn't.

Speaker 3 (25:37):
Things you feel you missed out on. Let's wrap it
up with three phone calls. Then I have a quick
question about the Shawn Watson too. We have time Scott
in Wyoming.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
What's up, Bud Hey?

Speaker 4 (25:46):
There fellas what I love the show?

Speaker 1 (25:48):
Thanks man?

Speaker 4 (25:50):
You bet twelve years old? You have to play catch
with Willie Stargel on the Pittsburgh three River Stadium sing out.
He signed a ball, came home within two weeks. I
thought everybody got to do that kind of crap when
I was a kid and we played with it, signatures
gone dog, ended up chewing on it. Got to wish

(26:12):
a fifty six years old. I'd love to have that
ball back.

Speaker 3 (26:15):
It sounds like a Sandlot movie. Now you know what
I heard this plot? You had the experience though, Scotts
Bert and Georgie.

Speaker 1 (26:21):
What's up Bert? Hey? Bert Hebert?

Speaker 7 (26:23):
So one quick thing growing up in New York, young
black kid in New York really didn't know about HBCUs,
didn't know about fraternity.

Speaker 4 (26:30):
One thing I wish.

Speaker 7 (26:31):
I did was pleasure fraternity, Especially after watching School Days
by Spike Lee. I'd like, oh man, I'm gonna do this,
but then realize there really not a lot of HBCUs
in New York.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
City to go with Big Bert. Thank you. Let's put
this nice to you, like take advantage of your youth
in a lot of ways.

Speaker 3 (26:48):
That's right when it comes down town. That's really it.
And Mark to wrap it up, what's up?

Speaker 9 (26:53):
How you doing?

Speaker 1 (26:54):
Hey, buddy?

Speaker 9 (26:55):
Hey, just want to say I missed out on a
lot of things, like like you guys, you guys got
to do college and stuff like that. But one thing
I didn't get to miss was the Lakers showtime back
in the eighties. I lived in San Antonio, and I
could go anytime I want it, every time they played
the Spurs.

Speaker 1 (27:15):
It's a good thing to see. Yeah, that's awesome, man.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
You know that our buddy West and Vegas hit us
up and he goes Cavino. I don't want to rub
it in, but you said how you missed Jordan even
as a wizard, just to see Michael Jordan, because just
to say, you'd he's the most prolific athlete of our life, right,
because you're you're going to tell your grandkids, yeah, I
used to watch Michael Jordan play.

Speaker 1 (27:34):
Really, Grandpa, did you did you go see him live?

Speaker 2 (27:37):
I mean, let's keep in mind nineteen eighty five, eighty
forty five, forty years ago. Now, so let's say in
the last forty to fifty years since we've been around.
Michael Jordan's number one, and West said he felt this,
He's like, I have to do it. So when Jordan
played as a wizard, he took his dad and he says,
it's like a core memory.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
Ah. Yeah, you know you'll never forget again.

Speaker 3 (28:01):
We're broadcasting live from the ti rack dot Com studio
tirac dot Com. I'll help you get there an unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road hazard protection, over ten thousand recommended installers.
Tire rack dot com wa tire buying should be all right?

Speaker 1 (28:13):
You want to do our solar power parlay? You want to?

Speaker 2 (28:16):
You want to want to get into this or what
we're not ready for. You're not ready for the solar
power parlay because I'll tell you what. I'm looking at
the games this week, and it is so hard to
bet on games when they really don't matter. When you
see these points Bridge, You're like, what am I betting?

(28:36):
But I do have a theory that we'll get to
and we'll do it right after Damn Buyer's update.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
What's up?

Speaker 6 (28:40):
Dbaate Hey, debaate guys, keeping you up to date of
what's happening at the Sugar Bowl. We told you that
there was a kickoff return for a score at the
opening of the second half. Here's how it sounded on
the Notre Dame Radio network.

Speaker 1 (28:51):
Get to start the halt. Jaden Harrison might get a
chance here.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
I'm gonna bring it out from his own two yard line,
cuts it inside, takes it out to the far side,
across the numbers.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Hold on the car stop.

Speaker 8 (29:00):
Jane Harrison hit the checks.

Speaker 1 (29:02):
Across midfield forty.

Speaker 2 (29:04):
Thirty tway ten hits a touchdown.

Speaker 7 (29:08):
Kick off return.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
I let's hear the pop cost this call.

Speaker 6 (29:17):
Touchdown Notre Dame twenty to three, Notre Dame Radio Network.
On the great call. There they are up twenty to ten,
now six oh six to go in the third quarter.
Georgia pulling within ten. Is Gunner Stockton h Cash Jones
for a touchdown pass but Notre Dame right now going
forward on fourth and one, up ten with six oh

(29:37):
six left to go in the third quarter, as they
are at midfield, so maybe a turning point here. On
this play, Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe is entering the NFL
Draft Gator Bowl Tonight, Duke it Ole miss eight o'clock
Eastern time. In the NFL, Bailey Zappy starts at quarterback
for the Browns against the Ravens. Bengals say Chase Brown
and T Higgins are questionable to face Pittsburgh on Saturday.

(30:00):
It doesn't look like Notre Dame god Let's sake.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Georgia stopped the momentum DV momentum.

Speaker 6 (30:05):
A second effort by Riley Leonard's going to make it close.
But I don't think yours is going to be enough.
I think you're right. We'll get the official minner you measurement, heer, you.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Let Georgia get the ball midfield. Listen. I'm not a conservative.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
I'm not a coach, by the way, but if I were,
I don't think that that's way aggressive.

Speaker 6 (30:22):
Very aggressive considering how all your defense is played. So yeah,
but this is the Riley Leonard had to get to
the forty nine yard line as the ball was at midfield,
and I looked like a lunge is just short. But again,
waiting for the official call. Couple of other notes. Anthony
Davis doubtful for the Lakers tonight against Portland Jaydon Ivy
as a fractured fibula of the Pistons guard head surgery.

(30:42):
He'll be re evaluated in a month, but it's likely
to miss most of the season. American gymnast Simone Biles
name Sports Illustrated sports Person of the Year and Notre
Dame is short. So Georgia will take over down ten
at midfield with five fifty forty two left to go
in the third quarter.

Speaker 1 (30:59):
Back to you, guys were probably inches.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
Cheez wow, that's a cheez it, So thank you, dB
dan Byer. Now we got Rich's solar power parlay to
look forward to if we have time.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
I do have a question about Deshaun Watson.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
All right, So Deshaun Watson question and a solar power parlay,
Hank Tight, We got that coming up next right here
on Fox Sports Radio with Cavino and Rich.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Happy New Year. We have until Monday, right, we could
say till Monday. Yes, that's when Rich said he's gonna
bring it. That's when the holiday season officially is over.
According to Rich, I.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Decided to soft launch into twenty twenty five. I'm bringing
it today, but not like not the way I'm going
to bring it like I look at Monday, like the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Which is still in week eight Yeah, he's still in
his pajama pants. Guys, still getting revved up.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Wait a second, you're going to be on the Herd
tomorrow the rest. Maybe I should bring it a little
more so, maybe you should wake up a little bit.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
Live from retire rack dot com studio again, we're Cavino
and rich In for Colin on the Herd Maniana. So
join us in the morning and we'll do some of
our weekend hobnobbing and all that good stuff. And remember
after the show today in about fifteen minutes, we go
live on Fox Sports Radios YouTube pagees our bonus podcast
called Over Promised. We do some taste testing. It involves

(32:18):
the Kelsey's that's your hint. We talk about NFL incentives
for week eighteen, where to put your money and crocs
at the gym.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
We solve this debate.

Speaker 3 (32:28):
We resolve it on Over Promised Fox Sports Radios YouTube
page or listen wherever you stream your podcast.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
Well, it's time for a Solar Power parlay. I think
we got this. Let's go. It's time to parlay into
your weekend. Rich Davis loves parlays you're making money, and
he loves his new solar panels. Solar boyd draft my
solar power parlay. Ah raight, you're making money?

Speaker 3 (32:55):
Do you really love your solar panels?

Speaker 4 (32:58):
Know what?

Speaker 1 (32:58):
I hate my water bill. That's the next thing I
gotta figure out. How do I handle that? Told me
where there were a way to like harness the rain?

Speaker 2 (33:06):
I know, Well, anyway, I gotta I gotta parlay that,
Danny Denny.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
When I tell you water pale parlay.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
When I tell you week eighteen, someone say this bet
you can make that are really easy, and others would
be like, well, how do you even bet some of
these games because you don't know what teams are coming
out there with. However, I've isolated four games a four
team parlay. I'm playing with the points, so please pay attention.
You know how a lot of times on DraftKings and

(33:37):
a lot of sites you could almost adjust what point
spread you want. Yeah, I'm going Atlanta Falcons. They're hosting
the Carolina Panthers. If they have any hope to make
the postseason, they need to win and they need Tampa
to loose.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
So Atlanta's playing to win.

Speaker 2 (33:51):
They Michael Pennix Junior is looking to like keep the
momentum going to see what he's got right. So Atlanta
definitely got the advantage that I think over Carolina. So
I pulled that down to minus six and a half.
So I need Atlanta to win by a touchdown. So
you got Atlanta beating Carolina. Okay, I said the Bucks.
The Bucks are thirteen and a half point favorites. I

(34:13):
bought seven points, but having the Bucks at minus six
and a half is minus three hundred. But it's in
the parlay now. So I got Tampa beating New Orleans
by six and a half.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
So I got both teams in the South.

Speaker 2 (34:28):
That need to win, playing the weakest teams in the
NFC South.

Speaker 1 (34:32):
Both need to just win by a touchdown.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
So fine, New Orleans is inspired and they've got more
to play for this week.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I don't believe in those type. You say that, and
you've been wrong every time you say something like that.
So Atlanta and Tampa two teams fighting. They both need
to beat trash teams by a touchdown. Now, I got
Gino Smith, who I'll talk about later on over promise
if they win, he wins two million dollars. One of
Gino Smith's incentives is two million dollars if he gets

(34:59):
to ten wins. And now the Seahawks have nine wins.
They're playing the Rams, who are starting Jimmy Garoppolo, no Stafford,
no Kyron Williams, no Cooper cup who.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
Knows about Nakua.

Speaker 2 (35:10):
So a resting Rams team and Gina Smith on the
other side of the ball gets two million.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
If he wins. I'm going Seahawks.

Speaker 3 (35:18):
So ye, Gino Smith has all those other incentives too,
so you know he's gonna be ball.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
So I got the Seahawks.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
I pulled that point spread down to minus two and
a half, so a field goal, a hook will be
we'll win that, right, So you got Atlanta and Tampa
both need to win by six and a half.

Speaker 1 (35:34):
I need the Seahawks to win by two and a half.

Speaker 2 (35:37):
And the other one is no Mahomes, maybe, no Kelsey,
no anyone for the Chiefs against Denver. Who's in and
wins That game's in Denver. If they're in, they if
they win, they're in. I pulled that down to minus
two and a half because that's a ten point. So
I got Atlanta, Seattle, Tampa, Denver, one hundred wins, two
sixty Solar power Parla code see our show at DraftKings.

(36:02):
It's an unconventional one, but I think Week eighteen you
gotta be a little unconventional. I'm just looking for I'm
just looking for teams that have a chance to play
for something.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
Really I like it.

Speaker 5 (36:12):
And now we mentioned no NFL tonight, but we do
have the Gator Bowl number fourteen old miss taken on Duke.
A lot of eyes on Jackson Dart. It's his final
college football game. He is going to be the best
quarterback off the board in the second round of the
NFL Draft.

Speaker 3 (36:26):
Jackson Dart tonight, enjoy your football and your thoughts on
Rich's solar power parlay. Let us know at Covino and
Rich again code see our show cr show on DraftKings
and before we go Rich quick question. Yeah, when you
see your buddy publicly posting his wife or girlfriend a

(36:49):
happy birthday or a happy anniversary or some mushy, gushy
love words, love words.

Speaker 1 (36:57):
Not very good at this, those things, mushy love worth.
I don't do those things. I just don't.

Speaker 3 (37:04):
I try to avoid them because I feel like they're
so forced do you automatically assume that they're in the
doghouse because there is a story Deshaun Watson and his girlfriend.
It was rumors in the past week that they were
broken up, right, So what does he do? He makes
a public post, Deshaun Watson, did Jilly a nice? Is

(37:26):
that how he's saying? Annis an Ais Jillian nice? And
he says, happy birthday to you, Queen forever, love you, MA,
grateful to celebrate with you, continue to smile and inspire,
and he goes on and on about me the Lord
bless you and blessings and health and success and happy
birthday and I love you and Mushy and Gushy wishing

(37:48):
her a happy twenty ninth. And to me, that's just
one of those indicators that you're in the doghouse.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
I think.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
I think public birthdays and anniversaries when they go overboard. Mushy, Yeah,
I do think something's brewing. But I do think that nowadays,
in twenty twenty five, it's not uncommon to wish your
significant other love on social media. Now, I think there's
signs that there's more trouble. The two biggest signs when
people have a joint social media account that means it

(38:17):
guy cheated.

Speaker 3 (38:18):
You got caught cheating for sure, without a doubt. You're
not trusted. Yes you lost.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
When the guy's wife or girlfriend is in the profile
picture with him, maybe he didn't cheat, but he's like,
it's very much insinuated, like he is taking Wow.

Speaker 6 (38:34):
Right.

Speaker 1 (38:35):
Yeah, no, I rare it actually, And.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
For younger people this is commonplace. But for if you're
not twenty years old, if you're I'll go out and say,
if you're over thirty something and your significant other has
your location tracking on your phone, you've done something stupid.
But you know all young people sort of do that.
That's why I said over thirty. Yeah, it's just the

(38:58):
way of the world.

Speaker 3 (38:59):
They know where everybody, all their friends, and everybody are
at at all times.

Speaker 2 (39:03):
I get if you got kids and different things. But
if you're a single guy, that's different. But I'm saying
yea if you're thirty. Let's say, if if you're thirty
five years old dating a girl and she has your location, yo,
that is like handcuffs.

Speaker 3 (39:15):
So do you have to wish your significant other a
public happy birthday? I don't think there's any harm in that,
but it is a sign that you could be in
the dog house. It's like when you see a dude
walking with flowers.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
Yeah, there's a part of like, what a.

Speaker 3 (39:30):
Nice guy, But there's another part that's saying sleep with Yeah,
he's in the dark house.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
When it's like two dozen flat red roses. Then I
think we.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
Saw a guy walking in the concourse over here, right
off a Ventura, like what about the.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
Like five hundred dollars in red roses?

Speaker 2 (39:47):
And we were like, yo, he really, he done messed
up big time now for real, Like you might get
one person, one lady, because it happened to me recently.
I was walking with flowers and some lady smiled at
me like she's gonna them, you know. But I know
every other guy that saw me with the flowers like
he's in the doghouse.

Speaker 1 (40:05):
What did he do? It's just one of those signs.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
Anytime I see my brother in law publicly gush over
my sister, I know she put him up to it,
or he's in the doghouse, he's sleeping on the couch.
In other words, because that's just not most of our
natural defaults to do things like that.

Speaker 5 (40:24):
I think some of us in the room have set
what's up on an anniversary, but birthdays, that's overboard.

Speaker 2 (40:29):
There's no shame in expressing your love, don't get it twisted.
But when it's overboard like that, it could be a
sign just saying your thoughts. Cobino and Rich at Fox
Sports Radio, You guys, we have sort of apologizing. Yeah,
a little bit, but they say the universal way a
woman apologizes when she's laying in bed, she just leans
her buttonte a little more.

Speaker 4 (40:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Yeah, that means I'm sorry. That's a woman. I'm sorry.
All right, We'll see you guys tomorrow in for the herd.

Speaker 2 (40:51):
Until then, have a good one. Over promises next Riba.
There she'd see you in the over Promised Land.
