Tone & Atmosphere

The hosts’ signature mix of New York edge, sports obsession, and good-natured ribbing keeps the energy high. Real fans and on-air talent both become targets for “fraud” accusations, but the segment is always playful and self-aware.

Summary

This special Beach Bash edition of Don, Hahn & Rosenberg is a showcase of the trio’s chemistry and community, channeling their love of New York sports and the people who obsess over them. Family Feud brings out both competitive spirits and comedic chaos, while “Fraud Alert Friday” lets both fans and pros confess, defend, or be declared frauds (often jovially), defining the lighter side of sports talk radio.

If you want a sample: listen from [02:43–12:18] for the Family Feud fireworks and [35:25–38:40] for a classic debate on what makes a “fraud” fan.

I got a song that I picked out. Shout out to Surfing for Daisy.

[Don Hahn]

They did great.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Terrific.

[Don Hahn]

Sounds so good.

[Peter Rosenberg]

One of the best bands we've ever had. They're tight. They're ready. They're accepting of me performing my song. I love that for you.

[Don Hahn]

Well, we'll see. We'll see how accepting they are once they.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I am willing to put myself out there. I'm either going to entertain the people by giving quality music or something that you guys can laugh at, or you're

[Don Hahn]

going to make the band quit and walk out.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Hey, they might. I mean this. And they're, they're, they're. They have a record label. They're not messing around.

[Don Hahn]

No, no, they're for real.

[Peter Rosenberg]

But they're willing and they're fans of the show. Right. I mean, you guys have been listening to me, right? So I think they're going to try to do me right. I got to do a song and we'll perform it at some point. You want it sooner or later. Yeah, they want it sooner because these people are out there sweltering. Yeah. No, I really do have to give props to the people that are here. Please hydrate. This is one of those days where I could not begrudge anyone who said, I just can't do it. This is like. It is A no. But the people are the hottest we've ever done. So we've been talking about this for years, and if we lose anyone, we'll do next year's in their memory. That's right. If for those on the heat stroke count, the over under was 7, we are cruising past that at 11. So 11 cases of heat stroke so far. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce to you a star. He's been in New York sports radio forever. He is the voice of Rutgers football. Oh, you bet. He's the reason you listen from 10 to 1 here on ESPN New York. You bet your ass. His name is Chris Carlin, and he's our host for Family Feud.

[Chris Carlin]

Hi, everybody.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Hey, Chris.

[Chris Carlin]

How are you?

[Peter Rosenberg]

You look like a millionaire.

[Chris Carlin]

Let me tell you something. That all that baseball talk, you brought it yesterday up until the Anders league acquisition by Utah. Then we shifted over to the Boston, and as soon as the Celtics made a move, perk up, there he is.

[Peter Rosenberg]

By the way, you're one of the worst people in the business.

[Chris Carlin]

Yes, I am.

[Peter Rosenberg]

No, like you're.

[Chris Carlin]

I am.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Because.

[Chris Carlin]

By the way, Don, I was looking for more on Anders Lee. I couldn't get any more than I got. I got a mention. That's. Give me five. By the way, that's one thing that

[Peter Rosenberg]

makes him such a bad guy, Don.

[Don Hahn]

I wasn't there. We would have gone a full half hour.

[Peter Rosenberg]

By the way, Don, that's the thing that makes us a bad guy. He's simultaneously mocking me for talking, not talking baseball while also mocking the idea of talking baseball, period.

[Chris Carlin]

Well, talking hockey. Anders Lee's a hockey punch. I don't know if you knew that.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I think that confirms everything that Garland just said. All right. The Anders Lee times. You just got to be able to take the out. Now, what really makes me proud to have worked here in two months, it'll be 25 years. Is the complete disorganization. So what exactly do we have going on right now with Family Feud?

[Chris Carlin]

What we have is we're going to play Family Feud here when Rick decides he wants to come up to the stage.

[Don Hahn]

Where's Bart?

[Chris Carlin]

Because, you know, I don't know where Bart is.

[Don Hahn]

Here's a question.

[Chris Carlin]

I. Bart is unavoidably detained at the moment.

[Don Hahn]

You have to answer those questions these days, Bart.

[Chris Carlin]

It will be with us momentarily. I'm very confident.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right, Don, give us the Anders Lee assessment now. Let's talk Rangers for a moment, shall we? Carlin is the host.

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah.

[Peter Rosenberg]

So I guess it's going to be. Since this is the show. Don Hunt and Rosenberg are going to be the three of us, I guess, against Michael, Dave Rothenberg, and whoever shows up. Because to think that both Bart and Rick will make the stage is a pipe dream. All right, Rick's there. He's coming now. He's got a back issue. He's moving slowly.

[Don Hahn]

Bart Scott to the stage, please.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Rick, I think we're good with it.

[Chris Carlin]

I think. Did Rick hurt his back going to the bank Yesterday? It was July 1st.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Come on.

[Chris Carlin]

I know, I know. He doesn't get paid on July 1st. He gets it every other week, direct deposit.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Him and Bobby Bonilla get together every July 1st. No, he started it.

[Chris Carlin]

I'm just. Did the islanders make you bring a mask and a gun every July 1st to make it look good?

[Peter Rosenberg]

By the way, I wish someone made

[Don Hahn]

fun of me for just getting right.

[Chris Carlin]

So do I. By the way, if somebody made fun of me for collecting a check, a

[Peter Rosenberg]

check for a million dollars every time. All right, so it's going to be. It's going to be us.

[Chris Carlin]

I had Rick, Dave, Michael.

[Peter Rosenberg]

So why don't you guys move over to by Michael K. All right.

[Don Hahn]

There you go.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Alan, come over here. All right, I know. I know it. I know you long to still be on that side of the table, Alan, but you're Don on a Rosenberg for the foreseeable future.

[Chris Carlin]

Believe there's a handheld mic for you there, Rick, or for Don or whoever.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Here you go. There's a mic under the table. That's what she said, so grab it. Someone take them. Not the guy with the bad bag.

[Chris Carlin]

Didn't the Flyers guy get fired for that? Maybe we don't go there, huh?

[Peter Rosenberg]

That's right. For Tim Saunders. Headsets. Who thought he'd be the butt of a joke at the beach.

[Chris Carlin]

This is Family Feud as we know it. And it is a sports. New York sports version of Family Feud. It'll be Don, Hahn and Rosenberg against Rick, Dave and Michael. And Bart is here as well.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Show me Anders Lee.

[Chris Carlin]

I like your chances today. I really like it. Here's the deal. We will ask you New York sports related questions. You will give me the top X number of answers on the board. Will do it in every way they do it on the Family Feud. One difference is we're not gonna go three to one side, three to another. You miss one, we're going to the other side. They miss one, we go back. It's like that.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right, cool.

[Chris Carlin]

All right, I get it. So here's the deal, Jacob. If we are ready to Begin. We can let this fly. I believe you've got the questions and answers, so we'll start here.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Can someone turn the monitor down slightly or Chris's mic? We're getting a slight bit of feedback.

[Chris Carlin]

Sorry, I'm not even gonna Listen. We asked 31 people. Give me the top five answers on the board.

[Chris Carlin]

Here's the deal, Pickleball.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Let's have a conversation. We're gonna go with baseball. No. No one would say that. No reasonable person.

[Chris Carlin]

We're gonna go baseball. Show me baseball.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Got it.

[Chris Carlin]

You know what's a winner? Okay.

[Peter Rosenberg]

End the game.

[Don Hahn]

Logic and reason do not exist in this dojo.

[Peter Rosenberg]

My God.

[Chris Carlin]

No. Yeah. They. I said if they get this, they win.

[Peter Rosenberg]

They.

[Chris Carlin]

Because you're three. Three a piece. No, no, no. You. If they're wrong, you get another chance. But if they're right, they win. You seen the Family Feud? I don't know if you. I need an answer. You're taking too long.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Tennis.

[Chris Carlin]

Show me. Nope. Boys. No. You got one more. Now, here's the deal. If you get the answer, you win. You get the answer wrong, they win.

[Don Hahn]

[Peter Rosenberg]

So if they're. If they get.

[Chris Carlin]

I'm sorry. The answers so far have been basketball, baseball, hockey and soccer.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Can you repeat the question?

[Chris Carlin]

What sport do you think you could have the most success at if you were dropped into a professional game without training? I need an answer.

[Peter Rosenberg]

If they're wrong, it's over, right?

[Chris Carlin]

Yes.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I want to know the rules.

[Chris Carlin]

This is it.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, my Lord. No way. That just happened. That's not even professional sport. Pickleball is professional.

[Don Hahn]

Oh, my God.

[Chris Carlin]

And I might point out. I might point out if all of you geniuses have just been listening to Bart Scott for the last five minutes. He's been standing here saying pickleball for 10 minutes. Yes, he did.

[Peter Rosenberg]

He did say pickleball many times. I would I do it again.

[Don Hahn]

There's no way. There's no way that would even come up.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Pick that up with your bad back at all.

[Don Hahn]

Jesus.

[Chris Carlin]

Well, mercifully, that has come to an end. And Don's got guard Chris.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Chris, you were the mvp.

[Chris Carlin]

If you could remove the dead horse that we just beat over here, that'd be great. Guys, awesome job. Hanging in there with pickleball. That's a hell of a job. Hell of a job. Chris Carlin, folks.

[Don Hahn]

That was not worth it.

[Chris Carlin]

Take care, everybody.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Thank you so much.

Yeah, sure, I'm sure.

[Chris Carlin]

I have a read.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Fraud Alert Friday is brought to you by our friends at d' Agostino Law.

[Chris Carlin]

D'.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Agostino. Don. We don't have a ton of emails this week, but we got a bunch of people here. Oh, you know what? We got a microphone. If you got a fraud question, step up. Does anybody have a fraud question? That's a great point. No, you just gave Paul a heart attack. He's gonna have to get the wireless mic connected.

[Don Hahn]

Hustling. Look at him hustle.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Look at him. Oh, he's ready. You know, that would be fun. Oh, no, no, he's working. You don't have a question, Everyone.

[Don Hahn]

No.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Everyone shy or is it the heat stroke? It's the heat stroke. Oh, Michael's got a throttle. You've got a microphone. You know you need that here, Michael. What's the matter with the headset? You above it? Well, it's not working, so you gotta hear me. He's on it.

[Don Hahn]

Wait, wait, he's on it. No, no, that's good. You're good. Here you go. There you go.

[Peter Rosenberg]

No, he's not.

[Don Hahn]

Still not. Wait, I heard it.

[Peter Rosenberg]

No, just give it up, Alan.

[Don Hahn]

You have fun.

[Peter Rosenberg]

There you go.

[Chris Carlin]

If you have no interest whatsoever in the beautiful game, and all of a sudden, once every four years, you're so into it and you have to watch it. Are you a fraud?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, I'm gonna say no fraud for the same reason why at the Olympics? Well, nobody watches curling, but all of a sudden, if Team USA is playing well in curling, you're like, oh, I'm gonna root for them to win a gold medal.

[Chris Carlin]

And the frauds.

[Peter Rosenberg]

World cup and Olympics, I think, are just not subject to fraud behavior.

[Don Hahn]

They're not.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Because nobody's. I can't. I can't. How are you going to call them if all of a sudden your country's involved in something and you have a rooting interest.

[Don Hahn]

May I approach the bench?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Go ahead, Alan.

[Don Hahn]

All right. What's different about the Olympics compared to the World cup is that in the Olympics, those sports aren't something that you're seeing prominently all the time. Time. Right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Okay.

[Don Hahn]

Whereas the World cup, soccer is prominent all the time, but you aren't checking in on mls, the Premier League and all that other stuff. You don't care about the players then. But you do because it's the World Cup. It's a lot different.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah, hold on.

[Don Hahn]

But the reason that's the case, I'm

[Peter Rosenberg]

pushing, but that the case. Let me, I'd like to present on the other side and I'll win this very easily. I hear what council is suggesting. If you want to, you know, compare club soccer and following individual players. No World cup is about following country. So it's not. You're not a fraud because you don't follow a club team. Because I'm not a, you know, an FC Barcelona fan during the season and I care about what the US international team does. And the fact of the matter is the number one most important event by a by 10 country miles is the World Cup.

[Chris Carlin]

I would like, I can't disagree more with Fu Lee Daly.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I like that. The reason I again, I'm gonna stick with my original ruling, thank you. That it's, it's non fraudulent is if you're just interested in the game. You're watching the game, you're rooting for the country. That's not fraudulent. What would be fraudulent to me is all of a sudden now you're like, Joe Soccer. Like, you're, you're talking like, oh, this game is the greatest game. And then you start calling up talk shows and discussing it, totally into it. And then when it's over, you have no interest in it at all. Like, you could just say, listen, I'm not a fan, but I love my country and I'm interested in this. And then admitting that once this is over, I'm out. So that's, that's it. There's a simple way to do it, though. I know it because it's the way I do it. I, I, when people ask me, I don't say I'm a soccer fan. I say I'm a huge fan of World cup and I love the World cup. And what is it coming at the expense of? Thank you. You're neutral, right? Like, are you a fraud if you're not a football fan, but you go to a Super Bowl Party and you decide. I'm going to root for the Seahawks because I, I have them in a bet, so I'm just going to root for the Seahawks. I'm not, I'm not a Seahawk fan. I'm not a football fan. But you know what? I'm at a party, I'm enjoying the super bowl, and I'm going to root for a team to get me through the three hours of the game. And then he completely shut off football.

[Chris Carlin]

But in Peter's way of thinking, well, I don't like sex, but I just like porn. I mean, stop.

[Peter Rosenberg]

That is a terrible con. An interesting one. Yeah. Because World Cup. Cup is the sex. In that, in that version, World cup is the sex. Everything else is porn. You're waiting for World cup and you're

[Don Hahn]

waiting every four years for it.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah, every four years.

[Don Hahn]

All right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

As, as some people understand. Who else do we have?

[Chris Carlin]

I have another one if you want.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Okay.

[Chris Carlin]

Keep. Unless there are people waiting.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, wait, Anthony has someone good.

[Chris Carlin]

All right, let them do it.

[Chris Carlin]

Right?

[Don Hahn]

He's a piss.

[Chris Carlin]

Which is.

[Don Hahn]

Okay, we have to pull him up. Does he have to take the stand?

[Peter Rosenberg]

I don't know. Do you want to lose the whole segment?

[Don Hahn]

Yeah.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Wow.

[Chris Carlin]

He's going to run wild.

[Don Hahn]

That's epitome of fraud right there. I, I, there's no.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I appreciate your opinion, but only mine counts.

[Don Hahn]

Oh, wow. Okay.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I like that. Don said that. Does that is, is he an ear shot or he's cuz. No. Colossal fraud. Super fraud. Super fraud.

[Don Hahn]

Oh, put a cape on.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Former NFL great. A Jace fraud. A super fraud. Super. Oh, we've seen super fraud. No, the very first ever linebacker fraud. You've never seen this before. We've never had a linebacker fraud before.

[Don Hahn]

All right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Michael, you said you had another one.

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah, I get this a lot. Okay, so when your team is struggling, struggling, and then the fans come out and go, that's it. I'm done. I'm not watching anymore. Fraud or not.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Well, I need, I have a question.

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Do they return?

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, yeah. That's a big fraud in my world. You know, if you want, you could tap out, right? You just say, you know what? I'm done with the Mets. I'm sick of the losing. You can't just become a Yankee fan. You can't just decide, I'm going to root for time. The first Red Sox, you want to be out, be out. But that means you are out and you can't come back either.

[Chris Carlin]

Right. So when they make a big run in September, you can't say, oh, I'm

[Peter Rosenberg]

back in now, but what about next year? If you say, I'm tapping out this year, they're wasting my time this year. Listen, there's all different forms of tapping out. Like, I'd have to really question your sanity if you're sitting there watching every inning of every Met game the rest of the season. Yeah, nuts. But Michael's talking about the people that call up. It's like, if they don't fire up, I'm done with this team.

[Chris Carlin]

Team.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I'm done. I'm out. And then two weeks later, they're calling because they won five in a row. Fraud. Very good one. Anthony. Anthony, I'm told we have another fraud.

[Don Hahn]

How you doing? My name is Randy from the Bronx.

[Peter Rosenberg]

First time.

[Don Hahn]

First time.

[Peter Rosenberg]

What's up Going on, brothers? All right.

[Chris Carlin]

This was directed to Peter.

[Don Hahn]

Peter. Yes.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Since Jaylen Brown got traded to the

[Don Hahn]

76ers, I don't like what's going on.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah.

[Don Hahn]

Oh, you know what's going on.

[Chris Carlin]

Come October, when you do.

[Don Hahn]

When you guys do NBA predictions, Peter go out and say, I'm a Knicks fan.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Will he be a fraud or not? I mean, come on. Is that even a question? Go ahead. That's not a question.

[Don Hahn]

He's already actually confessed.

[Peter Rosenberg]

That's poster boy. I don't know where I currently stand with Judge legreca in terms of my fraudhood. Well, if you declared yourself a Nick fan, next year, you're gonna be a fraud. But I never did that. But he's saying, yeah, but because of the Jalen Brown trade.

[Chris Carlin]

No.

[Peter Rosenberg]

If we get to I'm Albert, I'm more in than I've ever been. I, I, I. The hatred I have for the Celtics right now really has me committed. Yeah, because if you weren't all in on the Celtics, this wouldn't bother you as much. It does. We were on Live Together yesterday. I was almost surprised at how angry I was, considering it had been talked about so much. The level of surprise, you didn't see

[Don Hahn]

it coming, did you? It made me believe it would happen. I thought.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Honestly, I thought the deal was fair. I thought it was D. Brown that they traded.

[Don Hahn]

And a pair of Reebok.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah, that's right.

[Don Hahn]

That would have helped.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right.

[Don Hahn]

That would have been a better deal.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Same number next.

[Chris Carlin]

All right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right. I'm Chris from Tom's River. All right. All right. Hey, Chris. How you doing? So my. My grandpa was a big packers fan. All right? So in 97, he dressed me up in packers gear and everything. Good time. Good, great time. Very good time. But, but Sterling Sharp, Brett Harvey, to this day, I am a Giants fan no matter what. I roof the Giants. I don't roof the Packers. Okay? So that's where I'm at right now. When did you switch? When did you make the change? Probably right. Right around that time. Like, I. I was like 97. I was 7 years old in 97. And you. And you became a Giants fan. I became a Giants fan.

[Don Hahn]

But you, you were. You were put in packers gear.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Packers gear.

[Don Hahn]

Like you. You didn't ask for that. I didn't ask.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Your grandfather did that.

[Don Hahn]

All right, Dottie Judge, he sounds for the judge.

[Peter Rosenberg]

He sounds like a fraud grandson, but a fine fan. Yeah. I don't know what you did to your grandfather, but. No, first of all, he was seven. So to me, that's still a year before you have.

[Don Hahn]

That's right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Right. No declaration. Yo, listen, your grandfather dresses you up when he's supposed to do it. Your grandfather. And then he decided to be a Giants fan. Still a Giant fan, right? No fraud. No fraud. Yeah, no fraud.

[Don Hahn]

Well done.

[Chris Carlin]

They're singing the second.

[Don Hahn]

How about the. How about the crowd singing along the jingle?

[Peter Rosenberg]

How about the weird effect that just. All right, why is. Everybody sing it? Ready? Two, one, Dagano. All right, no frauds here. That'll do it for fraud alert. Brought to you by dago law. 35 years getting accident victims every.

[Don Hahn]

What do we do?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Social Security, disability clients, every dollar. They deserve office. New York, New Jersey, 1, 800 by back 1-800-248-32, Daxine. All by packaging.

[Don Hahn]

Who wants more fraud? Who's got more fraud?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Got something going here. Oh, you know what? I'll take more fraud. Is he quitting now?

[Don Hahn]

Well, I'll tell you what. While you guys are figuring that out.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, we figured it out.

[Don Hahn]

I want to talk about ring's end. Of course. Back in my house right now, we got the project going on. I'm hoping everything's going swimmingly. I'm not there right now, but I know it is because the French door is in and it's beautiful. And I got it from ring's end. Rings end is where you want to go if you need windows, doors or anything to open. Update and upgrade your home, including kitchens, lumber, everything else. They are a northeast company, everybody. Eight full service lumber yards in Connecticut And Westchester county and 12 freestanding paint centers as well. They have all the things that you need and all the things that contractors love to work with because they have the high end products that you're looking for. And by the way, if you can't shop online, just. If you can't shop in store, of course, go [e-mail]. that's ringsend.com. more fraud.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, yeah.

[Chris Carlin]

You know what?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Can I say one thing, Alan?

[Don Hahn]

Yeah.

[Chris Carlin]

It shows the power of afternoon drive.

[Don Hahn]

Why is that?

[Chris Carlin]

I've been begging for windows and doors. Oh, we can. Nobody will do it.

[Don Hahn]

I know a guy. Yeah, you know a guy, but I know a guy.

[Chris Carlin]

I'm nobody now.

[Don Hahn]

They're up in Westchester.

[Chris Carlin]

Thank you, Sales. Thank you.

[Don Hahn]

They're in Connecticut.

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah, I know.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Lawyers got together and have filed for an extension.

[Don Hahn]

All right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

And I grant that extension attention. So we are going to take front alert Friday. And real quick, before I forget, don't forget anything. We. We were brought. We were brought this gift by one of the. Where's our.

[Chris Carlin]

Who.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Where's the guy who brought this?

[Don Hahn]

Okay, watch them.

[Peter Rosenberg]

There you are. Look at the gentleman who brought this fantastic shirt. Don, read this to the people. I'm gonna read this to the people. This happened the other day. Our mics now sound like ass. I don't know. Is like having caviar and sex.

[Don Hahn]

Yes, it is.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Michael, you'll appreciate it that at the end of the show it was. Yeah. And you said it. That I turned red like somebody scored a goal. Yeah, because Peter went having caviar and sex. Trust me, we don't want to be

[Chris Carlin]

a Mick Jagger having caviar and sex.

[Peter Rosenberg]

And I laughed all the way down the elevator, out the door.

[Don Hahn]

And now that song will never be the same to you, Charlene.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right, any more frauds? Here we go.

[Don Hahn]

All right, let's go. Hi, Patrick from Queens. Hello. Happy birthday, Patrick. Thanks, man. Good man.

[Peter Rosenberg]

So I started watching basketball around 2000, 2001. Okay.

[Don Hahn]

So I'm from Latin America. And my.

[Peter Rosenberg]

When I first started watching basketball, I saw Ginobili was from Argentina. So I like the spurs until he retired. I'm like, once the spur. Once he retires, I'm done. I'm going back to the Knicks. 2014, 15. So. No, no, no, no, no, no. Hear me out. No, no.

[Don Hahn]

So I've been through Courtney Lee, Kevin Knox, Lonzo Trier. So he's been through it. He's been through it.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I've been through it.

[Don Hahn]

I've been through it.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Because you're nobly retired a long time ago.

[Don Hahn]

Yeah, he did. Yeah.

[Peter Rosenberg]

So I'm like, once he retires, you know what? I'm going.

[Don Hahn]

Let me just get this straight. I'll represent you right now. Okay, so this is a good time for you now to just lead the fifth. I'll take it from here. Just correct me if I'm wrong. You started out as a Knicks fan, then went to the spurs because of the spurs. Because. So you started with Spurs. He was.

[Peter Rosenberg]

He was Argentinian.

[Don Hahn]

So. Because you said, I went back to the Knicks. That's what I wanted to make sure. So you.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Because I'm from New York, so.

[Don Hahn]

Yeah, right. Okay. So then you went to the Knicks, and after Genobi retired. No, no. All right. No, no. But he went through. Through a lot of dark years. Well, I. I stuck with it. Lonzo spurs kept winning.

[Peter Rosenberg]

You remember Lonzo Trier?

[Don Hahn]

I do. Of course I do.

[Chris Carlin]

Yeah.

[Don Hahn]

Okay.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Are you kidding me?

[Don Hahn]

He's best friends.

[Chris Carlin]

Courtney Lee.

[Don Hahn]

Got you. So the. The point that he's making is that he went through the tough years, never went back to the spurs, who kept on winning, and he stayed through it all. And now, you know, he remains a Knicks fan who now is enjoying a championship. He wants to know, does that still make him a fraud? Because he was cheering for the spurs when they had Ginobili. Because of Ginobili.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I'm going to do something that's never been done. Oh, my God. Wow, this is exciting. I'm going to go down and meet. Meet the client. Oh, okay.

[Don Hahn]

It's going to be a personal conversation.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Oh, let's see what happens.

[Don Hahn]

All right. Don McGregor took off the headset. He's stepping off the stage. Careful, Don.

[Peter Rosenberg]

This is. We've never seen this dangerous.

[Don Hahn]

He's heading now over to Patrick.

[Chris Carlin]

It's innocent, proper. You can't do the same.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I don't know if a judge can

[Don Hahn]

do this meeting in the chambers, as they say. And here is Don. Okay, Don has the mic.

[Peter Rosenberg]

What's your name again?

[Don Hahn]

Patrick from Queens.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Patrick from Queens. I've never done this before, ever. I put my arm around you. I'm gonna look right at you.

[Don Hahn]

Uh oh, he's gonna kiss him. He's gonna kiss him, isn't he?

[Peter Rosenberg]

You, my friend, are a fraud. I love what he did.

[Don Hahn]

That was great. Wow, that was a fantastic performance. The judge now returning to. From his chambers to the bench.

[Peter Rosenberg]

This is what a professional judge does. Lance Ito, who. What's going to happen when the next Argentinian basketball player comes and joins the Sacramento Kings? What's he going to do then?

[Don Hahn]

Are you going to jump to them?

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right, next up right there, bro.

[Chris Carlin]

Okay. Nick from Fanwood.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Happy birthday, by the way.

[Chris Carlin]

Yep.

[Don Hahn]

All right, Nick's up.

[Peter Rosenberg]

All right, Nick.

[Chris Carlin]

So growing up, I'm from New Jersey. I kind of like the Nets.

[Peter Rosenberg]

They leave to go to Brooklyn.

[Don Hahn]

What's this kind of. What's this kind of kinda. What's kinda?

[Chris Carlin]

In the monotony of everyday life, I've become more of a sports fan than when I was a kid.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Okay, all right, all right, all right, all right, I'll hear him out.

[Chris Carlin]

And the Nets moved.

[Don Hahn]

Screw them.

[Chris Carlin]

I like the Knicks.

[Don Hahn]

When.

[Chris Carlin]

Whenever the Nets moved.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Whatever year that was.

[Chris Carlin]

2012.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah, 15 years ago or something like that. And you, and you. Huh? That's interesting, Don. So he was like not. He was not a big sports fan and he was a kind of a Nets fan and then the Nets. And how big a Nick fan are you now?

[Chris Carlin]

Big time.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Big time. Fraud. I'm kind of like the kind of liking the Nets. You kind of crushed them.

[Don Hahn]

Now. What type of fraud is this? What type of fraud though?

[Peter Rosenberg]

Yeah, what is that kind of fraud?

[Don Hahn]

This is not your garden variety fraud.

[Peter Rosenberg]

It's a half ass fraud. Yeah, I like that. Half ass fraud.

[Don Hahn]

It's half ass fraud.

[Peter Rosenberg]

But I like him. And he came to the beach bash. He seems like a great guy. Fraud. So my closest friends are frauds. Two more. We got two more.

[Don Hahn]

All right.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Hi, Justin from Westfield. This goes along the grandparents one. My father in law was a huge Jet fan for many, many years. When I met my wife, we had our son in 2015 and he became. My son became a Giant fan. It was a Giant fan. I'm a Giant fan. So my father in law, who had flags of the jets outside his house suddenly switch once. My son came old enough to Giants and now all of a sudden it's Giants. Giants. So for my father in law, is he a fraud or did he just go with the first. First grandchild? All right, your father in law. Okay, here we go. Is a great man. Your father in law is a family man. Your father in law is a good man. Your father in law is going to heaven and he'll go to heaven as a fraud. See, now the judge is just getting started. The judge is just getting warmed up.

[Don Hahn]

He's warmed up now.

[Peter Rosenberg]

He's warm now. Who else?

[Don Hahn]

Oh, here we go.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Anyone have anything? All right, last one, last one.

[Don Hahn]

Hey, guys.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Mike from Wayne.

[Chris Carlin]

So mine's a little bit fraud.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Nick's.

[Don Hahn]

But.

[Peter Rosenberg]

But it's a little bit different. So in my household, I'm a Nick. I'm a Jets, Nets. I'm sorry, Mets, Knicks Rangers fan.

[Chris Carlin]

But because of my brother, that's where

[Peter Rosenberg]

my fandom came from. I was always secretly a Knicks fan, especially when they went against Michael Jordan

[Chris Carlin]

early in the 90s when they moved over to Brooklyn. I was, you know, on my own by that point. You know, graduated.

[Peter Rosenberg]

I was in college, and I fully

[Chris Carlin]

went Knicks because of Melo and the whole thing. So I'm a Knicks fan. I'm considered Knicks fan, even if my brother hates it. Now. Am I a fraud?

[Peter Rosenberg]

What was his name again? What's your name? What's your name? Give him the microphone again. Give him a microphone again.

[Don Hahn]

Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike.

[Peter Rosenberg]

Give him the microphone. I'm gonna do something that's never been done before. I want you to say it because you know it.

[Chris Carlin]

I'm a fraud.

[Peter Rosenberg]

He knew. He knew. And I think the fact that he knew, I think it just hit a little better that he was the one to say it. It's cathartic, right? To be able to admit it. The first step to getting cured is admitting there's a problem. Wow. Judge Lagreca, at your best. That is our extended version of Fraud Alert Friday, brought to you by d' Agostino Law.

[Don Hahn]
