Key Topics & Insights

1. Divisional Round Picks & Discussion

[07:04–21:50]

Contest Recap & Listener Engagement

• The crew celebrates listeners who went 6 for 6 on parlay picks last week, awarding C&R prize packs, and invites fans to join this week's 4-for-4 contest for a chance to win a Nerf football.
  • "If you go four for four, we will send you out a prize." — Danny G (06:19)

Matchup Breakdowns & Staff Picks

Game 1: Bills @ Broncos

• Buffalo Bills: Panel sees them as a team on a mission, largely resting on Josh Allen's shoulders.
• Denver Broncos: Recent surge, but concerns about facing Allen.
• Unanimous Picks: Most of the panel sides with Buffalo, citing Allen's form and Denver's vulnerabilities; only Isaac picks Denver, citing their league-leading 68 sacks.
  • Quote: "Josh Allen's a man on a mission... I think the Broncos lose this game. I think Josh Allen 34–17." — Rich Davis (09:04)
  • Isaac counters: "All that stuff cannot be overcome by 68 sacks... it's going to be Denver." (11:14)

Game 2: 49ers @ Seahawks

• Injury concerns for the 49ers (Kittle, Warner), inconsistent Sam Darnold.
• Most expect a close game, with several picking the Niners to cover +7 but unsure about the outright win.
  • "Sam Darnold, who knows what. He can either have the greatest game or the weakest game." — Steve Covino (13:42)
  • "I'm picking the Seahawks. I'm sorry, Rich. With my head.” — Iowa Sam (14:17)

Game 3: Texans @ Patriots

• Patriots favored by three at home.
• Texans’ defense highly touted by several panelists, but Patriots are seen as solid favorites at home.
• Split panel: Rich and Isaac go Texans, others (Covino, Danny G, Spot) go Patriots.
  • "I cannot possibly express how good the Texans defense is. It's even better than the Broncos." — Isaac (16:49)

Game 4: Rams @ Bears

• Bears are +4.5 underdogs but seen as a potential upset pick.
• Matthew Stafford’s poor cold-weather record brought up (1–9).
• Mixed picks; split between Bears and Rams.
  • "I'm loving the Bears here. I'm going Bears. I think not only they cover, I think they win the game." — Rich Davis (17:55)

Parlay Betting Angle

• Rich lays out a wild parlay: All four underdog moneyline bets would pay $4,700 on a $100 wager.
  • "Bills, Niners, Texans, Bears. $100 bet pays $4,700." — Rich Davis (20:55)

2. Brainwave: The “Newlywed”-Style Game

[28:53–37:23]

How It Works

• Listeners call in and try to match the C&R crew’s multiple-choice answers on subjective sports and entertainment questions.
• Panelists write their answers privately; caller wins prizes by matching the consensus at least twice.

Notable Moments

• Sports Q: “Most likely to be traded: Lamar Jackson, Max Crosby, or A.J. Brown?”
  All but Isaac agree on A.J. Brown.

• Entertainment Q: “Worst actor: Steven Seagal, Megan Fox, Vin Diesel?”
  All but Rich pick Seagal. Rich roast: “Vin Diesel, worst actor. Anyone ever watch a movie saying, look at that guy.” (34:33)

• Lifestyle Q: “Which of these car brands most represents luxury: BMW, Range Rover, Mercedes-Benz?”
  Mixed debate—LA panelists see Benz as common, Range Rover is for “luxury villains.”

Panel Banter

• Lots of playful ribbing and pop culture references:
  "If you grew up on the east coast, he'd probably be the coolest guy. But if he wasn't your pal, you'd look at him, be like, who is this guy?" — Rich Davis on Nick Sirianni (32:23)

[Rich Davis]

Can't wait for this weekend. A football. Gonna take my kids to the park Saturday morning, do a little batting practice, go get a breakfast burrito, settle in for the day. And besides that, that's my plan. My wife's like, what are we doing this weekend? I'm like, whatever is on the agenda. Like, I hope there's not a lot. Please, just. All I want to do is go to the park with my kids, go get a breakfast burrito and coffee, and then for the next 48 hours after that, Saturday, Sunday, just sit.

[Steve Covino]

Burrito, huh?

[Rich Davis]

Know what I want to do after the show today?

[Steve Covino]

What?

[Rich Davis]

I'm going to sit in this. I'm going to go to the gym, do a good workout, sit in the sauna and manifest in my mind Sam Darnold interceptions.

[Steve Covino]

I already hit the gym today.

[Rich Davis]

I already did all that.

[Steve Covino]

That's why today's so glorious.

[Rich Davis]

I'm going to sweat out Sam Darnold interceptions. That's what I'm going to do.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I can't wait.

[Steve Covino]

I'm going to be lamping and lime in the rest of the night.

[Rich Davis]

Sam Darnold, I'm calling it right now. Two picks and he's going to throw for under 200 yards.

[Steve Covino]

Save it for your pick, Save it for parlay picks. We do it in moments. We're going to give you our parlay picks, but we also got you involved last week and we said if you went six and oh, we're going to give you a prize.

[Danny G]

Yeah. If you were six for six with your parlay.

[Rich Davis]

Six for six, that's not easy by the way.

[Danny G]

No.

[Steve Covino]

And Danny G, believe it or not, we got some winners. Right?

[Danny G]

Yeah. Covino and I, we thought we were doing good going into Monday at 4 and 1. These listeners hit all 6.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. A couple of us went 4 and 2.

[Danny G]

Yep.

[Rich Davis]

A couple of us went 3 and 3, which is actually, you know, not bad. Going 6 and oh is not easy. Last week was, I think none of us were perfect after the second game because it just, it was such a great divisional weekend of wild card football.

[Danny G]

And we only mentioned this a couple of times on last week's show that if you wanted to email, we would look through all the emails and give some prize packs away. And I don't want you guys to get big headed over there. But just from those two mentions, 250 emails is what I sorted through.

[Rich Davis]

We mentioned that like one time.

[Danny G]

Jason S. Went six for six. Congratulations.

[Rich Davis]

That's not bad, buddy boy.

[Danny G]

Paul H. Went six for six and Matt E. Went six or six.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Eber Floose.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Can I tell you, we are in a 4 for 4 parlay pool with some old friends from Sirius XM and when I tell you there's a couple hundred people in this pool, some weeks no one out of a couple hundred hit a four for four. So a six or six.

[Steve Covino]

So Jason H. Paul, Ian Mason all went six for six. Congrats. And how do they claim their I'm.

[Rich Davis]

Going to be football?

[Danny G]

I'm going to be reaching out to them to get their mailing info and then I'm going to send them a CNR prize pack.

[Rich Davis]

Nice.

[Danny G]

All right, you could get involved this week. If you go four for four, we will send you out a prize.

[Steve Covino]

Wow.

[Danny G]

So you need the email. It's crprises Gmail.com and you're going to use the DraftKings spreads. We are betting against the spread. So it is crprises gmail.com and this.

[Steve Covino]

Is what you're playing for, the Nerf football that we have right here. Here you go.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Look at this bad boy. Oh, yeah.

[Danny G]

So they just came in, by the way. So if you are one of our winners throughout the football season, don't worry. I am on top of it, I dig them.

[Steve Covino]

I like them a lot. These are sweet. So thank you guys for playing along and congrats again to Jason H. Jason S, Paul H. And matt e.crprizesmail.com you.

[Rich Davis]

Ready to do this or what?

[Danny G]

Let's go fire up that NFL Films music.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Let me tell you, four games. There's a pattern I'm going with and I'm just curious if anyone will pick out my pattern because feel like it's a winning formula. Let's start our weekend of divisional football tomorrow afternoon.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Are you ready for some football?

[Rich Davis]

You know, I'm ready for football. AFC battle. Some would argue this is like the game of the weekend. Bills, Broncos at Mile High. Broncos have won 13 of their last 14. They're at home. Sean Payton and Bo Nick seem to have figured this thing out quicker than we all imagined. Buffalo. As Kavino said, for a 12 and 5 team that won a close game last week, I feel like they're fighting for every win. It's a team that. That battles and they live and die on. On which Josh Allen's going to show up.

[Steve Covino]

That's really it. Yeah. Remember, they have Josh Allen, though. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Remember, there's a guy, I don't know.

[Steve Covino]

If you know, there's a guy that could take the game over.

[Rich Davis]

Have you heard of him? Josh Allen? You might have heard of him. Him and Haley Steinfeld, we said, who had a better week than them? She debuted her belly bump at the Goldman Globes.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, and by the way, how many times have we said, with the teams that are out, this is the clearest path for the Bills to go all the way. And you don't think Josh Allen knows that.

[Rich Davis]

And even though everyone's obsessed with what were you doing in 2016? You see that trend all over TikTok and Instagram.

[Steve Covino]

My 2016 story.

[Rich Davis]

Well, in 2016, that was just for the record. That was the year Peyton Manning won as a Bronco. That was the year LeBron came back against the Golden State Warriors. That was the year the Cubs finally won the World Series. And it was also the year that Haley Steinfeld was wearing a Broncos jersey. And this picture is floating around social media and Josh Allen's like, who cares? Like, we weren't together. But people are showing this picture everywhere that Haley Steinfeld apparently was like, go, Broncos. When she was, like, a younger woman. So what are you picking here? Can I go first?

[Danny G]

Do it.

[Rich Davis]

My brother's going to hate this. I'm sorry, Jimmy. My brother's a Broncos fan. He loved Elway as a kid. They ain't ready. I. I don't know. Something about the week off. I don't know. Denver is actually not invincible at home. They. They've lost it. They finally lost at home this year. I like Buffalo. I think Josh Allen's a man on a mission. I think Buffalo not only. Not only beats him, I. I'm going to be bold. I see everyone on social media and everyone on these TV shows, like 23, 20, 28, 25, 34, 31. No, I think the. I think the Broncos lose this game. I think Josh Allen 34, 17.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I think something big. Yeah, I think Josh Allen beats the Broncos. Not. Not even the Bills. Allen over the Broncos this week, and I agree with Rich. I think he nailed it. I think people counted them out. I heard Colin talking about it like, you know, he had the Jaguars, right? And it's like, oh, I forgot that they have Josh Allen. Well, guess what? Let's all remember this guy could take over the game at any time. He has a lot to play for. He's a baby on the way. He has a clear path to make it happen. Bam. The Bills win.

[Rich Davis]

All right, Danny G. And this Denver.

[Danny G]

Defense is impressive, but Josh Allen is a robot. Seems like no matter how hard he gets hit, he gets right back up.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, and by the way, Danny G. Remember Sean Payton earlier this week? He was all salty and testy with the reporter. I think because he's feeling the pressure of the Bills. And Josh Allen, what do you know about attacking downhill?

[Rich Davis]

What do you know about talking downhill?

[Danny G]

You know what?

[Steve Covino]

A little aggravated. It sounds like the pressure's on him.

[Danny G]

Which defense impressed me last weekend was Buffaloes. If they show up like that again in this game, it's going to be the Bills. I picked them on our in studio prediction sheet to go and win the Super Bowl. I'm staying with the Bills.

[Rich Davis]

All right, spotty boy. What's up, buddy boy?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, I think it's obvious. I think the Bills are going to dominate. Wow.

[Rich Davis]

Damn. All right, we're all going. And by the way, just for the record, I didn't bring up the point spread because it's. It's one and a half. Now, that could play a factor, but it's Denver by one and a half. I mean, if, you know they lose by one, it's. But still, it's not a big point spread, so keep that in mind, Iowa. Sam. I'm going to ride with the Bills.

[Steve Covino]

Until they can't ride no more.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, you know, five for five. Isaac Loincron. Bills or Broncos?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

That was excellent insightful analysis by y', all, but unfortunately, it's all irrelevant because it's going to be Denver. You, you. That all that stuff cannot be overcome by 68 sacks, which is 11 more than the next best Denver.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, you know what, Isaac? Bringing us back to reality a little bit.

[Danny G]

Josh Allen's going to be running for his life.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I didn't say that. I just think the pressure will be enough to tilt the game for Denver. You should know about being unable to protect a quarterback over there. Not that I should talk either, huh? Yeah.

[Danny G]

That was also the Chargers downfall.

[Steve Covino]

Right? So, all right, everybody had the Bills except for Isaac.

[Rich Davis]

Night Saturday night. I guess I'm buying food and I guess you guys are coming over.

[Steve Covino]

The spread I care about is the one you're having at your house.

[Rich Davis]

I was just telling Kavino that the charcuterie alone is like a hundred bucks when you buy all those meats and cheeses. All right. 49ers at Seahawks. No George Kittle. No Fred Warner. A A Sam Darnold with a little ouchie on the oblique. A little. A little. Third time's the charm for someone here because they. They split the series. Niners one, week one. Seahawks really shut down anything Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy went after in week 18.

[Steve Covino]

Sorry to interrupt you, Rich. It's not like they. Their defense outshine them. It's not like they outscored him by a lot.

[Rich Davis]

It was 13:3. Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

It was still relatively close game.

[Rich Davis]

And McCaffrey did Bumble and fumble. Remember, he tipped the ball at the one yard line. That could have been 1310. Not making excuses. I'm saying, like, it was just a game where Seattle found the way to really just dominate. So Niners are seven point underdogs. If it was seven and a half, I would feel even more confident. But you know where I'm going? I'm going 49ers. Who's going to. Who's with me? Who's against me?

[Steve Covino]

I'm going with my heart on this one. I want to see Rich happy as my co host and pal. I root for the no. Because I also root for the 49ers and I believe that Shanahan pulls out all of his bag of tricks here. 49ers. I'm going with the 49ers.

[Rich Davis]

Danny.

[Danny G]

Rich, I like the fact that a lot of your Niners have had big game experience, whereas the Seahawks, not so much. Sam Darnold has no playoff wins.

[Steve Covino]

Remember, we kept Saying all week, live by the sword, die by the sword. I mean, Sam Darnold, who knows what. He can either have the greatest game or the weakest game.

[Danny G]

I just feel like this game is going to be closer than seven. So I'm going to go with the Niners because of the points.

[Rich Davis]

Okay. Spotty.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. So the spread is seven. Seven.

[Danny G]

Tough one, huh?

[Steve Covino]

Rich, you know I love you, but I just. I feel like this. I feel like the Seahawks are going to pull ahead on this one.

[Rich Davis]

All right, Seahawks, Seahawks.

[Steve Covino]

I'm taking Seahawks.

[Rich Davis]

Iowa. Samm. I picked the Bills with my heart. I'm picking the Seahawks. I'm sorry, Rich. With my head, you're. Hey, I'm not mad at you. I think that the Seahawks win, but the Niners cover that seven.

[Danny G]

Oh, okay.

[Rich Davis]

Okay. So you're going the same way I am. Okay. So you guys see Hawks wins in a closer game over the seven. Yo, Lo and crown. What you thinking, buddy?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I do not know who's going to win, but I absolutely am taking the 49ers to cover.

[Rich Davis]

People like those points. I love those points. If it's seven and a half. So if you have the ability to Wherever you gamble, DraftKings are preference buy a half a point. Why would you not right.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

You could.

[Rich Davis]

You could wager and buy that half a point. Make it Niners plus seven and a half. Like then if they lose by a touchdown, you still win your bet. I love seven and a half. There it was seven and a half until yesterday. Now let's go to Sunday early game Texans at the Patriots. Patriots got your home field three points. I am going road dog style. I think The Texans win 11 in a row. I like Houston, I like their defense. I told you every time the ball was handed off last week. I know they played the Steelers, but they were hit behind a lot of scrimmage. That defense is solid and I think Jaden Daniels got whatever jitters out of his system because he looked like ass.

[Steve Covino]

CJ Stroud.

[Rich Davis]

Did I say cj? CJ Stroud. I'm sorry. He was CJ struggling. He was CJ Struggling for sure.

[Steve Covino]

So I agree with you there. I think he. He learned from those mistakes.

[Rich Davis]

So yeah, Tech Texans. I'm going Texans. I think Patriots a little inflated still. Even they're good. But I like the Texans here.

[Steve Covino]

Eleven in a row. You keep bringing up this roulette visual all week where eventually you got to bet on black. Like red, red, red, red, red, black's eventually going to come up. And I feel like we're going to the Texans defensive well, too much in the Patriots are too good. So I'm going Patriots on this one.

[Danny G]

Cove, I'm right there with you. Because Drake maybe led the Patriots this far, he's going to lead them even further. He'll pull the ball down and run it the way Aaron Rodgers could. Not against the Texans. For all of the categories where their defense is number one, you know where they're last in the league. Stopping a quarterback from running. So watch Drake. May. Use your legs. May. And the Patriots will win this game.

[Rich Davis]

Spotty.

[Steve Covino]

What's the spread again?

[Rich Davis]

Three. Home field advantage. Three for the Patriots.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I'm going to take the Pats on this one.

[Danny G]

Okay.

[Steve Covino]

Feeling strong.

[Rich Davis]

Sam Lo and Cron, my two last knucklehead pals. Patriots win and cover.

[Steve Covino]

Lowen cry.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I cannot possibly express how good the Texans defense is. It's even better than the Broncos defense. They have no weaknesses. They are equally strong at every level. Defensive line, linebackers and secondary. Texans all the way.

[Steve Covino]

Wow.

[Rich Davis]

And how likable and handsome is d'. Amico. Ryan's strong. What a guy. What a guy.

[Danny G]

All right, Nico Collins.

[Rich Davis]

Collins is out. That is big. That is big. That is a big offensive weapon. And Rams this point spread move. Isaac, is there an injury I'm unaware of? It was three and a half. Now it's Rams by four and a half.

[Danny G]

There was no Stafford sprained finger, right?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Oh, yeah. Oh, that's completely.

[Rich Davis]

The line moved in the direction. As if something may have happened in Chicago, but if not, that just means Vegas sentiment is that more people are betting on the. On the Rams.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

So only things that happened today. Romeo Dunes a questionable and right guard Kevin Dotson of the Rams will start. But that. That's it. That's not major, major stuff.

[Rich Davis]

And Ben Johnson had a bad burrito for lunch. So he has a bellyache, right?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

In Chicago.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. No, no.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Bad, bad brick oven pizza. All right.

[Danny G]

Please call it a tummy ache.

[Rich Davis]

Rich. Bears four and a half point underdogs. I'm loving the Bears here. I'm going Bears. I think not only they cover, I think they win the game.

[Steve Covino]

I'm going Rams on this because we only see the greatness from the Bears when they're playing from behind. How many times could they come back? What is it? 7? 7 come from behind wins recently. How many times are you going to go to that? Well, like they haven't been able to dominate. They just come up with these big miraculous plays and I get it.

[Rich Davis]

Keep going to this. Well, see if you see that Baby Jessica girl from the 80s in there?

[Steve Covino]

No, but I'm saying, like, eventually I got that. Eventually the sands are going to give. Right? So.

[Rich Davis]

Well, the Goonies down there. What do you love, Wells?

[Steve Covino]

I would love to see Caleb Williams do it again. He has this magic touch about him. But these are the Rams. I'm going Rams.

[Rich Davis]

Rams by four and a half.

[Steve Covino]

Are they not hating on the Bears? I'll give them a slow clap if they pull it off again.

[Danny G]

This is a meme from Caesar's sportsbook, so it's got to be true. Matthew Stafford's record when the temperature is 40 degrees or lower. One in nine.

[Steve Covino]

Wow.

[Danny G]

Yeah. I'm going Chicago. I just feel like it's a special season for them and they will find a way to get it down.

[Steve Covino]

Seems to be. But it's always from behind. Always from behind.

[Rich Davis]

I thought that's how you like it. Spot what?

[Steve Covino]

Don't.

[Rich Davis]

Don't include me in that to.

[Steve Covino]

I'm going to take the Rams on this one.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Rams.

[Rich Davis]

All righty. Yeah, I was. Sammy boy. I got to go with the Bears here because I've been wanting to say Bears, Bills, Battlestar galactica, Super Bowl 60.

[Steve Covino]

Bears. Bills is such a marquee. Bears, Bills, Bears.

[Danny G]

Go.

[Rich Davis]

Give me the Bears. Great rationale.

[Danny G]

Wait till Stu got Stu. Got to meet you on Monday.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, yeah. Let's say hi to the best guy in the biz, Isaac Lohenkron.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I'm actually going Rams because of what they almost did at Philadelphia last year and somebody they have now who they didn't have last year. Devonte Adams. And one additional note, baby Jessica, now 39 years old.

[Steve Covino]

Wow.

[Danny G]

Shut up.

[Rich Davis]

Wow.

[Steve Covino]

It's me, Jessica. Wow.

[Rich Davis]

That's amazing. All right, so we made our picks. And by the way, I think. I don't think anyone has the same four.

[Steve Covino]

Wow.

[Danny G]

Nice. And you can email your four picks into us crprizesmail.com that crprizesmail.com it's against the spread, so go to DraftKingsportsbook. DraftKings against the spread.

[Steve Covino]

This bad boy right here, you can see it at Covino Nurse. Fsr. This Nerf football, black and white, CNR and FSR Turbo Grip Doozy. So good luck and enjoy the games, man. They're going to be great. I like these matchups so much. Last week was great. I keep saying it. Last week was great. These matchups are even better. I'm expecting some really great games.

[Rich Davis]

Why don't you marry him? So four games. I just want to point this out. I did talk about this on our bonus podcast over Promise. So maybe a little advice. Check out our bonus pod once in a while. It's pretty awesome. It's a lot of fun uncensored. We go a little off the rails.

[Steve Covino]

And it's right here on this YouTube feed.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, I talked about how, if you've noticed, I said there was a trend, I picked all the underdogs, right? I have the Bills, Niners, Texans, Bears. If you do that in a money line, I do like the points, right? I do like the Niners getting seven. I do like the Bears getting four and a half. But if you go Moneyline, get this, because this is information you might want to know if you go Moneyline, meaning no point spread, just winning. Bills, Niners, Texans, Bears. A hundred dollar bet pays $4,700. I think that, I just think that's a really great value because, I mean, the Niners would be your biggest long shot, but that's not shocking to me if they found a way to beat Seattle. But Bills, Niners, Texans, bears, all four dogs. Moneyline 100, pace 4700. So, hey, give that a thought and when we come back, we're going to play a game that I have so much fun with you guys.

[Steve Covino]

Again, another chance to win a prize.

[Rich Davis]

Brainwave. Danny has come up with some really fun questions in the world of sports and entertainment.

[Steve Covino]

It's also a very visual game too, right? It's sort of like a newlywed thing where we're giving up our answers and you could watch it live. Covino and rich fsr. So sign in now on YouTube. Covino and rich fsr. And if you want to play, it's multiple choice. All you have to do is be on the same brainwave as us.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, so we'll play Brainwave and we'll do some weekend hobnob. And what to watch not only in the world of the NFL and sports, but also entertainment. Maybe some streaming shows you might be missing. So all next right here.

[Steve Covino]

Covino and Rich, have you ever wiped with a piece of dry single ply toilet paper and wondered, is this as good as it gets? Well, it's not. Gets a lot better thanks to wet Extra large cleaning power of Dude Wipes.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, Dude Wipes. And when we say extra large, we mean business. No matter what the size of your mess. I thought I was gonna say whatever the size of your bottom, Dude Wipes has you covered for a confident clean. They comfortably clean whatever.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Tp.

[Rich Davis]

Ha ha. TP for your bunghole. Leaves behind debris. No way Irri. Not a chance. It's time to make the trade of the season and switch from old school toilet paper to wet extra large. Dude wipes.

[Steve Covino]

Oh yeah. Made from 100% plant based natural fibers. Coming in a variety of scents. Hey Rish, how do you like the mint chill and the Shay Shay butter to protect your end zone. Join the movement for cleaner movements and live a skid free life.

[Rich Davis]

On June 11, 1998, a deputy from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department went missing.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

It's an all out manhunt for John Ajay.

[Rich Davis]

Every search and rescue team in LA county has been called in to help. Within days, tips started flooding into the sheriff's department. They ruler around the drug scene. Was that a deputy was taken care of. Is this the story of a man who just got lost in the desert? Or of a cover up inside the nation's largest sheriff's department? A homicide captain saying, detective, do not find out if this guy's guilty or innocent. Who does that? Valley of Shadows, a new series from Pushkin Industries about crime and corruption in California's high desert. Do you have any advice for us while looking into this disappearance?

[Steve Covino]

I wouldn't do it alone.

[Rich Davis]

Listen to Valley of shadows on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Danny G]

Each episode explores a different chapter of Atlanta's rise. Featuring conversations with Ludacris, Will Packer, Pastor Jamal Bryant, DJ Drama and more. The full series is available to listen to now.

[Rich Davis]

I really just had never experienced anything.

[Danny G]

Like what was going on in the.

[Steve Covino]

City as far as like, you know.

[Danny G]

Seeing so many young, black, affluent creatives.

[Rich Davis]

In all walks of life. The church had dwindled almost to nothing and God said, this is your assignment. And that's like how you know, like, okay.

[Danny G]

Oh, you from Atlanta for real? I ain't gotta say too much.

[Rich Davis]

Alright, and two teams left in college football and Kerry Rhodes here at Fox Sports Radio. He's the only guy that's. He only got one wrong, but there's a couple listeners still involved in the winner's gonna get a thousand dollars. And you could play [e-mail] to check out the leaderboard, but we're gonna play a game in a second. But I gotta say what's up to my dude Jason, who I coach with, and Benjamin, who's listening in the car with him.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, guys, what's up?

[Rich Davis]

Benji? He's got a stroke like Cody Bellinger.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, the Yankees don't get Cody, we'll get Benjamin. Mets Mike, let's do it.

[Rich Davis]

Let's see what happens.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, no, Sorry. This just in. The Dodgers signed Jesus and Benjamin.

[Rich Davis]

It's. I'm telling you, I'm. I'm looking at it as a challenge for everyone else in Major League Baseball.

[Steve Covino]

That's what I said.

[Rich Davis]

Don't be crybabies.

[Steve Covino]

That's my point.

[Rich Davis]

Beat the Dodgers. That's what you gotta do. All right, let's do this. Brainwave.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Do Cavino and Rich really share the same brain?

[Rich Davis]

Doris Day, Red, Shannon, Johnny Reed, number six.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Is their crew not far behind.

[Rich Davis]

We're one. Welcome to Brainwave. Try to make sense of the brain.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

It's easy. We drop fun sports, music and entertainment questions. And if you match with enough of.

[Rich Davis]

These bosoms, you win. I love that. On the count of three, reveal Brainwave. Two. Three.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Guys are on the same wavelength right now.

[Steve Covino]

All right.

[Danny G]

Happy Friday. The questions in this game are all subjective. You just need to try and match the brain of CNR and the crew. We're going to get our contestant from the studio lines right now. And then I'm going to explain the game further. All right. It is Paul. The first one through in North Carolina.

[Rich Davis]

Yo, what's up, Paul? Hey, Paul.

[Steve Covino]

Is it Paul or Paul?

[Danny G]

It is Paul. No, Paul. What do you do for a living? What do you do for a living in North Cackalacka? I am a general manager of a restaurant. Oh, very cool. Alright, here we go. I have five rounds ready to go. Our contestant has to win two of the rounds to be the champ and walk away with one of those nice CR Nerf turbo footballs. I'm gonna ask a question, then give three debatable answers to choose from. The six of us in studio are gonna write down our answers on these dry erase boards for our YouTube channel. And then on the count of three, Paul, you're gonna shout out your answer. You have to match with four of us to win the round, or no matter the caller's answer, if all six of us happen to match in studio, it's an automatic point for the contestant. Guys ready?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I'm ready. Let's do this. Let's go.

[Danny G]

All right, so get your dry erase boards ready to go. Category one. Let's start with sports. Which of these players is most likely to be traded this off season? Lamar Jackson, Max Crosby, or A.J. brown? Think about it.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, it's a good question because. Oh, wait a minute.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Very good question. Complex, complex issues.

[Danny G]

Okay, let me know when you guys are all locked in.

[Rich Davis]

I'm locked in.

[Steve Covino]

Locked in.

[Rich Davis]

I'm already dreaming about buying my son a Boba Shet jersey.

[Danny G]

Paul, on the count of three, we need your answer. One, two, three.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

A.J.

[Danny G]

Brown says A.J. brown. We're going to start with Covina.

[Steve Covino]

Process of elimination. Max Crosby's not going anywhere. And the Ravens got rid of Harbaugh. Not getting rid of Jackson. A.J. brown's the answer, bro. All right, A.J.

[Rich Davis]

Brown, Max Crosby not happy with the Raiders. He's on a trampoline with his kids saying, I could play. Meanwhile, the team shut him down, but I think there's hope that the Raiders could turn around so he. I think he's going to end up staying. Lamar's not going anywhere. And AJ Brown management's already saying, like, we're moving this dude. AJ Brown's your answer.

[Danny G]

All right, I love for two.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Two words. Contractual availability. AJ Brown.

[Rich Davis]

There you go. Bam.

[Danny G]

Spotty.

[Steve Covino]

Spotty here, playing for mat199 on the YouTube chat. What up, Matt? Also said A.J.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Brown.

[Danny G]

Yeah, man.

[Rich Davis]

All right, he's clinched the point.

[Danny G]

I also said A.J. brown.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Wow.

[Rich Davis]

And let's go a good one.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Two.

[Rich Davis]

How many people do we have on this?

[Steve Covino]

Six. Six. Let's go. Six through six. A.J.

[Rich Davis]

Brown.

[Danny G]

Come on.

[Rich Davis]

That's obvious.

[Danny G]

Paul, what a good start. You would have got the point either way. Congrats on getting that first round. Need one more to win. All right, round two. Let's go to Entertainment.

[Rich Davis]

I don't blame him, by the way, looking at Nick Sirianni's face every day, I'd want out of there, too. By the way, Nick Sirianni, if you grew up on the east coast, he's the type of guy that, if you were his pal, he'd probably be the coolest guy. But if he wasn't your pal, you'd look at him, be like, who is this guy?

[Steve Covino]

If you grew up on east coast, you say Siri.

[Rich Davis]

Siri. Siri. All right, let's go next one.

[Danny G]

All right, entertainment category here. Which of these three is the worst actor?

[Steve Covino]

Oh. Oh.

[Danny G]

All right.

[Steve Covino]

Is Rich Davis? Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Is he on there? He's good one.

[Danny G]

Steven Seagal.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, God.

[Danny G]

Megan Fox or Vin Diesel?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, man, this is a tough one.

[Danny G]

Yeah. On a lot of the lists online. These three are back to back to back on the lists. Steven Seagal, Megan Fox or Vin Diesel.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

All right.

[Steve Covino]

I'm ready.

[Rich Davis]

I think I got my answer.

[Danny G]

Everybody locked in?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

All right, Paul, need your answer on the count of three. One, two, three. Steven Seagal says Seagal. We're going to go in reverse order this time, Iowa. Samuel, what say you?

[Rich Davis]

I want to take you to the bank, Senator Trevor to the blood bank. Steven Seagal.

[Steve Covino]

If you couldn't tell, man, I mean.

[Rich Davis]

He was in some good movies, but his movies now, not so great. Let's move along.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Richard's appendix loves Steven Seagal.

[Danny G]

It's like Seagal doesn't even try.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, Jesus.

[Danny G]

I also put Steven Seagal. All right, Spotty.

[Steve Covino]

All right, Matt.

[Danny G]

Agreed.

[Rich Davis]

Not only is he a horrible actor, but horrible runner. Steven Seagal.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

I low looks like during this segment, this actor has been under siege. Steven Seagal.

[Danny G]

He's a winner. He's already a winner. He's already a winner. What'd you say, Rich?

[Rich Davis]

Hold on. Mark for death.

[Danny G]

Oh, no.

[Rich Davis]

Apart to kill above the law. Under siege. Steven Seagal was such a part of our childhood. I'm ashamed of all of you. I love Steven Seagal. Remember, he was in a coma for seven years and came out of it and beat up all the bad guys in Hard to kill.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Yeah. He watched one of his own movies.

[Rich Davis]

Megan Fox is too hot to ever insult.

[Steve Covino]

Right.

[Rich Davis]

And Vin Diesel's just a big meathead. Vin Diesel, worst actor. Anyone ever watch a movie saying, look at that guy.

[Danny G]

Does it matter what she looks like if she can't act at all?

[Rich Davis]

Vin Diesel was decent in Ryan. Same Private and Boiler Room. He's got some acting chops.

[Nav Green]

Some.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

And I was gonna say that Steven Seagal was at least good on that super bowl commercial where he was balancing between two trucks, but I just remembered that was not Seagal. That was Jean Claude Van Damme.

[Danny G]

What did you say?

[Steve Covino]

Steven Seagal, definitely.

[Danny G]

So Rich is the odd man.

[Rich Davis]

I love Steven Seagal.

[Danny G]

Paul In North Carolina. Congratulations. We are going to mail out one of these turbo footballs to you. Winner, winner.

[Steve Covino]

Congrats, buddy.

[Rich Davis]

One more round for fun. Danny clinched. He clinched.

[Danny G]

Let's do it.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

You want to play for some koozies?

[Danny G]

Yeah, we could throw extra koozie.

[Rich Davis]

A little ball in there.

[Danny G]

You guys want to do. You want to do a lifestyle category or go back to sports?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Let's do lifestyle. Lifestyle.

[Danny G]

Okay.

[Rich Davis]

All the winner wants sports. Are you gonna listen to Paul, the winner? I don't listen to anyone. My wife, the other. My wife the other day gave me a big speech on how I need to listen better, so maybe I should. Good.

[Steve Covino]

It's just so salty.

[Danny G]

We do have to do self evaluations for the company right now.

[Rich Davis]

I did. I gave myself all tens of the best. I'm the best there is. I'm a perfect listener. All right, let's.

[Danny G]

All right, here we go. Which. Which of these car brands most represents luxury? Oh, BMW, Range Rover or Mercedes Benz?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, right now?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Yeah, now.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, that's tough.

[Danny G]

Yep.

[Rich Davis]

I think there's an obvious answer.

[Danny G]

Do you?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

All right, we're all gonna lock our answers in.

[Steve Covino]

I know what it's not. I'm locked in.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

All right. Locked.

[Danny G]

We're gonna be good.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Paul.

[Rich Davis]

Paul, what do you got?

[Steve Covino]

Paul for a koozie? CNR3.

[Danny G]

So I'm a University of Georgia alumni and we play a lot in the Mercedes Benz stadium, so might as well go with Mercedes Benz.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Danny G]

He says Mercedes Covino.

[Steve Covino]

Out here in la, you see Benz is everywhere. And mostly women driving them, right? BMWs.

[Rich Davis]

That's anecdotal. That's anecdotal.

[Steve Covino]

Steve, I got one. Hold on. When you see luxury and lavish people, it's always Range Rover. All right.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Danny G]

Rich Davis.

[Rich Davis]

I'll tell you. It was. This was. This was tough, but I thought the obvious answer was Mercedes. I. I think I drive a BMW. And they're not that expensive.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Humble bragging. Yeah.

[Nav Green]

Oh, no.

[Rich Davis]

Like Range Rover, I feel like are pricey. And it's like a lot of hot moms in LA drive Range Rovers. Kavino's right.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, Pricey.

[Rich Davis]

But Mercedes, though, I feel like maybe.

[Steve Covino]

You get an entry level Mercedes. Range Rover is always expensive.

[Rich Davis]

You need Range Rover for the foothills. You got to get up into your, you know, up there in the hills.

[Danny G]

This is hard for Ilo. I know's a Ford man. He's got a pimped out, primered Pinto in the parking garage. What'd you say?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Well, actually, this is a true story. I'LL make this quick. But back in the day, I was conned into going to one of these fancy Hollywood clubs. Sky bar. And the valet line is Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Lamborghini. And there I am in like a 99 Toyota Corolla. I get out of the car and I start singing. They see me rolling in my Corolla. Nobody got it. But anyway, I digress. I'm going to go by the villain rule. Who's driving these cool cars as villains in movies? Range Rovers. They're the new Mercedes and BMW.

[Rich Davis]

Villains do drive Range Rovers.

[Danny G]

Matty went with Mercedes. It's no Porsche, but Mercedes.

[Rich Davis]

And shout out to actress Mercedes roll. There you go.

[Danny G]

Well, I ended his run. I also said Range Rover. Well, and for fun. What'd you say, Sam?

[Steve Covino]

I did say Mercedes.

[Danny G]

Pardon me. Choose one.

[Steve Covino]

Short.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Short.

[Danny G]

Paul, you got the football. Congratulations, man. Happy Friday.

[Steve Covino]

Great questions. Hey, thank you guys. Yeah, enjoy the game.

[Rich Davis]

Spa.

[Steve Covino]

We appreciate you.

[Danny G]

Yeah, we got a Bills fan. Thank you, guys.

[Rich Davis]

Well, yo, let's go Mets.

[Danny G]

Bills and Mets. And he's in North Carolina. He's all over the place.

[Rich Davis]

Probably New Yorker that moved down there because New York is cold and expensive.

[Steve Covino]

By the way, did you hear Rich say in the middle of the game he's going to buy his son a Boba Shet jersey? Like. Like his son doesn't want a Kyle Tucker jersey. Give me a break.

[Rich Davis]

No, my son's. I think my son's back. You know he's not. We're gonna be the Mets for West Hills baseball.

[Steve Covino]

I think it's cute that you think.

[Rich Davis]

He cares about his little league because his ponyball team is Mets. I think I'm pulling my son back. All right, let's go to ILO for an update. And ilo, do you mind if I tell you about a possible signing?

[Isaac Lohenkron]

No, go ahead. Your name's on the show.

[Rich Davis]

A guy that no one wants. Former Dodger and met. Apparently the White Sox might go after Michael Conforto. The White Sox? That's it's gotten that bad that the white so might be like. Yeah, I guess we'll take him stealing the Dodgers thunder.

[Steve Covino]

Nice stroke though, man.

[Rich Davis]

He did. Conforto had a good swing. He couldn't put it together, but yeah, he might be a white sock.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

They're saying in much less important major league baseball news.

[Rich Davis]

Michael Conforto.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Sorry, Michael.

[Rich Davis]

I say call him Confardo. That guy stinks.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

Well, they might be working on that chant on the south side soon anyway. Rich's New York mets. Indeed. Signing two time All Star infielder Bo Bichette to a three year, $126 million deal. Phillies re signing three time All Star catcher J. Real Muto three years 45 million in the NFL, the Buffalo Bills activated defensive tackle Ed Oliver from injured reserve for tomorrow's game at Denver. Patriots Pro bowl cornerback Christian Gonzalez cleared concussion protocol. He will play Sunday against Houston. The Texans, meanwhile, ruled out receivers Nico Collins and Justin Watson due to concussions. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers interviewed former Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel for their head coaching job. Finally, Covino and Rich. We have a college basketball pizza update. Now, typically college basketball teams have a post game meal of things like pizza, wings, etc. Delivered to their locker room. Well, after last night's home win over Villanova, UConn women's head coach Gino Oriemma was not pleased with the quality of the post game pizza.

[Danny G]

Listen, poured some red stuff on the box and called it pizza. Don't believe those signs when you come into Connecticut, pizza capital of the world.

True.

[Danny G]

It's bull. We're going to get better pizza. Promise you I'll bring some for you guys to taste it. The good stuff. When we get the good stuff, not the crap. They're passing off his pizza now. Ah, no, no. Being Italian, no, sorry. Doesn't live up to the standards of Yukon or the state of Connecticut. The pizza sucks. Every question you ask, I'm going to say the pizza sucks.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

For their reaction and analysis, here are Connecticut pizza insiders, Covino and Rich.

[Rich Davis]

Guys, let me tell you, he's right. I thought Connecticut was known for its good. Connecticut. No, he's. That's what he's saying.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Connecticut, the tri state area, New York, New Jersey. The pizza is just out of this world. Better than anywhere else in the country. He got some bad stuff.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, he's not lying.

Listen to how to Money on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts. On June 11, 1998, a deputy from the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department went missing.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

It's an all out manhunt for John Audrey.

[Rich Davis]

Every search and rescue team in LA county has been called in to help. Within days, tips started flooding into the Sheriff's Department. The rumor around the drug scene was that a deputy was taken care of. Is this the story of a man who just got lost in the desert? Or of a cover up inside the nation's largest sheriff's department? A homicide captain saying, detective, do not find out if this guy's guilty or innocent. Who does that? Valley of Shadows A new series from Pushkin Industries about crime and corruption in California's high desert. Do you have any advice for us while looking into this disappearance?

[Steve Covino]

Where did Bo Nicks at?

[Danny G]

He ain't too far behind.

[Rich Davis]

He did all this. This talking.

[Danny G]

What Matthew Stafford is doing statistically, bro, is crazy.

[Nav Green]

Bro, you know I ain't no Josh Allen fan, but Matthew Stafford got better weapon. Caleb Williams.

From the underground clubs that shaped global music to the pastors and creatives who built a cultural empire, the Atlanta Is podcast uncovers the stories behind one of the most influential cities in the world.

[Rich Davis]

[Danny G]

Each episode explores a different chapter of Atlanta's rise, featuring conversations with Ludacris, Will Packer, Pastor Jamal Bryant, DJ drama, and more. The full series is available to listen. Listen to now.

[Steve Covino]

I really just had never experienced anything.

Like what was going on in the.

[Steve Covino]

City as far as, like, you know.

[Danny G]

Seeing so many young, black, affluent creatives.

[Rich Davis]

In all walks of life. The church had dwindled almost to nothing. And God said, this is your assignment. And that's like how you know, like, okay.

[Steve Covino]

Is it Bald Wemby?

[Danny G]

That's my belly.

[Rich Davis]

I'd like to say after tomorrow, it's Brock Purse, but we're not there yet. I like to say Boba Shet because he's on my Mets, but it's got to be Kyle Tucker. Guy gets 60. $60 million a year.

[Steve Covino]

Kyle Tucker had three more home runs and one more RBI than Volpe, who's making 3.4 million this year. I mean, you're able to squeeze 60 million out of the Dodgers and play for a winner. Good for you. You're the pro.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, I'm not saying I thought it was gonna be half of that, but I thought Tucker was in the 40 to 50 million dollars range.

[Steve Covino]

20 million more than Judge. You can tell me that guy's that much better. You didn't tell me he's anywhere near Judge.

[Rich Davis]

No, sorry, he's not.

[Steve Covino]

But 60 million a year?

[Rich Davis]

He's the coolest guy on the planet. Let's get into it. Weekend Hobnobbin. Living for the weekend.

[Steve Covino]

All right, I'll kick it off. I'll make it it snappy. It's friendship reunited in an action movie. The Rip on Netflix with Ben Asflex and Matt Damon.

[Danny G]

Bro.

[Rich Davis]

What did you call him? Ben what?

[Steve Covino]

Affleck. Oh, yeah. So they're back together. Why not check it out on Netflix.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

The Rip. The Rip.

[Steve Covino]

And I gotta finish King of Collectibles with Ken Golden. I love that weirdo. I love that show. If you like collectibles, you may have slept on or missed season three. I think it came out during the holidays. Around the holidays. Season three is out. If you like memorabilia, collectibles, Ken Golden's doing his thing that's on Netflix as well. So I got to finish that probably this weekend. And aside from all the football we've been talking about over promised, our bonus pod is available on our YouTube page right here. Covino and Rich FSR brand new episode dropped yesterday. It's our bonus show. Things that we can't fit on this show. We talked about Chapel Gangers.

[Rich Davis]

Really, bro?

[Danny G]

Wow. It's like seven bros like the bro.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

What's that?

[Steve Covino]

I want to give it away. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Spots, bro. I've watched five of the six episodes and, like, I'm anxious to watch the sixth one tonight when the kids go to bed.

[Danny G]

It's really good.

[Rich Davis]

You like Bernthal, right?

[Steve Covino]

I like Bernthal.

[Rich Davis]

You don't like Bernthal. Did we watch Love is Blind Germany? I feel like I need a trash show and people like, check it out. Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Why would I watch that? I don't know.

[Rich Davis]

You watch the stuff all the time. Yeah, Ze Germans. Yo, our buddy Rob hit us up. He goes, if you're watching the Rams game this weekend, which we all are, did you see this wild Sean McVeigh fun fact that he has played 50. He has coached 15 postseason games, and they're all against different teams.

[Danny G]

I did see that.

[Rich Davis]

How is that possible?

[Steve Covino]

That is insane.

[Rich Davis]

That's wild. Of course, a lot of NFL this weekend. Anything else you guys are checking out or what?

[Danny G]

Yeah, there's a prequel to the Game of Thrones.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, yeah?

[Danny G]

Yeah. If you're a Game of Thrones fan. A Night of the Seven Kingdoms is premiering January 18, a Sunday on HBO. That should be cool. And of course, I'm looking forward to not only the NFL playoff games, but how about the national championship game in Miami coming up on Monday? Can't wait to get to that.

[Isaac Lohenkron]

That's.

[Rich Davis]

You know what, Fernando? Add that to the list of stuff you gotta watch. What's this show on HBO that I see trending about, like, gay hockey players?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, heated rivalry.

[Rich Davis]

Are you kidding? The buzz of social media, like this is, like, controversial. So, hey, if you want to watch that, that's on hbo, Max, when I'm.

[Steve Covino]

Alone at home Saturday nights.

[Rich Davis]

All right, well, enjoy your weekend. So much football, so much fun. Love hanging with you guys. A true pleasure. And we'll see you back here on Monday.

[Steve Covino]
