The hosts and a lively cast of callers dig into pop culture’s best-loved canine characters and their personal pet stories, while also touching on the emotional bonds formed with our four-legged friends. Later, the conversation pivots to Major League Baseball, with special attention to the Colorado Rockies’ quest to reach a .500 record.

[Steve Covino]

All right, welcome back to the Showgram program, Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. And by the way, this just in word on the streets. We're filling in for Dan Patrick, another hat Trick Dan Patrick Hatrick next week, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. So just make a mental note to join us early in the morning.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, and know who hit me up. Our good pal Coach Ball game. Oh, is going to hang with us one of those days.

[Steve Covino]

So nice. Attaboy, attaboy, attaboy. Covino and Rich bringing the fun on DP next week. But happy to be here. Broadcasting live from the FOX Sports radio studio Thursday, throwing it back. Thursday's the new Friday, so weekend begins. Danny G's here, Sam Loinchron. Thank you, FOX Sports Radio Nation.

[Rich Davis]

Now, if your afternoon needs a boost, let me tell you about these new Starbucks energy refreshers.

[Steve Covino]

Tell me about it.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, I'm the guy to tell you because I'm the guy that has, you know, vanilla sweet cream, cold brew every day. And I'm like, you know what, I don't want to have a ton of coffee, but these things have caffeine. The Starbucks refreshers you love now with an added boost of caffeine to power your afternoon, get your favorite flavors. They got mango, strawberry. That's my new favorite one, Mango dream.

[Steve Covino]

Speaking of Dan Patrick, I heard him talking about him and he's right. You think that they're going to be like overly sugar sugary because of how they look? They're not. They're really, really good.

[Rich Davis]

So, hey, get the new energy refreshers at Starbucks now a little afternoon pick me up. Order one on the Starbucks app, which I know you have on your phone.

[Steve Covino]

I do. And by the way, you could watch us live right now at COVINO and RICH FSR. So watch what you hear on YouTube. COVINO, ENRICH FSR. And if you can guess what we brought in for show and tell today or you have a good comment about it, if Danny G basically calls your name because he says something that stands out, we will give you a prize, a CNR prize pack. But every Thursday we throw it back. We reminisce. We bring in some show and tell items as well. So again, if you can guess what it is, we will hook you up and we will reveal at the end of the show.

[Danny G]

Like last week, Rich brought a headshot of Dane Cook.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, it was me.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. Because he forgot a real item. So he just went to his trunk,

[Rich Davis]

looked, it was in my car.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, and by the way, whatever, we don't have time for today because we spent a lot, a lot of time talking about weenies and hot dogs. We're going to do on over promised our bonus pod, brand new episode 135 premieres today right here on the YouTube page right after the show.

[Rich Davis]

I can tell you, I can tell you one thing we're going to talk about because we're not going to get to it today.

[Caller/Listener]

Go ahead.

[Rich Davis]

The evolution of the butt, the booty. Well, based on the fan that mooned everyone the other day. Yeah. We got to dissect. When did we go from a boob culture to a butt culture? And is it Shakira? Is it JLo? Is it sir Mix a lot? Is it? Who is, who do you give credit to?

[Steve Covino]

Well, talk about the evolution of the booty rage on over Promise.

[Rich Davis]

It's probably safer to talk about on our uncensored podcast.

[Steve Covino]

Good point. Episode 135 right after this show right here on YouTube at Covinoenrich FSR. Now, speaking of dogs, a lot of dog talk today. Hot dogs to actual dogs. There's a pill. Danny G. Do you have more insight on this pill? They're saying that they're waiting for FDA approval, but sometime this year, they're saying it's a pill that could keep your dog healthier, making him last longer.

[Danny G]

Yeah. By late 2026, they say the FDA is supposed to approve this and this beef flavored pill from the biotech firm Loyal in San Francis. They say you give it to your dog once a day if your dog is over 10 years old and weighs over 14 pounds and it can add one to four years of healthy life to your dog's lifespan.

[Rich Davis]

So essentially a dog that is in the, you know, second half of life or, you know, third quarter, essentially, you could elongate the end of their life. And I'll tell you what, we lost our dog in December and it's miserable. I, I was just talking to our friends that are in the studio saying I, I'm reluctant to get a new dog because to me, getting a dog, what comedian does that bit?

[Steve Covino]

Louis C.K.

[Rich Davis]

louis C.K.

[Steve Covino]

i think. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Who I love does a bit where he's like, yeah, you get a dog, you're just really signing up for heartache in like a decade.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, here's some heartache. 14 years from now, I can't take it.

[Rich Davis]

Like, you know, my family lost our, our French bulldog, Piper, and my wife's like, should we get a new dog this year? And I'm like, no, I don't want a dog.

[Steve Covino]

Everything feels so empty. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

But my kids and wife will probably pressure me and I'd imagine within a year, maybe we go back to that. But for me, I don't need the heartache. But I know everyone's a dog lover. People love their pets more than kids sometimes.

[Steve Covino]

And if there's a beef flavored vitamin that keeps them healthier and makes them last longer, this is big news. But that's what I was saying before. I didn't want to. It's a real story, but I don't

[Rich Davis]

want to start taking these.

[Danny G]

I'm your dog, and it's a. It's a real.

[Steve Covino]

I don't want to give false hope to dog owners.

[Danny G]

It's a real thing. It's just not approved by the FDA yet.

[Steve Covino]

Right. So that's really cool. But based on this big news, we figured we'd talk some of the greatest dogs of our lifetime.

[Rich Davis]

Can I give a shout out to not a dog I love, but a dog that. I feel like our parents were obsessed with saying it. I guarantee you can read my mind anytime there's a scary dog. What did your mom or dad say?

[Steve Covino]

Cujo.

[Rich Davis]

Cujo. What was with our parents fascination with.

[Steve Covino]

Did you ever see it? Scary movie. Scared the hell out of me.

[Rich Davis]

But I just feel like if you're like 40ish and your parents are boomers, I feel like I don't know any scary dog reference your parents would be like, oh, of course, they also had

[Danny G]

their dumb Lassie joke.

[Steve Covino]

Oh. I was gonna say, yeah, Mike, who runs this place, brought up every. Old dog you could think of. So, hey, there's no wrong answers, though. And it doesn't even have to be a celebrity dog. Don't you remember? Like Old Yeller? I love Old Yeller.

[Rich Davis]

You're saying Big Mike. Big Mike's old timer answers were Rin Tin Tin, Old Yeller, and Lassie.

[Steve Covino]

Yes, yes. Y. You know, growing up an 80s kid, like Benji was a famous dog. Spuds McKenzie, party dog.

[Rich Davis]

Spuds Mackenzie might be the coolest dog.

[Danny G]

Alex Westros.

[Steve Covino]

From where? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So we open up the phones, we have some fun. We go from hot dogs to actual dogs. 87799 on Fox. Celebrating the dogs of our life. I wasn't a dog family growing up, but I had Monkey and Max. Two chihuahuas.

[Rich Davis]

What did you say? Hoochie walla. What did you say?

[Steve Covino]

I said hoochiehwa.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, two Chihuahuas.

[Steve Covino]

You know, cheat. Two Chihuahuas. Ahead.

[Rich Davis]

Chihuahuas.

[Steve Covino]

And now Theo, man, I have a fit. Theo pays the rent. My dog now, he's in national campaigns. True story.

[Danny G]

Bigger star than you.

[Steve Covino]

Yo, he get, yo, he gets. Yo, he's the man, dude. And he's an ass magnet. I take this dog out. One coming up to me talking about him, Theo. He's a shy poo.

[Danny G]

What's the last national campaign he was in?

[Steve Covino]

I don't even know. I forget. He's been in a bunch. Seriously, like print and mostly like online and print. Yeah. So he. But big brands, so Theo's my guy now.

[Rich Davis]

Know what I love Cavino's dog. This is such an insult to Covino. Cavino's dog once did a commercial with a Latino guy that they were like, no, your regular owner's not good enough, but this other Latino guy is.

[Steve Covino]

I like my dog, Danny G. I'm. I didn't want to. I guess I'll say it on the air, man. I'm getting my dog baptized. I was wondering if you wanted to be the godfather, the dog father.

[Rich Davis]

Have you seen that prank on social media? Call up your old. It's some. Some great pranking, Paul. If you have, like an old school, like, especially, like, old school Italian relative,

[Steve Covino]

call them up and ask them what they're doing on. Just pick a date.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, what are you doing the weekend of, like, June 20th? I'm doing nothing.

[Steve Covino]

Why?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, we're gonna get our dog baptized.

[Steve Covino]

Dog baptized.

[Rich Davis]

It's a good prank.

[Steve Covino]

It is a good prank.

[Danny G]

In la, everybody would believe you. I know they treat kids, the. Their dogs like kids and push them around in, you know, strollers, and I won't, I won't.

[Kathleen Griffith]

They put, like, boots on them.

[Danny G]

They don't really dress them up in foofy clothes here.

[Steve Covino]

I'll tell you what danger. I do think you'd be a great dog father, though. The dog father who comes to mind. Do you have a funny dog story? Now's the time to share it. Okay, so 87799 on Fox. We got some loaded lines. And hey, if you have a really great story or something that. That wows us, we'll hook you up.

[Rich Davis]

I don't want to hear your dog story.

[Steve Covino]

All right?

[Rich Davis]

But I do want to hear your favorite dog. Can I give you my top three? Because I challenge you to get better dogs in this.

[Steve Covino]

Well, I know your favorite AirBuds. Everybody knows you love air.

[Rich Davis]

Bud Camino has this ongoing joke.

[Steve Covino]

This ongoing joke. I only know that movie because you always talked about it.

[Rich Davis]

It's a joke in my family, and it's not even me. But I love that you assign it to me, so I'll take it. But I remember coming home from college and my mom had bought, like, every VHS tape possible. Yeah. For you. And it was like airbud Then it was like, airbud. Golden Retrieve. Golden Receiver. Golden Retriever. There's a whole series. And I'm like, mom.

[Steve Covino]

She's like, is it Golden Retriever or is it Golden Receiver? Or both.

[Rich Davis]

But there's an airbud that plays baseball.

[Steve Covino]

It's playing words.

[Kathleen Griffith]

It's like, Golden Receiver. There's like a football one.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, right? I think so. I've never seen. I only know it from Rich.

[Rich Davis]

But honestly, Air Bud, my mom and younger siblings.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Golden receiver, 1998, they.

[Rich Davis]

I did perfect. That's my freshman year of college. I remember coming home and my mom's like, richie, I had all the Air Bud VHS tapes. I'm like, what are we doing? What happened to you guys?

[Steve Covino]

I was.

[Rich Davis]

I was gone for college. And this is what you're watching.

[Steve Covino]

Air Bud.

[Rich Davis]

Air Bud. I have two of my favorite TV ones. Can I give you two great TV dogs?

[Steve Covino]

Brian.

[Rich Davis]

Brian the dog on Family Guy. Brian talking dog. How do you not love Brian?

[Steve Covino]

Okay.

[Rich Davis]

Give me my money. And we celebrate the anniversary of this show this week. Al Bundy's dog. The Bundy's dog. Buck, remember, just would once in a while have like a monologue, like an internal monologue, and it would just sit there.

[Steve Covino]

By the way, Married With Children came out this week. 1997.

[Rich Davis]

87.

[Steve Covino]

1987. That's right. 11 seasons. 1987. On a network that no one really knew at the time. Fox.

[Isaac Loewencrun]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

And it was pushing the envelope. And the funny thought about Buck and Al Bundy is they were supposed to be like a low income, schlubby family, but from today's standard, they're pretty awesome.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. When you look at it, Al Bundy, they had a huge house. Yeah, they had. They had two kids.

[Steve Covino]

I didn't see Kelly Bundy on Only Fans.

[Rich Davis]

And Peg was like a stay at home mom, Like a housewife. And they still seem to make ends meet. And everything was fine. Peg and she was like a horny mom. Like, like, what was her bed?

[Steve Covino]

Ye. She wanted some. Al was supposed to be like a. Like an overweight, schlubby guy. He's in great shape.

[Rich Davis]

From today's standard, Al Bundy, four touchdowns, one game.

[Steve Covino]

He's a winner. He's a winner. In today's world.

[Rich Davis]

In today's world, Al Bundy, that show would be so different. From today's perspective, I was by no means the schlub that he was made out to be in 87.

[Steve Covino]

My dog. All right.

[Danny G]

I got one from the 70s.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

The Brady Bunches dog. Tiger.

[Steve Covino]

Tiger.

[Danny G]

Remember the episode where things kept going missing?

[Isaac Loewencrun]

Yes.

[Danny G]

And Bobby got blamed. He had to empty all his pockets and all the endless toys were being dumped on the table.

[Steve Covino]

That's why. You know what?

[Danny G]

Remember where all the stolen items ended up, though? They were inside Tiger's dog house.

[Steve Covino]

Because everyone could imagine that backyard and a little swing set and Tiger's doghouse. And what's.

[Rich Davis]

Was that another. Was that an episode that went through commercials? Emotionally? I can't believe everyone's blaming me. I can't believe everyone's.

[Danny G]

With Bobby standing in the corner getting whipped with a belt.

[Steve Covino]

Actual Brady Bunch house.

[Rich Davis]

Don't make me put down my blueprints and whip you.

[Steve Covino]

It's actually, like, a town away.

[Rich Davis]

We've never.

[Steve Covino]

However, Bob, who's in our studio visiting with his family, just came back from the Brady Bunch house. He. I was so funny. Yeah, he just went. He said it was awesome.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Great, Great neighborhood. It's not far from here.

[Steve Covino]

It's not. It's a town. It's in Studio City.

[Rich Davis]

That layout's very much like my home.

[Steve Covino]

I said that to you.

[Kathleen Griffith]

It blends in. Well, like.

[Steve Covino]

And they've kept.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Haven't they kept the original architecture inside? Like.

[Steve Covino]

No, they redid it. Yeah, they just redid it. So.

[Rich Davis]

Just like, Lance Best was trying to buy it a couple years ago. Remember them?

[Danny G]

So, yeah, they made a TV show out of setting it up to look exactly like the TV show.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, it was cool to see 87799 on Fox. Famous dogs of our lifetime that come to mind. Could be from TV shows, movies or whatever. Let's go to the phones. Give them their due. Give them their props on this day where we got great news for Dog's Health in the future.

[Danny G]

Yeah, a lot of cartoon dogs.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, a lot. Lot. So I didn't want to give them all away. You know what I will say, though? Because I really didn't. What did I say? Spuds Mackenzie. Bob brought me this Pee Wee Herman doll as a gift. Remember In Pee Wee's Big Adventure, Spec, he had Speck. He had that little tiny dog.

[Rich Davis]

Specific Spec.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Was Spec a Jack Russell terrier?

[iHeartRadio Announcer]

Like a little.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, like a little white spotted dog. Remember that?

[Rich Davis]

Let's see if you guys know what is the. What's the name of the University of Georgia Bulldog?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, that's a good one. Oh, name of the dog.

[Rich Davis]

There you go, Sammy. Good one.

[Kathleen Griffith]

There's been several Uggas over the years. They just keep naming the six now.

[Steve Covino]

All right, I'm going to put you on the spot because I think you might know Rich graduated from Cary High School, but Jim Carrey High School, more like it. Because his whole personality, I think, was based off Jim Carrey. But he really did go to Cary High School in Franklin Square, Long Island. In the movie the Mask, what was the name of his dog? Oh, I don't know.

[Kathleen Griffith]

That's why I was just thinking of a Jack.

[Webull Advertiser]

Also.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Jack Russell terrier.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that's what made me think of it. Wasn't it Milo?

[Webull Advertiser]

Milo, yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, good one. Yeah.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Wasn't there another Milo and Otis about the. Otis was the dog. The pug.

[Webull Advertiser]

Great.

[Kathleen Griffith]

That. That's a great movie.

[Steve Covino]

All right, so, dog, Back to the phones. 877-99-ON FOX.

[Rich Davis]

Let me hit you up with one. Go ahead. As a kid, my dad never wanted a dog. So the minute my parents got divorced, my mom's like, we're getting a dog. Total spite move.

[Steve Covino]

Okay.

[Rich Davis]

We got a golden retriever named Shadow after what movie?

[Steve Covino]

I know, after Shadow Stevens, your mom's favorite square on Hollywood Squares.

[Rich Davis]

That's exactly right. Exactly right. What is it? Her mom had the hots for it. Let's see if you go two for two, Sam. Homeward Bound. Homeward Bound. And that movie Heartstrings at the end of Homeward Bound. No spoilers. I feel like. I'm telling you, Bruce Willis was dead the whole time. At the end of Homeward Bounds, when you think that Shadow, the golden retriever is dead in the ditch and then he starts running over the hill.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Do you. Do you know who voiced all the. So there were three animals. Do you know who voiced those three animals?

[Rich Davis]

Michael J. Fox was the feisty dog. That was the other one. Who. Who was the. Who is Shadow? It was like an old timey time guy, Right?

[Steve Covino]

Like an old timey time guy.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Yeah, it was. Let's see here. It was Don Amici. Don Amici who was in Trading Places.

[Rich Davis]

Shadow.

[Kathleen Griffith]

And then Sally Field was the cat.

[Rich Davis]

Sally Field was the cat.

[Steve Covino]

Never saw it.

[Rich Davis]

Never saw this you never saw Homeward Bound.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Chance, Sassy and Shadow.

[Rich Davis]

I never saw everybody all chance old Sassy.

[Steve Covino]

How about.

[Danny G]

How about Famous Movie Dogs? I was thinking of Back to the Future. Almost a perfect film. Einie. Einstein.

[Rich Davis]

Ah.

[Steve Covino]

Einstein. Of course.

[Rich Davis]

The first living creature to travel through time.

[Danny G]

Exactly.

[Rich Davis]

Einstein.

[Steve Covino]

Einstein. That's a good one. All right, back to the phones. 877-99-NOx. Who do we got?

[Danny G]

Danny G. Our boy Tripp in Vegas.

[Steve Covino]

Trip in Vegas.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Tripp.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, Can y' all hear me?

[Steve Covino]

We can hear you.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, brother?

[Caller/Listener]

Oh, sorry. I'm sorry. I'm at work. Oh, hey, so I'll rattle off a few Hong Kong Police. Name was Pinrod Cooch. Not many people know that. How about Snoopy? Scooby Doo, the junkyard dog from wrestling. And then the best, I think, is Hercules from the sandlot.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Great one.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, that's a good one. Man, those are all great.

[Steve Covino]

He just stole, like, five people's answers just now.

[Rich Davis]

He's alive. Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

You're allowed to, though. Those are great answers. I. I was waiting for someone to say Scooby Doo. I mean, how about Scrappy?

[Rich Davis]

I like Scrappy. Do a lot of Zillow.

[Steve Covino]

Did dad incorporate, like, Scooby Doo and Scrappy Doo into every song somehow?

[Rich Davis]

Like, yeah, Scooby Doo.

[Danny G]

Rich, didn't you like Scrappy was better? Didn't you think? I thought cartoon was better.

[Rich Davis]

He's a little badass.

[Danny G]

It was kind of creepy.

[Steve Covino]

Puppy Power. Hanna Barbera. Classics, for sure. And, you know, if we're gonna go that route, Astro. Right. Jetsons. Which, by the way, if they ever made Rich's dad in cartoon form, he'd be George Jetson, no doubt.

[Rich Davis]

My dad. My dad's cut from a George Jetson.

[Steve Covino]

His dad is George Jetson. Oh. Oh. Great to be here, Richie. Hey, what's up, Greg? Oh, happy to be here.

[Rich Davis]

I know

[Steve Covino]

Rich's dad is George Jetson, but he wears Hawaiian shirts. That's it.

[Rich Davis]

George Jetson on holiday. Can I give you one that I'm surprised you haven't thought of? Maybe you have, because you're a huge fan.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, by the way, Snoopy was a great answer, too. And I love the Joe Cool stuff. Snoopy. Thank you, Tripp, for the call. Go ahead. What do you got?

[Rich Davis]

Let me give you one that there's a great story behind the dog. One of our favorite actors and characters of all time. Stallone, Rocky, Balbo, Bacus Bis. The story was that Stallone had to sell his dog in a desperate move. Sold but then when he made Rocky, he somehow was able to buy his dog back. Dog, like, I mean, come on. Desperate measures. Phones are all hot, people.

[Steve Covino]

That's a great one.

[Rich Davis]

People love their dog. Yeah, but it's underrated. All right.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, we're giving props to the dogs, you know, and it makes sense.

[Rich Davis]

They keep you happy.

[Steve Covino]

They're man's best friend and I'm going

[Rich Davis]

to look it up. What do you think the dog industry is worth? Like between pet food? Do you think it's multi billion gazillion dollar industry?

[Steve Covino]

I mean, by the way, you know I'm on the history channel, right? So I've heard a few stories. I don't know if there's. Okay, history boy, they call me history boy. I don't know history over here, how accurate this is. So don't quote me. But if it is accurate, feel free to quote Steve Covino. Man's best friend. Started like in the caveman days because it was a perfect pairing of man would hunt food and kill food and the dogs would wait around just for the scavenge. Yeah, for the scraps. But as they waited around for food, they also warned man of predators. So the man, the cavemen loved having these dogs around because they warned them of predators. They would feed them the scraps and that's where the relationship started. So our relationship with dogs goes back that far? Yes, that's why we have that relationship.

[Danny G]

Rich, you seeing this number?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, I was gonna say According to chat GPT, around $275 billion globally, expected to grow by the early 2000-30s to a 500 plus billion dollar annual industry, the pet industry, between food and every everything involving pets. So my goodness.

[Steve Covino]

All right, so back to the phones.

[Danny G]

Yep.

[Rich Davis]

Isn't it crazy to think though within the last few generations people used to like keep their dog in a doghouse, in the yard, on a leash, on a chain. And now people put their dogs in sweaters and they sleep in your bed with you. Honestly, like remember we had that conversation old school? Like what would old timers find weird about today? We treat pets like members of the family. And I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that, but.

[Steve Covino]

No, we evolved, I guess. Yeah. Pete's changed so much.

[Danny G]

Our grandparents said that pets are meant to be outside.

[Rich Davis]

Exactly. Think about your immigrant parents from the early 1900s that came here like three, four generations ago. If they had a pet, it was in a little in the backyard, didn't come in the house.

[Steve Covino]

It has changed a lot. It's a good Point.

[Kathleen Griffith]

Dogs were helpful for hunting and, you know, like, again, warding off predators.

[Rich Davis]

People throw a dog a bone.

[Webull Advertiser]

Literally.

[Rich Davis]

That's like, throw a dog a bone. Right now. You're like, it needs organic treats. I don't know if it could have that. Let's go rapid fire.

[Danny G]

Let's go to Queens.

[Kathleen Griffith]

My dog has a soy allergy.

[Steve Covino]

Peanut allergy.

[Rich Davis]

Can't have that.

[Steve Covino]

Woofles. Can't have peanuts. Thank you.

[Danny G]

Ray is listening in Queens.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Ray.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, what's up, gentlemen? So I'm about the same age as you guys.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

You remember those Ernest movies?

[Rich Davis]

Of course.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

With John Cena dog. Rim shot.

[Rich Davis]

Rim shot. That's funny as hell.

[Ben Walter]

Yes.

[Rich Davis]

By the way, Kavino said it. But have you noticed that John Cena sort of looks like Ernest now?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, as he gets older. We say that respectfully because I don't want to get body slammed if I ever meet him.

[Danny G]

What's that, Ray?

[Caller/Listener]

All right, guys.

[Danny G]

Thank you, brother.

[Steve Covino]

Thank you, man. Who else do we got?

[Danny G]

All right, let's go to New York State again. Steve.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, Steve.

[Rich Davis]

Steve O.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, guys. Let me just tell you this. You guys make my day because you remind me, like, of my friends sitting around, like, cracking lies, you know, like, it's that kind of a familiar format of a program. And I just really appreciate it. You and Dan Patrick get me through the day. So I want to say thank you.

[Rich Davis]

Honestly, things like that make me feel good. So thank you.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I appreciate it.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah, yeah. Two quick ones. The old man, remember on Frazier, he had that dog Eddie? Yeah, Eddie was pretty cool, but the coolest dog ever in my life. And this is a true story. When I was a kid, we moved out to our cottage, and my parents never let me have a dog. But this dog named Gus, he will come every summer, and he would just show up. He would stay at People's Cottages, and we'd all love Gus. Gus is here. But then Gus knew when it was time to move on, like, to the next cottage, and he would work his way down the cottages. And I never know who owned this dog, but my sister and I, we still have this great memory of Gus showing up.

[Rich Davis]

You know what I wonder about that. There's. I just got back from the Dominican Republic, right? And I feel like there were cats on the resort premises. And I imagine they just live by just sort of making their rounds, knowing random workers or people will.

[Danny G]

You're gonna see that in Hawaii, too. They have island cats, like, just like,

[Rich Davis]

you know, like some. Yeah, someone will throw them a little something and that's how they get by. That's wild, Gus. It's a good one, buddy.

[Steve Covino]

Great story, man. Thanks. Yeah.

[Danny G]

Great phone call. Let's go to Chris in Inglewood.

[Steve Covino]

Yo, Chris. What's up?

[Caller/Listener]

How's it going, guys? A great topic because I've always wanted to give these. They're doing. They never do. But if you remember the dogs in Terminator 1, when Kyle Reese is explaining how the future looks and he goes to that quick scenario, the dogs barking save the day. When the Terminator pops up in the human world and he that's his only way that he escapes, the dogs alert. Their barking gets him out of there.

[Steve Covino]

I love that. You know what?

[Rich Davis]

I never even thought of that. Can I tell you guys? He said the dog's barking. Can I tell you a quick 22nd story?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

No.

[Steve Covino]

He made me think of like a million different things during that story. Thank you, bro.

[Rich Davis]

We always talk about, like, times where like, oh, dogs are so friendly and happy and like, of course there's bad dog stories where things go wrong. I, I think every guy could relate to this because women are more sensitive and sweet and kind than we're boneheads.

[Steve Covino]

Right?

[Rich Davis]

You ever driving down the street and you see a stray dog, and a lot of times you'll stop. As I have a collar, you try to help, but then sometimes I can't. I just, I'm on a highway, I'm in a rush. We were on a highway in Texas, actually 35 if you live Austin, San Antonio. We were on the 35 and we see a stray dog on the side. And my wife is like, babe, we gotta pull over. Like, the dog's gonna run on the highway and get killed. I was like, all right. So we pull over the car, the dog, like, goes into some, like, brush area. And I'm like, oh, my God, we gotta go help this dog. We go over this little hill. And then the dog was with like 10 other dogs looking at us like they lured us. And I go, ah. And I run back to the car and sort of push my wife aside. And to this day she's like, your instinct was to push me aside and get out of the way. Wow. But it was very like, the dog lured us back. Like, we're gonn going to lure, like. I was like, this dog's going to eat me.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, by the way, you know what I keep seeing on social media? You know, the buttons that they sell. Now, is everybody keen on this? Does everybody know what I'm talking about? They sell buttons to train your Dog. So the dog will be like, treat. Outside, treat. Rub my belly. And the dog starts to know these commands and then he start hitting these buttons.

[Danny G]

I don't think you're making this up, dude.

[Steve Covino]

I am not.

[Rich Davis]

You know what? Get a better algorithm. Get a better algorithm.

[Steve Covino]

Bob and Heather know what I'm talking about. But that's how far it's going. It's like outside.

[Rich Davis]

Wait, hold on.

[Steve Covino]

Outside.

[Rich Davis]

What does this button say? Treat. What does this button say? Weak ass. Owner.

[Steve Covino]

All right. By the way, you think I'm making that up? I'm not.

[Rich Davis]

I believe you.

[Steve Covino]

They exist and all the dogs know how to use them.

[Danny G]

Is that like the racist voice we have on that drop?

[Rich Davis]

Racist? Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

When Rich comes over and says, nerd, nerd. By the way, you made me think of a few Rich. I don't know why, but my mind keeps wandering. Marmaduke, right? You think of Marmaduke and growing up watching cartoons, didn't you feel like on a mountain you'd see some sort of St. Bernard with a barrel around his neck?

[Rich Davis]

Never saw that, right?

[Steve Covino]

He's always saving someone's life on a ski lift.

[Rich Davis]

I have a great Saint Barthoven.

[Kathleen Griffith]

It was like the Swiss Alps. Like they would whiskey in the barrel.

[Steve Covino]

But wasn't it in like every cartoon?

[Danny G]

Especially part of droopy cartoons.

[Rich Davis]

Remember Droopy Guys, I have a real. Honestly, you would think. How does Rich have a story for everything? I have a really bizarre St. Bernard story.

[Steve Covino]

I can't wait.

[Rich Davis]

And I'm going to tell you next time.

[Steve Covino]

You know what? I'm on the edge of my seat.

[Rich Davis]

Hang tight. Plus we're going to talk Colorado Rockies.

[Steve Covino]

Saint Bernard.

[Danny G]

That may be the strangest tease we've ever had on this show.

[Rich Davis]

I have a wild St. Bernard story that plus we'll talk some MLB and a bunch next. Right here, Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, you know what rapid fire Danny gave? Then we'll talk a little Major League Baseball. There's a team celebrating mediocrity and I love it.

[Steve Covino]

Well, we're talking dogs because there Was a big announcement today. It's not FDA approved yet, but they're saying 20, 26, a pill that's gonna give added health benefits to dogs.

[Rich Davis]

That could add years to a dog's life.

[Steve Covino]

It says one to four years, which is wild. I mean, which is a lot for them.

[Danny G]

Saying by the end of this year, it'll be approved.

[Rich Davis]

That's like 20% life. I mean, it's a lot. It's a big deal. So rapid fire, your favorite dogs, tv movies, what do you got?

[Rich Davis]

Good dog. Sit, Ubu, Sit. You know, I'm the idiot kid. I thought it was Boo Boo for, like, my whole child.

[Steve Covino]

Everybody did, bro. Everybody.

[Rich Davis]

But it was so dumb because it was Ubu Productions.

[Steve Covino]

That's Ubu.

[Rich Davis]

But when you were a kid, you're like, sit, Boo Boo, sit.

[Steve Covino]

It's like.

[Rich Davis]

Like Ubu.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

By the way, that's a really cool pull right there.

[Rich Davis]

What TV show do you think of? I think a Family Ties.

[Steve Covino]

I don't know. I mean, it was so many.

[Rich Davis]

Sit, Ubu. Sit. Good dog.

[Steve Covino]

For sure. Everybody knows that. Everyone. Everyone who watched TV in the 80s.

[Rich Davis]

People don't know that was Isaac's voiceover.

[Danny G]

Like West Coasters. We saw this commercial a thousand times, and it was, go see Cal. Go see Cal. Go see Cal. But as little kids, we thought it was pussy cow. Pussy cow, Pussy cow. Because he had animals on the car lot.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, I thought Sam had a BP there for a second. I know.

[Steve Covino]

I don't know what's going on right now.

[Danny G]

You're not from California. All right, let's go to Texas. George is in the house.

[Caller/Listener]

Hey, guys, I got three for you. I got the. The dog from Tom Slick. Remember the little guy that would.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Caller/Listener]

Every time Tom Slick would win, and then the other guy would lose. And then the little do right dog or whatever his name was. And then the Taco Bell dogs.

[Rich Davis]

Yo, Kira. Taco Bell was huge. You know, Chihuahuas are the most popular dog in the United States as far as ownership now.

[Steve Covino]

Yo, Quiera. Taco Bell. That was. That was a big, big campaign my family had.

[Rich Davis]

We had a little stuffed animal. That dog. Yeah, they made merch for that little Taco Bell.

[Steve Covino]

Dog. Good call on that, by the way.

[Danny G]

Richard couldn't hold, but he said to remind you guys about dollar from Richie Rich. And he said Marley and me because he blubbered. And I've told you guys about that. I was on a date in a movie theater and I was so embarrassed because I couldn't turn the waterworks off.

[Dr. Nicole Safire]

And I'm not.

[Danny G]

I'm not a crier either. In that movie. The way they made it, it just something about it.

[Steve Covino]

Danny G was like, oh, man.

[Rich Davis]

Boo hoo hoo hoo.

[Steve Covino]

That's how Danny G Cries a lot of people.

[Danny G]

First of all, I don't sound anything like that. All right, let's go to Kevin in Pennsylvania.

[Rich Davis]

What's wrong, Danny? Nothing.

[Danny G]

Damn you. Marley and me might have scored you points though, right? Yeah, she's. Oh, man, this guy's sensitive.

[Steve Covino]

Do you remember the dog in Garfield? Oh, yeah, Garfield and Odie.

[Caller/Listener]

Yeah.

[Danny G]

All right, Pennsylvania. What's up?

[Rich Davis]

What's up, pa?

[Caller/Listener]

The previous caller kind of stole my thunder with the Taco Bell and the Ubu. But I'm gonna date myself here a little bit. How about the dog from Little Rascals?

[Steve Covino]

Oh,

[Caller/Listener]

I can't remember.

[Steve Covino]

Spot or no Petey. Am I making that up?

[Rich Davis]

Petey sounds right.

[Steve Covino]

I think I'm right.

[Rich Davis]

I'll go with that.

[Danny G]

Sam is checking.

[Steve Covino]

You think Richard? No, He's Alfalfa's biggest fan. Yeah, look at me, bro.

[Danny G]

All right, let's wrap it up with Flaco in upstate New York.

[Caller/Listener]

Gentlemen, thank you for having me on. I appreciate it.

[Rich Davis]

No problem.

[Caller/Listener]

Going back to going back to the old school theme. Retired copy. Found a white pit bull about a year old in the back of a trap house that was tied up. Ended up driving around the back of my black and white, brought it home and went over like a pregnant pole vaulter with my 9 month pregnant wife at the time. So I ended up having a non official adoption vetting process within the hood for the next three days. Within the back of my car. Found the right family, delivered both the new owner and the dog to the vet, get the shots, and then I saw him for the next seven years in the hood. Still brings a smile to my face, boys.

[Rich Davis]

There you go.

[Danny G]

That was awesome.

[Kathleen Griffith]

That's nice.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, you know, neither. None of no one seemed really urgent to hear my wild St. Bernard story.

[Steve Covino]

I've been waiting. Why do you think I'm sitting on the edge of my seat?

[Rich Davis]

So my, my brother Jimmy had a childhood best bud whose dad would always walk his big St. Bernard around town. This story really isn't much about the St. Bernard, but I just, I remember the family. They were the type of family that had multiple huge Saint Bernard. So this guy would walk around.

[Steve Covino]

Did he wear barrels like the cartoons?

[Rich Davis]

But like, these are like the biggest dogs ever seen in my life. This guy would walk by the block every day. Hey, what's going on? I'd be like, hey, Mr. G. This guy would walk by every St. Bernard's now this is a typical picture of a guy in the 80s, bald guy with a mustache. One day he shows up walking these dogs with a huge pompadour haircut. Guy got big, like a huge hair transplant. And I remember my whole family being like, should we address it? Do we say anything? Because from now on, he used to like either wear a hat or cover his head. Boga. All of a sudden he had like John, as you would say, Johnny Suede.

[Steve Covino]

Johnny Suede. Like he was Silvio of the Sopranos.

[Rich Davis]

And they. I don't know how you live with multiple Saint Bernards in the house, but oh, man, those are some beautiful dogs. I just don't know if I'm down for a big ass dog like that.

[Kathleen Griffith]

They slobber a lot. They're huge.

[Steve Covino]

How about for you rock fans out there? You know how many sublime songs reference Lou Dog, the Dalmatian? I got a Dalmatian.

[Rich Davis]

I could still.

[Steve Covino]

His dog Lou is referenced in so many of those songs. So.

[Danny G]

Dude, I'm glad you brought that up. Dmx, his beloved pit bull was Boomer.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, there's a lot of artists that incorporate their dog to, you know, in their music and stuff like that. Cartoons, movies and just such a big part of our life. And I hope these, these vitamins, these beef flavored vitamins get approved soon so our dogs could last longer. So there you have it. Old school win 50 hits. More answers.

Isaac Loewencrun, what's going on?

[Isaac Loewencrun]

Yeah, well, thank you very much. We got round one of the masters winding its way down to its conclusion. Sam Burns and defending champion Rory McIlroy remain tied for the lead. Both of them shot five under 67s today. NBA Philadelphia 76ers star Joel Embiid, undergoing an appendectomy today in Houston, obviously won't play. Therefore, in tonight's game against the Rockets, Golden State ruled Steph Curry out for tonight's game against the Lakers because of right knee injury management. Celtics ruled out Jaylen Brown for tonight's game against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden because of left Achilles tendonitis. Does your afternoon need a boost?

Yo, what's up, dog? Someone called me Big Dog recently. I was a little offended by that. I'm like, I'm not your dog, Big Dog.

[Rich Davis]

I don't get offended by that. It annoys me, though. Someone recently, I was at a. At a store and someone's like, yo, yo, Big Dog. And I'm like, yeah, all right.

[Steve Covino]

[Steve Covino]

Yo, happy birthday.

[Rich Davis]

What a great. He's a Seahawks fan. What a great birthday. 49.

[Steve Covino]

He's a 49er now. I know. All right, so I brought in my reveal is my sister got me this. Now it's a little more common. The word is out, but I got it early on. I was like, whoa, I'm not a big bobblehead collector or a Funko Pop collector, but she got me a personalized Covino Funko pop complete with microphone. Because I'm a radio host and my dog. Speaking of all the dog talk, my dog Theo as a little companion. But it's a personalized Funko Pop. I think they're still available if you want to buy one. But they're so cool. So I bring that to the office. I have that in my office at home.

[Danny G]

That is cool. You can see it on our YouTube channel right now. Spot just closed in on the doggy.

[Steve Covino]

Yep. So that's my personalized Funko Pop.

[Rich Davis]

And I dipped into the. I have a big box of all autographed baseballs and memorabilia. And I said, let me pull a random one out and see what comes out. Got Pete Rose today.

Now, tonight, we should all be rooting for the Rockies, not only because Danny, you're a Dodgers fan, and Moncy. Hi, Moncy, you're a Dodgers fan. And Rockies are playing the Padres. So I'm sure we want the Padres to lose.

[Danny G]

We hate the Padres more than the

[Steve Covino]

Rockies, but, I mean, go ahead.

[Rich Davis]

But get this.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

If the Rockies win tonight, they will be over.500 for the first time since 2022, I believe.

[Steve Covino]

I'm not necessarily rooting for that. I picked the Padres in that. The league. I'm in your elimination pool with my elimination pool.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, Rocky, I thought that's what you're gonna say.

[Steve Covino]

I thought Rich was rooting for the Rockies just to bother me.

[Rich Davis]

Oh.

[Steve Covino]

So, yeah, I need the. I need the Padres twin. Personally, did you see the.

[Rich Davis]

The videos coming out of Colorado where fans are just cheering to get to 500 and the guys in the bleachers

[Danny G]

with their shirts off?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, no, I think that's cool. I. Hey, they got something to cheer about. So I'm not against that. But they got the.500 against the Pirates yesterday.

[Rich Davis]

But interestingly enough, though, like, in hockey, the Avalanche, of course, the Broncos, the Nuggets, like, that's a team. That's a city of. Of competitiveness, of champions. Like. So to me, the fact that the Rockies have sort of fallen off lately, it shows that there needs to be an ownership move or something.

[DraftKings Sportsbook Advertiser]

Right?

[Danny G]

Well, but the fans, they need a pat on the back in that city. They're 14th in attendance last year. The Rockies.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, it's just for a city, you

[Danny G]

know, how many games under.500 they finished. So the fans, they come out, no matter.

[Rich Davis]

Denver's a great city, great stadium. Been to Coors Field. And you know what? Always wishing them the best. That, you know, in a tough division, it's going to be really tough for the Rockies to, you know, you have the Dodgers permanently there. The Padres are always sort of in it, and Arizona is always pesky. They're a good team. So you're dealing with a tough division to begin with. So Rockies get over.500. That would be pretty cool. And you know what? Tomorrow we'll continue this because I do want to touch on some of the. I guess you would say saddest fan bases in all sports. Like who who's always who's always hoping for greatness and they never get it because you got to put the Rockies in that conversation. Think about it. We'll talk about tomorrow. Over promised. All the stuff we didn't get to, we will get to next. We'll talk booties and a bunch more this honestly for real booties. Arriva dare you baby.

[Steve Covino]
