Steve Covino
I just realized that Lily from the AT&T commercials has an OnlyFans page. Guys, you're a creeper. Milana Vayne, Trub. I've never paid for an OnlyFans in my life. In fact, if you do, I think you're a weenie. But the AT&T girl has one. But she's doing it for good reasons. You know the AT&T girl, everybody sort of sweats.
Dan Byer
What, to make a lot of money?
Steve Covino
No, she's taking sort of sexy photos and using her powers. When I say powers, I mean her powers for good. She. She's taking all money earned and donating it to wildfire victims that lost everything.
Dan Byer
Wow.
Steve Covino
Yeah. That's really cool. Right? So I just saw that now. Like, whoa, mama whammy.
Dan Byer
Can someone's wife or girlfriend get mad if you're supporting wildfire?
Steve Covino
Hey, I'm supporting the victims. Bang off.
Dan Byer
Come on.
Steve Covino
But I just saw that story anyway. That wasn't in Dan Byers update, but stick around for his.
Dan Byer
All right, listen, buddy boy, we're going to Be at the All Star Game. Come this weekend. We're going to get there Sunday.
Steve Covino
You bring in your glove for Home Run Derby.
Dan Byer
We went one year and they handed out gloves. I know we once saw a guy get hit in the face of the ball.
Steve Covino
Sure did.
Dan Byer
And we saw blood immediately come out of his face. Albert Pool Holston. A ball, a rock, a rocket, right to this guy.
Steve Covino
One of those screamers, like those Baseball Tonight screamers.
Danny G
I'm glad Rich brought that up, though. I was going to ask you guys if we should bring our gloves because I hit it when you said that we're a jabroni. If we bring it to a baseball game as an adult, I mean, it's.
Steve Covino
A home Run derby. I can't be that mad about it. I always say the rule here is we establish on show like anyone over the age of 12. Bringing a glove to a game. Again, weenie. But Home Run Derby, I think, is a different ball game, pun intended. Home Run Derby. I'm not mad at it.
Dan Byer
It's the one time.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Dan Byer
Where I'd say, all right, well, the whole point is, if you get seats in the outfield, isn't the whole point of it to try to snag a home run?
Steve Covino
The whole point for us is to get on tv, so look out for us.
Dan Byer
Bushwhacking.
Steve Covino
Yeah, we're going to be bushwhacking. Whoa. Anytime a ball is hit anywhere in our vicinity, look on TV for someone doing the Luke and Butch. That's going to be us.
Danny G
Plus, on the Fox Sports stage, if we have any time to kill, we could play catch and throw fastballs near all the equipment.
Steve Covino
Nice.
Dan Byer
Let's do that question for you guys to wrap up the whole Aaron Rodgers denying the autograph hound. Our buddy Sean hit us up and he goes, don't you guys want personalized autographs? Even if, like, autographs are now backseat to selfies and pictures anyway. But if you were to get an autograph, Danny G. Let's say you bumped into Mookie Bets at the All Star Game, and you're like, yo, I'm wearing a Mookie shirt. Maybe I'll get. Get this autograph, put in a frame. What do you want it to say? To Danny from your boy Mookie Betts. Wouldn't you want it to be personalized?
Danny G
Unless I had a rookie card of a player or something like that, I don't think I would even ask an athlete for an autograph, to be honest with you.
Dan Byer
Yeah, but I'm saying if you were to get an autograph. Well, I feel like if you are.
Steve Covino
To get an autograph, they know you. It lessens the value though, if it's someone that you truly admire. Like a straight up hero. Yeah, I want that maybe personalized because I'm never gonna sell it. I don't care about the value. It's the sentimental value.
Dan Byer
Right. You're not like.
Steve Covino
But if you. If I want someone's autograph, I want it to be generic because I know if it says to Steve, it doesn't have the same value, it's not as valuable.
Dan Byer
But here's the thing. Unless you are an autographed hound, but.
Steve Covino
It'S not about a hound. I got a lot of autographs. I don't need them all personalized.
Dan Byer
I think that's the whole point. If I meet. To you, if I meet Shohei Ohtani. If I meet Shohei, I damn well want it to say too rich Shohei Ohtani. Because to me, otherwise you could just buy that at a souvenir shop. You could go buy that at the MLB shop. To me, the whole point is that's why selfies and pictures are number one. And if you're going to get an autograph, which is very old school nowadays, an autograph, pretty soon there will be no autographs because these young players won't know how to write in cursive anyway.
Steve Covino
You're missing my point. Some things I do want because of the value of it. Some things I want because of the sentimental value. So if it's really someone I care about, like Mike Tyson to my boy Covino, Mike Tyson means a lot to me because that's Mike Tyson. But if it's a fighter, I really don't care about that much. Yeah, their autograph alone might have value and that is important to me.
Rich Davis
Isn't the exact opposite a cleaner's or a restaurant? Because you want them to say to Dave's cleaners. Because you want the people to show that you've been there. It would be pretty, pretty lame to just have an autographed picture of somebody on the wall. But the reason why you have it at the cleaners or at the restaurant is to say, I've been here, dude.
Dan Byer
We, we see that all the time. You're right. You go to a diner, a dry cleaner somewhere. Yeah. Robert De Niro gets his slacks cleaned here, you know, to, you know, J and R Cleaners.
Danny G
We see that at a lot of breakfast cafes in Los Angeles.
Dan Byer
As I say. Know what I thought of actually when Dan Byer brought that up? Mortz and Tarzana has a wall of.
Steve Covino
You know, like, Langer's deli or, you know, Cole's French dip.
Rich Davis
Gonna close soon.
Dan Byer
Sadly.
Steve Covino
Yeah. Look, I like the. Again, sentimental value of personalization. So Aaron Rodgers could have done that. Are you mad at him for this? I think he gave this guy plenty of personal time, and that was good enough. I'm not mad at Aaron Rodgers for sniffing out what we call in radio prize pigs or autograph hounds is what he called this dude. But I do believe he may have misread the story here, because I feel, again, I'm no expert because I'm not Aaron Rodgers, but I do feel that this guy that he snubbed was a real fan. That's my impression based on the video that I saw, because Aaron Rodgers didn't see the aftermath. He walks away. We see the video, and the guy's like, sort of his feelings are hurt. He's like, yeah, man, I really am a fan. I was at the game. I was 16. I. I don't remember. Do you remember all the stats?
Dan Byer
I don't.
Steve Covino
I don't remember every play of a.
Dan Byer
Game that I was at.
Danny G
I agree with you. This guy's a really, really good Hollywood actor.
Steve Covino
He.
Danny G
If that's not genuine, his reaction.
Steve Covino
Yeah. So I think Aaron Rodgers missed the guy here, but I don't blame him. It's part of the job is probably a little annoying. And again, he's Aaron Rodgers. It's not talking out of the other side of my mouth, Rich, because when we talked about this recently with the wnba, with Kelsey, Kelsey Plum, she thought the same thing. Right? She thought the same thing, but she's not Aaron Rodgers, dude. Meaning, like, she's not as harassed as an Aaron Rodgers.
Danny G
And it was more specific to her sports, our take on it, because she's like, don't you think this is kind of weird? There were no other autographed seekers out there.
Dan Byer
Yeah.
Steve Covino
Aaron Rodgers has, like, tabloid press hounding him. You know what I mean? Like, he's got a paparazzi level of press asking for autographs all the time.
Rich Davis
How much do you think it was him trying to send a message to other people by doing that? Like, that people will be afraid to ask for autographs.
Dan Byer
Calculated. You're right. Damn. By.
Rich Davis
Because I think it would be easy to sign that one and then remember that guy's face, knowing if he asks again, I'm not going to do it.
Steve Covino
It's a great point. I think it's an interesting clip. If you haven't seen it. Definitely worth the watch.
Dan Byer
You know, there are. There's also a part of me that's like, if you're a guy that's made hundreds of millions of dollars playing sports, and even if some weenie can make 100 bucks off of your autograph, is it. A hundred bucks would mean a lot more to him than you be like.
Steve Covino
No, I won't sign it.
Dan Byer
Like, I mean, at that point isn't even nice to accommodate the doofus.
Steve Covino
It is. But how many times do you watch a video and you actually enjoyed the video, but you didn't like the content? You didn't like it for whatever reason because you think you're the king? I do not give this a. Like, there's this funny clip online of Roger Waters, who obviously with Pink Floyd for a long time, very well known.
Dan Byer
And he's like.
Steve Covino
He has rules about certain things. He won't sign because it hurts his hands. Like anything is sphere shape, like balls, like a baseball or. And so.
Dan Byer
So never ask Robert, Roger, Walter, don't.
Steve Covino
Ask him to sign up. Don't sign balls and don't sign him. He won't sign a miniature bowling pin, which someone gave him a miniature bowling pin and said, will you sign this? He's like, it's too. It hurts my hand. He's also stupid. He's a musician. He's not Pete Weber. Probably got arthritis. You know, I can't do this.
Dan Byer
Cavino has the same rule. He will not sign balls. I will not sign. He will not sign balls.
Steve Covino
What are bowling pins? Because what does it have to do with me? What Rich signage bowling pin. Because he jumped.
Danny G
What if it was one of your 27 Little League home run balls somebody caught?
Steve Covino
Nah, come on. Signed by Roger Waters. I want proof.
Dan Byer
Apparently Adam west, the old school Batman, correct?
Steve Covino
Yes.
Dan Byer
Before he died, he would not sign autographs unless he personalized them. Because a lot of celebrities like, yo, I don't want to be the weight. You know, dirt bag like you makes money. So whatever your thoughts on Aaron Rodgers, you can always chime in. The most interactive show. Covino and Rich. Now, I gotta ask. We're getting closer and closer not only to the All Star break, which is we have a weekend series now. Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and then All Stars and then second half of the year, we got 60, 70 games left in the Major League Baseball season. Is there a move on the horizon for some team that you think is going to be a game changer? I was reading a few articles about deadline the end of July. Do you think an El Contra A Paul Skeens?
Steve Covino
Yes.
Dan Byer
Do you really think one of those high level possible pitchers is on the move?
Steve Covino
What do you think's possible? For sure?
Dan Byer
I do want, I do wonder because a couple years have gone by where nothing really happens. And then other years, the All Star break and the trade deadline, lots of stuff moves around. Like I would say, I would say some starting pitching, Seth Lugo on Kansas City might be in the move. I don't know. Is all the Red Sox going to unload a star here or there if they're out of the mix? So I think with the three wild cards, and if I remember correctly, Dan Byer made this point last year with three wild cards, no team is really that far out of it. So the idea of, yeah, you know, we're sellers is not, is not the thinking anymore. Because some teams realize like, yo, if we could sneak into a Wild Card With 86 wins, teams make noise in the playoffs as a wild card. So I do wonder if there'll be a big trade deadline move and if Paul Skeens is on the move, if he ends up a Yankee, a Met or Dodgers, would that, I mean, would the rest of baseball just roll their eyes?
Steve Covino
Remember, there's some truth to what we said. His girlfriend, Livy Dunn went viral this past week because she was denied a condo that Babe Ruth once owned in New York City. Why was she shopping an apartment or a condo in New York City? That's a head scratcher for sure. And she went out there and publicly discussed that. And, and you don't think that it was a little calculated? You don't think she said to her boyfriend Paul, would it be okay if I posted it? He's like, yeah, let people wonder, let them speculate. Let people start talking about my next move. I think they're, you know, where there's smoke, there's fire. There was something to that. I like to think it's the Yankees. You were saying it's the Mets. But if a guy like Paul Skeens could be on the move and his name has been thrown out a million times, then yeah, nobody's completely safe. And I just think there's more of those players this year than there were last year because I think what Dan Byers said last year was absolutely true. But there seems to be a lot more players that are sort of on the fence right now and a lot more positions that are open. Like for example, the Yankees, they need a third baseman like desperately. Well, so, you know, they're getting, as of right now, cove even cashman said we need a third baseman, we need middle relievers, and we need another starting pitcher.
Danny G
So do you think they'd go after Suarez from the D backs?
Steve Covino
They're saying that. They're saying even Arenados in the mix.
Dan Byer
Danny, look at it this way. As of right now, let's take the National League, Phillies, Cubs, Dodgers. Right, Phillies, Mets, neck and neck. Brewers right there in the mix, too. And the wild cards as of right now would be Mets, brewers and Giants. But you know what? Half a game behind that, Padres, Cardinals, Reds, Diamondbacks, there's teams that are right there within striking distance. So I don't know how many people are going to be sellers unless you're a bottom feeder. And one of those bottom feeders happens to be the Pirates. So let me just pose this question. We'll move along as Livy Dunn looks her apartments. Maybe she's looking in LA too.
Steve Covino
In New York City. That's kind of a wild story.
Dan Byer
If Paul Skeens, because right now I'm a realist. I still can't see anyone beating the Dodgers. But if the Phillies, the Mets, the Yankees, if one of those top tier type teams comes away with Paul Skeens, are the Dodgers beatable?
Steve Covino
Yes. You got to make those big moves, too. The thing is, what do you give up for a guy?
Dan Byer
But what I'm saying is I feel like, Danny, I don't want you to be too cocky, but I think the general sentiment in Vegas would say the same thing.
Steve Covino
You already have a solid base.
Danny G
I don't feel cocky about the Dodgers right now because half of those pitchers that they acquired are hurt right now.
Dan Byer
Yeah. But come playoff time when people are healthy and that lineup just to line.
Danny G
Up, Dodgers now for years have seemed very cursed with the pitchers they pick up. I don't know what it is, but besides that, they have start, they have three starters out right now who have great bats and are great infielders. They're missing Max Muncie. So on the Dodger station here locally, I heard callers screaming about them getting Suarez Kovino. So yeah, there are needy teams.
Steve Covino
Needy teams for sure.
Dan Byer
Oh, you know, you know who else wants to be on the move? And you might say, well, not, not a guy that might make a playoff difference, but a middle rotation guy. Maybe he reunites with Cavino's Yankees or maybe goes West Coast. Severino. Severino wants out of Oakland. He just signed that big contract. And remember, we're like, Oakland paid him that much like, and Severino.
Steve Covino
And so before they even get To Vegas. So maybe, maybe Sevy, maybe stick around to see that.
Dan Byer
He must hate it, but Sevy could be one of those middle of the rotation guys that could really help a team in the second half.
Steve Covino
Absolutely. Pitching is needed. So we're going to see pitching moves. And there's like Danny G said, a lot of needy teams because of the expectations. And I hate to sound cliche, but good pitching always shuts down good hitting. And that's why I think a guy like Skeens going to a big team that already has maybe one ace could definitely be a contender against a powerhouse like the Dodgers.
Dan Byer
No doubt.
Steve Covino
If that happens.
Dan Byer
Listen, coming up, but think about it.
Steve Covino
You don't think it's a weird story when you're so high profile.
Dan Byer
Yeah.
Steve Covino
You know, let's say it wasn't sort of a planned out, calculated move. You don't think Paul schemes are like, why would you do that? Why would you like announce that you're searching for apartments in New York when we're, you know, when I live in.
Dan Byer
Pittsburgh, for, for anyone to think that there's not a little bit of calculation there.
Steve Covino
That's what I'm saying.
Dan Byer
Yeah. Because listen, I get it. You could argue what's New York? Everyone moves to New York at some point when they're young and have money.
Steve Covino
Right.
Dan Byer
But when you're dating Paul Skeens and you're, you know, one of the high profile, hottest young, high profile women and you're like, I'm looking at apartments in New York City and very involved with Paul Skeens, there is some odd subconscious.
Steve Covino
Like, what does that mean they're moving to New York? I guess what's going on?
Dan Byer
I mean, think about it. When athletes, what was the big tip off? Our buddy George Sedano over at ESPN, remember he was the guy that sort of broke LeBron Miami because he got the word that one of those moving.
Steve Covino
Trucks and follow the money, follow the.
Dan Byer
Real estate, follow the moving trucks. And I remember, let's just say we have an inside source that led that gave us the heads up that LeBron might be coming to LA. You got to remember how these people get around, where they, how they get, where they get.
Danny G
Remember he was taking a tour of different schools.
Steve Covino
Oh yeah.
Danny G
People were blabbing their lips about that.
Dan Byer
Yeah. So I'm saying if you don't think Livy Dunn looking at apartments to buy in New York City indicates that Pittsburgh's not permanent. I don't know. Your thoughts will, will examine. But we are going to play a game next. So if you want in, you want to win a prize. We do this every day. We give away something to you guys as our way of saying thank you for listening. 87799 on Fox. We play WNBA Worker. I'm sorry, WNBA Player or Chipotle worker? You got to decide is the woman's name, is she an WNBA player on a roster or is she just some lady that works at Chicago?
Steve Covino
And again, it's for our coveted Swiggy. One of the last, I was saying highly. Even more highly coveted because we only have a few left and I'm going.
Danny G
To have you two sign it.
Steve Covino
Oh, I got now only if I personalize it.
Dan Byer
Yeah, prize hound.
Steve Covino

Danny G
I like Jermaine Dupree's disposable income.
Steve Covino
Dude, you got to give us the stats on this. There's a story about Jermaine Dupree and the money he spends.
Danny G
Yeah, he just told this to Angela Yee recently.
Steve Covino
Oh, we used to share an office with Angela Yee for years in New York City. True story.
Danny G
He revealed to her that he spent $10,000 every Monday for 20 years straight at Magic City.
Dan Byer
Oh my God. That's a lot of lemon pepper wings and lap dances.
Steve Covino
So if you do the math, how much is that? So I did the math, yeah. 10. 10 grand every Monday, Right. Let's say he took off like the weekend of Christmas Monday or whatever. Yeah, let's say he did 50.
Dan Byer
I mean he is a family man.
Steve Covino
Family man. 52 weeks in a year.
Dan Byer
Whatever.
Steve Covino
Something like that. Let's say 50. So I did the math. 10,000 times 50 times 20 and that came out to $10 million.
Dan Byer
What?
Steve Covino
Man, that's a lot of lap dudes. That's a lot of cheeks, man. He made a lot of strippers, Rich. That's insane.

All right. Hey, we're going to play a game in a second. I just want to tell Kavina one fun fact. The Mets Yankees had their subway series like a week ago, no more. And then would you believe that I. You know, I always tell you how the SNY broadcast is like, top notch, always Emmy award winning.
Steve Covino
I mean, I got nothing bad to say about sny. We were on their network for a few years.
Dan Byer
Yeah. But they're. They're broadcast from the camera work to the announcing. They always get. You know, they win the awards every year. I was shocked by this because you would assume more Yankee fans would watch on the yes. Network. SNY was drawing 70% more viewers than yes during that weekend series.
Steve Covino
Wow.
Dan Byer
70% more people chose to watch on SNY than you. Yes.
Steve Covino
Network. Michael K. Is not happy about that.
Dan Byer
He's very unhappy.
Steve Covino
Yeah. I would imagine he's 70. I know that's significant.
Dan Byer
Gary, Keith and Ron are good, but 70% better. Geez. All right, let's do this. Is it a Chipotle worker or a WNBA player?
Danny G
Are you gonna get a Marie Brown jersey?
Steve Covino
Does she play in the wnba?
Dan Byer

Rich Davis
Guys, Tank Davis got arrested this morning. The WBA lightweight champion arrested in Miami beach on a battery charge following an alleged domestic dispute with his ex girlfriend that took place last month. So on your radar there for boxing. It was also earlier this morning that there was semifinal play at the All England Club gentleman singles at Wimbledon. Top seed Jannik Sinner rolled past Novak Djokovic, who seemed to be hampered by injury. As Sinner ends up winning in straight sets, he'll face Carlos Alcaraz, the two time defending champion. As Alcaraz got past American Taylor Fritz, the fifth seed in four sets. Bears gave GM Ryan Poles a contract extension that goes through the 2029 season. Poles had two years remaining on his contract. ESPN reports the Lakers told Luka Doncic about the ownership sale of the team prior to the news becoming public, but did not extend that same courtesy to LeBron James. As for the Mavericks Lakers game last night in the summer league, 4th highest rated summer league game ever when it comes to television. Center Isaiah Jackson signed a three year deal with $21 million to go back to the Indiana Pacers. Guardians have won four in a row. They topped the White Sox 4 to 2 in Game 1 of a doubleheader in Chicago. Mariners outfielder Julio Rodriguez withdrew from the All Star game on Tuesday, says that he wants to rest up for the second half of the season. So he will not be taking part. So you guys will not be seeing him in Atlanta on Monday or Tuesday. Fellas, back to you.
Steve Covino
Safe travels.
Dan Byer
Dan Buyer, I want you to watch a great golf shot before you head out for the weekend. Did you see Barstool just posted? Charles Barkley made a ridiculous shot.
Rich Davis
Really?
Dan Byer
Not a whole in one, but it was like it was a good 100 yards away. And everyone starts cheering Barkley. It's. It's on barstool right now. But he is known as one of the better former athlete golfers, right?
Rich Davis
No, Barkley was actually mocked because of how bad his swing was, but he's gotten.
Dan Byer
He's gotten a lot better.
Rich Davis
Y.
Steve Covino
Yes.
Dan Byer
I mean, LeBron James got some work to do. Have you seen his swing? They all got some work to do. All right. Thank you, Dan Byer. Have a great weekend.
Steve Covino

Express helps people in all industries find work. The sweet spot. Logistic role. So check it out. Express never charges job seekers a fee. Go to expresspros.com and now it's time for Express Pros Pro of the Week.
Danny G
Gus, my belly.
Steve Covino
The pro of the week was the player. MLB Player of the week. And we were deciding, is it the big dumper? No, it's George Springer. And I say that because he was also snubbed from the All Stars, and he just slayed it with the Yankees. Every time I see him playing, he's leading the Blue Jays. They're in first place right now in the AL East.280 batting average, 16 home runs, 53 RBI again, but not in the All Star Game. So at least we give him props here.
Dan Byer
Don't worry. Cal Riley won your dumper of the week award.
Steve Covino
So he won our dumper of the week.
Dan Byer
We always have one of the jettered girls by just a little bit.
Steve Covino
Well, we talked a lot about Cal Raleigh this week. Is he your AL MVP first half of the season. So we were thinking about him, and again, he's continuing to hit bombs. But George Springer had a really great week.
Dan Byer
I mean, I know leading the league in home runs will do this to you, but would you agree that Cal Raleigh is the one name in Major League Baseball that went from, hey, do you know this guy? To household name in baseball? Unless you're an AL guy.
Steve Covino
I think it feels like it happened overnight.
Dan Byer
I know he's been productive. But you're a big baseball player.
Steve Covino
Like three or four really great years, though.
Dan Byer
You're a big baseball fan. I'm talking about the casual baseball fan that doesn't know those type of, you know.
Steve Covino
Yeah. When he's in the same sentence as Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani. Yeah, it feels that way.
Dan Byer
And you know, it sounds ridiculous. The big dump for nickname helps. It really does. It gives him like a Persona.
Steve Covino
But congrats again to George Springer. Even though I'm a Yankees fan, he's your express pros. Pro of the week. And now it's time for weekend hobnobbin living. For the weekend, you're winning bets for talking points. If you get stuck socializing, you ever done anything dangerous? You ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? That is. Dangero brings us weekend hobnobby. Now, next weekend, there's some big fights, but tonight you got Amanda Serrano and Katie Taylor. If you remember those two women that were beaten down on each other, you're like, oh, man. Well, guess what? The trilogy continues tonight on Netflix. Friday night fight live from MSG. Taylor won the first one split decision in 2020 22. And then unanimous decision November 24th. So it's their third fight, Serrano Taylor on Netflix. And then tomorrow night, Berlanga versus Shiraz on the Zone, fighting at 168. But Shiraz is undefeated, I believe with one draw. Berlanga, you guys remember, fought Canelo and fought Pretty well. Berlonga and De La Hoya were really going at it at the press conference. But Berlonga's 23118 knockouts. Again, that's tomorrow night on the Zone. We got over promised episode 100. Our bonus pod celebrated 100 episodes. We talked about the AL MVP and that golf fight that happened this week. And more over promised with Covino and Rich. That's on fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. And I gotta say this, I'm on a History Channel show every Sunday night called Hazardous History with Henry Winkler. They bumped it up an hour, 9pm 8 Central. Look out for your boy on Hazardous History. There's a whole marathon too, on Sunday. History Channel Sunday night.
Dan Byer
Now, there's a show that you're gonna be so angry that you left out. But thank you for leaving for me. It's getting rave reviews. You're all already a fan. Dexter Resurrection.
Steve Covino
Hell, yeah. The new series, 100% on rotten potatoes.
Dan Byer
Where Dexter sneaks away to New York City. It's based out of New York. Neil Patrick Harris is in it. Eric Stonestreet from Modern Family. The cast looks awesome. And Michael C. Hall is back as Dexter. I thought the prequel series was awesome. They're saying this unreal.
Steve Covino
You keep going back to the well with his character and this. The critics love it. That says a lot.
Dan Byer
Yeah. So Dexter is out this weekend. You can watch that. I keep telling you guys, you would think I work for Apple tv. I don't stick with Owen Wilson because you guys are so hung up on Love island, which I get. And I get it. There's baseball being played. But stick. It's about golf. It's Marc Maron, Owen Wilson, and it's a half hour episodes and there's eight now. And I think he could binge it quick. And you love it. It really is a likable, fun show. Golf. Golf.
Danny G
Was that mentioned $50 or $100?
Dan Byer
Stick Dexter. Love Island. I'm in on with you knuckleheads. I'm gonna watch that with the wife.
Danny G
Oh. Finale of that on Sunday night.
Dan Byer
And Danny G, you gave us the heads up on this. Quarterback is back.
Danny G
Yes, sir. Season 2 of Quarterback Joe Burrow. Jared Goff and Kirk Cousins lead the charge. And I left the first episode really feeling like Jared Goff is so likable after seeing him and his girlfriend.
Steve Covino
Yeah, I'm gonna watch that anyway. But you're really selling me on that, Danny G. I'll. I'll be doing that this weekend.
Danny G
Yeah, that's great. And then an old Rivalry renewed the Dodgers at the Giants starting this evening. And the Dodgers got us. They have to win to stop the bleeding right now.
Steve Covino
Yeah. Hello. Is anyone gonna mention Superman?
Dan Byer
Yeah. That is the big one.
Steve Covino
I'm gonna go watch the Mexican version. Cheaper tickets. El Supermano.
Danny G
I was at our local mall mall yesterday evening and there were a whole bunch of nerds wearing Superman costumes walking into the theater.
Dan Byer
You know what? It's gonna make $150 million, they're saying. I will say this, though. Go Padres. I'm sorry, Danny, because they're playing the Phillies. And go Mets. I want to go into the All Star break even with the Phils or not. So let's go Mets. Have a great weekend. We'll see you Monday live from Atlanta. Arriba. Dare Chi, baby.
Steve Covino

Podcast Summary: The Dan Patrick Show – "C&R - Gloves, Autographs, Chipotle, Superman"
Release Date: July 12, 2025
The episode kicks off with the hosts discussing the upcoming MLB All-Star Game in Atlanta. Steve Covino emphasizes the significance of San Diego joining Major League Soccer, stating, “San Diego coming to MLS is gonna be a game changer because this region has been hungry for a men's professional soccer team” (00:48). The conversation then shifts to the memorable glove giveaway event at last year's Home Run Derby, where a fan was injured by a ball, leading to a poignant moment. Dan Byer reflects on the incident, saying, “We saw blood immediately come out of his face... a rocket, right to this guy” (05:21), highlighting the dangers of fan interactions during high-energy events.
A significant portion of the episode delves into the controversial incident involving NFL star Aaron Rodgers and his refusal to sign autographs for an overly persistent fan. Steve Covino shares his perspective, “I do believe he may have misread the story here... He walks away” (10:18), suggesting that Rodgers handled the situation as part of managing fan expectations. The hosts discuss the balance athletes must maintain between connecting with genuine fans and dealing with autograph hounds, with Rich Davis pondering, “How much do you think it was him trying to send a message to other people by doing that?” (11:18). This segment raises questions about the evolving nature of fan interactions in the digital age.
In a lively and engaging segment, the hosts introduce a game where they guess whether certain names belong to WNBA players or Chipotle employees. The participants—Steve Covino, Rich Davis, Dan Byer, and Armando—provide their guesses with humorous banter. For instance, when presented with “Jessica Claytor,” Steve confidently answers, “WNBA” (27:55), only to later reveal, “Jessica Claytor is a People Experience Manager for Chipotle in Ohio” (29:22). This playful interaction not only entertains but also highlights the intersection of sports and everyday professions.
The hosts provide a comprehensive roundup of recent sports news:
Boxing: Tank Davis's arrest is discussed, with Rich Davis noting, “Tank Davis got arrested this morning... following an alleged domestic dispute” (34:24).
Tennis: Updates on Wimbledon’s semifinal matches, where Jannik Sinner defeated Novak Djokovic (35:00), setting up a clash with Carlos Alcaraz.
Baseball: Insights into potential MLB trade moves, particularly focusing on Paul Skeens and his possible transfer to teams like the Yankees or Mets. Steve Covino speculates, “I like to think it’s the Yankees. You were saying it’s the Mets” (14:58).
NBA: The Lakers’ internal dynamics are touched upon, especially regarding Luka Doncic and LeBron James informed about ownership changes at different times (34:24).
The episode transitions to entertainment, discussing upcoming shows and movies:
Dexter Resurrection: The hosts express excitement about the new series featuring Michael C. Hall, praising its cast and storyline. Steve Covino remarks, “You keep going back to the well with his character and this. The critics love it” (41:53).
Superman Movie: Anticipation builds around the Superman movie release, with Dan Byer humorously suggesting, “You don’t think Superman?” and Steve quipping about a Mexican version, “Cheaper tickets. El Supermano” (43:03).
Engaging with their audience, the hosts host a live game segment where listeners can participate to win prizes. Armando wins a "Swiggy" water bottle after correctly identifying all the WNBA players, while others receive lighthearted ribbing. Dan Byer announces, “Armando, congratulations. You nailed it” (33:26), fostering a sense of community and interaction among listeners.
As the show wraps up, the hosts offer final thoughts on the sports landscape:
MLB MVP Discussion: Cal Raleigh is highlighted as a standout player, with Steve Covino noting his meteoric rise, “He feels like it happened overnight” (38:35).
Upcoming Fights: Sam Byers previews major boxing events, including Serrano vs. Taylor and Berlanga vs. Shiraz, providing viewers with key fight details (36:00).
Acknowledgments: Dan Byer promotes his appearance on the History Channel's "Hazardous History" and the new Netflix series "Quarterback Joe Burrow," encouraging listeners to tune in (40:00).
Steve Covino on MLS Expansion: “San Diego coming to MLS is gonna be a game changer because this region has been hungry for a men's professional soccer team.” (00:48)
Dan Byer on Gloves Incident: “We saw blood immediately come out of his face... a rocket, right to this guy.” (05:21)
Rich Davis on Autograph Strategy: “How much do you think it was him trying to send a message to other people by doing that?” (11:18)
Steve Covino on WNBA vs. Chipotle Game: “If you want someone's autograph, I want that maybe personalized because I'm never gonna sell it. I don't care about the value. It's the sentimental value.” (07:14)
Dan Byer on Cal Raleigh's Rise: “He feels like it happened overnight.” (38:35)
