Main Discussion Points

1. Strip Club Etiquette: What Do You Tell Your Significant Other?

(Segment Begins ~03:35)

• Discussion kicks off with former NBA player Rajon Rondo’s 40th birthday, where his wife threw a party featuring surprise strippers.
• The crew debates: Should you tell your significant other if you end up at a strip club, especially if it’s unexpected?
• Trust & Communication:
  • Steve and Rich focus on need-to-know versus oversharing with partners:
    • "You think your wife or girlfriend tells you everything? Hell to the nod." – Steve Covino (06:51)
    • “Sometimes information is too much. You're right. You don't want to know.” – Rich Davis (07:03)
  • Experienced listeners call in to share their rules and stories.
• Jealousy Levels:
  • Varying perspectives on women who want proof of behavior ("FaceTime me, show me where you are") versus couples with more relaxed approaches.

Key Themes:

• The "need-to-know basis" in relationships: Partners don’t share every detail, nor should they.
• Omitting details isn't (necessarily) lying; it’s about respect and preventing unnecessary suspicion or jealousy.
• Strip club visits for events like bachelor parties often agreed-upon “hush hush” among guys; honesty sometimes reserved for situations that might go public (e.g., viral photos).

Notable Quotes:

• “If you think they tell you everything, you're out of your mind.” – Steve Covino (15:12)
• “There’s a big difference between having strippers for ambiance at a party, and guys going into full ‘creep mode’ at a strip club.” – Rich Davis (15:20)

---

2. Strip Club Stories & Age Perspective

(Segment Begins ~13:00)

• Rich and Steve reflect on how their views on strip clubs have changed over the years:
  • “When you're in your 40s...there's a creepo sense that pops in.” – Rich Davis (13:36)
  • Both admit they’ve “outgrown” regular strip club outings and now go only for special occasions—with more reluctance.
  • “Sleep is my priority. Sleep, affordability, and safety.” – Steve Covino (13:52)
• Listener Josh from Virginia calls in to say he avoids strip clubs— “You leave there mad.” (17:07)

---

3. Viral Videos, Deepfakes, and Getting ‘Dupped’

(Segment Begins ~31:48)

• The show pivots to a viral video allegedly showing Brewers' pitcher Jacob Mizorowski knocking an apple off a teammate's head with a fastball.
• The guys urge listeners to default to skepticism:
  • “Your automatic default setting should be: fake until proven real.” – Steve Covino (34:23)
• Hilarious recounting of viral video hoaxes that tricked them:
  • Kobe "jumping a car," Tom Brady’s trick shots, Evan Longoria’s ‘catch,’ 'liquid mountaineering,' and more.
  • “Liquid mountaineering. And Covino believed this guy could run on water.” – Rich Davis (36:26)
• Both admit everyone—even themselves—can get fooled by good fakes, but now fact-check relentlessly.

Memorable Listener/Host Moments:

• Discussion of generational divides in detecting fakes—young people spot AI/fake videos faster than older folks.
• “90% of social media now is fake. And that might be the downfall of social media, which might be a good thing.” – Steve Covino (51:49)
• Advice: Use tools like Snopes to verify wild stories or videos.

---

4. Iron Mike Trivia Segment

(Segment Begins ~26:47)

• Mike Tyson (as a guest/character) hosts a sports trivia game with the crew and a listener.
• Fun banter about Tyson’s favorite cereals (“I was a serial killer back when I was little. I ate Captain Crunch all the time.” – “Mike Tyson” 29:23).
• Winner crowned after a lighthearted series of trivia questions about boxing and Tyson’s life.
• “Thank you, Mike!” (31:34)

---

5. Lighter Moments & Pop Culture Picks

• Taco Tuesday jokes, tortilla chip debates, and playful analogies about eating off someone’s plate as a sign of affection.
• Brief shoutouts to Paradise (TV show on Hulu), recent celebrity news, and investment app recommendations.
• “If you want to share more stories of when you were duped by stupid videos...let us know at Covino and Rich.” (47:12)
• “Website? You know what websites are now? Just portals to your social media links.” – Rich Davis (49:45)

[Rich Davis]

I'm watching highlights from today. Yeah, Freddie Freeman just picking up where he left off. I just saw him hit him like just a typical.

[Steve Covino]

You mean he has the same flat top as last year?

[Rich Davis]

A typical left center field double in the gap, Freddy Freeman style.

[Steve Covino]

So good. He's always scooping one out real low.

[Rich Davis]

Going oppo taco and then he does a little dance on second base.

[Steve Covino]

Speaking of t, it's a taco Tuesday and it's national tortilla chip day. So maybe that's why he went apo taco.

[Rich Davis]

Let me ask you more uncontrollable with bread in an Italian restaurant or chips at a Mexican restaurant.

[Steve Covino]

That's a good one. Chips, man, because they're salty and you just keep wanting more and you get another basket.

[Rich Davis]

But think about like a nice.

[Steve Covino]

And people are more willing to give you baskets of chips than baskets of bread.

[Rich Davis]

But think of like more think of like a nice loaf of Italian bread and they bring out like olive oil and some salt.

[Danny Byer]

Rich, you left off the one you're more of a monster with and that's french fries.

[Rich Davis]

I was thinking more like free courtesy. Like, oh, here's an app. Oh, French fries.

[Danny Byer]

Oh, well, they are free for you because you take them off everyone's plates.

[Rich Davis]

Fair point.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. While he's licking his fingers.

[Rich Davis]

So funny. We were at one of our listener events and by the way, nothing makes us happier than meeting all the Great people that listen to Kavin on rich met so many great people. But, you know, I like you. If I'm talking to you and I just start eating your French fries, that's my way of saying.

[Steve Covino]

That's like saying, my dog likes you. He's humping your leg, but it's okay.

[Rich Davis]

He likes my version of humping your leg, eating your French fries.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. How about you don't eat my French. I'd rather you not like me. And get your. Your grubby hands off my.

[Rich Davis]

Speaking of humping legs, we're talking about strippers, right?

[Steve Covino]

Yes, yes, yes. All right, so here's the story. Rando turned 40 over the weekend. And, you know, let's focus on the positives here. His wife threw him a. A great birthday party, Luxury venue, gourmet dining, a list entertainment. And I believe Rondo quoted saying, like, this is why he married latoya. You know, she makes him happy. They get each other.

[Rich Davis]

And you know why? Because there are women, and I'm not saying they're bad women, but there are women that have a little bit more of a jealous streak than others. Where, you know, nowadays, there are women that'll be like, facetime me. Show me where you are.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, that's the embarrassing moment where all the guys at the table have to wave to the phone. Hey, how are you? Yeah, man, I'm just here with my. Here with my buddies. Really? Yeah, yeah. Hold on. Hey, guys, say hi. My wife's on the phone.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, hey, Jessica.

[Steve Covino]

Hey. We're just here eating nachos, you know, being good boys. We're just being, you know, being regular guys, just, you know, drinking seltzer, having chips, man. We have to wave to prove like we're being behaved. But Rondo's wife, on top of the. The big party they had at the club, she had a bunch of strippers come out at 1am now, that's great and fun and grand, right? But I'm saying, what if you were there and you didn't know that you didn't tell your wife or girlfriend ahead of time? Like, you rolled there just thinking you were there to support your buddy. All of a sudden, strippers are there. You have to tell. Can I give you my wife or girlfriend? Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

My real answer.

[Steve Covino]

Or like, because think of it this way. Here's what I want you to think about. You think your wife or girlfriend tells you everything? Hell to the nod.

[Rich Davis]

Can I give you.

[Danny Byer]

You think?

[Steve Covino]

My girlfriend tells me every time she's hit on when she goes to Whole Foods in Her tight yoga pants?

[Rich Davis]

Hell, no.

[Steve Covino]

Because I don't need to hear that. That's. That's how I look at it. I don't need to know that.

[Rich Davis]

I assume that sometimes information is too much. You're right. You don't want to know. Babe, I was at Trader Joe's today, and some guy was, like, relentlessly hitting on me. Yeah, you know, I don't want to hear that.

[Steve Covino]

I don't need to hear that. I assume that, you know.

[Rich Davis]

You know, one of your old co workers slid into my DMs.

[Steve Covino]

What?

[Rich Davis]

Like.

[Steve Covino]

Well, that maybe you're different. Right. So there's. There's certain things that. Yes, you're on a need to know basis, and then there's other things where it's like. I mean, what's the point in bringing that? That's really what you gotta ask yourself.

[Rich Davis]

I think if there's an understanding at a bachelor party, a Vegas weekend, something with the buds, where it's like, all right, no one's. No one's gonna, like, talk about this with their wife or girlfriend, right? Like, hey, it's. You know, It's. It's Doug's 40th. We're all going to Spearmint Rhino. Hush, hush. If everyone. If everyone agrees to the hush, hush.

[Steve Covino]

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait a second. You're saying that the guys have to be in on it together and not tell the wifeys?

[Rich Davis]

Well, because if you go home or if I go home and I'm like, sarah, guess what?

[Steve Covino]

Omitting lying or not.

[Rich Davis]

Well, if it's. If it's a.

[Steve Covino]

Because women always say omitting's lying.

[Rich Davis]

That's. That's silly talk.

[Steve Covino]

That's just what I think.

[Rich Davis]

If. If. If. Let's say all of us here on the show went out for your. Your birthday.

[Steve Covino]

Mm.

[Rich Davis]

And there were strippers there. I think if we all made the agreement, like, yeah, guys, you know, we went out for a nice dinner. We don't need to say then we went there, because it doesn't. Does no good.

[Steve Covino]

I don't know if you could always have that understanding.

[Danny Byer]

Good.

[Steve Covino]

Because there's always a dude that's going to tell their w.

[Danny Byer]

Like Stu telling Melissa in the Hangover.

[Rich Davis]

I was just looking that up. I remember she, like, gives a hard time. She's like, what are you gonna do? What are you gonna need to go to strip club? And she just starts accusing him.

[Steve Covino]

All these things before they even happen. I just look at it this way. It's like, if you're going out, right, let's just say you're going out with your buddies. Yeah. You don't have to say that there were women there, because isn't that understood

[Rich Davis]

Sometimes half this population is women.

[Steve Covino]

That's what I'm saying. Like, do you have to say, hey, just. You know, just to clear my. Like, how guilty are you on the witness protection program?

[Rich Davis]

My wife.

[Steve Covino]

Guilty are you?

[Rich Davis]

My wife and I have to report every little detail. My wife and I have an understanding that we don't really ask each other those things. Like, if I go to Vegas, my wife isn't inquisitive Jones, and you're a blabbermouth.

[Steve Covino]

So it's almost understood you're gonna talk to some hot waitress along the way.

[Rich Davis]

So, to me, what?

[Danny Byer]

But she does ask you how much money you gambled that day, and that makes sense.

[Steve Covino]

And that makes fun of me, but

[Rich Davis]

everything else is about trust.

[Danny Byer]

No, but she trusts you. In Rich's defense, you also make some money off your 16 and 80 numbers.

[Rich Davis]

You play all my roulette numbers. Joe Montana, 16.

[Steve Covino]

No.

[Danny Byer]

It's true, though. I've heard Rich on the phone with his wife on some of our Vegas trips. He's talking about gambling. Never heard you have to answer about females.

[Rich Davis]

No, I. You know, she'll just be like, how you doing? Because she knows my mood is dictated by how I do on the tables. But I think asking about, hey, did you go to the strip club? If I did, she what? What does she want to know? She knows I'm not doing anything bad.

[Steve Covino]

I think it's protecting your relationship. Like, is it something they should know before it gets back to them? You know what I mean? Like. Cause you got to keep them in the know and vice versa. So, like Britney Spears says, you never want to be the last to know. So let's say you're out and about. I'm just making this up. Hypothetical. You're out and about, and some drunk hussy falls on your lap. And you're like, hey, you're cute. And she takes a selfie and posts it. Oh, hey, honey, I just want you to know, I was at a party. Some drunk hussy fell on my lap, and she posted it. I don't know who she was.

[Rich Davis]

Like, Dennis Rodman. She fell out of the ceiling.

[Steve Covino]

I don't know who she was or what she wanted from me. But I want you to know, if it does pop up that this happened, like, you got to keep them in the know. I'm all for that, but do you have to tell them everything? Based on Rondo's birthday party. It was. It was a birthday party with surprise strippers, basically. That's, like, kind of the. The gist I got, you know, like, nobody knew. Like, at 1:00am you remember in From Dusk Till dawn, everybody turned into vampires.

[Rich Davis]

Where's that? Could we go there?

[Steve Covino]

When the clock hit one at this party, everybody got naked. All the strippers came out. Hey, by the way, do you remember that story? Remember when we saw a fight at Sapphire? What happened?

[Rich Davis]

Dude, this is the weirdest thing.

[Steve Covino]

This was the weirdest. We went to. We were in Vegas for a big fight. Do you remember what fight it was?

[Rich Davis]

Gennady Golovkin, Canelo Alvarez, the draw.

[Steve Covino]

And the only place that we could go. This is the truth.

[Rich Davis]

Only place, guys.

[Steve Covino]

Only place was a strip club in Vegas.

[Rich Davis]

Only place, guys.

[Steve Covino]

But, dude, do you know during the fight, it was just a venue to watch the fight. Like, there was not no shenanigans.

[Rich Davis]

The minute Michael Buffer's like, will you

[Steve Covino]

go to the scorecards? The music turned on. It was like, here. They all came rushing out.

[Danny Byer]

And then T Pain was on the speakers.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, dude. All the strippers, like, oh, my God.

[Rich Davis]

Like, well, that was. That was a transition. It was. They transitioned quicker back to a strip club than the super bowl halftime show. Clearing the field.

[Steve Covino]

So this was a regular party until 1am and then the whole dance floor was filled with people making it rain and strippers and.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

So based on that, we were like, hey, if you're just there, things like this happen. It makes you wonder, like, you know, what you have to. And what you have to bring up to your significant other just to. To play it safe and be cool.

[Rich Davis]

We talk about this in all aspects. Like, we. You and I always say that.

[Steve Covino]

I'm not one for keeping secrets.

[Danny Byer]

No, I'm not.

[Rich Davis]

I'm not a big keeper. I mean, when I was a younger, dumb guy, maybe. But you and I talk about, like, even purchases. Like, if it's more than 500, you should probably just tell your significant other. Like, yeah, I spent more than, you know. Like, there's got to be, like, respectfully keeping them in the respectful things just to be a, you know, a teammate, essentially. Like, you know, to tie it into sports. Your wife or your girlfriend is your ultimate teammate, so you got to be keeping them in the loop. But I don't think everyone needs to hear every detail of, like. But, hey, babe, you know, it was the Doug's 40th. So we all went to Vegas, and guess what? These two girls were like, Rubbing up all on. I'm like, your wife doesn't need to hear that.

[Steve Covino]

It's just gonna bring up suspicions and jealousy and, like, you don't need to do that sometimes. We're not saying lie to anybody. We're saying there's certain things you need to bring up, certain things you don't cove.

[Danny Byer]

Is there a cutoff age? I know. I think it was Rich on the show before, who said you feel like you've outgrown strip clubs?

[Rich Davis]

I've matured, Danny J. I know that's.

[Danny Byer]

I don't know about that.

[Rich Davis]

Maybe not, but I used to feel like when you would go to an adult establishment, there was a sense of like, oh, these women are like, my age. Oh, that's sort of fun. Like, I'm in my 20s. They're in their 20s. They're just hustling. Hey, good for you. Strippers. When you're in your 40s and you're like, these girls are like, half my age, you feel like you. There's a creepo sense that pops in and you're like, oh, like,

[Steve Covino]

I've graduated from that a long time.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. I mean, I'm not saying I wouldn't go, but I would be more reluctant. I used to be like, yeah, sure. You guys want to roll to the strip club? Sure. Now I'm like, I guess if it's an event, yeah.

[Danny Byer]

But I'm not.

[Rich Davis]

I'm not the guy leading the charge because I do feel like, you know, you're 40 something.

[Steve Covino]

Sleep is my priority. Sleep, affordability and safety.

[Rich Davis]

Not winning.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, not winning.

[Rich Davis]

Safety. Remember we did the experiment on our show? We didn't experiment, Danny. Back in the day, before, we were like clean cut guys here at Fox Sports Radio. Cavino and I did a lot of work with men's brands like Maxim and Playboy and all this type of stuff. I remember one time on our show, we had a stripper in the studio. And do you remember? This is when I was dating my wife. This is how I knew my wife was cool. I was like, we're gonna do a bit. On behalf of all the school's.

[Steve Covino]

Latoya.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, there's Latoya.

[Danny Byer]

Rondo.

[Rich Davis]

Rondo. We did a bit. I was Sam. Where this stripper was giving me a lap dance, and we had to have. My wife had a buzzer, and she had a buzz.

[Steve Covino]

It.

[Rich Davis]

When, like, when did it get, like,

[Danny Byer]

when you got bothered?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, like, honey, if you get bothered, hit the buzzer. And it wasn't until I put my hand on the girl's hip and she's. I was like, I thought she was falling and Sarah was like, she was. No, she wasn't falling.

[Steve Covino]

And when you dipped, she dipped.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. So like, just be appropriate.

[Steve Covino]

Be appropriate. And I think it's like at a need to know basis, not everything needs to be told. And I think it's, you know, from a respectful standpoint of keeping them in a loop. Otherwise every little detail is not necessary. And the way I justify that, again is if you think they tell you everything, you're out of your mind. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

But also, don't you think does a sense of.

[Steve Covino]

They tell you what they need to tell you so that way you don't worry. And you, like Sam said before, you trust them.

[Rich Davis]

Don't you think there's also a difference between when your buddies. I'm being real here. When your buddies are in like creep mode versus, like, hey, strippers for ambiance. You know the difference, right? Like, this is like a big baller event. Like, and they were probably like, yeah, the strippers, like, just to have like good looking women dancing. That's way different than your buddy who's in total, like creep mode. Like, he struck out at the club and he's like, let's go to the strip club. There's a big difference between that and the Rondos. Having strippers at a blowout party, that

[Steve Covino]

was just meant to be fun. I really think that that was just, you know, for the, for the atmosphere.

[Rich Davis]

You've seen that creepy look in your buddy's eyes where he's like, let's go.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, yeah, that's the weird feeling. You seen your buddy like a creep at a strip club.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. That's way different than, hey, it's someone's 40th. We're just having a silly time. I really think there's a big difference.

[Steve Covino]

No, there absolutely is. And the wife did it like, she did it for the fun of it.

[Rich Davis]

So anyway, so that's the story.

[Steve Covino]

Sounds like a real fun time. We're not judging the experience at all. Sounds like they had a blast. It just made us think of if you were there, like, you know, how would you handle that? Would you tell your wife or not? And how do you handle those situations moving forward? Need to know basis. Yeah. You know who wanted to know everything? Marc Anthony.

[Rich Davis]

I need to know. Tell me, baby girl goose.

[Steve Covino]

I need you to know. He wanted to know everything, that guy. All right, so that's our story. And happy birthday to Rondo and happy birthday to Floyd Mayweather 49 on this day.

[Rich Davis]

And don't forget Billy Zane, your pal Danny J. We got some calls. Who we going to?

[Danny Byer]

Let's talk to Josh in Virginia wants to talk to you guys about strippers.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, Josh?

[Steve Covino]

What's up, guys? I'm. I am happily married. Don't ask.

[Danny Byer]

I'm glad my wife ain't listening, man.

[Steve Covino]

Cause I don't know. It's seven, eight years. We've been together for like 12. Okay, I'm gonna tell you now. I've never been a strip club guy. I've been like three times. That is aggravating. You leave there mad.

[Rich Davis]

I can see you're saying a big

[Steve Covino]

strip club guy either. It's just, you know, certain parties after party, you end up there, you know, And. And if you're in Vegas, your buddies might be going. Like, if you were.

[Rich Davis]

If you were the group of friends.

[Steve Covino]

I'll try to avoid it. Nowadays, I will.

[Rich Davis]

If you're. If you're with a group of friends, Vegas, Atlantic City. When you're a younger man, it's like, you know, John's birthday weekend. We're all going. You're not going to sit it out, but.

[Steve Covino]

Right.

[Rich Davis]

You know, I get it. And I know there are people that have that belief of, like, why go. Like, you just leave frustrated. Yeah, I get it. I understand this.

[Steve Covino]

Anyone else?

[Danny Byer]

Danny G. Brad in North Carolina wants to take it back to last hour about ticket prices.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, Brad.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, guys, listen, appreciate it.

[Danny Byer]

I would like to piggyback real quick on the whole strip club thing. I've been married 20 years and year two of our marriage, I went to bachelor party for my best friend. I told my wife, look, babe, I'm going to a strip club. I didn't do anything. We hung out, had a good time. When I got home that night, she had candles lit and then the most sexy nighting I'd ever seen in my life. And it was the night of a life.

[Steve Covino]

Oh.

[Rich Davis]

So it motivates her a little bit.

[Steve Covino]

You know what the great compromise is sometimes? The great compromise is this. Sometimes if you're in a healthy, trusting relationship, but your wife knows you're going to do stupid things at a bachelor party or whatever, you're going to go, you got to support your buddies and you don't want to be the lame O. That doesn't go right. Yeah, I think the compromise is I'm going. And they'll be like, don't get any lap dances. And you say, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. And that's it. Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

You say, yeah, yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Go ahead, man. What else you got?

[Rich Davis]

Say yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, just to jump back to the

[Danny Byer]

ticket prices, you know, I wanted to bounce this off of you guys. The lower your winning percentage, the lower you get to charge for ticket prices.

[Steve Covino]

The higher your winning percentage, the higher

[Danny Byer]

you get to charge.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, I mean, I think that fixes itself, but you're right, it should. And there's teams that will historically be expensive. Just go to the venue. Like even if the Yankees or Cubs or Red Sox stunk, it's still Fenway, Yankee Stadium, Wrigley. But I agree. I think you're going to naturally see the crappier teams have lower ticket sales. And by the way, to tie it all together.

[Steve Covino]

It makes you realize though that the Angels are so content where they are because that way they don't have to raise ticket prices because their business model is the family stuff.

[Rich Davis]

To tie it all together, because you're thinking, how could I? Well, I found the way. The price of a Dodger dog, the price of tickets, the price of everything has skyrocketed. Yet lap dances and Arizona iced tea are consistently around $20.

[Steve Covino]

And Arizona iced tea still Arizona iced a can.

[Rich Davis]

Arizona iced tea and lap dances. Don't ask me why.

[Danny Byer]

Yeah, but the length of those songs keep getting shorter and shorter.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, that's what it is.

[Rich Davis]

Like 30 second remixes. You're on song five.

[Steve Covino]

What? Yeah, like little tick tock songs.

[Danny Byer]

Two for one, two for one.

[Rich Davis]

Yes.

[Danny Byer]

Song was 20 seconds.

[Steve Covino]

30 seconds.

[Rich Davis]

They played tick tock videos.

[Steve Covino]

TikTok video.

[Rich Davis]

Song $20 per tick tock video. All right, thank you guys for the feedback. You know, we're gonna do next, we're gonna give away some prizes. Why the hell not, right? Showtime. Not showtime, homes.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

What if mind control is real?

[Danny Byer]

If you could control the behavior of

[Steve Covino]

anybody around you, what kind of life would you have?

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you hypnotically persuade someone to buy a car?

[Steve Covino]

When you look at your car, you're

[Rich Davis]

going to become overwhelmed with such good feelings.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you hypnotize someone into sleeping with you?

[Danny Byer]

I gave her some suggestions to be sexually aroused.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you get someone to join your cult? NLP was used on me to access my subconscious. Nlp, AKA Neuro Linguistic programming, is a blend of hypnosis, linguistics and psychology. Fans say it's like finally getting a user manual for your brain. Brain.

[Danny Byer]

It's about engineering consciousness.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Mind Games is the story of nlp, its crazy cast of disciples, and the fake doctor who invented it at a new age commune and sold it to guys in suits. He stood trial for murder and got acquitted. The biggest mind game of all, nlp, might actually work.

[Danny Byer]

This is wild.

[Danny Byer]

China's Ministry of State Security is one of the most mysterious and powerful spy agencies in the world. But in 2017, the FBI got inside. This is Special Agent Regal.

[Steve Covino]

Special Agent Bradley Hall. This MSS officer has no idea the US government is onto him. But the FBI has his chats, texts, emails, even his personal diary. Hear how they got it on the Sixth Bureau podcast?

[Rich Davis]

I now have several terabytes of an MSS officer. No doubt, no question of his life.

[Danny Byer]

And that's the unicorn.

[Steve Covino]

No one had ever seen anything like that. It was unbelievable.

[Danny Byer]

This is a story of the inner workings of the MSS and how one man's ambition and mistakes opened its vault of secrets.

[Steve Covino]

Listen to the 6th Bureau on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief.

[Steve Covino]

The nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict. A villain, a nurse named Lucy Letby.

[Steve Covino]

Lucy Letby has been found guilty.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

But what if we didn't get the whole story?

[Danny Byer]

The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

I'm Amanda Knox, and in the new podcast the Case of Lucy Letby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it. To ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Letby was. No voice of any skepticism or doubt.

[Steve Covino]

It'll cause so much harm at every

[Danny Byer]

single level of the British establishment of this is wrong.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Listen to Doubt the Case of Lucy Letby on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Nancy Glass, host of the Burden of Guilt season two podcast. This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumprite became the victim of a random crime.

[Steve Covino]

He pulls the gun, tells me to lie down on the ground.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

He identified Jermaine Hudson as the perpetrator. Jermaine was sentenced to 99 years.

[Danny Byer]

I'm like, lord, this can't be real.

[Rich Davis]

I thought it was a mistaken identity.

[Steve Covino]

The best lie is partial truth.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

For 22 years, only two people knew the truth. Until a confession changed everything.

[Steve Covino]

I was a monster.

[Rich Davis]

Have you seen not to be a Debbie Downer, but have you seen that beautiful yet heartbreaking video of Eric Dane's video for his two daughters? Yes, if you want to be inspired, but at the same time, guaranteed, cry a little bit. Oh, man, that was tough to get through. Man, ALS is awful. I mean, it's the worst.

[Danny Byer]

All right, walking into the main studio is our security along with Iron Mike, our broke Mike. Iron Mike, how you doing, buddy?

[Rich Davis]

What's up, bud?

[Steve Covino]

What's up, guys?

[Rich Davis]

Hey, man.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, it's good to be back.

[Rich Davis]

Guys.

[Steve Covino]

I want to say happy birthday to my opponent, Floyd Mayweather's 49 today.

[Danny Byer]

I was just going to say big week for you in the news.

[Steve Covino]

A big week. But it's a little anticlimactic, a little self aggrandizing for Mayweather to announce another fight when ours hasn't even happened yet.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, I almost feel like he's looking past you, Mike.

[Steve Covino]

He is. It's an exhibition, but I'm going for the knockout. I want to remind everybody I'm fighting Floyd Mayweather, April 25 in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Democratic Republic of Congo.

[Danny Byer]

Thank you for the plug. Let's meet the contestants. 25, 25 time winner, Rich Davis right over there.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, Mike?

[Steve Covino]

Hey, guys.

[Danny Byer]

18 time champion Dan Byer in the house.

[Steve Covino]

Hello, Dan Byer, the wonderful, wonderful champion.

[Danny Byer]

Thanks, Mike. And looking to win a CNR prize pack on our studio line, it is Mark in Syracuse.

[Rich Davis]

What's up, Q?

[Danny Byer]

Hey, guys, how you doing?

[Steve Covino]

Hey, Mark, how'd you like my butt cheeks? Last time I fought on Netflix, they were amazing, Mike.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you.

[Danny Byer]

Mark, what do you do for a living there? Currently, I'm just doing the gay door dash thing.

[Rich Davis]

Nice, man. Doordashing. A lot of dinosaur barbecue, I bet.

[Danny Byer]

For sure. All right.

[Rich Davis]

Once in a while.

[Steve Covino]

Yep.

[Danny Byer]

Here are the rules for Iron Mike Trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is the champion. If there's a tie, we have a tiebreaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do have to wait until all three possible answers are read. If there's two wrong answers in a row, we move on to the next question. Are you ready?

[Rich Davis]

Let's go.

[Steve Covino]

Let's get it on. All right, guys, it's Mike Tyson and we know it's good to be here. Guys, when recently discussing my super bowl ad about taking care of your body, I admitted to eating two bowls of what back in the day for breakfast? A, Captain Crunch, B, Froot Loops or C, Frosted Flakes?

[Rich Davis]

Ooh, Rich,

[Steve Covino]

give it to Mark.

[Danny Byer]

Ty goes to the call.

[Rich Davis]

Mark. What do you got, Mark?

[Danny Byer]

B, B, Froot loops. No, Rich for the steel.

[Rich Davis]

I feel like, Mike, you're a Captain Crunch type of guy.

[Steve Covino]

Yes. Oh, yeah, I love Captain Crunch. I was a serial killer back when I was little. I eat Captain Crunch all the time. The Crunch berries and the soggies. I loved all the Captain Crunch.

[Danny Byer]

All right, Rich on the board as we move to round two.

[Rich Davis]

Look at Mike, all fired up.

[Steve Covino]

I love cereal. Round two. I once famously said, what about my actions? A, I didn't do it, my neighborhood is the culprit. B, blame my birds. I see them swoop down on smaller creatures that follow their lead. I love my pigeons. Or C, I just look around and say, I'm a mess. I don't know why I do things.

[Danny Byer]

Mark. Mark C. C is correct.

[Steve Covino]

I'm a mess. Yeah, absolutely right.

[Danny Byer]

Yes.

[Steve Covino]

I'm a man. I don't know why I do anything. I don't even know why I come on this show.

[Danny Byer]

Mark is. Mark is halfway to a prize as we go to round three.

[Steve Covino]

There you go, round three. I don't know if Floyd Mayweather gonna make it past round three.

[Rich Davis]

That'd be fun.

[Steve Covino]

I love the middleweight division because you could see the sweet science of boxing. Which of these middleweight champions had the highest knockout percentage? Was it A, Marvelous Marvin Hagler, B, Sugar Ray Robinson, or C, Bernard Hopkins?

[Danny Byer]

Ah, they're giving you a beat there, Mark.

[Steve Covino]

Highest knockout percentage for middleweights, Rich.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, Mark, go ahead. I'm giving you an opportunity. It's multiple choice. Guess, Mark. Yeah, I'm gonna go with a.

[Steve Covino]

Marvelous Marvin Hagler. Had a.788 KO percentage. He was an absolute beast in the ring and he was a wonderful, wonderful man.

[Danny Byer]

I feel like Rich deserves half the price back.

[Rich Davis]

I know, Mark, because you're a Syracuse guy and I went there. I was giving you a little leeway, but hey, congratulations, brother.

[Danny Byer]

That was the golden age of middleweights

[Rich Davis]

right there and turns. And that was the N.H. hey, Mark,

[Steve Covino]

I'll see you in the Congo.

[Rich Davis]

You know what? I. Yeah, I would have got it wrong anyway.

[Steve Covino]

Play some Congo bongo.

[Rich Davis]

I'll be honest with you, I was going to guess Bhop. I thought Bhop might be the answer there.

[Steve Covino]

So, Mark Alien, now it's Marvin Hagler.

[Rich Davis]

All right, all right.

[Steve Covino]

You know what?

[Rich Davis]

Thank you, Mike.

[Steve Covino]

All right, guys, remember April 25th against Floyd Mayweather. Happy birthday, Floyd. Hey, guys, have a great Tuesday.

[Danny Byer]

Bye now.

[Steve Covino]

Enjoy some tacos.

[Danny Byer]

Bye, Mike.

[Steve Covino]

Later. Thank you, Dan. Byer. Later. Love you guys. Hey, Iowa. Fame. I'll see you tonight at the strip club.

[Danny Byer]

Sure.

[Rich Davis]

I'LL be there. Oh, Iron Mike trivia right here on cnr. You know what I want to bring up before we go to Dan Byers update, I wanted to, I want to talk about this viral video that went around today. And I feel like, I think I'm safe in saying within the last 10 years, AI videos and deep fakes and photoshops went from tricking your boomer parents to now even younger people, middle aged or even people younger than us, 20s and 30s, probably have to do a little second look at things. Where is that true? Whether it's a trick shot or like one of those dude perfect things or.

[Steve Covino]

I remember a sports video that had everybody fooled.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, was it with Tom Brady throwing the football into the machine?

[Steve Covino]

Everybody believed that.

[Danny Byer]

Yes. Let me take you back further. How about Kobe jumping over that speeding sports car?

[Rich Davis]

I believe that.

[Danny Byer]

I did.

[Rich Davis]

But, you know, my mom believes, see, that the difference is those things might seem a little believable. Do you remember the video of the dude that like, climbed the outfield wall like Spider Man?

[Steve Covino]

Yes.

[Rich Davis]

My mom's like, richie, did you see this guy? And I'm like, mom, you know what

[Steve Covino]

else made the rounds too? There's always this video of this mixed martial art guy who gets in there like a video game character. And he's fighting in this like underground fight club looking sort of setting. He's doing all these flips and cool moves. And then he gets like, like he gets. I think he gets knocked out like one punch or something. Something strange happens. But I remember it like being a completely viral, like underground fight clip. And I'm like, this is from a movie. This is fake.

[Rich Davis]

I got another fake one that probably got your mom or dad, maybe not you, but you remember the clip where Evan Longoria is being interviewed?

[Danny Byer]

Oh, yeah, that's a great one.

[Rich Davis]

And he catches the ball right in front of the reporter. Saves the reporter, saves the reporter. I remember my mom Rich. My mom sends me these. That's how I know which ones get our parents. But today, Miz Mizarowski on the brewers, who last year, remember the controversy, he got an all star nod as a, as a guy that hardly pitched. But the potential and throwing heat ended

[Steve Covino]

up 5 and 3. Yeah. In 2025 with a 4.3 ERA. The 5 and 3, the 3 losses in the 4 ERA alone makes me say I would never trust this dude to throw a fastball and knock an apple off of my head. Because that's the viral video today. And there is debate on whether or not this is real. And everyone Seems to think it's real. I don't have any proof that it's fake, but my automatic default. And I think that's the lesson here today on the show. Your automatic default settings should be fake until proven real.

[Rich Davis]

And I hate that because sometimes you'll see a remarkable video.

[Steve Covino]

You have to reset the default setting.

[Rich Davis]

And the comments are like, fake. AI fake. And you're like, I don't know if it is.

[Steve Covino]

I don't know who's sitting there by home plate, but I imagine a teammate. I don't know who that is, though. He's just wearing a Brewer's T shirt, I think, and he's sitting there facing the camera with an apple on his head while Miz Jacob Mizorowski throws high heat, knocking the apple, crushing the apple off this guy's head. People are spreading this around like it's a real video. And no one's sending this leading with, this is fake. And I'm here to say, based on nothing, based on my default setting, that this is fake. Stop. And what are some other times you were genuinely duped? Because chances are you're not alone. And we were probably do. We've put it this way, we've all been duped. Rich. Yo, Rich. I can't even believe this Bonehead came to me one time. He goes. He goes. And I got a. I got a worse story. Believe me. I'm embarrassing myself. But Rich came in, he goes, did you see the video of the guy hang gliding? And the lightning hits him on the hang glider and it goes on fire. And I'm like, what are you talking about? He shows me this video. Some Indian guy on a hang glider, and he's hit by lightning. And it starts to go into the.

[Rich Davis]

And it just goes like, ah, bro.

[Steve Covino]

It's the fakest thing I've ever seen. And I'm like, how did you think this was? Even for a second think this was real? But at the time, he thought it was real.

[Rich Davis]

Well, you know what?

[Steve Covino]

Fool me once. Shame on.

[Rich Davis]

Shame on.

[Steve Covino]

Shame on you. It fooled me.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

We can't get fooled again.

[Rich Davis]

A classic Kavino story. A classic Covino story.

[Steve Covino]

I shouldn't be talking.

[Rich Davis]

As we get to Dan Byers update in a second. A classic Covino story. You'll love this, DB There was a video that Covino passed around to us, and he's like, guys, this is unbelievable. Can you believe? Can you believe?

[Steve Covino]

How is this not headline news?

[Rich Davis]

This is technology, and it's fine.

[Steve Covino]

There was a story. I believe the story was. There was A study. It was called Liquid Mountaineering. Is that it? A new. A new sport.

[Rich Davis]

Liquid mountaineering. And Covino believed this guy could run on water.

[Steve Covino]

The story was that they invented these shoes that allowed you with the right amount of acceleration if you. If you ran at a certain amount of speed.

[Rich Davis]

This guy ran across a lake, and we're like.

[Steve Covino]

But this was, like, a while back, so I was like, this is real, right?

[Rich Davis]

Liquid mountaineering.

[Steve Covino]

And then I show. You know, as you show everybody, and they're looking at you like you're an. That's when you start to. I'm just kidding, guys. I think it's fake.

[Rich Davis]

I don't know. By the way, I was looking down on my phone hours ago. I was curious if Miz is eligible for the Rookie of the Year this year, and he's not. He pitched just a little bit more, you know, when. That. When. When a. When a rookie pitcher comes up. Yeah, and sometimes he's eligible.

[Steve Covino]

He's five and three, so I don't know. He had more than eight starts.

[Rich Davis]

Now, as you say, he's not eligible because a lot of times, if a guy gets a couple, essentially a cup of coffee in the bigs and looks good, he could be Rookie of the Year.

[Steve Covino]

There's a limit the next year, but

[Rich Davis]

he just surpassed that limit. So he is not eligible for Rookie of the Year. But DB He's a big part of your brewers, huh?

[Danny Byer]

Yeah. It wasn't a part of the rotation that they had in the postseason, so it was struggling in the second half of the year.

[Steve Covino]

Did you see this video, Dan?

[Danny Byer]

Yes.

[Steve Covino]

And your first thoughts?

[Danny Byer]

It had to be fake. And I even slowed it down. I just did right now. Just, like, bit by bit, just the way that the apple. The way that the apple falls, like, it's just a weird.

[Rich Davis]

You know what it is.

[Steve Covino]

You know how, like, a younger person will watch an old movie and, like, their eyes just. They hate it because their eyes are so crisp and keen on these things. Our eyes are starting to not be able to tell the difference of what's real and what's fake anymore. It's like, younger people could point this out real quick. That's fake. And there's a lot of older people who are just. I don't know. They're not grasping it. They. They can't tell. And when I say old, I don't mean like.

[Rich Davis]

Like, you're 85, you know, older. What we used to say is you could look sneakers and their jean cut and tell how old they are. I think now you could tell how old someone is by being like, hey, tell me if you think this video is real.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. A young person could sniff it and be like, yeah, that's fake as hell.

[Danny Byer]

By the way, there are a couple of reputable web sports websites saying that this is not real.

[Steve Covino]

It's what we assume look at the apple as it. When it's falling and you, you could see it looks fake.

[Rich Davis]

Do you believe all those dude perfect videos? DB have you seen those, like, the guys that do all the trick shots and everything?

[Danny Byer]

I feel like I'm one of eight people who just can't stand that stuff. Like, I mean, those guys are multi, multi billionaires and I just never got into it at all.

[Steve Covino]

Sort of like, dude perfect amusement.

[Danny Byer]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Seriously, it's. It's crazy. I will say this though, with all the AI, nothing makes me laugh harder than when the grandma watches Grand Theft Auto and she thinks it's the news.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, it's the best.

[Danny Byer]

Oh, and she's got that look like, oh, it's like, what's this world coming to? And the silver medal is when people put on Madden and people think it's the real game. Like that one. It's awful because I know we're making fun of maybe the elderly sensibilities, but to just put a simulated game of Madden on and be like, yeah, it's the Patriots. Broncos.

[Rich Davis]

Camino thinks it's fake, but There's a video, DB maybe seen it, where a boomer couple in their 70s is watching the news and their son made a fake news broadcast and the suspect, suspect looks like this and it's the dad.

[Steve Covino]

The thing is, you don't know what to believe anymore. That's why I think the warning here is just assume it's fake until proven otherwise.

[Rich Davis]

All right, well, let's go to Dan for an update. DB, what's happening, my man?

[Danny Byer]

An average of over 20.7 million viewers tuned into NBC and Peacock for Sunday's gold medal hockey game between the US And Canada. The second highest ratings for a hockey game on NBC behind only the gold medal hockey game. Now the US Men's hockey team is in attendance for tonight's State of the Union address after meeting with President Trump in the Oval Office earlier today in the NFL combine getting underway, Dolphins GM John Eric Sullivan admitted the team has had talks with Tua tangovailoa on a variety of options, including a trade out of Miami Falcons will release quarterback Kirk Cousins on the first day of the new league year. Atlanta also officially used the franchise tag on tight end Kyle Pitts.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

what if mind control is real?

[Danny Byer]

If you could control the behavior of

[Steve Covino]

anybody around you, what kind of life would you have?

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you hypnotically persuade someone?

[Danny Byer]

Car when you look at your car,

[Rich Davis]

you're going to become overwhelmed with such good feelings.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you hypnotize someone into sleeping with you?

[Danny Byer]

I gave her some suggestions to be sexually aroused.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Can you get someone to join your cult? NLP was used on me to access my subconscious. Nlp, AKA Neuro linguistic programming, is a blend of hypnosis, linguistics and psychology. Fans say it's like finally getting a user manual for your brain.

[Danny Byer]

It's about engineering consciousness.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Mind Games is the story of nlp, its crazy cast of disciples, and the fake doctor who invented it at a New Age commune and sold it to guys in suits. He stood trial for murder and got acquitted. The biggest mind game of all, nlp, might actually work.

[Danny Byer]

This is wild.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Listen to Mind Games on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. In 2023, a story gripped the UK, evoking horror and disbelief.

[Steve Covino]

The nurse who should have been in charge of caring for tiny babies is now the most prolific child killer in modern British history.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Everyone thought they knew how it ended. A verdict? A villain. A nurse named Lucy Letby.

[Steve Covino]

Lucy Lucy Letby has been found guilty.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

But what if we didn't get the whole story?

[Danny Byer]

The moment you look at the whole picture, the case collapses.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

I'm Amanda Knox and in the new podcast the Case of Lucy Letby, we follow the evidence and hear from the people that lived it to ask what really happened when the world decided who Lucy Letby was. No voicing of any skepticism or doubt

[Steve Covino]

it'll cause some much harm at every

[Danny Byer]

single level of the British establishment of this is wrong.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Listen to Doubt the Case of Lucy letby on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Danny Byer]

China's Ministry of State Security is one of the most mysterious and powerful spy agencies in the world. But in 2017, the FBI got inside. This is Special Agent Regal, Special Agent Bradley Hall.

[Steve Covino]

This MSS officer has no idea the US Government is onto him. But the FBI has his chats, texts, emails, even his personal diary. Hear how they got it on the Sixth Bureau podcast.

[Rich Davis]

I now have several terabytes of an MSS officer. No doubt, no question of his life.

[Danny Byer]

And that's a unicorn.

[Steve Covino]

No one had ever seen anything like that. It was was unbelievable.

[Danny Byer]

This is a story of the inner workings of the MSS and how one man's ambition and mistakes opened its vault of secrets.

I'm Nancy Glass, host of the Burden of Guilt season two podcast. This is a story about a horrendous lie that destroyed two families. Late one night, Bobby Gumprite became the victim of a random crime.

[Steve Covino]

He pulls the gun, tells me to lie down on the ground.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

He identified Jermaine Hudson as the perpetrator. Jermaine was sentenced to 99 years.

[Danny Byer]

I'm like, lord, this can't be real.

[Rich Davis]

I thought it was a mistaken identity.

[Steve Covino]

The best lie is partial truth.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

For 22 years, only two people knew the truth until a confession changed everything.

[Steve Covino]

I was a monster.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Listen to Burden of guilt season two on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Steve Covino]

[Steve Covino]

I said covinoenrich.com and everything is there. But besides the website that starts with a P. Give me one website you actually go to. Good question.

[Rich Davis]

Anymore website?

[Steve Covino]

Is there any website that you really on the regular.

[Rich Davis]

I go to weather.gov, check the weather,

[Steve Covino]

but you don't have an app for that.

[Rich Davis]

Besides, besides, besides naughty websites, websites. You know, I, I, I booked a flight and I, my phone was in the other room so I went to like kayak.com.

[Steve Covino]

oh, yeah, no, that's a good one.

[Rich Davis]

I booked a flight. I like using.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that's a good one.

[Rich Davis]

Sometimes I don't know why do you know there's certain things that even though you could do it on your phone, it just feels better on a screen.

[Steve Covino]

Bigger, it's more easier to see.

[Amanda Knox / Nancy Glass (Podcast Hosts)]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Like, oh, you know what they, well, are they really the competition? But I do go to espn.com a lot for like strandings and stuff like that. Just quick scores.

[Rich Davis]

I can't tell you I use the

[Steve Covino]

app, but you could use the app, but it's here at work. I'll pull it up real quick. So, yeah, we don't do that a whole lot, but we do have a website and all of our stuff is there. Website.

[Rich Davis]

You know what websites are now? They're just portals to your social media links.

[Danny Byer]

Right.

[Rich Davis]

It's like you go to a website, it's like, here's their YouTube channel, here's their TikTok, here's their Instagram. So I agree. Other than naughty websites, I would say travel sites. So Kayak, Expedia, Hot wire, all the, you know, whatever you use to book your stuff.

[Steve Covino]

There's a viral video today of pitcher five and three, Brewer. Big star last year, Brewer Jacob Mizorowski, throwing some hot heat, had a teammate and it's like target practice. He knocked an apple off the guy's head and it's gone so viral to the point where I think a lot of people think it's real. And at first I did too. People's reaction made me think it was real until I'm like, it's gotta be fake. So just like the old saying of guilty until proven innocent.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Or innocent until proven guilty. You gotta switch it Around. It's fake until proven otherwise.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, I hate it because you don't want to be like, you don't want to assume like that's lame and fake.

[Steve Covino]

Reset your default. Yeah, unfortunately, everything's fake moving forward until proven otherwise.

[Danny Byer]

There was one or two times where our show got burned on something through the years. And after that I was like, I'm going to assume everything is fake until we check three other sources.

[Steve Covino]

And speaking of websites, Snopes would be where you go to verify.

[Rich Davis]

I'll tell you where so many people got duped within the last week at the super bowl shows on this network, including ours. At first we're like, wait, that five year old little kid that bad bunny was with? That's the, that's the kid that. Oh, the halftime kid that was detained by ice. And then everyone ran with that and like a couple hours later it's like, no, that's a completely made up thing. We get tricked all the time on

[Steve Covino]

social media, so don't be a sucker. Hope that helps.

[Rich Davis]

And by the way, if the, if the link someone sends you says San Francisco Chronicle, just know that you're gonna see wood sitting on the end of the bed.

[Danny Byer]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

And Sam was saying he was duped by a bunch of animals on a trampoline.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Like the rabbits and the, the deer. And it was like a night vision. No, it's real. Like, no, it's not.

[Rich Davis]

What's your favorite monkey's name? Punch the monster monkey. Have you seen someone do AI of him getting revenge and beating up all the other monkeys?

[Steve Covino]

That's fake. As much as you want it to be real. Yeah. As much as you want some of these things to be real. 90% of social media now is fake. And that might be the downfall of social media, which might be a good thing.

[Rich Davis]

Who knows? I listen. Have a great night. I said paradise is back. And that's a great watch so far, Danny. Maybe we'll talk about it later. You and I, we'll talk more NFL

[Steve Covino]

tomorrow plus midweek major. Perfect.

[Rich Davis]

Evidence has been made to fit.

[Danny Byer]

The moment you look at the whole

picture, the case collapsed.
