Tone & Style

The show hits a high-energy, locker-room tone with playful debates, inside jokes, and pop culture asides. The camaraderie is palpable—banter is fast, irreverent, and witty, especially around risqué topics (“wood”) and NFL-fan stereotypes, yet always loops back to authoritative sports talk.

[Steve Covino]

We're going to do the big TV game of the week in just a second.

[Rich Davis]

And I know you're dying to talk.

[Steve Covino]

About Taylor Swift as I live the life of a showboy. Yeah, I did listened to the new Taylor Swift album with my wife this morning and we were Both.

[Rich Davis]

You didn't have to stay with your wife. I know, I know. You didn't have to drag her. Yeah, you didn't have to.

[Steve Covino]

Well, that's not my. That's not my, like, weird cover up. Like, it was my wife. I. I like Taylor Swift and I like music enough to listen to an album that I know everyone was talking about. So I like to be in the loop, guys.

[Rich Davis]

Sorry, Sorry.

[Steve Covino]

If you want to bury your head like an old fool, never ever do.

[Rich Davis]

You come in and say, yo, man, it's new album Friday and I'm checking out this. It's Taylor Swift and that's why you listen.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, of course.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. But don't act like you're in on all the new music. If I told you, hey, dude, new Incubus comes out later this month.

[Steve Covino]

You.

[Rich Davis]

Exactly. So don't have to be care.

[Steve Covino]

No one's going to be talking about it that day.

[Danny G]

I love incubus.

[Steve Covino]

I work in sports radio and talk radio and music and all that stuff.

[Rich Davis]

You're acting like you're not a Swiftie.

[Steve Covino]

You just heard.

[Rich Davis]

You're the biggest Swifty I know. You just heard two of your co workers that you see on a Friday.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Say that they will listen to the new Incubus album, but you won't listen to it. But no one else here in this studio has listened to Taylor Swift. I heard some of the songs because one of them is apparently about Travis Kelsey's penis. And I'm not even making that up. Oh, you mean wood. Yeah, it's called wood. I'm sorry, Big giant redwood.

[Steve Covino]

Redwood. Well, it's not a song about the black dude that sits on the end of the bed. That guy.

[Rich Davis]

Remember that guy Wood during COVID Barry Wood.

[Steve Covino]

Maybe it is, but I'm just saying.

[Rich Davis]

By the way, I'm not making that up. I want to make sure that the Fox Sports Radio Nation understands that I'm not just making a cheap joke.

[Danny G]

I saw a clip where she says it's like knock on wood. It's about super bs.

[Steve Covino]

Hold on.

[Rich Davis]

Of course it's all double entendre and innuendo, but everybody, every major outlet's reporting, that's her raunchiest song yet.

[Steve Covino]

How could you clearly.

[Rich Davis]

About the nether regions of Travis Kelsey.

[Steve Covino]

Nether regions? Who are you, by the way?

[Rich Davis]

How could you have my human resource courses?

[Danny G]

What continent is that on?

[Steve Covino]

Nether regions? I don't think anyone's ever talked about Travis Kelsey's nether regions. It's a great word, but how can you even have this conversation and then not go to me after you call me a Swifty. I listened to the album this morning driving around with my wife. I told you, we had breakfast. We had a nice little morning together.

[Rich Davis]

And.

[Steve Covino]

The Taylor album brings up a conversation. And this is not going to be a Taylor Swift conversation on Fox Sports Radio. But what it is, it's a conversation.

[Rich Davis]

I'd rather talk about Phil Swift, the inventor of Flex Seal, than Taylor Swift. That guy made a canoe out of a screen door.

[Steve Covino]

How about DeAndre Swift?

[Rich Davis]

To me, that's more impressive. Is really impressive. Come on. Have you ever sailed on a screen door, courtesy of Flex Seal?

[Steve Covino]

I mean, that is pretty impressive, but that's not what I want to talk about. But I also don't want to talk about Taylor and Travis. What I do want to ask you is, as a man, as Rocky Balboa would say, as a man.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, as a man. Absolutely.

[Steve Covino]

What is the best compliment you could get from a woman? Because I have my top three, and I want to throw it out there to you guys. These are the top three based on.

[Rich Davis]

The fact that she says he's like, a great lover.

[Steve Covino]

Amazing. Let me read to the lyrics from Taylor's new song.

[Rich Davis]

You mean the song about knocking on wood? Superstitious.

[Danny G]

That's what she said. I'm just quoting her.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, and she's not lying. But it's real. It's innuendo. It's all about his jumps.

[Steve Covino]

And I, I, I, I'm gonna. I feel like she is a pop music wizard. These songs all hit the minute you hear them, you know they're all going to be hit. She's the Michael Jackson of this generation as far as. Stop it.

[Rich Davis]

No, I'm sorry, Sam. That's an argument you don't want to get involved with.

[Danny G]

Sam just moonwalked right now.

[Rich Davis]

I know.

[Steve Covino]

All right, I'm sorry. My correction. I was Sam bigger than Michael Jackson. Whoa. All right, so here's the chorus of Taylor Swift's new song Wood. And I want to point out W o O D. And I want to point out this might make Travis Kelsey, like, probably the most braggadocious dude. He could walk around today knowing that an album was released today with millions and millions and millions and millions of people listening to it. And here's the words. Forgive me. It sounds cocky. He oh, my. And opened my eyes Redwood tree it ain't hard to see his love was the key that opened my thighs oh, it goes more.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Carry on.

[Steve Covino]

Because I'm not gonna carry on. Let me see where your hands are.

[Rich Davis]

He talks about his manhood and everything else.

[Steve Covino]

So she goes to pretty much talk about what a great lover Travis Kelce is. So I made my list, and I want to see if you guys could debate this. When it comes to being complimented as a man, some of them are sincere and nice, and some are not that. Top three. When a woman, especially your wife, or any woman, for that matter, compliments what a great dad you are. When your wife talks about how great you are at the kids, you mean.

[Rich Davis]

Like when they're, like, calling you daddy in the bedroom? Whoa. Is that what you mean?

[Steve Covino]

No.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, okay, continue.

[Steve Covino]

But no, he's the daddy that could, you know, that could even be, like, when other parents, like, you know, talk about, oh, you're great with the kids, if you're coaching or, you know, at the school or something. Of course, compliment that you're a good dad. That's a top three. I think. When a woman compliments how. How lucky she is that you're a great provider, if she, like, talks about, like, you protect our family. You provide for our family, baby.

[Rich Davis]

Gotta hit the streets tonight. Oh, provider, baby. Nerd.

[Steve Covino]

I think compliment that you're a great dad. Compliment that you're a provider, like a man. Like you. You protect the family and you provide for the family. That'll always make a man feel happy.

[Rich Davis]

How about you keep. You make me feel safe.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, safe, your provider. That's it. That you're a great dad was the third one.

[Rich Davis]

Actually, you're two for two.

[Steve Covino]

And the third one has to do with. Yo, are you curling the toes? Are you a good lover? Your manhood?

[Danny G]

You should rock my world, man.

[Steve Covino]

Do you rock her world in the bedroom. If a woman tells you you're a good dad, you're a provider that makes her feel safe, and you get it done in the bedroom. That is the trifecta of what every man wants to hear.

[Rich Davis]

Is rich skipping. How about this one?

[Steve Covino]

And I'm telling you, Travis Kelce today. Travis Kelce today is walk walking around. As if the guy doesn't already have a strut in his step. Multiple Super Bowls, future hall of famer, million $100 million podcast. Now there's a pop song about how he's got a redwood in his pants and he's the greatest dude in the world.

[Rich Davis]

Talented and great at what you do. That's another good compliment.

[Steve Covino]

And by the way. And what is that one, though? And to tie it to Taylor, like.

[Rich Davis]

What he's saying right now, our family.

[Danny G]

Members don't listen to us, though.

[Steve Covino]

But.

[Rich Davis]

No, but there's. There's a trend. I don't know if you ever saw this trend where they're a kid or a wife goes up to an older fellow and they're like, you ever wish you were a good athlete, dude?

[Steve Covino]

I wrote it down because I was gonna say. Well, I was.

[Rich Davis]

I was a pretty good athlete because you hit them in their ego and their pride a little bit.

[Steve Covino]

It's so funny you would say that. I wrote it down because I was gonna say. I said, dad, provider, manhood, essentially. Right. But I also had noted that it's a funny social media trend because what'll really kick a guy in the nuts is when their wife or kids or someone's like, it is a funny trend. It's like, hey, dad, do you ever wish you were athletic? Or a woman goes, honey. And the guy's like, yeah. You ever think what it would be like if you, like, had some athleticism? If you were a good athlete? And every guy is always like, yeah.

[Rich Davis]

It'S like a gut. It's a gut punch.

[Steve Covino]

It's a little.

[Rich Davis]

So if. If on the flip side of that, if they were to compliment your athleticism or, or like I said, whatever you're good at, your profession is. I think that also could be in this conversation.

[Steve Covino]

So think about it again. Not to make it about.

[Rich Davis]

Taylor has the bigger BDE than Travis Kelce today after this song.

[Isaac Loincron]

By the way, did you see this lyric? A little bit after that.

[Steve Covino]

Let's hear it.

[Isaac Loincron]

And I quote, the curse on me was broken by your magic wand. Unquote.

[Steve Covino]

Very, very subtle.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, yeah, it's a David Copperfield reference.

[Danny G]

Maybe she's cheating on him with a baseball player.

[Steve Covino]

Chris Angels in the mix? No, but she's talking about Dumbledore. But I. I think that again, these. These lyrics are why Taylor Swift. These lyrics, why Taylor Swift.

[Rich Davis]

Danny G believes it's about Harry Potter.

[Steve Covino]

It really is. Why Taylor Swift is a pop music. She's a pop music wizard.

[Danny G]

I just wanted you to know how she's trying to sell it.

[Rich Davis]

Of course. You know, but what.

[Steve Covino]

I'm just saying, this is what your.

[Rich Davis]

Your kiddos are listening to.

[Steve Covino]

And you know what? She's a great role mod. She's. I think Taylor Swift has. She's a pop musical wizard. And I just think Taylor Swift make Travis Kelce, makes him feel like the man. And that's the goal, right? Makes him feel like the man.

[Rich Davis]

What if your girl compliments you on how cute you look when you Talk sports with other boys.

[Steve Covino]

That's a good one.

[Isaac Loincron]

Still can't get over that I'm adorable.

[Steve Covino]

What do you want me to tell you?

[Rich Davis]

Adorable Rich Davis. I'm adorable.

[Steve Covino]

I'm like Adrian Adonis.

[Rich Davis]

If there's another one we're leaving off the list that maybe Taylor could add. Maybe she could add another verse for Travis kelce. Let us know. 8 7-799-on Fox. But we can't make him wait any longer.

[Steve Covino]

What's that?

[Rich Davis]

Loincron.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, no, no.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, oh, I'm sorry. Rich Davis is big TV game of the week.

[Steve Covino]

What about Isaac Lone Cron?

[Rich Davis]

I just want to say hi to him. Hi. Hi.

[Isaac Loincron]

Back to you, Isaac Loincron.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, we can't make him wait. Isaac. Go on, go.

[Rich Davis]

What you got?

[Steve Covino]

What you got? Isaac?

[Rich Davis]

More about wine. I met Rich quick.

[Steve Covino]

What is that even I got more.

[Isaac Loincron]

Taylor Swift lyrics about Travis Kelsey.

[Steve Covino]

He was thinking about Taylor. He was thinking about what's in Travis Kelce's pants. And he thought it was 40 after already.

[Rich Davis]

Rich's big TV. Not his big wand. His big TV game of the week.

[Steve Covino]

You should see my set up.

[Isaac Loincron]

I got an extra tv.

[Steve Covino]

The game that I will have.

[Rich Davis]

We should call it Rich's big TV Game of the Week.

[Isaac Loincron]

It's Rich's big TV game of the Week.

[Steve Covino]

Well, well, well. When you're done watching all your baseball playoffs and you're done catching up on all the stuff we're gonna talk about on weekend Hobnob. And there's so much. There's so many great shows that are back, new shows that are streaming a week ago. Danny, we were talking about. There's nothing to watch. There's so much to watch right now.

[Danny G]

You gotta catch up on four different shows.

[Steve Covino]

No doubt. But when it comes to football Sunday, you know how fun that is. We got that early game if you're early like Mr. Furley and you wanna wake up at 6:30 out here on the West Coast. 9:30, not too shabby on the east coast. Vikings, Browns. Not a game that deserves a tv. But it's the only game on. So you'll be checking that out. That's the early game from London. But later in the day, the 10am Games, there's a clear big TV game. It's not the Texans. Ravens though it is going to be interesting to see if the Ravens could somehow win with just Derrick Henry and Cooper Rush managing that game. Like I said, they gotta just keep rolling forward until Lamar's back and then go on a little run. So that's not the game. Giants and Saints. Yeah, you might see. Oh, it's Jackson Dart up to. Cause it's fun, right? That's not what you're watching, though. You're not watching Cowboys, jets, unfortunately, you're certainly not watching Raiders, Colts. Danny, I apologize. You're not watching Dolphins, Panthers. That's a snoozer. There's one game that's so elite in the early set. I mentioned it before and I mentioned it with my waiter this morning. The Broncos, Eagles, Broncos 2, 2. They could very well be 4, 0. If a couple plays went different, that team could be 4, 0. They let that game slip against the Chargers. I remember against the Colts that over the end of the game, field goal. They got called off the missed field goal and then they got another chance. So I love Broncos at Eagles. Eagles uncle. Undefeated. They're 4, 0.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, I don't think this is debatable.

[Steve Covino]

I think the Eagles get their first L. I'm. I'm calling it now. I think the Broncos go into Philadelphia and the Eagles have had everything bounced their way, everything sort of gone the Eagles way. Even against the Rams. Remember the block they were. They were about to lose against the Rams and somehow miraculously won. The Eagles are due for a stinker, and I think this is the stinker against a great coach football team like Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos. So I like that game. I like the Broncos, Eagles and the early slate. I'll throw that on the TCL big screen.

[Rich Davis]

So remember, it's. It's at Philadelphia, though.

[Steve Covino]

So that is, you know, I think all eyes on, you know, Philly's got some big ones this weekend. That and the Dodgers across the street.

[Rich Davis]

Wood, am I right?

[Steve Covino]

All right. Later in the day, Titans, Cardinals, snoozer commander's Chargers. Jaden Daniels is back. That. That'll get a couple looks and we'll see. Do the Chargers try to continue their winning ways in the West? You know, stay ahead of Kansas City.

[Danny G]

They've been holding tryouts for their O line.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, that's depleted.

[Steve Covino]

So that's going to be an interesting one. Lions are going to demolish the Bengals. There's a clear great game in the end of the week as well when it comes to Rich's big TV game of the week. And that's the Bucs. Seahawks.

[Rich Davis]

Baker Mayfield, he's banged up, though.

[Steve Covino]

He's banged up. They're going to Seattle. Seattle's favor by three and a half.

[Danny G]

We're in 1976 uniforms.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, yeah, that's right.

[Steve Covino]

Speaking of. And speaking of getting excited in your pants, Taylor Travis style. Dan Byer loves old school helmets and uniforms. We were texting earlier. Yeah, I don't know if you saw it, Isaac. They're rocking the old school Bucks uniforms and Seattle's rocking like I call them the Steve Largents. Like essentially it's the Steve Largents. What size do you wear? A Largent.

[Danny G]

Sam.

[Steve Covino]

I love you, Sam.

[Danny G]

Play the rim shot on yourself.

[Steve Covino]

Bucs. Seahawks should be a good one. I'll be rooting, I'll be rooting for Baker. Hopefully the Niners could steal a game over the Seahawks.

[Rich Davis]

Jason Swaney, who listens to the show, hit us up and he says when you're talking about it, bring up the fact that the Bills New England game on Sunday night, it's the rivalry game with the special uniforms and they're asking all the fans to dress in white. So it could be cool to see a cool looking visual game. They're calling it the Whiteout game.

[Steve Covino]

They're doing the Whiteout game.

[Rich Davis]

So I'm not saying it's worthy of big TV game of the week, but something fun you might want to check out.

[Steve Covino]

Well, that, well, that's going to get to big TV because it's your Sunday Night football. So Bills, Patriots, all eyes will be on that anyway. And I much like our pal Dan Byer, who's usually here on the regular. We're both really loving these new rivalry jerseys. And if you're a Buffalo fan, even if you're not, those all white, they look like snowy. They got like a snowy vibe to them. And if that whole stadium's white out on a Sunday night, it's going to look pretty dope. They've done that plenty of times in the NBA. So cool to see it in a stadium. So hey, those are your big games. And coming up next, there's another big game. In fact, we're debuting a game here on Cavino and Richard.

[Danny G]

We all have these dry erase boards in front of us right now. It's called Brain Wave. If you'd like to win a CNR Nerf football, call right now. 877-996-6369. And it's a fun multiple choice game. So you're going to have three answers. You're going to try to pick one and match enough of us in the studio to win. We'll explain all of it coming up here. But if you would like to win one of these new turbo style CNR Nerf footballs, call right now.

[Rich Davis]

Turbo balls.

[Danny G]

Yeah, they remind me of the Turbo Nerfs.

[Rich Davis]

Nerf footballs giving them away next.

[Steve Covino]

That's it. By the way, that's another track on Taylor's new album, Turbo Ball.

[Rich Davis]

I heard it's about Kelsey, but I'm not sure. Yeah, all right, so we play it next. We got more Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio.

[Steve Covino]

Ooh, ooh.

[Isaac Loincron]

Do Covino and Rich really share the same brain?

[Steve Covino]

Doris Day, Red, Chatty, Johnny Ray, Joe DiMaggio.

[Isaac Loincron]

Is their crew not far behind? We're one. Welcome to Brainwave.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

Try to make sense of the brain.

[Isaac Loincron]

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

[Rich Davis]

I love that.

[Steve Covino]

On the count of three, reveal Brainwave.

[Danny G]

One, two, three.

[Steve Covino]

Kirk. Wow.

[Danny G]

All right. Happy Friday. If you've been with our show for a while, you know that last one standing actually started from a game that I called prime numbers. And after also evolving synonymous city. I think you're gonna love this new game.

[Steve Covino]

I'm pumped.

[Danny G]

It's all subjective. You just need to try and get on the same brain wavelength as C and R and the crew. All right, we're getting our contestant right now, and then I'll explain how the game works and we'll do a sample question. The first one through was Kev Kevin in Lake City, Michigan.

[Steve Covino]

What's up, Kev?

[Isaac Loincron]

What's going on?

[Steve Covino]

Yo, Kev, let's see if we're on the same wavelength already. Are you? Do you spend a lot of your day thinking about football? Butt cheeks, money, and what else? Pizza and pizza parlays, Far lays. If any of those things, then we might be working here. Let's go.

[Danny G]

All right, here's how it works. We're going to mix it up with three fun categories. Sports, music, and entertainment. I haven't shared these questions with anyone. I'm going to ask them and then give three answers to choose from. The six of us in studio are going to write down our answers on these dry erase boards for our YouTube channel. And that's going to give the contestant time to get their answer ready. Then on the count of three, we hold up our boards and along with the caller, shout out our answers.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Danny G]

Makes sense.

[Rich Davis]

Yep.

[Danny G]

All right, the caller. You, Kev, you got a match with three of us. Three out of the six to win the round. Or no matter your answer, if all six of us happen to match in studio, you automatically get the point. All right.

[Rich Davis]

Got it?

[Danny G]

Yeah. Two different ways to get the point. Contestants need to win two of the five rounds to be the champ and walk away with a CNR nerf football. And you guys plug the YouTube channel really quick so people could tune in.

[Rich Davis]

It's Covino Enrich fsr. If you want to play along at Home, Covino Enrich FSR on YouTube.

[Danny G]

All right, here's a sample question, and get your boards ready.

[Steve Covino]

So this is a sample.

[Danny G]

Yeah, so this is not official yet.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, here we go.

[Danny G]

Which NFL team would be the scariest to face if your team was in a must win situation to stay alive for the playoffs? The Bills, The Eagles, or the Lions? Okay, all of us in studio are writing down our answers on our dry erase boards. While we do that, Kevin, try and get into our brains and imagine how most of us are gonna answer.

[Steve Covino]

Got it?

[Danny G]

All right. All right, I'm gonna write mine down too. Good sound effects. I know.

[Isaac Loincron]

That wasn't my pen.

[Danny G]

All right, you guys all got your answers written down? All right, Kevin, all of us will shout out and reveal our answers on the count of three. Ready?

[Steve Covino]

Yep.

[Danny G]

One, two, three. The Bills.

[Isaac Loincron]

Bills.

[Steve Covino]

Bills.

[Danny G]

Whoa, Kev, what did you say?

[Isaac Loincron]

Lions.

[Danny G]

You said Lions. Who else said Lions?

[Steve Covino]

I said Lions, actually, And look at that.

[Danny G]

No, so he doesn't get the point.

[Steve Covino]

So that would be where he doesn't get the point.

[Danny G]

Exactly. Because look at most of us had the Bills. All right, but not enough of us.

[Steve Covino]

Okay, so we could hear the. The contestant. Danny, why don't we have them shout it out first, and then we all shout out. I mean, you know, it was his.

[Rich Davis]

Dream to host the game.

[Steve Covino]

Honestly, it's still.

[Rich Davis]

Rich is the former host of Nard Sharks, so he has experience in this.

[Danny G]

All right, here we go. Round one. This officially counts.

[Rich Davis]

All right, let's go.

[Danny G]

Speaking of Rich, his team coming off a big win last night, who is the greatest San Francisco 49er of all time? Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, or Steve Young? All right, all of us in studio writing down our answers. Kevin, think of how you think we're gonna answer.

[Steve Covino]

Okay? All right, ready?

[Danny G]

Locked in, everybody. Locked in.

[Steve Covino]

So Kevin will answer first. On the count of three.

[Danny G]

On the count of three. One, two, three.

[Steve Covino]

Jerry Rice.

[Danny G]

Ah.

[Steve Covino]

Jerry Rice.

[Rich Davis]

Joe Montana.

[Danny G]

I got Jerry Rice, too.

[Rich Davis]

I wrote Joe Montana. I wrote Joe Montana. You got enough.

[Steve Covino]

You got enough.

[Danny G]

I got Jerry Rice.

[Steve Covino]

So did I. Oh, Jerry Rice. Three of us.

[Danny G]

Let me see yours. Yeah, he did.

[Steve Covino]

He picks up.

[Rich Davis]

Nice.

[Danny G]

I didn't see Sam's board, so.

[Rich Davis]

So you got it. You got the point, buddy.

[Danny G]

Nice.

[Steve Covino]

Guess we're testing this out. We're all guinea pigs here.

[Rich Davis]

I'm so surprised that you wrote Jerry Rice. I agree he probably is, but I would think most people would go with Joe Montan, I think because of the.

[Danny G]

Longevity, all the records he holds.

[Steve Covino]

Jerry Rice is part of Joe Montana. And Steve Young Super Bowl. He overlaps all of it. Jerry Rice is the greatest football player of all time.

[Rich Davis]

Yes.

[Danny G]

All right, so, Kevin, you're halfway to a CNR Nerf football.

[Rich Davis]

All right, here we go.

[Danny G]

All right, round two. Let's go to music. Which singer in their prime had the most exceptional vocal range? Mariah Carey, Freddie Mercury, or Whitney Houston?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, man.

[Isaac Loincron]

As if.

[Danny G]

All right, Spreader answers down.

[Steve Covino]

I am locked in. Are you guys locked in? I'm locked in.

[Danny G]

I'm locked in.

[Steve Covino]

All right, Kev, on the count of three, give us your answer. Ready?

[Danny G]

One, two, three.

[Isaac Loincron]

Whitney Houston.

[Steve Covino]

I got Whitney Houston.

[Danny G]

I do, too.

[Rich Davis]

Whitney Houston.

[Steve Covino]

Mariah Carey had the best vocal ring.

[Rich Davis]

Agreed. I wrote Mariah Carey even though I don't like her.

[Danny G]

It's all on ilo.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, ilo.

[Danny G]

What do you got?

[Isaac Loincron]

Whitney Houston.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Isaac Loincron]

There we go.

[Steve Covino]

And let me tell you why. Because every time there's something stupid show like Idol or the Voice or any of that, what do they always judge? Oh, oh, you're taking on a Whitney song. Because taking on a Whitney song would insinuate that's the toughest thing to do.

[Danny G]

Right. Let's do another round because we're. Yeah, we're having fun. We're figuring out how to run this game.

[Rich Davis]

So he technically won, though, right?

[Danny G]

Yeah, he did. He's already won in their football.

[Rich Davis]

Kev, thanks for being our guinea pig. You already won. But let's do one more round real quick.

[Isaac Loincron]

Whitney Houston had the best national anthem ever.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Well done. But Mariah Carey had the best vocal range. Yeah, Freddie Mercury was pretty good.

[Danny G]

Five oct octaves.

[Steve Covino]

Mariah Carey could go five octaves. Houston was like a pipe organ, though.

[Danny G]

A big argument about this online, which is why I picked those three. Great topic. Let's go back to sports for our bonus round here. Which fan base is the most annoying?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, this is for a koozie. How about that?

[Steve Covino]

Okay.

[Danny G]

The Lakers, the Yankees, or the Cowboys? Oh, all right, we're going to write our answers down.

[Steve Covino]

I'm locked in.

[Danny G]

I'm locked in, too.

[Rich Davis]

I'm locked in. All right, man.

[Danny G]

All right, you ready, Kev?

[Steve Covino]

I'm ready.

[Danny G]

On the count of three. One, two, three.

[Isaac Loincron]

Cowboys.

[Steve Covino]

Yankees, Yankees.

[Rich Davis]

I had cowboys.

[Danny G]

I wrote cowboys, too.

[Rich Davis]

So that's two. Who else we got?

[Isaac Loincron]

I got cowboys over here.

[Danny G]

Yeah, you're gonna see an ar koozie.

[Rich Davis]

All right.

[Isaac Loincron]

And a redwood tree.

[Steve Covino]

I to close it with an arrow pointing down.

[Rich Davis]

What?

[Danny G]

You want to do one final round?

[Isaac Loincron]

Just promoting the YouTube stream.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Oon wrote I heart boobs he did, actually.

[Steve Covino]

Honestly, Kavino needs glasses. He doesn't realize that Isaac's been writing funny things all time.

[Rich Davis]

I can't even see it.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, get some readers.

[Danny G]

There was a lot of fighting online about this one, guys. We're going to go to Entertainment, which is the top gangster movie of all time.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, that's easy.

[Danny G]

Good fellas. The Godfather or the Departed?

[Rich Davis]

Come on.

[Danny G]

All right, Ilo, it's not as simple as you think.

[Steve Covino]

There we go.

[Isaac Loincron]

Yes, it is.

[Danny G]

All right. I'm writing mine down, too.

[Steve Covino]

All right, all right.

[Danny G]

Kevin, lock your answer in.

[Steve Covino]

Yep. Best gangster movie of all time.

[Rich Davis]

Gangster.

[Steve Covino]

They don't have to be Italian, by the way.

[Danny G]

On the count of three. One, two, three.

[Isaac Loincron]

Good fellas.

[Steve Covino]

Good fellas. Good fellas.

[Rich Davis]

Good fellas. I'm a homer.

[Steve Covino]

Pick. Departed.

[Danny G]

Oh, I wrote the Godfather.

[Isaac Loincron]

It's Godfather.

[Steve Covino]

There's only one wrong answer and the party. Oh, stop. You can be an Irish gangster.

[Rich Davis]

Come on. I said Goodfellas. The Godfather is a movie about a strong Italian family. And by the way, Ray Liotta's from my hometown, so I have to say Goodfellow. So that means he won again.

[Danny G]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Nice.

[Danny G]

So we'll throw in two koozies and Rich, I like the touch with the listener calling out their answer first.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that's. That way we could hear their answer clear, you know?

[Danny G]

So next Friday, we'll have his sealed up. Thank you, Kevin, for being our guinea pig in Lake City, Michigan.

[Rich Davis]

And there goes another winner.

[Steve Covino]

Thanks, guys. You know what I do. I know what I love to do. Danny Spot and, you know, hate when I do this. I like to work things out on the air instead of. Instead of off the air. So I have another thought.

[Rich Davis]

It.

[Steve Covino]

Would it be too tricky without multiple choice, or is it too open ended?

[Danny G]

Yeah, it's too open ended. The first time we did this, it was too open ended, and the caller couldn't come up with any answer.

[Steve Covino]

That is true.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, you got to give them.

[Danny G]

So what I've done is I. I'm taking three almost as equal. Answ.

[Steve Covino]

Your. Your question.

[Danny G]

People are arguing about it.

[Rich Davis]

I like it. Brainwave. It's sweeping the nation already. People are buzzing about it. So if you want to play again, we do it Fridays for your chance to win. What do we call them? Turbo Balls. Nerf. Turbo Ball.

[Danny G]

Turbo balls.

[Rich Davis]

And of course, some koozies will throw in there for you too. So thank you, Kevin. That was great. We'll do it again next Friday.

[Steve Covino]

Kavino and Rich, as we go to Isaac's update. I Just have a random hypothetical in the room because I have Dodger fans here and Yankees fan, Camino Yankees, you guys, because we were talking about the most annoying fan base. What. What fan base do you think the average person would want to see said Dodgers or Yankees in the postseason? Like what. What would give more Yankees? I think you like. You think an early dismissal.

[Rich Davis]

Why? Because of the stereotypical botcha galoop Yankee fan with.

[Danny G]

Yeah, like the viral video of that Yankee fan flipping off the Red Sox fan right in his face.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that.

[Rich Davis]

That type of guy with the. With the chain and the jersey and the.

[Steve Covino]

What could we build them right now before we go to Isaac? Give me the Halloween costume. Starter kit. If you wanted to dress up as a Yankee or a Dodger fan, go ahead. Yankee fan, I think is a chain. Yankee fans, a chain. An oversized Yankees jersey.

[Danny G]

Dodger fan. I need a Dodger tattoo on my forearm.

[Steve Covino]

You know, to tattoo. Okay. Yeah.

[Isaac Loincron]

Dodger fan stuck in traffic on the way to and from the game.

[Danny G]

Let's see.

[Steve Covino]

High socks for a Dodger fan, definitely. You're rocking some high socks. Dodgers fans may be wearing Dickies and, like, some vans, you know, because that's what people want. Yankee fan has to come with some hair product, right?

[Rich Davis]

Are they selling these at Spirit Halloween?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, I think they are.

[Rich Davis]

All right, nice.

[Steve Covino]

We'll think about it and we'll go to Isaac for an update. Isaac, what's going on, buddy boy?

[Isaac Loincron]

All right, we'll start with NFL injury news, fellows. The Baltimore Ravens officially ruling out quarterback Lamar Jackson for Sunday's game against Houston due to a hamstring injury. Cooper Rush will get the start at quarterback. Washington Commanders confirming that quarterback Jaden Daniels will start on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. After missing two games with the sprained knee, Chargers ruled out left tackle Joe Alt and returner Darius Davis. They also listed right guard Makai Bechton as questionable. The Las Vegas Raiders listed tight end Brock Bowers as questionable for Sunday's game at Indianapolis due to a knee injury. As usual, Bowers hairline was listed as doubtful. The Dallas Cowboys ruled out receivers Ceedee Lamb and Kevonte Turpin, as well as offensive linemen Tyler Guyton and Tyler Booker for their game against the Jets. Baseball. The New York Mets fired pitching coach Jeremy Hefner, as well as hitting coaches Jeremy Barnes and Eric Chavez. Bench coach John Gibbons resigned. And the Toronto Blue Jays named Kevin Gosman their starting pitcher for Game one of the American League Division Series on Saturday against the Yankees. Guys, thank you.

All right, thank you. GSP Covino enriched live from fox sports radio studio. And, man, we're gonna have to debate this one, Rich, because I think you and I are gonna have different answers. Business fluctuations make running your manufacturing business complex, but staffing your business doesn't have to be.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, express pros, there's no debate there.

[Rich Davis]

No, no. Express pros, they know what's up. Let express employment pros provide the workforce you need. Go to expresspros.com find a location near you. That's expresspros.com and now it's time for our express pros pro of the week.

[Steve Covino]

You know what? I. I know you're saying. We're probably saying, ooh, is it Mac Jones or was it Schlitler?

[Rich Davis]

What? Is it Schlitler?

[Steve Covino]

You mean the guy that swept the nation last night? Who's this guy? This one hit wonder, Schlitler? I gotta say, I'll give it to your guy. I mean, it was the playoffs. Counts more.

[Rich Davis]

Cam Schlitler is your express pro pro of the week. The first pitcher in MLB history to toss at least eight scoreless innings and record 12 strikeouts without allowing a walk in a postseason do or die game. Last night. The dude was on fire. Dude was throwing high heat. Had total control. He had just over 100 something pitches, 75 strikes.

[Steve Covino]

High heat. Isn't that a mad dog show on MLB network?

[Rich Davis]

It sure is.

[Steve Covino]

High heat, everybody.

[Rich Davis]

I hate the expression, but it's true. He put on a master class of pitching last night.

[Steve Covino]

Young kid too, right?

[Rich Davis]

Young kid stepped up. He beat his team. He rooted for his entire childhood. Sent them pack and sent them home. Grew up a Red Sox fan, was dominant for the Yankees last night and became a legend. As Aaron Boone said, a superstar was born last night. It was an insane performance. So I gotta say, Cam Schlitler, what.

[Steve Covino]

Were his regular season numbers?

[Rich Davis]

I mean, he lost only, I think, two games.

[Steve Covino]

He started in July, so he came up in July.

[Rich Davis]

So yeah, double check his regular season record, but came through when it counted. And major, major props to Cam Schlit. I'm excited to see what he does next.

[Steve Covino]

Round four and three with a two nine six era. So we're talking about a young kid getting the ball In a do or die game three. And you know what? He could be pitching in a very important game three. Because I'd imagine you're going up to Toronto the goal in a game one and two. When there's a five game set divisional, you want to go back to the Bronx tied at least one one, right?

[Rich Davis]

It was a magical moment. He was in his own and it was cool to see. And in the Red Sox defense, I mean, you saw what Alex Cora said. You know, we had to be perfect to beat him because he was perfect tonight.

[Steve Covino]

Hold on. Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, you're not. You're not pitching Freed in game one, are you?

[Rich Davis]

It's to be determined. I think Luis Hill probably gets the ball, but we'll see.

[Steve Covino]

So give me the. Give me your Yankee because you know me, I love schedule watching.

[Rich Davis]

I think it's going to be Luis Hill, then Freed, then Rodon, then look.

[Isaac Loincron]

At the schedule game.

[Rich Davis]

Yankees haven't announced game one started yet, but I think it's last year's rookie of the year.

[Steve Covino]

If Luis Heel starts game one of the American League divisional, that's the rumor.

[Rich Davis]

We got to see what happens then.

[Steve Covino]

Game two, you're going to go back to max free, right? And then you got to ask yourself there'll be a rest day when they travel back to the Bronx. Do you go Rodone or Shitler?

[Rich Davis]

Game three, Schlitler, bro. Schlitler. Get it right. All right.

[Steve Covino]

Did you have to dump me there?

[Rich Davis]

Remember the name. And oops, I will say this, it's a tricky name. In all fairness, I don't think anybody could have beat that dude yesterday. And that's what made it an amazing game. That's why he's your play the player of the week. All right, so Covino and Rich, we do it every Friday. We call it weekend hobnob. Let's go.

[Isaac Loincron]

You're winning bets for talking points. If you get stuck socializing.

[Steve Covino]

You ever done anything dangerous?

[Rich Davis]

Ever Dance with the devil in the pale moonlight?

[Steve Covino]

That is dangerous.

[Isaac Loincron]

Friday brings us weekend hobnobby.

[Rich Davis]

All right. I'll make it snappy, like a rubber band sandwich. UFC 320. You heard GSP introduce us. Big weekend in the world of fighting and ufc. You got Ankalaev Pereira two Uncle I have. Winning the first fight in a unanimous decision. So a title fight this weekend in the ufc and we're also going to find out. You already brought it up, Rich. Is 1 BJ really better than 9 Yanks? I say absolutely not. Oh, Yankees at Blue Jays. Not this weekend. Whoa. Not this weekend. Yankees at Blue Jays. I think this is a good watch. Not just because I'm a Yankees fan. Because it was so close throughout the season, they ended up with the same exact record.

[Isaac Loincron]

Right.

[Rich Davis]

So Yankees get to redeem themselves being that the Jays got the best of them in the regular season. They were the AL east champions. And our bonus podcast, over promised. It's a great listen, but you can watch it. We stream it on cavino and Rich FSR on YouTube over promised episode 111. We talk about the best colognes because Lamar Jackson has his own cologne. So we go over the classics. We rank them the best colognes in our history in our come up up. Plus, because it's the postseason, we play a game called Guess this Postseason Baseball kid. Can you name that superstar legend when they were just little kids who might be ass and Rich's NFL picks on over promised again on our YouTube page. Covino and Rich FSR guess this redwood.

[Steve Covino]

All right, there's a lot to watch. Again, we talked about all the NFL football, all the great baseball, all four series in the divisional round that start up tomorrow. Fantastic. I'm really excited to see Shohei pitch in Philadelphia. Danny Z. I know that's on your list. All four series are going to be great, but Shohei pitching in the postseason in Philadelphia, it doesn't get better than that. Ohtani, Schwarber, Bryce Harper. Do these guys got an answer for Shohei Ohtani?

[Rich Davis]

A lot of people are saying they're expecting big things from Bryce Harper because the the Phillies are playing with, like, some sort of, like, chip on their shoulder, a lot of fire. And it starts with him in Schwarber. I can't wait to see this.

[Steve Covino]

All right, so Netflix got a couple things doing. I know you're a fan of the comedian Earthquake. He has a new comedy special. I am a fan that's trending in the top 10 earthquake. If you're a fan of his old.

[Rich Davis]

School, a fan kind of funny.

[Steve Covino]

He gets a lot of industry props.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

So Earthquake, new special. I'm telling you about this show that I watch that I hear no one else buzzing about. It's called Doc. It's this woman doctor that gets hit on the head. She loses her memory, but she remembers everything from 2016 and before.

[Rich Davis]

I feel like that happened to you.

[Steve Covino]

And it's like a drama, but it's dark. But I think it's great, honestly. It's in a network show, right? No, it's on Netflix. Netflix. So Doc, fantastic. Love is Blind. Danny G. The wife And I are gonna stay up late tonight, watch and try to Season nine.

[Danny G]

Same for us. There was so much wild card action in NFL football this past week. We gotta start tomorrow.

[Steve Covino]

You're right. There was too much football, baseball. Tonight's a night to really catch up on all the junk like Love is Blind. You and I both love Morning show on Apple tv. That is fantastic. Jennifer Aniston, Reese Witherspoon, that whole cast is fantastic. Billy Crudup deserves awards for that show. New episodes of Morning show and you guys are missing the boat on Only Murders in the building. Season 5 is as good as any other season. So just so many great shows to catch up on. Enjoy. And Black Rabbit on Netflix, another great.

[Danny G]

That's our favorite right now. One more for Apple tv if you like. Sci Fi Invasion. Really good.
