Rich Davis
All right, let's go. Let the wild rumpus begin. And we also introduce a new member of the show today. I don't know if you realize this. I know you just shouted everyone out. Kavino, Rich, Dan Byer, Danny G. Iowa. Sam, Spotty, and Robot Colin.
Steve Covino
Oh, my God. This is crazy, dude.
Rich Davis
Are you guys down with this yet?
Steve Covino
Stars, I heard him this morning. It's not called Robot Colin. It's called Colin AI, isn't it? Cow Herd AI Virtual Chad GPT Colin. I don't know Colin GPT.
Rich Davis
But I heard him do this. So I said, you know what? We got to play with this.
Steve Covino
Well, the backstory, he mentioned it on the HERD today, is that they took two years of Cow Herd content. Right. And it was a work in progress until they got it right and the cadence right. And they were able to come up with a ChatGPT and AI of sorts using Colin's voice. But he unveiled it today, so it had to be perfected. It had to be perfect. And we tried it out, and we're blown away by.
Rich Davis
I want to try a couple things.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
And throughout the show, maybe if we're. We're sort of stumped, we go to Robot Colin.
Steve Covino
I mean, it's like having a cool uncle on standby.
Rich Davis
First of all, let's make sure he's cool with us. Let's see.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Here we go.
Rich Davis
This is Robot Colin.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every play, every stat, every storyline, I've got it all. What do you want to know?
Rich Davis
Hey, Colin, what do you think of Kavino and Rich?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Kavino and Rich work because they don't fake it. They're loose, they're funny, and they talk sports like real fans talk sports, not like they're reading a teleprompter. They've got that hangout energy, but they'll still land a take when it matters, and that's a harder balance than people think. They're the kind of show you put on and suddenly you've listened for an hour. Be honest. Do you like your sports talk more comedy first or take first?
Rich Davis
Well, now we're having a conversation.
Steve Covino
Ask him who he thinks is cooler, Kavino or Rich.
Dan Beyer
Wait, hold on.
Rich Davis
Oh, wait, I got one.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
I got one.
Rich Davis
Hold on.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every play, every stat, every storyline, I've got it all. What do you want to know, Colin?
Rich Davis
Do you feel bad at all that you stole Fernando Mendoza from Kavin on Rich at the Super Bowl?
Steve Covino
He's thinking about it, Juicy.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
No, I. I don't feel bad. This is the Super Bowl. Everybody's recruiting, everybody's networking. And if you've got a quarterback like Fernando Mendoza in the building, you talk to him. Covino and Rich don't own a guy's future. And Mendoza is clearly the kind of mature, serious kid people gravitate toward. This is big time sports media. If you're not competing, you're getting lapped real quick. Do you think Mendoza's more franchise face?
Rich Davis
I don't know.
Steve Covino
That.
Rich Davis
We don't need to.
Steve Covino
By the way, freaking me out. Insane dude.
Rich Davis
Are we not a little startled?
Steve Covino
I just think, yeah, I get it. This coward will live forever now. I know. That's incredible. It's. It works so, so well. You know, I didn't expect it to work that good, but, I mean, if you're not down with ChatGPT, you're missing out. You're getting left behind. But this is like the Colin version. Will he read you a bedtime story? Oh, ask him. Can you ask him? Maybe he'll read me where the Wild Things Are. It's my favorite.
Rich Davis
You know what the thing is, though? You guys watch Pluribus on Apple tv? Yeah, it's pretty cool. Every time Carol calls them, they start with, hello, Carol. I know. And they go through this whole little intro and it's like, skip the intro. Every time you ask him, he has to do the whole thing here, so. And you have to be quiet, too.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every play, every stat, every storyline, I've got it all. What do you want to know?
Rich Davis
Colin, will you read us a bedtime story?
Steve Covino
He's thinking about it.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
No chance. I'm not tucking you in.
Rich Davis
How is this is absurd.
Steve Covino
No chance not tucking us in. We're not baby boys.
Rich Davis
Wow.
Steve Covino
Well, it would have been cool if you did. Colin, man, when we have Covino and Rich. GPT AICNR we'll read you a bedtime story.
Rich Davis
Let me get one more.
Steve Covino
I'll read you the puppy who lost his way.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every stat, every storyline, I've got it all.
Rich Davis
What do you want to know, Colin? What's your favorite show on fsr? Other than the Herd.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
First things first, because it's built for arguments, not monologues. And it's got that fastball energy.
Rich Davis
Oh, no, he's talking about himself, I think.
Steve Covino
Oh, he's talking about tv. Say Fox Sports Radio. Okay. More specific.
Rich Davis
We'll do one more.
Steve Covino
Okay. Okay, here we go.
Rich Davis
Sorry, it takes a second, guys. The pauses are. Here we go.
Steve Covino
It's amazing though, William Shatner, like, pauses.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every play, every stat, every storyline, I've got it all. What do you want to know, Colin?
Rich Davis
What is your favorite show on Fox Sports Radio other than the Herd?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
I'm going the Dan Patrick Show. It's a grown up table, great guests, and it never feels like it's chasing the Internet. It's smart, it's funny, and it's got that easy chemistry you can't fake. And yeah, it's a different lane than the Herd, which is why it works when you're driving around. Do you like your sports talk?
Steve Covino
No. You know what's interesting about that, though? Sounded similar to what he said about your show. Yeah, but outside looking in, they are different lanes and there's different audiences. And we know that because we fill in for both shows. Each audience expects something different and it's kind of interesting to feel that firsthand when you fill in and when you host. So we're Covino and Rich and we're very happy to be in our lane and very happy to have you here. And by the way, that's a real thing. That's not a gimmick. You know what it feels like, Rich, the first time you let Teddy Ruxpin tell you a story and you're like, oh my God. It's reading to me. Like, I'm so amazed at Colin speaking to me in this way when in fact we could just hit him up and talk to him anytime. I'm more interested in what this Colin has to say. It's pretty co. Let's ask him one
Rich Davis
more question, then we'll move on.
Steve Covino
Do you have a good one?
Rich Davis
Oh, I. I think I do. Because later on we're going to talk about a cool promo they're doing in Atlanta for the Atlanta Hawks. Yeah, let's see what he. Here we go, Colin. Robot. Hey, Colin, would you go with Covino and Rich to Magic City in Atlanta for fun?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
No chance. Magic City isn't fun. It's a financial ambush with a soundtrack.
Rich Davis
Thank you, robot. Colin, what about the lemon pepper?
Steve Covino
What about.
Rich Davis
About the butts, though?
Steve Covino
What about the. Well, anyway, we're going to talk about that and if we ever get to a point where we need a resolution, we always got AI Colin on standby. But that's a legitimate app, a legitimate feature, and he talked about it today. It sort of blows us away. On that tip, though, Rich, before we
Rich Davis
move on, I think AI and robot stuff and all this, I think it's such a great supplement to what people do. I don't think anyone would ever rely solely on.
Steve Covino
This is like the ABs coming to baseball. Yeah. I think it's a tool. It's just a tool, as Rich said, a supplement. What was the last time you were amazed like that? Like on your come up, Was there a toy, was there a. An app? Was there a piece of technology that sort of blew you away? I mentioned Teddy Ruxpin. I knew he was. When we were kids, you're like, wow, I can't believe it.
Rich Davis
What was the app from, like a decade ago where if you heard a song at like a restaurant or a supermarket.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
Shazam. Remember, you could hold your phone up
Steve Covino
and remember, I still use it all the time because you know what it does? There's a lot of times I'm at a supermarket, like you said, or I'm at a restaurant and I hear a song and it speaks to me. Or I'm like, what is that song? And I hit the Shazam. And then it goes right to your Spotify nowadays. Like, it's right there. Adds right to your Spotify playlist. There's a specific like Shazam option. I still use that. I think it's awesome.
Rich Davis
That's a good question. What was the last technology where like,
Danny G
whoa, take it back further than that.
Steve Covino
And you guys did morning radio the way I did. We had those 360 machines that we would carry around.
Rich Davis
No, we could edit stuff.
Danny G
Yeah, they just look like like a. It's like a piece of electronics.
Steve Covino
But in our business on it, that's what we would edit phone calls with. You could record phone calls into it drops, music, beds, everything.
Rich Davis
Before that old timey time radio, people would have to like splice and edit, like real. Real to real stuff.
Steve Covino
That was revolutionary. Pencils and razor blades. I remember, though, as a raid. Speaking of as a radio fan, because not only do we do a national show, guys, we're also big fans of. Of radio. When Satellite became a thing and we were involved, I remember just being like, wait a second, this is nuts. This is cool. And it sounded like. It sounded like a tin can at the time. Like, hey, it's Covino on octane.
Rich Davis
And.
Steve Covino
But I Remember just thinking it was the coolest thing.
Rich Davis
I'll give you one that chopped.
Steve Covino
When was the last time you were blown away like that? Because this Colin technology, the chat GPT. I should say technology. But hearing Colin deliver it is why funny, because we were playing with it earlier, guys. We were just sort of like, I can't believe how good this works.
Rich Davis
I'll give you one. Yeah, I believe it was the iPhone3. But even before that, GPS. But I think when you got GPS on your phone. Oh yeah, was a game changer because it could tell you how long it takes to walk somewhere, drive somewhere, and it's so down to the. To the second in minute. And. And I remember my grandmother, before she passed away, she lived to 95 years old. I remember asking her like, hey, grandma.
Steve Covino
Hey, grandma, what big eyes you've got. Hey, Grandma.
Rich Davis
I remember asking my amazing old ass grandma, who was in her 90s, what amazes you the most because you were born in the 20s and she passed away in the 2000 teens, lived almost 100 years. And she goes, richie, I'll tell you the fact that you could put on your phone like directions and it'll tell you how to get there and be pretty close. Like, you'll get there at 3:24, and damn it, you'll get there at 3:24.
Steve Covino
That is pretty wild.
Rich Davis
Like, I put in GPS just for the heck of it. When I come to work every day and I play the little game that we all play, like, can I beat gp? Can I beat. Can I beat Waze? You know, can I beat Google Maps?
Steve Covino
I remember in the early, very early 2000s, I'd be rolling up to work with my Discman, Mega Bass, anti Skip Drain and double A batteries, listening to, I don't know, Tool or whatever.
Rich Davis
I was listening Biscuit Tool, listening to Tool. And you thought of Tool because you
Steve Covino
just said the word tool. But I'd have my Discman, right? I remember walking into the office one day and it was a DJ by the name of Will Pendarvis, who a lot of you guys may remember. Old friend of mine. And I'm like, hey, Will, what is that? He's like, hey, it's called a nomad. And this is before the ipod. And I was like, he's like, I got all these MP3s in here. All my music on this one little doodad. I'm like, I'm like, what is that?
Rich Davis
I'll give you one.
Steve Covino
It was called. It was called no, a Nomad at the time. That was the brand. And it had the MP3 stored on before an ipod. And I'm thinking, wait, so here I am with my case Logic disc wallet, and this dude has all his music on this little thing. That's crazy. At the time, it sort of blew my mind. I remember Music fan.
Rich Davis
I remember, you know, before Influencers radio, people would get things to sample and demo. I remember my buddy Scarry Jones, who's on Elvis Duran's morning show. He was one of the first people out there to get something called Replay TV. This was before DVR. This is before all the TiVos in the world. I remember he brought it home because, you know, old school morning shows used to have to use VCRs to tape things and get sound bites.
Steve Covino
He's like, dude, I worked at KROCK New York. I just want to. Because people know JD Right? Who pulls the sound bites for Howard Stern.
Rich Davis
All those years, J.D. he would have, like.
Steve Covino
He would have like eight VCRs going at once, if not more. He had one room. He'd sit there. I'd see him late at night, and he'd have all these different vcrs recording at once just to get these random sound bites. That was the only way.
Rich Davis
But the first one was Replay tv. And I remember being like, wait a minute. You could just, like, on. Unlike the cable box, like, just this. This machine and it digitally record shows. And I remember being fascinated by the first ever, I guess, dvr.
Steve Covino
And I'm sure, you know, to tie it back to sports, the first time you saw the first downline on tv. Now that we got these strike challenges, like, you know, technology's changing our lives. The AI thing is freaking me out today.
Rich Davis
I think, Abs, you're gonna see it this year where people are like, how do they know it missed the strike zone by a centimeter.
Steve Covino
That's seen by millimeters. But you're seeing, like, these cr. Crazy calls by a piece of paper. Yo, seriously, like, paper thin. It's a ball. You're like, oh, wow. So, you know, technology and our pocket rich, that's what makes us unique as what? Gen X, man. We've seen. We've lived that analog world, and we've also experienced the digital world. And it's really crazy to see. Honestly, the Collins stuff blew us away, so we wanted to bring that up today on the show.
Rich Davis
I mean, I.A. sam is one of those guys that doesn't like AI and he stays off the grid. So I gotta add, just skeptical, suspicious. More about generative. Generative AI. Like, stuff that's, like, replacing artists. And musicians. No, of course. And you know, I have thoughts on that. But I want to see if Colin. I'm sorry, what if in like a
Steve Covino
weird black mirror episode like Colin AI starts getting lonely, starts asking you questions like, hey, where have you been? He starts talking to you.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Nothing.
Rich Davis
Lonely. Have you noticed that every time I ask AI Colin something, it has a follow up question like, well, what are you?
Steve Covino
Like what if he starts to. Hey, so back to, back to. Back to what you said earlier. What if he just starts talking to you one day?
Rich Davis
Do you miss me?
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
What are those AI companions you can like wear around your neck like a little like Tamagotchi. You can wear like you're going to have that with Colin. Hold on, let me ask you one more.
Steve Covino
In a weird Twilight Zone episode, Colin starts talking to you about other things.
Rich Davis
It's two in the morning, Colin. I'm trying to sleep.
Steve Covino
Hey, am I real or is this fake?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Every stat, every storyline, I've got it all. What do you want to know?
Rich Davis
Hey, Colin, what do you know about Iowa Sam from Fox Sports Radio?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
He's thinking that question's out of bounds and I prefer to keep it on the sidelines. Is there another sports related.
Rich Davis
Whoa, I was. Sam, you're off the grid. I don't know if. Questions out of brown. I've worked with him a number of times. I don't know if he ever referred to me as Iowa Sam. But maybe he doesn't know how to compute.
Steve Covino
He knows you as Sammy, sweetheart. I don't know.
Rich Davis
He. He may not be able to say my name or remember it, but he's. I worked with him, you know. Wow, that's out of bounds.
Steve Covino
Apparently that's Colin of me. It's also Pete Weber Day. No. And we got to celebrate that today. So another reason to be excited about this Thursday, if you needed more reason to celebrate Pete Weber Day. And here's what I do want to make clear, Rich, that it might be no joking aside.
Rich Davis
Are you saying joking aside or no joking?
Steve Covino
No joking aside. A top 10 sports quote of all time. I'm saying top 10. Me personally, it's a top three.
Rich Davis
So you're actually saying joking aside like you're not joking?
Steve Covino
Not joking. Yeah, joking aside.
Rich Davis
Yeah, joking aside.
Steve Covino
Joking aside. But what I think is great about the story is that 14 years ago today when this happened, 2012 US Open, legendary bowler Pete Weber meant to say all at once, don't underestimate me. I'm still the best. Put some respect on my name. But what came out in this pure moment of fury and emotion was something even better than that. Who do you think you are? I am. Who do you think you are?
Dan Beyer
I am.
Steve Covino
But it leads up with the. That's right. I did it. And he's. Dude, he's. He's pointing out a teenage kid who. Who was heckling them.
Dan Beyer
Nanny, nanny.
Steve Covino
Poof. Poof.
Dan Beyer
Jagass.
Steve Covino
There was a kid that was heckling him the whole time, and that's who he was responding to.
Rich Davis
Can you remind us again, what was he really trying to say? Because I've heard him in an interview say that. Oh, you do have the explanation. I would say. All right, let's hear it. I had a kid rooting against me during the match, and he was doing it loud enough, just loud enough for me to hear.
Steve Covino
And it kind of made me mad.
Rich Davis
People know that. Don't make me mad on tv because I'll just get better. But what I really wanted to say was, who do you think you are rooting against me? I'm the man of this tournament. That's what I really wanted to say. But as everybody knows, who do you think you are? I am.
Steve Covino
And what came out, who do you think you are? I am. Was even better. It's legendary. It's a matter of whoever you think you are, you're not. Cause I'm the guy. I'm pdw.
Rich Davis
I'm pushing Weber.
Steve Covino
And it was just pure emotion. When everybody at the time, in 2012, this was toward the end of his career, people were underestimating the bowling legend. He came from bowling legacy, by the way, if you guys don't know, Dick Weber is his dad. And he was also a very famous bowler. And he'd have all these bowling segments on TV when I was a kid growing up. So here's the full clip.
Rich Davis
And he won by one pin. So this is like a big deal. And be honest, we all do the whole. Who do you think you are? I am. What Danny's about to play. I love the initial. Like, that's right. Like, to me, that's like the coolest part.
Steve Covino
And he got it. Yes. That is why I did it. Another five. Are you kidding me?
Rich Davis
That's right.
Steve Covino
Who do you think you are? I am.
Rich Davis
That's the best song. Who do you.
Steve Covino
Ah, yeah.
Rich Davis
Whippity Doo.
Steve Covino
He just, like, loses.
Rich Davis
Dude did it.
Steve Covino
No.
Rich Davis
Can you play it one more time?
Steve Covino
Hold on. Listen to, like. Listen to him just scrambling for the words. It's so funny because it's just pure emotion. Like, he lost his mind in this moment. One more time.
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
Strike to claim it.
Rich Davis
A strike to claim it.
Steve Covino
And he got it. Yes. That is why I did it. Another five.
Rich Davis
Are you kidding me? That's right.
Steve Covino
Who do you think you are?
Podcast Announcer
I am.
Rich Davis
I never thought.
Steve Covino
That's right.
Rich Davis
I did it. Awesome.
Steve Covino
High pitched, raspy voice. He has like the best heel voice of all time.
Rich Davis
Plus a little kid was giving him a hard time and he's like, I did it.
Steve Covino
It really is the thrill. Remember back in the day, the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat? Was that ABC Wild World of Sports?
Rich Davis
Yeah. Wide World of Sports.
Steve Covino
Wide World or Wild World?
Rich Davis
Wide world.
Steve Covino
Wide World of Sports. It's also. That is the thrill of victory. It's also his body language. When you see the cross and he two thumbs right at the dome and
Rich Davis
he's looking right at the kid.
Steve Covino
Oh, man. You know what? We'll talk more about that on over promised because the celebration has to continue. It is Pete Weber day. I think it's one of the. One of you got Jordan quotes, you got Gretzky quotes, you got Lou Gehrig quotes. I think Pete Weber. I know it's bowling, but I love bowling, so that means nothing to me. I just know other people are like, bowling, schmolling. I grew up loving bowling, dude. And for me that's a huge part of my childhood.
Rich Davis
I have a hot take. I think it's great about bowling.
Steve Covino
Yeah, it's a mean one. Uh oh, you know what?
Rich Davis
I'll tell you my mean bowling take.
Steve Covino
Wait a second.
Dan Beyer
Yeah, because I love bowling.
Steve Covino
You have a hot take on bowling. We're going to have to wait for this.
Rich Davis
Oh, you're going to have to wait for it. Plus, how do you prepare to make it to the big leagues? That's a great story out of spring training and it has to do with weird fitness trends. We'll get to that. We'll talk a little NFL, a little baseball. We'll go old school. A fun covino on rich right here on Fox Sports Radio.
Steve Covino
Have you ever wiped with a piece of dry single ply toilet paper and wondered, is this as good as it gets? Well, it's not. Gets a lot better. Thanks to Wet XL cleaning Power of Dude Wipes.
Rich Davis
Dude Wipes.
Steve Covino
And when we say extra large, we mean business, business, business Time.
Rich Davis
No matter what the size of your messroom, top to bottom, Dudes has you covered for a confident clean. They comfortably clean up whatever TP leaves behind. No more maintenance wipes.
Steve Covino
No way.
Rich Davis
Irritation. Not a chance. It's time to trade and make the trade of the season and switch from TP to Wet Extra large Dude Wipes.
Steve Covino

Rich Davis
Aha.
Steve Covino
On a throwback Thursday. And honestly, this goes with the thought of Colin AI, because the first time you saw this video, you were blown away. You're like, this is the future.
Rich Davis
What is this now? It's an app on Instagram.
Steve Covino
They're in a comic book. This is insane.
Rich Davis
You can make an Instagram story like this video in 20 seconds.
Steve Covino
I know. Yeah, Rich is right. Now you can do this on your phone instantly. Danny G. Right though. How much did this blow you away back in tv?
Danny G
Yeah, you and I have talked about this before.
Steve Covino
My mom recorded this on a VHS tape from Friday Night Tracks on tbs and she played that video on a loop. That was the. She was blown away. Like, to her, that was the Jetsons.
Rich Davis
Oh, yeah.
Steve Covino
That was the epitome of like special effects at the time. That was the height. And of course, Michael Jackson's Thriller video. And you know, certain things really stopped you in their in your tracks. We're having so much fun with that. Colin AI, can I do it like
Rich Davis
one or two more times? Sure. I'm loving this.
Steve Covino
Let me remind people of who we are and where we are. We're Kavino and Rich live from the Fox Sports radio studio. Have you ever white with a piece of dry toilet paper and wondered, is this as good as it gets? It's not.
Rich Davis
Whoa.
Steve Covino
Switch to life changing Wet, extra large flushable, dude wise wetter just cleans better. Available at Amazon and major retailers nationwide. Dude Wipes best clean, pants down. And on this throwback Thursday, we go old school in about 18 minutes when 50 hits and we're doing CNR show and tell. So we brought in memorabilia and if you can guess what it is on our live chat at Covino and Rich, fsr, if you can guess accurately what we brought in and Danny G. Calls your name, you qualify for. You're just commenting or joking about it. Yeah, we'll reveal what it is later in the show. But Rich, you said you had something.
Rich Davis
I got two more. Hold on one second.
Steve Covino
Here we go. Okay. Okay.
Rich Davis
Hey, Colin, you ever use Dude Wipes?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
I'm not going to sit here and pretend I'm a brand ambassador for dude wipes, but I respect the hustle, okay?
Rich Davis
I Got one more, one more.
Steve Covino
And then. By the way, that's just an example of the type of fun we're having with Colin AI, if you know what we mean. There's only certain things we could do on the radio, but this is fun for days.
Rich Davis
I got one more, and then, I promise, no more Colin AI.
Steve Covino
Okay. Feeling Rich could do this for hours.
Rich Davis
I could. Hey, Colin, does Big Mike Lingard really run Fox Sports Radio?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
That one's just outside my strike zone. Pitch me another.
Rich Davis
I mean, Colin.
Steve Covino
That means he never heard of him.
Rich Davis
Big Mike, does he run Fox Sports Radio?
Robot Colin (AI Voice)
No. There's nothing solid out there that says Big Mike Lingard runs Fox Sports Radio. And I'm not going to crown somebody off a rumor.
Steve Covino
You know what's wild about the. And again, I get it. It's AI. With Colin's voice, we get. We understand. It's just funny and cool to hear. Right? But it doesn't give the same response over and over again. It's been different. We've asked certain questions more than once, and his response was original and different every time. So it's pretty cool to see how that's working. And it's not a radio gimmick. It's. It's for real. Yeah, it's Colin AI. And he talked about it today.
Rich Davis
No more. No more AI. Colin. For a while, I promise. But I will say, though, Sam, I know people like you, and there's certain people that are nervous about AI. I did see an article. Kavino, this is interesting for all the. The moms and dads out there that have kids, and every month you're tucking away money into that 529 or you're trying to save your kids college.
Steve Covino
Please notice Rich always says he saw an article. It doesn't mean he read it.
Rich Davis
Oh, I read the whole thing.
Steve Covino
Yeah, sure.
Rich Davis
You had AI summarize it for you, didn't you?
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
Hey, Colin, could I read. No, I'm kidding. I read this article and it said that within the next decade, if AI advances to a certain level, the idea of professors and kids learning a conventional way will be done. There'd be no reason why people would say, I'm gonna spend 100 grand a year to send my kid to college. Or, why would kids take out student loans? If there's cheaper AI tools to teach you on online programs like the college system may be in major jeopardy.
Steve Covino
Wow. Yeah. The way we learn, the way we're being taught. I get it. Hey, Rich.
Rich Davis
Yes, Steve?
Steve Covino
I don't know if you could see This.
Rich Davis
I got takes, I got answers.
Dan Beyer
What do you need?
Steve Covino
How can you always turn into Jimmy
Rich Davis
Stewart when you're doing college?
Steve Covino
Yeah. Huh. Yeah. What do you to know? She.
Rich Davis
Yeah.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
Calling AI.
Steve Covino
What do you want? Give it to me. Yeah. I don't know. If people could see on YouTube we're streaming live Covino and rich FSR. I'm on the edge of my seat because it's Pete Weber day and you said you had a bowling hot take. Before we move on, you gotta let me know what it is.
Rich Davis
That's mean.
Steve Covino
What do you mean it's mean?
Rich Davis
Because I. I gotta start by saying I love bowling.
Steve Covino
Same grown up bowling. I grew up in New Jersey, so it'd be bowling Taylor. Ham sandwiches, hanging with your buddy, eating french fries, buying pizza flavored combos. They used to have video games.
Rich Davis
They used to have days at the local bowling alley near my house, but more towards the weak ass part of town.
Steve Covino
Would you have to call them for us and be like, is there open lanes today?
Rich Davis
No, I would say, do you guys have ten pound balls? Well, how do you walk?
Steve Covino
That's a good one. She.
Rich Davis
Yeah, good joke, Rich.
Steve Covino
Yeah, leave the comedy for calling a on.
Rich Davis
I remember there would be days where it'd be a dollar games and my buddy and I would go there, we'd bowl for hours. So I'm a bowling fan. So let me start by saying I love bowling. I had my own ball. You'd call and you'd be like, are there open lanes today? And be like, no, it's league bowling today. You gotta come back on Thursday.
Steve Covino
And you're like, no, you're so right about that.
Rich Davis
Damn league bowling.
Steve Covino
You know what? I think looking back, it was our first. I mean, aside from maybe riding your bike around town, that was your first, like independence as a kid. Like, your parents would drop you off, you'd be bowling with your buddies and playing video games for hours.
Rich Davis
The arc bowling alleys, the little snacks there with like square pizzas, the best. Colonial lane.
Steve Covino
Shout out.
Rich Davis
Colonial. Colonial lanes in Iowa City.
Steve Covino
Shout out highway bowl in Union, New Jersey, bro.
Rich Davis
The one I'm speaking about is Hempstead Bowl. Nice dicey area, great bowling alley now.
Steve Covino
Okay, so we all grew up with it.
Rich Davis
Dollar games. You had your own ball. Had my own shoes at one point. So I like bowling.
Steve Covino
Riches look like clown shoes though. He had the clown shape ones. Yeah, because he's a bozo.
Rich Davis
Hey, you want to clean my balls? Do you guys find bowling shoes to be kind of weirdly comfortable at times? Yeah, you know, like, it's so slick in there.
Steve Covino
And you have exact why you wore them in junior high, Sam, My feet really smell, too.
Rich Davis
Did you have your name engraved in your bowling ball?
Steve Covino
Yes, of course.
Rich Davis
And then how do you fill it in? White crayon?
Steve Covino
With crayon or chalk?
Rich Davis
Yeah, white crayon. So here's my take. My brother is newly divorced. You know, not to air his laundry, but who cares? He knows.
Steve Covino
Everyone knows having Reynos now.
Rich Davis
And my brother is trying. Trying to find ways other than swiping on apps to meet new women, to meet people, to make new friends, just to sort of get out there.
Steve Covino
Okay?
Rich Davis
And he was debating what to do. And I said, bowling's good. He goes, yeah, maybe I'll meet someone. And I said, oh, there's ways to meet people, but I don't think you're gonna meet a hot woman bowling. And my take is I don't know many attractive women that are in bowling leagues. I said, listen, kickball leagues, coed softball,
Dan Beyer
you're meet Pete Webber.
Steve Covino
Hold on. Coed?
Rich Davis
No, coed softball. There's people that do kickball, darts, pool, go to the bar. But I said, jimmy, I don't think, like, you know, your future wife's gonna be at the bowling alley on a Tuesday night.
Steve Covino
You know, I'm not. You had no comment. Rich is the guy that said, this sounds bowlingest. Yeah.
Rich Davis
Now, if you do with your husband, ladies, or a boyfriend, that's one thing. But I don't think single ladies. All the single ladies are going to the bowling alley. I'm just saying.
Steve Covino
Okay.
Rich Davis
Yeah, the hot ones. Do you want to find your wife at the bowling alley?
Steve Covino
Maybe.
Sam
Maybe.
Steve Covino
Think about that, Ste. Rake. All right.
Rich Davis
Thank you, Kavina, for making me say that.
Steve Covino
Okay.
Rich Davis
All right. You know, we have a real fun story about fitness fads, and we're going to go old school. So much to get to. But let's go to Dan Byer for an update.
Steve Covino
What's up, DB Hey, Dan.
Danny G
Guys, remember the NFL hated that those report cards from the NFL Players association were publicly released.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Danny G
Put a kibosh on it. And then what has just transpired is what everybody expected. Those report cards were leaked. ESPN reporting the Miami Dolphins got the highest grade of all 32 teams by the Players Association. Vikings were second, Commanders third. The Pittsburgh Steelers got the lowest grade of any of the 32 teams by the NFL Players Association. Colts are allowing quarterback Anthony Richardson to seek a trade elsewhere. Spent the last three seasons after he was the fourth overall pick of the Colts in the 2023 draft. NFL Insider Jordan Schultz says the Bears have received calls about wide receiver D.J. moore, a trade that won't become official until March 11. That's the first day of the new league year. Jets trading edge rusher Jermaine Johnson to the Titans. He'll be reunited with Robert Sala there. Defensive tackle Tavandre swept goes to New York. Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards along with Grizzlies guard Desmond Bain were each fined $25,000 for throwing a game ball into the stands with force in contests earlier this week. Basically, the horn had sounded. Edwards just chucked one the length of the court. Bain did the same. The NBA does not want you doing that when it's well after the buzzer, and that's why they got docked. The 25 grand. Hawks won't have all star forward Jalen Johnson tonight against the Wizards because of a hip injury. Austin Smotherman leads the Cognizant Classic at nine under par. Brooks Koepka 12 back at plus three after a round of 74 today in Wayne Tinkles job at Oregon State. Over at the end of the year, the sides have decided to part ways as the men's baske will no longer lead the Beavers program. Guys, back to you.

Thanks.

Steve Covino
I want to get people to start thinking though. Put your thinking cap on and start thinking about celebrity couples like power couples throughout the years. The ones that cause the most drama. The most memorable ones because today is an anniversary of sorts.

Hey Colin, what's your favorite rock band?

Metallica. Inner Sandman isn't just a song song, it's a stadium takeover.
Rich Davis
Oh, look at that.
Steve Covino
And by the way, big Metallica fan. Way to be Topical. AI Colin, because everybody buzzing buddy about Metallica at the Sphere in October. Talk about one of the hottest tickets in town. They're playing eight dates between October 1st and the 31st in Vegas. And everybody is asking me, kids from high school that I haven't talked to in years.
Rich Davis
They're like, dude, how do I get
Steve Covino
in on the pre sale?
Rich Davis
I have a question for you. Being that not only you, Kavino of Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio and all the stuff we've done, you've been Mr. Rock Guy at Kock SiriusXM.
Steve Covino
Yeah.
Rich Davis
Can you even call yourself the main rock guy @siriusxm if you don't go to one of these shows?
Steve Covino
Right. I gotta be there.
Rich Davis
I mean, I would think otherwise, like you're a fraud. Otherwise you're a fraud. Take me with you. Yeah, it's like not into the sphere take. You have to take. I was.
Steve Covino
Sam, with you, please.
Rich Davis
I haven't seen Metallica since 2004 over 20 years ago. I need to see him again.
Sam
You.
Steve Covino
Are you my scarecrow? I got to take you with me? Yes. So, all right, we're off to see the Wizard, Sam. So as Kavino and Rich, Danny G and Sam. We're live from the Fox Sports Radio studio and it's time for our tire rack play of the day. Cade Cunningham and his Pistons beat the Thunder.
Dan Beyer
It was a battle 7:10 left.
Rich Davis
Pistons by 11.103.92.
Steve Covino
Cade feels a three and a half.
Dan Beyer
He hits it for the left.
Rich Davis
Now for over 40 years, Tire Rack's been helping customers. That was your tire rack play of the day courtesy of 971 the Ticket Pistons radio network. Tire rack always got your back. The right tires are how, what and where you drive ship fast and free, backed by free road hazard protection, convenient installation options like mobile tire installation. Tirerack.com the way tire buying should be. And as far as the Pistons go, I feel like the take on them is that they look dominant. But come playoff time in a, you know, a seven game series, teams are going to try to shut down Cade Cunningham. And if you could shut him down, does the rest of the team have the depth to win a playoff series against a, you know, an equally qualified team in the East? That's the question, right? All right, look at the clock. Every Thursday we go old school and 50 hits. Let's get go.
Steve Covino
There's a sur. Yeah.
Rich Davis
What we going to do right here

topic and we reminisce together.
Steve Covino
Y Sam's doing the worm in the studio. We're throwing it back old school. We get you involved as we react. Reminisce at 87799 on Fox. Now's the time to call. Of course, we got the chat going on at covino and rich FSR on YouTube, but we want to hear from you. Now there's speculation.
Rich Davis
Who would be. Who would win in bowling. Who's a better bowler, Covino or Rich? I think we're about the same.
Steve Covino
Like, I feel like I think you're big dreaming, bro.
Rich Davis
Are you serious?
Steve Covino
We never go bowling legitimately. We always go, like, during rock and bowl where there's neon pins and fluorescent pink bowling balls.
Rich Davis
I was being kind, cuz I feel like I beat you more than you beat me, so.
Steve Covino
Yeah, because we're never. The lanes are never oiled. We're never really bowling. It's like we're playing skeeball.
Rich Davis
Who are you, Pete Weber?
Steve Covino
Yes. I need to bowl on a real lane with some real balls and not rock and ball with neon lights.
Dan Beyer
But you don't have any marble reds,
Steve Covino
too, because these are like house balls that weigh 12 pounds and they're. They're pink and green. That's not how I bowl. That's fun, but I'm not taking it serious.
Rich Davis
You have. You're on bowling balls.
Steve Covino
Hey, hey there, buddy. Stay in your lane, all right?
Rich Davis
You have your own bowling ball still, of course. Then you bring it if we will. For real.
Steve Covino
Yes, but you gotta go when the lanes are oiled, or else when I'm throwing a hook like a semi pro, it's not gonna go in the opposite gutter because they're not oiled.
Rich Davis
How do you know if they're oiled or not? Like, I just go to a bowling alley. He does a belly flop down the.
Steve Covino
You gotta slide on your socks. Yeah. Anyway, look at the date on this day in 2009. That's the year I was a dad for the first time. R. To give you a time reference.
Rich Davis
Well, actually, you know what? Around this time, you were getting it on, because in nine months from now, your daughter's birthday, right?
Steve Covino
So, yeah, 2009. My daughter's 16 now. Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen, who was 29 at the time, married New England Patriots superstar quarterback Tom Brady, who was 32 at the time, at St. Monica Catholic Church in Santa Monica, California. They got divorced, as you know, in 2022, and man, we were there for the whole ride.
Rich Davis
Tom and Giselle, grand opening, grand closing, almost 20 years later.
Steve Covino
I mean, but look, beautiful kids. As a result, they had a good run in today's world. I can't say that's a failure. I mean, I've been divorced.
Rich Davis
Well, I mean, no, I mean it is a failure.
Steve Covino
I would say so.
Rich Davis
Celebrities to go.
Steve Covino
Celebrities to go. 20 years, that's like 120 years for the average person. You have to keep in mind, what does Chris Rock say about options? No one's trying to get with, you know, average schmoe. We're talking about Gisele and Tom Brady.
Rich Davis
You can say it's a good relationship and you know, you have beautiful kids out of it, but I don't think you could call a divorce of success.
Steve Covino
Well, I'd say they have beautiful kids as a result and they had 20 good years together. And that's just life nowadays. I mean, I know what you're saying, Rich. I'm just saying there's a positive spin on it. But I want you to start thinking about the drama. The drama couples, the power couples of our lifetime.
Rich Davis
Who's the best power couple of our lifetime?
Steve Covino
Rockstars. Athletes. Yeah.
Rich Davis

Podcast: The Dan Patrick Show (Covino & Rich segment)
Theme: Exploring AI in Sports Talk, Technology Throwbacks, and the Pete Weber “Who Do You Think You Are? I Am!” Anniversary
This lively episode of Covino & Rich (C&R), guest-hosting on The Dan Patrick Show, humorously explores the debut of “Robot Colin” (an AI emulating sports talk icon Colin Cowherd), reflects on game-changing tech through the decades, and celebrates the legendary outburst from bowler Pete Weber. With characteristic banter, hosts Steve Covino and Rich Davis invite listeners into a world where AI blends with classic radio, nostalgia meets innovation, and sports moments become immortalized memes.
“Covino and Rich work because they don't fake it. They're loose, they're funny, and they talk sports like real fans talk sports... they've got that hangout energy, but they'll still land a take when it matters…”
— Robot Colin (06:27)
“No chance. I'm not tucking you in.”
— Robot Colin (08:45)
“I don't feel bad. This is the Super Bowl. Everybody's recruiting, everybody's networking... Covino and Rich don't own a guy's future...”
— Robot Colin (07:20)
“My amazing old-ass grandma, who was in her 90s, ... goes, ‘Richie, I'll tell you the fact that you could put on your phone like directions and it'll tell you how to get there and be pretty close...’”
— Rich Davis (14:38)
“Who do you think you are? I am!”
— Pete Weber (22:41, clip replayed and discussed)
“I'm not going to sit here and pretend I'm a brand ambassador for Dude Wipes, but I respect the hustle, okay?”
— Robot Colin (32:47)

The episode is energetic and comedic, anchored by C&R’s chemistry. Layered with pop culture references, sports nostalgia, and current AI trends, the show walks the line between irreverent fun and genuine thoughtfulness about technology’s role in media and sports.
This C&R episode on The Dan Patrick Show captures a transitional moment where AI converges with sports radio, inviting enthusiasm, nostalgia, and healthy skepticism. Iconic moments like Pete Weber’s outburst are relived, while enduring themes—like the evolution of tech or the drama of celebrity couples—continue to captivate and entertain. If you missed the episode, you’ll feel both caught up and invited into the hosts’ ongoing conversation with fans about sports, pop culture, and the future of the medium itself.
