Main Segments & Key Discussion Points

1. The "Wood" Song & Kelsey/Jason and Taylor Swift Crossover

Timestamps: 00:56–02:41

• Lighthearted debate about Travis Kelce’s “Wood” song (referencing rumors, Taylor Swift, and pop culture’s current hyperfocus on the NFL/star relationships)
• Covino admits he "doesn't give a diddly squat about Taylor Swift music" but is into its cultural impact:

  "You can't expect me to care about music that my daughter listens to. I like it because she likes it, but I'll never like it for me." – Covino (01:44)

• The hosts agree the real story isn’t the music, but the confluence of the world’s biggest pop star and the NFL:

  "It's more of a pop culture thing than I care about Taylor Swift's music." – Rich (02:11)

---

2. "Razzing" and Sports Rivalries

Timestamps: 03:17–11:49

• The psychology and etiquette of “razzing” (playful or mean-spirited teasing about sports teams)
• Covino expresses his personal code:

  "I'm not like the razz type. Not with sports teams... I just choose to ignore it. I'm not taking the bait on this." – Covino (03:48)

• Listener calls share stories of avoiding or relishing competitive taunts, including moments of petty revenge and sports as a safe space.
• “Schadenfreude” and sports: Ben Maller called out for being the network’s biggest razz artist.
• Group consensus: Razzing is okay if close, but crossing boundaries—especially in someone’s home—is out of bounds.

  "If Ben Maller... laughed at the joy of my Niners losing a big game, I would not be friends with Ben Maller." – Rich (05:00)

• Petty moments of rooting against exes’ teams and coping with post-divorce antagonism are aired for laughs.

---

3. Mike’s Words of Wisdom (Recurring Segment)

Timestamps: 12:24–13:41, 24:50–26:09

• Weekly game where listeners repeat a witty maxim for a (literal) prize.
• This week:

  "Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes."

• The audience calls in; after a couple of attempts, a lucky listener recites it verbatim and gets a C&R turbo ball.

---

4. Viral Sports Memes, AI, and Misinformation

Timestamps: 13:41–20:12

• Covino describes a viral image of Joe Flacco flying economy as an NFL QB.
  • Turns out the photo is real, but two years old—not current as social media suggested.
• Dan Beyer fact-checks:

  "Now, a simple Twitter Google search would show that this picture is like two years old." – Dan Beyer (16:00)

• Broader discussion about how hard it is to verify what’s real or AI-generated anymore—a sentiment that resonates with the audience and drives the conversation.

  "How do you know what to believe anymore?" – Covino (17:29)

---

5. Travel Pet Peeves (Listener Calls & Personal Gripes)

Timestamps: 19:06–21:53

• Topic pivots to personal and listener travel complaints:
  • Being forced to tip for unnecessary “help” at resorts (Rich: "You got to give some guy like a 10 or 20 because he carried your bag..." – 19:42)
  • Having to check carry-ons due to late boarding (Rich)
  • Annoying flight announcements that interrupt inflight entertainment (Covino)
  • Getting scammed out of inflight snacks/drinks due to fictitious turbulence (Danny Beyer)
• Callers and hosts share relatable annoyances, mining laughs and solidarity.

---

6. "Midweek Major" Hot Takes

Timestamps: 26:16–33:35

A rapid-fire breakdown of trending news and controversies:

• Bad Bunny's behavior at a Yankees game:
  • He didn't stand during "God Bless America." Hosts opine it’s a "bad look" ahead of his Super Bowl halftime show.

    "It’s not a uniting type of look... Stand up and sing along." – Covino (28:04)

• Conor McGregor's 18-month suspension:
  • Suspension for missing drug tests, but timing allows him to appear at a major upcoming UFC event. Disagreement over its importance, with some seeing it as major and others as a non-issue.
• NCAA to allow betting by student-athletes on professional sports:
  • Hosts alarmed, calling it "major" and potentially irresponsible:

    "Shouldn't we be teaching them financial responsibility?... It feels irresponsible." – Covino (32:42) "Slippery slope. Gambling is not for all... you know how many college kids are going to get a gambling trouble?" – Rich (32:54)

• Joe Flacco to start at QB for Bengals; questions about NFL travel policies resurface.

8. NBA Growth Story: Victor Wembanyama Still Growing

Timestamps: 36:24–42:57

• NBA pre-season buzz about emerging star Victor Wembanyama (Wemby) growing even taller over the offseason (up to 7’5”).
• Discussion of how players’ late growth spurts shape NBA careers; personal stories from hosts and crew.

  "Just when you thought this guy couldn't get any more big and dominant... Wemby just grew 2 inches in the off season." – Rich (41:52)

• Speculation on how exceptional size + agility will change the game:

  "No one's ever been 7’5”, three-point finger roll. It's coming soon." – Covino/Danny Beyer (42:36)

[Covino]

Oh yeah.

[Rich]

Hey, let me ask you Kavito yeah.

[Covino]

How do you feel about Wood, the Kelsey song, or the model on the side of his bed?

[Rich]

Oh no, no, not the big black dude, the song. Because they asked Travis that on his podcast.

[Covino]

Travis said any reference to him is an honor and Jason really leaned into it. He's like, no, no, no. The song about your junk. How do you feel about it? It was a great song. They both agreed it was a great song. I'll tell you this, and I say this respectfully, I don't give a diddly squat about Taylor Swift music. So that's my take on it. Covino and Rich, we be rocking out. Let's go.

[Rich]

You'd give a diddly squat if someone wrote a song about your junk?

[Danny Beyer]

Kelsey said.

[Covino]

How do you know they haven't?

[Danny Beyer]

Kelsey said he thinks he's more like a Japanese maple sometimes you can see.

[Covino]

So funny because she makes redwood references in the new song Wood about Travis. To be honest, Rich, I just think I rock too hard for Taylor Swift music. I don't know man. I'm not into it. I don't hate on it. Not hating, just stating. It's just not for me. You can't expect me to care about music that my daughter listens to. It's as simple as that. I like it because she likes it, but I'll never like it for me.

[Rich]

I mean, I think this in particular because there's so much crossover with the biggest artist in the world right now and the NFL, which is the biggest sports brand in the world. It's more of a pop culture thing than I care about Taylor Swift's music.

[Covino]

She's song when Luis Miguel sang it very Similar, Very. Because some of her songs are very similar to other songs. And I'm just teasing now. I'm just kidding. But I did listen out of curiosity. That's fair. That's the same way I want to see K Pop Demon Hunters, because everybody's talking about it.

[Rich]

Oh, you mean my daughter's Halloween costume already.

[Rich]

All right, well, with that said, couple quick phone calls about Razin. Cavino has this theory that, you know, when his Yankees are losing.

[Covino]

Well, I live by something called do unto others, right?

[Rich]

Yeah.

[Covino]

And.

[Rich]

Oh, you made that up.

[Covino]

I did. You like that?

[Rich]

Hold on, wait. You made the sub. What does it do?

[Covino]

Well, actually, I assessed a lot of things. Like, would I do that? And if I wouldn't, then I'm like, I think you stink.

[Rich]

I used to wear a bracelet, by the way. I'd say what it would. It was wwcd. What would Covino do? But I don't.

[Covino]

I'm not like the razz type. Not with sports teams. Not especially if I don't know you that well. Or maybe that's your way of trying to get to know someone better, Right? You're just trying to tease them, neg them, get under their skin. It's like a. Flirting of sorts. I don't know. I don't do it because I don't do it.

[Rich]

Well, you and I have talked about how when you assess your buddies, your co workers, guys at the barbershop, your college pals from when you were younger, some people know how to bust balls and some people don't. Like some people, they're like, no, you're just being rude. And other people are good at it. And I think some people maybe just don't know if they're good at it or not.

[Covino]

Yeah. I'm not saying I get mad and.

[Rich]

I pull my hair out and I'm.

[Covino]

Like, oh, you son of A. I just, I just choose to ignore it. I'm like, I'm not. I'm not. I'm not taking the bait. That's really it. I'm not taking the bait on this. I'm not going to like, hit you back with something mean about your.

[Danny Beyer]

You know who on our network loves to give people the business about their teams?

[Covino]

Boy, Ben Ma. Oh, yeah.

[Danny Beyer]

He calls it schadenfreude. And it is to the 100th degree with that guy. Like, if you come in and your team just lost, your head is down because you're like, and I gotta listen to this guy. And he does. He starts his monologue with an evil laugh and looks right at you and points at you.

[Covino]

It's like Stephen A. Laughing at the Cowboys fans.

[Rich]

Yeah, but Stephen A. Is good at that.

[Covino]

He's good at it.

[Rich]

And I'm not saying Ben Maller's not. But for instance, if Ben Maller like, laughed at the joy of my Niners losing a big game, I would not be friends with Ben Maller. I'd be like, yeah, I don't need a guy like you in my life. Beat it.

[Covino]

Beat him.

[Rich]

Maller. That you big oaf.

[Covino]

He sees another guy that's really great at it. Like, he's that typical loudmouth late night sports guy that just wants to rub it in and Raz you.

[Danny Beyer]

Yeah. And then if you try to ask him about his team, he deflects and he's like, no, no, no. I'm their biggest critic. I told you about this, about my team.

[Rich]

Yeah, Clippers. I mean, you think I am easy on them?

[Covino]

God bless you, Danny G. For being able to put up with that.

[Danny Beyer]

Well, I've been able to push back on that guy and argue with him to where I unravel what he's trying to say.

[Covino]

But then you're taking the bait because now you're arguing with the guy. Right. So your thoughts on Raz? Zach and I put up the. With the phone calls. Hey, Zach.

[Caller Zach]

What's up, hooligans? You guys finally let me talk.

[Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich]

What's up, buddy? You're up.

[Caller Zach]

So a couple things. Raiders. I mean, my dad will just get up and leave in the middle of the game. He doesn't want to hear it from anybody. He turns off his phone, he's done. But so I grew up a Raiders fan and I got my buddy, he was in Michigan, he's a huge Detroit fan. We pump each other up when it comes to our teams because we've both been in the dumps for so long. But I'm also a Seattle Mariners fan because I spent some time in the Northwest and he actually ignored his phone call a couple times already. He's been trying to call me and give me a hard time.

[Rich]

Yeah, I'll be honest, I'm no joke. If my team loses, like when the Mets lost that final game of the season when they could have made it in, I saw people that called me and I'm like, if you think I'm answering that Jo's phone call, if you think, if you think I'm going to respond to, I'll see text messages like, oh, I know what this text is about. Yeah, no thanks. I don't play along.

[Covino]

Hey, Zach, thank you very much.

[Rich]

Appreciate you.

[Covino]

Shout out to Idaho. What up Dave in Pennsylvania. What up Dave? You're on the Aveeno and Rich show.

[Caller Zach]

Hey guys, just wanted to share first off that as you get older, you definitely mature. I'm not nearly how I used to be, however, being a lifelong Steelers fan. When I first started dating my wife more than 30 years ago, my wife's family was all Browns fans. So the Steelers playing the Browns for the third time, it was in the playoffs that year. They had already beat them twice in the regular season and well, Steelers end up winning. So both my father in law and his sister worked in the same machine shop. So I ended up sending a funeral bouquet with a card that says my condolences on your loss. And it was a black and gold arrangement. And they go hang out with my mom and brother.

[Covino]

Yeah, man, sounds cool. Seriously, Maniacs Sports baby games is what I call it now. Speaking of the Browns, Speaking of the Browns. Db, you got something to say?

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah, I got something to say.

[Rich]

What up, buddy? Yo, D.B. you got something to say?

[Dan Beyer]

First of all, I've never cheered harder than against an ex girlfriend's team. Okay. I don't know if you guys have ever been there. Like at that point, there's a girl maybe you dated.

[Covino]

Well, I see significant other relationship. I don't know if that counts, but.

[Dan Beyer]

Like if I knew that they were a fan of a certain team, like I just completely root against them. How do you guys feel though about analysis of your game going on? And I'll just use an example for Rich here. Let's just say it's a Mets game and let's just say they're. The bats aren't going. You're in a group chat. Somebody's like, man, Mets bats pretty silent today. Like it's, it's innocent.

[Covino]

Are they Mets Fans saying that.

[Dan Beyer]

No, no, they're neutral.

[Covino]

All right? They're neut. Yeah, I don't want to hear that.

[Rich]

I don't want to hear their comment.

[Dan Beyer]

Agreed.

[Covino]

100% don't.

[Dan Beyer]

Yes, I'm with you.

[Covino]

That's it. Who asked you?

[Dan Beyer]

Correct. It's not even negative, but they're pointing out something that is obvious, that is a big thorn in your side at that point.

[Rich]

Funny. This is personal, but funny. My brother just finalized. He went through a divorce. His ex's family, they're from the Maryland area, all big Ravens fans. My brother is relishing in how bad the Ravens are. Like, every week, my brother's like, no, the loss, bro. He is relishing in how they must be sad about the Ravens.

[Danny Beyer]

The fans are booing, and he's standing up and cheering.

[Covino]

In his defense, you have a lot of petty feelings when you're going through divorce or breakup, so I totally get that.

[Rich]

And that's what it is.

[Covino]

Very petty.

[Rich]

Let me give you one more petty one, and then we'll move on. We'll do Mike's words of wisdom, give away some prizes. But, you know, I'm a big Niners fan post season a couple years ago. You guys know I like to have people over to watch a little postseason football. I invited one of the moms and the kids from school over, one of my daughter's friends, and they have two little boys, and the mom came over. No horse in the race. She sort of thought it was, like, fun to root against my team.

[Covino]

Oh, that's so corny.

[Rich]

And I was trying not to be a child, Danny G. But I pulled my wife aside, get her out of here. And I said, you gotta talk to her.

[Covino]

Get a load of her.

[Rich]

And my wife's like, what do you mean? I go, I'm rooting on the 49ers, and I think they were playing the Cowboys. It was like a wild card, a divisional game. And I go, babe, for real, though, you gotta. You gotta pull her aside and say, yeah, I was a little.

[Danny Beyer]

This is Rich's home court advantage right here.

[Rich]

Cool it. I might have actually said the phrase, yeah, tell her to cool it, or she's got to leave.

[Covino]

This is my. What is it? Casa Dojo house.

[Rich]

You don't take it at home.

[Covino]

This is your safe space. Yeah, this is my home.

[Rich]

Now, if Dan Beyer came over and it was Seahawks, Niners fair. He's a Seahawks fan. But if, you know, if it was Niners bucks this week and someone just came over my house and Just for the heck of a cat. Let's go, Baker. Wait.

[Covino]

What are you doing?

[Rich]

You're at my home.

[Dan Beyer]

Also, there's.

[Rich]

There's one thing. Being obnoxious and rooting against, like, someone's team in their own home. And then, like, if you're just talking about a game and you're so insecure that you can't even admit that your team is sucking, or, like, I can't. Like, they have 20 yards rushing. You have to be able to, like, look at your own team. Unbiased. Yeah, of course. And you have to be able to take it a little bit.

[Covino]

Not in your own mojo dojo concept.

[Dan Beyer]

But you don't need somebody telling you that, like, I know that I can also. My team can't. Can't move the football. Or I can see my team is striking out left and right.

[Rich]

I had a football party that. Remember the game where the Niners got blown out by the Eagles because Brock Purdy got hurt? And they had, like. Remember, by the end of it, they didn't have a quarterback. They didn't even have the quarterback. NFC Championship game that year. I remember having people over, and I'm.

[Covino]

Like, yeah, I know.

[Rich]

I know what's going on. Like Dan said, you don't need to analyze this game in front of you. Give him the cold stare and you go, thanks. I got it.

[Covino]

Appreciate it.

[Rich]

Got it.

[Covino]

Now, our boy Dave from Pennsylvania brought up the Browns. I have a question about Joey Flacco. Okay, Joey Flacco, your new Bengal. And I'm going to pose that question right after Mike's Wednesday words of wisdom. The rules are simple. We try to spread the wisdom that we are so fortunate and lucky to get every day for Mike, who runs this place. We try to pass it down, pass it along to you guys. And if you could repeat it verbatim, it's simple. You win. You get a hold of one of our turbo balls, you get to grab onto one of those bad boys.

[Rich]

All right, well, let's take a listen. Mike's words of wisdom.

[Covino]

It's time for the guy that runs this place.

[Dan Beyer]

Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place. He is not in charge of everything. He has no power over really, anybody here. He does not run this place.

[Rich]

It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes. That's so dumb.

[Danny Beyer]

And I love it.

[Covino]

And I love it. Yes.

[Rich]

Should we go do it one more time? Because it came in a little low there. It's a little wordy too.

[Covino]

All right, here we go. I love that, though.

[Rich]

Here you go. Before you judge someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

[Covino]

I feel like he had more to say than he was like. Nah, I'm good right there.

[Rich]

That's it. Yeah. You know what?

[Covino]

It was good right there. If you could repeat that verbatim, you win one of our new and improved turbo balls, our Nerf footballs and an IOU.

[Danny Beyer]

An IOU're coming.

[Covino]

They're coming. 87799 on Fox. And if you won in the past, they're different. So be calling, be dialing 87799 on Fox for your chance to win. And I have a question again. In a world where we don't know what to believe anymore, is Michael Jackson doing stand up now? All this weird AI stuff that you see every day. I don't know what to believe.

[Rich]

What is it called? Sora.

[Covino]

Sora. Yeah.

[Rich]

Spot made one earlier of Kavino on the Yankees and honestly, it was unbelievable.

[Covino]

So weird. I know. You know what? We'll probably. Let's post it at Kavino and Rich. We'll post it at Kavino and Rich on social media so you can take a look. And he did it in 10 seconds, so I'm sure it could be better than that.

[Spotty]

It was way more majestic than judges home run.

[Covino]

I saw a photo, and I'm assuming it's real, of Joey Flacco flying economy.

[Danny Beyer]

Yeah, it says reports confirm that Flacco indeed flew commercial.

[Covino]

So he's flying economy for a big game. And then there's speculation that, well, this is the second time he's playing the packers in four weeks. He already studied film and he's prepared for him. Why does he need better accommodations? He already won. He's ready to go. Joey Flacco, your new quarterback, a veteran in the game, flies economy. I'm not saying he's too good. I don't think anyone's ever too good for economy. But you should never be complaining if this dude is flying economy with all the money he has. Are the Bengals that cheap? I mean, that's another thing.

[Rich]

I mean, if you want to remember, put on your thinking cap. Remember it was weeks ago that Boomer Siason, who does his radio show on WFAN in New York, he went on a rant with his co host, Geo. Remember they talked about how they wanted to honor Boomer as part of the ring of Honor. And they, they were going to have some of the alumni come back and they, they gave Boomer a, like a Groupon discount code for the hotel. Like they didn't even. They didn't even put them up in the hotel. I forgot about that. That doesn't even put up Boomer Esiason at a hotel.

[Covino]

But how could you feel excited about joining a new team, Bunk? I don't know, man. He's a. He's a Super bowl champion. I'm not saying he's above the law or above anybody, but to be sitting there waiting for the granny to get her luggage out of the overhead. That's not how he should be approaching this situation.

[Dan Beyer]

Now, a simple Twitter Google search would show that this picture is like two years old.

[Spotty]

It's not even AI.

[Dan Beyer]

It's weird over somebody hasn't flown coach. It's just that he didn't do it from Cleveland to Cincinnati. Why do people want to disappoint the last 24 hours?

[Covino]

Old fashioned stupidity.

[Dan Beyer]

It's not AI.

[Covino]

You know what, it's deception.

[Rich]

Hold on, wait a second though.

[Danny Beyer]

So the AI overview right now is wrong then? Because it says. Yes, the reports are right.

[Rich]

Hold on.

[Covino]

For the record, it circulated amongst our group chat and we spoke to Danny G about it before the show.

[Dan Beyer]

I wasn't in that group chat either.

[Covino]

We all got got. But we did do our due diligence. We thought it was. And I'm like, are you sure it's not AI? You sure it's not fake? No, it was real. It was two years old.

[Dan Beyer]

Your due diligence was. Are you sure it's not fake? That was, that was your due diligence?

[Spotty]

I mean, because I'm relying the AI overview.

[Rich]

Yeah, that's your, Your Kavito's. Kavito's due diligence, Danny, you sure? What's your due diligence? Well, I, I was like, I got another picture.

[Covino]

Watching me.

[Danny Beyer]

To be fair, in our pre show meeting, Covino said I'm to present it on the air as we don't know whether or not this is done falsely.

[Rich]

Well, I'm not above this because I just got fooled. I. So you're telling me Icky woods didn't pick him up from the airport in an Uber?

[Caller Zach]

No.

[Rich]

How are you supposed to know it's from last week or from two years ago?

[Covino]

It kind of goes with the conversation. How do you know what to believe anymore?

[Rich]

Do this all the time.

[Danny Beyer]

We talked about this just the other day.

[Covino]

This is the worst.

[Dan Beyer]

I love your guys innocence. What's that?

[Spotty]

Isn't this what got Kimmel kicked off the air?

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah.

[Covino]

Thank goodness for Danny Byer for calling it out.

[Dan Beyer]

Someone apparently put it on a gift card like two years ago to a friend of Joe Flacco. And the overhead compartments all open behind him.

[Covino]

Let me try to save this and say if you ever complain about your travel accommodations, just remember what Joe Flacco had to go through two years ago. He had a flag when he was with who?

[Danny Beyer]

Well, there was some. There was some complaining recently from some of the Steelers players that they didn't get to fly first class to Ireland. That is a true story.

[Rich]

Well, I did say to Danny earlier today, in the NFL, a billion dollar organization, if there's not private planes for the teams and they are flying solo because of a trade, an acquisition, an injury, to not put these guys up first class is insane considering the money involved in these organizations. Plus these guys are all 250, 300, 400 pound beasts that are all 6, 5.

[Covino]

What do you have to squeeze into these seats? And I'm losing sleep trying to travel to places. I think they're a little of a higher investment.

[Rich]

Well, they're large men too.

[Covino]

Their knees won't even fit in there. So look, the conversation wasn't even about this to begin with. The conversation was, hey, there's this picture floating around of Flacco.

[Spotty]

Is he wearing a Ravens jersey?

[Covino]

And the conversation, I think he was with the Browns. Your accommodation pet peeves, your travel pet peeves. Like, what are they? That. Oh, that was really what we were getting.

[Rich]

I got, I got it. I got a travel pet peeve.

[Covino]

Let's hear it. 8, 7, 7, 9, 9 on Fox.

[Rich]

One of my travel pet peeves, because I'm not a cheap guy, I try to be generous and nice. One of my pet peeves is on that rare occasion you get to go away with the wifey.

[Covino]

Oh, boy.

[Rich]

You go to a resort, you check in, they give you the glass of champagne, like, oh, welcome, you're in Aruba, the Bahamas, Mexico somewhere. And they like insist on carrying your carry on to your room. And you're like, no, no, I got it. And then you go to the room and like, literally it's down the hall. And then you got to give some guy like a 10 or a 20 because he carried your bag and he.

[Covino]

Slaps his hand out there waiting for a tip and that's when you give him a low five.

[Rich]

That's why you like Kevin McAllister and you give him your gum. Yeah, you know what? Rob Schneider rubbing his fingers together, that's.

[Covino]

Such a great one. I mean, everybody hates that. So I. That's where we were going. Anyway. It wasn't about. Now we're taking your phone calls on how cheap are the Bengals. It was. What are some of your travel pet peeves if you travel in economy? What are some of the things that grind your goat when it comes to travel and accommodations?

[Danny Beyer]

I was just going to say rich because of that reputation the Bengals have. Whoever put this out there all day knew that we'd fall for it.

[Rich]

You know what? I know it's my own fault because you could pay to go to a zone one, zone two, group two, three, four. I know you can pay your way up the list. But my biggest pet peeve is when I try to be cheap and I'm doing a quick little flight or something, and I'm in one of the later zones, and they make you check your carry on, and the whole reason you took a carry on was to avoid baggage claim. That is a travel pet peeve, and I get it. But I, you know.

[Covino]

No. Grinds my goat. And I know it's grinds your gears, gets your goat. Get out of my face. I get it.

[Rich]

Don't raz. Don't razz me.

[Covino]

Don't razz me. Whatever. You know what squeezes my shoes when you're sitting there, like, waiting for a flight to take off and you start watching a game or you just put the movie on and. And then they keep interrupting you with the stupid flight announcement, though.

[Rich]

So loud.

[Covino]

But then, no, sometimes you can't even hear it. It's like, what's the point of your little spiel, your little captain Spiel, if I can't even hear you? And that. But that really does bother me. I'm not gonna lie. And if you travel a lot, you know what I'm talking about.

[Rich]

You wanna. You're interested in this credit card.

[Covino]

No, I'm not.

[Rich]

Get away from me.

[Covino]

So that's where we were going. Either way, it's a great jump off.

[Danny Beyer]

I was on the studio lines. Did you guys mention the turbulence announcements?

[Covino]

Oh, I don't wanna hear about that.

[Danny Beyer]

Okay, listen, we've had this happen on some of our work trips where we're all sitting there and they get on the. Their intercom and they say, there. There may be some turbulence, so we're not gonna have drink service and there's absolutely no turbulence, and we don't get a drink.

[Rich]

Yeah. Cavino grabs my thigh the whole time.

[Covino]

I'm like, they're waiting for. They're scamming me out of my ginger ale and cranberry. My cran apple.

[Rich]

All right, well, you know.

[Spotty]

Waffle cookie.

[Covino]

Yeah. Where's my waffle cookie?

[Rich]

Do we. How about we do this? Do you want a break? We'll come back, we'll get a winner for Mike's words of wisdom.

[Danny Beyer]

That's perfect.

[Rich]

And then we'll go to spots midweek. So a lot of fun coming up.

[Spotty]

[Covino]

Vent on the extra stuff. Like we could have a whole two Hour show based on, like, you were just talking about our travel pet peeves.

[Covino]

Exactly.

[Rich]

I thought of another one and Sam's like, yeah. I said, you ever start watching a movie and the flight lands and you have, like, 10 minutes left in that movie and then you have to. Then when you get to go home and somehow find the remainder of that movie.

[Covino]

Yeah. So there's so many of them. So please chime in. At Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio, we'll try to get back to that into all your phone calls.

Be a mile away.

[Rich]

Well on his way, but just missed one a little.

[Covino]

You blew it.

[Rich]

All right, Phoenix and Patrick, you're on. What's up, Mud? Mud, what's up?

[Caller Zach]

Hey, what's up, fellows? How we doing?

[Covino]

What up, buddy?

[Caller Zach]

Hey, so before you judge someone, walk.

[Covino]

A mile in their shoes. That way when you do judge them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes. Yes. Let's go, Phoenix.

[Rich]

Patrick.

[Covino]

I like his inflection on that, too. Like, he left me like there was more to it, but there wasn't. I appreciate that.

[Rich]

Yo, Patrick, thank you for checking out the show, man.

[Danny Beyer]

Appreciate it. Yes. You're gonna be added to our mailing list for a Nerf football. Okay.

[Dan Beyer]

No offense.

[Caller Zach]

Go Jays.

[Covino]

Hey, no, thank you.

[Rich]

I appreciate that razzing you.

[Covino]

Hey, rooting for your team. It's all great.

[Rich]

Yeah.

[Covino]

Thank you so much, guys, for playing along. We do that every Wednesday. You know what else we do Something called mid week Major.

[Rich]

What Covino and Rich gets you over the middle of the week with midweek Major.

[Covino]

Ooh, I love that.

[Rich]

We throw sports and pop culture headlines.

[Covino]

And topics at the fellas.

[Rich]

And it's like the kids Say, that's so mid week. Definitely major CNR scoring midweek. Major.

[Danny Beyer]

Gotta go really quick here to give Spotty seven full minutes. All right. Before we hand things over to the number one and only host, we are gonna roll the two big red love dice. Looks like Covino went already.

[Covino]

I rolled a seven, I rolled a six, so I went.

[Danny Beyer]

Ah. Covino gets the first take.

[Covino]

Six, seven, six, seven.

[Danny Beyer]

And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Blum from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Spotty Boy.

[Spotty]

Hi, guys. Let's jump right in. We'll start with last night's Yankees game.

[Danny Beyer]

That.

[Spotty]

That's more specifically who was in the stands, and that is none other than super bowl halftime performer Babooni.

[Rich]

Babooni.

[Spotty]

Two things actually happened last night. First, I'll start with the positive. He actually snagged a foul ball.

[Rich]

How is it possible?

[Covino]

He was just.

[Rich]

I never get a foul ball.

[Spotty]

He was just sitting. I know you've never got a foul ball. He's just sitting in the stands. Third inning, Anthony Santander at the plate. Fouls.

[Dan Beyer]

One off.

[Spotty]

Ball goes up, lands right at his feet. Didn't even have to move. He just picks it up, takes it, throws it back in the stands. But the other thing that was going on, apparently during God bless America, when everyone was standing up, enjoying showing their patriotism, Bad Bunny scene, just sitting there, not making a move. So we got a lot of attention on that, especially over the controversy on, you know, the conservative side over his appearance at the halftime show. Super bowl halftime show. So what do you think? Midweek or major?

[Covino]

This is is major. It really is. I gotta kind of edit myself. I don't want to come across like Eric Dickerson here because he went on a rant. How does he not stand? He's performing at the super bowl, right. This is one of the most American things we have. And he's not standing for the national anthem. He's too cool for that.

[Dan Beyer]

I don't know.

[Covino]

I think that's an erupt way. God bless America. Still, he wasn't standing. Okay. And snagged the foul ball. He snagged nothing. And I'm not hating on Bad Bunny. I hope he does great. But he snagged nothing. He was kind of like, ah. And it sort of fell and he picked it up. Yeah, I agree. Snagged nothing.

[Rich]

He didn't count. No, I got.

[Covino]

He got. He got lucky there. But I do think it's a bad look. I think if you're trying to unite the country and we're trying to have A great time. We're trying to enjoy the Super Bowl. There's already a lot of criticism there. It's gonna hurt you to stand up. You're at the game, everybody's watching. Everybody knows you're there. Stand up and sing along.

[Rich]

I think I agree. I think this is major.

[Dan Beyer]

Definitely major.

[Rich]

Agreed with Camino on every front. So to be honest, if you want to just move along, I agree that he didn't snag a fly ball, a foul ball. He picked up a ball that fell on the floor. Difference. And honestly, like, I just think it's in bad taste. Politics aside, like, stand up for the anthem. Be respectful.

[Covino]

You're a U.S. citizen.

[Rich]

You're a citizen. Let's go do it.

[Covino]

Isn't that the thing? Yeah. He is a citizen. Citizen. So, you know, and I'm not hating on the guy at all. I'm excited for his performance. I don't think it's a. I don't think it's going to help him. I don't think it's a positive.

[Rich]

Right.

[Covino]

Yeah. Like in that moment, kind of a bad look.

[Rich]

It's not a uniting type of look. Right.

[Spotty]

All right. News broke today. Conor McGregor stuck on the sidelines after an 18th month suspension by the Combat Sports Anti doping, which works with the ufc. And the reason he just basically didn't show up, he goes to three scheduled drug tests. So McGregor missed test in June and September of 2024, and while he owned up to it, the penalty still stands. Technically, could have been worse. He got six months shaved off for accepting responsibility. His suspension suspension officially runs from September 20, 2024 to March 20, 2026, which means he will be able to appear at the official White House UFC celebration in June of 2026, which everybody is anticipating. So midweek or major.

[Covino]

What do you mean? Appear? Like in the. In the octagon or like in the stands?

[Rich]

Hey, you didn't. You got Aaron Judge on your mind. He said that it gets backdated so that year and a half actually ends before the White House thing.

[Spotty]

He'll be able to participate.

[Covino]

So he's able to. Yes. Okay. I wasn't sure about that when I originally read the story myself. Participate. I think he's dope. I really do. I don't know how you missed these appointments if. If UFC and fighting again is your priority, but if that still means we get to see him at this big event, I'm okay with it. So this is major because you don't want to have this big event without big names like Conor McGregor.

[Rich]

Yeah, I think it's mid because I think either way Donald Trump on his 80th birthday would have been like, I pardon him, whatever that would mean. But I think he would have made it happen anyway.

[Covino]

So I mean I do think you.

[Rich]

Need another Puff Daddy also wants a.

[Covino]

Headlining, a co headlining fight. I think you need that. But the fact that he's available for this because he already made the announcement that assigned and done is a done deal. I think this major. Yeah, we didn't want to risk him not being there.

[Spotty]

All right. The NCAA officially approved a proposal that lets Division 1 athletes and staff bet on professional sports.

[Rich]

Bet, bet, bet.

[Spotty]

So yeah, so historically student athletes have been banned from engaging in sports betting at any level, professional, college or amateur, for any sports that have championships. But the NCAA is saying go ahead. They're framing it as integrity, protection and healthy habits somehow. Somehow. In order for the proposal to go through though, it would need to go for approval through Division 2 and 3. The potential shift comes amid growing number of alleged betting violations and student athletes over the previous years. A lot of huge scandals have come out of that. So just trying to avoid that, of course fans are scratching their heads like how can they let athletes participate in this? It's definitely conflict of interest. Midweek or major.

[Covino]

I'll say mid. Because gambling has become such a major mainstream part of even what we do. Right. So I don't want to double talk and say this is terrible meanwhile and sign up for this and that here on our show and use code covino enrich. But to promote this to student athletes, not just athletes, student athletes to me is a little, I don't know, a little interesting. How about that for a good choice of words? Because shouldn't we be teaching them financial responsibility?

[Rich]

Yeah, I think this is, this is major. Because listen, slippery slope gambling is not for all right? I mean like gambling, we've taken it. We went from gambling's the devil to.

[Covino]

Hey, every grown up though rich.

[Rich]

I know, that's what I'm saying. Like a responsible, you know, they prey on college kids. Hey, sign up for this credit card with a 24% interest rate for a beach towel.

[Spotty]

I think I still have one.

[Rich]

I mean so I mean like they prey on dumb kids. Like you know how many college kids are going to get a gambling trouble? That's why, you know, when you're an adult listening to Fox or ESPN or any network, you can handle gambling and doing a little parlay or something because you're a grown up. These kids are the dummies that sign up, like I said, for credit cards and things they don't know the ramification of.

[Covino]

I'll say this respectfully, it feels irresponsible.

[Rich]

And because they're athletes, it's like it's just a bad slippery slope. That's it.

[Spotty]

If they're doing it anyway, though, is it better that it's now just sanctioned?

[Rich]

Yeah, I guess so. Nah, it's prohibited.

[Covino]

Like I said, teach them financial responsibility. Don't make it. Okay.

[Rich]

Well, thank you, Spotty. Save all your other stories for someone else. Let's go to Dan by for an update. Db, what's going on, man?

[Dan Beyer]

Guys, in the America League Divisional series, there will be a Game 5 fly ball, left field.

[Covino]

It's deep.

[Rich]

It's got a chance.

[Covino]

And it's gone.

[Rich]

A home run.

[Covino]

Wow. Half a day. Javi Baez, two run shots, seven three. Tigers in the sixth.

[Dan Beyer]

It was all part of nine unanswered runs by the Tigers scoring seven times in the fifth and sixth innings. Tigers win today over the Mariners nine three win game four to force a game five in Seattle on Friday. Mariners are going to wait to name their starter. You know who the Tigers are going with? Tarek Scuba will get the ball coming up on Friday.

[Rich]

Oh, yeah. Who's calling that? I thought it was. Is that. Is that Adam? Amen. Adam. Amen.

[Dan Beyer]

Adam Amin.

[Rich]

Adam Amin. Yeah, he's great. Another great podcast.

[Dan Beyer]

Yeah, this is Tigers Radio Network on the call with that highlight, but yeah. Cubs are on top of the Brewers 42 right now, heading to the bottom of the fourth inning at Wrigley. Brewers had two runners on base, however, not able to do anything with it right now. So it's 4:2. Cubs on top of the brewers in at Wrigley. Brewers up two. Oh, in that series. Jays and Yankees about to get underway on Fox Sports 1 just after the top of the hour. Phillies and Dodgers, 9 o'cl Eastern time tonight in their game three in the National League. According to a report from the Guardian, North Carolina head football coach Bill Belichick has been in talks with the school about his buyout options as he could be on the verge of leaving the school. The report says assistant coaches have already reached out to other schools with Belichick looking for another landing spot either in media or with another team. Even more, the Guardian reports that sources were quoted as saying Belichick has been weird and distant the past few weeks and some assistant coaches have been unable to reach him during the team's bi week.

[Covino]

That's bad, man. Yes, it really is Bella Cheeks.

[Dan Beyer]

Bengals head coach Zach Taylor, named Joe Flack was the team starting quarterback for their game Sunday against the Packers. The opponent had something to do with it. He's played Green Bay this year, so.

[Rich]

He'S already gone through a week of prep. Now, the communication and the weekly rhythm.

[Dan Beyer]

Is maybe different, unique, but he's already prepared for this opponent. Yeah. So Flacco is going to get the start for Cincinnati, his former team, the Browns. They haven't decided who their backup is going to be. It'll either be Shador Sanders or Bailey Zappi. No practice for Lamar Jackson or the Ravens, Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray or 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy and Bucks forward Giannis. And Dedicumpo says he's committed to the team now that the season is underway. Guys, back to you.

[Covino]

Thank you, db and that's a great update. And you know Javi Baez with the big home run. Just so much excitement. We can't hear what's going on, but we could see what's going on. It's just electric this postseason.

[Rich]

Yeah. Ratings, ratings are up across the board. Attendance, everything.

[Covino]

Lots of big moments.

[Rich]

A great, a great year for baseball. All right. Hey, listen, there's a story in the NBA. I know. We're talking so much football and we're talking so much baseball. NBA right around the corner. Right. And there's a story, and it has to do with one of the big emerging stars in basketball. And it has to do with.

[Covino]

No, no, no. Growing. And still growing.

[Rich]

And still growing.

[Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich]

[Covino]

Yeah, gotta, gotta do the chauffeur gig, you know, on my daughter's personal chauffeur and then go home, watch the game. Can't wait.

[Rich]

Has your daughter, who by the way, Kavino's daughter's almost 16, has she ever like demanded like, dad, you need to do this like during a key moment of a Yankees game. Get out of here.

[Covino]

Yeah, I thought it beat it. I was like, what's that? Michael Jackson song? Yeah, beat it. I got time for that. Live from the FOX Sports Radio studio. Business fluctuations make running your manufacturing business complex. But staffing your business doesn't have to be Let express employment pros provide the workforce you need. Go to expresspros.com find a location near you. That's expresspros.com and Rich.

[Rich]

Yeah, buddy.

[Covino]

On a sad note, I just want to throw this out there. You know, I'm a fight fan. Yeah. Arturo Gotti's teenage son passed away at the age of 17 and they found him in an eerily situation like same situation that they found his dad in when his dad died. So 17 year old kid and promising boxer died and the story's developing. So just throwing that out there. If you're a fight fan, you remember all the joy that Arturo Gotti brought you, some of those legendary battles.

[Rich]

Oh, by the way, not to downplay that terrible story.

[Covino]

No, it's fine. It's a developing story that's just breaking in the past hour or so.

[Rich]

I have a retraction. Your Yankee game starts in 17 minutes. Oh, 7:08 Eastern, 408 Pacific. So we get out of here in like you know, five to ten minutes. You're going to have to listen to the first inning or so on the radio as you drive your daughter around anywhere she wants to go. Dad, I want Starbucks. Dad, drop me a cheerleading dad.

[Danny Beyer]

And then Dodgers at 6:08pm our time on the West Coast.

[Covino]

Now I hope all your teams win. We'll talk about it tomorrow. And we'll also do a little old school when 50 hits. We reminisce on Thursdays, so join us tomorrow. But you did a little NBA tease, so you got to give some little payoff.

[Rich]

Yeah, no, I was saying there's a, there's a story.

[Covino]

Maybe we can continue tomorrow.

[Rich]

And it has to do with growing a few inches.

[Covino]

Whoa.

[Rich]

That's what she said. Now you've heard these stories before, Danny, I'm sure you said you're more Versed in the NBA world than we are. You always hear these stories of some of these guys that are NBA stars. Went to college 6:1 and somehow sophomore year, you know, middle of college ages.

[Covino]

Or between junior, senior.

[Rich]

Yeah, they just. Yeah, they exactly.

[Covino]

My.

[Danny Beyer]

Some of the rookies in the NBA still growing.

[Rich]

My wife always tells a story about her cousin who I know is like some 30 year old beast who's like six six. They're like, oh, yo cousin, you know Charles, he was, he was like 5 10, went to college and all of.

[Covino]

A sudden they called him pipsqueak.

[Rich]

Yeah, all pipsqueak. And just when you thought this guy couldn't get any more big and dominant because he is starting to fill out. And as you know, when some of these big lanky guys start filling out, they become even more dominant, put a little muscle mass on. They, you know, they become men. Wemby. Wemby is now listed in the spurs media guide as 2 inches taller. Some places are saying he went from 73 to 7 5. And conservatively some are saying no, no, no, 73 to 74 and a half.

[Covino]

So. Well, you know how tall he was when he was a freshman? Six seven, six seven.

[Danny Beyer]

And you know what's crazy? He's 21. And they say it's very rare for men to grow after the age of 20.

[Covino]

That's what I thought, you know, but I have seen it in my personal life too. People grow like that. So many questions here, but you think the guy is big enough and he can't get any better wimp and Yama just grew 2 inches in the off season.

[Rich]

What in the hell?

[Covino]

He must be wearing height increasing Nikes.

[Danny Beyer]

He looked like a giraffe when I saw him at that NBA event we went to in Vegas.

[Rich]

It's unbelievable. Like we, we Kavino. You joked about something. Kavino goes, you ever think a guy like Wemby will try to master some unconventional play because he's so long and tall that what if he just took off from the three three point line and almost did like almost a finger. All because he could probably jump like almost so far that like. Or like some type of little pump fake move where it's a three pointer because he. No one has his size.

[Covino]

Absolutely it would be.

[Rich]

No one has his size. And agility. No one's ever been seven five, three point finger roll.

[Covino]

It's coming soon.

[Dan Beyer]

I'll set it first.

[Covino]

Yeah. Wait, he's still growing. It's possible his arms are going to stretch out like Michael Jordan.

[Rich]

What? He's saying is that if Michael Jordan could slam from spaceship, if Michael Jordan could slam from the free throw line, Wemby could do some type of finger roll or short range like floater. Floater or something. Yeah.

[Covino]

Well maybe we'll talk more about it tomorrow. Maybe some but props to him. He's still growing. We're Covino and Rich. Enjoy the rest of your games tonight.

[Rich]

Reave it there, Chi baby.

[Covino]

See you in the promised land. Go Yankee.

[Rich]

Go Dodgers.
