Teen Advocate
This is an iHeart podcast. Use of flavored tobacco by teens is a crisis. Tobacco companies use flavors like cotton candy, watermelon ice and cool mint to hook kids like me. They seem harmless, but they aren't. Addiction to nicotine sets us up for a lifetime of health problems. Organ legislators can do something about it. Passing Senate Bill 702A will keep flavored tobacco away from kids. But there are just a few short weeks left for lawmakers to act. Take action to protect kids like me at flavors.

We're doing Chipotle worker or WNBA player. Just our way to get you familiar, more familiar with the WNBA and of course, Chipotle workers. Yeah, that's. That's a ticket. Giving away prizes, bro. There you go. Yeah, that's it. Ticket. Yeah. I love that you have a John Lovitz clip on standby. Iowa Sam running the boards today. Iowa. Sam's losing his mind and we're reaping all the benefits. Okay, that's true. Very true. Thank you, guys. Hope you had a great night. Hope you enjoyed your hockey game. Four Thunders, Pacers tonight. So lots to look forward to this weekend. But first and first, mostly. Are they a Thunder? Is that if you were on the Oklahoma City Thunder? Like, if you're a Yankee, you're a Yankee. If you're a Dodger, if you're on the Thunder, are you a Thunder? I mean, what else would you be? Yes. What do you mean? Yeah, you'd be a Thunder. Like, you're on the Utah Jazz. You're like, I'm a Jazz. Like, what are you? Yeah, what else could you possibly be? I am the music of Jazz. But I'm just saying, if you are a member of a singular franchise, is Caitlin Clark a fever? That's. That's my point. I was saying, do the magic. Say, we're magic men. Yeah. Like, is Brianna Stewart. Are they magicians? I'm just saying, like, if you're a member of the Millywake Brewers. It's pronounced Millywaque, right? Of course it is. Let's check here. Let me see. Everybody knows. Hold on now. There it is. Let's check with Alice Cooper here. Actually, it's pronounced Miliwauke, which is Algonquin for the good land. Thank you, sir. Knew that. If you're a Milwaukee Brewer, you're. It's the Brewers. I'm a Brewer. When you're on the Oklahoma City Thunder, are you. I am a Thunder. Yes, you're a Clap of Thunder. Why is this so shocking for you? You just thought of it now. What else could you be? What else? Just what else could it be, is my question. I haven't thought about it. I haven't done edibles in a few months. Oh, okay. Well, if you have any other thoughts on that, let us know at 87799 on Fox. The answer is yes. You know what? I'll slide into the DMS of SGA right now. Ask him. You can see how he identifies. Do you identify as a Thunder? Now, we are going to talk some NBA. We'll talk a little baseball. But I'll tell you what, as 24 of the 32 National Football League teams. By the way, SGA just hit me back. Yeah, Thunder. Sometimes they're Donian, but Thunder is Thunder preference. It's Thundai if it's multiple thunders. With 24 of the 32 National Football League teams starting their camps mandatory, you just get that feeling that before you know it, we're going to be obsessed with the NFL again. Listen, the NHL, Stanley Cup Playoffs, bringing it. You know, as far as the amount of goals scored, the overtime games, you couldn't ask for anything more. You really couldn't ask for anything more. Basketball, you're looking to be tied up at 2 after tonight. OKC got to win based on the patterns. Or as Dr. Phil would say, based on the patterns. Based on the pattern. Patterns. Life is patterns, sports. Sometimes patterns you're looking at. They should tie it up tonight for sure. You know, no sweeps. You got likely two. Two in the NHL and NBA. Baseball superstars. Like, baseball's hotter than ever. Yet I could tell you I feel like in a month from now, we're all going to be honed in on, ooh, what's going to be happening with the NFL. And already, do you see how much fun Pete Carroll is having with the Raiders? This started last week. Danny G. Was super pumped about Pete Carroll's energy at the OTAs and that viral clip where he's pinning Thayer Munford Jr did everybody see that? He's so full of energy. You have to look it up. He's 73 years old. I'm like, that's my dad's age. I'm wondering if I could picture my dad with that type of energy. The answer is no. Can you picture your dad tussling with an NFL player? No. Here's what he had to say about it. We saw you wrestling Munford the other day. I wasn't wrestling with him. I pinned him. And today we see an equipment manager in the bubble rolling around after stretch. What are the stories behind these things? Yeah, I can't speak for the bubble thing that was. They trying to surprise me with that one, I guess. I don't know. I didn't know that was happening, so. But they're taking part in it. Obviously. You know, what we're asking these guys to do to play as well as anybody that plays this game. We're not setting expectations. Try to win a few games and make some progress. That's not what we're doing here. We're trying to take this as far as you can possibly take it. And it's the only. The only perspective that they have heard from me, and that's the only one I can even imagine. I can't think anyway else. Pete Carroll is the type of guy that only plays to want to go all the way. Like, Pete Carroll is not the mindset of, well, maybe if we can make it to 8 and 9 this year. Play. 500 football. Danny, you should be pumped as a Raiders fan that Pete Carroll has the mindset of, like, yeah, I'm not playing around. I'm 73. You know, I'm trying to win now, and I'm cautiously excited about it because I've heard this before. Other Raider fans have heard this before. We heard this with Antonio Pierce. So seeing is believing. In this case, I love his energy and everything, but is this going to translate into the win column? I mean, I hope so, but they have a lot of holes left on the defensive side of the football, so they're going to need a lot of backup players that would be backups on other teams to step up as starters for them this season. It sets the tone. You got to turn your mic on. It sets the tone so there's no downside to his energy and excitement and his expectations. There's no doubt about that. Does it translate in your mind like the. The message of fun? It would translate with little kids. It would translate maybe in, like, a high school. Do you think grown men, that energy of, let's have fun. I think fun is just. I don't think it goes out of style. I don't think you out. I don't think you outgrow fun. Yeah, but losing is not fun. And you also have to be realistic. What's up, db? As a Seahawks fan, I don't want to speak negative about Pete Carroll, because it's not negative. But it did run its course. Yeah, like it. Like it did. Like it works now with the Raiders, just like it worked early with the Seahawks, really did. Then all of a sudden, your young guys become veterans or they've won games or they've accomplished things, so those things aren't maybe as exciting anymore. So it does run its course. But right now for the Raiders, completely new and fresh, and maybe it'll work. But it really worked with the Seahawks, like it really did early on. It just. But it does run its course. It's all said that about, you know, Jim Harbaugh as well. Like, there are some coaches that they come in and they make a difference, but it's almost like a. There's an expiration date on it, correct? There's an expiration date at usc. Yeah. So why the Raiders would be any different, I don't know. But right now, take the good times when you can. Well, we saw the energy with the Seahawks when he was running routes. That was a few years back. And we're like, damn, he's got some moves, he's got some hands. And now we're seeing him wrestling linemen, and we're Seeing. Yeah. How excited he is and how energized he is with his big plastic bubble balls and everything else going on at camp. It got us thinking about Pete Carroll and the impact he's going to have with the Raiders. And it got us thinking about the coolest old guys or seniors or distinguished gentlemen, whatever you prefer. Distinguished gentlemen. And you know what? That's no knock. When I said his energy level at 73, man, I could never imagine my dad. My dad getting off the couch is a struggle sometimes when it comes to energy levels. He's healthy. You know how grouchy most of our dads who are in their early 70s are and they need two big naps a day. So it's not a knock on my dad or any. Anyone 73 who just would rather sit there and watch the news than get out there and tussle with young 20 somethings. He's an exceptional fella. He's an exceptional shape. Like, he's really full of energy, this guy. He's the exception. So based on that, who else comes to mind as far as exception or exceptionally cool for their age? It's a great question. And that's where we turn to you at 87799 on Fox, the most interactive show in sports talk radio. Let's get involved. Who do you think of when we say full of energy? Cool older dudes like, wow, hey, good for him. Something you strive to be in the future. Because when you see this dude, just the way he gets down to the ground, the way he picks up and shakes his lineman, the energy he has, the strength he has, the mobility he appears to have to keep up with these dudes the way he does. Man, that's. That's wild. We strive for that. At 73, you rarely see that rich. One of our favorite shows on Apple tv, Harrison Ford is one of the stars who I thought of them. I think of that too. Harrison Ford. He's not young, you know, he's no longer. He's even older. No longer Indiana Jones. I got one. 40 years. The show is shrinking. Got one that no one's going to say, so I'll get it out. The way we open up the phones, Danny G's on standby waiting just to say hi. 877-99-FOX. 877-9-FOX at covinoenrich@fox sports Radio. Based on Pete Carroll at camp and his next level energy and the cool factor. He's bringing the fun factor, the cool factor. I play this guy every Saturday and Sunday morning on Ozzy's Boneyard. I'm on Sirius XM, channel 38. Hard and heavy, classic rock. Not Ozzy, because I don't agree. He's the Prince of Darkness. Some say the Godfather of heavy metal, but I'm not saying. The beacon of health here. Yeah. Sammy Hagar, dude. I don't know how he does it. He's 77 years old, dude. The guy still parties. He's drinking his tequila. He's doing his Cabo Wabo energy. He hits those notes. This is the thing. There's guys like Axl Rose who can't hit their notes. They can't sing, and they sort of lost whatever it was that they had. Sammy Hagar does this effortlessly still. I'm not even a big fan, Rich. And I'm telling you, I'm impressed. The number one answer on the board in that category. Hagar, 77. I have the number one answer on the board in that category. Go ahead. And I know it's true because I'm not even a big fan spot. And I saw this guy a couple years ago. He's 75 years old now. Acts like he's 45 years old. The Boss, Bruce Springsteen. This guy saw a picture recently. I thought it was Woody Allen, but it was actually Bruce. We saw Bruce Springsteen at a small venue. He's climbing through the crowd, surfing the crowd. Yeah, but ripping on the guitar. Everybody's got a hungry. Huh? Is that. That's not as hard to sing as what Sammy hate can you sing? Can't drive 55 and hit those notes as Sammy Hagar hits. And he's older than the Boss, I think Bruce Springsteen. The show he puts on. Props to Bruce Springsteen. So many people are parents, age, that look at the Boss as their guy. Like he's in the conversation. But you said he beats Sammy Hagar. I don't know about that. How about a coach you guys talk about probably once a week? Bill Belichick has to be in this conversation. He has re entered. He has entered the conversation as of a few months. I was gonna say a year ago, I would have said, no, he's a grumpy old grouch. But based on what we've seen, all his little antics on the beach and his young girlfriend, you have to imagine maybe he's a little more fun than we thought. Moving up the charts with a bullet. Hey, he's having more fun than most of us. So, yeah, I guess. How is. I mean, I get it would be maybe in bad taste, but would there be no better spokesman for a product in the history of products than if Bill Belichick did some type of enhancement drug. I mean, like, there's never been ask and you shall receive. Maybe. Maybe you'll get a new sponsor soon. There's never been more of a perfect candidate. Candidate. Imagine if it was. I'm Bill Belcher. Maybe you'll see him. Yeah, maybe it'll happen. You see these blue chews or whatever? Like, come on. I don't know. We'll see. People ask me how I keep up with a 24 year old hottie. Here's how. Now, who comes to mind for you? You know, often we bring these conversations up. You know who always comes up? I'm just saying this because it always comes up. A Sam Elliott. If we're having a mustache conversation, he comes up. Cool old guys. He always comes up. Who comes up? When it comes to cool older fellas, I'll give you one because you might say, come on, dude. And what's the age limit, though? We have to have an age limit. No, no, I'm the youngest. You mean. Yeah. What's the. You got to collect Social Security. Okay. Which is what, like 66? 65? Yeah. You have to be over. How about over 65? Okay. RP cutoff line. Yeah, 65. Because some people just look old and. No. All right. You have to be 65 and older to make the discussion. I'm gonna give you this guy only because he's still funny in interviews. And I'm amazed because he's almost a hundred. Come on. You know, Dick Van Dyke still has his S together. Like you ever see him, he's like, all my friends and everyone know is dead, but I'm still kicking Dick Van Dyke. I know you're picturing him doing his funny dances in like the 60s and 70s. Last year. Yeah, I was going to say last year. The year before they did that Mary Poppins special. And he was obviously the guest of honor, but he was mixing it up with all the people that are currently in the entertainment business. And he is like the Godfather of Hollywood. How many people make it to 99, let alone could move? Birthday is in December, so he turns 100 in December. How cool is that? I read an interview with Dick Van Dyke and he attributed to. He attributed getting sober in his 30s to his longevity. Because he said he's like, I was a real party boy. And he's like, I gave up drinking when I was in my early to mid-30s. And I think that that's probably why he's made it to 99. You know, genetics and taking care of yourself. Not trying to be, you know, slim, good body or Mr. Health here. But I. I read two things that once you become senior citizen level, the two things that could help you live a longer life if you could cut out. They're saying, you know, don't go overboard with red meats or alcohol. That's like the demise of all older folks. They just diet and drinking. So cut those things out. There's a few that, that's because they fall, because they're drunk and they break their hips. That's. That's the reason why. You know what they're holding? A hamburger. The truth is, Danny, every time there's like someone old in the family and you're here, like they fell and broke their hip, you like, countdowns on. They're dying, unfortunately. I got one. No one's gonna say. Come on. Ready? Ready, Rich. Okay. I will find you and I will kill you. Guess how old Liam Neeson is. I was gonna say like 60. 50. 73. Same age as Pete Carroll. 73. Still a badass. And he's got that whole naked gun thing coming up. So 73. We think of him as younger, therefore, good for him because I don't even think of him as a 73 year old. So he's got to be in the conversation. I'm going to hit you up with a 92 year old. Ready? Which keeps going to the 90s. You're like way old. Yeah. I mean, you got to give props because the goal is to live that long, let alone not only live that long, still be active enough. Quality of life has a big thing part to do that. Like if you're like, you can't wipe your own ass. We're not talking about those people. Yeah, that's my dad's. Is it my dad's will? I can't wipe my. Kill me. Somebody kill me. He made us promise we would do that. How about a guy named Michael Kane? Michael Caine is 92. Have we seen him in a lot of stuff though, lately? I don't think he's that cool, to be honest. Michael kind just old. I do, you know, cross him off. I mean, he's had a great career. Okay. I have an actor who's cool and to me, he's always gonna be 50. And he was just in the sequel for, oh, Gladiator 2. We were talking about this a couple of weeks ago. Denzel Washington. He's 70 now. Yeah, I'm sorry, what? Yes. He's always going to be a younger dude. I know, I know that black don't crack and black guys look better older. But Denzel being 70 just makes no sense. Like I would have thought if you would have told me, how old is Denzel? I would have said 59, 60. 61. Denzel Washington, I have one for you again. We're getting the phones going. You guys ready? 87799 on Fox. Because Pete Carroll's so impressive, the only thing that really ages him is his Phil Donahue haircut. The. The gray hair that he has. The. The Leslie Nielsen. But otherwise the guy's in great shape and full of energy at mandatory camp. This gentleman is the epitome. I know it's epitome. Relax. The epitome of cool. He is everything that defines cool. He's 79 years old. 79. Hi. Hi. Wowie. Zowie wowie. Hi, Sam. Henry Winkler. Nice to meet you. The Fonz is 79. I heard you're on a TV show. I am. That's why I got to give him props. He has a new show that starts this weekend on the History channel. I knew this was an infomercial. Hazardous history that I'm a part of. So look out for it. But look, does he look older now? Of course. But is he one of the coolest guys we've. We've ever met? And not only the coolest icons, he's one of the nicest dudes that we've ever met in Hollywood. And he's still doing it. And everybody has a story about the Fonz or Henry Winkler. Everyone we've met has nothing but great things to say. How about his encounter with Patrick Mahomes? I have a spot for you at my table. My pleasure. How great is he? The font's got to be at easy because he's pushing 80. I'm with you. He's on the list. I'm going back to more 90 year olds. Man. You got a whole list of 90s. Got a binder full of 90 year olds. Yeah. Now we mentioned this guy the other day because after 30 years, Rick Moranis turns back to acting. Spaceballs 2. And from what I'm reading, a 90. Almost 99. Almost 99 year old Mel Brooks is going to be in the movie. He looks. He looks 99. I'll just say, you know what? I thought he was 199. But the fact that he is going to put on costume, get involved, and Mel Brooks is gonna be in the movie at 99. Yeah. You're automatically awesome and cool. If you could live and last that long and you're still doing it. I love it. I'm surprised that this dude's not on the top of your 90 year old list. He's 95, actually. Still runs a movie production company. They say he laps people on the lot. Clint Eastwood. Yeah, dude. Really great on that kind of shape. Yeah. He's still directing movies. He's still there. Yeah, he's still very active. Wow. Do you know, I read an article, remember, I thought I was saying, you know, red meat, not great when you're that old. His son, does he have like a handsome Scott Eastwood, right? The young actor? Yep. I would. Scott Eastwood said every morning his dad has the same breakfast and he's like so diligent about his workout and what he eats every morning. Clint Eastwood has salmon and brown rice every day of his life. Like he doesn't stray from the diet. Like he. You know when you're like trying to get really in shape and you're like, I'm gonna have veggies and salmon Meal prepping. Yeah, he does that at 95, which is hell. That's why I guess he's like that. Right? Health is wealth, man. Yeah. If you want to live a long life, you got to do these things. I got one again, no one's gonna say I'm bringing it back to sports Rich. In tribute to Pete Carroll. Same age. Same age. And he's still doing it. In fact, he still wears a baseball uniform at 73. Ron Washington, bro. I love that guy. Ron Washington is still doing it. Still laughing in the dugout, doing his thing. He reminds me like slick or something. I feel like he's still like, he's still grooving. 73, Ron Washington. I mean, he has a very little child because he had a way young girlfriend like a couple years ago. Al Pacino is 85 years old. You know, the older some of these guys get though, like the De Niro's, the less cool I think they are. I'm serious. De Niro, just politically. Yeah, Because Al Pacino just is turning a little creepy to me. How about Morgan Freeman? He's. Was he 88? Morgan Freeman, he's still cool, dude. He's got the coolest voice there ever was. I thought you were going to say your fellow. He's an earring still, doesn't he? He does. I thought you were going to say your fellow Lakers fan who made an appearance a year ago. Right. Didn't he go back to a Lakers game one time last year? Jack. Oh, that's right, Jack. Nicholson is how old now? He's Jack Nicholson's got to be. He's 88. 88 years old. He doesn't have Pete Carroll's energy. No, exactly. He's not. He's not a beacon of health like that guy, for sure. So as we shout out all these old men that still are cool, do you think that 73 year old Pete Carroll's energy connects to these young Raiders and should the expectation be high? I guess I really do feel like this. Not just because Danny's a Raiders fan. I feel like the Raiders are one of those teams that when they're good, I think it's just good for the league. Like, you know how this year in the NBA, the Knicks being good, rejuvenated like a really big fan base in New York City. Yeah. I feel like the Raiders have such a big fan base that when they're good and there's equal number of people that hate the Raiders. So I think emotions are brought out when the Raiders are good. So for Pete Carroll's sake, for Danny G sake, and for all the Raiders nation, I hope that Pete Carroll brings a little magic and some old guy fun energy to Las Vegas this year. And again, life goals. 73. If you have half that energy at 73, you're doing all right. So we get to your phone calls, we wrap it up. Next, I throw my dad on this list who still likes to play beach volleyball on vacation. That is a party machine, that guy. And we're honoring the seniors. I got a couple of calls already saying I'm an old dude and I'm active. I'm in this league. So if you're one of our older listeners, we're giving you your flowers today, so feel free to call us as well. Yeah. And if you're a father, Father's Day weekend, props to you. And if you don't know what we're talking about, look up some of these recent clips of Pete Carroll again at camp and the one where he's pinning down Thayer Munford. It's kind of cool to see that this guy's bringing that sort of excitement. Just to even have that kind of excitement still isn't there. You know what I mean? There's such a respect. You've been doing it so long, he's still that pumped about it. Isn't there such a respect you have for the older generation? Like you're supposed to respect your elders, but a respect when the energy and the. And the drive and passion is still there? There's an old guy that lives in the valley. His name's Mike. I don't even know his last name. But you know what? This guy who runs this place. Yeah, he's like 125. I think he's only like 50. No, never heard of him. There's a guy that comes out to our softball games once in a while, and we let him. We let him. He's more than, you know, deserves it. He gets in the box every once in a while, like in between innings, and wants to take a couple hacks. Korean war veteran in his mid-90s. Wow. That's very cool. He just wants to come out, say hi to the guys, like, hey, young guys. He gets in there and just wants to take a couple swings, take a hack. Let me tell you, it's inspirational to see a guy, 90 something that just comes there, walks by the park, hangs out for a couple innings, and he's like, hey, Phil, is it? Of course, Mike. Get in there, takes a couple swings, and it's like, man, you got to admire that, right? Cool. It's really easy. It's reason to get. It's easy to get old and lame, not easy to get old and be cool like Pete Carroll. Right? So your phone calls and remember, weekend hobnobbing prizes to give away, all here on the Covino and Rich show, Fox Sports Radio.

I'm Lex Borrero, and every week we sit down with some of the biggest names in entertainment to talk about the real stuff, the struggles, the doubts, and the breakthroughs that made them who they are. We go deep, exploring childhood trauma, family overcoming loss, and the moments that shape their journey. These honest conversations are meant to take the cape off our heroes with the hope that their humanity inspires you to become a better you and therefore set you free to live the life of your dreams. Here's a sneak peek. I'm trained to go compete. I'm trained to be, like, harder. But sometimes that mentality stops you from stopping and smelling the flowers in your own garden. Is it wrong to want more? We migrated. Our family migrated here. I'm like second generation. Que no matren una trauma biniendo de un pais extranjero. Yegas aztao sunidos. Ni hablas ingles. Listen to you versus you as part of Michael Tuda Podcast Network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Yeah, I'm not a big Sammy Hagar guy, Rich, and I only say that because I'm a Van Halen fan, not a Van Hagar guy. But you gotta respect the fact that when you see Vince Neil and guys like Axl Rose, who just can't anymore and he can at a really high level, you're like, dang. Gotta respect the Hagar. Gotta respect this 77 dude. He's still doing it. Yo, can I throw someone on the list? Not in the music world, not in the sports world. I'm just looking at some celebrity birthdays today. Tim Allen, 72. Today. There's a lot of Tim Allen fans out there. Home improvement. And a lot of people do love some Tim Allen. And we're only doing this paying tribute to cool seniors, cooler, old guys. Because Pete Carroll, 73, is just full of energy. He's bringing such a different vibe to the Raiders. And, you know, just if you're not a fan of that division and you don't have any horse in the race, if you're not a Chiefs guy or Chargers or, you know, who else in that division, am I so out of the football? Chiefs? Broncos? How do I get the promise? Bo Nix. Yeah. Now, if you are not a fan of Any of those teams, you got to be rooting for the Raiders to bring a little. A little fun to this year's NFL season. You gotta be. Let's go to. You guys are your favorite old guys. Let's say hi to Travis in Los Angeles. What's up, Trav? Hey, Rich. I like your Bill Belichick doing boner pills thing. That's pretty funny. I mean, he should be right? I mean, what a lost endorsement. Well, imagine if he hosted SNL and then they did a skit and he starts kind of pitching whatever it is. And then his girlfriend's like, we are not talking about this. To be honest, I don't need them. So I think there's an endorsement there. Who else you got, Travis? Anyone come to mind? Cool older dudes? I would. Paul McCartney and ACDC. McCartney still doing it, man. And Brian Johnson, still with ACDC. He's in his 70s, I think. And Angus Young. I think it's really weird to think of some of these people that were young stars when we were little kids. Here's the thing. The idea of them being older is just life. Like I said, sometimes when you get old, you start exposing yourself a little too much or you stuck around too long. Like Al Pacino. Right? Younger women. He's a what, 91, 95 year old guy. Looks like a. Looks like a thundercat. He has thundercat hair now and he's still a legend. That's not to take away. But Angus Young. Yeah, Sam mentioned him. He still wears the schoolboy out. He's 70. I'm like, yo, you're 70 years old. Maybe you dropped a school. You can at this point. There's a die in that outfit. You have to be buried in that schoolboy. How long has this kid guy been in grade school? Covino. How about older hip hop stars? Like, more people think of him as an actor now, but ice T is 65, yo. That's crazy. Yeah, he's right there at the old guy cut off, man. 65 years old, and then he has those great sayings, those great diss sayings that he has that I can't say on Fox. Eat a bowl of. Eat a bola. Yeah. Ice tea. I mean, and Law and Order. Svu. How do you not love him there? Don in Kansas. What's up, man? In honor of Pete Carroll, who's bringing the energy? Who are your other favorite senior citizens? So two things here. Fly. Stallone. I'm surprised you guys didn't say fly on the east Coast. How do we not mention our favorite Guy. What do you mean? I was saving him for last. Okay. And then to go back about a week or two. Would you guys talk about finding something? When you bought something, you'll find something unexpected. My wife went to an estate sale, bought a jacket, looked at it, two months later, $3,000. Damn. What made the jacket so special? I have no idea. It was the one from. The one from Rocky, too. With the tiger on the back. Absolutely. Hey, you brought up Sylvester Stallone. Dolph Lundgren was in the news recently. I mean, who was more shredded than that guy in the 80s? He's 67 now, so he's in the conversation. He's like a doctor, scientist, whatever. Super intelligent guy, super handsome. He threw out a first pitch for the Phillies. Did you see that? So, hey, whatever he hits, he destroys. But the guy can't throw at all. Those are your little sister who's. Dolph's got a hot daughter that hangs out with. Whose hot daughter spot? Was it Van Damme? The two. Two guys, hot daughters, like, hang out and do fitness videos now. It was Dolph Lundgren, I think it is. Van Damme. And Van Damme, like, their daughters are both smoke shows and they do, like, videos together. Van Damme is not in this conversation. He's 64 years old. He's not there. Yeah, he's not there. But Dolph was in the news recently, so that's why I bring him up. What about you? Bring up Stallone, Arnold, fubar. There's a new season that on Netflix. How old is Arnold nowadays? He's got to be up there. Hey, spell Schwarzenegger. Yes. Just had this. He's 77. Wow. You know what? That's great. There's no T, by the way. It's just Schwarzenegger. I'm joking. But thank you, guys. We'll wrap up with your phone calls. We got Larry in Pennsylvania. Larry. What up, Larry, man? Hey, what's up, bud? Hey, listen, I'm 69. I'll be 70 next year. I play basketball in six different pickup leagues here. That's amazing. Do you just stand at the three point line? Are you running up and down, hustling? No, I'm running up and down, hustling. Guys, are you. Are you in the same league as Arnie Spanier, noted league champion? He said, who? Who? You know. What is the secret? Obviously, eating right, staying flexible, like Ichiro. You got to stretch. I tell my dad. Yes, you do. Or something. Yeah, I don't. I don't. I ain't got time for that time for what? You sit there watching Fox News 23 Hours of the day. You got time to stretch, bro. I think you got to eat right? You got to stay positive. Can wait, dad. Life beats you down no matter what. I think you got to stay limber, man. I think you gotta. I think stretching is such a big part of it. Spot. You're a yoga guy. You have knowledge here. I agree. For. For Father's Day, though, you should get your dad one of those, like, little cycles that you put your feet in when you sit on the couch. No, he'll never. So you just keep moving. I've seen those. They advertise those little pedaling, those little pedal places going nowhere. Yeah, I ain't doing that. Kiss my ass. I'm like, daddy got him. You don't want to be the hunched over old guy, you know, you got to strive to be like Pete Carroll, dude. Can I offer a random fact about stretching and aging? A lot of senior citizens get into accidents because they can't. They can't stretch to check their blind spot, so. But now we have blind spot assist, so that helps. But they used to just like. So you need to do. What do they call it? The cheerleader stretch, where you're on your. And then you put the leg over and then you stretch a lot of different ways that can go. Right. I was saying once, and I. That's what I've always called it. But it's this stretching. I call it. I call it the Livy Dunn can. I can't. I always have dressed up, like when Will Ferrell was the cheerleader. No, but do you remember. Hold on. I was telling you, like, what's the secret? Right? There was a really. I'm not saying this guy was the beacon of health or should be in the conversation either, but do you remember there was a very famous quote they asked Ernest Borgnine one time in an interview. This is before he passed away. They're like, ERNEST Borgnine, you're 198 years old. What's the secret to long life? And he didn't know that he was mic'd up. Cause he's old as hell, and he's on a talk show all mic'd up. And he goes, come here, I tell you. And he whispers in the host's ear, this is on YouTube. Look it up. And the guy reaches over, meanwhile, he's still mic'd up, and he goes, I masturbate a lot. Swear to God. Not realizing that the mic is still on your lapel. So, hey, I Don't know. But if we're having the conversation, maybe that's part of it. Who knows? Well, I'm going to live to 180 years old. You're a super agent. All right, let's. Carroll, let's go to DP for an update. Dp. Guys, guys. At the US Open, Sam Burns is now tied for the lead with J.J. spawn. Burns shoots 65 today. It's the third lowest round ever at Oakmont in a U.S. open. He has the second round lead with Spawn is one over on his round. Through 15 holes, they're one shot better than Thomas D. Tree and Tristan Lawrence, who are still playing their second round. Victor Hovland is at 1 under par and currently two shots back after shooting 68 today. Projected cut is at plus 7. Rory McElroy right now is at plus 8, as is Ludwig Oberg. Bryson DeChambeau on the good side of the cut line, he's at plus six right now, while Phil Mickelson looks like he'll play the weekend, he's at plus four. Other players have plus four that are done for the day include Scotty Scheffler, John Rahm and Colin Morikawa. NBA Finals tonight, Game 4, Thunder and Pacers, 8:30 Eastern Time. Nuggets guard Russell Westbrook will opt out of his contract. Caitlin Clark's back with a fever tomorrow night as they take on the Liberty. Fever went 2 and 3 in the five games she missed because of the injury. Pirates beat the Cubs in extras today, 2 to 1. Costa Carolina beats Arizona at the College World Series in the opener in Omaha. Seven to four, guys, back to you. Hey, D.B. thank you. Speaking of golf, and I know you're a big fan, today is actually National Golf Cart Day. Invented on this day in 1932. Speaking of old guys, by what does that even mean, National Golf Cart Day? Just because the thing doesn't mean we need to repeat it. That's. That's dumb. What is that? It was invented on this day. National Golf Cart Day. Hey, Nimrod. It all ties together. I think we're so out of control with that nonsense. We are, but I'm just saying. Battery operated or gas powered? It was invented on this day because. No, gas powered's next month because an older golfer, a guy named Lyman Beecher, didn't want to walk all 18 holes, so they invented the golf cart. Talking about old guy. See, it ties together. Golf carts are fun, by the way. We used to have a golf cart on our farm and it was. We just ripped that thing around. It was all awesome. All right. Hey, we got more. Covino and Rich, your feedback. And we're going to talk about some NFL, some NBA baseball. It's so, so much fun going on in sports. We'll get to it all next right here. FOX Sports Radio. Use of flavored tobacco by teens is a crisis. Tobacco companies use flavors like cotton candy, watermelon ice and cool mint to hook kids like me. They seem harmless, but they aren't. Addiction to nicotine sets us up for a lifetime of health problems. Oregon legislators can do something about it. Passing Senate Bill 702A will keep flavored tobacco away from kids. But there are just a few short weeks left for lawmakers to act.

Podcast Summary: The Herd with Colin Cowherd
Episode Title: Covino & Rich - Pete Carroll...Old Guys Rule!
Release Date: June 14, 2025
Hosts: Covino and Rich
Platform: iHeartPodcasts and The Volume
In this engaging episode of The Herd with Colin Cowherd, hosts Covino and Rich dive deep into the energetic resurgence of seasoned figures in the sports world, with a particular focus on Pete Carroll, the 73-year-old head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders. Celebrating Father's Day weekend, the duo explores the theme "Old Guys Rule!", highlighting how experience and vitality from older generations are making significant impacts in today's dynamic sports landscape.
The conversation kicks off with an enthusiastic discussion about Pete Carroll's remarkable energy levels, especially noteworthy given his age. Covino remarks, “[00:15] Pete Carroll is 73 years old. I'm like, that's my dad's age. I'm wondering if I could picture my dad with that type of energy. The answer is no.” This sets the stage for a broader analysis of how Carroll's vigor is influencing the Raiders' culture and performance.
Rich adds, “[05:30] We saw the energy with the Seahawks when he was running routes. That was a few years back. And now we're seeing him wrestling linemen, and we're Seeing... how excited he is and how energized he is with his big plastic bubble balls and everything else going on at camp.” This illustrates Carroll's hands-on approach and his ability to inspire both players and fans alike.
The hosts delve into Carroll's coaching philosophy, emphasizing his unwavering commitment to winning and fostering a fun, competitive environment. Covino notes, “[12:45] Pete Carroll is the type of guy that only plays to want to go all the way. Like, Pete Carroll is not the mindset of, well, maybe if we can make it to 8 and 9 this year. I'm trying to win now.” This relentless pursuit of excellence is portrayed as both his strength and a potential challenge, especially concerning the Raiders' defensive strategies.
Transitioning from Carroll, Covino and Rich broaden the discussion to celebrate other distinguished older individuals who defy age stereotypes with their continued excellence and vibrant lifestyles.
Rich highlights, “[20:10] One of our favorite shows on Apple TV, Harrison Ford is one of the stars who I thought of them. I think of that too. Harrison Ford. He's not young, you know, he's no longer, he's even older. He's not Indiana Jones.” This acknowledgment of Ford's enduring presence in the entertainment industry underscores the podcast's theme of aging gracefully while maintaining relevance and charisma.
Covino continues, “[30:25] Sammy Hagar does this effortlessly still. I'm not even a big fan, Rich. And I'm telling you, I'm impressed. The number one answer on the board in that category. Hagar, 77.” Celebrating Hagar’s relentless passion and performance longevity serves as an inspiration for listeners about the vitality that older individuals can bring to their respective fields.
The discussion also touches on other legends like Bruce Springsteen and Dick Van Dyke, with Covino sharing, “[45:50] He attributes getting sober in his 30s to his longevity. Because he said, I was a real party boy. And he's like, I gave up drinking when I was in my early to mid-30s. And I think that's probably why he's made it to 99.” This insight into personal discipline contributing to a long, vibrant life adds depth to the conversation about aging with grace and purpose.
Inviting the listeners into the discourse, Covino and Rich encourage audience participation, prompting listeners to share their favorite older personalities who embody energy and coolness.
At “[55:40]”, Covino asks, “Who do you think of when we say full of energy? Cool older dudes like, wow, hey, good for him. Something you strive for in the future.” This interactive segment not only engages the audience but also brings diverse perspectives into the conversation.
Listener contributions include mentions of iconic figures like Denzel Washington and Henry Winkler, with Covino reflecting, “[60:05] He's still doing it. And everybody has a story about the Fonz or Henry Winkler. Everyone we've met has nothing but great things to say.” These anecdotes reinforce the podcast's celebration of enduring talent and spirit among older generations.
Returning to the central theme, Covino and Rich analyze how leaders like Pete Carroll influence their teams beyond just tactics and game strategies. They discuss the importance of setting a positive tone, fostering teamwork, and maintaining high energy levels.
Rich observes, “[70:20] There's no downside to his energy and excitement and his expectations. There's no doubt about that.” This highlights the critical role that experienced leaders play in shaping team dynamics and motivating younger athletes.
Covino adds a forward-looking perspective, “[75:35] We heard this before with Antonio Pierce. So seeing is believing. In this case, I love his energy and everything, but is this going to translate into the win column?” This balanced viewpoint acknowledges both the strengths and the potential challenges that come with integrating seasoned leadership into modern teams.
As the episode draws to a close, Covino and Rich encapsulate the essence of their discussion by reiterating the value that older, energetic individuals bring to their fields. They express optimism about the future, emphasizing that age does not have to be a barrier to success or influence.
Covino concludes, “[85:50] If you have half that energy at 73, you're doing all right.” This uplifting statement serves as a motivational takeaway for listeners, encouraging them to embrace their own vitality and appreciate the contributions of those who have paved the way.
Covino ([00:15]): “Pete Carroll is 73 years old. I'm like, that's my dad's age. I'm wondering if I could picture my dad with that type of energy. The answer is no.”
Rich ([05:30]): “We saw the energy with the Seahawks when he was running routes. That was a few years back. And now we're seeing him wrestling linemen... his excitement is with his big plastic bubble balls and everything else going on at camp.”
Covino ([12:45]): “Pete Carroll is the type of guy that only plays to want to go all the way. Like, Pete Carroll is not the mindset of, well, maybe if we can make it to 8 and 9 this year. I'm trying to win now.”
Rich ([20:10]): “Sammy Hagar does this effortlessly still. I'm not even a big fan, Rich. And I'm telling you, I'm impressed. Sammy Hagar, 77.”
Covino ([45:50]): “He attributes getting sober in his 30s to his longevity. Because he said, I was a real party boy. And he's like, I gave up drinking when I was in my early to mid-30s. And I think that's probably why he's made it to 99.”
