Danny G
You, you go and judge, huh?
Covino
Yeah, buddy. And Ben Rice, dude, representing.
Danny G
I got my Francisco Lindor alternate blue jersey ready to roll. I do want, I do want, I do want to get to the Android callers. And it was just a simple thing. Peyton Manning on a History Channel. Hold on.
Covino
Can we just point this out, too? I mentioned that Peyton Manning produces the mega brands that built America on the History Channel, him and Eli Omaha Productions. But it's Peyton Manning and Eli's part of it. And they bring a. They bring a lot of other celebrities to that channel. I think we're seeing the life after football. And it's not just broadcasting. It's making money moves. We've seen Shaquille o' Neal as a businessman. Peyton Manning's producing shows. And another show that I'm on on the History Channel, icons that built America was produced by Derek Jeter. So you're seeing these dudes do some pretty cool things and then they sell these shows to other streaming services. Right. So props to them. So anyway, based on.
Danny G
Look at Kavino kissing ass.
Covino
Damn right.
Danny G
You know, trying to hang out with people.
Covino
If you're gonna ass, kiss ass, that matters.
Danny G
Yeah.
Covino
So because of his success as a producer, now Rolling Stone interviewed Peyton Manning and that's where this came from.
Danny G
And he said that if not for being released by the Colts in 2012.
Covino
Ish.
Danny G
When. When the Broncos and other teams were vetting him, he had to open attachments and see things on his phone. And he still had a crappy flip phone. So that's when he made the transition to a smartphone. Otherwise he'd still be playing snake on. On his Nokia. Question is this. It's 2025. We all have that one friend that ruins the group chat with their Android. Kavito says I called them losers. Little harsh.
Covino
Ruin, though, is so like drastic and dramatic.
Danny G
Like ruins videos, the attachments, Nothing's right. So I just asked the question.
Covino
I felt like such a cheap. A cheap sheep. I felt like such a sheep making that move to Apple. I feel like I sold my soul, but I did it. But I Never had an issue with the Android. It was everybody else.
Danny G
No, no, no. I loved it. Spot when he had an Android every day. It was like my pictures didn't load.
Covino
Battery issues.
Patrick Mahomes
Yeah, exactly.
Covino
Issues you had every week. Camino's like, you act like I don't have to balance my iPhone just to get a charge. I do in. In a base that's not meant for the phone you have. So don't even use that as an example. Not the greatest thing ever. You guys like a big Apple nerds. The greatest thing, the most user friendly. And I always say that the people that have an Android don't deserve an Android phone. An Android phone is far superior. It has a lot of options that are great if you're tech savvy, but for some reason, the least tech savvy people are the ones that own an Android. Well, because get an iPhone, it's better for you. They're less expensive. But it's more than 50% of the population. I told you that has an.
Danny G
I told you. The only excuse I'll accept is, hey, man, I'm on a budget. Sorry, I'm not. Daddy stacks Androids. Androids are free.
Covino
That is fair. You sign up iPhone for free.
Danny G
But I'm saying you sign up for a cell. Even now you could change phones and they're like, yeah, get the Android for whatever iPhones, like 1500 bucks.
Covino
So I get it. Rich is saying, okay, you're not a loser. But he's saying, what are you trying to prove? Which is very condescending, by the way, at this. What are you trying to.
Danny G
I'm saying at this stage of the game, Unless you're telling me, hey, Rich, I got a budget situation. Why do you still have an Android? What's. What are you doing here? What's happening?
Covino
Before we go to the call 87799 on Fox, Iowa. Sam, break down the stats for us.
Iowa Sam
So this go back. This goes back to Jason Stewart, Doug Gottlieb's executive producer.
Covino
That's right. Hey, how are you?
Iowa Sam
We have a lot of show text between me, Doug, Dan Byer texting, show ideas and Jason. Jason ruins it because he's Mr. Green Text. He's the one guy amongst the four of us. And I'm put Dan up here in case he wants to chime in. He's the one guy amongst four of us who has the Android.
Danny G
Right.
Iowa Sam
So Jason did deep dive on this. We kind of joke about it because we'll send a picture, we'll send a video, we'll send Something, it will come in weird, a little pixelated. It won't download correctly. It'll be delayed. So Jason looked into this. There's actually a sports parallel here, by the way. I love that the Colts had not one, but two quarterbacks who love their flip phone, the other being Andrew Luck, who had a flip phone up until the very end.
Covino
This is simple.
Danny G
I'm shocked that I'm learning now that that show is prepped. The Goblin show. I'm kidding.
Iowa Sam
We do the best we can.
Danny G
I'm kidding.
Iowa Sam
Jason does a great job on that show, but he is Mr. Green Text. He is Mr. Android. So he looked into this, and I looked up the numbers. They seem to be about a correct. So in the US the iPhone is the more popular phone. 57. About 57% to what? 43%. The iPhone is more popular internationally, though an Android owned by Google is about 70% of the market share is Android. So internationally, the Google Android is married.
Covino
Sipping the Apple Kool Aid. That's why it's not a superior phone like you love to believe in.
Iowa Sam
This Spot's right, though. 47% of former Android users say the iPhone provides a better user experience. And But 29% of former iPhone users say Android is more affordable. Here's the. Here's the sports parallel. So in the United States, obviously, we love our NFL. The NFL is like the iPhone. It's the more popular sport here. But internationally, football, Soccer is the more popular sport. It's the Android.
Danny G
That's a great analogy. In my mind, I would say that the iPhones like the NFL and the iPhone like bowling. The Android's like my bowling or something. Maybe like darts on the s. Cornhole. Cornholio.
Iowa Sam
And spy was right. Like the Android, we have people here who actually use both and they do say it's a lot more. The Android's a lot more detailed. There's a lot more stuff you can do on it. But I've always been an Apple products person and I just. I love mine. I love my iPhone.
Covino
For the record, right, Everybody here has an Apple iPhone, right? Everyone here, Dan Byer.
Dan Byer
Yes.
Danny G
Yes.
Covino
Everybody here, Danny G. So, yeah, our group text is blue. We're not Mr. Green Pants like J. Stu. So your thoughts on the Peyton Manning would have had a flip phone, probably some sort of Android at this point, hadn't he made the switch. Let's go to your phone calls because Rich said, what are you trying to prove there, Big?
Danny G
You know what I want to. I'm gonna add one layer to this conversation.
Covino
Rich Called you big guy. What are you trying to prove, big guy?
Danny G
Trying to prove big guy? I want to add one layer I want everyone to think about in the room. What do you think you would have been reluctant to do had it not been for your friends or family or girlfriend or wife pressuring you? Like, what is the one technology or one thing that.
Covino
Dude, you were so reluctant to just trim up the sides of your hair until we put so much pressure on you. Rich had like a mad Dog Russo cocker spaniel haircut, puffy sides like he was Samuel Adams. We also. And we're like, dude, get a fade, bro.
Iowa Sam
You're my hair. Clown hair.
Covino
No, but you know what? That's actually sort of back. Letting your hair grow and letting it flow is back.
Danny G
A little package, right?
Covino
Yeah. And Rich, if you did that now, like, had the Mel Gibson now, I wouldn't blame you because it's more in style. But for years and years, like, you refuse to get. But he never went to a barber. This guy was going to a salon, sitting under those moon helmets, let some old lady Marge cut his hair.
Iowa Sam
I thought it was Scandal.
Danny G
Scandal was the name of the hair. Get your story straight.
Covino
It was Scandal the hairdresser. I'm like, dude, go to a Dominican guy and get a buzz cut for once.
Danny G
That's what most white guys go get a buzz cut from a Dominican.
Covino
He had never gotten a buz in his life. I was like, you're a young man. Get a fade. So Rich was. Everybody's reluctant to do a little.
Iowa Sam
You have a picture of this old haircut. I'd like to see this.
Covino
Look up a young Mel Gibson. It was Rich.
Danny G
It looks like me. I understand. I just. Instead of like a 2, a 2 clip on the side, there's just a little puffy.
Covino
Look up the Swiss Alps and picture like a giant slope on either side. That's what Rich's head looks like. We had to force Rich to get a side poof reduction.
Spot
Yeah.
Covino
Otherwise he was not doing it.
Danny G
I have a list of things for you guys, but let's go to Cody. Cody in New York.
Covino
Hey, Cody. Hey.
Cody
Yeah, so, yeah, Android user. Been a loser all my life. Love the Mets and the Jets. So, you know, not fair.
Danny G
But hey, you know what? Hey, Cody, we're both Mets fans, so I feel you. I feel you, man. What a combo.
Covino
Mets, jets, and Android.
Lex Borrero
Yeah.
Danny G
By the way, Cody, I hear. I hear. I hear a beautiful kid in the background crying. I'm shocked. Oh, yeah, I'm shocked. A woman has been with you with the Mets Jets Android.
Cody
And, and, and I, and I met her in college. With an Android.
Danny G
You must have character. You must, you must have something in your pants, man.
Covino
So, so what's the deal?
Cody
Basically, Right, so the Android started because. Right. That, that early, like teens, that like 2013, 14 period, I was getting my MBA and Android has Microsoft, you know, capability, Google or. All right, iPhone did not. So you could do. I could do my homework on Excel in class and then print my stuff off. And then the professor at the end of class, well, you know, while he was going over the answers and basically, you know, cheat the system a little bit.
Danny G
Okay, so that's how I. Yeah, all right, I see you're a smart guy. One person, he's the 1% of Andrews.
Covino
So everybody has a reason. We're saying budget reasons don't apply here because we understand that that is fair.
Spot
Some people in my family just say, because I'm used to it, I'm used to it and I don't want to change. And so some people just drag their feet for that reason. And because of that, our family group chat has to be in. What's WhatsApp right now, dude, can I tell you? Yeah, because otherwise people can't see the videos.
Iowa Sam
I use Signal, which got a little controversy a couple months when. When Signal app.
Danny G
When people tell me, hey, can we do this chat on signal or WhatsApp? I always go, yep, we're just not going to talk then because Rich is.
Covino
Obviously a coach of the pony league. So all the parents are hitting them up.
Iowa Sam
I got to open another app.
Danny G
Yeah, no. Can I tell you this? I called out the parent. I felt bad at first. I'm like, nope, I don't feel bad anymore. So like I said, There was like 20 parents on this one group chat. Just, you know, so I can give quick updates every like once a week, like practice is on or 5 o' clock at this field or whatever. And the one mom's like, could I add my husband to this chat? And if, you know, if you have an Android user in the group, you can't add. You have to make a whole new. Yep, 20 person chat. And I said, you know, if you have a problem with this, blame coach Andrew because he's the one Android user. And I just threw it on him.
Patrick Mahomes
Wow.
Danny G
So what do you try to prove?
Covino
Rich is saying, hey, big shot. I'm sorry, big hoss. Big guy. What's the deal, Indiana? You're on the show.
Danny G
Let's go to Bill.
Covino
Hey, Bill, what's Going on.
Cody
I'm a Android loser. I have good reason. I have a wife and four kids that constantly fight over chargers and cubes, but they don't touch old dad's charger because it doesn't work on their phone.
Danny G
You know what I like?
Covino
Rich believes in a one Charger family, by the way.
Danny G
You know, it's so funny you would say that.
Covino
I have one Charger bill.
Danny G
I said, admire your. Your reasoning, though. That's great. No one bothers dad because he's the only guy with. But you know what? That's another good question. Do you have to say, have the same version of the phone as your family? Because Covino and his girlfriend agreed that they can't be two different chargers. Like, you have to upgrade at the same time.
Covino
Yeah, there's just a lot going on. You have all these different chargers. So that kind. That's kind of a thing. A one Charger family or not. I didn't just invent that. Let's talk to Curtis. Is Curtis an Android loser or user?
Danny G
Oh, hi, Curtis.
Cody
Hey, what's up? I'm doing good, you guys. My wife refers to me as an Android loser all the time.
Danny G
Your wife is onto something, but you sound like a nice guy, Curtis.
Cody
Well, no, no, no.
Rich
She.
Cody
She's the one that pays the phone. We split up our bill. She does the phone bill, and she's an iPhone. And I had the Android. And I'm just gonna say I'm old. I don't like change. Okay. And that. That's. That's kind of my thing. And I do believe that she knows more about the iPhone than I do. So if I get it, you can get in there and put things on that. And not that I do anything wrong, but she can watch what I look at, if you know what I mean.
Covino
Yeah, you know, I think a lot of times, aside from budget Rich and thanks for chiming in, man. I appreciate it. It has to do with you tell.
Spot
That was an Android phone by how it sounded.
Covino
Someone just not willing to give in right now. I'm holding out now I'm not doing it just because you told me to do.
Danny G
Almost like it's almost like telling Kavino to do karaoke. Like, he'll do it if he wants to do it, right?
Covino
Like, no one wants to be forced. There's a stubbornness, there's a reluctance to make that change, and you just want to hold out. And Rich is really trying to say, well, why? And something.
Danny G
I know you were stubborn too. You made fun of my haircut. Yeah, Kavino's the guy that up until recently, he would be the guy that would go into Starbucks, wait in line to order his coffee. I'm like, why don't you do the mobile app? He's like, I don't do apps.
Covino
Yeah, that's true. Up until, I'd say about maybe a.
Danny G
Year ago, you order El Pollo Loco.
Covino
There's no L, bro. It's pollo, not polio.
Danny G
Then you say you polio.
Covino
You do every time. Stop. It's not polio.
Danny G
He goes to the crazy chicken.
Iowa Sam
Crazy polio.
Danny G
He goes, he goes to the crazy chicken.
Covino
But he's right. He's right.
Danny G
And, and he'll wait in line to.
Covino
Download apps and then, and then Spot.
Danny G
Will say, you know, dude, if you go there so often, like every fifth burrito bowl will be free if you just get the points and you go.
Covino
I could get like a 50 person free meal right now if I wanted to.
Danny G
Yeah, just gain points, dude.
Covino
So 50%. The Android versus the Apple. This debate still going on. It's not as tired as Lebron or Jordan, but we had reason to bring it up today. Thank you guys for all your feedback. Regardless of what you're calling in on and chiming in on, we appreciate you.
Danny G
I just saw Bo Benson, one of the great producers here at fox, walk in.
Covino
Oh boy.
Danny G
I just, I just checked my phone. He's an iPhone guy.
Iowa Sam
I was giving me all kinds of information.
Danny G
I thought he might have come in with a. I really like it if.
Iowa Sam
Bo would just go in there and go on the air and share this information with him.
Covino
Come on, everybody just, just Bo, please.
Iowa Sam
Go in there and help him. Please go guess the guest.
Danny G
Or you can sit on I was Sam's lap.
Iowa Sam
You can do that too.
Covino
No, no.
Iowa Sam
But I have some pertinent information that.
Covino
We need to know. I want to make this point before I forget because I'm a pea brain Cavino here and I have an iPhone. But what I hate about iPhone users is the pompous attitude of how like how much better it is and how lame you are if you don't have one.
Danny G
It's like it is pompous. I agree.
Covino
It's so pompous. Like you deserve a karate kick.
Dan Byer
I sent you guys in our group chat here a video that you'll have to watch during the break. This has gone on forever. It's a 15 year old video talking exactly about what you're talking about, Covino. Really it is, it's hilarious of once.
Danny G
In our group chat, it'll come in clear.
Dan Byer
It should go through. But this has been going on for years.
Danny G
What's up, Bob?
Dan Byer
Years and years.
Danny G
Well, Sam did not know this, but Apple was sued in I believe the UK to start forcing RCS messaging which is what was preventing you guys from.
Covino
Texting with Android users.
Danny G
So I feel like if the Doug Gottlieb show all went onto their phones and turned on RCS messaging, they wouldn't have an issue with Jason anymore.
Covino
Simple as that. It's not.
Iowa Sam
You can't. You can still text with people iPhone or imessage to non iPhone. It's just you get all kinds of weird interference. But you're saying if you select. And also Apple did not make this known to us. Really. They just put this, snuck that in.
Patrick Mahomes
They didn't have it because they wanted.
Danny G
People to use imessage.
Iowa Sam
They wanted people to use imessage. But like. So you're saying that if you just go and switch this, then everything, what is it? Still green text. But it's just much more fluid.
Danny G
It's more fluid. I was not aware of that. Now the one thing just something stupid. I mean, because how often are you really out of the country? But let's say you are on vacation, you get the WI fi in the hotel, you could text your friends and family at home, but if they have an Android, you're not, you know, Google message isn't. Well, yeah, I'm sorry, like imessage isn't working. Little things like that. You're on a plane using, you know, south Swift Southwest WI fi. It works.
Covino
Well, let's wrap it with something we've been saying for years and preaching for years. Relevance is a choice.
Danny G
Yeah.
Covino
And if you do follow the path of my uncle Joe who lives in an analog life and you held onto your flip phone like Peyton Manning would have done, you just get left behind in life. That's really it. So you gotta stay on top of things, whether you wanna, you know, stand your ground and use the old phone. You gotta evolve a little bit or else you just become obsolete.
Danny G
I. I do think it is funny, it's very judgy. But Covino's right. When he was single. It's been a minute since I brought up your divorce. Kavino, remember when he got divorced, guys?
Covino
Yeah. I was an Android guy.
Danny G
He was an Android guy.
Covino
And young. That was 2016.
Danny G
Young women. He matched with a lot of them. He's a handsome guy. A lot of young women in their 20s and 30s were like green text and he actually, that's One of the reasons he changed.
Iowa Sam
But what if you meet a woman who's an Android user, She's like, oh, you're green text.
Danny G
Two bozos don't make it right.
Spot
That's a needle in a haystack.
Covino
Can I say she probably has hairy legs?
Iowa Sam
I have a little horror story from when I had a flip phone and then I had. And I got an iPhone. First time I flew Spirit Airlines, it was like 2012.
Danny G
When was the last time you flew Spirit Airlines?
Iowa Sam
No, no, no, I flew Spirit, actually. Last Christmas was fine. Direct flight from LA to Philly worked out great. This was Spirit Airlines, and they had just kind of arrived on the scene. It was about 15 years ago, maybe 13 years ago. And I. I got a Spirit Airlines ticket, and they kept changing the gate on the app on. On a smartphone, and I had a flip phone. So people kept leaving, and I was like, where's everybody going? I wasn't getting the messages because they were like, oh, new gate change.
Covino
You get left behind.
Iowa Sam
And I had to, like, ask people what was going on. And they're like, yeah, we're moving now to a nine. Or, like, to C7.
Dan Byer
And I'm like, we also charged them five extra dollars to bring the flip.
Spot
Phone on the flight.
Dan Byer
So that was garbage.
Iowa Sam
I had to do the PA ticket. They charged me an extra five bucks.
Danny G
Oh, you. Oh, you're wearing shoes. That's five dollars.
Covino
That's hilarious. All right, last call, Ray, you're on the show. Kavino and Rich. Sam, Bo is hanging out with us.
Danny G
What up?
Covino
You got the iPhone 7.
Cody
Yo, what's up, guys? Hey. So I actually have an iPhone 7.
Danny G
Oh, so you still have the. You still have the button on your phone?
Cody
Yeah, yeah.
Spot
He has a headphone jack.
Cody
I pull that out and people are like, what is that?
Covino
It's a dinosaur.
Danny G
That's funny.
Rich
But it works.
Cody
It works. So it's all.
Danny G
Thank you, Uniman. Thank you guys for listening. Thanks, everyone for listening. You know, hey, iPhone users, Android users, we appreciate all of you. Just, you know, I'll roll my eyes at the green text.
Covino
Well, you know what happens if Peyton Manning would have stood his ground and kept that flip phone and lived an Android life or whatever, how would he even navigate today's world? How would he go to Disneyland? You need these apps. You need all that stuff. Like, it's impossible to survive without it. So thank you guys for playing along your feedback at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. And now we're looking for contestants.

Lex Borrero
Listen to you versus you as part of my Cultura Podcast network, available on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Danny G
All right, Taco Tuesday. Which by the way, I did look up.
Covino
I thought it was Bobby Bonilla Day.
Danny G
Taco Tuesday, you know, it is Bobby Bonilla Day. But I did, remember I said I was looking up who created Taco Tuesday.
Covino
Can we just say that Bobby Bonia Day is played out and dumb. Kind of like it's gonna be may that Justin. Remember the Justin Timberlake meme? Like, I didn't see much of it this year. Much like the butt Fumble. I didn't see much of it last Thanksgiving.
Danny G
Something's something.
Covino
Their course and it's over. I think the whole hype of people loving Bobby Bonilla Day, stick a fork in it. I'm so sick of it.
Danny G
Bobby Bonilla, I, believe it or not, I'm a big Mets fan, as you know, I never really heard him talk about it until I saw this social media clip this morning. Take a listen.
Rich
Every July 1st, I get paid 1.2 million till 2035.
Dan Byer

Danny G
Doesn't suck. Doesn't suck is right. I just wanted to be able to.
Rich
Spend as if I was an active player in retirement.
Danny G
That assurance that I'm able to take care of everybody.
Covino

Danny G
Let me tell you, I'm a big fan of Rich Eisen. I always love when Larry David's on his show. So what's up, Rich Eisen? I love this list because at number one, the San Francisco. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Covino
You start a countdown at number one? What radio college did you go to, Mr. Countdown Boy, don't you start at number five if it's the top five.
Danny G
Any Casey Kasem used to work in this very building and studio dude, he'd.
Covino
Be embarrassed by you right now.
Danny G
Number five.
Covino
Don't you host a Countdown and Pop 2K? I do.
Danny G
I'm so sorry, guys.
Covino
It's the top five NFL 2025 sleeper teams. Number number five.
Danny G
Number nine.
Covino
Number five. Number five.
Danny G
Number saints.
Covino
The New Orleans Saints.
Danny G
Number 12. The Saints.
Spot
The Saints, yeah.
Danny G
You know what?
Spot
They have such a question mark at quarterback.
Danny G
Why are they always on the sleep?
Spot
I feel like every year they're on almost every year.
Covino
You know why?
Danny G
I don't know why, to be honest. So you could tell me why.
Covino
Why?
Danny G
Again, the quarterback question marks. Is it that the division is so suspect? Probably it because I don't want to give any hints, but you'll see another one of these divisional teams later on on the countdown.
Covino
Coming in at number four. I'm sorry, Let me do my best. Spider Harrison coming in at number four, the New England Patriots.
Spot
Number four.
Danny G
Drake. You saw that. He got married to his, like, high school sweetheart. You saw that they have a new, you know, they have new coaching staff. They have revamped that team. I feel like I saw some style. Like the personnel turnover is unbelievable. So you're looking at a completely different Patriots team in a division where, you know, are there really high hopes for the jets or Dolphins? No.
Covino
And I know and the Bills will.
Danny G
Be back to where they are, but.
Covino
I mean, they still have a reputation to keep. They're still the Patriots, so they got to step that up.
Danny G
Didn't Robert Kraft recently say that the last couple years Were the worst of his, you know, of his career.
Covino
Yeah. So they got to play according to expectation eventually.
Danny G
Well, number three, I think is an interesting one, the Carolina Panthers. Because now Bryce Young, you know, there's no more like, oh, he's getting his feet wet. Yo, are you the number one guy from a couple of years ago or not? Like, are you going to deliver? They got some weapons for him now. They've built, they've got, you know, they've drafted, they've. They've had a couple drafts now.
Spot
He had a pretty nice bounce back after everybody said he was a bust.
Danny G
Yeah, so. So this is like. This is where it's like, all right, a couple years of good drafting, high picks, revamping again in a division that as of right now, what is it? Tampa and Baker Mayfield is the precedent, you know, is it Michael Penix Jr. And the Falcons. Like, the division has no team where it's like, well, you're not going to beat them. So I think it is sort of wide open. So this is an interesting one. Carolina again, we haven't seen any preseason. We haven't seen anything. And number two, Danny, you got to love this because the Raiders number two.
Covino
Coming in at number two. Yeah.
Spot
The Raiders number two, Ashton Genty. The speed and cuts of Barry Sanders and the muscle of Bo Jackson.
Covino
Geno Smith, new quarterback.
Danny G
I think it's going to be very interesting. I think the Las Vegas Raiders are very.
Iowa Sam
Mike Mayer at tight end. Mike Mayer at tight end. Come on.
Covino
That's right. And Rich, we're running out of time.
Danny G
You already said number one and my 49ers number one. I think there's nothing to be said other than they have the weakest schedule and they're still the 49ers. Everyone thinks they're decimated. They still have a core of a team that went to the super bowl twice in the last five years or so. We'll see you guys tomorrow.
Covino
Ariba Der G baby, see you in the promised land.
Rich

Podcast Summary: The Herd with Colin Cowherd - Episode: "C&R - Android Losers & Mahomes' Winner"
Release Date: July 2, 2025
The episode kicks off with Covino and Danny G taking over the live broadcast from the Fox Sports Radio Studio, hinting at their involvement in the MLB All-Star Week and their role in filling in for the Dan Patrick Show. They express excitement about the upcoming events and engage in light banter about their participation.
The core of the episode centers around a spirited debate on Android versus iPhone users. Covino initiates the conversation by expressing a strong preference for iPhones, labeling Android users as "losers."
Covino [04:58]:
"I always say that the people that have an Android don't deserve an Android phone."
He elaborates on his stance, mentioning issues like photo attachments and battery problems experienced with Android devices.
Danny G [04:39]:
"When I spot when he had an Android every day. It was like my pictures didn't load."
To add depth to the debate, they bring in Iowa Sam to dissect the statistics behind smartphone preferences.
Iowa Sam [06:27]:
"In the US, the iPhone is the more popular phone, 57% to 43%. Internationally, the Google Android holds about 70% of the market share."
Sam draws an analogy comparing iPhones to the NFL's popularity in the US and Androids to Soccer's dominance internationally.
Iowa Sam [07:40]:
"47% of former Android users say the iPhone provides a better user experience. But 29% of former iPhone users say Android is more affordable."
The discussion becomes more personal as callers join in, sharing their reasons for sticking with Android or switching to iPhone.
Cody [10:53]:
"I have a wife and four kids that constantly fight over chargers and cubes, but they don't touch old dad's charger because it doesn't work on their phone."
Covino [12:03]:
"Some people just drag their feet for that reason. And because of that, our family group chat has to be in WhatsApp right now, dude, can I tell you?"
The hosts and callers engage in humorous exchanges, poking fun at each other's device preferences and related quirks.
Danny G [05:55]:
"But I'm saying you sign up for a cell. Even now you could change phones and they're like, yeah, get the Android for whatever iPhones, like 1500 bucks."
The episode takes an exciting turn as Patrick Mahomes joins the show to host a live NFL trivia segment. Covino and Danny G introduce Mahomes, who engages warmly with the hosts.
Patrick Mahomes [27:05]:
"Truth is I want everybody to love me, not just the refs."
Mahomes leads the contestants, primarily Dan Byer and Aaron, through a series of NFL-related questions. The segment is interactive and showcases a friendly competition.
Mahomes [29:32]:
"What was that once quoted saying about Kansas City? A, the barbecue food in Kansas City is a little overrated, but the people are nice. B, I like being in Kansas City. People are extremely nice, extremely passionate about the Chiefs. Or C, KC Isn't as fun as a city like Las Vegas, but at least I don't gamble all my contract away. What did I once say?"
Dan Byer emerges as the winner by correctly answering the majority of questions, clinching a "swiggy" prize.
Danny G [37:14]:
"That's pretty accurate! Congratulations, Dan."
Throughout the trivia, Mahomes shares snippets about his offseason and personal life, creating a relatable and engaging atmosphere.
Patrick Mahomes [27:26]:
"Have you seen Brittany? Yeah, she's looking good, right?"
Interspersed with the main discussions and trivia, Covino and Danny G provide updates on various sports events, particularly focusing on baseball and the MLB All-Star Game.
Dan Byer [35:24]:
"Blue Jays beat the Yankees 12-5. Springer knocked in seven on the day, including a grand slam."
They also touch upon significant moments in recent sports history, such as Devin Hester's Super Bowl return.
Covino [35:40]:
"That was 105 mile per hour exit velocity. The crowd went nuts for that."
The hosts highlight their participation in the MLB All-Star Week, promoting events like the HBCU Swingman Classic and postgame fireworks.
Covino [40:02]:
"We're broadcasting live from the MLB All-Star Game. Catch the HBCU Swingman Classic presented by T-Mobile..."
As the episode winds down, Covino and Danny G reflect on the day's discussions, reiterating their preference for iPhones while acknowledging the ongoing debate. They express gratitude to their listeners and tease future content, including their upcoming trip to Atlanta for the All-Star festivities.
Covino [19:44]:
"Relevance is a choice. You gotta stay on top of things, whether you want to stand your ground and use the old phone or evolve a little."
Danny G [38:00]:
"We're pumped about our Atlanta All-Star trip. Baseball All-Star break is always fantastic."
Covino [04:58]:
