The whole Would you rather be a Colorado Rocky or Savannah Banana? If money wasn't an issue, there was that stat. Some are saying it's not necessarily true, but this thing. There was like a hundred something people at the Rockies Marlins game. And you know what? We got to give credit now because this may be the only time this year the Rockies won a series. Did you see that? They won two or three. Am I the only one clapping? Am I the only one in the stands? There's only 137 people there because there's like five people. If there's only 137 people there, did it really happen? There's more people at a Little League game. And that's not even a joke. That's crazy. That doesn't even sound right. Makes no sense. So anyway, thank you guys for being here, hanging out with us and joining us at our party too. We're having a big party in Vegas June 20th, 21st. Hope to see you there. Details at Covino and Rich and let's get into it. Man, Tom Brady in the news. This is great. Tom Brady. I feel like much like many people when they retire from playing sports, you get to see a side of them that you're like, oh man, if that was around during your playing career, I probably would have liked even more. I look at Tom Brady as a guy that I respect and like, but even more post retirement. Tom Brady's definitely opened up a lot ever since leaving New England. So is Bill Belichick. Yeah. Oh my God. Does New England do that to a person? By the way, they made Patriot documentaries too soon. We need to see how the Brady and Belichick stories unfold before we take a really good look back. The real Brady and Belichick. They do the man in the arena with Tom Brady. How about we wait 10 more years and see how Belichick's life story unfolds and how Brady's does. Yeah, we needed the after hours rated R version of that documentary. So after a Super bowl, Tom Brady's 10 year old son attended an after party that featured Snoop Dogg and women on polls. Apparently that's the report. Well, not the report. He said it on his podcast. I'm just reading the headline. The report. It says Report. So I'm reading. Report. Okay. Get off me. We're having a time of our life. And I'm like, holy cow, says the Report. If he tells his mother, I ain't gonna see this kid for a long time. Well, we've also heard Tom Brady say that after the roast, which he loved every minute of, he's like, oh, no, I didn't think how this would affect my kids. It's courtesy of the next Effing Go podcast, but that is the Report. And Omron Burgundy. The report. So I'm just reading you the report, and it got us thinking about things you shouldn't understand, things you shouldn't have seen. Yeah. Things you shouldn't have heard. Don't you have a story about walking in on something weird when you were a kid? Yeah. But first, can I tell you Mike who runs this place's story? Who? Mike, who runs this place? Never heard of him. Based on the Tom Brady report and what he said on the let's Effing Go podcast. Mike, who runs this place. And we're gonna get his words of wisdom later on. Mike also brought a 10 year old to a stripper party. No, no, no, no. He said when he was a young warthog. When he was a young boy. I don't know, between the ages of 10 and 13. You know how big Mike, who runs this place looks like an old Stone cold Steve Austin. Yeah. Did he once have hair like stunning Steve Austin? Even when he was 13, he looked like an old man. Kidding. Mike. I've seen pictures of Mike with hair. Yeah, me too. Well, have you seen him on Supermarket Sweep? He's a stallion. He's quite the stallion. He was a stallion. He called him the Bear. They called him the doctor of love. I know, I know. He was breaking hearts. So Mike was having a sleepover with his pal, like kids do, right? And he had a. Used the bathroom in the middle of the night. And he said he's, you know, going through this hallway at his buddy's house. Took a timeout from playing Pac Man. Probably doesn't know which way to go because it's not his house and it's dark and where am I going? He follows the sounds. I even picture him with a low voice as a kid like, where am I going? Yeah. So he's feeling around for the bathroom, and he says he sees his buddy's parents going at it. And he goes. And the worst part, he said, they. Let's just say they were the combined weight of one of your favorite tag teams. As a kid growing up, he was like the big boss man. And came the African dream. It was like going at it, like. Like boxing. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. They were going at it for a few rounds. An intense tickle fight. He said it sort of scarred him. The visual is still burnt into his memory. And yeah, he shouldn't have seen that. And I have another similar story to that. When I was a kid, when I was a teenager, I remember sitting there, I was playing Marble Madness. This is a true story. Playing Marble Madness. Underrated game on my nes. My buddy Scott comes walking into my bedroom and he's beet red. Like beet red. And like smirking. I'm like, what, dude? What? And he's like, bro, I just saw your mom getting undressed from work. Yeah. And he saw it. Things or maybe he should have seen that. I don't know, because he seemed pretty happy about it. So things you shouldn't have seen, but you did or things you shouldn't have heard? Yeah. Because Tom Brady's kid saw some things. Cannot see those things. Cannot see it. As a kid. I remember this. This is a true story. Growing up in Union, New Jersey, there was a nudie bar connected to the local bowling alley, which later, years later, turned into an all nudie bar. Bowling wasn't bringing in the big bus. I guess. So, yeah. It's a true story. And I remember as a little kid, I opened the door. I guess I shouldn't have opened bowling alley. Did you find one that your fingers fit in? No, but talking about bowling. Bowling balls. Bowling balls. I gotta be honest to God, guys. Like, when do you bowl with your buddies? Like 11, right? Thanks for clarifying, Rich. Yeah. I open the door and this older woman looks at me, I'm just a little boy. And she, she gave it a little smackaroo mid dance. And I was like, what the hell? I don't know if I should have seen that. You saw the door open. Ever since then, I. I wanted a bowl every weekend. My parents were like, why does he love bowling? It's so odd. Covino had a 200 average when he was 12. Every weekend I was at the alley, but that nudie bar turned into an all nudie bar connected to the bowling alley. True story. Your favorite bowler was Parker Bone, right? Yeah, Parker Bone. And my personal story, Rich, based on the Tom Brady thing. My other personal story that you were alluding to my report, Steve's report is I remember being. I was a little kid and I was in my grandma's room. I don't know what happened, but she was getting dressed, and I didn't think anything of it, but I saw in the reflection of the mirror, I saw my grandma topless. And I was like, dude, because you don't, you know, you're like, whoa, that's cool. That's my tita. I saw my grandma. You saw some tita? Yeah, yeah. No, those are some floppy. Yeah. I was like, oh, my God, I can't unsee that. I was, like, a little scarred for life. Seriously, I saw some things I shouldn't have seen. And that's the story of Tom Brady's son. He was 10 years old, saw some things he probably shouldn't have seen. And Brady was talking about it. So we open it up to you. Fox Sports Radio Nation. Or maybe a place or something happened, you know, I probably shouldn't have brought my kid there. Like, a lot of people bring their kid to a bar or somewhere where it's like, man, maybe I shouldn't have. Were we all. Is this just a me memory? Or did anyone else's mom bring them to a bar to get their dad who was inside the bar? Because that happened to me. Swear to God. My mom would send me into the bar to get my dad, and I'd be tugging on his pant leg. Mom says you gotta come home. My mom brought me to the police station to get my dad. Hey, true story. I'm not sure we should have seen that Danny G. But we did, and we're better for it. Remember when you were a kid, you even had that feeling of, like, I don't think I'm supposed to see this. Yes. My dad played poker at, like, a grimy underground game. Oh, and like, you know, like, the basement of the VFW hall. Yeah, everyone's smoking cigars. They got, like, a pay per view fight on wood paneling. There's probably, like, floozies of the night. My dad forgot, like, his keys or something, and my mom's like, run them into your father. And I felt like, remember when the kids in Goonies went into that abandoned house where the Fratellis were and, like, we're not supposed to be here. Well, you know, that's the feeling you get. So funny, man. It's the premise of a Bronx tale as well. Little Cologero. Calogero. Calogero. Little Calogero is sitting there on the stoop in the Bronx, and there's a little bit of a tussle. The kid thinks it's over a parking space, but it's not. It's gangster stuff, mob stuff, and he watches a Murder is the story of Chaz Palm of Theory. He made that movie. But he saw some stuff as a little kid that he shouldn't have seen. And he wasn't a snitch. He kept it to himself. And that's what the story's all about. So again, we're talking about this because Tom Brady was talking about his son. Let's get to your phone calls. Yeah. What did he say? He said when his son was 10, there was a Super bowl after party with Snoop Dogg weed and women on poles. Yeah. Like that was, you know. And he said if his ex wife had found out, no bueno. He said, man, I'm not gonna see this kid for a long time. So based on that, and honestly, it sounds bad, but it's all in fun. That's just life, right? Back in the day, if you grew up in the 80s, how many pictures did your parents take of you with like a cigarette hanging out of your mouth or holding a beer in the washing machine? Like, you know. Absolutely. Growing up back then, it was different. And I'll give you a modern day one. We live in la, and of course weed is legal. Honestly, I'm sure it was a fun moment for. For Tommy and his little son. In fact, marijuana is legal most places now, right. It didn't dawn on me. My. My wife was out for the day, and I remember my son wasn't born yet, so I was with my daughter, who was in a stroller. I'm pushing a stroller on Ventura Boulevard, and I remember my wife saying, like, hey, do you want to get some of those edible drinks later? And I was like, yeah, sure. And I went to go into the weed shop with the baby stroller, and that's not allowed. And they made me feel like I was the worst human ever. I'm like, kids are allowed in liquor stores with their parents, right? Yeah, yeah, I guess so, yeah. Is it the stroller itself that was prohibited or the infant child or both? This, like, burnout that worked at the weed shop looked at me like I was. Kids aren't gonna remember anything. Like the worst human. Yeah. My daughter might have been six months old. And I was like, it's not her brain and can't record those things yet. And I was like, yes. All right. Just fun fact. So, you know, she wouldn't know what it is anyway. She'd be like, oh, you're in some kind of little store, things you shouldn't have seen, but you did. And now you can't unsee it. Once the toothpaste is out of the tube, that's it. It's burnt in your memory forever. Let's, let's chop it up. Let's get involved. Just also proving Tom Brady's got real good stories. And, and he was a good sport about it too. Like, I don't know, I think it kind of makes him cooler. I think it's, it is a rite of passage. Growing up, you see things, especially kids today. Give me a break. I have a question. What kids are seeing today on social media and on the Internet? Oh my God. Yeah. You know what you had? What do you want to give a hobo to buy a, you know, $10 porn magazine? Kids could just google now. It's terrible. We gotta work for it, by the way. That's another thing. My dad listens. Oh, he'll. Maybe he'll learn this for the first time. You ever like go through your parents stuff because you're just being a nosy kid. Well, you sort of are a modern day Kimmy Gibbler Butinski type of guy. Vicky Gibler. You tell me. No one else in this room just happened to be in their parents room. And you're like, you know, you were looking for something like, I wonder if that has magic markers or something. Had no possessions. My dad had one. My dad was designated one drawer in the whole bedroom. He had a shoehorn and a pack of cards. My dad had nothing. You never happen to stumble upon one of your dad's nudie magazines? No. Ever? Never? No. What if your dad had a faux drawer that was like a fake drawer that like was underneath the original drawer? And then that's where all the good stuff was. Like a gun, nudie magazines, like a pack of cigarettes. Pack of cigarettes. His little stash of alcohol, cocaine. Different identities, different passports. Some, some Polaroids of all the neighborhood women. What? That has magnums? I wish dad was Matt Damon. He had different ideas. My dad is Jason Bourne. What's going on here? The premise of every cheesy movie. That's really funny. So based on that, let's get into your stories and share a little bit. You know why? Because everyone thinks you are stuffy like Tom Brady. Well done us that you're not. That was point. Part two of the question. I thought was, first of all, you know what, what is your story a la Tom Brady? When you saw or heard something you shouldn't have. But I gotta ask this because it's on my mind. If the Tom Brady and Bill Belichick we're getting now. Were the ones that were the dynasty, would we have hated them as much? No way. No, because they become way more likable. Or maybe, maybe they were so business back then that now they unleash and they've let loose because they were so buttoned up for so long that if in the 2000s Belichick was, you know, that's a question in itself. You think they were like that then or they've evolved into that or were they just covering it up because they were so business? I don't know. But I'm saying great question. If you had light hearted TB12 and Bill Belichick that was chasing 20 year old Tael back in the 2000s, would they have gone from hateable New England, Boston area dynasty to like, yo, they're sort of cool. It would have been more of a circus for sure. Like, wow. The thing is they're more like Gronk than you think. Probably Gronk just wasn't covering it up. Right, right. So we got stories. What are yours? Who do you want to talk to? Let's say hi to Tony in Oregon. Tony Kavino and Rich. What's up, man? Hey, great topic you guys. Thanks, man. This takes me back to my first housework. My neighbor Chuck lived there till I was about 12 years old. Used car salesman, had some money and a swimming pool and he'd bring over ladies of the night and they like to float around in the pool with no clothes on. And we climb the tree and we enjoyed. Probably shouldn't have been seeing it, but I'm glad we saw it. You know, you made me think of a story Covino's told many a times on our Patreon back in the series XM Days. On your way to school one day, true story, Covino cut through a neighbor's yard. You know when like you realize there's a way shorter way, like if I just cut through this neighbor's yard, I could like cut my commute, my walking. Yeah. The amount of fences we climbed as kids in the 80s and 90s, yo, kids will never know now as an adult if some kid cut through my yard. I kicked their ass. Yeah, we were cutting through yards left and right and I, and I heard a woman go, hey. And I thought someone was gonna yell at me, right. For cutting in the yard. And she flashed me and I took this path. That's not what I was expecting. Oh yeah. And I took this path every day waiting for it out again. And it was a one time thing. It was just a One time thing, but man changed my life. You're trampling my hostas now. Look at this. Yep. Yep. So things you shouldn't have seen. Maybe it was a late night movie that you shouldn't have seen. Maybe it was something that your parents were doing, you know, share the story. You saw it. It's all good. You survived. People overreact too, you know, like, not that big of a deal. I'm sure Brady's son is just fine. And it's a funny memory looking back, you know that my dad's been known to be like the life of the party type of guy. Oh yeah. And I'm sure he loves me sharing this story, but he's an old man. He's a 70 year old guy living life. I'm pretty sure. The story goes, we're all like a family party with like, you know, my mom and dad's friends and everyone was drinking, probably doing God knows what and late night, all the kids were, you know when you slept over like your parents friend's house on that random like the one time like everyone. We're sleeping over, everyone was drinking too much. I think I heard some like splashing. And the story goes that some of the adults were skinny dipping and my dad was one of them. And my mother was furious. Like your stupid father. Aw, little Richie shouldn't have seen that. Looking out the window, being like, what's going on out there? Speaking of swimming, you ever go to a community pool and throw on some goggles? Back in the 80s, you saw some things underwater that maybe you shouldn't have seen. True. I don't know how to explain what I'm talking about. Hygiene wasn't a thing back then. Yeah, but I remember like putting like hands, doing weird things. Grooming took a backseat back then. Grooming definitely took a back seat back then. It was the 80s at the local Y or Elks club or whatever pool. Knights of Columbus, you're like, oh my goodness, what's going on under there? Chris, Ohio, you're on. Kavin on red. What's up fellas? Always love listening to your show on the way home. Thanks, man. My story isn't as X rated as this conversation has gone so far, but I want to share about my first trip to the dog po at the Cleveland Browns game. It's about six or seven years old. This is like 99, 2000 time. Browns are playing the Bengals. My dad wants to break me in. So we're sitting in the dog town and for the Bengals, Achilles Smith runs out right in front of the dog pound. He's the quarterback for the Bengals at the time. Starts beating his chest, and I heard every word, bad word, cuss word, you can think under the sun. The N word, the F word, a word, everything under the sun. And that's only thing I could ask my dad on the way home. Not talk about the game. Was just talking about what does everything, every single one of those words mean as a. What's going on? Six or seven. Six or seven year old. So, you know, Chris, you bring up a good point. You were six or seven. I feel that way if you got little kids. Good story. Kavino, you got a teenage daughter now. Yeah, but I remember when you would go to concerts with her when she was like, 8, 9, 10, and you start smelling all the weed at a concert. Yeah, yeah, I know. I've had friends tell me their kids are like, mom and dad, what's that smell? It's incense, honey. Oh, yeah, yeah. But that's. That's one of those conversations that you have to have with your kids. You go to see, you bring them to a concert, and everyone's high, got a little crazy. They're having fun. And he's quoted as saying, we're having time. Oh, he learned something. Says, we're having the time of our life. And I'm like, holy, holy cow. If he tells his mother, I ain't gonna see this kid for a long time. That's courtesy of the let's have Go podcast. So what are some other stories where you saw some stuff that maybe you shouldn't have seen or you felt like, Man, I don't know if I should be watching this right now. I got a sports related one. Rich. I always bring up this reference because to me, it's always so random and funny. And then we'll get to the phone calls and wrap it up. Go ahead. I'm writing it down because I feel like you're gonna say it. Really? Yeah. It's a. It's a legendary Yankees moment, right? And it's Mariano Rivera's last pitch. And I'm sure you guys have seen the clip. Jeter and Pettit come out like their managers, and they take out Rivera, and Rivera crumbles in their arms. Do you guys remember this? I remember that he starts crying and sobbing, and it's like, wow, this is so emotional, man. This is, like, way emotional. This is crazy. It's his last pitch. Legendary Mariano Rivera, number 42. The last number 42. And there was a guy on the mound with them, just staring at the whole thing, probably thinking, I don't know if I should be seeing this. I don't know if I should be in this moment right now. And that was catcher J.R. murphy, John Ryan Murphy. It wasn't Joe Girardi. It wasn't Jorge Posada. It wasn't any of your famous catchers that come to mind when you think of the Yankees. It was some random catcher, but he had to go to the mound because he had to go to the mound, and he. They almost cut him out of the moment because it just looked so odd that it was Jeter Pettit and Moe Rivera in this really emotional moment. And here's this guy. Like, I don't know if I should be here. I'm barely on the team right now. What that feeling is like when a longtime employee of a company retires, and you're sort of like the new guy. Yeah. And you're like, everyone's paying tribute to you, man. We've worked together decades. And you're like, I've known this guy three weeks. I don't know if I should be here. But yeah. And, you know, you're just there and you witness it, but you feel like you shouldn't have. What are those stories for you? Didn't someone ask you. You don't have to call it the person, but wasn't there a scenario? Because you talk for a living. Someone asked you to speak like a wake or a funeral, and you're like, I don't know the person that well. You know what? I think people always do that to me. So there's that. I'm like, hey, just because I'm on the radio doesn't mean I want to hop on the microphone at this. At this event. Right? But my brother was asked to do a speech at a wedding for someone he didn't even know. He's like, I don't know if I'm the guy for this. I'm like, I barely know the dude. So, again, thank you guys for sharing your stories. Let's wrap it up with your phone calls. And I know Danny G. Has a story about a musician. I think we'll. We'll go rapid fire, and then again, we'll talk a little Travis Hunter. And, like, man, some of these decisions young athletes are making. Timing. You're on in Tejas. What's up, Timmy? Hey, guys. How are y' all? What's up, man? So this was when I was, like, 9 or 10. I was looking for my mom for whatever reason I can't remember. So I Just busted into like my parents room and I caught them being, you know, getting busy. They were doing the nasty dance and shuffle. I'm like at my mid-40s right now and I'm still scarred from that. Yeah, that's. You know what, that's something kids should not see. But what are you gonna do? That's life. But man. Oh, can you imagine? That's never happened to anybody here, right? I hope. No, but I, I hear stories. Our pal Nicole, who I do that parenting podcast with. Yeah, her door lock of her bedroom apparently doesn't work, so her kids are constantly just barging in. And she has multiple stories where she had to be like, oh, daddy was examining something I had on my inner thigh. Oh my God, I got sun. So daddy was, you know, rubbing lotion on me. Things you shouldn't have seen, like, you know, knock on your parents door. Kids just. I feel like I have this memory not clear, but it's just like an example of what we're talking about. Like, you ever at a buddy's house maybe, and your buddy's parents start fighting, you're like, yeah, I don't know if I, I don't know if I should be seeing this right now. Yeah, like, super awkward. Like, I'm gonna go home, I think. Later. More phone calls. 87799 on Fox. You're a. Timmy's playing Nintendo and his. And his mom's like, why don't you go off with your whore? Should I go home? I'm gonna go home for dinner, guys. Later. All right, Virginia, Dan, you're on. Hey, what's happening? This is Dan in Virginia. Great show, guys. Thanks, man. When I was maybe like 11, 12 years old, my grandfather was in town visiting and he was a night owl. We play cards, stay up at night. We were watching tv and late night Skinemax came on. Do you guys remember that? This is before Internet and all that stuff. Do you mean what I used to tape on VHS tapes and label Niners versus Bears so my mom would never find it. That's the one. Yep, exactly. You know, you're. You're on my radar. There was one I used to. I remember Bikini car wash company. That was a good. Max was great, good stuff. And now it was, it was a little soft core, but it was still a lot of action for a 12 year old. And it came on. And grandpa, he just left it on. He never looked at me. He just. He had it on. I looked at him. He just was glued to the tv and it just, it just remained like that for, like 20 minutes. That's amazing. That's so funny. That's a conversation. That's a common memory, I think, for everybody. That's like a conversation even for another day. When those weird scenes came on and you were with your folks, your grandparents. My grandfather and I, who was like. He was like my best pal. Every Friday night, my grandfather and I would go to Blockbuster or Hollywood Video, whatever, and we rent, like, a Seagal or Van Damme movie. That was our thing, late 80s. And there's a scene in one of those your grandpa didn't take. You, like, behind the beaded part of the video, right past the saloon doors, there was a. I believe it was. Remember the one where there were two Van Dammes? Like, Double Impact or something? Yeah. There's a shower scene where he's with a woman naked. And I remember the same thing where I'm like, is grandpa gonna, like, fast forward to turn this off, or are we just gonna awkwardly watch this thing? And Grandpa left it on. Grandpa doesn't care. Grandpa wants to see it. The old men do what they want to do. Grandfather said. And how. Grandpa no. At home, at least. Like, your mom or dad could take the remote control and fast forward past the scene. They didn't want you to be in the same blindfold and earmuffs. Right. But when you were at the movies with them and a scene would come on. That was so. It was like torture being, like, in the same theater next to your parents when something like that was on the screen. It's so awkward, too, when you're a kid. Yeah. I went to see Edward Scissorhands with. It was my mom and I. And you're like, okay. I was probably 8. I don't even know. It was like whenever the movie came out. Yeah. So I was a little kid. And the scene where. I don't want to spoil it here, but Edward Scissorhands, I think you can spoil Edward. Edward Scissorhands impales 35 years. Is it Michael Anthony hall who plays the bully in that movie who's like the bad guy, the bad boyfriend? I think it is. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, he dies? Well, let's just say he gets impaled by hands made of scissors. And my mom actually covered my. And then I, like, opened her fingers and watched the scene. She was like, no, that is funny. It was like just. It was like some, you know, moderate violence. My dad would half ass, by the way, Doug Gottlieb just set us up. Never heard of Edward Scissorhands. Never Heard of him, Sam, you know, when you think of those movies, I remember my dad used to always watch Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks, and he would your parents ever do, like, hey, cover your eyes for a second, and they'd, like, left it on you, like. And you'd be like, okay. And by the way, it was an older Anthony Michael Hall. You know, that movie was made in 1990. He wasn't that much older, but he played the bully. He was like a high school bully. I know, but we know him from all those movies. He looks different. He's, like, beefier. He's, like, more muscular. I did that this past holiday season. The movie Love, actually, Kavino loves to point out, has, like, some nudity in it. And I was watching with the family, and then I was like, yeah, Kavino's right. Kids, you know, look away for a second. Yeah. I mean, I don't know if I should be seeing this right now. Let's take one more for now, and then we'll. We'll go to our buddy Isaac for an update. Andy in Rhode Island. What's up, Andy? Hey. Oh, gabagool. What's up? When I was a young warthog. When he was a young war, I walked into my. My dad's basement where we. He had a studio. And, you know, the band, you know, they're catching some traction. And, you know, the guys were downstairs practicing. My dad wasn't downstairs. And, you know, I got a little curious, went downstairs to see what the guys are up to. I walked into the room, and the lead guitarist and the lead singer are blowing lions. They close the door behind me. They throw. They put their hand over my shoulder like, hey, Andy, here's some cash. So they took out a lot of money. They gave me. They gave me some money and. They gave you hush money. Hush money. You saw nothing, kid. Yeah. You saw nothing. See? Yeah. Yeah. That's hilarious. Yeah. So let's go to Isaac for an update. Isaac, what is going on, buddy? 49ers and bears, huh? All right, just taking some notes on that last segment. Isaac. I'm not even joking. I found it the other day. I'm doing spring cleaning. I'm trying to condense memories, and my wife's like, do you have. What are these home videos? And I have one labeled 49ers bears. And I kid you not, it is like Skinmix. That's not the 49ers. That's not Roger Craig. That's not Tom. Jim Rathman, Jim McMahon naked. That's a woman. That's not Mike Ditka refrigerator at the 1988 NFC championship game.

First Juan Soto woke up. 3, 2 pitch, swung on and crushed out to right field. Hernandez will just give it a courtesy look and watch it fly into the pavilion. And right field for Juan Soto. He wins the battle with kershaw. It's a two run shot, number 11. And it's a four three Dodgers lead in the third. And Juan Soto said I could be he. Yeah, that's great and all, but it ended on a Brandon Nimmo error, otherwise known as a shot by Freddie Freeman. Swung on and hit deep left. Back goes Nimmo. Still going back. This ball is off the wall. Around third is Edmond. The Dodgers are gonna win it. Freddie Freeman with a walk off double and the Dodgers win it six to five in 10 innings. Yeah. Freddie Freeman with a walk off error by Brandon Nimmo. Congratulations. If he never touched a ball. Yeah, exactly. I don't think so. Yeah, but it was. Do you See how misplayed that ball was? It's a scoreboard. Doesn't that was a routine fly ball, Yo, Dodgers one. I'm just saying, like I hate. I wish Freddie Freeman would have hit a home run, Danny. That way it would have been like. Okay, dude, where you're interrupting Tyrex play of the day. Hey, game three of this awesome, like random June series. Danny G. I'm excited, man. Yeah, I am too. And it's nice to see Muncie come alive because he started the season off in a slump. Dude, I'm so glad you said that. By the way, that was all courtesy of our friends at Tyrant, one of our other sponsors, DraftKings. I'm doing one of my pick six home run deals. Oh, and I gave you Muncie last weekend, remember? And he hit a home run that weekend. I much like many people, I'm always one leg shy of these little parlays, these pick sixes I missed. Fernando Tatis was the only one that didn't deliver for me the other day was one of those like $10 wins. 1200. Well, knuckleheads. Hey, you big A holes, why don't you give me one each tonight? Give me a Dodger, a Met and a Yankee. Who's going to hit a home run. Well, I feel like Juan Soto against a righty. You got. The Mets are, Mets are pitching. Canning Kavino, your Yankees are fight, I believe. Facing Cruz, who's a right hander. Let's go. I'm going obvious here. For real Judge? Yeah. Aaron Judge, he's. I mean, yeah, he's going to hit. He's always three days, he's always due. I'm going to say Edmund. So funny you would say that. Big Mike said Edmund. I'm like, he doesn't really hit many home runs. Is it you feeling it? Yeah. All right. You know, he's so good, it's gross. The Dodgers are so good. And you're right about this whole series has been great to watch. And before we move on underrated the Mets bullpen. I have to say it because for the real baseball fans like Edwin Diaz is back. Like Garrett rubber zone. Like the Mets got like Mets got pretty deep in the bullpen. I really think much like a lot of teams, they have pretty decent pitching and that's what makes, that's what makes October exciting. Danny, we're four months away, but I'm curious to see what the Dodgers do with their pitching because they have so many on the il. And then you wonder, will Shohei Ohtani. I Know they got him throwing simulated games, but there's an argument to keep him off the mound because Shohei Ohtani, a lot of people saying he should close the games too. Maybe. Rich, Rich, you're gonna have to roll in your extra TV tonight because it's the start of the NHL Stanley Cup. That is true. But I got to ask you, as a Dodgers fan, do you want Ohtani pitching when the guy's hitting bombs every day? Like, no, I said this last year, remember? That I would just leave it alone the way it is right now. I mean, you're paying him a lot, but he's made that money back for your organization just by being the biggest star in the world. But I'm saying if the guy's batting like 300, leads league and home runs, why are you going to fiddle with every fifth or sixth day worrying about him pitching? How are you going to stop him though, is the question. Like he really wants to pitch again. Yeah, but then there's the argument that people are saying maybe on occasion then you have to give him a rest day. And now you're going to take him out of the lineup. It stinks. You can't pitch his guy every fifth or sixth day and have him be an every single day player. So some great baseball to watch, the Stanley Cup Final, Panthers, Oilers, some great sports to get into and more to get into here on the Cavino and Rich show. You know what, before I like it, before we move on to Travis Hunter, prenups and Nosferatu, there's a funny story from Fox Sports Radio earlier today. Danny. To wrap up this Tom Brady bringing his 10 year old around. Snoop Dogg and strippers. It got the conversation going. Last hour. Things when you were a kid that you know you shouldn't have seen or heard. You had one last story to wrap it up. Yeah, So I was in my twenties. I guess you still could have called me a kid. It was my first full time program director job for a hip hop station and a recording artist who I will never look at the same again. His record company threw a big party for him, hotel suite. And they used to use the, the bathtubs in the suite. They filled them with ice and they used that as the cooler for all the drinks. Very classy. The drank. Drank. Yeah. So I don't know if I should say the artist's name. His, his name rhymes with, let's see, Musta Limes. Okay. Now his longtime hype man column, Clif Bar told me, hey AG go get me a drink and grab yourself One. I look over towards the bathroom door, and he's like, no, no. I've been sitting here the whole time. Nobody's in there. I got set up big time. I walk in. Musta Limes is in the bathroom, blocking the bathtub with two women doing unspeakable things. And I quickly turn. Oh, my God, you know, so awkward. And I turned around and walked out, and his hype man was laughing. He's like, ah. He's like. He's going mad. You walked in on him. Wow. Yeah. And so now whenever I see that rapper, I try to burn that vision out of my mind. Mustard limes, right? Mustard. Mustard limes. Musta limes. Jump, jump. So we'll wrap it up with your phone calls real quick, and then we got to move on. All right. We have other things to talk about. We'll talk some Travis Hunter and Mike's Wednesday words of wisdom. All right, let's say hi to Rich in Tacoma. Hey, Rich. Hey. How y' all guys doing? What's up, man? I love y' all show, man. Oh, thank you. I had to call in on this one. I was about 11 years old, right? And my dad. We were living in Alexander, Virginia, at the time. My dad had this company. He was a Handyman for century 21. So he would go and clean all the houses after they kick people out, right? So I'm going helping him throw out the trash and stuff. And one of his workers put the magazines in the truck. And my dad, at the end of the day, he told me to go to the truck and wait. And wait for them to come, right? It was Hustlers. Oh. And I was like. It blew my mind that I was so such a shock. My dad caught me looking at the magazine and reminds me, my dad is a deacon, ex jail sergeant. He went off. He. He went off. But I. Hey, that's the first time I ever saw a woman naked. Yeah, you can't unsee that. Everybody remembers that first moment. I wish Sam brought up a great point off the air. He said, a lot of dads have pulled their son aside and done uncle's brothers. Uncle's brothers. Like, hey, we don't tell mom about this, all right? This is between us. Yeah, you're gonna see some stuff. We don't talk to mom about this. Yeah, you don't bring it up. Okay. Dad, Big Bert, Georgia. What's up? Hey, man. Thank you guys for having me, man. Love the show. Hey, you guys need to embrace it that you put a fire on the Colorado Rockies and put Some of that Covino on Rich, Mojo on them. They may go to the World Series. You know what? They can win 40 of their next 50. Get right back in this thing. Banana, Savannah Banana who? And I'm from Georg. Yeah, they saw spots video clip about, you'd rather be a banana, Rich. And they've been undefeated since. You know who reached out to us, by the way? Patrick Rena, the great hambino, reached out and said he enjoyed our clip. We might have him on soon. The great hamburger. Hey, quick story. So. So I was a big AV nerd back in the day. I was 14 year old at the family barbecue. And my cousin's room was kind of where all the kids hang out. And they said, you know, they said, bert, go fix the vcr. Something's wrong with the vcr, man. The kids can't watch, you know, whatever movies. So me being, me thinking, who the heck put this TV together? Got it working, hit play. And it was a damn Diddy freak off kind of thing going on. And here's the worst part. Here's the worst part is we're. We're sitting there. Before I could turn it off, grandma Esme comes in and now she's looking at me. Oh, man. Yo, big burp got red handed. Yo, last one. These are great calls, Jorge. Fort Lauderdale. What's up, man? What up, Jorge? What up, fellas? Great show, man. Let me start off by saying, let's go Panthers tonight. The tailgate has started. N. Yeah. Only reason I'm telling this story is because my parents are no longer with us. Because if not, there's no way I'd be able to do it. But when I was a kid, my dad had a collection of guns. There was this one, he had a.45 caliber handgun that I was just in love with him. When they weren't home, I would go and search it out and I would find it. And they'd caught me playing with it a few times. So they would switch the hiding spot in different places in the house because they had caught me so many times fudging with it. I know looking back, it's insane. You know, I was like 12 years old, but you're a little kid playing with a gun. What the hell you doing? What was your obsession, your maniac? It was just. It was just a cool looking as a kid. We'd go shooting with them all the time and it was just the coolest looking, like black nickel metal.45 caliber gun with like a tan handle. And I was just like enthralled by It. But I'd go and I'd look for it, and he'd catch me playing with it. My dad never kept a clip with it because they knew what. What I've done. Just what a menace I was. So one of these instances, I was. They weren't home, and I was looking for it, and I found my dad's porno magazine stash, and I was like, this is fantastic. This is even better. Now I'm gonna play with something else. Thank you. Jorge, by the way. So stupid. This guy is. Super 49ers against the Bears. Yep. I think his dad would prefer he played with a magazine over a gun in a magazine, if you know what I mean. Yep. Thank you. Hey, thanks for sharing your stories, feedback, and if you want to continue sharing at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. You know what? We could zip past this real quick, because I do want to talk about Travis Hunter, but a couple hours ago on Fox Sports Radio, there was. There was a debate on the Got Leap show where everyone except I was Sam, made him feel like Nosferatu was something that no one knew. How did it come up, by the way? Yeah, how'd this all come up? I was Sam. So because it was buzzing in the hallways when we got here, I was like, I always like to run with the hallway buzz. Hallway buzz. Let me just get. Okay, so Jason Stewart, Doug Ollie's producer. This morning, he said, we're going to talk about this for the midway. Will the NBA ever create a finals that mirrors the Super Bowl? Adam Silver was on this show, FS one show called Breakfast Ball, talking about he'd like to make the finals as big of a deal as the Super Bowl. Hard to do, by the way. Yeah. And then I. I reply, nosferatu appears in the sunlight, and no one replies. So I'm saying, like, oh, Adam Silver the vampire shows up during daylight hours to talk about the NBA Finals, and no one got it. And by the way, he does look like Nosferatu. Thank you. And so Isaac, Jason, and Doug were like, yeah, we don't know what that is. And then, like, one by one, I kept having more. More and more people coming to me, like Mike, Big Mike Berschinger, and you guys. And they're like, how do they not know who Nosferatu is? There's so many pop culture references. If you grew up listening to Howard Stern, he would quote and pretend to be Nosferatu all the time. There's a spongebob reference that a whole generation is obsessed with, where Nosferatu appears on SpongeBob. It's a classic silent film from 1920 characters. Been around for over 100 years. To me, he was always synonymous with Dracula, but it turns out he's like a low budget Dracula, right? He was, yeah. A different vampire. And the reason I know even more about it now is because within the past year, the remake happened and it was buzzing everywhere. Nominated for an Academy Award. So it's like, if you're into horror movies, how do you not know Nosferatu? Now listen, I. You should know Dracula and you should know Nosferatu in terms of high profile vampires over here. Shaking his head, he's like, yeah, it's kind of wild that everyone there was making Sam feel like he was the crazy one. I'm not saying I'm. I'm not saying I'm Team Sam, where everyone loves and knows Nosferatu. Isaac Lonecron. My argument is, even if you aren't a sci fi horror type of guy, the remake alone, like a year ago, put it back on the maps for even the people like, who the hell is Nosferatu? The Skarsgard guy was. He played Nosferatu in the movie. I'm not angry about this. I'm actually disappointed. I held the two of you in such high regard. I thought you guys were so cool, like, too cool for it. Then I see this word that I literally have never seen before in my entire life. Nosferatu. Nosferatu. And I'm like, what? Well, there's also very famous memes of Adam Silver comparing Silver to Nosferatu. I know that Silver is. Well, he looks more like one of the aliens in one of the first Men in Black movies. But that's a debate we can have for another time. But the point is here, I didn't think that you two, who are the, like, right up there with the coolest guys I've ever met in my life. It honestly took you guys down a peg in my mind, to be honest. I don't know Nosferatu. Oh, by the way, Isaac, I don't know who Nosferatu. Thank you for the kind words. On second thought, never heard of him. Sam, you're on your own. You know what? One last thought about that and we'll get to Mike's words of wisdom. We were talking also about things that you would think everyone knows and they don't. You know, there's other, I hate to say foreign sports, but foreign sports that we aren't as familiar with. Like, I doubt we all know the rules of rugby here in the World cricket. Like, you know, I've been on vacation, and you go to the islands and they love cricket, and you're like, you know, I just don't know the rules. It's funny. As baseball's becoming more of an international game and Shohei is the biggest star in the world, and, yeah, everyone's tuning in. There's this overseas viral movement of people just discovering now that baseball field dimensions are all different. Yeah, it's really funny. It's not the diamond. The diamond's always the same. But we know that the outfield is always different. And other cultures and people jumping onto the sport are just realizing that now. It's really funny. Watching. Watching international fans just figure it out is funny. So no one felt the need to tell me that every Major League Baseball field has got a completely different shape and size. And I don't mean, like how Old Trafford is five yards bigger than Craven Cottage. Oh. I mean that Major League Baseball teams are literally allowed to shape and size their fields to however they want. I realized this the other day when I was watching back the LA Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks game. So the goat, Shohei Otani, goes up to bat this ball, and as soon as he made contact, I thought, this is definitely a home run. Then as the camera switches to the outfield, I see this massive green wall. And then the commentator says, well, Steve, this would have been a home run in 28 of the 30 Major League Baseball ballparks. And I was like, so they're cheating there. That's sort of the point. That's it. They're all different. This international trend where they're just now realizing around the world that United States baseball and baseball for that matter, everywhere dimensions are different in every stadium. And I think the history is they. Because they were trying to fit a lot of these stadiums in industrial parts and cities where there wasn't a lot of space. So they just ran with the space that they had. Correct me if I'm wrong here. The. The dimensions of the diamond, like the dirt, are all the same. All the same. But the actual home run distance. Exactly. Outfield is bigger or smaller. Exactly. Yeah. So based on the Nosferatu and based on the fact that people are just figuring that out now, what's worse to not know? Think about it. Yeah, think about it. I think it might be worse to not know that baseball fields are all different, but not to know Nosferatu. Sort of. I'll go with the baseball one then. Make Sam feel bad about it. Yeah. Well, hey, listen, he makes Isaac feel Good about it. Isaac's a great guy. I want to make him feel. I love Isaac. Hey, I did want to get to this. I know we got lots to get to. We're going to get to spots midweek, major in a little bit. Travis Hunter. There's a story, and I find this guy great. I follow him on social media. He was a. He used to be a regular guest on our show back in the day. He's like a divorce attorney that does really interesting videos on social media. His name is James Sexton. Really charismatic guy. For anyone going through divorce or separation, he's really, like, the expert on, like, how to make it work the best. This guy, we've known him for, what, 15 years? At least. Yeah, he's like the no BS, straightforward kind of guy. And I remember this stuff. He would come up with the injustice that mostly men have to go through. And. And unfortunately, he. He would always bring up, hey, listen, guys, you might be happy in your relationship, but you go through a divorce during the unanticipated worst times. So the idea of a prenuptial agreement isn't sabotaging your marriage. His argument is make this. Make this work for you. When you guys are happy with each other. So then when things possibly do go bad, there's no questions. Yeah. Like, do it at a time when you could actually talk reasonably, not when you're hating each other. Like, I mean, listen, there's still people that say, you shut your mouth when you're talking to me. She wants my miles. You know, you got to remember, some people think, no matter what prenups bad, I'll never do it. But because it screams to the other person that you don't trust this relationship. We saw this, unfortunately, season eight of Love is Blind. Remember Rich? Yeah. The one. The girl's family, the female, wanted to have one for the guy. Well, because she came from money and she was a success story, and he seemed like he didn't have his s together. The question is if you're Travis Hunter, because this is the story that goes along with this. This guy, James Stexson is offering all of the members of the 2025 NFL Draft Class Free prenup consultations. And they should take him up on it because Travis Hunter. Because you realize that the breadwinner really doesn't own anything. Yeah, that's what. I had a home until I got divorced. Then I realized I didn't have a home anymore. Your condo's nice. Yeah. No, but it's the truth. You know, all the things that you thought were yours, you realize, I guess they're not mine. I guess. Yeah. Well, Travis Hunter recently got married, and there were two. There were three things that stood out. His now wife, where the wedding band goes. She got a dollar sign tattoo that could be a red flag. He did, like, a big reveal where, as a wedding gift, also gave her an expensive vehicle worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. And on top of all this, no prenuptial agreement. And I'm not saying anything bad about this woman, but when you're Travis Hunter, don't you sort of want to play it safe? Like, hey, listen, baby, baby girl, I love you, you love me. We're a happy family. But God forbid something goes wrong. I'm just trying to protect myself. That's show that there's a good chance that something can go wrong. There's a 40, 50% chance around. 50%? Yeah. There's a. There's a 50% chance. There's a flip of a coin that this could go bad. I'm not gonna leave you high and dry. I'm not gonna go live with my mama cause you not in love. I mean, I'm not gonna leave you with nothing. But the sentiment here is, I'll protect you, you protect me. But we should put something in place. Do you think every athlete should require some type of prenuptial agreement? Yes. And should the woman have to accept? What about, like, Patrick Mahomes, though, where it was a high school sweetheart? Yeah. These are like the right. These are those rare exceptions, like the. We've known each other since we're 16. And yeah, she. He probably couldn't have done it without her and her support. Yeah, I mean, he was a doofus in high school. Like, he. He got a girlfriend, like, that was a class above him. You know what I'm saying? His dad was a big leaguer, so she sort of maybe knew. Doesn't make him less of a doofus when he was in high school. Yeah, that is true. I saw. He said himself, like, I was awkward and weird around her, and I'm lucky that she liked me. I think those stories of the high school romance, that's an easy. What's it called? Like. Like it was roll you. She was rolled into this because I think it's an easy way to just say, if you were there before that happened, then you don't have to worry about it. I think that's after the contract you guys got together, then why not a prenup? It should be almost mandatory to protect life. She's Been his girlfriend and fiance all through college. Right, Right. So if she. Where does that start, though? I think. I think it's. Man, that's a good one, Danny. Where. Where does that starting point start for the guy? Man, you should get a prenup. And by the way, that's. It's not sexist because this would apply to women in sports or women who bring home the bacon. That's for anybody who's the breadwinner that has a lot to lose. Women from. I'd. If JLo would have told Casper the backup dancer back in the day, like, like. But why JLo? Why do we need a prenup? You know why we need one. I don't know if we need a prenup. Jlo, why are you saying you don't trust me in this relationship? Well, I'm. I feel a little offended now that you want to put him up. Maybe I think you Muppet. All of a sudden I feel like I'm watching the Muppet Show. You remember. You don't remember JLo? Did you guys park? Do you. Do you guys feel like you were witnessing something you shouldn't have seen? By the way, Kavino, your Ben Affleck needs some work. No, that was my Casper. No, I know what I thought. A great story recently was Dave Portnoy from Barstool, who I very much admire. Successful guy. His ex wife still has access to all their accounts because he's like, yo, she was with me when I couldn't afford a sandwich. Now he's, you know, multi millionaire, trusts her to get a. Trust her. It's a separate account though. But he's filled it with money. Yeah, and I think that there's a level of trust with those old school boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives. But if you're a 23 year old and you're just getting married, you know, the same month you sign your first NFL deal. I hate to say it because you want to be good spirited and trust people, but. But is there any harm in saying babe, just for both of us? No. Because I'll tell you what happens. And this is from experience, and not just my experience, it's other people's experience that I've seen it turns into. It's not a matter of them just trying to F you over. It's what they're entitled to. So if the law says they're entitled to that, then they're gonna get that. She may be, and it seems she may be really unfair sometimes. She may be reasonable. I have a buddy who went through a divorce, no premium up. And his ex wife at first was like, yeah, let's do this all civil. And then her lawyer was like, no, no, you could get, yeah, you're entitled to this, you're entitled to that. And then it makes it seem like, well, I'm not doing anything wrong because that's what I'm entitled to. And then the guy has to move out and live in a little apartment. I know a lot of cops and they get asked all the time, have you ever had to shoot your gun? Sometimes the answer is yes. But there's a company dedicated to a future where the answer will always be no. Across the country, cops called this Taser the Revolution. But not everyone was convinced it was that simple. Cops believed everything that Taser told me. From Lava for Good and the team that brought you Bone Valley comes a story about what happened when a multi billion dollar company dedicated itself to to one visionary mission.

The American west with Dan Flores is the latest show from the Meat Eater Podcast Network. Hosted by me, writer and historian Dan Flores and brought to you by Velvet Buck, this podcast looks at a West available nowhere else.

I'll then be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian Dr. Randall Williams and best selling author and Meat Eater founder Stephen Rinella. I'll correct my kids now and then where they'll say when cave people were here. And I'll say, it seems like the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a real affinity for caves. So join me starting Tuesday, May 6, where we'll delve into stories of the west and come to understand how it helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today.

This guy sounds a lot like Musta Limes, by the way. Bust the Rhymes. No relation to Leanne Rhymes. I always wondered that. Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Steve Covino, Rich Davis. So many siblings in music in the 2000s. You had Jessica and Ashley Simpson. You had the Madden brothers, a Good Charlotte. You had. You had Hanson Bop. You had Nina sky, which were twin sisters. You had Evan and Jaron and you had Bustin Leanne Rhymes. Yeah, a lot of people don't know they actually are siblings. More jokes like that on pop2k on SiriusXM. Yeah, thanks. Hey, Spot, you listen. Thanks. Isn't a little video editing corner. You ready to do this or what? I'm gonna stay over here. Is that okay? Fair enough. Let's do it. Covino and Rich get you over the middle of the week with midweek major. Ooh, I love that. We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas. And it's like the kids say, that's so mid. We definitely Major. CNR scoring midweek Major. I gotta go really fast to give Spidey eight full minutes. Take as much time as you'd like. There's really not much going on today. You hear the horns. That means you have made it to the middle of the week. And before we hand things over to the number one and only host of the segment, we'd like to roll the two big red love dice over there in the main studio. Yeah, I can't lose. He rolled it too. I rolled it too. Now it's a rich roll. I hope you get a two, Driz. Well, seven. Seven craps. That means Rich gets first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Spotty Boy. All right, let's start off with the NBA All Star Game, which has had some lackluster reactions the last few years. Well, NBA commissioner Adam Silver looking to shake things up a bit. You mean Nosferatu? Nosferatu. Announcing that next season NBA All Star Game will feature team USA versus Team World. The NBA been trying to fix the All Star Game and its lack of competitiveness and hoping that some national pride may do the trick. So Silver actually attributes NHL's four nations face off that took place this year to making the decision, saying that it really generated some excitement, that hockey tournament. Yeah. So the All Star Game will also take place in the middle of the Winter Olympics next year. So it'll make some sense to go from the USA versus the world. Next season also kicks off the new broadcasting contracts with espn, NBC Prime. So maybe the new fresh approach overall. Is this midweek or major? Dude, this is major, bro. Definitely major. Maybe not that major. But the game is changing. I sound like the guy. Billy Madison. The world is changing. The last six MVPs of the NBA, all international players. You ever see that meme where it's like, where does the NBA MVP come from? The last, you guessed it, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 Seasons International. Whether it's Giannis or Jokic or Embiid or, you know, sga. I think this is really interesting. There might be some US pride by some of the homegrown kids to see what they could do against these international stars. You're going to see Luca and Giannis and like I said, the Joker, seeing if they could beat up on what used to be the dominant us. Right. I think this is cool. Stars. Stars. I agree with Rich. I think it's major. Major. But it feels mid. But it feels mid. Yes. Yes. I like that they're changing it up. Something needed to be done. What I don't like is that. But the hockey thing sort of inspired this, because it's not going to be as good as the hockey thing. It's not. Adam Silver went on to say, I must suck you out of blood. Spongebob said Nosferatu. All right, Spotty, what's next? I thought you guys were gonna keep making no Sferatu jokes. Feels mid. It does. I don't think we're quite ready for that. Well, I mean, but we're getting there. Everyone, you know, bitching and complaining about the current format. Isn't this just a step in a fun direction, the right direction. So that's why I said it is major. But it just feels mid. Something feels mid the. The usual format. Even when they had the team captains and they did all that, there wasn't really much pride on the line. This actually feels like there could be pride on the line. And I know you're big on pride in sports, so there you go. I hate the story, but I'm going to report it. Talk to. I think it was about a month or two ago, we talked about how Kobe and Gigi's mural in LA was vandalized and a GoFundMe was created, which was ultimately funded by Lakers newest member Luka Doncic. Well, the mural that was restored last week has been vandalized again. This is horrible. I don't know why they keep doing this. The mural, which is located at 14th and Main in downtown LA, was vandalized with, like white marking over the whole thing. And now the artist says he's looking. I know he's looking to move it to a new place to avoid more vandals. So it is going to make a yet another cut come back, but we just don't know where. Hopefully in much safer. Maybe a higher location. Who knows? Midweek or major. Can't they catch these losers? By the way, it's major. The word is it's a turf war right there where that's at. Because most of the sports murals in Los Angeles are left alone. Most people in LA could catch up their neighbor's dogs pooping on their lawn with their ring doorbell. We can't figure out who's Vandalizing a really big mural. That was Covino, by the way, on your lawn. Yeah, I've had enough room, Rich. Why'd you have to tell him? But I agree with Rich. This is major. It was a beautiful mural the first time. It's disrespectful in the major way. It's beyond disrespectful. It's infuriating. It pisses me off that people would do this. And Danny G's right. And there's a difference between. Well, first of all, it's a beautiful mural and it's not like someone's tagging it. They're just ruining it. They're just spray painting over this. Like, yeah, we don't like it. It. They're not doing art over it or tagging or anything. They're just ruining the mural. I hate it. Yeah, it stinks. Bad story. She's bad people. This is a little bit of a nice story. So we talked last week how Ellie Della Cruz, after the tragic death of his older sister the day before, still went on to play and ended up hitting a home run in her honor. Pointed to the sky, did like little heart, hands and everything. He wrote messages to her on his. On his feet and all of that stuff. Well, the home run ball, the guy who caught the ball at Brandon Daly actually is looking to return the ball back to Ellie De La Cruz. Obviously the ball holds a special meeting for Ellie and his family and he recognizes that, says he has the deepest sympathy for the sluggers family, has reached out to the organization looking to facilitate a transfer. It doesn't look like he's looking for anything. Like, you know, some people when they're returning balls are looking for like money or tickets or whatever. He just wants to do the job. And if he said if Ellie doesn't want it, he's happy to keep it as a special home run ball for himself. Midweek or major? Major. Definitely major. Major. Major. Definitely major. I'll tell you what. Definitely major because 99.9% of the time I would say F the athlete. Regular guy. Go get your money. Go. You've just been handed a lottery ticket. You catch a special home run ball. I. I would never trade a home run ball. Flight and Aaron Jones gonna give you a signed bet. Get out of here. Give me my millions. This is the rare case of an emotional home run after the death of a family member. He's doing the right thing. And I think the kind gesture will be that this guy's kind, sweet, genuine gesture will result in him being Hooked up, I bet. Anyway, so I think it's a beautiful story, and this guy is doing the right thing. He's doing the right things. Major once again. And it's perfect contrast from the previous story where. Where you had dirtbag people ruining a mural. It's nice to hear someone doing the right thing and giving the ball back. And again, there's no. There's no baseball value to the ball. There's emotional value, sentimental value. That matters here for only Ellie De La Cruz. So he should have it. He's doing the right thing. Well, another nice gesture in baseball and sports. Your boy Judge, usually a not a flashy guy, has been seen rocking a little gavel pendant. Have you noticed this, Kavina? I have, yeah. Yeah, a little blingy gavel pendant, apparently worth up to $20,000. He was asked about it, has been kind of hush on it, but said it was a gift. Well, it was revealed who the gift was from, and I guess, yeah, go. Go for it. Jazchism, I guess. Yeah. Judge Judy. No, it is a. It is a gift from fellow teammate and team captain Giancarlo Stanton. Yeah. The piece was created by AJ's Jewelry in Miami, where Stan and Jazz Chisholm Judy actually frequent. So Stanton apparently reached out to the jeweler and wanted to do something nice from his teammate. The gavels crusted in 12 carats of diamonds and amethyst, and also features some special personal details like judge's daughter's name, Nora, and her birthday, his wife Sam's name, their dog's name, as well as 2x to acknowledge the MVP awards. So a nice little gesture from his teammate midweek or major? That's. I think it's major. I think we already said it, right? I mean, just major on every way. And I'll tell you why. Because Aaron Judge, I. I'm not a Yankees fan, but he's such a great ambassador to the game. This is a cool thing. I. I really thought it was Jazz Chisholm because jazz got some style. So I thought he was the guy that did it. It's a good guess. I think it's major, too, because as an ambassador of the game, he's almost too humble for his own good. And it's cool that Giancarlo is trying to spice him up a little bit, give him some flair that he can't deny. And it was a nice gesture. And who doesn't like to see nice camaraderie and chemistry amongst the team? So I think that's cool. Here comes the judge. Aaron Judge on Judgment Day, it is time to hit it. Mike's words of wisdom. Let's get go. It's time for the guy that runs this place. 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. It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. If they act like they can live without you, let them do it. It. Oh, my goodness. That's an easy one. All you have to do is repeat it verbatim and you win a Swiggy. 87799 on Fox. The coveted Swiggy, the midnight black Swiggy that everybody wants, is up for grabs. If you could repeat that, that was simple. That was easy and informative. I like your words of wisdom better that you just told me off the air. Oh, well, that wasn't for on the air, though. Oh, Camino. Camino dropped some words and I was like, this is, this is deep stuff right here. Well, what if this confuses everybody else? I see. It's good confusion. Ok. A human fart can be louder than a trombone. I discovered that at my daughter's school concert. That's not the. No, that's not the words. Words of wisdom, though. All right. Well, those are just my words of wisdom. If you could repeat Big Mike's words of wisdom. Let's get someone on right now. We'll do this and we'll call it a day. We'll watch the Mets Dodgers tonight. We'll watch game one of the NHL Stanley cup finals and we'll just go about our business. All right. 87799 on Fox. Now while we go through the phone calls because we want to give you a prize before the day ends, I want to remind you a few things. Tomorrow Rich is going to be at the Mets Dodgers. I'll be here with everybody else. We'll be having fun. We'll be throwing it back. Old school win 50 hits. So we reminisce on a Thursday and we get you involved.

Again, at COVINO and Rich, June 20th in Vegas. And you. You know what, Mike, who runs this place? Who? Mike? His words of wisdom. I'm pretty sure he's going to stop by. Yeah, he said he's going to do live words of wisdom. All right. Someone buys him a Jack and Coke, he said. That's right. So let's give away a prize. Who do we got? Danny G. All right, let's start. In Virginia, it's Gerald. What's up, G? Hey, how are you guys? We're good. You ready to try to repeat Mike's words of wisdom? All right, Gerald, wait for the music.

And it's a race against the clock. So you came through. Clutch. That was a buzzer beater, bro. Yeah. Gerald, we're gonna mail out a C and R Swiggy to you in Virginia. Oh, great. I appreciate it. Thank you. Can you repeat it again? What is it, Danny? If they. If they act like they can live without you, let them do it. Let them do it. I like it. Oh, wow. Some relationship advice from Big Mike. Good one. Love that. Thank you, Mike. Listen, we will see you guys again tomorrow then. We got over. Promise and a lot of fun. But, you know, I'm waiting to hear one thing, and I'm sure it'll break. Maybe today or tomorrow. Anything. Is there any news yet on what the Knicks plan on doing next? No, not that I know of. Do you think there was a plan in place, Danny? G? Is your instinct that they have their eye on something? Relationships, Rich, you don't break up with one person usually unless you have someone else in mind. Yeah, you know, we call that. We call that in the women in the world of dating. Kavino used to call it the dod. Every girl has a dong on deck right off. Right off the bat, Rich. There was some noise about Michael Malone there. There is a reporter there locally who's saying that's probably not going to happen. But UConn's Dan Hurley. His name's been thrown around. Dan Hurley. Remember he passed up the Lakers job, but he's an east coast guy. I remember one of the main reasons why he didn't go to the Lakers was relocating his family all the way across the country. But UConn and the Knicks, that's a little car ride away, buddies. That's a quick little hopping hop in the car. Now Monsie, who's the update anchor, next, is saying, no, no way, Jose. No way. Aaron. Aaron Torres are. You know, House Insider has already tweeted that Dan Hurley has said, I am not pursuing any NBA coaching this off season. Take me off the so I trust Aaron Torres and he put it out. Nice. Yeah, yeah. This story was from Bleacher Report three hours ago. It's pretty. It's pretty messed up what they did to him. When you think about it though, no doubt we'll touch on that. Maybe more tomorrow. We'll see you then. Until then, enjoy the Stanley Cup Final. Arriva Darece, baby. See you in the promised land. Let's go Mets. See you tomorrow, guys.
