Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is, getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its place. I'm Akila Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people.

Yeah, the L.A. Luca's looking good, man. L.A. Luca's the two seed. Yeah. So we have lots to get to today. Every Monday, last one standing, some trivia. The game that's sweeping the nation, your chance to win some prizes, giving away some swiggies. We'll talk about your 49ers, Rich. Maybe some Travis Hunter.

But first and first mostly, I want to congratulate all the winners from the Oscars last night, even though shamma-lama-ding-dong didn't win. I feel as though the big winner. Conan O'Brien. I feel like everyone love Conan in a world where everyone loves to hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. I saw most people saying, yo, Conan's great. And I agree.

I think Conan O'Brien is a treasure. He is a treasure. Conan was great. As I mentioned before, Lamont Roach Jr. was great. against Tank Davis over the weekend. Some great fights, some great UFC, some good NBA. We have lots to get to. He's a huge underdog.

If you don't know the fight Kavino's talking about, we even called it sort of a tune-up fight here on Fox Sports Radio because that's what I guess most thought. I want to apologize. I didn't give that brother a chance, as Stephen A. Smith said. I thought he had no chance, and he came out. He fought a perfect fight. Bro.

I am here to say, I'm sorry. I watched it. It was blasphemous. I watched Saturday afternoon when I got back from my kids baseball and softball games. And I'm like, ooh, fight time. That's right. This dude, Roach Jr.? Oh, man, he fought the perfect fight.

Came out with a plan stuck to it. Much like Stephen A. Smith. Stephen A. Covino, Stephen Anthony Covino, me, I also thought he had no shot. But it's because he was coming up in weight and he's fighting Tank Davis, right? Now, Lamont Roach Jr. was a champion, is a champion at 130. he's fighting 135 superstar Tank Davis, one of the four kings, and dude

he owned him the whole fight, but the controversy was in the ninth round, Tank Davis took a knee. Automatic standing eight count, automatic knockdown. Then he goes to his corner to wipe the grease from his eye. That was the story. Because he got his hair did.

And again, that's automatic disqualification. Like you can't go to your corner and you can't call timeouts, okay? So if you want to take a knee, yeah, that's a knock. which means Lamont Roach Jr. technically should have won the fight because he arguably won the fight regardless of anything. They called it a draw. I'm okay with a draw, but really he won that fight. So some good controversial boxing, a good battle, but I have a suggestion. What if you use SoulGlow? Can you go to your corner? That was really, I don't know if that's

in the rulebooks. That was the problem. I'm not even joking. And by the way, great excuse to play Solglo. What's up coming to America? So by the way, this fight. that we're talking about, Roach versus Tank Davis. Kavino's right. Going into the fight, Tank Davis was a minus 1,600 favorite, meaning you have to wager 1600 buckaroos to win 100. So he was a monumental, huge favorite,

and it ends up being a majority tie. And Kavino's right. No one took a point away from Tank Davis when he sort of took a knee. In fact, two of the judges gave the round to Tank after he took a knee in that round. So technically those rounds instead of 10-9 should have been 9-9. And the reality, Kavino,

is his excuse after the fight was, I got soul glow in my eye. Not necessarily soul-glo, but he did say he got his hair done and the greases they use were getting his eyes. And Angel Reese says, yep, happens every time. She actually tweeted about it.

But I had it 1-15, 112, when I watched it again, seven rounds to five, Roach in Faye. I did think he won, but I was okay with the draw, right? You got to, well, as the great Rick Flair said, to be the champ, you got to beat the champ. Who should it? He said to be the man. Oh, to be the, well, you know what I'm getting that.

Yeah. But to be the champ, you got to beat the champ. I think he arguably beat the champ. But draw is okay. The controversy I wasn't cool with. You can't just call timeouts and boxing. You ever get soul glow in your eye? No, but I have a suggestion, Rich.

A suggestion. I haven't used Soglo in a long time. I use Suavecito now. I have a funny story, by the way. Okay. But my suggestion is this. We talked about this briefly. Back in the 80s, they had what they called the Four Kings.

And it was the golden era of boxing when you had Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Tommy Hearns, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran. Leonard probably getting the best of all of them, but they were all great. Now we got four kings in today's world, and three of them are fighting. May 2nd in that stacked Turkey Alashique card. You got Ryan Garcia fighting Raleigh-Ramero, Devin Hades, Tiafima Lopez, and

Barbosa. You got to get Tank Davis on that card and let him run it back with Lamont Roach. Who do you call the Four Kings? Garcia, Haney, Lopez, and Tank. Oh, my four kings were King Haku, King, Harley Race, the Macho King, and King Jerry Lawler.

I thought those were the four kings. Those are some great ones for sure. Yeah, different. Hey, we're going to talk some John Cena, so stick to wrestling in a minute. Well, I'm the king. But that would be the great solution here. If you got three of the four kings fighting May 2nd in a ridiculous card, get Tank Davis. They got enough money to make that happen. Get them on there.

Let them run it back because Lamont Roach Jr. deserves it. So you had some great boxing. You had some good UFC. It was a nice weekend. I hope you enjoyed it. I said I had a quick, funny story. It has to do with your Bobo brother-in-law. Who I love.

Geez, which one? pick one I got three of them. Your sister, Grace's husband, Chris. Danny G., we went to. By the way, I say that respectfully because Dan listens all the time. All your brother-in-law's... What up, brother-in-law, Dan? All your brother-in-laws might have had their ears perk up when I said Bozo, brother-in-law.

Your sister-grace's husband, Chris, one of the nicest dudes ever. Danny, you probably met him. He's been to my house with his kids. Yeah, that's right. He talks real slow. It's like, get to the point! He's like to sloth at the DMV in that Zootopia movie. Oh, so...

I'm at a busy day today. You're like, oh, man. I'm going to go get a drink. He does HVAC work. He helped me put in my nest thermostat, and he's like, well, what you need to do? I'm like, can you just do it back? Yeah, he talks a lot. Well, if you take this wire.

My buddy, I'm just putting. Dad must kill Rich. Rich wants a whole story in 25 seconds. Yeah, keep it snappy, man. We live in an Instagram TikTok world, unfortunately. Yeah, don't pull in Adrian Brody and talk for seven minutes. I'm stuck in slow motion. So what you do is you take off your old thermos.

that. Adrian Brody gives speeches in Uber minutes. He's like, yeah, I'll be real quick. I'll keep it short. Seven minutes later. That's how my brother-in-law is. His bozo brother-in-law Chris, speaking of soul glow, getting in your eyes. We all went to a bar to meet up. One of our friends was in a band

and they were doing a show, so we're all supporting. And Kavino's brother-in-law shows up. His face and far-head of red, his eyes looked like he has pink eye. Tomato head. I was like, what is going on, dude? Honestly, I was like, Don't touch me, dude. You got pink eye in both eyes.

His forehead, Kavino's right. He looked like a damn tomato. You know in a cartoon when, like, Bluto, squeezing Popeye real hard and he turns into a beat? His head was red as to be. Yes. So, we're like, Chris, what's up, man? What's doing?

Well, Don't touch! I was half-house paying attention, and I was putting hair product in. But I, instead of grabbing my hair, product, he put icy hot in his head. Yeah.

He had icy hot in his head and it, you know, got into his eyes. It's like, why is my head burning? His scalp was beat red. Like, you could see, you know, his scalp through his hair, it was great red. And the whole day, and every, he was sweating. So it was dripping in his face and we're there.

Like, you're all right, dude? I don't know, man. I made a mistake. So if anyone can relate to Tank Davis's weekend, ask your brother-in-law, Chris, who one time put icy hot instead of hair product. That's like something from a movie. I was ridiculous.

I would actually do that. Yeah, my brother-in-law did that. And you know what? He found his match, my sister, because she once tried to get hair dye off her arm using a magic eraser and burnt all her skin off. True story. True story. My same couple, my sister, got hair dye and tried to remove it with.

Hopefully two wrongs make a right. They don't play off each other. And their kids are men's up. Oh, no. Their kids are Lani Pafos. The genii. So anyway, that's not how a pound for pound great conducts himself. I like Tank Davis, but that was just straight embarrassing.

You know, don't be getting grease in your eye. Don't be calling timeouts. Know the rules. He's like, I didn't know. You didn't know? The casual fan knows if you take a knee. That's the standing eight. Give me a break.

So based on what Camino is saying, if you're connecting all the dots, had the judges acknowledge that as a knockdown and Roach wins. Instead of a majority draw, then he goes up, then Roach goes up and wait and he wins and new. But he didn't get that. So again, boxing ending in controversy, you don't say. But it still was a great, great battle and we reaped all the benefits. So you have an exciting couple months coming up. You're like an old white guy from the 20s, baseball and boxing.

I love it, man. Yeah. Yeah, see. But that being said, another big story was John Sina. And we'll talk about that in a minute. But the big story today, Rich, is that, speaking of old guys, a guy that probably loves baseball, boxing, and football, Jimmy Johnson retires after 31 years.

Stellar career with Fox, 31 years calling it quits. So something he's never going to do again. You know what else happened this weekend, early in the weekend? Steph Curry had a sweet slam dunk. If you missed it, take a listen. Yabu Silly had stolen by heel to Curry, who, never came back and he dumped it with the right hand. 109, 104.

Now, we don't often see that. And after the game, he declared it's the last one. Did he say, I do declare? He said, I do declare. That is my last dunk. His last dunkeroo, Rich, your favorite snack growing up. His last dunkeroo of his career. So with Jimmy Johnson retiring and with Steph declaring, it's the last one, we open it up

to the Fox Sports Radio. nation, we chop it up, Kavino and Rich Style. We ask you, what's something you think you'll never do again? You'll never do again because it's a weird thought because in life, there are moments where you feel like Drew Brees when you're looking back and you're trying to take it on. You feel in your heart of hearts like Aaron Rogers when he was leaving Green Bay. I don't think I'll ever do this again. Let me get this mental snapshot in.

Let me try to remember this. And then we end up forgetting anyway. Yeah, right? So something you'll never do again. And then, you know, do your best to try to remember those moments. Because it could be the last time you hold your kid. It could be the last time you give him a bubble bath. What's that famous meme that floated around for years,

which was you rode around on your bikes with your neighborhood buddies for the last time, but you didn't realize it. And no one ever knew. You know, it was the last time you ran outside to play wiffle ball with your street friends, your childhood friends, and no one ever knew it. So what is something you, think you'll never do again. By the way, that's an emotional thought for the parents out there.

Like, there will be a last time you hold your kid before they're like, all right, I'm like, you know, too old now. You can't be holding me. But there'll be a last time, Danny where you pick up a little COA. He's already a beast, but there'll be a time where it's like- Coa picks up Danny. What are you talking about that? Like, bam-bam.

Bro, he's on the last couple months, hopefully, of nursing. And it looks like Brenda is holding a seven-year-old right now. He's so big. He stood up the other day while he was nursing. I'm not surprised. He's a big boy. How old's COA? He's 17.

Yeah, 17 months. But he looks, it could pass for years. But no, so what are those things that you have done for the last time? And I always thought it was sort of cool how Steph opted for the smooth layoff instead of the slam. But you know what? I liked that he won last time. Slam dunk. He didn't do it with a whole lot of authority.

I think he could have put a little more oomph into it. But, hey, it was a cool moment. I think that's one of the reasons he's never going to be. going to do it again. You know, I thought the same thing, too. It's like, you would think it's easy for him, but sometimes not as easy as you think. You ever hear Shaq tell those stories? When he was in high school or college, I forget, but he was 6-11 or something like that and couldn't dunk. You know, it's not as easy as some people think. Either you got the ups or you don't. People are like, you couldn't dunk. You're six foot 11. So based on the Jimmy Johnson,

done doing broadcasting, Steph Curry said, that's it. You're never going to see another slam dunk from this guy. What are things that you know deep den inside? Man, I'll never do that again in this lifetime. Can I say you could never say never? I know Justin Bieber said that. But let me say that too because we've talked to the great Jim Lampley, speaking of boxing and things you'll never do again. Jim Lampley, you guys remember him as the blow-by-blow guy on HBO or all the stuff he did with the wide world of sports and ABC and everything else. Golf. we've talked to him several times in the past year.

And it seemed like he'd never do blow by blow again. But that fight card I just mentioned, May 2nd with the Kings, he's calling the blow by blow for ring. And it's his return to the ring. And I'm sure he thought he'd never do it again. Well, I mean, I know boxing and wrestling, you know, entertainment versus reality. Jesse the body Ventura, remember he returned? That's what I'm saying.

So you never know. Like, hey, what if some dude through some crazy money at Jimmy Johnson? You know, what if someone threw some crazy money at Steph Curry? Like, Steph, you got to do it. You know, I know you can't, but you never know. Like, what if he has a straight up breakway? And he's like, ah, just instincts take over. One last time.

Rich will never be the young dude on the staff at a radio station hosting nights. Yeah. Ever again. The idea of being like the young knight guy. Yeah, like the newest full-timer to the squad. Dude, unless my wife leaves me never grabbing random booty again. Yeah. Or like the bar remotes that we used to do back in the day

and then, you know, you would hook up or get a phone number from a random. But you know what, Danny? Never say never. And Kivino makes a point there because we went to Super Bowl after Super Bowl after Super Bowl at Sirius X-M. When we parted ways there and, you know, ended up doing other stuff, I never thought we'd be doing Radio Row again and all these things. Hey, here we are. Here we are. We're back at it.

But you don't ever want to predict a divorce, Rich. So with that, it's like if you're married, you don't ever want to have to get married again. No. Just ask him. Exactly. Seriously. I got one that's sort of like sad, but sad in a funny way. My dad is a pretty adventurous guy in his 70s.

He was on a vacation a couple years ago. And I can make fun of him a little bit because he's actually on vacation now, so I know he's not listening. Was that your dad at the Academy Awards last night? Oh, no, I was Mick Jagger. I'm sorry. My dad looks a little like Jack. Mick was looking swift on his feet. He was going to live to be 100, man.

That guy's light on his feet. Dude, he was so personal. He's 81 years old. You know, he looked fantastic at the academy. I almost start doing drugs. But the joke is Riches' dad looks like Mick Jagger a little. And also my dad's a guy that's in his early 70s that thinks he could still play tennis, volleyball on the beach, do this, do that. It's very active guy.

And I admire that. I admire that a lot about my dad. But he hit me up a little while back. And he's like, oh, a lot. little embarrassing, but I gotta tell you, I think I'm done snorkeling. I'm like, what do you mean? You're done snorkeling? Oh, thanks for that update, Dan. He was in the-snorkeling.

He was in like the Dominican Republic or the Bahamas or something with his wife, and he said he popped up out of the water, felt a little disoriented, and the guy had to, like, jump in and sort of help him a little bit. And he had a bit of a panic moment. And he was all embarrassed, and he's like, I guess that's the indicator. I'm in my 70s. But you know what, dude? I guess I'm done snorkeling.

That happens to everybody. You pop out out of the ocean and like the whole group looks so far away. And then you look down and it's like a dark ocean and you're like, ah, that panic sets in. He's not alone there. He is not alone. That's an empty feeling. I love how the fish gave him a standing O as he was being helped out. Like this was it.

Oh, yeah, this is it. There's great. The starfish stood at attention. It was great. One last one, Greg. Sponged. He was there and saluted him. Do!

Way to go, Greg. What a moment. So, you know who? Maybe you're just feeling the bends. You know the bends? You don't want that. You got to keep breathing as you come up. Baby's got the bends.

You don't want those bends. Yeah, man. It's a scary feeling when you pop up out of the ocean. You don't see anybody. Like, where'd everybody go? Oh, let me ask you this. You realize that you're in the ocean. It's the worst.

I guarantee, you know, if you talk about people our parents age, when I say that, meaning respectfully, you know, 60s or 70s, there's come a time where you're like, yo, it's not worth it to go skiing anymore because all it takes is one little fall. And you're like, I don't need to be breaking bones at 60, 70 years old.

I did that 10 years ago. Haven't been skiing since. So you have called the quits on skiing at 30 something? No. So this happened in late January of 2015. I just haven't skied since, but it was like I wasn't planning on it for a while, like at least five years. Now it's been 10 years.

Yeah, but there has to be a point where it is the last time. So things you think you'll never do again. But the reminder here is to do your. best easier something done but do your best to take that mental snapshot so that you can remember these things because we're so quick to forget and again this is all based on curry declaring his last dunk and jimmy johnson calling it a career in the booth we got more kvinan on rich and your feedback i love it light them up phones are hot we'll get to your calls and social media feedback next right here kevin on rich on monday we're into march already can you believe that

We're starting a trend. but this one's extra special. So how do we actually come up with a name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. We were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band

before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad

The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis. And I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast,

I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay. Jen Chinchin win. I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lernerabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now. And I actually can win on any surface.

Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat to the French Open.

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque.

Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

because we didn't really give it justice here. So let's go ahead and put this over. Here's what you were supposed to listen to coming back. Your daily couple nonsense. What does that mean? Your afternoon pick me up. Back to Covino and Rich. Oh, back to the show.

That's fantastic. All right. If only that I just, you know. That really screwed with me. Welcome back, everybody. Take two and action. Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Thanks again to Ricky for the new production.

I will expect that next time. Now, based on Jimmy Johnson retiring, based on Steph Curry declaring his last dunk. We're posing this question before we get into the last one, before we talk John Sina and more. What's something you're pretty certain you'll never do again? And the reminder is you never say never, but always take that mental snapshot just in case.

The first thing that comes to is a perverted thought, to be honest. It really is. And it's that Joey Diaz thought. Did you ever see that clip of Joey Diaz on the Rogan show? I sent it to you. It's one of my favorite things. He's looking like he's, he's looking like he's Vinnie Pestor. And he's like, you know, Joe?

you ever see a girl with oiled up legs looking all beautiful you ever think to yourself oh she's with a 26 year old like guy and and that you'll never get a 25 year old girl the rest you know he i'm cleaning it up for you but the thought that you'll never be with a young woman again in that way as a young man you'll never do that again especially if you're like an older guy in a committed relationship speak for yourself non bill bellichicks yeah i was going to say unless you bill would have never thought that unless you're bill belichick which is why you never say never, say never, but Joey Diaz in that clip, it's really funny. He describes sort of what Kavino said, which is when you're in your 20s and you know you're just going to be, you know, let's

be honest, later on, I'll make it all day with this person. Oh, you're like a young and you're full of energy and you're, and that's, yeah, for many people, that'll never happen again. Those days are over. I wrote that a few. Do you want to go around the route real quick? I'm curious, will you ever do these things again? And I'm not making it sound like we're old guys, by any means, but there's certain things where unless you're in your 20s, it might be like, yeah, I'm not doing that. Like, would anyone in this room? You might, do some of this stuff or relive some of the stuff with your kids. But you might be done.

Let me ask you. I'm going to list off a couple things. You tell me, will you ever do this again? Because I think post-20-something, a lot of these things like, nah, I've been there, done that. All right. Kavino, you're a rock guy. But will you ever attend a concert in a mosh pit again?

Again, I've done it with my kid as a result. But me personally, I think those days are done for me. Can't do it. Can't do it. You might end up in one, though. You never know. My thought is if I'm going to see a concert, I want a nice VIP seating area or like,

I want the front row so no one's even in front of me. Like I'll be in the second level, but front row. I believe David Drayman tells a story like that or something like that. He was body surfing or was in a mosh pit, fell on his head and that was it. Never been in one ever again. All right. Here's one.

As we all get older and you're no longer a 21, 22-year-old kid. Are you in the business? of going away with your pals and like overly sharing rooms. I feel like girls still do that on like a bachelor at weekend, but are you sharing a hotel room with a bunch of other dudes? You're right. These are things that I'm on the cusp of agreeing with you, but I could see happening by accident maybe.

You know, I can't say I want to share a room, but is it impossible that I'll never do it again? I don't know. I told the buddy a couple of years ago, we were just going to a game and I go, what do you want to do? You want to share a room? And he angrily was like,

We're grown men. I'm not sharing a room with you. I've said it about five times in the last six years. Like, we're grownups here. We don't need to. We're adults. Come on. How often do you go away?

I get it sometimes. Like, hey, we're going away with the guys weekend. Unless it's an Airbnb and you rent a beautiful house, which we've done, everyone gets their own room in the house. But unless you're on a strict budget, I don't know if we're sharing home, sharing hotel rooms anymore. People are burping and farting and, you know, weirdos and you know. Unless it's by accident, I do agree with you.

All right. are you at this stage of life ever bouncing on a trampoline again like at sky zone or something dude i did it because my girlfriend like begged me to do it with her little brother sure so i did it not that long ago i did it recently and i thought my knees were going to go on to yeah i said i'm a trampoline i bounced high on a trampoline and then as i was coming down i'm like oh my god my knees are going to go out so again i can't say no i can't say never i really can't say never they're all great like great situations great examples but i i can't say really like any of them are impossible all right rich talking about knees there with the the trampoline there's a nice palperalta

skateboard in my garage got the independent trucks the nice wheels got it like in my early 20s because when we were little kids we bmxed we skateboarded we allied up the curbs and all that we're never going to skateboard at this age ever. I mean, Tony Hawk still does it. Respect. He built the career. I'm with you on that. Tony Hawk.

Not doing that. I got on a long board, like a few years ago. I had in skateboard since I was a teenager. And I couldn't even balance on it. Because you have to have decent core strength to ride a skateboard. Yeah. And I was like, whoa. Like, I used to skateboard a lot as a kid.

I was with my nieces. I was with my nieces and nephews. I might be done with this. But when was the last time? you did some type of trick off a diving board. Like my niece is never like, hey Uncle Rich, can you flip off a diving board?

I'm like, of course I can flip. I think my triple Lindy days are behind me. Screw you, melon. Yo, I got up on this on like the high dive and I was like, of course I could flip.

I flipped and landed right on my back. And I'm like, God, I think I might be done. I might be done. I'm with you on that one. I'm with Rich on that one for sure. So now we open it up to you, Fox Sports Radio Nation.

Things that, it's safe to say, you'll probably, Probably, most likely, never do again based on Jimmy Johnson and Curry. Like we said, never see never because Lampley is back in the booth. Jim Lampley's back, he announced for May 2nd. One more for you. Because I know we all like to go on vacations, you know, vacations change as you get older.

And again, not making us like we're old timers. We're 30, 40 something years old. Are you being adventurous and going far out into the ocean the way you did when you were younger? Hell no. Like, you know when you're like, you can't touch your ground? You're like, I'm going to ride waves and I'm going to venture out. I'm like, nope, nope. Where the coral reef is.

Yeah, no thanks. Second, I feel seaweed against my leg. I'm like, I'm out. I don't want to be Iowa sammed here, so I want to get my one in. Staying up. Staying up until 4 a.m. voluntarily. Oh, yeah. Like, even on New Year's Eve, can't make it to midnight most of the time.

No, absolutely. I can barely stay up until 10. Yeah, for no reason whatsoever. But you think you're retired from it? Like never again. Never again. Never again. Never again.

Dan Byer, I agree with you, but at the same time, Sunday is like the only day where I don't have to wake up early for either work or like kids sports and some of that. So Saturday night, if I'm in the zone like watching a show, I'll keep going until I fall. Yeah, four is tough. But I think we did four like you're watching and playing video games. You're right. Maybe I'm pushing two o'clock and that's crazy. Two o'clock is two, three, four. War is the next level.

Because then you got to sleep till like 11 or 12 just to get your seven or eight hours in. Yeah, true. The day's already gone. Yeah, our last listener event, we went to like 1240 a.m. And I was like, man, we're out past midnight. All right. All right. All right.

Let's go to J.K. in Vegas. What's up, JK? You're on with Kvino and Rich. How you doing, fellas? Hey, buddy. I'm glad I had a minute to, you know, gather my thoughts here. I couldn't get it out to day, boy. It was the last time I saw my grandma.

The mental picture heard her window waving goodbye. Dude, that is such a... That's a tough one. That's such a great memory, though. It's my heart. It's like such a grandma thing. Because every grandma, like, you don't see them that often, right? So they'd wave on their porch.

They say goodbye until you drove away. I think all grandmas did that. My grandma always did that. My nana did that. My grandma's always... And now I see my mom doing that, which is the saddest thing, right? It's the circle of life. Now when I leave, it's like, bye, mom.

And she's there waving outside the door. Yeah, man. It's sad. You ever see the meme, obviously, that says, my childhood punishments are now my adult goals, going to bed early, not going to a party, not leaving the house. My childhood punishments are now my adult goals.

Being alone in your room. Steve in San Antonio, you're on with Kavino-Ritch. Hey, Steve. Hey, great show, guys. I love it. Thanks, man. Shout out to Dan Beyer and the Airbnb show. I love that one, too.

Nice. Great show. got a cool question. Yes. Quick question for everybody in the crew there. A listeners need to know if everyone there at Fox Sports's bang. Okay. Oh, boy, drop dump button.

By the way. As long as we didn't get the first half dumped. I don't get that. He loved you and then said something inappropriate. Yeah. And I was like, well, exigate because he started as if it was a legit call. So Sam's quick on the button. Did you see him, he hit the button on Kieran Culkin last night, too.

I don't know if you saw it. No, that was Iowa Sam. I was like, Kieran, I wanted to hear what you had to say. Why'd you have to curse like that? That was, I was Sam on the button. Only if he was good with all the buttons. Yeah, I know. James.

The buttons, bitch, are you? Like, for a lot of people, might be something as simple as organized sports. You might not ever play organized sports. You think you're done with that? I don't know. I said for a lot of people. I don't know me personally. I don't know.

Yeah, but I mean, I actively play softball and you, like, mock it, and you have no. interest in joining anything. So does that mean what's someone you're going to pick something up? I think you're done. I might join a bowling league someday. I might pick something else up, a new hobby. Who knows what pickleball has in store

for this guy? I don't know. Maybe you're a pickleball star waiting to happen. James and Nashville wrapped us up. What's up, bud? I saw you guys here. The graduate in Nashville good time. You too, Dave. Thanks for having, yeah. Yeah, so I mean, to keep on the basketball train,

you know, touching rim, I'm 32. and I haven't tried touching rim in a year or two, but I don't even know if I can anymore, but I knew that day was coming, coming sooner. Are we talking about your weekend or are we talking about on the court? What do you talking about touching rim all weekend? Oh, yeah, those days are. Those days are basketball.

Yeah, James, you got to remember who you're speaking to there. Basketball. You know what, James on that note? I mean, come on, you can't say that and expect nothing. Sorry. Get at it. But we had to dump the other caller, though. That's not right.

I know. I mean, geez. Hey, you know, you'll probably never. You guys are buddies with somebody at the FCC? You probably never like a crank call people like you used to. We would say prank. Your parents would say crank. Yeah.

You would probably not prank call someone like you used to as a kid. You know, I used to speaking of bowling. It was called crankyankers, not prank yankers. I know, but we didn't say crank. Our parents. I used to call the bowling alley as a little kid. And I would do the old, uh, hey, hello, Mifter. And they're like, oh, yeah, you're an Hampstead bowl.

Do you guys have 10-pound balls? Of course we do. You did the Bart Simpson. Then I go, how do you walk? See more butts? We used to call 1-800 Miracle Air and pretend like we couldn't hear the operator. Hello. Dude, seriously, those days are done.

All right. Well, hey, let's go to Dam By Air for an update. DB. What's going on, man? Guys, the Cincinnati Bengals have a bit of deja vu all over again, placing the franchise tag on wide receiver T. Higgins for the second straight year. Wow. He could play next year for $26.2 million if he signs the tag and the sides don't agree on a long-term deal.

The Athletic says Jetswater receiver Garrett Wilson would be willing to discuss a long-term deal with the team, despite being unhappy at the end of this previous season. Two-time Super Bowl winning head coach and All-of-famer Jimmy Johnson announced he's retiring from Fox after spending 31 years with the network. Super Bowl champion Eagles are releasing corner Darius Slay, saving them $4.3 million against the salary cap. Packers, resigned linebacker Isaiah McDuffie to a two-year deal. Note from the NBA is the Dallas Mavericks have informed season ticket holders that the average price, for next season will increase by more than 8% because of investments made to the team for the team. Auburn remains unanimous number one in the AP top 25 men's college hoops bowl. Duke is second St. John's up to six.

Texas number one in the women's rankings with USC at number two and Yukon 3rd. And Panthers forward, Matthew Kachuk's going to miss the rest of the regular season as the Florida star suffered a groin injury in the Ford Nation's face off. Guys, back to you. Thank you, D.B. Now we'll get to the rest of your feedback and phone calls next. Robert Silva hit us up, Rich. I'll give you one more to think about. He goes, I'll never roller skate again, bros.

Not even if it's my kiddo's birthday party. My old bones will break and I'm scared to bust my ass. I'm 44. I'll never do that again. Money will change things, but it is tough to get out there. Yeah, no doubt. Hey, if we forgot anything, you want to chime in. Let's have some fun.

We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. We're starting a trend. But this one's extra special. So how did we actually come up with a name, Hey Jonas, guys?

I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas.

And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy,

I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast,

I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on Clay. Jenchen win. I mean, she went down in three to Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rabakina is arguably the best player in the world right now, and I actually can win on any surface.

Because if she's serving, well, good luck. Consider this your court side seat. to the French Open.

Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year.

And we're wrapping up things you'll never do again. I think it's more of like, you think you'll never do them again. You think Mike Tyson thought he'd get back in the ring ever again. Here I am. I can't believe I'm doing this again. Well, I don't even know why I did it. I know why, Mike, because they gave you $30-something, $40 million.

That's why. Steph Curry said that'll be the last dunk you ever see from a guy that really doesn't dunk at all anyway. really. So if he was like, it's my last three-pointer, that's a story. Stuff doesn't really dunk. So also Jimmy Johnson's stepping away. And when you do the math, Jimmy Johnson went straight from winning Super Bowls to go into the booth. Because 31 years in the booth, that's crazy. Barry Switzer, if you remember, Switzer took over for the Cowboys. And that's when Jimmy Johnson was like,

yeah, I'm going to do the broadcasting thing. So he's been there since we were, a lot of us were in grade school. Well, a lot of these are because you physically can't anymore. but some of these are you're just talking a big game. How many people said, I'm never watching football again? You're like, never. Man, I'm never watching one more NFL game. We didn't believe those people when they were saying it.

That's what I'm saying. A lot of it's hot air. A lot of it you just don't know. You never know. So again, congrats to Jimmy Johnson and Steph Curry with his last dunk. Really quick. One last dunk.

Shea in Kansas City. He couldn't stay on hold because he's at work, but he wanted to share. He said the last time. his parents kissed him good night. He said his dad started shaking his hand. And as a parent, that is something. We were talking about, you know, holding your kid.

But, you know, at what age do you start just saying goodnight to him? And, you know, there's no more tucking him in. And whereas Rich does, Rich, you kick Ben out of his bed or vice versa, right? Dude, can I tell you? Every morning when I drop the kids off at their school, I do a little, you know, a little funny handshake with them. And I get my daughter and son a little peck on a little peck on the little. left so have a good day at school.

It's only a matter of time before my daughter's like, all right, dad, no more, you know, our son's like no more kisses. They become so embarrassed. Even if you're cool, they're like, all right, dad, can you lower your lame music? And no, I'm not blowing you a kiss. And you'll never, like, hold their hand in public again. That's just how life goes. So ever, never, ever, ever, I don't know.

But congrats to Jimmy Johnson. Now, something else that happened over the weekend, Rich. Would you partake in a tackle football game? See, that? That's what I mean. I say no, I think no, but you never. Rich and I just did a whole, like, NFL combine for something on the side. I never thought I'd do something like that.

You know, again, you know what? Money talks. You know who hit us up with a really good one? Our pal Mauser in Cincinnati. So what about, like, adult drinking games and just like... I was thinking I'll never do, like, a half hour, hour of power again. That's just dangerous. You're not doing like the power hour, or even like, you saw them doing on Love is Blind

where they all do, like, shots off a year. yardstick or some crap like are you ever going to drink in that way and I said to Kavino well what if your kids in college and on parents weekend they're like come on dad you might be like all right I might do like five to ten shots of beer but I'm not going to do the full 60 60 30 or 60 whatever you know yeah but I was Sam I'll join in and have a little fun but like if you were that kid in college that did like the lewd shot of alcohol or you were drinking like ever clear you're you know funnels where they don't belong yeah Whoa.

You'll never stop. I've never started. We're talking about touching rim again? Yeah. Hey, so anyway, think about it. You can chime in at Colvino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. Throw your answers there.

We appreciate it. Now, the other story besides the Oscars, besides Curry's Dunk, besides the Lakers on a streak, besides the Tank Davis controversy in the world of fighting, is John Sina. Everybody talking about John Sina. It was a big story. he's gone heel. Yeah, you don't need to be a wrestling fan to realize it was a big weekend for the WWE, gearing up for a WrestleMania, and if your kids watch or you watch,

it really was a big story. John Cena, I believe, and I feel pretty confident saying, isn't he the league leader in Make a Wish? Yeah, he's one of those guys for sure. He's a guy that has been... He also speaks Mandarin. I don't know if you've ever seen it, but it's wild. John Cena is one of those guys that has done so much good,

but part of that is tied to the fact that he's been a, as I said, the baby face. He's been the good guy for decades. You can't see me. John Cena always been the good guy. And over the weekend, they're saying the biggest heel turn since Hollywood Hogan, brother. So start thinking about the best bad guys in sports history. All right. And we'll take your phone calls next.

All right. More. Kavina on Rich. Hang tight. Hey, guys. It's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe.

I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own. podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it.

We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it, but, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen.

Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is, getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its place. I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 is about both of those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city, in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people.
