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.

So while we get the phones going, Rich, I want to give you some fight rumors. Right. We talked baseball. We took little football. You know I'm a big fight fan. There's some good fights this weekend. I'll tell you about in weekend hobnobbing.

There's a few rumors. I want to throw them out there. And you just tell me which one excites you the most, okay? By the way, did you tell Danny Chie to send your mom a new Swiggy? Danny, did you hear the story of Kavino's mom and the Swiggy? No. Someone heard that her last name was Kavino. Right.

In the neighborhood. In the Jersey. And it was like, wait a minute. You're Steve Kavino's mother? I'm a huge fan. My mom was, like, being weird and like sitting on the front porch, like taking in the sun or something. And a guy was like, are you Steve Camino's mom? She went in the house and she's like, the least I could do is give you his swiggy.

Swear to God, she gave way her swiggy. Wow. Yeah, yeah. Well, she's always promoting too. So cool, weird guy in Union, New Jersey. Shout out to you. Yeah. Cove, I'll add your mom onto the next mailing list.

Nice. Nice. I appreciate it. But they're real nice. So if you want to play and you want to win, 87799 on Fox. Now, here are the rumors as of today. As you know, last weekend, it was the weekend before, recently. Bivel beat Bettebibyev, right?

175, undisputed now. Okay. According to today, rumors, because you never know what this stuff, right? WBC is ordering Bivel to fight the Mexican monster Benavides. So that's one rumor. Okay, that seems to be legit, but again, you never know what this stuff. Bivel, Benavides. Now, for people that don't know, I hear Bivel, I hear Bavl, but he's the guy that, if I'm right, didn't he beat Canelo Alvarez?

He did at 175. So he's the guy. He's got all the belts. And now they're saying, WBC is saying, you got to fight David Benavides. Okay. So Bivel, Benavis.

Yeah. Bel Bivel, del, bel, bel, bill. Yeah. Bell Biv better BF. Yeah. So that's a mouthful. Play the rim shot on yourself. Thank you.

Now, this is also legit. Again, according to you never know in the world of boxing. There is going to be an unbelievable card in the works May 2nd Times Square reported by Ring Magazine

it's like all the big stars of the junior welterweight division the 140 pounders are fighting on one card dude so you got Ryan Garcia who's back I was gonna say he was suspended right versus Roli Romero so two

trash talkers with a lot of pop fight in each other Garcia shouldn't beat him but Roli's good though well Tank Davis said that Roli was the hardest he ever has been hit. Okay. So Garcia Roley. He just has a glass chin. This is all the same card, mind you. Okay. So Garcia Romero,

Devin Haney versus Jose Ramirez as a former champion, Vato Loco Forever. Jose was on our ESPN show, real nice dude. Tiafimo Lopez and Barbosa. All on the same car, dude. Tiafimo, Haynie. Those are, those are three,

I wouldn't say top, top tier fights, but those are three top tier fights. I'm on the same card. Yes. And then if you're a boxing fan, and I know, because Kavino, I always hear him talk about it,

Tiofimo, Barbosa, Ramirez, Ralee, Garcia, these are all big names in that division. Again, May 2nd, New York City, all on the same card. And then this week, I don't know if you missed it,

but Floyd Money Mayweather was on Jimmy Fallon, and he was asked, like, what about Jake Paul? And he's like, easy work. He's like, easy work. Kid of me? At 48, I'll whip his ass.

That's easy work. I'll beat his ass. Jake Paul is now like, I'll knock him out. Do you kidding me? Look how much bigger I am than Mayweather. I'm like twice as size. And now this is building up slowly, but surely it's a spectacle. It's stupid, but it's building, I'll say that.

So of all those awesome fights and the stupid spectacle that's being hyped, which one excites you the most? My answer is going to make you want to throw open your mouth if you Mayweather and Jake Paul. Oh, listen, because Mayweather, he's 48. He's 48. You just turned 48. Undefeated. That's 10 years younger than Tyson who couldn't get the job done.

But he's also a lot smaller, dude. A lot smaller. But he's had some pretty decent looking exhibitions here and there. Yeah, he's in a shape. Mayweather way smaller versus Jake Paul. That to me. The intrigue, right? Because of the big size difference, Jake Paul significantly bigger.

The ultimate skill and defense of a, and again, remember, Mayweather fought Logan Paul, so it's not out of the question. It's Paul versus small. Yeah, let me tell you Mayweather, I would say this, I don't think he could hurt Jake Paul. Well, again, those are the rumors. Some of them are legit, some are, you know, you just never know things fall through all the time.

But as a fight fan, those excite me. Maybe Jake Paul, maybe Floyd Mayweather outboxes him and just makes him look like, all right, you're just not there because Mayweather's got that defense and the skill. Maybe he'll outland punches. but the only part of that fight that seems boring to me is like a lot of Mayweather fights, I don't think Mayweather packs a punch that could hurt a guy as big as Jake Paul.

Jake Paul, I would say him, Jake Paul's big. He's our side. He's a six-foot guy. Mayweather's a small dude. All right. Well, your thoughts at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. And there's some great fights this weekend that I'll tell you about in weekend hobnobbing. I watch all of them.

Yeah. But I think most would just catch. I mean, Weather, Jake Paul. I hate to say it. I know, right? People want the spectacle, but there's some good stuff in the works. So now it's time to play the game. Sports media and athletes are quoted a lot.

Stars. Attract other stars. Here comes the hot take quotes. Andy Weed should step down as head coach. This is not a one game we ask him because they lost. In this game, you guess the talking head. You can quote me on that. Quote me.

Ooh. Yay, welcome in. a Friday quote me on CNN. What up, Danny G? In this game, Covino, you've got to tell me who in the sports world said it. All right? Simple as that. All right.

We're going to meet the contestants. The Howard Stern Fartman character creator, Steve Covino, right over there. Is that true? Created Fartman. Yes, you know Covino used to work at K Rock, right? Wasn't he also the stand-in for the butcheeks? He was, yeah. To the right of him, current 49er wine, Somali, Rich Davis.

That is me? He wore the Testudo Bird, costume for four years. Spotty boy. That is true. How did you know that? In for Dan Byers, the man who was once mistaken for Arnold Schwarzenegger at a Chargers game, Isaac Lowen-Crom. Chargers.

And looking to win a C&R stainless steel Swiggy on the studio lines. All right, Ilo, I'll use you for this. Would you love? Go, Chargers. Would you love? That was me. Get to the Chargers now. To travel to beautiful Paradise, California.

Get that housekeeper away from me. Sorry. Whoa. Ro! Erie Pennsylvania, Corvallis, Oregon, Sacramento, California, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, or Phoenix, AZ. All these are tough. Did you say A. Z? Lauderdale's great Brazilian steakhouse there called Chima.

You know what? I'm going to go to Latterdale. You can go, all right, that's Jorge. Jorge. Jorge. How are you? Happy Friday. What you do for a living there in Fort Lauderdale?

Happy Friday, guys. I'm a technician for AT&T. Nice, man. Nice. Okay, really quick since the first time a lot of you are playing this game. I'll give you a sample question here. All right. Here's the quote.

Quote me. Who me? For all I know, I would have been in the pros. I would have been David Wright instead of David Wright. I remember if I'd go Apo instead of being like, oh, I went with the outside pitch. Oh, you're not getting around on the ball. Whose quote is that? A, KFC.

B, Rich Davis or C, Jason Smith. Spot. Spot. Rich Davis. Yes. Oh, see, yeah, I did say that. Wow, you said that? Did you actually, wait, did he actually say this?

He didn't use the word oppo? I thought this was a joke. He actually said this. This is how it sounded on the CNN show. For all I know, I would have been in the pros. I would have been David Wright instead of David Wright. I remember if I would go Apo, instead of being like, oh, I went with that outside pitch. Oh, you're not getting around on the ball.

What are you like David wrong, bro? My coach is growing up used to tell me if you don't get around on the ball, Like, that's not good. I'm definitely not putting five on that. You know, when quoted and on paper, it makes me want to punch me in the nose. That could have been David Wright, bro. You could have been David Wright. But he had too much Big League chew.

There it is. All right, here we go. This is for real. Round one. Here comes the quote guys. Your name is your buzzer, right, Danny? Yes. It is a doggie bag, as in Aaron Rogers is ready to dine on leftovers.

He is perfectly fine and realizes his place in the cosmos. If the Rams send Matthew Stafford to Jersey and the Giants, Rogers will slide on into the penthouse apartment in the RAM facility. Quote me. Who me? A, Dan Patrick. B, Ben Mallor, or C, Doug Gottlieb. B.

Covino. Ben Mallor. It was Ben Mallor. You know why? Because I listened to a lot of Ben Mallor. And he just cuts everybody up, dude. I thought that was going to be Stephen A. No, if you gave me a Rob Parker,

I can see doggy bag. I could have saw that, but it had to be Ben Mallon. This is what it sounded like. It is a doggy bag. As in Aaron Rogers is ready to dine on leftovers. He is perfectly fine and realizes his place in the cosmos. If the Rams send Matthew Stafford to Jersey and the Giants, Rogers will slide on in to the penthouse apartment in the RAM facility. And you know what?

That storyline is now dead because we found out today. Stafford's staying with the Rams. So quickly, who will go to Jersey? Covino is on the board as we moved to round two. Here is the quote. They know who Luca is. They've watched him for seven years. It ain't like that this is a knee-jerk reaction,

and they just knew him from the weekend and made a snap decision on who he is. Quote me. Is that a, Rob Parker, B, Nick Wright, or C, Mike Harmon. I'll give you a chance of Jorge. Hey, you know, no instincts here or what? We're trying to get your mind.

B. B, you're going to go Nick Wright. No. Isaac. Isaac for the steel. C. Mike Harmon. No, you're all losers.

Rob Parker. That was Rob Parker. This is what it sounded like. They know who Luca is. They've watched them for seven years. It ain't like this is a knee jerk reaction. And they just knew him from the weekend and made a snap decision on who he is. These do-do diaper.

I'd like to register a complaint. You did not read that quote with the Rob Parker inflection. Rob Parker. Do you see the story how Jeannie Bus also was very pumped to get Luca because it was Gigi, Brian's favorite player, and it meant a lot to Kobe. And she knows he's happy up there that Luca's part of the team. I thought that was kind of cool. Covino, you're the only one on the board so far as we go to round three.

Here's the quote. I'm going to keep it a. big buck as I only know how to do. Steve Smith did you a favor, bro. He identified who you was actually married to. She ain't loyal to you. She don't belong to you. If I'm Steve Smith, I would have added something else.

I did what I was supposed to do. She threw it. I caught it. I'm a receiver. Quote me. Who me? Who said it? A. Paul Pierce.

B. Cam Newton. Or C. Stephen A. Smith. Oh. Kov for the win. Stephen A. Smith C. No. Oh, rich, rich, rich for the steel. Cam Newton Biggs.

Yes, sir. By the way, that story is juicy, dude. Juicy. Honestly. This is the way it sounded. I'm going to keep with a big buck as I only know how to do. Steve Smith did you a favor, bro. He identified who you actually was married to.

She ain't loyal to you. She don't belong to you. If I'm Steve Smith, I would have added something else. I did what I was supposed to do. If you don't know the Steve Smith story, look it up. It's a weird one. Yeah. All right, here we go round four, both C and R on the board.

Here's the quote, guys. He really don't have anything else left to prove, and if people say he does, they're Jordan fans. He's in here before the game, always putting in work. He never stops, which is very impressive, because sometimes I just want to lay down and take a nap. Quote me. Who me?

Was that A, J.J. Reddick. B, Dalton Connect, or C, Austin Reeves? Austin Reeves. Oh. Jorge, you got to say your name. C. Austin Reeves, Jorge. Yes, Jorge jumps on the board.

That was a big quote this week. Yeah, for a three-way tie, Covino, Rich, Jorge, and Fort Lauderdale all on the board. Guys, that means we go to overtime. Here's the quote for overtime. I think the fans here tonight, even the magic fans, they know they're witnessing the greatest shooter ever and one of the greatest performers ever.

It's not just the shots going in. It's the fluidity and the beauty of his motion and the audacity, the shots he's willing to take. Quote me. Who me? Was that A, Steve Kerr. B, Jimmy Butler, or C, Buddy Healed? Rich. B, Jimmy Butler.

Oh, Rich got in their first. I'll give him a check. I don't think it's Jimmy Butler. I'll let him guess. That is, uh, buddy here. No, you're bottom. I love it. I love it.

I love it. You are so confident. All right. one more overtime question here to try to get a winner. Oh, my goodness. Here's the quote. Yeah, good game. I want teams to believe I can go out there and win games.

If a team wants a winner, a franchise leader, they know who to call. Quote me. Who me? Was that A. Shador Sanders. B, Dylan Gabriel. Or C. Jackson Dart. George. Shador Sanders.

No. Oh. Covino. Somebody for the win. Covino for the win. DART. No. Come on. Spot B.

Oh, man. I have a way to solve it. Ready? Yeah. There we go. Quote this. You guys are all idiots. A, Danny G. How am I the idiot?

You guys didn't get the answers right. No, did you call for all idiots? Wow. Oh, I got you. That's a good one. You're the host. All right. Yeah, so.

Is it a drawer? Yeah, it's a draw man. Nobody wins this week. No, well, draw means Jorge wins. I think you're right. And we always have that rule Dan Byer put in. If somebody puts a good game on the board, we mail them a swiggy. Yeah.

If you bring the enthusiasm like Jorge, we got your bow. We got your bow. Hit Pip Jorge. You got a swiggy, man. You held out when we went to distance. You win. Yeah. Stay on the line, brother.

Thank you, man. That was a good. That was a good one, Danny G. Some of them I knew. Jorge got the best of me on that on that Reeves one. I knew that quote. Those were good ones, man. Thank you.

I feel like the clue for a Rob Parker one, is if it's preposterous. Right. But I got to hear the voice because I love Rob's voice. Oh, ha. Oh, man. That was a good game.

Danny. Good stuff, man. Rob Parker. All right. Hey, we got more Kavino and Rich coming up. We're going to talk a little more NFL. Where's the, now that Matthew Stafford is a ram, what does that mean next for the remaining quarterbacks in the NFL?

We'll speculate a little bit, have some fun with that. And weekend hobnobbing. I got two shows that we have not talked about yet that are must watches outside the all the sports. Plus, you didn't finish talking your smack about the Big Vanilla Sports Poppy. Oh, yeah, you know what? You forgot your own question, you bozo. I'm going to repost it at Covino and Rich.

And if you go on Instagram, I want you to tell me, do you think our pal here at Fox Sports Radio, the big is he the Big Vanilla liar? The Big Vanilla VJ Vernon Husky. Did he make this shot in crypto on his first try? Or do you think he did this 20 times? He was covering a,

Lakers game. Yeah. And he's on the court and he's there like, look at me, I'm a big shot. And I'm going to prove it. And he took a big shot and it depicts that he made it on his first attempt from like, you know, three point range. Do you think? And we're like, do you really think he got it first shot? You know, I'll show him a little love on our Instagram. At Covino, Rich,

you can vote. Was it his first shot or not? Maybe. I don't know. See it our next right here on Fox Sports Radio. Now, we're Kavino and Rich.

And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, huge news? we created our own podcast called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts.

Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. 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. 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.

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.

Genshin won. 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, Lena Rubakina 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. Everybody thinking of Farley and Swayzee or no? I mean, how do you not? Today's Friday.

Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio live from the Tyrek.com studio. Super pumped about the weekend, and we're going to get you pumped about the weekend with weekend hobnobbing. And make the rest of this month count. have a great Friday night, get involved. Enjoy your Friday. Enjoy some paradise. I might be watching Paradise, Rich.

I don't know. We'll see you in weekend hobnobbing. I'm going to do one last ditch effort to get you to watch a couple fun shows. Now, before we get into your big vanilla sports poppy question in weekend hobnobbing, I heard Colin talking about stars and stars. Stars. And he went on this long. Long LeBron rant about how he's probably the second best player in the league.

Yokic being number one, I guess. But you got Janus, K.D., Curry, all these big names. LeBron playing like he's 27 years old. Defense, shooting, revitalized. Like he found the fountain of youth. But the gist of Collins' theory was, is LeBron just showing off reminding everybody that you have to get through him on the West? Now that Luca's there, is he reminding everybody that, you know, I'm still the guy?

Did Luca force his hand to find the fountain of youth? Meaning, you see how Curry's sort of lighting up now that Butler's there? And he also ties into the Super Bowl when Brady was looked at like the old guy. And Mahomes was the fresh new face. and Brady want to remind everybody real quick, like, nah, I'm still Tom Brady. I'm still the guy. Is a great way to light somebody's fire to bring some young blood in there and to wake up that old dog? Is Luca in a competitive way, in a healthy way, lighting LeBron's fire, reminding LeBron like, yo, you got to be the guy, you're still the guy?

I think that's a great sort of way to look at things. And I think you see that at the workplace. I really do. You know, when Young Blood is in there, it keeps everyone else on their toes. It really does. So I buy into that because you do see LeBron playing like, whoa, how old is this guy?

How is he doing this? Don't you believe, Danny G, that it's not that Luca's exciting him. He's also like, yo, I'm still the best. And it's like a healthy competitive back and forth. I think another great thing about the acquisition, for the Lakers is LeBron would go to the bench. The B squad would be in and get behind in the game. LeBron would always have to come back onto the court

when the Lakers would suddenly be trailing. Now there's the option of having another superstar on the court while he's taken a few minutes to catch his breath. When he gets back onto the court, the team still has a 10-point lead. So he physically is getting this advantage. But, you know, people are saying, dude, he seems like he has more energy than Luca.

at 47, Lucas 26. Let me give you a silly analogy, but you see it all the time. When someone has an aging pet, a lot of times when they get a puppy, it brings that aging pet back to life. The old lazy dog all of a sudden starts playing again. Like there's that sense. We've seen it with, you know, your family, your friends where it's like, yeah, old, you know, buttons the golden retriever has been lazy and sitting around forever.

You get a little puppy. That old dog starts playing fetching. again for some reason. And we're seeing that with Steph and Butler. We're seeing that. We saw that with Brady versus Mahomes. He's like, no, no. It revitalized him. And we're seeing it in one of the grandest ways

possible with LeBron for multiple reasons. It's just that fire inside and he's actually getting more rest as a result. But it's kind of wild to see. And I think your analogy rich, I think it's so true here. It inspires a lot of people. It reminds other people that they got to step

their game up too. And no one wants to feel like the old lazy guy. At the workplace, you bring in some young man or woman with new fresh ideas and they're young. The old people sometimes out of insecurity, you're like, oh, crap, I better step it up. Exactly. And honestly, it's true with pets. You get an old, you know, lazy hound sitting around and you get some little yappy little puppy brings a little life to the old time or so. So do you think, again, Colin was saying he's the second best player in the league. Do we agree on that right now? Maybe right now.

LeBron is lighting it up. But then again, so are the Golden State Warriors, man, since Butler's been on the team. So there you go. The LeBron Fountain of View theory makes a lot of sense when you think about the old dog. And by the way, today, do they take Luca out for a little birthday cocktail

or dessert after the game? Happy birthday Luca. He's 26 today. 26. So happy birthday. Your young buck just showing this guy's got 50, you know, LeBron's got 15 years on this guy.

So LeBron's showing the fountain of youth. And tonight, Lakers Clippers, Clippers are favored. Is that because Lakers played more this week? Yeah, and there was a couple of injuries, a big one to Rui and his knee in last night's game. And at the end of the game, it looked like LeBron maybe tweaked his hamstring a little bit.

So it might not play full tonight. Some injuries going into this game for the Lakers. Well, if you go to our Instagram, story right now at Covino Enrich. I mean, I'm not saying millions of people have voted so far, but it is currently 100% to zero of people that think VJ Vernon Husky took 25 shots instead of nailed it on his first shot. If you don't know what I'm talking about, one of our coworkers posted a video.

He's a great broadcaster, by the way, listen out for him, VJ Husky. He was at the Lakers game covering the game, doing the behind the scenes, interviews and everything. and he goes on the court, grabs a basketball, three-pointer, nothing but the bottom of the net. So our question was, but he's pretending like, you know, first shot. And I'm thinking, was it first shot? Or do you think he's like, yo, yo, record this. All right, do it again.

All right, do it again. And again. All right, do it again. And again. Was it really shot 25? There's no way. There's no way. Dude, if you post a video with your wife.

Your perception's a little off when you're there at a big, big moment like that too. Like it's going to take you a few just to find your rhythm, you know what I mean? Think of how many times you record something on Instagram or TikTok for your wife or kids or something. Do you ever take the first take? No. Has the first take of anything?

Unless you're Frank Sinatra. It's like you always burn the first pancake, Rich. You'll always burn the first. Danny G. If we take a picture of us, what do we do? We always take multiple pictures. If we do a video like, you know, Jenny G, come over here. Let's do that again. Let's do a better one. Yeah, rarely

Does the first one come out the right way? When you're trying to do something athletic, especially, like make a long shot. Another one. It would surprise me if he did that on his first. But then again, for what I know, he was an athletic dude in high school. He just decided to go to broadcasting. You know, he works with radio legend Steve Hartman this Saturday on our network from 8 to 11 Eastern. I'm going to text our boy Steve Hartman right now to bring this up on their weekend show.

Look, no one's saying he can't make a three-point shot. We all can make a three-point shot. I mean, did he make it on his first shot? We're the pockets square in a tight suit on. Yeah, that's the question. The analogy for me would be, I love baseball, right? There's a decent chance, especially without a doubt with an aluminum bat, I can hit a home run out of Dodger Stadium. Wooden bat, I don't know. Maybe I have warning track power. Maybe I could do it. That's up for debate. But that would be like me being like, yo, grab a bat. First swing, bomb.

Who you want Soto? Yeah, exactly. So, I mean, like, I admire the gusto. Oh, he has one vote. One person? One person? Yeah, it's his own vote. It's 847 votes to one.

No, all right. So hit the producer up and maybe they'll talk about it this weekend. But, hey, having fun here. Friday, Kavino and Rich. Let's go to ILO for an update. And then I got to know what we're watching this weekend. Not only in the world of sports, but I have three things I want to tell you guys to check out. So hang tight.

What's up, Ilo? Fox Sports Radio's Rich Davis under fire for referring to LeBron James as a decont crepit old dog not long for this world. Quote him. I love LeBron. It was a great. Colin-esque analogy, though. I really feel that. I think Luca lit his fire,

brought like some fun competitive spirit back to the Lakers. He's revitalized, man. I'm refreshing LeBron's Twitter feed as we speak for the inevitable comeback. Anyway, in actual NBA news, fellows, the Philadelphia 76ers are shutting down Joelle and Bede for the rest of of the season due to ongoing issues with his left knee. The Sixers said in a statement, Embed is medically unable to play

and will now focus on treatment and rehabilitation. No word yet on what this means for the status of Paul George's podcast. Anyway, the Boston Celtics ruled out Chris Stap's Porzinger's for tonight's game against Cleveland due to illness. In the NFL, Matthew Stafford, staying with the Los Angeles Rams. Multiple outlets report he's reached agreement on a restructured contract to remain in L.A. Multiple outlets also reporting the Rams have agreed with left tackle

Alarick Jackson on a three-year $57 million extension. Finally, Front Office sports reports that NFL films could not find an NFL team to be featured on the next off-season installment of Hard Knocks. So instead, the series will follow the North Carolina Tar Heels and new head coach Bill Belichick. No word yet. If NFL films considered the possibility of a hard knocks, Indianapolis Starbucks. Back to you guys.

Any game stand out, any new streaming show stand out. I got a couple. And one has to do with basketball. I watched episode one last night. And I got to give you the review next. It's on Netflix. And you might not even know about it. Have you heard about Running Point with Kate Hudson?

No. I'll tell you about it and all the shows to watch this weekend. Next, here being on Rich, Fox Sports Radio. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news. What's the news? Huge news.

We created our own podcast called, Hey, Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. 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. We 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,

Living for the weekend. You're winning bets for talking points if you get stuck socializing. You ever done anything dangerous? You ever dance with the devil and the pale moonlight? That is dangerous. Friday brings us. Weekend Hobnobnobie. Yeah, buddy.

I'm going to kick it off. What you need to watch in a world of sports and podcast. culture. So come Monday, you know what's going on. You can carry a conversation. You caught a little bit of everything, all right? Trying to keep you well-rounded. CNNR on FSR. Now, we talked about some good fights. If you get caught, by the way, what's the rule now? The new rule? If you get caught talking to like a weird coworker or a parent at the school, if you get stuck in a moment, be like, hey, have you checked out Kavino-Ritch? Grab their phone and download a podcast. There you go. I like it. That's the new get-out-out-of-an-a-crow move. I like it. So in the world of fighting.

On Amazon pay-per-view this weekend, Durante Tank Davis defending the WBA lightweight championship belt at 135 against Lamont Roche, who's 25-1-1. So Dravante Tank Davis fights this weekend. Germante ain't losing. I don't think he's losing either. He's undefeated.

I think Mario Barrios is on that card too. Anyway, I'm excited just to watch that one. Again, pay-per-view. In the world of the UFC. Oh, what you got there? Mono Cop is fighting. he's fighting Alme Bayev

and that's a flyweight fight UFC fight night but Brundage versus Marquez and the co-main event is going to be an exciting one that's a middleweight fight did you say Robocops fighting Robocop Monel Cop

Oh okay APE I swear I heard Robocop No no no By the way speaking of UFC Did you see that the UFC might have a collaboration in training FBI agents

No way Did you see this? I did not Imagine in the middle of an FBI I bust in incomes. I think they should recruit Kianu. Kiano should train the FBI. I'm being serious, that's a real headline I saw today.

New leadership at the FBI and, you know, Dana White, Trump, they're kind of buddies. Yeah, it makes sense. It's all kind of circular. I mean, speaking of fights, Trump got in a pretty good fight today. I don't know if I saw that. And by the way, you know, when I think about it, it sounds equal parts ridiculous, but equal part makes sense.

I guess so. Like, I mean, right? I mean, we haven't seen the result of it. UFC training FBI guys? Hand-to-hand combat. I mean, stranger things have happened. So some good boxing, some good UFC, UFC Fight Night.

And I just want to shamelessly promote what I think is one of the best shows that we do, that we have, our bonus podcast. Episode 82 of Overpomis premiered this week. And we get you fired up some more about baseball, the greatest sport. We talk about nasty Nestor Cortez in the World Series last year. but we get you excited about baseball coming soon. And we talk Gene Hackman. We do a little Gene Hackman tribute and go over some fictional coaches in a world of sports, TV and movies.

All right. So overpomised us on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page, stuff you need to watch this weekend. You can finally watch Paradise? I might actually, yeah. I think I might. Is it because I know you hate my opinion because you, you know, just our relationship. but when every other friend you have is like, dude, he's reasonable right. I'm starting to get a little bit of fomo because everyone, and I don't want the surprise room.

I know there's a twist and I feel like I'm on the cusp of finding out what that twist is. I want to discover it on my own. I'll tell you right. No. My wife, it took her the first two episodes to really, by the third, she was like, okay, I get it now. I'm hooked. So we're on episode four now, Rich. On Paradise?

Yes. Episode seven of Paradise? I'm hearing it's like the best episode ever. It might be the best episode of a TV show since, maybe like Red Wedding on Game of Thrones, or one of those like, yo, that could be a movie. That episode could be a movie. So if you're watching Paradise, it's on Hulu, Sterling K. Brown from This Is Us, James Marsden, who you said, how do you not love that guy? He's great. James Marsden's great.

There's a show that I started watching last night. In the same vein as Paradise, zero day with Robert De Niro. You may think De Niro stinks as a guy. these days. Like he's very, you know, politically, like he's rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. But as an actor, he's still, a little bit. He still brings it. A little bit. Zero day. See, like 83? Zero day. He plays a former president and let you say there's like a cyber attack and a lot of

crap goes wrong. And he's sort of thrown into the mix as a former president. Like, they trust you. Go. And it's one of those like end of the world type of deal. Yeah. Watch the trailer. It looks good. I watched this again. Zero Day on Netflix. Netflix. It's a six-part mini-series. Episode one, so far so good. So both in the same vein.

Paradise and Zero Day. If you need something lighter, I watched this one last night, late night. On Netflix, Kate Hudson, based on her close relationship with Jeannie Bus, a television show loosely based on Jeannie Bus's life. it's called Running Point She takes over a fictional L.A.

basketball team What are they called the Los Angeles Wave? Like they can't use the Lakers or anything but she takes over the wave and like it's like a rated R funny comedy about, you know,

Kate Hudson now in charge of a basketball team. And I watch episode one. It was entertaining. I like Lisa Hudson. So if you like Kate Hudson, if you like basketball, it's a good show. and Jeannie Bus is behind it.

Apparently, Pepperdine did not like the use of the term wave or waves and the color scheme. And they're like, they're upset. And I think they're filing like a lawsuit or something over some of the likeness that's been borrowed for the show. Pepperdine right here in LA. Now it's to get canceled, just like winning time. But no, honestly, Danny J. If anything, I feel like you would like that because the Jeannie Bus, Lakers, it's clearly the Lakers. Because they talk about their legacy and you see all the trophies.

And it's the Lakers, but it's the wave. new episodes out today of the latest season and Love is Blind, season eight. And guys, after a two-year wait, Yellowstone fans are going to like this on Paramount Plus the second season of 1923, which is the prequel to Yellowstone. Harrison Ford is back as Jacob Dutton,

the camera work, the storyline, the cast, amazing. So 1923. Harrison Ford's been working a lot in his 80s. That dude needs to relax, but he's bringing it, huh? I think if he slows down, he's going to pick the bucket. more in the past few years than he's done

in his entire 70s. Yeah, I think you're right. Maybe he was inspired by a young dog. Maybe. Danny G. I have a question about Love is Blind, though. I started it. Does it get better? It picks up or no? Or is this a boring season?

I like it. Have you got to the point where, you know, the attractive yet crazy blonde with the tattoo on her chest? I just think she's attractive. Maybe I like crazy people. I don't know. If you think she's not crazy, then that's the problem with you. Maybe I haven't gotten to that part yet.

It gets good. I think it gets good. Have you not noticed it's like three or four love triangles? Like who are they going to pick? Yeah, I don't know. I feel slow to me. Maybe I'm not caring as much about these strangers as I used to. Yeah, there's a couple of good storylines.

It's worth getting to the good stuff. All right. In my honest opinion, I'm actually excited to watch it tonight. So yeah, it does get better. Really quick, too, on the NBA tip Sunday. Nuggets at the Celtics. That's worth watching. That's a daytime game.

And then at night, Clippers at the Lakers for the second time in a weekend at the two face off against each other. So, hey, lots to check out. Spot, anything you want to add? Is there anything in the theater? Is it a dead time still? Well, Captain America, Brave New World is still allowed. You got the Academy Awards on Sunday.

Did you guys mention that? The Oscars are this Sunday. 97th Academy Awards. Hosted by Conan. Conan Freakin O'Brien. You know, that's what's tuning in alone for. I'm being serious, Sam. That alone.

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. Tired and sick. 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, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smygel and friends.

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 of black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. This is an IHeart podcast.
