It's the best time of your life. Awesome. Pancakes, the smell of mom's pancakes, run downstairs to watch some Muppet babies. We'll be talking cartoons, but we got lots of sports to talk to and talk about. Hope you had a Rockets Timberwolf store tonight.

C&R. We be rocking out. Let's go. All right. All right. All right. All right. All right. Broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio Studio.

Again, I'm Steve Kavino. That is Rich Davis. Danny G. Super producing. He's on the phones at 87799 on Fox. If you want to chime in on anything we discuss, we include everybody. We're so inclusive. We include Iowa, Sam.

Everybody, Iowa. Sam. Indeed. What up, Sam. Hi. And, of course, DB's on the updates, the greatest in the land. He's got you covered in all things, sports.

Now, NBA game last night that I feel like left everyone disappointed. Unless you're a Timberwolves fan. I did love the Anthony Edwards lap around crypto. Yeah, but anytime you run out of gas is disappointing. That's what seemed to happen to the Lakers. So we're going to talk about some of the feedback from coach JJ Redick. We're going to go old school, like you said, some funny cartoon conversation. There's a dilemma in the NFL that I don't think enough people are thinking about yet.

There's an NFL dilemma that you're going to go, oh, what would I do? It's a matter of. But we were also supposed to talk about records, sports records being broken. So look, whatever we don't have time for, we'll do on overpromised. That's later today, 4 p.m. on Fox Sports Radio show, YouTube page, 4 p.m. on the West, 7 p.m. on the East. So, no, 4 p.m. on the West, 7 p.m. on the East. Do you say that? 7 p.m. in the East? You clean your ears out.

Yep. That's what I said. I did with Q. tips and people say that's not good. Well, you're not supposed to stick them all the way in. Nobody's supposed to clean your ears with it. I don't know. You need one of those weird things to wash your ears out. Just the tip. Yeah, just the tip, Rich. But I have

a question. Has anyone bought one of those infomercial items where it's like, here's a camera you can attach to your phone? And go in your ear? It works. It's amazing. And it's fascinating. Man. What's it? Did you find the work boot and a license plate? What's in there? No. My ears are a lot cleaner than I thought, but those things are cool. I feel like

And they work. That would just be Be careful with him. Sam, I'm convinced. Don't poke yourself. I see these videos on social media like we all do. I'll give you mine. You want it? Can you share those things?

Yeah, you can. I don't think it's like sharing a toothbrush. Rich does. No, Rich shares a toothbrush with his wife. Any share socks with his wife. All right. Well, first of all, you can't say something like that without explaining. Does it really need explanation?

It does because I don't share a toothbrush with my wife. You have them. In a jam, if you're on a one-night trip and you're like, oh, crap, I forgot my toothbrush. You're not supposed to share. She kisses him. I think it's all. Well, she does it. What I do?

I don't want to know. You're worried about a toothbrush? Yeah, I mean, that's true. But yeah, that's where I draw the line. You watch socks, too. Yeah, as the old expression goes, people are willing to blank butt of toothbrushes as way you draw the line?

It's like celebrities. We don't care about their houses, their cars, their jewelry, their opulence, but Katie Perry goes to outer space. And that's where the line is, outer space, I guess. I guess. So, and socks I do share. I'm like that dude from Love is Blind. Remember that the girl?

all on the show who had a sock bin for the family. But you know what's misleading and unfortunate about admitting that? You have a beautiful wife. Yeah. It makes it seem like she has giant man feet if you share socks with her. And she doesn't. Oh, you have petite feet. Yeah. Or Rich wears like size sixes.

Pink fluffy petite feet. I got a little tutsies. Rich has little tutsies. He wears fingertow socks or grippy things on the bottom. There are times where... Speaking of Spongebop. They'll be... Oh, Riches socks. They'll be times where my wife and I will share socks.

If they're like a bag of gold-toe socks, you buy a target or something. How about you be a man and wear your own socks? I don't get it. Rich wear is the ones with the little ball on the heel. Stop it. Yeah, a little low-boy sucks. Got a little poofy balls on the back of my socks.

So anyway, let's get into it. But I digress. I had a point. You had no point. It's possible. Now, think of it. Did I have a point? Maybe you saved me from no point.

I know you wanted to jump off the show, talking about hood rat things. I did, but now I feel like I missed out on something even better. You got to fast forward sometimes. All right, fast forward, missed the point. There's a story today. Before we get into all the meat of the show, NFL dilemma, J.J. Reddick, old school.

I saw a story, and I think everyone in the studio has kids or have been around nieces, nephews, you know, you got kids in the neighborhood. I want you to put in your mind a seven-year-old and a five-year-old. old. Maybe your kids are that age. My daughter's seven and my son's five. Yeah. Not a lot going on with seven and five year olds. Meaning like they're still little. They can barely wipe themselves. They're still picking their nose. Your niece and nephew that live out here in L.A. James and Gweney. How old are they? They're around the same age. I think like eight and four? Like you wouldn't leave them alone. They're not at that age. You don't really let them out of your

sight. Seven and five? That's kindergarten and what, first, second grade. There's a headline today. And I was like, this can't be true. Seven-year-old who wanted McDonald's drives 10 miles with his little sister. Yes, I saw this. Dude, a seven-year-old boy who's like, hey, come on, I want the new Minecraft toy and some nuggies. You know how hungry you must be?

Seven-year-old boy, five-year-old girl. I believe the parents are not feeding this kid. Danny G., we talk quite a bit. You've been to my house. I know your kid, you know my kids. Can you imagine my son and daughter stealing my car and driving? How is that even possible? Well, you read how it was possible, or did you see the news clip?

They hit things and stuff like that, but was one using the pedals, one with the steering wheel? Like, what are we doing? Well, I don't know if we're talking about two clips. The one I saw, the kid looked it up on YouTube, and that's how he learned how to drive. And it says that he went through like four intersections and didn't hit anything. And it was made it. Right. Yeah, that's wild.

And courageous, because when I was a kid, that was like my nightmare, like my reoccurring nightmare is a kid like I was alone in the car and it starts moving backwards. You know, I don't know to do this. Wait, that happened to me and my siblings as a kid once and I thank God that no car was coming. My grandfather ran in the house, like probably forgot his pack of cigarettes or something. Oh, I forgot my smokes. Went in the house. My little brother on that, remember how back in the day the shifter was on the steering wheel?

Of course. My brother just pulled it down. We rolled out of the driveway into the street and thank God no one was. coming. That's scary. So imagine how scared you were as a kid, right? I would have never done that. Like, yeah, you had fun maybe messing around, pressing a few buttons. But imagine being courageous or dumb enough. I mean, maybe the kid's dumb for all I know to think that he could drive at seven to McDonald's. He's smart. He learned how to drive from YouTube. You almost want to give that seven-year-old credit. That's brazen, man. I don't know. I couldn't

have done that. Damn, by you didn't a little brodie go to get a cake pocket with Starbucks when you said no one's right? Hopped in your car? Like, what do you do as a parent? He would. He loves those things. It's, oh, it's the worst. Talking about a rip-off.

How old is your kid again if you don't mind me? He just turned four last week. Yeah, that's right. So imagine your kid with another kid a couple years older being like, yeah, that seems impossible to me. But it reminds me of one of my favorite clips from over a decade ago, early days of Kravian-on-rich. What's his name? Like Latarian or Latanian?

Remember the kid that was like, I just want to do hood rat stuff? Yeah, that's the best. That's right. He was also seven. seven-year-old kid stole his mom's car and he said it's fun to do bad things to get for a joy ride

he hit like a bunch of mailboxes and yeah and he got in trouble for it so I just want to throw it out there before we get into the fun of today's show again NBA NFL just if you have little kids imagine a seven and five-year-old I was saying you've been in my house

can you imagine my kids just hopping in the car well how they went nine miles that's not how could the boys feet even reach the pedals you know did like a little rascal style when he like blocks on it. Yeah, gas, break, gas break. Did the scissors get down

there and push the pedals? It's only Well, that's how that other kid got pulled over. I mean, he had a bunch of things, but the story Rich speaks of where he was doing hood rat stuff. They said that there was several reports of a kid that could barely sit over, see over the steering wheel.

So yeah, to me, that's amazing that they even made it somewhat even close to McDonald's. It's also amazing to think that well, how many turns and how far was McDonald's, right? Like, to know the directions? You kidding me? I barely know how to get at McDonald's now.

It's wild. And again, these stories, you could laugh about them when no one gets hurt, right? Like, that's really the sentiment of most stories, right? Like, we're sort of on standby now waiting to see what happens to that poor kid in Pittsburgh that fell out of the stands in right field. Yeah, the debate today. Look like a rag doll phone down. We all could agree, like, man, there's nothing funny about that. and we could all agree that we're hoping for some good news.

I know he's under critical condition right now. But the debate is, did he jump or did he fall? No, he fell. He fell. He jumped up, he jumped up, but fell. That makes a lot of sense, but it still looks like to me, like he got one leg up on that rail. I know I get what you're saying, and that makes a lot of sense,

but my eyes are seeing something totally different. Imagine if you're drunk, which I think we've all been at least one. Well, there was a Reddit. article that came out. And a lot of people were saying that he was totally drunk, spilling beer all over himself. And then in that moment of excitement, he got up so fast that his momentum took him forward. Yeah, not to make light of it, but an inning before, Kavino's right, they said that he ripped his own shirt off, poured beer over his own hat.

Yeah, he was in the zone, like maniac mode. And then picture this, you're that drunk, big play in the game. You spring out of your seat. He sprung out of his seat so far. not to make light of it, sprung up, whoa, like just... And you're in balance. You don't have your balance under your feet under your... So, yeah, that all makes sense, but that's not what you kind of see, though, right?

Yeah. I don't know. It looks different. Everything you're saying, Rich, that makes total sense and seems possible. We're all wishing him the best. What I'm hoping for is that... The point is he's hurt. You can't really make fun of that.

I'm saying... Thank goodness these kids are safe, so yeah, let's have fun at their expense. I'm saying in weeks from now, I would love that if this kid did like a light-hard to interview somewhere. He recovered. He's like, man, what a crazy drunk bird brain. I'm so hoping that's the case. We can only hope for this kid, right? No one wants to see someone severely injure or kill themselves at a ball game. My dad has to see this clip. Unfortunately, it's hard to watch, but that was like his fear always. Like my dad would ruin a game for me as a kid because he'd be like, I can't see it up here. I feel like I'm going to fall. Like he would have

like a height thing. Yeah, I feel I can't do it. And I'd be like, what do you mean you can't do it? These are our seats. By the way, Kavino was at a Yankees game. You might remember this. You've told the story. This is a true story. I was at the Yankee game with my buddy, Sean, Sean, the lawyer, Rich knows him. Yeah.

And it's a memorable moment that you may have seen. Again, funny because the guy was fine. We're sitting there, and all of a sudden we see a guy fall over the stands, but he fell into the netting. Do you guys remember seeing that clip, and he has to crawl his way up from the net? Yeah. I was at that game. We're like, whoa. Or that clip that you love where the guy jumped through the ends.

zone and caught the extra point. Oh, Chicago. That's one of the best. I always joked and said that was Rich's dad. Like, yeah, Rich's dad when he caught that field goal, when he jumped into the stands. But again, everyone. The timing of that is just insane.

Everyone, you know, send your good vibes to that kid in Pittsburgh. Absolutely. People fall in baseball stadiums. They fall from the stands way too often. Like that happens like that's a lot of years. Remember the fat woman a naked gun that fell on Reggie Jackson? That's what's just the beginning of it. You know, it's while, though, some of the angles you feel like you're going to fall.

It's really wild to see it actually happen like that. You know where they... 20-something feet, 27 feet or whatever he fell? Just hope he's all right. You know where they say that's the most extreme? I've never been. I don't know. DB, you're a golf guy.

I don't know if you're a tennis guy. US Open in Queens. They say that that is... You can see it. People talk about how if you are up high and you're one of the people like your dad that's like, I don't know. My dad would not sit there.

It apparently is like you are looking straight down. Like it's scary. Up high at Sofi here in Los Angeles is like that. It's steep. Like you feel like if you slip, you would tumble straight down. I would suppose to for a tennis venue because the court is so small that you really can't spread it out because you'd be far away. So they try to stack you in that way. Well, you know what's going to happen?

We're going to see major changes moving forward. They're going to have a wall 20 feet high or some sort of plexiglass because think about why we have the nets there and foul territory in the first place. Because a kid was hitting the head, right, with a line drive. So then nets go up. Yeah, multiple kids. I remember one clip. I always tell Rich this. No one ever remembers and there's no footage at all.

I remember watching an All-Star game when I was a kid. It was an All-Star game and Wade Boggs was a red sock and he gets a screaming line drive into the stands. And the camera pans over into the stands and some guy was like, ah, holding his neck because he got hit with a line drive in the neck. And he's like, oh! And I remember like noticing it as a kid and no one really commented on it. Yeah. So I was like, is that serious?

Was he joking or what? But sure enough, people were getting hit all the time. so they put those nets up. After this, after this happened, I guarantee you something's going to change. They're not going to allow this to happen again, especially if the guy was that trunk and he fell over like that, no way.

Remember when OJ was in a wheelchair and Frank Drebin? I do. Pat him on the back. You said you weren't going to joke about this. No, I'm not joking about naked gun. No, of course, of course. No, but you know what, Rich? If you haven't seen the clip, that's sort of what it looks like. It looks fake.

It looks like, wow, is that real? Or like some weird AI, as Danny G. It didn't look real because he really rag-dolled over the rail. All right, so don't do hood red stuff. Be careful at stadiums. I think we learned some lessons already here on Kavino and Rich. Now, Danny J., I know how it feels to come in to work when you work in the world of sports. The day after your team loses, I love the fact you have the pride to wear your Lakers hat today.

I noticed it. I noticed it. I just feel like even the casual NBA fan, even if they wanted the Lakers to lose eventually, A first round exit just stinks. That's really, there's no other way to put it. It just stinks. Yeah. But I've been through this with my favorite baseball team.

Dodgers, a couple seasons in a row, had the same sort of exit. And, you know, you feel fortunate to be there. You don't want to go out that quickly. But obviously, there's a lot of reasons on why the Lakers fell short. Yeah, you would have assumed, I mean, I thought for sure that it would, did win last night at home and then eventually maybe lose. Yeah. Right off the bat, though. I think people forget how good the Minnesota Timberwolves, as Moncey says, were last season.

How deep into the playoffs they went last season. And I think, now, I could be wrong. I mean, I'm wrong quite a bit. But something we're going to go over on overpromise, because we have so many other things to get through now. But I want everyone to think about this and join us after the show because we have our bonus video pod. Is Anthony Edwards and the T. Wolves? Is that the fun story if your team's out of it?

Like, is it an easy rooting interest? like, yo, Anthony Edwards, fun young kid. Minnesota's never won before. That's the key right there. Small market team. Oh, to see him small, like to see the Anthony Edwards that took out LeBron, Luca, Lakers,

and to see him move forward and see him take out other teams, yeah, that'll be like, man, the birth of this legacy. Or on the other side, Rich, the mecca of basketball. Madison Square Guard and the Knicks. I mean, that might be the match. And they're due, yeah. People want to see. I just think there are certain teams that if you told me it was going to be

Denver Nuggets, Boston Celtics. Ugh. Blah. To be, well-deserved great franchises and organizations, but Luca versus the Celtics again would sort of be not tickling my wavis at all, to be honest. So, hey, we'll get to that on overpromise. But when it comes to the Lakers, Danny,

you were sending us a bunch of articles about J.J. Reddick. Yeah, and the latest one from Bleacher Report, he says that the team needs to get into championship. championship shape. I'll say the conditioning you saw in the fourth quarters where they had leads earlier in the series. And then last night with that small ball lineup that Reddick was going with, which he's getting a lot of crap for, they were able to come back and tighten the game up and tie it at one point. Go ahead by a point or two at one point. But you could see towards the end of the

game, just like the previous playoff game, they started to stand around the three point line. And the offense was not moving fluidly. And that's a problem. Small ball gives you an advantage. Why? Because supposedly you could run up and down the court and use your speed to your advantage and maybe, you know, find some mismatches on the floor. Yeah.

Open things up, right? But when the offense gets stagnant and starts standing around, remember that stretch where the game was tied 82 to 82? Yeah. It seemed like forever. And the guys, when they're standing around tired like that and, Reeves is chucking up threes and LeBron starts chucking up threes. Yeah, exactly.

They're out of gas. Yeah, for sure. You know, there was one moment, and I don't want to lazily add to the Luca conditioning narrative. That's not what I'm trying to do, but there was a point where remember when Luca went in for that layup and he was convinced he was fouled and he really wasn't and he just missed the layout. His body language from that point on with a couple minutes left in the game was like, like, ruby shoulders. not conditioned, right? Like, imagine you tell in LeBron like he needs to condition better.

You look at you like, you're telling me, it's championship shape. I believe that was the quote. Take a listen to J.J. Reddick. I'll start with the offseason and the work that's required in an off season to be in championship shape.

And that's the key. You know, we have a ways to go as a roster. And certainly there are individuals that were in phenomenal shape. There's certainly other ones that could have been in better shape. That's where my mind goes immediately is, you know, we have to get in championship shape. I love this for multiple reasons.

It takes the heat off of him and his decisions, right? His coaching. Does it, though? Because it's getting criticized. And it also exposes the truth here. Because be real about it. These are all great teams, and every great team is looking for that mismatch or that edge.

And the edge here was they weren't as in championship shape as the Timberwolves. It could be an age thing or just a conditioning thing. And it was so noticeable. When the casual fan could notice this, you know there's an issue. And he pointed it out and he's right about it. I think that was what really separated. And it's a shame that the Lakers didn't necessarily get outplayed. They got out conditioned.

I certainly don't want to make an excuse for the Lakers. But do you think in offseason a couple more moves and now Luca and LeBron a full year together will make a difference? next year. I know we're running out of LeBron time. Like, you know, clock is ticking. Do you remember the narrative right after the trade happened? We heard a lot of, especially talking heads on TV, say, the Mavericks won this trade short term,

but the Lakers won this trade long term because they could build around Luca now. But then AD got hurt and people kind of forgot that take. And now we're at where we're at right now. But remember, a lot of people knew this team was incomplete because of defense, because of the lack of size going into the playoffs. and LeBron refused to talk about what they need moving forward because of the lack of size. Or his actual future.

Yeah, and his actual future. But yeah, it was sort of deflating, disappointing. Like, that was it. You guys can even get out of the first round. They couldn't win at home. One more game, nothing. And I mean, unless you're a Timberwolves fan, I'm happy for our boss who was there with his family.

I'm happy for him, not to kiss ass. But other than that, I was like, oh, man, I wanted to see it extend a little further than that. Show some fight. But I do believe that it had to do with the conditioning, Reg. We should have some contract talks today. Hey, based on that. Good mood.

Yeah, good point. Conditioning, Covino, and let's be honest, Redick, as much as he did a good job for his first year, because, you know, that's another thing. Think back to when the season started. Oh, what a joke of a higher. 19 wins for this guy. Watch.

You're doing a podcast last week now he's coaching. 50 win season. He did a great job in the regular season, especially with all the stuff that happened throughout the year. but he did get out coached in the playoffs, but he's a rookie coach. And LeBron spoke very highly. He said, you know, he can confirm that they have a great coach moving forward. And he was impressed for for his buddy and his first year coaching.

Now, based on that, though, Rich, right? Reddick calling out conditioning. To me, that's conditioning coaches, trainers, the players, they're eating habits, everything. They're not in championship shape. It's JJ Reddick. He's the coach. Does it matter who you get advice or criticism from? Yes.

because I think J.J. Reddick, I think the record shows that where he lacked in talent, no one ever questioned his conditioning, work ethic, and hustle on the court. So I think J.J. Reddick, it's not like he's some lazy slob saying, you know, my team needs to be more conditioned.

This is a guy that even as a coach is a guy that's in shape, you know, not far removed from the court, always a guy that seems very disciplined. I'll give you an example. I mentioned recently. You know, in fact, I'll save my analogy because it's a good one.

Uh-oh. And it has an analogy. And the analogy is calling out some people that are going to be very upset. So does it matter who you get criticism or constructive criticism or advice from? Does it matter who it's from is the question based on

JJ Reddick saying they need to condition better and they need to be in championship shape? Plus, what are the top 10 selling NFL jerseys after the draft? Draft was a week ago. What are the top 10 selling draft jerseys and old school win 50 hits? We have lots to get to today. More, Kavino and Rich. Next right here on Fox Sports Radio.

What's the news, Nick?

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. 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 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. And we were thinking, I'm originally calling it one of the, the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers was...

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,

And in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, I'm bringing over a decade of my own experience in the mental health field and conversations with so many incredible guests. I'm talking.

Tripp Fontaine, Ryan Clark. Sometimes when we're in the pursuit of the thing, we get so wrapped up in the chase that we don't realize that we are in possession of the thing. And we're still chasing it. And we don't know when we've done enough. Because people scoreboard watch. Life becomes about wins and losses. Steve Burns, Dustin Ross. Because you find it important to be a good person while you hear on earth.

or are you a good person because you're afraid? Because that's two different intentions, bro. Absolutely. And that's two different levels of trust. I want you to just really be a good person. Join me, Kear Gaines, is we have real conversations about healing, growth, fatherhood, pressure, and purpose

on my new podcast, learn the hard way. Open your free, I Heart Radio app. Search Learn the Hardway and listen now. Such is life, Rich. I know. Don't you wish that everything was just going good at the same time? I know. when the Mets are playing well,

Juan Soto stinks. And when Wants Soto's playing well, the Mets stink. I can't explain it. I have met fan friends that are like, man, Soto's been stinking. I'm like, yeah, they're in first place with the best record of baseball. That's just life, Rich.

Like you're having a great day, but your kids are miserable. Yeah. Or you come home, hey, honey, what's up? And she's in a bad mood. And then those days she comes home and she's feeling sexy. You're like, yeah, whatever. Get out of my face.

Can't just, can't it just go right? Can everything line up is what you're saying? Hey, we're Kavino and Rich broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. We have lots to get to in 18 minutes. Old school and 50 hits. You like that math, right?

Old school and 50 hits. We do it every Thursday. We throw it back and reminisce. And it involves cartoons. Okay? So we're going to talk about that. Because it's an anniversary today. The reason the reason Kavino brought up Soto was that the Mets who are like the

hottest team in baseball lost two in a row. But guess who finally got hot the last. two days. Juan Soto. Two home runs today. A couple hits yesterday. So Soto got hot. So your team would be better off without him.

That's the thing. Because there was a lot of speculation on his body language. Like he doesn't look happy. Well, the team, but the team's winning, man. Come on. It's just one of those, like, my dumb MET fan friends that were like, oh, come on, Soto. I'm like, who cares? He'll get hot eventually.

Who cares? Now, two games are on. Bet's loose. All right. Now, back to what we were discussing. the number is 87799 on Fox again hope you had a rocket's timber wolf sort of night some big games tonight nicks pistons nuggets clippers will be talking about it if not here on overpromised our bonus show Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page immediately after this show j jredic he's being scrutinized today

I mean deservingly he made some interesting moves but again his rookie season he did however say that it came down to conditioning they weren't in championship shape and I think that's such a great and obvious point but a really great point like if you're going to beat these younger teams too these anthony edwards like teams and rudy was playing his ass off last night you've got to be in tip top shape and it looked like they were gassed to play that's how you explain it second half though in game four covino NBA history in the playoffs nobody ever in the history of the NBA playoffs had ever had the same lineup play the entire second half. And there was a lot of scrutiny that he overextended LeBron the game before, right?

So it looked like they ran out of gas. It didn't look like they got outplayed. They were in it until the end because they ran out of gas. So championship shape, but is coming from the coach. It's coming from JJ Reddick. So my question to Rich and to the Fox Sports Radio Nation is, and to everybody, does it matter who the advice comes from or the scrutiny? or the criticism comes from because we live here in California, right, Rich?

And I hear a lot of people like, yeah, that crappy state you're in. And I'm like, have you ever been here? Then shut up. Because zip your zippy. It's pretty awesome. I don't want to hear about it. Like, you've never been here. Shut up.

Hey, do you ever come and visit me? No. So zip it. So to me, it does matter where it's coming from. If someone's never traveled and they're telling you about different places? I know. What, you read it in a magazine? Get out of my face.

It makes it. I've heard people be like, oh, I hear it's beautiful. I'm like, yeah, you hear, you've been there? So, you know, just based on that example, a lot of times it does matter to me where it's coming from. I don't want to hear your, I want to hear Anthony Bourdain's take on it. I want to hear how the food was from him, not from you because you heard. Could I, can I tell you, I think this is a no-brainer? Who it comes from is the only factor for me. In fact, I hate to be rude.

And that's why we make it clear. Hey, we're fans first, right? God, I hate to be rude. But. I have to go at you on one of these. Oh, boy. Why me? I mean, I'm throwing it all vague and throwing it.

Now you're coming at me. I got to come at you. All right, fine. When it comes from where the advice comes from, I'll save the one for you because you'll be insulted. Come at me, bro. You can come at me, bro. I don't care. If one of my broke friends.

I don't care what you say, because again, it's who is coming from. You think I care what you say? If one of my broke friends who lives in a beat-up apartment, yeah, starts telling me about a stock I should buy, My first thought is like, yeah, sorry, bro, you're not, you're not, you're, you're, you're, uh, you're not, you're, uh, you're not, you're not, you're not, you're not, you're not taking money advice and, and investing advice from my broke friend who lives in a, you know, beat up apartment. He lives in a shoe. Yeah, I got you. I once got a free training session at a new gym I signed up for.

And they're like, here's your personal trainer. I was in better shape than the trainer. I'm like, no, this ain't going to work. I need my trainer. But again, to be fair in this discussion. Right, based on JJ Reddick's criticism. He's the coach. Mike, who runs this place makes a good point.

You know, he shares words of wisdom all the time. Mike, who runs this place? That's why the old saying goes, those who can't teach, those who can't teach or coach. I don't know about that all the time. What about that? I'm just going to add in there for the fun of the discussion because, hey, maybe this guy has bad genetics and he's a little overweight, but he knows what he's talking about. No. If I go to a gym and pay for a personal trainer,

this guy better look like Dwayne the Rock Johnson with a shirt off. This guy better, he better look like ravishing Rick Rood in 1989. How about Sylvester Stallone in Rocky 4? Yeah, I'm not going to go to the gym and have some guy that looks like Charles Barkley tell me about my workout. Yeah, but look at these boxing trainers.

You think they're all like, they're all out of shape and old, but they know what they're talking about. I'm going to hit Danny Whitlam because I know he feels this way. Danny, back in your radio days when you were doing more hip-hop and music, when a program director would criticize some of the you did on air, and you're like, you're not even on air. Oh, yeah. If you knew how to be on air, why aren't you on air?

Do you know, he was our general manager at the time. He was a president of programming, and like once a month, he would air check us, our morning show. So he'd sit down with me and the other morning co-host, and he would critique us, right? So there was like a game we did on the air. and during the air check meeting he said ha ha he did this really wimpy giggle

he's like I love that after the meeting was over my co-host looked at me and he's like scratch it we're never doing that game again if he loves it yeah right again when you're when you're being critical or you're grading your hosts in radio it's called an air check and bosses go over

to things you talk about I respect the people that have been there done that no matter what the industry I'll give you a couple more examples just because I overly give examples. You could criticize that. No, that's fine. I mean, we're just speculating the JJ Reddick thing. I once had, and this, again, I don't mean to sound mean,

but I once had someone give me some parenting advice. Their kids were grown, but guess what? Their kids don't talk to them. I'm like, why am I going to take parenting advice from someone whose kids grown up to not want to talk to their parents? I was talking about how after baseball or softball practice, you know, once a week or every couple weeks, I'll bring my kids to McDonald's because they want a happy meal.

And someone on one of our listener pages was like, Oh boy. Oh, boy. You're lucky they didn't take the car on their own. Later, Dad. You're only seven. The criticism was like, man, I don't take my kids for fast food that much. I clicked on some of these profiles. And they, and a little chubby kids. A guy that looks like King Kong Bunty's telling me about health.

Oh, well, in all fairness. He looked like tugboats. Some guy that looks like Yokazuna. No, in all fairness, he looks like Bam Bam Biggola. Telling me about health and fitness. Oh, boy. And then I'll give you one more. Okay.

Just because I have to make fun of you. Sometimes, you know, we'll rave about a restaurant or a steakhouse. And the fact that you get your steak well done makes me think, I don't know if I can really trust your steakhouse analysis. Really? You want to go there? I can't. You want to go there? If you tell me.

Catchup, please. If you tell me. If you tell me. And this guy, the same guy who wants to tell me about his vacation destination, but never leaves resort. Fair. That's a fair one. You're going to tell me about that country. You've never seen it. You stayed at the resort the whole time. You saw the holiday inn. Yeah. You saw as one in the Ohio. Exactly. Can I tell you? It's a fair criticism. I'm only kidding.

No, it's a fair one. Hey, you know what? Look at that. But if Kavino says to me, bro, the filet was great and he got it butterfied, well done, and then dips it into sauce. It's charred. You know, I mean, I've got a lot of feedback, too, like the excuse of running out of gas is so soft too from today's perspective. Like what a soft excuse, the fact that you ran out of gas.

So your thoughts on that. You could think what you want. And it does sound kind of soft. Like you're supposed to be in championship shape. This is your job. But it does seem to be true. And it seems to be what happened in this series. Let's go to Dan Bayer for an update.

DB. What's going on, man? Dan never runs out of gas. This guy's always ready to roll. He always has gas. You guys, you know, I just had deja vu with Kavino and Rich. You want to completely separate. You've talked about this on the show before.

You ever go to a sporting event like a decade ago and still get stuff from that same team? Yes, I still get Washington National emails every day. Yes. I went to a Browns game in 2008, and I just got an email to download the official Browns mobile app today. So it's been 17 years. They really want you back. Yes, they do. You know what's even worse, though, Dan, is you've had 17 years to unsubscribe and you haven't.

Correct. Same with me. Same with me. Hey, look at my Browns emails. All right. Game 6 is tonight, Knicks and Pistons, Nuggets and Clippers.

Pistons try to stay alive there at home. Nicks up 3-2. Clippers trying to do the same at home in L.A. with the Nuggets up 3-2 in that series. You won't be seeing John Halliburton at any future Pacers playoff games. That's for the foreseeable future. The father of Tyrese Halliburton

will not be attending games after meeting with the Pacers' front office. He accepted the outcome, according to ESB. Pianas he was the one who taunted Janice and DeCompo following the Pacers win over the Bucs in Game 5 on Tuesday. Sons are making a change in the front office. GM James Jones is going to be reassigned

to a senior advisory role with the team with Phoenix promoting Vice President Brian Gregory to be their new general manager. Rodriguez has been scratched from the Kentucky Derby because of a foot bruise. The 12-to-1 favorite was slated to start from the four-post in the run for the roses

coming up on Saturday. Day baseball Rich's Mets fell to the Diamondbacks 4-2, the silver lining. Juan Soto, two home runs, solo shots in defeat. Reds beat the Cardinals 9-1. A's blank the Rangers 3-0. White Sox blinked the Brewers 8-0. Royals won in Tampa against the raise 8-2.

Cubs down the Pirates, 8-3. Twins and Guardians, it's been raining in Cleveland. They're in another rain delay tied up at 2 in the 8th. Guys, back to you. Thank you, D.B. Thanks, Dan. The best in the land. And we're going to get to your feedback and phone calls, plus old school when 50 hits

live from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. Rich, I thought of two more examples, and I'll get to them next. Sound good? Sounds great. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, Nick? 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. 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, 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.

Some gasoline. Burning that gasoline, audio sleep style. Look like the Lakers ran out of gas last night. They're not in championship shape. Now, if you cared about all your Vatoslocos, you would have played gasoline by Daddy Yankee. No, man, I care about all the turbonians from Turbonia. I'm on turbo every night on Sirius XM playing Hard Rock of the 90s and the zeros.

But I'm here every day. Speaking of zeros with this guy, Rich Davis. Kavino and. Rich, the greatest of all time. We're the goats of duos. How about that? There you go. Kvino and Rich.

We got Danny G. We got Iowa Sam. It's a whole team effort. DB is here. And Spot is... Where the hell is spot? Anyway. Spot is where the hell is...

We're live from the Fox Sports Radio Studios. And it's time for our tire rack play of the day. Right when the Lakers hit a couple of threes in the fourth quarter to make the game tight. Mike Conley Jr. answered. Right back. He answered right back. He answered right back.

Just like this. Crossed him up top of the key. Drifts left. Now attacks him to lane. Kick out Cotley in the corner three ball. He got it. Quarter pocket clutch. And that is the play where Minnesota, in my mind,

eliminated the Lakers four games to one, courtesy of KFAN, 100.3. And that is our Tyrek play of the day from a 14. years, Tyrax would helping customers find the right tires for how what and where they drive. Ship fast and free, back by Free Road hazard protection and the convenience of mobile tire installation. TireRack.com the way tire buying should be. And although I was rooting for the Lakers, I was happy to see the Timberwolves move on for the

city, for the franchise, for Edwards, and most of all, for our boss, because he's a big fan and I'm kissing ass. That's what I'm doing. Hey, I was Sam, I love the left Camino hanging first. That was two days in a row. They're so funny. I don't have it ready. Hey, sometimes the play of the day sneaks up on you.

It's all good. My pants are pulled down. I think it's Sam's lack of conditioning. Yeah, you know what it is? He was out of gas. You know, real quick, 20 second story. Sam, the worst time this ever happened to us, we were hosting an event in Mexico.

Picture this. It's Maxim. Remember when magazines mattered? It was Maxim Spring Break. What are those? Kavino and I are on a microphone in front of thousands of Spring Break students, giving away prizes and money and, you know, like hot body contest,

booty shaking contest. When we're done doing the contest, our job was to kick it back to the DJ. I remember his name too. DJ Rock City. DJ Rock. I'll never forget it because it was a nightmare. So we're done with this contest.

Crowd's going thus. We're like, yeah, we're Kavino and Rich. Maxim. DJ Rock City. Drop that beat. Crickets. Rock, Rock City. DJ Rock City.

Then he got thousands of spring breakers booing us. Boob! Rock City! We looked to. the DA. Mavino and Rich suck. Dude, they're throwing

T-shirts back at us. Again. Drop that beat. It was a nightmare. It was like those MTV spring break events. Danny, we turned to the DJ booth. The dude had run on a bathroom break. Yo,

we and Rich started doing a dance routine to try to like, entertain. It was so embarrassing. Kavino started to beatbox it like it was vanilla ice. Oh, so awkward. So anyway, before we move on. Look at the clock.

I do want to give, I know. I want to give you my two last examples, though, Rich, of, you know, when it matters. Does it matter where the advice comes from? Yeah. Because sometimes those who can't teach.

I think that applies in baseball. We see it all the time with coaches, right? So it's usually the catcher who wasn't that good, but he's a great leader and a great coach. Wasn't the best player. It happens all the time. So I think that we're wrong with our assumption. It's our attitude.

Like, what do you know about it? I guess so. Because maybe they know a lot, but we're wrong because we assume otherwise. But there are other cases. where I know I'm right. Because I don't want to hear marriage advice or relationship advice from you and I've never seen you in a relationship before. Ever.

Your buddy that's perpetually single. Or parental advice from a person without a kid. Scrammeling him a ding down. That's a good one. You know what? You can end it on those. In fact, look at the clock. We're running out time.

When 50 hits. There's a search. Yeah. What we're going to do right here is go back. Back into time. Throwing it back for a Thursday. Old school when 50 hits. At 50 after, CNNR give you the time capsule topic, and we reminisce together.

Yeah. All right, so we do this every Thursday. We get you involved, Fox Sports Radio Nation. So be dialing 87799 on Fox and at Covino and Rich. Now, this is a fun easy one. 26 years ago in 1999. Oh. SpongeBob.

I split my pants. Squarepants debut. So it was the debut of SpongeBob SquarePants. So with that, I ask you. what is the best adult cartoon? Not the little smutty things you see when you're looking up nonsense. I'm talking like, I'll give you my example. South Park.

Right? That might be number one. No, it's not. No, explain. All right. Well, your favorite adult cartoon will go old school next. Hey, guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers.
