week. Let's go. I love it. The C&R fun house, the C&R experience just as I thought of a new title of the show. I love it. Vino and Rich's Playhouse. Stevie's Playhouse. I'm Steve Covino. Welcome to my playhouse. That's Rich Davis.

Hey, buddies. I was Sam. Good to see you running things. Hey, where you guys been. Well, he's here. He's not running things. Mike is running things. Mike runs this place. We got Danny G. Mike who runs this place. Mike is here. Danny's here on the phones at 87799 on Fox. Jay Stu's hanging out because it's the place to be. Spotty's here.

DB's here. Thank you for being here. It's a part of it. Hope you had a nice weekend. Let's be rocking out. Now, we have lots to get to today. We're going to play a game called Last One Standing. We have prizes. It's good to be back, by the way. Last week, we were filling in for Dan Patrick and Colin Cowherd.

If you missed any of our shows, catch the podcast. They're all there. We had some great shows. And hopefully you didn't miss us too much. We're also talking about. being starstruck today. There's a story that O'Shea Jackson has. Do you know who O'Shea Jackson is?

He's the birthday boy. That's Ice Cube's son. Yeah. Starstruck. Maybe we'll talk a little Juan Soto, some baseball, some NFL, and more. But I started off by saying it's C&R's Playhouse. Doodoo. Kavino's just playhouse.

I do want to say, rest in peace to the most beautiful woman in puppet land, Miss Yvonne, who passed away over the weekend. Lynn Marie Stewart, 78 years old. Miss Yvonne. She was kind of hot. One of my first weekend crushes. Her and Miss Piggy. I used to watch her and Muppet Babies.

But Miss Yvonne passed away. Roberta Flack passed away. Got that news today. 88 years old. Killing me softly. You guys remember the Fuji's version? She had lots of hits. Bertha Flack 88.

You heard DB say Larry Dolan, Indians owner, 94 years old. Damn. He owned the Cleveland Indians since 2000. Now the Guardians, but since 2000, 94 years old, Larry Dolan. And Rich, a guy that we grew up knowing, I watched

him all the time on MSG Network. He covered the Yankees. A legendary broadcaster growing up on the East Coast being the Yankees fan and New York sports fan. Al Troutwig broadcaster passed away at 68 from cancer, which sucks. I was sad to hear that.

Coincidentally, the only other person of any note that went to my high school. One time, and I again watched him my whole life. I mean, the only person of that. Yeah, the only guy. The feeling you have when you see something like that, you sort of grow up with, you're like, oh, man, it sucks. You feel like you know people like that.

And he covered the Olympics. He covered lots of stuff. But I remember pulling up at a traffic light in New York City, and he was there. I was like, yo, Al Troutwick. And he was like super receptive to it and nice, but I always thought he was a great broadcaster. I was sad to hear that.

Yeah, rest and peace. Yeah, rest and peace to them. We rock out on their behalf. But let's get into it, man. Hope you had a nice weekend. Hope you had a Luca sort of weekend. A team Canada still celebrating on this Monday A sort of weekend. Who else had a big weekend?

Oh, Dimitri Bivel. And new light heavyweight champ at 175, Undisputed beat Arthur Better Biev. So Bivel won in the rematch, Rich. I saw Henry Suhudo got poked in the eyeballs. Dude, he got...

Like, yeah, you know what? It's like a Moly and Curley move. He got the Three Stooges move. He has to throw a hand up like curly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Why you get over here. He got poked in the eye by song, poked him in the eye,

and he couldn't go back out. And at first, for me, I was like, come on, dude. But it turns out his eye was really, damaged and they need to adjust those rules. You know, is taken out. So I hope you had a, let's just say Bivel, not a Sehudo sort of weekend. Hope you enjoyed your sports. Hope you all your

teams won and now let the Wild Rumpus start. I had a deep thought to start today's seeing our experience. Let's go. The big news that broke last week and oddly enough we must be so synonymous with this stupid story that we're getting hit up left and right.

You guys called it. You guys love talking about this. The Yankees who have decided to ease up their facial hair policy. I can't believe how nerdy some people are about it though. Like, I don't know, man. That's what made the Yankees, the Yankees. Stupid. Even you were like, all right, it's about time.

Yeah, even me. Like, I believe in tradition, but now was the time to make that change. As 2025 people are just rocking a different look. I thought it was a corny sort of thing to, a corny hill to die on. Nope, that's what the Yankees do. That's what they stand for. Stupid, man.

You and I talked about Devin Williams, and apparently he was the straw that broke the camel's back. Apparently, young Latino player comes over to the Yankees, a closer who talked openly about how, man, I haven't shaved my face in years. I don't feel very confident. And there were team meetings, and I believe, from what I'm reading, Devin Williams was the catalyst. Well, they paid him to be an intimidation factor to close.

the game. Not very intimidating when you make them look like a weenie. And he in turn loses some confidence. So the Yankees have changed their facial hair policy. And I think there is a golden opportunity now. Hear me up. Who wants an endorsement? Give me a Yankee that you think would be a good

spokesman. Who's got some personality? That's a tough one. No. I would say jazz chishol. Oh, yeah. Okay, this is a good one. It's a fun guy. What a jazz chisholm? colorful guy. What if Jazz Chisholm

pops up on the screen. He's like, hey everyone, jazz chisholm here. As you might have heard, we don't need to shave anymore. But that doesn't mean I don't shave at all. And he's a new spokesman for like Manscape. There's the Yankees. How is

someone not going to cash in on some deal to be the face of all those manscaping products you constantly say? Oh, no, I think they should cash in on it. I'm all for it. Progressive Steve is what they're calling me. I'm willing to adjust to change.

And maybe that's where we kick this off because it wasn't the only change. I think it's one of the greatest acquisitions that the Yankees made in the off season, facial hair. And the ladies love it too. The ladies love it too. Facial hair. I think it's good. But I am surprised, much like most things in this world, were split down the middle. Half time was great.

Half time sucked. Kendrick Lamar is awesome. Who the hell is that? Political views. everything. I would say it's about 60, 40. 60% of my Yankees friends and fans, and if you just go on social media, are like, yo, that's great, about time. I'll give you another one. 40% are being nerdy about it. I'll give you another one. If you've seen in some of the spring training highlights so far, Danny G, you know what it means now. What does tap it on your helmet mean?

Review the pitch call. Yes, sir. Ball strikes. Now, are you four or against that? Because My friends are 50-50 on this. Danny, I like it. Yeah, I guess just got to get used to it. Yeah, I mean, they got to figure it out what we're doing right now. You're only allowed to do it a couple times a game. So I think the simple fact that... So your boy, Polar Bear Pete doing it this weekend.

Yeah, I saw that. And it was a strike three. And he's like, da-b-b-b-ba-tap, tap. They said, no, that was low and inside. You were right. He's back in the batters box. Now, I think because you still get the umpire human element in there. Yeah, and you can't challenge it all the time.

It's, I believe, two times a game? Like I said, they're ironing those things out. And they're not going to do it this year, but I think the fact that they're experimenting just proves your point that people are polarized on these topics. I think if it's two times a game, if every a bat you have the guy being like, hold on top, tap, tap on my head.

Two times a game in key moments, because nothing's worse than you got a guy up, rudders on base. You're like, he got called out on that pitch. That's the worst. But you got to be right. You want to get it right. Tap, tap, taparoo.

You don't want to slow down the game. We've made some improvements by speeding it up. But if we can make it better, I'm all for it. And again, that's why they're calling me, progressive Steve. I don't know. Who is calling you that? Everybody, dude. Progressive Steve.

Because usually I'm here, Danny. I don't know anyone. Passive progressive. What about flow? No, because everyone usually, you know, thinks I'm some sort of stick in the, mud that's sort of old school and doesn't like change but man I've been on a

streak lately. Hey Steve. There's a new one I'm going to tell you about but I want to remind you too that we're broadcasting live from the tire rack.com studio. Tyrax.com will help you get there and unmatched selection, fast free shipping, free road hazard protection over 10,000 recommended installers. Tireack.com the way tire buying should be.

See, I used to like to go to the tire shop and pick them out but not anymore. Progressive Steve goes to Tirec.com. So what else makes you progressive Steve. Oh, the fact that you would with Flo? I would not with flow. Speak for yourself. Projector pants.

Maybe you would. Projector What? You're projecting on me. Flow. I thought he had a projector in his pants. Maybe you got the hots for Flo. She's a good woman. So why are you progressive Steve? All right. Because you're okay with the Yankees' facial hair. Yeah, but, and there's more to this. Yankees made another announcement over the weekend.

And you would think. Something else we heard you. Yeah, but you would think that me and other non-progressive people for the most part would be mad about this but not me you would think that Kavino has the ear of Hal Steinbrenner no joke right no I'm all for this I feel like Steinbrenner's on the elliptical

during our show so check this I wouldn't be shocked Calzone's with him every day like George Cassand he's listening to me when I was a kid growing up and I'd go to some Yankee games the few times a year my dad would take me because he barely did but when I was a teenager and I started to go on my own

there was a tradition and the tradition was when the Yankees win the Yankees win little Steve would celebrate and they would play New York New York by Frank Sinatra Start spreading

the news and it just gave you that cool New York vibe you're walking out high-fiving strangers yeah nice win and then when they lost this is when I was a kid I don't know how long this lasted

but I promise you this is what it was they would play the Liza Minnelli, the weak-ass version of New York and New York. That's a good version. It's not Frank Sinatra. It's not all blue-wise. So if they lost, they would play her weekends. So they played the broke version during losses. You know, I don't know how true that is, but Kavino's said it enough that in my mind,

I'm like, oh, yeah, of course. When the Yankees lost, they played Liza Monelli. It's true. Yeah, it's a fact. We think I'm making it up. But somewhere along the lines, right, years went on, they would play regardless winner loss, they would end it with old blue eyes, Frank Sinatra's, New York,

New York. And to me that never vibed. I'm like, why are you giving me the old blue eyes when we just lost? It's not the same when the Yankees lose, duh, Yankees lose, and you're walking out and they're playing this grand, awesome song about New York. Hey, I would say, him, cue up the Sinatra,

New York, New York, because picture you as a kid, if you're a Yankees fan, which I'm not, he is. But if the Yankees win, strike three game over. The legend of John Sterling's saying, the Yankees win. It makes sense to hear.

You hear those horns. New York, New York, New York. You're like, yeah, start spreading the news. That's a good feeling. So that's synonymous with winning. And all of a sudden, when the Yankees lose, they also play that, but not anymore because they're changing it.

And progressive Steve is all about it. Guess what they're doing now? Instead of playing Frank Sinatra when they lose, They're going to play Fat Joe. They should. That would be so good because it's synonymous with losing. No, but they're actually going to play another Frank Sinatra song. Rich said in other articles they're going to rotate it, but the main headline is they're going to play, that's life.

That's what the people say. Another blue-eyed-eye song, but it's more fitting for, hey, they lost. Oh, that's life. And, you know, you walk out the stadium with your hands in your pockets. That's not. Shrugging at people. Hey, what are you going to do? We'll get them tomorrow, you know?

Pinch stripes. Oh, oh, oh, oh. There is. And I'm all for it. All the Yankees lost to the Red Sox. Oh, well. That's live. People say.

Is it this more fitting to a loss? It's just, eh, what are you going to do, right? So you're telling me, what are you going to do? We'll get him tomorrow. Shut down in May. So you tell me the Yankees are two for two when it comes to progressive moves. Dude. The stiffest organization in sports.

Back on top. I still think lean back would be better. That's really funny, Danny. But I think it's a solid move. And believe it or not, people are complaining about that, too. I'm like, you're still getting Sinatra, you dorks. And why play New York, New York when they lost? That's life is a great way to walk out the stadium and be like, ah, shucks.

Yeah, yeah, I guess, I guess Garrett Cole had a bad one today. Like the Yankees, that's just your team. Think of other franchises. Danny G., living out here in L.A., you know, I'll go. a couple Dodgers games each year, even if they're not playing the Mets just to go check out a ball game. When the Dodgers win and they hit, we love L.A. feels good. Imagine they played that when the Dodgers lost. They wouldn't feel right. No. Yeah. So to me, it was a perfect change. Progressive Steve approves. What are your thoughts? Now, based on that, I started thinking about

myself and I'm like, am I changing, man? Am I changing? Am I just like easy going progressive Steve now? And then I started thinking about, well, you know what, I've been progressive about a lot of things. Not everything. But, you know, you pick and choose your battles. So here's the question for the Kavino-N-rich Fox Sports Radio Nation. What changes in sports and life have you welcomed with open arms? Can I give you one, bro, just to really kick it off because I'm really passionate about this one. And can I just say, I know it probably brings up bad memories for you, but I was Sam.

If you have the Randy Newman, I love L.A., I feel like the guy at the stadium, hit that song before Freddie Freeman even hit first base on that Grand Slam in the World Series because in my mind I'm like the minute he hit it, this song turned on. Yeah, again, it's about winning, right? So yeah, you water down the Yankees, New York, New York when you're playing it when they lose. Remember it was like, Gibby meet Freddy? You have that great call from Joe Davis? Yeah, this is a winning song.

You don't play it when they lose. Do they play anything when the Dodgers lose, Danny? Yeah, just background music. I don't think it's any certain song. It makes sense, right? After a loss. This is a joyful, uplifting song. Right, right, right.

Of course, I'll double check that. Covino. I haven't been to the Dodgers Stadium since they raised all the prices. Well, Danny, I was going to say, 81 home games with the Dodgers roster this year. They'll have to find a losing song like nine times. Yeah, exactly. You don't have to play it all that often.

Now, as far as other progressive things that you think back on you, you know what, that was a good change, and I rolled with it. I'm glad I did. It could be sports related, could be life related. Hit us now, let's get involved, get the week going at 87799 on Fox at Covino and Rich. This may sound corny. But at first, you were like, huh, I don't know if I'm ready to make this change. I sort of leaned into it, and I never looked back.

I'm so glad I did. And you're going to say, what? That's corny, but it's not. Because I think you're corny if you're still holding on. And that is stretchy material jeans. stretchy jeans I can't argue you bro at first I'm like

what is this like pajama jeans no no no it's just stretchy material stretchy denim I agree with him I will not wear a pair of jeans now they feel like cardboard I would never wear a pair of like cardboard denim Levi's anymore that's 100% pure cotton denim is pure cotton so am I working

in a coal mine somewhere I don't need that going back to the original Levi's right exactly I'm not painting for gold somewhere it doesn't breathe very well I prefer there's gold in there's gold them in our hills. Well, you know what? It's funny because they find old Levi's in all these old old minds. Right, right, right. I've seen those.

Yeah, they're worth a lot of money, but it's the original denim and is stiff as a board. I really enjoy stretchy denim. It's the best. I wear them all the time. I love how. I love how. It's got your polyesters in there, your rayons. You know what I love? Progressive Steve gives it two thumbs up. I love that that is the

first, I love that that's the first example you think of. Who doesn't like to be comfortable? You kidding me? The first thing you'd want do when you got home from work or anywhere take off those horrible cardboard jeans you would wear. I can't disagree with Kavino. If you are someone that wears jeans, the minute

you go to that material that's a little stretchy, you're not wearing old cardboard, hard-ass denim again. Just a little stretch, that's all. Just a little not pajama stretch. Just a little denim stretch. But any other things that come to mind at progressive side of you said,

you know what? That was a good change, man. I love it. As far as rules, go? I've always been one to embrace rules. And when baseball said, hey, we're going to speed up the game a little bit. Old heads were like, yeah, you're ruining the game. It's like, no, I'll be honest, you have a manageable two and a half

hour game now. It's fantastic. It was good. I was all for again, like, at least seeing how it worked out. Let's see how it works out. Because that's what's really dragging the game on, as Michael K would say, an unmanageable three and a half hour game. Like, come.

Come on. It took up your whole day. So other things in life that you're glad you accepted because it made things better. What are those to you? 87799 on Fox. We've got a lot to get to today. Some NFL, baseball is right around the corner. Rich, are you a QR code guy or do you want a full-on menu? That's a good question.

I'm okay with it now, but I'll tell you this. In the beginning, I was the guy that's like, give me a damn menu. But now I'm like, I can scroll my phone. Can I tell you one that I finally made the change and I'm so glad I did? Dude, I was so reluctant with like ordering on the apps, like I say Starbucks. He'd wait in line. I'd rather, I'm like, I'm not ordering on an app. I don't know.

Now it's like the progressive Steve says, you know what? I'm going to give it a try. So glad I did. Change my life. If there's a Starbucks that for some reason like, yeah, we have no mobile ordering today. I'm like, well, I guess I'm not going there. the idea of waiting in line for food now? That's for the birds and for old guys.

We worked next to an El Pollo loco. I would order, go pick it up. I'd see Kavino standing there waiting. I'm like what are doing? Sam, I feel like you're old sticking them wet in a lot of it. I do wait. It doesn't take very long now. That's the thing.

I guess we'll take zero time, Sam. The app. Sam's such an old soul. Got a swing in my step in a nickel in my pocket. Doodoo-l-de-l-l-d-d-d-d-d-d-do-do-do-do. I like to order at the kiosk. And then I sit and I read my- phone.

But for what reason? Because I'd rather order from the kiosk. You just wasted a phone. No, no, no, no. Tiny kiosk. Sam waits in line while listening to big band music by Glenn Mills. Right. Rich, remember that time you were trying to mix your own drink at Buffalo Wild Wings?

I was so aggravated. From the QR code. Yeah, they were like, yes, sir, the drink venues on the QR code. And I had to construct like a Moscow mule. I'm like, this is not my job. I'm like, all right, customized. Customize add-on, add-on. One part ginger beer, one part tito.

I'm like, what am I do? Yeah, Rich was like, rich was a digital bartender. Yeah, no thanks. I'll give you one. I'm the team, you know, the manager coach of my daughter's team. And, you know, you have to do expenses, like shack tax, you know, snack shack tickets and team expenses. I had a parent the other day, hand me like 40 bucks or something. I'm like, what are you doing?

Dude, seriously? Just spend mo me, zel me. Doing a drug deal? I'm like, now I'm like, now I got $40 in my pocket. What are we? Bro. I got a, yeah, if you don't have Venmo, I don't want to be your friend. Or even Zell.

Or Zell. Yeah, like, that's so key and so clutch. That's been one of the best progressive moves. He'll take PayPal. Danny, like, we put out a message to the parents. Like, you know, for opening day, the girl's little extra uniforms and sunglasses and all their little dude gives you a 40 bucks out of his sock all crumbled up. I see the Venmo's coming in.

Like, oh, the parents are giving me the 40 bucks. One parent's like, here's 40 bucks. A 20, a 10, a 5 and 5 singles crumpled up. I'm like, oh, my God. Here's 160 quarters. Yeah, that's a good one. I can do laundry for months. That's a good one, though, Rich.

That's one of my favorite ones for sure. But again, in sports, in life, progressive moves that I think we're all benefiting from or you're surprised you actually like. And the funny thing is for a lot of these, you got to chime in with the, at first I was resistant. Right. At first you were resistant. And then you accepted it, like you said, in the world of sports, life will take your feedback next.

I'll bet you a parameda apostle chin here you do. So let's talk about it. Join me on my new podcast. How hard can it be with Deanna Maria Riva, where I call on my Gen X squads from Ohio to Hollywood as we navigate midlife's most fantastic BS. All of a sudden, I'd had hanginess happening on my own. I was like, what the hell is that? I was married when I had her, so I didn't even consider how empty that nest was going to be. Mood swings, night sweats, fupas, sex drive.

Wait, what sex? Dating at 45. How high can it be getting naked at 50 with a new guy? That one's kind of hard, you know? Well, that's lighting. They say we can't polish a turd, but we're sure going to try. So let's get blunt with laughs, tears, or tears of laughter, and dive into it, unfiltered and unbothered and ask, how hard can it be? I cannot believe I'm about to say this out loud in public. Listen to How Hard Can It Be with Diana Maria Riva as part of my Cultura podcast network available on the IHart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Oh, yeah. I was Sam on the On the Ons and Two! Hey, Steve. Big Apple Sam! Hey, Steve. Sam's on the On Ons and Twos. We got Super Producer Danny G. Getting ready for Last One Standing.

We're playing Last One Standing later in the show. show, your chance to win some prizes. 87799 on Fox. It's good to be back. Nice regular week for us. Back at a regular spot. I'll be honest. Any of our shows last week, catch them on the podcast. We filled in for Dan Patrick and the herd. It's always an honor to fill

them for those guys. It's great for our show and it's fun for us and you guys to have us on at a different time. And be sure to check out Fox Sports Radio's YouTube channel. Search Fox Sports Radio on YouTube and you'll see a whole bunch of video highlights from our shows. Be sure to subscribe and never miss our best of

and all the videos on Fox Sports Radio, YouTube, and podcast. Check us out. Again, I'm Steve Kavino. That is Rich Davis. And surprisingly, I'm all about, like, I'm seeing a lot of my friends bicker about the shaving rule. Yankees should shave. We don't want to be like other organizations. That's what separates us. It's like, no, how about you just win and shut up and let them do what they want? And it's well-groomed beards. I keep needing to remind all my friends, well-groomed be interesting to see how they monitor that. Like what's that a two-clip?

Like what is that? But you just can't like a slob like the 2013 Fear the Beard Red Sucks. And then they just announced over the weekend that they're not going to play New York New York Frank Sinatra when they lose. They're going to play That's Life and maybe a rotation of other songs

when they lose. And again, you would think I didn't like that, but I do like that. I think that's a great move. So that got us thinking about other progressive things or things you were progressive on and you liked the move. At first, maybe you didn't. At first you were afraid you were petrified. But then you realized

that you liked the move. For me, another one, Rich, before we get into the phone calls, aside from stretchy jeans. That's your number one answer. Yeah, because in life, I'll never go back, man. Because at first I felt like I felt like a weenie. Like, what am I wearing yoga pants? What are these?

They're not tight as much as they're just, they have a little give. Yeah, oh. Then if you wear old school jeans, you're like, These are uncons. Yeah. So again, I'm glad I took that, that chance. But another one is, when they first came out, I'm like, that's corny. And that's City Connect jerseys.

The City connects because old school traditional Yankee guy, I was like, I don't like it. And now as a Yankees fan, I wish they would make that move. Give the fans another option. You're not messing with the pinstripes or their tradition. It's just an alternate that everybody's doing. It's for the fans. It's for fun. the city connects.

I love your Mets ones, Rich. I think they're great. And, you know, I think the reminder is you got to be a little more open to things. Not everything's going to work out, but you got to be a little more open. Sometimes I'm too open to change because a lot of times I feel like, we need to freshen things up. I'm an impatient type of guy. For instance, there are people that I remember they were bitching and complaining when

they started doing Thursday night football. And anytime the NFL adds a game, like the Black Friday game or, oh, we're going to add another play. playoff team. I've always been pretty receptive to those, but in baseball, I think the best change, and I know people resisted it, but when you have a hundred and sixty two

game schedule, keep in mind, we're going to start within a month baseball, and that goes until October. When they didn't have wild cards and it was like, division winners, and that's it, your fan bases would be checked out by the All-Star game. The fact that

I know it prolongs the playoffs and not always the best team moves along, but The fact that they have multiple wild cards and it keeps fan bases interested, I feel like baseball's made more wise decision than weak ones. Absolutely. It keeps people invested way longer. So any other changes that come to mind where at first you were unsure about it, but it worked out for the better in sports, in life.

Let's wrap it up where your calls at 87799 on Fox. 877 99 on Fox. We got Tom and Portland. What's up, Tommy? Hey. What's up, my boys? How goes it? What's up, buddy?

Hey, so some I resisted really, really bad. Crocs. You know, you think that they look ugly. They're horrendous. They can't be comfortable. They're just rubber, whatever. I put off wearing crocs until this year. I just bought the pairs.

You know, let me tell you, you shouldn't be rocking them everywhere, but I will... The problem with Crocs... I can't do it, man. Tom, here's the problem. The problem is crocs are. comfortable and you start out by saying you know, I'll wear them when I do yard work. I'll wear them when I'm in the, you know,

tinker with my car or something. And then it's, all right, I'll wear them to the coffee shop. Even yard work, that's dangerous until you drop a garden weasel on your toe or, you know, you hedge clip your big toe off because you're wearing stupid rubber shoes. They're the gateway drug to sloppiness. I don't know. I can't do it. That's the best way to put it.

Crocs of the gateway drug to lazy sloppiness. They're the gateway to wearing pajama pants when you're out and about. I don't know, man. I know they're comfortable, and I know that everybody's on them, and I know that people wear them love them. Yeah, I'll wear them for my kids drop off at school this morning. And then you're like, how I'm wearing crocs to school drop off? Oh, I don't know.

I'm still reluctant. I know how comfortable they are. Of course I've tried them on. But it's still a great answer because I know that so many people love them. I just can't get behind it. What? Thank you, Tom. What were you reluctant to accept, but you adjusted and you said, you know what?

I'm okay with it now. I got one for you. You're not even thinking about it. When I first met Kavino, this guy would mock me when I talked about how whoever I was dating at the time, like, yeah, we watched, you know, and I would name like a reality show. He would bust my Juevos nonstop.

And this is the guy that with his girlfriend watches everything from Vanderpump to the bachelor to love his blind to anything. I mean, she watches it. Oh, okay, you're just there for the ride. Yeah, I'm just, you know. Reality TV. Yeah, but. They didn't change anything to make me like it.

I just was always reluctant. I guess I just made the change. You made a change. You embraced it. Progressive Steve. Let's go to Randy in Pennsylvania. What's up, Randy? Hey, doing well.

How are you guys doing? Oh, how you doing? How are you doing? I am, for the longest time I was afraid to do like the face ID on my phone because I was thinking Big Brother is going to now have my face ID. Track me everywhere. But you know what? He's already doing that.

So it was just like just accept it and go along with it. And now I can't even get into my bank unless I have the face ID because I forgot my long password. Hey, Randy, you ever have like a really hungover or ugly day or you're just looking really shaggy and like it's not recognizing you? So you start feeling bad about it. Your phone's like you look like garbage. I'm like, I'm not even acknowledging you. How much weight did I gain in one night? How many beers did I have?

How bloated am I? I know. It's the worst. I'm like, it's me. Loser. Jessica. It's me, phone. Nope.

Well, I am all for the new Yankee moves, and that got us thinking. But honestly, what it does is it remind you, in sports, in life, there's going to be changes. It's whether or not you want to embrace it, if you want to be resistant. A lot of it is app-related, rich, for me. Like, I now make my haircut appointments via the app where I was not into doing that at all. You stop? I want to show up and get a haircut. Can you know, stop going to our barber, who's really good.

We used to go to the same barber. Scandal? Scandal, no. Our buddy Addison, Addy, who works here in the Valley. He's popular. And I bring that up because if you want a haircut, about a week and a half out, you got to go on his app and reserve a time. With this guy, you have to do it like two weeks ahead of time.

I still make mine, but like for the next day, right? Or like two days later. It's not easy, man. You got to adjust. So be progressive. Well, we have a few more phone calls. Oh, that's great. Let's go up at this.

Let's go to Dan Beyer. Yeah. We'll get an update. We'll come back and wrap up these calls and move along. What's up, DB? Good to see you. Guys, good to see you. I have warmed to the Guardian's nickname as opposed to the previous one.

Not as much with the commanders and what they've changed. I don't know how many people love commanders, but that's sticking around. But the fact that Guardians and, as you mentioned earlier, Indians, it's Deans at the end. It's just changing the first part. It's true. I'll be honest. I'll be honest, the Guardians one feels more natural. I still have an instinct to be like, Washington Risk.

I'm sorry, Commanders. Guardians, I feel like I'm already adjusted. Unless I'm watching Major League with Wild Thing Rick Vaughn. They're the Guardians already. Yeah, absolutely. Green Bay Packers submitted a proposal to ban the tush push play. That's according to a report from the Athletic. There was some mystery surrounding on what team it was that submitted this proposal

as the NFL network broke the news. And an unnamed team was the one who wanted to do away with the tush push. It then was revealed by the Athletic that it's the Packers. Competition Committee will discuss. they could send it to the league for full review at the league owner's meetings coming up at the end of March. Boise State running back, Ashton Gentie will not work out at the combine this week, and neither will Penn State defensive end, Abdul Carter. He's not going to test as he recovers from a shoulder injury suffered in their win over Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl in the college football playoffs. Guardian's owner, Larry Dolan passed away at the age of 94.

You guys mentioned this as well. Longtime sportscaster Al Troutwig died at the age of 68. Joellen Beat out tonight for the 76ers against the Bulls, Clippers, one of Kauai Leonard or Norman Powell when they face the Pistons. Thunder Center, Chad Holmgren, out against Minnesota. College basketball, Kansas has dropped out of the top 25 in the AP. Men's College Hoops Poll, Auburn, the unanimous number one. Texas, the new number one in the women's poll.

Utah today fired Ed Coach Craig Smith. Back to you guys. Yeah, speaking of adjusting DB, you brought up some college sports. College football playoff. Are you used to that now, or are you still like, Oh, man. Still getting used to it, but since Ohio State won, I love it. It was magnificent.

What a great change. I also will say this, quickly, golf. I never liked music being played. And now people would bring their Bluetooth speakers and play it used to annoy me. Now you go to clubs. They have built-in speakers where you can plug in your phone and play it. It's become much more normal when you're casually playing of just playing tunes throughout the ride. I love that.

That's great. Based on that, I also think going to stadiums, I don't know. why? Why would you not want more options? But when stadiums and arenas would start doing all this gourmet food, I'm like, we don't need all this hamburgers, hot dogs, beer, soda, what are we doing, trying to be fancy? Now I go to a game and I'm like, where's the gourmet food?

Like now you go to city field and you're like, oh, shake shack. Oh, the good Italian place. You go get sushi. I have the savić. I think it's okay to have classy food at a stadium. We can wrap it up with Ray in Jersey. What's up, Ray? You're on. C.N.R. Yeah. My thing was the designated hitter. Ooh, good one.

Yeah, I was like, wait a minute. We're going to take guys who can no longer play. We're going to give them a bat. And now they can play for another five years. Yeah, that's a great example, Ray, because as a National League fan, as a Mets fan, I was the guy that's a pitcher hitting strategy, all that. A couple years later, who cares? You were. You were the guys that sort of leaned in.

the fact that the NL still did it, the old school way. You know what? To be honest, when you're trying to be interested in baseball, who wants one out of the nine guys to be an automatic out? Not me. All right. So thank you guys. And way to go, Yankees, finally making some positive moves forward. And we still got to play last one standing and talk about being starstruck and more. All coming up.

Kavino and 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. 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. And we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of 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, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some

So let's talk about it. Join me on my new podcast. How hard can it be with Deanna Maria Riva, where I call on my Gen X squads from Ohio to Hollywood as we navigate midlife's most fantastic BS.

and then I think someone that doesn't get enough credit. I want to pay tribute to someone today. Who, LeBron James? Well, according to Wembe, he doesn't get enough credit, right? Wembe Yama says he's underrated. Well, it's a bummer that we lose Wembe for the rest of the year, but I think that's just a reflection of us being, we've had a LeBron for so long that we don't think we appreciate him, to be honest.

Quickie story over the weekend. It was a great dad weekend for me. My kids both started baseball and softball. and I think I speak on behalf of a lot of parents out there, there's no more joy than watching your kids play sports, especially if you coach. Like, I actually feel like, sounds corny. I feel like I was meant to coach.

I really do. I feel like when I'm teaching those kids and, you know, you just, there's something about it that's just so much fun. And if you want a great show to watch your kids on Disney Plus, safe or out, is that what it's called? No, win or lose. Win or lose. It's an animated series from the creation.

of Inside Out. Yeah, we've been watching this with COA. Dude, it's so good, dude. It's so good. It's called Win or Lose, Creators of Inside Out, and it's eight episodes. They only have three out as of this week, but each episode is from a different person's perspective,

like the kid playing literally episode two is about the umpire. And it's, you know, dealing with emotions and winning and losing as a kid in sports. So it's a series. It's a series, yeah. Pretty cool, man. Great family watch. How about I'll say that.

A great family watch. Rich, you know what, we used to say that the University of Iowa, win or lose, but then we'd follow it up with win or lose, we still booze. You know what? I think that's also a good motto for life, right? I think that's the motto of a lot of grown men softball teams, too. Sure. So I'm coaching my kids this weekend.

And just a funny moment, because we all have those stories when we were little. My son plays his first tee ball game, pony league out here in L.A. My dude Jeff Soupon, former big league pitcher. He's the commissioner of the league. He runs everything. Great guy. my son's first at bat Danny Jay no kid

has hit off the pitching machine they get three swings off the pitching machine and then they bring out the T for T-ball and this is not like underhand to the kids this is from the mound like pitching machine like they want to start them is it the George Michael's pitching machine

shut up I heard that one's the best some like slingshot thing actually no I know that that's that's what they do when the kids are little to get them used to everything so on the second swing my son the first one to make contact.

And it's like a good ground ball to the left side. Everyone cheers so loud for him. Like, oh my God. Halfway down the first base line. I'm like, run, buddy, run. He just stops in place and starts crying because he's so overwhelmed by everyone, you know, everyone cheering. Spotlight got too high.

I was like, dude. It's also a reminder of how little these kids are and you're like trying to yell at them to run. Then the funny part is the first kid of the game. Hustle kid, come on. The first kid of the game hits off the T runs to third base instead of first. So when you're that age, it's just so much fun. So hopefully other people are enjoying this mom and dad life of coaching. But you're right.

You nailed it. It's going to be one of those things. No matter how old Benny Boy is. Benny the Jet, they call him, right? Yeah. Little Benny Soto hitting bombs. Your first at bat. Yeah, first that bat hitting bombs like Juan Soto.

You're going to tell the story at his wedding. That's what I'm saying. Remember his first time. He was the first kid and he stopped midway at first and wouldn't run and cried. They cried. carry him to first and that's our Benny boy and look at him now he's getting married there there a little dad life uh thrown in there it's like those stories that your mom tells a million times every parent has their go-to stories and i feel like i may have fell one you know my mom says

still to this day stephen used to love Rick Astley like I never loved Rick Astley I've been maybe one time she's like remember you were about 12 and you were singing it like do you mean the one time you heard me sing it and she still tells that story I thought you were going to say she's says in or out. Yeah, no, no, no. But like when it comes to stories about me, yeah, she always, you know, they bring up the same ones and that's one Rich will bring out for the rest of his son's life. So enjoy your spring sports starting.

Nothing more exciting than the start of baseball when basketball and hockey are heating up. And of course, you think the NFL should be in the rear view, but now we're getting ready for where some of these quarterbacks are going, the NFL draft. The combine, the draft, all this is ahead of us. So the world of sports never stops. Now, while you're watching sports, let me give you a question. trivia and I'll give you the answer when we come back. I want you to tell me, if we go to the bar, if we go to Buffalo Wild Wings,

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.
