This is an IHeart podcast. Guaranteed Human. Hey guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas.

We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know, tired and sick. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you.

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. Me and hilarious guests from Bob Odenkirk to David Letterman help make you funnier. This week, my guest, SNL's Mikey Day and head writer Streeter Seidel, help an a cappella band with their between songs banter. Where does your group perform? We do some retirement homes. Those people are starving for banter. Listen to humor me with Robert Smigel and friends on the ice. Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

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. Hey, what's good, y'all? You're listening to Learn the Hard Way with your favorite therapist and host Keer Games. This space is about black men's experiences, having honest conversations that it's really not safe to have anywhere, but you're having them with a licensed professional who knows what he's doing. How many men carry a suit or armor. It signals to the world that you're not to be played with. And just because you have the capability that does not mean that you need to. Listen and learn the hard way on the AHA radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcast.

Oh, Rich just texted. He's in the Dolewhip line.

Oh, there he is. I love Dolewit? And by the way, now I'm jealous. I love Dolewip? Oh, what? I'm not a huge, like, pineapple fan. So, full disclosure, I've never had it because I don't love pineapple.

But I don't like the texture of pineapple. It's not pineapple. It's like ice cream, but it's whipped. But it's pineapple. But it tastes like... Yeah, but it's not the same texture as pineapple. Do you hate the texture of pineapple or do you hate the taste of pineapple? I think I do. Like, I just don't have anything pineapple because I know I don't like it, but maybe I will. I don't know. You never drink those little cans of dole, pineapple juice?

They're like 80 cents still. Probably full of chemicals. I mean, it's awesome. I mean, like, dough whip, but you don't like pineapple? I don't like, I think it's the texture. Of all the fruits? It's a great flavor. I don't like the texture. I don't like biting into it.

Is there anything better than fresh pineapple with a little tahine? No, I don't like the texture. Do you know they call me tahino-covino? Tihino-covino. Because I love me some pineapple with the tahin. Anyway, I also want to let you know about tractor supply. Tractor supply knows that a winning season takes practice teamwork and a can-do attitude.

Thanks to Tractor Supply.

Thank you, Tractor Supply. And thank you guys for being here and putting up with me. Yeah, I mean, spot, there's thousands in the overall pool. No, I meant in the host. Yeah, there's like 30 in the host. When you say overall, do you mean the overalls I'm wearing when I'm on Tractor Supply.com? Thank you. Give them a rim shot.

Thank you. That didn't take long. Appreciate it. I'll tell you what. Not looking dull whip. While Rich is on the teacups, would you say he's in the dull whip line? No, he's in the adult whip line. When he is on all these rides in Disneyland, maybe he's just in the whip.

I wish him a great day. He's there with his family. But I'll tell you what, you know what I miss him most? I don't miss him yapping and spinning around in his chair and being a total zany, brainy sort of guy. I miss him when I'm doing these reeds because I run out of breath. Honestly. It feels so long. You should do it for you.

I'll take one of them. I can read. Thanks again. Tractor supply. But anyway, hope you had a great night. A Josh Giddy doing the gritty for the Bulls sort of night. Not a Juan Soto sort of night. And who's that guy on Texas Tech Williams?

Williams. Oh, William. I hope you had a Darien Williams sort of night. What a shot by him for that comeback to finish off that comeback in overtime. After having a terrible shooting night. Oh, yeah, yeah. By the way. Not a Taylor Jenkins Grizzly coach sort of.

tonight. Too soon. Yeah, is it too soon? A little bit. Well, I'm wishing you a great weekend. I want you to have a good one. But let me tell you two things that are on my mind. And I do want to get the phone calls going.

It's a collaborative effort. I'm doing it Han Solo style, but we have the greatest team ever. Moncey's here, Danny G. Sam Spani. Again, it's the Kavino show, along with you, Fox Sports Radio Nation. So be dialing. As my good friend, Scott Frell would always say, shake it out.

Light him up. Light it up. 877, 99 on Fox. That's the number. You can hit us up at Covino and Rich, but I do want to get you involved and hear from you. 87799 on Fox because baseball is here. And what a day yesterday. I say yesterday.

You know why? I know there's no crying in baseball. And I know that we have an anti-sports baby policy here on the Covino and Rich show. Sports baby. But I am so annoyed and I feel like such a crying baby when I'm so pumped up about the Yankees win yesterday. Duh! Yankees win! Austin. Wales goes deep.

The first catcher to go deep for the Yank since like 1900 in the lead-off position. Yeah. Since forever, over 100 years. And you got. Anthony Volpey also. Volpey with the bum. Volpe is the bomb. A nice win, four to two over the brewers.

And then I wake up today and I'm like, yeah, buddy. More, oh, they're off today. Wait, what? I hate that. That's the weakest. Stupidest. It's the dumbest. Honestly, and like, I'll bring it up to.

casual sports fans and they're like seriously that's what you're mad about and I'm like yeah it's it's the day after opening day and it always seems to happen that way and I hate it and it's aggravating it's annoying I know I sound like a cry baby little sports baby B but it's so frustrating because you're like you teased me with a beautiful win yesterday now I got to wait again for tomorrow did they go to Disneyland with Rich yeah what are the Yankees are what do you take it off on a Friday? Covino, me and Moncey's Dodgers aren't off. We have our ring ceremony tonight.

I know, I know. But I'm with you, Covino. I'm like, how do you just start opening day? And then half the teams the next day, you're like, okay, take a day off. There's something so annoying about it because you wait all year. It's like a holiday. It's like, oh, opening day. You had a nice win.

It was a beautiful win, a nice day. You know, started off sad. They did the tribute, the Yankees I'm talking about, did the tribute to Brett Gardner's son. Right. Very somber, horrible story. Aaron Judge was very close to Brett Gardner and his family. He seemed very upset, but had a nice double yesterday.

You know, Yankees had a really nice win. I feel in Gardner's honor. Nice win to start the season. Few bombs. And then no game today. Very annoying. I know you don't care about the Yankees, but you have to understand how I feel about it.

Thank you for playing along understanding. I'm with you. I agree. So I'm annoyed. But I do want to talk about any other takeaways. Danny G., I got to say this. I was talking to some other Dodgers fans. I was talking to my girlfriend's dad.

He's also a Dodgers fan. Shout out to Lynn. He's out there in Idaho. He's like, yo, man, maybe I'm old, but I don't like the gold jerseys. Oh, come on. I thought they were fired. I hate the Dodgers. Screw the Dodgers.

I'm a Yankees guy. But, man, I thought that was really cool. I like the gold. Moncie, any thoughts on that? No, you only get to do it if you win the World Series. Like, even if you don't like it, you shut up. And who delivered the World Series trophy? Ice Cube in a classic car driving on the dirt.

He drove it around the warning track. The whole thing, the whole just opening ceremony and again the ring ceremony today, barf because it's so cool and you guys are so star-studded. Oh, you're going to hate something. I'm going to talk about that's on Apple TV when we get to weekend hobnobbin. Dude, it makes me want to barf because they're so good. And Shohio Tani, he's a superstar stepping up in the big moment. It's hitting another bomb.

Like, they're so, we're going to go 162 and O? It's gross. So any of your takeaways from opening day or the games today, it's just fun to have baseball back. And, of course, your college basketball. If you're grumpy as a sports fan right now, here's my theory on this. And you can take it personal if you want to. I think you sucked at Little League because if you associate this time of the year with bad feelings and bad memories, you're the weakest. You sucked at Little League and it just brings up bad feelings for.

you because it's the best time of the year. Baseball begins, which signifies springtime for me. The weather's starting to break. You're starting to bust out your little short shorts. You see burst the other day that works here? He was showing more man thigh than Moncee does on the beach. Wow, that's impressive. He was like man thigh teo.

I believe that. His upper thighs are so white. I had to put sunglasses on when I came into the office. We had all those great baseball games and then, yeah, I watched my Lakers lose. but if somebody hits a half-court shot to win, even against your team, I was like, okay, I respect Giddy for that shot. He wasn't even to the half-court line yet. LeBron should pass the ball better on that end-down.

He did that half-assed. Yeah, that... It was... And then the Austin Reeves layup, uncontested, also easy lay-up there. It was, that whole 15, 20 seconds was crazy. It was like they were sleepwalking there at the end, but that shot. I mean... Shot was crazy.

How many times have you seen it? In the 80s we saw like Isaiah, Magic, make some shots like that once in a while. But few and far in between. That was amazing. Yeah, but they were hitting threes and hitting nice shots that whole fourth quarter. That Lakers should not have lost that game. It's embarrassing. And forget about the last few minutes of the game.

It was a choke job. How about the last 24 hours where you have a buzzer beater from LeBron? And then you lose a buzzer beater with Josh Diddy. Let's not say it's a buzzer beater. It's a tippin. Uncontested tippin. Thank you. And then Arkansas.

Then Arkansas after that. I'm watching the Arkansas game. It looks like they're in control. Texas Tech storms back. That shot to go to overtime. And then in overtime, that OT was amazing basketball. So anyone that says, oh, this March Madness is not good. Shut up.

That was amazing. Well, they're saying that because there's no Cinderella team. But is there at this point? Like, maybe one at the maybe. It was Arkansas because it was the lowest seed. But they weren't considered a Cinderella. No, no, no. But I mean, like that was really.

like a power five team, but they were the lowest seed at like 10 in the two left. So you guys want to hear a crazy stat though? Yeah, yeah, give it to me. John Caliperi was coming into this game was 35 and O when he had a lead at half time of six points or greater. And they blew like a, what, a 16 point lead? They did blow a 16 point lead. 35 and O with a half time lead of six points or more.

That is a crazy stat. And guess what lead the Lakers wasted in the fourth quarter? A 16 point lead. I didn't know. Also, that Arkansas game, like the numbers when there was like about four minutes left, it was a 95% chance that Arkansas was going to win with like four minutes left in regulation. Bar. No, I don't know who you blame at that point, but yeah.

And here's what I'm getting at all of this, right? And it backs up the point that I'm saying. We're talking exciting. Even on the losing side of your Lakers, Danny G., exciting basketball, college basketball, NBA, baseball's back. Like I said, the weather's nice. If you're grumpy, it's a two-prong thought. If you're grumpy this weekend heading into the weekend,

you either sucked a little league. Right? Again, because it brings back old feelings. Or you just need a hug. Something's wrong. Like you're maybe depressed or something. I'm just consistently grumpy. Yeah, but there's just so much going on.

Like even if you're not a sports guy or a college basketball guy, it's the weekend. The weather's starting to break. It's beautiful. you have the sound of baseball in the background. You might need a hug. Monzi, you might have to give out hugs or something. Oh.

But... I'm really grumpy, Monty. But something maybe is not right with you. Your opening day takeaways, anything you want to chop it up about, I'm here to talk. 87799 on Fox. But something else that's on my mind

is this Duke controversy. Speaking of the weekend, and speaking of college basketball, let's talk about Duke. They beat Arizona. Number one, Duke beat Arizona, 193, right? Be number four, Arizona. Now they take on Alabama tomorrow, if I'm not mistaken, right?

Number one, Duke taking on number two, Alabama tomorrow. So what's the controversy? You got your Sweet 16, you got your weekend plans. You know what part of my weekend hobnobbing agenda is? We're going to talk about what you need to watch this weekend. Of course, some college basketball, but of course some White Lotus. You guys watching the White Lotus? of course.

Spots watching the Brown Lotus. I don't even know what that means. What's that mean? I don't even know what that means, but the White Lotus. That sounds kind of gross. I know, right? It's one of those polarizing shows on HBO Max. It's season three.

It's done by Mike White, who will forever be Ned Sneebly of the School of Rock for me. Now, in this show, you don't need to watch the show to understand what's going on. Jason Isaacs plays a character named Tim Ratcliffe. And Tim. Tim Ratcliffe is on vacation with his family at the White Lotus in Thailand. And by the way, thoughts to Thailand. I don't know if you saw it today, a 7.7 earthquake. Yeah.

Yo, bro. The footage looks like a nightmare. It looks so scary. Last I heard, well over 100 people died. They're saying maybe into the thousands. I hope not. But a major earthquake in Bangkok today in Thailand. But the show takes place in Thailand.

Jason Isaac's Tim Ratcliffe is the character. He's on vacation with his family. And while he's on vacation at the White Lotus, he gets terrible news. He's going to be thrown under the bus publicly. That's the gist. That's what we know. Like devastating business news that's going to incriminate him. Like embezzlement or something crazy financial.

It's going to be big news and it's going to ruin his life and his family. So he is the only guy that. knows this on the show. He gets the hold of a gun on the show. Now, I'm not giving away the plot. I'm just telling you what happened and it's a viral story today. On the show, he gets the hold of a gun. He's having suicidal thoughts. He has a weak moment where he's like, I'm going to be thrown in jail. My reputation is going to be ruined. I'm going to ruin my family. I'm going to end it all right now. He takes the gun, he points at his head. It becomes a moment on the show, a viral moment on the show.

In this moment, he's wearing a Duke T-shirt. And they're saying that Mike White, the creator of the show, is so crafty and so well thought out. He knew exactly when this show was going to air. No. When the meme was going to hit. No. And when Duke, if in when Duke, number one, Duke blows it, this meme is going to be all over to place. No.

Gun to the head. You choke. You blew it. You're over. Duke is done. So they're saying that he's so crafty. And you know what? It's very believable because every little part of this show is thought out.

It's a psychological sort of show where like everything means something. Sure. Right? And that's the whole. That's what makes the show good. So they're like, that didn't happen by accident. Sneebly, Mike White must have or a writer must have some sort of hatred to Duke or they're just really trying to clown Duke in this moment. Because everybody knows that this is the viral meme.

So there's so many questions that comes from it. Is it funny? Is it going too far? Right? And there's a lot of, is the way we let us go in too far? Yeah. Duke doesn't think it's funny. Yeah. They don't they're like, we don't stand for what this represents.

They put out a statement. They also said there was no approval of it. Yeah, they didn't improve their logo being used in the show. So it's not a meme yet, but it is a viral moment. Can you say lawsuit? Oh, yeah. So, like, this is the start of it. Duke's still in it, right?

But they're saying if and when Duke loses, this is the one that's the thing. Everybody's going to lean into. Duke's, I don't think, I think they're going to blow away everybody. Well, then, hey, then guess what, Mike White of the way? His evil plan never comes to fruition. Duke will get the last laugh. They'll get the last laugh. And that's another storyline.

That's fun. So based on that, I do want to know your thoughts. Fox Sports Radio Nation, 87799 on Fox. My first question is, the White Lotus. Do you think certain shows go too far? Like, my girlfriend stopped watching The Walking Dead with me when, sorry for the spoiler guys, when Carl died. Remember when Coral died?

Yeah, she stopped watching. She's like, that. No, I didn't know he died. Shut off, dude. Who the hell's watching that anymore? How did he die? Remind me. I just haven't seen it so long.

I imagine a zombie got to him. I forget exactly what happened. Yeah, I mean, it's been a while. He had a big thing of pudding and died or something? I forget. The pudding now. Then he did eat a vat of pudding or he felt. He fell in a vat of pudding.

He fell in a vat of pudding. But I remember my girlfriend. She was like, it's just gone too far. I'm like, Carl? Who cares about Carl? She's like, I just can't watch anymore. He's a child. He's a child.

I'm like, he had a stupid cowboy hat. I don't care about Carl. Now, the White Lotus with this Duke thing and other storylines, people are saying it's gone too far. But I'm trying to lighten it up a little bit. Based on this possible meme that could sweep the nation and if Duke loses in the Sweet 16. Are there other sports memes that even compare?

What are the best sports memes? Because I think I have the number one. I think I have the number one sports meme. Start thinking about it. Fox Sports Radio Nation. And we'll get to your phone calls next at 87799 on Fox. Covino, Rolling Solo. Thanks for hanging out.

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. And...

Oh, 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.

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.

Sorry, Danny G. Today. Howdy. Your Lakers lose day. That's all right. The night before they won on a buzzer. Yeah, but then it's a push. You know, they should have had that game.

What was it, 119, 117? Those were the basketball guys. You know what? The defense, though, was amazing there at the end of that game. So you can't be mad unless you can't be. No, I don't know. So we have lots to get to today. Weekend hobnobbing like we always do.

What you need to watch in all the sports and entertainment, stick around for that. Plus, a game that's sweeping the nation. Is it me or Bill Belichick? Apparently, we're the same guy. We'll give away prizes. But now back to the phone call. Let's get involved at 87799 on Fox or at Covino and Rich.

Hashtag Covino's the man. Hashtag Rich is dope. Rich is on the Dumbo flying ride as we speak right now. I just got an update. Dumbo, the flying elephant. After he got out of the Dol-Wip line. After he got out of the Dolk Wip line. The Dolk Wip line.

Covino and Whip show today. So tomorrow Duke takes on Alabama, right? Number one, Duke, number two, Alabama. If they lose, if they lose any time, apparently. the conspiracy goes that Mike White, the creator of the White Lotus, very popular show on HBO Max, purposefully created a moment that was intended to be a meme. And it's Jason Isaacs would have gun to his head wearing a Duke T-shirt. So you could say, was that intentional or was it coincidance?

I don't think anything on this show is coincidence. But I looked into it, I did my due diligence, I did my research. I'm like, does Mike White have some sort of indebt? Does he hate Duke? Yeah. He went to Wesley in University. So as a theater in English major, so nothing, no juice there. Maybe he just doesn't like Duke or somebody.

Told him. Like, hey, this is the most popular school this year because of Cooper Flagg. Yeah. If we put this, maybe it'll. What should he be wearing a Duke T-shirt? Like, it wasn't by accident. Let's be real about that. specific.

Very specific. Well, they're supposed to be from North Carolina. Yes. Okay. So that adds to it. That's their origin. But it's all purposeful. It really is.

They're making these characters very hateable. They want you to hate them. So he's wearing the Duke t-shirt in this very important moment when he's about to commit suicide or thinking about it on the show. So the thought process is this was bound to be a meme that everybody leans into because they're going to want to hate on Duke when they lose. If they lose, Iowa Sam says he thinks they're going all the way. But it could pay dividends for any year from now or where they could use that meme. Right, right. You know what? Yeah, it lives forever. You're right. Like Oasis, it's going to live forever. Now, the question here, Fox Sports Radio Nation, if and when this ever becomes a meme.

When it comes to sports memes, they're great. But there's a number one. So I'll give you my best Casey Kasem. I think I have number two. Do you? Yeah. Or should I give you my Spider-Harrison? Coming in at number one. The number one sports meme, and I hate to credit Mike who runs this place. Who?

Mike. He drops the little nugget and walks away. He might drop this one. You go to me. Pun intended. I know the number one. And he's right. He's right, and I hate giving him credit.

Because you know what came to mind for me? I'll tell you what came to mind for me. All right. Let's be real about it. It was Swaggy P, the Nick Young meme. He's like, huh? turns around. I love that one.

Because it's so famous. I feel like he's more famous for that than anything else. I use it all the time. The huh? The swaggy pee. Does everybody know it's him? It's Nick Young. It's Nick Young, former Laker.

Huh? All right. Do you need a drum roll for your number one? But I was like, that's got to be up there, right? It is. That's a good one. That's number three after the number two one. Mike was like, no, the number one is.

And here it is. Number one, and I'd love to hear you debate it, and I want to hear your answers, which ones do you use the most? The Jordan Cryface. It really is. Don't use that one. But it's so famous. It is.

It's so famous. It's even put into other players' faces. Sure. Because he's Michael, A, because he's Michael Jordan, B, because he's crying, and C, because it's just so funny. And he knows it. He makes fun of himself. Oh, yeah.

Yo, it's the worst. It's the worst. But it's everywhere. It has to be the number. Number one, he's the most famous sports icon, arguably of all time. It's a meme that everybody knows. Your mom probably knows the Jordan Cry Face. It might pass the mom test.

But what other ones come to mind? What other ones do you use? 87799 on Fox. Number two also involves crying, being upset. LeBron famously in his Cavs jersey. To J.R. Smith? On the Golden State Warriors Court with his hands, both hands out like this. And he's, yeah.

Danny, that's the one I was going to say. Oh, are you serious? That's the one I was going to say. So I'm right with you. That's one that I've used multiple times. It's the moment. It's more like a why. Why?

What are you doing? What are you doing? Yeah, what are you doing? What is that? And it's so like everybody knows the frustration. Yes. That LeBron is feeling in that moment. That's what I wanted to do when the Lakers were on defense at the end of the Bulls game.

Yes. Why? Why? Yeah. Do it. Isn't it funny how we're going backwards? Like we now speak in symbols and memes and gifts. Like we're babies and children?

We communicate in hieroglyphic now. Like not even words, just pictures. Just like, just LeBron turning sideways. Like, why? Because we all know what that means. It's like frustration. Why would you do that? And you know what, Danny J?

It immediately comes to mind. It's top three. You're right. I think that is number two because he's number two to Jordan. Let's be real about it. Just like life. It's number two to Jordan That debate's coming up an hour or two

Oh yeah, we'll get to it So what other sports memes Crack the top five Coming in at number five One that I use a lot But it could be because You know, I'm a Clippers fan now But the one of James Hardin

With the mic and he rolls his eyes And kind of like walks away Oh I love that's yeah Is that a gift? GIF or is it a meme Same same tent Is gifts and memes Same umbrella

What's the difference? Tell me it's an animated move Yeah, a gif is like a little video. A meme is a still shot. A still shot. Yeah. With like maybe a little bit of closed captioning on it. The one of LeBron, I feel like there's also the gift because he's like, you know, like moving his hands.

But don't get it twisted because I definitely see Hardin as a meme. Absolutely. Totally. It works either way. There is a difference. And I'm, you're right, you're right. And it's a meme. Mine is more of a gift.

Despite what Bryce Harper embarrassingly said years ago, he called it a Mimi. Remember? That's right. But again, in his defense, at first, none of us. I don't know if it's Giff or GIF still this day. It's GIF. It's GIF. It's GIF.

No, the creator came out and said it's GIF. I swear they keep going back and forth. Who cares? I said Giff now, which is peanut butter. Giff is peanut butter. I say Giffy. I say Giff and it's in my brain now. Well, choosy Sam's choose GIF.

So, you know, yeah, they all fall on the same category, but we're focusing on meme specifically. But it doesn't really matter. I'm not here to grade you on your. He did, though, in the pre-show meeting, I said, oh, the one that I use a lot is the Jets. What player was it? Bart Scott. Can't wait. And he said, no, that's a gift.

That's not a meme. But you know what? That's one of my favorite, not only gifts, but sound bites, too. That's so good. Turn that one up. Can't wait. If you see Bart Scott, isn't it like steam coming from his head? Yes, right.

When you see the steam from, like, you know, again, because we speak in hieroglyphic, today's version of hieroglyphics, you know that you know that you. You're excited about something. Yeah. Dude. Can't wait. Can't wait for baseball this weekend. Can't wait.

Can't wait. So based on this potential, Jason Isaac's character, what is it, Tim Ratcliffe? Tim. Tim. Tim Ratcliffe wearing this Duke jersey. This could be a very popular sports meme quite possibly starting this weekend if Duke loses or moving forward, like Sam said. It might be up there.

What other sports gifts, memes come to mind? he was wearing the Duke shirt when like his, you know, that scene where his junk was hanging out. Okay. By the way, that would have been a much better meme. We talked about going too far on the show. I don't need to see this guy's junk. I hear there's a lot of junk on this season of the White Lotus. Oh, there's a lot of junk.

A lot of man. A lot of man-junk. Oh, Moncie's in true. Moncy stood up straight. What did Monty on other shows you've said you don't want that sent to your phone. So why would you want it on your TV screen? Yeah, I'm not on my phone. I need a bigger screen.

Yeah, well. I think we need a junk warning. Can I ask, so, Walton Goggins is on White Lotus, right? And he's fantastic. Okay, I like Walton Goggins a lot. But it wasn't, didn't he show his man parts on the royal gemstones? Oh, really? Oh, yeah.

Didn't he? He shows his junk on some show. I think it's the age of man junk. Yeah, there's a lot of. You know, like how we're, the age of Aquarius. We're entering the age of. Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The age of man junk.

What is it, the hangover? There's like some fake junk, I think. But it still looks very real. Because we're so desensitized, Sam, to really get the attention of the public today. It's man junk. Boogie night started at all. Man junk. Yeah, probably boogie nights.

So the White Lotus, lots of man junk, and this meme controversy. Let's go to the phones. Thank you Fox Sports Radio Nation for hanging with me. The Richless show, Kavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio. Who do we got online one, Danny G? Let's start with Jake in Indiana. Hey, Jake, thanks for calling. We're going to the phones.

Now, what comes to mind? Hey, I got that meme, Tiger and John Daly right next to each other. It's used for like, you got high class on this side and you got ready to party on this side. I love it. It's ready to go. I love it. And there's so many different versions of that, but that's really the premise of it. It's like, you know, here's Tiger Woods looking sort of classy in his little vest.

And then John Daly looking like he's smoking a SIG, I think. He's in his bright colors, Zumba pants. He's all a mess. It's so good. Yeah, total mess. Jake got that right because that is a meme. That's a great one. Thank you for the call.

That's exactly what we're talking about. But if you're going to say a gift, some of those gifts are memes. Sure. You know, it's all fair game. It's all fun. Who cares? 87799 on Fox. Who got in line to, Danny G?

Let's talk to our boy Tripp in Vegas. Trip McNeely. What up, buddy? Thanks for taking my call. I'm glad you got Moncie in there. Filling in for Jimmy Duggan. because I know as a girl's softball coach. Oh, hell, yeah.

And then to catch up on Wednesday, I can easily beat up a Justin Bieber. That's no problem. And then my meme is, my meme is, I say it, it's remember when Kobe, it's of Kobe shrugging his shoulders. And he goes, it's called shooting guard, not passing guard. Yes. I say that in my league games all the time. They're like, I'm like, I'm the shooting guard. You know, it does make me think of Jordan too shrugging.

Because it's still like a what do you want for me. And that's used often too. Like, you know, what do you want for me? Like, now you got Caitlin Clark shruging. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of sports shrugs. That's a great one. It's like, yeah, yeah, what do I know? You know, I'm just here like an idiot.

By the way, hey, Tripp before you go. Tripp. By Tripp. He's right there. Trip. Oh, I'm here. I'm here. Go ahead.

You said he could beat up eight teenage beavers. That was something that inspired another thought. How many Stephen A's does it take to beat up one LeBron? That was the number one answer on board That was the number one answer Yeah we're going to put a clip out later about that At Covino and Rich So other sports memes taking your phone calls 87799 on Fox

Who do we got to NIG? Before we get to Monci's update let's talk to Dylan and Reno Is that line three? Yes sir Dylan what's up Hey guys love the show man you guys kill it Thank you buddy Hey this is the best one I can't believe you guys didn't think about this

But it's Jay color with a cigarette in his mouth It's like that, the Nike logo, and it says, just do it or don't. Yeah, dude, I love that. Top five. He looks like, yes, like he so doesn't care. He's tired. His hair's messed up. He's got bags under his eyes, a cigarette, and like, whatever.

That's what Rich is going to look like after a full day with his whole family at Disneyland. You know what that is? That's like the sports version of Ben Affleck just sitting there all defeated. Like having a cigarette outside of the store. Just. Yeah, exactly. Like Rich Davis, after a long. day at Disneyland.

Can't take anymore. So we're going to get to the rest of your phone calls. Stay on hold. Don't go anywhere. This is a collaborative effort. Appreciate you. 87799 on Fox, but we got Moncy's update. What up, Monty.

What up, guys. I'll be quick here. So Dion Sanders, Colorado head football coach, earned a five-year, $54 million contract extension that runs through the 2029 season, making him one of the highest-paid coaches in the country. In the NBA, the Grizzlies have fired head coach Taylor Jenkins after six. seasons. He has the most wins in franchise history, but they thought he lost the locker

room. So they figured if they fire him now, it might actually help how they finish the season. They're naming Thomas Isalo as their interim head coach. Hornet Star Lamello Ball will miss the rest of the season as he undergoes two minor procedures to address ankle and wrist issues. And even though the Yankees aren't playing, there

are other teams playing baseball. And right now, the Rockies are on top of the race 2-0. It's the bottom of the seventh inning. Back to only Kavino. Thank you. And by the way, you know why I like the Rockies? Because their logo is CNR, Kavino and Rich. All the other hat that I like.

That's good. The CR logo works for me. I like that. Kavino and Rich minus Rich. He's in Disneyland, eating cotton candy. Oh, he's moved on to Cotton Candy. Yeah, with his masqueteer ears on right now. And it says Richie on the back, embroidered.

I have my own embroidered hat from Disney. Do you really? Yeah, I got it when I was younger. Oh, I thought you meant now. No, but I still have it. He got it. He got it. I was like a teenager

when I got it. I was like a teenager when I got it in 20, 23. That's a conversation in itself. Here's the deal, Fox Sports Radio. I want you to stay on hold. Hang tight because I will get to your phone calls. We're talking and wrapping up the greatest sports memes

based on this Duke controversy from the White Lotus. Plus we have games to play. We got more Kavino and Rich next on Fox Sports Radio. Hey, it's us to Jonas Brothers. And guess what? We have some big news.

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. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this.

We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys.
