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.

Winning on Clay is an art. The rallies are relentless. And at the French Open, only the toughest survive. I'd know. I competed there for decades. Join me, Renee Stubbs, on the Renee Stubbs tennis podcast for no-nonsense breakdowns of the biggest matches, the toughest players, and the moments that define Roland Garris. She can win.

She's an outsider to win the French fame. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lina Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now. And I actually can win on any service.

Every family has its secrets. But what happens when you discover that your dad has been living a double life?

That is not the look of an innocent man. Is everyone lying to me about who they are? I felt such desperation. I felt it was what I had to do. Listen to Deep Cover the Family Man On the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is,

getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its place. I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit season two is about both of those things. As I was watching these statues come down, I was thinking about what it meant that I grew up in a majority black city in which there were more homages to enslavers than there were to enslave people.

And by the way, on Mother's Day yesterday, this is a total dad victory, so I have to share it because I feel like very rarely do us dads get this moment at my son's tee ball game after the game, all the boys gave the moms a rose. And I took a picture where my son and my wife both look good, and my wife's like, that's the best photo. And I'm like, that's your mother's day.

present. Oh my God, you didn't get yelled at because of the angle or anything? No, I did the right angle. I got them both smiling and looking good and I was like, how often does the dad get the good picture? You didn't get, why did you post that ugly picture of me in response? No matter how beautiful your wife or girlfriend is, guys are always known to take the worst photos. Apparently, I'm the worst photographer that ever was. So, man, yeah, that's a great job. I want to tap myself on the back. I feel like that was. Rich got a good picture of his wife yesterday. Look at that. Action shot. Look at that. Great job. But yeah, let's get back into the this. I thought about it, Rich. The NBA

on NBC, we know the Michael Jordan thing. We're past that. Now, it's the intro. You can play it against him. I mean, it's only 10 seconds. They did a little teaser for the NBA coming back to NBC, and the voice sounds familiar. The NBA on NBC is back.

See you this October for the NBA season tip off. And that voice is familiar because it's the voice of the late great Jim Fagan, who's no longer with us, but he did the voice and he was the voiceover guy for NBA and NBC.

By the way, for the record, he passed away in 2017. But you recognize the voice and it becomes a question of awesome or just odd. Or just the future. We got to get used to it. Thought about it, Rich.

And I feel like this is a, well, it's cool homage to him if you want to look at it that way. But it could be a slippery slope for people in our industry. People make a great living doing voiceover and as a broadcaster myself, that just shows how replaceable you are.

And if AI's able to do that, it's able to do what we do in the future. And I've heard it as far as AI introducing songs on the radio and that sort of thing. No AI can come up with the dumb analogies I come up with, so I feel safe. I don't know if AI could ever be as dumb as rich. That's true.

They're so dumb, they're untouchable? No AI can come up with this stupidity. My theory on this goes one way. What if they come out with AS artificial stupidity? Then you're doomed. What if you ask AI to come up with a dumb analogy like Rich Davis of Fox Sports. Oh, I'm sure. Yeah.

I'm sure it could do it. I have my answer. My answer is simple. It depends on whether or not it's a one-off or as Mickey would say in Rocky. Poiminent. Now, if it's a one-off, meaning Derek Jeter has his last at bat at Yankee Stadium and Shepard. Bob Shepard.

No, but. Number two and they play the recording. Number two. That's a great point. Like honorary. Yeah. If it's the first day of baseball, Dodger Stadium and they press play and it's Vince Scully saying, let's play Dodger baseball.

I can see what's happening. But that's a nice little tribute. Now, if you said, that's the permanent job every day. No, no, no. I don't like that. Yeah, but they're testing the waters to see how people feel about it. It's kind of weird. It's kind of odd, I think.

I really do. And let me give you another example. We've seen this in our industry before. We've seen it before where hosts, there was something called hosts, presenters, TV hosts and TV presenters. My ex was a TV presenter, a host, and she started losing jobs for probably multiple reasons. But one of them was that those jobs were going towards celebrities, celebrity hosts. So there was no need for an actual professional host anymore because celebrities were more familiar and capable of doing this. and people identified more with those celebrities.

Now it seems like we're going to be losing jobs to these AI sort of broadcasters. I believe that is probably what's next. Why pay someone X amount when they could just pay the likeness of the voice? And maybe it goes to the family. I don't know how that works. There's a difference between opinion and just a voice, meaning podcasting and radio and audio entertainment is as healthy as ever because people love opinions.

They love debate. They love storytelling all that. I think that's safe. What I think is not, honestly, is like you said, voiceover work. I think if you're introducing a product and it's just simply talking points. Yeah, but what's our analogy we always say? What's the saying or the quote? When you say yes to something, you're saying no to something else.

You say yes to Jim Fagan, who passed away in 2017. You say no to that young guy like a Danny G with a great voice who could have easily done that, made a few bucks and then you said his career on a sweet trajectory. Do you feel, how do you feel about hologram live performances? Because Sharon Osborne recently said, and Ozzy's still alive, by the way. She said she's open to it in the future. That's an interesting one because I feel like, but again, you're saying yes to hologram performances, you're saying no to maybe seeing a band that's alive that you could be contributing to.

And by the way, Fagan's family will be compensated for this. because it is a partnership. That's pretty cool. With his family and NBC. Then as broadcasters and likeness, that's why actors went on strike, right? Because they wanted to protect their likeness and they were using their likeness.

The studios were just using their likeness for whatever. You don't even need extras anymore because they just use likeness. And we figure because something this big, like a network this big and something official like that, of course they have to compensate the estate or the family. But how many bootleg AIs are we seeing? That is the real issue because nobody's going to see. any money from the bootlegs. That's true. And Mike, who runs this place made another good point.

Who? If I were you, I would open up your trust and will and redo the whole thing. Like, why? Because what if you were to die, like Jim Fagan, right? They use your voice. You're making money now. Who's getting that money? If you're not making it clear in your will. It's just something to think about. Something we never really had to think about before. Danny, if something happens to you, can you leave me your voice? Yeah. Can you leave someone? I always say I want your Iowa t-shirt. You got it.

The yellow one you wear like once a week. I want to watch the watermelons all over it. They're both in the will. Very summary. I could use that one. So your thoughts, hey, why not? Are they watermelons or pineapples? What's on your shirt?

I have two watermelon shirts. Yeah, I want those. Thanks. All right. Upside down, pineapples? What's going on there? What's going on with those shirts? Interestingly enough, that's what's happening.

AI broadcasters and voiceovers. But if you really want to do the math, I think the NBC on NBA is doing a real good job. Strategry is involved here with really bringing us the nostalgia that maybe NBA needs. John Tesh, Bo, Bubba, Basketball, Michael Jordan, Jim Fagan. All ties together. Let's say hi to David. You're on Kavino and Rich.

What's up, buddy? Hey, dude. Just press on on the AI stuff here at work. We kind of consider the AI computer here at work. work guys, another idiot. So AI's time for another idiot for us. I love that. Yeah, I mean, listen, there's going to be uses for it.

And it's like anything, right? You try to resist it, and you're going to realize eventually, like, well, it's going to be a part of our lives. You just don't hope it replaces humans making money and incomes and families. But unfortunately, that will likely happen. What happened when they made factories with machinery? Like, right? How many humans are like, that we did that?

That's why these actors unions are like, don't even get your foot in the door with AI. We do not want it in our industry whatsoever, because once that foot is in the door, then it's going to blow wide open. Sam, I agree. I'm not pro-machine, you know, anti-human. I'm just saying what happens is the technology's there, and we try to resist it. But the inevitable ending is that some of these things will happen. I just hope it doesn't infiltrate the industries that affect us. Yes, selfishly. Everyone doesn't want it to affect them, but go back 100 years. What did people say that worked on assembly lines? and factors.

Oh, these machines are going to... And they did. They put them out of business. Does it have to happen, though? Just because things can happen in the future, is it best for everybody? I mean, people argue about bringing back the woolly mammoth all the time. Let me ask you this, Danny.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should. Let me ask you this, because I'm not saying it's related completely, but do we lean into these things anyway? Like for me, oh, man, I must be a jerk because I opt for self-checkout every time. I prefer to use the robot at the supermarket, right? Do you stand in line of weight? I hate self-checkout. 899.

I'm so... 899, 1699. I'm so spiteful with the self-checkout that I do. One for them, one for me. One for them, one for me. That's called fever. Not really, because I'm an employee at the store. Danny G.

Apparently, I'm working there. I asked chat GPT. I was on chat GPT as we speak, for real. And I said, what sort of analogy would Rich Davis give about the dangers of AI broadcasters. Do I hear what it says? This is according to chat GPT to see if you could truly be replaced.

If Rich Davis known for his witty, relatable style... It's already wrong. It's already wrong. Of shows like Kavino Ownridge. Stop here right there. We're able to give an analogy about the dangers of AI broadcasters. It might

sound something like this. Hit it. Imagine. Imagine you're at your favorite neighborhood bar. That's what it says. And the bartender knows your name, your drink, your favorite sport team. And now suddenly he's replaced by a robot that pours the perfect drink,

but doesn't know your story, doesn't laugh at your dumb jokes, and definitely doesn't remember that time you cried after your team blew a 3-1 lead. That's AI broadcasters, slick, efficient, but totally soulless. He might follow it up with something tongue-in-cheek like, sure, the AI won't call out sick or ask for a raise, but it also won't give you that huge. that makes radio feel like a conversation, not a script. I don't like that air could even do what you just read.

Actually, I think air was better than anything you came up with. By the way, apparently it takes, what is it, four bottles of water every time you ask chat, GPT question. Rich Ruta said something so much more dumb than that. It's like a corn dog. You ever have a corn dog, but... It's like, what are you talking about it? There's like mustard.

And then there's like mustard and have a corn dog, but you're not sure if it's like what kind of mustard. Covino, there's a related story from last week. where China has opened the world's first AI-powered hospital. I heard about that. Do you see that? 42 robots and they're performing surgery on humans. I'm sorry. I'm not letting a robot do a surgery.

However, Danny, what if the stat showed after a year of actual data that the survival rate in the robot hospital was higher? It's flawless. Like a flawless out. Every futuristic movie, it's always done by computers. They always like... I know. Bishop and aliens.

Yeah. There's always a malfunction, always. It's always Will Smith chasing the malfunction. And is they're this thirsty? Go back to that water thing, you were saying? Oh, yeah. Apparently, it takes like, it's bad for the environment. They're saying how bad chap GBT is for the environment.

Because of the power it takes to answer these questions, the computers are using up the moisture level. You made that up just to stop us. I read it. Hey, for Jim Fagan and his family, It's a cool story, no doubt. But there are other things to think about in the future. Man.

This is still weird if you make love to a robot, a sex robot. Is that cheating? Can we go over that yet? Where's that? Is it cheat? Only if you take your socks off. Otherwise you're good. Okay.

A single chat GPT conversation might use about half a liter of water. I can't even equate. Well, how? Because it has to cool the system. them. Yeah. It's coolant. Harvesting, quote unquote, harvesting cryptocurrency,

uses a lot of energy and water. Keep these machines cool and the electricity you need. Cool. Cool. Cool. They're very thirsty. I know nothing about what you're speaking of. Humans and robots need water.

Cooling down what? In fact, I own quite a... Cooling down like the computers. I was the idiot that... I was the idiot that bought crypto early just out of whim. But I don't know nothing about it. When you say mining crypto, I'm like, I didn't even... I used to do that.

I think there are. There's a finite number of... There's a lot of chelaine miners out there trying to... Look at the Bitcoin. They're stuck in a Bitcoin mine. Yeah. No, but like, I think there's a finite amount of Bitcoin out there now. Like, there's no more.

But at the time, they were actually, quote-unquote, harvesting them. What do you think the Zoolanders were looking for? It's... The files are in the computer. I think I got the black lung. I found some doge and some Ethereum. Looking for Solana. That's what they were...

That's what they were digging for. All right, hey, your thoughts. You know what? I think we could sum it up by saying the NBA doing a pretty good job of wrangling us back, NBA on NBC. You got Michael Jordan and the voiceover guy that died. I think they're two for two so far. Yeah, basketball. And John Tesh.

Baker, yeah, three for three. Baker in Illinois, wrapped us up, buddy. I just want to say about the AI and the robotics and all that stuff. What's going to end up having? They took a good job. They broke his jaw. Every time you lean. Toward that, that's what I'm thinking in the back of my brain, for sure.

They took a job! Yeah. So funny. We're going to have to build walls around computers. AI sound bites. AI promotions. All right. All right.

Well, hey, two things I want to do coming up. There's an Antonio Brown story in the news, and this is something that AI can't do. How are Antonio Brown and the Pope alike? Oh. What? Only I can give you that. AI can't do that. The Pope and Antonio Brown, what are they have in common?

We'll get to that plus. We're going to play my favorite game. I don't know about yours. Last one standing. Danny G's got it all ready to go. You want to be a contestant. Call now to win a free Swiggy from CNR. 87799 on Fox and we'll do it next right here.

Now, we've got to talk about Travis Matthew, our favorite gear. Rich is rocking the MLB collection as we speak. I love Travis Matthew. The only thing I hate about that T-shirt is that it says the Mets on it, but they have a great collection of MLB teams. Plus these jeans, I'm rocking. Danny G's always wearing some Travis Matthew gear. And now it's your chance.

There's new arrivals. There's polos. There's T-shirts. The T's are sweet. The regular T's, your first layer, your only layer. Built for movement, made for style. These new T's keep you up no matter where you're headed. You know where you're going to see me rocking these nice featherweight jeans at our Kavino

and Rich Party in Vegas. Oh, yeah. June 20th to the 22nd. It's going to be hot. Vegas, summer, but I got, you know, for a nice little dinner, nighttime party, Kavino and Rich Style. You know I'm going to be rocking my Travis Matthew. Now, sneakers, like you said, they got the T-shirts that are nicely fitted, the polos, if you want to dress it up a little bit. And it's around that time of year.

I say, this is a time where you look in your closet and you say, I'm a grown man, I work hard. Let me refresh and look sweet. And the way to do that is to go to Travis Matthew.com.

Thanks again to Travis Matthew.com. 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 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 the name, Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it.

Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL, late night comedy guy, 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 I-Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The French Open is one of the toughest tests in tennis, and I know firsthand because I competed there myself. I'm Renee Stubbs, and on the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast, I'm breaking down everything happening at Roland Garris. Every match, every upset, and what it really takes to win on clay.

Genshin win. I mean, she went down at three to, two. Rabakina, but I'm delighted. She's an outsider to win the French for me. And she likes Clay. Listen, Lena Rubakina is arguably the best player in the world right now. And I actually can win on any surface. Because if she's serving, well, good luck.

Consider this your court side seat to the French Open. Listen to the Renee Stubbs Tennis podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. Imagine an Olympics where dope. 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 I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Jacob Kingston grew up in an isolated polygamous sect.

We were God's chosen kingdom on earth. He felt destined for greatness. So when a swaggering Armenian businessman catapults Jacob into an extraordinary world, he doesn't look back. Ferraris and Lamborghinis, private jets, meeting the president of Turkey. I'm Michelle McPhee, and this is one of the most shocking criminal conspiracies I've ever come across. When Jacob met Levin this went to a billion dollar fraud. But with two kings from entirely different worlds, just how long can their empire survive? The largest tax investigation in American history.

You need to tell me what you know. Is somebody coming after me? Jacob told Levan, you're ruining my life.

If you run out of time or you answer incorrectly, Iowa Sam takes you out with his big bad buzzer. You do not want to hear that. keep battling until you are the last one standing. If you win two of the rounds, you are the top dog. Here are the contestants, seven-time

winner, Steve Covino, right over there. Let's go. To his right, 10-time winner, Rich Davis. One day you'll get to double digits, buddy. The leader. That's what your wife said. The leader in the clubhouse. 28-time winner.

It doesn't even make sense. It doesn't, but it was funny. We are laughing. These are the moments I wish I had AI hosts over there. 28-time winner, Dan Byer, right over there. Hello. Why don't you brag about it, Dan? He's like, he's like Kramer with karate kids.

Let's go to the studio lines. He got through first, and you guys got to give Eric and Phoenix props. He tries to get through for the games every week. Thank you, buddy. Eric got in first. Eric, you're the contestant for last one. What's up, me? All right.

All right. Good afternoon, gentlemen. How you doing? Thank you, man. Thanks for playing. What do you do for living there in Phoenix? Yeah, I'm a procurement officer for the county, so I'm like Ron Swanson over here. Oh, nice. I like that. He's got a real job. All right, Spotty is the fact checker during this game.

Hate this. Yeah, he's got a lot of anxiety. No worse. When I say your name, the clock is going to begin. Here is the first category. It's called A Lot of Real Estate. You have five seconds to name an MLB team whose current stadium has one of the deepest outfield walls. All right. We'll take

the top 17 MLB stadiums with the deepest outfield walls. Covino, you're going to be up first as soon as the timer goes now. Fenway Center field is deep. Okay. Yes, number one. Bam. Good job. Good poll. Rich. Give me team.

Mets. Mets. Yes. Number 13, 408 feet. Buyer. I feel the tigers have a deep outfield wall. Tigers do. They are number five with 400 N. 12. Eric and Phoenix.

How about the Astros? Astros, number 11 with 409 feet. Remember they used to have that little funny thing in the outfit? Yeah, like the little hill. With the flagpole. Oh, yeah. So stupid. All right, we're off to a good start.

Back to Covino. That was my answer. Texas, Rangers. Yep, they are number 16 with 400. Nice. Rich. Blue Jays. Blue Jays, not on the list.

Oh, out of there. Byer. Baltimore. Baltimore Orioles are number seven with 410 feet. Eric. Rockies, Colorado. Rockies, 415 feet number two. That's a good guess.

Good educated guess. Such a job, but yeah. Covino. Minnesota. Minnesota. Yeah, twins, 411 feet, number six. Byer. How about the angels?

Angels. are Not on the list Eric Pittsburgh Pittsburgh are not in the list Irish not there

That means Covino Yeah Last one standing In that round at least My philosophy was I was trying to think Of like some older parks I thought might have been a little bigger

And then I thought The Blue Jay is like dome bigger And that was my I was out early So you just fine buddy Why don't you just suck it up Giants were the one of the big ones you missed

450 feet Diamondbacks, 413 feet, and Guardians, 410 feet. All right. Second category. What's the park with the smallest dimension? Is there a team that has like center field like 390 something? Who's in the last place? I think Wrigley's probably short because their lines extend deep.

Yeah, Keith Fernandez always talked about Wrigley being his favorite place to hit. Where's my list here? Well, I don't want to hassle you. Oh, I mean, it's okay. Is the Yankee Stadium? Shortest? Shortest is actually Petco Park and Angel Stadium. They're tied for the shortest.

I'll take accountability for sucking at the basketball question. But that one, it's so funny, when you move on from a sport seasonally mentally, like when you are like, I am, in my mind, like football, I'm on my mental timeout from football. I had to go through the teams. Like, who's that running back? I see.

NFL's year round, though. I know. James Connor with 50. Alvin Kamara with 48. David Montgomery, 48. Oh, Montgomery. Yeah. That's crazy.

Zach Wheeler? Oh, Eric walks off as the last one standing. Eric, give us one more. You were pretty good at that. I had one at it. No. Because I thought maybe, I was thinking like Dan Byer when he said Bumgarner, what about Linsicum? Is that prior to 2010?

Yeah. Yeah. It is. It is. 15 years goes fast. Corey Klober. That's a good one. Arieta.

Ari Dickey. Oh, I forgot about that. I think of that was in the last 15 years. Holiday. What a failure I am. Trevor Bauer, no one said. Oh, another good one. No one wants that.

No one wants that guy. Hey, great job, Eric. Your patience paid off, man. Eric, I'm glad that you finally got in, and you won. I'm going to mail off that Shining C&R Swiggy to Phoenix for you. All right, thanks, fellas. Hey, we'll throw in some coosies since you're a good dude. All right, buddy.

Yeah, you get you need coosies in Arizona. Keep those drinks. I know. Great job. All right, why are you mocking my time and good job, Sam? You know exactly. You can't win a ball then. It's been a while since I used that drop.

I thought it was a great battle. It was. It was a lot of fun. All around. Everyone really brought it. Eric. Except for the NBA question. Great job.

Danny G. And Rich asked the question, Fox Sports Radio Nation. He said, how is A.B. Antonio Brown and the Pope the same guy? I guess we'll explain. But first, an update from the guy, Dan Byron. The running back one was interesting as well. Yeah.

Because you're trying to decipher what is the five years in terms of, all right, was that, was that was this person, because they brought up Delvin Cook at the end, was Dalvin Cook because he would have been in that window. He had a terrible last part of those five years, but in the beginning, he was very, yeah. So then you're thinking, Kyron Williams was the guest that I was out on. It was like, well, I know these last couple of years have been great, but are they enough to cover? Correct. There's something else going on too, though, DB.

Like, I was thinking, Connor, I swear to God. Sure. But you don't want to come across and say something that's totally just sounds dumb. I don't know. I'd rather say nothing. I was thinking Najee Harris just because he fit in that five-year window, like where you would get all five years of that player. And then someone like a Zeke was an interesting one.

Zeke was on the list because you were like, that's right, Ezekiel Elliott to your Delvin Cook Point in the beginning of those five years. Sure, yeah, absolutely. Well, speaking of Zeke's former team, the Dallas Cowboys, the Cowboys will take on the Philadelphia Eagles coming up in the kickoff game for 20. The NFL's regular season will start with that NFC East showdown in Philadelphia on Thursday, September 4th. Fox announced the doubleheader in Week 16 on Saturday, December 20th. It'll feature the Eagles taking on the commanders in D.C. And then be followed by the Packers and Bears. Fox also announcing the home of the Indy 500 and the announced will be broadcasting the week one matchup in college football between Texas and Ohio State in Columbus.

That's Saturday, August 30th and the Ohio State Michigan game in Ann Arbor on Saturday, November. 29th. Bronze onbacker, Jeremiah Owasu Coromoa was placed on the reserve pup list, as JOK will not play in 2025 because of a neck injury. Now let's get down to what's happening in the NBA. ESPN reported earlier today, Bucks forward. Yonison Tadacumpo is being open-minded about where his best long-term place may be in his playing career, while the Cavaliers have an injured Donovan Mitchell on ESPN says he's likely a game-time decision for tomorrow's game five against the Pacers because of that ankle injury.

Celtics Knicks tonight. Tim Rolves and Warriors, but at the top of the hour, it's the NBA draft lottery. NBC announced they've hired Michael Jordan to be a special contributor to their NBA coverage next season under the new TV deal. Baseball just getting underway Brewers and Guardian scoreless in the third. Evan Longoria guys announced he's retiring from baseball after 16 seasons. Didn't play last year, spent 10 of those 16 years with the raise. The raise will honor him with a one-day contract on June 7th where he will also be honored at their game that day. Wow.

No, that one hits weird because you know how a lot of times, you know, we talk about guys, you remember their rookie baseball cards and you see him retire. I remember in the extent of you and I being friends, Evan Longoria being like the hot new rookie. Yeah, solid career. Just like that. And I know your dad's favorite highlight, that fake AI, that fake one where he climbs the ball. Yeah.

Oh, when he kills the ball from the reporter. Yeah. So congrats to his career. We got more Kavino and Rich. We're talking the Pope and AB next. 87799 on Fox. 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 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. And...

Oh, 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.

Broke Shaq, Wack Diesel will be here. And we want you to be here too. Now, speaking to the Pope. Yes. You said that he and AB are the same guy. I know, I said, how so. How are Antonio Brown and the Pope alike? A like.

And the question is this. Before I tell you how they're alike, when I say social media, do you think social media is real life? Certain aspects I tend to believe more than others. Like if someone's shown me how great their relationship is through photos all the time, I don't necessarily believe that. Yeah. I saw a great post from this dad on TikTok I follow and he's like, everyone with kids, every weekend is a struggle. So if you see a great picture of like the family together after having ice cream after a game,

do you know the struggle it took to get to that point? Danny, if I see a picture of little koa smiling on your lap, I know what went into getting to that moment. Struggling. Let me tell you, I stayed, I was back east and I stayed with my brother and his wife and their kid and seeing it firsthand living with it for a couple days versus what I just saw posted on social media for Mother's Day. Completely different story. Yeah, you're seeing everybody's best, right?

It's advertising the worst. So we know not to believe that fully. And people like to exaggerate and show off and brag. And, yeah, were you really sitting first row at the game? Probably not. You just did that for the gram. But when it comes to people posting their thoughts or like a news break or alert, you assume that it's real because it's coming from them the source.

Now, social media from the sense of news alerts, that's one thing. but how people present themselves and I bring up how are the Pope and Antonio Brown dealing with something similar? The Pope who was announced last week and I think it's cool how they have footage of Pope Leo at the White Sox game because he's American, he just seems more relatable

than any religious figure we've ever seen in our lifetime at least. Pretty much, yeah. I bring up the Pope only because his older brother is on social media talking about politics and he's pretty opinionated and it makes you realize

that even if you're the Pope, you might have a brother, an uncle, a parent who goes on social media and starts yap, yep, yep, yep, yep. Did you see what the Pope's older brother were saying about Nancy Pelosi? Let's just say not nice things. Things you would think a Pope's brother might not say.

So again... The Pope's brother is like Antonio Brown. No, but the Pope has to deal with social media. He's the Pope and he has to probably field questions. Like, hey, Pope Leo, like, no, your older brother. You see what he's doing? and Antonio Brown came out and said, oh, just so you know, in real life,

I love Tom Brady. Don't look at my X and all that, which makes you wonder, X meaning Twitter. Don't look at my Twitter. Do some people deem social media as like, that's just not real life? That's the imaginary me.

You know, I have an example. I think other people say it's the real me, and I think that's what we get. I think that's on us, and we're getting trolled all the time. It's on the, like, gen X generation for not reading through the BS, where a younger generation,

a slightly younger generation, the weaniels or millennials. Not millennials, like 40 now. Gen Z. Yeah, slightly younger than us. Okay. View it as like, who cares? Meaning like your parents, right?

Remember like your family members wouldn't accept certain people because they really, as friends on Facebook because they're really not friends? Like our buddy, our buddy Stanley T. Did he used to do that? Our buddy Stan will be like, yo, this guy, friend requested me. But we're not really that tight. I'm like, yeah, Stan, it's a Facebook request. Stanley T? Stanley Tucci?

No, no. Again, an older generation would take things too literally, as do we sometimes when it's on social media. So that's us. That's like shame on us, bad on us when a younger, a slightly younger generation looks at it like nonsense. I get say and do what I want and it has no ramifications. It doesn't matter. It's not a real reflection of me or my family members. It's garbage.

It's trash. It's all fake because they grew up knowing how BS it all is. When we put an ounce of stock of reality into it still and credibility into it. So the Pope and AB. How are they dealing with the same thing? The Pope. People asking about his brother tweeting about Nancy Pelosi.

Antonio Brown being asked about that way. You said you love Tom Brady, but what about your Twitter? He says it's not real life. So you got to ask yourself, do you look at social media other than officially verified news accounts? Do you look at social media as real life? And I'd like to think it's a weird exaggerated falsehood. I do not see your Mother's Day photo

and assume life is all sunshine and rainbows, right? All right. Cool. We'll see you guys tomorrow. I'll read it at you, baby. See you in the Promise Land. Later, guys. This is Bowman.

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 get to ask other people to do podcasts. We get to ask other people questions because we're sick and tired of being asked questions. Well, sick and tired is a strong way to put it. But, you know. Tired and sick. Tired and sick.

And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is. Getting a new one put up in its place. I'm Akela Hughes, and Rebel Spirit season two is about both of those things.
