overpressed on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. And we be rocking out. Let's go. We are live hump day here in Los Angeles. Steve Covino, Rich Davis, super pumped about all the cool videos he's going to watch tomorrow. The videos that come out with the schedule release, put a tingle in my dingle.

I love the NFL. I think the social media teams are great. I was talking about the freakoff videos. What are you talking about? Don't say creepy things. It's the freak off rage. People might not realize you're joking. We got midweek major this hour, guys.

Midweek major, the biggest stories in the world of sports and pop culture. We decide are they midweek major, but we're in the middle of a big story today. does she have shoes? Is it shoeless Regina Jackson? Regina Jackson happens to be Jaden Daniel's mom. And she is infamous, which is more than famous, for sort of being way protective of her son. And that's a good thing,

especially in this crazy world we live in of freakoffs and debauchery. When there's vultures out there, she's protecting her son. That's a great thing. But sometimes it looks a little over. If you guys remember, and I was just reminded of this, Danny G. When J.D. Daniels was court side and Juju Watkins was sitting there. She was like, nope, sorry.

Nope. Listen, Juju Watkins is not some trifling hussy sitting in the lobby of like a draft or something. She's like, she's a star, you know. She's like, that's my seat. But she's also sort of like all over her son sometimes. So maybe. She hangs on his shoulder a little bit too much, almost like his girlfriend. Or you can say smother.

Right? She's not necessarily his mother, his smother. She's a helicopter mom. I like that. I'll give you an old reference. Yeah, she's like a Beverly Goldberg. Remember the Goldbergs? Yeah, she was a smother.

And she was smothering, but she is also his manager, and she's proud of that. But she says something that's interesting, so pay close attention. Jaden Daniels, NFL superstar, is 24 years old. She refers to him as a kid. Now, again, she's coming from a great place. But, you know, he is a professional. professional and he's playing in a men's league. Do you want your mom calling you a kid in front of everybody too?

That's something else I think is a little interesting. But in reality, do you think he's just a kid? And then we posed a question, well, when are you a man? Absolutely. You know, like Raggy Balboa. You're like, yo, smells meanly. When are you a man? Now, of course, the obvious answer.

I still feel like a grown man boy. Dumbies. I don't know if age has anything to do with it. I'm not saying dummies, rudely. I'm just saying, like, you know, the obviously answers. answer is, guys, when he turns 18, he's a man, he can be drafted, he can buy his cigarettes, he can do this or that or whatever. Yeah, that's legally, legally shm-meaning.

But I'm asking, like, when are you a man? And two things come to mind. Regionally, I think this changes a lot and what type of career path you get into changes this a lot. On the East Coast where we grew up, real estate's expensive. It's not easy to make it on your own. So there's a lot of people whose family have the mentality of, and a lot of immigrant families. Like, you're always welcome here.

You can be here as long as you want until you get your feet on the ground. And there's plenty of people that live at home. A lot of Italian families. Into their 20s. In fact, not to call you out, but Kavino's mom did his laundry until he was 28. I mean, that's a lie. But I was living there for a long time. So I'm sorry, 27? Yeah, I mean, give me a little credit. Sorry, 27. I bought my first home

when I was 27, so I was living at home. And to prove it again, you know the Fusco show on IHeart Radio? Of course. They kicked you guys off the air. Yeah, they do their show from their mom's basement. Okay, Tony. Good one, Tony. You're done. They're Eagles fans in their parents' basement doing the show and they're like 65 years old. So, yeah, regionally, culturally, there's differences. When do you become a man? But take a close listen to what Regina Jackson, Jaden Daniels' mom, said about her baby boy. He's a kid. And I don't know why we stop parenting kids at a certain age,

but that's for a later show. The thing is, is that. he doesn't know what he doesn't know and he knows football because what he's been doing and he does it very well and he's been you know very acclimated in sports since he was young but he doesn't know the business world he doesn't know the predators or the vultures that could be out there and so he feels very comfortable at knowing that not only am I educated and qualified to do it I'm also his mom and you know the thing is I think we're changing the narrative that hasn't been out there so it looks a little different than what people are are used to because not only am I, you know, educated on that side. I'm also a certified agent,

but I'm also as business managers. So I'm dealing on a day-to-day basis. Like we have a marketing team that I hire, but I'm dealing with creative teams because, again, it's how I want Jayden to be positioned in the world. I don't want him to be positioned, you know, just to go grab a brand deal for the money. Like I want him to be positioned in the world, you know, for the longevity. So there's a lot of stuff that we don't do because it doesn't align with our brand. and what he wants to do. Man, very, very loving, yet you could argue, overly involved mom. I mean, Beyonce, Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears.

We've seen pop stars and other people have their parents as their manager. And I wish the opposite for Jaden Daniels, but usually those things eventually wear on the relationship. That doesn't usually law. She sounds a little LeVar ball to me, like a little too involved. I mean, she's a lovely woman. I just feel like, yo, I love my kids. And I can see where her mindset's at. My kid is a generational talent.

I take care, my kid. It's, you know, it's, I wants to look out for your kid, wants to do everything right. Right. Yeah. The intentions here are beautiful and pure. Yeah. But Rich walking around like Emmy's bodyguard when she's 24. That would be strange.

It would be a bit much about it was, you know, hanging around my daughter. You're right. As like her agent and bodyguard when she was old. Everybody out there looking out for their kid, you got to commend that. It's a beautiful thing. That's great and all. My only criticism is this. Referring to him as a kid when he's a 24-year-old man in a very alpha-driven game and world.

You think he's a kid still at 24? Man, in the grand scheme of things. But do you want your mom calling you out like that in front of everybody? And then again, we posed a question one more time. So when are you a man? I heard a really morbid thing one time. And I think it was a listener of our show that called in one time, Rich. And they said something about they became a man when their parents died.

Because he always felt like he was their kid. And that's a morbid thought, a coming of age, sort of reality. Yeah, it's very sad, right? You feel like more of an orphan, I think, than anything. Little orphan spotty. A little orphan funk house. Yeah, a little orphaned. Funkhouse. That was one of my favorite curb

your enthusiasm quotes of all time. Funkhauser, the late grade Dave. Dave. No. Super Dave Oswald. Super Dave Osper. Yeah. What's his name? Funkhauser's name was God, how are we all blanking? Well, on Curve Your enthusiasm,

you're the one that brought it up, so you're the one that should be embarrassed. Stop calling us out. Bob Einstein. There it is. He's trying to convince Larry that he's an orphan. And Larry's like, you're an old guy. You're an orphan? Okay, little orphan funk house. Little orphan funk house.

So again, not to sound morbid or weird, but I remember when a caller said that to us, I was like, yeah, I guess that's pretty wild because you are someone's child, no matter how old you are. And then when they're gone, you're like, well, I guess I'm out here in this mean world all alone. I guess I'm my own man now. But I think this is more of when you're standing on your own two feet for the first time. You know, man, you're a professional, dude. Yeah, you're a young person in the grand scheme of love. But you're on your own out there.

I don't want my mom calling me like her little baby Boise when I'm trying to do a professional radio show. What do you guys equate to manhood? Like I think about responsibilities. Yes. You know, so the first time, Rich, yeah, the first time you pay a utility bill. To me, that's when you become an adult. You may be mentally an idiot, but if you're, if you got responsibilities

and you're a responsible person with things to pay for, yeah, you're your own man. I had written down that if you're still on your parents' cell phone plan or car insurance plan It's hard to call yourself like, I'm a man You're a man, your mom pays your state form Your dad plays Geico And your own mom's Verizon bill

What if they're still on the plan rich But they zell their parents every month No, that's get your own plan You know you're man, I do that for my mom My mom's on my plan because I try to be a good son That's what you know So I don't think I think if your parents are paying your bills

I'm not quite sure you have man status yet. Right. You still got one foot in the nest. I do want to remind everyone one thing. These kids that we are a little tough on at times, listen, it's very easy to want to pick on Chodor Sanders and some of these young cats out of the draft. They are kids.

And I feel that way. When you're 20, 21, 22, if you're 40-something, they're half your age. Think of all the living you did in your 20s and 30s to get to 40-ish, right? That's a hell of a lot of living and learning. Yeah, but 21 and 24 are a little different. Jaden Daniels has been in the NFL. These kids coming out of the draft, they're just getting out of school.

Yeah, I know. No way are they men. Those are kids. Covino, I know this doesn't apply to everyone because, as we have said, your mom spoiled you for a long time. Still does probably. She does. But that wasn't the case.

We've talked about this on our show before that our generation, it was more of everything revolving around the parents pretty much. Like kids are to be seen and not heard. and that changed with our generation. So we should give ourselves props because we have been really good, I think better with children, right? And so kids now are,

they don't want freedom the way we did. We couldn't wait. Most of us couldn't wait to get our own freedom and get out of the house. Kids nowadays, most of them that I've seen and in my own house,

they are holding on longer. Yeah. They don't want to give their driver's license until they're like 20. You know, it's so funny you would say that. I was itching to get my license in New York. Yeah, I had mine lickety split. In New York at 17, I know it's 16 in a lot of places. I was itching.

Like the day of my birthday, I was, you know, like, driver's test. That's when I got my license. Kids now are like, I'll take an Uber and mom or dad will drive me. I'll walk there. It's so many factors, right? These kids are broke. They can't afford a car. Uber is available.

It's a thing. So there's a lot of factors. But I agree with you, Rich. And Danny, you're paying your own bills are capable of paying your own bills. Yeah, your own, man. You may be immature. most men are can you know there's two types of parents though and i think i'm safe in saying this the type that are like you're welcome here as long as you want yeah and then the other parents

that are like you're 18 you pay rent or get out the girl i'm a ding don't and i'm you know i'll be honest i i moved out right after college but my parents i could have stayed there and they would have been like yeah sure i have friends that are like you know you're out of college you're paying rent And other parents like, we're, you can stay here. Right. Yeah. You know what? Another nail on the head because I agree.

There's two types out there. Luckily, I had the ladder who allowed me to stay there for way too long and save money to purchase my own home one day, you know? So if you have, or how about this? You have the ability to pay for your own home and you're employing your mom? I don't know if you're a kid. No. Guess what? You know why your mom has a career?

and that's not to come down on Regina Jackson. She's doing a great job. Because she can throw a tight spiral. Yeah, we're just speculating on well, when are you really a man based on what she said, okay? So, you know, we're dissecting her words. Yeah. And that's not fair. But

if he's employing his mother, I'd say he is not only a man, he's the man. Hey, Danny. You're a great dad and a great stepdad. You were talking about how your stepson's, you're almost shocked that, what are they, 19 and 20 and 21?

Yeah, 20 and 22. 20 and 22. And you were saying how you're surprised they don't want to like maybe split their own apartment so they can bring girls back and do things. They're cool like just living at your place. Yeah, the middle son who's 20, he is in Oklahoma sooner. He just drove home. He made the long, what was it, two and a half day drive, whatever, to get home.

And he's going to plunk down and be at our place all summer. Now he's going to work part time. Does he still eat gushers? Are there food overlaps? You guys, he was watching NBA playoffs eating sunflower seeds on the couch last night. Oh, man. See, I don't know. They're great guys, right?

But are they men if they're still living that life? And the thing is, our 22-year-old, he's about to graduate from Calhulu this Friday. Okay. Congrats. Yeah, that's awesome. It's awesome. But again, right now he's at the dorms there. He's bringing girls back.

He's living the life. They're both going to hunker down at our place over the summer, though, because obviously at graduation Friday he's out of the dorm. Danny Crowded House. But my wife raising them always told them, as long as you're in school, you can stay here rent-free. That's a pretty cool rule, though. Yeah, that's a, I think

that's just a parent looking out for their kid. Now his son's going to take one semester, one class of semester, like, just to be like, what? I'm a student, mom. Danny Gee was like, yeah, that was cool until I became their stepdad. Can I think boom, like, especially boomer parents, maybe Gen X parents, but like my parents are, our baby boomers and it was a lot easier to buy a house back in the day.

You know how to joke about how like houses now are worth like half a million to a million dollars. Then boomers got their house like in the 1970s for like $1,700 and a bag of rice. No, yeah. So it's like stay at our home with which we paid the mortgage off 25 years ago. We've had this conversation many of times in the past I was saying. But our parents' generation like of a young kid now had my dad's job and my mom worked on and my mom would take off for a little while when kids were born and then go back to work.

If my family replicated what they did now, no way on planet Earth would they have had a house on Long Island. It's a different time. Age doesn't have a lot to do with this. It really doesn't when you think about it. My dad at 21 had his own home and kids, right? That's when he had me. 21 years old.

So was he a man then? Yeah. He had his own home. He had a family. He had his own family. Jaden Daniels, does he have kids? He doesn't, right? No.

I'm a question for me. Are you kidding? His mom won't let him have a real girlfriend. He won't even let him sit next to Jujuwon. His mom took the door off his room. Just wanted to make sure. Does he have a sign over his bedroom that says Jaden's room? Because I drink on a football.

Jaden. I need to know. You know, hold on. At 24, a professional with endless means, and connections and such a bright future, I'd say Jane Daniels is a man. Yeah, he's a man. Danny, I have one question about your son's 20 and 22,

both, you know, bright futures, college kids, one graduating. When they are home, are they like, Mom, what's for dinner? Do they expect you guys to supply food? Oh, for sure they do. 100%. And it's funny because the 20-year-old yesterday, he asked his mom, he said, what would you eat for dinner? Did you make something for dinner?

Like they don't say what's for dinner. They just hint around like, okay, you could feed me now. And look, that's fine. If you're at the house and you're at least making an effort to pitch in around the house and they're good kids. So like you have good kids. You're not going to say, yeah, you've got to get out of here once you turn a certain age. But you're right. Rich, when I was 18, my mom said, you're not my responsibility anymore.

You're now an adult. It's just not like that anymore. Did you feel like a man, though? Because when I finally got my first home and like officially moved out after college, I went back to my parents. 27, I didn't feel like a man. I feel like a man boy who had my own bachelor pad. You were spoiled. I'd say when I became a dad, in my personal reality, when I became a dad, I was faced with real life adult situations.

I will give you to I'd say when I became a man until I was 30-something years old. I'll give Camino credit. I'm like Pinocchio. Covino. I'm a little wooden boy. know deserves some credit because while he did live at his parents until because listen housing in New York and New Jersey expensive while he did live at his parents' house after college for quite a while

he told he lived in the basement he told girls that he rents to old people upstairs women rich women I thought that was always your can we don't bring some hot girl home from the club and be like yeah don't don't mind this I rented this old couple upstairs so why don't they live in the basement you live upstairs well don't ask don't ask you know wait why are you in the pictures with these people. They're clinging, weird tenants. That would be my motivation if I was their age, because I think back to when I had my first apartment, I was 18 at my first radio station job, and I wanted my privacy. And I think that's a big difference nowadays, is these

kids are used to sharing space with a lot of other kids, and they don't really care all that much about, you know, the freedom that I explained we wanted so bad. Was it true? When you grew your first chin strap, that's when you felt like a man? well for me that was fifth grade Danny's like no it was upon my third Raiders tattoo yeah it poses the question guys and again I'm sorry that Regina Jackson

took any heat that wasn't the point but it was what she said about her son I get it her son will always be her baby and a kid in her eyes but he's really 24 years old young in life but he's he's a man well hey hold on one thing one more point here Imagine being born in your 1900 and you're like going to the Great War at as a 17 or 18 year old, you're a man then. Yeah.

I think about like. They looked like weathered and old back then at that age, you know? It's just they aged a lot faster. Aaron Judge just hit a rocket of a home run. Yeah, buddy. Like exit velocity might have been 200 miles an hour. Sorry to interrupt. Like that ball came up the bat.

They turned to left field and it already hit the wall. Like the high wall. Oh, man. You were talking great war here. But, oh, to wrap up what you said. Speaking of bombs, back to Sam, good. Yeah. I think about that greatest generation.

Mike, your grandparents and mine fought in a war, came home, had kids got a job that they kept for like 50 years, and then retired. They live such a different life than our parents, us, and our future children and everything. Like, they were in Germany, shooting people, came home and then got a job as a mechanic for 50 years and had a beautiful life.

Can you imagine an 18-year-old nowadays storming the beach? beaches of Normandy. No. Not without taking selfies. Normandy. Oh, my God. While they're playing Pokemon Go, yeah. Normandy.

Again, I'm Kavino. That is Rich. Are you ready? Well, there is. Spotty's ready. Midweek Major. Covino and Rich

get you over the middle of the week with Midweek Major. I love that. We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas, and it's like the kids say. That's so midweek, definitely major. CNN scoring.

Midweek Major. I gotta go really fast because we got a ton to do in the show still. All right, before I hand things over to the number one and only host of this segment, like to roll the two big red love dice over there in the main studio. I just rolled the four. Nine.

Wow. Rich goes first. Oh, Rich actually won. That means he gets first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains, New Jersey, Spotty Boy. All right. Big rest in peace to one of the most infamous, which we know is more than famous alligators out there. And that's Morris, the alligator.

The happy Gilmore star known for biting off Chubbs Peterson's hand. And didn't he happy Gilmour actually wrestle him too? Didn't he like tackle him? I believe he did. Yeah, passed away this week. Sandler himself posted on his Instagram account, paying tribute to the legendary reptile. He said, we're all going to miss you.

You could be hard on directors, makeup artist, costumers, really anyone with arms or legs. But I know you did it for the ultimate good of the film. He also went on to say, I know you're not, I know your character's decapitation in the first movie provided you partisive or precluded your participation in the sequel. But we all appreciated the fruit basketball. an hilarious note. So maybe they'll pay tribute

to him in Happy Gilmore 2, which is coming out July 20th. See you later, Alligator. There it is. Thanks, Isaac. In a while, crocodile. I think this is major news. I mean, an alligator bit my hand on. Oh my God. They didn't let you play on the tour because you're black?

No, because an alligator bit my hand off. Bit my hand up. My alligator, bit my hand. Oh, my God. What do you call an alligator wearing a vest? No. What, Steve? An investigator. Stop it. Listen, I think it was a great movie.

I'm going to steal that. We're excited about the sequel, June 25th on Netflix. July, July 25th, July 25th. I'll have to wait even longer. But a really cool scene. The late great Carl Weathers got his hand bit off by this damn thing. Is it midweeker major? I said it was major.

Well, I'll tell you what. The only thing weaker than my joke is this story. Oh, come on. Stupid alligator from a movie. Alligators have been around since the dinosaur days. 91. Is that even old for an alligator? Was he eight?

I thought he was 80. How old is this stupid alligator? He was old. He was an elderly gator. Yeah, but don't they live like a long time? Morris, the gator, right? Whatever, rogue alligator. There's nothing cute about an alligator.

Beat it. Who cares? Damn, alligator. Rest and peace. All right. Chiefs are getting what's labeled the full last dance treatment from ESPN. So during this this week's Disney upfronts, you know, where they announced the programming coming out for all the networks. ESPN announced it will be releasing a new series.

a new series called The Kingdom, which is a multi-part docu-series chronicling the 2024 Kansas City Chiefs season as they try to achieve their never-before-seen three-peat. So Patrick Wilmes appeared at the announcement talking about how the six-episode series will have an unfiltered access into their lives on and off the field. Showcase the true heart of the city, the team, and what it takes to be a member of the Chiefs. No specific people have been listed on the press release as far as who will be involved. but I'm sure it will involve Kelsey, obviously Mahomes, Kelsey, Swift, all these people. So it will be available on ESPN and Disney Plus later this year. Midweeker major.

Mid, come on. I'll tell you why it's mid. I'll tell you why it's mid because they didn't achieve the three Pete. So you're going to be watching this. It's like, you know, when I watch Receiver on Netflix, which was great, when I watch Receiver and they followed around my dudes George Kittle and Debo at the time. And you watch their journey and they fall short. It's just sort of like, it's like a movie with a not happy ending.

So I think it's sort of whack. The kingdom. It needs some majestic sort of Game of Thrones theme. I'm tuning in, bro. She's starring. Yeah, starring Patrick Mahomes and Kelsey and all the pressure they have to redeem themselves from that crappy game they left off on. But that's the culmination of it. Yeah, but I think this is great.

I love it. I can't wait. I can't wait to watch anything Chiefs related. Patrick Mahomes is superstar. You can watch without me. Yeah, I'll be watching. All right. A minor league stadium employee going viral for his bare handed catch. And no, it's not of a baseball.

During Sunday night's game of the Canapolis Cannonballers and the Carolina Mudcats. In the bottom of the third, the cannonballers mascot, which is a dog, ran on the field and popped a squat to relieve himself near home plate. Well, a stadium employee who was charged with the cleanup ran out to grab the, you know, whatever, the pile. And rather than grabbing like a pooper scoop or scooping it up and something, he'd. bare handed it. And there's video video with viral this. The internet went crazy. He grossed out by what they saw. Someone said, yeah, he barehanded

that grounder. Like, they need to fire the guy immediately. So, hopefully they use this as a way to just get a pooper scooper. Why don't they have one? Major. Major. That's a heavy major? I mean, no, it's the worst story. It does remind me of that Paul Giamatti scene in billions where he was all arrogant and he made the person

pick it up with their hand after their dog. Oh, I love that. Listen, Sometimes you got to do what you got to do You ever take your dog for a walk and you have to find a huge leaf because I go my god I forgot something happens This is a mid story I'll take it That's so mid

So much to call Mike Rowe because this sounds like a dirty job There it is Oh my god I'm watching the video right now right well hold on It's mid because all right A dog went to the bathroom What can you do? What makes it what makes it mid And a fun story is the guy

Bare handed it That's a what I said. He's doing it. It's timely. He's raised by chimpanzees. He had a scooping device with his left hand, but he cupped it into the scooping device with his right hand. So for that, I give

it mid. Like, wow, that's wild. I'll take it. Thanks. All right. That's so mid. Tom Brady shared the details of a special gift he once received from fellow goat Michael Jordan. He appeared this week. Check it out on the debut episode of a new show called Card Shopping

where he like goes, shops around for like cards, baseball cards, basketball cards, all that kind of stuff. Well, when he spotted an MJ card, he shared a story about how Jordan once sent him 120 pairs of Air Jordans from Jordan himself. He said he always wanted to collect sneakers, but always had these various deals. Once he didn't have one, reached out to a friend who golfs with Jordan, Jordan's found out they're the same size. They're both a size 13.

So Jordan was like, two days later, sent him a bunch of his own Jordans. So 120 pairs of Jordan's Brady was like, I don't know what to do with all these. Thank Jordan. Brady thanked Jordan, of course. But he said it was just a cool moment to actually receive Jordans directly from Michael Jordan. Midweeker Major.

How old are you take this one? What do you think? It is major, but I do have a question. Are these worn shoes? You know, I couldn't figure out that detail, but I think they were. I mean, I imagine that would add extra value, but I don't want someone's old used shoes. Especially when Tom Brady.

Maybe it was like a combination. Because the fact that they wear the same. size. That made me think that it was actually a pairs of it. Yeah, I was thinking it was a combination. Yeah, but I guess he doesn't really wear that he probably has so many. I think this is awesome. I mean, two goats bonding over sneakers and he has Jordan's little, a part of his private collection. I think he's a mid story, but leaning towards major. I think he's major because, you know, you're talking about two legends. And I think Michael Jordan doesn't bump into too many people that have more accolades in the championship world than him, right? I mean, I think it's

laughable, though, that Tom Brady's like, I don't know where to put them all. I don't know. Pick a room, buddy. Yeah. Yeah. It's not like he has a one-bedroom apartment. Where do I put them? I'll put them on my yacht. My storage unit? All right. Thank you, Spotty. All right, thanks, thanks. Let's go to Ilo.

Isaac Lowingcron. That's for all that time, guys. All right, fellas. Baltimore Ravens running back. Derek Henry's agreed to a two-year, $30 million extension with 25 mill guarantee. The NBA today find Golden State's Draymond Green, $50,000 for making an inappropriate comment questioning the integrity of game officials

during game three of the Western Conference semifinals on Saturday. The comment came when Green wondered aloud about the point spread of the game, which was at 5 and a half. Coming up tonight at 9.30 Eastern Game 5 from Minneapolis with the Timberwolves leading Golden State three games to 1. Up first, though, at the top of the hour, game 5 of the Eastern Conference semifinals from Boston with the Knicks leading the Celtics three games to one. In Major League Baseball, Aaron Judge, his 15th home run of the year, measuring 444 feet

on the top of the eighth inning to give the Yankees a three-two lead at Seattle. Right now, they're in the top half of the ninth inning. Arizona's Cattell Marte, two home runs. They've got an eight-six lead at San Francisco in the top of the ninth inning. And the Minnesota Twins are on a 10-game winning streak after sweeping a double-headed today at Baltimore, guys. You know, the Cardinals finally lost. They weren't a nine game winning streak.

So it's so early that teams can get hot. And yeah, listen, man, I'm looking at that game with Arizona and San Francisco. Danny G., who in the West do you fear? Is it the Padres? Do you think the Giants will fade Arizona's over 500 that you have a damn good division? Dude, every team is stacked in that division. I think San Diego and the Dodgers are both going to win 105 plus games. Remember like one year in the 2000s that happened to?

They were two teams. So we'll see what happens. Well, you know, we got to do Camino. We're running late. But I think we should give away something. Something we do every Wednesday. You know Mike who runs this place? Who?

Mike. His words of wisdom. Here's how it's played. You just have to repeat what big Mike says. Verbatim. Verbatim. Word for word. Repeat his words of wisdom.

And if you get it right, you want a CNR sweet. And if you think you could do it, 877. 99 on Fox. Here we go. Big Mike. It's time for the guy that runs this place. Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place. He is not in charge of everything.

He has no power over really anybody here. He does not run this place. It's Big Mike's Words of Wisdom on a Wednesday. There are no such things as fake breasts. If you can touch them, they're real. Man, that's an easy one. You can win a prize if you repeat that. It's got to be verbatim.

All right. No mistakes. Verbatim. Mike's Wednesday, words of wisdom. If you could repeat that, word for word, you win a swiggy.

You want to play it one last time? No, no, no. I think, yeah, one time doozy. I don't think you replay it. No, no. All right. You know, we'll take your feedback.

And, of course, you will be able to guess by reading that word for word. Mike's Words of Wisdom. More can be known rich. Next. Hey, it's us, the Jonas Brothers, and guess what? We have some big news. What's the news, new?

Huge news. We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a... We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special.

So how 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, 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.

Yep. And if you could repeat it verbatim, That's how you take home, the coveted Swiggy. All right, we're going to go to the studio lines here. Get that music ready. IOSAM as Ryan in Wisconsin is first to try to get this CNR Swiggy. What's up, you cheesehead? What up, Ryan?

What's up, bro? All right, let the music simmer for just a second, okay? Let it establish, as they say. Okay, I'll give it a second. There are no such thing as fake breasts. if you can touch them, they are real. The awkward part is how he has to explain this to his wife that he won a Swiggy on the radio.

Honey, I repeated some bozo that works at Fox Sports. Ryan, congratulations. We are going to mail out a shiny new CNR Swiggy water bottle to Wisconsin for you. Thank you. Thank you. Appreciate you listening to Kavino and Rich. Enjoy the Swiggy. And again, we do this every Wednesday, give way prizes.

And you learn a little word of wisdom here and there. So what did you have to repeat? Oh, some bozo saying, there's no such things. I love that we called them things. No such things. That was where I thought people were going to get caught up. The fact that he pluralized things. Hey, man.

That was a quick one. Thank you, Big Mike, who runs this place. Now, two reminders. Reminder number one. Our Kavino and Rich convention, our fun time, good time, is going to be in Vegas. Friday and Saturday, the 20th and 21st, Sunday being the 22nd, we'll be there as well. But the big events are going to be on Friday and Saturday, the 20th and 21st, looking at everything from a pool party to a live broadcast to, you know, drinking, meeting a lot of people.

Karaoke and drinking and fun and all antics. Cabaret girls. You said pool, right? Yeah. Okay, just making sure. So let me tell you, book the ticket, spots got details coming soon on. everything from hotels and discount codes and all this stuff. But June 20th to the 22nd, that weekend, Friday and Saturday being big events for Kavino and Rich, we'd love to see you.

Everyone's invited more than merrier. If you've known us for years or you're new to the show, it doesn't matter. We love to hang with everyone. We're a really accessible show that loves to just meet all the people that support us. So again, June 20th to the 22nd, big events in Vegas. See you there. Note number two. We're about 10 minutes away from Nick Celtics.

did the Knicks put them out of their misery tonight? Or are they going to move this? I just saw Paul Pierce giving a pep talk to the Celtics. They have hearts of champions, though. It's true. I mean, Boston is favored, Kavino. The game is in Boston. They're favored by six.

How are they favored? Home? Home. No one's won at home. It's been road dogs. I know. So home? Home and because they're home in desperation.

And then you wonder, you know, Isaac was telling us how the Minnesota twins have won. 10 in a row. Right down the block, the T-Wolves could close it out tonight. Their 10-point favorites, you know, Golden State. When Steph went down, they lost their mojo. And I think they lost their season, unfortunately, with that. So I think we're getting closer and closer to the Eastern and Western Conference

finals being, you know, Nick's Pacers, which will be, like you said, historically fun, right? Oh, absolutely. And then T-Wolves thunder. And then it's a matter of, do you word for Anthony Edwards? Or do you think SGA all along, it's just his to lose? So some great games tonight. and if you need a show to watch I mentioned this on Weekend Hobnobbin

I started watching the Four Seasons on Netflix, Steve Correll, Tina Faye, and Domingo Coleman honestly it's really an easy watch when episodes are like 28 minutes you got me because sometimes you watch like Last of Us they're like an hour plus episodes

and I'm like oh when I'm looking for something short to watch there's something called TikTok I don't know if you ever check that out but yeah that's really easy sometimes just easier before you go to bed Spot have you watched the four seasons I have not started it yet.

You'll like it. Rich, we liked it so much that Brenda and I binged it, the whole thing. We're done. Four seasons? Yeah. So good. It gets so cringy at certain parts, but in a funny way. So I've been really enjoyed it.

Four? No, there's just one so far. Oh, okay. One season. Now you're confusing. Wait, there's Frankie Valley in the show? Not at all. I'm so confused.

Not at all. And of course, tomorrow, what are the four series? Subway series begins. So I'm super pumped about that. Met's Yankees. We have lots to talk about. And before we go, Rich, got to remind people, Draft Kings, the NBA playoffs. I told you about my pick six for Major League Baseball.

Well, if you want to go with the NBA, because there's options there as well, we're talking about the NBA. Who do you like tonight? Do you like Brunson, 27 and a half points? Going, Nick's Brunson with the over. He's a big game player. If I were to do this, I would go under 27 and a half. I mean, because if you think that Celtics are going to just put their,

then again, he keeps scoring like 35, 35. They want to just put, they want to put this away already. Anthony Edwards, over 27 and a half to put away Golden State? You tell, I'm going to give you three people. You tell me over under and we'll throw it in there for you. I always like the big game player stepping up when it matters. Brunson, 27 and a half. Yeah.

Over? I think so. And I would take Edwards too. Anthony Edwards. All right. This is the game. What do they have Jimmy? Buckets.

Yeah. I was going to call him Jimmy playoffs, but he's been Jimmy under the weather. Jimmy 26 and a half. He needs a huge game for the Warriors to stay alive. So you're going, Jimmy Buckets over? Yeah. Oh, you know, I'll throw that in. I'll throw that one in myself just for fun.

So you want to go over on Butler, Edwards, and Brunson. You're saying it's a big game, big player night. Yes. All right, well, hey, just let everyone know that pick six draft kings is a lot of fun. I've been doing it, and I'm enjoying it. NBA and Major League Baseball. You can do it on any sport. All right.

Have a great night. Any other final words before we say farewell? They changed the date for Crawford-Kinello. It was Friday, September 12th, Crawford-Kinello in Vegas. Now is Saturday, September 13th. Doesn't that make more sense anyway, though? It does, but now it conflicts with UFC 320 Noce. And Dana White was supposed to be involved with the boxing promotion.

So now is he really? Either way, Canelo Crawford, date change Saturday, September 13th. All right. Well, hey, have a great Wednesday night. Have a great hump night. But there she, baby. See you in the Promise Land. Goodbye. Later, guys.

Hey, guys, it's us. The Jonas Brothers. I'm Joe. I'm Kevin. And I'm Nick. And guess what? We created our own podcast called, Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it.

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