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.

Cheese Steak Sammy. Look at Bo Benson. Just decked out Eagles gear. What a sight to be seen. Bo is so pumped. Bo's hanging out. What I love about both that works here, he has multiple teams. I believe he has six teams he likes, which means he has a 20, no, what is it, six out of, six out of 34?

Yeah, six out of 32. Whatever he has a good percentage. What league has 34 teams? None of them, Sam. What? None of them. Have I been saying the NFL has 34 teams for years now? You may have.

Wow. But he has a lot of teams, higher odds. You know, there's a very popular Mandela effect that says. there were a lot of kids at a certain point, certain generation that were taught there were 52 states. And I'm one of them. Are you serious? Yeah, when I was a kid, at one point,

we were told there was 52 states. Look it up on social media. There's like millions of people like, hey, does anyone remember this? And I'm like, I do. I'm one of those. Are you stupid or something? I know it's 50 you ass clown.

I know that. But I'm telling you what I was told as a little boy in grade school. I'm positive of it, and I'm not the only guy. Why it's a viral mandela. Tell me your teacher was like, Stephen, there's 52 states. Not only am I telling you. Let me repeat. Read the words that are coming out in my mouth.

Millions of people also, for some weird reason, remember, and it is also in very famous movies where people said it. So I was like, shh. Okay. Then you know what? Careful now. I'm not saying there were ever 52 states. I'm telling you what there was a certain generation of kids that were told this.

Did you ever hear that, learn that song, 50 nifty United States It was never 52-nifty two United States But the point is Can you perform it now? There's no 34 teams Shout them, scout them

Tell all about them Dan by everyone What up TB? No I actually I think you're right I think like some In 86 for like six months There was a North Vermont And a South Vermont

And then New Hampshire's like It was just like for six months In 86 Yeah South New Hampshire South New Hampshire And New Hampshire Thanks for backing me up Dan

Thanks for adding on to that joke. Thank you. That was the Topper. Appreciate it. Topper's pizza. Can help himself. Please double rim shot yourself.

We're Kvino and Rich, the worldwide leaders of nonsense. And I saw this stat and I got to give credit, but I related to it. I got to say props to KFC from Barstool because he brought this up. He says he was early on in the trend, but Rich and I also have to say, hey, so were we. and we share the same exact reason as to why. You're not, you're not alone, KFC. He's also a Mets fan like I am, so he's probably patiently wondering what the hell's going on with Pete Alonzo.

He's not. We're all on the same train track of life, the same train track of thought. We're around the same age too. So I don't even think he's 40 yet. He said that 70% of people, stats are out, 70% of people use subtitles to watch their

programming to watch their favorite TV shows. 70% of people. That's like a record high. I don't, first of all, believe that at all. And he says subtitles, but we have to say, wait a second, hold up. It's not subtitles. It's close captioning, because there is a difference. Yeah, subtitles are like for a foreign film. Right. We're talking close captioning if we want to be accurate about it, right? But we do say subtitles for whatever reason. I mean, you say it.

I mean, I'm not the only guy, Rich. In fact, millions of people say it, but it's incorrect. That's why I'm pointing it out. I thought there were 34 an NFL team, so let's just move on. So 70% of people, as the story goes, use subtitles. Not just KFC saying it. That's the story. Sam still is close captioning. Stam still acknowledges the Houston Oilers.

But the commonality that we share with KFC is, yeah, we all use it. But he said he started it when Game of Thrones became a thing. And that's exactly when it kicked in high gear for me too, because it was just so hard to hear and so hard to understand. There was so many names to figure out. That's when it became part of my just regular routine. Of course, I think I started before them, but that's when it became like the norm for me. Now, are we alone?

Is it still an old guy thing to you? I don't think so. I think we've all sort of realized that I get more out of the plot, more out of the dialogue when I'm able to read it and watch at the same time. At first, I thought it was like an old guy coming of age thing, like using the flashlight on your phone for the menu, or taking out your readers. and like, oh, let me see the dessert menu.

That's old guy crap. Horrible. Close captioning. Horrible. It's not a old or young person thing. I think it's an everybody thing. But the one difference I have with you, the only time I ever change it on my TV is for sports.

I don't want the words while I'm watching a game. So for me, sports, no close captioning. But if I'm watching some HBO Mac show or some Netflix or Hulu, I will turn on close captioning for a drama. but I will not turn it on for sports. You know, when Brenda and I first started using it, when we had a kid, because the kid takes a nap a couple times a day. There's times where you have to turn it down

and you're going to miss your show because you're chasing a kid around. And so for us, it's the way we won't miss as much as we normally would. And if you're trying to be quiet because of a little kid around. That's a good layer. That is if you got more kids are playing with your toys. Boys and they're making toys and you don't want to miss anything. Honestly, it's, it's to me, a great addition to what you're watching. And again, you appreciate it more.

I'm going to blow your mind, though. Game of Thrones started when? Because that's when we as a show and we as people really dove into subtitles or close captioning. The other day, I was shocked to find out Walking Dead started in 2010. I feel like Game of Thrones 2017? No, before that. 2014,

2014. I'm sorry, what? 2011. Oh, wow. So, you know, it was a very visually dark to look at the show. Hard to hear stuff. So we threw on the close captioning.

We appreciated the show. We got into it. Appreciate it, again, the script, the writing of it. You learn the characters better that way. And I've never looked back. The only difference between Rich and I, is I do keep it on during sports

because I don't want to miss anything like Danny G explained. You know, people are talking and I can't hear what the announcement. Some people don't want to hear what the announcers are saying, I get it, but I do. I want to hear what's going on. I want to be able to read it. If I'm at a bar, you know, we've been trained that way.

You see the close caption on at the bar when you're watching the game. I appreciate it. But it's at a record high, and we ask you, Fox Sports Radio Nation, are we alone here? Are you on board? Isn't an old guy thing?

And do you shut it off when the game is on? I leave it on all the time. There are two acceptable uses of closed captioning. You're either disabled and can't hear, or you're in a bar. So you don't ever use it? I never use it. Do you, you're the greatest vibe? I'm sorry.

Do you watch books or do you read books? So what I'm watching television, I watch things for a suspension of disbelief. I watch things for a suspension of disbelief. I want to be sucked into the dialogue. I want to see the visuals. I want everything to be there. If I'm watching some, like, let's say I'm watching a Marvel movie

and there's some awesome action going on. And then across the bottom, it's like, Captain America screams. You want to hit him, right? How lame is that? It does. It takes your eyes off of the visual. You have to go down, read. So you're like, up here, up here, up here, up here.

Let's hear of a girl with giant jigs, everybody. I think Spotty has a good point here. Hip, hip, hooray! Spotty's the greatest guy. Hip, hooray! It's like talking to a girl with giant jugs. Can I say that? Wow.

Sure. How? You already did. How did. Eyes up here, Mr. Eyes up here. It's like, where do you want to look? Do you want to look at her eyes?

You want to look at that? What do you look at? What are you looking at up and down? Up and down. Up and down. You know what's the problem, though, with closed captioning during sporting events? Is it covers up the down in distance, the score? That's what I was going to say.

Some TVs will let you adjust where the close captioning will position. Here's what I'm saying. If you need closed captioning, start by adjusting your audio because it's probably horrible settings. Get yourself a proper sound system. get something that you can adjust the EQ and push forward the voice because if you have to read your television you have other issues you know what I use close captioning for

so spots in the 30% he's like so barfeworthy he's in the 30 you can you can turn up your your TV all you want surround system all you want but if you're watching peeky blinders and you cannot understand every third word they're saying you need close captioned it's funny you say that so KFC does bring that up as another I guess classic example of why PPP Beaky blinders? Because these guys got the thick lilt.

They got the cockneyed accent. You can't understand what you're saying. It's great show. Now, they're making a movie for it. I think there's a clear answer and it's not no at all spot. And it's not, I need it all the time. There's a distinction and I feel like I'm 100% right. When you're watching.

Of course, because it's your point. So let's hear it. Yeah. But when you're watching a Game of Thrones-esque show, a peeky blinders, some type of drama where there's intense dialogue. that's low sometimes. To me, close captioning is such a great tool

now on these dramas. But if I'm watching a game, every word that Bucker Aikman or Burkhard or Brady saying is not crucial. Everything you need to see is on the screen. So I think sports are the one time I go to my TV and I'm like close captioning off.

You don't need it. I promise you, you don't need close captioning. Close captioning for the hearing and attention impaired. It's good for when officials call a penalty and you don't know what they're going to signal on the field and the announces already know and I that's I think when closed captioning but that's one you know little part of the game I just leave it on it's so unnecessary in sports I'm kind of team it on but the point is it covers too much it's at a record high of 70% of people so it's no longer this old guy thing if 70% of

people are using close captions more than ever before you know my dad does which is a great old guy tactic and he won't get mad at this because I think he knows it's a great old guy tactic it sounds good what is it my dad found Bluetooth headphones my dad my dad has because my dad will watch a lot of these dramas and he's like oh I can't hear half the dialogue my dad got some high end like Bluetooth it connects with his TV so he'll lay on his couch watch one of his shows and he says the headphones make it feel like you're in it so I mean if you're a sonos person which I think is a great system. I have the Sonos system. Sonos makes a spare headphones now.

You can have it as loud as you want. Oh, I didn't know that. I'm going to get a pair. I think it's great. All right. So we're getting a lot of phone calls. And again, I know people want to play Showtime of Holmes trivia, but we'll say what's up. Want to take some phone calls. Say hello to some some of our pals. Let's do it. 87799 on Fox. And of course,

you can hit us up at Covino and Rich. Enrich. Let's say hi, Dwight. Kentucky. You're on, buddy boy. Hey, what's happening, man? How y'all doing? I'm saying close captioning for dramas, but for sports, I don't think you need them. No, I don't need it for sports. Let me just say what they're real quick first because I'm an older guy. Yeah.

I remember when they used to teach that there were 52 states in the United States too. And I'm from originally in Wisconsin, and I want to say that part first. Okay, so everyone's saying I'm making that up. I'm telling you what they told us. You and Dwight. They did. They told us it was 52 states in the United States. I believed that for a long time.

They probably changed the curriculum or, you know, changed what they were telling kids and they never talked about it again. Maybe you lived in a different multiverse. Dude, I'm a little older than you. I'm telling you what I was told. What it says online, Covino, is that some schools included D.C. and Puerto Rico. That makes sense. And they're obviously not, you know, states, but that's what they would tell us.

What else, what? Okay, now, as far as the closed caption, this is why I look at the closed caption. Okay, if you watch it a regular, like, program, like a 30-minute comedy show, you know, those are those comedy sitcoms, okay, you don't need closed caption. But if you're watching a motion picture, the reason why I need Coles caption, because if you watch the motion picture, you know when there explosives and all that stuff, come on, they're too loud, so you have to turn those down. But then when you turn it down, when they have those intimate conversations in the movie,

you can't understand everything they're saying. So you have to turn on the Coles caption to keep that off for that. And then with the equalized, I got surround system, but there's no way you can adjust that. Yeah, dude, you're in kid. If you're watching, like, I'll look at an example would be like, top gun maverick, who, who, the planes and the surround sound and the music and everything. And then when like Tom Cruise is whispering, yeah, you can't be hearing all that. How about old movies, too, from like the 60s and 70s, those microphones weren't as good.

And sometimes it is hard to understand what people are saying. Yeah, see. Yeah, see. Yeah. Those are the glory days. Yeah, don't be missing. A silent film. I think they were saying, yeah.

Yeah. Oh, they says, yeah, see. Yeah, golden air. We're back in the golden air of silent films. Yeah. Watch with clothes capon. Yeah, see. With five E's C.

You listen here, see. Yeah. Yeah. I'm here again. Logan in Illinois. The stats came out. 70% of people use close captioning. My take is sports, you don't need it.

Movies and dramas. I'm all on. I think the other take ways how we often misuse the word subtitles, because, again, the story was subtitles. It's not subtitles. It's close captioning. I think that's a great reminder. Hi, Logan.

Yeah, so I'm with you. I don't think you need it for sports. But I'll just chime in and say, when I watch a movie on my own, I don't use them. When I watch a movie with my wife, I do. So she thinks I use them all the time. Because if we're watching, like, say, a horror movie every five seconds,

don't go in there. Don't do this. And I can't hear a single word. Oh, if you got a yappy movie. You needed them with your mom. With your mom. If you have a movie. Talks the whole time. If you have a movie pal that's yappy, yappy,

get my dad's headphones or close caption. I can't hear what Aririana Grande is saying right now, okay? But it is amazing to see how we shifted as a culture. though, where now it's the accepted go-to thing where you rarely use that button back in the day. Hold on. I'm being serious? Yeah. Where was the button back in the day?

Meaning like now you're on Hulu or Amazon or Netflix or HBO match. It was always close captioning for the hearing impaired though. But what I'm saying is you now just press pause on your TV and then right next to like fast-water rewind. The button was on the remote. Yeah, it used to be like the cable box. Yeah.

Would have it. And not all shows had closed captioning. They would tell you at the beginning, down the corner, they would say this program has closed captioning for your enjoyment. Right. CC with a little TV around it. Now it's just like an option that we take advantage. Yeah, Rich is right. You just pause it now and arrow down.

Yeah, boom. Let's say hi to Logan. Do we do Logan already? Logan, what's up? Logan Paul. Logan. I think you did. Let's go to Andy in Rhode Island.

Andy. Andy. Oh. Hey, what's up, buddy? Hey, got me go. No, I'm 37. I don't consider myself old or, you know, young, but, you know, I'm in between. Yeah.

Yesterday, me and my fiance, you know, we decided to check out this new Netflix show. And it started a post-caption when it came on. And I like to really immerse myself and see the things that are going on in the background. Reading and, you know, hearing what they're saying. I just see myself. Yeah, I can see that. Some might find it that way. Let's go to Texas, South Texas.

Bob, what's up, man? Kavino and Rich. Bob. Hey, Bob, let's see. Let's try again. Bob, you there? All right, let's go to Chad in Tennessee. What's up, Chad?

You do not need it for sports. Yeah, no way. I'm with you. Only at the bar for sports? Yeah, I can think about it. It is synonymous with the bar. Yeah, but the thing is, you know, you could take in a game without volume if you really needed.

The thing is I use it so often, Rich, I just leave it on. That's my point. So I'm not really debating like, no, man, it's needed for sports. I just leave it on anyway. Sometimes the comments. commentators do provide clarification on something. Yeah. And it's nice to see that.

Yeah. We got Bob back in South Texas. I was worried about him. Hi, Bob. Hi, Bob. Thank God. You're okay, Bob. Hey, bud.

Oh, thank you. But you're 100% right. You shouldn't have it on for me. It's distracting. You shouldn't have it on. I'm using it a while back when there were a lot of live, like, comedy things and stuff on TV. Where the background noise from where it was being filmed was distracting. He couldn't hear everything.

You know, I'll tell you where I wonder if it's needed. If you watch a stand-up comedy special, do you feel like you find yourself watching the close captioning? Anything you're watching the close captioning. Yeah, I think it's naturally distracting. It's naturally distracting. When you look at a language that you can understand, speak, you will look at words and your brain will just automatically take them in.

You can't look at words and not absorb them. How about porn? Are you using it close captioning? The plot lines aren't that thick, so there's something else to stick. Is it weird that I actually? Is it weird that I read the subtitles? Why are you over here, baby? We broke up six months ago.

Wow. All right, well, with that said, Mahomes, want to play some trivia? Let's do this. Your possible three Pete, Chief Pete, Super Bowl champion, Mahomes.

We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to it. We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts. We're starting a trend. But this one's extra special. So how 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, well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was, we had. 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.

Let's meet the contestants, 24-time winner, Rich Davis, right there. Yeah, buddy. 18-time champion, Dan Byer. Hello? Seven-time winner, Spotty Boy. Do I have to? And four-time champion, me. Let's go.

I got my mouth. Three in a row. By the way, if Patrick, if you win, Dan Byer, correct me if I'm wrong, that'll mean two times you have won in your red home jersey and two times in the road whites. Yes. You know what? I'm playing a game and even I don't care about that. Thanks. Appreciate that. Let's go to the studio lines looking to win a CNR, stainless steel swiggy.

John, you know, Covino, really quick. Covino, you met that guy. He's back in the blue kitchen right now. He always says worldwide famous Covino and Rich. Yeah, world famous. Check this out. John in Hamilton, New Zealand is our contestant. Worldwide. No. No. What up, John? Hey, John, thank you for listening all the way around the world. All right, here are the rules for Showtime of Holmes NFL trivia.

The first contestant with two correct answers is the champ. If there's a tie, we have a tiebreaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do have to wait until all three possible answers are read. If there's two wrong answers in a row, we move on to the next question. Are you ready? Yep. Let's get it on. All right, I'm here, Patrick Mahomes.

How many left-handed quarterbacks have won the Super Bowl? A-1, B-2, or C-4? John. John got in there first. Oh, so confident. You know what? I thought it was one, too. I was going to say Steve Young.

I can't think of another. Oh. Spot. Spot. Spot. Was it two an option? Yes. I'm taking two.

Yes. If you think it was only one, it's got to be two. Don't tell me. Hold on. Left-handed quarterback. Not firing left. Of course, there's a, uh, raiders. I mean, hurry up.

I got all day here. Kenny Stabler. Kenny Stabler. Steve Young and Ken's. stabler. There you go. Bam. Boom. On the board. All right. Round two, Spotty is on the board. Round two, Patrick for Holmes.

What was I once quoted saying about fear? A, I'm definitely not for any haunted houses. They're all scary to me. Okay. Okay. B, not much bothers me, but spiders have always had me

going the other direction. I think it's the legs. Interesting. Or C, there was a spider in our living room on a date. Thank God. referee Clay Martin was in there to step on it. What was I once saying about my fears? This is interesting. You know, Rich.

I'm going to go with B, the spiders. You don't like spiders. Oh, son of a. John. John for the steel. John for the steel. Dagnavitt. A is correct.

You don't like haunted houses? Really? I hate them. I'm scared of them. All right. So John and Spot both on the board. and we move on to round three. What are you against Stoughton House?

Round three. I'd rather not talk about it. Okay. I know this well because I'm four and O against him. What's the name of the Jacksonville Jaguar Stadium? A, Everbank, B, M&T Bank, or C, Everrise? Oh, Dan. John, John got in there trying for the win.

B? B, no. Oh, that's a. Everbank? Beyer for the steel. Yes. Ba'am. Boom.

So Spotty, John, Bayer, three-way ties as we go to round four. More like Neverbank, because they never beat us. Round four. Okay. Let's take it back

to my junior year of high school. Who won Pepsi rookie of the year for 2013 NFL season? 2030. 2013. Okay. I was in junior high.

Okay. DeAndre Hopkins. B. Lacey or C. Keenan Allen. Interesting. Random question. 2013 Pepsi. Yeah, rookie of the year. Spot.

Spot. Spotty for the win. I'm going to go with B. No. Okay. Rich. Done. Rich. D. Hop.

No, you both lose. Yes. All right. Still a three-way tie as we go to round. So who was it? Five. Keenan Allen. Sorry, Keenan.

He's the better, Alan. Okay. Round five. which is the only franchise to start the season 0 and 4 but still make the playoffs. A, the Chargers, B, the Ravens, or C, the Vikings. Rich. Rich. Chargers.

Yes. Boom. So, four-way tie, Spotty, John, Bayer, Rich. All right. So we're going to go to the tie break. By the way, it was the 92 Chargers. Yeah. They were in San Diego at the time.

All right. So no multiple choice. You're just going to buzz in with your name to. go first. Whoever comes closest, Patrick, take it away. All right. How many career passing TDs do I have so far my career? Regular season. How many career passing TDs do I have so far on my career? Give you guys a second few of math in your head. All right, John, you want to guess first? Yeah. Go for it. I'll go. Okay.

I will go, much like my favorite show as a kid, 227, 227. 2, 27. 2.7. 2.7. It's all right. Alf was not an option. Byer or spotty? I'll do 250. Byer 250, okay. I'll do, you know what? I'll do an even two.

200? The answer? Patrick, you know how many regular season TVs here. I got 245, baby. $2.45. Buyer guest 250. Hey, John, I love you, but 101. Give me a break.

Dan Byer, that is his 19th win. Congratulations. I mean, his guy never loses. I don't want to play Dan in Super Bowl. I want to play the Eagles. Hey, Patrick, just for the heck of it. Do you see what number I actually, before I wrote 2-27 playing off of that Super Show? I had 247.

I would have been within two. Oh, I could be a whole five for that. I thought Rich had at one with 227. And Dan with the five away. Hey, before I go, I just say free sweets for my family and for Taylor Swift. And let's go Chiefs. Let's go. Chiefs. Let's go.

I got to go. Thank you. Great. Later, guys. I'll see you. See you in New Orleans, Patrick. We'll see you there. All right, guys. Goodbye now. See you next week. You know, it's wild, Danny. We've been doing the show together on Fox Sports Radio for... And he was pumped. This will be our third Super Bowl's a show.

Kavino and I are first Super Bowl together. We've been going every year since 05, which was Jacksonville. Jacksonville, Florida, with Donovan McNabb and the Eagles against Brady and the Patriots. you know, we've never got to really interview many of the people from this Chiefs team because they're always in the game. You ever notice that? Like they've been so in the mix at the last, even,

we've had Kelsey on the show, though, Ed Kelsey. Get Ed and Donna. But we had a young Travis on our show back in the day. It's crazy because our three Super Bowls together, Chiefs. All of them. Since we've been doing the show together on Fox Sports Radio, it's been Chiefs every year.

And it could be the three-peed. Our first three years at Fox Sports Radio, full-time. Could be Chiefs Chiefs. But he was pumped. Mahomes was pumped. He was. And by the way, I'm going to use the Dan Byer rule, which we put in effect a couple weeks ago. Going to send John in New Zealand a swiggy because he's listening all the way there. That's awesome. There you go. That's going to cost you lots of postage.

As you say, John, my favorite New Zealander since the Bushwhackers. Yo! Hey! I mean, I like John, but I'm sticking with Luke and Butch. Yeah, Luke and Bush. Okay. Let's go to Dan Byer for an update. DB, what's going to win, man? I'm going to go Frank Nobalo.

Long time member of the PGA Tour. Now you can hear him on the CBS Golf Broadcast. Is Blueie's from Australia, not New Zealand, right? Who? Blueie? Yeah, yeah. Yes. Flight of the Concord's New Zealand.

That's true. It's business time. New Zealand. New Zealand. You have your business socks on, Sam? It's delicious beer. Delicious beer. All right.

Where do I want to start? Cliff Kingsbury, taking his name out of consideration for the Saints head coaching job. He will return to the commanders as their offensive coordinator next season. Saints did interview Kellyn Moore, the Eagles offensive coordinator for their head coaching vacancy. That taking place last night was that second interview. There's been some talk that the Browns could trade Miles Garrett this offseason. GM Andrew Barry says that is not happening, telling the team's beat riders that he wouldn't trade Garrett even if they got an offer for two first round picks. Garrett's contract expires at the end of the 2026 season.

Speaking of contracts, Deeran Fox's deal with the Kings goes through next year, but the Kings are open to trading Fox prior to next week's trade deadline. Fox is a, as I mentioned, a free agent after the 2026 season. He has one destination that he wants to go to. And Kingsbeak.com reports that's the San Antonio Spurs. So look out for that. Golden State Warriors will retire Andre Agadalas number nine when they face the Mavericks. Coming up on Sunday, February 23rd, Cavs forward, Dean Wade's going to

him is multiple weeks with the bone bruise in his knee. Phoenix Mercury are acquiring All-Star Forward Alyssa Thomas from the Connecticut Sun. And here's a baseball note, guys, in an effort to get more families to the ballpark, Major League Baseball released a statistic today that said 62.8% of their Monday through Friday games for the upcoming season will begin prior to 7 o'clock local time. Last season, 87.8% of weekday games ended before 10 o'clock local time. So trying to get families to the ballpark, maybe more conducive for their scheduling during the week.

They're having earlier start times. Wow. And the sped-up game allows if you start at 630, you can get out of there by 9-930 at the latest that time. I know going to City Field, you would always be like, do I want to try to catch that 930 or 1003 train home? Because, you know, some stadiums have public transportation. Sure.

No, that's actually pretty sweet. You see Cliff Kingsbury declined. the, you know, interview as a head coach. I thought the gap was tighter between some of these highest paid coordinators. I just looked it up. Some of the highest paid offensive and defensive coordinators in the NFL make about three to four million dollars a year. Some of the NFL head coaches, clearly the veterans can be know. 16, 18, 20 million for

Andy Reed, Sean Payton and Tomlin, 18 million, 16 million, Harbaugh, 16 million. So the gap is big. I thought it was like, I don't know why. In my mind, I was like, yeah, it's like three million versus what. 8 to 10 million? No, some of these coaches got good deals now. Yeah, but you name some legendary guys. Yeah, but then you go all the way down and, you know, some of the head coaches make under 10, so. Right.

There you go. But hey, some guys say, you know what? But still significant, yeah. No doubt. All right, hey, we got more Kavino and Rich as we prepare you. We got two weeks to prepare you for a Super Bowl Sunday. More next right here on Fox Sports Radio. From providing extra support during busy seasons to replacing vacant roles,

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. 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.

That's never going to get done, is it? It's a weird story, man. I think it really is a weird story. And before I ask you more about that, since you never take my word for it, if you talk about shrinking one more time now. Danny, can you tell him? I only take LeVar Burton's word.

Half of the shows that Rich recommends are amazing. This is the good half. See, he's a guy who cried show. It is true. If I watched every show he recommends, I wouldn't have time to do anything. Cried show. So I'm supposed to believe him this time.

I give you too great. He's on top of mountain screaming about every stupid show he watches to justify the time he wasted. So now I'm supposed to believe him. The shows that Rich watches, you could spend a hundred years watching shows. This guy, you know what? It's almost bad if he watches a show you like because it's going to be canceled. Every show he watches, stinks that I have and gets canceled.

You know how like your mom will say things about you? And you're like, Mom, I did that when I was a teenager. Oh, remember when Rich? He does this. I recommended some pretty bad shows in the 2000s, like network shows that came and went. Lately, I've been, like, battened 800. I gave you two shows.

One I just started watching Paradise on Hulu, which is awesome so far, and shrinking on Apple TV. I don't know if you need Danny or buddy Drew in Nashville who you respect, other people. Like, can you please tell him that shrinking is great? I've told you before, Covino. Shrinkin is worth your time.

Did you sob the way Rich says he sobbed? I did. No, I didn't cry. At the end of season two. Rich tells her, I've heard him tell like 10 different people. I was thobbing. Me and my wife were thobbing. I don't want to watch shows that make me sob, by the way.

Right? You too mad enough to cry? No. I mean, crying's fine. You cry at every show. There's a Harrison Ford speech in the finale of season two that if you don't get a, if you don't get a little like, oh, that was beautiful, then you're a piece of trash. Trash.

Your trash bag. Yeah. It's beautiful. Really, really good story and cast. The cast just. We couldn't wait for season two. It's one of the best casts on TV. You want to see a great cast.

Let me show you a picture of Cowboy Bob Orton here. Hold on. It's a great, 1988 joke. The jokes are flowing. What's the last time? What's the last time someone made that joke on Fox Sports? Never! Cowboy Bob Orton and his cast.

He wore a cast. It's a good one. It's a good one. That's the only way I remember the guy. What's next? The Bobby Heenan neck brace joke? It might. It might be if you stay around.

Let me ask you, we have two minutes. So, real quick. Pete Alonzo, if you had a best. right now, all your money in Vegas. Does it look like sort of a whip move if he ends up a met like he lost? Like it almost does there come a point where if Pete ends up a

Met, it looks like he was a whip. I think that's the best place for him. I think it'd be a shame if he wasn't on that team. What is he going to go? No. So to answer a question, they're not really the Mets without him. I think he is the Mets. So if he goes to the Angels to watch his career die, that's one thing. If he goes to

Toronto and becomes irrelevant in the American League behind the Yankees, the race, the Red Sox who are rebuilding. Like, what a terrible decision. The projays aren't scrubs, though. They made some moves. Yeah, but they're going to end up losing, you know. I agree. I wouldn't want to be playing out there.

Right. So my point is, if Pete, after all this, comes back and goes, okay, except that Mets offered, does he look like a chump? Like a chump? Like a chump? Like a chump. Like, the fact that he passed up one, like, 150 mil, a couple years ago, bet on himself and it didn't work out.

Now they're like, all right, three years, 70 mil. If he ends up saying, okay, I'll take it, I mean, it's still $70 million, but does he look like a chump? If they up it a little bit, it looks like. Yeah, because he left a lot of money on the table. He did. He should have took it when he had it. So it does, yeah, it makes him look bad.

So I'm saying if the Mets, if he went to the Mets and said, listen. I don't think it's a mistake for him to end up with the Mets. If he optically went to the Mets and say, listen, I'm leaning towards you guys. I'm a MET. I want to be a MET. Up the offer a little bit. We'll get this done. Sorry, Scott Boris was a pain in your ass, Steve Cohen.

But if I take the deal as is, it looks like I crawled back. I need to make it look like the Mets upped it a little bit. I think optically the Mets need to make it look like, all right, we gave him a little bit better offer. Then if Pete takes it, it looks like a win for everyone. Because as it right now, your Dodgers Danny. look out. As of right now, it looks like the Dodgers just going to win 120 games anyway, but you know what? I think the Dodgers should swoop in and offer four years 300 million. There you know. Imagine if Pete Alonzo is going to be our right hand better off the bench.

That's how good we are. I wouldn't be surprised. Now, thank you guys for hanging out with us. Remember to search Covino and Rich wherever you stream your podcast, follow rate and review.
