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.

I'm Timbo, and every episode, we're cutting through the noise, breaking down the biggest moments in sports and giving you the real story behind the headline.

I'm Michelle McPhee, and I've been unraveling the strangest criminal alliance I've ever reported on, a Mormon polygamist and an Armenian businessman.

if you want to chime in on social media, at Covino and Rich. C-O-V-I-N-O. The more we think about it here in the studio, a GM trying to figure out what to do with the quarterback position is very much like dating as a single guy in your...

your 30s or 40s. I'm being that serious. It really is. The analogies are so important. 20-something-year-old, oh, there's a lot of potential, but what a pain to the X. Enticing, but green and priorities are off. They're not really ready. Yeah, they look good. There's a lot of potential, but they're young, right? Then, if you're single and out there and about there, do you want a woman your age? She comes with a lot. She's in her own ways.

can't teach an old dog new tricks, right? She's only got a few good years left, like we said. Oh, look at you, Mr. Vane. I'm being real about this. Right? It's a good analogy for you. So you'd want someone there somewhere in the middle with experience, but not too old,

not going to be a pain in the ass, established somewhat already. You know, that middle ground person who just needs another shot might be the best angle and we've seen it work. Or has it just coincidentally happen a couple times? Meaning, is Baker Mayfield?

I think in the past we've been really quick to write off quarterbacks who've been in really crappy situations. But Baker, Sam Darnold, Gino Smith, is it just happen to be coincidence that they're all sort of working out with a new shot? I'm going to go back to the one that we're talking about a few minutes ago. If you're the 49ers and you have the lightest schedule on planet Earth for 2025, I said it before, the toughest team on their schedule is the Houston Texans.

Honestly, look up the Niners schedule. It is, Vegas will set it at 12 and a half, I bet, over under wins. If you don't want to pay, Brock Purdy, $50, $60 million. If you don't,

I feel like they will. I do, as a Niners fan, I feel like John Lynch and Shanahan are committed to Purdy. But if he didn't want to, you drafted a young quarterback and picked up Aaron Rogers on a one-year deal and put Aaron Rogers on his childhood favorite team, the 49ers. The team he thought he should have been on 20 years ago. If you put Aaron Rogers with Debo, Kittle, McCaffrey, Iuke, Eusecheck,

you know, Big Trent blocking on the left side, you don't think Aaron Rogers could have one last. shot at glory, a guy that we thought stunk the last few years for the Jets? Based on what we saw, I would say no to that. I just feel like he did lose a step. Maybe he played a little cautious because of the injury.

It was year one off a big injury? Year one off of an injury, but you don't get better as you get older like that, man, off an injury like that. I just, I wouldn't do it. But I understand what you're saying. You want to win now, so you might want to take that chance. I would take that chance with a cousin's a guy like that. So anyway,

your thoughts. So you think of Kirk Cousins, though, for the 49ers? Maybe. I'm saying the O'Ber Rogers, because to me, Rogers looked really done this year. Listen, you could say the same about cousins at times. I'm just saying, I'm not bringing up the Niners solely because they're my team. It just says very few teams that are in a position to win maybe next year that don't have a set quarterback right now. You'd say pretty set, but he's, you know, as Colin said, a couple days back,

is Purdy the type of guy you really think should get 50 to 60 million dollars? I remember Colin broke it down at the three groups. The guys that like, hey, you got to pay him. Then there's the guys where you're like, I'll take the phone call, we'll talk about it, probably. And then the guys, as he said, he hang up on.

As a Niners fan, I love Brock Purdy. I think he's a fun young guy. I love his story. I think he's a good dude, probably. You'll talk to him. But I don't think he should be getting 50 to 60 million. I said that Daniel Jones, Baker Mayfield, like 30, 40-something million is where he should be, but he's not going to take that by any means.

So with that said, if you've been Niners, do you say one year of maybe a Kirk Cousins or an Aaron Rogers and draft a quarterback to just throw into Shanahan system? You know, I'm going to go back to another Colin Cowherts saying, stars, stars attract other stars. They do. And there's a lot of star power on your fourth. 49ers and maybe that will attract an Aaron Rogers. So to wrap it up, to wrap it up, I would say it's all about that middle ground person in life and on the field. That's where I would put my money.

But again, it's an interesting conversation. What would you do? You make the calls they used to say. So if you're a GM, one of three paths, as you said, it's not easy to decide nowadays. Veteran revamp a guy who's had a couple years of struggle. or maybe draft a quarterback too early because it's just a need you have. These college quarterbacks would be the equivalent to some social media girl dancing around in her bikini. Is that the girl you want to invest in?

I know what you're saying. Unless it's like the elite one. Yeah, it's enticing. You know, it looks good in the moment. But is that really where you're putting your money if you're a GM? That's the equivalent. Yeah. So think about it.

Yeah, it looks good. But I don't know if that's the answer for your organ. Now, there's lots more to get to today. Showtime Mahomes trivia. Broke Mahomes is stopping by, giving away prizes. We got trivia. We're going to talk some Tom Brady. He's in the news.

We're going to talk about signs. You messed up. Signs that you're in the doghouse, all right? DeShone Watson's in the news. But there's a guy that I follow on social media, Rich. And his name is two-toned. The superstar. Two-toned the superstar.

To long name. Hit that guy to tell him to trim it down on. He's just a, you know, a social media fight fan. And I'm a fight fan. I'm a boxing UFC fan. And he's just one of those guys that goes on these crazy rants. He's like, oh, I'm feeling some musty energy. Oh!

And he'll say something like, Canelo's Duckin' Benevitas. And I say that, oh, respectfully. And he's just a loud-mouth kid. and I like him. I like his fight takes. And he went on this rant recently about how he got kicked out of Planet Fitness for wearing crocs. And I'm sure you didn't see it. So take a listen.

Planet Fitness? Y'all some BS, bro, told me that you cannot wear crocs. You can't wear crops on the gym floor in Planet Fitness. The same Planet Fitness that serves deletons. delicious hungry Howie's pizza after workouts. The same plan of fitness that doesn't allow you to slam weights. The same plan and fitness where all the equipment is low-key mid. Y'all got to get it together.

This is where y'all draw the line at. Y'all draw the line on crooks? My crocs was in sports mode. Wow. So he goes on and on and he talks about his bad experience, and they made him go home or change his shoes. It was not allowed on the floor. Now, why do we bring this up?

I thought I was cheap going a 24-out fitness. Planet Fitness is like a rung below that. That's like the speared airlines of... No one said this guy was slaying it on social media, right? A lot of these dudes aren't getting paid, but I'm sure he's doing all right. Is he flying frontier? But no, Soulplane.

But I think that it's worth bringing up because in the next few weeks, you're going to see a lot of people at the gym. you hadn't seen before. And I mentioned the broccoli heads, the apaca boys, and their official gym uniform of pajama pants. And there's always those checkered pajama pants. It could be their girlfriend's pants.

I don't know, my 15-year-old daughter wears the same ones, the same ones that the boys are wearing into the gym. So these flannel checkered pajama pants with the tank top. You know the real name. We can't say it. Formerly known his wife, Peter, until we realize that's not a great name for a shirt. I didn't even want to say it because it's politically incorrect. But they'd wear their tithe.

tank top and crocs on their feet. Now, the question is, do you find crocs to be okay at the gym? Can you wear crocs to the gym? I personally have a stance against them ever in life. I think they're the weakest looking shoe, but I lost this war because kids wear them all the time, right? But do you think they're okay to wear to the gym is the question as you see all these new people for the next few weeks at the gym?

I own a pair of crox. Sorry to hear that. They're good for gardening. You and your schoolboy son who picks his nose. You wear the same? Do you wear Velcro sneakers too, like a little schoolboy? No, but I don't... Listen, I'm not going to wear...

I'm not going to wear sneakers that light up. ...as your four-year-old son. Because he can't tie his shoes. He has an excuse. I mean, Crocs are great, you know, sitting back by the pool, gardening, running errands around the house. I get it. They're comfy.

I've tried a mom. I'm not going out for lunch. I'm not going to work. I'm not going out in crox. But I think they're okay at the gym. Okay. And I'll tell you why. I'll tell you why.

Because unless you're doing intense cardio or your cross-fit guy or you do an orange theory or something, unless you're doing intense workouts, if you're just the guy going to the gym and I'm going to do arms and bench press today, I think he can wear crocs. Who's kicking you out of a weak-ass gym for wearing crocs? Then maybe you're not working hard enough. He had them in sport mode. Yeah, sport mode. Get out.

You get the stupid. That would imply that you're wearing this stupid buckle on the back of your claw, right? Yeah, the strap. How lame is this? Sports mode. That means you're not really doing any cardio at all. That means you're not doing any legs at all. And I'm not saying I do.

I'm just saying what kind of workout are you really getting in your crocs? And, you know, aside from aesthetically being the weakest look ever, Crocs at the gym, okay or not? Let us know at 8774 the herd, because I'm here to tell you it's not. That's my stance. I think it's the weakest. It's not functional. It's not fashionable.

It's nothing. It's nothing positive here. Crocs at the gym. I think your take is whack. All right. But what do you care about someone wearing crocs? They're not wearing flip-flops. That's dangerous.

You can drop a weight on your foot or something. No, it is a liability. I would imagine that's why Planet Fitness told them that they can't. Because some dudes at the gym, he's wearing crocs like an idiot, and he slides out of sports mode because you're being held together by a little rubber band and he turns an ankle, rolls an ankle,

maybe he's on the treadmill or something, he's doing some cleans, he's doing a set of curls, he loses his balance, rolls an ankle, and now it's on the gym. Jim's never responsible for you? I don't know.

You think the gym's responsible for you if you get hurt at the gym? If you get injured, I don't know. I don't know what sort of... I know. How do you know that? When you sign your contract, when you sign your contract for the gym,

You think if you get hurt at the gym, the gym's responsible? Why would the gym not allow these shoes on their floor? Because they don't like how they look? I'm more offended by people that were like jeans at the gym. And I know that usually a guy that gets caught up at work and he's like, oh, man, I forgot my shorts. I'm allowed to say this because I'm half Mexican, right? But it's usually like a foreign guy. You're right about that.

Right? He's wearing slacks. He's wearing slacks on the treadmill. If you're on the peck deck, doing chest in pants because you forgot your gym should. I get it. I've done it. I've done it. We've all done it. Crocs at the gym. Not a great look, but I don't see how you could say it's unacceptable. You know, Danny G agrees with you. Music, how do you feel about it? I know you're a proud owner of Crocs. Absolutely no crox at the gym. But not at the gym. Not even up for discussion. I'm with Rich that, you know, crocs serve a lot of purposes. They're actually great for washing the car, you know.

He's a great example. Yeah, you know. But at the gym is at the gym is. Absolutely blasphemous. By the way, you know how many people washed their car in today's world? Like five. You need a hard day's work. I enjoy washing. I like washing the car.

You remember days of washing your car? They're few and far between. It's not as common as it used to be as my point. That just really doesn't happen as often as it used to. But I look at it this way too. Pun intended, I find it to be a slippery slope. Because you wear your crox to the gym. And then you're like, yeah, but I only wear them to the gym.

then you're wearing them to CVS, then you're wearing them to the supermarket, then you're wearing them out and you look like a clown and I don't want to hang with you. That's really it. And then you have to ask yourself, are you wearing the uniform of a high school boy?

That's their uniform. Think about it. Crox at the gym. I know our buddy's spot has a particular stance on it too. But he's sleeping this morning. Oh, okay. But he's, yeah, he's sleeping.

I mean, we did start earlier than usual in his defense. Or I'm doing my job. but yes. You're the guy with the hottest take on this, and you're sitting there scratching your butt.

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 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. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was... This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast,

where people could call in and say, hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. Another podcast from some SNL late-night comedy guy, not quite. Unhumor me with Robert Smigel 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.

Last night, a blown call changed a game. This morning, the internet lost its mind. Highlights are trending. Opinions are flying. And nobody's telling you exactly what happened. That's where Sports Slice comes in. I'm Timbo. Every episode, we're cutting through the noise.

breaking down the plays, the controversies, and the stories behind the headlines. We go straight to the source, the athlete themselves, their locker room stories, their reactions, the stuff nobody gets to hear. The laughs, the drama, the triumphs, the moments that never make the highlight real. From viral moments to historic games, from buzzer beaters to controversial calls, we break it down, give you context, and ask the questions everybody wants answered. Sports Slice brings you closer to the action with stories told by the people who live them. Listen to Sports Slice on the Iheart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast.

And for more, follow Timbo Sliced Life 12 and the TikTok podcast network on TikTok. Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast's superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I'd put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth.

Listen to Superhuman on the 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 Levant, 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. my life. Listen to Kingdom of Fraud on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. We also talked about all the incentives in the NFL week 18, which brings up another conversation we're going to have today about if life was incentive based. Because I think Gino Smith and Mike Evans, among other players, have a hell of a lot to

play for Sunday. And something else we did on overpromised, we tried to. Kelsey Mix cereal. And we were talking to Danny G and music about this before the show. I wanted to hate it because I'm like, oh, the Kelsey's. They're everywhere. His wife's now got the number one podcast.

You know, Jason's. The Kelsey's are in your face more than ever. So you sort of wanted to hate the cereal. What do you think? What do you think we liked it? Of course we did. I want to hate it, but I congratulate it. Cinnamon toast crunch, Lucky Charms,

and Reese's puffs together. Yeah. There was sugar involved. How is Rich not going to like that? Yeah, but Danny, I thought there was no way the cinnamon toasty goodness would vibe with the peanut buttery reases mixed with the marshmallowy greatness of Lucky Charms. I'm like, that's just too much going on. And at first, it hits you and you taste the peanut butter. And then the cinnamon kicks in, you're like, oh, all right, this kind of all complements itself.

And you're like, dang it. They did it. I can't believe it. I hate how good it was. Yeah, it was good. I'm just surprised you guys thought that they like grabbed a box of grape nuts, put the Kelsey's on it, and you're like, oh, this is going to be terrible. It's all the best cereals. Why wouldn't it work? Yeah, honestly, and you don't even need to be drunk or high to appreciate it.

It was, I had it yesterday morning and like, you have to be drunk or high to come up with the idea. And that's what makes you want to vomit because you got these two goons who were probably high or one of their goofy college friends probably did this because they were running out of other cereal and other options. and then they pitched it to General Mills and General Mills said, great idea! This is something your dumb college friend would do. Combine three random cereals. It's like the invention of the Everything Bagel.

If people don't know that, on Long Island, back of the day, a drunk bagel shop owner, went with his buddies to the shop after hours, probably out of their mind drunk or high or something, started dipping the bagels at all the remnants that had been used throughout the day, the Everything Bagel.

That's how the fat Daryl and all those fat sandwiches were in. invented. Yeah, I'll have a chicken parm and yeah, throw some cheese sticks on it. Yeah. Throw some bacon on there. You know how trail mix was invented, right? Yeah. Dad just shook out the car seat in the back of the minivan. True story.

Oh, there's a peanut? No, there's an M&M. A raisin? True story. All right. So somehow it worked. And if you want to, again, be part of that again, overpromised on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page, enjoy your Kelsey mix this weekend when you're watching cartoons. You know what? Let's say what's up to Joe who's calling from PA, Kavino and Rich in for the herd. What's up, Joe?

Joe. Ah, all right, well, we're still trying to figure out these phones. Yeah, we're working out the cowherd phones here. It's all good. 8777. It's 2025. For the herd. Who calls anyway.

Text me. Yeah. 877-484-3437 are easier. Hit us up at Covino Enrich. The most inclusive, most interactive show on radio, according to us. What's the chance you pick up your phone to an unknown number? no chance. No?

I don't pick up FaceTimes ever. I'm allergic to face times. If someone FaceTime you alone,

there's a lot of things today that could be handled on text and you're the biggest culprit of bothering me. Like when you could easily set a text

you're calling me all the time. You know how many times I put down the phone and my girlfriend would say, who was that? And I was rich

and she's like, he couldn't have texted you that? And I'm like, yep, he could have, but he decided to call.

What you're doing is outdated in my opinion. Tell them mind their own business. No, but it's true. I feel the same way.

I'm like, he could have texted that. Well, I think if someone facetimes you, though, you have to pick up because it's one of two things.

It's someone that really just wants to see you and what are you, would you don't look good enough to pick up face time? Absolutely. A lot of times, if it's a random person,

it's usually, they bumped into someone else you know. Right? And it's like, oh my God, you know Kavino, so do I. Yo, let's FaceTime him.

And you missed out on a fun opportunity. And I'm happy about it. You think when I'm lamping there in my natural habitat on the couch looking lazy, you think with my bedhead, you think I want to see somebody? You're out of your mind. No thanks. I'll be okay missing that FaceTime. So the phone number, again, if you want to call an interact, 877-484-3437.

Now it's time. We do this every Friday for Rich's Big TV game of the week. You should see my fed up. extra TV? The game that I will have Rich's Big TV game of the week. It's Rich's Big TV game of the week. Hey Rich, you want to explain?

Well, I mean, because TVs are so damn cheap. And I say that respectfully. To be honest, truth is you go to Walmart, Target, Best Buy Anywhere. I saw like a 60-inch TV for under 300 bucks, and I said, you know what? Let me get a couple TVs. Can I explain why, though? living room on, I wheeled them in and out

on Sundays. It's not that everything else got more expensive and TVs got cheaper. You're just buying a screen. You're buying a monitor. There's no tuner in the things that you're buying. It's not necessarily a TV. It's just a screen. Who needs a tuner? We're talking about not answering phone calls and texting, but I'm saying that's why they're so cheap. Because they're just a

monitor at this point. That's really it. That's all you need, right? Pretty much. Smart TV? You got everything you need. So, point is, I wheel in the big TV, so they have multiple TVs going on Sunday. What gets the big screen? Because the other TV has the four boxes for Sunday ticket. My TV has the Octobox.

I can't watch Red Zone. My ADD is blazing too much. I would be pacing like a maniac. So this week is a rare week. I'm not saying I'm killing our segment. There's nothing worthy of the big TV except for Sunday night. Vikings Lions is worthy of a conversation. conversation in itself. But every other game, I think, I know you want to watch Gino Smith

simply based on the incentives he's playing for. Yeah, you're going to see some of these players bawling because of their incentives. Gino Smith is playing for $6 million in incentive bonuses. So, you know, that's, that's major money. You're going to see some big numbers being put up. But every, every game of interest to me, there's a rub, Kavino. Like, oh, man, I want to watch Steelers, Bengals. But it's on Saturday. So, you're going to see. So, you're You don't need to be worried about other games. And the Bengals win and you'll be all excited. Like, oh, Joe Burroughs got a chance.

And then Kansas City sits the whole team and Denver will win and be in. And I think the sentiment is that we should all root for Carson Wentz. I'm sorry, Denver. I don't want to hurt your feelings. But if we root for the Chiefs to win, who do you rather see? And, God, I don't want my friends and family in Colorado to hate on me. Sorry, Bo Nix. Sorry, Sean Payton.

Who do you rather see? in round one. Joe Burrow, I know the defense of Cincinnati's not great, but don't you want to see Joe Burrow sneak into the playoffs? Yes. Yeah. And he's earned it. So maybe one of those games he's thrown on the big TV on Sunday is Denver and Kansas City.

And for some reason, you hope that Carson Wentz shows that, he's got the, he's got the juice. So actually, this is your segment, Rich, right? Because you're the one with two TVs that you brag about all the time. I never brag. Rich, you're the guy that brings it up. He wheels his TV in, like he's the AV guy. in your junior high class.

He's so proud of it. And I want to say you use the entire day just to take down your Christmas decorations. Yeah. This is the Sunday you casually watch and you take down the lights. Or you tell your wife or girlfriend that you choose them over football this week.

Because starting next week, when wild card weekend kicks in. Right. It's going to be wild, bro. No, seriously. So my advice is you don't even need to wheel out your second TV. You take down your decorations, right?

You put the tree away, all that stuff. And then you use your one TV for the Vikings, lions later on that night. In my opinion, you don't even need the second TV this week. So, segment dead. No, but I think you go, you know, Bengals, Steelers, you know,

you could argue Steelers aren't going to necessarily play everyone, but I think it's fun to see what the Bengals could do. And again, any given Sunday, it's not like it's not like Denver's a shoe in, but they are favored by double digits because Andy Reid, they are just resting. But hey, you never know, right?

So the game's in Denver, which is another advantage, Broncos. Keep an eye on that one because it's the only game that would make any playoff scenario fun. And in the NFC South, Falcons and the Bucks should both win easily, but the tiebreakers, you know,

the Bucks, you know, are in if they win. So no real fun. Week 18, but Sunday night, I want to go around the room. I don't want your prediction. I want who you want to win. Oh, wow. Because the Lions and Dan Campbell, that was like the feel-good story of football. In my opinion, last year.

We got caught up. You know, the Niners shouldn't have won that game. NFC championship. Detroit let that slip away. Some decisions in the second half. I don't think the Lions have that likability factor this year. I want to see the Minnesota Vikings win. Vikings at Detroit,

potential coaches of the year going head to head. I want to see the NFC, five seed. Dude. There's so many ramifications here. So many great reasons to watch.

I don't know. You know, I really do love, you know what? My dad has ingrained in me to never kiss ass. Oh, you think I'm kissing ass as a boss of a Vikings fan?

But I was just going to say, maybe it's in our best interest to kiss some ass and say, hey, isn't our boss a Vikings fan? I don't care about that. Oh, we predicted Sam Darnold and the Vikings on our Covino and Rich Afternoon show prior to the season starting. Listen, I think you could say, I think you could say I want the Vikings to win, and I love the fact that our boss is a fan, and I love the Sam Donald's story without hating on the Lions. You know what I mean?

Yeah. They're a great story. I like Dan Campbell. I like Gop. I like that team. I like their fight. But there's something, there's a soft spot, Rich, that I have, honestly, for the, for the Vikings. story at Detroit, it would be cool to see them win.

I want the NFC to go through Minnesota as a Niners fan when they mocked Fred Warner last week. I was like, I'm on Ross St. Brown. I loved you on receiver. I loved watching you on Netflix. The fact that they mocked my dude, Fred Warner a little bit, doing the whole limping thing, I'm like, uh, you know, let's go Minnesota. Let's go Vikings.

You could say that Detroit's do. Minnesota, that organization has had some rough. breaks in our lifetime. They're both do. And that's no hate on Detroit. I actually agree with Rich and when we agree is fact. So how about you, music? Yeah, what are you Paul for? Well, while you guys are sucking up to Colin and his

Sam Darnel fandom and our boss Scott, who's the Vikings fan, I'm going to stick with the team that everyone's always been on board with. And it's the biting kneecaps, Detroit Lions, who have had to fight through the most injuries in the NFL.

This is why you don't get pay That's right. That's the only reason. Yeah, so I'm pulling for the Lions. I love the fact that this team got completely resurrected over the past two seasons and they're still overcoming all of these injuries and yeah, count me in on Detroit. Now, there is definitely something to be said about how Vegas doesn't even have a feel for this game because it's Lions minus three, two and a half in some places, which means it's just your home field field goal advantage. I think this couldn't have lined up better.

Now, again, the NFL would have definitely wanted every game to have some type of implication, week 18. It's still first time in recent history that I remember nothing really up for grips. Again, except for this game. Because this game determines the one seed going through Minnesota or Detroit, or you're a wild card. That has to go on the road next week. Yeah, your fifth. Now, is it week 18 or week 18?

It depends. incentives. We talked about it on our bonus podcast over promise, but without a doubt the big TV game of the week is Minnesota at Detroit. Who are you pulling for? And by the way, Danny G, we got the phones going? Yeah, so figured out the cowherd phones. It was in star mode. Starr!

For some reason, that didn't work. It didn't work for you guys for some reason. Joe in Pennsylvania. You're on the air. Hey, Joe. Hey, so three things, I'll keep them moving. One, Crocs at the gym, totally fine. Two, you guys can talk about the Vikings. It's a great story, but Lamar's getting his ring this year.

And three, I heard your voices, and I couldn't believe it. I used to listen to you guys all the time on Maxim Radio. You still have, there's still segments that I've referenced to this day. I can't talk about him on this radio. Probably not. But I'm glad to hear that you guys are still together doing your thing, and I'm just going to hang up and listen. Hey, man, I appreciate you, Joe. Yeah, we started on Maxim Radio.

entertainment, relationships, sports, maximum lifestyle. Remember magazines, everybody? Exactly, exactly. And that was over 20 years ago. Rich and I have celebrated 20 years of working together just this past month. So he's my longest relationship. We realize that we've taken our show together from our 20s to our 40s. LeBron James has sort of covered the extent of our show.

Pretty much. Tom Brady. There are athletes that as we watch them, tire? I'm like, I hope that's what to mean we're coming to do it. No, no. We're just getting started. But hey, let me tell you, it's good to hear from you, Joe. And I think this Sunday, this is

huge, because the loser of Vikings Lions, no shame and, you know, the losers is what, 14 and 3? I mean, how do you get back? If you're 14 and three, you don't think you're going to be a wild card. And that that team will have to travel to...

Well, that's the other crazy part of this game. I think it's the most victories ever of all time heading into week 18 are both 14 and 2 teams. That sucks. It really does suck. It does suck that a 14 and 3 team

will be in the wild card. Going to the Rams? One of those teams is going to have to go play on the road next week and the other one gets to sit back and chill. So lots at stake Sunday night. And we got a lot still to get to here on the show Kavino and Rich. We're going to do

Showtime Mahomes trivia, give away some prizes. Deshawn Watson God, what a bust that guy is, huh? What a, yeah, when you talk about bad decisions, even Cleveland looks at Baker Mayfield and says, you know, that's the girl that got away. Without a doubt. Baker Mayfield took that team to the playoffs.

Without a doubt. He got them like, if I remember correct, like a game away from the AFC championship, Baker was on the track. And they saw this shiny new toy. And they thought Deshawn Watson was the answer. No, it was a typical example of the grass was greener, and they made a bad decision. And now look at Baker.

Well, we didn't invent it. We just can't. 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. Oh, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down?

Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast. 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.

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 Levant, 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.

We got a whole new shipment of Swiggies, a stainless steel water bottle. And it's just NFL trivia hosted by Showtime, broke Showtime Mahomes. The number again. 877 for the herd.

Yeah, multiple choice. Don't be scurred. Yeah, yeah. Get involved. Get involved. Most interactive show on Fox Sports Radio. Now, before we play Showtime Mahomes Trivia, before we get to weekend hobnobbing,

which is what to watch, besides football, besides some NBA. There's a new dating show I want to talk about later. During weekend hobnobbing. They've scraped the bottom of the barrel for this. There's a show where you have to be like stuck with your in-law.

on an island. Have you seen this? They've come up with every idea. So we'll get to all the dumb stuff you can watch this weekend. But I wanted to put a little bow on the conversation about the Yankees being a little, maybe not a little, a lot outdated. Free agency, there's still players out there in the mix. Polar Bear Pete Alonzo is one of them. The market dictates what you're worth. I think he thought he was going to get a lot more. Mets, Angels, Yankees. There's a few teams, but they don't want to give polar bear Pete any more than three or four years.

Looks like he's running out of options too. Right. And when you look at some of the free agents that were signed, the Yankees, you know, you could argue that they lost Juan Soto, but they certainly, I think, have a lot of great low-risk, high-reward players. Yeah, it forced them to make better moves. Bellinger.

Strategy, yeah. Goldschmidt. They got Williams and the Bullsman. bullpen now. And it got me thinking because these poor guys now have to shave. And I know you might say, they're making tens of millions of dollars. Who cares? But I looked around the room. Let's say, one, two, three, four, five. There's seven men working here now. In the hallway, I saw Jay Stu from the Gottlieb show. I saw Big Mike. I saw Perfet. There's roughly 10 people I saw in the last five minutes, all grown men, all with facial hair that would all have to

change their look if they played for the Yankees. ask you, is it the lamest rule in all of sports in 2025? When you see a guy like Paul Gullschmidt, do you think this dude wants to shave every day? You're in a slump, you're on the road, 162 games every morning, waking up and shaving the stumbling. You make sacrifices for things that you care about. And that could be your job. That could be your relationship. If your girlfriend says, you know, I really love you clean shaving, guess what?

You're probably shaving your beard. There's a reason I stopped wearing earrings. My girlfriend was like... Is Paul Goldsched's sleeping with Brian Cashman? Yeah, but again, you make those sacrifices for your job or things you care about. It's your priority, right? Like when we worked on ESPN on TV, they didn't say I had to, but they recommended that I take my earrings off. And you know what, quite frankly, maybe I should have anyway.

But because I was like, well, you know, I care about my job and I want to present the way, the best way they want me to, I'll take them all. I think you should have took out the diamond stud you wear and put in a hanging Barry Bons earring from the 90s. That would have been the look. I should have wore a Lawrence Taylor one. Yeah, I had one on standby. But my point is there's some compromise that maybe you have to make when you're making a ton of money and you're wearing the pinstripes.

I know you put no value in that, neither did Juan Soto, but those are the rules and it's not that big of a deal. Maybe that's part of the price you pay to play for the Yanks. But as a young generation's fan, Please let me say this. I do for the first time agree. Maybe it's the feel of these younger players and times are changing more than ever. Or maybe it's becoming such an international game that, you know, that's a big ask to tell some young Dominican kid who has a sweet shape up.

And, you know, he's sort of known for having this look. And he has this precision beard that he takes a lot of pride in to all of a sudden shave that and not feel 100% stepping into the batters box. To me, as a fan now, I'm like, let this young dude feel his best. I want him to feel as confident as ever. And that whole Devin Williams side of it made me think that there has to be a compromise there. I don't think that the Yankees should completely change their rules because then you look like the 2004 Red Sox like a bunch of hobos, right? Who looked like a bunch of old homeless cowboys. I think that there's a compromise where you don't look like a caveman.

you could still rock facial hair, but it has to be groomed. You know what I mean? I think that's a fair adjustment. I think there's a compromise. You could say clean shaving is out. You could say dumb observation, but hey, it is that week, you know. I think it's time. It's the week where everyone's just sort of chilling, doing nothing anyway.

Probably a lot of people sitting on their butt, not back to work yet, scratching their stubble as we speak, thinking, yeah, you know what? If I had a shave every single day, that would be. be sort of a pain in the butt. That would be a pain in the ass. And I think we're looking at a time now where these young players, they don't value the pinstripes, like maybe previous generations.

And on top of that, now you tell them some young kid, every single day. Right. You have to shave? I asked everyone, that's your music. What was the last time you actually shaved? You're rocking like a thin beard. What was the last time you shaved your face? Shaved my face down to the skin would be going on

probably about 11 years ago now. Yeah. Yeah. Good luck playing for the Yankees. Yeah, that's right. Shave tomorrow. I'm almost like music. I'd say maybe... They've never seen my slider, by the way.

Maybe five years ago, for the hell of it one day. I was like, yeah, let me, let me clean slate shave. Danny J., what was the last time? I've never seen you with a shave face. My family hasn't either. I've had a five o'clock shadow since I was 15. Man, 20 years. See?

Yeah, it's a bigger ask than ever. Especially in the times that we're living in, too, because it's hard to get young people just to show up at work. The lack and level of respect people have for their workplace is so different now. There's a lot of companies telling people they need to return to the office and they're like,

yeah, I don't want to. So imagine telling that type of young person that you have to shave. They're like, I don't even want to put on pants. Let around shave. I mean, most guys have a razor. They just don't shave their face. Exactly. So I do think we've gotten to the point, Rich, where compromise is the key here. No doubt.

All right, let's do this. Showtime, Mahomes. Trivia. The mostly lovable, Patrick Mahomes. Truth is, I want everybody to love me, not just the reps. It's time for some NFL trivia. I'm here. I'm here. Yes, we know you're here.

24-time winner, Rich Davis right over there. Seven-time champion, Spotty boy. Is this guy sleeping or what? Hey, Spotty. You sleep in stuff? Oh, hey. Hey, man, if that's the case, I would have stayed home. Newcomer Ryan Music

Locust Grove Yeah Say what's up to Ray in Georgia Ray What's up Ray? Hey what's up Ray Hey what's going on And by the way, Ray, seriously.

Like, you think Lamar, Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, you think they're better than me? Like, I'm not in the Pro Bowl. What? Yeah, I do, because I'm a Raiders fan. I do think they're better. Let's go. Hang up on this guy. I don't like this guy.

Oh, man. You picked the right line here, music. 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?

Let's go. Let's get it on. All right. Round one, Patrick Mahomes. I'm here. And I'm coming for this record. Which NFL QB holds the record for most passing yards in a single game? Is it A, Joe Burrow, B, Dan Fouts, or C, Norm Van Brocklin?

Rich. Rich. Big Dan Feltz. No, you'd be wrong. Yeah, you're thinking wrong. Ray. Ray for the steel. Van Brack

Yes Oh nice Most passing yards single game 554 yards Damn Waller back in the day Like that I think Burrow was pretty close this year

In one of those games I gotta look that up It was five something And cousins too now Ray is halfway to a CNR Swiggy All right We move on to round two Round two

Patrick Mahomes here Pro Bowler Should be Hi Patrick What was I once quoted saying about my wheels. Your wheels? My wheels. Throughout my whole football career, I've always

known I wasn't the fastest guy. B, luckily for me, in-game speed is different than being timed in the 40. Or, C, it doesn't matter if I'm trying to run on a broken ankle, the rest will make sure I limp to a first down.

Oh, whoa. Oh, this is a hard one. What was I quoted saying about my wheels? Rich, C. Sorry. Stop. No? No. No. Ray. Okay. Ray. Let's go with B.

No. Yeah, you'd be wrong, Ray. Spot. I'm going to take a. Yeah, we're throwing that question out. We're throwing it out now. All right. We move on to round three.

Round three. Patrick Rahms here. By the way, Kavino and Rich slaying it. And for Colin on the herd, just want to say that. You guys, honestly, I think you guys are, like, the best in the game. What an endorsement. I just want to say that. I just want to say that.

I think all the affiliates should probably add your show because you get the big guess. Patrick Baham's here. Can we make it to the radio Pro Bowl? This guy once told me that he wished he had me as a QB during his career. Bill Parcell's Tuna was the head coach for how many

NFL teams? A, 3, B, 4, or C5? Ray. Ray for the win. It's A. No. So confident. Rich. Rich for the steel.

Four teams. right? So yes. Can you name them? Jets? Giants. Patriots. And LaV on now. Cowboys. Yeah. There he is. Extra credit. All right. So Ray and Rich both on the board as we move to the next round here. All right. Round four. Which franchise infamously ran out of time during the 2007 draft at pick number seven. Be the Vikings. Be the Titans or C. The Bears. Ryan. Ryan got in there first. Vikings, A. Yes.

Got it. Where we at, Danny G? So Ray, Rich Ryan on the board as we moved to round five. Wow, it's getting heated. Yeah, three-way tie. Almost as heated as me when I found out I didn't make the Pro Bowl. Sorry, Dr. Honestly, right?

Maybe next year. Aggravating. Maybe next year. All right, who's the third leading rusher in the NFL behind Seekwon and Derek Henry? A, Josh Jacobs, B. John Robinson, or C. Caron Williams? Great. Ray for the win. Hey, Josh Jacobs.

No. Oh, man, I want you to win, bro. He's so confident. I know. Ryan. Ryan for the win. See, Kyron Williams. Yeah.

That music takes his first title. Get this man of Swiggy. All right. Well, we thank you for listening to the herd there in Georgia. He doesn't care, I guess. Maybe he cares about this because I'm working on my own pitch, guys. What do you think? You know, I'm being into catch up, right?

I'm thinking about making my own cereal. mix. Oh, like the Kelsey mix? Yeah. I'm thinking about combining Count Chocula with Frankenberry and Booberry Mahomes Monster Mix. What do you guys think? I love it. I love it. I'm in. Come on. What do you guys think? Come on

guys. That's a good one. Got my own Pro Bowl going on. And by the guys. And congrats on your upcoming baby. All right, guys. Thank you. Hey, hey, I'm out. Later guys. You're brother. Coveino and Rich. You guys rule. Later, guys. Thank you. Broke Patrick Mahomes. I love when he comes into the studio.

Later. Look at that. You know what? Totally. He was firing up to that. I take, Kavino. Music, I totally forgot that year when the Vikings missed their pick. Oh, yeah.

What a blonde. Danny G. Is that one of those things that goes under the radar is like, what a, for sure. What a bonnet movie. Well, you know what it is, really? The draft has developed into such an event in the past like five to ten years that that falls just outside of that window where it wasn't such a monument. mental television event

where if that happened now, it would be a story for until the next football season, until training camp. You know what you made me think of music? Again, Ryan Music here, at Music Reports on social media. You made me think of the COVID year

when he did it from his basement. Remember that? With the wood panels and his weak-ass desk, probably there in his socks doing the draft. Remember that how weak that was? Didn't Bill Belichick sit at a table with his dog? That's right. I mentioned it earlier.

Oddly, remember I said, Cliff Kingsbury, we saw the sweetest house ever. And again, as we dive into 2025, it's such a weird time stamp to me to think that all that was five years ago. You're like, what? And you talk about the draft? Yeah.

Two things come to mind. Number one, if you watch that Great 30 for 30 from Elway to Marino. Back then, we're talking early 80s. A lot of us were alive in the early 80s. That was such a different draft world.

The guys are sitting with like beige, you know, landlines, like just in a conference room like, hey, I think our pick is in. The draft that went from simply a functional, hey, it's a draft college of the NFL to a spectacle. Fans, viewing, parties, everything. I remember. So the great writer, Peter King, who's now retired from being a full-time columnist. But he tells a story, I don't remember the year, but he tells a story about when he was, I think it was a, a sense. He's a Nattie-based writer, and he met with the GM of the Bengals at the time. And the guy goes, I'll tell you who our picks are.

And he's like, really? He goes, well, yeah, you're going to print it in the paper. We'll already have the picks in before tomorrow's morning paper comes out. So that's how much media has changed is the GM of an NFL team gave him the list of who they were going to pick. And he printed it in the paper because they knew it wasn't going to come out until the next day. Wow. And to think that, like, it's like a family affair now. people gather around.

You know, the guys have the hat ready to put on. They, you know, they're all their friends and family. And there's always a story where some guy's girlfriend jumps on them too quick and the mom pushes her away. It's become such a big deal. Millions of spectators just crowd the streets of whatever city this is happening. And now rotating the cities. And Rich, this is some cool trivia.

You said it's not talked about enough. Who was the next team on the board after the Vikings missed their 15 minute deadline there? That's a good question. It was the Jags and they rushed in to grab what quarterback? Mark Brunel? Nope. What year is it again? 2007.

Oh, yeah. So Blake Bortles? Nope. Think of a famous limp in college being helped by some teammates. Who would they pick? Byron Leftwich. Oh, man. I suck.

You know, I want music. You should do this. You should roll it this from now on. You should tell people because who's going to tell you you wrong? You should say that you're the creator of the do-do-do-do-do-do-do. The draft sound? You compose the draft sounds and you own it. Wow.

Who's going to tell you wrong? That's right. No, it's going to correct. Didn't John Tesh do it? See? Maybe he did. I don't know. I don't know. All right. Well, hey, we got more Kavino and Rich. I know we want to talk about some of these incentives to be watching out for on Sunday.

Because like we said before, we love the NFL. But truth be told, Vikings, Lions. all eyes on, maybe the biggest regular season game in the last 25 years of the NFL. There's so much at stake. 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.
