Gio asks why the NFLPA Man of the Year award is no longer named for Whizzer White but rather Alan Page.
C-Lo has yet one more Chris Russo mispronunciation. We heard Evan and Morash arguing about shortstops in the ‘90’s which ended up on Instagram and Manny Ramirez commented on it. The Knicks are handing out friendship bracelets for some reason.
It all started because people were talking about potential trades for Stroud by teams that need a QB. This led to Jets talk.

This hour, we dive into the coaching chaos—from the insider war between Schefter and Rapoport to Gio’s theory on why Mike McCarthy’s physical fitness affects his public image. Plus, we explore a wild "EMF" conspiracy theory regarding 49ers injuries, Jerry Jones’ desperate quest to catch Robert Kraft’s ring count, and a nostalgic look back at the glory days of MTV and The Real World. We wrap it all up with AI-generated pharma songs and Gio’s adamant refusal to act as an "organizer of men" for the station's Islanders outing.
John Harbaugh is officially the NFL’s most coveted free agent, and his strategic silence has the league on high alert. With Harbaugh delaying interviews until next week, speculation is swirling that he’s waiting for a "Black Monday" from playoff contenders like the Bills or Eagles. However, Boomer is doubling down on a "match made in heaven" with the Giants—a sentiment backed by Dianna Russini. CLo's here with Jim Harbaugh’s glowing tribute to his brother’s legacy and wrap up the hour with a look at the groundbreaking new series Heated Rivalry.
In this hour, we peel back the curtain on why fans have soured on Mike McCarthy, with Gio arguing that it's his "twice-burned" reputation combined with a subconscious bias toward more physically fit coaches like John Harbaugh. A caller suggests NFL "interview quotas" for larger coaches to get a shot. C-Lo drops in with more on the Harbaugh brothers and the insider feud between Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport over the Ravens' locker room. Plus, we break down the trade sending Trae Young to the Wizards, preview the Fiesta Bowl between Ole Miss and Miami, and wrap things up with a nostalgic trip through MTV's history as they shutter their music video channels for good.
We dive into the chaos at the office (sinkholes included), Boomer’s new Oura Ring and a song about prescription side-effects. We revisit an infamous NFL firing and Joe Judge’s odd comment about Ole Miss & living next to Aaron Hernandez. Plus, we explore the wild "EMF" injury theory in San Francisco and the latest on the Giants' pursuit of John Harbaugh—including whether a certain Polymarket personality is actually an AI.
The Giants coaching search is heating up as Antonio Pierce arrives for a two-day interview, while the guys wonder who John Harbaugh would tap for his "dream team" staff. Between updates on the disgusting state of city subways and Boomer putting Gio to sleep with Rangers talk, we dive into Jerry Jones’ obsessive quest to catch Robert Kraft’s ring count and Mike Tomlin’s heartfelt tribute to his former rival. We wrap with the "Moment of the Day" on the hockey drama Heated Rivalry and Gio’s adamant refusal to organize the WFAN Islanders box: "I am not an organizer of men."
Jerry Jones is on a quest to surpass Robert Kraft for the most Super Bowl rings, but he’s got a long way to go to bridge the gap. We also look at Mike Tomlin’s tribute to his career-long rival, John Harbaugh, and revisit the "Moment of the Day" featuring a deep dive into the hockey drama Heated Rivalry.
Antonio Pierce is set to interview with the Giants tonight and tomorrow. We talked about John Harbaugh and the Giants and wondered who his coordinators would be.
C-Lo brings the updates, but first, the guys take a trip down memory lane to Al Davis’ infamous "overhead projector" presser—one of the most bizarre firings in NFL history. Then, things get even weirder as we react to Joe Judge’s claim that the current chaos at Ole Miss is actually "more hectic" than the time he lived next door to Aaron Hernandez. We also dive into the wild conspiracy theory gaining steam in San Francisco: could an electromagnetic field from a nearby substation be the hidden reason for the 49ers' decade-long injury curse?
Gio discovers that Boomer is wearing an Oura Ring. Plus, a listener used A.I. to do a song about side effects for prescription drugs.
CLo's back with a little more Harbaugh-on-Harbaugh action. Adam Schefter's not buying Ian Rappaport's report about whether Harbaugh fell out with Ravens players. Plus, we go around the local NBA from last night, and wonder if Ole Miss & Miami have any buzz.
Mike McCarthy might have the wins, but he can’t seem to win over the fans. Gio argues that McCarthy’s reputation is suffering from a "twice-burned" narrative following his exits from Green Bay and Dallas. Gio also suggests that fans are subconsciously—or even overtly—judging McCarthy’s coaching ability based on his physical fitness.
C-Lo is in for Jerry and starts with Jim Harbaugh talking about how great of a coach his brother John is. Dianna Russini said the Giants really love Harbaugh and he really loves them.
Gio drops a bombshell thought - could Harbaugh end up with the Bills or even...the Eagles?

This show is packed, covering the Jets' 15-year playoff shame and the Chiefs' stunning loss—a game Boomer called one of Mahomes' worst—while the Giants somehow grabbed the #1 draft pick. Get the full breakdown of Daniel Jones' latest injury, the controversial non-TD calls and the horrific Raiders field goal that sparked Dave Portnoy's fury and a 10,000-to-1 caller win. Plus, we debate whether Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza can handle New York, dive into NFL smut with the Braxton Berrios/Alix Earle breakup, mark the boring one-year anniversary of the Soto signing, and give you the viral "thick guy with a tiny choad" Moment of the Day that you have to hear!
The Jets suffered a quick, demoralizing 21-0 loss as the resting Giants lucked into the #1 draft pick, while the Chiefs plummeted below .500 after a Texans loss, and Joe Burrow's late picks cost the Bengals. We've got Aaron Glenn's reaction to the Jets' demise, coverage of Daniel Jones' latest injury, and the unbelievable Raiders field goal that caused a furious Dave Portnoy and crushed bettors, including the story of a caller who hit a 10,000-to-1 longshot for just $2.50!
Gio suspects a tequila-fueled Boomer was active on Twitter after a weekend where the Jets sealed their 15-year playoff shame and the Chiefs looked terrible in a loss Boomer called Mahomes' worst game. They debate if Boomer's new favorite, Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, can handle New York—especially with his religious post-game talk—before Jerry checks in after trying to score a pic with Jerry Jones. Finally, Gio delivers the NFL smut on Braxton Berrios' breakup (blamed on sexy DWTS dancing!) and the rumors connecting Jaxson Dart to a ring girl after an unlikely bad beat ruined bettors' Sunday.
We start with the hilarious viral photo of Pete Hoffman's Christmas sweatpants that sparked the unforgettable "thick guy with a tiny choad" joke. Lamar Jackson's fiery response to being called "overrated," the Jets extending their playoff drought to 15 years, the Chiefs' loss fueled by a disastrous Andy Reid 4th-down call, and the Bills' comeback win over the Bengals thanks to two key Joe Burrow interceptions.
