(01:49):
hour from now on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. Now
a quickie conversation based off a funny meme Danny G
sent us last night.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
That's gone a bit viral. If you want to read it,
I'd appreciate it. Cove a last skill?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
What's a lost skill that the current generation lacks understanding
of Okay, let's chop it up, let's think about it.
I got a feel you know where you often see
this on videos that go viral, where you see parents
hand over a teenage kid a weeniel. They'll hand this
weenial rotary phone. Yeah, and they're like, dial that number.
(02:23):
And it's not necessarily a skill, but it's a skill
we had, like you mentioned Rich memorizing phone numbers.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
These kids have no idea how to do it.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
They're handed a cassette. Yeah, they don't know how to
put it in and play it.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Speaking of Danny G that was one of my thoughts
I wrote down. They'll never understand, they'll never have a
complete understanding when it comes to the art of the mixtape. Yeah,
they know what making playlists are all about, but they'll
never know the art of the of the mixtape.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Yeah you real mixtape?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Where that came from the word tape?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Hey, oh exactly. I wrote that mixtape too.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Is because I said, yeah, you can hand someone and
be like, hey, here's a link. I put together a
great Spotify playlist. There is an art and a love
and arts and shun and like you made the time
you gave that to somebody. Oh my goodness, you put
so much heart and thought into that. Well, now just
go on Spotify or Apple or Amazon or any app
for that matter, and you're just dropping in dragon songs.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
It's like AI, it does all the work for you.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I mean, how about this hold on.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
They'll never have a complete understanding like you could tell them,
but they'll know.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
They'll not know everything.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
And that one song that you couldn't buy or you
couldn't find, You're you're waiting on the radio for it
to play, and then you're just hoping that bozo DJ
guys that we grew up to be didn't talk over
the introduction. So there was so much involved in the
art of the mixtape that kids lack understanding of. I
want to open this conversation up a little bit because
(03:46):
I think we'll get better answers if I adjust the
question a little bit. Sure, because the phones are all hot,
and I feel like I want to angle it a
little bit differently. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I'm with you. I don't think we should keep it
too just skill. I think it.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Should be something that we were so into or a
part of our lives that our kids generation will not know.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
I don't think it needs to be necessarily a skill.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
You know, you know what I'm talking about, just like
I'll give you one the things that were a big
part of our life. For instance, if you wanted to
get to a big time concert or go to a
Dodger's opening day or Yankees opening day, you would have
to wait outside a store in a long line for
Ticketmaster to open it, like your local video store.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
They don't know that hassle.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
They're just like, dad, mom, could you go on stub
Hub or seat geek or something like. They don't know
the struggle of hoping that there weren't too many people
in line. Yeah, And I have these conversations all the time.
I have a teenage pain in the ass, I mean
teenage daughter who often asks me like, well, Dad, if
you had to meet up with somebody, well, what would
you do. I'm like, Oh, I'm glad you ask, because
(04:50):
I think you have a lack of understanding of how
times were and we didn't have no way of communicating.
We'd have text messaging or cell phones or anything like that.
You would just find the biggest, their popular landmark, like
Yankee Stadium for example, you see the Big Bat at
Yankee Stadium, I don't know you'd meet there or you'd
have a meeting spot, like you really had no way
at that's how you met up? Or what if your
(05:12):
friend was at the mall though, how would you find them?
I'm like, I don't know, you just you just would
try to find them. That's all circle until you find
you said the Big Bat. How many times if you're
an old school Mets fan, or you know, even at
City Field after Shea Stadium, how many times have you
met someone at that big Apple? Yeah, at me at
the Apple or at Dodger Stadium they got that big bubblehead.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Meeting someone that was.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
A big one.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I think the popularity of certain things too, that these
kids they'll know and you could tell them, but they'll
never know. They lack an understanding. Like I'll give you
this is a stupid one.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
We mentioned bo Jackson before, like you could tell them
all day he was the greatest, but they lack understanding
because he never really won anything.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
They don't know. This is dumb.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
But it's like the character pac Man. Like when I
was a little kid, Packman was huge, huge, turned into
a cartoon a cereal lunchbox, like pac Man swept the
nation for me as a kid, and that was my pocket, right,
And then of course, you know, super Mario became a
thing and all that. But because super Mario became a thing,
because Sonic became a thing, and there was so many
(06:17):
other iconic characters. Since no one really even talks about
pac Man and how big he was.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I'll be honest.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Can we know it was a couple of years older
than me. Pacman before my time, I never played pac fans.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I was huge.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I remember I was. I was a little boy, and
I got an intention. It was huge when I was little.
But I know the legacy. You know, you bring this
up all the time, Rich, how to keep score? Kids
will never whole list? No, I wrote that. I had
it written down too. I wrote down bowling score and
baseball score, like I remember going to the game, and
(06:48):
I thought it was sort of cool to be like,
I'm gonna keep baseball score.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
And we met.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
We learned just last week, right, that they don't sell
programs at most baseball stadiums anywhere, the idea.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Of get your program. No one's buying a program.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
And if you play sports, now, have you got kids
in Little League or pony ball. There's a mom on
the team and she has an app and there's no
even like keeping score.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It's on an app.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
You know, kids lack understanding of this is great because
I deal with this all the time because my daughter's
in high school. And then it'll dawn on them like wait,
well wait dad, how did you do that? And how
did you print out a paper? I'm like, well, I
would either have my mom type it out at work
and then bring it home because she was willing to
help me out. Or we had something called the word
(07:32):
process and then you have to explain to them what
that is and they're like, wait, so was it a
computer And you're like, well, not really, I don't know.
I was a typewriter. Well it was I a typewriter.
I mean we had a typewriter too.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Along those lines, all kids know is texting their friends.
Last week, my wife was talking to our teenager because
she was telling her, well, you're probably not paying attention
in that class. She got her progress report? What do
you pass it? Notes with your friends? And check? What
do you mean passing?
Speaker 5 (08:02):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Dude, hold on, you know you brought up something else,
that's right, up in that same category because of the
communication that's available in today's world. Your kid could email
the teacher. Oh yeah, they don't know the assignment. They
get their grades in real time. Like if you were
a kid, and chances are I wasn't the only bozo.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
I was like, what's the homework assignment? Again?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You'd have to like try to hope your buddy knew
what it was or how to do it, because there
was no communicating with the teacher.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
The teacher posts notes and homework online on the school website.
I'm the school act.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
We have any every day. My daughter's teacher and my
son's teacher. They're uploading pictures on class dojo, and there's
all these little parent apps. Do you remember the empty
feeling of not knowing like what the assignment was, or
what page, or what exactly it was, or how to
do it?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
None of that anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Rich they'll never really understand that little struggle we had
as kids going up. You know what else, they'll never
know the lost art of waking up early to make
sure you got all your Saturday morning cartoons in because
they're so spoiled with on demand everything. The lost art
of blank That's what we're going here on a throw
back Thursday. Let me let me hit you a couple more.
(09:13):
Younger generations just lack an understanding of it.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I saw a.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Funny meme and it sort of encapsulates this thought. Back
in the day, we would wait until eight or nine
pm because your phone plan had free nights and weekends,
and you'd worry about your rollover minutes and how many
minutes do I have? Now no one wants to talk
to anyone. Texting was like almost to throw in at
(09:37):
free texting, like no one cared. It was how many
minutes do you have? And then I got to ask
what happened to all of our rollover minutes? That is
so funny, dude, minutes an the nights and weekends thing,
y'all call you back at nine o'clock?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Or how about this?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
You know the calling card that we had to have
when we traveled.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Oh yeah, remember your parents would be if someone called
long distance long distance.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
It's a lack of it really comes down to the
lack of understanding that younger generations have today. I got
another one that everyone in this room did, and if
you didn't, then you're just a nerd. How many times
did you master the art of calling a girl for
your buddy while he was listening in. Oh, yeah, that's
(10:22):
the best is that wouldn't be a thing anymore.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
But Danny. If Danny's like Billy Madison did it, Yeah,
that was the last two people to do it.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Billy, that would be like if Danny and I were
friends his kids and he's like, you're rich.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I really got a crush on Jessica, so I'd be like, hey, Jessica, yeah,
it's rich, just curious. Meanwhile, Danny's listening on the other line.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
What do you think of Danny G I think he's
sort of cute, So you think he's cute? A thanks
by yo, bro? Yeah, I mean how many times did
you do that little act?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
That's the lost start of being a wingman on the phone. Yeah,
that's really what it is.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So we go to the phones based on the meme
throwback Thursday, old school and fifty hits, a lost skill
or just anything that the current generation lacks understanding of,
no matter how much you tell them. You know, you
brought up your daughter asking how people communicated. I was
recently reminded by a buddy of mine. I went to
school in the late nineties, early two thousands in college,
(11:22):
graduated early two thousands. I'm the generation that went to
college without a cell phone, and by the end of
college we had cell phones. So I think back to,
like my freshman year late nineties. If you went to
the bar and you wanted to communicate that to your buddy,
you remember writing on people's dry erase boards in their
(11:42):
dorm room, like on your dorm room door. You would
have a dry erase board and you'd be like, Yo, John,
we're gonna be at o'flanigan's at nine o'clock and you
just left them a dry race message. And if you
didn't have it, you'd have to leave a note somehow,
like Sean never knew where you were, But did you
know the lost art of Also, you said past notes, Danny.
You got me thinking of how every day I'd fold
(12:04):
up a little note in the shape of little football,
the little trial, and I would pass my girlfriend, my
high school girlfriend, a little note in between like third
and fourth period, like hey babe, love you.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Kids back then had that particular skill how to fold
those little notes.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
I don't remember when the teacher would intercept one and
hold it up and make an example out of the
you know, the two people she found corresponding with each other.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Now you bringing up sore subject, dandy g I had.
I had a girl one time. She was like drawing
me pornographic pictures. I sort of gotten she was, and
she was passing them to me, and a teacher intercepted one.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Remember a lot of the teachers would have the sanders
in the back.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
A lot of the teachers had the roof. If I
find it, I'm gonna read it out loud, and so
we'd get like instant entertainment as the teacher would read
the cheesy letter.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Then you know, I have a gross story that I'm
even skept I'm hesitant to tell.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Now you gotta tell it.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I have to tell.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
But before I tell that one the story com you
will tells.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I'm not finishing it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
This girl for trying to keep it clean on Fox
Sports Radio, let's just say she was.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
She drew pictures of a sailor with a huge hat
anchor anchor.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Yeah, shed you a picture of a sailor with a
huge anchor and with a huge plank, And she handed
it to Cavino and the teacher intercepted it. And I
remember you said, your mom was called like why some
girls sending your son pictures of a nation?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
She got a lot of trouble. I didn't do anything. Yeah,
I did nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
I remember being like, oh man, but yeah, people are
always passing notes.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
You know what they had to be crafty about. You
had to fold it up real nice. They still do
that in one place today in prison. Yeah, pass the note,
but they have like a little fish line. And Sam
knows from experience I do, or from watching Lock Up Sam,
soh Jailbird. Let's go to your phones eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox. Get You Involved, We Love Reminiscent
(13:50):
on a Thursday.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Quickly tell the one embarrassing So it's not me, but
I remember, you know the one teacher. There was always
the teacher that was so sweet but gullible, and you
always felt bad, like the delinquent guys are being so
mean to her. You know you know what I'm talking about.
There was always like like an older, nice lady teacher.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yeah, and usually a substitute.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And the scummy dudes in your class would always do
rude things to her.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah, you know, old old. I'll call her old. Miss
Melville was like, if I catch someone with a note.
I'm gonna take it and read it aloud.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
So these guys, this is gross. They intentionally knew they'd
get caught. So let's just say someone reached down their
pants and pulled out some hair, put it in a note,
passed it intentionally.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Miss Melville intercepts it. Okay, she opens the note in
front of the class and a bunch of hair falls
on her.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So the lost art of being a dirt bag. Yeah,
being a trash bag. How about the last time, speaking
of school, micro fish because your kid ask you, well,
if you had to do a book report, had well, honey,
there was something called microfish and a card catalog.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
You had to know how to do these things. I
was looking back that system stunk. Yeah, it was the worst.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
I'd use that one time in college and I was like,
this is and I will only remember it from like
ace Ventura remember when he had to he went through
all the old Miami dolphins rosters like on micros.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
It was before the birds. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
That was the only cold use of microfish in humanity
when ace Ventura tried to check track down Finkle. But dad,
what if you had to look stuff up? Like well,
we had encyclopedias. I guess shout out to Funk and
Wagnalls and Britannica and Charlie.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Brown Cyclopedia Britannica. Thank you so again.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
The lack of understanding things that this current generation or
younger generation is just lack of understanding of the lost
art of blank. Let's start with Trip in Vegas. You're
on with convenion. Rich was up Trip.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Hey, gentlemen, every show is better than the last.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Thanks brother. Let's spread that room.
Speaker 7 (15:59):
A few and then I want to add one because
when Rich changed the parameters a little bit, so I
would say cursive, developing film, reading a map, changing a tire.
And then the one thing when you're talking about it
not a skill, but they missed Black Friday. We used
to have to stand in line if no stores are open.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Now well, I mean I made the this past Thanksgiving.
I made the observation that Cyber Monday almost bigger now
and Black Friday is gonna be a thing of the past.
It's gonna be best known for a good football games
because the NFL is going to tackle that holiday. Pun intended,
but he brought up one that if it was interesting, Cavino,
he said, developing pictures.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Now they don't even have to use the camera.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
I'm saying now the idea of like all right, I'm
gonna take a live photo, so there's no chance my
kid could blink, not only that upside down portrait mode,
all the little tricks people have back then. As Sebastian metascalco,
aren't you embarrassed? Doesn't need to do a bit where
you'd go to sea World, Shampy Orca, shamouo would jump out,
your mom would be a click, hope I got it.
(17:00):
You would just hope you got the picture. You would
develop pictures and your mom would bring them home. You
be like, yeah, I wonder if they came out good.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Only like thirty percent of them were just blurry or
eyes closed, a red eye, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Yeah, you and we had throwaway cameras. We even had
the throwaway cameras that went into the water, remember.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Yeah waterproof and so people were expensive.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Yeah, you know, a junk drawer in your kitchen or
in your house, maybe people would ever drawer with tons
of throwaway cameras, just meaning to get those developed, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Uh. Sack Town one of our favorite seawn. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Brother?
Speaker 8 (17:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:34):
My flashback food.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Man.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
You always had me cracking up at.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
These bro Thanks Man.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
First of all, Rich, what a dirty.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Dog you were in elementary school?
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Man, that poor teacher.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
That wasn't me.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Just for the record, that was not me. I was
in that class. Rich had no hair, so it couldn't
have been had it couldn't been right.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Yeah, Rich was patting a baldy on their wrist.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
They used to call them bald overnould.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
These kids would never know about the art of magic glove.
You don't know what I'm talking about. Man, telling you
home girl that you have a little crush on her.
Home girl, get on the phone doing three way calls
at nighttime, trying to trying to plant the seed so
that you could one day take her out out the
day to the movies. These kids have no idea what
that's all about.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
They're too busy streaming.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
It was the the game.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
It was like you had to have game right.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
But our game was so different than game today because
you realize a game today revolves around you have to
be you have to have online games.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
I was just gonna say, you read social media game.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
That's a great point. Because we had teen centers, we
had the skating rink, we had the bowling alley. We
had to meet up at places with lots of other kids.
There was no There was no phone to phone going
on except rich as you mentioned, you know the long
cord on the phone, and you try to hide in
your room and make it all. Yeah, but most of
the time our parents did not want us busying up
the lines, especially when the Internet became a thing. Remember,
(18:52):
get off the phone. I'm trying to I'm trying to
dial up to the internet. These are all great examples.
You know, I had something happened to you. I'm sure
that was the most refreshing thing based on this conversation.
You know, we were home in the afternoon, yes, say,
because we were filling it for DP all the kids
out here in La spring Break.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Long story short, I got a knock on the door.
I'm like, was it telemarker?
Speaker 4 (19:13):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Someone's trying to sell me solar? What's going on? Would
you believe this is the cutest thing?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
My son. There's a kid down the block that's also
five years old. He came up with his dad and
he's like, yeah, we want to know if Benny wanted
to play basketball in the driveway.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
I was this thrilled this could be I'm like this
nineteen eighty something dude. It felt like it.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
And it was the coolest feeling because at first, mIRC
who's knocking at my door? The neighborhood kid wanted my
son to come play basketball.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yer just asked what time it was out? They're playing basketball?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, eleven pm, dad, No, but it was. But it was.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
It was so refreshing. I was like, yo, I told
the dad. I'm like, yo, I love your style.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
I'm in. I'll walk over.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And then I left my son there for a bit.
I'm like, dude, you're across the street playing basketball. Be
a kid, all right. I want to go rapid fire.
Let's do it. Let's get you involved. You now, let's go.
Uh Pete in Iowa.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Hey, Hey, how you guys doing?
Speaker 3 (20:05):
What's before?
Speaker 8 (20:06):
I say my one thing I I we we forgot
is a real quick story about my back In next
eighty eight, we went to a Laker game. I was
like fifteen years old. My mom dropped us off, me
and my buddy at the parking lots and we'll see you.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
In three hours.
Speaker 8 (20:21):
That don't happen anymore.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Oh yeah, like your parents dropping you see you later.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
What's that?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
No?
Speaker 8 (20:29):
No, yeah, they dropped they dropped this off. They will
see you in three hours. So I had one of
those old ken Ay one cameras. I stuck up to
the rings court side, took great pictures of Kareem do
a skyhooks I magine doing no look past and I
acted in the open of the back door and ruined
all my photos. So that was the hard ship. I
still think about that today.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
That's the worst. Thanks for the call, Peter. You had
all these great photos, really, and I think about too rich.
I don't think I was gonna say this, But again,
like my daughter asks me these questions all the time, like, well, Melody,
we used to have to call for one.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
One, what's that? Well? If I needed the number two?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
I don't know the put to Blockbuster Video, because I
wanted to know if they had the if they had
a from Dusk fill Dawn on VHS, I'd have to
call them.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
Wasn't that answered by a real person too?
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Can I have the number of Blockbuster Video operator in Union,
New Jersey place? And they would look it up and
you'd call information and she's like blown away by that stuff,
and it goes to show you how easy. You know,
there's a lot of challenges in today's world, but how
easy it is have everything at your fingertips. Just just
a new set of challenges. Jeff in New York State
Covino and Rich what's up?
Speaker 4 (21:38):
Man? Yeah, I was calling. I remember playing Fantasy football
pre internet.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Oh my god, how many calculations did you have to do?
Break out the calculator, Jeff, Chris in the Machines, Oh
my god, Yeah, you want to know who won the
next day. I was saying, just recently in New York,
Danny g the late baseball games, it would just say
late game. You know, I wouldn't know, like you would
have to That's insane. You would have to wait. Like
(22:03):
all the Dodgers who won lesson late game. We would
say they're in the dayly news. All right, Uh, Chris
and Nevada.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
All right, y'all gotta be going way way back.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
But what about Bammer?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Y'all remember that Bammer?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Bammer. I feel like he's just a punchline.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
You don't know about Bamer? We I know I should,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Is that a d nuts joke?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I feel like I was being set up yeah, I
felt like something was coming right, Yeah, exactly, I guess
I felt the setup. So if not, Chris, I'm sorry
you felt like a trickster. All right, Arizona wrapping up?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Chris got up.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Ez, Hey, how's it going, guys? Thanks for taking the
phone call.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
No problem.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
So I got two of them. First one is be
kind rewind. They'll never know the uh, the pain of
having to rewind your your tape. And then number two
is map quest. I don't know how we got through
those fifteen pages just to get an hour and a
half up state, or how about.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Just using a map period. I don't know how I
did go growing up.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
If you handed a kid nowadays a map, they would
be so confused.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Looking back, I'm amazed I survived that era because I'm like,
how did I get anywhere?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
What did he say?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Be kyrie wand that that was That was the That
was one of those indicators, like you know how they say, like,
are you the type of person that returns your shopping cart?
Otherwise you're in a hole. If you return your Blockbuster
video without rewinding it, don't know you'd get charged a
little fine, but it's like a dollar fifty weeks but
I feel like that was a reflection of like what
type of person, Rich, What are you gonna do when
your when your son Benny says, well, Dad, how did
(23:27):
you watch smut?
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Well?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Do you explaining him like scrambled smut? Or are you
tell them about like sneaking in to find your dad.
I'm gonna have to say, Ben, when I was your age,
I didn't have all this free internet porn teenage son.
What I did was I took my dad. I found
my dad's smut and made sure to rewind it to
the exact spot he left off. See now, I asked
the lost art that they'll never really understand, and I,
you know and know what I had to do, Son,
(23:50):
I had to put sports illustrated covers on club magazines. Yep, yep,
just to keep away from mom. They'll never know the
struggle and the lost art of doing all of these things.
And the rest of your answers, And thanks for playing

(25:45):
reliant on technology to remember everything for you. That's why
we challenge you to use your brain every once in
a while, because it's so easy to just google something.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
I'll give you one that you could argue is still around.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
To wrap this up, the laws are anyone else's phone
number anymore? Or how to get anywhere because you're so
reliant on your phone. I remember you and I sort
of debated this. Maybe in the last five years. You
had run out of business cards and you were like,
should I order new ones? I'm like, I don't even
know who I'm maybe professionally, But now with like apps
(26:19):
where you could tap phones and get the info, like
the idea.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Of someone be like, here's my business card? Is that
is that old school?
Speaker 6 (26:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Is that sort of like very outdated?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
I have one more in mark? He hit us up
on Twitter. Was thinking along the same lines as me.
I wrote down personal finances because everything is you know,
once these kids get a checking account, Like my son
is eighteen and he finally got his first bank account
and everything. Imagine him having to learn how to write
a check or balance a check book. Yeah, oh my god,
(26:47):
are you kidding me? He barely can use his ATM card.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
He just that's such a great one, balancing your check book.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah, right, Kids today would have a complete lack of
understanding and knowledge on how to do something.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Like that all so much. My daughter didn't know how
to money either. The other day she.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Needed That's what I'm saying. They're used to the parents
giving them zells, like hey, dad.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Just give them the cash and they'll give you the change.
So you go, how does that work?
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'm like what? Or like you want to get a
dollar back?
Speaker 6 (27:14):
Like and so you give someone like a five dollars
and ten cents and if it's four bucks, and then
get the dollar back and.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Then they're like confused, Oh, I have a lot of
understanding of a lot And again your answers at Covino
and Rich.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
We throw it back every Thursday. It's right now.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
We're live from the tire rack dot Com studio, and
be sure to check out the YouTube channel. In fact,
our bonus podcast Over Promised, which starts about twenty minutes
that streams live on the YouTube channel. You could see
what we're doing, and a bunch of great clips from
not only our show, the whole network, Fox Sports Radio,
and and to sort of wrap that before we get
into the NBA, A lot of great feedback when we
go old school, Danny. I talked about it the other
(27:48):
day when we filled in for DP. My daughter went
with her friend for Hello Kiddy Night at Dodger Stadium. Yeah,
and she came home with a Dodger's hat, and I
was like sort of angry about this.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
I love those people that took her to the game.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
My mom, my wife, my wife was like, you do
call her mama once in a while, No, my wife doesn't.
My wife forgets sometimes and she'll call me dad and
daddy like in public.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I'm like, you know, the kids aren't.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Here, Oh, because she's so used to referring like daddy. Yeah,
hey daddy, Yes, so my wife's big daddy. My wife
says this to me, and I looked at her like,
I'm like, we had a time machine?
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Was this nineteen ninety eight?
Speaker 2 (28:26):
She goes, should I send emmy to the game with
like some cash? Give her like forty bucks or twenty bucks.
I'm like, oh, just send her the game. I'll text
the parents if you want anything, will zell you or
venmo you or something. She's like, so give her no cash.
I'm like, babe, I don't even know if Dodger Stadium
takes cash. That's like, I mean, do you operate in
cash at a stadium even anymore? You tap your card,
(28:49):
you tap your phone.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
We live in a different world. Yeah, I don't know
how to blame your parents. She used to have to
pin five dollars onto our shirt for a field trip.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Right now, we'll talk a little NBA before Dan Byer's update.
But some good games yesterday. Props to the Heat. Heat
over the Bulls, Mavericks over the Kings. Got to wait again?
What Friday? Right continues on Friday? Yeah, the final playing games.
But I think that the eyes are all on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
And did you.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
See Anthony Edwards. He was He was pretty vocal, Danny
G saying, oh, he talks a lot. It goes like it. Listen,
I know that no one wants us to win, No
one wants the t Wolves to win, no one wants
us to advance.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
He's cool with that, and he's cool with it. And
you know, some.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
People like playing the role of spoilers underdog, but that's
that's a Saturday matchup. I think Saturday, the Western Conference,
to me, is so compelling. It's the matchups. You know,
when the NFC and the AFC playoff pictures are coming
together in football and you're like, oh, man, if this
team wins the tiebreaker, we get better matchups. I do
think by the Golden State Warriors losing that last game
(29:52):
and having to do the play in, I really do
think it gave us cooler matchups. I love Kawhi and
that Clippers team playing the Nuggets in the first round.
I like the te Wolves and Lakers playing, and I
sort of like the Warriors having to go to Houston,
which on paper is a better team, but playoff Jimmy
and Steph in the playoffs, like I think the matchups
(30:14):
are so good. Jimmy Butler's attitude. I mean again, he's
playoff Jimmy, so this is when he steps it up.
But I love that he gives Steph the credit he
deserves and that's why it works. He's like, I'll be
his robin to his batman all the time. Like it's
cool to see their camaraderie. In the respect he has
(30:35):
for Steph Curry, because they're gonna be tough to deal with.
They have such a chance with both of those guys
playing well. I think the Western Conference has has not
only unraveled and unfolded the way we want his fans,
but the NBA, as far as ratings go, honestly, the
fact that you got the Clippers who played great this year,
the fact that the Clippers are going to Denver, like
I said, t Wolves, Lakers, Warriors, Rockets, and then the
(31:00):
one throwaway series we'll probably get to see Oklahoma City
dominate round one against whoever.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
And about ad last night though, and Klay Thompson found
the Fountain of Youth three.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
You know what, Danny, you could argue that if a
d and Clay and that team gets it together. Oh
if Kyrie hadn't got hurt. Ad was in the zone.
Everything about him was in the zone. Body language, the
way he played.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Yeah, we talked about attitude first time suiting up for
the MAVs. I mean it was only two and a
half quarters, but he was locked and loaded man, and
the way he played with Kyrie was pretty amazing. So
they would have definitely been a threat in the West
had Kyrie not gone down with that injury.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Well, the big story today is, you know, we started
off with Aaron Rodgers. There's two big stories in the news,
and that's Aaron Rodgers and as Dame Lillard. And he's
been cleared of the deep vein thrombosis in his right calf.
They announced that today, So he's practicing today. He's out
for the game on Saturday, but it looks like he'll
(31:57):
be ready moving forward after that, which is kind of cool.
Vain throw on Bosa sounds like something you get when
you see a good looking girl pass vain thrumb post
deep vain thrumbos man, take your eyes over her.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
I'm getting some vain throw boss.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
So that's talking about perfect timing, though, and when it
counts and when it matters that's big.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Big news in the NBA. Well, for more updates, let's
go to our buddy, Dan Bayer. Dan. The Dame news
is pretty big for the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
Yeah, yeah, interesting because do you think that the Bucks
not that they're better without Damian Lillard. I think that
there's uh yes.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Yes, and for the long run it'd be better to
have him. But they got to.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Get past the Spacers series first. We'll see how it
works out. Is give you no said. It's Game one
on Saturday and it's the first game of the playoffs
to being off one o'clock Eastern time. Couple of other
notes from the NBA. Grisies guard John Murant game time
decision for tomorrow, and the Kings are hiring former nixt

Speaker 3 (33:32):
Alright, he's hit another one.

O'Neil Cruz with another home run.

(01:49):
hour from now on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. Now
a quickie conversation based off a funny meme Danny G
sent us last night.
Speaker 1 (01:55):
That's gone a bit viral. If you want to read it,
I'd appreciate it. Cove a last skill?
Speaker 2 (02:00):
What's a lost skill that the current generation lacks understanding
of Okay, let's chop it up, let's think about it.
I got a feel you know where you often see
this on videos that go viral, where you see parents
hand over a teenage kid a weeniel. They'll hand this
weenial rotary phone. Yeah, and they're like, dial that number.
(02:23):
And it's not necessarily a skill, but it's a skill
we had, like you mentioned Rich memorizing phone numbers.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
These kids have no idea how to do it.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
They're handed a cassette. Yeah, they don't know how to
put it in and play it.
Speaker 1 (02:35):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
Speaking of Danny G that was one of my thoughts
I wrote down. They'll never understand, they'll never have a
complete understanding when it comes to the art of the mixtape. Yeah,
they know what making playlists are all about, but they'll
never know the art of the of the mixtape.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
Yeah you real mixtape?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Where that came from the word tape?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Hey, oh exactly. I wrote that mixtape too.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Is because I said, yeah, you can hand someone and
be like, hey, here's a link. I put together a
great Spotify playlist. There is an art and a love
and arts and shun and like you made the time
you gave that to somebody. Oh my goodness, you put
so much heart and thought into that. Well, now just
go on Spotify or Apple or Amazon or any app
for that matter, and you're just dropping in dragon songs.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
It's like AI, it does all the work for you.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
I mean, how about this hold on.
Speaker 2 (03:20):
They'll never have a complete understanding like you could tell them,
but they'll know.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
They'll not know everything.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
And that one song that you couldn't buy or you
couldn't find, You're you're waiting on the radio for it
to play, and then you're just hoping that bozo DJ
guys that we grew up to be didn't talk over
the introduction. So there was so much involved in the
art of the mixtape that kids lack understanding of. I
want to open this conversation up a little bit because
(03:46):
I think we'll get better answers if I adjust the
question a little bit. Sure, because the phones are all hot,
and I feel like I want to angle it a
little bit differently. Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
I'm with you. I don't think we should keep it
too just skill. I think it.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
Should be something that we were so into or a
part of our lives that our kids generation will not know.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
I don't think it needs to be necessarily a skill.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
You know, you know what I'm talking about, just like
I'll give you one the things that were a big
part of our life. For instance, if you wanted to
get to a big time concert or go to a
Dodger's opening day or Yankees opening day, you would have
to wait outside a store in a long line for
Ticketmaster to open it, like your local video store.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
They don't know that hassle.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
They're just like, dad, mom, could you go on stub
Hub or seat geek or something like. They don't know
the struggle of hoping that there weren't too many people
in line. Yeah, And I have these conversations all the time.
I have a teenage pain in the ass, I mean
teenage daughter who often asks me like, well, Dad, if
you had to meet up with somebody, well, what would
you do. I'm like, Oh, I'm glad you ask, because
(04:50):
I think you have a lack of understanding of how
times were and we didn't have no way of communicating.
We'd have text messaging or cell phones or anything like that.
You would just find the biggest, their popular landmark, like
Yankee Stadium for example, you see the Big Bat at
Yankee Stadium, I don't know you'd meet there or you'd
have a meeting spot, like you really had no way
at that's how you met up? Or what if your
(05:12):
friend was at the mall though, how would you find them?
I'm like, I don't know, you just you just would
try to find them. That's all circle until you find
you said the Big Bat. How many times if you're
an old school Mets fan, or you know, even at
City Field after Shea Stadium, how many times have you
met someone at that big Apple? Yeah, at me at
the Apple or at Dodger Stadium they got that big bubblehead.
Speaker 1 (05:34):
Meeting someone that was.
Speaker 3 (05:35):
A big one.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I think the popularity of certain things too, that these
kids they'll know and you could tell them, but they'll
never know. They lack an understanding. Like I'll give you
this is a stupid one.
Speaker 1 (05:46):
You know.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
We mentioned bo Jackson before, like you could tell them
all day he was the greatest, but they lack understanding
because he never really won anything.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
They don't know. This is dumb.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
But it's like the character pac Man. Like when I
was a little kid, Packman was huge, huge, turned into
a cartoon a cereal lunchbox, like pac Man swept the
nation for me as a kid, and that was my pocket, right,
And then of course, you know, super Mario became a
thing and all that. But because super Mario became a thing,
because Sonic became a thing, and there was so many
(06:17):
other iconic characters. Since no one really even talks about
pac Man and how big he was.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
I'll be honest.
Speaker 2 (06:23):
Can we know it was a couple of years older
than me. Pacman before my time, I never played pac fans.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
I was huge.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
I remember I was. I was a little boy, and
I got an intention. It was huge when I was little.
But I know the legacy. You know, you bring this
up all the time, Rich, how to keep score? Kids
will never whole list? No, I wrote that. I had
it written down too. I wrote down bowling score and
baseball score, like I remember going to the game, and
(06:48):
I thought it was sort of cool to be like,
I'm gonna keep baseball score.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
And we met.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
We learned just last week, right, that they don't sell
programs at most baseball stadiums anywhere, the idea.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Of get your program. No one's buying a program.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
And if you play sports, now, have you got kids
in Little League or pony ball. There's a mom on
the team and she has an app and there's no
even like keeping score.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
It's on an app.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
You know, kids lack understanding of this is great because
I deal with this all the time because my daughter's
in high school. And then it'll dawn on them like wait,
well wait dad, how did you do that? And how
did you print out a paper? I'm like, well, I
would either have my mom type it out at work
and then bring it home because she was willing to
help me out. Or we had something called the word
(07:32):
process and then you have to explain to them what
that is and they're like, wait, so was it a
computer And you're like, well, not really, I don't know.
I was a typewriter. Well it was I a typewriter.
I mean we had a typewriter too.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Along those lines, all kids know is texting their friends.
Last week, my wife was talking to our teenager because
she was telling her, well, you're probably not paying attention
in that class. She got her progress report? What do
you pass it? Notes with your friends? And check? What
do you mean passing?
Speaker 5 (08:02):
No?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Dude, hold on, you know you brought up something else,
that's right, up in that same category because of the
communication that's available in today's world. Your kid could email
the teacher. Oh yeah, they don't know the assignment. They
get their grades in real time. Like if you were
a kid, and chances are I wasn't the only bozo.
Speaker 1 (08:21):
I was like, what's the homework assignment? Again?
Speaker 2 (08:24):
You'd have to like try to hope your buddy knew
what it was or how to do it, because there
was no communicating with the teacher.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
The teacher posts notes and homework online on the school website.
I'm the school act.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
We have any every day. My daughter's teacher and my
son's teacher. They're uploading pictures on class dojo, and there's
all these little parent apps. Do you remember the empty
feeling of not knowing like what the assignment was, or
what page, or what exactly it was, or how to
do it?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
None of that anymore.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Rich they'll never really understand that little struggle we had
as kids going up. You know what else, they'll never
know the lost art of waking up early to make
sure you got all your Saturday morning cartoons in because
they're so spoiled with on demand everything. The lost art
of blank That's what we're going here on a throw
back Thursday. Let me let me hit you a couple more.
(09:13):
Younger generations just lack an understanding of it.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I saw a.
Speaker 2 (09:15):
Funny meme and it sort of encapsulates this thought. Back
in the day, we would wait until eight or nine
pm because your phone plan had free nights and weekends,
and you'd worry about your rollover minutes and how many
minutes do I have? Now no one wants to talk
to anyone. Texting was like almost to throw in at
(09:37):
free texting, like no one cared. It was how many
minutes do you have? And then I got to ask
what happened to all of our rollover minutes? That is
so funny, dude, minutes an the nights and weekends thing,
y'all call you back at nine o'clock?
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Or how about this?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
You know the calling card that we had to have
when we traveled.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Oh yeah, remember your parents would be if someone called
long distance long distance.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
It's a lack of it really comes down to the
lack of understanding that younger generations have today. I got
another one that everyone in this room did, and if
you didn't, then you're just a nerd. How many times
did you master the art of calling a girl for
your buddy while he was listening in. Oh, yeah, that's
(10:22):
the best is that wouldn't be a thing anymore.
Speaker 1 (10:24):
But Danny. If Danny's like Billy Madison did it, Yeah,
that was the last two people to do it.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
Billy, that would be like if Danny and I were
friends his kids and he's like, you're rich.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
I really got a crush on Jessica, so I'd be like, hey, Jessica, yeah,
it's rich, just curious. Meanwhile, Danny's listening on the other line.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
What do you think of Danny G I think he's
sort of cute, So you think he's cute? A thanks
by yo, bro? Yeah, I mean how many times did
you do that little act?
Speaker 1 (10:55):
That's the lost start of being a wingman on the phone. Yeah,
that's really what it is.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
So we go to the phones based on the meme
throwback Thursday, old school and fifty hits, a lost skill
or just anything that the current generation lacks understanding of,
no matter how much you tell them. You know, you
brought up your daughter asking how people communicated. I was
recently reminded by a buddy of mine. I went to
school in the late nineties, early two thousands in college,
(11:22):
graduated early two thousands. I'm the generation that went to
college without a cell phone, and by the end of
college we had cell phones. So I think back to,
like my freshman year late nineties. If you went to
the bar and you wanted to communicate that to your buddy,
you remember writing on people's dry erase boards in their
(11:42):
dorm room, like on your dorm room door. You would
have a dry erase board and you'd be like, Yo, John,
we're gonna be at o'flanigan's at nine o'clock and you
just left them a dry race message. And if you
didn't have it, you'd have to leave a note somehow,
like Sean never knew where you were, But did you
know the lost art of Also, you said past notes, Danny.
You got me thinking of how every day I'd fold
(12:04):
up a little note in the shape of little football,
the little trial, and I would pass my girlfriend, my
high school girlfriend, a little note in between like third
and fourth period, like hey babe, love you.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
Kids back then had that particular skill how to fold
those little notes.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
I don't remember when the teacher would intercept one and
hold it up and make an example out of the
you know, the two people she found corresponding with each other.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Now you bringing up sore subject, dandy g I had.
I had a girl one time. She was like drawing
me pornographic pictures. I sort of gotten she was, and
she was passing them to me, and a teacher intercepted one.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Remember a lot of the teachers would have the sanders
in the back.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
A lot of the teachers had the roof. If I
find it, I'm gonna read it out loud, and so
we'd get like instant entertainment as the teacher would read
the cheesy letter.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Then you know, I have a gross story that I'm
even skept I'm hesitant to tell.
Speaker 3 (12:53):
Now you gotta tell it.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
I have to tell.
Speaker 2 (12:55):
But before I tell that one the story com you
will tells.
Speaker 1 (13:00):
I'm not finishing it.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
This girl for trying to keep it clean on Fox
Sports Radio, let's just say she was.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
She drew pictures of a sailor with a huge hat
anchor anchor.
Speaker 2 (13:10):
Yeah, shed you a picture of a sailor with a
huge anchor and with a huge plank, And she handed
it to Cavino and the teacher intercepted it. And I
remember you said, your mom was called like why some
girls sending your son pictures of a nation?
Speaker 1 (13:22):
She got a lot of trouble. I didn't do anything. Yeah,
I did nothing at all.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
I remember being like, oh man, but yeah, people are
always passing notes.
Speaker 6 (13:29):
You know what they had to be crafty about. You
had to fold it up real nice. They still do
that in one place today in prison. Yeah, pass the note,
but they have like a little fish line. And Sam
knows from experience I do, or from watching Lock Up Sam,
soh Jailbird. Let's go to your phones eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox. Get You Involved, We Love Reminiscent
(13:50):
on a Thursday.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Quickly tell the one embarrassing So it's not me, but
I remember, you know the one teacher. There was always
the teacher that was so sweet but gullible, and you
always felt bad, like the delinquent guys are being so
mean to her. You know you know what I'm talking about.
There was always like like an older, nice lady teacher.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Yeah, and usually a substitute.
Speaker 2 (14:11):
And the scummy dudes in your class would always do
rude things to her.
Speaker 1 (14:15):
Yeah, you know, old old. I'll call her old. Miss
Melville was like, if I catch someone with a note.
I'm gonna take it and read it aloud.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
So these guys, this is gross. They intentionally knew they'd
get caught. So let's just say someone reached down their
pants and pulled out some hair, put it in a note,
passed it intentionally.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
Miss Melville intercepts it. Okay, she opens the note in
front of the class and a bunch of hair falls
on her.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
So the lost art of being a dirt bag. Yeah,
being a trash bag. How about the last time, speaking
of school, micro fish because your kid ask you, well,
if you had to do a book report, had well, honey,
there was something called microfish and a card catalog.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
You had to know how to do these things. I
was looking back that system stunk. Yeah, it was the worst.
Speaker 6 (15:10):
I'd use that one time in college and I was like,
this is and I will only remember it from like
ace Ventura remember when he had to he went through
all the old Miami dolphins rosters like on micros.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
It was before the birds. Anyway.
Speaker 2 (15:21):
That was the only cold use of microfish in humanity
when ace Ventura tried to check track down Finkle. But dad,
what if you had to look stuff up? Like well,
we had encyclopedias. I guess shout out to Funk and
Wagnalls and Britannica and Charlie.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
Brown Cyclopedia Britannica. Thank you so again.
Speaker 2 (15:40):
The lack of understanding things that this current generation or
younger generation is just lack of understanding of the lost
art of blank. Let's start with Trip in Vegas. You're
on with convenion. Rich was up Trip.
Speaker 7 (15:53):
Hey, gentlemen, every show is better than the last.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Thanks brother. Let's spread that room.
Speaker 7 (15:59):
A few and then I want to add one because
when Rich changed the parameters a little bit, so I
would say cursive, developing film, reading a map, changing a tire.
And then the one thing when you're talking about it
not a skill, but they missed Black Friday. We used
to have to stand in line if no stores are open.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Now well, I mean I made the this past Thanksgiving.
I made the observation that Cyber Monday almost bigger now
and Black Friday is gonna be a thing of the past.
It's gonna be best known for a good football games
because the NFL is going to tackle that holiday. Pun intended,
but he brought up one that if it was interesting, Cavino,
he said, developing pictures.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
Now they don't even have to use the camera.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
I'm saying now the idea of like all right, I'm
gonna take a live photo, so there's no chance my
kid could blink, not only that upside down portrait mode,
all the little tricks people have back then. As Sebastian metascalco,
aren't you embarrassed? Doesn't need to do a bit where
you'd go to sea World, Shampy Orca, shamouo would jump out,
your mom would be a click, hope I got it.
(17:00):
You would just hope you got the picture. You would
develop pictures and your mom would bring them home. You
be like, yeah, I wonder if they came out good.
Speaker 6 (17:07):
Only like thirty percent of them were just blurry or
eyes closed, a red eye, all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Yeah, you and we had throwaway cameras. We even had
the throwaway cameras that went into the water, remember.
Speaker 6 (17:18):
Yeah waterproof and so people were expensive.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
Yeah, you know, a junk drawer in your kitchen or
in your house, maybe people would ever drawer with tons
of throwaway cameras, just meaning to get those developed, no doubt.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
Uh. Sack Town one of our favorite seawn. What's going on?
Speaker 3 (17:32):
Brother?
Speaker 8 (17:33):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (17:34):
My flashback food.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Man.
Speaker 5 (17:35):
You always had me cracking up at.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
These bro Thanks Man.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
First of all, Rich, what a dirty.
Speaker 5 (17:39):
Dog you were in elementary school?
Speaker 4 (17:41):
Man, that poor teacher.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
That wasn't me.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
Just for the record, that was not me. I was
in that class. Rich had no hair, so it couldn't
have been had it couldn't been right.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
Yeah, Rich was patting a baldy on their wrist.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
They used to call them bald overnould.
Speaker 5 (17:54):
These kids would never know about the art of magic glove.
You don't know what I'm talking about. Man, telling you
home girl that you have a little crush on her.
Home girl, get on the phone doing three way calls
at nighttime, trying to trying to plant the seed so
that you could one day take her out out the
day to the movies. These kids have no idea what
that's all about.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
They're too busy streaming.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
It was the the game.
Speaker 1 (18:15):
It was like you had to have game right.
Speaker 2 (18:17):
But our game was so different than game today because
you realize a game today revolves around you have to
be you have to have online games.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
I was just gonna say, you read social media game.
Speaker 3 (18:29):
That's a great point. Because we had teen centers, we
had the skating rink, we had the bowling alley. We
had to meet up at places with lots of other kids.
There was no There was no phone to phone going
on except rich as you mentioned, you know the long
cord on the phone, and you try to hide in
your room and make it all. Yeah, but most of
the time our parents did not want us busying up
the lines, especially when the Internet became a thing. Remember,
(18:52):
get off the phone. I'm trying to I'm trying to
dial up to the internet. These are all great examples.
You know, I had something happened to you. I'm sure
that was the most refreshing thing based on this conversation.
You know, we were home in the afternoon, yes, say,
because we were filling it for DP all the kids
out here in La spring Break.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Long story short, I got a knock on the door.
I'm like, was it telemarker?
Speaker 4 (19:13):
What is it?
Speaker 1 (19:13):
Someone's trying to sell me solar? What's going on? Would
you believe this is the cutest thing?
Speaker 2 (19:19):
My son. There's a kid down the block that's also
five years old. He came up with his dad and
he's like, yeah, we want to know if Benny wanted
to play basketball in the driveway.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
I was this thrilled this could be I'm like this
nineteen eighty something dude. It felt like it.
Speaker 2 (19:32):
And it was the coolest feeling because at first, mIRC
who's knocking at my door? The neighborhood kid wanted my
son to come play basketball.
Speaker 3 (19:38):
Yer just asked what time it was out? They're playing basketball?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Yeah, eleven pm, dad, No, but it was. But it was.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
It was so refreshing. I was like, yo, I told
the dad. I'm like, yo, I love your style.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
I'm in. I'll walk over.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
And then I left my son there for a bit.
I'm like, dude, you're across the street playing basketball. Be
a kid, all right. I want to go rapid fire.
Let's do it. Let's get you involved. You now, let's go.
Uh Pete in Iowa.
Speaker 8 (20:02):
Hey, Hey, how you guys doing?
Speaker 3 (20:05):
What's before?
Speaker 8 (20:06):
I say my one thing I I we we forgot
is a real quick story about my back In next
eighty eight, we went to a Laker game. I was
like fifteen years old. My mom dropped us off, me
and my buddy at the parking lots and we'll see you.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
In three hours.
Speaker 8 (20:21):
That don't happen anymore.
Speaker 2 (20:22):
Oh yeah, like your parents dropping you see you later.
Speaker 8 (20:27):
What's that?
Speaker 4 (20:29):
No?
Speaker 8 (20:29):
No, yeah, they dropped they dropped this off. They will
see you in three hours. So I had one of
those old ken Ay one cameras. I stuck up to
the rings court side, took great pictures of Kareem do
a skyhooks I magine doing no look past and I
acted in the open of the back door and ruined
all my photos. So that was the hard ship. I
still think about that today.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
That's the worst. Thanks for the call, Peter. You had
all these great photos, really, and I think about too rich.
I don't think I was gonna say this, But again,
like my daughter asks me these questions all the time, like, well, Melody,
we used to have to call for one.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
One, what's that? Well? If I needed the number two?
Speaker 2 (21:05):
I don't know the put to Blockbuster Video, because I
wanted to know if they had the if they had
a from Dusk fill Dawn on VHS, I'd have to
call them.
Speaker 6 (21:15):
Wasn't that answered by a real person too?
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (21:18):
Can I have the number of Blockbuster Video operator in Union,
New Jersey place? And they would look it up and
you'd call information and she's like blown away by that stuff,
and it goes to show you how easy. You know,
there's a lot of challenges in today's world, but how
easy it is have everything at your fingertips. Just just
a new set of challenges. Jeff in New York State
Covino and Rich what's up?
Speaker 4 (21:38):
Man? Yeah, I was calling. I remember playing Fantasy football
pre internet.
Speaker 2 (21:43):
Oh my god, how many calculations did you have to do?
Break out the calculator, Jeff, Chris in the Machines, Oh
my god, Yeah, you want to know who won the
next day. I was saying, just recently in New York,
Danny g the late baseball games, it would just say
late game. You know, I wouldn't know, like you would
have to That's insane. You would have to wait. Like
(22:03):
all the Dodgers who won lesson late game. We would
say they're in the dayly news. All right, Uh, Chris
and Nevada.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
All right, y'all gotta be going way way back.
Speaker 7 (22:10):
But what about Bammer?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Y'all remember that Bammer?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Bammer. I feel like he's just a punchline.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
You don't know about Bamer? We I know I should,
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Is that a d nuts joke?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
I feel like I was being set up yeah, I
felt like something was coming right, Yeah, exactly, I guess
I felt the setup. So if not, Chris, I'm sorry
you felt like a trickster. All right, Arizona wrapping up?
Speaker 1 (22:32):
Chris got up.
Speaker 4 (22:32):
Ez, Hey, how's it going, guys? Thanks for taking the
phone call.
Speaker 1 (22:36):
No problem.
Speaker 4 (22:37):
So I got two of them. First one is be
kind rewind. They'll never know the uh, the pain of
having to rewind your your tape. And then number two
is map quest. I don't know how we got through
those fifteen pages just to get an hour and a
half up state, or how about.
Speaker 1 (22:52):
Just using a map period. I don't know how I
did go growing up.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
If you handed a kid nowadays a map, they would
be so confused.
Speaker 2 (23:01):
Looking back, I'm amazed I survived that era because I'm like,
how did I get anywhere?
Speaker 1 (23:05):
What did he say?
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Be kyrie wand that that was That was the That
was one of those indicators, like you know how they say, like,
are you the type of person that returns your shopping cart?
Otherwise you're in a hole. If you return your Blockbuster
video without rewinding it, don't know you'd get charged a
little fine, but it's like a dollar fifty weeks but
I feel like that was a reflection of like what
type of person, Rich, What are you gonna do when
your when your son Benny says, well, Dad, how did
(23:27):
you watch smut?
Speaker 8 (23:28):
Well?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Do you explaining him like scrambled smut? Or are you
tell them about like sneaking in to find your dad.
I'm gonna have to say, Ben, when I was your age,
I didn't have all this free internet porn teenage son.
What I did was I took my dad. I found
my dad's smut and made sure to rewind it to
the exact spot he left off. See now, I asked
the lost art that they'll never really understand, and I,
you know and know what I had to do, Son,
(23:50):
I had to put sports illustrated covers on club magazines. Yep, yep,
just to keep away from mom. They'll never know the
struggle and the lost art of doing all of these things.
And the rest of your answers, And thanks for playing

(25:45):
reliant on technology to remember everything for you. That's why
we challenge you to use your brain every once in
a while, because it's so easy to just google something.
Speaker 1 (25:55):
I'll give you one that you could argue is still around.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
To wrap this up, the laws are anyone else's phone
number anymore? Or how to get anywhere because you're so
reliant on your phone. I remember you and I sort
of debated this. Maybe in the last five years. You
had run out of business cards and you were like,
should I order new ones? I'm like, I don't even
know who I'm maybe professionally, But now with like apps
(26:19):
where you could tap phones and get the info, like
the idea.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Of someone be like, here's my business card? Is that
is that old school?
Speaker 6 (26:25):
Like?
Speaker 1 (26:25):
Is that sort of like very outdated?
Speaker 3 (26:26):
I have one more in mark? He hit us up
on Twitter. Was thinking along the same lines as me.
I wrote down personal finances because everything is you know,
once these kids get a checking account, Like my son
is eighteen and he finally got his first bank account
and everything. Imagine him having to learn how to write
a check or balance a check book. Yeah, oh my god,
(26:47):
are you kidding me? He barely can use his ATM card.
Speaker 1 (26:50):
He just that's such a great one, balancing your check book.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Yeah, right, Kids today would have a complete lack of
understanding and knowledge on how to do something.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Like that all so much. My daughter didn't know how
to money either. The other day she.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
Needed That's what I'm saying. They're used to the parents
giving them zells, like hey, dad.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
Just give them the cash and they'll give you the change.
So you go, how does that work?
Speaker 1 (27:11):
I'm like what? Or like you want to get a
dollar back?
Speaker 6 (27:14):
Like and so you give someone like a five dollars
and ten cents and if it's four bucks, and then
get the dollar back and.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Then they're like confused, Oh, I have a lot of
understanding of a lot And again your answers at Covino
and Rich.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
We throw it back every Thursday. It's right now.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
We're live from the tire rack dot Com studio, and
be sure to check out the YouTube channel. In fact,
our bonus podcast Over Promised, which starts about twenty minutes
that streams live on the YouTube channel. You could see
what we're doing, and a bunch of great clips from
not only our show, the whole network, Fox Sports Radio,
and and to sort of wrap that before we get
into the NBA, A lot of great feedback when we
go old school, Danny. I talked about it the other
(27:48):
day when we filled in for DP. My daughter went
with her friend for Hello Kiddy Night at Dodger Stadium. Yeah,
and she came home with a Dodger's hat, and I
was like sort of angry about this.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
I love those people that took her to the game.
Speaker 2 (27:59):
My mom, my wife, my wife was like, you do
call her mama once in a while, No, my wife doesn't.
My wife forgets sometimes and she'll call me dad and
daddy like in public.
Speaker 1 (28:09):
I'm like, you know, the kids aren't.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Here, Oh, because she's so used to referring like daddy. Yeah,
hey daddy, Yes, so my wife's big daddy. My wife
says this to me, and I looked at her like,
I'm like, we had a time machine?
Speaker 1 (28:25):
Was this nineteen ninety eight?
Speaker 2 (28:26):
She goes, should I send emmy to the game with
like some cash? Give her like forty bucks or twenty bucks.
I'm like, oh, just send her the game. I'll text
the parents if you want anything, will zell you or
venmo you or something. She's like, so give her no cash.
I'm like, babe, I don't even know if Dodger Stadium
takes cash. That's like, I mean, do you operate in
cash at a stadium even anymore? You tap your card,
(28:49):
you tap your phone.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
We live in a different world. Yeah, I don't know
how to blame your parents. She used to have to
pin five dollars onto our shirt for a field trip.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
Right now, we'll talk a little NBA before Dan Byer's update.
But some good games yesterday. Props to the Heat. Heat
over the Bulls, Mavericks over the Kings. Got to wait again?
What Friday? Right continues on Friday? Yeah, the final playing games.
But I think that the eyes are all on Saturday.
Speaker 1 (29:16):
And did you.
Speaker 2 (29:17):
See Anthony Edwards. He was He was pretty vocal, Danny
G saying, oh, he talks a lot. It goes like it. Listen,
I know that no one wants us to win, No
one wants the t Wolves to win, no one wants
us to advance.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
He's cool with that, and he's cool with it. And
you know, some.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
People like playing the role of spoilers underdog, but that's
that's a Saturday matchup. I think Saturday, the Western Conference,
to me, is so compelling. It's the matchups. You know,
when the NFC and the AFC playoff pictures are coming
together in football and you're like, oh, man, if this
team wins the tiebreaker, we get better matchups. I do
think by the Golden State Warriors losing that last game
(29:52):
and having to do the play in, I really do
think it gave us cooler matchups. I love Kawhi and
that Clippers team playing the Nuggets in the first round.
I like the te Wolves and Lakers playing, and I
sort of like the Warriors having to go to Houston,
which on paper is a better team, but playoff Jimmy
and Steph in the playoffs, like I think the matchups
(30:14):
are so good. Jimmy Butler's attitude. I mean again, he's
playoff Jimmy, so this is when he steps it up.
But I love that he gives Steph the credit he
deserves and that's why it works. He's like, I'll be
his robin to his batman all the time. Like it's
cool to see their camaraderie. In the respect he has
(30:35):
for Steph Curry, because they're gonna be tough to deal with.
They have such a chance with both of those guys
playing well. I think the Western Conference has has not
only unraveled and unfolded the way we want his fans,
but the NBA, as far as ratings go, honestly, the
fact that you got the Clippers who played great this year,
the fact that the Clippers are going to Denver, like
I said, t Wolves, Lakers, Warriors, Rockets, and then the
(31:00):
one throwaway series we'll probably get to see Oklahoma City
dominate round one against whoever.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
And about ad last night though, and Klay Thompson found
the Fountain of Youth three.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
You know what, Danny, you could argue that if a
d and Clay and that team gets it together. Oh
if Kyrie hadn't got hurt. Ad was in the zone.
Everything about him was in the zone. Body language, the
way he played.
Speaker 3 (31:21):
Yeah, we talked about attitude first time suiting up for
the MAVs. I mean it was only two and a
half quarters, but he was locked and loaded man, and
the way he played with Kyrie was pretty amazing. So
they would have definitely been a threat in the West
had Kyrie not gone down with that injury.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Well, the big story today is, you know, we started
off with Aaron Rodgers. There's two big stories in the news,
and that's Aaron Rodgers and as Dame Lillard. And he's
been cleared of the deep vein thrombosis in his right calf.
They announced that today, So he's practicing today. He's out
for the game on Saturday, but it looks like he'll
(31:57):
be ready moving forward after that, which is kind of cool.
Vain throw on Bosa sounds like something you get when
you see a good looking girl pass vain thrumb post
deep vain thrumbos man, take your eyes over her.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
I'm getting some vain throw boss.
Speaker 2 (32:12):
So that's talking about perfect timing, though, and when it
counts and when it matters that's big.
Speaker 1 (32:17):
Big news in the NBA. Well, for more updates, let's
go to our buddy, Dan Bayer. Dan. The Dame news
is pretty big for the Eastern Conference.
Speaker 9 (32:25):
Yeah, yeah, interesting because do you think that the Bucks
not that they're better without Damian Lillard. I think that
there's uh yes.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
Yes, and for the long run it'd be better to
have him. But they got to.
Speaker 9 (32:39):
Get past the Spacers series first. We'll see how it
works out. Is give you no said. It's Game one
on Saturday and it's the first game of the playoffs
to being off one o'clock Eastern time. Couple of other
notes from the NBA. Grisies guard John Murant game time
decision for tomorrow, and the Kings are hiring former nixt
