Boomer and Gio wonder if Aaron Glenn's job is tied to how Geno performs this season, and The Carton Show reacts to Plaxico Burress comparing playing for the Jets to being in prison.

The guys dive into household TV habits, Macho Man nostalgia, Jerry's 2 a.m. alarm songs, and callers getting arrested for unpaid parking tickets. Packed with C-Lo updates spanning baseball highlights, an X crypto scam, and wild NFL soundbites from Baker Mayfield and Jeremy Shockey, the show wraps with a look back at Gio's bad mustache and his weekend playing bass with Jimmy & The Parrots.

Boomer is out, so Gio and Jerry kick off with the MLB trade deadline and how a Dodgers move for Tarik Skubal could spark a lockout. C-Lo steps in with updates on Jazz Chisholm's rundown and cramps, plus Jasson Dominguez oversliding a triple. Next up, the Mets beat the Marlins, the guys reject Nolan McLean's mustache, and AJ Minter gets traded to the Twins. Finally, Rob Saleh is asked about Fireman Ed, Gio questions the Titans' coach, and fishy police secrecy surrounds the Kyle Shanahan accident.

The Jets are running a terrible backup plan behind Geno Smith, relying on fourth-round rookie Cade Klubnik, Bailey Zappe, and Brady Cook. C-Lo returns with updates on Cruz walking in the White Sox win in eleven, a pissed-off Aaron Boone, and Luis Robert Jr lifting the Mets past the Marlins. Plus, Mookie Wilson admits on the Carton show he didn't want to be up in big spots, and Gio claims Rami's day off to see Mumford & Sons was a total weather bust.

Gio breaks down his household TV habits—including secretly finishing Netflix's Toxic Love Story—before Jerry recalls Macho Man Slim Jim ads, Gio skips summer hot dogs, and compares wives to cadaver dogs. C-Lo returns with updates from Jets' Minkah Fitzpatrick, Aaron Glenn on Frank Reich, Malik Nabers, Vic Fangio pleading the fifth, Nick Sirianni hyping the Eagles, and Evan Roberts calling camera speeding tickets cheating. Finally, the hour wraps on an X scam using fake podcast votes to steal accounts and sell crypto.

We start with Jerry's 2 a.m. alarm songs, followed by what happens with unpaid parking tickets and callers who were actually arrested for them. C-Lo returns with updates on Baker Mayfield feeling disrespected by the Bucs, Jeremy Shockey telling Shannon Sharpe about getting a vasectomy as an NFL rookie, and Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald calling Hard Knocks a gift from the football gods. Finally, the Moment of the Day remembers Gio's bad mustache, and the week wraps with Gio talking about playing bass with Jimmy & The Parrots over the weekend.

James Dolan was on a conference call for his Sphere company and started talking Knicks for some reason. Also, a flashback to an awkward John Sterling moment. Plus, Moment of the Day featuring Gio's one-day mustache.

What happens if you have a bunch of unpaid parking tickets? We talked to a bunch of people that were arrested for unpaid tickets.

Minkah Fitzpatrick of the Jets on wanting the fans to be proud. Aaron Glenn said it's a luxury to have Frank Reich there. Malik Nabers said he has high standards for himself. Vic Fangio took the fifth like Dr. Fauci at the press conference. We heard Nick Sirianni trying to pump up the Eagles players. We heard Evan Roberts talking about getting speeding tickets, all from cameras, which he thinks is cheating.

A portion of this morning was spent discussing the "dirty soda" phenomenon, a call about a wife not thanking a husband for actually doing something, and Gio remarking about the ability of wives to notice changes in the home.

C-Lo's got the sounds of Cruz walking in a run to seal the White Sox win in eleven. Aaron Boone was pissed after the game about not scoring. Luis Robert Jr had the go ahead 2-run single as the Mets beat the Marlins. Mookie Wilson was on the Carton show and said he didn't want to be up in a big spot.

Rookie Cade Klubnik is the backup right now. He's a fourth round draft pick. Their other QBs right now are Bailey Zappe and Brady Cook. If Geno stinks or gets hurt, this is a big problem.

We've got C-Lo's first update that starts with Jazz Chisholm getting in a rundown. He also left with cramps. The Mets beat the Marlins and we talked about Nolan McLean's mustache, which we don't seem to like. The Mets traded AJ Minter to the Twins. Rob Saleh was asked if he talked about beating the Jets to Fireman Ed. Gio wonders why everyone thinks he's going to be a good coach with the Titans.

If the Dodgers get Tarik Skubal and win another World Series, this is going to help the chances of there being a lockout.
