Podcast appearances and mentions of al dukes

Gio and Jerry lead off previewing the Beach Bash, debating preseason QBs, and dissecting sad songs, before diving into Boomer's thunderstorm golf panic, the Good Good Golf downfall, and dream sports GM jobs. The show then tackles Al Dukes' mystery lake animal, Aaron Judge's refusal to play rehab games, Keith Hernandez's cash-eating dog, and a wild fight at Barstool HQ. C-Lo's updates weave through continuous Yankees losses, George Lombard Jr.'s six-game error streak, Steve Torre's new radio role, and Rex Ryan visiting Jets camp, wrapping up with Jerry and Al's low SAT scores as Jerry takes off for the Salt Shack.

The hour kicks off with an update on the dead animal Al Dukes found in a Bradley Beach lake, before C-Lo returns with an update featuring a Montana caller's advice on dealing with bears. Plus, Aaron Judge wants to skip rehab games and return straight to the team, Keith Hernandez's dog ate two $100 bills, John Harbaugh praises New Jersey pizza, and George Lombard Jr. commits an error in his sixth straight game. Finally, the guys take calls on bears and driving Jed York around.

We break down the federal investigation into Dodgers owner Mark Walter and Shohei Ohtani's opt-out clause. C-Lo returns with the Orioles broadcast of Pete Alonso's controversial foul ball, Lombard's game-winning RBI, and Carson Benge's HR powering a Mets win as Kodai Senga settles into his new closer role.

Al Dukes really likes Cam Ward now after watching Quarterback on Netflix. Also, Boomer told stories about his own rookie season and how terrible he was.

Boomer and Gio dive into their favorite things about Fire Island multiple callers that Al usually blocks get on the air. Is it better to work in the morning or the afternoon? Jerry's update starts with talking about Anthony Volpe finally coming through in a big spot. The guys debate whether or not rivalries in golf are good for the sport. Gio gives a review of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.

Al Dukes being on vacation allows some callers to sneak onto the airwaves that he would've blocked. This drifted into a conversation about swanky parts of Long Island.

C-Lo returns for his final update of the day and starts with a live Rico Brogna that's ‘a little glitchy right now'. Pat Riley and the Heat introduced Giannis yesterday. We quizzed AL to see how many Miami Heat players he could name from their history. Joe Flacco talked about his trophies and how he thought he would care about them but he doesn't. The Moment of The Day: All the construction noise in the studio.

Sophie Cunningham has a few inches on Al Dukes

We hear Jerry Blevins' fake PSA for Luke Weaver to get to the All Star Game. We heard Mike Francesa back when the Mets made Phil Regan the pitching coach at 82 (he passed away so we played it). The Moment of The Day: Maybe AL should have a baby.

We talked about the baseball lockout that is coming next season. Al is rooting for a lockout and Boomer wonders why.

Jerry's final update of the day starts with Jalen Brunson thanking the fans at the parade. Plus, an Al Dukes anatomy lesson and Moment of The Day: The Blow Pig nickname for a golfer.

Gio wants Jaxson Dart and Abdul Carter in a practice ‘root hog' situation, but Boomer says John Harbaugh isn't doing that. Gio expects no more big moves for the Jets or Giants, everyone still anticipates an AJ Brown trade to the Patriots, and Gio breaks down why JJ McCarthy 'prances' and will be a terrible QB before sharing Jalen Brunson's crush on Mariska Hargitay. Jerry's update highlights Saquon Barkley on AJ Brown, Jim Harbaugh on Justin Herbert missing practice for his girlfriend, and Kendrick Perkins on a heated AAU game argument. Finally, Aaron Judge throws a dude out at the plate in a Yankees shutout, Carson Benge hits two RBI singles in a Mets win, the Pope gives a thumbs up to a Knicks fan, and Al Dukes plays a disastrous round of ‘NBA player on the Spurs/Thunder or dead guy.'

We kick off wondering what crowd reaction President Trump will get at the Knicks game, note a shoeless Jerry, and track Yankees and Mets wins before a Trump impersonator calls in. Next, Gio wonders if Juan Soto cares his team stinks, the guys get sidetracked by weiner pills, and SGA sends a cease-and-desist letter to Underdog Sports over flopping videos. Then, Gio and Boomer debate a "root hog" practice drill, Gio explains why JJ McCarthy will be a terrible quarterback, and Al Dukes plays a disastrous game of "NBA player or dead guy." Finally, reports drop about Jaxson Dart addressing his team after introducing Trump, Gerrit Cole and Juan Soto dominate again, Boomer pins Al against the studio wall, and a police officer pulls over a woman for holding a phone in a right hand she doesn't even have.

Boomer believes that this current Knicks team has the potential to be the greatest ever. Also, there's controversy after the guys go to dinner

A caller from Boston asks the question. We eventually settle on the notion of Al Dukes being his communities neighborhood watchman.

We debate whether the Celtics or Sixers are the ideal Knicks matchup and Al's role as the Bradley Beach "neighborhood watch." Jerry's got Mike Breen's call of the Knicks' blowout, Mike Brown's praise for player detail, and a full NBA playoff wrap-up. After another Mets loss to the Nationals and a "Moment of the Day" featuring Shaq and Gio out of context, we wonder if Phil Simms was accidentally booked for a golf tour instead of Boomer. We wrap with a look ahead to this Sunday's Five Borough Bike Tour.

Craig and Big Mac react to James Cook graduating from the University of Georgia and the viral senior thesis he wrote about feral hogs. They also share stories about their own academic shortcuts and address a caller's decade-long frustration with producer Al Dukes. 01:57 - James Cook's Thesis 06:11 - Craig's Syracuse Paper 08:11 - Charity Softball Discussion 15:10 - Al Dukes Grudge 20:23 - Dickey-Doo Joke Call

We talked about Troy Aikman's signature looking nothing like ‘Troy' or ‘Aikman', since at Boomer's charity event, there was an autographed Aikman jersey. Al Dukes donated that night but his name didn't go up on the big screen so he didn't think he got credit. Sad.

Al Dukes once wondered if Notre Dame would have to change their name because ‘Fighting Irish' could be offensive. We also talked about leprechauns. Happy St. Patrick's Day.

Boomer and Jerry discuss the Jets' trade for Geno Smith, acknowledging Frank Reich's upcoming plan and the possibility of adding Carson Wentz. C-Lo's update features Aaron Judge's defensive highlights and a heated exchange between Tommy Lugauer and an annoyed caller. After covering the Knicks' comeback victory over the Warriors, the show features a frustrated Minnesota weatherman who reminds Jerry of Al Dukes, Gio's travel woes in Florida and Boomer's late-night return home.

Since it can't all be serious, a caller wants to get Gio's high school band, Jalapeno Dream, back together. Gio is going on a golf trip after the show today and he said the airport beer is one of the best. Gio talked about how good of a time Al is when he has some drinks.

We talked about Al yelling in the Warm Up Show about people equating the US Men's hockey team with President Trump.

Boomer opens the hour by reading fan mail on air. We take a nostalgic look back at the legendary Club Bene in Sayreville and the famous acts that performed there. The guys address Al's recent outburst regarding the political associations surrounding the U.S. Men's hockey team. To wrap up the hour, they discuss a gross incident on the Garden State Parkway and the end of Jerry's tenure as a Little League coach, including his unpublished book on the experience.

C-Lo got clips from the Dan Le Batard Show where they played clips of Al talking about their show producer. Evan Roberts relayed a Valentine's Day during the great Jeremy Lin Knicks run. Plus, the 49'ers will play a game in Australia and Mexico City this year.

It starts with an airport shutdown in El Paso, Texas that somehow gets blamed on a party balloon and instantly spirals into aliens, cartels, spy balloons, and a full blown trust crisis. The guys break down why none of these official explanations ever feel believable anymore, especially after the Chinese spy balloon saga and the mysterious drone sightings in New Jersey. From there, the conversation takes a sharp and hilarious turn into social media paranoia, targeted ads that feel way too specific, and whether our phones are definitely listening to us. That leads to an unexpected deep dive into refrigerators, how we are apparently using them wrong, and a preview of Al Dukes showing off the inside of his fridge. The segment also detours into sports culture with a great origin story of the Chiefs' shredder hats, legendary fan traditions, and a nostalgic conversation about Bob Sheppard, his iconic voice, and why his legacy still looms large in New York sports. Add in stories involving Tiki Barber, Giants memories, and classic radio tangents, and you get a perfectly chaotic hour that somehow connects aliens, appliances, and the greatest PA announcer of all time.

We explore the contradiction of championship teams winning despite locker room friction, highlighted by a Mike Mayock clip about Antonio Brown. Jerry's reminds us of an infamous Olympic groin injury before some sounds from the Seahawks' Super Bowl parade and Jazz Chisholm's MVP aspirations. The hour wraps with Boomer's plea for the return of classic NFL coaching sweaters and a surprise delivery of a custom wrestling belt for Al Dukes.

On this segment of Evan & Tiki, the guys dive into the latest reports from Adam Schefter regarding potential NFL rule changes. Evan and Tiki debate the pros and cons of allowing teams to trade draft picks up to five years in advance and whether the league should finally replace the onside kick with a 4th-and-13 play from the 25-yard line. Then, the show goes off the rails when a caller claims Patriots QB Drake Maye is already "leaps and bounds" better than Eli Manning after just two seasons. Evan loses his cool, defending Eli's clutch legacy against what he calls "stat-padding" from the Patriots' young star. Also in this hour: St. John's Expectations: With the Johnnies sitting at 19-5, is it "Elite Eight or Bust" for Rick Pitino? Posting and Toasting: The crew plays their favorite tweet game, featuring debates on parallel parking skills and Al Dukes' bizarre requirements for watching Olympic swimming. The Return of Adam Gase: Reaction to the news that the former Jets head coach is back in the league working with Justin Herbert—and why the framing of his resume drove Evan crazy.

Giants and Jets are both still looking for an offensive coordinator. Gio's afraid something happened with the Jets negotiations with Frank Reich. Eddie played a bunch of clips of Al yelling at callers from over the years. C-Lo returns for his final update of the day including a Moment of The Day: Shaun Morash's special request for his driver. Plus, why is Al Dukes' name showing up in the Epstein files?

We are stunned as well.

No one said anything about Jon Gruden being asked about a job, but it's 100% fact that Aaron Glenn and Jon Gruden were on the phone together. Al Dukes and Boomer Esiason call in to wish Craig a very happy 35th birthday. News broke from the New York Times and the Athletic of 3 million emails. Some of which had Steve Tisch and Jeffery Epstein going back and forth. What will happen next to the co-owner of the Giants? C-Mac does his best to suck up to Craig with a nice birthday gift bag.

Al Dukes and Boomer Esiason call in to wish Craig a very happy 35th birthday.

Hour 2 dives deeper into the John Harbaugh sweepstakes and asks the real question: who actually threatens the Giants most. The crew runs a “Pick 3” ranking of the top teams that could lure Harbaugh away, weighing roster appeal, quarterback situations, draft capital, cap space, and the one factor they keep coming back to: ownership stability. Atlanta's reputation and leadership get a hard look, Cleveland is framed as the storm you monitor but do not fear, and Tennessee jumps into the conversation as a sneaky powerhouse threat with a young QB, a high pick, major cap room, and an intriguing roster base. Then it gets personal as Logan Ryan takes shots at Joe Shane, and the guys debate how much to trust criticism that might come from a bad breakup. Plus, a fun detour into what a “lunch meeting at Harbaugh's house” should actually look like, a caller claims Tom Coughlin may have made a key outreach, and the hour spirals into Posted and Toasted, Al Dukes going viral over “F the Packers,” and a bigger argument about class, rivalries, and why fans love hearing their coach talk like a fan.

A brand-new Posted and Toasted kicks off with a rapid-fire trip through old takes and wild questions, including “Who leaves the Chargers first, Justin Herbert or Jim Harbaugh?” and a flashback to harsh Harbaugh slander that did not exactly age well. Then the segment turns into a full-blown debate after Al Dukes posts a viral complaint about Ben Johnson's “F the Packers” moment. Tiki is genuinely annoyed, Evan defends rivalry heat, and the guys argue whether fans actually want more personality from coaches or more “class.” It gets even better when the show plays Ben Johnson's response and he basically refuses to apologize, leaning into the rivalry. Add in a side quest about “skinny fat,” the YouTube chat judging Evan's belly, and the whole thing becomes classic chaos.

Former Ron and Fez producer Al Dukes joins us to discuss his experience on the show as well as interactions with Opie & Anthony.

Al Dukes steps in for the final update and delivers a hilarious Moment of the Day featuring the idea of a WFAN Golf Invitational with Gio teeing off alongside Mike Francesa. The crew cracks up imagining Francesa's reactions on the course, and in the final segment, they debate whether it could ever actually happen. Gio shuts it down fast saying there's “zero chance” Francesa would ever agree to play.

The WFAN King of parody music gives his review of The NFC Easty Boys

The Mets took 2-of-3 in Detroit but left with a bad taste in their mouth with another bad bullpen performance by Helsley. This is what happens when starting pitching can't go five innings. They may ask Kodai Senga to go to the minors for a few starts but he would have to approve that. We also talked more about what type of Long Island crowd we're going to get at the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black. A guy calls in who has a business where he collects golf balls at Bethpage at night. Jerry returns for an update, but first he wonders how the volleyball girls on TV right now can afford to get to Bangkok. Jerry Jones was on Good Morning America talking about being a great salesman.
