The hour opens with another rough night for the Jets as Justin Fields struggles after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting Fields out there if they want to win and build a real culture. What exactly is the plan for the rest of the season, and how can it involve anything other than moving on at quarterback? Jerry Recco delivers his first update with the sounds of the Patriots beating the Jets, plus Willie Colon saying Fields is not an NFL quarterback. Shane Bowen weighs in on the firing of Brian Daboll while turning the page toward the Packers. Aaron Judge wins the A.L. MVP, Ohtani takes the N.L. version, and Scott Boras is already talking up Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. Boomer and Gio wrap the hour with a wild fact about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year Boomer started at WFAN, Gio's affection for the Spittin Chicklets crew, and a caller pushing the idea of an Alabama quarterback for the Jets.
Jerry kicks off his first update with the sounds of the Patriots beating the Jets, followed by Willie Colon declaring that Justin Fields simply isn't an NFL quarterback. Shane Bowen reacts to Brian Daboll's firing and looks ahead to the Packers. Aaron Judge takes home the A.L. MVP, Ohtani grabs the N.L. version, and Scott Boras is already selling the world on Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. Boomer and Gio then marvel at Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year Boomer started at WFAN.
The Jets lost again last night, and Boomer & Gio break down why they simply cannot keep putting Justin Fields on the field. After a sharp opening touchdown drive, Fields unraveled and so did the offense and the guys explain how that kills any hope of winning games or building a real culture. Boomer details what he's seeing on tape, Gio vents about the mixed messages coming from inside the building, and the guys try to answer the big question: What exactly are the Jets trying to accomplish the rest of this season?
Boomer and Gio debate the Giants' next move on the sideline as the search begins in earnest. Do they lean on experience and stability with a proven veteran, or roll the dice again on an up-and-coming coordinator? The guys break down what ownership wants, how the locker room factors in, and why the right personality matters as much as the résumé.
The Patriots push their streak to eight straight over the Jets, and Drake Maye looks completely in command. Boomer and Gio compare that stability to what the Giants need with Jaxson Dart and why pairing him with the right head coach is everything. Gio also makes it clear the Jets should stop running Justin Fields out there and turn to Tyrod Taylor if they want any shot at functioning on offense the rest of the season.
Gio explains how he suddenly fell down a rabbit hole reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. From ship logs to documentaries to late night deep dives, he breaks down why this historic tragedy has become his latest fascination and jokes that this is exactly what happens to men as they get older. Boomer reacts as Gio details how he got hooked and why it's now dominating his free time.
The hour starts with Boomer mentioning an alert on his phone about flash floods in California and admitting he loved the Patriots uniforms last night, calling them fresh. Gio explains that he has been reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and insists this is what happens to men as they get older. He also talks about trying to get into big streaming shows but struggling whenever real actors show up instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry Recco returns with more sounds from another Patriots win over the Jets, their eighth straight in the matchup. We also hear from Brock Purdy as he prepares to return for the Niners, plus reaction to Aaron Judge winning the A. L. MVP. The hour wraps with Gio discussing two apologies he thought were totally unnecessary. Amon Ra St. Brown apologized if he offended anyone with the Trump dance, and Scott Van Pelt apologized for calling Russell Wilson Mr. Limited. The phones open up for a batch of fun, random calls.
Boomer and Gio dive deeper into the Giants coaching search. Will ownership lean on a proven veteran or roll the dice on another coordinator? Gio sees a path either way and compares the situation to how the Patriots set things up for Drake Maye. Mike Tomlin's name has surfaced, but landing him would require a trade. One caller jumps in to tell Boomer he has been praising the Patriots a little too much. Jerry Recco returns with another update featuring the sounds of another Jets loss and another underwhelming outing from Justin Fields. Dexter Lawrence is asked whether he feels any responsibility for Brian Daboll's firing. A caller to Chris Russo tosses out a head coaching suggestion, and the guys revisit Mike Francesa insisting the Yankees were lucky not to get Ohtani. Aaron Judge reacts to winning the A.L. MVP, and Boomer and Gio talk about Barstool's Internet Invitational golf tournament. The hour closes with Gio trying to climb out of an 0-5 hole after a brutal week of picks and struggling to decide where to go next.
The hour opens with the Patriots extending their run to eight straight wins over the Jets as Drake Maye continues to look fully in command. Boomer and Gio compare that stability to what the Giants must find for Jaxson Dart with their next head coach. Gio also makes it clear the Jets can't justify sending Justin Fields back out there and believes Tyrod Taylor must take over immediately. Jerry Recco delivers his final update of the day with the sounds from another Jets loss, including Justin Fields' uneven night and Aaron Glenn's defense of his performance. Shane Bowen discusses his role in Brian Daboll's firing, while Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani take home MVP honors. Scott Boras is already promoting Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. The Moment of the Day features Chris Russo getting hit with a prank call. The week wraps with Boomer and Gio making their NFL picks for week eleven.
Boomer and Gio close out the week by locking in their Week 11 NFL picks. Gio tries to rebound after a brutal stretch, Boomer looks for separation, and the guys run through the matchups with their usual mix of instincts, arguments, gut feelings, and chaos.
A packed Friday show begins with the Jets sinking even deeper as Justin Fields struggles again after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting him out there and what exactly the Jets are trying to accomplish the rest of the season. Jerry Recco's first update features the sounds of another Patriots win, Willie Colon declaring Fields is not an NFL quarterback, and reaction from Shane Bowen as he prepares for the Packers. Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani sweep the MVP awards, Scott Boras starts hyping Cody Bellinger, and Boomer laughs about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year he started at WFAN. Hour two shifts to the Giants' head coaching search. Will they go with an experienced veteran or gamble on another coordinator. Gio sees both paths as possible and compares the situation to how the Patriots built around Drake Maye. Mike Tomlin's name surfaces, but acquiring him would take a trade. Jerry returns with more Jets misery, Dexter Lawrence reacts to Brian Daboll's firing, Mike Francesa's old Ohtani take resurfaces, and the guys talk about Barstool's Internet Invitational. Gio then wrestles with his Week 11 picks after going 0 for 5. Hour three features Boomer getting an alert about California flash floods and praising the Patriots' uniforms. Gio reveals his new obsession with the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and jokes that this is what aging men do. He also admits he struggles with scripted streaming shows if there are actors instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry brings more Patriots Jets audio as Brock Purdy prepares to return for San Francisco. The hour ends with Gio reacting to two unnecessary apologies and a batch of fun calls. Hour four opens with the Patriots winning their eighth straight over the Jets as Drake Maye looks fully in command. The discussion turns to what the Giants need in their next head coach for Jaxson Dart and why the Jets must turn to Tyrod Taylor. Jerry's final update of the day features Justin Fields' uneven performance, Shane Bowen's comments on Daboll's firing, and Judge and Ohtani's MVP celebrations. Scott Boras pumps up Cody Bellinger, the Moment of the Day features a Chris Russo prank call, and the week wraps with Boomer and Gio's NFL picks for Week eleven.

Boomer & Gio react to growing speculation around Matt LaFleur's job security in Green Bay. If the Packers decide to move on, Boomer makes it clear—he'd take LaFleur in a heartbeat. The guys break down his track record, why he'd fit, and what it would mean for the Giants' coaching landscape.
Hour 4 opens with stunned callers reacting to the Jets defense having just one takeaway and zero interceptions through nine games. The conversation shifts to whether Mike Kafka could realistically keep the Giants' head coaching job, and who's more likely to deliver tonight Justin Fields or Jameis Winston. With Garrett Wilson unlikely to play, the guys wait for clarity from Rich Cimini. Jerry Recco's final update includes Stefon Diggs hyping up the Bills' nor'easter uniforms, Brian Burns on whether he let Brian Daboll down, Russell Wilson continuing to say all the right things, and AJ Brown addressing his “drop me in fantasy” comments. The Knicks fall to the Magic at MSG, and Jalen Brunson leaves in a walking boot. The Moment of the Day spotlights the throwback Giants–Packers promo calling the matchup an OG “meet & beat.” To close the show, Gio predicts the Jets get crushed tonight and admits he's rooting for it while Boomer reminds everyone that Thursday night games tend to stay close thanks to the short week.
Hour 3 opens with Boomer diving into Netflix history docs on James Garfield, which quickly sends Gio into a wild pivot on the BTK killer. From there, attention turns to Jets–Patriots tonight, where Justin Fields is expected to start despite some brutal performances this season. The guys question whether Fields has any future here and discuss the Giants turning to Jameis Winston while Joe Schoen's job status hangs in the balance. Jerry Recco returns with an update featuring Drake Maye ahead of Jets/Pats, more from interim Giants coach Mike Kafka, and Russell Wilson reflecting on close losses under Brian Daboll. Matt LaFleur is asked if he's coaching for his job, Terry Bradshaw questions whether Tom Brady is truly the best, and the Knicks' home streak ends with a loss to the Magic. The crew also debates whether Jerry would move to Memphis for an NBA play-by-play job. The hour closes with Gio needing to stay in NYC for a Dunkin' event, and a caller asking why the Giants' defense looks exhausted late in games.
A loaded Thursday on Boomer & Gio. Hour 1 opens with a tribute to beloved New York hockey writer Larry Brooks, followed by a heated debate on Aaron Glenn's attitude toward the media. Jerry Recco's update includes Mike Kafka's first comments as interim head coach, Brian Burns on whether he let Brian Daboll down, and Jameis Winston fired up to start in “the greatest city in the world.” The guys also hit Russell Wilson's demotion reaction, AJ Brown telling fantasy owners to drop him, the Knicks' loss at MSG, and Scott Boras' alliterative pitch for Pete Alonso. They close the hour with the station's old-school “meet & beat” Giants/Packers promo. Hour 2 breaks down the Disney vs YouTubeTV standoff on earnings day, Gio admitting he watches regular YouTube more than anything else, and more from Mike Kafka, who says he remains tight with Brian Daboll. The crew reacts to Michael Penix Jr. revealing he doesn't have many teammates to lean on during tough days, plus more Knicks reaction and a note that Drew Brees will be on the call for Packers/Giants. Hour 3 starts with Boomer referencing Netflix's James Garfield content before Gio veers into a BTK documentary.

Drew Wendt of Do You Like Apples? has one word to say to Josh and Andrew, just one word: Garfunkel.This week, Drew seduces our hosts into talking about Mike Nichols' New Hollywood classic The Graduate, a film that appears to defy its reputation as an iconic Boomer comedy. Getting into the nitty gritty of all the power dynamics, WASP-y suburbia, youthful aimlessness, grey morality, and just how catchy "The Sound of Silence" is, the trio dive deep into a movie that leaves them coming away with new thoughts after every rewatch. Then, they have One More Thing, with the 1980 Roeg psychodrama Bad Timing, (starring Art Garfunkel as himself but if he went into psychology) and Anthony Mann's police procedural noir (and documentary?) T-Men.Expect no episode next week as Josh and Andrew will be attending SLIFF, but they'll be back in time for Max Havey's lesson on the film that made the STL Magazine writer fall in love with movies, Wes Anderson's Rushmore! In two weeks, make sure to listen in on this crash course in one of Anderson's early works.Until then, read on at thetake-up.com and follow us @thetakeupstl on Instagram, Twitter, Letterboxd, and Facebook. Special thanks to Social Media Manager Kayla McCulloch and Contributor Ethan Tarantella. Theme music by AMP.
Boomer and Gio close out the show with laughs and fireworks. The WFAN Golf Invitational idea takes over the studio as listeners imagine Gio and Mike Francesa teaming up on the course — though Gio insists there's “zero chance” Francesa would ever agree to play. The phones light up again with more reaction to Brian Daboll's firing, including a furious caller calling Joe Schoen a “back-stabbing s.o.b.” Al Dukes fills in for Jerry on the final update and delivers the Moment of the Day, featuring the viral golf debate. The guys also touch on YouTubeTV's messy rebate offer and a rumor linking Daboll to Penn State — but the day belongs to the fantasy of a WFAN Golf Showdown.
Boomer and Gio light up the airwaves with a mix of chaos, comedy, and controversy. They kick off reacting to Ian O'Connor's bombshell that Joe Schoen might not be safe as Giants GM, then pivot to the Mavericks firing Nico Harrison after his Luka Doncic fallout. Jerry calls Aaron Glenn a “tool” for his media meltdown, sparking a heated debate about combative coaches and frustrated reporters. In Hour 2, Gio doubles down on Glenn's behavior saying you can't pick fights with the media when you're losing and the guys talk Bill Belichick's fall from legend to unwanted while breaking news drops: Jameis Winston is expected to start for the Giants. They also check out the Patriots' new “nor'easter” uniforms and debate Antonio Pierce as a fiery fit for the Giants. Hour 3 turns Hollywood as Boomer recounts sitting next to Michael Kay and Adam Schefter at the Landman premiere with Demi Moore stealing the spotlight. Then comes the call that takes over the day: a WFAN Golf Invitational featuring Mike Francesa in Boomer and Gio's foursome. Hour 4 wraps with more Giants fan fury one caller calling Joe Schoen a “back-stabbing s.o.b.” plus Al Dukes filling in for Jerry with the Moment of the Day: the now-legendary WFAN Golf Invitational debate. Gio ends the show with a mic drop: “There's zero chance Francesa says yes.”
Boomer and Gio start the show reacting to Ian O'Connor's report that Joe Schoen might not be guaranteed to return as Giants GM next season. They also dive into the Mavericks' decision to fire GM Nico Harrison after the Luka Doncic fallout. Jerry opens his first update by calling Jets Head Coach Aaron Glenn a “tool” for stonewalling the media over injury questions, and shares Knicks highlights as they stay perfect at MSG. The hour wraps with debate over Bill Belichick's fading reputation and Gio pointing out that Mike Kafka not Brian Daboll was the one calling the plays that have Jaxson Dart running wild.
Boomer and Gio kick off the hour blasting Aaron Glenn for going after reporters Gio says you can't act like that unless you're winning, and warns that the media will turn on him fast. The guys also get into how beat reporters and opinion columnists are blurring together in today's NFL coverage. They pivot to Fernando Mendoza's NFL potential before Jerry's update brings more fireworks: Glenn's media meltdown, Bill Belichick saying he's “on to Wake Forest,” and Mike Valenti torching Gus Johnson on Detroit radio. The Knicks keep rolling at MSG, Jim Rome reacts to the Mavs firing Nico Harrison, and big news breaks Jameis Winston is set to start Sunday against the Packers. Plus, the Patriots unveil their icy new “nor'easter” uniforms, and a caller makes his pitch for Antonio Pierce as the next Giants head coach.
Boomer and Gio kick off the hour with Boomer's star-studded night at the Landman premiere sitting next to Michael Kay, chatting with Adam Schefter, and spotting Demi Moore looking stunning on the red carpet. The guys then have fun with a caller's idea for a WFAN Golf Invitational featuring Mike Francesa in their foursome. Jerry's update brings the breaking news that Jameis Winston will start for the Giants this weekend, plus Mike Vrabel on facing the Jets, and Jerry Jones praising Quinnen Williams. The Knicks stay perfect at MSG after beating the Grizzlies, and a caller ends the hour roasting Aaron Glenn with a hilarious case of “short man syndrome.”
Boomer and Gio take a fiery call from a fan who unloads on Giants GM Joe Schoen, calling him a “back-stabbing s.o.b.” after the team's front-office drama. The guys debate whether Schoen really turned on Brian Daboll or if fans are just looking for someone to blame. Gio says the perception of Schoen has completely flipped, while Boomer wonders if ownership is quietly losing faith too.
Boomer and Gio react to Mike Vrabel's comments ahead of tomorrow night's matchup with the struggling Jets. Boomer says Vrabel's confidence is justified, while Gio wonders if the Jets can even make it competitive. They break down how New York's offense might survive against Vrabel's defense and why this could be another long, ugly night for Gang Green.
Boomer and Gio crack up over a caller's idea for a WFAN Golf Invitational, imagining a foursome featuring themselves and the legendary Mike Francesa. The guys debate who would actually carry the team, how Francesa would handle missed putts, and which other FAN personalities could join the field. Boomer insists it would be chaos. Gio says it would be radio gold.
Boomer and Gio react to reports that Jameis Winston will start Sunday against the Packers, and debate what kind of spark or chaos he could bring to the offense. Then they check out the Patriots' new “nor'easter” uniforms debuting on Thursday night, with Gio wondering if New England is trying a little too hard to stay relevant. The hour wraps with a passionate caller making his case for Antonio Pierce as the next Giants head coach and Boomer and Gio weigh whether the fiery former linebacker could be the right fit for Big Blue's rebuild.
Boomer and Gio imagine a wild NFL reality — Bill Belichick, once the dream hire for Giants fans, is now available and nobody in New York wants him. Gio says it's crazy how fast the perception has flipped, from legendary savior to untouchable coach. The guys debate whether Belichick's rigid style and lack of recent success have made him unhireable, and if the Giants would ever reconsider bringing him home — or if that ship has officially sailed.
Boomer and Gio dive into Aaron Glenn's latest clash with reporters, calling out the Jets defensive coordinator for being combative and defensive despite his team's struggles. Gio says you can't bark at the media when you're not winning, and warns that reporters will start rooting against you. The guys talk about how Glenn's behavior has crossed the line from confident to confrontational, and how the tension between coaches and beat writers is boiling over in New York.
Boomer and Gio crack up as Jerry goes off on Jets defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, calling him a “tool” for refusing to answer injury questions from reporters. Glenn's short-fused exchange with the media sets Gio off — he says you can't act like that when your team isn't winning. The crew debates how much tension is fair between coaches and beat reporters, and whether Glenn's attitude is wearing thin inside the Jets' building.
Boomer and Gio react to Ian O'Connor's report that Joe Schoen's job as Giants GM isn't safe beyond this season, raising questions about ownership's trust and the team's direction after firing Brian Daboll. The guys debate how Schoen could go from “rebuilding hero” to “on the hot seat” so quickly. Then they pivot to the NBA, where the Mavericks fired GM Nico Harrison after his handling of Luka Doncic backfired. Boomer and Gio wonder if this could be a cautionary tale for the Giants — when star players and front offices clash, someone always pays the price.
It's been awhile but we have a SS Live podcast. Great folks coming through and great participation. Let's get into it.
Here's the latest Not A Podcast. A compilation of the days TTs. Let's get into it.
Boomer & Gio react to the Giants being featured on Hard Knocks: In Season alongside the rest of the NFC East. Gio says it's perfect timing after Brian Daboll's firing pure chaos for the cameras while Boomer wonders how much access we'll really get inside the building. From Jaxson Dart's rise to front-office tension, it's must-see drama at MetLife.
Boomer & Gio react to the Giants being featured on Hard Knocks: In Season with the NFC East and the timing couldn't be juicier. Gio jokes that it's reality TV gold after Daboll's firing, while Boomer wonders if Jon Gruden could actually return to coach Jaxson Dart. Plus, Chris Simms defends Mike McDaniel, Zac Taylor's job could be in danger, and Michelle Beadle unloads on Stephen A. Smith in a fiery media feud.
Gio can't understand why Joe Schoen survives after he and Brian Daboll “failed on an epic level.” Boomer and Gio break down Schoen's shaky draft record, the rumors that Jaxson Dart was a Daboll guy, and whether keeping Schoen makes any sense. Jerry's update features Tiki Barber's thoughts on the Daboll firing saying the culture in the building did change — plus highlights from Eagles-Packers and the Rangers' rare home win. In the final segment, the guys debate whether Mike Kafka deserves his shot to lead the Giants for the rest of the season.
Boomer & Gio dive into the Giants' stunning decision to part ways with Brian Daboll while keeping GM Joe Schoen. Gio calls it a baffling move after both men failed together, while Boomer questions what ownership really sees in Schoen. The guys debate how this impacts Jaxson Dart's development, who's to blame for the collapse, and whether the Giants just created even more confusion at the top.
Boomer & Gio wonder how Daniel Jones really feels about Brian Daboll's firing. Gio thinks Jones might be quietly celebrating after a rocky relationship with his now-former head coach. Boomer weighs in on what this means for Jones' future with Jaxson Dart taking over. Plus, Jerry Recco's update features Daboll reaction, Eagles-Packers highlights, and the Rangers finally winning at home.
