Gio debates drafting QB Jalen Milroe. He suggests drafting LB Abdul Carter for immediate impact, then Milroe later, emphasizing the Giants need wins and a QB plan for Daboll/Schoen to stay. Jerry prefers Sanders for his media handling skills and expects better Giants QB play than the Jets (despite no Jets QB draft talk). Before C-Lo's update, they discussed their guest bartending for the Boomer Esiason Foundation. C-Lo's update included the Knicks' physical loss to the Pistons, Masters day one, and Augusta's female members. The hour ended with the Browns signing Joe Flacco to their QB room with Kenny Pickett.
Hour 1 Today on Gio & Jerry (Boomer's out): Gio polled Jerry, Al, and Eddie for their Top 5 NY announcers. Before C-Lo's sports update (starting with his own Top 5), they discussed the Knicks' loss in Detroit (starters rested) and Wally Szczerbiak's post-game comments (featuring Al's "Boring" drops). C-Lo then covered the Masters' first day, including Gary Player's new girlfriend (he's 90) and amateur Jose Luis's creek incident. The hour ended with Gio noticing Jerry looking at Arizona real estate and a discussion about the time commitment of kids' athletics. Hour 2 Playoff Knicks opponents were discussed. The Mets and Yankees had recent afternoon games, making it feel like a long break. A caller questioned if the show is more relaxed without Boomer; Gio noted he sometimes avoids topics Boomer dislikes. They pondered how well the show members know each other (like a "Newlywed" game). C-Lo returned for his update, finding they don't know his kids' names. Kenny Albert reported on a Knicks-Pistons scuffle. At the Masters, Justin Thomas cursed after a bad shot, and Al questioned the free Masters app's extensive live coverage. The afternoon show went to the Islanders game where the Rangers scored 9 goals. The hour ended with Gio saying he'd be golfer Ludvig Aberg if he could wake up as any athlete. Hour 3 Gio debates drafting QB Jalen Milroe. He suggests drafting LB Abdul Carter for immediate impact, then Milroe later, emphasizing the Giants need wins and a QB plan for Daboll/Schoen to stay. Jerry prefers Sanders for his media handling skills and expects better Giants QB play than the Jets (despite no Jets QB draft talk).

Hour 4 Gio hosted a "Newlywed Game" between Al & Eddie to test their 17-year camaraderie. Before C-Lo's final update (following a discussion about the afternoon show requesting, not being invited to, the Islanders game), they recapped the Knicks' Detroit loss (featuring Kenny Albert's call) and Jim Nantz's story of acquiring Scottie Scheffler's old Yukon. A funny call to the Paul Feinbaum show involved a bowel movement discussion. The "Moment of the Day" questioned the show members' true knowledge of each other. The week ended with Gio receiving Barstool Golf merchandise (noting their high-stakes staff contests) and a discussion about Ted Knight's age in "Caddyshack" and his "Too Close For Comfort" role.

Boomer's son, Gunnar, joins us live from the golf course to talk about the history of the golf tournament benefiting the Boomer Esiason Foundation. We talked about IVF and the 5 BEF babies. Gunnar talked about playing golf with Brett Favre during the early years of the tournament. We also talked about his love of Aaron Rodgers (Gunnar is a Green Bay fan).

The Moment of The Day: Boomer has a story to tell but a perfectly timed Eddie drop of Al ruins Boomer's fun. In the final segment of the show, we have two 2-3 teams here locally but it feels like the Giants are in better shape. The Giants should also be getting Malik Nabers back for their Sunday night game against the Bengals. Both of these teams have to get to 3-3. Boomer is not sold on the Bills defense which is who the Jets will play on Monday night. We might get some DAVANTE ADAMS news this week. Kansas City is also looking for a WR but Boomer can't see the Raiders trading him to the Chiefs.
The Boomer Esiason Foundation is a life-changing organization. Its mission is to find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis. Chloe Norseth reports on a yearly commemoration of the organization's successes.
Hour 1 The Sixers organization is doing ‘loser things' according to Gio. They bought up over 2,000 tickets for tonight's game to hand out to fans as they don't want Knicks fans taking over the building. Gio is still very confident in the Knicks tonight. He expects huge things from Jalen Brunson and said it will be a ‘Josh Hart game'. The NBA admitted they missed a travel call on Tyrese Maxey during his 4-point play. Gio wonders why the NBA does this. Boomer is feeling this is going to a game 7. Evan & Tiki are headed down to Philly to go to the game. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with Chris Russo having a hard time saying ‘hubalu'. Stephon Marbury was on Instagram talking up the Knicks. Jerry went around the NBA playoffs. Charles Barkley said the Lakers and Suns suck because of the players, not the coaches. The Mets game ended with a controversial out at home plate call. Alonso was out, but the catcher did block the plate. Carlos Mendoza was pissed. The Yankees beat the Orioles thanks to a HR by Oswaldo Cabrera. In the final segment of the hour, we should get news on the start date for Rangers/Hurricanes as soon as the Knicks series ends. Hour 2 Tonight the Knicks are in Philly and Gio is feeling this is going to be a big game for Josh Hart. He was ‘atrocious' in games 4 and 5, but Gio thinks he gets his groove back tonight. Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio of Evan & Tiki going to the game tonight in Philadelphia. We spent a lot of time talking about where they are sitting and how they are getting to and from. In the final segment of the hour, word is that Pete Hoffman broke up a fight at Citi Field last night. A caller said the last train out of Philly back to NY is just after midnight. Hour 3 Shaun Morash called in to talk about the Evan and Tiki Show going to the Knicks game tonight in Philadelphia. Jerry returns for an update and has audio from Gio being pumped to have the Vikings beat the Giants. He was wrong. He seems equally confident the Knicks are going to win tonight, so take that with a grain of salt as they say. Jerry went around the NBA playoffs last night. The Mets game ended on a controversial call at the plate last night. Pete Alonso was thrown out but there seemed to be catcher interference. Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco talked about players spending everything they earn. Sharpe also talked about having to pay quarterly taxes. Jason Kelce said his wife said he has a ‘chicken ass'. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer wonders if both teams will score over 100 tonight. Booms is thinking maybe a defensive battle. We looked at some of the player props for Knicks/Sixers. A caller really needs our Kentucky Derby longshot today. He can't wait until tomorrow. We also talked about inseminating horses. Hour 4 What are we supposed to do for the next 12 hours before the Knicks/Sixers game? Boomer loves the intensity the Knicks have played with all season. Gio predicts the Knicks 111-95. Boomer said he just touched the money. Gio is not worried at all. Gio is writing down predictions for tonight's game. Jerry Cahill from the Boomer Esiason Foundation calls in to talk about the Five Borough Bike Tour. Boomer is disappointed that his daughter Sidney is a little light on donations. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Knicks/Sixers tonight. Boomer said he wouldn't even be nervous if it went to a game 7. Gio said, ‘Mr. Mo Mentum just changed his address'. Jerry went around the NBA last night. Charles Barkley told other media members to do their job and critique the players, not just the coaches. The Mets game ended with a controversial call at the plate as Pete Alonso was thrown out. It looked like the Cubs catcher was blocking the plate, which is no longer allowed. The Moment of The Day involves inseminating horses. In the final segment of the show, Pete Hoffman supposedly broke up a fight at Citi Field last night. Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney had a boxing match a few weeks ago and Garcia won. Yesterday it was revealed he was doing PEDs. Pete Hoffman comes into the studio to tell us about breaking up the fight.

Zack Wheeler met the media after signing a huge extension with the Phillies. In the final segment of the hour, what will Jason Kelce do in his retirement?

A caller wonders what Boomer's motivation is to keep getting up early for radio and giving up weekends during football season.
Hour 1 Boomer is pumped this morning because his Rangers won their first game of the season. The Chiefs beat the Broncos last night but it wasn't a fun watch. Russell Wilson stinks and so does Sean Payton. Taylor Swift was there but the buzz is over. Nobody really cares anymore. Gio actually thinks they are going to get married. Boomer wonders if Russell Wilson will be a Hall of Famer now that he's been terrible these past 2 seasons. Jerry is here for his first update and starts with the Chiefs beating the Broncos. Russell Wilson threw for under 100 yards. Sean Payton is looking forward to seeing them again in a few weeks. George Kittle will probably get fined for his anti-cowboys shirt but he doesn't care. Breece Hall doesn't care that the Eagles are 5-0. Houston beat West Virginia last night with a hail mary. Nick Castellanos hit 2 more HRs last night as the Phillies beat the Braves. He was kind of douchey to the media after the game. The Rangers won their first game of the season and Chris Kreider had 2 goals. The Devils won as well and Jack Hughes also had 2 goals. Pat McAfee called Andrew Marchand a rat for his article on Aaron Rodgers getting paid to go on the show. In the final segment of the hour, the best MLB teams have been knocked out. Does it have something to do with the layoffs the division winners have after the regular season? People wanted more teams in the playoffs, but now all of the best teams are out of it. The Texas Rangers are in the ALCS with Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer, and neither one did anything for them. Gio said there are so many examples of starting pitchers making huge money that don't pay off. There needs to be a market correction Hour 2 The Eagles come to MetLife Stadium on Sunday to play the Jets. Zach Wilson is going to be pressured all day. The Key to the game is the Jets offensive line beating the Eagles defensive line. If Zach has to throw from outside the pocket this game is going to be a disaster. The Eagles have a really good offensive and defensive line. Boomer said Zach has to be nuanced and poised in the pocket. Gio wondered what it would take for the Jets to trade for Kirk Cousins. Boomer said Zach is doing things on the field that are very troubling. Jerry returns for an update but first we talk about our digital guy Anthony Gallo going to Comic Con today. A caller to Sal & BT was eulogizing his grandmother, but he wouldn't stop, so Sal had to cut him off. The Phillies beat the Braves and Jerry has audio of Trea Turner's go ahead HR. The Chiefs beat the Broncos on TNF and Taylor Swift was there. The Rangers beat Buffalo 5-1 in game 1 of the NHL season. In the final segment of the hour, the show will be hanging out together today. Boomer, Gio & Jerry are playing golf, then Al & Eddie will join them at Garmany in Red Bank, NJ for a Boomer Esiason Foundation event. Gio was golfing yesterday and ran into 2 very attractive female golfers who were ‘lost'. Hour 3 Tickets were just released for the Boomer & Gio live show in Long Island. The tickets are all in carts right now so it will sell out soon. And since it will sell out, we can do something to Spike at the show since he lost a bet. He is vegan so we might make him eat steak. It is not looking like Daniel Jones is playing in Buffalo. He didn't practice again yesterday. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Chiefs beating the Broncos. Before the game, Steve Smith of the NFL Network had a verbal run in with Jerry Jeudy. The Phillies moved on to the NLCS after beat the Braves. Jerry plays audio of a Devils goal just to annoy Boomer. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer told us that Dolphins Head Coach Mike McDaniel grew up with comedian Dan Soder. We looked at the Dolphins' schedule for the next few weeks, starting with the 0-5 Panthers this week. Hour 4 We cannot believe the Giants are this bad again. And most people think they have no shot this weekend in Buffalo. After this week in Buffalo, the Giants have three games that they should be able to compete in. Annabelle calls to ask how the NY media was duped in the pre-season into thinking the Giants were going to be good. Jerry is here for his last update of the day and starts with the Chiefs beating the Broncos 19-8. Breece Hall talked about playing an undefeated team. Tyrod Taylor said he prepares the same whether he will start or backup Daniel Jones this weekend. The Phillies beat the Braves thanks to two more homeruns from Nick Castellanos. He had some odd exchanges with broadcasters after the game. The NY Rangers won their first game of the season. Chris Kreider scored 2 goals. And the Devils won thanks to 2 goals from Jack Hughes. The Moment of the Day involves WFAN running out of coffee and Anthony Gallo going to Comic Con instead of work. In the final segment of the hour, we do our NFL picks including the Giants and Jets.
The Eagles come to MetLife Stadium on Sunday to play the Jets. Zach Wilson is going to be pressured all day. The Key to the game is the Jets offensive line beating the Eagles defensive line.

We took a call from a Devils fan who is tired of living in the shadow of the Rangers. Hour 2: Boomer is taking out his anger by badmouthing the bridges in NJ. Callers defend NJ and the bridges and also want Gerard Gallant fired. This has turned into a NJ vs Long Island situation.

Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from last night's Devils game 7 win over the Rangers. Lindy Ruff talked about Akira Schmid's playoff performance. The Yankees ruined a great pitching performance by Domingo German. He was removed with a 2-0 lead in the ninth and the bullpen blew it. Aaron Boone talked about why he took German out of the game.

Boomer said 21 games is not a large enough sample size to evaluate Zach Wilson's future. Jerry starts with the Packers win over the Rams last night. ‘Aaron likes his balls very inflated,' said Peyton Manning. Rob Saleh is noncommittal on the QB situation.

Boomer thinks the Jets need to get to 10 wins to make the playoffs, so they need to win out. There is supposed to be terrible weather Thursday night. Jerry returns for his final update of the day but first we talk about Bob Gelb being a juggler. Bob comes in to talk about a juggling accident where he caught fire. He also juggles for us. Kodai Senga met the media and prepared a statement speaking in English. In the final segment of the show, the Vikings have signed Josh Rosen to the practice squad. Giants fans should be worried. Boomer can't believe Jets fans are already done with Zach Wilson. Mike White is a free agent at the end of the season. Will there be a team that will sign him for big money? He seems to be injury prone.

Liz and her family have benefited from the generosity of the Boomer Esiason Foundation, learning about treatments, the importance of athletics, and insights into the latest medical research. We start by Gunnar telling us about his personal journey and how cystic fibrosis has affected his family. We find out the story behind why Gunnar changed his mind about going to Law School after getting out of college, and he goes in depth about his own patient experience and why he's so excited about patient advocacy. We hear a story about a conversation Gunnar had with his doctor when he was very sick and only 22 years and what happened when he got a spot in the TRIKAFTA clinical trial program. We end with Gunnar sharing a conversation he found to be most difficult. He tells us about the amazing things he is doing with the Boomer Esiason Foundation and talks about their program supporting athletes with cystic fibrosis.
