Jones and Keefe react to Yankee's play by play announcer Michael Kay's latest insight into the Red Sox Yankees drama that took over the sports world this past weekend.
Jerry's final update starts with John Harbaugh's exchange with a reporter. Boomer wonders who's playing for the Jets on Friday and if Jaxson Dart will play. We heard from Todd Monken on deciding to go with Deshaun Watson. Dan Orlovsky is shocked and feels awful for the Browns fans. Michael Kay was on the Awful Announcing podcast and doesn't think he'll be alive in his 80's. The new owners of the Padres are very excited to win it all. The Moment of The Day: Shannon Sharpe reading the news & putting it in his own voice.
Inspired by the Penn State cocaine story, Gio asks Boomer where he'd set up a pop-up drug ring, sparking calls from listeners knowledgeable about drugs nationwide. Jerry's final update covers John Harbaugh's exchange with a reporter, Boomer wondering if Jaxson Dart plays for the Jets on Friday, and Todd Monken selecting Deshaun Watson at quarterback—leading Watson to address criticizing the fans and Dan Orlovsky to feel awful for Cleveland. Plus, Michael Kay doubts he'll live into his 80s on the Awful Announcing podcast, the new Padres owners hype winning it all, Shannon Sharpe delivers the Moment of the Day, and Wyndham Clark's dad accidentally touches his girlfriend's boob.
49ers owner Jed York gets arrested soliciting a prostitute outside an Ohio trailer park, leading off Jerry's first update on John Harbaugh expecting Malik Nabers ready for Week 1 alongside fake audio quotes from the hooker. Then, Todd Monken names Deshaun Watson the starter in Cleveland, Watson admits his emotions got the best of him, Michael Kay doubts he'll live into his 80s, and Cal Raleigh launches three home runs against the Phillies. Finally, an Uber Eats driver pummels a security guard at Barstool, leaving Gio to wonder who in the studio would run and who would step up to fight.
Jerry starts with John Harbaugh talking about Malik Nabers and saying it's ‘reasonable to assume' that he will be ready in week 1. Jerry had some fake audio quotes from the hooker in the Jed York story. We then heard from Todd Monken on naming Deshaun Watson the starter in Cleveland. Michael Kay was on the Awful Announcing podcast and said he doesn't think he'll be alive in his 80's. Cal Raleigh hit 3 home runs against the Phillies last night.
Ben Maller talks about Red Sox 1B Wilson Contreras saying "smart fans" and "real fans" don't mind his lack of hustle, if Michael Kay is going to get called into the principal's office for saying the Yankees had an "offensive orgy", Coop's Scoop on Entertainment, Sports Jeopardy, and more!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
WFAN-on-WFAN crime takes over as Evan Roberts discovers his “Head to Bed” nickname for the Yankees bullpen may have been stolen by his own coworkers. After hearing Emmanuel Berbari use the phrase with Craig Carton without giving Evan credit, Evan launches a full investigation into who actually created it and demands recognition for one of his proudest inventions. The accusations only grow after a caller claims Jake from Jomboy has been using “Head to Bed” for months, creating another twist in the ownership battle. Evan also revisits another alleged case of WFAN idea theft involving Michael Kay's “offensive orgy” line as the station's plagiarism accusations pile up.
The Yankees are suddenly back in the AL East race, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber are split on whether this surge is real enough to catch Tampa Bay. Tiki reverses course after four straight wins and an improving lineup, while Evan refuses to abandon the larger sample without Aaron Judge. Gerrit Cole's dominant outing also sparks a major Yankees debate over whether he has actually been better in pinstripes than CC Sabathia. They also get into Michael Kay's eyebrow-raising “offensive orgy” call, Anthony Volpe's move to second base in the minors, Pete Alonso's potential Hall of Fame path, and the roster decision looming for Spencer Jones when Cody Bellinger returns. Plus, the wild New York-area storms and tornado videos lead to a debate over what anyone is actually supposed to do when a tornado hits.
Jerry and C-Lo step in for Boomer & Gio as the Yankees sweep the Orioles, proving their World Series formula with only the Rays standing in their way in the AL. After breaking down heated Giants-Dolphins joint practices, the Islanders' new third jersey, and Jacob deGrom's milestone strikeout, the guys preview Geno Smith's Jets start, Michael Kay's wild broadcast call, and their all-time best and worst concerts. Next, they dive into NFL preseason odds, the origin of Aaron Boone's pointing, and a listener True or False game, before Willie Colon calls in live from Pittsburgh to preview Jets-Steelers. The show wraps up with a debate on the Mets' playoff hopes, an unexpected Moment of the Day, and a preview of tomorrow's Giants game in Miami.
We open with a preview of tonight's Jets preseason game starting Geno Smith, where a Week 1 loss could mean instant disaster. Before Peter's update, the guys recall the Jets' last victory in Miami and yesterday's crazy storms. Spencer Jones homers to complete a Yankees sweep of the Orioles and gain ground on the Rays, sparking a wild call from Michael Kay. Jacob deGrom becomes the second-fastest pitcher to reach 2,000 strikeouts, tensions turn physical at the Giants-Dolphins joint practice, and the winning Islanders alternate jersey is unveiled alongside Peter's failed attempt. Finally, the hour wraps up with a look at everyone's best, worst, and bucket-list live concerts.

Al Dukes responds to Michael Kay's thought's on Old Timer's Day
We open with Michael Kay questioning the lack of interest in Yankees Old Timers' Day, which Gio attributes to non-stop social media access, followed by the Buffalo Bills addressing obstructed view seats in their new stadium. C-Lo's final update revisits Craig Carton recalling hearing Boomer & Gio on a transistor radio while in prison, Shaun Morash wishing a franchise QB would report to camp with a "dog looking" girlfriend, and classic audio of Dan Le Batard awkwardly learning Vince Wilfork has a new wife. The Moment of the Day brings Boomer's reveal of who will induct him into the Radio Hall of Fame. Finally, Boomer notes Phil Simms signs autographs left-handed, leaving Gio to wonder which hand he "snaps off" with.
Michael Kay wondered and Gio said we can check in on these guys at all times thanks to social media and all the media we consume from the present and the past. We also talked the about the seating issues with the new Bills stadium and took a call.

Cam Schlittler's incredible start has created enormous expectations, with Shaun Morash declaring the young Yankees pitcher needs to become one of baseball's best arms and surpass even Ron Guidry's career. Evan Roberts pushes back while also raising a more immediate concern: Schlittler has thrown a heavy workload, mixed dominant outings with recent struggles, and may need extra rest before October. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts. Evan also admits the hype surrounding Nolan McLean went too far and resets expectations for the Mets rookie after an uneven season. Plus, the Michael Kay jinx debate continues, MLB's playoff format gets ripped again, and Shaun's sudden Yankees optimism reaches another level with a bold prediction for the Atlanta series.
The Red Sox have erased a 15.5-game Yankees advantage with a staggering 31-5 run, and Evan Roberts is starting to believe Boston may be for real. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan, and Shaun refuses to buy the hype, predicting the Yankees are about to turn their season around and still finish ahead of Boston. The timing of Boston's surge also puts Michael Kay in the spotlight after his dismissive reaction to Red Sox fans chanting “Yankees suck” came just as the run began. Evan and Shaun debate whether the Yankees can survive without Aaron Judge, what their next 18 games could look like, and whether Cam Schlittler's workload should become a concern. Plus, they rip MLB's playoff format and debate just how great Schlittler must become to meet expectations.
Shaun Morash fills in for Tiki Barber as he and Evan Roberts react to Boston's historic surge and debate whether the Red Sox have officially overtaken the Yankees. They examine the Yankees' struggles without Aaron Judge, George Lombard Jr.'s potential impact and why Trent Grisham must be removed from the leadoff spot. Plus, Jaxson Dart enters a defining second season, Shaquille O'Neal calls the Knicks' championship lucky, Mike Tomlin emerges as a possible future Jets coach and Andy Green makes his case to remain Mets manager. Timestamps: 00:00 Red Sox Erase Yankees' Lead 06:22 Yankees Without Aaron Judge 16:12 Football Finally Returns 45:46 Jaxson Dart's Defining Season 1:11:54 Grisham Must Lose Leadoff Spot 1:26:26 Mrs. Met Makes History 1:28:36 Shaq Rips Knicks' Championship 1:42:06 Yankees-Red Sox Showdown 1:48:16 Jacob deGrom Rejects Atlanta 1:52:06 Mike Tomlin to the Jets 2:12:48 Andy Green's Mets Future 2:24:01 George Lombard's Yankees Hype
The Red Sox have erased a 15.5-game Yankees advantage with a staggering 31-5 run, forcing Evan Roberts to reconsider just how real Boston has become. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan, and Shaun remains defiant, insisting the Yankees will still finish ahead of the Red Sox despite Boston's stunning surge. The timing is impossible to ignore. Boston's run began the same night Michael Kay mocked Red Sox fans for chanting “Yankees suck,” giving Evan a perfect new jinx candidate. Meanwhile, Aaron Judge remains out, the Yankees have played .500 baseball without him, and Evan questions whether that changes anytime soon. Shaun sees the opposite, predicting the Yankees are about to heat up before a huge late-August showdown with Boston.

Then, the voice of the New York Yankees Michael Kay stops by to discuss stirring his tea with the arm of his glasses, his food peculiarities, Yankees' triage trade deadline strategy, the need for a right-handed catcher and a swing-and-miss reliever, why New York would be loathe to trade top prospect George Lombard Jr., and the Yankees' rotation mowing down opposing hitters.

Get the podcast (and exclusive content):https://randygage.com/podcastMost people have heard the saying, "Money doesn't buy happiness." Randy agrees. But he also points out an uncomfortable truth: poverty doesn't buy happiness either. In this thought-provoking conversation on Chapter X, Randy joins host Michael Kay to explore the relationship between money, prosperity, fulfillment, and what it really means to live a rich life. Randy explains why money and material possessions are an important part of prosperity, but not the whole picture. He shares insights from working with highly successful entrepreneurs and executives who have built massive wealth, only to discover that financial success alone doesn't guarantee happiness, meaningful relationships, health, or purpose. The discussion challenges common misconceptions about wealth and reveals why true prosperity requires balance across every area of life. In This Episode: • Why money doesn't buy happiness, but poverty doesn't either • The difference between wealth and prosperity • Why material possessions aren't the ultimate goal • What Randy's ultra-successful clients are really struggling with • The hidden cost of neglecting relationships and health • Why many high achievers reach a point of reassessment • Creating a life that includes wealth, purpose, health, and fulfillment • How prosperity extends beyond your bank account If you've ever wondered whether success and happiness are the same thing, this conversation offers a powerful perspective.

The Anthony Volpe controversy deepens as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber compare Michael Kay's retracted claim with a similar report from Joel Sherman. They debate whether Volpe resisted playing second base, whether the story was twisted by semantics, and why versatility could determine his future with the Yankees. The conversation also covers Brett Baty's value as a multiposition player, the Jets' modest version of the promised land, and Evan's scorekeeping vindication after a Mets error was corrected. Plus, the hosts discuss a frustrating flat tire ordeal, possible catcher trades involving the Yankees, and Jordan Clarkson's return to the Knicks.
The Yankees face a pivotal game against Tampa Bay with Cody Bellinger at first base, Paul Goldschmidt on the bench, and their division hopes beginning to tighten. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate the lineup, the bullpen plan, and whether Brian Cashman deserves more credit for keeping the franchise competitive without delivering another championship. The Anthony Volpe controversy takes center stage as Michael Kay walks back a report that Volpe resisted playing second base while Joel Sherman appears to support the original claim. The conversation also covers Francisco Lindor's lack of hustle, excitement around the young Nets, the Jets' definition of the promised land, and possible catcher moves before the trade deadline.
Michael Kay says there is no truth to the rumor that Anthony Volpe refused to play second base in the minor leagues, but the original claim may have already changed how Yankees fans view him. Evan Roberts examines the retraction and the questions that still remain. The conversation explores whether the Yankees pushed back on the story, why false or unverified claims can be impossible to erase, and how Volpe could rebuild his value by becoming a more versatile player. Even with the denial, the rumor may continue to follow him.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Most of us grow up thinking success means staying busy, staying strong, and never stopping. But what happens when the career that defined you is gone? Michael Kay spent decades as a financial planner and NYU instructor helping high achievers build wealth — until he realized the most important investments had nothing to do with portfolios. He's the host of the Chapter X Podcast and author of How to Craft Your Chapter X, and he's spent years guiding successful men through the emotional and psychological shift from career identity to a purposeful next chapter. He's been married to his college sweetheart Wendy since 1977, is a dad of two, and a grandfather of three. This conversation goes deep on the patterns we inherit from our fathers, what it actually means to listen instead of just waiting to respond, and why retirement without intention is a trap most men never see coming. If you've ever tied your worth to what you do instead of who you are, this one is for you.

The way your father treated you was shaped by everything that happened to him before you arrived. Understanding the roots of that behavior doesn't excuse it, but it changes how you carry it forward. You only break a cycle when something from outside enters your normal. For Michael, that was Al Roth — a marine turned butcher who loved his family loudly and openly. You can't change patterns you can't see, and sometimes it takes a single outside example to show you another way. Men and women don't process information the same way, and pretending otherwise is what creates most communication breakdowns. Allowing space, taking things in small chunks, and saying "let me think about that" are not signs of weakness — they're how you stop reacting and start responding. Retirement without intention is just drift. Most high-achieving men have never asked themselves who they are without the title. Chapter X isn't about winding down; it's about solving for what comes next before the career disappears and leaves a vacuum behind it. Your eulogy is your roadmap. What you want your spouse, your kids, your grandchildren to say about you at the end is the truest picture of what you actually value. The gap between that and how you spent last Tuesday is worth sitting with.
