1/20/21 - Hour 1 - Springer Shuns The Mets, Porter Is Long Gone, Jerry Updates, Kyrie Speaks,

Marker 01

Long Form (multi topic, hourly/full show)

Hour 1

Jerry is in for Boomer today and he and Gio started with the Knicks win last night. Gio said it was impressive because they didn’t seem to have it last night. They got a few lucky calls and they have Jalen Brunson, who put up another 43 points last night. Gio said the Knicks looked stunned at times by the Pacers offense. Josh Hart once again played 48 minutes. C-Lo is here for his first update and starts with the sounds of last night’s Knicks win. C-Lo then went around the NBA last night. The Mets beat the Cardinals and we talked about the arch in St. Louis. The Yankees play the Astros at the stadium tonight. In the final segment of the hour, Gio thinks the Knicks got away with one last night. Jerry said the Knicks weren’t at their best, but they made things happen and they won. Jerry thinks the Pacers can blow them out one game in Indiana. Ben Simmons was at the MET Gala last night. 

Hour 2

Reggie Miller will be back at MSG tomorrow night for TNT. We talked about what we expect from the remaining Knicks/Pacers series. Julius Randle was a big part of the culture change, so it must suck for him to not be a part of this. Gio didn’t think recreating the Villanova team would work, but it has. We talked about the Knicks potentially trading Randle but Jerry doesn’t think that’s happening. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with the sounds of last night’s Knicks win over the Pacers. We heard from Jimmy Butler who doesn’t seem to like the Knicks or Tom Thibodeau. He did have a drink in his hand so maybe he was a little tipsy. The Mets beat the Cardinals and Brett Baty got his feet tangled with the third base ump. In the final segment of the hour, Gio met weather person Janice Huff on the streets of NYC. We talked about other local news people we liked growing up. 

Hour 3

Last night was another great Knicks game that came down to the final minutes again. The Knicks got a call or two and Jalen Brunson scored over 40 again. There was a scoring snafu in the Knicks game for a very short time yesterday. A caller wonders if a team ever won a game because of a mistake with the scoring. C-Lo returns for an update, but first Gio said C-Lo sneezed right in his face. Gio said you can hold in a sneeze and C-Lo said you can’t always. C-Lo starts with all the sounds from last night’s Knicks win. Reggie Miller talked about coming back to the Garden tomorrow. He said he would be hurt if he didn't hear, ‘Reggie sucks’. Gio said Reggie should be in the ‘best ugly athletes’ category. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer is taking a red eye tonight and will just show up around 8am tomorrow morning. We also announced Kickoff To Summer at D’Jais in Belmar, NJ.

Hour 4

We expect both the Knicks and Rangers to move on from their series. We took calls from Knicks fans and talked more about the scoring snafu on the scoreboard. Jerry wonders if the NBA knows they have 2 different products. The regular season that ‘sucks’, and the playoffs. A caller, who doesn’t root for the Knicks, said they are so likable that he’s finding himself rooting for them now. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with all the sound from last night’s Knicks win. Gio tells a story about Dov eating tuna fish in the control room and them fighting about it back in 2008. Jalen Brunson stopped the conversation when someone was comparing him to Michael Jordan. The Mets beat the Cardinals in St. Louis thanks to Brandon Nimmo’s HR. Through a spokesperson, Gisele felt deeply disappointed by the portrayal of her family. The Moment of The Day involves the A’s and players you’ve not heard of. In the final segment of the show, Gio talked about going to the Ear Inn in NYC for lunch on Friday.
