Marker 01

Long Form (multi topic, hourly/full show)

Hour 1

The Mets beat the Yankees again last night and got back to .500. The offense has come to life and Boomer called Francisco Alvarez the ‘cog’ for the team. The Yankees are still in first place, they still have 52 wins. Gleyber Torres was benched last night and it wasn’t for an injury. It will be really interesting to see what the Mets and Yankees do at the trade deadline. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the Mets beating the Yankees. Alvarez hit an opposite field 3-run HR. The Mets are 15-4 in their last 19 games. Luis Gil said, ‘that’s how it goes’ with good moments and bad moments. OG Anunoby is coming back to the Knicks. Chris Russo didn’t think the Mikal Bridges trade was a big deal. We compared the sound of an elephant snoring to Eddie snoring. Jerry has audio from last night’s NBA draft. In the final segment of the hour, Gio loves this song, ‘Million Dollar Baby’ by Tommy Richman. Down the hall, Maggie Gray is eating tuna fish jello because she lost a bet. 

Hour 2

We started the hour with the Knicks and OG Anunoby signing a new deal with the Knicks. We also talked about Jalen Brunson and the Knicks going forward. Leon Rose’s daughter dropped hints about the Mikal Bridges trade on social media before it went down. Gio doesn’t think the Knicks will be able to sign Isaiah Hartenstein. Gio said you cannot count on Mitchell Robinson to stay healthy next season. Boomer said this has been the best Knicks offseason in 20 years or more. Jerry returns for an update and has the sounds from last night’s Mets win over the Yankees. Alvarez and Vientos have been the key to the Mets resurgence. Jerry said Aaron Judge is the best player he’s ever seen. Shohei Ohtani homered and now has an RBI in 10 straight games, a Dodgers franchise record. Jerry plays, ‘What The Hell is That?’ In the final segment of the hour, Gio said the next big star is a female Chinese basketball player. Her name is Zhang Ziyu and she is 7’3” but only 17 years old. 

Hour 3

Boomer wonders how many different species of woodpeckers there are. Gio said woodpeckers are being studied for concussions in people. Gio wonders what Joe Benigno’s cats are thinking. We talked about Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez. A caller thinks Boomer compared him to Johnny Bench. He did not. We compared Boomer’s popularity in Cincinnati to great players on the Reds. Jerry returns for an update but first a caller has coaches that will be 72 when Gio’s daughter is 24. Jerry has the sounds from last night’s Mets win over the Yankees. Keith and Ron talked about Juan Soto being a liability in right field at Citi Field. Mike Francesa said technology will soon allow him to take phone calls on his podcast. There will be an A-I version of Al Michaels for the Olympics. In the final segment of the hour, Mike in Piscataway, made us customized ball markers. A caller said Boomer & Gio are bougie golfers and only play at the best country clubs. 

Hour 4

We talked about the Knicks and Isaiah Hartenstein and his future contract. There might be a team that blows him away with an offer. What is the future of Mitchell Robinson and the Knicks? Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with the Mets beating the Yankees again.  The Moment of The Day involves a snoring elephant and a snoring Eddie Scozzare. In the final segment of the show, Jay Wright joins us to talk about the Knicks and all the Villanova players.
