Speaker 1 (01:24):
But people are who you get.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
People are idiots because I was watching a lot of
funny videos earlier today where Chiefs fans are like Mahomes.
There's great clips if you look hard enough, where all
Buffalo Bills.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Fans are like Josh Allen.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
We wanted Josh Rong Josh. Sure, people are bird brains,
but hey, NFL draft is really fun regardless. I do
have to ask Steve Cavino, being that you are half Voto,
half Guido, if you were a player getting drafted tonight,
how flashy would you be?

Speaker 3 (01:56):
Like?

Speaker 2 (01:56):
What would you be rocking? What? What would be your drip?
As the kids say, I mean, you gotta wear lots
of chains, that's just it, even with your suit.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
You just gotta let them hang.

Speaker 4 (02:06):
And what would your walkout song be? We saw the
official list, Oh, it's probably.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Like we want the funk. I don't gotta have that funk.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Something like to make a statement. I don't know something
something that slick would walk out to. What did slick
walk out to Oh Drive soul bro Yeah, something like that,
or maybe some rage against the machine groove long great
disco song Dronis. They're a cool Mexican rock band. I
was gonna say, if you're it's running man, If you're
some like no, you know what return of the Mac.

(02:34):
I'll go old school. Do you feel like the Mac?
You feel like the Man? I'd have a sweet lining
in my suit jacket. I'd be real flashy. I'd be
selling watches.

Speaker 4 (02:43):
Cam Ward's walkout song is freestyle by Rod Wave.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
Yeah, no, I don't know, man, it's a great question.
What would you walk out too? You don't want to
seem dated. You're asking a guy, you know who listens
to hard rock of the nineties and the Zeros and
old school hip hop. So yeah, I'd want to come
out to some big or some rage. But today, in
today's world, I don't know. What would you call pony Club?
It's pink Pony Club?

Speaker 1 (03:06):
How there? You love that song? Do you like that song?

Speaker 2 (03:09):
But I when he come out to that, I think,
what if you went actually wrestling style and they call
your name with the eighth pick?

Speaker 1 (03:18):
You know, the forty nine ers take Rich Davis and all.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Of a sudden, I come out like stone cold, you
know what, I'm not gonna actually I will debate that
because if you want to play that game, I would say,
mister perfect steam because it's so majestic, you know what
I mean?

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Something like that.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
But hey, we're gonna see some memorable moments tonight.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
We NFL Draft Thursday. It's sort of a holiday.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
We've been talking to you about how the draft has
only amped up in the last you know, ten, twenty thirty,
forty fifty years, Like the draft is abnormally a scene.
And Danny g pointed out, not only do the guys have,
you know, their jewelry, their sweet suits. A lot of
guys that know what team they're going to might actually
have a color scheme that matches the team, like cam

(04:01):
Ward may have some Titan colors with his pocket square
or tie.

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Who knows. But now you add theme songs to the mix.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Theme songs, and we're gonna see a major production and
you're gonna get extensive coverage here on Fox Sports Radio.
But tomorrow when we come back to talk about it,
I will be talking about just the observations of how
massive it appeared. The production value, the inside of people's
living rooms, and the girlfriend's reactions. I know it's gonna

(04:30):
be a lot of fun things to watch tonight. I'm
not you know, I'm not Zoolander or Mugatu or Hansel.
I'm no fashionista. Yeah, but I'm just looking at the
TV's in the background. Yeah, some guy's probably gonna have
a top hat on and we're gonna have fun making
fun of no.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
No Adam Schefter. Yeah, I think he believes he's Andrew Whitworth.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
He's wearing a hoodie like under the sports k but
over the.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Tie in suit. I know it's Green Bay, Wisconsin, but
it's outside when you're watching.

Speaker 2 (05:03):
It's a very I'll give him credit for trying, but
I don't think I've ever seen a guy wear a
hoodie in between the sports.

Speaker 1 (05:11):
Coat and the tie.

Speaker 2 (05:12):
All right, Well, these are the observations you'll get from
us tomorrow and more.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Remember that time McKinley walked out with a big frame
photo of his grandma.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Yeah, that was awesome.

Speaker 2 (05:22):
You know, I can't wait, and I don't know what
pick it's going to be, but there will be one
overly ambitious girlfriend that's in the shot that's a little
huggy kissy, sort of like, you know, marking her territory
like this is my man. And my favorite is the
CD LAMB clip from a couple of years ago where

(05:43):
the girlfriend was like looking at his phone and he
was aggravated and in that moment, in that moment, you.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
Knew this ain't no, that's not the best one. The
best one.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
I can't remember who it was, but it was when
the mom pulled the girlfriend out of the shot. She
basically pulled her by the hair, like, get out of
my shot, and the mom pulled her off.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
You don't remember that, of course I did. It was that,
though I forgot it was it was.

Speaker 2 (06:02):
It wasn't someone that you remember, but it was course
Russell Wilson's ex.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
One of the best still shots of all Brett Farv
in his short so again.

Speaker 2 (06:12):
Yeah, lots of memorable moments tonight, for sure, and we
look forward to talking about it.

Speaker 1 (06:18):
Enjoy your NFL Draft Thursday.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
And speaking of we do this every Thursday here on
the Covino and Rich Show, Old School and fifty Hits.
When fifty hits on the clock, we get into it.
And because of the draft process and the interviewing process,
which is part of it.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
It's a big part.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
We said in honor of draft day, what was your
worst job interview ever?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Well, when you have any stories when you talk about
the interview.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
H isn't that sort of dictating the Shadoor Sanders storyline? Right?
Like some team said, well he came into way too
cocky and other people said, I love a guy with
at that age the confidence to think that he could
change your franchise, Like it determines you know, you see
what goes on on the field, but they want to
know what type of guy he is off the field
and will he fit into that that team, into that franchise,

(07:05):
into that future.

Speaker 1 (07:06):
So the interview process is a big part of it,
a big deal.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
Have you ever heard someone give you tips on job
interviews like what to do always make eye contact? Ever
seen asked them questions? Have you ever heard the theory
of mimic what they do?

Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (07:22):
The body language like if they have their leg folded,
you have your leg folded. Apparently whatever they're doing. If
they lean closer to you, you lean closer to them.
There are truly there's like a subconscious like if you're
doing what they're doing. I'll tell you what I used
to interview people to give them their start in radio, right, interns,
part time, things like that. I used to interview people
all the time. And here's a little trick that always

(07:43):
worked on me. When people were excited to be there,
seemed excited, complimented what I was doing, Like, man, what
you're doing is the coolest thing ever, and I just
want to be a part of that. It always made me,
the inner viewer, feel good about what I'm doing, so
it made me like them more. So I'm like, yeah,

(08:05):
this guy, he made me feel cool.

Speaker 1 (08:07):
I like him. You're hired. There. There's something about there.
There's tricks there. Do you have any questions from me?

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (08:14):
You get that there one. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
But if you leave as the interviewer, if you leave
feeling that that person made you feel good, that does work.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
It really does.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
It works to their advantage because it shows you like
that they wanted to be there because they envy what you.

Speaker 4 (08:29):
Do, and they also feel great if you research him
or her, Covino, whoever's interviewing you and their company.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
That way, you're knowledgeable, damn right.

Speaker 4 (08:37):
Because too many kids nowadays do not take the time
to find out what they're even stepping into.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
BAM.

Speaker 2 (08:43):
Have a slight general knowledge about the person interviewing.

Speaker 1 (08:49):
Interviewing you's history. Danny rich takes a lot of pride.
It's the it's the Rich Davis.

Speaker 2 (08:54):
Anytime you've ever had a meeting with anyone, I know
where they grow up. I know a college they went to.
I know if they've kids, hold their kids roof what
teams they root for. You go into it Google.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
Search or just the check your or whatever. I think.

Speaker 2 (09:07):
I think being overly prepared for a job interview is
could what It may get you the job.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
But you would think those things are obvious, and they're not.
They're not big big Mike who kind of runs this place.
Somebody say who for me?

Speaker 2 (09:21):
Who?

Speaker 1 (09:22):
Who held?

Speaker 4 (09:23):
He told us a story about how he interviewed somebody,
I think it was last year, and he asked them
how much they listened to the network and they told him,
Dave never listened.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
Or spend a week prior to your interview.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
You know when your interview date is, how about you
listen around the clock prior to your interview.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
We interviewed people. They told him, Yeah, I'm not much
of a sports person.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
What I've interviewed people at Back of the Day Serious
Exam when we were there and they came in like, yeah,
I don't really know what is it Cyrus Radio? Trying
to get a job here man, and you're what are
you thinking?

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Bad?

Speaker 2 (09:55):
So another thing before we take the sad stories of
your terrible job interviews eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox,
and we'll talk more NFL draft obviously it's draft night.
I am a firm believer in what Cavino said, and
I'll back it up by saying, make the person that's
interviewing you feel cool, feel cool. We would have people,
remember interns back in the day, Yeah, I missed the

(10:17):
days of having someone help out for free, and they
demanded being paid.

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Yeah, but it may make sense they deserve it. No,
one's no, it should work for free. Why? Well I did.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
It's called you got college credit? Yeah, but still you
sure any whatever? I remember saying, I really don't care
about your resume. We would always have an intern sit
in for like twenty minutes on the show to see
what we're what we're doing. I was judging them based
on their body language, if they were following along with
the conversation, chuckling, laughing, smiling, versus someone could be super qualified,

(10:48):
but if they sat there like the whole time, I
was like, yeah, we can't hire that person.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
They're gonna give me bad vibes.

Speaker 2 (10:55):
So we're giving you advice. You know, it's part of
the process of the NFL draft. You have to present
well you do. You have to show that you want
to be a part of this team, part of this organization,
whatever it may be. So with that said, again, major
part of it based on that your worst interview experiences.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
I got two.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Stories With that said, though, how do you think this
plays into the shad or Sanders thing? Because we heard
the mixed messages of some saying, wow, way too cocky.
This guy comes in here saying that I'm going to
change the franchise, and then other people look at that
and say, wow, that's the kind of leadership I want.
Do you think that is more of a pro or
con If you look at thirty two teams, what percentage

(11:31):
you think think that's a good Think that's a good thing?

Speaker 1 (11:34):
And would you think it's a good thing.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Do you have a bunch of veteran leaders there already
where it's gonna rub them the wrong way.

Speaker 1 (11:39):
Do you have a young team that needs leadership?

Speaker 2 (11:42):
And if you have a young team that needs leadership,
he might be that guy you need, and therefore you
appreciate the swag and confidence that he comes with. So
again it's case by case. I do appreciate it if
we're in need for it. So I got two stories.
One I mentioned not too long ago. Rich and I

(12:03):
were up for a morning show gig in New York City,
big time, major opportunity, and he was a new program
director at the time, and he hit us off with
the weirdest question, and based on the question really determined
the vibe and outcome of the interview. Stacey got taken
off the air in a year and we would have
lost our job.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
But yeah, so it worked out to our benefit.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
But he's like, oh, you guys are living in La now,
huh La. You guys are West Coast guys. Well, you
want to come back to New York. I got one
question for You're like, all right. He goes, It's the
dumbest thing I've ever heard, But I swear to God
just played a factor. This played a major factor. He goes,
do you like chilula or tap patillo? He's like, you're Mexican, right,

(12:49):
I said, we have part. He's like, so is it
Chilulu Tapatillo? And I didn't know what to say. I'm like,
oh no, what do I Say're both good?

Speaker 1 (12:59):
I said? And I worked at Bennigan's years ago, right.

Speaker 2 (13:04):
And we served Chilula, So I've always liked Chilula is
slightly better than I said, said chi Lula. You know
what this guy said, wrong answer, And you know what,
the interview was all downhill after that, and he basically
walked us out. We never heard back from the guy
you were if I said, we may have gotten we
may have got the gig. I think that story I've

(13:25):
gotten out of I think it's gotten out of hand
in your own mind. But I'm telling you, guy, I
felt like I lost the million dollar questions.

Speaker 4 (13:32):
That actually saved you in the long run.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
I do think, however, there are there are times where
someone just wants like I think that answer might be
to decide, if you are decisive.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
I can't saw it. That's the wrong answer.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
No, But if I said tapatio, the guy would have
got out of a seat high five me. And now
we're best friends and we're vibing in a totally different way.
He made me feel like a loser.

Speaker 5 (13:53):
Hold on, you're leaving out, like Tabasco and Crystal and
like Louisiana Hot saung.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
You didn't give me those options, right, and you know,
Oh that's all it was. That was the weirdest thing.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
By I can't tell you a question like that in
an interview would make a guy like Iowa Sam's head
spin off.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
I know I what I was, Sam, I.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
Can only I can't pick one. Yeah, he was just said,
why not both get one and flower?

Speaker 2 (14:15):
Here? See one of the like in a movie or
TV show where someone's like, the next words out of
your mouth better be like yes or no. Sam would
be like, but what about the interview process? All right,
I'm decisive, Get out of here, all right now? The
other story is this, and I think there's a lot
of people nationwide that might remember something similar similar. Okay,

(14:37):
oh man, I thought of another one. I got two,
but I'll give you one. Remember when we were all
looking for that summer job before we kicked into career mode.
You're looking for a summer job on every telephone, Paul.
Growing up, it was like, if you want to make
thirty to sixty thousand dollars in the summer, call this
number and you ripped a little tag off. I actually
did that, and I ended up, you know, getting an interview,

(14:59):
and I was so pumped about and I put my
oversized suit on and I was like, oh, I'm gonna
go there. And I sat in this crappy office with
wood panels and crappy awards all over the place and
like you seeming like.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
The guy kind of guy, we need your go get her.
You know.

Speaker 2 (15:13):
He's like you're hired, and I'm hired to do what?
And he's like, come back tomorrow. Like, I guess I
got a job. I came home all proud of my parents.
I got a job making sixty thousand in the summer.
I went back on a job. Man, They're like come back.
Came back the next day, like all right, well, here's
these knives and they start cutting work boots and they're
like they're called the Cutcoe knives. And you're the door

(15:35):
to the door and sell these knives. But you gotta
pay for all these knives. Yeah, not being like what,
I'm not this, I'm selling knives. I don't want this
stupid job. I was spent two days on this, So
that's another one. And how many of us fell into
some sort of pyramid scheme thing or what was the
name of that company that they tried to get you
to work for when you were in college. All the
time there's those pyramid scheme things and you get a

(15:59):
couple people to sign up. Yeah, I was like, nah,
but that happened to everybody, everybody, because I guess we're
all vulnerable trying to make Does everyone have one friend
in high school of college that sold knives? My parents
owned the set of knives because they fell bad by
buddy Jeff Kotko. And by the way, I hear, they're great,
But I wasn't trying to cut a work boot or
a penny just to make some money during my summer.

Speaker 4 (16:21):
I have a high school friend who still does that,
and on his Facebook page he's always bragging about all
the trips he's taken and everything. He calls himself the
knife king.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
Dude. See now I feel like I blew it.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
I swear you know what you could have been, knife King?
You could have been a lot of things.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
You know, you've watched late night television. There's like cutlery
corner that always comes on like it's like paid programming,
and some guys like cutting through all these different things.
Why do I need to cut through a work boot.
I'm not going to eat a work boot, bro.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
What was that Ponzi scheme that went on in our
college days? Everyone was trying to get you in. It
had like a binder full of this guy and you
work for this guy and then this.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
I feel like there's a lot of young women like
verbal supplements.

Speaker 2 (16:58):
I feel like there's a lot of young women that
sell like makeup products, like yeah, but one of our
old coworkers like Bamboozo Cavino and like, oh bye for
my girlfriend.

Speaker 1 (17:06):
Don't you still buy products with this woman? Yeah? Yeah,
that's Herbal life was a big one. Urb life was yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (17:14):
But again it's part of like you're being duped during
this interview and you think your life's gonna change. So
weird interview moments. As a guy who did interviews, right,
I'll never forget this, and it's just a weird thing.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
It goes back to what Rich was saying before.

Speaker 2 (17:27):
It's a body language thing, right, It's like, how how
bad do you want to be here?

Speaker 6 (17:31):
To me?

Speaker 1 (17:31):
If you're in an interview and if Shadora Sanders.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Is interviewing with the Giants or whoever, dude, he takes
his jacket off. He sits there real eager and excited
about it. He's like, yeah, tell me more about the Giants.
I want to be here and play for the Giants.
You got to show some sort of enthusiasm, right. I
remember interviewing a guy and Rich knows the story. He
kept his coat on the whole time. He kept his
scarf on the whole I get a stiff now. He

(17:55):
looked like he was Bobby the brain heenan with. And
it wasn't like it wasn't a stylish scar it was
like a bundled up scarf up to his neck, up
to his chin. And the whole time He's like this, yeah,
like all stiff, and I'm like, can this guy relax?
Is to me, it showed he didn't want to be here,
and I'm like, yeah, you're not getting the job.

Speaker 4 (18:13):
Speaking of not wanting to be there, I have audio.
This came to mind when we were brainstorming this topic
this morning. I was thinking of the two of you
in the same room interviewing with somebody together at the
same time, and this came to mind right here.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Listen, well, Brennan, you certainly have had a lot of jobs.
I'm a bit of a spark plug and human resources lady.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
Oh you know it's actually it's Pam. I'm sorry, well Pan, No,
my name is Pan. Are you saying Pan or Pam?
I'm saying Pam.

Speaker 7 (18:44):
Yeah, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
Who's this gentleman sitting behind you? Hello, miss lady. I'm Dale.

Speaker 8 (18:49):
I'm Brendan's stepbrother and I think I might be able
to help with a Pan Pam dilemma.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
Yeah, that'd be great. Pam Pam Pam with Eddy on
the end.

Speaker 5 (19:00):
There's no d It's it's like calm and.

Speaker 7 (19:09):
No, there's just one m.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
You know what that reminds me of it? It reminds me
that I have to watch step Brothers. I haven't watched
it in years. I'm overdue such a class.

Speaker 1 (19:17):
And by the way, don't you.

Speaker 2 (19:18):
Wish you could watch the interview process like sometimes to
see how and why things maybe didn't pan out? Panned
Pam out, Pam, Pam, Pam panned out. I think that's because,
if anything, if you get anything from the stupid spin
we're putting on this, guys, it's the importance of the
interview process. You could be the greatest athlete in the world,

(19:40):
but maybe you were just a terrible interview and to
get If you're going to be the face of a
of a team or a franchise, you've got to be
able to represent man. You have to have some sort
of ability to represent an interview and present in a
good way, all compared to something else very important in
life because of what we do in the nature bush
just you know, having the ability to chat. It's like

(20:03):
a first date. I was always a good I was
always a tremendous first date. Maybe a terrible second date
and a terrible third date and so on. But it's
like a first date. A job interview is a first date.
It's leaving a good impression, and you know, maybe that's
maybe there's more reason, more than meets the eye, as
to why certain things didn't happen.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
A lot of these players like, oh, why didn't he
go there? Why didn't they get him?

Speaker 2 (20:24):
Maybe he was a terrible first date, you know, So
these are things we never truly really know the details of.
But worst interview story, just know that if your team
chooses someone peculiar or they pass on someone. It could
very well be that or bad during during a very
important time during the combine, during the interviews, that this
player rubbed someone the wrong way. There could be someone

(20:46):
super talented that you're like, yeah, I'm I'm not feeling
this person. Now there's a test that I think I
was Sam would pass because I know he is a
man of integrity. Would you say I was Samuel R.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
I mean, he's definitely a man. Are a man of
many things board a producer, I was Sam. He can't
pick just one. I saw.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
There's a few executives that said they do something called
the coffee cup test, and I feel like you would
pass this. What they do is they interview someone it's
morning usually, so they'll they almost like insist upon, like, hey,
let's go to the kitchen and get a coffee and
you know whatever the company has, like oh, someone brought
in donuts. You go in for the interview, and the
whole test is really do you clean up after yourself?

(21:29):
Are you the a hole that's like that you leave
the empty coffee cup in the boss's office, Like are
you the person that's like I'll throw it out, let
me get yours too, Like it's almost a test. It's
almost like the shopping car test, like you return your car,
like if someone offered you kumino. We went out with
a big executive and they offered your cup of coffee
and you left, but you left your empty, dirty cup
of coffee on their desk. Well, if you don't think

(21:50):
that you gotta be in charge or in charge of
making these important decisions, aren't taking note of that? I
think everybody's wrong. You know, they're trying to see what
type of man you are in this situation with the leader,
which what kind of example you're gonna set and be?
I remember, I'm never gonna remember, so maybe it's worthless
to bring up. But there was a draft story where

(22:12):
someone went out it might have been a free free
agent acquisition and someone was rubbed the wrong way by
the player not making eye contact with the server or
like talking down to the bus boy to the point
where I never it was a free agency or draft
or something, and it it blew. They were like, we
don't we don't want them anymore, we don't want them,

(22:32):
like they got the from a dinner. They assessed, like yeah,
but yeah, doesn't it make sense. Don't you make those assessments.
If I did, if I was on a day with
a woman that talked down to a server, it's over.
So imagine you're imagine if you were investing millions and
millions of dollars.

Speaker 1 (22:49):
All these things matter.

as I know, you know what their.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
Slogan is, by the way, I love it. Their slogan
when you put it on, something happens. I'm still waiting
to see what that is, but we'll find out. Wow.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Yeah, and that's Rich Davis.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
But right now, because of the draft day importance, I
think we often rely primarily on well, what happens on
the field, but what happens off the field is really important,
and that's the interviewing process. What type of man are they,
what type of person are they lead? Do people respect them?

(26:00):
They present?

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Well?

Speaker 2 (26:01):
Forget the draft. It also plus to free agency in sports.
More than ever ything man teams are at first dates
that's just life, but it's uberly important when you got
millions of dollars invested in this. I think free agency
is interesting because that's a two sided debate.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
That's a two sided interview.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
The teams are assessing the guy and the guy is
assessing the team, So you got both sides of the coin.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Now, Danny, you.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
Said you had a funny hypothetical from a job interview
you were on.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
Yeah, I wonder how you guys would have handled it.
It was my very first radio interview at a commercial
radio station. I was in high school, so I'm so
excited to get this interview. Guy calls me in. He's
the afternoon drive DJ of the station and the program director,
so he interviews me during his shift while he's on
the air, and some of it I think he was
showing off while he was on the microphone. So I'm

(26:47):
standing there watching him and he's you could tell he
had a pack of cigarettes. He's one of those dudes
to smoke to get the nice radio voice. And he's
like km I X and he's on the mic doing
the whole thing, turns the mic off, turns swivels his
chair around. He's like, so that's how it's done. And
he's showing me the equipment. That's how it's done. He's
showing me the equipment, and he shows me how he
cueued up the next song. So he goes to the

(27:08):
commercial break. After that song, he walks out. He tells
me I'll be right back. I'm gonna take a quick
smoke break. So I'm in there by myself, and I'm
a teenager. I'm looking around in the studio like, man,
this is amazing in here.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
The commercials are going commercials.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
He's not back, so I'm sticking my head out into
the hallway, like.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Where is this guy? Where is this bony done? He
does not come back.

Speaker 4 (27:31):
The last commercial stops, there's dead air, and I'm like,
what do I do? So I went, I hit the
button to play the little announcement for the name of
the station, and I started the song the way I
saw him do it. He calmly comes walking back in
a minute later, and he says, not bad. Could have

(27:52):
been a little tighter, though.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
You pessed. Yeah, that's a risky movie, are you for reals?

Speaker 3 (27:58):
Right?

Speaker 4 (27:58):
Afternoon drive on a big radio station, scared the living,
you know, I.

Speaker 2 (28:02):
Can imagine, especially for a high school kid.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
You don't know what to do in that situation. Man,
that was a solid move. You know.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
I once had a boss when I first started radio.
It was a very casual interview. He said to me,
all right, before I hire, you just got to promise
me you won't sleep with anyone in the studio.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Truth say. He said that.

Speaker 2 (28:20):
I go, yeah, yeah. He goes look me in the
eyes and say it. And I had him tell him
lation well, I mean it was a different time, Sam.
It was the you know, two thousands, so it was
the twenty three.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
All my ex girlfriends, So don't sleep with any of them.
He goes, listen, you can't. He didn't.

Speaker 2 (28:33):
He didn't use the words sleep with. He was a
little more vulgar. You're not going to blank any girls.
He used the studio. You say, make whoopie? He said,
make whoopy?

Speaker 1 (28:40):
Yes? Wow.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
So what was this wrapping it up? Oh two with
your phone calls? Worst interview story or just funny interview story?
Eight seven, seven ninety nine On Fox, we got Kent
in Maine.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
Hey can't can't You're on the show.

Speaker 9 (28:58):
Hey, how's a gone? Gentlemen?

Speaker 1 (28:59):
What's updy?

Speaker 2 (29:01):
So?

Speaker 8 (29:03):
First, I don't know if you were.

Speaker 9 (29:04):
Referring to this a little while ago. But I know
when I was in college, there was like this college
painting company scheme that was always going around trying to
get a bunch of people to like put together these
painting crews for like painting houses over the summer. And
that was kind of like one of those pyramid scheme
type things.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
You know what I was thinking of, man, and thanks
for calling, And it's all the same sort of thing.
You're all excited about this opportunity and you sit through
this boring interview process and you think you're going somewhere,
and then you realize it's some sort of Ponzi scheme
or whatever. Amway was one of them, Amway and what
was the other one? Rich that him hit us up with, Oh,

(29:45):
hold on Primerica Primaria.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
So yeah, it was all these things. You're like, oh, man,
you're gonna make a million books. I applied once for
topless maids and they were like, we only want women.

Speaker 1 (29:56):
Right, So thank you, buddy. Let's call at you. Jordan
in Toronto, Hey.

Speaker 8 (30:03):
What's up, guys.

Speaker 6 (30:06):
So I'm in my very young twenties. Is a couple
of years after nine to eleven and I'm working at
a run a car company call center and I got
like a you know, a nice red mohawk, you know,
really really riding high off the nineties, but in a
really crappy work workplace. Yes, And I had had an

(30:28):
interview to become a supervisor there, and I would have
been fifteen twenty years younger than most of them there.
And the managers like, do you think I'm seriously going
to hire somebod who looks like you? Like how can
I take you seriously? Like how can you motivate people
to work here and get them do their jobs? And
I'm like, because people want money, like no one's waking

(30:49):
up in the morning going to school. Then oh, I
can't wait to work in a call center for the
rest of my life.

Speaker 8 (30:54):
Like, yeah, the straight and you.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
Know Vince mc mann would have hired you to be
the red rooster. Yeah there you go, Thank you coming
you save that I didn't, yeah, man.

Speaker 2 (31:05):
And then when the call center didn't work out, I
became a wrestler.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
That's a story, but thank you who else?

Speaker 2 (31:12):
We I appreciate the feedback, even even if storytelling's not
your thing.

Speaker 1 (31:17):
All right, Dave and Roorgan, what's up? Dave, Hey, Dave,
that's how.

Speaker 8 (31:22):
You doing, boyd Hey, man, I got a different take.
Here's the one where the interview went well. But then
when you showed up for the job, which was a
great company, all of a sudden, you're going, man, I
don't want to do this.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Yeah that's the worst. Yeah I felt that way. That's
how I got into radio.

Speaker 2 (31:43):
I interviewed for like to work at a PR firm
now Puerto Rican Public Relations, and I remember being like
everyone's wearing a suit and it's like very like I
don't know business. And then I went to a radio station.
It seemed like everyone's having fun, and that's you know.
I remember being like, yeah, I'm going to leave this job.
Now radio is calling. All right, Manzi, let's go to

(32:04):
you for an update.

Speaker 1 (32:05):
Manzi.

Speaker 2 (32:05):
By the way, do you have any fun interview stories?
Where is everyone like, gosh, she's a delight to hire
her on the spot. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
When I was eighteen, I it was interviewing for my
first job to be working at BJ's restaurants.

Speaker 7 (32:16):
You know, like I just graduated, never had a job,
and then.

Speaker 3 (32:19):
The guy literally flirted with me, thought I was cute,
and I got a serving job.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
No, experience.

Speaker 7 (32:25):
You know, no experience.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
You know what, Manzi, I don't blame you because when
you worked at restaurants, you know what, guys always thought.
They told guys, you can't be a waiter yet, you
have no experience. But it would always be a cute
girl that started and immediately a waitress.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
And that was you. Yeah, that was me.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
And I was like, hey, listen, I'd rather make tips
right away than be a host.

Speaker 7 (32:44):
So I'll take it.

Speaker 3 (32:45):
I don't take it all right, guys, We're gonna start
in the NBA because it was just announced that Cavaliers
Evan Mobley has won the twenty twenty four twenty twenty
five NBA Defensive Player of the Year.

Speaker 7 (32:55):
No Draymond Green, Evan Mobley has won it.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
Other NBA news, Kobe Bryant's Laker's debut jersey the first
one he ever wore.

Speaker 7 (33:04):
He wore it for media Day. He wore the first
one sold for seven million dollars at so the Buys.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
The jersey was actually sold at an auction in twenty
twelve for only one hundred and fifteen thousand, now seven
million dollars.

Speaker 2 (33:18):
Impressively, it is pretty impressive.

Speaker 3 (33:21):
Million, yeah, right, Like about thirteen years after the fact.

Speaker 7 (33:23):
Not too shabby. One game going on in baseball right now.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Royals Rockies. It's the second of the double header. Oils
are up to zero. Top of the fifth inning.

Speaker 7 (33:31):
The Giants just top the Brewers six to five.

The way tire mind should be. The draft about an
hour and twenty minutes away. Ashton Genty is wearing bedazzled crocs.

(33:55):
that absolutely.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
Track that yeah rich, Now, that's rich all day?

Speaker 7 (34:00):
See you wearing that. Travis Huenter is wearing a hot
pink blazer. I love it.

Speaker 3 (34:05):
Also, apparently, Roger Goodell has three cards for Travis Hunter,
one as a wide receiver, one as a defensive back,
and one for both. And it depends whoever drafts him
will decide what card Roger Goodell is gonna read.

Speaker 7 (34:18):
So he has three cards right now.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
Lastly, Shador Sanders Door Sanders has a custom room for
the draft tonight. You can see it on the Colorado
Buffalo's Instagram or other social media. But he has a
custom room and one of them has all the hats
for the teams, so whatever team picks them, he can
just grab the hat.

Speaker 7 (34:37):
But a custom made room for tonight's NFL draft, which
is at age.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
If he could have had a green screen, he could
have been an outer Space if he wanted to be.

Speaker 7 (34:46):
Does he seem like a green screen type of guy?

Speaker 2 (34:48):
I mean, but he could have been saved a lot
of money. That's actually the first person drafted in outer space.

Speaker 5 (34:53):
No, he doesn't want that back to you guys.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
Thank you, Yes, all right, MONSI have a great draft night,
you too, Go Clippers.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Do you see Jackson Dart? I think he was on
Saturn here.

Speaker 2 (35:06):
I am pull side a lot of again, a lot
of the players decided to not go to Green Bay
and decided to stay home, So we're going to see
a lot of that now. Listen, Danny g one of
the many Raiders fans that I've talked to today that
say they are scared that for the second year in
a row, who they have their eyes set on kind
of gets swooped out right from under them. Last year

(35:28):
it was oh, Michael Pennix Junior will drop to the Raiders.

Speaker 4 (35:31):
Wrong, damn you Falcons. But the negative turned into a
positive with Bowers falling out of their life.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Of course, I mean, you got Brock Bowers. But now
a lot of Raiders fans are like, oh man, you'll
get the running game, will get genty.

Speaker 4 (35:43):
I've been asking for gent since December on our network
because the Raiders missed Josh Jacobs so badly last year.
But now the news of the Jags wanting to make
a splash and an impact player, who are they talking about?

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Come on?

Speaker 2 (35:55):
And you know what the Raiders even put out on
social media, like the wide eye emoji, like, well, we'll
talk a little draft as we are an hour and

YouTube page again in just eight minutes. He's one of
those guys that for years, I feel like we've been,

(39:02):
you know, in contact on social media, and finally I
was like, dude, why do you come on over Promised?

Speaker 1 (39:06):
Hang on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
So KFC Barstool in about nine minutes, all right, Coch, Yeah, buddy,
hour and nine minutes from the NFL Draft. And I
know Danny said Raiders want Genty the same way last
year they wanted Michael Pennix Junior.

Speaker 1 (39:22):
You know, I have a.

Speaker 2 (39:23):
Clear visual of Danny g Like cheering about Pennix Junior,
like got a good I feel like you wrapped up
the show like a year ago today I did, Let's
go PENNI yes, yes, And I remember when it didn't happen.
I felt so disappointed for you, But they got bront
powers right, so you know that worked out just as good.
But you know it's uh, it is interesting because there's

(39:45):
always a couple of surprises.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Draft night, genty is who you want?

Speaker 2 (39:48):
A lot of speculation that the Patriots are going to
try to make a splash or Jacksonville or one of
the teams earlier than the Raiders, but we shall see.
I look at it this way. If you're a GM
or an owner of a team or the coach, do
you feel like you know how they always say, what
is a coach? What is a boss's worst job? And
our boss is that it's to us firing somebody. Firing

(40:09):
someone's the worst, especially when it's not firing, when it's
because it's a it's a happy and proud moment when
you when you get to sign somebody and hire them
and welcome them, it's a great moment.

Speaker 1 (40:18):
But the hard part is letting them go. The hard
part as a coach or.

Speaker 2 (40:21):
GM bringing someone in saying hey, we're gonna have to
let you go where you're sending you down to the minors,
or hey, in any corporate American job, like hey we're
doing budget cuts.

Speaker 1 (40:29):
I'm so sorry we have to make the big bucks.
You got to make those tough decisions.

Speaker 2 (40:33):
So what I'm thinking is tonight, tonight, that's the opposite
the joy. Imagine you're a GM, I'm a ninersent. You
don't think John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan they have such
pride and joy in saying yeah, Hello, Yeah. Forty nine
is wat you like you're making You're making dreams come true?

(40:54):
You know, thirty sounds thirty two times each round. That's
thirty two individ juwels whose lives are forever changed, and.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
The proudest moment.

Speaker 2 (41:03):
The GM who has to do all the dirty work
at the criticism from the fans and you know, let
players go make difficult cuts. This is a night of
honestly all joy. Thirty two names are going to be
called tonight. That's thirty two families that have forever changed.
And that's thirty two calls from a GM where he
actually feels good about it. And you're gonna hear it
all go down here in Fox Sports Radio. And I

(41:25):
really think, you know, Giants have the third overall pick
in the draft. I think they're going to be the story.
Have you heard have you heard stories of players that
are going to get drafted. They're friends, playing terrible pranks
on them, like calling them from no numbers on draft night.
That's yeah, that's the word. That's like next level. All Right,
have a great night, enjoy the draft. Over Promised coming

(41:46):
up in a few minutes with KFC from Barstool A
must listen. We'll see tomorrow a Riba there to you, baby,
see you in the over promised land.
