Hour 2:

Yesterday Boomer & Gio golfed in a charity event for Winters Bros. Boomer said Gio slowed down the round of golf but he said that’s not true. Boomer said Gio took a bunch of shots at him when he was doing live auction items. Gio’s ‘Top 5 Moments’ didn’t include Boomer. A caller said it took him 3 hours to get to the game, then someone was in his seat. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Brandon Nimmo dropping a ball in center that led to the Yankees winning run. Max Scherzer was terrible and Drew Smith was thrown out of the game for sticky stuff without ever throwing a pitch. The Las Vegas Golden Knights won the NHL Stanley Cup. Daniel Jones has no swag but he’s a grinder. There’s an issue between Steff Diggs and the Buffalo Bills which may also involve Josh Allen. Shannon Sharpe said goodbye to Skip Bayless and he cried. In the final segment of the hour, the NY Rangers have hired Peter Laviolette as their Head Coach. He wasn’t Boomer’s first choice, but he was his second choice.

Hour 1:

The Yankees beat the Mets last night and it was a perfect example of what the Mets season is right now. Max Scherzer had another bad start and couldn’t get out of the fourth inning. And then Francisco Lindor struck out in the 8th inning with the bases loaded. That’s where they are right now. Scherzer’s best days are behind him. Lindor’s best days are behind him. Gio is going to emotionally detach as a Mets fan and will not allow them to ruin his Summer. He may emotionally reattach at some point and he’s earned the right to do that as a longtime Mets fan. Gio said Max Scherzer will ride off into the sunset leaving orange and blue rubble behind. Gio has had a great 2023 so far and he is not going to let the Mets ruin it. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with highlights from last night’s Subway Series. The Mets blew a 5-1 lead and Scherzer was terrible. DJ and Stanton homered for the Yanks. Clay Holmes got out of an 8th inning jam. Max Scherzer talked about struggling with the slider. Lindor talked about striking out in a huge spot. Mets reliever Drew Smith was tossed for sticky hands without ever throwing a pitch. The Las Vegas Golden Knights won their first Stanley Cup. They have been in existence for six years. Daniel Jones met the media and wouldn’t comment on the Saquon stuff. What is going on with Steff Diggs and the Buffalo Bills? In the final segment of the hour, we talked more about the Subway Series. And not to take anything away from the Yankees win, but the real story is how Scherzer and Lindor have not lived up to their contracts.

Hour 1:

Jerry Recco and Sal Licata are in for Boomer & Gio today. The Subway Series starts tonight in Citi Field and there doesn’t seem to be much anticipation for the game because of injuries and how the teams have been playing. Jerry expects Max Scherzer to pitch well tonight. Sal thinks the Mets will make the playoffs this season. Sal said the Mets highest paid players ‘aren’t doing squat’. How does Giancarlo Stanton not play when Aaron Judge is already out of the lineup? Sal wonders if Pete Alonso was aware of Evan’s ‘pieces of crap’ quote about Scherzer and Verlander while they were at the comedy show last night. With Jerry hosting this morning, Peter Schwartz is here with his first update of the day, but first Jerry tells us that cornhole bean bags cost $150 a pair. Peter starts with audio from the Denver Nuggets winning their first NBA title. Nikola Jokic won the Finals MVP. Billy McKinney of the Yankees talks about facing Scherzer and Verlander. Sal thinks the Mets are really feeling the pressure and they are making more mental mistakes. Peter once went to a Jets game in L.A. and Raiders fans kept getting in his face. Sal and Peter battle over the fact that Sal put an Islanders jersey on while in the owner’s box. In the final segment of the hour, we took calls from Mets fans who don’t think they are a playoff team even though Sal thinks they are. 

Hour 2:

While driving through SoHo, Sal said he saw some really elaborate nice looking graffiti. He said he never once saw somebody doing graffiti so he wonders when they do it. We also talked about getting involved or not getting involved if somebody is in trouble on the subway. Sal doesn’t like viral videos that have any disrespect in them. Peter Schwartz returns for an update but first Jerry tells us about a pitcher at Stanford who threw 156 pitches in a game. Nolan Ryan once threw 235 pitches in a game. Peter starts with audio from last night’s Denver Nuggets NBA Finals win. Nuggets fans were lighting off fireworks in a crowd. Nikola Jokic loved proving the doubters wrong. Shohei Ohtani hit two more HRs last night. Sal said the Mets will be the highest bidder for Ohtani but he may want to play somewhere else for less. In the final segment of the hour, we talked more about pitch counts. 

Hour 3:

We have a bunch of clips of WFAN hosts losing their minds on callers and Sal ranks them in order of angriness. Peter returns for an update and starts with the Nuggets winning the NBA Title. We heard from Nikola Jokic, the Finals MVP. Sal shares his struggles with mulching. The Subway Series gets underway tonight in Citi Field. Sal said we are all zombies: on our phones, on weed, drinking. In the final segment of the hour, Jerry wonders where Sal was when Luis Castillo dropped the pop up in the Subway Series. Sal was there at the stadium with Mike Francesa. Sal also had to drive down to Englishtown NJ to watch his kid play. It was 2 ½ hours each way. Sal wants to live a life of convenience and does not want to do anything he doesn’t want to do anymore. Jerry wants Sal to choose between heartbreaking sports team losses or doing inconvenient things in life. Sal said he is taking his independence back. 

Hour 4:

The Subway Series gets underway tonight in Queens. Sal doesn’t like the 2-game series instead of a 3-game series. Unless there’s a 2-game sweep, it takes away from it because there’s no winner or loser. The Yankees have not played terribly, they are a number of games over .500, but they play in a very competitive division. Sal said the game still means something to the fans even though Judge and Alonso are not playing. Peter returns for an update and starts with the Nuggets winning their first NBA championship. The Subway Series gets underway tonight in Queens. In the final segment of the show, Jerry goes through some concerts at MSG and he’s surprised at what’s sold out and what tickets are available. Pat Sajak is retiring from The Wheel of Fortune.

Sal does not want to be the victim of a Tik Tok prank.

Sal wonders when people do the graffiti he sees in NYC as he’s never seen anyone actually doing the graffiti live.
