We took more calls on KAT and his inconsistency as a player.

Jerry starts with the sounds of the Mets beating the Dodgers in ten. Lindor led off the game with a home run and also had an RBI single. Charles Barkley was on with Dan Patrick talking about going from TNT to ESPN and how odd it’s been since TNT is trying to keep them to do a show while they are going to ESPN. Weird.

Peter Schwartz joins us to talk about resigning as GM of the Dragons of some arena football league called The Entertainment Football Association (ENTFLA). The team didn’t have helmets which seems important for a football club.

A caller asked if Boomer had a tearful goodbye when he retired from football. We wondered if Eddie will cry when he retires at next year’s Kickoff To Summer show. Larry in Indiana checks in and has Gio’s back if he has to fight Carl Banks.

Review of the Jerry Vs. Al debate about the focus of sports radio. Then Jerry gets to a Mets win and other baseball items.

Gio was in the news yesterday for calling Karl-Anthony Towns a ‘loser’. Carl Banks went after Gio for the take. He wasn’t talking about KAT the individual, he was referring to KAT the Knicks player in the playoffs. Gio said Banks is not very good at media and that was evident yesterday. We talked about KAT’s performance in the playoffs and why he was brought in. He had soft moments in big games where they should have gotten more out of him.

From 'Baseball Isn't Boring' (subscribe here): One year ago, the Mets were still considered a lost cause, having just executed a last-gasp team meeting to try and save their season. Next thing they knew, June served as a launching pad and an incredible season was reborn. Laura Albanese joined Bradfo to reflect on the turnaround, while also diving into her new existence as Mets beat writer for Newsday. There is also some great podcast talk.
