Boomer & Gio

Gregg Giannotti has had enough of the Aaron Boone criticism when it is never followed by any kind of praise. He says Boone's critics who also rip the Yankees' use of analytics need to be consistent in their arguments. Plus, Evan Roberts says vintage Gerrit Cole has returned, and the rest of the American League should be scared. Chris McMonigle calls for Brian Cashman to stack the deck with pitching if there isn't a significant bat available at the trade deadline, and Boomer and Gio wonder why Boone doesn't have better odds to win Manager of the Year.

Boomer Esiason and Gregg Giannotti ponder if Aaron Boone should be Manager of the Year due to all the injuries.

(44:58).

With Boomer out, Gio and Jerry kick off with MLB trade deadline fallout and fishy secrecy around Kyle Shanahan’s accident before slamming the Jets’ terrible QB backup plan. The guys dive into household TV habits, Macho Man nostalgia, Jerry's 2 a.m. alarm songs, and callers getting arrested for unpaid parking tickets. Packed with C-Lo updates spanning baseball highlights, an X crypto scam, and wild NFL soundbites from Baker Mayfield and Jeremy Shockey, the show wraps with a look back at Gio’s bad mustache and his weekend playing bass with Jimmy & The Parrots.

Boomer is out, so Gio and Jerry kick off with the MLB trade deadline and how a Dodgers move for Tarik Skubal could spark a lockout. C-Lo steps in with updates on Jazz Chisholm’s rundown and cramps, plus Jasson Dominguez oversliding a triple.

Finally, Rob Saleh is asked about Fireman Ed, Gio questions the Titans' coach, and fishy police secrecy surrounds the Kyle Shanahan accident.

The Jets are running a terrible backup plan behind Geno Smith, relying on fourth-round rookie Cade Klubnik, Bailey Zappe, and Brady Cook. C-Lo returns with updates on Cruz walking in the White Sox win in eleven, a pissed-off Aaron Boone, and Luis Robert Jr lifting the Mets past the Marlins. Plus, Mookie Wilson admits on the Carton show he didn't want to be up in big spots, and Gio claims Rami’s day off to see Mumford & Sons was a total weather bust.

Gio breaks down his household TV habits—including secretly finishing Netflix’s Toxic Love Story—before Jerry recalls Macho Man Slim Jim ads, Gio skips summer hot dogs, and compares wives to cadaver dogs. C-Lo returns with updates from Jets’ Minkah Fitzpatrick, Aaron Glenn on Frank Reich, Malik Nabers, Vic Fangio pleading the fifth, Nick Sirianni hyping the Eagles, and Evan Roberts calling camera speeding tickets cheating. Finally, the hour wraps on an X scam using fake podcast votes to steal accounts and sell crypto.

We start with Jerry’s 2 a.m. alarm songs, followed by what happens with unpaid parking tickets and callers who were actually arrested for them.

Finally, the Moment of the Day remembers Gio’s bad mustache, and the week wraps with Gio talking about playing bass with Jimmy & The Parrots over the weekend.

Minkah Fitzpatrick of the Jets on wanting the fans to be proud. Aaron Glenn said it’s a luxury to have Frank Reich there. Malik Nabers said he has high standards for himself. Vic Fangio took the fifth like Dr. Fauci at the press conference. We heard Nick Sirianni trying to pump up the Eagles players. We heard Evan Roberts talking about getting speeding tickets, all from cameras, which he thinks is cheating.
