Boomer & Gio Podcast (WHOLE SHOW)
Hour 1
We are live from the Blue Wire Studios at the Wynn in Las Vegas. Boomer is drinking a White Claw. He thought it was an energy drink. Boomer said nobody has it better than the B&G team in Vegas. The studio is right in the hotel we are staying at. Patrick MAHOMES’ dad got another DUI, his third. Will this have any impact on the Chiefs this week? Probably not. It’s a distraction, but it’s early in the week, and it’s something Patrick MAHOMES has dealt with in the past. Dua Lipa opened the Grammys last night. Boomer didn’t like that Taylor Swift promoted a new album while accepting a Grammy and didn’t do a ‘go Chiefs’. Boomer seems very bothered that Taylor didn’t thank Travis or reference the Chiefs at the Grammys. Jerry is here for his first update of the day but first we talked about Spike Eskin and how he’s in a ‘lame duck spot’ since he’s leaving. Gio and Jerry golfed yesterday right after they checked in. Jerry starts with Taylor Swift’s first acceptance speech, her ‘13TH Grammy’. Boomer said her speech was antiseptic, like ‘World War II Listerine’. Ben Simmons will miss tonight’s game due to ‘back maintenance’. FIFA announced the World Cup Final in 2026 will be at MetLife Stadium. In the final segment of the hour, the Giants blocked the Seahawks from interviewing Mike Kafka for the offensive coordinator position. Boomer said this is a smart move by Brian DABOLL. You have to keep some stability with the coaching staff. Boomer could see the Seahawks drafting Michael Penix. Rex Hogan was let go by the Jets as assistant GM, which makes us think he was the leak in the building. Boomer was told that Arthur Blank offered Bill BELICHICK the job and Bill said ‘no’.
Hour 2
We are live from the Blue Wire Studios at the Wynn Hotel here in Las Vegas. Looking at the Chiefs and Niners, it really shows you how far off the Jets and the Giants are from these two teams. The Giants don’t have a single weapon on offense and who knows what’s going on with their quarterback. Boomer reminds us the Jets only lost to the Chiefs by a FG. Zach Wilson played well in that game, which is why Boomer thinks the Vikings will want him. The Jets gave up a ton of rushing yards to the Chiefs that game. Both the Chiefs and Niners like to run the ball. As good as Brock PURDY has been, he is not in the same discussion as Patrick MAHOMES. Next year there will be no Tom Brady and no Bill Belichick for the first time in forever, although Brady will be in the booth at Fox. Jerry returns for an update but first we talked about the drinking on our flight out here. The flight attendant asked Boomer if it was his first Super Bowl. Boomer can’t believe we didn’t tip the flight attendant. Jerry has audio from some of the players at the Pro Bowl Games. Would the Raiders trade for Justin Fields? We are taping a segment with Drew Barrymore on Wednesday. In the final segment of the hour, one of the guys working for us went to the weed store. Boomer is not a weed guy so he’s not interested.
Hour 3
Jim HARBAUGH is in the news. There are reports that SAQUON Barkley is on the top of his free agent list. What will the Giants do with Barkley? They can use the tag again on him. Gio thinks it’s best for both the Giants and SAQUON to move on from each other, and the Chargers could be a great landing spot for him. Money will be a big factor of course. Gio said the Giants are on the same track as the Jets were in their last year with Todd Bowles. The Giants are coming into Brian Daboll’s third year with a sub par roster. Making the players actually hurt them with the rebuild. Boomer rattled off the good teams in the NFC for next year. DABOLL is going to have to ‘coach his ass off’ according to Boomer. If the Giants get off to a bad start, every call to WFAN will be about hiring Bill Belichick. Maybe that’s why Belichick turned down the job in Atlanta. We also talked about Caleb Williams and the Chicago Bears. His camp came out and said they are not anti-Bears and would go there if drafted there. Why did the Bears keep Matt Eberflus? Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from some players at the Pro Bowl Games. Patrick MAHOMES Sr was arrested for his third DUI. Jalen Brunson talked about the Knicks winning streak coming to an end against the Lakers. There were also a bunch of rumors about LeBron James and the Knicks. St. John’s played UConn over the weekend with John Minko and Brandon Tierney on the call. Former porn star Lisa Ann got thrown out of the Matt Rife show and was arrested for some reason. In the final segment of the hour, the first episode of the final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm aired last night. Larry is wearing lady glasses in this episode, just like Phil Simms. There was a prior ‘lady glasses’ episode of Seinfeld with George. Boomer said Brock Purdy should be the story for this Super Bowl. A guy who was picked last in the draft against one of the greats, Patrick MAHOMES. Niners are favored by 2.5 right now. Hour 4
Ravens TE Mark Andrews helped a woman having a medical emergency on a plane. It was a blood sugar situation and the woman was diabetic. Boomer wonders why he was on a Southwest flight with all the money he’s earned. He’s a large man and there’s no first class on those flights. Maybe he’s frugal. Gio was listening to the Theo Von podcast and found that the phrase ‘blowing smoke up your Ass’ was something people used to do to try and help people with gut issues. We also talked about coffee enemas. Gio said he almost took a suppository to win a weight loss contest. Gio has nothing to do out here, with no family here. It’s raining so there’s no golf today. Boomer was asked to measure his forehead for a temporary tattoo situation for the NFL Today. It’s 6 inches long and 3 inches wide. How big is Peyton Manning’s forehead? Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with audio from some of the players at the Pro Bowl Games. If Rutgers beats Maryland, Jerry gets $1,000. If Maryland wins, Jerry has to do a gummy on the show. This will all go down on Thursday’s show. The Moment of The Day involves Gio, and what he’ll do on rainy days in Vegas when he can’t golf. In the final segment of the show, last year’s Super Bowl week was dominated by the NBA trade deadline. Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving were traded in back to back days. Thursday, February 8th is the trade deadline. Could the Knicks and Nets make a deal?
