Overpromised with Covino & Rich

Dexter premiered on Showtime 20 years ago today, so Covino and Rich each pick a Mount Rushmore of TV characters from the last 20 years, one comedy spot required. They agree on Dexter Morgan and Saul Goodman and split on the rest, with Tony Soprano, Leon Black, Ted Lasso and Kenny Powers all making a list. Then the guys accuse Sonny Gray of hiding pine tar on his neck in the wild card loss to the Yankees, which sends them through the all-time busted moments, from Joe Niekro's emery board to Dennis Rodman's "she fell from the ceiling" excuse. Drake Maye lands in the Fart Corner, and Rich gives his Week 5 NFL picks in Dicky Doo's Dope Picks.

Tom Brady said "piss missile" and "oh sh*t" on the same Fox broadcast this week, then apologized to the grandmas watching at home, and Covino and Rich are convinced nobody was actually offended. They run that theory through Will Flemming's call for the Red Sox to drill Austin Wells and Arch Manning's apology to Holly Rowe, and ask who is really calling networks to complain. The episode opens with Fury vs Joshua finally set for December 11 in Cardiff, which sends C&R through the matchups we never got, from Whitaker vs Mayweather and Tyson vs Butterbean to Heathcliff vs Garfield, Brady vs Rodgers in a Super Bowl, and Jordan vs Hakeem in the Finals. Rich closes with Dicky Doo's Dope Picks, including a Chargers and Seahawks teaser, Jameis Winston and the Giants, and a 49ers pick of the week that has him promising to wear a cardinal costume every day until his birthday if Arizona pulls it off.

Mets prospect Mitch Voit went viral this week because the internet is convinced a man that good looking has to be AI generated. He isn't. That sends Covino and Rich into a full episode about names and fakes, starting with Jaylen Waddle calling Bo Nix "Tua" in a Broncos huddle, then working through Trump's run at Tua Tagovailoa, the White House introduction that produced "Mike McGwire and Sammy Susser," Flavor Flav greeting Miley Cyrus as Gwen Stefani, John Travolta's "Adele Dazeem," and the interview where Rich called Ice Cube "Ice-T" to his face and waited a decade for forgiveness. Then they play Real or AI with a shoplifting J.Lo lookalike, two lightning strikes, an inflatable ocean suit, and a jet ski wipeout that is unfortunately authentic. Rich closes with his NFL teaser card for the week and a Mets season defined by a billion dollars of infielders dropping the same pop up #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Matt Leinart grew up without travel ball, year-round showcases, or a coach telling an eight-year-old to pick one sport, and now he has two boys in the middle of all of it. The Big Noon Kickoff analyst joins Steve Covino and Rich Davis on Overpromised on behalf of DraftKings Gameday with a blunt message for parents: if a coach tells your kid he can only play one thing, get away from that coach, because the cream rises to the top eventually no matter what sport a kid lands on. It turns into a full throwback episode from there. Leinart gets into the 6U All-Star grind, how the Throwbacks podcast with Jerry Ferrara came together over one long phone call, the one social media trend his wife still cannot get him to do, and the theory that you cannot really know who you are dating until you have watched them survive a football season. Then Covino and Rich open the 80s and 90s vault for a crush draft that runs from Alyssa Milano and Mona to Samantha Fox, Kim Fields, Miss Elizabeth, Elisabeth Shue and the number one answer on the board, before closing on Carrie Underwood's 14th year of Sunday Night Football and the first NFL bet of the season.  Overpromised is the weekly uncensored bonus pod from the Covino and Rich Show, weekdays 5-7 PM ET on Fox Sports Radio. #FSR #CRSHOW #OverpromisedSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Two weeks out from kickoff and the news won't cooperate. Disney and the NFL teamed up on the Champions Collection, so Covino and Rich go through every one of the 32 team characters, from the Bills getting the Beast to the Colts getting Horace Horsecollar, and argue about whether a grown man without kids can actually wear this stuff in public. Then it gets uglier. Jed York, the owner of the 49ers, got picked up in a prostitution sting outside a trailer park in East Palestine, Ohio, with $140 and a Yankees shirt. Rich defends him, and the argument is sharper than it sounds: if the culture celebrates sex work on one hand, it doesn't get to torch the customer on the other. Covino isn't fully sold. Harvey Levin gets dragged into it. The one word doing all the work is consensual. And a second grade teacher in Atlanta gave the guys their new favorite idea. She built a Fart Corner in her classroom so kids could pass gas without leaving class. Covino heard it differently, decided it should be a punishment, and now Overpromised has a weekly segment. Caleb Williams, Jed York, Deshaun Watson and Enes Kanter are the first four in. Overpromised is the weekly uncensored bonus pod from Covino & Rich.
