| 0:00.0 | Hey, we got to believe listeners. You can find us every Monday and Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Today I sat down with Greg Gianotti, Gio from WFAN. And I think as the podcast develops here, we're talking Mets baseball, but this is, this is not just Mets baseball, |
| 0:22.2 | this is a Mets fan podcast. |
| 0:24.2 | And as a Mets fan, the first thing I do every morning, I wake up and I put on Boomer and GEO, |
| 0:29.7 | and I listen to those guys talk about the Mets and everything else going on in New York sports. |
| 0:34.2 | So to me, WFAN and the New York Mets are forever intertwined and, you know, for the longest |
| 0:40.3 | time, literally as they were on the station. But even now, as they're on a different channel, |
| 0:44.8 | it's still tons of Mets fan personalities over there on that station. And to me, I can't even |
| 0:52.4 | separate the two. So we had G-O- win. We did talk a little bit of Mets, |
| 0:56.3 | but honestly, this was much more about him and his life as a host over at WFAN. We got some |
| 1:01.9 | breaking news about the Jets as we recorded. We discussed the lottery because part of being a Mets fan |
| 1:07.8 | is also just the entire sports culture surrounding it. |
| 1:12.3 | So as we're all rooting for Zion and we're dealing with Jets uncertainty, |
| 1:17.6 | we're doing that all while we watch the Mets. |
| 1:19.9 | So, you know, we'll get back to our baseball talk for sure. |
| 1:23.1 | There's plenty to discuss. |
| 1:24.8 | But I thought it was a super interesting conversation. |
| 1:28.3 | We chopped it up for well over an hour. |
| 1:30.6 | So anybody who's been a diehard Mets fan and grew up with the New York sports culture |
| 1:35.6 | surrounding it, you know WFAN, you love WFAN, and you got Gio who's got one of the most |
| 1:42.0 | interesting tales of all having to replace Craig Carton, |
| 1:45.7 | now feuding with Mike Francesa and being one of the Mets fan voices over there at the biggest sports radio station, you know, maybe ever. |
| 1:55.6 | So it's KFC and Gio here on We Gotta Believe. |
