Summary

Sid Rosenberg catches up with sports radio legend Joe Benigno for a lively conversation covering football, music, and the New York Mets. They kick things off reminiscing about training camps and past Giants Super Bowl moments, then dive into a passionate discussion about Bob Dylan, including Sid’s rave review of the new Dylan biopic and Benigno's memories of Dylan's cultural impact—though both agree Dylan is terrible live. The two then shift to baseball, ripping into the Yankees' broadcast team and the Mets' ongoing struggles, from weak starting pitching to bad coaching calls. The segment ends with laughs about politics, fashion, and an upcoming rally in Seaside Heights, where Sid promises to put Joe on stage. It’s classic Sid and Joe—equal parts sports, nostalgia, and unfiltered opinions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
