Hey everyone, it's Boomer and Gio, and if you're into New York sports or you want straight talk about what's really going on in the sports world, Boomer and Geo is your show. We're covering it all. Yankees wins, Giants drama, national headlines, and whatever chaos the day brings on the field and all. No filler, no filters, just real conversation. And believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning. We don't hold back and we don't waste your time.

We get to what actually matters.

That's Bummer. just real conversation and believe me, plenty of laughs every weekday morning.

We don't hold back and we don't waste your time.

We get to what actually matters.

That's Boomer and Gio and you can listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your pods.

We have a lot of contributors to the show like IRO, does the NBA, Peter Gammon, who does a lot of baseball and has since the days of dog, and Kim Jones, who does a lot of shows here, and also does a lot of NFL stuff. You see her on the NFL network, and she contributes to the shows many time, and she joins me now. Kim, welcome. How are you? Mike, following Bernie and Straw is not easy, but thank you for including me. Well, also, that two guys you're very familiar with, so you've been around those guys a lot with your years with the Yankees, and now obviously you're many years with the Giants and football, so you have been a very good contributor to this program and to the station, and you've got a lot of stuff that you do doing shows and everything else, so you have been a big contributor to the station.

Well, Mike, you're gracious. I think of a couple of things when I think about the fan anniversary today and you in particular.

You and Mad Dog used to talk about me. My first year on, yes, 2005, I was new to baseball, new to TV.

It was rough. I was not good. I had to improve, and I knew it. And would drive to the Bronx mic listening to you and Chris talk about me on post game the night before, and it truly

helped. I don't say any of this with anything other than gratitude because I had to get better.

I wasn't very good. And that was a pivotal time in my career. I could have failed. And I really

do thank you for that. I think about Penn State,

which is ongoing, but you and I had many hours of conversation.

We did a great job during the Penn State.

I mean, you did an incredible job of being connected to it.

You got stuff no one else got.

You did an incredible job during Penn State.

I mean, we did a great job during Penn State, and that was because of you,

because your connections to the paternal family and to the school, and, I mean, that was an incredible amount of stuff that a lot of other people didn't do. So that was because of you. You did an great job with that. You really did. Thank you, Mike. I think of turned my mic on. My heart almost beat out of my chest at that moment, it was fun, It had lived on, and, you know, your mic was turned on as it should have been. And I think of Odell Beckham, Jr. in our conversation last week that got an awful lot of attention. But Mike, I think back, you once told me that you didn't think you could yell at me. I don't know if you remember that conversation, and that in and of itself is not that important, but you yelled at me, Mike, last week, and it was awesome. And I would have that conversation with you again if we do before December. That would be absolutely terrific. But I think of you a lot when I think of my time here in the New York metropolitan area, and I thank you so much for it. Well, listen, like I said, you've been a big contributor, and we're not going to get everybody on today, but we need to get the people on that we can. So we appreciate you giving us a couple of minutes. And like I said, you'll hear Kim doing a lot of shows on a fan all summer, and she's doing a lot more of that, and obviously has been a big contributor to this show and to all the fans.

So thank you for coming on today.

I appreciate it.
