I go way back with him because he goes way back with my rabbi, my television rabbi. Man smart enough to have hired me twice, Steve Bornstein. The old president of ESPN and the man who launched NFL Network, my body bully.
You love when I do my Bornstein invitation. But he and Jake go way back. I'm assuming it's because Steve put his show on ESPN, I imagine. I don't know. I'm assuming. We all know the problems with that. But we'll talk about that.
You said Jake was coming to America too, right? Yeah. Okay. Lots to talk about with him when he's coming out here in about 18 minutes time. It'll be a great conversation. 844-204 Rich, number to dial.
We'll take your phone calls in a second, but I have a top five. Oh, I haven't done one of these in a while. I feel like David Letterman.
If I didn't have one, would it sound like this? Okay. Top five quarterbacks in a better situation now than they were in last year presented by Hyundai. Hit it. High five. One, two, three, four, five. Rich's top five.
Top five quarterbacks in a better situation now than they were in last year. Number five on the list. It's your guy. Okay. Okay. It is.
No, I'm saying Dakota Prescott. I like that. Oh, really? Why not? Why?
First of all, he's healthy. Yeah. Second of all, that's George Pickens over there. Honestly. That's why.
Interesting. They got, they got, they got their kid blue from Texas. How can you look shocked at that? I am shocked that he's on this list.
Good TJ. I mean, George Pickens there, that alone. Now you have Pickens and CD Lam as opposed to the rotation of wide receiver twos.
We have now we've got a one beat. I'm assuming Brian Schottenheimer is keeping the whole system of McCarthy. He's been keeping the McCarthyism system. I don't, I don't, I'm assuming that's part of it. You're assuming Pickens isn't going to be an insane person next year. Even if he is insane and he puts up the stats that he put up, I think still a decent, if Mike Tomlin is willing to get rid of you, I would be concerned. That's fine.
Well, I mean, listen, pal, you, okay. Antonio Brown was one cent away and he won a championship with Brady and you took him first. Well, same new England played one game or was it after did the Patriots take him after he took his shirt off and went off the field.
No, no, no, no. He was with the Patriots for a hot second and lasted one game. I got it.
And he scored a touchdown that game and then Brady took him back anyway and they won a championship. Right? Yeah.
Am I wrong? Anyway, long story short, Dax in a better spot. He really is. I agree. All right. Number four is your guy. He should be on this list and higher.
How rich I will get it. I don't get it. Drake May is in a better place now. Are you kidding me? They got the coach, right? They got the offensive coordinator, right?
That's the fond digs out there. That's Trevion Anderson back there. There's a coach that drafted. They draft, they drafted Will Campbell. He got his tail of the one right for the system. He used that to use that analogy. MVP incoming.
Okay. But yeah, Drake May's in a better spot now than he was last year. You don't have to change places.
The places around you could be changing. And the Patriots drafted well. They free agent did well. They got the right coach. I mean, Matt Jones's best year was when Josh McDaniels is drawing up the place.
Sure was. You know, that's not Alex van Pelt walking through that door. It's not Matt Patricia walking through that door.
Thank God. By the way, that's like waving a red cape in front of a bull. I don't want to get that fired up. Yeah, but I know while you're already fired up, let me just say the word Joe judge to you. Joe judge.
Okay. Man, Drake May is in a better spot. Number three on the list. I mentioned your guy. I mentioned your guy. Justin Fields is a. And the reason why I'm putting Justin Fields above you two guys is because it's your dad was a starter there.
No, no. Dak was a starter. Yeah. Right. Drake May was a starter at this point last year. Justin Fields was less like, hey, listen, we were there to you last year at this time. Last.
Don't don't forget. Two Januaries ago, people were saying someone's going to get up on number one for him. And it wound up being a fifth in next year's draft to deal with that. And then Russell Wilson is installed as the starter. He had no institutional skin in the game in Pittsburgh.
Zero. And then he gets the gig and then he winds up losing the gig, even though he won four of his first six games. The Jets are basically saying, you are the man. And by the way, you recognize your number one receiver from college, don't you? And that's Breece Hall behind you, you know?
Okay, so he's in a much better spot than he was last year at this point. Now I got two more guys that feel left out. No, no, no. I'll explain why, you know, Geno's not on this list. Well, I agree.
I mean, Brock Bowers is there for him, but DK Metcalf and Jackson Smith and Jigba isn't walking through that door just yet in Las Vegas. I should get these there, though. Okay. I mean, you can make a case. All right. I don't mean to feel left out, but I'm good now. You're left out. Number two on this list.
I'm going to say it. Jaden Daniels is in a better situation. Hold on. Hold on. Deebo and Laramie Tunsel. Deebo and Laramie Tunsel. You're assuming Deebo's got anything left. Oh, I am assuming that. Are you going to push back on all these?
Because these are really good. Jaden Daniels is in a better position. He's in a better situation now. He got to keep his OC. Normally those guys get poached. True.
They didn't change a thing except better protection, better weapons. Second year. Absolutely.
Let's go. And number one on the list is without a doubt, Caleb Williams. First of all, he's going to have a coach who's going to tell him what to watch on film.
And he's probably going to sit next to him while doing it. And Ben Johnson knows how to. He's got his head coach is the OC. That's what you want when you're a quarterback.
That's nice. That's what you want. That's what Bo Nix got.
I mean, Jaden Daniels still has his OC, but it's not the HC, which, you know, works for him. But Caleb isn't going to have a hey, Caleb, that's the film room. Make yourself a sandwich. Figure out what you want to do.
Going when you want. You know, the film's in there. You want to flip it on. There's the clicker over there. I don't know how it works. There's the clicker. I don't know. I think I think that arrow means rewind.
This have to be on Channel three. I can't believe that's what's happening in his credit. He said nothing from the lights up when you're done. He was telling his dad before the draft, I love Kevin O'Connell, which, by the way, astute.
Yeah. And he's like, I don't want to go to the parents because they don't know what to do. What they do with quarterbacks. They're astute. Said, I don't want to fight the NFL in the system. Dude, then he goes through the process and the process is clearly not working out. He's getting his ass beat.
He says nothing, which is astute. And now it's all set up. And Colston Loveland is going to be his BFF. They hit the offensive line without a doubt.
The number one quarterback in a better situation now than he was in at this point last year. You have one more. I did not. That's right. Whoa, whoa. I didn't see that.
I did not see that. It's Justin Herbert. I mean, it's Justin Herbert. Hey, listen, man, with all due respect to the Gus Bus and J.K. J.K. Dobbins. Oh, boy, that kid O'Marian Hampton and Najee Harris is a much better running situation. Ladidi year two. They drafted well.
They're going to protect better. And on top of it, there's only one coach in the National Football League who's waking up at three in the morning and thinking this about their quarterback. Woke up the other day and said, I got to get Justin Herbert to the Hall of Fame.
Oh, must get Justin Herbert to the Hall of Fame. You woke up and said that? Yeah. Yeah. It's just one of those things that you wake up and kind of like three, three thirty four in the morning. Right. And sometimes that's when your best ideas come.
Yeah, I know. You kind of process that. And that that would mean winning a couple of Super Bowls. And and there'd be a lot of it'd be a lot of people would benefit from that. So that's that's a worthy goal.
And I think I think it's necessary that we get him, you know, surrounded with as many good football players to his level as possible. Have you ever said those words to Justin Herbert? I'm going to get you to the Hall of Fame or I want to do that.
No, I haven't. I was just I was really you're the first person. I'll take it. Or the ceiling is the first entity you ever said it to. I imagine three in the morning. You're just saying that was the first day. It's just that was when. So, yeah, let's then speak it into existence. So let's let's do it. Yeah, baby. Yeah, baby. Only quarterback in the league who's got a coach saying that about him. Well, publicly. OK, that's my top five list.
Everybody presented by Hyundai, the all new all electric Hyundai IONIQ 9 space for up to seven range for miles. How great is the AFC West going to be this year, Matt? Oh, man. OK. The Chiefs have a chip on their shoulder.
I don't care what you have to say. They've got a chip on their shoulder. They've got their asses beat in the Super Bowl and everybody's going to be saying it's time to go get them.
They were 15 and two last year. The Broncos, you know, we could make a case for a quarterback that's in a better position now than last year. Oh, don't say Patrick Mahal. No, Bo Nix. OK, you can make that case. Lamar Jackson, Josh Allen. He's making the case. He's making the case for Geno Smith. I didn't put him there because I don't think the receiving corps is as good as what was sitting back in Seattle.
But he does have a head coach who clearly knows him and believes in him. And, you know, Jim Harbaugh making, having press conferences like this, right? The AFC West is just going to, I wish that was the hard knocks division.
I know the NFC is not too shabby. Plus Pete's back, man. Pete's back. Did you see his press conference or I believe it was Thursday.
OK. All right. We got our greatest hits. Jim Brockmire once upon a time came on the Rich Eisen podcast. Podcast a long time ago. Before we were a show.
The Rich Eisen podcast. He called Pete Carroll the world's, what, the world's oldest teenager. Now that Dick Clark has passed on.
That's what he said. Now that Dick Clark has passed on. Yeah.
And he's only gotten older since then and younger. This is Pete Carroll chopping it up with the media on Thursday in Vegas. What's your preseason philosophy when it comes to the use of the players? Can fans expect the ones and the twos out there? Every game's a championship game. That's the only way we know how to look at it. How do you feel about Ash and Gente's development so far for rookie running backs?
Is that learning curve a pass block game? You know, I really like that stance he's in, you know? He's doing great. He really is. He's right on point with everything that we're doing. He's studying really hard.
He's been really diligent about all aspects. How do you take that next step? How does he take that next step? Did you see the catch he made today? When the ball got tipped and they called it, they waved it off. We had to go up top and they gave him the catch. The commissioner stepped in and gave him the catch on that one. From the moment he stepped on the field, he did everything you could possibly ask of him.
Study habits, his work habits, his focus on a regular basis. He's making the catches and the plays. Gino already knows who's out there. He knows where 89 is and he's found him a ton of times already. He just makes himself so available. He's a big part of the offense for sure. Chip knows he's out there too. Sure how hands-on you are with Gino out here, but how do you think you and him have really just picked up where you left off from Seattle?
We didn't get along at all. I feel really like we're connected at the hip. He's an elite quarterback in the league. What he brings to us is great confidence. He brings to me, I know that we're going to get great play out of his spot. The league decided to keep the coach in today. You guys do have the Eagles on the schedule.
I guess your thoughts on the rule in general and playing them this year. Yeah, good choice. It's a good choice.
Good choice to do that. Ladies and gentlemen, Pete Carroll. That's my coach right there. You've got to love it.
Just a breath of fresh air. Tone down the energy, Pete. You know, what he's talking about with Ashton Gente, he's clearly hearing the headlines. He's clearly attuned to what he's talking about because Ashton Gente mentioned, I believe it was on Kay Adams' show, right? Where he mentioned that Chip Kelly's trying to get him to change his pre-snap stance.
It's called the Michael Myers stance because he just stands straight up like he's coming for you. He's going to wreck your world as the serial killer running back. And they're trying to get him into a more traditional stance. A lot of people are saying, what are you trying to mess with success? This kid was your top draft choice for a reason. He ran for 19 million yards for a reason.
Why are you trying to change it? I don't know because Chip Kelly and Pete might know a thing or two. Yeah, really good at offensive backs. They might know a thing or two about it. But Pete having fun with it. He's making reference to it. He's up to speed. Pete, he hears, he sees, he watches, he knows. Or people filling him in on the important stuff.
He might be like, what are they talking about? What's this thing here? Oh, yeah. AFC West is going to be great. Put up the Raiders schedule.
No, no, no, no, no. I'm not ready for that yet. All right. But just put it up.
Just put it up. The Raiders schedule. I can't wait for it, man.
It's just going to be a ton of fun. Well, they're starting out 0-1, which is a bummer. Well, because they're taking on the Patriots in New England first. Is that going to be a Fox game? Is Tom showing up? I doubt it. Is he allowed to call Raider games? Hold on, man.
Let me just see what... I think the week one game for... I don't have the week by week schedule. 16-0, man.
I put that away. Week one, Fox is going to be at... The early game? I don't know what they're going to have. Probably be Giants, Commanders, Titans and Broncos. Niners and Seahawks. Fox doesn't have the big, huge boomer game, but it's a CBS game.
He won't be there. And then it's going to be the Monday nighter where Mike North, who helped make up the schedule for the NFL, said the reason why the Chargers are in Vegas in week two, as opposed to a home game coming back from Brazil, which is what they like to do for teams traveling like that internationally, is because Chris Brown has SoFi booked and they got the closest road game that they could possibly give for the Chargers from Los Angeles. That's why they're on the Monday niner. But right away, the what's your deal, bro game. You know what I mean? Like, here we go. At Washington.
That's your deal, bro. Man, remember that? Max Crosby trying to keep Jayden Daniels from running all over the place. Chicago, Bears fan was drooling over Ashton Gente. Here he comes. Here come the Bears and Caleb Williams into Vegas. Talk about USC alums taking on Pete Carroll. At Indianapolis, home for Tennessee. Then they're at Kansas City. By week, Travis Hunter comes to Vegas. At Denver on a Thursday night.
Sean Payton and Pete Carroll. Dallas on a Monday night. Raiders being good is good for the National Football League.
The autumn wind, man, is a pirate. Let's go. I'm really fired up and then at Philadelphia, right? At Houston, the AFC West can be lit. And the Raiders being good is good for business.
It would be fun. Just good for business. 844-204, Rich number to dial. If you're on hold, stand hold. We'll take your calls before we get out of Dodge here for the Memorial Day weekend.

Hugh Hefner and Barbie Benton at the mansion right and I'll never forget on my answering machine I picked up a message you know back in the day he used to have that little box he used to go you know you hear and then the machine would play back messages yes it was a message from Ted Turner there was an article on me in People magazine yeah I was training Terry guard Priscilla Presley Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford they said when Spielberg you know when Jake box yes Spielberg Presley and Ford jump right and it was you know People magazine used to be that was the Bible this is yes and I got a message from Ted Turner said I have a new cable network called cable news network yes and and I would like you to do a fitness show because I want to make the network more family-friendly and I was not interested in becoming Jake Lalanne because a lot of the people that were training yeah we're putting me in TV shows and movies you know and it was just it's been a dream I'll tell you that riches you know I went to the mansion I trained these guys and after the workout I said to half I said you know this guy Ted Turner he says I absolutely do he's terrific and I said he wants me to do a

television shows I did the first original soundtrack to an exercise video you know in 1984 mm-hmm it was called body by Jake and we had artists like the great Bobby Caldwell who had a big hit in the 70s you won't do for love did a song called don't quit Michael some bellow who did a song called maniac the end yeah John Williams who you know the great composer was at wheels his house one day true story and and and and this was in 84 and said Jake what are you working I said you know I'm doing this new album for MCA records Irving Hayes off you know oh sure let's let's do this thing give it a try yeah and Joseph yeah I was told to John and he said you know my son Joseph is an artist do you mind giving him a shot I figured no problem buddy so Joseph Williams did two cuts on the album yeah and after that album he became the lead singer for Toto and he's still the lead singer today Jason boys what do you think I've never heard that John Williams his son was a lead singer of Toto that's that's and and part of a little if not for Jay Steinfeld either look look at you know it's Joseph Williams I can keep going you know so so you know amongst the lots of things that's the Marlin on this that's the Mar as a spokesperson for don't quit it's the yeah and what a obviously and of course human every you know my life has always been based around health and hope and family yeah and this is a guy the Mar really embodies all that he's also quit he's great I actually I was cut from my eighth grade basketball team true story pretty devastated the first you know I was an overweight kid had a bad stutter my dad bought me this set of weights and I had just wanted to step out I love basketball that's my first love and when I for the basketball team when I got cut it was pretty you know you were you were embarrassed that you know you're looking for your name on the wall it's not there and this kid gave me a poem called don't quit and I was never a real student and that poem for some reason locked in yeah and it became like a Bible verse to me and the last two lines are stick to the fight when your hardest hit it's when things seem worse that you must not quit and I trademarked the words in 1981 and I've owned them ever since don't quit yeah don't quit and it's been it's just been outs really really outstanding you know I've launched lots of different things had the first television network or fit TV yes 24-hour network and founded Major League Lacrosse which I did in yeah well we launched the league in 2000 as a summer showcase and you know rich and you guys rule on the sports business there's no book on how to start a professional sports league and it was one of the greatest adventures of my life you know you lost a lot of dough but you know sometimes in life you take shots and in life it's about taking shots and and to see the sport it's such a great sport it's it's just unfortunately isn't a great television sport which I came to learn after 22 years really cool thing is everything I try to do is really revolve in being authentic and has trust yeah and you know change is rough and tough but when you have the right motivation the right inspiration and the right tools change can happen and today especially with all the different things that are out there you know people are desperate for hope and I try with the people I put around me and the companies that we have to put our best foot forward to try to do the right thing and give people that chance to to to be better so when it comes to whether it's our protein shakes something really

signature what do you mean it's not your signature this is not my signature buddy down there you got ripped off no I did not yeah I don't do a frou-frou L like that I don't cross it so that is not yours because it's signed by you De Niro and Pesci and I spent at least four figures on this thing get out of here yes you're a sucker no that's that's now you're you're being serious that is definitely not your signature yeah Scorsese says Scorsese sign it down there too look at that underneath that that's his that is I'm not sure that Bob's I can only remember signing really like five that was complete and there was never like one of those signings where you all laid there I mean I couldn't sign it for real yeah at least I could double it please do it do what you wish if that is it do you know if that's Pesci's do you know that's Joe's no that's him no I know that's him you know that's his signature I don't I don't know Joe's signature okay Rick you show that yeah this is hanging it so every guest that walks in here this is one of the first things that they see in the hallway you sure well we'll take care of it later Rafi yeah what do you got are you serious do you want it do you want the real yeah sure but you know it's gonna hurt that hurt that okay you're okay it's not me yeah you just banged yourself you just crack the glass so we can take it out smash the glass I mean you got that this class that's not really it's like a plexi but we'll do it we'll fix it okay but you got ripped off oh my gosh is there feeling now rich he's holding on to the axe ask me a question oh my gosh you okay you put the axe down this is fantastic I'm sort of I don't even know where to go with this because that has been one of my most prized possessions for some time and you are the real McCoy's thing that is not your sick yeah I'm thinking oh my gosh I really hurt my head there of all the places for you to smash it it was directly in the forehead of you in the movie poster right there but it's all good because we're gonna take that thing apart if that's not your signature I need your actual John Hancock on that one of our favorites by the way Robert De Niro is still in possession of that poster at present oh and we're waiting to receive it back with either a thumbs up that is my signature or a new signature on it to confirm it is not his when that thing arrives in the mail because we did send a return ability for him yeah should we open it up on the air yes right absolutely to reveal whether it is in fact live reveal you know hunt down Pesci next that doesn't take too long that we could find I know cuz he's I know where I know where he golfs yep we could do that yeah we'll take it there I could do that yeah I'll take it there next oh crap I I think it's all fake except score so I think I think I think Marty's probably the only real this is the one is Scorsese signature is accurate and then somebody was like oh I can make I forged three other ones yeah and the idiot who paid the more was me man Jake Steinfeld's got story for days huh right yeah that was awesome I love that we didn't even talk about coming to get to I know I mean get to it who knew Steven Spielberg's nickname was wheels why would that be because he could run what I guess fast that's what I was thinking is you don't get a name like will well it's either you're
