About this episode
Rich starts the hour with a tongue-in-cheek check in on Medina Spirit and whatever happened to the horse’s 2nd sample that was sent for re-testing after the Kentucky Derby. Rich reacts to Zach Wilson’s first press conference with the Jets and his challenges of dealing with east coast drivers, which leads into a game-by-game breakdown of the Jets 2021 schedule. Actor/comedian/host Howie Mandel and Rich discuss the words “moist” and “ointment” which somehow leads to the topic of Simon Cowell, how he got his acting start back in the 80’s on the iconic ‘St. Elsewhere’ drama, how his early career was influenced by Robin Williams, Richard Pryor, and David Letterman, getting to work alongside the likes of Denzel Washington, Kathy Bates and other young actors early in their careers, the new season of ‘America’s Got Talent’ and why he launched his new podcast. Rich wraps up the hour with a new segment, ‘Confidence Level Friday’ focusing on how confident TJ Jefferson is that his Clippers will still be alive in the NBA Playoffs when the show returns after Memorial Day.
