**Craig Carton** (0:00)
My kids are like, Dad, how come you never go on Bob Does Sports? Like, I don't know, I don't play golf all the time. That's why I got other things to do.
But happy to have one of the big names over at Bob Does Sports. I gotta be sure I say it right so I don't get any trouble at home. When I get home, bare down cuz.

**Mike Villani** (0:18)
That's it.

**Craig Carton** (0:18)
That's what I'm talking about.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:20)
Mike, how you doing, buddy?

**Mike Villani** (0:21)
I'm great, it's great to be here. This is like, this is, you know, power.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:24)
This is a big deal for you, right? This is power chair. That's what I'm talking about.

**Craig Carton** (0:26)
This is power chair. You're a big dude, I didn't realize how big you were.

**Mike Villani** (0:29)
Well, you know, I'm often sitting every time someone sees me, so it's like, that's the reception.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:34)
Dude, I get that too.

**Craig Carton** (0:35)
For 10 years, sitting next to Boomer, he's 6'4, 270
Despite every fad diet in the world, he can't really keep it off. Every time I'd go anywhere, like, oh man, I always thought you were small. I'm like, I'm 6'1, dude. I get used to it.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:48)
Comes at your fab.

**Mike Villani** (0:50)
When you shut up, I was like, I was like, there is something there. But you know, Booms has got the trunk, man.

**Chris McMonigle** (0:56)
He's got his whole ass.

**Mike Villani** (0:58)
He loves talking about guys' asses.

**Craig Carton** (0:59)
Let me tell you how that started. There was a hurricane that came through town, and me, Boomer Frankreich, are out at the Island Mermaid, which is a little bar there on Fire Island. We had like a charity appearance there. But you can't get on the island after a certain hour, because this hurricane was coming in. So no joke, it's me, my wife, Boomer Frankreich, and a late friend of Boomer's. And there's a live band there. We didn't expect the place to be packed. So it's just us, all right? And we're drinking pretty good that night. And Boomer goes, hey Frank, tell Carton what you're looking for when you look for a quarterback. Now Frank's not a big drinker. I'm not even sure he was drinking at all that night. And he goes, first thing I look for, and I'm thinking, you know, strong arm, right?
Or a tall guy goes, first thing I look for is an ass.
I go, Frank, like, it was just us here. You know, pick me up, he goes, a thick ass.
He goes, I want a thick ass. I want a thick trunk. I don't look at his arm. I don't look at anything else because all the power comes from your hips and your ass and your legs. And that's the first thing I look for. And I was like, Chuck, please, time to go. But that's what it is.

**Mike Villani** (2:08)
When he's got Phil on, it's the same thing. Phil talks about the trunk and the ass. These guys are big on, they love the ass. Pro quarterbacks just love the ass.

**Craig Carton** (2:16)
But so does Little Wayne. But that's for an entire, no, it's entirely different matter.

**Mike Villani** (2:20)
But yeah.

**Craig Carton** (2:21)
So, now, are you a cop?
Are you in security? Did you have a daytime job? Because I was told you were either like the head of security somewhere, or you're a cop or something. Who told you that? One of my kids.

**Mike Villani** (2:35)
Oh, one of your kids?

**Chris McMonigle** (2:36)
Yeah, because I think you might be the head of security somewhere.

**Mike Villani** (2:38)
Yeah, no, I'm not the head of security of anywhere, but I do still have a regular job. You know, we're working on it, you know. I got about two years left till I pension out.
So you know, I'm still doing the nine to five punch in the clock. You know, I'm doing God's work on the working man stuff. I'm still doing it.

**Chris McMonigle** (2:55)
Like, I'm with you guys out there. So the mortgage gets paid.

**Mike Villani** (2:57)
So the guys listening out there, driving home right now, I'm with you, I'm for you. But yeah, and then on the side, obviously, we have our fun house down in Florida.

**Chris McMonigle** (3:07)
Now that's killing it.

**Craig Carton** (3:08)
I think they're based in Jupiter, right?

**Mike Villani** (3:09)
They're in Jupiter.

**Craig Carton** (3:10)
And is that because it's easy just to play golf here around?
