Previously on The Tony Kornheiser Show.
We'll take a break. When we come back, Booger McFarlane. What? I have an early fact check on how many chickens are in the planet. How many? This just says over 33 billion. Well, that's the whole planet, though.
A lot of them could be in places that we don't know about. Like unknown species of chicken? The Azores?
Uruguay could have nine billion. I don't know. I don't know. They say it's difficult because the population numbers changes every day when they kill 25 million a day. It's hard to keep tab.
The Tony Kornheiser Show is on now. Apparently we have a lot of emails about chickens. We'll get to them later in the show. Nigel, though, has a Mark Feinsand story to tell.
Yes, so I got a text from Mark Feinsand, and he texted me just this. True story. One of my son's best friends, Sam, just decided to attend Binghamton in the fall. This was an actual conversation that Feinsand said took place in his kitchen this week. Me. Hey, Sam, do you know who went to Binghamton? Tony Kornheiser. Sam. I don't know who that is. Sounds like a future MSNBC host to me. It's Harry Melber's son.
Who? Sam Melber. Okay. Yeah. That's who it is. It's Harry Melber's son. He's going there. I bet that kid's going to spend a lot of time at Sharky's. Sharky's is still there, I hope. It's still there. That's so wonderful. The electric shuffleboard. It's just such a lovely... And Speedy's, is that with the... Yeah, Speedy's are made there. But now mostly with chicken. Chicken, not with lamb. When I was there, it was lamb. Lamb was great. There's lots of chicken. Chicken is a... We're going to get to chicken later in the show, but chicken is a more common... commodity than lamb yes all right you can put it on the grill phil yeah but speed over over a thick slice of white bread yeah the thick italian white bread uh speedies that's the only place they are it's like beef on weck oh yeah only in buffalo that's all there are you know like buffalo wings are now exported everywhere but beef on weck is still only in buffalo
Nats win last night. Everybody, you know, all sports fans watching the basketball but me. I'm not watching the basketball. I'm watching the Nats. Mackenzie Gore with another good start. One run in six. He went through six, I think. 101 pitches.
10 strikeouts.
10 strikeouts. Yeah, looked good. You know, the Mets, for all the money they've spent, aren't very good. They've had two pitchers the last two days, Budo and Senga. Let's not poke the bear.
Let's not poke the bear.
Well, I'm just saying, until Scherzer and Verlander get out there, they don't appear to be very good. Their hitting is not at all what you think it's going to be. With Lindor and Alonzo and McNeil and all these guys, you think it's going to be better than it is, and it's not so far.
it's not mcdowell is really good at bats you just wonder if this is one of those offenses where as soon as the calendar turns to may and it gets warm up there they start to put up some runs but they look they do not look like they're in the same class as the braves right now no no they do not by the way for those of you who are worried about um my condemnation of a bunch of hitters on the gnats like victor robles who just keeps striking he's back to striking out all the time now at least he's doing it in pretty big moments he waits for rudder's
But first and second. Striking out looking all the time now. And Dominic Smith, who stinks beyond worldly comprehension. I think he's still high-fiving every Mets player before the game starts. He's terrible. He got his first extra base hit yesterday. His first extra base hit. He got a double. Did not drive in a run. He stuck on four RBI after 25 games. And then in a situation where they had two on, he popped up harmlessly to left field. He's terrible. He plays every inning. I just don't get it.
Did you watch Ryu's yesterday? He had a couple good at-bats. No, I didn't. He just worked one for like eight, nine pitches, had a nice single up to the right side.
So, you know, but the Nats win, and that's two in a row against a pretty good team.
