Ride Home Rants Mike Bono

Have you ever taken a stroll down memory lane and found yourself embroiled in the heartwarming tales of a small-town hero? That's exactly what happened when I sat down with coach Matt Altomare, the pulse of Leetonia High School football, whose story is as deeply woven into the fabric of Leetonia, Ohio, as the gridiron itself. Our conversation traverses the cherished corridors of community bonds, Italian heritage, and the legacy of following in his father's coaching footsteps, a poignant reflection that's sure to resonate with anyone who holds their hometown close to their heart.

It's a gripping tale of destiny and determination as we unearth the serendipitous paths our careers have taken. You'll be privy to the twists of fate that saw me sidestep from a 2.0 GPA college graduate to a stand-up comedian, and Matt's journey from the field to the sidelines, molding young athletes with the same vigor his father did. We swap stories of Fiddys legendary networking skills, a testament to the power of connections that bind us, whether in comedy clubs or coaching huddles.

As we wrap up, you'll feel the grit and passion of high school football coaching coursing through your veins. Matt opens up about the ebb and flow of his career, the hiatus he took for his family, and the drive that led him back to the game. The candid tales of navigating through a losing streak and aiming for a triumphant return to Leetonia's glory days will leave you cheering from the sidelines. So if you've ever wondered about the life lessons sports impart or simply enjoy a good chronicle of redemption and revival, this episode is a score for your listening playlist. Share it with frien

Ever found yourself chuckling at the notion that beard oil could be the pumpkin spice latte of the grooming world? You're not alone. Buddy Holly joins me, and his experiences as a comedian and beard care aficionado manage to tangle humor, life lessons, and self-care into a conversation that's as enlightening as it is entertaining. We traverse from the joys of a well-maintained beard to the realm of laughter that breaks down barriers, and Buddy's candid stories add a rich flavor to the mix.

Lights, camera, laughter! Strap in for tales that stretch from my customer service escapades to the stage lights of stand-up comedy. Laugh along as I recount the bizarre, the heartfelt, and even the solemn moments where humor emerged triumphantly. Whether it's the art of storytelling or the authenticity that binds comedy and communication, these anecdotes highlight the universal thread of genuine connection. And yes, we'll unravel the quirks of living with ADHD, including our unconventional love affair with caffeine in all its jittery glory.

You won't want to miss the brain-tickling "Fast Fiddy 5" segment, where life's hypotheticals spar with our wit and wisdom. Plus, we'll reveal the surprising cross-section between beard grooming products and humor – think pumpkin spice and gunmetal beard oils with a whiff of jest. And of course, the unexpected marketing misadventures that left us both in stitches. It's not just a podcast; it's a rendezvous with the lighter side of life where comedy, self-care, and the occasional beard oil scent become your new best friends.

Have you ever wondered what fuels the fire in the belly of a comedian? Get ready to crack open the world of chuckles with Newark's king of comedy, Destin Richardson, as he joins me, Mike Bono, in an unfiltered journey through the highs and lows of comedic life. We're laying it all out there—from the relentless grind of content creation to the saving grace of cargo shorts on a hot day. Destin peels back the layers on his podcasting experience, and together, we examine how our relaxed style goes hand in hand with our punchlines, proving that comedy and comfort can coexist.

We're no strangers to the bumpy road of personal struggles, and in this laugh-packed session, we're sharing the stories that sculpted our humorous outlooks. Remember the first time you heard Eddie Murphy 'Raw' or when a Doug Stanhope bit made you think, "I could do this?" We're reminiscing about those pivotal moments, our early days on stage facing the grip of stage fright, and why certain jokes, like the timeless ones about Black Friday, still tickle us pink. Discover how organic and conversational delivery not only captivates the audience but keeps us, the joke-slingers, addicted to the roar of crowd laughter.

Ever been to a funeral and caught yourself crafting a bit in your head? We're admitting to the sometimes inappropriate yet inevitable way our comedic minds tick, even in the darkest of times. And it doesn't stop at punchlines; we're also debating the heavyweight champions of casual dining and sharing our two cents on why hot tea deserves a standing ovation in the beverage world. So, whether you're team Applebee's or Olive Garden, or just in need of a good chuckle, join us

Step up to the plate for a grand slam discussion on the 2024 MLB season! I'm your host, Fiddy, pinch-hitting for Mike Bono this time around, and we've got the bases loaded with insider predictions, player spotlights, and the managerial chess that could define this year's baseball saga. Joined by the heavy-hitting panel of Tony, TJ, and Austin, we look back at the Texas Rangers' sensational World Series win and pitch our forecasts for the team's chances of a repeat performance. As the Yankees and Mets gear up for another crack at the title and the Guardians embark on a new era, we're here to break down the strategic plays and power hitters that will capture the headlines.

Prepare for a curveball as we swing into World Series predictions and the art of baseball management. Will the Seattle Mariners end their drought and make a splash this season? Can the Braves power through the National League? Our guest panel steps up to the discussion mound, giving props to Bruce Bochy's strategic mastery. But with surprise picks like the Tampa Bay Rays and Chicago Cubs potentially stealing the spotlight, we're not just playing small ball here – we're going big, examining the potential dark horses who could race out of the Central Division and into the heart of October.

Rounding third and heading for home, we scrutinize the pivotal role of managers in molding a team's success. We dissect the Yankees' high-pressure environment and Marcus Stroman's controversial decision, while also casting an analytical eye on the Baltimore Orioles' quest to validate their Cinderella season. The LA Dodgers, laden with high expectations and even higher payroll, are under the micros
