WFAN’s “Boomer and Gio” does not have the same chemistry with Aaron Rodgers that Pat McAfee does. 

Gregg Giannotti, who’s been doing the morning show with Boomer Esiason for seven years, called last year’s interview with Rodgers “the most awkward, horrible 18 minutes” in the show’s history. 

“I’d rather you interview Aaron Rodgers than us after what happened last year,” Giannotti told Jon “Stugotz” Weiner, Esiason’s fill-in host for the week, on Wednesday.

“And I’m dead serious about that. I don’t need another crack at that. I’m fine. Honestly, you can have that, I don’t need to interview him again.”

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers said in a soon-to-be-released biography that he regrets how he discussed his COVID-19 immunization status in 2021. In August 2021, Rodgers told reporters during a training camp session for the Green Bay Packers — his team at the time — that he had “been immunized” when asked whether he was vaccinated. Rodgers came under fire after he tested positive for COVID-19 three months later and was sidelined for 10 days.

Last month, New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh made it pretty clear that he did not expect Aaron Rodgers to play in the preseason for the team. And while Rodgers initially expressed surprise at that decision, saying it was “news to him,” it sounds like he would be at peace if he did not play during the preseason and waited until the regular season to return to the field for the Jets.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, is still looking for a forever home for an adorable six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie.
