Deck the Halls with Lots of D.A. – Holiday Gift Guide on CBS Sports Radio

You know I can never get enough hang time with the boys over at The DA Show on CBS Sports Radio.

Damon Amendolara (D.A.) and the team have a way of bringing some serious funniez out of me. I’m pretty sure I could sit in the studio for a full 24 hours and just banter with them. Now that it’s the holiday season, we are up to our usual shenanigans with gifting, instigating, and plenty of hilarity. I’ve listed some of my top gifts below!

For listeners looking for my full gift guide, you can find that right here.


Bottle Keeper/Can Keeper

Warm that special someone’s heart with an ice-cold beer. Perfect for DA fans who enjoy tailgating! Keep that beer can or beer bottle cold and protected with the Bottle Keeper. There are tons of color options (I extra dig the Americana). You can even customize it with laser engraving for a little extra love.

CORI Travel Pillow

I use to think travel pillows were super nerdy until I watched the “Queen of Glam” and my bestie, Alicia Oliveri, use them non-stop on flights. Now, I recommend the CORI modular travel pillow, which can be customized to your own comfort preferences. The inner pillows of the CORI are made with soft memory foam and silky fabric. It easily rolls up and can be tossed into the compact travel bag that’s included.

Lumos Matrix

As a fitness enthusiast, I am serious about nighttime safety. The Lumos Matrix is a dynamic bike helmet with safety features front and center. Features include automatic brake lights, turn signals (remote included), and a fully customizable dot matrix display—staying safe has never been so cool. It’s also weatherproof, rechargeable (ten hour battery life), and internationally safety certified.

Nintendo Socks in Retro Console

Level up your sock game with this three-pack of Super Mario socks. Best part is no wrapping required—they come in a retro cardboard console for extra nerdy delight.

Darth Vader Clapper

Your home is not a smart home until you install the Darth Vader clapper. I've enjoyed partnering with GameStop over the holidays on several projects. Not only are they your ultimate gaming destination, but you can also find one-of-a-kind collectibles that are out of this world. The Darth Vader Clapper has a wireless remote switch—you clap your hands to turn an appliance on or off. Listen, it’s the little things in life.

Duke Cannon Holiday Set

Inspired by soldiers, benefitting veterans, made in the USA, and all done with a great sense of humor, Duke Cannon is an all-around yes for the men in your life. You can’t go wrong with their full range of products! I handpicked the limited-edition holiday soap bundle featuring: Burning Yule Logs, Snow Covered Pine, and Lumps of Coal - Activated Charcoal Soap.

Yeti Customized Drinkware

You can’t go wrong with anything Yeti. My go-to recommendation from their lineup for the holiday is a customized water bottle. Add a favorite team or monogram of your choice from several style and color options. In true Yeti style and quality, their drinkware keeps cold drinks super cold and hot drinks super hot.

P.S. If you have the budget, level up and get him or her the collegiate cooler.
