Dan is on a business call so Stugotz and Greg are steering the ship through segment 1. It leads us into a conversation about the Tua Tagovailoa contract, the lack of AC in the studio, Calmly the horse being auctioned off, haircuts, and men being unable to find things. Then, John Tesh is the genius behind "Roundball Rock," the NBA on NBC theme, and joins us to share the story of writing the song via voicemail, finding the song's Wikipedia page, his work on Entertainment Tonight, being in a rivalry with Billy Joel as a youngster, SNL's take on his song, and a potential remake in the works. Plus, it's hot as f*** in South Florida, Justin Jefferson is hanging out NEAR the Jets facility, quarterbacks are adding and dropping weight, and Dan refuses to walk back a take.

We've sent the ever-shameless Stugotz to jail with Scottie Scheffler to explain how he would have gotten Scottie out of jail, made the story about himself, capitalized on the moment for book sales, and spent extra time in jail just to hammer home the point. Plus, Pablo Torre joins us to explain what HE would have done if he were in Jeff Darlington's spot and to discuss his new PTFO episode about X-Men 97, the Scarlett Johansson OpenAI controversy, and movies that were ahead of their time. Then, Ron Magill is here to chat with the crew about ticklish animals, falcons and cocaine, cicadas, and hyena surgery.

There are a handful of questions to answer as we kick off today's Big Suey: Does Billy Gil beg to differ or live to differ? Is it weird of Bryce Harper to help a random kid with a Promposal? Should a NBA team trade up to the No. 1 pick to take Bronny James just to recruit LeBron? What do you do with a lego set once you've built it? Then, Dan's dissection of Heat fandom and their unreasonably high expectations has us asking why Knicks fans are so grateful for a team that went out in the second round after choking on their home floor in a Game 7. What happened to you, Knicks fans? Plus, it's time for Stugotz's jam-packed Weekend Observations on a Tuesday and a conversation on why Jeff Darlington didn't take advantage and make the Scottie Scheffler more about himself.

Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Greg Cote, Chris, Billy, Jessica, and JuJu. Where's Shelly? Dan wants to have a conversation about fan expectations for national media coverage of both the NBA and NHL, but, and this will shock you, Greg and Billy derail that conversation by hating on advanced MLB stats, sharing Marlins gifts from Dan to Billy, and discussing the show's WNBA Fantasy League. Then, Greg believes Target has lowered their prices because he can buy shoes for $2.99 online, and he also has a word for the valet industry. Plus, Antonio Brown's declaration of bankruptcy leads to a discussion on NFL players, mental health, and CTE.
