The Jabsteps is a brand new NBA podcast hosted by professors and grad school buddies Geoff Peck and Salvatore Pane. Join the guys as they cover issues from around the Association and make jokes at doofus Reggie Miller's expense.
Peck's a former D1 player who loves the Thunder and despises media narratives. Pane loves advanced stats, Drake, and the New York Knicks. Listen to them disagree over just about everything. It's sort of like watching ball in the bar with the worst friends you ever had.

Customer Reviews
Great podcast!
They are quite funny and have a good understanding of the sports.
A review for 2020
Recommended! This is a podcast that tells you, at the end of every episode, how to find the podcast. That information, like the rest of the podcast, is absurdly unnecessary but fun to hear anyway. I don't normally write iTunes reviews, but I noticed that there were no 2019 reviews posted here, so to celebrate New Year's Day, I'm taking the pressure off the rest of 2020.
"Profs on Ball" on Fire
Two English professors, one a hyper-extroverted, vocally long-suffering Knicks fan, the other a former Div 1 college player/OKC fan, discuss the latest in the world of the NBA. What makes this different from every other "two dudes talking basketball" podcast is the dynamic between the profs. Pane plays the manic, pop-culture obsessed superfan, while Peck fulfills the role of the exasperated straight man trying to rely on logic and facts in a world gone mad. Come for the NBA analysis, stay for segments like the Pop Culture Fast Break, the Thesis Workshop, and Did Steven Adams Get Hit in the Nuts Last Night?
