A daily ritual

I wouldn’t have a reason to get out of bed if it wasn’t for the NBA Daily Podcast. I would die in my bed from dehydration. My family would have to call a service to remove my rotting carcass, which would be an experience I believe they would struggle to forget. But thanks to this podcast, I do get out of bed every day: in fact, I LEAP out of bed to hear each new episode. I thank you. My family thanks you. My higher power, who I choose to call Dyson Daniels, thanks you. Please don’t ever stop making new episodes or I will die!

Go look at some of the hosts personal handles. These guys are complete Thunder homers with insane homer takes. Not worth anyones time.
My favorite podcast is Slam n Jam
4d ago
Love the new pods with Es, Zena, and Dave as well. Been a listener for years but just got an iPhone so I can leave this review. As of 3/12/25 Andrews unofficial record calculated by me (so a strong chance there’s a mistake but we’re at least in the ballpark) is 64-68-4. I sent screenshots to Al on Bluesky showing the date, wheel team, opponent and outcome, so my work can be double checked. Love the slam N Jam keep up the great work.
