Why Artificial Intelligence Is More “Big Bang Theory” Than Big Bang
We find ourselves at a rare moment in human history, facing an undefinable industry worth trillions, which happens to be concentrated in the hands of a few billionaire stewards like the doomsayer Elon Musk, the evangelist Sam Altman and MMA enthusiast Mark Zuckerberg. Are they just super-villains plotting our own destruction? Washington Post columnist Josh Tyrangiel’s entire beat is artificial intelligence. So we ask him to contemplate the odds of extinction — and why A.I. might just cure James Harden's addiction to strip clubs.

The Crying Game: A Scientific Voyage into the Tear Ducts of Caleb Williams and Bill Belichick
A viral video of a weeping Caleb Williams, the top prodigy in this week’s draft, “scares the sh*t out of a lot of NFL teams.” So correspondent Dave Fleming breaks out the tissues — and a stack of research — to discover what the science of crying disproves about the pseudo-science of scouting; why a Super Bowl locker room was like a scene out of “The Notebook”; and how even the Darth Vader of football (allegedly) choked up. Plus: Domonique Foxworth names names — and changes our basic understanding of the most masculine of sports.

The Anti-4/20 4/20 Episode, with a Stoned Katie Nolan and a Very Much Not-Stoned Dan Soder
Comedian Dan Soder has come a long way since the seeds-and-stems days of kitty-litter gravity bongs. After quitting drinking and cigarettes and tethering many super-high people back to Earth, he has — at least temporarily — taken a weed sabbatical, ahead of the amateur holiday for dorks. His fiancée and Pablo... not so much.

How Marijuana Can Be a Performance-Enhancing Drug, with Matt Barnes
If you want to trace the normalization of weed in sports and America, there is no better ambassador than NBA champion and "All The Smoke" host Matt Barnes. Taking gravity-bong rips to go full "Teen Wolf" in high school? Check. Beating drug tests in college and, uh, having a narc watch him pee — and poop! — during a test in the NBA? Yeah. Smoking with Woody Harrelson on his head coach's balcony, during the playoffs? Really. But the NBA came late to the cannabis party, as "more than half the league… from the superstars to the rookies" got caught in pro basketball's race-baiting, steroid-fearing war on drugs. In a new era of acceptance, marijuana might just help hoopers stop the next Kobe.

We Found the Secret Tape the Knicks Made for LeBron
Pablo has unearthed a long-rumored, previously unpublished, for-your-eyes-only video from the summer of 2010, featuring a committee of A-list New Yorkers recruiting free agent LeBron James to the Garden. It may feature one of the biggest revelations in TV history, but let's just say — between a couple former politicians and another convicted rapist — that this tape has aged very, very poorly. Knicks superfans Jason Concepcion (@netw3rk) and Rob Perez (@WorldWideWob) gaze into the ark of the covenant... and cringe.

Great Start
UPDATE: this show has found its groove, producing banger after banger. Must listen.
—————————
I was worried this was going to be a recreation of ESPN Daily, which he did fine but worse than Mina. If this show is what the first few episodes (sneak previews and first official episode) have been, then I am excited for what is to come. We’ll see, but great start.
Worst most clickbait podcast online
Not only did Pablo ruin bomanis high noon.
He also does the worst podcast online.
He never finds anything out!
All he does is ask questions of the same lebatard universe jagoffs while learning nothing and never answering the title of the episodes.
Terrible.
Three Amigos
Mina Dan and Pablo together are a national treasure!
