The Rich Keefe Show

The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show from Thursday, May 21st, 2026.

Time for reflection on this off day for the Red Sox after Jarren Duran carried them to a three-game sweep in Kansas City. Christian explains why a poor American League makes the Sox lucky to be in the spot they're in currently. Then, fans don't want to crown the Patriots' offseason as a success yet, but it could change if they do indeed trade with the Eagles for AJ Brown. And, Bill Belichick spoke a lot on Pardon My Take and we discovered the one thing he and Arcand have in common.

We get into the timeline of where things went wrong for John Henry and the feelings fans have for him taking a turn after he says he can't get free drinks in Boston anymore. How far do things really go back when there was an organizational change? Then, Christopher Smith of MassLive joins the show and talks about how integral Jarren Duran really is to the Red Sox clubhouse. And, Christian believes the NBA's time of duos running the league are coming to an end.

We get into tonight's Headlines featuring quarterbacks news with Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford plus the firing of Mavericks' coach Jason Kidd. Then, the New England Nightly News goes into Boston being ranks 17th as a sports business city and an error from British radio sparks some memories. And, Drake Maye needs some reliable targets to carry over from last year and trading Kayshon Boutte wouldn't be a smart move by the Patriots.

After claiming the Red Sox won't be making any seismic moves in the near future, its time to dive into the Arcand Fire. What does Christian think about Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's postgame comments about his teammates and the newest investigation from Pablo Torre? Then, this is the place to catch up on the big flies in baseball in another installment of The Dong Report. And, some fun facts about tonight's dong total with a twist.

For the 8th time this season, we catch you up on the long goners of the night in The Dong Report!

Some strange postgame comments from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, a ruling on if Joey Chestnut will compete at the hot dog eating contest, and a new victim for Pablo Torre to investigate in the Arcand Fire.

A surprising ranking on Boston as a sports business city and an error from a British radio station brings back some memories during the New England Nightly News.

One more year for Aaron Rodgers, multiple more for Matthew Stafford, Jason Kidd fired, and more included in tonight's Headlines.

Red Sox writer from MassLive Christopher Smith joins the show to discuss the three-game sweep over the Royals and if it can be sustained. Plus, Christopher explains how important Jarren Duran still is to the clubhouse.

Whether it was tongue in cheek, John Henry doesn't get free drinks in Boston anymore when in reality things took a turn for Henry and Fenway Sports Group was when they had a field sale at the 2014 trade deadline.

Everyone seems to have hesitance about what they think of the Patriots' offseason, but it will be a consensus success as long as they indeed acquire AJ Brown.

If he keeps up his hot hitting and stellar defense in Kansas City, Jarren Duran can keep the Red Sox in contention and at the very least keep them relevant and entertaining.

The full edition The Christian Arcand Show from Monday, May 11th, 2026.

We finally have a full four hour show for you and there's a lot to try and sort through when it comes to the Red Sox. How much worse could things get at Fenway Park if things don't get any better? Then, Trevor Story's struggles and Jarren Duran's Instagram are highlighted in the worst way possible in what could become an already lost season. And, with the Phillies coming to town, Dave Dombrowski's squad is in a spot with a new manager that the Sox should have wanted to be in.

Its time for a long-awaited rant about the Celtics' elimination and their latest rumors involving a potential trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo. What about Jaylen Brown's antics has Christian all fired up? Then, Dan Greenberg from Barstool Sports continues to conversation and explains why fans have a reluctance to just say Brown, Jayson Tatum, and the rest of the team didn't execute instead of Joe Mazzulla's coaching. And, an update on the ongoing drama with Mike Vrabel and Diana Russini.

The third hour begins with tonight's Headlines featuring an update on the Knicks moving on in the NBA playoffs. Also, a rumored conversation between the Celtics and Hawks at the trade deadline. Then, in the New England Nightly News, a scary scene on Memorial Drive and Tom Brady roasting Kevin Hart are included. And, the first step for the Red Sox to turn things around: win at Fenway.

In the final, the Arcand Fire offers a look into the future of Boston sports and how Mike Vrabel might be called the hero if they make it back to the Super Bowl. Then, a look around the majors in The Dong Report. And, what stands out to you from tonight's Dong Report total.

For the first time in a few weeks, we give you a look around the big leagues in The Dong Report.

An update on a potential suspension to Charlie McAvoy, non disciplinary action towards Victor Wembanyama, and much more in the Arcand Fire.

A scary active shooter scene on Memorial Drive, a disgusting act from a Southbridge McDonald's worker, and Tom Brady bombs at the Roast of Kevin Hart in the New England Nightly News.

A report surfaces about the Celtics and Hawks discussing a deal at last year's trade deadline, the Knicks advancing to their second straight conference finals, and the first Sunday Night Football matchup announced in tonight's Headlines.

Celtics' contributor from Barstool Sports Dan Greenberg joins the show and shares his frustrations with the Celtics being eliminated so early in the playoffs and how more blame should go onto the players rather than Joe Mazzulla's coaching.

There hasn't been a show since the Celtics got eliminated, but Christian is very frustrated seeing the 76ers get bounced pretty easily to the Knicks after upsetting the Celtics and Jaylen Brown's comments to the officials drove him crazy.

On the surface, using Instagram and then deleting it to go after Michael Holley isn't as bad as it looks for Jarren Duran, but compounded on a bad season for the Sox makes it look much worse.

With the turmoil Jarren Duran stirred up by calling out Michael Holley and the vibes getting drowned out this weekend, the atmosphere surrounding the Red Sox is bad, but could get a lot worse if things don't turn around soon.

The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show with KJ Carson and Jon Lyons filling in from Thursday, April 30th, 2026.

KJ Carson and Jon Lyons fill in for Arcand tonight as eyes go to Philadelphia for Game 6 between the Celtics and 76ers. Could Joel Embiid duplicate his Game 5 performance and make things even more treacherous for C's fans? Then, WEEI's Celtics' writer Justin Turpin joins the show and talks about how if Boston can get more scoring outside of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown then the Celtics will advance. And, a look at the championship chances for every playoff team in NBA Crypto.

Still less than a week after the mass layoffs to the Red Sox coaching staff and remnants are being felt mostly from Brayan Bello in his last start. Why did Bello show those emotions and is the timing of Alex Cora being fired a factor into it? Then, Craig Breslow has shown he may not quite have a plan in place and ultimately tried to get some power back by ridding nearly the entire coaching staff. And, looking through the entire Red Sox roster and deciding who's Just a Guy or better.

Its odd timing for the Red Sox to get rid of their manager and coaching staff with everything oddly lining up. Is John Henry making a ploy to start putting the Sox up for sale? Then, there's still so much to work out between the Patriots and Eagles that there's no certainty a deal actually gets made. And, looking through the Boston athletes to show and lust towards.

KJ has his eyes on the impending lockout as a potential reason John Henry and Craig Breslow are making such drastic changes. Does the potential work stoppage have anything to do with how the Red Sox coaching staff has changed? Then, a replay of KJ and Jon Lyons' conversation with Celtics' writer Justin Turpin. And, not a great start in Philadelphia with only win needed for the C's, but trail big at halftime.

How can the Celtics fix their shooting woes in Game 6? Kowloon sold a $1M lottery ticket. Why did the Red Sox move on from Jason Varitek who has done so much for this city and team? What happens if the Bruins lose again at home in the playoffs?

KJ and Lyons debate if Caleb Lomu was the right pick for the Patriots in round one of the NFL Draft. Garrett Crochet is headed to the IL with left shoulder inflammation. Are we worried? We play Shootout, and more!

Kj and Lyons are joined by WEEI's Bridgette Proulx to recap Bruins vs. Sabres Game 5 and debate expectations for Game 6 on Friday. Can the B's find a way to win at home and force a Game 7? Bridgette remains high on Jeremy Swayman and Marco Sturm. We play Professor Lyons.

KJ and Lyons open the show discussing the Red Sox dropping a series in Toronto. What comes next for this team? They fired Alex Cora and still look bad, can anything save the season? WIP's Sean Bell joins the guys to recap Celtics vs. 76ers Game 5 and preview Game 6.
