Podcast appearances and mentions of Alex Rodriguez

Here on The Deal we have interviewed  some of the world’s most famous athletes and some of the most powerful people in sports. But today we welcome our most important guests and probably our hosts’ biggest critics: their children. In this special Father’s Day episode of The Deal, Alex and Jason’s kids join us to share some perspective on who their dads are off the air. First up, Natasha and Ella Rodriguez give us the inside scoop on Alex’s past as a musical theatre star and which TikTok trends he struggled to master. They also offer him some style advice and share their favorite family memories. Next, we hear from Jason’s sons, Henry and Will, about their dad’s level of Knicks fandom, who is the Josh Hart of the Kelly family and what Jason taught them about appreciating sports. Our closer is Alice Kelly, who asks Alex Rodriguez one of the most pressing questions of his career… does he like Pokémon?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Knicks are NBA champions, and Jalen Brunson's place in New York sports history is suddenly the debate of the city. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Brunson delivering the kind of moment Knicks fans waited generations to see, then ask how far one championship can carry him among New York's most beloved sports figures. The conversation turns into a passionate climb up the New York icon ladder, with Brunson compared to Tiki, Curtis Martin, Alex Rodriguez, Henrik Lundqvist, Patrick Ewing, Mike Piazza, Mark Messier, Eli Manning and Derek Jeter. Evan argues that leading the Knicks to a title carries a rare weight in this city, while Tiki and the crew push back with points about longevity, legacy, playoff greatness and what it really means to become a New York legend.

The 2026 World Cup kicks off today in Mexico City.

In this episode, we sit down with Jeff Lee, CEO and co-founder of DIBS Beauty, one of the fastest-growing color cosmetics brands in the country, now carried in over 1,300 Ulta Beauty doors with a product waitlist culture that generated 17K+ sign-ups before their mascara even launched. Jeff's path to beauty CEO is anything but conventional: Yale Law, Wall Street, Stanford MBA, Alex Rodriguez, and a co-founding partnership built entirely over Zoom. He breaks down what DIBS got right in the first six to twelve months, why your product doesn't have to be the most innovative — just the most useful, and how being the "first beauty founder to visit an Ulta in all 50 states" taught him more about selling than anything else. He also gets real about career pivots, the myth of the founder story, burnout as a natural cycle, and why the in-store conversation still produces 10x the order value of anything you can do online.Key Takeaways:// Don't design for yourself. One of the most common founder mistakes is assuming you are the customer. Jeff isn't the end user of most of DIBS's products — and leaning into his co-founder Courtney's existing audience was the honest advantage they doubled down on from day one.// Your advantage tells you your customer, not the other way around. Start with where you have a real edge, then build toward it. Sublimate the ego. The brand that's built for a broader audience will always outperform the brand built for the founder's taste.// In-store still wins at 10x. For all the magic of influencers, social commerce, and a full digital stack — DIBS's highest order values come the moment a real conversation happens in-store. The customer arrives pre-sold from online; the store is where she converts at scale.// Your brand needs to be in the conversation before she walks in. A beautiful end cap alone won't do it. Customers now come in with a predisposition — either for or against you. Your digital presence, influencer strategy, and brand awareness work determines what happens before the store visit even begins.// Burnout is a cycle, not a finish line. Jeff reframes the burnout conversation entirely — it's not something to avoid, it's something to move through. The question isn't how to never burn out; it's whether you reignite on the other side.// Going backwards to go forwards is a real strategy. Jeff took a 90% pay cut to pivot into beauty. But he's equally clear-eyed: that choice was made possible by financial stability built first. Solve for what actually matters in your life before romanticizing the leap.Learn More About DIBS: Instagram____Join the MHH Collective!

Today is Opening Day of the 2026 MLB season. The season kicks off with a coast-to-coast showdown (on Netflix!) between the New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants. But it’s the off-the-diamond news that’s making the biggest waves. Beyond a streaming service partnership, baseball's also now in business with Polymarket, and facing labor strife that could lead to an offseason lockout going into 2027. So, yeah, there's a lot to talk about. In this special episode of The Deal, Alex breaks it all down for Jason, reflecting on his own participation in the 1995 MLB lockout and responds to MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred saying off-season lockouts “should be the new norm.” He also explains what he sees as the MLBPA’s non-negotiables, his thoughts on the MLB having a salary cap and why now is the best time to invest in baseball. Finally, Alex shares the baseball storylines he is most looking forward to and his prediction of who will be facing off to win it all in October.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join me on the couch in Molly Bloom's hotel room at the Four Seasons in downtown Toronto.  Molly began her career as a world-class skier, but while training as a pre-teen was diagnosed with severe scoliosis. Her doctor told her she could never ski again, but even as a pre-teen Molly had incredible strength of mind and she ended up back on the slopes only a year after her surgery.    By age 21, she was ranked #3 in North America. She then took off to LA and began running one of the most exclusive, high-stakes, underground poker games in the world, featuring players like Alex Rodriguez, Tobey Maguire, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, and was raking in millions of dollars per year. Then what happened? The feds went after her! The mafia went after her! And there was a dramatic takedown. While awaiting sentencing, she wrote her life's story in her memoir, Molly's Game. That book became a bestseller and was turned into a movie written and directed by Aaron Sorkin, writer of The West Wing and The Social Network, starring Jessica Chastain (as Molly), Idris Elba, and Kevin Costner.   Molly has been featured on Ellen, NPR, LA Times, VICE, and many more. But beneath the surface is a story that, as she says in this chapter, has never been shared before.    There was a journey happening inside Molly that forced her to look at the downsides of her ambition and addictive personality.    So get into something comfy, grab a seat between us, and let's talk about life altering public defeat, how a memoir transforms into an action-packed Hollywood feature, the liberty in losing everything, finding the 'monetizable asset' in your life, and Molly's 3 most formative books.    Let's flip the page back to Chapter 42 now....

Tonight, the United States and Venezuela face off in the finals of the 2026 World Baseball Classic. And chances are, a lot of you will be watching. Based only on pool play, this year’s WBC viewership is up 142% from the 2023 tournament. 35,000 people have bought tickets to tonight’s final and over 100 million Japanese fans tuned in to watch Shohei Ohtani. Aaron Judge called the crowd at the U.S.-Mexico game on March 10th, “bigger and better than the World Series.” In this special episode of The Deal, Alex Rodriguez shares his reaction to the phenomenon that is the 2026 World Baseball Classic with his co-host Jason Kelly. Rodriguez talks about the national pride his fellow Dominicans felt over the past few weeks and explains why MLB commissioner Rob Manfred needs to capitalize on this momentum leading into what Rodriguez calls “the most important season in the history of the sport.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Shaun Morash brings another edition of Cinco de Luncho, counting down the biggest sports moments that looked completely done but somehow never happened. From the brief panic of “Arson Judge” to the Giants, to the almost-real Maxx Crosby trade to Baltimore, to the infamous Chris Paul-to-the-Lakers deal that the league shut down, the list is packed with massive what-ifs. The guys also revisit Alex Rodriguez nearly joining the Red Sox and debate the ultimate near-miss: Bill Belichick almost becoming the head coach of the New York Jets, a move that could have completely changed NFL history. Evan and Tiki react to each one and imagine how different the sports world might look today if just one of these deals had actually gone through.

Evan and Tiki break down WFAN's craziest takes of the week in “Are You Kidding Me?” featuring Big Mac's Roger Clemens defense, Craig Carton's Joe Montana claim, Tommy Lugauer's Saquon Barkley argument, and Shaun Morash's Giants draft take. Plus, the guys react to Alex Rodriguez's White House appearance and Donald Trump's past comments about A-Rod.

Alex Rodriguez, co-owner of the Timberwolves, was at a recent White House event getting his picture taken with the President. Some are saying that given recent events in Minnesota, and the Wolves wanting public money for a new arena, this was a bad move. What say you?
