Podcast appearances and mentions of Arash Markazi

Kawhi Leonard just signed a two-year extension with the Raptors worth up to $115 million, and John Browner says it makes perfect sense for both sides — Toronto is the only place he hasn't burned, and he'll get a statue there no matter how the 2019 title was won. But John also has a warning: last season was a contract year, and nobody claws money out of your pocket like the Claw. Grant makes the case that Toronto wouldn't have traded for a 1A star if they believed Scottie Barnes was one. Before that, the Bears' quarterback room gets thinner: Tyson Bagent is in concussion protocol with Caleb Williams week to week, which could leave Case Keenum starting against the Eagles — and John calls it a statement game for Ben Johnson. Arash Markazi returns from Australia to explain why Sean McVay finally owning the travel decision was the right move, and what made Australian fans embrace American media. John questions Deion Sanders dismissing Colorado players after a 41-7 loss, and Beav joins to defend LeBron's viral open-run clips and draw the line between Caleb Williams memes and personal attacks.

Grant and John Browner dig into the NFL Top 100, where Lamar Jackson — a multiple-time MVP who was No. 2 a year ago — fell 67 spots to No. 69 in a list voted on by the players themselves. John's read: this isn't a snub, it's confirmation that locker rooms don't fear him anymore. Arash Markazi joins fired up about the USC attendance story the whole country piled on: 100 degrees, San Jose State, a 38-point spread, and a noon kickoff nobody chose. John argues the schedule is the real problem, and the two land on the truth about Los Angeles — there are two of everything here, and football simply doesn't mean what it means in Texas. Josh Tariff arrives with the Packers autopsy: Matt LaFleur got an extension he shouldn't have, Green Bay let its leading receiver walk, and Micah Parsons is out four games. John's verdict on the division's other bench boss is even harsher — Dan Campbell is the most overrated coach in football, and that "run through a wall" style has an expiration date. It closes with the 49ers, George Kittle, and an organization whose wires are never crossed. New episodes weekday mornings. Follow the crew on X.

It's official-official: The Sporting Tribune Today joins SportsGrid on Monday, August 31 — 7AM and 11AM Eastern — and Grant, John Browner and Arash Markazi open with the celebration (and the suspiciously buff AI promo art). Then the news: the NFL has eliminated the Pro Bowl Games entirely, and John delivers the eulogy — the players ended this themselves, the Hawaii era gave way to the nothing era, and if the owners are smart, the "Pro Bowl bonus" leaves contracts next. The crew breaks down the league's new three-strikes suspension list (hip-drop yes, launching?!) and John's theory that gambling money is what's really softening football. Plus the Jed York bodycam video ("a handcuff training film"), the Lakers mess getting a court date — nothing resolves before November, and John's verdict on Jeanie's 5-to-1 odds is an instant classic — and Jonathan Kuminga turning down more Lakers money to join a Minnesota team John thinks might be the fastest in the league.

A night of firsts. Arash Markazi joins with the announcement six years in the making: this is the show's final week on terrestrial radio — because The Sporting Tribune Today is coming to television. From the pandemic-era Mightier 1090 relaunch to TV: the full origin story gets told, and John's only career advice — keep the same energy — hits different on a night like this. Then the sports world's own first: the Browns are waiving TE Daquan Wright, who has a deal in place to go BACK to college at LSU — the first NFL-to-college player ever. John's take: no rules broken, easy money, and the NBA should be terrified of the loophole. Plus Kalshi lands partnerships across MLB — Dodgers included — and John's warning about gambling, ownership groups and money that was never liquid: "this feels very Ponzi." Tim Parker closes the night defending Stephen A. Smith against the NABJ award nobody wants, and John explains exactly why the backlash landed. Full television details drop later this week.

Special edition! The Rams blanked the Saints 34-0 at SoFi Stadium in Week 2 of the preseason, and Grant Mona and John Browner went live right after the final whistle. They break down Stetson Bennett's two-touchdown day and the QB2 battle with Ty Simpson, a dominant Rams defense, CJ Daniels making his case at WR3, Jarquez Hunter's roster push, and the latest on Aaron Donald's comeback. Arash Markazi joins from SoFi Stadium, and Mykell Mathieu and Eric Lambkins II hop on with what they saw from the locker room. This is the first of many live postgame reactions from The Sporting Tribune — get used to seeing us after games. Directed & Produced by: Grant Mona Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The fire hose opened at 10:40 AM and never shut off. Grant and John Browner — with Arash Markazi joining — sort through the wildest news day of the year, starting with the story this show has tracked for a year: per a blockbuster ESPN report from Ramona Shelburne, Shams Charania, Baxter Holmes and Don Van Natta Jr., the NBA's Kawhi Leonard investigation found no concrete evidence that Steve Ballmer circumvented the cap. John's reaction is immediate: if he's Ballmer, he's suing for defamation after a year of the league dangling his reputation in public. And the twist nobody can believe — the NBA's response was to accuse its own broadcast partner of "significant inaccuracies," publicly calling ESPN's best reporters wrong on their biggest story. Arash brings the resolution energy: thank God it's over, the Clippers have had the findings since July, expect a hand-slap — picks or a fine — and the trade to Toronto now has a full runway. Then the uncomfortable part: John lays out the blueprint this precedent creates (call a rich friend, wink twice, see you in the Maldives), and Grant pulls the receipts on LeBron, crypto.com and the Sixers' jersey patch — not an accusation, but the exact question a no-punishment ending invites, because as John puts it, "public" has never meant "innocent." Then the story that somehow topped it: the Buss family civil war. A reported 5-1 vote to sell the remaining Lakers stake, Jeanie's attorney calling the report a fabrication, the brothers trying to force her out again, the 15% governor threshold, Mark Walter's $12.5 billion flip fourteen months after buying — and now he's selling his Chelsea stake too. Arash's viral read got a "no notes" from Bill Simmons, and the crew games out arbitration, the billionaire garage sale, and whether the Dodgers are quietly in play for Ballmer, Kroenke or Patrick Soon-Shiong. It ends with actual good news: the Padres are sold, the Seidler saga is over, and Kwanza Jones and José Feliciano make history — with a kicker that ties the whole night together.

Grant Mona and Arash Markazi reunite for a throwback edition of The Sporting Tribune Today, covering the biggest questions surrounding Southern California and Las Vegas sports. Arash shares his firsthand observations from the Rams' joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys in Woodland Hills, including the secrecy surrounding the session, Puka Nacua's injury scare, Myles Garrett's lingering knee swelling and Stetson Bennett's difficult performance. With Matthew Stafford entering another championship-or-bust season, do the Rams have a backup quarterback they can trust? The conversation then moves to Las Vegas, where veteran Kirk Cousins enters preseason as the Raiders' starting quarterback ahead of No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza. Grant and Arash discuss why Mendoza may benefit from waiting, what could force the Raiders to play him and how much progress would make Klint Kubiak's first season a success. They also examine the Chargers' ceiling, whether Mike McDaniel can unlock the best version of Justin Herbert and why regular-season success will no longer be enough for Jim Harbaugh's team. On the NBA side, Grant and Arash react to the opening-week and Christmas schedules, LeBron James returning to Los Angeles as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers and the start of the Luka Dončić era with the Lakers. Grant believes the rebuilt Lakers can finish as high as third in the Western Conference, while Arash questions whether the roster has a true championship ceiling. Finally, the latest Kawhi Leonard clues lead back to the stalled Clippers-Raptors trade. Kawhi has continued appearing around Toronto, while another curious image from the Clippers' facility has Grant wondering if both sides are already preparing for the deal to be completed. The Sporting Tribune Today airs on KIRN 670 AM in Southern California, The BET in Las Vegas and Hawaii Sports Radio Network.

Grant Mona is joined by Arash Markazi, John Browner and Josh Tariff for a packed edition of The Sporting Tribune Today. The crew breaks down Aaron Donald's latest workouts with the Rams and whether the future Hall of Famer is really preparing to come out of retirement. They also debate what Donald could add to an already loaded defense featuring Myles Garrett and whether the Rams should be viewed as clear Super Bowl favorites. Then, the conversation turns to the investigation surrounding Kawhi Leonard and the stalled trade that would send him to the Toronto Raptors for Brandon Ingram. Could Leonard end up back with the Los Angeles Clippers? What happens to the trade if the investigation stretches into training camp? The panel looks at the difficult decisions facing both organizations and why Clippers fans may quickly welcome Leonard back if he remains in Los Angeles. Arash also discusses the excitement surrounding Tarik Skubal after the reigning back-to-back Cy Young Award winner joined the Dodgers, while Grant explains why he isn't ready to panic over the team's recent struggles.

The two biggest names in Los Angeles are both on the move. Arash Markazi, John Browner, Tim, Beav, and Grant Mona break down LeBron James officially leaving the Lakers, with the crew convinced he is headed to Golden State to chase one more title, and why signing Austin Reaves first sealed it. Then it is the Kawhi Leonard trade to Toronto, the pick haul the Clippers pulled back, and a real argument over whether the Kawhi and Paul George era was a total failure or a quiet success, with John putting the whole thing at the feet of Lawrence Frank.

Free agency is here and the rumors are flying. Arash Markazi, Grant Mona, John Browner, and Eric Lambkins II open on the World Cup in their backyard, then dig into the Kawhi Leonard saga, with Shams reporting real talks between the Clippers and a Raptors team where Kawhi is still a hero. Grant breaks down the actual sticking points in the package, John argues trading him for pennies makes no sense after building the whole offseason around Darius Garland and Keaton Wagler, and ELamb makes the case that the only Kawhi trade worth doing is Jaylen Brown to Boston. Then the show goes off the rails with a LeBron, Steph, Draymond, and Anthony Davis super team rumor in Golden State.

Arash Markazi hosts John Browner, Josh Tariff, Tim Parker, and Grant Mona on the LeBron and Luka chemistry question, what Luka wants around him, the free agent targets who fit the modern champion blueprint, and why Rui Hachimura is probably staying. Then it turns to the Clippers and a heated debate over Tyronn Lue, whether he can out coach anyone, the plan to develop Darius Garland, and whether Lawrence Frank is the real problem.

Arash Markazi, Grant Mona, John Browner, and Tim Parker get into how the two time Defensive Player of the Year turns an already loaded roster into a Super Bowl favorite on another level, what it cost in Jared Verse and a 2027 first round pick, and the buzz about Aaron Donald possibly coming back to line up next to him.

The full crew is back as the Western Conference Finals come down to a winner-take-all Game 7 between the Oklahoma City Thunder and the San Antonio Spurs. Arash Markazi, Grant, Mona, Timothy Parker, Mykell Mathieu, and John Browner break down a series that swung from a classic Game 1 into a string of blowouts, what SGA has to do without the whistle in his favor, and whether Victor Wembanyama is ready for this moment or still on a learning curve. From there the panel looks ahead to the New York Knicks waiting in the NBA Finals, which matchup gives us the best series, and how far this Knicks group can really go. The conversation turns local with a deep dive on the Los Angeles Clippers at a franchise crossroads: is it finally time to trade Kawhi Leonard, chase young assets, and build around a top-five pick the way OKC built its juggernaut? Plus the guys get into the upcoming NBA Draft and the Darius Acuff Jr. debate, sprinkle in some MLB and NFL talk, and settle exactly nothing in the great Dodger Stadium vs. Petco Park vs. Angel Stadium argument.

Arash Markazi, Grant Mona, and Anwar Stetson are joined by Mykell Mathieu to break down a wild week in the sports world, from frustrating on-court antics to immortalizing legends in bronze. In Segment 1, the crew goes off on the current state of the Los Angeles Lakers following their baffling 110-109 loss to the Orlando Magic. Despite a 22-point, 15-assist night, Luka Dončić is under the microscope. The guys dissect the bizarre final play where Luka passed up a wide-open, game-winning look to defer to LeBron James at the buzzer. Even worse? The national media is officially turning on Luka. With analysts calling his constant complaining to the referees "unwatchable," Arash, Grant, Anwar, and Mykell debate whether Dončić's incredible talent is being overshadowed by a horrible viewing experience for the fans. In Segment 2, the conversation shifts to legacy. Fresh off the Lakers unveiling Pat Riley's 8-foot bronze statue outside of Crypto.com Arena, the guys ask the tough questions: What actually makes someone worthy of a stadium statue versus just a jersey retirement? The crew breaks down the unwritten rules, the absolute non-negotiable criteria, and which current LA athletes are on track to be immortalized in bronze.

Despite solid scoring nights from Luka Dončić and LeBron James, the Lakers were outhustled and outplayed by Jaylen Brown and Payton Pritchard. The crew discusses the harsh criticism surrounding the team's effort and whether this roster truly has what it takes to compete for a championship this season. In Segment 2, the conversation shifts to the other side of LA. The Clippers shook up the NBA at the trade deadline, shipping out James Harden and defensive anchor Ivica Zubac to get younger with Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin. Arash, Grant, and Mykell debate if this was a necessary reset or a massive mistake that leaves Kawhi Leonard on an island for the rest of the season. Finally, we wrap up with the boys in blue! Baseball is officially back, and we've got all the updates from Dodgers Spring Training in Glendale—from Shohei Ohtani throwing live bullpens to the newest additions making an immediate impact.

On today's episode of The Sporting Tribune Today, your hosts — Arash Markazi, Grant Mona, and Anwar Stetson — along with guests Eric Lambkins II and Mykell Mathieu, bring you an inside look at two big baseball stories: covering the NBA All-Star Game as media, and the early Dodgers spring training atmosphere as teams ramp up for Cactus League play. Segment One — Behind the Scenes Covering the All-Star Game The group opens with a roundtable on what it's like to cover the NBA All-Star Game as part of the media, sharing firsthand experiences from player availability, press access, and the energy of the event. They break down the buzz around player interviews, how All-Star Weekend feels from the press box versus the stands, and what moments stood out most — from surprise performances to memorable sound bites and storylines that defined the weekend. Segment Two — Dodgers Spring Training Vibes & Lambkins on Bortolow Contact In segment two, the conversation shifts to MLB as spring training gets underway. The panel discusses the feel of Dodgers camp, including the influx of 32 non-roster invitees mixing with established stars as Los Angeles prepares for another deep run. Fans and analysts alike are buzzing about the energy at Camelback Ranch as pitchers and catchers have already reported and early workouts begin, signaling that Opening Day is just weeks away. Eric Lambkins II also shares a unique angle on his contact with former 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr., reflecting on the intersection of NFL history and current L.A. sports culture — giving a rare behind-the-scenes perspective that goes beyond the field (context on DeBartolo's legacy as a five-Super-Bowl winning owner is a touchpoint for this conversation).
