I'm thrilled to welcome the brilliant Bill Walton to Some Future Day. Together we're diving into the heart of today's hottest economic issues, from explosive tariff wars to the AI revolution that's reshaping everything we know.You've probably heard plenty of chatter about tariffs, but did you know America's exports to Canada and Mexico make up just 2.3% of our GDP, yet we account for over 31% of Mexico's GDP and nearly 20% of Canada's? Bill Walton reveals why this imbalance gives America enormous leverage and how Trump-era policies might reshape global trade wars in ways you haven't imagined.We also get deep into how artificial intelligence and automation are shaking up job markets and innovation. Bill predicts massive shifts in white collar professions, shares why new tech breakthroughs in AI and crypto will trigger a fresh wave of job creation, and offers his surprising take on who wins and who loses in this brave new economy.This conversation is a roadmap to understanding America's future.

On March 31, 1975, the UCLA Bruins beat the Kentucky Wildcats 92-85 for the 10th and final championship under the legendary Wizard of Westwood, John Wooden. The greatest collegiate coach in U.S. history retired after his team's 7-point win at the Sports Arena in San Diego. UCLA was the best in college basketball in 1964, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973 & 1975. An astonishing 10 titles in 12 years! Nothing in major collegiate sports compares to the dominance of what Wooden accomplished in his final dozen years in Westwood. A week later, Steve Garvey was on the April 7, 1975 issue of SI, but the story that captivated the sports world was the final game of Wooden's time at UCLA. The end of an era that will never be replicated… and he went out a champion. Now in retirement at the age of 64, Wooden retreated to his home and continued to be a mentor to the many players who played for him at UCLA, notably, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Walton, Lucius Allen, Larry Farmer and countless others. His beloved wife Nell passed in 1985 and Coach fell into a deep funk. His children were deeply worried about the mental anguish the widowed Wooden was enduring with the passing of his wife after 53 years of marriage. Gradually he came out of it with the help of his family, friends, and players who visited with him regularly. One of those who saw Coach Wooden on a regular basis for home visits was his podiatrist, Dr. Michael Levi. Michael would come often to check on the now 80+ year old Coach Wooden and the two soon became more than just a doctor-patient relationship. They would often have breakfast together and talk about family, life, baseball, God, books and any other topic that Wooden found interesting… which was everything. Michael would return home and write down everything that had taken place upon his visit with Coach… and in 2016, 6 years after Coach Wooden was laid to rest at the age of 99, Levi published a book with the help of former L.A. times writer Larry Stewart called, “Wednesdays with Wooden.” Levi talks about how he went to a camp as a 6-year old and saw Wooden for the first time and how is father idolized the legendary Bruins coach. He tells us on the Past Our Prime podcast how he and Wooden became friends over their time together and how he was able to give his father the best birthday gift ever… lunch with Coach Wooden. Levi tells us about the depression that felled the Coach after the death of Nell and what brought him out of it and how the phone never stopped ringing at Coach Wooden's house with players calling to check up on him constantly throughout the day…. Every day… It's an intimate and personal look at the most successful college coach in NCAA history from a man who checked on Wooden's feet, and ended up getting a piece of his heart.

This is a very special episode that we have for you this week, because for the first time in six years, Pearl Jam finally returned home to play a show in Seattle. Not only that, but it was both Randy and Javier's first time witnessing a show in their hometown. It was a week of celebration as the city featured so many fun events in connection with the band, and what made it memorable on our part is that we had such a great group of friends to experience it with. From visiting Seattle grunge landmarks, to signing massive flags and pre-gaming at local bars, this is one of our favorite traveling experiences. Which is why we have invited our group of friends who all stayed together at a BNB in striking distance to Climate Pledge Arena on this episode to talk about how meaningful it was to all of us. While the six person conversation will certainly take up a healthy chunk of the episode, we will dig deep into this awesome show from last year. There are special moments featured here that a year later we look back on very fondly. The last five songs in the main set - Upper Hand, Waiting For Stevie, Man Of The Hour, Satan's Bed and Rearviewmirror displayed perhaps one of the best set runs that Pearl Jam had in all of 2024. We'll spend a lot of time on Man Of The Hour, which was already a highly emotional moment due to the tribute to the late Bill Walton, but was also incredibly important to the hosts from this night. While the end of the main set was killer, the end of the encore has tons of talking points as well with a modified rendition of All Along The Watchtower, the first appearance of Yellow Wing (a mashup of Ledbetter and Little Wing) as well as one of the final times to date that Setting Sun has closed a show. For all of you old school Live On 4 Legs fans, this will take you back to older episodes as the total run time on this exceeds two hours, but there's no lack of stories and celebration for a show that certainly deserves it's flowers!

Every once in a while something so remarkable happens that it jumps past all the other very important events of the day and becomes banner news. So while the Oregon men are moving through the Big Ten tournament and two in-state women's teams just battled for an NCAA Tournament berth, Bill Oram and Brenna Greene absolutely had to start this week's episode of the Oregonian Sports Podcast with a thorough breakdown of Natalie Zito, nee Gilbert's, surprise appearance to sing the national anthem in front of ex-Blazers coach Maurice Cheeks on Wednesday night. While the Blazers have been on an upswing in the second half of the season, the franchise's idea to reunite Gilbert and Cheeks may have been the season's best moment. Also discussed on this week's episode: • Combined with Bill Walton's tribute night 72 hours earlier, this has been a big week for Blazers game ops • Bill describes other memorable national anthem performances, including a notable freeze-job by an Oscar nominee • Oregon State's win over Portland in the WCC women's title game was a celebration of Oregon hoops • The Oregon men further burnished their March Madness resume with a win over Indiana on the Hoosiers' home turf Learn more about your ad choices.

In Hour 1, Dirt & Sprague discuss the Blazers' tribute to Bill Walton over the weekend, celebrate the fact that the NFL consistently owns the world of sports news, and more.
Celebrating the legacy of Big Red
On this episode we discuss LeBron James reaching 50,000 ponits and the latest in the NBA (11:50) and United States Senator Ron Wyden joins to discuss the legacy of Bill Walton (45:50)
0:00 ... Ross hello and welcome and introduces the crew. 0:35 ... Episode #146 is dedicated to John Konchar, who has worn #46 for his entire career in the NBA. 0:47 ... Ross live commercial read for BetOnLine 1:23 ... The Cleveland Cavaliers have been on a season-long roll and the crew breaks down the reasons for their incredible success. Donovan Mitchell absolutely torched the Boston Celtics once again last Friday night. 7:50 ... The young Detroit Pistons team has won 9 of its last 10 games, including a huge win over the defending champion Celtics last Wednesday. Their mix of great young talent plus newly acquired veterans like Malik Beasley have them in a great position to make the playoffs as the #6 seed in the east. 12:37 ... The Los Angeles Lakers are rolling and the chemistry is developing quickly between LeBron James and Luka Doncic. They truly look like a team that is peaking at a good time and their defense has been incredible. They may just be the number one threat to the OKC Thunder to represent the western conference in the NBA Finals. 18:29 ... The final two play-in spots out west look like they'll probably go to Sacramento and Dallas, but the young Portland Trailblazers are sitting at #11 and have been playing their best ball in years. The guys size up Portland's chances of grabbing the #10 spot away from the Kings or Mavericks. 23:52 ... Jalen Suggs of the Magic will undergo surgery on his left knee and will be out indefinitely. His loss removes a great two way player and considering what a poor shooting team the Magic are, they'll likely continue to disappoint. In fairness to coach Jamahl Moseley, injuries to Paolo Banchero, Franz Wagner, and Suggs have derailed their season. 30:18 ... Joel Embiid of the 76ers played just 19 games this season and has been shut down for the remainder of the season. Bruce makes some comparisons between Embiid and the late Bill Walton who was also a super talented big man who battled injuries throughout his Hall of Fame career. The entire 76ers' season has been one big dumpster fire burning out of control. 38:23 ... Jimmy Butler may have moved on to the Bay Area, but the Butler vs. Miami saga continues as he is being sued by a company in Miami Beach. We'll offer details. 39:49 ... Bruce's final thought is on a play he attended last Friday called "King James," which is the story of two Cavaliers fans who bonded over their love of LeBron James. 40:54 ... World B's final thought is on Stephon Curry, the greatest shooter in history and someone who will eventually be considered one of the top five players of all time if he can win one more ring. 42:53 ... Ross's final thought is on Meyers Leonard, who recently announced his retirement. Leonard wrote a country style song about his career and Ross is impressed with the quality of the song. 44:36 ... Bruce tells his fellow Celtics fans not to panic about some recent losses since Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis missed the game against Cleveland but should be ready for the postseason in good health. 45:26 ... Ross says goodbye TRT 45:41

Bill Walton discussed the rapid start of President Trump's term, emphasizing the administration's aggressive approach to implementing executive orders aimed at dismantling DEI and climate change initiatives. He expressed optimism about the direction of these policies but raised concerns regarding the legal authority of such actions, suggesting that Congressional involvement may be necessary as legal challenges emerge. Walton also highlighted anticipated challenges in moving inland, including potential resistance and infighting. Kerry Lutz criticized U.S. Aid as a corrupt entity linked to the CIA, which he argued has shifted towards a more progressive agenda over the past two decades, referencing Mike Waller's book, "Big Intel." The conversation shifted to government spending, with Walton and Lutz examining the existence of slush funds, particularly a $400 billion fund at the Department of Energy, and the overall waste in government resources. They noted the growing public awareness of these issues, which could foster support for reform. The discussion also touched on the president's impoundment authority and the potential for the Supreme Court to enforce spending mandates from Congress. Walton and Lutz criticized the Democratic National Committee for its lack of a coherent agenda and discussed the feasibility of tax reform, suggesting a national sales tax as a more practical alternative to the income tax. They concluded by addressing California's governance issues and the potential for a shift in voter sentiment towards conservative policies, while promoting participation in the upcoming CPAC event.

Look around and watch as the savings grow: President Donald Trump's new administration is taking it seriously to save the U.S. taxpayer from waste and corruption. There's a cut coming to USAID. There are billions of dollars in cuts coming by way of Elon Musk's DOGE. There are cuts coming by way of the pause in federal grant funding. And it's all good for citizens who want a government of transparency and accountability. Bill Walton, whose widely skilled background hails from the worlds of business and finance and media and even movie-making -- he says Trump has come in and issued a sort of "shock and awe" type of agenda. It won't be long before citizens start feeling the financial boom that's on its way.
0:00 ... Ross Geiger hello and welcome .... introduces co-hosts Bruce Bernstein and Michael "World B" Freer and teases our guest Peter Vecsey. This week's show (#142) is dedicated to former Mavs player Maxi Kleber, who will now be a Los Angeles Laker. 0:59 ... Ross live commercial read for BetOnline. 1:39 ... Bruce introduces Peter Vecsey and mentions some of his memorable nicknames. 2:45 ... Peter discusses his best nicknames and shares a great story about Joe Barry Carroll, whom he dubbed "Joe Barely Cares." Peter famously dubbed Larry Bird "Larry Legend." 4:35 ... Ross asks for Peter's reaction to the Luka Doncic/Anthony Davis trade and how none of the newsbreakers who cover the league had any clue it was happening. 10:32 ... Considering the principals in the deal, Peter shares his thoughts on some of the other deals that were historic but he feels than none were ever bigger than this one. 12:54 ... Peter tells why Dallas MAY have traded Luka and tells a story about how former Mavs coach Rick Carlisle left the Mavs because he did not like coaching Luka. 16:13 ... Why did the Mavericks want the often injured Anthony Davis? 17:15 ... The Lakers needed a big man, so naturally they traded their Hall of Fame big man. 20:12 ... Peter reacts to DeAaron Fox going to San Antonio and why he liked Fox prior to this season but has soured on him this year. 24:15 ... Bruce makes a joke about how the players for Archbishop Molloy H.S. in Queens (Peter's alma mater) were big time ballers and he joked how he was ahead of his time as a high school player. 24:53 ... Bruce takes a shot at Zach LaVine, who was traded from the Bulls to the Kings and how Sacramento's GM seems clueless. Peter goes on to discuss Billy Donovan, his first NBA interview that was done for SportsChannel at Hofstra University where Bruce also worked. 27:26 ... On being inducted into the Hoop Hall of Fame in 2009. Surprisingly Peter has little regard for the Hoop hall and Jerry Colangelo who is the boss. 31:23 ... Peter is annoyed that K.C. Jones is not in the Hall as a coach when he was voted one of the top 15 coaches of all time. He relays a great story Larry Bird told him about how K.C. got through to Dennis Johnson when other coaches could not. 36:22 ... Bruce asks about Michael Jordan and John Stockton and their 2009 Hall of Fame speeches. Peter tells a great story about how he took a big gamble during an interview with Stockton that he did for NBC where Stockton was tight lipped but how Peter eventually got him to open up. 39:21 ... World B initiates a discussion of the top players of all time ... Peter takes exception to the suggestion that MJ and LeBron are the two best ever. Peter ticks off many others who are up there. 41:42 ... Kobe is also right up there and Peter shares some moments from their discussions over the years. Their relationship was very close and he tells the story of how Kobe got his unusual first name. 44:44 ... Ross asks about the 65 game rule for postseason awards and Peter is in favor of it. Peter is NOT in favor of Adam Silver's idea for 10 minute quarters. 46:47 ... Bruce asks about the new All-Star game format and how the event has become unwatchable. Peter thinks the new tournament format may help make it more appealing. He is not impressed with the new women's 3 on 3 league but transitions into a story about how K.C. Jones allowed him to work out with the Celtics teams of the 1980s and play full-court 4 on 4. 50:12 ... World B asks Peter who his favorite interview subject was ... and it was Larry Bird. Of course, there's a couple of good Bird stories there! And there's a great story about how Bird signed a photo for Peter's son as a birthday gift. Peter truly misses being around Larry. 53:17 ... Peter shares some Bill Walton stories and how he helped Bill get into TV at NBC. We exchanged some Walton stories. 55:10 ... Bruce asks about the MVP race and how Nikola Jokic probably won't win it this year due to voter fatigue but that Shai Gilgeous Alexander is deserving. Peter feels OKC's record this year helps SGA. Peter goes onto discuss Lu Dort, whom he watched at Arizona State and is a key reason for OKC's success. 58:48 ... Peter predicts OKC will win it all this year ... he praises Isaiah Hartenstein of the Thunder and can't believe how good he has become. 1:00:06 ... Ross thanks peter and says goodbye TRT 1:00:51
