The Drive discusses how the Astros are handling their young right fielder.
The NY Knicks are NBA champions! Plus, do you like how the Astros are handling young right fielder Cam Smith?
There are a lot of Black baseball highlights to review this morning, BUT who are we kidding? Last night was all about the Knicks and their epic - historic - comeback victory in the Garden. I'm not going to lie, I was depressed by the third quarter. I was in my Knicks group chat not just talking doom for the game, but doom for the entire series. Then history happened. What a comeback. What a team! What a night! Black baseball had a big night all across MLB: James Wood & and Jordan Walker hit bombs (yes, Walker's is not in the IG highlights…I'll try to add it to Substack), Cedric Mullins, Cam Smith, Lawrence Butler, Byron Buxton, and Jazz are all in the's FYB, and more! And, how about those White Sox? They are in sole possession of first place in the AL Central. Who could have guessed?
K.C. Johnson and Cam Smith open the show by honoring Stacey King, reflecting on the recent CHSN special and the statement released by Stacey's family.

Scott shares stories from their days on the Bulls, including intense bench-vs.-starter battles, the competitive culture created by players like Michael Jordan and company, memories from the 1992 championship run, Stacey's relationship with Phil Jackson, and the heartbreak he felt when Stacey was traded.

K.C. Johnson gives Cam Smith his due after Cam correctly predicted the NBA Finals matchup, setting the stage for a breakdown of how the two teams stack up against each other.

They also bring out the "By The Horns Hotline," answering questions from Bulls fans about the coaching search, draft possibilities, roster decisions involving Ayo Dosunmu, organizational changes under Bryson Graham, and potential trade scenarios.

The crew is deep into summer golf season — and this week there's plenty to talk about. First up, the Women's US Open heads to Riviera Country Club, and the guys make the case for why Riv might actually suit the women's game better than the men's. The iconic par-4 10th gets its due, and Coach Clappy shares why he'll be there in person — supporting his student Davina Zand as she competes in the Curtis Cup at Bel-Air.From there, the conversation turns to one of coaching's great debates: has golf instruction become too technical? With launch monitors, video, and biomechanics data at every corner, the guys ask what would happen if you stripped it all away — and why the best coaches in the world often keep it brutally simple. Think Butch Harmon telling Tommy Fleetwood to "shut the door" with his hip.Then it gets personal. Cam Smith's recent move away from long-time coach Grant Field sparks a broader conversation about when it's right to change coaches — and when it isn't. How do you know it's time to move on? What does loyalty really look like? And should coaches be cutting ties with students more often than they do?Next week: TaylorMade's Chris Trott (Trotty Golf) joins to talk equipment fitting — drop your questions now.
The Big Breakfast with Marto & Margaux - 104.5 Triple M Brisbane
We hear from a grown up who's into egging, Marto questions what Cam Smith is bringing to The Broncos and, for Wemember Wednesday, what happened when you snuck out as a kid?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We crosstrain with the Fascist-in-Chief tearing up the South Lawn of the White House in order to host a UFC event in honor of his own birthday and to celebrate America 250. Because nothing says patriotism, etc. Pottymouth finally gets Blaze on the roster, maybe a day late but it will be great and in talking about Caleb we wonder if anyone else has said GSwing out loud. Nick breaks a streak but also the NYY so Patti's okay. Cam steals a home run and finally has some fun at home. PCA shows the shirtless guys what's up and leads us to a very weird conversation about where to draw the line in what's permissible to yell at a heckler. Pottymouth uses Kiké's injury as a teaching moment for a vocabulary lesson in words probably not permissible to yell at a heckler. Cristopher Sánchez's streak may lead him right to a Cy Young. MLB and MLBPA have fired their first economic proposal shots at each other and it looks bleak. Wander Franco is still guilty but yet free and we have thoughts and feelings.

It's a short round of highlights this morning, so let's get to it. Cam Smith made the play of the night in the Astros win over the Rangers. Acuna, Albies, Smith, and Harris powered the Braves over the Red Sox at Fenway. And Murakami keeps hitting, and the White Sox keep winning. Let's finish our breakfast, shall we?
Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson welcome Bulls pre and postgame analyst and former Bull Kendall Gill to talk the future of the Bulls and the current NBA landscape. Kendall shares why he believes newly hired EVP Bryson Graham can help reshape the franchise, reflects on his own experiences in Charlotte and how they compare to the Bulls' current situation, and explains why Chicago still has major work to do despite the pieces already on the roster. The guys also get into the Bulls' options with the No. 4 overall pick, potential draft fits, and Kendall's surprising thoughts on a possible move for a former NBA all-star. The conversation also shifts around the league as Kendall gives his conference finals and NBA Finals predictions, discusses the rise of the New York Knicks, and talks about what it would mean for Jalen Brunson to bring New York a championship. They dive into Victor Wembanyama's future with the San Antonio Spurs, whether he is already becoming the face of the league, and how the Spurs' organizational culture continues to stand out across the NBA. Plus, Kendall wraps things up with stories from his offseason life away from basketball, including his passion for gardening.
Seth and Sean kick off the show talking about the Astros getting in a hole they couldn't get all the way out of and losing 10-7 to the Rangers, what a healthy pitching rotation might look like for this team, and just how much and how bad Cam Smith has been at challenging pitches this year.
Seth and Sean are back. They kick off the show talking about the Astros 9-0 no hitter win over the Rangers yesterday.
We start today with Nick talking us through the new Long Island course(s) which he played late last week, a course redesign that Mark describes as a 'new concept in golf', whereby it is basically 3 courses. Nick played one of them and outlines what it was like, he cannot wait to go back. The team at OCM have done a great job.And onto a huge talking point of the week. The tournament at TPC Craig Ranch in Texas, where the course underwent a $25m redesign to make it tougher for the pros, was it? Well perhaps not. Nick and Mark look at the scores....wowee. Mark describes course designers adding in multiple pin placements a 'con' and explains why.Nick has got his hands on a survey that the PGA Tour has sent to Tour Pros, and there are some fascinating questions that they have asked. He talks through some of the most intriguing ones. Mark shares a revealing stat on his club head speed and carry today vs when he was on tour.....interesting! And we compare a couple of Titleist drivers, a newer one vs an older one. Nick also has a stat, one to do with Tiger and his driving distance.Mark says 'Rory McIlroy broke my heart'. Was this a romantic situation? Is it love scorned? No, it's far worse, Mark explains on the pod. Nick, being supportive, after hearing the story says that Rory is wrong. We discuss bifurcation for a bit. It really is the only solution.And what about Bryson? A YouTube star or a Pro Golfer? What will he do? He has said he is uncertain. Mark is 100% clear on what he'd like Bryson to do, Nick more circumspect.And for Hostplus, our 'plus' for golf this week is the Long Island redevelopment!After the turn.....following Nick's Top 5 nicest pro golfers last week, today Mark lists the top 5 'arsehole' acts he has seen Tour Pros do. Does he name names? Well, one. But Nick also has a story about an arsehole act that happened to him from a Tour Pro, he refuses to give the name, despite Mark and Dan trying to trap him - but from the clues, see if you can guess?The PING globals, plenty to talk through, including the great win by Scott Hend at the weekend! Fantastic to see.For Southern Golf Club, plenty of feedback, including on Nick and Mark's analysis of Cam Smith's swing last week, and we have a listen to his coach Claude Harmon speaking on his 'Son of a Butch' podcast about working with Cam.Feedback on cheating, including an incident at The Grange in Adelaide, AO Comments, and we get our discussion on where Lions live from last week clarified.And for the Golf Clearance Outlet, a cracking masterclass from Nick O'Hern inspired by watching Si Woo Kim at the weekend doing something unusual with his putting.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

Smylie Kaufman and Charlie Hulme are back from a long week at the PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club, where Aaron Rai captured his first major championship in one of the more unpredictable PGA Championships in recent memory. Smylie and Charlie break down why Rai's precision and consistency were such a perfect fit for the setup, what made Aronimink play so uniquely, and which players left Philadelphia with momentum heading into the summer stretch.The guys also discuss Jon Rahm, Justin Thomas, Cam Smith, Ludvig Åberg and more, before diving into the latest reporting surrounding LIV Golf's financial future, potential restructuring, and what it could mean for players and professional golf moving forward.

Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson unpack some more offseason moves for the Chicago Bulls after the organization officially added Stephen Mervis and Acie Law IV to the front office. The conversation dives into Law's return to the franchise, his basketball background, and the Chicago sports ties that make the hire even more intriguing. From there, the spotlight swings toward the Bulls' coaching search, as Cam and K.C. sort through the growing list of candidates that includes Wes Unseld Jr., David Sweeney, Micah Nori, and James Borrego. Then the energy shifts to a wild start to the NBA's conference finals, beginning with the Spurs and Thunder delivering an instant classic in Game 1 of the West Finals. Cam and K.C. break down Victor Wembanyama's jaw-dropping performance, debate whether his deep late-game three could become one of the defining shots of this NBA era, and discuss what lessons the Bulls can take from San Antonio's rapid rise. The episode also includes Eastern Conference Finals predictions, draft talk surrounding potential risers outside the top four, K.C.'s insight into how league circles view the Bulls' draft position, and why Cam believes Caleb Wilson may ultimately have the highest ceiling in the entire class.

Big pod today, and of course we start with the fantastic win by Aaron Rai, he came from behind, but what a final day - particularly the last 9 or 10 holes on (his) Sunday. Mark says if you're going to win a golf tournament, that's the way to do it....Nick says that the finish was insane. We discuss the clubs he had in the bag.Aaron of course was the headline, but there were other notable performances. Cam Smith had a cracking tournament, and was in the hunt until midway through the final day. We discuss the challenges of him parting ways with his coach prior to the tournament. And Nick and Mark talk about his swing, Mark has a video from the weekend of Cam that he breaks down and discusses, and talks about how Trevor Imelman had some great observations on Cam's swing on the commentary. Min Woo played well, but couldn't keep it going through the weekend, and Nick said that when Jon Rahm birdied the first two holes he thought we were on. Nick and Mark both agreed, great to see Rahm playing well.We discuss the golf ball rollback, and the ball Cameron Young used in the tournament....interesting...leads to a chat about drivers and bifurcation.For Hostplus, our plus for golf this week was Aaron Rai - not the win as such, but the dedication to his family, which was beautiful to see.From a plus, to a negative. Ryan Ang at the weekend on the China Tour. It's quite disgraceful that he is even playing at the moment, and it's something that the various tours need to fix.Mark raises the routing at Kingston Heath for the Australian Open, he doesn't like it, and implores Golf Australia to change it saying it 'isn't too late'!After the turn, for Betr, Nick lists the Top 5 nicest players in golf....spoiler alert, Aaron Rai makes the list!Feedback for Southern Golf Club, we hear from you on Aaron Rai, Keegan Bradley, Garrick Higgo, Cheating, Inhoi Hur, the Australian Open news from a week or two ago, and feedback on Nicks comments about Cam Smith last week.And for PING, who'll help you play your best, Nick takes us around the world with the PING Globals.We wrap the show with a great masterclass for the Golf Clearance Outlet, inspired by Aaron Rai, Mark's masterclass is on 'courage'.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

CJ Cup Preview | Aaron Rai Wins PGA | Justin Thomas 5 Beer Leader Lunch | Jon Rahm Comeback Year? On the show we chat through the Aaron Rai win at the PGA Championship. Could this be the year of the Rai? Is he the new JJ Spaun? Did golf win this week with the PGA Championship. Rory McIlroy was very vocal going into the weekend on his thoughts about the course setup. Scottie Scheffler and Rory were in the mix but could not close it out. We were surprised at how well Jon Rahm did in the event along with Cam Smith. Bryson DeChambeau continues to struggle with majors in 2026. Is it time to hit the Bryson panic button. We chat through The CJ Cup at Byron Nelson event. Scottie is the clear favorite followed by Si Woo Kim and Jordan Spieth. This should be a good event following the major. Why didn't President Trump take Tiger Woods to China with him last week?

Baden and Clappy are back to unpack a massive week in golf. They kick off at Harbour Town — a course that makes the case that great design, not a rolled-back ball, is how you defend par. From there it's a proper debate on the USGA's bifurcation plan: is it pointless engineering theatre, or the future of the pro game? The boys get into why slower swingers barely notice the change, the social awkwardness of "which ball are you playing?" at your home club, and why Trotty Golf reckons driver designers will claw every yard back anyway.Then it's ground reaction forces — the thing Baden famously doesn't have. Clappy breaks down the three flavours (lateral, vertical, rotary), why Scottie Scheffler slides and Matt Fitzpatrick pulls his front foot out of the way, and how understanding ground forces turned his clubhead speed from 116 to 132 mph. Plus a sharp take on why most 18-handicappers should be nowhere near a force plate.The back half dives into LIV's rumoured cash crunch, TaylorMade team rebrands, and the no-man's-land waiting for returning players like Cam Smith, Joaquin Niemann and DJ — while Patrick Reed serves out his suspension. Bryson's stirring up trouble again. And next week: golf media insider Luke Kerr-Dineen joins the pod.Grab a coffee. Plenty to chew on.
