Plus, is it time to have a real Cam Smith conversation? And the Question of the Day: When's a time you somehow escaped disaster?

ITL dives into a packed show following the Texans-Lions joint practice in Detroit.

But the literary vibes don't last long, as we dive into breaking news from Dolphins Training Camp: Darren Waller has finally been activated! Things get a little spicy when Jaguars head coach downplays the upcoming joint practice, and let's just say the gang doesn't take kindly to the “not physical” jab.

This week, we react to Cam Smith hype, Ed Orgeron's alleged 12-Red-Bulls-a-day habit, and justice served in the Miami Heat jersey heist case. Finally, in Hour 4, the silly sauce is flowing as Jfig finally shares with Brittney the mysterious death of Washington the Parrot — and the guys run wild with conspiracy theories and over-the-top impressions. RIP to a real one. Things shift back to football as Jeffery Simmons sounds off on media questions after a scuffle with QB Cam Ward, leading Leroy to share a moment from his playing days when he had to put a reporter in check.

It's Hour Tua, which means of course Dolphins Talk! The injuries keep coming in, as Tobin gives an update of the newest ones, is it ever going to click with Cam Smith. Tobin circles back to the QB lists which upsets Leroy, he's clearly not a big list guy. It is a kind of anger from Leroy you can only listen to in order to believe. Damage is Done gets derailed rather as the gang reminisces on the picture of Tobin at the trampoline park, lots of silly sauce to end the hour.

It's a glorious Tuesday—until someone in engineering ruins it by giving Tobin a hotkeys button, which no one, especially Leroy, is happy about. The gang reacts to Taylor Swift appearing on the New Heights podcast, and Tobin strikes a nerve with Jfig and Brittney by claiming her last album wasn't very good. He then continues his hotkey antics and riles Leroy up with Bill Simmons' QB rankings, before closing the hour with bizarre comparisons involving Simone Fontecchio, Kawhi Leonard, and gondolas. Hour Tua kicks off with Dolphins talk and injury updates, including a lingering question: will it ever click with Cam Smith? Tobin once again brings up QB lists, triggering Leroy into an audio-only rage. "Damage Is Done" gets derailed as the crew reminisces about Tobin at a trampoline park, ending the hour in pure silly sauce. Hour 3 spirals quickly from Tobin's headline run into a nostalgic VHS discussion about recording championship games—a lost art, according to Tobin. This somehow segues into an "ass chicken contest," with Tobin delivering a wildly confusing clucker impression. He tries to sneak in the QB list conversation again under the guise of discussing Tua's ranking, and Leroy spirals once more. The crew dives into audio clips from Sean McVay, Mike Vrabel, and Michael Irvin, before a heated debate erupts over whether the Tom Brady statue actually looks like him—Tobin swears it resembles Brock Purdy. Hour 4 opens with continued statue bickering, as the gang fails to reach consensus but engages in plenty of quibbling. Mike McDaniel's comments on team bonding somehow lead to Leroy denying he's a snacker—widely considered the most boxed moment in the show's history. The hour wraps with chaos as Tobin celebrates the Heat's preseason opener being held in Puerto Rico, yelling down the hall to Len for permission to go—only to get a swift, crushing "NO!"

Entering year 4 for Mike McDaniel, this could be the last chance for lots of returning Dolphins that have underperformed in the past.

Dolphins sloppy 4th quarter is expected in preseason. Jaguars kicker makes a 70-yard field goal. It could be a make or break season for guys like Cam Smith, Channing Tindall, and Erik Ezukama.

For Australian netball legend Laura Geitz, it all comes back to wanting the same pair of shoes as her older sister and a competitive drive that only a younger sibling can relate to. Fresh off being named in the Sport Australia Hall of Fame, Geitz chats to Declan Byrne on ‘The Saturday Sledge' about coming late to netball at age 13, what she learned by leading her country and why her eldest son is more excited about NRL icon Cam Smith getting into the Hall of Fame.

Hour Tua starts off with the gang looking forward to the Dolphins joint practicing with the Bears tomorrow. Much to Leroy's dismay Tobin goes through the Dolphins depth chart, Darren Waller is listed as first string tight end. Cam Smith is low in the cornerback depth chart, and it has Tobin and Leroy questioning if he will ever break out. Reggie Bush clearly has some major beef with Mike McDaniel and the gang tries to figure out why? We wrap up the hour with getting into the mixed bag Leroy's hate for Aaron Rodgers continues and Joe Flacco speaks on being old yet healthy.

We kick off the show with the long-standing feud: Leroy vs. Technology, now at a crushing 0-90 after Leroy once again can't log into his computer. The Marlins rally to take the game last night over the Astros and head to Atlanta for a big five-game stretch. Meanwhile, the Stanley Cup makes a stop in Finland with our resident South Florida Polar Bear, Niko Mikola, and Tobin imagines a hilarious scenario where Finnish hockey players are running the government. We also take a quick peek at tonight's NFL preseason action. In Hour Tua, we look ahead to the Dolphins' joint practices with the Bears. Much to Leroy's frustration, Tobin dives into the depth chart, noting Darren Waller listed as the starting tight end and raising concerns about Cam Smith's low placement among the cornerbacks. Then, Reggie Bush's mysterious beef with Mike McDaniel sparks discussion, before we wrap the hour with more of Leroy's Aaron Rodgers slander and Joe Flacco embracing being “old but healthy.” Things get heated in Hour 3 as a toast debate breaks out—Leroy and Brittney team up to argue it's not strictly a breakfast food, while Tobin stands alone with the chat chiming in. Dolphins rookie Patrick Paul shines in camp and lets us know he loves talking smack. With Leroy and JFig off enjoying the high life, Tobin and Brittney hold down the fort and break down Canes camp updates, what to expect from Miami this year, and whether Carson Beck can live up to the hype. Tobin also gets giddy over Nico Jović sailing off to join the Serbian national team. We wrap the show with more Marlins talk and whether the post-Yankees sweep hype was premature—Brittney questions it, but Tobin stays optimistic. Leroy finally returns from rubbing elbows, and we react to Teddy Bridgewater signing with the Bucs after being let go by Miami Northwestern—a tough break all around. And finally, it's Goosies or No Goosies featuring Nancy Lieberman dunking on Jeff Teague over Caitlin Clark, Malik Beasley's Snapchat antics, and the Tkachuk father-son trio landing the NHL video game cover.

The guys spotlight impressive showings from rookies Patrick Paul and Jonah Savaiinaea on the offensive line, as well as leadership emerging from veterans like Bradley Chubb, Zach Seiler, and Austin Jackson. They discuss Mike McDaniel's evolving coaching style, Tua Tagovailoa's command of the offense, and a heated QB2 competition between Zach Wilson and Quinn Ewers. The cornerback room remains a question mark with new vets joining the mix and Cam Smith potentially on the outside looking in.
