Podcast appearances and mentions of Dana Brown

Brandon explains why he's losing confidence in the Astros GM and whether fans should feel the same way.

ITL welcomes Brandon Scott for Around The NFL as the guys run through the latest headlines and developments from across the league. From training camp storylines to the biggest names making news, B Scott, Reggie, and Figgy discuss what stands out most and which stories are worth keeping an eye on as the season approaches. Then it's B Scott Thoughts, as Brandon explains why he doesn't have much faith in Dana Brown and questions whether the Houston Astros general manager is the right person to lead the organization moving forward. The guys debate Brown's track record, the state of the farm system, and whether Astros fans should share Brandon's concerns. The hour wraps with What's Popping, featuring the biggest stories from sports and entertainment.

ITL dives into the growing excitement surrounding the 2026 FIFA World Cup and debates whether what soccer is experiencing differs from the boost America typically sees during the Olympics. Lopez argues the World Cup effect feels more sustainable, and the guys discuss whether the tournament can create long-term fans and leave a lasting impact on the sport in the United States. They then turn their attention to the Houston Astros, who are beginning a grueling stretch of 13 games in 13 days, and debate whether this run will reveal who the Astros really are. Listeners also weigh in on the QOTD, revealing their least favorite athlete to come from their alma mater or favorite team. Brandon Scott joins the show for Around The NFL, breaking down the latest headlines from across the league before sharing why he has lost faith in Astros general manager Dana Brown and whether Houston fans should be concerned about the organization's direction. What's Popping rounds out the hour with the biggest stories in sports and entertainment. Later, ITL debates what could be the secret sauce that unlocks the Houston Texans offense under Nick Caley, while Lunch-Time Confessions features Lopez recounting his recent colonoscopy experience. The guys then unveil a new game called “Livid at Lopez,” where old Houston Chronicle letters to the editor are read and Lopez must guess which of his columns sparked readers' outrage. The show wraps with a discussion about the Texans' running back room and how much confidence fans should have in Jawhar Jordan heading into training camp. Figgy's Mixtape celebrates Father's Day with stories about what dads really want, some of the greatest dad jokes of all time, and more lighthearted fun from around the internet.
