Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Myles Garrett landing with the Rams and debate whether the Giants should have tried to make a major push for one of the NFL's best pass rushers. The conversation turns into a bigger question about where the Giants actually are as a franchise and whether they are ready to sacrifice premium assets for a win now move. Evan and Tiki compare the Giants' situation to the Rams' aggressive championship approach, weighing the value of Abdul Carter, Brian Burns and future first round picks against the impact Garrett could bring. They also touch on A.J. Brown heading to New England, why that move felt inevitable, and how some teams are willing to operate with a Super Bowl or bust mindset.
Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash debate the most memorable return homes in New York sports history, sparked by Odell Beckham Jr. rejoining the Giants. From Andy Pettitte's Yankees comeback to Mark Messier's Rangers return and Roger Clemens' dramatic Bronx reappearance, the conversation turns into a spirited ranking of which reunions actually mattered.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber ride the wave of Knicks Finals excitement, starting with the messy and expensive scramble for tickets at Madison Square Garden and in San Antonio. With official sales unclear, resale questions growing, and fans weighing flights, hotels, and geo blocking, the road to seeing the Knicks chase a championship is already its own drama. The hour also digs into how reaching the Finals changes the Mikal Bridges trade debate, what a Knicks title would mean for Nets fans, and whether Jalen Brunson can fully claim the King of New York crown. Plus, Evan and Tiki hit on Drake Maye's future after New England's big AJ Brown move, the strangely quiet Jets, Giants kicking news, and a Knicks heavy edition of Posted and Toasted.
Odell Beckham Jr. is back with the Giants, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber explain why the real story is not nostalgia. The signing raises bigger questions about Malik Nabers' health, the Giants' wide receiver depth, and what this offense may actually look like under John Harbaugh. Evan and Tiki debate whether Beckham is a meaningful contributor or simply a low risk veteran invite, while also digging into Juju Smith Schuster, Braxton Berrios, roster competition, and the troubling uncertainty around Nabers' timeline. They also touch on the Yankees closing in on Tampa Bay and whether the Giants should have been in the mix for Myles Garrett.
Do the giants moves show Malik Nabers may not be back until much later in the season? Plus we are a day ahead of Game 1.
Odell Beckham Jr. is back with the Giants, but Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber say the signing is less about nostalgia and more about concern over Malik Nabers. With Nabers recovering from major knee issues and not looking close to full speed, the Giants' sudden wave of veteran wide receiver additions feels like a clear sign that they are preparing for uncertainty. Evan and Tiki break down what Beckham can realistically be at this stage of his career, why Juju Smith Schuster and Braxton Berrios change the conversation, and how the wide receiver room has become a true roster battle. They also debate when Nabers might actually return and why missing significant time would be a major blow to the Giants' 2026 season.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber shift from the Giants' wide receiver questions to a broader look at one of the strangest and most eventful offseasons in recent franchise memory. After a caller suggests Odell Beckham Jr.'s signing helped move attention away from the Abdul Carter and Jaxson Dart controversy, Evan and Tiki explain why the Giants addressing it directly may have been the smarter move all along. They break down how Carter, Dart and John Harbaugh handled the situation publicly, why confronting the issue helped stop it from lingering into training camp, and how this offseason has become a mix of drama, necessary change and legitimate football intrigue. From political noise to major roster decisions, the Giants have been anything but boring.
Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dig into what the Knicks reaching the NBA Finals means for the Mikal Bridges trade debate. Evan admits the deal has officially been worth it for the Knicks, even as it creates a brutal reality for Nets fans if Bridges helps deliver a championship. The segment also revisits the birth of “Knicks in 26,” with Tommy Lugauer's bold prediction looking shockingly accurate one year later. Plus, Evan and Tiki debate Drake Maye's long term ceiling after New England's AJ Brown move and react to a surprising Giants kicking decision.

June 1st dropped like a bomb on the NFL offseason, and the Korner Booth Podcast is breaking down every massive move. The most anticipated trade of the 2026 NFL offseason is finally official: three-time Pro Bowler AJ Brown is headed to the New England Patriots, and the ripple effects are enormous. The Eagles are getting a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-rounder in return, giving Philly the cap flexibility they desperately needed while handing Drake Maye a bona fide WR1 to grow with. With Mike Vrabel having a strong history and relationship with Brown, the fit in New England makes all the sense in the world, and suddenly, the Patriots look like legitimate AFC threats. We're breaking down what this means for both franchises, what's left of the Eagles' receiving corps, and whether AJ Brown's best football is still ahead of him. But that wasn't even the biggest trade of the day. The Cleveland Browns have sent two-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams for Jared Verse and multiple draft picks, including a 2027 first-rounder. Nobody saw this coming — the Browns spent all offseason insisting they weren't trading Garrett, the face of their franchise, and yet here we are. The Rams sent Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round pick, and other draft compensation to bring in the five-time First-Team All-Pro edge rusher. Coming off a record-setting 23-sack campaign, Garrett joins a Rams squad that is clearly going all-in for a Super Bowl run with Matthew Stafford. Los Angeles is building something terrifying on that defense, and the NFC just got a whole lot more dangerous. And then there's the storybook signing that has the whole football world buzzing. OBJ is coming home. The New York Giants have officially signed Odell Beckham Jr., bringing one of the most electric wide receivers in franchise history back to Big Blue. The 33-year-old signed with the Giants on Monday after working out with the team earlier in the day, reuniting with head coach John Harbaugh, who has maintained a close relationship with OBJ. In just 59 games with the Giants from 2014-18, Beckham climbed to second in franchise history in receiving yards, and now he's back to help a wide receiver room dealing with uncertainty around Malik Nabers' knee recovery. Football cannot come back soon enough. All of that, plus more NFL offseason reaction, on another episode of the Korner Booth Podcast.

The Giants gained name value and veteran depth by adding Odell Beckham Jr., Braxton Berrios, and JuJu Smith-Schuster, but the sacrifice may be obvious: this many June receiver moves raises real questions about Malik Nabers and the health of the wide receiver room.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.The Big Question: Why did the Giants sign three wide receivers in one day? The cleanest answer is that the Giants needed return help after Gunner Olszewski's injury, veteran depth for Matt Nagy's offense, and insurance in case Malik Nabers is not ready as quickly as fans hope.OBJ coming back is the emotional headline. Drew and Rob gave Beckham his due as one of the most electric Giants receivers ever, with a résumé that still sits near the top of the franchise record book. But they also pushed the conversation past nostalgia. This version of OBJ is older, has dealt with major injuries, has not produced like the 2015 version in years, and only makes sense if John Harbaugh keeps the role clear.Is Braxton Berrios a real Gunner Olszewski replacement, or just a veteran swing?Berrios makes sense because the Giants needed a return option after Olszewski landed on IR. He has All-Pro returner history, but this episode does not treat him like an automatic fix. The debate is whether there is still enough return-game juice there, or whether the Giants are simply taking a low-risk shot at a familiar veteran profile.Is JuJu Smith-Schuster actually the most useful signing of the three?The OBJ name carries the most emotion, but JuJu may have the clearest path to practical snaps. Drew argued that Smith-Schuster's recent playing time, power-slot profile, and Matt Nagy connection could make him more useful right away than fans expect, especially if the Giants lean into more spread looks or need reliable short-area targets.Are the Giants quietly worried about Malik Nabers?That became the real tension point. Adding OBJ, Berrios, JuJu, and still working out Anthony Miller makes the wide receiver room feel less like normal depth shopping and more like insurance. Drew and Rob pushed back on overreacting to Nabers moving cautiously at a charity softball event, but the larger roster behavior still makes the question fair.The episode also covers Zach Triner being released, Ben Mann becoming the only long snapper currently on the roster, Jarrod Gray joining through the International Player Pathway, Arvell Reese officially signing his rookie contract, and Russell Wilson moving toward CBS Sports.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballsAll episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

In 1956, Italy's most opulent ocean liner went down off Nantucket after a head-on collision in the fog, taking 46 lives and earning a place among the worst maritime disasters in history. But the dying didn't stop there — in the seven decades since, the wreck dubbed the "Mt. Everest of Wreck Diving" has claimed roughly 18 more souls, swallowing the divers drawn to its depths and feeding whispers that something down there is cursed.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/andreadoriaFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Movies like Shaun of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead, World War Z, and TV shows like The Walking Dead, have made the subject of zombies a fairly popular topic over recent years. And while we all know these undead creatures are purely make-believe, the idea of the zombie has been around for thousands of years… and in the Voodoo culture, they've found a way to make zombies a real, horrifying thing. (The Disturbing Truth Behind Voodoo Zombies) *** In July of 1956, the SS Andrea Doria collided with another ship and quickly sank to the bottom of the ocean. Today it is a tourist destination for brave divers who not only want to see something hauntingly beautiful, but who also dare to investigate a wreck that has been deemed by many to be cursed – and for good reason. (The Cursed Remains of the SS Andrea Doria) *** Paranormal author and researcher G. Michael Vasey tells of a personal incident that took place recently where he saw what could be described as a “peripheral person”. (Peripheral People) *** Sir Clive Sinclair might have been a man ahead of his time. The late inventor created all manner of strange and wonderful gadgets – most of which you've likely never heard of. But that doesn't mean you can say they were failures. (The Inventor of Weird Contraptions) *** If the legends are to believed, you'll want to avoid driving down Nan Tucks Lane in East Sussex - unless you don't mind coming into contact with a vengeful ghost. (The Witch of Nan Tucks Lane) *** Where in the bible do we see the story of fallen angels sleeping with women to produce a breed of giants? Most would point to the book of Genesis – but in the unincluded book of Enoch, it tells a more-detailed account, worthy of a horror movie. (The Story of Giants and Fallen Angels) *** Some people collect baseball cards, others coins, and others Pokemon. There's no telling what someone might find enough of an interest in to begin collecting. And collecting books is one of the most common – but when your collecting becomes a compulsion and you can't stop yourself, it can get out of hand. Just ask Thomas Phillipps… the man who was addicted to books… to an extreme level.

It's safe to say Heifetz's Giants had a bad week. Jaxson Dart (AKA J6) is hanging out with Donald Trump, Joe Schoen's cuck chair isn't going anywhere, and there's no good injury news for Malik Nabers. But the guys couldn't spend the entire show laughing at the Giants. They also go over the most breakable NFL records and some listener emails on YouTube voice, more nut kicks, Charley Pride, and the 1897 Cleveland Spiders.

Rich, Brockman and TJ react to Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs taking down the defending champion Thunder in Game 7 of the Western Conference Finals, preview what's in store for the New York Knicks in the NBA Finals against San Antonio, and discuss what's next for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and OKC after their failed bid to win back-to-back titles. Spurs Analyst Sean Elliott tells Rich why even he is shocked that the young San Antonio squad reached the NBA Finals this season, how Victor Wembanyama's drive and determination remind him of Kobe Bryant's relentless competitiveness, former Spurs HC Gregg Popovich's impact on Wemby's development, and the keys to an SA NBA Finals win over the New York Knicks. Rich and the guys weigh in on Odell Beckham Jr's reunion with the New York Giants. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The Giants had a bunch of apology press conferences
Evan and Shaun dive into a wild New York sports day, from the Knicks facing national doubt ahead of the NBA Finals to the Giants stunning fans by bringing Odell Beckham Jr. back home. The conversation captures the mix of excitement, skepticism, nostalgia, and chaos that only New York sports can deliver. The episode breaks down why the Knicks deserve more respect, why Spurs fans may not deserve another title, and whether Jalen Brunson can silence critics on the biggest stage. Plus, the Giants add Braxton Berrios and Odell, Russell Wilson heads to CBS instead of the Jets, and callers debate whether Beckham's return is a feel good reunion or a risky distraction.
Odell Beckham Jr. made it clear he would love a Giants reunion, but after a workout featuring multiple wide receivers, Big Blue signed Braxton Berrios instead. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash react to what the move says about Beckham's chances, why Berrios makes sense as a return option, and whether the Giants are avoiding the circus that could come with bringing OBJ back. The conversation also turns to Malik Nabers participating in a charity softball and dodgeball event while dealing with injury concerns, sparking a debate about unnecessary risks for star players. Evan and Shaun then take the show into classic sports radio chaos, comparing George Washington to NFL coaches, stumbling through World War I history, and circling back to why Knicks fans believe their team is playing like a champion.
Evan and Shaun give their initial thoughts on the Knicks-Spurs NBA Finals, which begin on Wednesday evening. Throughout the show, Rosie breaks the glass to tell them about the Giants signings of not only Braxton Berrios but Odell Beckham Jr. and JuJu Smith-Schuster. Shaun also has a rough few minutes in regards to figuring out when both World War One and the Revolutionary War began.
