Evan and Tiki turn a messy headline into a game: how many times would the media actually press Roger Goodell about Steve Tisch and the newly released Jeffrey Epstein email exchanges. The league drops a brief statement, then the room goes right at it, including questions from Judy Battista and Albert Breer. The guys react to Goodell's careful wording, debate what an actual NFL “fact-finding” process even looks like, and whether “not illegal” can still be “bad enough” under the personal conduct policy. Plus: quick hits on the Rooney Rule, Goodell going out of his way to praise officiating, and the league's thoughts on Bad Bunny and the halftime spotlight.
After a quiet Friday news dump, the focus turns to the Steve Tisch connection to the Epstein emails and how the NFL chose to handle it. The crew plays a game predicting how many times Roger Goodell would actually be asked about the situation, then listens back as the commissioner faces three pointed questions at the podium. From the league's vague preemptive statement to Goodell's careful non answers, they break down what was said, what wasn't, and what an NFL “investigation” even means in this context. The conversation expands to personal conduct standards, how far the league should go with owners, and whether this opens a much bigger can of worms. Along the way, they also react to other Goodell topics from the podium, including the Rooney Rule, officiating, tanking, and the Super Bowl halftime show.
The mystery around the abduction of Nancy Guthrie from her bed while she slept sounds worse with every passing hour. NBC's Savanah Guthrie has released a statement of hope even as authorities say they found blood and signs of a struggle in the home. We don't know a motive and they haven't named a person of interest. This is awful. A whole bunch of singers said crazy things about ICE and such at the GRAMMY Awards Sunday but one in particular stands out as the dumbest. Now she may get visitors to her house taking her up on her offer that there are no borders and nobody is illegal on any property. This could get good. Dan Bongino returns to podcasting and made a statement that's as lame as his work at the FBI. In sports, the Royals have a new tv deal that should work out for you. KU is rolling as Darryn Peterson drops two huge three pointers at the end of the game at Tech. But Flory was the story of this one as KU's defense is just ridiculous right now. Watch out for this team! Mizzou has two McDonald's All Americans for the first time. Kelvin Sampson laments the current rules of transfer and NIL, Roger Goodell is asked about Bad Bunny playing halftime and former Royal Chris Getz is now GM of the White Sox and announces an interesting change he made in the plumbing of the team's locker room. It's our Final Final and you have to hear this.
The New York coaching carousel is spinning as Frank Reich reportedly in Florham Park, fueling expectations that the Jets will finalize their offensive coordinator search within the next 24 hours. The Giants have hired Matt Nagy to lead their offense. Beyond Jets & Giants, we do everything from mystery drones over the Atlantic to Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick's Hall of Fame snubs. On the serious side, we feature Roger Goodell's presser on the Steve Tisch/Epstein emails and the horrible news out of Arizona, where authorities are investigating the suspected abduction of Savannah Guthrie's mother.
Adam Schefter points out both Robert Kraft and Bill Belichick were snubbed in their first year of Hall of Fame eligibility. We talk Al's latest video of mysterious drones over the Jersey shore. Plus, Tommy DeVito's dad checks in as his son prepares for the Super Bowl with the Patriots. Between C-Lo's has Roger Goodell addressing Steve Tisch's Epstein-related emails. We end the hour with the shocking news out of Arizona, where authorities now believe Savannah Guthrie's mother was abducted from her home.
Roger Goodell met the media and was asked about Steve Tisch exchanging emails with Jeffrey Epstein, and Bill Belichick not getting elected to the Hall on the first ballot. Aaron Boone was on The Carton Show and they talked about his Eagles fandom.
Roger Goodell weighs in on the growing Hall of Fame controversy as Joe and Hollywood debate the possibility of Robert Kraft getting in before Bill Belichick. Joe says that outcome would be a gut punch for Belichick and questions whether owners should even be eligible for the Hall at all. The discussion also turns to reports that Belichick and Jordon Hudson are planning a party the same night as the induction ceremony, which the guys joke could turn into a pretty awkward celebration
The 4th and final hour of the Evan & Tiki Show dives deep into the NFL coaching carousel and the local fallout. Evan and Tiki break down the Giants and Jets offensive coordinator searches, debate candidates like Kliff Kingsbury, Jim Bob Cooter, and Alex Tanney, and react to how wrong everyone was in coaching bingo. The guys also tackle big-picture questions for Roger Goodell, including tanking, ownership controversies, and league accountability, plus spirited calls on the Jets' historic playoff drought, Giants ownership drama, Knicks trade buzz, Islanders vs Rangers debates, and classic Evan & Tiki banter to close out the show.
Chris “Big Mac” McMonigle finally gets his long-awaited meeting with Yankees manager Aaron Boone, and the guys predict absolute awkwardness and hero worship. That leads into a hilarious recap of a night at UBS Arena, including a fake speakeasy setup, Jon Ledecky playing it cool, and Big Mac getting ribbed on the big screen with an all-time mispronunciation of his name. The segment also dives into Tommy's Islanders rant being used as a full-blown hype video, how nervous that made him once the puck dropped, and why that moment meant more than any billing order on the scoreboard. From there, the conversation turns serious again with callers weighing in on the Steve Tisch situation, what Roger Goodell can actually do, and how many real questions the commissioner will face about it. It wraps with broader league talk, including revenue sharing, small-market realities, and why the NFL model works where baseball continues to struggle.
Brooks Koepka's Return | Farmers 2026 Preview | Kraft Has What on Goodell? | Landman Season FinaleOn the show we chat through the Brooks Koepka return to the PGA Tour at the 2026 Farmers Insurance Open. Did he really call Tiger Woods first to let him know of his return the the PGA Tour? Could it have been Fred Couples? We chat through Scottie Scheffler's first win of the season. Should we just bet Scottie every week? We think this bet wins money in 2026. For the Superbowl, we're all in on the Seahawks. What happened to Drake Maye in the playoffs? He seems to be a little overhyped with the easy schedule and didn't deliver MVP goods in the playoffs. Are we sure the Robert Kraft didn't allegedly say that he was thankful for the easy season and Roger Goodell was certainly not on the Orchids of Asia or Epstein lists? Finally, we get into Landman Season 2 and the finale. This seems like a bit of an Instagram show of Taylor Sheridan just showing off all the time like they did with Billions. The finale felt like a Chip and Joanna Reveal show and it was a horribly written season. However, as long as Billy Bob is in Season 2, we'll be all in!! Cheers.

“I closed the biggest deal of my life playing Candy Crush on my phone over Zoom… I could do this in my sleep at this point.” — Lauren Goodell One moment, Lauren Goodell was operating at the highest level — thriving in corporate tech, leading the room, closing deals most people never touch. And then, something became clear. The work wasn't hard anymore. The risk was gone. The challenge had faded. What once demanded everything she had now required very little. In that moment, her future shifted. Not because she failed — but because she succeeded. And she knew that mastery without growth is just another form of standing still. So, she walked away. What followed wasn't instant clarity. It was friction. Failure. Momentum earned the hard way. Today, Lauren is building technology that handles the prep work she got bored of — so people can focus on the conversations that actually matter. That moment — the quiet realization — is where her story really begins. Connect with her on LinkedIn & learn more at getZinnia.ai Success doesn't always signal arrival. Sometimes, it's the cue to begin again. Anaïs Nin said it best: “And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.”

O'Leary sits down with Ken Belson, New York Times sportswriter and author of the Amazon #1 Bestseller Every Day Is Sunday: How Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, and Roger Goodell Turned the NFL into a Cultural and Economic Juggernaut (Grand Central Publishing, October 14, 2025).

Runtime: Approximately 46 minutes Release Date: October 27, 2025 Guest: Ken Belson, New York Times Sports Business Correspondent and author of Every Day Is Sunday: How Jerry Jones, Robert Kraft, and Roger Goodell Turned the NFL into a Cultural and Economic Juggernaut (Grand Central Publishing, October 14, 2025) WHAT YOU'LL LEARN The Modern NFL's Foundation (1993-Present) Why 1993's labor agreement—not a Super Bowl or dynasty—marks the true beginning of the modern NFL How free agency, salary caps, and 50-50 revenue sharing created unprecedented labor peace The pivotal role of Steelers owner Dan Rooney and Broncos owner Pat Bowlen in shaping the league's economics Jerry Jones: The Relentless Salesman How Jones "taught the NFL how to sell" despite alienating fellow owners The Rupert Murdoch deal that transformed television economics forever Robert Kraft's assessment: Jerry can "charm a dog off a meat truck" Why Jones doesn't chase money—he chases the chase The "Cowboys peanut butter" philosophy: monetizing everything not nailed down Robert Kraft: The Real Estate Wizard The brilliant 7-year strategy to acquire the New England Patriots How Kraft bought parking lots, then the stadium, then finally the team—leaving owners with nothing Why Connecticut and Providence offered sweetheart deals, but Kraft stayed in Foxborough Patriot Place: The revolutionary stadium-as-real-estate-development model How Kraft's unshared revenue strategy changed sports franchises forever Roger Goodell: The Senator's Son Goodell's childhood ambition letter: "I want to be NFL Commissioner" The political instincts he absorbed from his U.S. Senator father Why some NFL staffers called him "too nakedly ambitious" Goodell's strategy: schmoozing with owners at every opportunity Why can't he find his own replacement (or won't step down)? Prediction: The next commissioner will be a media expert, not a football insider Bill Belichick & The Jets Resignation The Leon Hess succession crisis that drove Belichick away from New York Was there tampering between Kraft and Belichick? The evidence examined Why Paul Tagliabue warned teams to "tread carefully" with Belichick The compensatory draft picks the Jets received—and why they got the short end The Los Angeles Stadium Saga Inside the 2016 Houston meeting, where Jerry Jones lobbied relentlessly for Stan Kroenke's vision Why the Rams-only bid beat the dual Raiders-Chargers proposal Paul Allen's rare appearance—and how "The Oracle" swung critical votes Jerry Jones, celebrating with a tumbler of scotch: "He's the salesman. He got his catch that day." How the NFL turned two stadium problems into one world-class solution Gambling's Stranglehold on Sports Why Jones and Kraft invested in gambling platforms before legalization How the NFL profits from sponsorships and game data sales—not direct gambling revenue The disturbing shift: from communal Sunday football to atomized, real-time phone betting "The book always wins. The sportsbook's going to win. Now you've got people pissed at the NFL." Brian's fear: economic downturns + player financial struggles = integrity crises The Cleveland baseball team scandal, Jontay Porter's lifetime ban, and the NCAA's dangerous new policy Why allowing college athletes to bet on football is "streamlining the pipeline from amateur athletics to federal indictment" The Future of the NFL Why 97% of NFL fans never attend a game—and what that means for the league's priorities "Fans in the stadium are essentially props for TV broadcasts" The COVID revelation: Cardboard cutouts worked fine. Do stadiums even matter? Cable TV's death and streaming's fragmentation: How will fans afford to watch? The NFL's challenge: squeezing every penny without breaking fan loyalty KEY QUOTES On Jerry Jones: "Jerry taught us how to sell." — Carmen Policy, former 49ers President On Robert Kraft: "He could charm a dog off a meat truck." — Robert Kraft on Jerry Jones On Gambling: "We went from sitting down with your dad with a clicker, maybe a can of beer, your jersey on, and you watched for three hours. You watched a drama, basically. Now you're betting on a tight end you don't care about because he's on your fantasy roster. Well then you add money to it, and it really amplifies the tension." "The book always wins. The sportsbook's going to win—more chances than not. So now you got people pissed at the NFL or pissed at a player or a team." On Roger Goodell's Future: "My suspicion is that it'll be a media person. That's where the league is now. Two-thirds of its revenue comes from media and sponsorships, not from tickets and beer." On Fans: "Roger likes to say that 97% of NFL fans never go to a game. The fans in the stadium now are essentially props for TV broadcasts." TOPICS/CHAPTERS Introduction & Book Overview Why 1993? The Labor Deal That Changed Everything Jerry Jones: The Man Who Brought Rupert Murdoch to the NFL Robert Kraft's Brilliant Patriots Acquisition Strategy Patriot Place & The Real Estate Revolution Roger Goodell's Path: From Senator's Son to Commissioner Bill Belichick's "I Resign as HC of the NYJ" Napkin Moment The 2016 Los Angeles Stadium Decision: Jerry Jones vs. Jerry Richardson Gambling's Corrosive Effect on Sports Integrity The Future of NFL Leadership & Media Fragmentation Closing Thoughts ABOUT THE GUEST Ken Belson is a sports business correspondent for The New York Times, where he has covered the NFL, sports economics, and major league developments for over a decade.

WNBA The semi-finals are in full effect, the Lynx's head coach was kicked out after going up the ref after one of her star player Colliers was injured, it was a clean play, but she was rushed out on the court. Lynx and Mercury are tied in their series Aces lead the Fever 2-1 The series continues this evening. NFL Ravens lost, the Colts are undefeated and the Eagles blocked not one, but two field goals. The noises that came from my living room after that blocked kick I'll never forget. NFL is still taking the games international with the Steelers and Vikings playing in Ireland. Goodell has said he would love to have an international game every week next season. I have to say I am not hating a 10am game and I do not want to move to California. College Football ND beat the pants off of the razorbacks THE Ohio State won.. Again 4-0 Maryland is 4-0 Penn State lost to Oregon, and it was a snoozefest until the end of the game with 2OT. FL state VA game.. Rushing the field again it puts everyone at risk, the security, students, players of both teams etc.. MLB Playoffs BABY!! Cal Raleigh- Catcher Switch hitter- with 60 HR for the season most of all time Otani- Really taking it to town this year with hitting and pitching. First Ammendment- Something we all just depend on for protections of free speech The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prevents Congress from making laws respecting an establishment of religion; prohibiting the free exercise of religion; or abridging the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the freedom of assembly, or the right to petition the government for redress of grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights. This is such a cornerstone of our everyday lives and people don't even realize how important it is. People should never be surprised at our current governments want to muzzle this right for everyone in this country to seek total control over what you can say, do, and how the exchange of ideas can happen. What I find most disturbing is that these cowards hide behind the law to spread vitriol and hate speech but when the opposite happens with any push back with facts and common sense it is met with removing of rights and limitations. The Jimmy Kimmel incident was the first attempt, do not think that this will be the last, the biggest broadcast network decided it did not like Kimmel the FCC chair said he should be removed and then the american people finally woke up that this was not ok, cancelled subscriptions called businesses to advertise with Sinclar and then 4 days later, Kimmel was back on the air, to very high ratings.

Send us a text On this episode, we go back to the NFL, where one of the biggest stories off the field is Jon Gruden's ongoing lawsuit against the NFL and Roger Goodell, where he alleges that the NFL and Goodell “engaged in a malicious and orchestrated campaign to destroy the career and reputation of Jon Gruden.” To break down the big new developments in the case and what might happen next (and the reaction from within the league), I'm joined by Jon Gruden's lawyer, Adam Hosmer-Henner, and Don Van Natta, the investigative reporter for ESPN who has been covering and uncovering this case since day 1.

The Yankees are drawing Steelers comparisons—regular season warriors, playoff question marks—as Judge's prime ticks by without a ring. Boomer and Gio stayed optimistic, insisting tonight's lefty-heavy lineup will spark an offensive breakout, though Gio admitted it feels like another “here we go again” October. Jerry's update had Boone defending Weaver, Morash raging against analytics, and elsewhere the Dodgers, Cubs, and Tigers all flexed in Game 1s. Joe Benigno even lit up Goodell for picking Bad Bunny at halftime.

Chuck Todd unpacks the troubling patterns that emerge after every mass shooting, from how the public rushes to confirm their priors to how culture wars are inflamed when a shooter's identity becomes politicized. With the FBI investigating the latest tragedy as a possible hate crime, trust in law enforcement once again splits along partisan lines, reflecting the deeper polarization running through government agencies and public perception alike. Then, Todd previews his conversation with DeMaurice Smith as he turns to the looming era of labor strife in professional sports—examining how the NFL operates as a “socialist experiment,” how name-image-likeness deals and the transfer portal are shifting the mindset of athletes, and why collective bargaining disputes will be on the horizon.Then, Chuck Todd is joined by former NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith to discuss his new book Turf Wars and the untold battles behind the modern NFL. Smith reflects on how he—despite never playing the game—won the trust of star athletes, navigated intense resistance from owners, and fought for free agency and labor protections. He shares candid stories of his uphill battle to lead the NFLPA, from owners attempting to block his election to risking his career to stand with players.Smith also offers a rare look inside the billionaire owners' club, likening it to a feudal kingdom where prestige and profit outweigh fairness. He reveals how Roger Goodell consolidated power, why Jerry Jones remains a polarizing force, and how owners exploit their franchises like personal toys.

Chuck Todd is joined by former NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith to discuss his new book Turf Wars and the untold battles behind the modern NFL. Smith reflects on how he—despite never playing the game—won the trust of star athletes, navigated intense resistance from owners, and fought for free agency and labor protections. He shares candid stories of his uphill battle to lead the NFLPA, from owners attempting to block his election to risking his career to stand with players.Smith also offers a rare look inside the billionaire owners' club, likening it to a feudal kingdom where prestige and profit outweigh fairness. He reveals how Roger Goodell consolidated power, why Jerry Jones remains a polarizing force, and how owners exploit their franchises like personal toys. From hidden revenues to weak contract protections, Smith explains why the NFL has thrived financially while leaving players vulnerable. And with college athletes gaining leverage and younger NFL players more empowered, Smith warns that a seismic labor showdown between players and owners may be on the horizon.Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 DeMaurice Smith joins the Chuck ToddCast03:00 Why write Turf Wars?

From her best friend's parents encouraging her to pursue college, to mentors who introduced her to organizational psychology, to leaders who gave her early opportunities, Shanna embodies the ripple effect of empowerment.Her career reflects resilience and innovation—especially when she pioneered flexible work arrangements to balance motherhood with professional growth. At Druva, she now champions learning strategies that integrate cutting-edge AI with the human connection that truly drives growth. Shanna believes that curiosity, trust, and vision are the key ingredients for creating “superhuman teams” that achieve beyond individual performance.She challenges leaders to ask not just what success looks like, but what it should feel like, and to create the white space needed for reflection, learning, and sustainable performance.

What Does Extreme Heat Do?Since the pre-industrialized era, the global temperature has increased by about one degree Celsius. Although one degree may not seem significant, the consequences are increases in the intensity of heatwaves and drier conditions. In addition, in dense urban settings buildings trap and absorb this heat and cause even a higher area of heat relative to surrounding areas. The heat island effect is also exacerbated by the lack of greenery. With current fossil fuel emissions, increased heating of 1.5 degrees Celsius or more is predicted to happen globally within this decade. Among the most promising solutions to combat extreme heat in cities is the effort to promote natural systems – trees, creeks, and parks in cities and creating resilience hubs where people can stay cool and safe from dangerous temperatures. Because heat impacts individuals in multiple ways, the response to extreme heat must also be multifaceted. Responses to Extreme HeatThere are many possible responses to extreme heat. On an individual level, for example, when human body temperature rises to the point of heat stroke, individuals are subject to serious illness or in some cases, death. Heat poses a particular threat when the body is physically unable to cool down. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), between 2000 and 2016, 125 million more people were exposed to heat waves than in the period before 2000. Actions individuals can take to reduce heat exposure include avoiding going outside at peak temperatures, reducing the heat inside of homes, and if reducing heat at home is not an option, going where air conditioning is available. For some vulnerable populations like farmworkers, staying inside where there is air conditioning is not an option. In some states, like California, a temperature of 80 degrees Fahrenheit initiates the California's Heat Illness Prevention Standard, which is enforced by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The Standard requires that training, water, shade, and rest be provided to outdoor workers. Currently, there is no federal protection or policy for workers who may experience extreme heat. While a proposed rulemaking is in the works, it may take years before a final regulation is completed.How to Establish Resilience and Safe HubsIn the meantime, there are key actions that anyone can take, including something as simple as making extreme heat a topic of discussion as part of increasing awareness. By spreading awareness and recognizing the consequences of extreme heat, politicians and policymakers will be much more likely to pay attention to the issue and to community necessities. Global and local temperatures are continuing to rise, and, as a result, it is important to have community access to locations with air conditioning systems, heat pumps, and safety hubs particularly in communities whose residents do not have home air conditioners. Hubs may include libraries, churches, schools, and nonprofits which can be essential for providing both a cool place to shelter and a source of information and assistance.Shifting to more green spaces is also an important solution to mitigate the impacts of increased heat. In New York, the Highline is a great example of transforming an old historic freight rail line into a park filled with rich greenery. The incorporation of nature into a previously urban dense space provides the city with more trees and access to green space. Addressing extreme heat in cities requires new approaches and creative thinking for a suite of implementation strategies to provide cooling to the public and creation of green space. Who is Our GuestJeff Goodell is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet, which focuses on responses to extreme heat. Goodell is also a journalist who has been covering climate change for more than two decades at Rolling Stone, The New York Times Magazine, and many other publications. He has a BA from the University of California, Berkeley, and an MFA from Columbia University in New York.Further ReadingLindsey and Dahlman, Climate Change: Global Temperatures (Climate.org, 2024)Dickie, Climate Report and Predictions (Reuters, 2023)California's Heat Illness Prevention Standard (Cal OSHA)Krueger, Heat Policy for Outdoor Workers (The Network for Public Health Law, 2023)Heat and Health (WHO, 2018)Heat Island Effect (The United States EPA)Climate Resilience Hubs (Communities Responding to Extreme Weather)Sustainable Practices | The Highline (The Highline)For a transcript of this episode, please visit https://climatebreak.org/alleviating-urban-heat-traps-with-jeff-goodell/
