New Money Making Conversations episodes drop daily. I want to alert you, so you don’t miss out on expert analysis and insider perspectives from my guests who provide tips that can help you uplift the community, improve your financial planning, motivation, or advice on how to be a successful entrepreneur. Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree?

“I was a rare commodity.” Champ Bailey  Hall of Fame cornerback Champ Bailey joins Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor for a conversation that goes far beyond football. Widely regarded as one of the greatest defensive backs to ever play the game, Champ reflects on the mindset, preparation, and discipline that helped build his legendary career. From his early days in the NFL to becoming a shutdown corner who rarely allowed quarterbacks to challenge him, he opens up about what made him different and the standards he held himself to every time he stepped on the field.  Revealing one of the hardest experiences Champ went through, he shares the tough reality of learning business, that sometimes no matter how good you are at something, if you aren't a decision maker's pick, you won't be given the chance for success. He takes us inside one of the biggest trades in NFL history, recounting his move from Washington to Denver and how that moment reshaped the trajectory of his career. He also revisits his remarkable 2006 season, when he reached the peak of his powers and cemented his reputation as one of football's most feared defenders. He also weighs in on comparisons to fellow all-time great Darrelle Revis, offering his perspective on the debate and what separates elite cornerbacks from the rest. The conversation wouldn't be complete without reliving one of the most iconic plays of his career — the unforgettable 99-yard interception return against New England. Champ gives a play-by-play breakdown of what he saw, what he was thinking, and how close he came to finishing the touchdown that fans still talk about today. We have some good laughs as he takes us inside what was going through his mind running down the field before he was brought down.  Now a father, Champ shares how life and leadership have evolved off the field, discussing family, fatherhood, and the lessons football taught him that he carries into raising his children.  From humble beginnings in Georgia to Canton, Ohio, Champ Bailey's story is one of talent, sacrifice, and perseverance, as he reflects on the self-belief that took him from a small-town athlete with big NFL dreams to one of the most dominant cornerbacks the game has ever seen...sharing invaluable advice for the next generation of athletes and the conversation is truly a masterclass in greatness from one of the game's all-time legends. Don't miss this unforgettable Pivot with Champ Bailey. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this episode of The Jon Gordon Podcast, I sit down with legendary UConn basketball coach Dan Hurley for an honest and energizing conversation about building a championship culture, relentless leadership, and the transformative power of purpose-driven coaching.   From his early days learning from a Hall of Fame father, to guiding players through the rigors of college basketball's toughest moments, Dan opens up about the realities of forming a great team in the era of the transfer portal, NIL, and social media. He shares the values at the core of the UConn program—relentless competitive effort, mindful communication, a dedication to the "pack," and the consistent pursuit of growth—explaining how accountability and care come together in an environment that pushes players past their limits and deepens their belief in themselves.   Throughout this conversation, Dan reflects on the importance of love-tough coaching, the urgency of making an impact on young lives, and the crucial role that faith and self-development play in his own journey. Whether he's describing his mindful approach to team-building, the vulnerability he shares with his athletes, or the discipline and devotion it takes to chase excellence, Dan's story is both inspiring and down-to-earth.   About Dan: Dan Hurley is one of the most accomplished coaches in modern college basketball, leading the University of Connecticut back to national prominence since becoming the program's 19th head coach in 2018. In eight seasons at UConn, Hurley has compiled a 199-75 record, guided the Huskies to six consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances, three Final Fours in four seasons, back-to-back NCAA National Championships in 2023 and 2024, and a national runner-up finish in 2026. His teams won 13 consecutive NCAA Tournament games from 2023-25, with all 12 victories during the championship runs coming by double digits—an NCAA record. Since 2022-23, UConn has posted a 126-28 record, the most successful four-year stretch in program history. Hurley was named the 2024 Naismith College Coach of the Year and BIG EAST Coach of the Year after leading UConn to a school-record 37 wins, BIG EAST regular season and tournament championships, and the program's sixth national title. He owns the highest winning percentage in BIG EAST history (minimum 100 conference games) and has developed 12 NBA players, including four lottery selections, during his tenure. Prior to Connecticut, Hurley transformed programs at Rhode Island and Wagner, leading Rhode Island to consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances and Atlantic 10 regular-season and tournament championships. Across 16 collegiate seasons, he has amassed a 350-180 career record. A Jersey City native, Hurley was raised in one of basketball's most accomplished families. His father, Hall of Famer Bob Hurley Sr., built the legendary St. Anthony High School program, while his brother Bobby won two NCAA championships at Duke. Before entering the college ranks as a head coach, Hurley compiled a 223-21 record in nine seasons at St. Benedict's Prep, developing multiple future NBA players. Known for his relentless competitiveness, player development, and elite two-way teams, Hurley has become one of the defining figures in college basketball. In 2025, he became a New York Times bestselling author with his memoir, Never Stop: Life, Leadership and What It Takes to Be Great.

Rafe's AC struggles—and every company advertising "24/7 emergency service" suddenly has very different ideas about what "24/7" actually means. After hours of phone calls, troubleshooting that mostly consisted of standing around with hands on hips pretending to understand electrical panels, and enough thermostat resets to qualify for an engineering degree, the crew wonders if homeowner subscriptions have officially replaced common sense.Along the way, the gang debates the universal husband instinct of staring at broken appliances until they magically repair themselves, why every emergency service somehow funnels through the same call center, and whether Sherry deserves a raise for patiently answering everyone's increasingly desperate phone calls.Then things take a sharp turn into one of the greatest local stories imaginable.A KFC employee in North County decides company policy can wait after tackling an armed robbery suspect in the parking lot. The crew immediately begins casting Jason Statham as an ex-government operative secretly working the drive-thru window in what instantly becomes the greatest action movie Hollywood still hasn't made.As if that wasn't enough, Lern introduces everyone to a surprisingly emotional Netflix movie that sends the conversation spiraling into the slow death of voicemail culture, while the crew debates which everyday things will disappear as older generations fade out. Landlines? VHS tapes? Random messages that somehow sat in your inbox for three years? Nothing is safe.The crew also tackles one listener's parenting dilemma involving an absolutely terrible kid who has officially worn out his welcome, leading to stories about getting banned from friends' houses growing up, terrifying 90s parents, and why sometimes being the parent means embracing the villain role.Throw in weather panic, broken thermostats, neighborhood legends, retirement community shenanigans, bizarre Florida news, homeowner frustration, nostalgic childhood stories, and enough sarcastic commentary to survive even the hottest week of the year, and you've got another unforgettable episode.Whether you're listening on your morning commute, pretending to work, hiding from your broken AC, or simply looking for your favorite daily comedy show, this episode delivers the laughs, ridiculous conversations, and unexpected tangents you've come to expect.Woody back in St. Louis as the gang relives nearly setting Captain Jim's entire fireworks inventory on fire, accidentally launching explosives toward a trailer packed with even more explosives, and wondering how they somehow got invited back every year.Naturally, that turns into an all-out war over weather apps because apparently your choice between Apple Weather, Google Maps, Waze, and The Weather Channel says everything about your personality. Somewhere during the argument Riz admits he's gaming Waze just to earn imaginary points, Woody questions humanity, and Moon becomes Bing's official spokesperson.Then things somehow get even weirder.The crew debates home ownership versus renting, subscription services invading literally everything, catalytic converter thefts, why landlords secretly deserve medals, and whether calling your landlord to change a light bulb should be considered a crime.From there, the conversation completely derails into horrifying toothbrush habits. Seriously...if your toothbrush looks like it fought in several wars, Lern wants you to know she's apparently one of those people. Dentists everywhere may need a moment after this episode.The laughs keep rolling as Woody shares restaurant recommendations from Pittsburgh, everyone debates St. Louis food loyalties, Rafe discovers Corner 17, and the gang somehow lands on one of the most important questions ever asked:Which restaurant logo would you permanently tattoo on your body for free food for life?Today starts with Global Beatles Day as the crew celebrates one of the biggest moments in music history before arguing over the greatest Beatles songs ever recorded. George fans, Paul fans, John fans...and poor Ringo once again catching strays.Then it's straight into celebrity chaos.Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce wedding rumors explode after reports of a mysterious Madison Square Garden event, and somehow this turns into an actual gambling pool inside the studio.

Tim Kurkjian unveils his list of current players who are as close to Hall of Fame locks as you can get. Do you agree with this week’s Team Tim? Let us know in the comments or on our website! The Yankees are doing something you rarely see at both the plate and on the mound — even with a giant lollipop sitting on the field. Plus, who should be the National League’s starting shortstop in the All-Star Game? Tim makes the case for two contenders, including one particularly intriguing choice. Then it’s time for a tale of two pitchers: Jesus Luzardo and Brad Lord. You can probably guess where that conversation leads. We also dive into On This Date in Baseball History, featuring Aaron Nola tying a record, Toby Harrah (still one of the best baseball names ever) going an entire game without seeing a ball, and Edwin Jackson nearly reaching 150 pitches in a start. We also debate the best last-name “N” pitcher and hitter in Alphabest, open more baseball cards, and wrap things up with a Team Tim that just about every fan should be able to agree with — unless, of course, you really don’t like the Dodgers.

Antonina "Tonya" Samoilova (@tonya.samoilova) ) is a record-setting Ukrainian mountaineer and alpinist known for scaling the world's most formidable peaks while raising global awareness for her homeland. She began her high-altitude mountaineering journey relatively recently in 2018, starting with Mount Kilimanjaro, and quickly transformed into one of Ukraine's most prominent endurance athletes. She is the first Ukrainian mountaineer in history to conquer the five highest mountain peaks in the world—Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse, and Makalu, and the first Ukrainian woman to summit Mount Everest three times (2022, 2023, and 2024). In May 2024, she completed a rare double-header by summiting Everest and Lhotse within 24 hours, setting a national speed record for a female climber. During her 2025 ascent of Kangchenjunga—the world's third-highest peak—she survived running out of supplemental air 200 meters from the summit, pushing through 20 harrowing minutes without oxygen at 8,400 meters. Samoilova uses her global platforms and extreme ascents to act as a prominent voice for Ukraine. In 2022, she was the only climber from Ukraine to unfurl her country's flag at the summit of Everest, broadcasting a message to "Stand with Ukraine". In 2023, she made international headlines by capturing the world's first drone footage from the summit of Everest alongside the Ukrainian flag. She frequently uses her expeditions to raise funds for Ukraine's Armed Forces and volunteer medical battalions, often dedicating her dangerous ascents to fallen Ukrainian defenders and her own family serving on the front lines.   Connect with Tonya: https://www.antoninasamoilova.com/ CAPTAIN: THE ATHLETE'S GUIDE TO BEING AN EXCEPTIONAL TEAM LEADER is now live on Amazon!  CLICK HERE TO ORDER We are constantly asked "where have all the leaders gone?"

Drawing on insights from conversations with CEOs, CTOs, founders, professional athletes, Hall of Fame coaches, and executives from companies including Apple, Google, Amazon, National Geographic, and Radical Candor, Avetis breaks down what separates exceptional leaders from everyone else.He argues that leadership success is rarely about having perfect information, superior intelligence, or flawless strategy. Instead, the leaders who consistently create momentum are those who can make sound decisions despite uncertainty. Avetis shares practical frameworks used by high-performing leaders, including Amazon's "one-way door vs. two-way door" decision model, Jeff Bezos' regret minimization framework, and the importance of principle-based decision-making.The episode also examines how AI is changing the leadership landscape. While artificial intelligence can accelerate analysis and provide recommendations, Avetis explains why human judgment, accountability, and courage remain irreplaceable. Through real-world examples and actionable leadership lessons, he challenges listeners to identify the decisions they've been avoiding and take decisive action before delays become the real obstacle to progress.TakeawaysExceptional leaders distinguish themselves through decision-making, not intelligence alone.The greatest organizational threat is often indecision, not making the wrong decision.Most leadership decisions must be made with incomplete information.Leaders are paid for their ability to navigate uncertainty and create momentum.A mediocre decision made quickly often outperforms a perfect decision made too late.Amazon's "one-way door vs. two-way door" framework helps determine when to move fast and when to proceed carefully.Great leaders commit fully after making a decision rather than remaining trapped in doubt.Principle-based decision-making allows leaders to make consistent decisions faster.Technology leaders often make the mistake of optimizing for technical perfection instead of business outcomes.AI can provide information and recommendations, but accountability and judgment remain human responsibilities.When a decision is inevitable, delaying it often causes more damage than acting on it immediately.Chapters00:00 Why Decision-Making Separates Great Leaders01:12 The Myth of Intelligence and Leadership Success02:13 Why Indecision Damages Organizations03:25 Amazon's One-Way Door vs. Two-Way Door Framework04:38 Lessons from Hall of Fame Coach Dick Vermeil05:15 Radical Candor and the Courage to Act05:55 Technology Leaders and Business Outcomes06:30 Framework #1: Speed Over Perfection07:00 Framework #2: Regret Minimization08:00 Framework #3: Reversible vs. Irreversible Decisions08:55 Framework #4: Principle-Based Decision Making09:55 Why AI Makes Judgment More Valuable11:05 Creating Momentum Through Action11:40 The Decisions You're Avoiding Right Now12:10 When It's Inevitable, Make It Immediate12:45 Closing Thoughts and Final TakeawaysResources and Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.hireclout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.podcast.hireclout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright⁠

In one of the most honest and heartfelt conversations yet on the Built Different podcast, Hall of Fame wide receiver and three-time Super Bowl champion Michael Irvin opens up about the highs of fame, the lows of addiction and brokenness, and the grace of God that changed everything. Behind the spotlight and success was a man wrestling with identity, poor decisions, emptiness, and pain, but in 2001, Michael surrendered his life to Jesus Christ and began a journey of true transformation. In this episode, Michael shares powerful lessons on redemption, responsibility, purpose, and the importance of surrounding yourself with people who point you back to God. From his relationship with Bishop T.D. Jakes to the hard truth that “God didn’t save you for you,” this conversation is a reminder that your past does not disqualify you from being used by God. If you’ve ever felt too broken, too ashamed, or too far gone, Michael’s story will encourage you to come home, embrace grace, and believe that God can still use your life for something greater.

In memory of the great James Borrows we rebroadcasting this episode of "Dont Be Alone with Jay Kogen". We talk with James Burrows about his reign as Hollywood's greatest sitcom director, being the son of Abe Burrows, the genetics of comedy, his book "Directed by James Burrows", "Cheers", "Will & Grace", "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", "Taxi", "Friends", the scripts that make him want to direct, the ones that don't, his amazing memory, his humble beginnings, the decade it took him to learn how to direct, working with geniuses like James L. Brooks, Chuck Lorre, and Kohan & Mutchnick, and Andy Kaufman. And Jimmy explains how his two best friends are Al Michaels and Bruce Springsteen. BIO: James Burrows was one of television's most respected and honored creative talents. Over his distinguished career, Burrows was the recipient of eleven Emmys, five Directors Guild of America Awards, the 1996 American Comedy Awards' Creative Achievement Award, the Television Critics Association's Career Achievement Award, and in 2006 he was inducted into the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame and was honored by the US Comedy Arts Festival with their Career Tribute Award. He was the recipient of 22 nominations for the Directors Guild of America Award, thus bestowing him the honor of being the most nominated director in the history of television at the Guild. He was honored by the DGA with the Inaugural 2014 Lifetime Achievement Award in Television. In November of 2015 he directed his 1,000th episode, which was recognized by a TV Special on NBC in January of 2016. Burrows' success as the director of television pilots was legendary. He directed the first two episodes of the "Frasier" reboot's second season, and wrapped the pilot "Mid-Century Modern" for Fox, which went to series. In January of 2020, he received his fifth DGA Award for directing the Emmy Award-winning show "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #1: Norman Lear's All in the Family and The Jeffersons." He was also asked back to direct "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #3: Diff'rent Strokes and The Facts of Life" in December of 2021. In June of 2022, he published his autobiography, "Directed by James Burrows," which received considerable attention and praise from the industry. Burrows was probably best known as co-creator, executive producer and director of the critically acclaimed series "Cheers." The hit show, which aired for 11 seasons, is tied for the most nominated Comedy series in the Television Academy's history and is in third place for most Emmys received by a Comedy Series. Burrows also received numerous awards for his work on "Will & Grace," "Frasier," "Friends," "Wings," "Night Court," "Taxi," and "Dear John." For the first time in 25 years, he returned to the stage in the spring of 1998 to direct the highly acclaimed "The Man Who Came to Dinner" at the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago, starring John Mahoney. Burrows learned his trade from the very best, the legendary writer/director Abe Burrows, whose noted career included such classics as "Guys and Dolls," "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," and "Cactus Flower." Born in Los Angeles and raised in New York, Burrows graduated from Oberlin College and continued his education at Yale, where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree. Burrows relocated to Hollywood to work as a dialogue coach for "O.K. Crackerby!," a short-lived television series starring Burl Ives. When the show ended, he returned to New York and initially worked as a stage manager before directing several off-Broadway shows, such as "The Castro Complex," and stock productions of "The Odd Couple" and "Never Too Late." In 1974, Burrows moved back to the West Coast when he was invited to visit MTM Productions in Los Angeles and offered a job directing an episode of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show." Mr. Burrows and his wife, Debbie, resided in Los Angeles and between them they had four daughters. He passed away on June 19, 2026. He left an indelible mark on American television. He will be remembered and missed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Griffin Warner talks betting for Monday. Griffin Warner is back on the Pregame.com Podcast Network with episode 52 of What I Bet, the Monday, June 22nd edition, covering the full FIFA World Cup 2026 group stage card and the complete MLB slate before delivering a single best bet to close the show. Griffin opens by confirming the previous episode's winning play, Kansas City Royals at plus 113, a result that held on through a three-run ninth inning for a 6-5 final before moving straight into the World Cup. The first match on the board is Austria taking on defending champion Argentina at noon Central Time in Dallas, where Griffin observed real Austria supporter presence before making the tactical case for Ralf Rangnick's gegenpressing system as the one approach capable of limiting Messi's time and space. Griffin recaps Argentina's Matchday 1 win over Algeria, where Messi survived a red card situation and scored twice in the second half, and frames the Austria plus one and under two and a half combination as potentially live if the press works the way Rangnick, widely credited as the architect of that style and an influence on coaches like Xabi Alonso, designs it to work. Next up is France against Iraq, where Griffin acknowledges France is on another level after Kylian Mbappe's stoppage-time goal from outside the box buried all underdogs and unders in Matchday 1, and sees no compelling case for Iraq to compete. Griffin identifies Norway versus Senegal as the best match of the day, noting Erling Haaland scored twice in Norway's opener while Senegal impressed for 64 minutes against France before conceding a late Mbappe goal, finding the under two and a half and Senegal as a quarter-goal underdog both worth watching. The final group stage match features a must-win Algeria side returning after a 3-0 loss to Argentina taking on a Jordan team whose best European-league player, Mousa Al-Tamari, the so-called Jordanian Messi playing club football in France, did not show up in the opener. Griffin finds the one-goal spread too tight given Algeria's talent depth and expects sharp money to push the line before kickoff. Baseball follows with a ten-game slate preview. Griffin likes the under 8 in Yankees-Tigers with Garrett Cole back and a worrying Detroit bullpen, the under 7.5 in Royals-Rays with Michael Wacha and Drew Rasmussen both going well and a Tampa Bay team not built to score, the Astros at plus 104 against Toronto with Hunter Brown making a second start opposite Shane Bieber's first of the year, a slight Mets lean at plus 103 against the Cubs with Shota Imanaga's fly ball tendencies a concern against Kodai Senga, the White Sox at home over an injury-thinned Guardians roster missing José Ramírez after hamate surgery, a tempting Merrill Kelly plus 122 number against Andre Pallante in St. Louis, the over on Jason Bennett's rookie Coors Field debut for Boston, and a lean toward the under in the Braves-Padres matchup where Grant Holmes faces Michael King, with both bullpens strong and Ronald Acuña Jr. sidelined by a hamstring injury. Griffin closes with his official What I Bet Best Bet: Kansas City Royals under 7.5 at Tampa Bay Rays at minus 120, with a recommendation to sprinkle on the under 4 in the first half as well.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Monday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler open the new week on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a fully loaded Monday edition of Cash That Ticket, working through five MLB matchups and then delivering what Dave calls his strongest NFL win total call of the entire series so far on the Cleveland Browns. The guys come in off a split weekend, both taking their lumps and moving on with the goldfish memory approach that keeps the show rolling. On the baseball side, they start with the pitching matchup of the night in Detroit, where Garrett Cole faces Framber Valdez in a game the market has been moving aggressively, with the total climbing from seven and a half to eight and a half. Munaf lays out Cole's remarkable career dominance over the Tigers, a 10 and 1 record with a 1.84 ERA and the teams he has pitched for going 12 and 2 straight up, while Dave zeros in on the value of Cole at minus 130 and the case for a first five innings under before the bullpens get involved. In Toronto, Hunter Brown faces Dylan Cease in a matchup both hosts see as a first five innings situation, with the Astros bullpen too unreliable to back beyond that point and Cease's home splits revealing an ace-level pitcher who simply has not been getting run support. The Cubs and Mets game carries a significant weather caveat, with a 75 percent rain probability at Citi Field, but if it gets played both hosts fade Kodai Senga despite their deep skepticism about the Chicago offense, reasoning that Senga's recent run of seven home runs allowed and multiple short outings makes the Cubs the better side regardless. In Chicago, Munaf goes with the White Sox as a home underdog behind Anthony Kay, who carries a 3.08 home ERA and gets a Cleveland lineup that struggles against left-handed pitching. The Dodgers and Twins game draws both hosts to the Minnesota side, where Eric Lauer's brutal history against this specific team, thirteen earned runs in ten innings across his last two starts against the Twins, makes laying minus 155 with Los Angeles a non-starter. Both hosts land on the Twins at plus 128, with Munaf adding the Twins team total over in the first five innings. Dave closes the baseball segment with bonus looks at the Reds on the run line against Brendan Woodruff returning from the injured list, a possible under in Texas with Kumar Rocker, and the Red Sox in the first five at Coors. The second half of the episode belongs to the Cleveland Browns, who come in with a win total of six and a half and a roster that looks nothing like the team that went 5 and 12 last season. The Myles Garrett trade to the Rams for Jared Verse and three future draft picks wiped the slate clean, Todd Monken arrives as head coach with prior Cleveland experience and fresh Ravens divisional knowledge, and the quarterback room features Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders and Dillon Gabriel competing for snaps. Dave walks through a schedule that he calls extremely favorable, with the Panthers, Jets, Titans, Saints, Falcons, Colts and Giants all on the docket in winnable spots. He counts at least six wins from those matchups alone and calls this the team he feels most confident about in the win total series. Munaf throws out the bold take that the Browns could legitimately threaten for the AFC North title given that three of the four division teams have new coaches. Both hosts take the over. Best bets feature Dave on the Tampa Bay Rays minus half run in the first five innings behind Drew Rasmussen, who has been one of the most quietly dominant starters in baseball with a 0.88 WHIP and 29 strikeouts over his last three starts, and Munaf on the Yankees and Tigers first five innings under four and a half, backing both starters to control the early innings. Dave adds a weather-dependent bonus on the Cubs team total over four and a half against Senga and the Mets bullpen.

Jim is joined by NFL and NBA writer for Action Network Brandon Anderson to discuss the hall of fame candidacy of former NBA swingman Dan Majerle. First, Jim and Brandon discuss Majerle's stellar performance in the 1993 NBA Finals and how it compares to OG Anunoby's recent Finals performance (12:35). Next, they cover Majerle's surprisingly successful career with Team USA and why Majerle reminds Jim of a poor man's Joe Dumars or Manu Ginóbili (26:00). Finally, they build White Dunker Rushmore (45:51), before making a final call on whether or not Majerle belongs in the HOF (59:29).

On today's episode of the Loaded Radio Daily Breakdown, host Scott Penfold delivers a high-octane, laid-back look at the absolute biggest stories trending across the hard rock and metal grids over the last 48 hours.  First up, we unpack the massive operational news coming out of France tonight. Iron Maiden is taking over the La Défense Arena in Paris to professionally film their upcoming "Run For Your Lives" world tour concert movie. The catch? Management is enforcing a strict phone-free General Admission floor using lockable Yondr pouches. We break down the logistics, the fan reaction, and what this means for the future of stadium rock etiquette. Next, we look at a major shake-up on the European festival circuit. Anthrax and Pantera drum titan Charlie Benante has been sidelined by a right-hand injury. Following strict doctor's orders to rest from June 20 to July 4, Charlie will sit out massive summer milestones including Hellfest, Copenhell, and select dates supporting Iron Maiden. We talk about his phenomenal UK fill-in Darby Todd (Devin Townsend, Robert Plant) and map out Charlie's scheduled return date in Lisbon. Finally, we head to Birmingham to mark an incredibly poignant milestone. As the metal world approaches the one-year anniversary of the Prince of Darkness' passing, Ozzy Osbourne's iconic, bat-winged gothic throne is heading to the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery. Synced with the massively successful "Working Class Hero" exhibition, we look back at the history of the throne—built for his 2024 Hall of Fame induction and last seen on stage at Black Sabbath's legendary final "Back To The Beginning" farewell concert at Villa Park on July 5, 2025.  Stream the daily tracking report now!

George Brett spent 21 years with the Kansas City Royals and never played a single game for anyone else — which in today's era of free agency feels almost quaint. He's the only player in baseball history to win batting titles in three different decades ('76, '80, '90), hit .390 in 1980 — the closest anyone has come to .400 since Ted Williams — and finished with 3,154 career hits before a first-ballot Hall of Fame induction in 1999. Oh, and he led the Royals to their only World Series title in 1985. Not bad for a kid from Hermosa Beach, California. Of course, if you ask most casual fans what they remember, there's a decent chance they skip the batting titles and go straight to the Pine Tar Incident of 1983 — Brett homers off Goose Gossage, the umpire calls him out, and he comes flying out of the dugout in what remains one of the greatest displays of barely-contained human rage in sports history. Frank White had warned him it might be coming, and Brett told him "if they call me out, I'll kill one of those SOB's." Less than a second later he was being physically restrained from doing exactly that to 6'5 home plate umpire Tim McClelland. Back in June of 1976, though, Brett was just 23 years old on the cover of Sports Illustrated, already flashing the talent and competitiveness that would define his career — and Kansas City was clearly building something worth watching. On Past Our Prime, Brett takes us inside all of it — how his brother Ken made him believe a big league career was possible, how rivals like Schmidt, Reggie, and Goose became close friends after years of battles including a bench-clearing brawl with another pal, Graig Nettles of the Yankees, in the '77 ALCS, and why he's called Kansas City home ever since the Royals drafted him in 1971. A Hall of Famer in every sense — George Brett on the Past Our Prime podcast. Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

While most know Ozzie Smith as an MLB Hall of Famer, St. Louis Legend and one of the best defensive players of all-time, during today's conversation, he is simply 'Dad.'    Ozzie Smith & Dustin Smith join Dylan Campione & Nicho Fernandez on today's episode to discuss their father - son bond through baseball and life. From growing up going to the ballpark together, to an unforgettable Hall of Fame induction day, their current joint ventures, and core memories formed from on the field and off the field moments. We can't thank Ozzie and Dustin enough for joining us on the show with their extremely busy schedules and we wish all the fathers listening a very Happy Father's Day!! 

Taylor Swift just gave the most revealing speech of her career. Naturally, we had to spend an hour talking about it. On June 11, 2026, Taylor became the youngest woman ever inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame at just 36 years old. Not only is it a massive career milestone, but the speech itself felt unusually personal, reflective, and intentional.This week, we're going through it line by line: why she chose Steven Spielberg to introduce her, what that choice says about the way she views her own work, the Kate Capshaw quote that quietly unlocks a lot of Taylor's artistic philosophy, her surprisingly direct comments about creativity in an increasingly data-driven music industry, and the emotional moment she thanked her family for betting everything on a move to Nashville.More than an acceptance speech, this felt like Taylor taking stock of the road behind her and making a case for the legacy she hopes to leave behind.

Grace starts the second hour discussing the South Boston Hall of Fame developments. The Memo of Understanding has been released and it look's like the leaks were accurate.  Visit the Howie Carr Radio Network website to access columns, podcasts, and other exclusive content.

Kelvin Washington and Kerry Rhodes continue their deep dive into the New York Knicks’ future—and the conversation gets heated. Kelvin argues the Knicks can’t afford to stay stagnant in a league defined by parity, saying New York should at least listen to offers for Karl-Anthony Towns as the team searches for a true championship path. Whether it’s a blockbuster move involving a superstar like Giannis or a different shake-up, Kelvin makes it clear: running it back with KAT may not be enough. Kerry pushes back, defending Towns’ impact and legacy—going as far as suggesting Hall of Fame-level credentials—while questioning whether moving on is the right call. Kelvin isn’t buying it, challenging the Hall of Fame argument and doubling down on his stance that the Knicks need to be aggressive this offseason. ➡️ Should the Knicks stick with KAT or make a major move? The debate is on.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
