Hosted by Grant Mona, this episode brings you two distinct looks at major Southern California teams — a new offensive direction in the NFL and a tough loss in the NBA — featuring key media availability, reactions, and context straight from the locker room and press room. Segment One — Mike McDaniel's Intro Press Conference Grant opens the show reacting to the official introduction of Mike McDaniel as the Los Angeles Chargers' new offensive coordinator. McDaniel, 42 and previously head coach of the Miami Dolphins, spoke about his vision for the Chargers' offense under Jim Harbaugh, emphasizing creativity, balance, and getting the best out of franchise quarterback Justin Herbert. McDaniel noted that part of his plan involves reducing Herbert's workload at times to maximize his impact and keep him fresher in key situations — a strategy aimed at boosting efficiency after the Chargers finished 12th in total offense (333.8 yards per game) and 20th in scoring (21.6 points) this past season. Grant breaks down how McDaniel's philosophy could reshape the Bolts' attack and what fans should expect as the 2026 campaign ramps up. Segment Two — Lakers Speak After Blowout Loss to Cavaliers In the second segment, Grant digs into the Lakers' tough road loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, a game where L.A. fell 129–99 and were outplayed for large stretches. The Lakers trailed early and were outscored significantly in the third quarter, reflecting a night when offense and defense both lagged, with Cleveland shooting better and controlling the glass. Hear from: JJ Redick, who addressed the media about the team's execution struggles and acknowledged that the Lakers were simply beaten on this night. LeBron James, reflecting on effort and intensity, and what the team must fix going forward. Additional Lakers voices discussing key moments where the game slipped away and how the group plans to respond after a disappointing performance.

Herbert Geiss ist gerade mal 20 Jahre alt und kommt frisch aus der Ausbildung, als er von seinem Onkel ein kleines Unternehmen für Schausteller-Bedarf übernimmt. Geiss ändert das Konzept – und baut innerhalb von rund 20 Jahren mit Deiters Europas größten Player für Karnevals-, Halloween- und Partybedarf auf. Im OMR Podcast verrät der Unternehmer, mit welchen Konzepten er inzwischen ganzjährig mehrere tausend Quadratmeter Ladenfläche bespielt, mit welchen Tricks er Karneval sogar in Städten wie Berlin oder Dresden beliebt machen will – und ob er schon mal darüber nachgedacht hat, Kostüme im Look seines Cousins Robert Geiss anzubieten.
Jeff Smith and Carson Odegard welcome Eben Herbert from the New Zealand Hunter Exchange to compare notes on waterfowling half a world apart—what shocked him about the Suisun Marsh, why California's public access and species variety feel endless, and how late-season calling here differs from New Zealand's “call hard, break 'em from the sky” approach. We hit rice country pits (illegal back home), foggy boat rides to island blinds, a tough-but-worth-it California quail mission, and even a little crab-and-rockfish bounty from Bodega Bay.Episode highlightsScale & access: the density of clubs and marsh across Suisun vs. the smaller, scattered options in NZ—plus why CA birds have “a hundred places to go.”Calling culture: aggressive hail-calling to pull distant flocks in NZ vs. whistles and lighter calling for pressured late-season birds in CA.Pit blinds & rice: first time hunting California rice; why true pit blinds are illegal in New Zealand.Fog, flood & plan B: how tule fog and high water forced mid-morning moves—and still produced solid straps.Taste test: why California ducks eat milder (hello, rice fat) than NZ birds on invertebrate-heavy diets.Checklist species: pintail, wigeon, teal, a Ross's goose, and the ongoing quests for mallard and speck before wheels up.

Herbert, Hampton, Ladd to
On this Humpday show: - Miami Heat beat the Sacramento Kings - Miami Dolphins will announce their new head coach Jeff Halfley on Thursday - Mike McDaniel named new offensive coordinator of the Los Angeles Chargers - NFL Pettiness with owners and GM'S throwing former coaches under the bus - Was the Heat right in not giving Jimmy Butler that extension last season? - Wednesday Mix Bag - Our favorite humpday game "Rats Off A Ship"
Former Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel has been hired as the LA Chargers new Offensive coordinator. He will be working with QB Justin Herbert and that has our boy Tobin hating, being petty and hoping that he fails as OC with Herbert.
We recap the NFL playoffs and the coaching carousel, but mostly we focus on Josh Allen's troubles and Justin Herbert's allergy to winning big games. Brad also tries to process the trauma of the Patriots being just one win away from another Super Bowl, on top of the Knicks being officially a mess. So, he's distracting himself by looking ahead to seeing The Outsiders on Broadway this Thursday.

Send us a textThe Ramirez Brothers will break down the Chargers Wild Card matchup against the New England Patriots. The Chargers' season comes to a brutal end in Foxborough after a 16-3 loss to the New England Patriots in the Wild Card round.Despite a dominant performance from the defense, the Chargers' offense completely collapsed. Justin Herbert and the offense failed to capitalize on multiple opportunities, even after being gifted turnovers and short fields. Play-calling, protection, and execution all fell apart when it mattered most.Was this the breaking point for offensive coordinator Greg Roman? Should changes be coming after another playoff performance where the offense couldn't get anything going?

Today's episode in our occasional series with historian Robert Saunders on significant political anniversaries looks at the event that blew British politics apart at the start of 1886. The ‘Hawarden Kite' – when William Gladstone's son Herbert floated the idea that his father had committed to Irish Home Rule – split the Liberal party, upended political allegiances and set the country on the path to potential civil war. How did it happen? Why were passions running so high on the question of Ireland? And how does it all compare to Brexit? Out tomorrow on PPF+: Part 2 of David's conversation with Robert in which they take the story of the fight over Irish Home Rule up to the crisis of 1912-1914.

Lee Hacksaw Hamilton shares his “Hacksaw History” highlighting his career from Long Island to Ohio University, upstate New York, Cleveland, Phoenix and San Diego. We discussed Lee's early days doing play-by-play in minor league hockey, minor league baseball, and as a TV journalist. Then it was on to Cleveland to broadcast big time WHL pro hockey, a competitor with the NHL at that time. Then on to Phoenix KTAR where he lit the Valley of Sun on fire. In the late 1980s, San Diego called and invited Lee to be the play-by-play voice of the San Diego Chargers and also to host a sports talk show on XTRA 690. That sports talk show was the very beginning of an innovative all sports talk radio station that featured many names including Jim Rome, Steve Hartman, Chet Forte, Coach John Kentera, Billy Ray Smith, Scott Kaplan, Philly Billy Werndl, Jim Laslavic, Pat Curran and many more. This episode was originally aired as part of the John Riley Project on July 20, 2022. The History of Sports Talk Radio Lee shared his Long Island roots and the start of his radio news/DJ career in his college days on a radio station in Appalachia. After a great run broadcasting pro hockey in Cleveland, he took his talents to the desert to announce Arizona State football and basketball. Hacksaw also hosted a sports talk show on KTAR in Phoenix shocking the locals with critical comments of ASU's football suspension, the Suns getting blown out in the first round of the 1981 NBA playoffs, and the ineptitude of Bowie Kuhn during the 1981 MLB strike. This was the start of the “Best 15 Minutes in Radio.” This was the start of “Putting Topics on the Table.” “React!” Lee was determined to grab his listeners by the throat and hold them for 4 hours of compelling sports talk radio. Hacksaw's reputation in Arizona led to a 1986 phone call from the Noble Broadcast Group in San Diego to be the San Diego Chargers play by play guy and start a sports talk show on the Mighty 690. At the time the station was broadcasting rock n roll and Wolfman Jack. Little did they know that things were going to radically change in the next few years. Lee was the only sports guy in the entire station, and he started with a blank slate. How in the hell was he going to pull this off? He started by creating a 9-hour NFL Sunday broadcast with a 2-hour Countdown to Kickoff pre-game show, the live game, and then a post-game show with caller participation. The Mighty 690 Sports Talk Radio Meanwhile, every afternoon drivetime Hacksaw hosted his talk radio show using many of his provocative techniques to drive listenership. Lee was a sensation bringing sports facts, stats, and opinions in the late 1980s. He was the internet before the internet was a thing. After a brief transition to sports and news talk, the station went 100% sports starting in 1989. The Mighty 690 was the 3rd radio station in America to go all sports, and the first on the west coast. 690 had a “blowtorch signal” that carried Lee's show from “Baja to the Canadian Rockies” As 690 went all sports, many new voices took the microphone to create a wide variety of opinions and styles on sports talk: Jim Rome came on board to start his Scrub Saturday show. He later got the night shift right after Hacksaw's show, working on developing his style, his smack, and his clones. Rome later went on to national fame, but did you know Hacksaw was first offered the national gig prior to Rome but he turned it down. Steve Hartman joins the station and with Lee's recommendation he was paired up with former Monday Night Football producer Chet Forte. Two loudmouth guys: one young, one old, one west coast, one east coast. It was perfect. Steve Mason and John Ireland took on the morning show and later saw their careers take them to new places. Scott Kaplan and Billy Ray Smith joined the station creating a strong show and a loyal listening audience of Great Friends. The Coach John Kentera joins the station sharing his wealth of knowledge of local high school sports, plus offering his commentary on the San Diego pro and collegiate sports teams. San Diego Chargers: I root for Herbert to Win, but Spanos to Lose As a long time voice of the San Diego Chargers play-by-play, and as an NFL junkie, Hacksaw was right at home broadcasting the Chargers every Sunday. We retrace some of the magical moments of the Chargers Super Bowl season including stories about Bobby Ross, Stan Humphries, Stan Brock, Tony Martin, Dennis Gibson, and the playoff run against the Dolphins in Steelers. We reminisce about the good vibes as both the team and the community both came together in a very special way. After the 1997 season The Mighty 690 lost its broadcast rights to the team, breaking promises made to the station and to Lee personally to stay on as the play-by-play guy. Hacksaw was very disappointed with the decision, but he bounced back and was the play-by-play guy for the Seattle Seahawks for 3 seasons. So, how does Hacksaw feel about the Chargers now? He says he wants the kid quarterback Justin Herbert to go 17-0 and the owner Dean Spanos to go 0-17. San Diego State Aztecs and the PAC-12 In the podcast episode we get into the new Snapdragon Stadium, Lee's disappointment that the Soccer City proposal did not win thus guaranteeing an NFL stadium option, and the possibilities of the Aztecs joining the PAC-12.
