Hour 1 The Knicks' coaching search is narrowing, with Rick Pitino emphasizing the immense pressure facing the new hire. Jeff Van Gundy is a strong candidate, while Mike Malone is reportedly out. In other sports news, Pete Alonso homered twice in the Mets' win, the Yankees were shut out, and there's drama with Gilbert Arenas criticizing Karl-Anthony Towns, and a public spat between Sal Licata and Dan Dakich over the Thibs firing. Michelle Beadle was replaced by Stephen A. Smith with little notice, and the Oilers took Game 1 against the Panthers in overtime. Hour 2 The Knicks' coaching situation continues to dominate discussion, with Rick Pitino advising Karl-Anthony Towns to reduce his body fat. Callers drew parallels to the Yankees' successful transition from Buck Showalter to Joe Torre, hoping for a similar outcome for the Knicks. In other sports, the Mets defeated the Dodgers with Pete Alonso hitting two home runs, while the Yankees were shut out by the Guardians. Rick Pitino also weighed in on Aaron Judge, calling him a "Babe Ruth type player," and expressed shock at the Thibs firing, a sentiment echoed by Adam Schein and Chris Russo—the latter misnaming Leon Rose as "Leon Hess." The Oilers won Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. Off the field, comedian Jeff Garlin reportedly refused to perform at an event due to an $800 cash dispute. Finally, a caller suggested Juan Soto's improved performance is simply due to him enjoying the game, rather than a Mets/Yankees rivalry. Hour 3 Michael Rubin, CEO of Fanatics, joined the show to discuss Fanatics Fest happening later this month at the Javits Center. In sports updates, the Mets beat the Dodgers with Juan Soto walking three times and Pete Alonso hitting two homers, while Griffin Canning had another strong start. The Yankees were shut out by Cleveland. We heard an uncomfortable clip of Dave Portnoy yelling at Kirk Minihane, and Michelle Beadle reacted to being replaced by Stephen A. Smith on their SiriusXM show. The Oilers won Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals in overtime. Off the field, Wayne Gretzky was trying to understand Chappell Roan's "Pink Pony Club." Finally, the discussion turned to MLB's new rule allowing two ball/strike challenges per team starting next season, with concern that it might slow down games after successful efforts to speed them up. Hour 4 The show discussed the Fanatics Fest event, where everyday individuals can compete against professional athletes, detailing the various challenges. Saquon Barkley made headlines with a surprising comment about a potential sudden retirement. Jerry's final update covered the Mets beating the Dodgers behind two Pete Alonso home runs, and the Yankees being shut out by Cleveland. Rick Carlisle thought the Knicks' Thibs firing as a "fake A-I story," leading to a humorous debate about whether Stephen A. Smith or Chris Russo would prefer to be President or Head Coach of the Knicks. The Oilers defeated the Panthers in overtime to win Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals. The "Moment of The Day" involved Gio mispronouncing "unkillable" as "unlikeable" when referring to BT's podcast. The show concluded with a discussion of the NBA's reaction to the Thibs firing.

¡Hola! Soy Miriam Prada, y en este nuevo episodio del podcast te llevo de la mano por las ferias de diseño y arquitectura más inspiradoras de mayo 2025. Desde Clerkenwell Design Week en Londres hasta Casa Decor en Madrid, pasando por Nueva York, Melbourne y mi querida Galicia, exploramos lo último en tendencias del interiorismo, nuevos materiales sostenibles, tecnología aplicada al hogar e incluso las propiedades más espectaculares en el mercado internacional. Este episodio es un repaso muy especial que conecta el diseño, la innovación y el arte de vivir bien, tanto si estás dentro del sector como si simplemente eres un apasionado del diseño de interiores. Hablamos del micelio, de la madera transparente, de herramientas de IA como Dream Room Inspirations y del papel transformador que juegan plataformas como Google y Mitra. Y para cerrar, analizamos en detalle dos casas impresionantes: la de Chris Evans en Los Ángeles y una joya histórica en la 5ª Avenida de Nueva York, vendida por casi 50 millones de dólares.   Detalles de las Ferias Clerkenwell Design Week  Londres volvió a brillar con luz propia durante la edición 2025 de la Clerkenwell Design Week, uno de los eventos más emblemáticos del calendario británico de diseño. Más de 600 actividades —entre exposiciones comisariadas, instalaciones inmersivas y eventos en showroom— se desplegaron por el dinámico barrio de Clerkenwell, que presume de tener la mayor concentración de empresas creativas del Reino Unido. https://www.clerkenwelldesignweek.com/programme NYCxDesign & ICFF  La ciudad de Nueva York se transformó en un epicentro efervescente de creatividad durante la celebración de NYCxDesign, con cientos de eventos repartidos por los cinco distritos, desde estudios abiertos hasta charlas y exposiciones. En paralelo, la International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) tomó el Javits Center del 18 al 20 de mayo con más de 450 marcas de 35 países, subrayando la innovación y la sostenibilidad como ejes centrales. https://nycxdesign.org  https://icff.com  Melbourne Design Week  Bajo el inspirador lema “Diseña el mundo que deseas”, la Melbourne Design Week ofreció más de 400 actividades que cruzaron disciplinas como arquitectura, moda y planificación urbana, poniendo el foco en propuestas sostenibles e inclusivas. https://designweek.melbourne  Bienal de Arquitectura de Venecia (Inaugurada el 10 de mayo) La 19ª edición de la Bienal de Arquitectura de Venecia, comisariada por Carlo Ratti, abrió sus puertas con el provocador título "Intelligens. Natural. Artificial. Colectivo." Una reflexión profunda sobre cómo la inteligencia —en todas sus formas— puede ser aprovechada por la arquitectura para afrontar desafíos globales como el cambio climático. https://www.labiennale.org/en/architecture/2025  Casa Decor Madrid  La capital española fue durante mes y medio el epicentro del interiorismo con Casa Decor 2025, que este año celebró su 59ª edición en un señorial edificio del barrio de Salamanca. Más de 50 espacios intervenidos por interioristas, arquitectos, paisajistas y marcas de alto nivel ofrecieron una muestra vibrante del diseño residencial contemporáneo en España. Sostenibilidad, bienestar, innovación tecnológica y lujo sensorial marcaron la narrativa de una edición que confirmó la consolidación de Casa Decor como referencia indiscutible en el circuito europeo de diseño. https://casadecor.es  Galicia Design Week  A Coruña se consolidó como epicentro creativo con la sexta edición de la Galicia Design Week. Este festival multidisciplinar reunió a diseñadores emergentes y consolidados en una programación que abarcó desde exposiciones y showrooms hasta encuentros gastronómicos y sesiones musicales. Bajo el lema #NovoDeseñoGalego, se destacaron las propuestas más innovadoras del diseño gallego contemporáneo, con actividades que incluyeron charlas, talleres y eventos en espacios emblemáticos de la ciudad.  https://www.gdw.gal  Gracias por darle al play. Miriam Prada Un poco sobre mí... Soy Ingeniera de la Edificación y diseñadora de interiores, me he especializado en proyectos de alta gama. Con 15 años de experiencia en la industria del diseño, he tenido el privilegio de colaborar con una amplia gama de clientes, incluyendo promotores, constructores, agentes de la propiedad inmobiliaria, empresarios y clientes privados. He completado con éxito más de 25 proyectos en siete países diferentes (España, Reino Unido, Bahréin, India, Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, y Suiza) y he tenido el placer de trabajar con clientes de 11 nacionalidades. Mi proyecto de más valía hasta la fecha supera los 50 millones de libras, y uno de mis logros más destacados fue el diseño de una promoción de 16 apartamentos, donde el ático se posicionó con un récord histórico como el piso de un dormitorio mejor pagado por metro cuadrado en la historia de Westminster, Londres. Actualmente vivo en Londres y continúo trabajando en múltiples proyectos locales e internacionales. Aprovechando las capacidades del mundo digital, he producido y lanzado este podcast, "Atelier Prada", donde, de manera distendida y coloquial, abordo diferentes temas del mundo del interior con el objetivo de compartir parte del conocimiento que he adquirido durante estos años cada semana.  Para obtener más inspiración en diseño de interiores   www.miriamprada.com https://miriamprada.com/podcasts/ https://www.youtube.com/@miriamprada https://www.instagram.com/miriamprada_interior https://www.tiktok.com/@miriamprada_interior    #DiseñoDeInteriores #Arquitectura2025 #MaterialesSostenibles #CasaDecor

Luckily, like SBF, Emily did not succeed and Jessica escaped unscathed reputation intact and found salvation in being a hot Degen girl in crypto alongside the wisdom to know that the truth, like code, and like Trust Fund always prevail. Jessica now serves as the Business Development Lead at Kadena, a Proof of Work Token that horizontally scales. Jessica is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to conference survival tips, Degen trading, Panel outfits, telegram organization, not letting Federal lawsuits get you down, and most importantly that routine is the death of any existence.

With Climate Week NYC just around the corner, this episode of the ESG Insider podcast explores what to expect from a week that will convene thousands of stakeholders for hundreds of events across New York City Sept. 22-29.    The ESG Insider podcast will be on the ground covering many of these events, starting with the Opening Ceremony hosted by Climate Group. This is the nonprofit that organizes Climate Week in partnership with the UN General Assembly and the City of New York. The theme of Climate Week this year is “It's Time,” which speaks to the sense of urgency to address climate change as more people globally feel the effects of a warming world.   During Climate Week, ESG Insider will be an official podcast partner of The Nest Climate Campus, a three-day event taking place Sept. 24-26 at New York City's Javits Center. The campus brings together companies, nonprofits, government, academia and the community at large.   In today's episode, we talk with Britton Jones, the Founder and CEO of Next Events Media Group, a purpose-driven events organization that produces the Nest Climate Campus. Britton discusses what to expect from Climate Week, what the topics of focus will be and what it will take to make the week a success. He also talks about how to prevent Climate Week conversations from becoming an echo chamber where sustainability professionals are preaching to the choir.  “We want to make sure that we can meet people no matter where they are in their climate journey,” Britton says. “This is most definitely an all-hands-on-deck type of situation."  S&P Global Sustainable1 is hosting a co-located event at The Nest Climate Campus on Sept. 25.

Amon-Ra St. Brown: Lion's Wide Receiver on big off-season, new contract & star of NFL's Netflix series, strict upbringing, family influence, 3-13 as rookie to NFC championship, Dan Campbell's leadership & 2024 goal: Detroit Super Bowl

Detroit's star Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown continues to make headlines with major off season moves, first re-signing with the Lions for a 4 year $120M extension and now starring in the NFL's new Netflix series "Receiver", following the highly popular Quarterback series last year, the show is expected to be a summer hit. Ryan, Channing and Fred sat down with 2x Pro Bowler Amon-Ra St. Brown to talk about his upbringing in a strict but motivating household, the recent surge from the Detroit Lions and how he's utilized the chip on his shoulder from falling in the 2021 draft to becoming one of the highest paid wide receivers in the league. Amon-Ra shares his family history and mindset developed from a young age, always working harder and playing with a chip on his shoulder after dropping to late rounds in the NFL Draft to naming all 16 wide outs who's name was called before his using it as motivation to not allow someone's name to be called before his when it counted. Ryan talks about watching him during 7 on 7 as a high schooler and was blown away not just with his talent but his grit. Amon prides himself in being more of a "I can show you better than I can tell you" player as he's had a pivotal role on transforming the Lions from a 3-13 team his rookie year to playing in the NFC Championship this past season and credits the leadership of head coach Dan Campbell and tight knit locker room for Detroit's fast turn around. Falling one game short of the Super Bowl left a sting in the team's core and this offseason has been focused on starting with that same momentum heading into training camp with a roster full of talent, St. Brown knows they are a serious contender, now taken seriously in the league and have a target on their back heading into 2024 season despite still being considered the NFL's underdogs. St. Brown reflects on the foundations that shaped him from his unique family dynamic having a bodybuilder father, the former Mr. World, who trained him and his two brothers (one of whom also plays in the NFL), and a multilingual mother who exposed the family to diverse cultures around the globe with emphasizing education and experience. Developing a 1% mentality of always being better and outworking the next, whether it was catching 202 passes off the jugs machine daily or lifting weights with his siblings, Amon-Ra spent his life crafting his passion for football and credits his close-knit family for instilling that work ethic and determination that has now defined his NFL rise as a talented, gritty wide receiver, vying for that top spot. And with the release of NFL's Netflix Series "Receiver", St. Brown's stardom will continue to grow far beyond the gridiron into a household name as his story on and off the field unfolds from a young boy from Compton to now one of the highest paid Wide Receivers in the league. "Receiver" premieres on Netflix July 10th showcasing an unprecedented window into the toughest job in sports featuring St. Brown alongside NFL stars Devante Adams, Justin Jefferson, George Kittle and Deebo Samuel.

"They have to connect with you, otherwise they're watching fireworks, and we really only watch fireworks once a year." Cody Rhodes WWE Champion The WWE is reaching milestones and peaking at levels that haven't been reached since the old days of icons and legends in the ring due to the intriguing storylines, big names and fan loyalty that's second to none. Attending their first live WWE event, Ryan talks about the electricity in the arena and how the entire night kept you on the edge of your seat. Ryan, Channing and Fred invite the current WWE Champion Cody Rhodes to Fanatics Headquarters in NYC to talk about his rise to stardom, the state of the WWE, honoring his father Dusty Rhodes' legacy, how he secured a victory at WrestleMania LX, revealing the secret to success in Pro Wrestling. The most recent WrestleMania showcased WWE phenoms alongside current stars, and Cody Rhodes shocked the world when he defeated Roman Reigns for the Universal Championship belt. With the return of The Rock to that massive event, Cody goes in-depth on how at one moment he thought the odds were against him to win the belt as he describes what it was like to have the biggest movie star on the planet and man who broke barriers in pro wrestling come back to challenge the throne. Riding the highs and lows of his career, getting to the top was a tough journey but staying there is even harder. Cody talks about his connection to the fans keeps him going, and shares a never-told-before story that provides insight into who Cody is not just as the people's champion but as a man too. Being the son of a former superstar is no easy feat, and Rhodes talks about honoring his father's legacy at Madison Square Garden and continues into a conversation about nepotism in sports with the recent news of Bronny James' being drafted to the Lakers alongside his father Lebron James, Cody describes the effects of being a Nepo child but is clear that your last name may get you recognized and open doors, but hard work and respect are what earn your spot to stay there.

Rhodes talks about being the face and heel in sports, and how the good ones can be both as he is capitalizing on his beloved stardom status with a looming question, not if but when will he step in the ring with The Rock to settle the score once and for all.

One of the biggest NFL off-season storylines is the contract negotiations coming from the reigning NFC Champions in San Francisco and if their star WR Brandon Aiyuk, former first round pick, will still be a 49er heading into 2024 season. Since the week after the Super Bowl, his contract has been a hot topic with constant media coverage, rumors, and social media buzz. Adding fuel to the fire, there are speculations that Aiyuk might reunite with his former ASU teammate and close friend Quarterback Jayden Daniels at the Washington Commanders… And the Pivot in partnership with Fanatics uncovers the truth and cuts through the noise.  In today's episode, sitting with the source himself, Ryan, Channing and Fred have a conversation with Brandon Aiyuk around what's true, what's not and ask the looming question- will a new deal be done before training camp ? Or does Aiyuk have his sights set on a short list of NFL teams he feels he can be the X factor on. Brandon explains the why behind the viral face time post of him and his long-time friend Jayden Daniels and why he's taking these contract negotiations personal while sharing his true priorities and mindset as he discusses what he believes he's worth, the significance of the big dollar-signs and how he handles the pressures of these high-stakes discussions under the public eye. With an unsettling sentiment and signs of discourse between the San Francisco organization and Aiyuk since the Super Bowl loss in Feb, Brandon is setting the record straight about his emotions around the loss against the Chiefs and sharing his true thoughts in his voice without any misconstrues.  Aiyuk gives us his perspective on the state of the league, being the next domino to fall in the contract pool of wide receivers and sharing insights on quarterback Brock Purdy, his teammates and how much talent is on this 49er roster, full understanding the grass may not be greener elsewhere but he's not closing the door on reuniting with his friend and former teammate Daniels in Washington or dabbling with other teams, ofcourse with the Steelers being one Ryan hopes is on the list.   Growing up in a 49ers fan home, Aiyuk has deep love for the team but also has openness to new opportunities. Tune in for an unfiltered conversation that delves into the heart of Brandon Aiyuk's current journey, his aspirations, and the roller coaster side of professional football negotiations.

"So many people want to be a part of the announcement and not a part of the investment."- Rich Paul, Founder of Klutch Sports Less than 24 hours away from the 2024 NBA Draft and all the talk is around a potential late round draft prospect, And why? Well because of the name on the back of his jersey.  The sports world is currently divided over discussions about nepotism in basketball, sparked by Bronny James' announcement that he will enter the NBA draft after just one year at USC. In the latest episode of The Pivot, Ryan, Channing, and Fred sit down with Rich Paul, founder of Klutch Sports Group and super agent not just for big NBA stars and Lebron but Bronny too, as the guys go in depth for a very telling conversation from the source himself. They dive into Rich's long-standing relationship with LeBron James, yet their separate approaches to navigating Bronny's entry into the NBA draft and his future career. Rich is very clear, although Bronny is considered his nephew, he is treating him as he would any of the other athletes he represents, sharing the best case scenario, discussing various approaches and details what he actually means by declining two-way contracts. Rich has made a name for himself as a leader in sports business and transcending athlete representation by doing it his own way, which has raised the bar in the industry.  Way before Rich Paul and Lebron met, Rich was hustling and grinding his way through life, from selling jerseys out of his car to becoming a prominent CEO in sports representation. He provides insights into his journey to become one of the most influential businessmen in sports, outgrowing his title of agent through his contributions in sports and entertainment growth over the years. Rich gives perspective into his philosophy as a man, agent and friend, emphasizing his consistent yet authentic approach in managing high-profile clients like LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Draymond Green as well as his female clients in WNBA led by the league's MVP A'ja Wilson. Rich prides himself in building strong personal connections both within and outside the sports industry and talks about how he will not only stick by his athletes through their successes, but will also stand in the rain with them when things get tough as he demonstrated with Draymond Green recently. This mentality isn't a front, it's just who Rich Paul is, and is best described in his book, "Lucky Me" about changing the odds and going against the grain to reach success: "You don't have to finish where you start," which is why he has earned the trust of the best of the best in basketball and paved the way for it to be a business built on people skills and relationships and not by mandated college degrees.   For continued viewing and listening of more Pivot content and unique conversations in sports and entertainment with A-list celebs, top athletes and leaders in business, Subscribe to catch new episodes of The Pivot released on YouTube every Tuesday at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m. ET, with early release of audio available on major streaming platforms such as Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music.

No greater event than one of sport and today we are talking a real live David vs Goliath title bout as we chat with the man who knows he's the underdog but believes he's built for this moment. Undefeated Boxer Frank Martin looks to become the new WBA Lightweight World Champion pulling off the upset win over Boxing's best and biggest star, Gervonta "Tank" Davis on June 15th at the MGM Grand Las Vegas. In partnership with Fanatics, The Pivot Podcast shares an exclusive conversation as Ryan, Channing, and Fred sit down with Frank "The Ghost" Martin as he prepares to step in the ring with Tank Davis, 29-0 and 27 KOs. Both undefeated talents in their own right, Martin opens up about being an underdog, his anticipations for the showdown, and the pivotal moments that shaped his journey to the ring. Despite boasting a perfect record of 18-0, Martin remains criminally underrated within his division, a fact he confronts head-on as he discusses his mindset approaching what is undeniably the pinnacle of his career. Delving into the origins of his nickname "The Ghost," Martin dissects the nuances of his fighting style and its potential and favorable impact when he faces Davis, Alluding to the last time the two fighters met in Vegas, a few years ago in a sparring match at The Mayweather Boxing Gym, Martin reveals what really transpired that day and how the man himself, Floyd Mayweather, pulled the two fighters apart after several grueling rounds.  Martin shares with Ryan, Channing and Fred the advice Mayweather has given him over the years and the one key piece he has kept at the forefront of his training, work when your opponent is resting and become mentally strong not just physically. Addressing the false narratives from the press conference and the trash talk spewed from his opponent, Martin turns the words into motivation and confidently tells the guys, "people think they know who I am and what I'm capable of, but have no idea, but soon they will see who Frank Martin really is." Calling the city of Detroit home, Martin's upbringing created his resilient mindset and unique athleticism, qualities that have raised his current status to become one of the sport's top talents and he explains how working with renowned boxing trainer, Derrick James, has edged even more, increasing his speed and athleticism to a level unlike anything Tank has experienced before. Martin says this moment is more than just a fight, it's for all the people who felt lost, misguided and not good enough, to know the good guy does win sometimes and this night is about the underdog.  Stay tuned for new episodes of The Pivot, premiering Tuesdays at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m. ET on YouTube, with audio available on all major streaming platforms including Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music.

As an athlete, part of the climb is reaching the top and often, fame and wealth steal the spotlight, but what's not really discussed, is how a simple game can shape one's identity and provide purpose. In a recent conversation on The Pivot, former MLB All-Star Matt Kemp joins Ryan, Channing, and Fred to unravel the multifaceted journey of life as a professional baseball player. Kemp shares a blend of funny anecdotes and honest reflections, providing a glimpse into the complexities of his career from a small town guy to the big lights of Los Angeles, and the extra pressures that came with playing in the limelight of a big city. From the challenges of adapting to life in various cities to the weight of fame under the spotlight of Los Angeles, Kemp's experiences paint a picture of the highs and lows that come with being a professional athlete. As Matt navigated the transition into retirement, He compares that time in his life to mourning a family death, juggling all the emotions of losing something you love while facing the uncertainties that lie ahead. In 2011 Matt Kemp finished second in National League MVP voting to Ryan Braun, and he talks about his reaction to later finding out Braun tested positive for PEDs that season. He won the Hank Aaron Award that year, though, and Kemp reflects on being biracial in baseball as well as the African-American mentors he had in the sport. Still tough to rationalize missing out on that feat, Matt talks about life now, and leaving the baseball to pursue mentorships and other business endeavors. Throughout the episode, Kemp provides valuable insights into broader themes such as race, identity, and the ever-evolving landscape of rookie vs veterans in the locker room. Playing for the LA Dodgers came with high expectations between living in Hollywood, access to celebrities combined with a fast pace lifestyle while putting up a league high MLB numbers, Matt shares how the pressures sometime were too much to handle and only increased as his personal life took center stage to media outlets and blogs. The guys chat about Matt's adjustment to fame- from the media's accountability to the dating scene, which Channing can't help but ask about his relationship with superstar Rihanna. From his mom and dad helping him choose baseball in Oklahoma to Torii Hunter and Don Newcombe guiding him once he reached the majors, Kemp gives praise to the many people who helped him reach the success he had. Yet today he is no longer an active baseball player, and he talks about the unknown struggles of retirement and entering a new chapter as a dad.

The guys may not agree with Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker's recent comments during a graduation speech, but they discuss the football world's responses to a fellow NFL player speaking their mind. Ryan talks about why he disagrees with the speech itself and they each give thier takes on what it is like being a teammate to players whose beliefs don't align with their own, as Ryan talks specifically to Jason Kelce being a good teammate, fresh out of the locker room, trying to make light of the situation and the media world reacting to it in an unnecessary way. With all of the talk surrounding Bronny James as a prospect in the NBA Draft, Channing defends the use of nepotism for Bronny to get opportunities, but he and Ryan both touch on how he has to earn his spot in the league. This is similar to Caitlin Clark and the WNBA rookies proving their stardom, and the guys discuss the WNBA's spotlight with the league's heated competition so far this season. The NCAA's new regulations allowing schools to put money directly into NIL for their athletes is a boost for Power-5 student athletes, but Ryan talks about why he thinks this should have already happened. Channing and Fred also touch on the importance of financial literacy for these athletes to succeed in the long run. Just like in the NFL, NBA or any professional league, The Pivot and their team is a family, and the guys finish the show talking about the importance of checking in on one another given the recent news about PGA golfer Grayson Murray's death.  New episodes drop on Tuesdays at 12 p.m. ET and Fridays at 3:30 p.m ET on YouTube, with audio available on all streaming platforms New York City, come meet us at Fanatics Fest NYC!

Ryan, Fred, and Channing sit down for an exclusive interview with Knicks star Josh Hart as he recounts the highs and lows of his journey to New York following a season that had the Big Apple, and the entire basketball world buzzing. New York's playoff run was fueled by a trio of Villanova graduates with Hart, Jalen Brunson and Donte Divincenzo leading way, bringing a veteran mindset and a new sense of toughness to the franchise. With the electrifying atmosphere of Madison Square Garden, Hart sheds light on the inner workings of the team's success as well as the domino effect that led to their downfall, providing untold stories behind the team's undeniable grit and the misconceptions of playing for Coach Tom Thibodeau.  Hart knows as well as anybody, that the NBA is a business first, and he opens up about the emotions that come with being traded three separate times. From his wife and kids to finding joy on the court, Hart goes in-depth on the importance of him finding a true home in New York. Identifying key life moments, Hart shares how his high school years at Sidwell and being away from his parents shaped him into the man he is today and reveals the unlikely lessons (and laughs) learned from becoming an Eagle Scout. With the NBA Conference Finals looming, Hart hints at who he believes are the best players left in the playoffs, and who he thinks will take home the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy.

In partnership with Fanatics, we bring you an episode today that is important for us all to takee a listen...Continuing the important conversation around Mental Health, Ryan, Fred, and Channing sit down with Robbie Chosen, previously known as Robbie Anderson, on his 31st birthday, the moment he marks as a new start for the NFL Free Agent. Robbie's career statistics speak volumes about his journey—having started as an undrafted free agent in 2016 to acquiring 4,000 receiving yards and 26 touchdowns, Robbie's impact on the field is undeniable. In an unguarded and honest conversation, the guys delve deep into Robbie's rollercoaster career path and reflect on his tough upbringing and early years from hard family circumstances to personal decisions to his growth. Robbie describes what it was like growing up without a father in a place full of negative temptations, and the guys ask about how he made it to the league despite the hardships around him. He talks about the moments where his path became cloudy, like being kicked out of college or having harsh sideline interactions, but puts a pinpoint on the ways in which he developed out of the labels people had for him. The former 1,000-yard receiver still says he has years on the field left in him, and Ryan touches on his admiration for how Robbie is changing his generational curses into blessings. Even with his name changes, Robbie has solidified his identity as a person and a player, but by leaning on his values and faith, he also describes his true definition of success. On a day that's all about personal introspection, Robbie takes a moment to reflect not only on his past but also on his aspirations for the future and legacy as a father, husband and teammate.

Earlier today, the man accused of fatally shooting an NYPD officer in Queens on Monday was charged with first-degree murder. Officer Jonathan Diller was shot by Guy Rivera, from Queens, when the policeman approached his illegally-parked car. This is not Rivera's first interaction with the justice system. His record includes 21 prior arrests for charges including assault, robbery, and possession of a controlled substance. To commemorate officer Diller, Governor Hochul has directed flags on all state buildings to be flown at half-staff. Diller's wake took place this afternoon on Long Island, and hundreds attended including Donald Trump Three presidents will be in town this evening when the Democratic party holds a fundraiser at Radio City Music Hall for President Biden. The NYPD says to expect street closures, with 49th, 50th and 51st streets shut down to traffic. Pedestrian traffic is also limited as of 3 p.m …in the same places. We'll have more on the President's fundraising later on today's show. Right before the kickoff of the 2024 Auto Show at the Javits Center tomorrow, Governor Hochol has announced over 100 new chargers for electric vehicles will be built in New York City. This is part of the city's 1-billion-dollar investment aimed at making transportation electric and reducing emissions. The initiative is born from a partnership between the New York City Department of Transportation and the New York Power Authority. The great majority of charging stations will be located at 13 new E-Volve New York hubs. Others will be at LaGuardia Airport. They are scheduled to be completed and ready to use between 2025 and 2026. Baseball fans, time to step up to the plate… Today is opening day for Major League Baseball. First pitch for the Yankees is scheduled for just a few minutes from now in Houston. The Mets will host the Brewers tomorrow afternoon in Queens.
