You all know us too well to know that we couldn't not track down a Saint Peter's alumni after the recent magical run. What better guest to have than the school's all-time leader in points per game average?! Rich Rinaldi is in the house and it is an HONOR! We of course love the recognition the current Saint Peter's team is getting recently, but we wanted to show some love to one of the staples of the school's history and program.Rich Rinaldi was a gifted scorer averaging 28.6 points per game by the time he was a senior at Saint Peter's. He went on to become the 43rd overall pick in the 1971 NBA Draft by the Baltimore Bullets where he played three years in the NBA & ABA and many more overseas. After his playing days he worked for the National Basketball Players Association, counseling players on the transition to post-basketball careers. Rinaldi shares great stories about the High School and blacktop scene in New York, his time at Saint Peter's, Elnardo Webster, Jo Jo White, Pete Maravich, Phil Chenier, Walt Frazier, Jerry West, Walt Bellamy, Stan Love, giving fouls, wild experiences overseas, Saint Peter's magical run to the Elite Eight and MUCH more!We can't thank Rinaldi enough for his time and all of the amazing stories he shared. His era was special and the young listeners will learn A LOT about the game in this one. He was extremely generous with his time, detailed with his answers, and truly one of our favorite guests we've had. We know you will all feel the same. It's great to appreciate what those Saint Peter's boys just did… but make sure you appreciate the greats that came before them as well.

The 1976 NBA Finals featured a mediocre team in the Phoenix Suns and the historic Boston Celtics. Boston, including the previous season and the first two games of these NBA Finals had won 8-straight against Phoenix. The Suns, who had gone 42-40 during the 1975-76 regular season, got on a roll. First, they downed the Seattle Supersonics 4 games to 2 and then they took out the defending NBA Champion Golden State Warriors in seven games to advance to their first Finals. Boston, meanwhile, had gone 54-28 during the regular season, defeated the Buffalo Braves in six games and the Cleveland Cavaliers in six games in the Eastern Conference Finals to setup this unlikely Finals showdown. Boston, coached by Tom Heinsohn and led by greats John Havlicek and Don Nelson, also had a terrific bench and budding star in Jojo White. The Suns were led by Paul Westphal (who was a part-time player for the Celtics the previous season), rookie Alvan Adams and the little-known Ricky Sobers. On this episode of Sports’ Forgotten Heroes, author Roger Gordon returns to the podcast. Gordon, who recently released a book about Game 5 of the 1976 Finals titled, “6.4.76 Phoenix Suns vs. Boston Celtics,” a game widely regarded as the greatest game of all-time, discusses the game and the unique controversies ( and they were unique, questionable, and looking back on it, crazy to think they could happen today) that helped make the game as legendary as it is. Additionally, we talk about six stars - and their careers - who played such pivotal roles in the game: Westphal, Adams, Sobers, White, Paul Silas and Dave Cowens.

I've always been fascinated with comedians. I used to come home from junior high school and watch ComicView on BET or even many years later, memorizing Robin Williams' comedy special, Live on Broadway. It's always seemed like comics had a special eye for society and human behavior. I mean how else do they come up with their jokes, mostly geared towards many of the societal norms we take for granted? There have been studies trying to quantify the psychology of comics and better understand what both motivates them to do what they do and also what gives them their special talents. Famous comics such as Robin Williams, Richard Pryor, and Ellen Degeneres are often referred to when talking about this special kind of intelligence. They are also often put in the Mental Health/Illness category as well; to which correlations have also been explored. Though most studies find that they are not necessarily more "sick" than non-comedians, most often their personalities come with a high drive for acceptance. To better understand if anything of this has merit, or to at least attempt to hear it from the horse's mouth; I sat down with my friend, Jojo White to talk about his passion for sharing the connection between Comedy and Depression in what might be the show's most heartfelt episode yet. Buckle in, this one is going to take you for a ride. I hope you enjoy - Steven. For show notes, visit: https://stevenfage.com/podcast/episode/the-dark-side-of-comedy/
