Newcomer Colin Ireland joined the Bench to team up with Benchwarmer Emeritus Dan, reuniting half of an old trivia team (The Four Horsemen), in this #toomuchminnesota Josh-hosted game. Early on, Dan inquired if a stanza from a Sporting Haiku question was a Meatloaf reference, which triggered Scott to say, "Oh, hi mom!" Mason informed the crew that he had a dream recently that was similar to a Halftime Show movie plot. Mason also thought that a movie titled "Celtic Pride, Cowboy Ride" could be a hit (stay tuned, you may hear the trailer for it if we ever have a second Benchies episode). And last, but not least, Mason and Scott introduced us to the infamous German-Finnish NHL enforcer Nöpe Same (pronounced Noo-pay Sah-may). #karlanthonytowns #fourhorsemen #meatloaf #himom #celticpride #cowboyride #nhl #nopesame https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast

Karl-Anthony Towns (KAT) was roasted at the ESPYs, an event where Boomer was referenced in Norm Macdonald's 1998 monologue, a moment Shane Gillis paid tribute to. Boomer and Gio question KAT's drive. Jerry's update features Gillis's jokes, a leaked video hinting at Lindor becoming Mets captain, a break-in at Ketel Marte's home, and free-agency news (Von Miller to Commanders, Bradley Beal to Clippers). The hour ends with golf talk, including Gio's non-football chat with Adam Schefter.

On how one writes a biography on a young superstar entering his prime. On the wild boredom of Las Vegas summer league. On Jimmy Butler and Karl-Anthony Towns. On working as an openly gay journalist in 2025 professional sports.

During Mike Brown's press conference as new head coach of the Knicks, he spoke about a number of different topics. One of them was Mitchell Robinson, Karl-Anthony Towns, the double big lineup and how Robinson & KAT are effective in their roles. We also take a look at what free agents NY should target and why the debate of LeBron V Michael Jordan really is not close... Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

BT and Sal engage in a heated debate regarding the New York Knicks' hiring of Mike Brown as head coach. BT champions Brown's resume, highlighting his past success with winning teams and his potential to elevate the Knicks' offense and utilize their star players, particularly Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns, more effectively than his predecessor, Tom Thibodeau. Conversely, Sal expresses strong skepticism, viewing Brown as a "retread" whose previous successes were overly reliant on generational talents like LeBron James, questioning his ability to lead the Knicks to a championship given his past postseason shortcomings and perceived lack of sustained success outside of those situations. The conversation delves into contrasting coaching philosophies, player utilization, and the realistic championship aspirations for the Knicks under Brown's leadership.

In a candid interview, Ian Begley of SNY provides a no-nonsense look at the New York Knicks' ongoing coaching search and roster moves. Discussing the abrupt firing of Tom Thibodeau, Begley offers insights into whether there was a pre-existing plan, the involvement of players like Karl-Anthony Towns in exit meetings, and the current status of potential candidates like Mike Brown and the fading chances of Jason Kidd. He also delves into the unusual process of making roster changes without a head coach, the impact of James Dolan's involvement, and the long-shot possibilities of acquiring stars like Giannis Antetokounmpo or LeBron James, all while providing his signature unfiltered analysis.

BT and Sal are intensely debating the Knicks' coaching situation, specifically concerning Jason Kidd. A caller emphasizes that the Knicks don't need Kidd's "baggage," questioning his in-game coaching abilities despite the Mavericks' past playoff run. The conversation extends to Karl-Anthony Towns's defensive deficiencies and the Knicks' overall roster imbalances, including Jalen Brunson's defensive limitations and the team's lack of consistent shooting. They critically analyze the prospect of re-signing Mikal Bridges for a large sum, weighing the sunk cost of draft picks against his actual value, and discuss the need for a new head coach who can maximize the team's offensive potential and for additional well-rounded players to better fit the puzzle pieces of the Knicks' roster.

Both the Yankees and Mets are hot, building excitement for potential September playoff pushes; the Yankees' post-Juan Soto additions are thriving, while Mets pitching is so strong a caller doesn't want Sean Manaea back from injury. Boomer expects the Braves to heat up but notes Phillies' injuries. In other news, Kyrie Irving defended Karl-Anthony Towns on Twitch, leading to a discussion about "code switching" and whether New Jersey is a "tiny" state. The Yankees beat the Royals with an Aaron Judge homer, and the Mets shut out the Nationals thanks to a David Peterson complete game and two Brandon Nimmo home runs, though Pete Alonso getting hit again angered Ron Darling.

Howard Stern believes sportscasters should normalize saying "penis" on air. In basketball, Kyrie Irving defended Karl-Anthony Towns from criticism as the Pacers surprisingly took a 2-1 lead in the NBA Finals.

Finally, Mike Tannenbaum predicted Aaron Rodgers would be irrelevant by Thanksgiving, and Rodgers recently got married privately.

Hour 1 The Mets and Yankees are on a roll, with David Peterson throwing a complete game for the Mets. Meanwhile, the Knicks' coaching search continues to flounder, with rejections from candidates like Jason Kidd and public criticism from Charles Barkley. Elsewhere, the U.S. Open starts today, the Pacers took a 2-1 series lead over the Thunder, and an anonymous player poll named Juan Soto the hitter pitchers least want to face in a World Series Game 7. Hour 2 Howard Stern believes sportscasters should normalize saying "penis" on air.

Hour 4 The Knicks are still searching for a new head coach, with speculation about player input during exit interviews. A new "Roommates" podcast is due today. Jerry's final update included the Pacers' 2-1 lead over the Thunder, the Yankees' victory over the Royals (5 runs in the second), and the Mets' shutout of the Nationals, featuring a David Peterson complete game and homers from Juan Soto and Brandon Nimmo. Joe Flacco found it hard to believe adults use TikTok. The "Moment of The Day" was a funny caller interaction with Jerry, and Boomer is out tomorrow for a Maryland quarterback event.

Kyrie Irving was on a Twitch stream and he wants everyone to stop making fun of Karl-Anthony Towns. We wondered if NJ is considered a ‘tiny' state. A caller wonders if Jerry still thinks Kyrie Irving is ‘brilliant'.

Howard Stern wants sportscasters to normalize the penis. He said announcers will never say they got hit in the nuts or the penis. Kyrie Irving has had it with people criticizing Karl-Anthony Towns.

On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones discusses the New York Knicks offseason and Inside The NBA moving to ESPN. Bo starts off the show by acknowledging that the NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder is set, but he'll be previewing that during Wednesday's show (2:12). Bo brings up an article from The Athletic written about the Knicks right after their Game 6 Eastern Conference Finals loss (3:43), which highlighted issues with Karl-Anthony Towns, specifically with his defensive efforts (5:41). Bo also asks how Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson can be on the court at the same time if they're both poor defensively (17:00). Bo transitions to Inside The NBA leaving TNT and moving to ESPN (18:34), which has Bo hoping ESPN does postgame shows (30:41) and why Charles Barkley is the most important person in sports media (31:30). And finally, we have another round of If You Haven't Heard stories involving anonymous employee surveys, how to disappear off the grid and how every college student is just using AI (37:47). Then Bomani listens to some voicemails about the time you tried to fight your father.

The New York Knicks lost in the Eastern Conference Finals and they left us with more questions than answers. Here on Oddball we ask, What's Knixt? Karl-Anthony Towns and Jalen Brunson don't work well together. KAT was not defensively strong. And Brunson is not a happy passer. Can the Knicks run it back with the same lineup? Tom Thibodeau took the Knicks the farthest they have been in 25 years, but is he worth another year? Who could be the missing piece in the Knicks lineup? Giannis Antetokounmpo? Kevin Durant? LeBron James? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Logan, Raja, and Howard open the pod with some Miami traffic talk and a debate on which NBA cities have the worst traffic. The guys then recap Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals, in which the Knicks defeated the Pacers and staved off elimination. What did the Knicks do differently in Game 5 to secure victory against the Pacers? Does the duo of Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns need to be respected more? What do both the Knicks and Pacers need to do to win Game 6? Was the Timberwolves' chemistry off in their Game 5 blowout loss to the Thunder? What's next for the Wolves roster this offseason? What do they need to add? Plus, a loaded mailbag!

On Fri.'s No Dunks, the guys discuss Jalen Brunson helping the Knicks force a Game 6, Karl-Anthony Towns' bully ball, Tyrese Haliburton's no-show, the best defense of Landry Shamet's life, too many Pacers mistakes, and what to watch for Saturday night in Indiana. That, plus Kevin Durant's interesting offseason ahead, Jrue Holiday trade rumors, things we're interested in, and more. See you Sunday morning, NBA sickos.▶️ Join No Dunks on Playback : https://www.playback.tv/nodunks

Tyrese Haliburton is lighting up the Knicks and his stats are impressive, but even he agrees we are cherry picking. Does he belong in conversations with the best point guards of all time? Jalen Brunson has been exposed in this series as a defensive and offensive liability. The offense should flow through Karl-Anthony Towns if the Knicks expect to get a pride win in front of their home crowd. The Knicks can't build around two defensive liabilities, so the only answer for New York is... more Mitchell Robinson? Or maybe they can just blame the refs. Plus, the famous Akbar Domestique joins Oddball to talk about the artistry of flopping and helps break down our Iciest Play of the Week.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Logan Murdock and Raja Bell start the pod by reminiscing about Allen Iverson's Philly days, and then they immediately shift to the Western Conference finals. The Oklahoma City Thunder have taken a commanding 3-1 lead in the WCF following a Game 4 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves Monday night. How has OKC taken Anthony Edwards out of his offensive game and forced the Wolves' role players to make plays? How has the physicality been in the WCF, and is SGA getting a more favorable whistle than others ? Karl Anthony-Towns had the performance of a lifetime, dropping 20 fourth-quarter points in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference finals to help the Knicks avoid an 0-3 record. Can the Knicks take Game 4 in Indy and reclaim home-court advantage? Plus, Podcast P is back with another clip The Real Ones had to discuss.

For the first time in 25 years, the Knicks won an ECF game. Karl-Anthony Towns played like garbage in the first three quarters, but then he put up 20 points in the fourth. Has any other NBA player redeemed themselves in a single quarter like KAT did? Tom Thibodeau is being hailed as the Knicks savior for finally using his bench... but would he have done it if KAT and Brunson hadn't gotten into foul trouble? Is Haliburton aura farming? No championship team has lost a playoff game by 40+ points until the Thunder lost to the T-Wolves, so they can't win a championship… or can they? Plus, we play Hot-Streak and breakdown the surprises and snubs of the recently announced All-NBA teams.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

That, plus All-NBA takeaways, what to watch in tonight's Thunder-Wolves, a scary Indy 500 rabbit hole, 'Mission: Impossible' reviews, and more.▶️ Join No Dunks on Playback : https://www.playback.tv/nodunks

Bomani Jones is joined by The Kid Mero of 7 PM in Brooklyn to discuss the New York Knicks vs Boston Celtics playoff series. Bo and Mero start off the show joking about their bodies failing them once they reached the age of 40 (0:50) and how they can't recover from injuries like they used to (2:13). Bo praises Mero for wearing a Knicks Dominican Republic version of a Karl-Anthony Towns jersey (6:30) and Mero says why KAT and Mitchell Robinson could turn into a version of Tim Duncan & David Robinson (10:26). Bo shares his doubts about the Knicks winning this series (18:14) and Mero explains why the Celtics are the corniest NBA team (23:40). They move onto the other NBA topics where they compare Anthony Edwards to an IMAX movie (33:24), why the bad commercials weren't Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's fault (37:59) and that Nikola Jokic's brothers look like henchmen from a movie (46:26). They round out the show imagining Cooper Flagg's life on Duke's campus (52:01) and the ongoing Diddy trial. (59:28) . . .
