From Michael Jordan's three-peat Bulls to Kobe Bryant's unforgettable championship moment, Jeff's work has defined the culture of basketball, hip-hop, and fashion for decades.

The struggles he faced after selling his company, hitting rock bottom, and how Kobe's passing reignited his passion. Why being an immigrant fueled his hunger for success and how he views his legacy today. The balance between creativity, discipline, and authenticity in an industry built on hype.

In part four of the Sports Cards Live stream from Saturday, August 23, 2025, the Jordan–Kobe Dual Logoman Exquisite Autograph surges past the $10 million mark live on air, ultimately climbing toward its record-breaking $12M+ finish. Jeremy, Brent Weyer, and Chris McGill track the drama in real time, unpacking what the sale means for grading, rarity, and the psychology of high-stakes bidding. The discussion ranges from the legitimacy of “manufactured rarity” to whether grade even matters for a one-of-one grail. The panel also wrestles with a central hobby question: if Michael Jordan is clearly No. 1, who is No. 2? Names like Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Tom Brady are all debated as the community weighs legacy, market caps, and cultural impact. Highlights include: The Jordan–Kobe Logoman breaking into 8-figure territory live on Sports Cards Live Manufactured rarity vs. organic rarity in the hobby Does grade matter at all for one-of-ones? Ego, status, and trophy bidding in high-end auctions The debate over who ranks No. 2 after Michael Jordan — Mantle, Ruth, LeBron, Kobe, Brady, or someone else? Shaq's surprising hobby index strength and whether undervalued stars ever catch up This was one of the most electric hobby nights in recent memory — and Sports Cards Live was right there with the audience as history unfolded.

Kobe Bryant Movie in the Works: Warner Bros. Nabs Spec Script About Lakers Star's Dramatic Draft Day Two men were arrested for allegedly breaking and entering into Paycor Stadium, with one facing charges for attempting to steal a barbecue smoker.

But that's set to change soon, developers tell Urbanize Atlanta.

I interviewed Jimmy Soni, who is currently writing a book about Kobe Bryant. He spent six years on his previous book about the origin story of PayPal and has mastered the art of investigative biography. We talked about his 4am writing routine, how he blends research and writing to battle writers block, why he finds the best stories by talking to people on the periphery, his thoughts on using AI as a writing tool, and his experience creating a new publishing company. If you're interested in writing better non-fiction, doing deeper research, or finding the stories everyone else misses, this conversation will show you exactly how to do that. Hey! I'm David Perell and I'm a writer, teacher, and podcaster. I believe writing online is one of the biggest opportunities in the world today. For the first time in human history, everybody can freely share their ideas with a global audience. I seek to help as many people publish their writing online as possible.

Edwin Hodge finds out in this middle grade novel by Dan Gutman, bestselling author of My Weird School series. There were so many things Edwin Hodge didn't know when he paid $10 for a cool poster of Kobe Bryant at the local flea market. He didn't know that hidden within the frame of the poster was an original drawing by Pablo Picasso, one of the most famous artists in history. He didn't know the Picasso might be worth millions of dollars. He didn't know that kids at school were going to treat him differently, or that he would become a world famous social media superstar. And he sure didn't know that people would tap his phone, follow him home, break into his house, or threaten to burn it down. He didn't know the Picasso was going to ruin his life.

0:00 ... Opening animation and welcome to Amar Shah ... a basketball savant, former colleague at ESPN, and longtime "brother and friend." 0:56 ... Amar's family immigrated from India and settled in Deland, Florida in the 1980s. His story really begins at the Phillips 66 gas station his father bought. 2:52 ... Amar first reached the national scene in 2018 when he wrote an Op Ed piece for the Washington Post where he wrote about his father, whom he compared to Apu from "The Simpsons." Amar explains why he wrote the piece. The story had more than 10 million engagements and resonated around the country and even the world. 6:18 ... As a 14 year old high school kid, Amar had an incredible opportunity to cross paths with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, which was his first encounter with an NBA icon. Amar shares the story of a "confrontation" with Bulls coach Phil Jackson. That encounter lit the journalistic fire in the skinny adolescent that has burned brightly for more than three decades. 11:25 ... Jackson was always fond of sending books to his players so Bruce asks Amar if he would send his books (he's published four) to the coach? 12:22 ... After the notoriety he received from his encounter with the Bulls, it helped "Teenaged Amar" to begin an incredible relationship with Shaquille O'Neal which eventually landed him on the cover of Sports Illustrated for Kids with Shaq. This story is mind boggling on so many levels. 20:15 ... As a 16 year old, Amar also had an interview with Kobe Bryant and as is usually the case with Amar, there is a great story involved. 24:26 ... Bruce asks about Amar's newest book "I Wish I Was a Baller." The book is targeted towards middle school-aged kids and Amar discusses the lessons he hoped to share with his readers. He also explains how the book evolved from its original form into a graphic novel and the process involved. 29:52 ... Amar was a production assistant at ESPN back in 2004 when Bruce first met him. The advice Bruce gave Amar and others was to be "aggressive but patient." Amar explains how he cracked that code. 32:04 ... The ESPN experience for production assistants was incredibly demanding. Amar compares it to a "Hunger Games" type of environment and how it prepared him for everything that followed in his career. 33:57 ... Amar has succeeded in creating content on many different platforms, and he shares one of his most cherished future goals. 35:09 ... His film "The Patel Motel Story" was the story of how immigrants from the Gujarat area of India came to dominate the motel industry. Amar explains the history of how this happened. 37:30 ... Much of Amar's work celebrates how Indian immigrants grabbed onto the American dream and he shares his thoughts on the pride he has in telling these distinctive stories. 38:46 ... Amar's storylines about coming of age as a teenager have resonated and he explains what a privilege it has been to have the opportunity to inspire his readers. 42:30 ... Bruce wonders if it was easier or harder to write about his own stories in "I Wish I Was a Baller" than it was to write his "Play The Game" books. All of them are "personal," but in different ways. 44:17 ... As for fan mail from the kids who read the books, Amar describes how parents have shared stories with him about how their kids consumed them. 44:58 ... Amar explains how all of his experiences on different platforms have helped him in the way he tells stories in his books. 46:18 ... After all of his accomplishments so far, what goals does Amar have for the future? 47:59 ... Amar lets everyone know how to reach him and order his books. 48:59 ... Bruce and Amar say goodbye .... TRT 49:20
General of Boravia Martin Harris has had not just an interesting career in pop culture, but his path to becoming an actor took him from being in a rock band, to working with the NBA, to being an actor. The advice to be an actor came from Black Mamba himself, Kobe Bryant. And for the first time ever I'm pretty sure, we talk about Bronny and LeBron James. Good thing Kobe pointed him in the right direction or we would have never seen him in shows like Young Sheldon, Stranger Things, or even one of the biggest movies of the summer of 2025 - Superman. Martin plays the General of Boravia in that movie. And if you haven't seen Superman yet, WHAT ARE YA WAITING FOR?

On this episode, the guys started without even realizing the cameras were on. They caught themselves talking about things they usually discuss when women aren't around. They talked about being a man for your woman when another man tries to make a move, and what they would do in those situations afterward. They also discussed how women's culture has changed over the generations. The episode then shifted to a hip-hop debate. They discussed the recent backlash Lil Yachty faced for dissing the late George Floyd, who died at the hands of a police officer a couple of years ago. They also talked about who was a better lyricist between TI and Young Joe, and whether TI gets overlooked. They discussed whether 2chainz is in the conversation of one of the best lyricists from Atlanta. They also spoke about Ludacris's music, his decline in hip-hop, and Gucci Mane's underrated lyricism from Atlanta. They then moved on to discussing whether Shedeur Sanders should be elevated in the depth chart in Cleveland, and why Joe Flacco was named the starter. They talked about NBA YoungBoy's recent album, Deshawn, which only sold 11,000 copies in its first week. They then delved into the topic of NBA super teams and what makes a team one. They concluded with a brief greatest of all time debate about Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, and Michael Jordan. https://www.youtube.com/c/BadSpeakersTV https://www.instagram.com/badspeakerspodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@badspeakerspodcast https://twitter.com/BadSpeakers https://www.facebook.com/badspeakerspodcast

Get your ticket today!Check out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1024"That dark energy, that anger, was the source of his power. It's kind of like Star Wars - how you use that dark energy and transform it into something positive." - Robert GreeneRobert Greene doesn't sugarcoat the truth about what drives greatness. The master strategist behind "The 48 Laws of Power" reveals something most people are afraid to admit: our darkest emotions - anger, bitterness, frustration - often contain the raw fuel for extraordinary achievement. He wasn't driven to write his first book by love and positivity, but by a burning need to prove everyone wrong. And he's not alone. Kobe Bryant openly confessed that his legendary competitiveness came from wanting to "crush" opponents on the court, channeling what he called his "dark energy" into becoming one of basketball's greatest players.This isn't about becoming a toxic person or letting anger consume you. Greene explores the delicate art of transformation - how champions like LeBron James harness their drive and competitive fire on the court, then channel that same intensity into building schools and giving back to their communities. The key isn't eliminating these powerful emotions, but learning to direct them toward something meaningful. If you've ever felt guilty about being driven by anger or frustration, this conversation will completely shift how you see your own motivation.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

A native of Wroclaw, Poland, Martin started his career as an international sportswriter, broadcaster and author, spending two decades covering NBA games and publishing two acclaimed books on basketball. It was during this time that he met the late Kobe Bryant, who encouraged him to follow his passion for performance. Inspired by that advice, and an obsession with classic films, James Bond thrillers, and the work of Robert De Niro, Martin began training as an actor in his 30s, studying intensively at the Stella Adler Theater and the Beverly Hills Playhouse. He officially made the leap to full-time acting in his early 40s and quickly built an impressive resume, appearing in hit series like Stranger Things (Netflix), The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (Amazon), Better Call Saul (AMC), and Young Sheldon (CBS). His film credits include James Gunn's reboot of Superman, Amsterdam, The Gray Man, The Hunt, and Red Notice, where he played a prison tower sharpshooter. He's also recognized for his villainous turn as Lt. Nikolai Zybulski in TNT's post-apocalyptic series The Last Ship. In addition to his on-camera work, Martin does significant voice work for computer and video games, most notably as fan-favorite “Krueger” in the Call of Duty video game franchise. A lifelong rock music fan, he once fronted a heavy metal band in Poland called Army of Darkness. He's also an avid art collector, with a particular interest in South American contemporary art and 18th-century English portraiture. want to watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

In this episode of Stranger Fruit, we explore the double meaning of “Bear” — both the act of enduring life's burdens and the act of baring our souls to others in order to heal. These two actions, while deeply human, can also be terrifying, mirroring the fear of coming face-to-face with the animal itself. Dr. Jonathan Willard joins us to discuss how we can confront, tame, and even befriend the internal bears that challenge us. We talk about the delicate balance between strength and vulnerability, the importance of self-awareness, and the ways in which facing our fears can help us become the best versions of ourselves.
