The full crew is back — Grant, John Browner, David Bloom and Josh Tariff — and the biggest story finally has legs: Aaron Donald is coming back to the Rams. It's not official, but between the grainy footage at the Woodland Hills facility, Davante Adams' posts and Myles Garrett unpacking a signed jersey, the guys treat it as done and start dreaming on a Greatest Show on Turf defense — third-down packages, double-digit sack predictions, and a message for the smug defending-champion Seahawks they don't play until Christmas. Before that: the LeBron sweepstakes drags on with nobody actually knowing anything, and the panel torches the fake-sources economy — Kendrick Perkins, Pat Beverley, DraftKings odds, and how the ESPN insider machine really works. Plus final summer league verdicts: the Warriors win it all behind MVP Yaxel Lendeborg, Caleb Wilson looks like the best of the whole class, Aday Mara gets exposed, and the crew renders a split decision on Keaton Wagler's Vegas — Grant sees a second-half burst scorer the Clippers will let take his lumps, John sees a project who never passed the eye test. It ends with an 0-17 Cardinals prediction and a plea to Jacoby Brissett: take the money. New episodes drop nightly. Follow the crew and catch the post-show on X.

The NBA offseason has completely reshaped the league—and we're breaking down every major move. In this episode of Hoopsology In The Lab, Justin Goodrum, Matt Thomas, and Allan Muenzler analyze one of the most transformative NBA offseasons in recent memory. From blockbuster trades to LeBron James' uncertain future, this episode dives deep into the moves that could determine the next NBA champion. Topics Include:
It's a Clippers summer league postgame reaction show with the perfect crew for it — Grant, Beav and David Bloom, three guys who love the Clippers and hate them a little bit sometimes. Keaton Wagler sits out against the Wizards and the panel splits: Grant wanted him on the floor building confidence against lower competition, David says resting a top-five pick on a back-to-back is just what summer league is, and Beav is frustrated the Clippers won't let a struggling 19-year-old develop. Meanwhile the guys who did play looked good — Kobe Sanders drops 26 and gets caught mic'd up leading the huddle, Nick "The Juice" Martinelli keeps earning his roster card, and Yanic Konan Niederhauser tells Joey Lynn he's up from 238 to 265 pounds. Then it gets uncomfortable: is Cam Christie's time with the Clippers over? The crew debates the fan-favorite pipeline, why the franchise hits on second-rounders but can't find a homegrown star, whether this era matches the 2018–19 transition team, and Beav demands Adam Silver stop lying and let the Kawhi trade through. Plus a LeBron free agency check-in: Cleveland, Golden State, Philly or Miami? New episodes drop nightly. Follow the crew and catch the show on X.

Robert Horry, Rob Jenners, and B-Dog are coming off a Summer League week that didn't go the way anybody in Vegas planned, and they've got a full show sheet to prove it. They open by picking apart the Wizards shutting down rookie AJ Johnson, detour into an actual geography lesson about where you can find a Piggly Wiggly in Georgia, and Rob gets reminded that talking trash on this show always finds its way back to him — this time from Wizards fans after he named Washington his League Pass dark horse. From there it's a real basketball conversation. Horry breaks down training his son Christian in the gym for the first time in two years, and the guys dig into Jonathan Kuminga's stalled free agency before getting into the biggest story of the summer: Victor Wembanyama turning down the supermax to keep his young Spurs core paid. Horry explains why that move says more about Wemby's character than any stat line could, and the three of them go back and forth on whether he could become the first basketball billionaire — just not off American endorsement deals. The Bam Adebayo–Tyler Herro dust-up gets the full breakdown, including Tim Hardaway's comments about Heat culture and what it actually means to have your guy's back in a locker room. Then it's LeBron for the better part of twenty minutes — who's really leading the sweepstakes between Cleveland, Golden State, Philly, and Miami, why Draymond Green opting into free agency might be a tell, and how weird it is that people are treating LeBron's every move at Fanatics Fest like a decision-day clue. They close out the trade talk with where things stand on Kawhi Leonard, the ongoing NBA investigation, and why the Clippers front office has more explaining to do than Adam Silver let on. Once the basketball talk wraps, Avery Woolery — an 11-year-old kid from Kentucky who jumped in a pool to save a drowning man when the adults around him didn't — gets this week's Big Shot. And then the guys close out with a wild round of Black Crime or White Crime, headlined by maybe the strangest arson story any of them have ever read on air. 00:00 Cold Open: Vegas Summer League Fallout 01:00 AJ Johnson Shut Down & Rookie Development 03:00 Piggly Wiggly Rabbit Hole 04:30 Wizards Dark Horse Pick Comes Back to Bite Rob 06:00 Horry's Week: Disney Trip & Training Christian 08:00 Kuminga Free Agency & Lakers Buzz 09:30 Wemby Turns Down the Supermax 14:00 Could Wemby Be Basketball's Next Billionaire? 16:00 Bam vs. Tyler Herro: What Really Happened 18:30 Heat Culture Debate & Tim Hardaway's Comments 22:00 LeBron Sweepstakes: Who's Really In the Mix 26:30 LeBron and Draymond's Unlikely Friendship 27:30 Decoding LeBron's Decision Timeline 29:00 Cleveland, Philly, or Golden State? 33:00 Weighing Miami's Case in a Loaded East 37:00 Kawhi Trade Stuck in NBA Investigation Limbo 41:00 Free Agency Roundup: Trent Jr. & Clarkson 42:00 Big Shot of the Week: 11-Year-Old Pool Hero 43:00 Black Crime or White Crime

Randy Jones was a left-handed sinkerball pitcher who became one of the most unlikely stars of 1970s baseball, spending the bulk of his career with the San Diego Padres after being drafted in 1972. Undersized and lacking overpowering stuff, he relied on pinpoint control and a heavy sinking fastball to induce ground balls, leading the NL in wins and ERA in 1975 before an even better 1976, when he went 22-14 with a 2.74 ERA and an NL-record-tying 25 complete games to win the Cy Young Award. That July, he graced the cover of Sports Illustrated under the headline "San Diego's Confounding Randy Jones — Threat to Win 30," a nod to his 16-3 record at the All-Star break, a mark no pitcher has matched since. Elbow trouble eventually diminished his effectiveness, and he finished his career with 100 wins after a trade to the Mets in 1981, but he remained a fixture in San Diego as a broadcaster and ballpark personality, remembered as one of the most beloved Padres in franchise history. Ted Leitner, affectionately known as "Uncle Teddy," served as the radio play-by-play voice of the Padres for 41 seasons from 1980 to 2020, becoming one of the most recognizable figures in San Diego sports — as one local comedian joked, "there are only two kinds of people in San Diego: you either hate Ted Leitner, or you are Ted Leitner." A Bronx native, he paired his baseball duties with a long run as a KFMB-TV sports anchor and as the radio voice of San Diego State football and basketball, while also calling games for the Chargers and Clippers. He's best remembered for his decades-long partnership with fellow Hall of Fame broadcaster Jerry Coleman, together narrating the Padres' pennant runs in 1984 and 1998 and the careers of franchise icons like Tony Gwynn and Trevor Hoffman — a bond Leitner never fully recovered from losing after Coleman's death in 2014. His relationship with Randy Jones ran nearly as deep, dating back almost 50 years to when he covered Jones as the Padres' first true star during his playing days; the two later reconnected as club ambassadors together, with Leitner calling Jones "Mr. Everyman." After stepping away from the booth in 2021, Leitner was inducted into the Padres Hall of Fame in July 2022, cementing his legacy as the connective thread across generations of Padres history. Joining us on Past Our Prime, "Uncle Teddy" Leitner holds court — and folks, holding court is basically his day job. He tells us Randy Jones might've been the most likeable human to ever throw a baseball, a guy so charming he could talk Steve Carlton, Willie McCovey, and other future Hall of Famers into showing up on their pregame show for a soft-tossing lefty who, in his own words, "couldn't break a pane of glass." Case in point: Mike Schmidt once told Jones he should be embarrassed to pitch with stuff that slow — right before Jones went out and shut out the Phillies. Twice. Nothing quite like getting owned by a guy throwing batting practice. Leitner and Jones later became Padres ambassadors together, and Ted doesn't hide how hard it's hit him to lose his old pal — right on the heels of losing another lifelong friend, the legendary Jerry Coleman. And Coleman, it turns out, came with a Hall of Fame connection of his own: a friendship with Ted Williams so tight that Leitner practically got Splendid-Splintered by association with "the greatest hitter who ever lived." There are laughs, there are tears, and there's Ted being Ted for a full hour. It's a Ted Talk, literally, on Past Our Prime — and trust us, you don't want to miss this one.

Rob Parker and Kelvin Washington react to reports that the NBA is continuing to pursue Kawhi Leonard's alleged involvement in the Clippers controversy by delaying action on the Toronto trade situation. Rob believes it's in Toronto's best interest to stay patient, arguing that the league has historically been lenient in major scandals and pointing to recent gambling-related cases where punishments were viewed as relatively soft. Kelvin, however, sees the prolonged investigation differently, suggesting the NBA's willingness to keep digging could mean the league has uncovered something significant and may be preparing to come down hard. The guys debate what the delay means, whether Kawhi should be concerned, and what the NBA's next move could be.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
