The Rickey Smiley Morning Show kicks off with major culture-shifting moments as the cast celebrates Sinners making history at the Oscars, with Michael B. Jordan winning Best Actor, Ryan Coogler taking home Best Original Screenplay, and Autumn Durald Arkapaw becoming the first woman—and first Black woman—to ever win Best Cinematography. The crew reflects on what the film’s record-setting 16 nominations and multiple wins mean for Black creatives in Hollywood and why this moment feels bigger than just awards season. The conversation then turns to Michael Jordan, who recalls a terrifying autograph signing early in his career where a crowd surge nearly turned deadly—an experience that explains why he rarely signs autographs today and how fame can quickly become dangerous. The show also welcomes Judge Glenda Hatchett for a powerful, wide-ranging conversation about justice, advocacy, and her continued fight for accountability in Black maternal health after losing her daughter-in-law to preventable childbirth complications. She shares why she now takes on maternal death cases nationwide and highlights her new children’s book Goal Girls, created to inspire young girls to dream boldly and confidently. Wrapping things up, the team breaks down new developments in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ legal battle, as his attorneys argue his 50‑month federal sentence under the Mann Act is excessive and are pushing for immediate release or resentencing, calling the punishment a “perversion of justice” as the appeal moves forward.

The big secret of success, whether it's in investing… in professional sports… or in copywriting, is one in the same: A focus on, and a mastery of, the fundamentals.The legendary basketball player Michael Jordan put it this way: “Get the fundamentals down and the level of everything you do will rise.”We've never done a show that just focused on copywriting fundamentals, so what better time than now?And one of the best sources of an expert list of the fundamentals is John Caples, in his book Tested Advertising Methods. There was nothing fancy or intellectual about what Caples said or did, and yet he was one of the greatest direct response copywriters of all time.So our Old Masters Series turns to the late John Caples for source material. Based on his book, we've put together a list of fundamentals that everyone should remember and practice. It's easy to forget or get distracted by the latest shiny object, but ultimately, to win, you always have to go back to the fundamentals.That's what we're going to do today.RESOURCE:Tested Advertising Methods, 5th Editionhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0130957011
Send a textYou can learn a lot about people from two things: the movies they consider “required viewing” and the song they swear will change the mood in a car. We start with a confession that sparks instant chaos, one of us is only now getting around to a legendary Black film, and the whole room turns into a loud, funny, very opinionated watchlist session. If you're into pop culture podcasts, Black cinema, and the kind of debates that feel like a real group chat, this one is for you. Then we lean into the impossible questions. Would you rather live with Bill Gates-level money or Michael Jordan-level aura? And if you had to erase a music giant's impact, are you cutting Quincy Jones or Babyface? We talk producer legacy, songwriting credits, era bias, and why certain R&B classics still run people's lives. The conversation naturally turns into relationship music: greatest love songs, best heartbreak tracks, and the one “close the deal” pick that says way more about you than you think. We wrap by bouncing through club anthems, a spicy Drake argument, a debate on the most intimidating athletes, and rapid-fire movie talk that ranges from iconic performances to Quentin Tarantino habits and AI-driven trailers.

On this episode of On The Ball with Ric Bucher, Ric digs into the fallout from Bam Adebayo's shocking 83-point explosion against the Washington Wizards — and explains why the number itself is far less important than how it happened.Ric argues that the game was less a historic masterpiece than a glaring example of how stat-chasing, context-free analysis, and modern NBA narratives can distort reality. From Dennis Rodman's rebounding legacy to David Robinson's 71-point scoring-title push, James Harden's foul hunting, and LeBron James' record-padding accusations, Ric connects Bam's 83 to a much bigger conversation: Have NBA fans become too obsessed with numbers and not obsessed enough with what they're actually watching?He also breaks down why context matters more than box scores, why comparing eras has become increasingly dishonest, why Michael Jordan's fundamentals and degree of difficulty still separate him from LeBron James, and why today's NBA discourse often values viral stats over real understanding.This is a sharp, provocative episode about NBA history, media narratives, stat inflation, and the danger of trusting numbers without using your eyes.

Legendary NBA writer Bob Ryan joins Combo to discuss Jayson Tatum's return to the court and how his comeback could reshape the Boston Celtics' championship outlook. Bob explains why even an early version of Tatum immediately elevates Boston into the Eastern Conference contender conversation. The conversation expands into some of basketball's biggest conversations. Bob shares his thoughts on Nikola Jokic's place among the greatest centers ever, why Anthony Edwards reminds him of a Michael Jordan lineage of explosive scorers, and why the GOAT discussion still comes down to two names: Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Plus: • Why the Eastern Conference is wide open • The Celtics' roster depth and playoff outlook • Luka Dončić criticism and modern NBA narratives • Why some historic prospects actually lived up to the hype Subscribe to Combo's Court on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube (Combo TV)

The conversation begins with a deeper look at selling in the hobby and whether there is still a negative stigma around trying to maximize returns, flipping cards, or moving inventory strategically. Jeremy, Joe, Greg, and Jason talk through the difference between ethical selling and short-term opportunism, the role of dealers and flippers in the ecosystem, and why so many collectors still have conflicted feelings about money, pricing, and reputation in the hobby. From there, the show shifts as Jason exits and Josh Adams and Chris McGill join the conversation. Chris returns from the injured reserve list and immediately gets into the aftermath of the Michael Jordan 1 of 1 auction that had captured so much attention. Rather than just revisiting the final price, the group explores the bigger question: why didn't Chris buy the card, and what did he learn from going through that process so deeply? That leads into one of the most insightful parts of the segment, as Chris reflects on the value proposition, the research, the emotional pull of a grail, and the reality of deciding what cards would have to go in order to make room for one massive acquisition. Jeremy, Joe, and Josh all weigh in on consolidation, regret, collecting discipline, and the psychological cost of moving deliberate, carefully chosen cards out of a collection for one apex piece. The result is a thoughtful discussion on what it means to go all in, when it makes sense to tap out, and how collectors should think about major decisions when a once-in-a-lifetime card comes to market. The segment also touches on the difference between rooting for a grail pursuit and believing it is truly the right move.

Combo and YouTuber/NBA Historian Mike Korzemba deep dive into some of the biggest debates in hoops. They start with the ultimate question: how would Michael Jordan look in today's NBA? Would the spacing, pace, and freedom of the modern game unlock an even more unstoppable version of MJ?

This week on Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank, the guys kick things off with the “Barry Bonds episode,” debating one of the most controversial questions in baseball history: Should Barry Bonds be in the Hall of Fame despite the steroid era? Dan and Frank break down Bonds' legendary talent, his transformation later in his career, and whether his dominance—especially when pitchers were terrified to throw him strikes, still deserves Cooperstown recognition.With the sports calendar in a bit of a lull, the conversation shifts across several leagues and headlines. The crew looks at the NHL trade deadline, why it produced more buzz than actual movement, and then jumps into a surprising NASCAR storyline, including a historic three-race winning streak by one driver from Michael Jordan's team, something never accomplished even by legends like Earnhardt or Petty.The discussion then turns toward the WNBA and the economics of sports, as the hosts debate player salaries, league profitability, and the realities of revenue generation in professional athletics. From ticket sales to merchandise to television ratings, the guys explore the complicated relationship between popularity, viewership, and player compensation.College basketball also gets some attention as March Madness approaches, with Duke and North Carolina preparing for another rivalry clash and bracket season right around the corner. The hosts discuss their early tournament thoughts and plans for their annual bracket challenge.From there, the show dives into the NFL offseason, including reactions to the combine and early predictions for how a chaotic Top 10 in the upcoming draft might unfold. The guys also examine the ever-changing landscape of NIL in college sports, debating whether paying young athletes has permanently altered college athletics, and whether anyone, including the government, could realistically fix the system.Along the way, the crew touches on the World Baseball Classic, Shohei Ohtani's continued dominance, the risks of pitchers going all-out during spring training, and even a bizarre story involving a baseball broadcaster, a chainsaw accident, and a stubborn refusal to go to the hospital.Of course, it wouldn't be Sports Fellowship without some classic back-and-forth debates, especially when it comes to the NBA playoff race, where bold predictions and friendly trash talk fly about which teams actually have a shot at the Finals.It's another lively episode filled with sports analysis, humor, storytelling, and the occasional rabbit trail that only Fox and Frank can deliver.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist Church of Phillipsburg NJ - http://www.fbcpburg.org/
Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com If you want crazy results you gotta train with crazy people. If you wanna be rich you gotta hang out with rich people, if you want to be smart you gotta hang out with smart people and if you want to be Godly… you guessed it - and thats where we are going today. My Granddaughter has one functioning kidney… Since birth, her non-functonal left kidney has had fluid surrounding it. They've monitored it because if it gets to be any more, she has risk for infection or something more serious. Today, for the first time, our urologist said that the dilation around that kidney was GONE. They don't wanna see her again until she's 13! BUT UNDERSTAND LIFE IS SHORT Life is short Olympics is years for seconds. The 100 meter dash, years of training, dieting, working out, stretching, overcoming injuries, saying no to normal life activities - all for less than 10 seconds… I run the race to finish (Apostle Paul) life is short! The training isn't for life, its for eternity. THE LAST DANCE Key Quotes and Descriptions: Jud Buechler: "People were afraid of him... The fear factor of MJ was so, so thick". Will Perdue: "Let's not get it wrong: He was an a--hole... He was a jerk. He crossed the line numerous times". Horace Grant: "It was a bully approach... If you didn't confront Mike, he would ride you every day, all day, all the time". Scottie Pippen: "He Couldn't Have Been More Condescending If He Tried". Steve Kerr: Regarding their practice fight, Kerr noted that Jordan "tested everybody he played with”. BJ Armstrong: "Was he a nice guy? He couldn't have been nice. With that kind of mentality he had, you can't be a nice guy. He would be difficult to be around if you didn't truly love the game of basketball". Michael Jordan (defending his approach): "Winning has a price. And leadership has a price". MJ emotional in the last dance: You ask my teammates and they will say One thing about Michael Jordan was he never asked me to do something that he didn't do when people see this well he wasn't really a nice guy. He may have been a tyrant well that's you because you never wanted anything. I wanted to win, but I wanted them to win and to be a part of that as well, but I don't have to do this. I'm only doing it because it is who I am. That's how I played the game that was my mentality, if you don't wanna play that way, don't play that way. Break When Jesus says “take up your cross” he says it in this same context as MJ. Right here in verse 22 Luke 9:22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised.”
Will Tom Brady be the modern-day Bugsy Siegel in Las Vegas? Being a great player is no guarantee of future success as a coach or executive. Michael Jordan, a majority owner of the Charlotte Bobcats/Hornets, and Wayne Gretzky, behind the bench for the Phoenix Coyotes, were classic examples. Jason questions whether Brady, a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, will follow suit as the sometimes not-so-stealthy leader of the team. The Raiders imploded last season with a new head coach and quarterback and now are on the verge of losing the face of the franchise, Maxx Crosby, while beginning anew with a different head coach and quarterback. Steve Kim and Jay Skapinac join the conversation, responding to Stephen A. Smith explaining how he moved on up from the mean streets; Kendrick Perkins claiming that a title will elevate Jalen Brunson to the greatest player in New York Knicks history; and Fight Night at a women's college basketball game. Shaun King shares his takes on Logan Paul offering $1 million to any NFL player who can beat him in combat; the A's telling Kyler Murray he can come home; and the Los Angeles Rams sending a bevy of draft picks to Kansas City for premium cornerback Trent McDuffie.

This week on The Blizzard with Babyface and Seth, the guys kick things off by explaining why they hate talking politics… and then immediately give their very quick (and very self-aware) take on the war — along with a reminder that absolutely no one is waiting on their geopolitical expertise.From there, it's back to what they do best: sports debates that spiral beautifully. They break down Maxx Crosby and his impact, get into a generational showdown between Caitlin Clark and Billie Jean King, and then tackle the ultimate crossover debate — Michael Jordan vs. Tiger Woods. Dominance, pressure, cultural impact — it's all on the table.Politics avoidance, legendary athletes, and completely unqualified opinions — just another Blizzard.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A potential jersey number change from Abdul Carter sparks a surprisingly passionate debate. If a player switches numbers after fans already bought the jersey, who really pays the price? Evan and Tiki Barber discuss why more pass rushers want single digit numbers, whether players should have to wait years before changing them, and how trends from stars like Micah Parsons and Kayvon Thibodeaux have made the look more popular. They also dive into famous jersey number changes across sports including Michael Jordan wearing 45 after his return and Kobe Bryant switching numbers mid career. Then it's time for Cinco de Luncho, with the Top 5 Worst Places to Fall Asleep… from school to public transportation, and even a certain viral moment at the NFL Combine. Along the way the guys also hit on Giants training camp possibly heading to West Virginia and the never ending Jets quarterback debate.
Bomani Jones joins Stugotz, and the conversation starts in the only place Stugotz would begin: telling LeBron James that if he really wants to catch Michael Jordan in the GOAT conversation, he’s going to have to win in NASCAR. Then, we get Bomani's thoughts on Magic City getting its own tribute night in Atlanta. They break down the Celtics bringing Jayson Tatum back from injury, what that means for their title hopes, and whether the Knicks making a deep playoff run is actually realistic or just wishful thinking.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michael Jordan saved Nike, he saved the NBA, and now he might save NASCAR. Jordan and Tyler Reddick have opened the NASCAR season with three straight wins. Despite ESPN disregarding the accomplishment, Jordan is demanding attention. He is the last standing true iconic sports star.

Jason highlights the special and competitive aspects that differentiate Michael Jordan. Steve Kim, Jay Skapinac, and Dre Baldwin join the show to discuss. Also, does Luka Doncic have beef with J.J. Redick? Bucky Brooks takes the baton for the final lap, covering all things NFL Combine, featuring Jeremiyah Love, Sonny Styles, and a highly rated prospect who actually wants to play in Cleveland.
