Munaf Manji and Mackenzie Rivers talk all things NBA.
This week… Kärel and Max discuss and debate the most important issues facing our world; work beers, NFL conspiracies, The Miz Kid, used canoes, and bar top designs. Andy jumped on to discuss all the breaking news in the sports world. He broke down the Milwaukee Bucks ending Dame time and signing Myles Turner and the Brewers resurgence. The fellas dug into Jacob Misiorowski's background and found out how the Brewers acquired the young phenom. Then it was onto the NFL and its conspiracies. Max had quite the take on the Deshaun Watson downfall… I'll have whatever Max's smoking, he's out of his mind. The NFL is a fine upstanding organization and to question the shield is ludicrous! Max's views do not reflect the views of HUA or its sponsors. Shout out Heaven's Piss. Next Kärel battled the Dictionary and it's unanimous, he's getting smarter! Finally they ended things discussing their challenge. They've got a vision for the new bar top, now it comes down to execution and flattening some slabs! But before any of the nonsense, they saved the best for first, with the Beer of the Week! During the BOW the fellas rate and review a new beer. They discuss the history of the brewery and examine what's in the beer they're drinking. Then, they break down the beer by its drinkability, the probability they'd drink it again, its chugability, and the attractability of the can. Find out if Oskar Blues Brewery's Dale's Light Lager passed the HUA test.Beer of the Week: 05:45 - 59:20Sports World News: 01:03:20 - 02:38:00Kärel v.s.

It's a Wisconsin road trip this week for a sit down with Jordan Treske, author of "Building the Milwaukee Bucks: Kareem Abdul‑Jabbar, Oscar Robertson and the Rapid Rise of an NBA Franchise," to explore one of the most astonishing turnarounds in modern American pro sports history. Treske walks us through how Milwaukee rebounded from the loss of the MLB Braves to become an NBA basketball powerhouse in just three seasons — thanks to savvy ownership, an historic draft coin flip, and the ultimate pairing of two all-time greats: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (née Lew Alcindor) and Oscar Robertson. We'll also unpack the racial and cultural tensions of the era, the ABA bidding war, and the community's unique investment in the team. Whether you're a Bucks fan or a basketball history buff, this conversation offers fresh insight into how a franchise — and a city — found its "big league" identity through the game.

Hour 1 NBA free agency is buzzing, with the Bucks making moves and the Knicks signing Guerschon Yabusele. The NHL's free agency has been quieter, though the Rangers did pick up Vladislav Gavrikov. On the baseball front, the Yankees lost in Toronto due to defensive errors. The Mets face a doubleheader that will strain their pitching ahead of their series against the Yankees, a matchup that's sure to leave one fanbase fuming given both teams' recent pitching woes. Elsewhere, WNBA player Sophie Cunningham stirred controversy with her post-game actions and comments on league expansion. Hour 2 A production error led to the wrong Sports Minute being aired, much to Boomer's frustration. Discussions then turned to the puzzling trend of rising NBA salaries and high team valuations, like the Lakers' $10 billion sale, despite years of declining TV ratings. Callers suggested deals with gambling companies might be propping up the league. In other sports news, the Yankees lost in Toronto with more fielding issues, and George Springer hit two homers, including a grand slam. The hour concluded with news that NBA player Malik Beasley is under federal investigation for a potential sports betting scandal, prompting a caller to criticize leagues for their involvement with sportsbooks. Hour 3 Boomer was annoyed by a production error during the Sports Minute. Discussions continued on Malik Beasley's gambling accusations and the potential for players to fix prop bets. News updates included Red Panda's unicycle fall and George Springer's dominant performance against the Yankees. A caller suggested betting on WNBA "unders" based on players' menstrual cycles. Finally, a Queens driving school was exposed for illegal licenses, prompting a Google search for NYC's gambling revenue allocation, which largely funds public schools. Hour 4 The Mets and Yankees are struggling as they prepare for their series, with the Mets even lacking a Sunday starter. NBA free agency sees the Knicks' roster seemingly set and LeBron's agent claiming four teams are interested. A man shared his story of leaving his fiancée for an HR colleague. Updates included the Blue Jays beating the Yankees, the Nets introducing draft picks, and Gio predicting a terrible Dolphins season and Mike McDaniel's firing. The "Moment of The Day" featured a Pete Hoffman interview, and the show concluded with a Diamondbacks fan banned for repeated interference and a caller who tries to get six baseballs per game.

Malik Beasley at center of gambling investigation; Pistons pause deal talks with free agent, per reportOne of the NBA's top free agents is now the subject of a serious gambling investigation from the U.S. District Attorney's office. Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley faces allegations of gambling related to NBA games and prop bets during the 2023-24 season as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks, according to ESPN. One prominent sportsbook reportedly detected unusual betting activity on Beasley props beginning in early 2024. In a Jan. 31, 2024 matchup between the Bucks and Portland Trail Blazers, the odds on Beasley recording less than 2.5 rebounds moved significantly before the game, going from around +120 to -250 after the Under experienced a high amount of action. Beasley recorded six rebounds that night.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
