Podcasts about New York Knicks

This week we took a detour into the joy of the Knicks championship and what it says about New York, collective identity, and why Zohran Mamdani’s politics make sense in a city where the billionaire and the bodega worker share the same sewer pipe. Then we got back to the markets, where a flood of new share issuances is quietly changing the supply and demand math that’s driven equities upward for 40 years. With bond yields actually competing for attention, the irrational exuberance warnings are starting to sound less crazy.

B-52 Bomber Crashes In California. Trump At NYC Parade? Knicks At White House? Primaries Tues In Alabama, Dc, Georgia And Oklahoma. NYPD Rise To The Moment.  Independents have hit 47% of the country. Republicans are at 26%. Democrats at 27%. That's not a trend line — that's a tectonic shift, and the new CNN poll out today confirms what this show has been saying for years: the angry middle isn't homeless, it isn't tribeless, it's free. Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the numbers, what they mean for the 2026 midterms, and why younger voters, male voters, and white voters without college degrees are walking away from the GOP — and not running to the Democrats. From there, it's a full no-BS briefing. Iran has de facto control over the Strait of Hormuz and Trump is negotiating what looks like a surrender. Eight crew members are dead after a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base — a story buried under the noise. Closed primaries on Tuesday continue to disenfranchise nearly half the electorate. The NYPD is rising to meet a wild week of Knicks, World Cup, and parade security. And the big question hangs over Thursday: will Trump show up and shit on New York's joy, or stay in his tower? It's a sanctuary in a chaotic week — and a reminder that you're not alone in the angry middle. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

Relive the chaotic, emotional night the New York Knicks finally broke their 53-year drought to capture the 2026 NBA Championship. This episode captures a historic moment New York fans will never forget.

The Knicks are NBA champions, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dive into what that means for Jalen Brunson's place in New York sports history. After leading the franchise to the title, Brunson's legacy is no longer just about great performances or clutch moments. It is now about whether he has climbed past some of the city's most beloved legends. The conversation turns into a passionate ranking of New York icons, from Patrick Ewing, Henrik Lundqvist, Mike Piazza and Mark Messier to Eli Manning and Derek Jeter. Evan makes the case that Brunson's championship with the Knicks carries rare weight in this city, while Tiki and the callers push back with arguments about longevity, playoff runs, star power and the lasting meaning of championships.

After dropping a legendary 45 points to secure the Knicks' historic NBA championship, Jalen Brunson is officially the undisputed King of New York. Tune in as we break down his clutch, superstar performance and how he completely carried the team to title town when it mattered most.

Jalen Brunson has delivered the kind of championship moment Knicks fans waited generations to see, and now the debate gets bigger than basketball. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dig into where Brunson belongs on the New York sports icon ladder and whether ending the Knicks drought changes how he compares to legends like Eli Manning and Derek Jeter. The conversation weighs championships, expectations, franchise droughts, postseason impact and the unique pressure of winning in New York. From callers defending Jeter and Eli to old reactions to the Brunson signing, the episode captures how quickly a good player became the face of a title team and a citywide argument.

It wasn't just about the New York Knicks this weekend. The New York Mets did their job by chipping away at the Atlanta Braves division lead. P.S.

The Knicks are champions, and Joe Benigno is still trying to process what once felt impossible. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber talk with Joe about the emotion of seeing decades of heartbreak washed away, from Charles Smith and Reggie Miller to years of dysfunction and disbelief. The conversation dives into Jalen Brunson's place in Knicks history, the moves that built a title team, Mike Brown's impact, and why this championship feels like a release for generations of fans. Plus, the guys debate Brooklyn's identity problem, celebrate the Knicks fans they are happiest for, and revisit how Brunson's clutch playoff run compares to other New York sports legends.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber address a controversial social media post from their digital team regarding a Jalen Brunson and Jacob deGrom legacy debate that they never actually had. The conversation shifts to James Dolan's leaked championship speech for the Knicks, where he jokingly suggested a ten-week sex ban for the players. 01:50 - Social Media Graphic Backlash 03:04 - Yankees Injury Updates 04:55 - Brendan Soresby Gambling Lawsuit 06:11 - NFL Supplemental Draft Logistics 15:55 - Fan Focus & MLB Previews 18:15 - Knicks vs Yankees Popularity 23:10 - Jalen Brunson's Playoff Legacy 28:50 - James Dolan's Leaked Speech 30:45 - Dolan's Player Sex Ban 37:01 - Mike Brown's Coaching Success

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the newly released audio of James Dolan's speech to the Knicks, including his memorable challenge to the players and his promise to buy rings for their significant others if they won it all. The conversation digs into Dolan's changing image in New York, whether Knicks fans would now forgive his past mistakes, Mike Brown's coaching résumé, and why this Knicks run has captivated the city in a way few teams can match.

The Knicks are NBA champions, and Jalen Brunson's place in New York sports history is suddenly the debate of the city. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to Brunson delivering the kind of moment Knicks fans waited generations to see, then ask how far one championship can carry him among New York's most beloved sports figures. The conversation turns into a passionate climb up the New York icon ladder, with Brunson compared to Tiki, Curtis Martin, Alex Rodriguez, Henrik Lundqvist, Patrick Ewing, Mike Piazza, Mark Messier, Eli Manning and Derek Jeter. Evan argues that leading the Knicks to a title carries a rare weight in this city, while Tiki and the crew push back with points about longevity, legacy, playoff greatness and what it really means to become a New York legend.

Jalen Brunson's championship with the Knicks sets off a heated debate about where he now belongs among New York's biggest sports legends. Evan Roberts argues that Brunson did something so rare and meaningful for the city that he has already moved past names like Eli Manning and Derek Jeter, while Tiki Barber pushes back on how quickly one title can rewrite the hierarchy. The conversation digs into what truly makes a New York icon, from championship runs and franchise droughts to star power, toughness, clutch moments and lasting love from fans. Callers jump in with passionate cases for Brunson, Eli, Messier and Jeter, turning the discussion into a larger question about whether the magnitude of saving the Knicks can outweigh longevity, rings and worldwide fame.

Joe Benigno joins Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber to process a Knicks championship that he never thought he would live to see. After decades of heartbreak, bad decisions and unforgettable playoff scars, Joe explains why this title finally buries the ghosts that haunted generations of Knicks fans. The conversation covers Jalen Brunson's place in franchise history, the brilliance of Leon Rose's roster moves, Mike Brown's championship impact, and the role players who helped finish the job. Joe also reflects on what this win means for the rest of his fandom, whether the parade is in play, and why this moment brings a rare sense of peace after a lifetime of New York sports pain.

Bobby and Eddie return for another edition of Current Stuff. They debate the backlash Taylor Swift received for showing up at a Knicks playoff game and whether fans are making it way too much about her. Then, after hearing from Phoebe Bridgers about banning phones at concerts, the guys discuss whether giving up your phone for a show is the future or a terrible idea.?Plus, Bobby asks if monoculture is officially dead and breaks down the last events that truly brought everyone together. And looking ahead, which celebrities will still matter 20 years from now? Plus, the most surprising experience Bobby has had with having guests at his house. Watch The BobbyCast on Netflix!

The Devil's Ledger | Week of June 15th, 2026 This week on The Devil's Ledger, we begin with something that feels almost surreal—the New York Knicks are World Champions. A long-awaited moment for a franchise and a fanbase that has carried decades of hope, frustration, and belief. From the Canyon of Heroes to living rooms across the country, this is more than a title—it's a moment etched into the mythology of New York sports. The Creepiest Thing I Heard This Week A moment in time that may not have moved the way it should have. We revisit Game 3 of the 1999 Eastern Conference Finals, when Larry Johnson stepped to the line for one of the most iconic plays in Knicks history. But for those who were there, the memory isn't just the shot—it's what happened right before it. A strange thinning of sound. A collective pause. A sense that something had aligned just long enough for the outcome to land exactly where it was supposed to. Was it pressure? Adrenaline? Or something harder to explain? On The Devil Within We launch a brand-new summer series: Campfire Files: Stories That Follow Us Home These aren't distant legends or secondhand stories. These are grounded, firsthand accounts that begin in the places we trust the most—campgrounds, lakes, beaches, and vacation homes. We start in the Great Smoky Mountains, where a family trip turns into something far more unsettling. What begins as a quiet weekend in the woods slowly reveals something that doesn't behave the way it should—and doesn't stay where it started. We'll be here all summer, exploring encounters that begin in familiar places and follow people long after they leave. On Criminal Mischief Carolyn Ossorio returns with another sharp, unsettling look at the human condition—where ambition, envy, and pressure collide in ways that feel all too recognizable. These are the kinds of stories that happen more often than we'd like to admit—and still manage to surprise us every time. On The Culture of Criminal Cool Season One has wrapped, but the story may not be over. There are whispers of additional material, extended interviews, and possibly even new conversations with Adam Diaz. Nothing confirmed yet—but enough to keep your attention. On The Slippery This week's episode dives into the disturbing case of Dr. Thomas Weiner, once one of the most respected oncologists in Helena, Montana. What begins as the story of a trusted medical figure quickly unravels into something far darker, centered around a patient treated for over a decade for a disease they never had. As the investigation deepens, the image of a respected doctor begins to fracture—revealing patterns that raise troubling questions about trust, oversight, and how something like this could go on for so long. This Week in Horror A new film out of Norway taps into one of the oldest and most enduring myths: Kraken Strange behavior in marine life. Unexplained deaths in deep water. And the suggestion that something ancient has resurfaced. It's a return to elemental horror—vast, unknowable, and just beneath the surface.

The Greatest MAGA Military Recruiting Ad Ever. Iran and US Say They Have a Deal. Hegseth: Ecuador and Guatemala Are Next. Fox Gobbles Up Roku. USA Soccer Wins Big! Even Though Trump Called Them.  Sports is our mirror. On Saturday night, that mirror reflected the best of America — a 53-years-in-the-making Knicks championship built on a diverse, humble, durable team led by Jalen Brunson, a man who shook every hand on the losing side because integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody's watching. On Sunday night, the mirror reflected something uglier: a UFC card on the White House lawn, locked behind a Paramount Plus paywall, with no women on the card, fight bonuses paid in Trump-family crypto, and sponsors ranging from Elon's Starlink to Turning Point USA. The White House, Paul argues, was openly for sale — and most fight fans loved it. In this solo Monday briefing, Paul connects the dots between a triumphant Knicks parade week, a wildly effective piece of military-recruiting propaganda dressed up as an octagon, a U.S. World Cup team that just dropped three on its opener, a fragile Iran ceasefire with none of the original objectives met, Hegseth telegraphing Ecuador and Guatemala as next on the “Donroe” Doctrine hit list, and Fox swallowing Roku for $22 billion. He closes where the show always closes — with Brooklyn bikers carrying Narcan, an Angry Middle that isn't homeless but free, and a reminder that eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.
