Justin Goodrum, Matt Thomas, and Allan Muenzler are back with a packed episode of "In the Lab," covering a coaching legend's legacy, a WNBA season boiling over with controversy, and a fresh update on one of the NBA's biggest ongoing scandals. The guys open with some personal updates and a preview of upcoming interviews — including a 45-minute conversation with former "Around the Horn" host Tony Reali and ESPN college basketball commentator Sam Gore — before honoring the legacy of Don Nelson, who passed away recently. They break down Nelson's Hall of Fame coaching career, his all-time wins record, his pioneering "Nellie Ball" style that helped shape the modern guard-heavy NBA, his role in drafting Stephen Curry, and a broader conversation about whether today's shorter coaching leashes mean we'll ever see a tenure like his again. From there, the show dives into the WNBA's latest firestorm. The hosts break down the flagrant foul from Chicago Sky's DJ Carrington on Sophie Cunningham, the social media fallout that followed, and play Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White's raw, emotional press conference defending her team. They also cover the rescinded technical foul involving Caitlin Clark before shifting into a pointed, opinionated discussion of WNBA leadership — including reaction to Front Office Sports reporter Colin Salao's take on what the league needs in its next commissioner, a breakdown of the publicity stunt surrounding Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White's threats to enter the WNBA draft, and renewed discussion of the Paige Bueckers–Angel Reese betting clip the league's own social account briefly promoted. Worth noting: this segment includes the hosts' own strong, candid opinions on some politically charged storylines around the league this season — presented as their take, not a neutral breakdown. The episode wraps with a pivot to the NBA, where the crew reacts to Pablo Torre's continued reporting on the Kawhi Leonard–Clippers sponsorship investigation, debating what consequences could be coming for Leonard and owner Steve Ballmer. They close with shoutouts to rookie standout Olivia Miles and the Golden State Valkyries' historic first season.

The sports journalist Pablo Torre recently won the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for audio reporting for an investigation on his podcast, “Pablo Torre Finds Out.” Torre talks with the New Yorker Radio Hour's David Remnick about the challenge of investigative reporting in professional sports—where leagues, owners, players, and sometimes even fans don't welcome hard questions. “As much as I am doing that and urging people to join me in the pool,” he says, “it kind of feels like I'm the guy who is the proverbial turd” in that pool. But as private equity invests massive sums in teams, he says, the work is even more necessary—and that fans do care when misdeeds are revealed. On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

Good afternoon — August 10, 2026. Hosts Will Alimonos and Zach Bishop return for a wide-ranging episode of Little Column A, Little Column B, opening with the latest developments in the Kawhi Leonard/Aspiration saga. The pair break down Pablo Torre's new reporting, including another alleged no-show deal, connections between the Aspiration revelations and a scoreboard manufacturer linked to the Clippers, and what the growing scandal could mean for Kawhi, the Clippers and the NBA. They debate when the league will finally make a decision, what an appropriate punishment would look like, who actually gets hurt by potential penalties, and whether the story will ultimately result in meaningful consequences. Then it's officially football season. Will and Zach begin their NFL division previews with the NFC North, evaluating the Lions, Bears, Packers and Vikings. They look at strength of schedule, defensive concerns, injuries and each team's path to winning the division. The conversation also turns to fantasy football, including concerns about Justin Jefferson's value and potential draft targets across the division. The AFC North is next, with Baltimore setting the standard and Cincinnati remaining an intriguing challenger despite questions about its defense. Will and Zach debate Lamar Jackson versus Derrick Henry from a fantasy perspective, Pittsburgh's uncertain direction, Cleveland's chaotic quarterback situation and which teams could surprise or disappoint. They finish the division with their favorite fantasy targets, avoids and predictions. Rounding out the episode are lighter but memorable stories, including Doc Rivers' Hall of Fame induction and a discussion about coaching legacies; Akron football's wild season-ticket promotion that allows a fan to help script the team's opening offensive possession; and the University of Michigan experimenting with a first-semester pass/no-pass system for freshmen. Will and Zach mix NFL predictions, fantasy advice, NBA controversy and the usual collection of strange stories before looking ahead to next week's AFC and NFC East previews.
