Although we start with a tiny bit about Boomer's golf outing, Jerry presents Ben Stiller talking about Pat McAfee, and how he was ‘not familiar with his game'. The Thunder beat the T-Wolves to advance to the NBA Finals.
Juan Soto's recent struggles with the Mets, including an 0-for-4 performance and boos from fans, have drawn concern, with David Ortiz defending him and questions arising about his unusual demeanor and lack of "flare." While Mets manager Carlos Mendoza vaguely referenced Soto's "lower half" being in a good position. In other sports news, the Thunder advanced to the NBA Finals after defeating the T-Wolves, and the Yankees swept the Angels with a 1-0 shutout, extending their winning streak. The Mets, however, lost to the White Sox. The discussion also touched upon Ben Stiller's unfamiliarity with Pat McAfee's "game" and Spike Eskin's frustration with the "tough guy act" in baseball retaliation. Finally, a segment covered Stefon Diggs being seen on a yacht with a "pink powder" believed to be a drug called "Tusi" reportedly involved, raising concerns about the Patriots' potential reaction.

Pat McAfee had the microphone in Indy last night and tormented celebrity Knicks fans
Frustrated Knicks fans called in after the team's loss in Indiana, with one expressing dislike for Karl-Anthony Towns and another questioning why the series is being discussed as if it's over. Jerry's update included Pat McAfee yelling at celebrities and Brandon Tierney's social media comment that the Pacers are simply "better." In baseball, the Yankees beat the Angels with homers from Rice and Peraza, while the Mets scored four in the first against the White Sox. Ohtani already has 20 home runs. Terry Bradshaw called the idea of Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers "a joke," suggesting he "chew on bark" in California. Tyreek Hill bluntly dismissed Travis Hunter as "gonna be ass." The "Moment of The Day" featured Boomer not paying attention during an update. The hour concluded with the sentiment that Tyrese Haliburton's dominant performance sealed the Knicks' fate, noting the only playoff game where the Knicks felt in control was Game 6 against Boston.
Hour 1 The Knicks are down 3-1, leading Gio to declare the series over, though Boomer holds out until the Pacers win their fourth. Boomer noted the Knicks' best defensive players "got torched," highlighting the team's inconsistency. The Knicks face elimination at home, a place they haven't played well. In other sports, the Yankees beat the Angels, and the Mets defeated the White Sox. Oddly, Brandon Nimmo made a baserunning blunder. Off the field, Terry Bradshaw weighed in on Aaron Rodgers, and Tyreek Hill had a blunt take on Travis Hunter. The hour ended with Knicks fans calling in, one suggesting Thibs be fired. Hour 2 Larry Johnson showed no nostalgia for his famous 4-point ball when asked. The conversation shifted back to the Knicks' lack of identity and inconsistent play. Jerry's update included sound bites from Thibs and players, along with highlights from the Mets' win (Alonso homer) and the Yankees' victory (Rice homer, Rodon's strong outing). Boomer seems to believe the AL East race is "over." Terry Bradshaw reiterated his stance against Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers for one year. The segment concluded with a humorous anecdote about Maggie Gray mistaking an impersonator for Sammy Hagar, and a caller suggesting the Knicks bring back Charles Oakley to change their "mojo." Hour 3 The Knicks' 3-1 series deficit sparked debate, with Gio suggesting the NBA "fix" games and callers decrying biased officiating, despite Tyrese Haliburton's stellar performance. Some fans, however, see the loss as part of the Knicks' natural progression. Jerry predicted a Knicks win in the next game, while the Pacers coach discussed the playoff back-and-forth. In baseball, the Mets defeated the White Sox, marked by a confusing baserunning play from Brandon Nimmo, and the Yankees held off the Angels despite a shaky ninth inning from Devin Williams. The hour concluded with a discussion about dog dancing. Hour 4 Frustrated Knicks fans called in after the team's loss in Indiana, with one expressing dislike for Karl-Anthony Towns and another questioning why the series is being discussed as if it's over. Jerry's update included Pat McAfee yelling at celebrities and Brandon Tierney's social media comment that the Pacers are simply "better." In baseball, the Yankees beat the Angels with homers from Rice and Peraza, while the Mets scored four in the first against the White Sox. Ohtani already has 20 home runs. Terry Bradshaw called the idea of Aaron Rodgers joining the Steelers "a joke," suggesting he "chew on bark" in California. Tyreek Hill bluntly dismissed Travis Hunter as "gonna be ass." The "Moment of The Day" featured Boomer not paying attention during an update. The hour concluded with the sentiment that Tyrese Haliburton's dominant performance sealed the Knicks' fate, noting the only playoff game where the Knicks felt in control was Game 6 against Boston.
Jerry starts with noted loudmouth Pat McAfee pumping up the crowd by talking about the NY celebrities. Jalen Brunson talked about the turnovers.
This weekend, the New York Times ran a piece titled Six Months Later, Democrats Are Still Searching for the Path Forward, and it was bleak. The lead quote came from Anat Shenker-Osorio, a favorite of this show, describing Democrats as sloths, snails, and most devastatingly, a deer in headlights. That last one feels accurate, especially when you look at the post-election breakdown from Catalist, a Democratic-aligned polling firm. We'll dive deeper into that next week with Michael Cohen, but the short version? The coalition looks grim.Democrats are losing ground, and it's not just because of Joe Biden or Kamala Harris. It's not just about the top of the ticket. It's structural. They don't have a message that resonates, and they don't have a coalition that can win. When you look at how the electorate has shifted since 2012 — through 2016, 2020, and now 2024 — the trend is clear. Wide swaths of the country keep moving right. This is not just a Trump story. This is a cultural shift.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.There are a few bright spots — like John Ossoff. The Atlanta suburbs are still trending blue, which gives him a strong base going into his re-election. But one candidate's survival isn't a strategy. The bigger problem is Democrats losing voters they used to count on, and then reacting like anthropologists studying a foreign culture. Take the new $20 million project codenamed SAM — “Speaking with American Men.” The plan is to understand what language appeals to young men online and then buy ad space in video games. I'm not kidding.I'll save you the $20 million. Want to understand American men? Go to a sports bar at lunch. Talk to the bartender. Watch what's on TV. It's going to be Capitals games, Commanders games, maybe Nationals if they're hot. Ask what name the bartender uses — Commanders or Redskins — and pay attention. That's a signal. Look around. You'll see a guy without sleeves. His name is Pat McAfee. He parlayed a Barstool podcast into a national show that's shaping how a huge swath of American men consume sports and culture.McAfee is the demographic. Not the man, but the space he occupies. You don't need to book him — in fact, don't. But understand what kind of guests are on his show. What they talk about. What they joke about. The cultural signals they send. Most aren't overtly political, but they skew conservative. They care about sports, performance, and authenticity. They aren't trying to be progressive heroes. They're just being themselves — and Democrats don't know how to speak to that.The real issue is that Democrats think everything is messaging. They believe their phrasing is so perfect, so tested, that if people just heard it the right way, it would work. But voters aren't lab rats. They're not waiting for the next DNC ad drop to form their opinions. They're watching comedians joke about trans athletes. They're laughing at jokes about liberal overreach. They're reacting to a world where Democrats are often cast as anti-fun and anti-speech. And white men — yes, still the overwhelming majority of this country — don't respond well to being told they're the problem from the start.So how do you reach them? Start by understanding who's already reaching them. Then think about what message would land quietly on a show like Pat McAfee's. Not what would stand out. What would blend in. That's the Rosetta Stone. Speak in a way that doesn't sound like a speech. Get out of your own head. Stop trying to convert — start trying to connect.And meanwhile, while Democrats strategize over lunch buffets at luxury hotels, Trump is climbing in the polls. The idea that he's getting “less popular” is just wrong. His lowest point was late April. Since then, his numbers have rebounded. His approval is hovering around 47 percent. That's good — especially for someone who normally lives in the 30s. Right now, more Americans think the country is on the right track under Trump than they ever did under Biden. The direction-of-the-country numbers are strong. For Trump. That's insane. And Democrats ignore it at their peril.They keep underestimating him. They keep assuming the messaging is enough. But Trump is talking about tax cuts for tips and overtime. Democrats are voting for them too — the Senate just passed a version 100 to 0. They know it polls well. They just don't want to say it out loud unless it's their version.Politics is about trust. And the Biden White House broke it. When it's he said, she said, voters side with the one who hasn't lied to them. That's Trump right now. And if Democrats want to change that, they've got to start being honest — not just with the public, but with themselves.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:44 - Democrat Rebranding Struggles00:26:16 - Update00:27:34 - US-EU Trade Talks and Consumer Confidence00:31:32 - Senate Republican Fiscal Concerns00:34:34 - Covid Vaccine Recommendations Pulled00:37:52 - Interview with Juliegrace Brufke01:04:15 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Backlash is often regarded as the come-down show for WWE. There's plenty to criticize; why is Gunther taking on Pat McAfee on his road back to the World Heavyweight Championship picture?
