With the NFL season set to kick off tomorrow, The Ringer editor-at-large Bryan Curtis joined Gerard to talk about his excitement and anticipation ahead of opening night, Tom Brady's standing in the game as a 45-year-old, Amazon's acquisition of the Thursday Night Football rights, Joe Buck and Troy Aikman's move to ESPN, the favourites to win the Super Bowl, and more.

On today's episode, Jason kicks things off by throwing verbal haymakers at Joel Embiid, James Harden, Doc Rivers and the Philadelphia 76ers following their season-ending loss to the Miami Heat. This is the second consecutive season where Embiid has come up very small in the final game of the season; the Embiid love affair has to end. Harden's disappointing play, on the other hand, is pretty much expected these days. He's never been good in big moments, so the fact that The Beard didn't score a point in the second half shouldn't come as much of a surprise. Not to be outdone, head coach Doc Rivers actually fabricated a narrative about unrealistic expectations in Philadelphia. Seriously. These three really deserve each other. Moving over to the Western Conference, Luka Doncic added to his legend with yet another virtuoso performance in an elimination game. Luka has already established himself as arguably the best player in the NBA, the only question now becomes: Can he finish the job in Game 7? Later, The Ringer editor-at-large Bryan Curtis swings by to discuss how the internet and social media has fundamentally changed the way we consume news, athletes like Kyrie Irving using social media instead of new media to get their messages out, NBA Playoffs ratings and the idea that basketball fans have LeBron James ‘fatigue', how sports journalism has evolved into public relations in certain aspects, and much more!
