50 episodes! Imagine that! We are back again with our dear friend Agostino Simonetta in the second part of our two part interview. This time with Fernando taking the lead for a deeper one-on-one since Shams had to go and spread some democracy across the galaxy (as he should). Fernando and Ago is immediately getting in to familiar territory with conference season, industry rituals, and the strange push and pull of showing up (or not). From there, it drifts into bigger questions about the usual suspects as growth and consolidation, but more importantly - what really happened during the acquisition rush of the past few years? Expect perspective shaped by experience, a few (unexpected?) analogies, and the kind of side paths that make us rethink how stable the industry really is. Oh yeah, also expect banter. Of course.

Giannis is still a Buck! Shams was wrong! Shams was wrong! Bucks hang on to Giannis, then Giannis hits up his Twitter and Instagram accounts with a few fun posts. Bucks do swing one smaller deal, back on the floor tonight going for 3 in a row. It's Super Bowl weekend, and that means one thing: PROP BETS! Pats/Seahawks on Sunday. Gutey finally talked to the media on Wednesday and said a whole lot of nothing for 40 minutes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 3 kicks off with the NBA deadline chaos and the biggest headline hanging over everything: Giannis. The show then pivots to the Tom Brady controversy after he says he has “no dog in the fight” for the Super Bowl. Patriots fans are annoyed, former teammates are chirping, and an active player goes as far as saying he's “disgusted,” turning Brady into a weird New England villain story. The guys debate whether Brady is detached, protecting broadcast credibility, or just wired to compete at whatever he's doing next. Then the real breaking news hits. Shams reports the Bucks have told teams they are keeping Giannis through the deadline. Evan frames it as the best possible outcome for Knicks fans because it keeps a rival from getting stronger now, while leaving the door open for summer chaos. They also talk through the strange ripple effects: Milwaukee possibly shutting him down, Shams' careful wording, and how Giannis could still weaponize his leverage later by scaring off teams with the “I'm not re-signing there” card. The segment ends with the bigger theme: the East feels wide open, the Celtics are compromised without a fully healthy Tatum, and this is exactly the kind of season where the Knicks get a real shot to “finish the story” before the summer superstar carousel starts again.

Hour 3 opens with Giannis dominating the NBA deadline conversation, plus the fallout from Tom Brady's “no dog in the fight” comments as even active players pile on. Then the real deadline bomb drops: Shams reports the Bucks are keeping Giannis, which the show calls the best possible news for Knicks fans and a major setup for a wild summer. Minutes later, the Knicks strike anyway, landing Jose Alvarado in a low-risk move built for playoff minutes. The guys break down why he's a perfect pest defender, why it helps if Deuce McBride's injury lingers, and how “Jose Jose” might return at the Garden. It also sparks a classic New York argument: Knicks title odds vs Islanders “sport nature” logic, complete with soapbox energy and lap talk. The hour wraps with Jets frustration returning fast as the conversation shifts to roster building, reputation, and why the Knicks are the blueprint for fixing a broken franchise. Leon Rose gets his flowers for deadline hits, while the Jets still feel stuck in the cycle.

Friends! It's 2026 and we're back! In this first part of a two-episode conversation, Shams and Fernando sit down with none other than industry veteran Agostino Simonetta. They talk through a career in games that was shaped less by master plans and more by circumstance, timing, and a fair number of hard calls. From early production work to platform-side roles at PlayStation and Xbox, to what it actually feels like to try to push new ideas inside very large organizations. Along the way, they touch on the Italian game development scene, the realities of platform strategy, and why innovation inside big companies often comes with friction, compromises, and missed chances.

Taped live at Japan House LA on January 10, 2026. Matt chats with Lucius front women Jess Wolfe and Holly Lessig—and Dr. Ladan Shams, UCLA professor of psychology, bioengineering, and neuroscience, to explore the science behind the band's song “Ice Cream.” Starting from the lyric “time melts away like ice cream in the sun,” the conversation moves between metaphor, memory, and the fleeting nature of love, and into the brain's remarkable ability to blend sound, sight, taste, and touch into a single experience. From rubber hands to ventriloquists, pop art to perceptual pleasure, the episode reveals how our senses collaborate, compete, and sometimes fool us—while Lucius reflects on their own multisensory artistry, coordinated visuals, and the emotional power of metaphor in their music.
