Michael Angelo Zervos is a Guinness World Record holder — he visited all 195 UN-recognized countries in 499 days. Along the way he interviewed people in every country about the happiest moment of their life. That project became a book, published by Penguin Random House, out February 23rd. We talked about: how the record works and what actually counts as "visiting" a country; a year and a half of planning vs. the Brazilian who claimed he did it by accident; getting jailed overnight in Liberia for taking a photo of a building; being deported from Nicaragua because they thought he was a journalist; how he got into North Korea during a two-week window that's since closed permanently; what North Korea is actually like (his answer: Plato's allegory of the cave, in real life); Cuba on the ground vs. what the left says about it; traveling through Ukraine, Palestine, Syria, and Sudan; asking people about happiness in active conflict zones; and what his grandfather being forced to fight for communist guerrillas in the Greek Civil War has to do with any of it.

Big Shot Bob is back and he's got thoughts on everything — Kevin Durant's mounting reputation problem, a boxing night gone sideways, and the fight stories you didn't know you needed to hear. This week on Shoot Around, Rob Jenners, Brandon Harper, and NBA legend Robert Horry break down the Ronda Rousey vs. Gina Carano Netflix disaster (17 seconds, folks), revisit the Mayweather-Pacquiao letdown, and get into whether KD is officially more trouble than he's worth — Colin Cowherd's "boat analogy" sets off a whole debate. Then it's athletes who threw it all away (Latrell Sprewell and Dennis Rodman get called out), Peyton Manning's diabolical trash talk strategy, and some genuinely unhinged public fight stories to close things out. Plus: Horry on the worst smells he's ever encountered, Edwin Diaz and the cockfighting controversy, and Robert Horry quietly admitting he jumped on someone's bad knee and then stepped aside while they ran into a backboard. Just another week.
The crew is back for another packed episode of Sports Fellowship with Fox and Frank as Dan Fox, Frank Knight, Alan “Action” Jackson, Tyler, and Rich Vassallo break down a wild week across the sports world. The guys dive into the Yankees' recent struggles, the Mets continuing to disappoint despite a massive payroll, and whether teams like the Braves are already running away with their divisions before summer even arrives. There's also a spirited debate about Pete Alonso, Bo Bichette, the Phillies' inconsistency, and whether the Mets still have any realistic playoff hopes left.The NBA playoff conversation gets heated as the crew discusses the Knicks' surprising playoff run, Joel Embiid's frustrations, the weakness of the Eastern Conference, and why Oklahoma City may be the biggest buzzsaw in basketball right now. They also revisit NBA history with discussions about Dennis Rodman, the Malice at the Palace, Karl-Anthony Towns finally stepping up, and whether the Knicks truly have a shot at reaching the Finals.The NHL playoffs bring more strong opinions as Carolina dominates the East, Vegas continues to stir controversy, and John Tortorella once again finds himself at the center of headlines after refusing postgame media obligations. The crew debates playoff formats, coaching personalities, and why some teams always seem to get stuck in tougher conferences than others.The show closes with reactions to the newly released NFL schedule, including predictions for the Giants, Cowboys, Raiders, and the NFC East as a whole. The guys discuss which teams were helped or hurt by the schedule makers, whether the Eagles are due for regression, and why the Raiders may be headed for another long season. Along the way, there's plenty of classic banter, random tangents, church encouragement, and another hilarious email segment at Dan's expense.Special Thanks to:Fox Brothers Alarms - https://foxbrothersalarms.comFirst Baptist Church of Phillipsburg NJ - http://www.fbcpburg.org/
The guys kicked off the hour with birthdays for Darius Rucker and Dennis Rodman - with a funny story about Sedano's viral moment with him. They pivot to the big story: Dave McMenamin's ESPN piece on LeBron feeling disrespected by the Lakers organization. Kap honed in on the key anecdote from Dave's piece - the night LeBron broke the all-time wins record, Rob Pelinka gave the game ball to JJ Redick for his 100th coaching win instead, leaving LeBron feeling taken for granted. Brian Windhorst joins the guys live and said both sides are waiting for the other to move first - the Lakers want LeBron to come back on a team-friendly deal, LeBron wants to hear a real offer that shows they actually want him, and right now nobody's blinking.

Cedric Maxwell sits down with Rick Mahorn for a raw old-school NBA conversation. Mahorn breaks down how the Bad Boy Pistons defended Michael Jordan, why playoff basketball is still about physicality, how he would guard Joel Embiid, Victor Wembanyama, Giannis, Nikola Jokic and Karl-Anthony Towns, plus stories about Dennis Rodman, Isaiah Thomas, Larry Bird, Robert Parish and the Celtics-Pistons rivalry. From the Jordan Rules to today's injury concerns, Maxwell and Mahorn compare the toughness of the 80s NBA with the modern game. In this episode, Cedric Maxwell is joined by NBA Champion and Detroit Pistons legend, Rick Mahorn. The two friends dive into the 2026 NBA Playoffs, giving their thoughts on the Celtics-76ers and Magic-Pistons series. Then they reminisce about their careers and the evolution of the NBA since then. Cedric puts Rick on the spot, asking him how he'd fare against today's big men and about the Pistons' famous plan to stifle Michael Jordan. Rick also talks about his relationship with Isiah Thomas and Dennis Rodman and shares stories from the Bad Boy Pistons era. The Cedric Maxwell Podcast on CLNS is Powered by:
The crew attempts to navigate the "freaky territory" of Penelope's relationship, where her man is insisting that a former "play cousin" hookup becomes his official godmother for his confirmation. Between the holy drama, the squad roasts Dennis Rodman's ex-wife for pawning his legendary jerseys for a lowball price and debates the "Espírito Santos" plan to save Spirit Airlines with a logo of Jesus.

Bomani Jones is joined by Jason Goff for Time Machine Tuesday to look back at the legendary 1995-96 Chicago Bulls, Michael Jordan's return to dominance, and the team that went 72-10 on the way to an NBA championship. Bomani and Jason break down how Dennis Rodman changed the Bulls, why Jordan's 1996 season still feels mythical, Scottie Pippen's place in the dynasty, and what it felt like to live through that era in Chicago. They also get into the cultural moment around the Bulls, Space Jam, and why that team became bigger than basketball. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this special WrestleMania edition of Kliq This, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver check in to break down the sheer madness of wrestling's biggest weekend. While the world watches the spectacle on screen, Nash provides a veteran's perspective on the logistical chaos happening backstage and in the rafters. From the massive production hurdles to the reality of talent relations during a stadium show, this episode captures the high-stakes energy of a weekend where every minute is accounted for—sometimes literally. The centerpiece of the episode is a deep dive into the WWE Hall of Fame, where Nash recounts the "One Minute Rule" that governed his induction speech for Dennis Rodman. He pulls back the curtain on the tight scripting and the physical presence of Vince McMahon at rehearsal, detailing a moment where the "Dream Maker" himself stepped in to keep the production moving. Nash reflects on how the "taboo" of mentioning Vince has evolved into a new era of transparency under the current regime. The conversation takes a legendary turn as Nash shares his personal interactions with the icons of the industry, including a candid conversation with John Cena regarding his retirement tour. Nash breaks down the psychology of the Cena character and the "smiling" farewell, while also touching on the emotional experience of seeing the next generation of the McMahon family growing up within the business. It's a rare look at the enduring personal bonds that persist long after the cameras stop rolling. Wrapping up the session, the duo tackles everything from the grueling "Road to WrestleMania" schedule to the current state of NXT and the global reach of the brand. Whether he's debating the merits of Will Ospreay, recounting his days as a bouncer at the Cheetah in Atlanta, or explaining why he's officially "rounding up" his age to 67, Kevin Nash remains the most unfiltered voice in the game. This is Kliq This at its most topical, recorded in the heart of the WrestleMania whirlwind.

On our political radar this week… Pam Bondi joins Meat Loaf, Joan Rivers, Dennis Rodman, Sinbad, Dionne Warwick, Andrew Dice Clay, Omarosa … and Kristi Noem: “You’re fired!” VIDEO: Bye Bye Bondi (A Tribute) Senator Elissa Slotkin – speaking in Iowa – confirms what we've been saying for weeks: she's open to running for President. Two more special elections this week, two more sharp turns to Democrats: –In Wisconsin, liberal candidate Chris Taylor cruised to an easy victory over her conservative opponent in the state Supreme Court race with 60 percent of the vote, expanding the liberal majority on the court to 5-2. – Georgia, Democrat Shawn Harris lost by about 12 percentage points in the race to replace Marjorie Taylor Green, but he shifted the district 25 points to the left. Trump won the district by 37 percentage points in 2024. A national Republican group said Monday it's dumping $45 million into Michigan's open U.S. Senate race as an initial investment to help presumptive GOP nominee Mike Rogers flip the seat from Democratic control. The operative word is “initial”, meaning even more millions will flow into Michigan Republican sources. Trump is calling on Congress to give Pete Hegseth a staggering $1.7-trillion dollars over the next year. To fund it, Trump wants to cut virtually every other federal program including a 23% cut for NASA even as four astronauts take a first-ever-for-humans trip to the far side of the moon. One item calling for a major increase: White House repairs and renovations. Trump wants to spend 377-million dollars on fixing up the place, an 860 percent increase. Two more major league grifts from Trump: –The Justice Department has settled for roughly $1.2 million a lawsuit from Michael Flynn, the former national security adviser to President Donald Trump who pleaded guilty during Trump’s first term to lying to the FBI about his conversations with a top Russian diplomat and was later pardoned. Bottom line: if Trump likes you, taxpayers will pay you to lie to the FBI. –Semafor is reporting that Trump has directed the State Department to send $1.25 billion – without any Congressional appropriation or authorization to do so – to Trump's Board of Peace. The transfer effectively places the money directly in the hands of Trump, the board’s chairman. Trump and the board’s executives control funding for the Board of Peace — and Trump selects the executive board — and the president will continue to do so even after his second term ends in January 2029. In the race for Governor – John James is ducking still another candidate debate, this one set for the end of the month in vote-rich Oakland County. James has seen his once overwhelming lead for the GOP gubernatorial nomination shrink as septuagenarian Perry “Quality Guru” Johnson dumps millions into an effort to spend his way into office. Governor Whitmer says she will not endorse a candidate for U.S. Senate or Secretary of State. She earlier ruled out an endorsement in the race for the gubernatorial nomination. It's pretty easy for Democrats to be critics of Donald Trump, his policies and his corruption. More important to most people is answering the question: “so what are you going to do?” State House Democrats have answered, releasing their Vision for a Brighter Michigan. We're joined by House Democratic Leader Ranjeev Puri who led development of the plan. The son of Indian immigrants, Leader Puri made history in 2020 as the first person of color to represent his Canton Michigan district and the first Sikh-American in Michigan's legislative history. In his second term he served as majority whip, making him the highest-ranking South Asian in state government nationwide. Remarkably, he is one of two first-generation Indian-Americans in top legislative leadership: Senate Majority Floor Leader Sam Singh is also the son of Indian immigrants. Leader Puri's leadership has earned national recognition, including being named to the Council of State Government's “20 Under 40” Leadership Award Class of 2023 and receiving the MIRS Legislator of the Year Award in 2024.His leadership has earned national recognition, including being named to the Council of State Government's “20 Under 40” Leadership Award Class of 2023 and receiving the MIRS Legislator of the Year Award in 2024. (Jeff) First question! A personal note from producer/co-host Walt Sorg April is Michigan Donate Life month, a recognition of the state's organ donation program. Four years ago I was the recipient of a donated kidney. It changed my life … and probably saved my life. A part of you can live on after death through the simple act of saying “yes, I want to pay it forward.” And you can go a step beyond through a living donation of a kidney, or portion of your liver. My donor was my brother and he's just as healthy today with one kidney as he was before the surgery. The Michigan Organ Donor Registry is a confidential database that documents an individual's decision to become an organ, tissue and eye donor. Joining the registry is simple and secure. Michiganders can add their name online at Michigan.gov/OrganDonation, at any Secretary of State branch office or self-service station, or on your state income tax return. And while you're at it … the donation of blood through the Red Cross is an easy way to save another life. Last spring, donated blood saved my life. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

On this LIVE edition of 83 Weeks, Eric Bischoff and Conrad Thompson turn back the clock to one of the most pivotal nights in wrestling history the 25th anniversary of the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro. Joining the show is author Guy Evans, who brings deep research and insight into the financial realities and corporate decisions that led to WCW's demise. Eric and Guy break down why Eric's own deal to purchase WCW ultimately fell apart, and how the business side of wrestling sealed the company's fate. But that's just the beginning. Eric shares his take on how he would have booked the final Nitro, revealing creative ideas and missed opportunities from that historic night. He also reflects on the crossover appeal of the nWo, including why Dennis Rodman's involvement was such a major highlight, and drops a surprising take on why Shawn Michaels would have never fit into the faction. Plus, Eric dives into some fun "what if" scenarios, including how Ted DiBiase Jr. could have added a fascinating wrinkle to the Rhodes vs. Orton WrestleMania storyline. And if you've ever wondered what Eric considers the true "Big Four" of WCW pay-per-views, he's laying it out definitively.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber dive into the real expectation for St. John's as March Madness begins and ask the question New York fans are wrestling with: is a Sweet 16 run enough, or does this team need to do more? With Rick Pitino, a brutal bracket, and the weight of real postseason expectations, the conversation centers on what success actually looks like now that the Johnnies are no longer just a feel-good story. They also get into the drama and beauty of the NCAA tournament, debate whether the format should ever change, react to the cultural impact of Chuck Norris, and mix in sharp takes on the Yankees, Dennis Rodman's wrestling Hall of Fame case, and the constant tension between hype, legacy, and reality in New York sports.
Remembering Chuck Norris, Tourney Format Ideas & Rodman Debate Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber shift gears to reflect on the larger-than-life legacy of Chuck Norris, looking at how he became a true cultural icon through action films, television, and the viral “Chuck Norris facts” that defined an era of internet humor. The conversation blends humor with appreciation as they revisit why Norris resonated across generations and remained relevant far beyond his on-screen career. They also dive into a spirited debate over potential changes to the NCAA Tournament format, including a surprising player-driven idea that sparks strong reactions about preserving the one-and-done magic of March. Plus, the guys react to Dennis Rodman's WWE Hall of Fame induction and what it says about celebrity crossover in wrestling, while mixing in fan calls and broader thoughts on how sports traditions evolve.
