Send a textIn this episode of The Daily Energizer, Spencer Jones invites you to set your focus on having a stellar weekend. He explores how a perfect weekend looks different for everyone and can change depending on your week, mindset, or season of life. Spencer encourages you to define what joy, relaxation, and fulfillment mean for you and embrace a weekend that recharges and inspires you.
A jam-packed hour with travel chaos, brutal commutes, and a check-in on the crew (including Connor Green and the latest “Loogie” tales). Then the sports hits hard: Giancarlo Stanton admits his elbow pain is so bad he “can't open a bag of chips,” sparking a real Yankees roster conversation around rest, urgency, and what it means for Jason Dominguez and Spencer Jones. From there, it's full Jets mode at the combine after a headline trade: Jermaine Johnson is shipped out as the Jets bring in massive nose tackle T'Vondre Sweat, with plenty of debate on what it says about Aaron Glenn's defensive blueprint and what it means for the No. 2 pick. The QB carousel gets messy too, with Andy Dalton as a potential “competency” option, plus the usual Kirk Cousins and Derek Carr arguments, and even some Tanner McKee trade talk. To wrap it up, St. John's lays an egg vs. UConn and the guys argue whether it's an anomaly or a warning sign for March, with a quick spin through other big topics like ABS and CC Sabathia getting his number retired.
It starts in the Bronx with a sentence you never want to hear about your DH: Giancarlo Stanton says his elbow pain is so bad he “can't open a bag of chips,” yet he's still talking about a full season. The guys react to Stanton's “mentally tough” framing, Aaron Boone's comments, and the bigger question Yankees fans can't shake: if this is what they're telling us, what aren't they telling us? From there, the Yankees' roster dominoes come into focus. Randal Grichuk arrives, the Domínguez vs. Spencer Jones conversation heats up, and the debate turns to a practical plan: should the Yankees slow-play Stanton early, keep him out of cold weather, and treat him like an October investment while the kids get real runway? Then the hour swings to football. The Jets make a major defensive statement by flipping Jermaine Johnson for massive nose tackle T'Vondre Sweat, signaling a scheme shift and a clear vision for Aaron Glenn's defense. Calls pour in on what it means for the draft, the front seven, and whether the Jets should build an elite defense now and attack the quarterback position later. And yes, we hit baseball's ABS strike zone chaos too, plus a Giants caller sparks the latest debate: is Jaxson Dart's durability a real concern, or is New York just traumatized by the “availability” conversation at quarterback?
Just weeks after a clean bill of health, Giancarlo Stanton's shocking admission about his elbow pain has Yankees fans on edge. If he “can't open a bag of chips,” how can he swing a bat for a full season? Evan and Tiki react to Stanton's revealing quotes, Aaron Boone's defense of his toughness, and what this really means for the Yankees' lineup plans. Plus, the Yankees quietly add veteran Randal Grichuk to the mix. Is it simple bench depth, or a sign the team is bracing for Stanton to miss significant time? The conversation expands to Jason Domínguez, Spencer Jones, and whether this injury could fast-track the youth movement in the Bronx. Is Stanton being heroic… or is this a warning sign the Yankees can't ignore?

0:00 - The only move the Nuggets made yesterday was to trade Hunter Tyson, essentially for a salary dump and an open roster spot. They also converted Spencer Jones' two-way contract to a regular contract to keep him here. So they can add one more player and that's it. What need should they try to fill?The NFL Honors Awards were last night, and the Broncos didn't win anything. We thought Sean Payton MIGHT have a shot at Coach of the Year, but Mike Vrabel taking the Patriots to the Super Bowl in his first season was tough to beat. Also, Matt Stafford got MVP...by ONE vote. ONE single vote. Someone cast their vote for Justin Herbert and he's getting killed online for it.22:36 - We used to love him, and now...we're officially done with him. The Greek Freak needs to shut his trap. He's approaching being on The List.34:11 - It's hard to believe Sam Darnold's turnaround. He was left for dead in New York, left for dead in Carolina, revived his career with the Vikings who still cut him, and now he's in the Super Bowl in his first year with Seattle. Unbelievable. Meanwhile, look at the Vikings right now. They're in freefall. Just listen to what Justin Jefferson had to say (or didn't say) about his QB.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil continue to react to the Nuggets and Knicks double overtime thriller from last night. Zach explains how Christian Braun needs to step up with Peyton Watson going down with a hamstring injury. Should the Nuggets have held Jokic and Braun to the minutes restriction they originally planned for both during their returns to the lineup? We pivot to the Broncos as multiple players and coaches are up for NFL awards including: Nik Bonitto, Vance Joseph and Garrett Bolles. Who will be taking home awards tonight at the NFL honors? Today's "Three Count" includes debating if there were any snubs from the Broncos in the NFL awards and the Nuggets avoiding the luxury tax by trading away Hunter Tyson and giving Spencer Jones a full NBA contract. How badly did the Avalanche need the Olympic break after a tough stretch of hockey leading into the break? Will the Avs come back refreshed and playing with energy?
0:00 - The Avalanche beat the Sharks last night and headed into the break on a high note! Meanwhile, the Nuggets lost to the Knicks in 2OT at the Garden. Peyton Watson tweaked his hamstring (still being evaluated), and Spencer Jones left with a concussion. Plus, Jokic looked like he was limping at some point. My goodness. The double diparoo giveth. And the double diparoo taketh away.16:20 - Vic's at Radio Row in San Francisco for the Super Bowl. And yet, he's having trouble getting excited about the matchup. There's no buzz around it, or at least that's how it seems. Are we crazy? Does anyone else feel this way?32:02 - Vic caught up with Ryan Leaf yesterday. He asked him about Bo Nix's success and how his season came to an unfortunate screeching hault.

In this hour, the guys dive into the latest controversies surrounding New York sports and the NFL offseason. The Yankees & Trent Grisham Saga The show opens with a reaction to Brian Cashman's recent interview, where he doubled down on the Trent Grisham trade and contract. The Debate: Cashman calls the $22 million deal a "steal" in the current market, while the hosts debate if Grisham is merely an expensive insurance policy that blocks younger talent like Jasson Dominguez and Spencer Jones. The Roster Impact: Is Grisham's presence stunting the development of "The Martian," or do the Yankees need veteran depth for a World Series run? Giants Ownership & The Epstein Files The conversation shifts to the reports regarding Giants co-owner Steve Tisch and leaked emails connecting him to Jeffrey Epstein. NFL Discipline: A discussion on whether the league will punish Tisch similarly to how they handled other owner controversies, or if the lack of criminal charges protects him. Future Ownership: Speculation arises on the Koch family's minority stake and if they are positioning themselves to take over a local team in the future. Super Bowl Storylines & The "Boring" Build-Up With the Super Bowl approaching, the hosts struggle to find compelling narratives, leading to a "Top 5 Storylines" list that includes: Sam Darnold's "Middle Finger Tour." Fears of a new Patriots Dynasty. The Seahawks/Patriots revenge narrative. Stefon Diggs winning a ring before Josh Allen. 49ers practice facility conspiracy theories. The Kwesi Adofo-Mensah Firing & Paternity Leave A heated discussion regarding the firing of Vikings GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and reports citing his two-week paternity leave during training camp as a point of contention. The Contrast: The hosts compare this to Bills coach Joe Brady's comment about missing his child's birth for a game, ultimately concluding that both approaches are personal choices ("to each his own") rather than fireable offenses. NBA & MLB Notes KAT vs. The Critics: A deep dive into Karl-Anthony Towns' statistics. While he is averaging 19 points and 11 rebounds, the hosts note this is his lowest career field goal percentage and effective field goal percentage, sparking a debate on his All-Star validity vs. Pascal Siakam. Reds Sign Suarez: Reaction to Eugenio Suarez signing with Cincinnati and what that means for the Mets' reliance on Mark Vientos.
The focus shifts straight to the Yankees as Brian Cashman publicly defends the decision to bring back Trent Grisham on a one year, $22 million deal and even frames it as a bargain. The crew breaks down why that explanation is driving fans crazy and whether the logic actually holds up in today's market. The discussion turns into a deeper argument about how the Yankees build rosters, the balance between spending and flexibility, and whether veterans like Grisham are acting as smart insurance or actively blocking the development of younger players like Jasson Domínguez and Spencer Jones. Is this disciplined roster management or the same thinking that keeps the Yankees from fully committing to their future?

Not So Quiet On The Western Front! | A Battle Guide Production
In 1915 the German Army introduced the world to the power of the flamethrower - but by 1916 the Allies had caught up with their own weapons. As the war continued flame stopped being a novelty and instead became a system - specialist troops, evolving equipment and developing tactics. We delve into that story in this episode and ask whether the flame thrower was a weapon whose bark was worse than its bite?

Evan and Tiki react to Brian Cashman's media session and the line that set Yankee fans off: the idea the Yankees are not “running it back.” Is he right, just terrible at saying it, or both? The guys debate whether last year's trade deadline basically was the Yankees' offseason, what's still missing without a true Soto replacement, and how the team should handle Anthony Volpe's rehab and role when he returns. Then the calls roll in, from prospect trade debates and “go get a bat” arguments, to a Mets tangent on Eugenio Suárez vs. giving Mark Vientos one last runway. Hour wraps with Knicks trade chatter and Mikal Bridges' brutally honest “entitlement” quote as Giannis rumors hang in the background. Time Codes 00:00 — Cashman meets the media, Yankees fans immediately annoyed 01:18 — “Just say it's similar” vs Cashman over-explaining why they're different 02:23 — The blunt truth: “They added ONE player” and it feels like the same roster 04:41 — Bigger issue: 15 years, one World Series run, and no Soto replacement 05:15 — Tiki's counter: Cashman is right, just said it in the worst way 05:55 — The trade deadline as the real “offseason” and why that's actually unique 07:03 — AL East framing: Blue Jays, Red Sox, and why “track record” matters 10:40 — “Leave no doubt” offseason vs Yankees budgeting, Dodgers standards, and choices 16:24 — Volpe update: “110%” and “deploy properly” sounds like a role change 18:49 — Call: Yankee fan talks trades, Dominguez and Spencer Jones, and patience 24:30 — Call: Mets tangent, Kyle Tucker opt-out mechanics and the Suárez debate 26:12 — Mark Vientos “final stand” season and why a one-year vet could block him 28:05 — Call: Paul Skenes trade fantasy, prospect “forbidden fruit,” and control years 31:17 — The “pied-à-terre” detour and why it turns into a comedy bit 35:42 — Call: Yankees flexibility, then Knicks trade anxiety after a win 40:14 — Mikal Bridges' “entitlement” quote, being coachable, and trade-rumor pressure 43:16 — Giannis reality check: if it happens, Bridges is likely in the deal
Brian Cashman met the media and managed to do the one thing Yankee fans knew was coming but still weren't ready for. He pushed back on the idea that the Yankees are “running the same team back,” and in the process somehow made everyone even angrier. Evan and Tiki break down what Cashman meant versus how he said it, why Gerrit Cole's return is both obvious and not enough, and how the front office keeps leaning on last year's trade deadline as proof this team is different. The guys debate whether the Yankees actually improved, or just reframed the same roster with better PR, why the “growing pains” comment made no sense, and how losing Juan Soto still hangs over everything. Is Cashman technically right but emotionally tone deaf, or is this just another case of Yankees fans being sold the same story with new wording? Plus, a deeper look at roster flexibility, young players like Jason Dominguez and Spencer Jones, and why this franchise still refuses to leave “no doubt” heading into Opening Day. Featuring discussion of the New York Yankees, Brian Cashman, Gerrit Cole, Cody Bellinger, Anthony Volpe, and how this all stacks up against division rivals like the Toronto Blue Jays and Boston Red Sox.
Cody Bellinger is headed back to the Yankees on a five-year, $162.5 million deal with opt outs after year two and year three! This was always the best landing spot for his Fantasy value. Where does Bellinger rank among outfielders for this season? What's next for Jasson Dominguez and Spencer Jones?
