The Hookup of the Week tells the story of an encounter that is both very hot and very wet, and leads to Judson teaching Brian a piece of sexual vocabulary. They are then joined by fashion designer and sometime Son to Judson's Daddy, Timothy Westbrook. After sharing behind-the-scenes secrets of his time on the 12th season of “Project Runway,” Timothy discusses his mission to design from a place without shame and how it inspires his very special collection, TL Brooke Bridal. He provides his unique perspective on rituals and ceremonies, and talks about how he works with clients of all gender expressions to create pieces that personify and celebrate their entire being. Timothy then reveals how he found his way to Dads and Daddies through a hookup story Judson shared on the pod three months ago, and dives deep into the fulfillment he finds in blindfolding himself during sex, his talent for being a good boy, how he protects himself when hooking up with strangers and his aspirations to a porn career.

Irish basketball hall of fame inductee Jerome Westbrooks joins Eoin Sheahan in studio to reflect on his extraordinary life, from starting basketball at 13 in Chicago, to becoming the first American player to sign for Killester.

Today we being you episode 340, with Tristan Roberson. This kid is killing the Texas scene and making waves and turning heads in Nashville. It won't be long until we're hearing this name spoken amongst the likes of Johnson, McCollum and Westbrook amongst others. We hope you enjoy.

This week on The Baseline NBA Podcast, we break down the highs and lows shaping the NBA right now — from major injuries impacting contenders to historic performances that continue to redefine greatness.First , as injuries take center stage around the league. Jalen Suggs suffers a Grade 1 MCL contusion and is out indefinitely, while Jonas Valančiūnas is sidelined with a right calf strain and will be re-evaluated in four weeks. Combined with Nikola Jokić's knee injury, the Nuggets' frontcourt takes a major hit, raising real questions about depth, durability, and timing as the season unfolds. Highs:- The 2025 NBA Christmas Day games delivered 15-year viewership highs, with over 47 million U.S. viewers, reinforcing the NBA's cultural relevance and dominance in marquee moments. - Russell Westbrook moves into 7th all-time in assists, passing Magic Johnson — a milestone that adds another chapter to his Hall of Fame résumé. We also celebrate basketball greatness at the highest level. - Giannis Antetokounmpo continues his historic run, recording his 158th career 30/10/5 game, passing Kareem Abdul-Jabbar for second all-time and closing in on Oscar Robertson.- LeBron James adds yet another legendary moment, posting 31 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists, becoming the oldest player ever to score 30+ and surpassing Kareem's mark for the most points by a 41-year-old. LeBron and Kareem now stand alone as the only players to score 25+ at age 41 — doing it at the exact same age, 41 years and 3 days.Lows:- We discuss Draymond Green's ejection following a controversial non–three-second call and what it says about composure, officiating, and reputation- Plus, Jaylen Brown's frustration after missing out on Eastern Conference Player of the Month sparks a deeper conversation on player recognition, narrative vs. metrics, and how awards are truly evaluated. Then we shift to the highs, where the league continues to shine on the biggest stages.- From injuries and controversy to records, ratings, and royalty, this episode captures the full spectrum of the NBA — where the highs are historic and the lows are unavoidable. 

The NBA keeps talking about “two-way players” like it's a bonus skill instead of the bare minimum. That framing is broken - and this episode dismantles it. Jaylen Brown calls himself the best two-way player in the league. When you actually examine defense, availability, leadership, and impact, the claim holds up - and exposes why the MVP conversation is flawed. While other stars conserve energy, avoid defensive matchups, or miss games, Brown guards the best player, carries a short-handed Celtics roster, and still produces elite offense. This episode breaks down why defense and rebounding are inseparable, why availability is the real separator in awards races, and why the 65-game rule exists for a reason. Jokic's injury, Embiid's return, the Sixers' ceiling, Bucks trade realities, Westbrook's historical achievements, and the current Eastern and Western Conference playoff landscapes all get addressed through one lens: value is not reputation - it's impact. No sentimentality. No narrative protection. Just how winning actually works. 

On this episode of The Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) and Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir), the guys start the show by discussing new potential spots in the NBA record books this upcoming year. Where will Kevin Durant, James Harden and Russell Westbrook find themselves at the end of the year? Next, the Clippers are surging, winning 6 in a row to get out of the basement in the West. How Kawhi Leonard has led the way and the other changes the Clips have made to get back in it. Then, a sigh of relief for the Nuggets as Nikola Jokic avoids major injury and will miss a month due to a knee hyperextension. If the Nuggets need to make a move, given the injury to Jonas Valančiūnas as well. In Who's Ballin Who's Fallin, great ratings for Christmas, LeBron turns 41, early All-Star returns & a small injury for Wemby. Finally, another round of Immaculate Grid.

The latest episode of Running It Back dives into the "unceremonious" exit of Chris Paul from the Los Angeles Clippers, a move Mike Palmer views as a masterstroke in locker room management. Mike and Tarlin Ray are joined for the first time by Isaac Tellechea, the newest addition to the Running It Back team who will be helping behind the scenes and joining the occasional taping. Isaac jumps right into the fire, offering a Miami Heat fan's perspective on what real veteran leadership looks like versus the "Too Alpha" style that might be holding CP3 back in his twilight years. The trio debates whether Chris Paul's legendary high expectations have crossed the line into toxicity. Tarlin, the resident "Chris Paul Apologist," argues that a 6-foot point guard who controls the game with a legendary IQ deserves a sunset tour. Mike, however, isn't buying the "Point God" narrative without a championship ring to back it up, suggesting that CP3's rigid style makes him less of a leader and more of a "ball-dominant" force that can eventually alienate a roster. The conversation covers the aging Clippers roster and the friction caused when Paul reportedly tried to switch defensive assignments for Kawhi Leonard, which legendary coach Jeff Van Gundy noted was outside Paul's latitude. Isaac compares Paul's current stage to Udonis Haslem, questioning why CP3 hasn't transitioned into a "Yoda-like" player-coach role that elevates teammates without the alpha friction. The guys also engage in a lightning round ranking Paul against the likes of Isiah Thomas, Jason Kidd, and John Stockton, while wondering if there's a graceful ending left for him—perhaps babysitting Bronny on the Lakers.

NBA GM Scott Perry joins the Hoop Genius podcast for a rare, unfiltered deep dive into what it actually takes to build a winning NBA franchise - and why fans consistently underestimate how hard the job really is. Perry takes listeners inside the Sacramento Kings organisation, breaking down the realities of modern roster construction under the new CBA, the impact of the first and second apron, and why team-building today is fundamentally different from even a decade ago. He explains why patience, internal development, and alignment between ownership, front office, and coaching staff matter more than splashy moves or unrealistic timelines. The conversation covers Perry's transition from media back into the GM chair, how stepping away gave him a league-wide perspective, and what that taught him about trends shaping the NBA's future - from the return of size and two-big lineups to the growing importance of multiple ball-handlers and half-court execution in clutch moments. Perry also gives candid insight into: Building culture versus chasing optics Why the draft remains the most sustainable competitive advantage Developing young players in a results-obsessed league The real value of veterans like Russell Westbrook in establishing standards How front offices actually think about timelines, expectations, and pressure from fans This episode strips away fan myths, social-media narratives, and NBA 2K logic — replacing them with the grounded reality of how winning franchises are built, maintained, and protected over time. If you want to understand the NBA beyond box scores and trade machines, this is a masterclass straight from an active NBA general manager.
