The Knicks just pulled off the largest comeback in NBA Finals history — down 29, on the road, against Wemby playing like Wemby — and Cannon, Cole, and Ethan break down how San Antonio gave it away and whether this is one of the greatest non-elimination Finals games ever. Brunson as the Thanos of fourth quarters, the death of home-court advantage, and where this series goes from here. Then Avina joins to get Cannon up to speed on the 2026 World Cup: the 48-team format, why the group stage might be a slog, the real Group of Death (France, Senegal, Norway, Iraq), and what it'll take for the USMNT to finally get past the Round of 16 on home soil.

Episode 8. Knicks are in the Finals for the first time since 1999, and it wasn't close. Cole, Ethan, and Cannon break down the sweep, make the case against giving Harden another dollar, and look ahead to what a healthy, rested New York team means for whoever comes out of the West. Then — Wemby's tired, the Thunder lead 3-2, and the flopping numbers are worse than you think.  Survivor 50 is in the books. We hand out the season awards — best blunder, best strategic move, funniest moment — and debate whether Aubrey deserved it or Jonathan got robbed.  Xavier, Bill, Cannon, and Michael close things out with a full breakdown of NBA expansion and what the league should actually do about it.

Game one of the Spurs-Thunder Western Conference Finals just happened, Michael and Cole join right after the buzzer to react to Wemby's performance, the Chet rivalry, and what a 62-win clash means historically. Then Kirby and McKay break down Aaron Rai's PGA Championship win — iron covers, two gloves, and all — and why golf has a rooting-for-strangers problem. We close with the roundtable: of the four teams playoff teams left, whose exit would sting the most?

Wemby gets tossed in a playoff game. The Jazz land the number two pick. The Pacers tank all year and walk away with nothing. Cannon and Cole break down the ejection, where Anthony Edwards fits in the top five conversation, and whether the Thunder are just built different. Then Cannon, Michael, and Bill get into the real question — is tanking a problem, or is everyone just playing the game they were given? Plus, the PGA Championship kicks off Thursday and Jordan Spieth is one major away from the Grand Slam.

The first round gave us a 3-1 comeback against the Celtics, the Pistons ending an 18-year drought, and the Wolves advancing without Ant. Now the real questions start. Cannon and a roundtable break down where Jalen Brown, Jalen Brunson, Donovan Mitchell, Devin Booker, and Jamal Murray actually stand — who can win a title, who's already peaked, and which of these guys has any shot at the top 30 conversation.

Eight days into the NBA playoffs and chaos is already here. Ant's hurt, Orlando is threatening an upset, and LeBron is doing things that shouldn't be possible at his age. We break it all down, then shift to the NFL Draft — winners, losers, and what NIL is doing to the pipeline. We close with a roundtable: you're the GM of an expansion team, one player to build around, no Luka, no SGA, no Wemby. Who do you take?

The NBA playoffs are here and every series is a movie — so we did the trailers. All eight first round matchups, rated and titled. Plus: the NFL Draft is four days out and here are the storylines worth watching beyond your own team's pick. Baseball is three weeks in and the Mets are already a disaster. Shohei Ohtani is doing things that shouldn't be possible. The Stanley Cup Playoffs started this weekend and Connor McDavid still hasn't won one. And three people in California just got sentenced for submitting insurance claims on a Rolls-Royce Ghost using a bear costume. A lot happened. Let's get into it.

Rory McIlroy just won back-to-back Masters titles — only the fourth player in history to do it. Cannon and Glue Guy Kirby react to the week at Augusta, debate where Rory belongs on the all-time list, and ask whether Justin Rose is running out of time. Then it's NBA playoffs preview time — the Play-In breakdown, one Glue Guy per confirmed team you need to be watching, and why the KD Files prove Houston's locker room is the opposite of connected. Plus the Parlay: the Dodgers' terrible return on investment, 59 years and counting for Toronto, Sinner reclaims number one with a win over Alcaraz at Monte Carlo, and a take on Bieber's Coachella return.

The Glue Guy Podcast is here. Episode 1 covers the Masters and whether Rory McIlroy can become just the fourth player in ninety years to defend a title at Augusta, the NBA MVP race and why SGA has already won it, a full preview of tonight's national championship game between UConn and Michigan, and listener takes on Duke losses and NBA awards. Plus Artemis II, the robot ump era, and the Buffalo Sabres ending a 14-year drought.
