  • Episode-47 Soccer galore!
    Jul 25 2023

    In this episode, Ken and I look back on Lionel Messi's incredible debut with Inter Miami, where he score a magnificent free kick in the final seconds to help them win against Cruz Azul of LigaMX.

    The game was overshadowed by DC United firing their head trainer being fired for displaying white supremacy sign, and two players getting suspended all within the 48 hours, and also USMNT getting ousted by Panama in the Gold Cup semifinal with mostly MLS players, who are well below against European based players.

     

    We also touched on USWNT beating Vietnam 3-0 in their opener in Women's World Cup in Australia, well below their standards, and FOX Sports' coverage compared that to their Qatar World Cup coverage last November. 

     

    We closed out the show by discussing the trade rumor surrounding Angels' Shohei Ohtani and debated whether he will be traded and if so, which team will get him for short term. Also, we touched on the his next contract, which could reach $600 million, and the reaction it will likely receive from the fans and media.

  • Episode 46-The week before the start of training camp
    Jul 20 2023

    In this episode, Bears YouTuber Rishab Skiri from YouTube's DaWindy Productions joined me to discuss the current Bears roster and discussed the strength and weakness of each positions and storylines heading into training camp.

     

    We also reacted to DeAndre Hopkins signing with Tennessee Titans, which came as a surprise, and the devaluation of running backs as none of the franchised running backs(Saquon Barkley, Josh Jacobs, and Troy Pollard) did not come to terms on a long term deals.

  • Episode 45-Ken Fang from ”Awful Announcing”-MLB All-Star Game and Northwestern hazing scandal etc.
    Jul 13 2023

    In this episode, my cohost Ken Fang from "Awful Announcing" joined me to discuss the following topics:

     

    1. The value of MLB All-Star Game-While we both agree that it is still the best out of the four professional sports in the US, we discuss the diminishing viewership and the interest, and ideas to drum up interests being thrown out. 

    Speaking of an All Star, we both discussed the possibility of Shohei Ohtani being traded before the trade deadline.

     

    2. Northwestern Football Hazing Scandal-News broke out while we were recording that long time Northwestern football coach Pat Fitzgerald was fired due to hazing scandal that was reported last week, which he got only two weeks suspension. Ken and I discussed it from both football and media perspective on this incident.

     

    3. USMNT and USWNT both in action-Both US Men's and Woman's National Team were in action over the weekend with less than impressive results. The Men's Team beat Canada on a penalty kick, while Woman's Team defeat Wales 2-0 in their final tune up game before the World Cup. We also touched on less than ideal media coverage of both teams by Fox Sports, particularly Landon Donovan, and Alexi Lalas.

     

    4. History made in the MLB Draft-We ended the show by discussing the MLB Draft that took place last Sunday, and the impact of Arjun Nimmala, the first Indian American player ever selected in the first round by the Toronto Blue Jays, and his Indian roots.
