  • Only because…

    Penalty shootouts without a question are THE BEST WAY to declare a champion after 120 of futbol play…. It is part of the game. Mano a mano… skill and luck all woven together. Heartbreaking and exhilarating all at the same time… no better ending after 120 of play.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Exclusive: The Harambe Tapes, Revealed
Q: How did the Harambe story evolve from a zoo incident into a global meme and business phenomenon?
The hosts and McCurry trace a path from a tragic event to a vast online culture, where memes, merch, and media rights exploded the story beyond its original context, creating a contentious economic ecosystem around Harambe's image.
Share & Anti-Pulitzer & Tell with Michael Cruz Kayne and Sam Reich
Q: What exactly is this anti-Pulitzer moment about, and what does it say about journalism?
The hosts joke about the anti-Pulitzer as a twist while acknowledging the surreal and self-referential nature of their award, using it to critique media narratives and sensationalism.
Share & Anti-Pulitzer & Tell with Michael Cruz Kayne and Sam Reich
Q: How should we explain who Sam is, Michael?
Sam Reich runs Dropout, a major figure in independent media, and is brought on to discuss how Dropout operates and what it means in the broader media ecosystem.
Steve Ballmer's Victim Impact, the Man Who Prosecuted Aspiration and the Abacus of Incarceration: Kawhi-Gate, Part X
Q: Could a salary capture convention scheme by a sports owner be relevant to the DOJ's investigation?
In general, prosecutors pursue the most serious, readily provable offenses first, and while salary-cap circumvention can be part of the narrative, the fraud itself and the ability to prove it often drives the charging and sentencing dynamics.
"The Jeffrey E. Epstein Fund for Women's Athletics": We Investigate Harvard's Hidden Epstein Files (Part 1)
Q: What did Harvard know about Jeffrey Epstein's donations and when did they know it?
The hosts reveal that Harvard had internal records showing Epstein's donations and a fund named after him, yet the public self-report omitted these details, raising questions about the timing and completeness of Harvard's knowledge and disclosure.
