    What’s with the inconsistency in posting podcasts? Today was the first since Wednesday. The content is good but unfortunately we only get to hear when you all choose to post. Pretty weak for such a big station.

  • Enjoy them while we can

    Mark and Dusty are smart, funny, witty, and their compradore is fantastic. They’re my favorite duo in Oklahoma radio, and I like to consume their content in podcast form when I can’t listen live. They bring on really good guest and the regulars Jake Trotter, Royce Young, and Adam Amin are must downloads. Hope you decide to check them out!

Nick Gallo Joins The Show To Talk Thunder Playoff Basketball! Cale Gundy Spring Game Preview!
Q: What do you think will be the biggest factors for the Thunder in the playoffs?
The primary driver will be sustaining Shea's high-level production while the team gets help from secondary scorers, improving three-point efficiency by getting steady contributions from role players, and leveraging the improved interior presence and run game to create easier scoring opportunities.

National Championship Preview! Masters Week w/ Humpman! Thunder In Good Shape!
Q: What makes Augusta National tougher for the field compared to LIV courses?
The major setups are always tougher, and Augusta's par fours require saving par on tough holes; the course favors precision iron play and execution over sheer power, especially with linked holes like 15, 5, 17, and 11.
It's Tournament Time! Thunder/Magic Tonight! WBC Tonight!
Q: What is the biggest NCAA Tournament takeaway discussed in this segment?
