    I listen to The Morning Animals podcast and not live everyday due to my work schedule and very much enjoy the show. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 stars for one reason…it has to be one of the quietest podcast I’m subscribed to. I have to turn my radio up more than any other podcast to hear the show.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Berry Tramel Live From Tampa
Q: What did you take away from OU's preparation and the quarterback situation?

Berry Tramel Live From Tampa
Q: What was the most memorable part of your travel to SEC Media Days?
Berry explains the chaotic travel, choosing an Uber at a high cost to ensure he could be on time, and reflects on the freedom from airline constraints as a key takeaway.
Full Show July 8th
Q: What was the reaction to the Texas Tech Tortilla question at Big 12 Media Day?
The hosts describe it as a chaotic moment that exposed the conference's governance; the commissioner's handling by making the reporter stand up was controversial but ultimately framed as accountability, with mixed opinions on whether it should have been addressed more directly.
The Thunder Report June 5
Q: Matt, have you been able to refocus and re-channel your energy on the NBA Finals? And do you have any thoughts on how game one went?
The response emphasized that the Spurs showed youthful resilience but were rattled in the second half; the Knicks defended Rambayama effectively with a strategy involving high screens in a pick-and-roll, and Towns stepped up as a sturdy counter-attack with physicality, leading to a 10-point win in San Antonio.
First Take June 8
Q: Jalen, what do you think it means for this fan base to have a finals game in this building for the first time in such a long time?
Brunson responds that it's really cool and acknowledges the excitement in the fan base while noting that the team still has work to do.
