  • Brent Gunning has to go

    Ben is amazing. I only listen to the show when Brent is off as I find him overwhelming and agitating.

    Please replace Brent with Sam McKee or another host and I will listen regularly.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Frank Seravalli & Justin Bourne on Leafs Coaching Search
Q: What seems to be the biggest challenge in this coaching search?
The biggest challenge is narrowing down from a wide list of experienced candidates to one clear front-runner while balancing fit, track record, and the need to win soon, without rushing into a hire that might not align with the team's direction.
Blue Jays' Tough Weekend + World Cup Takeaways
Q: What have you made of the start of the first ever expanded World Cup to 48 teams?
Goodman notes the tournament's explosive start and emphasizes depth and rotation, predicting how top teams will manage minutes as the event stretches, while acknowledging the ongoing debates around hosting controversies and the evolution from a sprint to a marathon.
Kawhi Officially a Raptor & Jon Morosi on Jays – Tigers
Q: What does Kawhi Leonard's return mean for the Raptors' championship odds this season?
It solidifies the Raptors as a legitimate contender by adding a veteran star who elevates both scoring and defense, while potentially benefiting younger players by providing a proven playoff-tested floor leader.
Super Bowl Rematch Kicks Off NFL Season with Charles Davis + AL Cy Young Race
Q: What is the biggest storylines entering week one of the NFL season according to Charles Davis?
Davis highlights the Super Bowl rematch dynamics, the challenge of defending champs starting on the road, and how protecting the QB and adapting to the new offensive threats will shape the opening weeks.
Blue Jays Drop Series to Athletics with Jensen Lewis
Q: Jensen, with 15 games left, how do you evaluate the Blue Jays' chances given the current injuries and the tough stretch ahead?
Jensen stressed that while injuries have hampered the rotation, the bullpen has kept them competitive and that remaining games against strong AL teams will test whether the offense can finish drives when opportunities arise; the Jays need to maximize their depth, control the strike zone, and rely on timely hitting from key players to stay in the wild-card mix.
