Summary

A new edition of Shaun’s Cinco de Luncho, the weekly countdown segment. With Friday the 13th setting the theme, Shaun counts down the dumbest superstitions people still believe—from knocking on wood and avoiding sidewalk cracks to the idea that opening an umbrella indoors brings bad luck. Evan and Tiki jump in with reactions, jokes, and their own experiences while debating why these traditions still stick around. Along the way, the conversation bounces between sports and life, including discussion about the World Baseball Classic and whether baseball can still be considered “America’s sport.” With listener calls, personal stories, and plenty of spontaneous banter, the closing segment captures the loose, unpredictable energy that makes a Friday sports radio show feel like organized chaos.

0:23.6	are obsessed with their former players and bringing the band back together.
0:27.6	I find that very, very strange.
0:29.6	By the way, I don't know if you saw this, and I was not fully aware of it until the other day,
0:33.0	but the Big 12 decided to have LED courts, right?
1:11.4	So they decided to put these new courts down, which are kind of cool because it can display graphics, and also it's a, I guess, interesting things for the viewers. But apparently the players thought the courts were too slippery, and it caused the big controversy. Uh-huh. And finally the Big 12 got rid of it after just a couple of days of the Big 12 tournament. Wow. But I do think that's the future. LED courts. I'm with you. Really? No doubt. They got to perfect it obviously. Keep it safe, make it good. But moving the lines, putting logos up. Think about it during every commercial break of the action. They could take all the lines off the court and do full advertisements. Like it's a TV screen.
1:11.9	Yeah. I can totally see that. That's in game. Do you really care about it? I don't know. Personally, I don't care about it. I'm just telling you it's the future. Because I know baseball does this, but you only see it on the television broadcast. Right? On the back of the mound, there's always some logo. Yes. You don't see that at the game.
1:27.4	You don't see it at the game.
1:28.6	So are you going to really care in the stadium?
1:31.3	No. the, on the back of the mound, there's always some logo. Yes. You don't see that at the game. You don't see it at the game.
