Summary

Our guest this week is the host of one of the biggest podcasts in the world, Pardon My Take, Dan Katz aka Big Cat. This was originally supposed to be a draft but the conversation was too good so we made it it’s own ep. We’re psyched to share it (get ready to laugh). Topics included: Why Joe Burrow rules, how Luka reminds JJ of Burrow, who should win MVP and why Big Cat doesn’t think it will be Jokic, why sitting players on the second night of a back-to-back game happens and the downside to doing it, how Big Cat doesn’t believe LeBron James should’ve backed Shannon Sharp after he got into it with The Memphis Grizzlies, behind-the-scenes of the success of Pardon My Take and an all-time draft of ‘Sports moments we hope get made into movies one day.’ Get ready for a highly entertaining show!
