Hello there. What you're about to hear is a preview this week's premium episode of It's

Just Banter. These are the episodes where Jake and I will feature our political opinions,

and also a lot of the regular stuff they're used to from the Tuesday episodes.

That five bucks helps us to be able to dedicate a little bit more time in our lives to the podcast. It also just makes a lives better because people enjoy life more when they have more

money. So think about signing up. And either way, please enjoy this preview. Are you aware that, like,

that, like, I know that Kyrie got really into the Native American situation. and I think he might have even, like, went to a ceremony.

Okay.

Do you remember seeing, like, video of that?

No.

Like, he might have gotten a name, but I don't know if it was related to his family heritage or not, but are you aware that he is now a practicing Muslim?

That's beautiful.

No, I did not.

I wish him the best of luck in it.

So I saw this clip the other day where he was asked about Ramadan and whether or not he's fasting,

which has always been an interesting thing to me for athletes all over the world.

You know, not as much in the U.S., but just like the fact that you are having to do this

job, especially in, you know, 2020 where everybody's a machine without eating during the daytime.

Like, that would seemingly be a major problem for an athlete. And so Kyrie said that, you know, he's like,

yes. And you'd almost have to see the clip. And maybe it's just because I can't stand him.
