Hey, this is Robert from the Stuff to Blow Your Mind podcast.

Joe and I are both lifelong Star Wars fan, so we're celebrating May the 4th with a brand

new week of fun, thought-provoking Star Wars-related episodes.

Join us as we tackle science and culture topics from a galaxy far, far away, such as the

biology of taun tons and wampas on

the ice planet hot, or the practicality and corporate business sense of the Sith rule of two.

Listen to stuff to blow your mind on the iHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your

podcasts.

Oh, it is about that time. You're heading into the weekend. Maybe you're in the Midwest Central Time Zone. Five o'clock is quitting time. Friday. Friday. Six o'clock on the East Coast. You're already home. Getting ready for a couple of days of fun. Today's Friday. We're here on the West Coast. A couple more hours to go. One more hour for us and forgive you no one rich here, Monsi.

They don't always have to agree with me, but what I do appreciate when they disagree is they're cordial. Yes. Chris says, Dan, the Lakers were 14 and 2 before Lucas suffered his injury. LeBron accepted the third man role and was thriving. You're writing off a return to the Lakers way too soon. They'll take him back on a lesser deal. Monty writes 100. 100. That's right. What other options did LeBron James have? He doesn't have many. He really doesn't. No, but I mean, like to accept that third man role.

By the way, I would say that he's second man. Like, I know Austin Reeves is great. I was called Austin Rivers. You love that. Well, it's just been, the names have been in the news.
