Summary

Opie & Ron the Waiter react to the Knicks making the NBA Finals for the first time since '99 — but savage the insane NYC ticket prices (game 3 nosebleeds at $4,200+ while San Antonio is cheap). They roast the tag-still-on hats, painted railings, celebrity courtside flexes, and James Dolan. Plus: Opie’s full-blown tick bite meltdown (possible alpha-gal? Martha’s Vineyard is ground zero), the Save Opie’s Rotting Tooth Fund, nest of nymphs horror stories, guinea fowl spirit animals, and classic NYC vs California homelessness talk. Pure chaos and laughs as always. Go Knicks. Subscribe, rate, and drop a buck in the tooth/tick fund if you’re feeling generous.
