The NBA is rigged.

Is anybody surprised?

I don't know if the whole thing is rigged, but there's this massive scandal.

34 indictments, professional players getting wrapped up in not just rigging games and flubbing the ball,

but also mafia-tied illegal poker games.

And so, you know, we actually, before the show is getting started, anybody's anyone here actually

know anything about sports.

Fortunately, Tate does.

So he's sitting here and we're going to have it.

But this is a crazy story.

Stephen A. Smith says this is Trump's revenge.

Despite the fact the investigation has been going on for several years and started during the Biden administration, Democrats are still trying to find a way to make this Trump's fault that professional coaches and NBA players were ripping people off with illegal rigged poker games

and rigging actual NBA basketball games.

Okay, that's how you know people have lost their mind.

So let's talk about something kind of normal for once, like the NBA being rigged,

which I think most people already assumed.

So we're going to talk about that and a lot more.

Before we do, my friends,

we've got a great sponsor. It is Beam Dream. You know I love my Beam Dream. I drink it every single night. My sleep has been absolutely fantastic. Well, we've actually got some new information. They're doing a big sale, 50% off right now. So guys, if you follow my work, you know that I don't really have an off switch. It's funny because they wrote that. It's true, though. Between breaking

news, nonstop politics and producing content, my brain is on overdrive 24-7. Indeed, I do a morning show. I get up at around 7 a.m. Then we record from maybe around like 8.30 till 2. And then, of course, there's an hour live in there. so it's basically three or four podcasts per day i don't know how i'm still breathing but i started drinking beam dream it's got elthenine it's got melatonin magnesium in it it is absolutely incredible it tastes great cinnamon cocoa is my favorite but i just ordered the pumpkin spice very excited so what i love about it's not, it's not a gimmick. It's clean. It's science backed.

It's got all that good stuff in it to help you sleep, good, deep, consistent sleep. And if you're a guy, you got to understand testosterone and human growth hormone. That's produced by your body during deep sleep and REM sleep. So you need to get your sleep. There's no joke. if you've been running on fumes, now is your chance to fix that. Beam has

given me early access to their Black Friday sale. Oh, boy. The biggest sale of the year,
