On today's episode, we've got a couple different things.

I want to talk about this Janus story because I do think it's alarming.

It's not more of the same.

It's actually different.

I just really don't understand the timing. So we'll talk to Bucks. We'll talk to Janus in one paragraph in particular that I think should be alarming. I don't really have trade destinations for him right now. Like, yeah, sure, he'd look great next to Wemby. I don't know if the Knicks have the assets to pull that stuff off. We're talking baseball because it's the playoffs and it's Jeff Passant. So we'll run through the judge home run, some of the Philly complaints up against his Dodgers machine, how great the brewers have looked, how the mariners have been rebuilt. We'll do that, some other bigger baseball stuff as well and get you ready for the rest of those series. And Jeff Passon's sticking around for life advice. We don't do this a lot.

You never let me do this before. We'll knock $100 off that true coat. But we're doing life advice with Passon. It's going to be a lot of fun, so enjoy the pod.

Since it's Wednesday and we do do a ton of football.

We're doing a little baseball today.

Let's do a little basketball to start the show on a Wednesday, October 8th, because October 7th is a weird day for an NBA rumor.

And that's what we got yesterday from Shams Sharania on ESPN, talking about the uncertainty

of Janice's future in Milwaukee.

There's a bunch of different ways to kind of look at this article, whereas the opening

public shot, is it summarizing the uncertainty from the Bucks ownership in front office about their

star? Is it the Knicks who I don't know what that package is, considering all the assets

that they've given up unless it's like, hey, you're going to wait a few months on a Bridges deal?

So look, there's a lot of things in this that I already can tell.

Like, if you're Milwaukee Bucks fan, I know this sucks.

You've been hearing about this now for a really long time, and your guy's still there,
