If you're not nervous, you're not ready.

Ah!

Woo!

Good morning, Swin World!

And welcome to the No Dongs podcast on the Athletic Network.

It's Tuesday, March 16th. I'm Jaye Skeets rolling this morning with Mr. What You Need to Know Himself. Tass. Hey, Melis. What's on, Tass? Hey, Big Guy. We got the International Man of Mystery taking it to the Max. Lee Ellis. Friends. Mm. Lee Lee. Last but not least, making the magic happen here is J.D.

And finally, if you're a top shot hot boy or girl, I fired up a live stream last night,

ripping another Rising Stars pack.

Got another banger! And had some fun counting down my top 10 NBA top shot thumbnails uh which sounds silly it is but we had a blast putting that together

so that's up on youtube go check that out last night uh and tas yeah i didn't even know it at the time

because i was i was doing everything. JD, man,

I always knew you were making the magic happen. I say it every day. But man,

got a lot of balls in the air to sort of keep your eye on, especially while trying to host the damn thing. Yeah. I know. A lot of moving parts. It's, it's deceptively simple to do it, but when you have everything going at the same time, it can get overwhelming.
