Summary

Hello! It’s the podcast that's talking to the old bearded leprechaun shackled to the top of the backboard during free throws. Today, Katie and the Casualties react to the NBA “canceling” Magic City Night while still selling the wings and merch, Dak Prescott’s ex-fiancée making her first statement post-breakup, the Hofstra(!) men making their first actual trip back to the NCAA Tournament in 25 years, and Miami (OH) trying to get into the tournament despite being… undefeated? Then, comedian Joey Avery joins the show [23:24] to talk about his new special and watching sports from a green room, Clavicular and the Manosphere waging a war on sports, prediction markets, the war on betting, and betting on war, NFL Free Agency and Maxx Crosby’s canceled deal with the Ravens, the 49ers signing Mike Evans and our prayers for his ligaments, Daniel Jones and his Achilles tendon returning to Indianapolis, the Jets reuniting with Geno Smith, Team USA’s performance at the WBC and the travesty of their manager thinking they had already advanced to the next round of the tournament before losing to Italy, Italy’s dugout vibes vs. ours, Cal Raleigh and Randy Arozarena’s confusing feud, Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game and the likelihood of A’Ja Wilson now going for 84, and an epic celebration of the 25th Anniversary of Disney Channel’s Luck of the Irish, with a look at the movies five most absolutely insane plot points. The team wraps the show with a mailbag featuring Ryan Blaney’s parking brake and fans yelling at Brady, and the question of “What fictional headline about Tom Brady in 2026 could possibly sound unbelievable?” Love you, mean it.

They were at the same event at Zero Bond. At this point, I think this is you guys just are getting money from Zero Bond at Win Las Vegas. And you keep putting these stories in front of me so that I'll say, Zero Bond at Win Las Vegas. But they were also there. They were photographed at the event, but they were not seen together at the same time. Oh, my God. I'm so sick of this couple. I don't even know if they're a couple anymore, and I'm already sick of them. I know. I just want it confirmed. Like, Tate McCray and Jacques Hughes, just let me know. Like, are you guys dating or not? I don't want to be, because according to a report from Men's Journal, Brady had already left the venue before Earl arrived, which is like, is men's journal just Tom Brady's journal?

Why has anybody reporting this?

We're going to talk about sports because we love them and we think everybody can love them and we want it to be interesting and exciting. I'm Katie Nolan. I'm your host. Joined a little bit here by a guest, a wonderful guest, Joey Avery, a comic. He's been here before. His new special is out now on his YouTube, so we talked to him a little bit about that and about sports. You know, he's a Bay Area guy, so we declare his fandoms so that you all know. And then we talk to him about free agency. What else? The World Baseball Classic. Where America, where I'm at in the timeline. I don't know what's happening where you are, dear viewer and listener, but the United States may have embarrassed themselves, put themselves in a tough spot. So we get into that. And then we play a fun game to honor the 25th anniversary of the Disney Channel original movie. Luck of the Irish. The one about basketball, kind of. The one about leprechauns. We play a fun game. Anyway, we're gonna get to all of that in a second. But first, we have a couple news stories we want to update you on that we've followed here on the show.
