Summary

Today's word of the day is 'apocalypse' as in what else is going to happen this year as in coronavirus as in hurricanes as in west coast wildfires. We live in one of the most insane years ever and it just keeps getting crazier. With the NFL season about to kickoff tonight, this weekend the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals, but THE SKY IS RED! The air quality is so poor because of the fire that the game might not happen (0:06). Steve Nash is the new head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. It's a big hire because he's a former 2-time NBA MVP. A question came up at his press conference about 'white privilege' and let's discuss his response (9:53). Review - I'm Thinking of Ending Things (20:15). So You Wanna Talk To Samson!? Someone asked me my thoughts on Justin Timberlake being added to a group trying to expand MLB into Nashville following my thoughts on Jennifer Lopez and the Mets. Let me take you to business class very quickly. How does the sale of authentics work for teams (27:00)? The Milwaukee Brewers claim their sales are down and the Atlanta Braves say their sales are up. Hmm (32:15). Bubble talk! Bubble talk! Some Lakers players are upset about late-night games and not enough time off. The GM for the Jazz wants to adapt the bubble scheduling to the regular season. Let's look at the NBA trying to take a page from MLB playbook and why it likely won't work... or will it (39:15)? #waittosee --------------------------- 'Nothing Personal with David Samson' is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Castbox, Bullhorn and wherever else you listen to podcasts.

0:00.0	There's COVID, there's hurricanes, there's fires, there's locusts, there's
0:29.9	hail, smiting of the first born. All those movies about apocalypse, they all sort
0:39.9	of look the same, right? They have this, you look in the cinematography in a
0:45.1	movie about the apocalypse, like the zombie movies, everything looks a little
0:49.0	more gray, but then once in a while there are these different hues of red and orange,
0:54.6	and it just looks incredibly unreal, right? Like this is what you would think the
1:02.5	apocalypse looks like, even though we've never had an apocalypse, but if we were to
1:05.9	have one, this is what it would be. Did you see the picture? Why is this the word
1:11.2	of the day you're asking? Good question. Did you see the picture in San
1:18.2	Francisco? Were the Niners were trying to practice and what their sky looked
1:26.3	like in Frisco, that red smoky? I think that's the fire, there's fires going on
1:32.8	in California, if you're there, I hope you're safe and please thank a fireman
1:36.6	and everybody trying to be helpful. There's a rumor that these fires may have
1:42.4	started from a gender reveal. I'm not that old-fashioned. I do a lot of cool stuff.
1:50.1	I try to act young and look young, and I got to tell you what's funny. When you're
1:56.1	having kids, the gender reveal was like a Hershey's bar, it's a, and if it's a
2:02.2	he, it would be the A-che of Hershey's, if it's a she, it would be the S-H-E of
2:07.2	Hershey's. That was the gender reveal. Or maybe you wouldn't even do a gender
2:12.0	reveal. You'd wait for the thing to pop out. You say, hey, that looks like a, ooh,
2:17.3	is that a boy? Oh, good luck, David. That's a gender reveal. Now they do all these stunts.
2:25.9	They show baseball players taking a bat and hitting a ball and out of the ball
