The myth, the man, the Meadowlarker returns for more conversation and takes. This pod begins with my sincere compliment of a guy who’s become, in my opinion, essential to that LeBatard operation. So without further ado, this podcast includes but is not limited to the following topics:
* A former NBA player told Amin he loves his HoS appearances; This makes Amin suspicious of said player
* I LARP’d as Keith Olbermann in 2012 because my bosses kept treating me better after tantrums
* We theorize what happened with the Glen Kuiper n-bomb error
* I display my sociopathic PR skills, reveal how I would have saved Aziz Ansari in 2018
* How players get over or underrated over time (Did Kobe’s tragic demise influence the way he’s discussed?)
* Some NBA hipsters say Scottie Pippen was a top 2/3/4 1990s player. We start a list of guys we’d take over the admittedly great Pip.
* Shawn Marion as another “hipster revisionism” guy
* Amin talks about the time Marion was force fed the star role he always begged for
* Did Amin and Ethan cry on recent podcasts? Or merely pause?
* Amin reads his childhood diary entries.
* We love the Cam'ron and Mase sports talk show
