  • College basketball recruitment and player retention is being disrupted by one-and-done rules and transfer portal dynamics, with elite freshmen creating unprecedented draft class depth
  • Social media and viral moments are creating new accountability mechanisms for athletes and public figures, with recording culture changing behavior expectations

Ready for a different take on Formula One? Look no further than No Grip, a new podcast tackling the culture of motor racing's most coveted series. Join me, Lily Herman, as we dive into the underexplored pockets of F1, including the astrology of the current grid. Lewis Hamilton, Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. Wouldn't you know it, Michael Schumacher is also a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. The story of the sport's most consequential driver's strike. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out, and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom. And was Daniel Ricciardo's illustrious F1 career a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both? He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this, I'm better.

It could be. Okay. It could be, but if it's just not there, it ain't there, baby. Ain't much I can do. Now, the funny part is, if it ain't there, he's like, I'm still saying tonight. I always tell niggas, bro, listen. Where the fuck y'all be fine in this shit? What the fuck y'all doing, man? Every time I look at the screen, it's me on some bullshit. I always tell niggas. Fuck, though. If you slip out, bro, it's her fault, bro. If a nigga keeps slipping out, it's your fault. It's the girl's fault, bro. It's never your fault, okay? Yeah, that ain't true. Ladies, don't let them watch me. Man, you're here. While we're here, go ahead. That's hilarious. My boy Nacho and the fashion show. They found the footage. 2015. Ain't no black suit that tailored, nigga. There we are. Boy, that was wicked. Zoom out. Okay. Okay, my boy. They gave you a three? Oh, damn. Damn. I got a three? Ain't no way it gave me a three, but I still was taking it to the nines, man. Oh, nine. Okay, my bad, my bad. Hey, while we're here, before you leave, Barbie, did you ever grow up watching America's Next Top Model? Yep. Did you see the documentary on Netflix? I haven't seen it yet. Hey. Yeah, they was wild. Man, that show was crazy as fuck. Yeah, they was wild. The fact that the directors was just like, yeah, we saw other reality shows like Fear Factor and thought we had to compete. Man, they had them models doing crazy shit. They had them act like they was drug addicts. Shorty mama was paralyzed And she got shot in the head And so for her photo shoot They made them all act like they were dead And they was just like You got a gunshot to the head Yeah you wild again That's wild again Tyra is wild And everybody hates Tyra Because the whole documentary bro She was just like Yeah it happened Yeah Nigga got new things on the way I'm not looking at him bro It's crazy bro And they ain't even wild as shit bro A nigga was touching on a girl There bro Bro nah bro The nigga was like Being handsy with a girl She's like hey this nigga Is doing too much And they was like, that's the shot we need. Dude, they was wild then, bro. Fight through. Yeah, bro. I ain't laughing at you being here. Yeah, that's not funny. But for them to have the camera work, bro, Tyra was like, yeah, we should have done better back then. Y'all are pieces of shit, bro. Yeah, that show is crazy. You know what Tyra said? And we got more things coming. Nigga, that got new scenes on the way. She treated it like promo. We got new things. Never watched that shit. Bro. And they ain't funny about nobody's parents dying or whatever. No, no, no. I'm just saying, like, for them to make you act like you got shot in the head. I'm talking about that alone. How can them just act like you got shot in the head? It's crazy. Bro, it was like the temptation when he wrote that song. He said, my daddy died on this day. He said, bingo. Kettle. That's what they was on, bro. They was wildin'. I couldn't believe that show. It was the 3rd of September. Wait a minute. With my daddy died. So are those people coming out, like, saying that thing? The whole documentary, they're saying, bro, this show was bullshit. They put us through everything. and they were just like, we couldn't even make no money or be respected as real models because everybody looked at that as just complete bullshit. But they was doing life altering stuff. That wasn't on the show then. That could have made the show. Yes, bro. They were all screen. You just hear the backstories behind them. They took shorty T-File for no reason, bro. Send her home the next week. They don't fuck them. They ain't correct nothing. I still have an overbite. They said, you need to go to the dentist. They took a black girl. Yeah, bitch, if you, if they took your T-File, you got dentures and got an overbite, bitch, that's your fault. The ball date? Yeah. Touché. Yeah that your fault Yeah touche It ain Tyra no fault Bro girl bro Tyra no fault He had humble beginnings Tyra was like your grandma spent her light bill to get you a new bikini She ain't got no lights. You got a bikini. What the fuck are you telling me to do this? And my grandma, why is she in trouble? Why is she catching the script? Why do you got a bikini though? She is modeling. But why is it light bill or bikini? And why are you judging her? How much was the bikini though? You could got that bitch for fashion. I know that AES deal did not amount to that motherfucking bikini. Well, I thought somebody made it and became successful from that show. I don't know shit about it. Certain people did, bro, but so many people didn't get recognized. People were lying as hell. I never heard on the gang. Yeah, shout out to you. That's another short hair step, motherfucker. That was premium. That documentary is absolutely crazy. I should be watching some wild shit, bro. It's fire, though, bro. It's like the behind the scenes. Like, everybody hates Tyrone. He ain't bad. I thought people came out Out of there And became successful That's why I thought I was just a pure model It ain't too many Being successful It makes sense though When the producers said Yeah we saw Fear Factor It was just like How can we incorporate this Yeah Fear Factor is OD But then they start Having them do them Dumb ass challenges bro It was crazy But I'm saying though y'all This is what I be saying She had to give them People permissions To pull her teeth out Yeah bro Like that's not Tyra's fault Either you gonna do it Or you not Anything Anybody do anything They put it on the spot And said hey we doing this so you're going home I want to win they thought they were getting real dental work bro she was in there for 12 hours there with no Novocaine bro like it was just like what the fuck are y'all doing it was crazy bro yeah one of the craziest she can't say usually when we do we say shout out to the person I guess we can't say shout out to Sarah Bage uh no I got a lighter question for y'all so when we do Pod Wars and it's karaoke what song y'all gonna sing if you had to do karaoke for the Pod Wars. What songs are you going to sing that you know you're going to kill? Probably R. Kelly is the remix to Ignition. Oh! I'm glad you said that. I got a question after that, but I'll probably sing... That's one of my favorite songs. Confessions. What about you, DJ? I was going to pick up your song. I was going to say Loving the Friends. This is the easiest song to remember. Or the end of Tip Drill. Like Ali in them part when they start chanting. I need no freak My song would be Friend of mine's the part where it was R. Kelly and Mr. Biggs going back and forth But I want to do all the parts You doing all the parts on Confessions? Yeah, I know every part But we was talking about this At the crib the other day We was like, what's the greatest remix? And it initially came up And we was talking about the greatest remix to a song And Confessions Was I know our I mean P Diddy and a lot of shit but he is the king of that shit I want to say the song with Loon I can't think of the name of it I Need a Girl yeah you think that's the best remix it's up there top fire that is a banger yeah I think I think a Nixon is a top fire one but I think Cut Off what's not Cut Off Cuff It by Beyonce that was it yeah I don't like the dude dude don't get his proper respect the dude who originated that on TikTok but I'm sorry I don't know your name right now but they kind of stole that from me. I know, but when they remixed, it was fire. Y'all say took it in. It really was that. On some nigga shit, I'm going to say Adios is an underrated rap remix because the original Adios is not as fire as the remix. The remix is fucking crazy. That's yo. Yeah. Boosting and Wavy versions of that song are fire. But Confession remix is fire though. Amazing. Yeah, Confession's a remix. And Ignition is a remix. Oh yeah, Ignition. Ignition has to be a top-off remix. Damn, I'm trying to think of the remix songs. I'm still laughing at what you got, mate. that got something with Lil Wayne on there I don't know fucking music like that Shardy Pop-Pies that's a remix the remix Shardy Pop-Pies is the remix who was on there? I don't remember that one Dice Pineapples Dice Pineapples got a remix I like Dice Pineapples but I always skip Raleigh doing the poetry at the beginning I ain't tracking that shit I love the poetry I don't get it. I fuck with Wale, but I'm a hot cool ass nigga. I fuck with Wale. I'm a good hot cool pool. So let's get to the track. Yeah, let's get to the track. All that snappy shit at the beginning. Nah, I don't want to hear that, bro. Damn, you got me really thinking about remix music, bro. Man, let us know in the comments y'all favorite remix, man. I know we missing a lot, man. Tap me. Also, shout out to the Asian dude who called in. We called Ray and he asked me your favorite R. Kelly song. I watched that call in back and it was cracking. That shit was funny. Nah, we got to do that again. Nah, we have fun. All right, B, we appreciate you. 520 somewhere. Tap me into the Patreon. For sure. Take a little crazy. All right, man. Adam Silver, man, he out here hating. Let's get to it, man. I'm tired of this. What do you say? Man, they trying to fix the tanking rules next year. Make sure y'all do it next year. Here are some of the things they're trying to do to take it out of the game. They said first-round picks can be protected only top four or top 14. That was a shot at the Pacers, but it's cool. Lottery odds freeze after the trade deadlines or a later date. I'm not mad at that. No longer allowing the team to pick top four in consecutive years or consecutive bottom three finishes. So you got to be good at some point to keep getting a draft pick. I'm not mad. Teams can't pick top four the year after making the conference finals. That's direct hate, and I don't appreciate that at all, but I ain't mad at it. Lottery odds to be allocated based on two-year records? Nah, that sucks. Lottery extended to include all playing teams? No, that's nasty. And then flatten the odds for all lottery teams. I feel like any of these things Is gonna help with the tanking next year Yup Yeah So now you gotta play for something I'm not mad at you saying You stopping after the trade that line But that's kinda wicked too You have to implement these rules bro You got to But I think they should just do it like Real life Like The best team in the league Put them all in a hat Like a real thing Put all the teams in there Yeah And whoever get the draft pick Get the draft pick I'm rolling All 30 teams in there Then it don't matter Yeah it don't matter It don't matter like Don't cause you ain't gonna know nothing Yeah it don't matter And let's be real y'all acting like the draft Is like accurate and fair Cause it's not Let's keep it a bit I don't think nobody's slow bro everybody understand But you gotta that's what we grew up on bro You gotta keep the aesthetics the aesthetics I like bro's thing You be like damn dude okay season's won But they got the number three pick Just off the strength of the hat And now you gotta make trades Now the game get fun because you got to start moving players around. Like if the Lakers get the number one pick, they got A.J. DeBenz. It's like, damn, we might have to move on from Broncos. You know what I mean? It's just different stuff. Like when Dallas got the number one pick, we like, shit, Dallas is a whole different team now. That shifted some shit for sure. Yeah, so I kind of like that because now it don't matter. Yeah. Now the two years, I don't like that because, bro, something crazy could happen to us, bro. We ain't tanking, bro. We just saying. I like everybody having a free reign because now you got to build real good teams. Like, everybody can't just be like, yo, we going to be sad for the next three years and try to build through the draft. Right. It was like, nah, you might not ever get that pick. So you're going to have to spend money. Yeah. And you might have to bring back more veteran players because your team got to be good. You ain't going to try to build it with all sad people. You're going to have to start spending money. It's going to give more people a chance to stay in the league a little longer, I feel like. Quality players. Yeah. I agree 100%. Also, I wasn't mad at them saying, all right, we're going to do the salary cap shit. and if you want a rookie you can pay for him how bad you want him I ain't mad at that you gotta outbid somebody but if you gonna do that you gotta take the high school rule back like you gotta let kids come out of high school yeah Darren Peters just not be playing college basketball nah I mean but if they're gonna be free agents you gotta let them be able you gotta let it be free where everybody can be here anytime they want to alright that's gonna shake up a lot of shit it ain't bad but times to times are now so fuck it I seen it I seen it I think maybe was it Melo talking about it and he was talking about our one done really messing up college basketball? They do. Because what you going to do, like you got AJ DeBan, so obviously he's one in a million. He plays every game. He played 40 minutes of the night, played hard, did everything he was supposed to do. Not everybody going to be advising their kid to do that. Nah. Like, if you got a little ankle injury, hey, chill out, bro. We going to the draft. Like, sit that one out. So I don't think it's going to help college basketball in no time soon. Like obviously this is One in a million years That all these freshmen Are playing really great And they Oh yeah And everybody Another five years Before this happen again It won't happen no time soon Yeah that's all I was gonna ask Is overreacting Because of what's so great This year that everybody's like We gotta lock in this year Cause next year's draft I mean shout out to everybody I don't know if it's gonna have The same type of impact It won't And these rules might not even matter Cause niggas gonna be like We ain't got nothing to sing for Well I mean you never know What these high school kids Is doing for real What they're doing On the college level Touche Yeah I mean Nate, it's going to be some freshmen that have a good year. Yeah. But not to this magnitude. I mean, we got. These kids have a bunch of hype, too. We got like 18 freshmen playing at elite level. Yeah. You could legitimately have a top 10 of all freshmen if you wanted to. Yeah, that's a fact. That's a fact. Yeah. I'm glad Adam's stepping in, though, making some shit shake, though. Because you got to clean it up, bro. You got to. As long as it goes into effect next year, as long as y'all don't do no bullshit between now and the next couple months, I'm all for it. Don't cheat us, bro. See, if that's all we got to apply to us, I don't like that. See, if I'm a young fella, I want everybody in the draft because, shit, usually this is, usually the bad cities are the bad teams, right? Like, usually all the sad teams being bad cities. True. It's rare you get to go to a good city, make top five. Yeah. Very rare. I'll be pissed. And that's funny you said it because Mark Cuban has some incentives as far as attendance and stuff like that. Like, y'all got to meet these quotas and shit. like the Flint Tropic and shit and when it goes to the NBA it's a tennis up nigga no that's a good I mean for real I'd be like I seen I seen Ant talking about going to Memphis and no disrespect to Memphis but that hotel is shitty he said I walked in my hotel I thought man that a long time ago man that hotel is shitty yeah everybody always speak Memphis though for the hotel being the worst hotel we went in there and it was all brown water in the tub cause that's why I used to have a video with that shit, bro. That shit was so nasty. You got hotel trauma for real, though. I don't really fuck with hotels. Yeah. Even though Mike picked some of the worst hotels, it probably couldn't be as bad as your NBA experience in Memphis. Memphis is the only bad one. It's the only book where we can afford. Nigga, when you book that one with the carpet. No, when he booked Philadelphia. Yeah, with the carpet. Nigga, we left. When the elevator had carpet, I said, oh yeah, it's with him. We made an executive decision not to you stay. Yeah, nigga, we all. We didn't stay until we got in a room and said. Yeah, I could have just bought one room and changed. It wasn't that bad, y'all. No, it was. It was outdated. Nah, that shit was trash. That was the second most I had a 27-inch TV, bro, in like a China cabinet. We opened the cabinet, motherfucker put on a laptop. Yeah, bro. I had there like a red fire truck in my room. I was like, am I at Wishart? I didn't know what was going on. That hotel was ass. My carpet was red, too. It was like a freaky It was really cool. It's all right. Because then you got to walk on that shit. Think how many times niggas just let that shit fly on? I don't know. A black light in that hotel would have done. With the numbers, nigga. I mean, man, we travel so much now. Like, I feel like I'm in the league. I kind of just be free now. I become one with the earth with my hotel room. I'm neat, bro. Hey, everyone.

Ready for a different take on Formula One? Look no further than No Grip, a new podcast tackling the culture of motor racing's most coveted series. Join me, Lily Herman, as we dive into the underexplored pockets of F1, including the astrology of the current grid. Lewis Hamilton, Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. Wouldn't you know it, Michael Schumacher is also a Capricorn Sun, Cancer Moon. The story of the sport's most consequential driver's strike. We have one man who, upon hearing that he was going to be fired, freaked out and apparently climbed out the window of the bathroom. And was Daniel Ricciardo's illustrious F1 career a success story, a cautionary tale, or some combination of both? He started getting all this attention, and he maybe started to think, I'm bigger than this, I'm better. And plenty of other mishaps, scandals, and sagas that have made Formula One a delightful, decadent dumpster fire for more than 75 years. Listen to No Grip starting March 4th on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I'm Daniel Jeremiah. And I'm Greg Rosenthal. And this is 40s and Free Agents.

Listen to 40s and free agents on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I seen a meme the other day. It was like, it's fitting for hotels. It was like, when we go to a hotel, bro, you might just nut on the TV. Like, it's that you're supposed to go crazy in hotels. So that's what I think of when I go to a hotel. That is for you and your family to enjoy y'all today. Not for y'all to be putting y'all DNA all over the wall. But I was like, that's what niggas do when they go to hotels. Niggas book rooms. Like, I used to watch Pips on the Corner. What was that shit called? Hoes on the Stroll? And niggas... Your algorithm's a little different than mine. This is... When I was... You're bringing this up like every four... I'm just saying, they go in the hotels, bro. What they do, they smut them out. But do they do... I don't know what the NBA niggas do. Typically at the Red Roof Inn. I don't know what those football players do. See? Let me keep out of everybody. MLB players, dude. We say every major league sport. Oh, man.

And you said she had a pic with a fist on it. You was mad. Because I thought she was about to go get a soul. Usually when girls wear their hair out, everybody go get a brain. They're about to go die balls. I always I get to think of grace every time because I know there am I hey was the pick on the side y'all are fine alright man listen this is hilarious before we get out of here first overall pick the draft is 2020s and the 2010s obviously you see which pick they skipped from the 2020s and where have they been up no they you know what I'm saying they made the best list of those gentlemen Zachary wasn't listening to this one but respect which team y'all taking in the game? Bottom. 5v5. So in the 2020s, for those who can't see, you got Cade, AE, P5, Cooper, Wimby. 2010s, you got John Wall, Kyrie, Zion, AD, and Cat. I got 2010. I'm damn near going 2020s. Okay. I've seen a lot of back and forth from sooners. B-Han, why you working with your squad? I just feel like a more complete team. Okay. You think they're more complete? AD and Cat. I like AE and K better. Mm-hmm. But AD and Cat and you shit. John Wall and Kyrie, you know what they do. Mm-hmm. That's a more complete team. Okay. Everybody at their prime obviously healthy as well. T, 2020, you something. You see that Pablo, the P5, him and Zion. That's tough. That's a tough matchup. I like both of them. But that's going to be Zion. It's tough for Cooper. And then Cooper flag. Prime, AD. He too early. It's too early. Yeah, and he like too little. Yeah. Yeah. Too little. I like the future of the top. I think they're going to be better overall. I think they're going to have better careers than the ones at the bottom. They all got a legendary career. I agree with that. I think 2020 for sure will have a better career. That's why I said the size in the backcourt make a difference, but that frontcourt with AD and Cat and Zion, ass tough. I mean, even though Wimby is different. We see Wimby doing some amazing shit, but they all capable of being Hall of Famers. Yeah. on both teams. Yeah. But I just think that upside for that 2020 a little different. Yeah, that K and AE backcourt matchup would be terrifying. Even though that is the guy Kyrie, that is John Wall in his prime, fast as shit. That's a tough night for both of them. For sure. I mean, it's going to be tough both like Kyrie or motherfucker, boy. Yeah, I was going to say. You might want to see him ISO alone. Yeah.
