    ODDBALL - Explaining Star Wars in NBA Terms

    It's official: Jalen Brunson and the Knicks have eliminated Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey, and the rest of the 76ers after game six last night. Charlotte and Amin recap that game, and preview New York's round two opponent: the Indiana Pacers. They also predict which remaining round one series will go all the way to game seven: Clippers vs Mavericks, or Magic vs Cavaliers? 


    And in honor of Star Wars Day tomorrow, Amin explains the beloved movie franchise to Charlotte in terms she'll actually understand: NBA comparisons. He explains why Grogu is like Victor Wembanyama, Jimmy Butler is like Darth Maul, and Ja Morant is like Kylo Ren.

    COOLIGANS - Christian isn't scared of the PSG ultras!

    The results of the Champions League semi-finals first legs were shocking, but will the second legs leave us with the same level of surprise?  


    How do Real Madrid and PSG not have massive leads following the first legs of the Champions League semis?!?! We were all surprised by how well Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund were able to hold up against superior opposition this week, but we're not sure they'll be able to stand firm again in the second legs. Christin and Alexis break down all the UCL action and give their predictions about which sides will face off in the final at Wembley. The guys also recap Columbus Crew's upset victory over Monterrey in CONCACAF Champions League and give out a parlay for the final weekend of The Championship season.

    ÂĄAdios, Miami Heat!

    Charlotte's Celtics sent the Heat packing on an early vacation, and she treated herself to a cold cup of Heat tears. Amin goes off on ESPN for trying to get retweets after tweeting about the Clippers and Crypto Arena, which eventually backfired when The Clippers suffered the worst post-season loss in franchise history. Michael Rubin bought 2000 tickets for Philly fans, but Amin and Charlotte think it might not be enough for the Knicks' takeover of the Sixers arena. We put our conspiracy theory hats on to find out if Damian Lillard will be playing in tonight's game after seeing him with a burrito in his hand yesterday. If he does play, will that change the outcome of today's game and make this a seven-game series? We find out Charlotte may not know who "The Fonz" is.

    PTFO - The Most Popular (and Insane) Third Party in American History, with Jon Bois

    Jon Bois, the internet's most creative documentarian, somehow uses Google Earth to take you on a journey from Viking longships, to Bob Gibson, to Ross Perot. His new docu-series, REFORM!, is the forgotten story of political quacks, wonks and clown cars. Its lessons are just as relevant today as they were in the '90s — in large part because some of those same cranks are still around, daring us to remember how we got here... and why we can't escape.
