We discuss the start of the WNBA season and begin our campaign to get the Houston Comets reinstated in earnest. We also talk about the NBA Playoffs second round so far and how Jamal Murray could've killed someone. Finally, we beg Texas A&M University to leave us alone, we don't want to contribute to an NIL collective that will result in zero national championships.

We also talk about the NBA First Round Series that have wrapped up so far and just how cooked the Phoenix Suns are. Finally, Elle gives her thoughts on about the Texans draft class and the broadcast itself, while Aaron lets off a hot take about Mike Trout's career.

We're doing a solo pod today as Elle is off saving the world while Aaron podcasts. This week we discuss how Kirk Cousins might've lost his job before he even showed up for work the first time. Aaron also discusses how the Bills just can't seem to stop letting the Chiefs trade with them to draft super stars. We cover all the major happenings of a busy first round of the 2024 NFL Draft before getting you ready for an even busier weekend ahead.

This week, Elle and Aaron discuss Jontay Porter's lifetime suspension from the NBA after investigations into bets placed on or by him.

The pair review last week's Ball Knower of the Week Challenge and talk about the biggest moments from the WNBA Draft. Finally, Elle and Aaron play Real or Not Real before making their predictions for the top 10 NFL Draft picks in this week's Ball Knower of the Week Challenge.

This week we give our flowers to South Carolina (USC?) and UConn as collegiate basketball national champions. We also talk about where players like Zach Edy and Caitlin Clark will go after this. We stick a fork in the Rockets as well and discuss Deestroying's football journey and season ending injury. Finally, we wrap up with our first Ball Knower of the Week competition as Elle and Aaron go head to head to see who got the closest to predicting the upcoming WNBA Draft. Dallas Wings, MAKE THE CALL!!!!!

Our episode this week was recorded late Wednesday night, the same day that Stefon Diggs got traded from the Buffalo Bills to the Houston Texans. We discuss how we feel about the trade as well as give some backstory behind Diggs' separation from Josh Allen. We also get professionally upset about women's hoops and the foul limit that keeps good players out of games. Finally, we're on pennant watch as the MLB season gets under way.

Welcome to the first episode of Aaron and Elle on Kirby Drive! Today we break down the Men's and Women's NCAA tournament, give our reaction to the NFL League Meetings, and speculate on the Rockets' chances of making a splash down the stretch run. Oh yeah and the MLB had its second Opening Day, so that's fun.
