Returning to the studio this week, the Pod got back to business and recorded a clean audio file for our beloved listeners! We recapped our recent road trip into The District, and brought in our D.C. affiliate, Evan Tucker (@A_Nice_Boulder), to dive into the Wizard weeds. Afterwards, we reviewed the NBA's waiver wire to see if any transactions moved the needle, and reflected on some pre-All Star Break storylines that we missed. Then we opened up the mailbag, highlighted this week's best and worst of basketball internet, analyzed some data, and refreshed the Trust Index.  

We shared all the feels this week over a few important issues in the news, but one that hit us all hard this week was the tragedy in  Parkland, Florida. We encourage all of our listeners to help out the victims and their families by donating to the Broward Education Foundation's fundraiser, or contacting your local, state, and federal representatives to advocate an end to gun violence in America.

You can help out the show by sending your questions and comments to our mailbag at [email protected], sliding into @ShotTakes's DMs, or leaving us a five star review on your podcast platform! As always, you can donate to the Pod (e.g., basketball tickets, adult beverages, new audio equipment, t-shirts) which will make you a featured episode sponsor and come along with some other cool perks.
