Evan & Tiki

The crew is back with another hilarious round of Posted & Toasted, where old social media takes resurface to haunt the station’s biggest personalities. From a controversial 2024 pitch to install snow machines in every NFL dome to a 14-year-old "shady" tweet about Chinese food, no one is safe from the archives including a scientific (and heated) debate over whether "big guys" actually feel the cold more than you think. The fun takes a professional turn as the guys break down the NFL Combine, specifically tackling the mystery of Carson Beck. Is the Miami standout a victim of bad timing, or does a lack of "clutch" moments make him a dangerous first-round gamble? Whether you're here for the draft analysis or the debate over the legality of snow blowing, this segment covers the full spectrum of sports and life.

In this segment, we dive deep into the evolving—and potentially murky—leadership structure of the New York Giants following Joe Schoen’s defensive media session in Indianapolis. As Dawn Aponte steps into a senior role and John Harbaugh’s influence looms large, questions are surfacing about whether the GM has been "marginalized" or if this is truly the collaborative dream team the organization claims it to be. We break down the tension surrounding Schoen’s contract status, the looming "conundrum" of re-signing slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, and why a lack of a third-round pick makes the Giants "open for business" at the number five spot. Plus, we pivot to a heated debate on whether an Olympic Gold Medal carries a "Mickey Mouse" asterisk and why rooting for rival stars in the red, white, and blue feels so complicated for die-hard fans.

The phone lines open up and Jets fans bring the heat: should the Jets go quarterback hunting at the Combine, and do they need to copy the Giants model to finally solve this nightmare?

One caller throws the ultimate curveball, if you could re-draft Tony Romo, is he a first-round pick, and would “Romo-level” competence be enough for this franchise? From there, the debate turns into a full-on Jets identity crisis: swing for upside with Ty Simpson at 16, wait for a later option like Garrett Nussmeier, or punt the whole QB plan to next year’s “loaded” class.

The big tension is obvious. Fans can wait. Coaches and GMs usually cannot. Aaron Glenn and Darren McGee are on a different clock, and the show digs into whether drafting a quarterback is about building the future or protecting jobs.

Plus: Zach Wilson PTSD, why the Combine can fool you, why draft slot changes everything for QBs, and whether a veteran bridge like Kirk Cousins or a wild-card free agent like Malik Willis can keep the season from feeling dead on arrival.

With Evan Roberts out, the spotlight turns to the NFL Combine and the massive quarterback questions facing the Jets and Giants. As GMs, coaches, and prospects descend on Indianapolis, the real action isn’t the 40-yard dash, it’s the behind-the-scenes conversations that could reshape franchises.

The discussion zeroes in on why this week is make-or-break for the Jets’ new regime, the pressure to secure a long-term quarterback, and whether prospects like Ty Simpson are worth a bold first-round gamble. Is drafting a QB about building the franchise… or saving jobs? And how much can a strong combine performance actually change a team’s future?

Plus, a look at how the event itself has evolved into a TV spectacle, why top prospects increasingly skip drills, and what truly matters when evaluating quarterbacks in today’s NFL. For a team desperate for upside, standing still may not be an option.

It’s a blizzard Monday in New York, and Evan Roberts is already fed up with the snow, but the storm gets pushed aside when Team USA shocks Canada and wins hockey gold in a heart stopping overtime thriller, sealed by a Jack Hughes winner.

Then the arguments explode, and Shaun Morash becomes the lightning rod. Tiki is fully in on the pride, the emotion, and the “USA across the chest” rush. Evan admits the win was incredible, but questions why it fades so fast compared to the months long misery and payoff of being a real fan of your teams. Meanwhile Morash wrestles with the ultimate New York sports fan dilemma: how do you celebrate an American hero when that hero plays for a rival, and does this whole thing feel like a cheap championship?

Plus: Miracle on Ice nostalgia, 2010 USA Canada scars, why Olympic hockey hits different than the WBC, what Olympic baseball in 2028 could become, and callers weighing in with the one question that matters: did this actually feel like a championship, or was it just a great Sunday morning show that you moved on from an hour later?

Evan & Tiki dive into the frenzy of early spring training storylines, pushing back on the nonstop overreactions that come with a handful of February highlights. Is it fair to scrutinize defensive miscues from players learning new positions, or is everyone jumping to conclusions way too fast? The guys debate how much these early reps actually matter and what fans should realistically take from them.

They also address the growing noise surrounding Pete Alonso’s hot start in a new uniform, questioning whether every home run needs to become a referendum on his departure. Plus, Jazz Chisholm’s bold public goals for the season and his eye-popping contract aspirations spark a conversation about what kind of year it would actually take to earn that payday and whether it would make him impossible to keep long term.

After looking dead in the water against Houston, the Knicks flip the switch over the final eight minutes and steal a game they had no business winning, then grind out another victory in Chicago behind Jalen Brunson’s clutch shot making and Karl-Anthony Towns’ strong stretch of play. But the biggest moment might not have happened on the court at all.

Evan and Tiki react to the viral Shaquille O’Neal vs KAT exchange from Inside the NBA, where Shaq bluntly tells Towns that “good isn’t good enough” if the Knicks want a championship. Did KAT miss the point? Does he lack that ruthless edge great teams need from a dominant star? And can New York reach the next level if Brunson remains the only true closer?

The hour also veers into a heated pushback against the growing Jayson Tatum comeback narrative, with Evan arguing the Knicks were firmly in control of that playoff series before Tatum’s injury and shouldn’t have to apologize for winning. Plus, classic WFAN chaos: snowstorm stories, travel nightmares, soccer talk, Olympic hockey passion debates, Mets fan emotions, and an all-time awkward bar tab saga after Evan accidentally Venmos $300 for a bill that wasn’t even close.

It’s part serious Knicks championship talk, part media watchdog, and part pure New York sports radio madness.

The 4th and final hour of Evan & Tiki is packed with strong opinions, sports history, and classic WFAN storytelling. The guys react to comments from Darryl Strawberry criticizing Pete Alonso for leaving the New York Mets for the Baltimore Orioles, sparking debate over loyalty, legacy, and whether the Mets ever really tried to keep him.

A blizzard edition of Evan and Tiki with Shaun recaps the dilemma of Team USA winning gold, plus Evan is angry at the LOL Mets narrative.
