(00:00-28:03) – The Ride with JMV opens on a Tuesday with JMV taking a quick dive into the Pacers matchup on the road tonight in Oklahoma City to take on the Thunder, what kind of head coach he thinks that the Indianapolis Colts need to go after with their current roster construction, and how Butler is a difficult watch right now with another blowout loss in Big East competition.

(28:03-42:14) – JMV opens the phone lines for the first time today with someone who still believes in Chris Ballard because he has been able to find talent when he absolutely needed to, another caller that compares how Chris Ballard’s vision of roster construction doesn’t match up to Jim Irsay’s, and another caller states that Jim Harbaugh should be the only real candidate for the Indianapolis Colts head coach.       

(42:14-45:15) – The first hour of today’s show concludes with a caller disagreeing with JMV and the last caller saying that Harbaugh wouldn’t be interested in coming to Indianapolis with the current roster.

(45:15-1:16:11) – One half of Kevin & Query in Kevin Bowen joins JMV to rank who his top three candidates are for the head coach opening for the Indianapolis Colts, who he compares Giants Defensive Coordinator Wink Martindale to, why he would be interested in Giants OC Mike Kafka, and how Irsay/Ballard are going to have to believe in a candidate’s resume that may or not be there when fans are going to love and hate the next head coach.

(1:16:11-1:23:57) – After his conversation with KB, JMV admits why he really likes Dan Quinn as the next head coach for the Indianapolis Colts, responds to some tweets/emails ahead of tonight’s Pacers/Thunder game pertaining to the Myles Turner contract situation, and why the Pacers can’t shake up their roster with how it’s all meshing together right now.

(1:23:57-1:26:36) – JMV rounds out the second hour of the show by asking producer Eddie Garrison if he remembers any phone numbers like people used to back in the day.

(1:26:36-1:56:19) – Setting the Pace’s Alex Golden joins JMV on a Wednesday to share his thoughts on whether Andrew Nembhard has started to hit his rookie wall that occasionally happens with first year NBA players, why he still thinks the Pacers will be sellers as the trade deadline approaches instead of buying to improve their roster, and if the Pacers should hold off to trading Buddy Hield until the offseason compared to the trade deadline.

(1:56:19-2:05:50) – The Cincinnati Reds announced who will be on the tour this year with only one stop in Indiana, so JMV and producer Eddie Garrison reminisce some of their memories attending Reds Caravan along with how bad they expect their Reds to be this season.

(2:05:50-2:08:10) – JMV closes out today’s show by reminding people why they can’t compare the Reds to the Moneyball Oakland Athletics.
