Christopher Edward Martin (born March 21, 1966), better known by his stage name DJ Premier (also known as Preem, Premo, or Primo), is an American record producer and DJ, and was half of the hip hop duo Gang Starr—alongside the emcee Guru—and form half of the hip hop duo PRhyme, together with Royce Da 5'9".

For its 20th-anniversary issue in 2008, The Source selected DJ Premier for its list of the 20 greatest producers in the magazine's 20-year history. He also made the finals in Vibe magazine's 2010 search for the greatest hip hop producer of all time—he finished second after Dr. Dre received 62 percent of the votes.

DJ Premier hosts a weekly two-hour show, Live From HeadQCourterz, on Sirius Satellite Radio's Hip-Hop Nation every Friday.

On this week's episode, James Karst of the Times-Picaynue joins us as well as Ian McNulty from the New Orleans Advocate. Plus Saints minicamp recap and Pelican draft preview

You know me: I’m an NBA Blogger/writer (The No-Look Pass!) but I will cover a lot of things other than basketball in my podcast. Because that is me. I have a lot of interests.

Glenn Moore (@GlennMooreCLE), the host of the This Is Awesome Wrestling Show, stops by to talk WWE. We recap the WWE Network special, Elimination Chamber, and we gush about Kevin Owens. Also, we went briefly over his NBA Finals prediction.

As usual, we have Story Time With Adam Jacobi. Follow him on Twitter at @adam_jacobi and find his sports work at Black Heart Gold Pants.

And I had a little commentary about the former Bruce Jenner, who is now known as Cailtyn Jenner.

Thank you for the listen. It really means a lot to me.

You all know me from The No-Look Pass. Yup, I am an NBA blogger/writer at large but this podcast is mostly for my interests. There will still be a lot of basketball talk but I wanted to cover other genres as well.

Holland Wong (@hollandazed) and Mel Baltazar (@djmelvis) of the wrestling/sneakers podcast, Kicks and Kickouts, stop by to talk mostly WWE. We go over character depth (especially John Cena), what’s wrong with WWE, and which wrestlers we want to meet. We also go back to our past anime convention life and embrace our overall geekiness. Basically, our message is… don’t be afraid of telling everyone who you are and what you like.

Enjoy the show, peeps!

Hey, party people. It’s the 24th episode of the Rey-Rey Is Fundamental (@ReyReyIsFun) podcast, part of the Happy Hour Network.

You guys know me as an NBA blogger/writer (you know The No-Look Pass). There is a lot of NBA talk in this podcast but I also go over other interests myself or whatever is hot at the moment.

E.J. Christian (@EJChristian7) of the Earnestly Speaking Podcast and Hot Hot Hoops…

…and Gee Steelio (@GeeSteelio) of the Gee Steelio Sports Show stop by as we talk about Saturday morning programming and the death of the Saturday morning cartoon. We also talk about Saved By The Bell extensively.

Welcome to "The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab", hosted by "The Mad Scientist of Sports" Nick Ficorelli. This is not the average everyday sports show he is bringing to the air waves. "The Mad Scientist" has created his own personal sports lab, and you, the audience, as well as many of his special guests, will be his test subjects. He will throw theories out, and you never know where they will be coming from. He will keep everyone guessing, and he will open his lab to any and all comers. And this time, he is bringing in his top apprentice to help him run the lab - "Stat Boy" Andrew Gluchov, formerly of WTMY 1280AM Sarasota and The Sports Chronicles Radio Network. Be prepared for "mad science" sports talk at its best.

Tonight is another jam-packed episode as we welcome 4 First-Timers into the Lab as "test subjects". At 10pm, we have "The Godfather of Football" Russell Baxter (@BaxFootballGuru) to talk, what else, NFL. At 1030pm, we welcome New York Giants rookie defensive lineman Carlif Taylor, who will tell us his story on the grind to making it to the NFL after a sterling college career. At 1100pm, we welcome from the War Room Sports family, "The Mayor" Christopher Dinkins to talk some MLB and some NBA. And, at 1130pm, we welcome one of the best independent pro wrestlers in the world today, the "Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander, who will speak about his decision to retire after his match on July 12th with Alpha-1 Wrestling in Canada.

The beacons are lit, the experiments are on the chalk board, and the test subjects are at the ready. The Mad Scientist's Sports Lab is now OPEN for business.
