Hour 2 focuses on Joe’s take that the NBA Cup “doesn’t move the needle” for him as the league struggles with effort issues, from a lackluster All-Star Game to LeBron never doing the dunk contest — a spotlight that G-League players have been stealing in recent years. The conversation then pivots to college football, previewing the playoff chaos with JMU and Tulane representing the “little guy” and Ole Miss making the CFP without Lane Kiffin. Joe and Hollywood also praise Brian Hartline, who is juggling finishing his OC duties at Ohio State while preparing to take over as USF head coach, and preview the Dolphins gearing up for Monday Night Football against the Steelers. The hour wraps with Hollywood’s Headlines, covering Troy Aikman being done with NIL, Sydney Sweeney landing the next Sports Illustrated cover, a wild cruise story, and the Wizard of Oz Wicked Witch hat selling for $500K
