We are back in 2025 with a new format and the same depth and conversation you expect from us!

In this episode, we discuss a fairly viral clip that left us scratching our heads. Mick Cronin, head coach of the UCLA Men's Basketball team, took his frustrations with his team to the media in a post game press conference. Here's the clip (it's in the episode as well): https://www.instagram.com/reel/DEkeu4cRZ2Q/

Is he okay? Why, in 2025, do we think this is acceptable at all? The comments on the post are certainly interesting, as well, and relatively indicative of where we are and why we do what we do.

Let us know your thoughts on this in the comments, and feel free to reach out on social media or via email, as well!
