Hema and Sean welcome home resident Canadian Zak Hicken to talk about the Utah Jazz's loss to top-seeded Houston in Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals; why Utah sports had a terrible weekend (Shout out to the Utah Royals FC); and why 'Avengers: Infinity War' is the a Marvel Cinematic Universe masterpiece.

Sean and Hema chat with Utah's godfather of the not-a-rapper scene, James the Mormon, about his upcoming album and why he is donating the proceeds to Operation Underground Railroad, a non-profit that combats child sex slavery. They then take a look at the Utah Jazz's playoff run, the Warriors' opening match of Major League Rugby play at San Diego, and the opening soccer game at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman..

Hema and Sean are joined by KSL Sports producer Zak Hicken to touch on the four major American sports ... at least in Utah: basketball(Utah Jazz in the NBA playoffs), baseball (the first no-hitter of the 2018 MLB season), rugby (Utah Warriors are just days from their inaugural MLR campaign), and soccer (Real Salt Lake's 3-0 win over Colorado)..

Sean and Hema break down the Utah Jazz's playoff-opening loss to the OKC Thunder, when Donovan Mitchell went off for 27 and 10. Sean reveals his fandom of the Vegas Golden Knights, who went up 3-0 on the LA Kings; Hema rocks the Utah Royals women's pro soccer club; and the duo break down James the Mormon's latest track "Buck Wild," out now on iTunes, Spotify and YouTube..

Crack open a cold one with KSL's Sean Walker and Hema Heimuli Jr. as they unwind and dissect the Utah Jazz's playoff clincher against the LA Lakers, Joe Ingles' freeze ray aimed at Gordon Hayward, and Tony Finau's ankle-breaking Masters debut..

Hema, Sean and Zak reveal their ballots for the all-NBA postseason awards, including Rookie of the Year (cough-Donovan-Mitchell) and Defensive Player of the Year (Ruuuuuuuuudyyyyyyy). They also recap BYU football media day, and how Kalani Sitake can turn around the Cougars after a dismal 4-9 season in 2017.

Hema, Zak and Sean are dropping bombs like Jimmer Fredette in TBT, but don't call it a comeback. On today's episode, the guys explain why The Basketball Tournament's new Elam Rule is the greatest thing to hit the game since the 3-point shot, why Donovan Mitchell is the crushing it in Utah's social scene, and why Utah football may (or may not) be an actual contender to win a Pac-12 South title in 2018.
