55 minutes

Mike Golic Sr and Gojo check in on Brandon after his Lakers get swept by the Nuggets in the Western Conference Finals (02:00) before giving Denver all the love and respect they deserve to advance to their franchises’ first Finals appearance.

(07:30) - Gojo explains why this postseason exit for the Lakers may be a net positive for LeBron James and his NBA legacy.

(12:04) - After the Nuggets' love is out of the way, Mike Jr and Mike Sr discuss LeBron James' cryptic hints towards retirement. Gojo asks his Dad if he believes LeBron James actually retire from basketball (16:55) before telling us why LBJ's retirement talk is a leverage play to make sure the Lakers retool and get Kyrie in the offseason. Golic Sr says blowing up this team for Kyrie is the last thing Los Angeles needs.

(28:05) ESPN College Football writer David Hale joins the show! After ranking all 133 FBS QB situations in tiers, Gojo and Golic Sr demanded an explanation for ranking Notre Dame’s QB Sam Hartman in Tier 4.
