Today’s word of the day is ‘breakout’ as in Spring Training and Spring Breakouts as in the inaugural MLB showcase. Did you watch the games? Did you see the top prospects? (9:10) Who is the Yankees Opening Day starter? Not Gerrit Cole. Not Carlos Rodon. Not Marcus Stroman. (13:10) What is going on with the Kansas City Chiefs? Are the moving? Are they threatening to move? (26:30) Review: Agrylle. (29:12) Penguins heist. No not stolen Penguins! Stole Jaromir Jags bobbleheads! (32:40) Aaron Rodgers was forced to release a statement. Politics! (34:40) NPPOD. (36:35) Nick Saban can’t stop talking. Retired and now he hates college football. NIL is out of control, but is he the right person to tell us?

Charlotte and Amin react to Joel Embiid's 50-point game against the Knicks last night as the 76ers earned their first win in the series. They also offer takes on post-game comments Lebron James and Anthony Davis after they fell to 3-0 in their series against the Denver Nuggets. Then they play Sweep Check, where they rank playoff series on the likelihood that either the Lakers, Suns, and Pelicans will be swept. 

Charlotte and Amin put on high-tech equipment to play Lie Detector, where they judge if Devin Booker, Joe Mazzulla, or Rudy Gobert were fibbing when speaking to the media this week. They also comment on the Frenchmen in this year's draft class and JJ Redick reportedly interviewing for head coach of the Charlotte Hornets.
