Relatively Speaking Podcast

The Relatively Speaking Podcast is back and better than ever. In fact, you can ask anybody about the return of the Relatively Speaking Podcast, and you know what they would tell you? “The Relatively Speaking Podcast is back and better than ever.”

This is factual. Seriously ... just ask someone.

On this edition of the show, the guys continue to touch on basketball-related subjects even though no games are being played. Also on this episode, Jared and Joseph do their first true segment on the UFC.

To start this show, Joseph opines about better weather to cut grass with and Jared says he is a liar. Jared discusses if holding some infants over the weekend makes him want to have a baby. As always, riveting stuff.

Jon Jones won over the weekend. Good or bad?Do we trust him to stay eligible?Are the guys excited for a possible Jon Jones-Brock Lesnar fight?Does Jared or Joseph know a singular MMA term?

Then it is off to discuss The BIG3.

Allen Iverson no-showed an event and... haha.Has this been a complete disaster?Is The BIG3 the feds?Will it even be back next year?

The show ends with Absurd Questions.

Joseph asks about zombies, vampires and mummies. Jared asked something as well, but people always forget what he asks because they are still recovering from him pondering if he'd rather die by drowning or fire.

You can follow Jared on the mean streets of Twitter @JMintzHoops.

The other guy is over @JosephNardone.

On this edition of the podcast, the guys have a very special guest lined up. Mirin Fader -- of the OC Register, Bleacher Report Magazine, SLAM, and others -- joins the show.

Before our interview with one of the best long form writers on the planet, Jared and Joseph begin the show by discussing some of the weirder things in life. Important subjects such as: What are the two doing today? Bad jokes! What are the weekend plans! Riveting stuff as always.

Per Relatively Speaking Podcast law, the interview starts with five rabid fire questions.

Find out what Mirin thinks of the chances of whales and humans living side-by-side. She also discusses her love of pandas. Jared claims an athlete as a New Yorker, even though she is a native of a town a few thousand miles away. This edition of rabid fire questions was very legitimate.

As for the real part of the interview: Mirin discusses her journey as a sports writer; what she did prior to writing; what inspires her; the state of the industry; breaking through glass ceilings; and so much more.

Mirin was easily one of the podcast's best and most enlightening guests. 

One of the last things touched on was Mirin's latest feature for Bleacher Report. It was on the "The real first family of hoops." It is on the Ogwumike sisters and you should read that wonderful piece right here.

The show ends as it often does, with Absurd Questions.

Joseph asks: If you can reboot or take over a TV show from a creative position, which one would it be and why?

Jared asks: How would you prefer to die... drowning or in a fire?

The Relatively Speaking Podcast returns with the fury of 1,000 suns. It also returns just in time to discuss the latest happenings in the world of sports. If you want to have a good time and also gain insight, there isn't a better place to do it than by listening to the Relatively Speaking Podcast.

For the first time in a long time, the podcast does not start on the morbid side. Instead, we find out that Jared is sick as a dog and that Joseph likes his new lawnmower so much that he cut his grass twice this weekend. Really riveting and important stuff, to be honest.

As for actual things talked about on the Relatively Speaking Podcast:

Kyrie Irving has reportedly asked for a trade.Should the Cleveland Cavaliers oblige?Is Irving a number-one type of talent?What does this mean for LeBron James?What is a reasonable offer for Kyrie Irving?Should the New York Knicks pull the trigger on this?

Then it is off to fan favorite segment, Things On Our Mind, where Joseph discusses Law & Order without regard for the human spirit. Jared hates the franchise for some reason.

Absurd Questions closes this edition of the podcast.

Jared asks about what college alumni team would win The Basketball Tournament.Joseph wants to know what we want to hear (your) God say to us when/if we get to heaven.

?The Relatively Speaking Podcast is now officially 101 episodes deep. If you had a time machine, traveled back to the very first show, there is no doubt you saw this coming. In fact, you can ask anybody about the first edition of the Relatively Speaking Podcast, and you know what they would tell you? "This is for sure going to last at least 101 episodes."

Facts only.

First thing is first, we want to thank again Matt Moore for being our guest on the 100th episode of the show. He was great. However, because we had him on to talk life after death and the NBA, we were unable to do a fancy celebration episode.

For regular fans, think of this edition of the Relatively Speaking Podcast as one where we look back on our best moments and workshop some ideas -- as well as ask you guys for more feedback as to what you like and hate about the show.

For new listeners, consider this your soft welcome to the show. We explain some of the inside jokes, how we got here, and the general origin story of this entire debacle that is certainly the greatest (barely about) sports podcast on the planet.

The show does end with its usual Friday AMA segment.

No matter who you are or what you do, this is an edition of the show you can tell your grandchildren about in a decade... or something.

Thanks to all for listening. Here is to 101 more episodes and 2,034,343 more bad dad jokes!

The other loser is over yonder @JosephNardone.

This is a very special edition of the Relatively Speaking Podcast. Not only is Matt Moore, of CBS fame, a guest on this episode, but it is the 100th show. Thank you to everyone who has been around for the wild ride, bad jokes and iffy sports takes.

By law of having a guest on, the Relatively Speaking Podcast begins by asking Moore five random questions. In a random question segment first, there was a followup to something asked.

Things not only get interesting, but Matt drops some really incredible philosophical ideas on our craniums by way of our ear canals.

After the tomfoolery is out of the way, there's even more shenanigans, but within the realm of basketball.

What is happening with the Lonzo Ball hype?

The rookies that are worth keeping an eye on?

Did any team actually close the gap on the Golden State Warriors and/or Cleveland Cavaliers?

Is the banana boat thing an actual thing or is it a figment of our creative imaginations?

What's next for LeBron James if Dan Gilbert Dan Gilberts all over himself?

What team in the Western Conference is going to make a huge jump next season?

Of course, some Denver Nuggets conversation.

Following some insightful basketball conversations, the show ends as it always does on Monday, with Absurd Questions.

This is a rather violence-heavy edition of Absurd Questions. Listen at your own risk. Also, find out who Matt wants to punch... kind of.

You can follow Matt on Twitter at both @HPbasketball and @MattMooreCBS.

Jared can be followed over yonder @JMintzHoops.

As for the loser guy, he's @JosephNardone.
