The 24-25 Sixers were a bad hang all around. What are the five ways the 25-26 Sixers can be different, and how likely is that to happen? We discuss that, VJ Edgecombe's first pitch at the Phillies, Tyrese Maxey's leadership and CJ's wedding invite list.

We've never been so deep into August. We talk about CJ's engagement to his long time girlfriend Kelly, a Philadelphia sports executive who does not wash his hands when he pees, whether Nick Sirianni would be a better option to coach the Sixers than Nick Nurse, what next offseason may look like if Embiid does not play but the team is better than we'd expect, what sport has the best playoff format, and bring back platonic relationship advice.
