July 20, 2020 Rob & Akiva Need a Podcast #93: Rob Needs an NBA Team
Rob & Akiva Need a Podcast #93: Rob Needs an NBA Team
Rob Cesternino and Akiva Wienerkur need a podcast and every week, Rob and Akiva spin a wheel of listener-submitted podcast ideas and whatever the wheel lands on, is what they podcast about next. This week, the wheel landed on “Rob Needs an NBA team” which resulted in Rob and Akiva being joined by Third Wheel Zak Mohamed and J.E. Skeets from the No Dunks podcast to help Rob decide on which NBA team to root for in RAANAP episode 93.
After Rob figures out his new favorite NBA team, they go through the mailbag to hear what new ideas should be added to the wheel and then spin the wheel to see what will be coming next week. If you’re interested in skipping ahead to the mailbag at any point, skip to 2:22:08.
For the link to the spreadsheet that Rob and Akiva use to compile ideas, check it all out here: Rob and Akiva Need a Spreadsheet (compiled by the great Will from America).
