The EWB Podcast

This may not age well - but Warriors end it tonight! James and I talk Wiggins vs Tatum, rotational pieces, Kerr's coaching, and finally how game 6 will be won. 

Also some fun facts about Brian Windhorst and Danny Granger in there.

Enjoy!

Yes I know it's been a while, but there's no way I would sit out a GSW return to the finals. So I've dusted off the mic and called up my boy James! Hear us (unedited) chat about the legacy that's on the line (yes I know that KD was pretty good), the Celtics offensive woes (other than game 1 4th Quarter of course), defensive schemes, and what we should do about Klay. Hope we can roll out a few more during the finals for you guys - it really is a special time! 

Chase Center finally has something to be pumped about!

Apologies to the faithful, after a very long hiatus, the pod is back! The pod hits the restart by addressing the incredible GSW start to the 2021 season! Join us for some throwback discussions on Alliyah, Mookie Blaylock, and Jason Terry before diving into what factors of this new roster have contributed to the success. Is it JP's improvement, or is it the additions of Bjelica and Porter Junior? Finally we wrap it up with a discussion of the Box 1 defense, and how/why it could work against us and why we could implement it now. It's great to be back!

*note - this was recorded before the 1-1 start to the roadtrip. James and I will have even more to chat about next time...

An episode recorded shortly after it was determined the Grizz/Warriors showdown Sunday would be significant! No fancy cuts - just straight to the point.

Join James and I as we talk through our thoughts on the playin format, what the next few days look like for GSW (rest!), discussion about the rotation, and finally predictions for our showdown for play-in seeding against a very young Grizzlies team. Something to get you hyped up Friday before the big showdown!

Jeff Liu is back for some reviews! The episode starts with us talking about how hyped we are for Mortal Kombat, and then at get into the meat of reviewing the first two episodes of Kung Fu. Hear us discuss how this show can work with a CW formula and take this as an opportunity to tackle diverse subjects (10:55), the talents of Tzi Ma and the family dynamics (23:10), a very special Tony corner where we predict his character's role (29:30), and finally our thoughts on how the action sequences will develop within the show (36:30). Enjoy!

*Editor's note: I qualified the Mortal Kombat actors as being Asian Americans - I recognize I am incorrect as Lewis Tan is from England, and Ludi Lin is Canadian. Apologies!

Why would this episode have a picture of Tobias Funke? No reason at all really, other than for the first 30 seconds of the episode!

The Warriors have some interesting decisions to make with Kelly Oubre and James Wiseman, and how much they want to commit to this small ball identify. Join James and me in discussing how we see this season unfolding, and more importantly how to approach the offseason with these two players.

From the dapper photo you can see that the EWB podcast is getting some additional star power! Actor Tony Chung stops in to share his journey, from pursuing his dream of being a singer in Taiwan (9:40), to life as a model in New York City (25:10), and finally the opportunity for him to become a series regular on the CW show "Kung Fu" (37:20). It was awesome to hear Tony reflect on lessons learned in various industries abroad, as well as share insight into some of the series' stars (Olivia Liang's awesomeness and Tzi Ma's wisdom) and the opportunity the show has to address some very relevant issues to the world today.

Whether you're curious about a wide range of industries Tony's been involved with, or you're an old friend that just wants to hear about what he's been up to - check it out!

*small editor's note: Tony had incorrectly referenced Carly Fiorina as the former CEO of EBay during the recording - he told me after the recording he'd meant to say Hewlett Packard!

Will this happen a third time?

James and I check in on the first 1/4 of this nba season - Steph MVP chatter, rotation challenges, James Wiseman, and finally where we picture this team ending up record wise. Enjoy!

Jeff and Alex join me for an incredibly fun podcast/adventure experience - Dani and Bill of Escape This Podcast were kind enough to guide us in an audio escape experience!

The episode starts with a brief intro of what their podcast is all about, before transitioning into an escape game akin to the experiences they host on their pod. It's a fairly long episode but certainly a fun one - join us for this very innovative puzzle solving experience! And certainly keep your eyes/ears open, as this is part of a beginning of a larger experience for yours truly!

*note if you want the visual clue for the puzzle that took us about 3 days to solve, you can find it here. 

At least we don't have to watch this roster again.

A raw uncut episode ahead of the season opener! Join James and I as we discuss the addition of Oubre, the roles of Wiggins/Wiseman/Green, the importance of Steph, pick and roll strategy, and finally a bit of why the Linsanity Exhibit 10 never worked out. We wrap this up with some predictions for the season - find out if we think we're going to be world champs again! 

Hint - that's a no.

Go Dubs!
