Craig welcomes Washington Post reporter Chelsea Janes to break down the latest developments in the MASN dispute between the Orioles and Nationals. With the Nationals set to be free from MASN after 2025, they’ll have full control over their TV rights for the first time in franchise history.

Janes explains why the change in Orioles ownership was likely a key factor in resolving the long-standing dispute. Craig and Chelsea also explore potential broadcast options for the Nationals post-2025—could Monumental Sports Network be a landing spot? And is Ted Leonsis interested in just the TV rights, buying the team, or both?

Craig welcomes ESPN 49ers beat reporter Nick Wagoner to break down the blockbuster trade sending Deebo Samuel to the Commanders for a fifth-round pick.

Wagoner explains why San Francisco made this move, what led to Deebo’s down year in 2024, and why he expects a potential bounce-back season in Washington. He also reassures fans that locker room concerns are a non-issue—Deebo should be a positive force in the Commanders’ culture.

Plus, Craig and Wagoner discuss the market value for two key 49ers defenders who could be available in free agency: Charvarius Ward and Talanoa Hufanga. Could Washington make a move for one of them next?
