  • Knicks Blowout, NBA Tanking Conspiracies & Ricky Saints’ Silent SmackDown Debut

    On this sunny spring episode, Nick Angelo is in a great mood after the Knicks closed out the Hawks by 51 points, then pulls on the tinfoil hat to explain why he thinks the NBA’s anti-tanking push is really about the betting lines. He breaks down the first-round playoff bracket, mourns his Penguins’ overtime exit to the Flyers, cheers on the Sabres, and makes his case for hockey and baseball’s “unwritten rules.”

    Nick also takes aim at plans to expand the NCAA tournament, shares why an emotional NFL Draft moment has him worried about where NIL money is taking college sports, and closes with pro wrestling: Ricky Saints’ quiet SmackDown call-up, Gunther vs. Cody heading into Backlash, the Roman Reigns–Jacob Fatu family saga, and his frustration with unskippable ads on Raw. Plus fresh music breaks, including new Kneecap, pop punk and indie hip-hop.
