Uninvited Media Presents: The Play-In Podcast with Atiqa Mohammad and Jerry Jones

Good friends and amazing representatives of the wing NBA fandom that have busy lives but know just enough to be dangerous (and as you'll hear in this episode -- sometimes dead wrong (just wait for Jerry's analysis of Nuggets series...and Jimmy Butler.), Atiqa Mohammad and Jerry Jones are breaking down the first week of the NBA playoffs. We are having a good time talking about our favorite sport during the most exciting time on the calendar: the NBA playoffs. Listen in as Atiqa makes more insightful takes and Jerry talks nonsense, experiences a technical difficulty and outright forgets Jalen Brunson's name).

We're having a darn good time on this one. Kick it with us and enjoy!

- The Play-In Podcast Crew

It's April so you know what that means - it's the NBA Playoffs!!! Well, it's actually the NBA Play-In but hey, we are close enough to the time when the best of the best in the greatest game on Earth compete for the Larry O'Brien trophy.

Atiqa Mohammad and Jerry Jones are diving into the wild week that was the NBA and forecast what we think could happen in the NBA Playoffs. In this episode we are talking about the demise of the Dallas Mavericks, Atiqa's penchant for Fantasy Basketball and what needs to be done about tanking. We also play the game of "Who Did Vince Carter Play For?" and we explore who might be the Gen Z GOATS.

We are having a great time talking basketball. So if you have a chore (or leg day) you've been avoiding, this episode will get you through it.

Let's do this!

Hey Party Crashers, Level Setters and Trailblazers -

In this episode of TrailBlasian, Deth and Jerry are moved by the shootings in Colorado Springs and Charlottesville to get real and vulnerable about how we show up in the world and what the opportunity is for the collective 'we' to foster more empathy and to create a brave space for communal healing.

Our hope is that you will take this journey with us in this one-hour plus conversation.

Thank you for choosing to listen and we hope you'll come back.

Do Good and Be Well.

Yep.  We are just a few days before the midterm elections so we are talking about key races in Georgia and Pennsylvania...but we can't not be on her and not talk about this wave of anti-semitism coming from two of the biggest names in sports and culture - Kyrie and Kanye.

We aren't holding back.  This is classic Deth and Jerry airing grievances in the middle of a crowded bar...except we are just sitting at Deth's dining room table.  If you need a fix of an Asian man and a Black man over 50 howling at the moon over things that matter WE GOT YOU!

Thanks for signing up for our nonsense.

We Love All Five of You.

Sup Level Setters -

In this conversation with social media trend spotter (and my favorite cousin), Emily Brake, we are getting to a ride range of topics including changes in the fashion industry and the role of Tik Tok in ushering in a new era of information gathering (and cooking techniques that seemingly cannot be explained).

We go back in time to explore the impact of The Chicks (formerly Dixie Chicks) and how they not only impacted country music but also served as the first example of what we've come to know as Cancel Culture.  Of course, I couldn't let this conversation end without talking Texas politics and tacos.

Trust me, you want to hear this episode.  It's super informative.

Thank you for your support.  We appreciate ya!

What is up Party Crashers, Level Setters and TrailBlazers!!!

In this episode, which could have been called Grumpy Old BIPOC men, Deth and Jerry have a whole bunch to say about some of the things dominating the news cycle over the past week: the reaction to the passing of Queen Elizabeth the II (and we have somethings to say about a certain billionaire); the ridiculousness of what Gov. Ron DeSantis and the very serious nature of his potentially illegal actions; and then we get even more heated about the Racialization of Fantasy.

We doin' the damn thing.  This is one you will absolutely want to listen to.

Thank you all for joining this crazy ride with us and look for a new episode of Level Set later this week as I talk to my favorite cousin (sorry Shawn) and social media trend spotter Emily Brake.  We are talking trends in fashion and information gathering, as well as the legacy of the Chicks (formerly the Dixie Chicks) as the first modern example of Cancel Culture.

Uninvited Media is committed to giving the people what they want.  Thanks for hanging with us!

Love y'all!

In this conversation with Austin-based competitive tennis player (and friend of the show...and cousin) Shawn Bolton, we cover so much ground and you are in for a treat.  As it is the end of August, early September we must discuss the US Open and the end of the brilliant career of Serena Williams as well as the Big Three of the men's game.  

However it wouldn't be a Level Set conversation if we didn't also explore the inner workings of the minds of our guests.  Shawn discusses his competitive fire, as well as his obsession with different flavors of pickles.  We delve into the 8th Wonder of the World -- Buc-ee's -- and what makes for a great breakfast taco but it wouldn't be a Jerry and Shawn conversation if we didn't talk Game of Thrones.

This is a fun one.

Please rate, review, subscribe and share this episode.  I appreciate ya!

Yo what is up Party Crashers, Trailblazers and Level Setters -

In this episode of Level Set, my friend and co-host of her own podcast 'The Bo Knows Podcast' Ellen Wingenter explore several random conversations, mostly all of them centering around the great state of Colorado.  We are talking pickle ball, politics, sports, Colorado geography, hobby farming...hell, we even talk about the correlation between the largest fire in Colorado history, a cult and an iconic sandwich shop in Lawrence, KS.

Ellen knows a lot about alot and she was gracious enough to dive into these rabbit holes with me.  This conversation is all over the place but i promise you will come away entertained and maybe even more informed about Colorado.

This is a fun one for sure!

Thanks so much for listening.  Please rate, review, subscribe and share with your friends.

What is up Party Crashers, Level Setters and TrailBlazers - In this episode of TrailBlasian, Deth and I are exploring the political dumpster fire that is the Trump fiasco at Mar-a-Lago, Jerry's newfound love for Liz Cheney (yes, i know) and also digging into the firestorm surrounding the Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin.  Sandwiched in-between is a spirited conversation about the NFL ruling to suspend alleged predator DeShaun Watson for 11 games.

It gets heated in this episode but we still find a way to laugh, usually at Jerry's expense.

It's a good one.  Enjoy it.

Also, new Level Set episodes is coming soon.  Apparently talking with people who know things takes some time because they are in such demand but i promise you they are worth the wait.  Until then, i highly recommend checking out the first three conversations so you can be ready for the newest episodes.

Do Good, Be Well.

Sup Party Crashers, Level Setters and Trailblazers -

In this episode, Deth and Jerry are covering multiple angles of Trump's string of really bad luck connected to the seizing of classified information from his 'beautiful' home at Mar-a-Lago.  Jerry does something he hasn't done in a really long time, which is give President Biden some love and Deth makes a recommendation for the GOP on how to popularize their campaign of denial on Trump's actions.

We are having fun while spitting fire the way two armchair gangsters are prone to do.

Enjoy it.  Like, subscribe and comment...we love talking sh*t with y'all!

P.S.  A new episode of Level Set is coming next week!
