In this episode of Past, Present, Pushback, the crew dives into a wild week in sports and society. We start with the NBA’s opening week and the growing NBA gambling scandal shaking up the league — plus early reactions to the Warriors’ first three games and how the Lakers are struggling without LeBron. Then we move to NFL Week 8, breaking down the biggest 1PM matchups and how the Jets finally grabbed their first win of the season.

AZ unpacks the 11th Amendment, explaining its role in protecting states from federal lawsuits — and why it still sparks debate today. Finally, CDA closes the show with a raw and emotional discussion on repairing broken relationships within families, exploring how pride, silence, and distance can destroy bonds — and what it really takes to rebuild them.

🎧 Tune in for real talk, real lessons, and real pushback.
