‘The Full Go’ returns as Jason starts the pod by talking about the Team USA-Canada basketball game. He talks about how impressive the performance was, before digging into the Cubs’ sweep against the Orioles. He explains why he understands fans not wanting to buy in to false optimism, the upcoming MLB trade deadline, and Justin Steele’s stellar play. After that, Jason gets into his takeaways from 'Hard Knocks.' He explains what the series says about the Giants, and what Bears fans can look forward to seeing from the series (1:27). After that, Jason talks to Yahoo Sports’ Vincent Goodwill about the Cooper Flagg experience in Las Vegas, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown’s ascension, and the perception of Zach LaVine (25:16).

To wrap, Jason asks the fellas whether they would be OK if their significant other was in a two-person book club (1:01:30).
