DC’s Mike James and Mollie Ames discuss:
All terrestrial segments were recorded live on March 6th (Day 65 of 2021), and all podcast segments were recorded live on March 9th (Day 68 of 2021)
- Part 1 of 3 of the Podcast only content – The only thing proven to be worse than billionaires in this world is British Royalty, and yet no matter how many times over this fact is proven, people still care about it way too much. Plus, all praise the glorious display of the female nipple (and really hoping all the lizard brain dickholes out there don't ruin it for everyone)
- Terrestrial: Hour 1 (begins around 0:25:00)
- The NBA All-Star Weekend is easily criticized but when the players themselves want nothing to do with it you have to be even more critical over why they're even doing it in the first place.
- Approaching the trade deadline the Cavs are not only making clear the players they're willing to trade, but also who the core four players are going forward. And we couldn't be more happy that the Cavs core has grown to include four players.
- Recognizing something interesting that all 3 CLE teams have in common at the moment, which may be the first time ever that it's actually a thing.
- Part 2 of 3 of the Podcast only content – Texas University digs deep into the historical record of its "Eyes Of Texas" school song and finds out the song may not actually be racist after all, however, everyone who performed it at the school for over 60 years at the University (aka Texans) were definitely HUGE racists (begins around 1:22:00)
- Lachlan MacKinnon’s ‘Best of Edition’ Let Me Tell You A Story: “Temple Of Doom” (begins around 1:34:00)
- Terrestrial: Hour 2 (begins around 1:38:00)
- The Beachland Ballroom turned 21 over the weekend and the fact that they're still around another year means CLE still being cool is also going to survive this pandemic.
- The Curious Case Of Baker Mayfield.
- 'Dick Pick Mick' and the problem with him being unfaithful is not the real story here, and the we really need to be focusing on the sexual harassment in the work place issues where this story broke in the first place.
- Part 3 of 3 of the Podcast only content – Mollie’s Weekly Reports... (begins around 2:37:00)
- Terrestrial: Hour 3 (begins around 2:58)
- With 'Coming To America 2' a new bar is set for film sequels no one ever asked for.
- Mollie’s Weekly Reports, terrestrial edition!
