Starting point is 00:01:43 Just never forget that. All those trophies. I give so many good takes here. I give hot takes before Mina Kimes gives them. I give them before Diana gives them. And then whenever Diana or Mina Kahn says them, that's when Dan reacts. Oh, my goodness. I've never heard someone.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Zaz says the bills are dead? How in the, no one else outside of media is saying these things? Well, I think it's because I look like a hood all the time. And I don't wear this sweet blazer. So moving forward, I'm going to always wear a sweet blazer here. And you can call me Julian G, not jujugadi. I know you don't want to quote that. Oh, said first by juju-gat.
Starting point is 00:02:20 That's so ghetto. Get that out of here. Julian G says the bills were done last year and they will be done moving forward. sorry for brain oh no i i i think this is i think this is an interesting tack to take juju i'm sorry julian g yes sir yes sir absolutely oh this thing right here oh this is just a confetti that fell out of the sky when the unrival league the roses won the championship and i was there covering it sorry about that yeah yeah and this too i was i was in the arena when the celtics won this with my brother and me covering it so just neither here nor there all right so you're showing that you should be treated
Starting point is 00:02:57 Julian G should be treated and respected as a legit journalist. Yes, Dan don't even stick around for these anymore. Do you think if me and the comms came on the show, Dan would get his ass up and go eat a sandwich? Hell no, I got to do better. I got more work to do. Now, Julian G, I do want to ask you, had you been wearing a suit and tie in Berlin, do you still think the commissioner came up and dapped you up? 100%.
Starting point is 00:03:22 Not. He would have not have. That's when the ghetto worked out. It paid out. He was like, what's your ghetto ass doing in Berlin? It was a good ghetto day. Juju, we got some Thursday Thunder to do? Oh, yes, we do, sir.
Starting point is 00:03:38 Hit the music, my brother. That's right. It's Thursday Thunder, and it's presented by Draft Kings. Draft Kings. The crown is yours. Juju, what we got? Tonight, we got a Thursday night football matchup that is sure to bore everyone watching.
Starting point is 00:03:57 But I'm going to give you a little reason to watch and stay tuned tonight. First leg, Breece Hall. He will get 16 carries tonight. Lock it in. They have nothing else. He's going to get 16 carries and Justin Fields going to have 73 yards. Lock it in. But don't lock that Justin Fields part in.
Starting point is 00:04:15 That was just me rant. I'm a comedian. Also, don't forget that part. Second leg, Stefan Diggs, will have five catches tonight. Yes, he will. and the last leg, Pop Douglas, DeMario Douglas, we'll get two catches tonight, locking in Thursday Thunder. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Are we going to get two weeks in a row of the garbage on Thursday night? I feel like we're at the point in the season. Like last week was the first one of the season where the Thursday night game looks like a Thursday night game. Right, yeah, so boring. And I feel like tonight is a Justin Fields legacy game, unfortunately, because we didn't get to see him have his incredible wins. on what the one o'clock window the one o'clock slots but everybody's going to be tuned in tonight so if he stinks it up more bad chatter in the locker room juju uh nicola yokic 55 points last night how about that yeah man i'm gonna go ahead and call it right now
Starting point is 00:05:13 nicola yokech MVP no matter what oh no matter what happens MVP of the day oh our MVP of this breaking news julian g reports that nicokech is the 2026, 2025-26 MVP. NBA. Let's go. MVP of the day. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:05:46 So, you know, I mean, Ju-Ju's given, I'm sorry, Julian G. Julian G is giving you the MVP of the season. I can't report that, but I'll tell you, for today if we're going to have a conversation about MVP Nicole Yokic better be in that conversation 55 points last night
Starting point is 00:06:07 he had that one already though all right 18 of 23 from the floor you better start a conversation talking about Nicole Yokic yes sir MVP of the
Starting point is 00:06:25 Julian G, do you worry at all that because the nuggets are so much better, his numbers are going to drop and make him look less attractive even though he's playing better and more easy than he ever has? I don't think so. I think that this year he has a different motivation inside of him.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Like I think that with them going through what they went through last year, all the noise surrounding their locker room, I think that this is a proven year for himself, not necessarily for him in the league. But I think that, dang, okay, not only did we lose to OKC in the playoffs, dang, Shay got the MVP on top of that.
Starting point is 00:07:04 So I think the Joker is coming back for revenge and he won't have no deal with this year. I was going to say, what about the jersey over your left shoulder there? He's playing pretty good this season. Yeah, he's playing pretty good. But he played that well last year, and it was still a debate.
Starting point is 00:07:19 The Joker is playing phenomenal. Like, he's putting up numbers we've never seen before. And as much as Shea's team is doing in the win column, that MVP is just a little different category to me. Second best Canadian in the league, according to Hamia Hockers. Right. Yes, for sure. Also, to salute to Pete Carroll today, that was hats off, great punishment, great execution. The only punishment that was for the audience, though, was the gum churn.
Starting point is 00:07:48 Holy hell. We couldn't stand it. But it was fantastic execution. by you, brother. Juju, were there some chokers last night? Oh, yes, there was, man. Last night, LSU women took on Charlotte. And we never heard of Charlotte.
Starting point is 00:08:07 I don't, I don't ever remember Charlotte. 49ers. Right, coming into the conversation. But before the game, Charlotte took to TikTok and said this right here. Video team, do you got it? Yes, sir. us dancing because LSU is finally going to play some real competition. Oh, and those girls play for Charlotte?
Starting point is 00:08:30 Come on, kids. Yeah. That was before the game. Come on. This was the halftime score. Video team, pull up the halftime score. Oh, come on. 62 to 17.
Starting point is 00:08:43 Real competition. Douglas Wade, Christy. Right. You maims are the jokers of the night, and I salute you. Get well soon. Juju, you got some polls for us today? What do we got going on? Oh, yeah, I got some polls.
Starting point is 00:08:57 They came in late today, and there's only two of them. So I'm going to just go ahead, a quick little news dump right quick. The NBA Showtime crew on Peacock, fantastic. I like what you're doing. I see you, Carmelo. Also, NBA on TNT, it's the exact same show. Let's get over it. It's the same.
Starting point is 00:09:16 I don't see any difference. Zaire Alexander stepping away, maybe retirement. Something's going. on there. The bill signed Miko Hartman like I give a damn. Max B is free. And lastly, the Morris twins say that they would mop the floor with the Yokish brothers saying that those big chest brothers can't move. Talk about squabling. Yeah, squabbling. I mean, hey, I don't know about that one. They don't have to move. They just crush you with their hands. I'm going to say this. I did a heavy investigation of the Yokage brothers during the finals in 2023. One of them is a lot bigger than the
Starting point is 00:09:48 other one. But that big one is the biggest of the biggest. But then the big one is scary. But then But the other one is like, okay, you're just tall. But the big one, can the big one scratch his back, though? It's the problem. That would be a hell of a prelim for the Jake Paul fight. Right. Also, the listener, the YouTube listener of the day, Wayne W., I see you, brother. He promised to be nicer to negative people.
Starting point is 00:10:10 I appreciate that, brother. And also, if you're going through something out there, know that weeping may endure for a night, but joy is going to come in the morning. Let's get to these posts. Would Spielberg ever make a movie where the wind kills you? 62% of the audience says, yes. What?
Starting point is 00:10:27 Hello. And the last poll, should Notre Dame have the poop emoji on their helmets? 75% of the audience says, yes, they should. And those are your polls. Good job, Julian G. Thank you so much, brothers.
