Summary

Hello! It's the podcast that's firmly pro-puppy, but anti-puppies-as-a-PR-shield. Today, Katie and the Casualties discuss Boomer Esiason's show coming to SiriusXM and whether Isabella can promise a safe work environment, before getting into LeBron James going to the 76ers, how the Knicks may have inspired the choice, LeBron's upcoming commute from NYC to Philly, playing against Bronny, and Chris' evaluation of all the reasons why this might not work out for the 76ers. Then, the team breaks down the WNBA All-Star Game in Chicago, Cathy Engelbert still not quite having it all together logistically, Obama surprising the All-Stars, Azzi Fudd, the three-point contest, and the controversy around it, Jonquel Jones' MPV, Dominique Malonga's dunk, and the ethics of dunk farming, and the piping hot tea of DiJonai Carrington, NaLyssa Smith, cheating accusations, and a Threads post that probably felt like a great idea at the time, the AUSL championship, Mike Lombardi's administrative leave and Mike Lombardi's questionable Instagram repost history, Tony Romo's OWI, Kyle Shanahan's accident, Team Barstool losing 543-0 in Family Feud, the Red Sox making the biggest trade of the weekend, Shohei Ohtani getting spiked, Donald Trump talking sports with a trio of making up facts about Babe Ruth, trash talking the Mets, and making the least convincing argument possible for the greatest basketball player of all time, and a round of "Let's Tell-a Isabella", telling her the story of Manti Te'o's college girlfriend in real time. And Katie and the Casualties wrap with a curse broken in Ireland, and a look ahead at what to watch in sports this week.
