Today, the Casualties welcome Katie and Chris back to America and discuss Noah Kahan's record-stomping weekend in Philly, Katie's trip to France in the name of marketing and her preview of "Hooters: The Movie", Chris' trip to Australia and his daughter's embrace of Carlton Football, the week in the World Cup, Australia's upcoming showdown with Egypt, Team USA's match against Bosnia and a lesson in Bosnian geography for all of us, Mbappe and Messi looking dominant, Ronaldo looking slightly cooked, the underdog story of Cabo Verde, the under-crotch view of the 85-foot-tall Messi statue in Argentina, the legendary Messi-Yamal photo, Doctor Congo, the end of the Scotland-Boston marriage, and Team Uruguay canceling its flight, Chris' take on a month's worth of NBA stories that he had to sit out, Isabella's trip to the Knicks parade, Giannis going to the Heat, LaMelo Ball going to the Wolves, Dusty May going to the Mavericks, no one interesting going to the NBA Draft, the Mets firing Carlos Mendoza, dogs having their day in baseball and an organization finally handling Pride Night well, Justin Bieber and a giant Moldovan taking over the NHL Draft, and Jake Paul's next career move and the pro sports we're convinced we could play with a year's training. Then Chris wraps the show with a look at What to Watch in sports this weekend.
