Dan Bernstein welcomes Joe Sheehan for a wide-ranging baseball conversation centered on the Cubs’ outlook for 2026. 0:00 Introduction 2:15 Joe Sheehan 26:20 NBA 37:00 Brendan Sorsby 44:00 Rush While expectations on the North Side may be tempered, Sheehan makes the case for optimism—projecting a playoff-caliber team fueled by a rebound in offensive production that could push the Cubs back into contention. The show also recaps a thrilling Game 3 of the NBA Finals, where the Spurs delivered a statement win on the road at Madison Square Garden. With the victory, San Antonio cuts into the Knicks’ series lead, now trailing 2–1 in what’s shaping up to be a dramatic and tightly contested championship battle. Off the court, the conversation turns to a controversial ruling from a Texas judge in the Brendan Sorsby case. Despite strong disagreement with the decision itself, the ultimate outcome leaves room for satisfaction, sparking a thoughtful discussion about fairness and process in sports-related legal matters. Plus, a quick hit on the return of Rush to the touring stage—bringing iconic rock energy back to fans everywhere.
