We Started Talking NBA... Then This Happened | Phone Home

The boys are back for Episode 65! We recap the 4th (RIP to Smooth's $72 brisket 🪦), break down the wild NBA offseason — Jaylen Brown to the Sixers, LaMelo to the Wolves, Ja to Portland, Giannis to the Heat — and get into whether private equity ownership is changing what winning even means.

Then it gets real: the great debate — $400 million or 7 championships? — turns into the most honest conversation we've had on how we actually handle stress: therapy, faith, journaling, crying on the yoga mat, and forgiving yourself. We close with Bryan Johnson vs. the old Italian man and what living long is even for.
