Highly recommend @bomani_jones interview with @awfulannouncing and @BrandonContes. I was only going to watch for a few minutes before the WNBA Finals but I'm now hooked. Bomani is honest about what happened at High Noon, why he didn't go to Meadowlark and why he moved his pod.

I’ve been asked to do many podcasts and interviews lately, but this one was especially enjoyable thanks to great questions from Brandon Contes. That’s what happens when a host asks intelligent questions, listens and follows up. Thanks, Brandon. Well done. (5th my foot.) 😉

The AA YouTube account has 9,975 subscribers.
Can I get you to subscribe? I need the dopamine + mental health boost of seeing it hit 10k live vs when I'm asleep.
But also, imo we are doing good work, and many of you will enjoy the content!

.@awfulannouncing: “Who is embraced more by Boston sports fans, Bill Simmons or Dave Portnoy?”
Michael Felger: “Portnoy’s on top right now. I’ve always thought Bill Simmons plays the Boston sports fan more than he is a Boston sports fan. Portnoy is more of a Boston guy to me”

Thanks @BrandonContes & @awfulannouncing for the conversation. Long form on my career path, Little Mo, the CBS ➡️ SXM move, and A’s fans: the last 20 minutes are all about your pain. youtu.be/lXQjU5ZesPw?si=1iqz…
I just need to know if Dolan had a private conversation with Isiah Thomas before joining the exit meeting with Leon Rose and Tom Thibodeau
Imagine telling a show that was immensely successful from start to finish for 23 years, that they should have done anything differently

I appreciate @BrandonContes and the @awfulannouncing podcast for letting me talk this out. Brandon asked a number of good Qs that had me thinking about 23 years worth of history in ways I hadn’t before!
