    Jun 19 2026
    The World Cup is finally here, and we're diving headfirst into the biggest storylines with guest, Connor Willey. If Argentina lifts the trophy, does Lionel Messi officially become the unquestioned GOAT of sports? We break down the legacy implications, the three biggest keys for Team USA against Australia, and whether anything less than a competitive quarterfinal appearance would be a disappointment for the Americans. Then it's time for a loaded edition of Way or No Way featuring bold World Cup predictions: Messi's goal total, Spain's group-stage fate, a potential first-time champion, Golden Boot sleepers, hydration breaks, African nations making a deep run, and whether a goalkeeper can take home the Golden Ball. In the NBA, we play "Can We Fix It?" with the Lakers and outline the moves needed to get Los Angeles back into title contention. Plus, we unveil the annual Stripe Sports 4-Team NBA Mega Trade featuring Anthony Davis, Trae Young, Brandon Ingram, Tyler Herro and more—and debate which front office hangs up first. Finally, we head to the NFL for a wide receiver duo draft featuring some of the league's biggest stars before evaluating two of the most ridiculous fantasy football formats ever created: The House of the Dragon League and The Love Island League. Trust us, these rules are completely insane. Messi. Mega trades. Fantasy football anarchy. Let's ride. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
