We sat down with the infamous Miami Dolphins hopeful, Kyle Ulbrich. Kyle has been outside of the Dolphins' training camp this offseason with signs, coffee and sometimes donuts in search of a chance on the field. Finishing his Middle Tennessee State University career on the Ray Guy Awards Rays 8 List, First Team All-Conference USA, and the Bleacher Report All-Bowl Team. He had one of the most historic punter performances in college history in his last game with MTSU. This was a great chat with a young man who is focused, motivated and confident to get a chance--he 100% deserves it.

We recorded this beautiful, quarter century episode on one of the most patriotic days of the year: Memorial Day. You know who isn't patriotic? The Boston Celtics. You know who isn't American? Luka Doncic. You know who is more patriotic and a more deserving NBA Champion for the 2024 season? The Dallas Mavs. Yes, Luka will hoist the NBA trophy over the heads of disarrayed Boston fans this year, just wait and watch. Besides spewing our venom towards the Boston region, John went off on Jimmy Butler and we still don't think Tua is getting a contract this year. Lots of hot takes and controversial moments for our FBI agents to decipher in this episode--we hope you enjoy! God bless America. P.S.

Juan and John have Anthony Lopez of the Marlins Network on the show to discuss the start of the MLB season and what to expect from the Miami Marlins.
