"I am my ancestors' wildest dream." Governor Wes Moore wants to fight for the future of this country because he is the product of generational sacrifices made in pursuit of the American dream. The 63rd Governor of Maryland sits down with Dan Le Batard for a deeply personal conversation about the moments that shaped his life and leadership. After losing his father at just three years old and growing up under the watch of a fiercely determined single mother, he struggled to find direction—until military school changed everything. He reflects on witnessing war up close and why it left him deeply skeptical of it, while leading the country to do far more for the soldiers and families who carry its scars. He also recounts the moment he was disinvited by President Trump from the National Governors Association Dinner at the White House—and weighs in on the question many have asked: is Trump a racist?

Dave Dameshek opens the show by answering the question: which QB draft class is the best in the history of people. Then Carmen Vitali and JD Bunkis join the show to talk about all the latest moves of the 2026 NFL trade. They get past the headlines and into why these teams make the decisions they do.

Dave then uses a fact about Patriot fans (how they lament more than any other football fans and will whine about Drake Maye's injury for the rest of time) as a way chat about the gold medal hockey game. Would Canada have won if they put Sidney Crosby on the ice? The answer touches on the racial makeup of Canada and why French Canadians aren't pulling their weight in the goal. Yes, we go there.

Sean McDermott fired! Can the timing be worse? John Harbaugh and Kevin Stefanski just signed with the Giants and Falcons. Oops? And while everyone is sad today for Josh Allen no one has shed a tear for CJ Stroud. Is it because he tried to big bro Caleb Williams? Maybe. Meanwhile, there’s tough and then there’s Bo Nix making a throw after his bone snapped. The hashtag #winitforbo has become a rallying cry for the Broncos. Speaking of cry, the Chicago fans had the highest of highs and then a quick fall back to earth. They're still sobbing a day later. We don't blame them either. Then our good friend and former NFL lineman Geoff Schwartz jumps in and gets deep into religion. Yes, religion. He says it’s the key to prep yourself for the violence of a football game. Alleluia!

Mike Tomlin will be gone. Dave said it first. And second. And probably third. But the beat reporter job is tough and while they most likely knew... no one dared tell. But Tomlin leaving obscured a bigger fact: the Steelers played terribly. Enough! Enough Pittsburgh talk! Especially, since we have Rams talk to get to with our longtime friend and former NFL wonderland Maurice Jones-Drew. We got a lot to talk about. How the frigid Chicago air impacts the Rams and Matthew Stafford. How the beautiful weather in Seattle won't impact the Hawks or the 49ers. How the Broncos might want to be scared of Josh Allen and the Bills. How Houston has an offensive problem against the Patriots. We got it all!

"Anybody who sees trauma in life or has experienced it... those things stay with you. And I think that they make us the present version of who we are on whatever journey we're on." One year ago in Los Angeles, Jacob Soboroff watched his childhood home turn to ash amongst the thousands of others in one of the most destructive wildfires in history. But, before he was on the front lines covering the devastation of the Palisades and Eaton fires that killed 31 people and destroyed more than 13,000 homes and properties, he was a young student with absolutely no interest in journalism. Jacob talks to Dan about his journey, from theater student to political staffer to journalist. He shares his experiences finding connection, humanity, and hope in the most hopeless of times - in the aftermath of natural disasters, the horror of watching family separation during the first Trump administration... and his concerns about the administration's current anti-immigration efforts seen in ICE raids terrorizing communities across the country.

We've been thinking this season has been crazy. So what is the craziest thing to learn about if you fell into a coma last New Year's Eve and are just waking up right now? The Chiefs and Lions missed the playoffs. All-Pro Micah Parsons got traded to the Green Bay Packers. Jimmy Kimmel got pulled off the air. Jayden Daniels did zero, but the 2nd year QBs Bo Nix, Drake Maye and Caleb Williams all won their divisions. The Steelers followed up their awful idea of starting Russ Wilson by signing another mercenary. Or the Indiana Hoosiers destroyed the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Rose Bowl.

Dennis Schröder was ice-cold when it mattered most, drilling a game-winning buzzer beater and reminding everyone why he’s one of the most dangerous clutch guards in the NBA.  On this episode of the Alley Oop Basketball Show on DLS Hoops, hosts Juju Gotti and Trysta Krick break down Schröder’s huge night and what his performance means going forward. The conversation doesn’t stop there. The crew dives into the Eastern Conference power struggle, asking the big question every fan is debating right now: Are the New York Knicks legit contenders, or do the Boston Celtics still own the East? With Jalen Brunson dropping an incredible 47 points, the Knicks are making noise — but is it enough to dethrone Boston? Plus, Juju and Trysta take a hard look at Trae Young’s shortcomings, discussing what’s holding him back, how defenses are attacking him, and whether his style of play can actually translate to winning basketball when it matters most. From clutch buzzer beaters to MVP-level performances and uncomfortable truths about star players, this episode has everything NBA fans are arguing about right now. Learn more about your ad choices.

Plus, a whole lot of arms fill out the rest of this hour. In fact, so many arms that JJ Watt might be the fourth smallest guy we interviewed. We may have cracked the code on where Stugotz started his JJ Watt bit, and it may be when he refused to play douche or no douche, forcing us to play cool or not cool instead.
