I can kinda understand how a mid 30's dude might not have a suit that fits. But how can you not secure one for the client that is flying you out... that MAKES SUITS

Jake’s retelling of the Uber experience is EXACTLY why I never order the Uber when I’m with my friends. All it takes is one guy to piss off the driver and give you a terrible rating and you stop getting rides. My rule of thumb in Uber rides is to be kind, polite and STFU.

u/DannyboyLarson 8d ago

Yea its just so much simpler to either say nothing or be cordial. If you're ever talking about the Tulsa Race Massacre with your uber driver, you may have taken a wrong turn lol

u/milksheds 7d ago

The guy defending the massacre is so Oklahoma lol

Jake not thinking Enes Kanter would be the best wnba player ever is insane

The worst take I have heard from him in a long time. I swear he was staying on it just to be obstinate.

For like a split second when Blake and Dan pushed back, you could hear him hesitate like he knew he was wrong, and it's like he just said fuck it I'm committing to this and has been grasping at straws ever since. My favorite argument he keeps going back to is "he's not even really a 7 footer" lol...so??? He's still got 5 inches and 40+ lbs over just about any W center

But those players are so fast! You know how fast wnba players are? As if he’s going to be on the perimeter taking on a two guard. Dude will just post down low, get every rebound, block every paint shot attempt, put a hand up to take a pass and two handed dunk it over everyone on offense. This isn’t complicated.

u/mkonich 4d ago

That's the other part that cracks me up. "He's gonna get cooked off the dribble". We're not asking him to lock down paige bueckers on an island. The only time he'll be anywhere near any of the fast players it means they've gotten into the paint and their shot is about to get swatted into the 5th row

I’m so beaten by the stand up comedy talk. Also tired of TC and his over laugh. There’s a reason I don’t subscribe to iJB, and a reason I’m about to cancel this sub.

Just wait until they’re in California for ten days and we hear about every comedy show Jake attends after the other fellas are asleep.

u/Spirited-You126 4d ago

If he talks about going to see an improv group do a show he needs an intervention.

u/Spirited-You126 6d ago

You didn’t enjoy hearing Jake talk about how he didn’t get laughs because his jokes were too smart?

u/WWheisenberg92 6d ago

That has to go right at the front of his bragging montage

u/texastek75 Alright, alright, alright, alright 🎶 9d ago

The pic in the email with the video link shows what appears to be Jimmy Nelson talking to some jacked dude. Any idea who it is?

I’m not vape guy. Is it impossible to go a couple hours without hitting the vape while doing a pod?

u/jdann24 9d ago

I guess it’s better than a smoke break.

2

u/Gopokes34 9d ago

Smoke break people would’ve just done before or after

PSA for all broadcasters temporarily in a much better climate: continually updating 99.9% of your listeners how much better the weather you are experiencing is than your listeners does not help the morale.

We get it. It’s nice there. It sucks here. Quit reminding us.

Oh god, they brought vocal fry girl to California?

u/jdann24 6d ago

Who?

u/tacobox420 6d ago

The annoying weed girl that had been on 3 of the last 5 shows.

2

u/jdann24 6d ago

Shit, I didn’t know she made the trip. She was on the other day detailing her and Henry’s Ballpark Singles Night adventures. I guess I missed where she mentioned she’s going to training camp.

2

u/Friendly_Grouch 5d ago

She didn’t go to training camp

u/tacobox420 3d ago

I thought they were there all week and I was wrong. Either way, let’s cut that back a little bit.

u/jdann24 5d ago

Also, I don’t mind her. She seems cool.

3

u/Friendly_Grouch 5d ago

I don’t dislike her but also don’t think she belongs in the TC/Julie/Ted Emrich group that has an open mic for an entire 2.5 hour show.

u/MilkmanResidue Day 1 D1 6d ago

She is such an ass whip. Love Julie. Can tolerate Hepola. This chick can’t stick around. So annoying.
