Another blown playoff lead by Chris Paul. Should the Sixers start the rebuild before it’s too late? The Heat still has zero chance to win the title and more!

I talk about my thoughts on buying a gun or not.

The most hated needed store there is. Did you know you don’t have to show your receipt??? Why are they always crowded?

I talk about how Nikola Jokic won MVP and how the voting system needs to be changed. I also talk about how this will affect Embiid’s play versus the Miami Heat.

I talk about Kevin Duran’s legacy after getting swept by the Boston Celtics. How good is he? Will he win a title again? Did he pick the right teammate in Kyrie?

I give my MVP picks and suggestions to change the voting process. Also my playoff predictions and the matchups I want to see the most.

My sister died on April 10, 2017. In this episode I talk the maturation of our relationship. My earliest memories. She went from being the sibling I was least closest to. To the one I loved and admired the most.

It’s a motivational podcast to keep going despite struggles because once your successful people forget about your struggle. Of course I give a Jay-Z example of this lol.

I talk about the fire t levels of life and how much money a person makes is different my circumstances.
