"Buh-duh-da-da-da-rah-rah-duh-duh-dun-dun-dun-rap-doo-bow" Yeah, we should probably get to Dan's New York Knicks winning Game 2 over the Cleveland Cavaliers, but Zaslow is offended that the crew (rightfully) accused him of being a Dave Matthews Band fan.

A legend, point blank period. Tony Hawk brought skateboarding to the mainstream, defined the sport, and made it accessible to thousands of kids through his charity work. And, not to mention, he stars in one of the most successful gaming franchises of all time (Tony Hawk's Pro Skater). Tony takes Dan through his upbringing, from being a hyperactive kid who just needed to get his energy out, to becoming one of the best skateboarders alive when he was only a teenager. He also explains what it was like when skating fell out of vogue in the 90s and he fell on tough times… and then boomed back into popularity a few years later. Dan also gets a rundown of all Tony’s injuries over his entire career - including the worst one, a broken pelvis. They also talk about aging and finding joy in a body that doesn’t work quite the way it used to.

The 2026 NFL schedule is here, and it's time to admit it: this is a total scam. We knew the games months ago, and "strength of schedule" is just a guess based on a season that’s already over. Yet, here we are, reading every headline just to plan our November. If we’re going to waste our time on nonsense, let’s at least make it interesting nonsense.

For decades, Ari Shaffir has brought the best stories in comedy to light. Coming from a deeply religious upbringing, Ari’s wild and raunchy path in comedy seems about as far away from seminary as anyone can get. Ari speaks to Dan about his time in the industry and the liberation that comedy provided him after leaving his orthodox Jewish upbringing. Ari talks about what inspired him to bring the best voices in comedy together, to tell their real stories that they couldn’t tell anywhere else. He also details his process making his stand-up special “Jew,” traveling the world honing his material (and realizing that, even after years of religious study, he got some details about the Torah wrong). And, of course, it wouldn’t be a conversation with Ari Shaffir if he and Dan didn’t take a little dive into the world of psychedelics. Ari’s special, “Jew,” is available now on Netflix and watch his hilarious live storytelling show, “The End”, from YMH Studios.

As a result, Mike has unique expertise to offer from Canes Spring Camp, Jeremy shows off his linguistic skills, and Tony is on a post-Easter kindness spree. Today's cast: Dan, Zaslow, Roy, Jeremy, Mike, and Tony. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

He also delivers eloquent takes on the NBA's need for Adam Silver's intervention, the three biggest storylines in basketball this season, Michael Malone's decision to choose college over the pros, and the show's popularity, but the crew is too distracted by Greg's breathing to react to any of it.
