In the recent “ten good minutes” on YouTube, Ryen describes Embiid’s game starting at around the 18 minute mark. It’s the only time I’ve ever heard an nba media member describe what they’re actually seeing on the court as opposed to sugar coating it to protect the player and his fans. Everyone else pretends that Embiid draws a lot of fouls because he’s strong and skilled and driving to the rim and the only way to guard him is to foul him, like Shaq or something. It makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Ryen points out that Embiid has no intention of actually scoring on any of the fouls he drew, but is instead just foul baiting. He also points out that this ultimately throws off the rhythm of his own teammates.

Good to have someone out there who isn’t afraid to hurt some feelings to describe the truth.

“Can we do the thing where we stop pretending the Tin Man, Scarecrow & Lion were these misunderstood heroes? Yeah, I get it. I understand symbolism. But there’s also a point where we can acknowledge Dorothy somehow dragged three liabilities across an entire country while getting zero real help.”

I used to play along to this entire album - “Metropolis, Pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory”, Dream Theater’s 1999 release - like it was my job back in high school. Knew it forward and backward; every stroke, fill, lick, time signature change… everything. It’s come full-circle now that my son has become a major - maybe even bigger than me - DT fan.

I always loved this one - the opening number for the album. Not super complicated or overdone, just musically brilliant and a great listen. Is my rendition from my own memory here perfect? No, absolutely not! I can’t remember the last time I played this one through, but hey… I didn’t do too badly for an old bald guy!

The groom who’s best man chose cuck chairs

I would too. The idea of going to a friend and trying to censor their social media because they are standing up in your wedding is some of the most narcissist shit I’ve ever heard. Based on what a bitch you are I have a feeling this isn’t going to be your last time dealing with a cuck chair.

Time Constraints

Ryen often mentions he wishes he had more time with a guest or “taping schedules” as a reason to end segments early like he’s still operating a radio time slot. Bill and many other podcasts often go longer with guests if it makes sense. What’s the deal here? Is our guy just punching the clock?
