Long time no pod! Kind of been on a hiatus this season as I've been focusing on some other projects but randomly threw out a "C.J. come on the pod" after he tweeted about John Reynolds having "that wet wet" (paraphrasing). And, like the nice guy he is, he accepted! C.J. has basically lived a dream career of mine from writing for Fallon, making Funn…

This one is pretty self explanatory. No 2K, no nostalgia, almost no Wolves talk, just Peter Joe and I rambling about playoffs and the draft for a little over an hour and a half. I edited this at 3 am after work aka hardly edited this so it is for sure rambly. Happy draft day!

This podcast has... listeners? Lito (@CozyLito on twitter) was very cool and reached out over DM about liking the show. We smoked together and talked draft, the power of 2k11, being a Seattle basketball fan, and JT Thor. And of course, we look into the 2k crystal ball. Super fun time. Got this and one other episode I'll try to get out before the dr…

Henry does a lot of very cool work with NBA trainers, just got a professional scouting job, and on his blog he writes insanely nuanced posts on draft guys, …

Just kinda rambling with the SSP Squad, did very little prep for this one just tryna sorta get in the swing of pumping these out again. Good episode! We start out shooting the shit about working at Super Summer Program and kind of on teaching the basketball class there but honestly mainly just reminisce about the job in general. I didn’t really kee…

This is actually the second one I recorded like 3 months ago lol but was trying to get enough of my “basketball backstory” out there before doing strictly prospect episodes but we’ll alternate between the two for now, I have lots of of ideas for both. A very fun episode about probably the most fun prospect in this draft! I bring on Ignacio Rissotto…

For the debut episode of The High & Dry Draft Pod I'm joined by 3 guys I have played basketball with dating back to middle school. One is Wolves writer and former De La Salle High School varsity basketball manager, Jack Borman (@jrborman13), serving as our "expert guest" on Tyrell Terry.
