The Ryen Russillo Show

Ryen is joined by Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix to discuss the fallout from the Celtics trading Jaylen Brown to the Sixers, what they've heard about why the deal happened, and why teams around the league believe they could have beaten Philly's offer.

Ryen opens with LeBron leaving the Lakers and why he doesn't like the Warriors as his next potential destination. Plus, he talks about the Walker Kessler trade and Kawhi returning to Toronto. Then, ESPN's Jorge Sedano joins for more on LeBron's departure, Kessler joining the Lakers, and which team makes the most sense for LeBron next. Actor, comedian, and now author Danny McBride stops by to discuss his new book, Thrilling Tales of Modern Men, his comedy style, the enduring popularity of Eastbound & Down, and more. And finally, Kyle and Ceruti join for some listener-submitted Life Advice, including a guy who thinks his life sucks and how to make a move on your sister's friend.
