Number 1 Pickleballer Anna Leigh Waters Joins & Mavs Win the Cooper Flagg Sweepstakes
The Mavs appear to have captured the Flagg! Matt and Jerry share their thoughts on this year’s wild NBA Draft lottery results and explain why Dallas should hang on to that #1 pick for dear life even if it means turning away offers for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Then, if you haven’t heard of Anna Leigh Waters yet, you certainly will soon! The number 1 pickleball player in America and the country’s next young superstar athlete joins to talk about her amazing rise in the sport, the fallout from beating her mom in a match at age 12 and so much more!
Finally, Jerry explains to us how shouting “hit” and “miss” on the set of Battleship eventually landed him a role in Lone Survivor, and we answer the question of how old your child needs to be before you can tell people that they’re good at a sport.

Shedeur Sanders Pranked, Matt Leinart Punk’d and Stadiums We’d Like to See Revived
When a prank call goes just a bit too far. On the latest episode of Throwbacks, Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara discuss the infamous Shedeur Sanders phone call with Matt sharing details of the time he appeared on Ashton Kutcher’s former show, Punk’d.
The guys also look back on their draft week experience in Green Bay including Jerry’s relationship-building sessions with Urban Meyer and Matt’s memories of nearly being selected by the Raiders.
Plus, with RFK Stadium close to being revived for the Washington Commanders, it caused us to wonder which stadiums from the past we'd like to see put back in play.

The “White Mamba” himself, Brian Scalabrine, drops by to explain where his famous nickname came from, what his biggest career regret was and which current NBA team he deems to be “flawless.” Plus, why do so many regular people think they can take him one-on-one?? We try and help Scal find the reason and we get his thoughts on some of the other great white hoopers in the game today.
Then, Matt Leinart and Jerry Ferrara talk about Rory McIlroy’s win at the Masters and come up with a list of other athletes that everyone seemed to be collectively rooting for.
And finally, in today’s mailbag, we dive into the unfolding NIL drama between the University of Tennessee and quarterback Nico Iamaleava with some unique insight from Matt.
