The first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs have come to a close (some earlier than others), so what sense is there to make of the second round, with so many Hall of Famers already gone fishin'? Well, fear not, because Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, Place To Be Nation's NBA-Team, are back in town to discuss the four match-ups! The Cleveland Cavaliers won their first playoff series without LeBron James since the 90's, but how much of a threat can Donovan Mitchell's crew really be against the mighty Celtics? It's the Knicks and the Pacers again, but why is all about offense instead of defense as the Pacers try to outscore the magnificent Jalen Brunson? Can the young, athletic Oklahoma City Thunder swat away the savvy superstars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving in Dallas? And after one game already being played, is it possible that the West will be won between Minnesota and Denver? All this, draft lottery talk, and much more! So suit up and take it out in episode 304 with the NBA-Team!

Last month marked the 112th Anniversary of the Titanic hitting the iceberg and as is tradition at "It Was a Thing on TV" we honor this event as only we can ...... by talking about a rapping dog.
This Italian animated movie tries to tell the story of the Titanic while also ripping off multiple Disney and Don Bluth animated movies.
Hilarity ensues? Possibly? Join Greg and Chico as it's PARTY TIME!

It's a western! It's a comedy! It has legends including Joel Higgins, Meeno Peluce, and Leonard Frey! And occasionally Christopher Lloyd! It can't fail! There is one small problem--half the nation didn't see its first episode because of football. Maybe it would have truly been the Best of the West if the western half of the country saw it.

On the 41st edition of Pop Goes the Classics, Steve Riddle, Andy Atherton, and Mirandia Berthold saddle up the wagons and head to the Old West as they discuss the 44th film in the Disney Canon, Home on the Range. Join the trio as they discuss: the lack of the Old West being used as a setting for Disney animated features; the solid voice cast for the film; the film's underdeveloped characters; Slim and his yodeling ability; Buck, the overconfident horse; most of the other characters being under utilized; the final climax of the film; whether the film would've been better as a short or an animated series and whether this is the worst film in Disney history. So join Steve, Andy, and Mirandia as they continue their trek through the Disney Animated Films.
