It’s Maycember and we are no making all the May-stakes. That’s why we we’re broadcasting from home this week, and that’s why there are some tears again in this weeks episode. Bless our hearts. But the good news is that we got back to laughing quickly while discussing the Dallas Stars playoffs, “ozempic face”, and is Emily going to coach a tackle football team? 

All that and more in this week’s show!

And thank you to our amazing sponsors who made this wee...

A bunch of ladies went to space and we have thoughts. The Mavericks front office pulled out a bigger shovel to keep digging their hole by holding secret meetings for select media members.

Emily is fresh off a full day of jury duty, Luka is facing the Mavs in the wrong jersey, and TMG has somehow planted themselves in the middle of a Texas SB2 debate about school choice. (We know, we should stick to sports.)

We offered the TMG-SPAN floor to education analyst Lynn Davenport to offer a rebuttal to last week's guest. She explains why she feels the proposed bill is not in the best interest of Texas families, and why ...

Also, how should we deal with the tough situation of kids being left out, or leaving others out because we can't have everybody to everything?
