In this wild ride of an episode, the Group Chat boys—Casey, Damien, and Nick—tackle everything from cage-side chaos to cap space catastrophes. We kick things off previewing Cage Warrior Championships 37, going down Saturday night in Houma, LA, including a conversation with promoter Justin Verdin. He breaks down the first-ever tag team submission match (yes, that’s real), and gives us the scoop on a stacked card full of kids, kickboxing, and a pro debut vs. a 15-fight veteran.
From there, it’s all-out sports mayhem:
-
College World Series: Can LSU mash their way past Arkansas again, or is Jay Johnson playing chess with arms tied?
-
NBA Finals: Is this the Thunder’s moment, or can TJ McConnell’s rec league energy keep Indiana alive?
-
The Broken NBA Economy: With only one team under the salary cap, are we looking at the beginning of an NBA free agency collapse?
-
Victor Hernandez Fight News: We’ve got breaking news—Victor's big fight is officially set for October. Get the scoop and why this one could launch him to stardom.
We also talk:
-
Golf: The U.S. Open was pure punishment. JJ Spaun survives the hell that was Oakmont while Sam Burns gets robbed in the mud.
-
Gaming Glory: NCAA Football is almost back. Will our Group Chat Dynasty League last more than 3 weeks? Vegas says no.
-
Rapid Fire Questions: From youth sports ejections to handshake disasters, it’s chaos as always in our weekly lightning round.
And for the cherry on top… Aiden English (yep, from WWE’s Vaudevillains) drops in for a hilarious cameo roast of Nick’s shady “Lil Games” segment.
👊 MMA. 🏀 Hoops. 💸 NBA cap space. 🎮 Video games. 🏌️‍♂️ Golf misery. 🤼 Wrestling gimmicks.
This episode has everything except a functioning Android in the group chat.
