Relatively Speaking Podcast: NBA trades, Grayson Allen and Taylor Swift

Published: Jan. 6, 2017, 3:41 p.m.

Jared Mintz is back. After a singular episode hiatus in which Jared pretended to be sick, but was really out hustling for that cheddar, the Relatively Speaking Podcast is better and as good as it ever was. The show begins with NBA trade talk. With the Cleveland Cavaliers and Atlanta Hawks moving some parts (hi, Kyle Korver), it appears as though the latter is punting on the season. In turn, it means NBA franchises across the North American continent will be looking to puck talent from Atlanta like it owes them money. Who goes where and how much will they cost? Grayson Allen is back. Apparently, indefinite means one in the realm of Duke. Anyway, Joseph and Jared discuss his return the action, as well as the reaction to it. Do you care about the NFL Playoffs? The Relatively Speaking Podcast doesn't. At least not yet. Rather, the dynamic duo used what was meant to be time allotted to discuss the weekend's games to banter about their all-time favorite backup quarterbacks. Michael Bishop, Ray Lucas and Bubby Brister all, obviously, mentioned. Ask Me Anything also returns this week. Fans want to know what was the hosts' most heartbreaking moments as sports fans. Jared, being a Knicks and Jets fan, had about a billion of them. Joseph, on the other hand, hates Joe Carter. Another rather handsome fan wants to know when the podcast is firing Jared Mintz and will be moving on to Tommy Stokke, who guest co-hosted on Monday.
