  • Ep 30: The Politics of Around the Horn - Featuring Tony Reali
    May 22 2025

    On this week’s filibuster, Jemele weighs in on the latest drama surrounding Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, including the back-and-forth commentary between former NFL players Ryan Clark and Robert Griffin III. Jemele is then joined by Tony Reali, host of ESPN’s popular show, Around the Horn. Reali discusses the show ending after over 20 years, how will he navigate his career once ATH is done, and what he thinks of the criticisms that the show is ending because it’s too “woke.” Reali also shares why he chose to be candid about his mental health struggles, and losing a child.

  • Ep 29: The Politics of Negotiating Like A Girl - Featuring Amy Trask
    May 15 2025

    On this week’s filibuster, Jemele answers a provocative question: Was the NBA draft lottery rigged so that the Dallas Mavericks could get the No 1 pick just months after trading superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers? Later, Jemele is joined by Amy Trask, who was the first female CEO in the NFL. Amy covers her 20-year career with the Las Vegas Raiders, including what it was like to work with iconic owner Al Davis. Amy shares how she navigated the male-dominated world of professional football, and weighs in on some current league issues — a possible 18th regular-season game, the increase in games overseas, and the NFL broadening its reach on streaming platform. Finally, in Jemele’s new segment, the Final Spin, she shares her thought on Major League Baseball posthumously lifting Pete Rose’s lifetime ban for gambling.

Lanny, a former Houston basketball player, discusses how he rebounded from a devastating injury that cost him his NBA career. Lanny also shares how Ryan Coogler's Black Panther movie served as inspiration for Actively Black, the challenges he faces in trying to turn his company into the “Black Nike,” and the impact of Donald Trump’s tariffs. In the final segment, Jemele shares her favorite story about Gregg Popovich, who recently stepped down as head coach of the San Antonio Spurs.
