22 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Just one from the Mets acquire Freddie Peralta, Tobias Myers from the Brewers. That was the big news last night. Yesterday, they did have their press conference to introduce Bo Bichette. I'll just give you one, the idea of that he's now going to be in New York as a Met.
When I landed, I looked around and saw the city, and it hit a little bit different than it does when you come as a road player.
Chapter 2: What insights does Bo Bichette share about playing in New York?
I think as a road player, you kind of come and you try to ignore all of it. And when I landed, I kind of looked around and soaked it in and realized, like,
this is something you know there's a this is his home is what it is now so uh he was introduced yesterday and all was good in met land and prior to that david stearns had talked about wanting to add an arm and then later in the day he does it gets two of them with peralta and myers the yankees were busy as well resigning cody bellinger to a five-year contract worth 162.5 million dollars um the nfl i got a couple of other ones from jack because this
pagula interview i know the clips that went viral yesterday but there's a lot more to the hour-long sit down with him and brandon bean so first things first um he made it very clear that he was the one that let go of sean mcdermott and how my decision to bring in a new coach was based on the uh results
of our game in denver last last sunday where they lost the broncos this was the one a lot of conversation about how much influence the quarterback has in terms of the head coaching position pagula made it very clear this decision was his and his only and josh allen he didn't have any input at all i didn't talk to josh about this uh i talked to him afterwards um
And that conversation will stay private, but he had no input in it.
And then there was a question about the quote-unquote power struggle, or was there one? Was this a power play by Bean to make sure you knew who was boss? So here was the question first I will give you from the reporter to these two.
The perception from the fan base out there is that this was some kind of power play made by you. to still be here in Shawtown.
And kind of earlier, I played a clip where Pagula interrupted. Well, Bean started to talk, and then Pagula took over.
Can I help you about the power play part of that? I'm the kind of guy, if I sense you're on a power play, you're out.

Chapter 3: How did Terry Pegula address the coaching changes in the NFL?
So it's just one of those things. You spend so much time with someone, you see how hard they work, how good of a teammate they are. Um, and then that happens and you just, you feel crushed.
I'm going to have to, um, get up very quickly and make the start on Sunday, Sunday night. You've got the Rams and the Seahawks. That's at six 32 of the things from the NFL, uh, John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan met the media. They were asked about Brandon. I, you, um, not playing and, uh,
kind of disappearing essentially from the team here was the question and answer it's kind of an unprecedented move for him to forfeit that kind of money have you been able to determine why he was so upset why he wasn't showing up and just any background you can give on that i wish i knew i yeah can't help you there sorry yeah has there been a line of communication with him
There was, but not anymore. So that is clearly the electromagnetic field. Maybe. Scrambled his brain into soup. It's possible. And then there's Ben Johnson in Chicago. So he talked about losing and moving on to next year already when a reporter asked what I think was a very common question after a big season in year one, and Johnson shot it down very quickly.
I don't know if I kept the question in here or not. If I didn't, the reporter was asking about building momentum towards next season.
You guys are going to be able to build off this. There is no building off of this. We go back to square one. We're back at the bottom again. And that's really all 32 teams. If you feel otherwise, you're probably missing the big picture.
He's just got to chill out. Shut him down. The thing about it is that his quarterback showed vast improvement. That's the big thing. And that's one of the reasons why they got as far as they did. Plus, they spent the second most money, I think, in free agency in the offseason. So as well, I guess it was money well spent. I mean, they were right there. Knicks beat the Nets 120-66.
That is the correct score. 54-point difference. The biggest win total the Knicks have ever had in a single game. Jalen Brunson had 20. Here was Miles McBride. Landry Schammett, 6 of 6 from 3 on the day. He was outstanding. McBride.
Not surprised. We see how he works every day. To deal with what he's had to deal with. Testimony to his hard work. How he prepares and You know, we're not surprised.
