Your husband is not who you think he is. Your body is not what you thought it was. Your identity is formed by a secret history. I'm Dani Shapiro, and these are just a few of the stunning stories I'll be exploring on the 14th season of Family Secrets. He kind of shoved me out of the way and said, move, and he went out the front door and he jumped in a car and drove off, and that was the last time I saw him.

Good morning, sweet world, and welcome to the No Dunks podcast presented by FanDuel. It's Thursday, June 4th, 2026. I'm J.E. Skeets, here on the Classic Factory, and alongside me, as always, Tass Mellis. The NBA app icon is gold for the NBA Finals. NBA app users, these two works are for you. Next to him is my top shot hot boy, Trey Kirby. and over yonder making the magic happen super producer jd hello there he is hello to everybody on youtube hello podcast listeners on today's show We've got a small Giannis trade rumor update. Don't roll your eyes, okay? It's been a long time. Steph Curry is no longer a sneaker free agent. We'll get into that. But first, the New York Knicks are three wins away from their first title in over 50 years after coming back to defeat the Spurs 105-95 in Game 1 of the 2026 NBA Finals last night.
J.E. Skeets 3:23
To quote Sleeper Knicks... with a tweet that went viral late last night. Everyone is better than Jalen Brunson until it's time to be better than Jalen Brunson. Because he was the big takeaway of this game one after getting banged up in the first quarter, first half a few times with the knee and the ankle, struggling all night tasks, but coming through in the clutch, popping off in the fourth quarter, some timely buckets. A whole bunch of other guys contributed, but Brunson, their leader, was the dog getting the game one victory. They got there because Carl Anthony Towns outplayed Victor Wemenyama. And Jalen Brunson was able to overcome his bad start to this game. He wasn't feeling it. Wasn't awesome to start.
J.E. Skeets 4:08
One for eight and five for 16. But Carl Anthony Towns, I was wrong. I didn't see this coming. His ability to literally out-effort Victor Wemenyama. Be able to drive past him. Be able to play incredible defense. This is year 11 for this guy. And now... He's a great defender. People can change. We didn't think that of his first decade in this league at all. And I think his ability just to outplay him, Victor Rabanyava didn't start well. It started from the opening tip. Karl-Anthony Towns beat him on the tip when Scott Foster threw that ball up. You think that was legit? You think that wasn't a stolen tip?
