Chapter 2: What insights does Albert Breer provide about the upcoming NFL season?
Brown, there would have been a corresponding move to move Devontae. Because, I mean, I think it's not that they don't love Devontae Adams. The Rams do. It's just Adams and Brown play the same position, the same receiver spot, the X position.
And, like, having two older guys with some injury history together could be a little problematic, which is, you know, why, you know, if they had gotten Brown, if the Rams had landed Brown back in March, it would have meant Devontae Adams going somewhere else. Okay. Does it behoove the Eagles to trade A.J. Brown today?
Or, as you said, somebody, you know, Rasheed Rice situation, somebody gets injured. It feels like June 1st it was happening. I know what you're saying. I know what you're saying. They've waited on this for three months. And I think there is a human element to this, too, where A.J.
Brown, I think, has been a relatively good soldier through this whole thing, knowing he's probably not going to be on the team. And contrary to public belief, he's very well-liked in that locker room. He's more popular than Jalen Hurts in that locker room. But why wasn't he happy? I think... What I would say on that is this guy is an ultra competitive guy, right?
And I think too often we make the mistake of assuming a guy can be competitive about his team's performance and not as competitive about his individual performance, if that makes sense. You know, I think all these guys think about their legacy, their place in the game and all of that. And I think for A.J. Brown, like he felt like he was being held back individually.
with the way that Jalen Hurts plays, with the way the offense is built around Jalen Hurts. And it's really interesting, Dan, because I thought watching him last year, maybe he lost a little bit of a step. And when you talk to enough people who have evaluated him, people in the league who've had to compete against him, there's a little bit of a split.
Some people think he has lost a step, and then other people think he looked a little disinterested last year. No. Like, the frustration had boiled over. And so, look, again, he's still beloved in that building. You know what I mean? And a guy who, he was only there for four years. He's top 15 in catches, receiving yards.
touchdown catches all time for them, went to two Super Bowls with them, won a Super Bowl with them. So I think you want this to be as clean as it possibly can be if you're the Eagles because the guy's done a lot of good for you. But based on where he is with the quarterback, I think it's just sort of time. Albert Breer, the Monday morning quarterback.
I said all year long, even the previous year, there's something that goes on with Jalen Hurts. There was an undercurrent there, and I just didn't understand it. Now, I'm not saying he's a great regular season quarterback. I think he's a big-time, big-game quarterback. He's shown that. But I don't know...

Chapter 3: What are the implications of A.J. Brown's trade situation?
And that's where the opportunity starts to arise.
OBJ with the Giants, a second look at him. I mean, like, sometimes people, like, but I think even, like, with him, do people realize how old he is? Like, this is his 13th year. He was in the same draft class as Johnny Manziel. And, like, he's the same age as Mike Evans, you know? And we look at Mike Evans as such an older player. I mean, I...
I think it's great that Odell Beckham wants to keep playing football. I love that, that he's got that passion for the game that he wants to get back in, and he really is going through the process that any other player on the fringes of the league would go through to make it back in.
I just think we have to have our expectations under control with some of these guys and what they are now versus what they used to be. And there are guys across the board like that, like Taylor Decker's another one, right? Like left tackle for the Lions was a centerpiece for them over the last decade was a really important piece to build for Dan Campbell and those guys.
He's not what he was before. You know, so, you know, I'd say it's a combination of sometimes our, you know, the name doesn't quite match what the game is right now. So that's a piece of it.
But I think another piece of it is during May and June teams really want to spend a lot of time looking at the younger players in the roster, see how they've come along, you know, and then I think, you know, most of these guys look at it as someone's going to be more desperate in July or August than they are right now to fill my position.
Before I let you go, this Vikings quarterbacking situation, when Kyler Murray says all the right things, and then J.J. McCarthy says, well, it's just like we're the other side of the classroom. It's kind of like high school. Nothing about, hey, I can learn from him. He's had a roller coaster ride in his career. And I don't know if this –
has a mushroom cloud at the end of it of, or is, you know, Kevin O'Connell going to be tamping this down during the season? I mean, I think it's interesting because I don't know that the Vikings quarterback situation doesn't line up with the timeline of the rest of the roster, right?
The rest of the roster, and you can go down the list of names, tons of guys either in the prime or the back end of the prime of their careers, right? You know, guys like Byron Murphy and Andrew Van Kinkle, and obviously offensively, you've got Justin Jefferson.

Chapter 4: How does the Eagles' cap situation affect their roster decisions?
Jordan Addison is close to the end of his deal. TJ Hawkins is now an older player. Christian Derrissaw at left tackle. Like, they're invested in a ton of guys that are win-now players. And so, like, I think it's interesting when you bring up, like, the discord there because last year the intention was to put –
competition in the room for jj mccarthy and daniel jones and sam darnold found better opportunity elsewhere to become the long-term starter like dj knew if he went to indy there's a better chance he was going to be a long-term guy there the same way sam darnold knew that if he went to seattle there's going to be a better opportunity to be a long-time guy there so then they pivot and they decide all right like we're going to go all in on jj he gets all the reps and
his teammates are going to know he's the quarterback and let's see where this goes. And it went where it went. And so now they've created a competitive situation for him in the room again. And, like, the interesting thing about it is that roster needs to win now. So no one's on scholarship anymore. His draft status doesn't matter.
And it's whoever is the best player for us to win right now is who – Kevin O'Connell is going to pick for that's going to be Kevin O'Connell's mindset in picking his quarterback now. So it's different than it was last year. They're not worried about the first round investment in the player anymore. In fact, the GM who drafted JJ McCarthy 10th overall is now gone and there's a new GM coming in.
And so it's a really interesting situation because I think most of us would have looked last year at Minnesota and said that could be a 12 or 13 win team. Yeah. And, like, I don't think very many people are looking at him that way anymore. And what's changed? Well, you know, the quarterback position has changed. Always great to talk to you. I know you have a busy day today. Thank you, Albert.
All right. Thanks, DP. That's Albert Breer. They call him Bert, the Monday morning quarterback. I'm fascinated to see Kyler Murray in that offense, playing half your games on AstroTurf indoors. Right. He could have an unbelievable year, in my opinion. We might see the truth. Now, you can go back. He had a couple of years there when he got to Arizona where they were some really good years.
I just hope that he's a student of the game and he listens to his coach. And I'd throw the ball to Justin Jefferson every time that I could. We'll take a break. We'll come back with these secondary ticket prices for the Knicks. I think we'll probably, I was going to say floor you. No pun intended. You see what I did with that time? We're back after this.

Chapter 5: What does Albert Breer say about the Patriots' interest in A.J. Brown?
Well, we were thinking of originally calling it one of the early names of our band before Jonas Brothers. This is how you guys remember it going down? Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast where people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas.
And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey, Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. Oh, wow. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it.

Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is, getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is, getting a new one put up in its place.
As long as there's a politics of race in America, there's going to be a politics of remembering the Civil War. To get to school, I had to go down Robert E. Lee Boulevard. To get to the grocery store, I had to go down Jefferson Davis Parkway.
If you're a historian and you leave out half of what the history is, you're not doing your job. I'm Akilah Hughes, and Rebel Spirit season two goes deep on both of those things, the fights, the politics, the people who won, and my personal campaign to add something to the Kentucky State House that's actually worth the wall space. We are more than our bodies. We contain essence. We contain spirit.
How do you represent that? They are just fueling a fire that is really catching. You'll see what I mean. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Keith Giamonca seemed like a mild-mannered suburban dad. But secretly, he became someone else. A master of disguise who went on a crime spree. At the time, did it seem like a crazy idea?

Chapter 6: What factors are influencing the Rams' trade decisions?
All right, that's Lexi. Polly, you didn't know how to pronounce pecan. You said pecan. Yeah, so it's pecan pie. Yeah, so pecan is a port-a-potty. Okay. Yes, Dylan? I'm team pecan also. I know it's technically pecan. It's like when you, it's saying Louisville, but like that sounds nicer to me. Also, I knew someone would call in and say something about pecan. You did? Yeah, I knew it.
Well, why didn't you say it before they called in? Because I prefer to just wait for it to actually happen. Craig in Virginia. Hi, Craig. Best and worst of the weekend. Good morning, fellas. Best of the weekend, the intensity and drama on the Diamond, the men's, women's NCAA tournament. Worst of the weekend, no more Spurs Thunder. What a series that was.
But I got a possible poll question, maybe for the last hour tomorrow. Now we're in June. What's the best sports month of the year? Yeah, we do that every year, depending on time of the year. You know, because we talked about March Madness. You could throw in the Super Bowl, March Madness. You could throw in spring training, you know, the draft. Like, there's...
I think we've kind of singled out two different times out of the year. Yes, Paul? North Carolina State University did an exhaustive study of how foods are pronounced in different states in America. And in Texas, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, it's pecan pie. Most of the country in the West, it's pecan pie. And then in the Northeast, it's pecan pie.
And in some places in northern Wisconsin, it's pecan pie again. So it's all over the place. Yes, Dylan. Yeah, I mean, that's like there's also like regional terms like isn't soda different everywhere. It's like pop in the Midwest and then soda here and then like fizz or something somewhere else.
I remember when I first got to New York and I asked for pop and they didn't know what I was talking about. They go, you mean soda? I go, no pop. That's what I grew up in the Midwest. Speaking of drinking. World Cup is attempting to reverse years of declining beer consumption. From 2014 to 2024, global beer consumption fell 3%. In the United States, consumption plummeted 17%.
So the heavy promotion around the World Cup is trying to reverse the declining beer consumption numbers. I'll do my part. Yes, Dylan. Yes, Anheuser-Busch InBev is spending over $110 million on advertising for the FIFA World Cup. But I think a lot of it is attributed to the proliferation of hard seltzers and hard iced teas. There's beer alternatives. It used to be like, you want beer or cocktail?
I know. I have a friend who works in the beverage industry, and he said the shift... to like these no-additive gourmet wines, like healthy wines and different seltzers that people aren't drinking what we used to drink. A lot of cocktails and a lot of seltzers, healthier drinks for you. which I don't know if anything's healthier for you.
I know there are some things that aren't as healthy for you. I don't know if I'd use the word, well, this is healthier. You know, I had an additive-free tequila last night. I didn't say, hey, this is healthier for me. Yes, Todd? And now there's this desperation. I saw something the other day. Pepsi has pre or probiotics, like it's yogurt or something like that.
