What impressive performance did LeBron James showcase in the postseason?

Imagine an Olympics where doping is not only legal, but encouraged. It's the enhanced games. Some call it grotesque. Others say it's unleashing human potential. Either way, the podcast Superhuman documented it all, embedded in the games and with the athletes for a full year. Within probably 10 days, I put on 10 pounds. I was having trouble stopping the muscle growth. Listen to Superhuman on the iHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Joe and I are both lifelong Star Wars fans, so we're celebrating May the 4th with a brand new week of fun, thought-provoking Star Wars-related episodes. Join us as we tackle science and culture topics from a galaxy far, far away, such as the biology of Tauntauns and Wampas on the ice planet Hoth, or the practicality and corporate business sense of the Sith Rule of Two.

How are the Chiefs preparing to contend for Super Bowls again?

On the Look Back At It podcast.
Clifford Taylor IV 1:41
1979, that was a big moment for me. 84 was big to me.
Colin Cowherd 1:45
I'm Sam Jay. And I'm Alex English. Each episode, we pick a year, unpack what went down, and try to make sense of how we survived it.

What are the implications of LeBron's playing style as he ages?

Colin Cowherd 1:52
With our friends, fellow comedians, and favorite authors. Like Mark Lamont Hill on the 80s. 84 was a wild year.
Clifford Taylor IV 1:58
It was a wild year. I don't think there's a more important year for black people. Listen to Look Back at It on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Good stuff today. It's a Tuesday. Bulls have a new GM. Knicks hammer the Sixers.

How does LeBron's basketball IQ contribute to his longevity in the league?

Nick Wright 2:46
Wemby and the Spurs, tough matchup with Minnesota. Knick right around the corner. So the Lakers thunder play tonight. LeBron is a 15-point underdog. Colin, it's not LeBron, it's the Lakers. Nah, it's LeBron. He's a 15-point underdog, biggest of his career. Yeah, we were talking about this yesterday. He can kind of play as long as he wants. He's such a play initiator. He's so smart. The question is, this is why I think J.J. Redick is a great coach for him because J.J. 's authentic. He doesn't have a filter.

What does Nick Wright say about the Lakers' chances this season?

Nick Wright 3:20
He's going to give you the truth. If he's upset with LeBron, LeBron respects him. And LeBron's always been that LeBron likes smart people. His handlers are smart, his agents smart, his friends are smart. He likes J.J. Redick. He likes smart people. LeBron doesn't have a lot of interest in playing with kids and teaching them how to play basketball. He loves Kevin Love or Chris Bosh or D. Wade. You know, he likes that. And very few young players he really likes playing with. And I think J.J. Redick is authentic. There's no filter. But I think what's fascinating about LeBron is...

What are the strengths and weaknesses of the current NBA teams discussed?

Nick Wright 3:53
And let's start with this. Mike Breen was on Ryan Rosillo's podcast yesterday, and what he says sounds outrageous, but I think Mike Breen is right, and he talked about LeBron's career going forward.
Unknown 4:06
The guy's been an NBA player more than half of his life, which is kind of hard to believe. And I do believe he could play for another, he's 41, he could play for another eight, nine years.
