Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
This is a podcast from Rover.
The Morning Rumble Podcast. Now recyclable.
Just hit replay. We were away on Friday, Radio Awards on Thursday, so we actually won an award on Thursday night. Yeah, we did. Yeah, we did. Which you may or may not have seen. Morning, Rumble audience.
Chapter 2: What award did the podcast win?
It was. And so we won the Blackie Award, for those who don't know. And the Blackie Award is your best bit of the year in radio, or it could be like a... I know, for example, Bryce, over the years... We've entered some pranks with your dad, Big T. Like Jacinda Ardern. Yeah, those sorts of ones.
Chapter 3: What positive news is being shared that isn't in the headlines?
Those pranks like that, they were really good. And Blackie too, quick bit of info. Blackie is based on, that was his nickname, Kevin Black. And he's one of the OGs, one of the absolute greats. He's in broadcasting. Who's no longer with us. And because he was so good that they literally released records of his bits.
Chapter 4: What is the significance of the Blackie Award?
Do you think a morning rumble record would go up? I don't even say that. Don't even say it. It was an honour to win. To be fair, the records these days are podcasts. Yeah, true. So, yeah. And our podcast does go, right?
Chapter 5: What are the common reasons men avoid going to the doctor?
Yeah. So when he passed, they've made this an honour each year.
Chapter 6: How do pranks contribute to radio show success?
Of course. And it's a really cool one to win. And we've entered them over the years. And we entered the Scorpion song, of course. Wouldn't have changed the song. Now, you might be new to the show, you might not be, but last year around the time of the Rock 2000, we always do, we try and do a song bit or feature sometimes.
And that was our one last year to do that part of the song, the iconic whistle at the end of the song. The whistle at the end. Where the whistle would come in and I'd give that a go. Anyway, it bloody won. And I tell you what.
Take it seriously.
You know, I've been doing it all weekend and I can't even do it now while you're talking.
Chapter 7: What new initiatives are being discussed for the Rock 2000?
It's just like, it's so hard to do on air. Just before we play some of this, it was a real journey before we got to that final moment on the final day of the countdown. It's never a one-off. No. Try and nail it live as the song played. A journey to get there. And I tell you what, this is for all the other upset radio shows that didn't win. So here's all of us giving it a go.
The song's going to stop. Miles is going to whistle the end of the Scorpions. Wind of change.
Here we go. Don't look at me.
It's pressure. It's worse than I thought. Shocking. That doesn't help. Whistle it. That doesn't help. It actually sounds like wind. Then Mel and Rog gave it a go. So here we go.
It's your turn, Mel.
Let's go, Mel. Oh, useless.
Sweets.
Ugly worse. It's not wrestling.
Yeah, no. I should be better with that blowing to me.

Chapter 8: What humorous stories are shared about broken items?
Back of the rim. Won't go. Wemby the rebound. 12 seconds remaining. Stolen by Brunson. And knocked down by Wemby. Brunson will shoot free throws with Bink. They weren't totally clear. Brunson misses. Fight for the rebound. Picked up. Ananobi lost it. Cornette has it. Four seconds. Fox to Wimbanyama. Pulls up. Jumper. Won't go. Rebound taken by Vassell. It's over. It's over. It's all right.
It's too much, isn't it, Rog? You've been on their court. You're a Knicks guy. You're getting invested. I love how passionate you are with this. They were massive underdogs, though, to win, especially two games away in San Antonio to start the finals. Only the most diehard Knicks fans would know that they could win the two games on San Antonio's floor. Huge.
This is only the third time ever that the visiting team has gone up 2-0. That's crazy.
On the road, as they say. In the whole history.
In the whole history. The other two teams, iconic players were involved. The 93 Bulls with Michael Jordan. Sure. Did it against the Phoenix Suns. And the 95 Houston Rockets, who seemingly were the sixth seed in the West, so not even like a favourite to come out of the West. Right. With Hakeem Olajuwon, they beat the young Shaquille O'Neal Orlando Magic twice and swept them 4-0.
And the third is this New York Knicks team. It's exciting. So they've won away twice. They're back home in New York starting tomorrow. Two more games all at home in Madison Square Garden. And you were saying, so there's five games left, right? What do they got to win? Two. They only have to win two more games. Two out of five. Two out of five.
It's quite conceivable that they can win the next two games and sweep them 4-0. It'll all be over by the end of the week. You're saying, Toy, that in stats-wise, that no other team has ever come back from being 2-0 down if they've lost their first two home games. No one has ever come back in the NBA Finals losing the first two games on their own floor. It's crazy.
Five teams in NBA history have successfully overcome a 2-0 finals deficit, but no team in the Spurs situation has ever done it. They've stopped the watch party outside MSG for tomorrow's game too because Trump is coming. to the game. And everyone has to be there at least two hours before tip-off. Yeah, because they're going to do what they call the TSA.
They're going to have to do what they do at airports. Everyone's going to get bag checks. They're not going to have to bring bags at all, really. It's going to be crazy. They're interested to see what their reaction's going to be when it comes on the screen. Whether it'll be cheers or jeers. Because their fans, as we know, are crazy. And here they are after winning game two. Have a listen.
