Welcome to Episode 80! We bring on Flex from Episode #79 and Chenny from Episode #75 - they know each other in real life - for a 3-man weave talking all things Bill, The Ringer, Russillo and more. We start out discussing the hilarity of Bill barely celebrating the Celtics win and instead immediately shifting to complaining. While we still expect him to be a homer, it was surprising hearing Bill be so angered at Tatum not getting enough respect according to him, and Bill being mad the new CBA is making is difficult for "the best starting lineup of the 21st century" to stay together for a 10-year title run. Next we talk Celtics sale, both how funny and disastrous it would be if Bill was a minority owner, and also wonder if Portnoy has solidified his claim on "The Belt" for top Boston fan vs. Bill. Simmons was not at the parade nor had any Celtics players, coaches or owners on his pod after the win - why not? Plus, Portnoy is much more suited to the new media paradigm in 2024. Next we discuss this season of Russillo-Bill pods. Was this the final season? It sounded like Bill was reminiscing last pod. And if so, who would replace Russillo? We discuss some Ringer podcasters as well as some outside the box options. We then talk The Ringer - will it survive after the initial deal contract is up - and wonder what Bill's next move is, including our thoughts on why Bill has never tried video again after the Any Given Wednesday disaster and whether he will in the future. We finish up with a preview of what content Bill will be putting out this summer. If you liked this episode, check out the guys on Episodes 79 & 75 as well!
