Chapter 1: What did Tony Kornheiser say about the Nats' recent performance?
Hey, it's Tony. On today's show, we will talk to Michael Wilbon about Matty Fitzpatrick winning the Hilton Head Tournament, also about the first games of the NBA playoffs. And then we'll talk to Mark Feinstein about what's going on with the Mets. Can't be good. But first, commerce.
Previously on the Tony Kornheiser Show. get an invite again, but I don't know. It just was everything coming together, coming out of COVID, massive soccer fan, all of this, and now I'm just like, I look at the mail every single day, hoping the invite comes again, and here we are in 2026 still asking for it.
So this is five years ago. I thought maybe this was just recently.
Oh, no, no, no. I'll tell you right now I'll quit my job if I get the invite again.
Chapter 2: How did Michael Wilbon react to Matt Fitzpatrick's win?
Okay.
The Tony Kornheiser Show is on now.
Such a great story by Taylor Twelman. That was fun. From Jason Poulin. Not Andy Poli. Jason Poulin, not the pitcher for the Nats either. From Sudbury, Ontario in Canada. My life has been consumed by football for over 30 years. I've always had time for hockey and baseball, but football is my passion. Basketball, soccer, horsies, meh.
PTI has always been in my rotation, especially during football season, but I still found it digestible when I had to endure months of no football coverage.
Chapter 3: What insights did Mark Feinsand share about the Mets' struggles?
Baseball fills the gap, and your fleeting coverage of hockey suits me just fine. The sole reason I tune in, of course, being you and Wilbon, making every second of your show enjoyable with your camaraderie, humor, the obvious passion for your craft, and the efficiency of the show. I found your podcast about two years ago.
Not unlike PTI, the long span between football season is something I simply need to endure. I was curious as to how I'd absorb the hour-long format of your show without football. Let me just say it's been as easy as watching PTI. You've successfully captured the same energy, pace, humor, and efficiency of PTI.
The woman to whom I'm related by marriage has had to endure many Tony was so funny today, followed by a who's Tony. Your show's last week's spotlighting baseball podcast naming horses in the World Cup would normally have me heading for a darts tournament on ESPN Ochoa. However, your guests were informative, witty, and most of all, excited to speak to you.
I found myself appreciating the stories behind those sports more than the actual sport itself. Thank you for everything you and the team do for all of us.
Chapter 4: What common phrase do athletes use in interviews and why?
Tell Sherman Oil, Nike, and the Nats bullpen to eat it. It's a lovely thing.
Very nice.
Very lovely. It captures the show. This is more personal, what I'm going to read now. This is from Joe Pearson in Indianapolis. So Friday night, I was watching Celebrity Jeopardy. Don't judge me. And Mina Kimes was one of the contestants. Anyway, there was a clue about the seventh planet, and no one rang in. Of course, the proper response was, what is Uranus?
One of the other contestants, Timothy Simons? Simmons.
Chapter 5: What are the highlights of the NBA playoffs so far?
Simmons, because it only has one answer.
That's right. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Timothy Simmons, best known as Jonah Ryan on Veep. He was so funny. He was so funny.
Yes.
leans over to mina and says kornheiser is going to be very disappointed in you to which mina gives a very defeated i know your reach is ever expanding grandpa clearly simmons is at the very least a pti watcher now your name has been spread to all the jeopardy watchers come to think of it that probably won't move the needle as jeopardy and pti both seem to target the 70 to dead demographic regardless keep spreading the gospel of uranus jokes spreading uranus ha chuckles
It's wonderful. Would you like to hear it? Yeah. Here we go.
Love to hear it.
Let's do Meet the Planets for 800.
This seventh planet is named for a lesser known deity, the son and husband of Gia.

Chapter 6: How has Mike Trout started the season and what does it mean for the Angels?
Not coming up with it. You missed your chance to say it on national TV. What is Uranus? Uranus. Never wrong. Back to you, Mina.
Oh, God.
Kornheiser's going to be disappointed in you. All right. That's great. That's just great. That's brilliant. That's fantastic. You finally made Jeopardy. Yeah, it's great.
Chapter 7: What are the early challenges faced by MLB teams this season?
That's really good. Wow, wow, it's wonderful.
But I went through to try and- So in recent times, I've made Jeopardy and the Olympics. Yes. Made the Olympics.
It's pretty good. Yeah. Pretty good. I went through, I wanted to give a bunch of the nicknames that Jonah had on Veep, and they're all, we can't say them on the air.
They're very funny.
Chapter 8: What interesting stories were shared in the Mailbag segment?
That was a wonderfully funny show.
Oh, it was terrific. Wonderful. Just the best.
So something observational here. I was watching the Nats. The Nats had a terrible, terrible loss on Saturday.
Extra innings.
Should have won it a couple times. They got out of the 10th without yielding a run to the Giants. They have bases loaded and nobody out. How many outs?
And they didn't score. Oh, that's terrible.
Dalen Lyle struck out on a high pitch. Some other guy came up and struck out, and then they hit a ground ball to second base. You cannot let that chance go by. It was just terrible. Just terrible. But yesterday, they did fine. I don't usually use this sentence. Their bullpen was great.
It's a 3-0 game. The bullpen was great. It was interesting. The home run, Meade, first baseman, is one of the base runners who made a costly mistake in the previous game. Yes. Yeah. They are the worst base running team in the history of baseball. And it's another one of those series. They get three or four guys. Should have won the series.
Three or four guys get caught every game. Every game get picked off and thrown out of third and home. And some of this Little League stuff runs through the bag. It's just awful. I mean, no one who watches them. You might be able to say something good about the bullpen yesterday, which I just did. Their base running is horrific. Absolutely horrific. They get trapped every single game.
