Out of Site: Episode 37 with Dave Early Apr 20, 2021

Show notes

We’re four games into this brutal stretch of games against playoff-caliber opponents, and the Philadelphia 76ers have done … decent. They’re 4-0 after defeating Oklahoma City, Brooklyn, the Los Angeles Clippers, and the Dallas Mavericks. There is a sense of unease around David Early, though. It’s warranted as a result of late blown leads to the Nets and Clippers, so Dave joins host Adio Royster to talk about what bothers him about the wins (and “moral defeats”) as Dave called them in his column last week.

Dave’s column: https://www.libertyballers.com/2021/4/15/22385890/sixers-beat-nets-in-divisional-showdown-and-remain-in-first-place-but-it-felt-like-a-moral-defeat

This week on The Gastroenteritis Blues, Emily, Dan and Steve discuss the Sixers' big win over the LA Clippers.

THEN!

Jeopardy! champion and Philadelphia native Brad Rutter joins the show to tell us all about what it’s like to be a Jeopardy! GOAT. Brad discusses what it was like appearing on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, how he prepares for the trivia he needs to know on the show, his friendship with the late, great Alex Trebek, and what it’s like hosting The Chase on ABC. Brad also tells the gang about his Philly sports fandom, his thoughts during the Process years, and which all-time Sixer he thinks would be best on the show.

The Chase returns for season 2 on ABC on Sunday, June 6th.
