Opening Night Preview A special S/O and 'Thank YOU' to our Homage fam for the hospitality and launch of our newest and latest RT swag. Along w/ coinciding this special recording w/ Homage at their location we had a chance to get two of the newest Cavaliers on, for some fun: Jae Crowder and Isaiah Thomas. Of all the bromances the Cavs have come across, don't blink an eye at these two. Listen and you'll understand. Their instant appreciation and love for what they've experienced thus far in #TheLand, their competitivenatures and how they really mirror one another to what it will be like for IT when he sees a former face of the Celtic Organization come Opening Night of the NBA season. Jae opens things up for a Q and A with the RT fans that came to support, Channing and RJ continue to show why they are the GOATS and the fun just continued to roll. Last thing I'll say, if you're able to make it thru RJ's final salute - you'll enjoy all this pod has to give - undiluted, raw and real. Learn more about your ad choice

Fifty! Ya, we said it - we've reached it! 50 Episodes in the books and for our 50th Episode we are joined by none other than the man they all call: Swish; JR Smith! Although he has dropped by a few times prior, it was time he got his very own episode. PSA: he was wearing a shirt -- let's make that clear. But from light hearted in depth talks about his love for raising his 3 beautiful daughters, to life on the course (who his number 1 option would be as his caddy), diaper dandies & when was his first tattoo - to how many he has the conversation didn't stop. Swish even took the opportunity to express his thoughts about his recent tweet: I stand with Jemelle to what went thru his competitive mind of being moved from the starting line-up to 6th man. Like his 3 ball, his personality: it's golden.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The crew is back together again in #TheLand and there was no better to welcome us "home" than spending time w/ 2 guys from one of the hottest teams in baseball! From the outfield at Progressive Field following the Indians 100th WIN on the season, Indians Manager Tito Francona and Sports Time Ohio field reporter Andre Knott join us to talk everything under the sun (literally). Given Tito is an AZ Wildcat Alum like RJ & Channing, life in Tucson was a big hit. Did y'all know Tito managed Michael Jordan in the Minors?? If not, you soon will and the stories are endless - from MJ's competitive nature crossing between the hardwood & the field, a relationship between Tito and he didn't end after his time w/ the Birmingham Barons (ha)! Andre went on to open the doors to some insights on the Indians currently w/ Tito managing - what fans don't always get to see, hear and know ... like the best part about the 22 game win streak - didn't really come during the streak. Cray - we agree! So much gold here - and the

No better way to bring closure to a summer of growth than to dedicate an entire episode to those who made it all possible: Alex, Geeter & Corinne sign off 'Summer Road Trippin' the only way they know how - w/ truth!

#FBF to Cavs vs Hawks in April, an episode we have had in the bank ever since. During a respected yet short stint w/ the Wine & Gold we had a chance to get a few minutes w/ big man Larry Sanders. With this opportunity came a chance for us to get to know Larry on a more personal level: his creative mind, his future visions in the workplace ... he's a gamer (did you know?)! One thing is for certain however - as many have heard his story when it comes to the hardwood - Larry gives his honest truth here on RT (at that time). What was life like during his first run in The NBA, his time away from the game & the journey to come back. The appreciation & utmost respect from us to Larry will always stand - his story & time we spent, valued. So in light of a little #FBF we toss it back to the time spent w/ "Man Man". (Yes, beer pong to the MAX becomes a full blown topic) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As we made it very clear at the start of the off season - we were all about growth this summer. With that vision brings opportunities like the one we had today ... a LIVE edition of RT at the 2017 FOX NBA/NHL Seminar in Palos Verdes. After a Q&A, we decided to bring up former players turned NBA analysts for a little fun. So with that said, meet Sarah Kustok (Brooklyn Nets analyst), Brevin Knight (Memphis Grizzles analyst - Cavs fans, you know Brev) and finally, Raymond aka Marques Johnson (Milwaukee Bucks analyst - Movie: White Men Can't Jump). Short and sweet we allowed a room full of Broadcasters, Producers, Directors, Coordinating Producers and Executive Producers get an inside look at what RT is all about ... Whispering Angel & all. I'll be honest, our guests thought we were going to talk only hoops, but once we were done - they were asking: How do we get this on our team? .... Growth! #WhatTeamsGotNexLearn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted on Acast. See acast.c

'The Money Fight' was where it was at... was where Dr. J was at! So of course when the opportunity came to catch a quick flight to Vegas, we didn't pass it up. Thanks to the magic of technology, RJ was there as well! Dr. J & the RT crew dove into it all as we gathered at Total Wine & More for some spirits & stories. From Dr. J's days in the league, to time on the green now - from advice he'd give Richard about "life after hoops," to his take on "Trust the Process" in Philly & who he would claim as two of his biggest mentors, those who have been so instrumental in his life... Dr. J spoke & we listened (and now, so can you). A legend, always!! #DrJAutobiography Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices Hosted on Acast.

Our very first episode - non sports related (well, kind of) and it couldn't have been w/ 2 more enjoyable, hilarious individuals. As RJ will soon introduce you, he and his co-host for Episode 42 go way back. Friends of 15 years, Corinne Kaplan has a story to tell (and she doesn't disappoint - I'll let you find out yourself). Joining the 2 of them however: American Actor, Comedian, and TV personality, Lamorne Morris. New Girl, anyone? As it was once told: censorship of a comedian is death - so of course we follow suit and let Lamorne remain UF (hope you're ready) ... and it's more than worth it. From what his dinner that night was doing to his system, mixed w/ the crews drink of choice - to the inside scoop on New Girl, his new movie coming out - oh so soon - to where his professional journey currently lies ... the gang lets it all spill out (literally).

It's a first for Road Trippin - and we couldn't be more pumped about this. From the National Media Sports World, Dave & Sarina grace RT w/ their presence but as you'll soon learn - their stories, their advice & most of all personalities couldn't be more fitting. Both have incredible & unique journeys thru hard work & their own respective passion for sports that have landed them on the National stage & they have no plan of slowing down anytime soon. For Dave, covering 'Greats' like Kobe to now LeBron, his advice for aspiring young journalists as well as where he thinks the direction of sports media is headed - the dialogue is intriguing. For Sarina, you'd never guess what World Series Champions she grew up playing in the field with, her thoughts on Sports Media currently to how her role has changed on the National stage - not to mention how her journey got her to where she is .. it's a must listen. RT fam, enjoy not just 2 whom are well-respected & well-known in the National Media Sport

BIRTHDAY BOY hits 1,000 just hours after he stopped by for some RT fun as he & Rookie Keynan Middleton enlightened us all on what life in the Major League is all about. From Rookie traditions to Birthday traditions, life in the NBA & MLB couldn't be more different. First up w/ the Rook & who would have known, his 1st love - was hoops.

From what Pro Sport is the toughest, to his favorite athletes in the league today, to his love for Philly (Yes, he "trusts the process"), "Trouty is the best" & nothing short of it.

One week ago today the Road Trippin crew found themselves podding ... on a boat. That's right - in the Redondo Beach Harbor on the 'Body Glove' boat, thanks to The Meistrell's, the crew enjoyed laughs, plenty of stories & a lil wake at sunset. This weeks guest: JB Bickerstaff whom as you'll soon understand, goes way back w/ RJ! So the crew had lots to talk about as you can imagine but here are a few of the topics we think you'll enjoy a lot: JB's legacy in the hoops coaching world, his finals days w/ The Rockets, meeting his wife Nikki (Thanks to RJ's intro) and the infamous "Irish exits" that's JB was a part of .. it's all fair game! Life as "lil Bernie" to now the highly regarded & respected associate head coach that he is in the NBA, enjoy getting to know JB - he's one of a kind!Learn more about your ad choices.

Everything meaning: the value of mini sewing kits as it pertains to the red carpet, Doping Control as it pertains to Olympic (Gold) athletes like herself vs team sport athletes like RJ. Her future w/ skiing - is the time coming sooner as opposed to later where she hangs up the skis? ("I will go out on top ..." -Vonn) & of course we had to take advantage of having two pro athletes together, throwing some fun topics to compare/value: whose workout regimen would you prefer? Richard's or Lindsey's. Who has more stalkers?
