LeBron James the Cyborg, Tiger Woods Dominance, Usain Bolt the Flash | 7.16
On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones is joined by Spencer Hall, host of the Shutdown Fullcast podcast, to discuss "futuristic" athletes. The show begins with Bo telling the story about the first time he heard about Usain Bolt (4:59) and why a gold medal wasn't an option when running against Bolt during his prime (9:39). They move on to reminiscing about Randy Moss, where Spencer talks about the first time he saw Moss play at Marshall vs Army (13:38) and why he may be the most perfect football player who has ever lived (17:50). After the break, Bo and Spencer converse about Cam Newton being a one-man team at Auburn (25:48) and why Newton still would've gone #1 overall in the 2011 NFL Draft despite the future Hall of Famers in it (28:42). They round out the show by saying why LeBron James is the best open court basketball player ever (33:00) and why we'll never see dominance quite like Tiger Woods ever again (45:57) and why the ceiling does not exist for Victor Wembanyama. (51:44)

On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones discusses LeBron James and unveils the first few members of his 'top 25 athletes of the last 25 years' list. Bo begins the show by saying why it's always been about LeBron James first until the Los Angeles Lakers traded for Luka Doncic (3:36) and if there's a resolution that would serve either side if LeBron is trying to leave the team (12:17). Next, Bo transitions to naming #25 (18:15) through #21 (38:05) of his top 25 athletes of the last 25 years list, including three football stars, an NBA champion and one of the best home run hitters of all-time.

Will Knicks Make NBA Finals with Mike Brown, Steelers Exploiting TJ Watt | 7.7
On today's episode of The Right Time, Bomani Jones discusses the New York Knicks hiring Mike Brown and T.J. Watt holding out. Bo begins the show by saying why this Mike Brown hire is interesting (1:59) because the Knicks should win the Eastern Conference with Jayson Tatum and Tyrese Haliburton injured (2:45). Bo continues by explaining why the Knicks do have an unreal amount of pressure on them and the clock is already ticking on this roster (10:28). Transitioning to the NFL, Bo talks about T.J. Watt holding out because he wants a Myles Garrett-type contract (18:25) and that this current Pittsburgh Steelers team reminds him of the Philadelphia Eagles 'Dream Team' because their roster is full of aging vets - which does not work in today's NFL (25:22). And finally, we have another round of If You Haven't Heard stories involving why Americans are sleeping less, billionaires going crazy and Gen Z having less sex (32:15). Then Bomani listens to some voicemails about the craziest thing you've seen someone do to get their money back. (44:34)
