Hello! It's the podcast that may still be celebrating in the streets of NYC by the time you read this. Today, Katie and the Casualties toast the New York Knicks, Hello Kitty, Isabella, Colin Quinn, JP, Stavvy, Sam, Timothee, and all of the Knicks faithful for bringing home an NBA championship, and get into Isabella's rollercoaster of emotions and postgame experiences, the Game Four comeback, the Game Five clincher, Jalen Brunson's legendary status, Monica McNutt's comments about Taylor Swift in Game Four and Jalen's defense of her, the Knicks fans in the streets, their mayor, their bagels, and the pope, and whether anyone's opinions of Victor Wembanyama changed during the Finals. Then, the team breaks down the US Men's Team's 4-1 victory over Paraguay in the World Cup opener, the energy around the watch parties, the cheers, the flag-waving, and the reasons to believe we may actually have a chance this year, the commentary teams in English vs. Spanish, Alexi Lalas, and Rebecca Lowe's reaction to him dropping "The W Word" on American TV, the joys of watching foreign fans enjoy American culture and why THAT is the greatest possible display for the country's 250th birthday, the opposite of that and the UFC White House event, and Eric Trump reportedly fishing for insider betting information, the Stanley Cup Final and the Hurricanes wrapping up a championship in real time during recording, Carter Hart being no match the power of Bussi, a look at the Men's College World Series through the lens of the ten greatest names in the tournament this week, and a special nod to Auburn's Ja'Kobe Tharp, who happened to just become the fastest hurdler in world history on a Wednesday afternoon. Then, Katie and the Casualties wrap the show with What to Watch in sports this week, from a World Cup showdown with the Socceroos and the US Open at Shinnecock Hills, to a NASCAR road race on a naval base.
