When there’s an ESPN + Adrian Wojnarowski driven controversy, Amin Elhassan and I delight in our ability to discuss the issue unfettered. And so we addressed this whole Woj + Danny Hurley + Lakers mess, while also talking about, what else? A Bay Area meetup that included many brilliant rationalists, featuring some of their peculiarities. Oh ya, and also the Boston Celtics.
Topics include but aren’t limited to…
Manifest Festival in Berkeley was such a unique setting. I run it all by a skeptical Amin
What’s with the Effective Altruists and polyamory?
Nate Silver as questions-besieged Nerd King
Do I love the Boston Celtics? I explain my affection for this much maligned now heavy NBA Finals favorite
Amin and I get into the absolutely bizarre Adrian Wojnarowski driven story where the Lakers seemed about to hire Danny Hurley (45 Minute Mark)
Was this a leverage play for Hurley? Or a different kind of Woj driven conquest?
How my being fired shaped Amin’s perception of the leading news breaker
