They also get into Charles Barkley’s important questions about Inside the NBA on ESPN, Cam Newton vs. Stephen A., and a new segment that aims to follow the many Democrats who could run for president in 2028 (7:40). Finally, they discuss Jerry Jones’s decision to trade Micah Parsons away from the Dallas Cowboys before seemingly forgetting his name, a final Cracker Barrel update, a Media Piss Test, and some more tortured acronym nominations (32:15).
