Iguodala is an extremely intelligent guy and is about his people and community. He takes pride in education and learning. Also glad that he has a solid relationship with Jaylen Brown, Kyrie and other players that want to stand for something other than just being an NBA player. He’s the guy that other players should look up to

This is probably my fave podcast now. No gimmicks, no trying to go viral…Melo is just being his authentic self and it’s still insightful and entertaining. Love the variety of guests that are interviewed.

It's crazy how Melo's reputation amongst actual players is beyond solidified, while casuals and the media try to paint a completely different picture. I've yet to hear a single player have a bad thing to say about dude. You see the deference that a borderline HOFer like Iggy has for dude.

As a sixers fan I remember watching almost every game that Iguodala matched up with Melo and Melo used to dominate him like a mf. It was crazy. A lot of younger people have no idea how unstoppable Melo was in his prime

Melo has so much wisdom. Being max player who went through a journey in his last few years has given him a lot of perspective. He would make a great GM or VP of Basketball Ops.

What makes this the best podcast is the levity, calmness and informed takes and opinions. None of those crazy hot takes and click bait. But big homies, they did keep both OG and Bridges! Let’s go Knicks

Wow, no practice facility in Philly is crazy. Makes the practice interview hit even harder
