Full Show - Thursday, May 28th

from In The Loop

ITL reacts after another Houston Astros victory and debates whether Yordan Alvarez is still the only true hope keeping this team afloat—or if there are finally other legitimate signs emerging that could make Houston dangerous again. The guys discuss whether recent pitching improvements, lineup production, and the overall energy around the club are enough to believe the Astros may still have something left in them this season. The focus then shifts to the Houston Texans after David Montgomery spoke about what fans should expect from Nick Caley’s offense this year, leading ITL to debate whether Houston’s offensive identity could look much different moving forward. Around The NFL features reaction to Daniel Jones throwing at OTAs, conflicting perspectives between Kyler Murray and J. J. McCarthy regarding their relationship, and more awkward league storylines. ITL also reacts live as DeMeco Ryans speaks to the media for the first time during Texans OTAs, discussing what stood out and whether anything he said changed expectations surrounding the team. Later, C. J. Stroud addresses the media as well, with ITL debating whether the Texans quarterback sounds more confident, focused, and comfortable entering another season with heightened expectations. Lunch-Time Confessions turns chaotic after John Lopez admits his love for Black funerals before OG Lopez Buy or Sell returns to debate major sports takes and trends. ITL also breaks down whether the Texans are truly a legitimate Super Bowl contender or if expectations may be climbing too quickly for Houston. Figgy’s Mixtape wraps up the show with a throwback involving Sean Pendergast and John Harris accidentally interviewing a fake Willie Ammes, celebration of National Hamburger Day, and more bizarre internet stories. Plus, the QOTD asks listeners: what’s something you can say to a guy that you definitely cannot say to a woman?
