Spike’s gotten a lot of mileage out of humorously critiquing LeBron and JJ Redick’s “Mind the Game” pod, but perhaps he should be focusing more of his energy on Michael Porter Jr.’s “Curious Mike” product? Topics discussed:* Is Spike a hater for laughing at LeBron’s Internet-lauded NBA strategy podcast? What’s wrong with two dudes drinking fancy wine and talking hoops? * Why did Spike’s “LeBron caught himself in a lie” clip go this viral? * Is the broader media afraid to have fun with LeBron’s foibles?* LeBron’s child star origins on display* Michael Porter Jr. interviewed porn star Lana Rhoades and the results are very entertaining* “Poop cookies” and the controversy surrounding Porter Jr.’s Rhoades interview* A case of “locker room” talk infuriating segments of social media * Athletes as political/social omnivores
