Hour 3: Turang Snub, Wisconsin Time Capsule & USA

The 414 Hour opens with Alex Strouf trying to rap his way into the segment before Ben replays Jesse Nelson’s Boston-flavored intro attempts and Kyle Wallace texts in his approval. Ben and Strouf return to Giannis’ farewell and argue about whether the Bucks and Giannis should have accepted the breakup sooner, with callers comparing the fan base to kids in a divorce. The hour then turns to Brice Turang’s All-Star snub, leading Strouf to call for fan voting to be abolished while Ben pitches half-baked fixes like market-adjusted voting and captain’s picks. Catastrophic with C-Katt asks what Wisconsin should put in a 250-year time capsule, with pull tabs emerging as the strongest answer. Brian Bulaga joins for a Discount Liquor soccer update, explaining the strange timing of Flo Balogun’s reinstatement, why the decision still got the call right, and how important Balogun is for the U.S. against Belgium.
