Luka's Ex Lost It, RC Fires Back & Mike Takes NYC | In the Building | EP. 619

from In The Building · host Bleav + Mike Taylor

Mike joins the show live from Hoboken after spending his first day exploring New York City. From a subway delay that derailed plans to visit the infamous Bone Museum to wandering through Manhattan and soaking in the city's energy, Mike shares why New York remains one of his favorite places in America. He also previews his NBC Studios tour, debates whether to wear Spurs gear around Knicks fans, and talks about why Hoboken might be one of the coolest cities he's ever visited. Back home, the guys dive into one of the biggest San Antonio stories of the week as RC Buford publicly pushes back against Mayor Gina Ortiz Jones over Project Marvel, arguing the city has already spoken. They also react to Luka Dončić's ex-fiancée reportedly seeking a massive financial settlement and reduced visitation, discuss the changing economics of NFL running backs, Mike's renewed optimism for the Cowboys after training camp, and why Major League Baseball has become too dependent on analytics.
