Morning Round Up | June 30, 2026

In this segment of The Morning X, Crash kicks off the show with a heartbreaking, vehicular confession right before his vacation. The guys then discuss the soaring Mega Millions jackpot and reveal exactly why they refuse to trust their own co-workers with a lottery pool. After reacting to a poignant and devastating interview from an NFL legend, they pivot to a highly scrutinized on-air fail from an LA sports reporter. Plus, find out what expensive World Cup purchase Crash made that he isn't even going to use, and stick around for a public service announcement directing international tourists to the neon-lit location of Atlanta's absolute best chicken wings.
