H3: Entertainment Page, Greg Wyshynski, Will Dawkins

The Sports Junkies celebrate their 30th anniversary with a lively episode packed with entertainment news, sports analysis, and guest appearances. The show kicks off with a promotional segment for the upcoming live event in Dewey Beach, May 22nd, featuring hosts and special guests like Awad and Will Dawkins. The entertainment segment dives into the public feud between podcasters Alex Cooper and Alex Earl, exploring accusations of 'ambulance chasing' and the drama surrounding Cooper’s rise from raunchy podcast fame to mainstream success. The hosts also discuss the controversy around Sidney Sweeney’s role in Euphoria, including a provocative scene involving role-playing as a baby and dog, and the long-ago sexual assault allegations against Katy Perry by Ruby Rose, which have reignited public debate. A fascinating story unfolds about Adam Jacobs, a 59-year-old concert archivist who secretly recorded over 10,000 live shows, including Nirvana’s debut in 1989, and is now releasing them for free—an internet treasure trove for music fans. The episode then shifts to sports, with NHL writer Greg Wyshynski joining to discuss Alex Ovechkin’s uncertain future with the Washington Capitals. Despite the team’s playoff elimination, Wyshynski argues Ovechkin is likely returning for one more season, citing his love for the game, team chemistry, and the possibility of a quiet farewell. The conversation wraps with Wizards GM Will Dawkins, who defends the team’s 17-win season as part of a deliberate three-year rebuild, highlights the development of young players, and confirms Anthony Davis is expected to suit up for the Wizards next season. Dawkins also addresses concerns about defense, expressing confidence in the team’s future growth and draft strategy.
