Episode 85 – If You Build It, Gio Will Come!

The Lip starts off giving a “clue” as to his whereabouts just as the Hip once again reminds the audience of his eagle eye view of the Garden as well as ...Knicks Draft Lottery Party!!!  The guys can only pity the lowly Knicks for sinking (and depreciating) so low while reminding fans that finishing 3rd is still lucky and good!! The boys then talk about a few fanbases that have actual reason to be excited in Toronto and Milwaukee and which team poses the biggest threat to the Warriors dominance.  The Hip can only lament the state of the affairs with the Jets firing of the GM as the Lip has a little fun with the Hip’s prior statement of, “Negative media attention is finally not directed at the Jets!” The Hip jinxed them!!  This NY sports firing leads to the question… "How have the Mets not fired Mickey!" The Lip though reminds the listeners of a couple of “Joe” managers that never disciplined Robbie either.  A Bob Uecker reference opens the door for a plug for the Hip’s company as well as the Mets' downtrodden radio voice (He was more excited reading the ad!).  The Hip demonstrates the extreme dichotomy between the NY baseball teams while the Lip goes on a little bit of an MLB rant and how attendance keeps “depreciating.” The Lip gives a little Isles offseason preview and bemoans yet another Boston team in a championship game in the NHL. But JD is back Rangiz fans! “Oh baby!” The Hip busts out the tax fedora for a lesson in “depreciation,” followed by a dual HMOZ including, “Mike fell asleep again!” and the Hip’s “slurping” farewell to one of the most flamboyant Wrestlers to ever don a “gold” costume.

Episode 84 – Depreciating Assets

Hip and Lip (Chicago) storm their way back with a preview of the Hip’s impending voyage to the midwest! After the Lip gloats about his NCAA pick, the boys quickly transition into the NFL Draft which the Hip expresses his indifference to all of the coverage while expressing relief that for ONCE his beloved Jets are not the center of the “manure storm” (one guess which team is!). The Lip takes the reins to join all of those who are incredulous over that “team’s” 1st round selection (Eli and Peyton in a blender!). The Hip then gets into his element talking Majah League Baseball and Luke Voit’s prowess on the walking wounded Yankees! The wide ranging discussion covers the terrible Mets pitching (and the AMAZIN Jeff McNeil and Peter Alonso), the Hip’s skepticism about the Rays “false opener” strategy, the shockingly bad performances by “ace” pitchers and the last place Red Sox! The Hip then allows the Lip go into full “diarrhea of the mouth” mode after the Islanders’ disappointing beginning to their 2nd round series. The Lip partially attests it to the negative vibe of the Barclays but the Hip says, “shame on the fans” for allowing the building to be an issue. The boys have to talk a little NBA (right?) and the reasons for the stunning ratings decline (Where art thou Lebron?). Some uptucking baseball stats are the HMOZ and the Hip travels to a world renowned cocktail bar for his hipstah beer of da week (The H irony is so infused with citra!)

Episode 83 – Manure Storm

The Hip and the Lip “storm” (not red storm!) into the topic ruling the day (Corey Latimer!) and of course the tourney.  The Hip enjoys the dichotomy of reactions of the Dukes and Spudd..er uh Gardner Webbs (“thats there championship!”) while the Lip takes a shot at the Red Storm’s “bid” into the tournament or “the play in game!”  The Hip and Lip describe their “mid major” interest in the very bottom of the bottom left quadrant of the bracket which is due to a switch of alma mater allegiance!  The Hip “zigs instead of zags” with his selection of a tournament champion while the Lip declares himself a “Zionist,” but also throws a bone (or doom) to the LCC.  The boys then address the NFL trade “heard round East Rutherford” as the Hip speculates as to why Eli Manning repeatedly “passed up” opportunities to throw to the now former Giants superstar.  The Lip expressed his mixed emotions but lays the future of the team at the feet of the Bahston native GM.  The now under the radar Jets get mixed reviews from the Lip while the Hip says, “It's good that Leveon wasn’t tackled 200 times last year.”  The Lip has the hipster doctrine in full force for the Islanders and the Hip tells all you baseball fans to “set your alarms!”  The HMOZ is the nadir of the NBA (tanking) and with Hip fantasy advice tied into a feel good story involving a Tiger pitcher.

Episode 82 – Zig Zag Zion

The Hip and Lip come roaring back on the eve of….NFL FREE AGENCY!!  Well that got an immediate WGAS from the Hip so the boys prepare all of you for a potpourri of “frauds” from Paul Manafort to NCAA actors to John Tavares!  The Hip gives the Lip the obligatory time to give his Islander update as the Lip reveals the “climax” of the season may just be the John Tavares game (but hopefully not).  The Lip expresses his creeping pessimism about the Islanders due to their mediocre play over the last month as the Hip alludes to the tenuous Islander positioning for the playoffs.  The Hip moves on to express his muted enthusiasm for the upcoming NCAA tournament and the chances of his beloved Wolverines, while the Lip dumps a massive tub of cold water on the tourney by getting into the still unresolved scandal plaguing the NCAA despite the complete lack of coverage.  The Hip references the lull in sports but cannot hide his overwhelming exuberance for the return of the baseball despite the Lip being on a completely different wavelength (Too many HR’s!!).  An early abbreviated preview is capped off with two sleepers from the Hip (No not that Bieber!)  A sprinkle of impending CBA doom, a dash of Giants bashing, a hint of Andre Miller and our dude listeners just might find themselves doing a “double take.”

Episode 81 – (John’s) Happy Ending

Brad "The Hip" Polizzano conducts the chaos of the spasmodic and encyclopedic cacophony of Eric "The Lip" Lipman into this mesmerizing NY sports podcast masterpiece of our time.
