Sleeping with Celebrities

Exploring the Washington Wizards, the NBA’s Most Ambien Team, with Jamel Johnson

July 29, 2026·50 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Jamel Johnson is a DC native and has been following the Wizards his whole life. He’s seen the rise and fall of Gilbert Arenas, the arrival and departure of John Wall, and everything from Gheorge Muresan to Muggsy Bogues, all without an NBA title in Jamel’s lifetime. Mid-Range is both the title of his new comedy album and the name of type of jump shot he hopes the team can nail as it heads into a new season with number one overall pick, AJ Dybantsa. Look, sports can be exciting and excitement doesn’t lend itself well to falling asleep. But again, we’re talking about the Washington Wizards, so you should be fine. Will you go on to have dreams of Elvin Hayes and Wes Unseld? Well, look, we can’t be responsible for that. Listen to Jamel Johnson's latest stand-up album, Mid-Range, on YouTube or the streaming service of your choice.
