Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with mounting injuries for the Vikings. Their starting QB, a key running back and now right tackle Brian O'Neill are all banged up. Plus some thoughts on Quinn Hughes and Dylan Larkin, who have nowhere to hide now that NHL training camps have started. 7:00: Timberwolves GM Matt Lloyd joins the show and offers great insights into the team's roster-building plan as well as how the LaMelo Ball trade came together. 36:00: The Lynx return to action for a critical stretch.
Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with Wednesday perhaps being the final game in Twins-Yankees history played under MLB's unfair economic system.

Do they need to trade Joe Ryan in the offseason? Rand says yes. 6:00: Former Penn State assistant football coach Jay Paterno, son of Joe Paterno, joins Rand for a discussion of where college sports are headed.

Star Tribune columnist Patrick Reusse and host Michael Rand take you on a football journey. It was a tale of two halves of the weekend and a tale of two halves for the Vikings. Ultimately, a win over the Packers was a balm that helped sooth everything after a bad Gophers loss on Saturday.
Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with the Rams getting crushed 27-7 by the 49ers in Australia. Did the teams' travel plans impact how they played, or are the Rams not who we thought they were? Plus Rand begs the Vikings to do one thing Sunday and examines an interesting subplot to the Wolves' youth movement. 10:00: SKOR North's Judd Zulgad joins Rand to break down what Quinn Hughes might be thinking as Wild training camp approaches. 30:00: Is the Twins' infield defense getting better?

It's a great time of year for optimism. 40:00: Quinn Hughes and the Twins.
Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with a common sense guideline that the NCAA should follow when determining which athletes are eligible. Plus a Twins comeback win that keeps them at least on the fringes of the playoff race. 8:00: La Velle E. Neal III joins Rand for a spirited discussion of where things stand with Quinn Hughes.
