It's roughly midseason in the NBA and that means it's time for the second annual Jalen Rosé Midseason Awards! Chris and Lyndsay brought out the bubbles and once again as an ode to our old Pick & Pop Culture series, we're giving out awards and superlatives inspired by some of our favourite sitcoms. Tune in to out which Jalen takes the "Best Jalen" award this year, who is the messiest, and new awards such as the "Karl Marx Proletariat of the Year" award.

New year, same hosts, as Wine & Dime returns to discuss the continuing labour strife between the WNBAPA and the league including what the union's strike vote means, why the players have the most leverage possibly ever, the lack of trust between both parties, and how a strike ultimately hurts everyone. They close the episode by recapping all of the NBA news they missed.

Chris and Lyndsay are back, and popping open the Cava. They start with the messy breakup between Chris Paul and the Clippers, where Chris could wind up (Wolves?), and the general disaster that is the Los Angeles Clippers before hitting on the Suns connecting deeper with the Indigenous community in Arizona, Norman Powell the renaissance man, the state of North American sports ownership (James Dolan sucks, but private equity sucks worse), an update on the WNBA-WNBPA negotiations and the ever stranger landscape that is college athletics.
