Steiny & Guru are giddy about the San Jose Sharks getting the No. 1 overall pick and the promise of them using it on a homegrown Macklin Celebrini. YES, we're talking (some) Hockey today. Plus, Steiny is all the way out on the Warriors getting a superstar that's old. Guru wants to do it for Stephen Curry. How will it all work?!

Hour 1 - Steiny & Guru spend the open on the biggest name to come to the Bay Area in recent memory: Macklin Celebrini! He will be the No. 1 overall NHL pick, which the Sharks just won in last night's draft lottery. How much does that excitement of a fresh, star-studded, 17 year old move sports fans? Every team is looking for one!

Hour 3 - Guru makes an incendiary statement about the future of the Golden State Warriors and Stephen Curry. Will they be able to have both success and nostalgia on the roster in a year or two?! These are the important questions.

Hour 4 - Final hour before Steiny takes off for his guys trip. Madness ensues. Guru's stories end with tales of defeat. Plus, the Warriors might not want to get any older.

Steiny & Guru dig into the Warriors young core and why, looking at what's succeeding in the Western Conference Playoffs, they need to be empowered. It's Golden State's ONLY choice!

Steiny & Guru breakdown why the Minnesota Timberwolves might be the next mold for the NBA and why the Warriors need to examine how their roster was constructed!

San Jose Sharks just earned the No. 1 overall pick and the consensus choice is Macklin Celebrini, son or Warriors staff member Rick. Can he change hockey in the Bay Area and return a homegrown STAR to a town that hasn't had one in a long time?

Steiny & Guru try to determine why this city isn't a baseball town anymore. It wasn't long ago that it was. Plus, Brian Sabean, the architect of the dynasty weighs in and Brian Geltzeiler tells us why the Warriors aren't in as much trouble as we think.

Hour 1 - What are the San Francisco Giants KNOWN for? What has happened in the past eight years since 2016? This is what Steiny & Guru try to get to the bottom of. It's an issue!

Hour 2 - 3x World Series champ and architect of the Giants dynasty, Brian Sabean joins the show to set the tone about what winning baseball looks like. The current Giants can't find it. They need to figure out how to turn this city into a baseball town, again! Easier said than done.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru chat with Sirius XM NBA Radio's Brian Geltzeiler about why the panic in Golden State shouldn't be overblown. They're not in THAT bad of a position, or are they? Plus, Guru met Rickey Henderson last night. He's on cloud nine.

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru examine the NBA playoffs and why we don't know bleep about bleep sometimes. Anthony Edwards is MJ, Jokic is tired, and size is WIRED. Where do the Warriors fit? Plus, can somebody please tell the front office to handle Draymond Green like Pat Riley did Jimmy Butler?

Steiny & Guru when/why The City turned from a baseball town in a non-baseball town. There's been a switch flipped in the past eight years and fans lend their voice to the conversation. We figure it out, together.

Steiny & Guru try to get to the bottom of WHY San Francisco Giants fans are as enthusiastic, associative, and affiliated with the team as they were, just 10 years ago! That's a LONG time in sports to be irrelevant.

Steiny & Guru speak to the hear of the Giants fanbase about what's happened since 2016 in San Francisco. Barry Bonds and the greatness of the past two decades might be the reason.

Steiny & Guru discuss how the San Francisco Giants have fallen so far out of relevancy that they've come virtually irrelevant. They're now six games below .500 and there's no urgency!

Steiny & Guru have some fun on a Monday after watching Netflix's Roast of Tom Brady aka their own roast. We have a few comedians in our midst, it appears. Plus, Klay Thompson is linked to Orlando, but the interest is MUTUAL! That's a signal he might not return, but the divorce could be good for both. Warriors can't get any older, can they?!

Hour 1 - Shams Charania dropped a bomb about Klay Thompson. Steiny & Guru wonder if it's realistic, but also how it could help the Warriors. Also, it's a day for the roasters. Finally, Steiny has a massive takeaway about the NBA playoffs and it's not good for Golden State.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru wrap today with a discussion surrounding Klay Thompson and why bringing him back signals the Warriors are not done yet with this era of themselves. Why aren't they DONE, yet?

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru allow the audience to have at it. Who has the best jokes, cracks, criticisms, etc. gets the floor, Tom Brady Roast style. There's some zingers! Plus, why is it just not hitting us that Klay Thompson might no longer be in a Warriors uniform?

Hour 2 - Steiny & Guru dive into a variety of areas around the theme of the day: Roasting! JJ Redick picked on the wrong program director. Anthony Edwards has the boys in their feels. Finally, Draymond Green speaks (in a recruiting fashion) about Kevin Durant.

In honor of Tom Brady's Netflix live roast, Steiny & Guru let the listeners do their worst. Some good, some bad, some ugly, all good-hearted and FUNNY!

Steiny & Guru play off of Draymond Green's criticism of Phoenix for not maximizing Kevin Durant and wonder if the Warriors might be able to.

Steiny & Guru debate how much the Magic courting Klay Thompson could hurt or help the Golden State Warriors move into whatever the next iteration of the team becomes! They could also stay in the same place...

Steiny & Guru discuss the report from Shams Charania that the Orlando Magic, after getting eliminated, have been linked to the Warriors guard Klay Thompson and how he might also want to head east.

It's the anniversary of the 'We Believe' Warriors, but it feels like those days might be upon us in the near future. That's where the San Francisco Giants are and remain, hoping for magic. Plus, Guru is no longer a Pirates fan. Who wants to adopt him? Not Milwaukee because the boys fry Patrick Beverley. Also, why do you listen to the broadcasters for your team and what makes them good/bad?!

Hour 1 - Guru is officially an MLB free agent. His fandom is up for grabs, but who wants to adopt him?! Patrick Beverley is an idiot and Steiny regales us with his 'We Believe' tales from a time since past, on the anniversary of Golden State upsetting the Dallas Mavericks in 2007.

Hour 2 - Steiny & Guru wonder why the Awful Announcing list of NBA broadcasters, plus Charles Barkley's free agency, has us feeling a certain way about our viewing experience. Who we allow to narrate the games we watch, the teams we love, says something about who we are and the fan we are.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru unveil their NEW segment, question of the week. It's as mature as you might imagine. Plus, why are the Warriors starting to feel like the San Francisco Giants? It's a reality that could be.

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru stumble into the narrators of sports. Why do particular voices, styles, tandems, teams, resonate with an audience? OUR audience chimes in because we've been blessed here in the Bay Area with a long list of incredible broadcasters.

The Giants have moved on from the dynasty that was the early 2010's , what if the Warriors are going through the same transitionary period?

Steiny& Guru get into the Awful Announcing poll of the Golden State Warriors broadcast team in comparison to others and what we WANT in a broadcast crew.

Steiny & Guru are trying to find Guru a new baseball team to root for, in light of the Pittsburgh Pirates being on the outside looking in of competitive play.

Stein reveals the last time he rooted for the Warriors -- 2007! It was the greatest time to be a Warriors fan, maybe even more so than the dynasty.

Steiny & Guru grapple with the fandom in Golden State and the attachment people have to aging superstars in the NBA, as a whole. There is a transition going on and not just with the Warriors. Four big boys might be available, but which one moves the needle. Plus, Guru has a message for fans: You don't have to fan if you don't want to.

Hour 2 - Steiny & Guru try to figure out who has the greatest grasp on Warriors culture, between the Big 3. It might not be as easy as it once was for players to fit in. That means big boy free agents, or trade targets, might be less inclined to join or rejoin (if you're Kevin Durant, you know who he is).

Hour 3 - Who CAN'T the Warriors move off of? Which player is the one you'd include in any move? Steiny & Guru examine the opposite sides of the offseason spectrum.

Hour 1 - LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Paul George, Joel Embiid. Steiny & Guru put every superstar on the table and force the fans to choose. Which one would you risk it all, for? Stephen Curry is going to need some help and this might be the last, best summer to help him get it.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru discuss the unknown for the Golden State Warriors and the highs vs. lows that should be determined by the inflection point that is this offseason. Don't they HAVE to choose a direction or is that a can that gets kicked down the road?

Steiny & Guru debate how difficult is is to PLAY with the Big 3, both on and off the court. Is the biggest hang up in Golden State the Curry-Dray-Klay combination itself because we thought that was the biggest draw!

Steiny & Guru run through the probability of particular individuals and how they'd fit with the Warriors culture. What are the Warriors biggest needs and why can't they figure out the clearest path, right now?

Steiny & Guru try to determine how aggressive Joe Lacob will be about a list of superstars the boys have identified. The Warriors are in need of a shakeup for the show that they're trying to be next season.

Steiny & Guru debate which SUPERSTAR should be the biggest priority for the Golden State Warriors this offseason. We can dream, right?!

The Warriors have to become a destination. For trades, free agents, the future. It is important this summer determines their direction and how to become a SHOW again. Does that mean Jonathan Kumigna or Draymond Green has to go? LBJ or KD might be on their way in. Plus, 3x NBA Champion Danny Green joins Steiny & Guru.

Hour 1 - Steiny & Guru see the big swing being an old flame for Golden State. Steiny was also hit by Draymond's last podcast. Why is it such a BIG thing? You'll have to weigh in with the boys and find out.

Hour 2 - Steiny & Guru debate why Draymond Green appears to be sucking life out of the Warriors, while still contributing in other ways. Is it enough? Plus, players that get bounced from the postseason shouldn't be able to talk about the ones still in it. Well, unless you're Draymond.

Hour 3 - Would the fans feel better about either of the two titans that have been bounced from the postseason? Steiny & Guru are hesitant on one, but not the other. Plus, Audacy NBA Insider & 3x NBA Champion Danny Green weighs in.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru try to figure out why KD or LeBron would want to join Golden State. Are the Dubs closer to a title than the teams in front of them? There are some teams that don't want to blow it up - Warriors are one of them.

Steiny & Guru kick around the possibility of the Warriors acquiring a marquee talent in Kevin Durant. Why would Durant want to come back? Is his relationship with the fans too difficult to mend? Draymond Green might also make things complicated.

3x NBA Champion and Audacy NBA Insider Danny Green joins Steiny & Guru and reveals how realistic and possible the Warriors taking a swing at LeBron James and Kevin Durant is, this summer. Golden State needs a golden move!

Steiny & Guru wonder how patient both the fanbase and the Warriors are going to be with their 21-year old forward Jonathan Kuminga. Would Golden State be willing to move off of him for a big boy or do they BELIEVE in his promise?

Steiny & Guru debate what the WORTH of Draymond Green still is if his actions will not change. There's an example of why that's the case in Green's latest podcast, but will the Warriors actually be able to do anything?

Steiny & Guru wonder why Draymond Green is so loud towards the Suns, Nurkic, and Rudy Gobert after the NBA first round conclusion. Can't he READ the ROOM?

Steiny & Guru identify the TOP priority for the offseason and why Draymond Green's latest podcast feels very strange because he's criticizing postseason players when he's at home, watching.

In Hour 3, Steiny and Evan (in for Guru) discuss how the playoffs to this point may have changes Warriors fans' perspectives on where the Warriors are and how they may be able to get back into contention next season.

Steiny and Evan's (in for Guru) full show from Tuesday, April 30th. The guys discuss how this NBA postseason might suggest that a changing of the guard is coming for the league. Can the Warriors take advantage?

In Hour 1, Steiny and Evan (in for Guru) discuss what the expectations are for the Warriors entering next season, wonder if it's worth it for Golden State to chase any of the veteran stars who are already facing the offseason, and more.

In Hour 2, Steiny and Evan (in for Guru) continue to break down the changing landscape from around the NBA. Is this offseason going to be a turning point and can the Warriors take advantage? How does Jonathan Kuminga factor in?

Steiny and Evan question the Warriors going after another star. 

Steiny & Guru debate whether or not Deebo Samuel is worth it moving forward and how close the 49ers came to dealing at the NFL Draft. They brought in 10 fresh faces, but how many of them are ACTUALLY going to contribute? Ricky Pearsall better be a hit. Plus, the NBA Playoffs have the boys heads spinning.

Hour 1 - Steiny & Guru react with the fanbase to the newest 10 San Francisco 49ers and what route it indicates for the franchise. Brandon Aiyuk & Deebo Samuel are on the team, but probably not for the long haul. That puts MORE pressure on the shoulders of everyone to Get. It. Done. This. Season.

Hour 2 - Steiny & Guru try to put themselves in Deebo Samuel's shoes. How would you feel if an employer brought in your eventual replacement? Would it make you work harder or blow things up? This is the choice Deebo will have to make it appears in what could be his final season in San Francisco.

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru assess how much mounting pressure there is on the upcoming 2024 49ers season, Deebo, Aiyuk, and KYLE Shanahan. It feels like there wasn't much risk taken in this year's draft, but is that the reflection of a larger issue?!

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru wrap their conversation about how both Aiyuk & Deebo are worth MORE to the 49ers than to other teams. That's the reason they're still on the team. Plus, Stiny puts Guru's theory of "look good, play good" to the test.

Steiny & Guru try to evaluate Deebo Samuel's value both as a player and as a contract. Perhaps that's why the 49ers didn't move off of him during the NFL Draft. Would that make Deebo angry and how does that affect a contract season?

Steiny & Guru wonder why Kyle Shanahan sounds complacent while referencing the latest draft class and also discussing the 49ers chances to win a Super Bowl.

Steiny & Guru listen to Kyle Shanahan address the NFL Draft and the offseason, wondering if the 49ers made up any ground in the Super Bowl contention category. Did they get better and if not, is that an issue?

Steiny & Guru discuss Deebo Samuel's reaction to the 49ers flipping from Aiyuk, to HIM, in regards to trade rumors. Why is Deebo the odd man out? That might impact his play this upcoming season.

Steiny & Guru wonder what the draft from the San Francisco 49ers told us about their future direction and what the picks mean for the CURRENT players, specifically Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel.

Steiyn & Guru are ALL about Draft Day. 49ers select a non-expected wideout from Florida who the team is gushing about, so why aren't the fans? It's one pick, but it says a lot. Especially, when the two WRs on the roster are still in trade talks. Plus, is Stephen Curry truly the most clutch player in the NBA? He just won the award.

Hour 1 - Steiny & Guru open today with the BRAND NEW 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall and what that says about John Lynch & Kyle Shanahan. 49ers now have an extra weapon on the outside, but does Deebo Samuel or Brandon Aiyuk now need to go? There are ramifications we need to discuss.

Hour 2 - Kyle Shanahan has type. Don't we all. Steiny & Guru have theirs. Their type is different from the 49ers, who took a player that was unexpected in the first round. What does that say about the direction they're going in, plus Super Bowl aspirations?

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru chat with NBC Sports Bay Area 49ers beat writer Jennifer Lee Chan about the 49ers newest wide receiver Ricky Pearsall. Why can he be an immediate impact on day one? Well, he'll likely need to be!

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru look towards Day Two of the NFL Draft and the needs for the 49ers that could lead them to where they need to go: New Orleans for the Super Bowl.

Steiny and Guru get into a discussion about what Pearsall brings to the table and how his blocking ability could become something to behold for the Niners going forward.

NBC Sports Bay Area's 49ers reporter Jennifer Lee Chan chats with Steiny & Guru about the 49ers first round selection Ricky Pearsall and the ramifications of it, in reference to the two starting wideouts - Brandon Aiyuk & Deebo Samuel.

Steiny & Guru react to the shocking, but understandable selection of Ricky Pearsall at No. 31 by the 49ers. Was it because he was the highest player on the board or because of the position he plays? It might mean Deebo Samuel gets traded.

Steiny & Guru wonder if Ricky Pearsall (WR) makes the 49ers better for an important, win-now season that they hope will result in a Super Bowl. Why would John Lynch and Kyle Shanahan make that move?

Steiny & Guru examine why the 49ers selection of a wide receiver in the first round is ACTUALLY a win for Brandon Aiyuk and almost ensures that he going to be in San Francisco for a long time.

Steiny & Guru react to the San Francisco 49ers drafting Ricky Pearsall at No. 31 in last night's NFL Draft. It HAS to mean something! Why else would Kyle Shanahan want him?

Hour 1 - Steiny & Gur ubegin draft day with a conversation about the anticipation of the event and the hypothetical scenarios around the 49ers first round selection. Would they get a QB, with Brock Purdy solidified? What is Brandon Aiyuk worth? Plus, the boys have THEIR OWN Drafts of anonymous topics, you don't want to miss it!

Hour 2 - Why should Steiny & Guru believe that Kyle Shanahan is capable of using his first round pick correctly? The boys dig into his draft history and which HITS have been integral to the current composition of the roster.

Hour 3 - Steiny & Guru chat with Brad Graham of 'The SF Niners' about the upcoming NFL Draft and the key spots for San Francisco to target. Also, how are the 49ers positioning themselves for the future? They have BIG decisions to make in the coming years.

Hour 4 - Steiny & Guru evaluate the 49ers weapons and who is more replaceable between Deebo Samuel & Brandon Aiyuk? To be honest, it's a tough sell either way. Plus, the boys round out their "SG Drafts of 2024."

The SF Niners own Brad Graham joins Steiny & Guru to break down the 49ers upcoming draft tonight, why Brandon Aiyuk should stick around, and why the priority should be the DEFENSE.

Steiny & Guru discuss the possibility of Brandon Aiyuk no longer being a San Francisco 49er and what the ramifications of that move would be for a franchise with Super Bowl aspirations.

Steiny & Guru debate which position the 49ers should target at No. 31, with regards to a list that's been circulating on social media about the positions that are HIT on, the most!
