That's a joke for the visual audience. Sorry Dan. Plus, Sean McVay doesn't seem too excited about the Rams' pick of Ty Simpson, Jalen Brunson, and the New York Knicks couldn't finish off CJ McCollum's Atlanta Hawks, the Blazers have a HUGE game at home against the Spurs, and eventually Rudy Gobert.

"James was terrible tonight, through and through." Dan says we'll get to the NBA now, but we need approximately 8 more minutes on something else first.

Hilarious, sharp, and full of boundless energy, Dulcé Sloan takes the reins this episode, and Dan is along for the ride. They revisit her climb to success and her many, many jobs along the way. Dulcé began her career as an actor (the best goose you’ll ever see, by the way) and candidly tells Dan how others pushed her to dive deep into comedy, leading her to the quintessential comedy dream job, "The Daily Show"… only to realize it was just another job, too. She and Dan also talk about politics and their place in her comedy, identity, and the assumptions thrust upon you for simply being a visible Black woman in entertainment.
