Episode 128: Bradley Beal 2 Featuring Hasan Minhaj

The Old Man and the Three with JJ Redick and Tommy Alter

Today's episode is special. Not only do we have Washington Wizards star, Bradley Beal. But we're also joined by comedian, writer, director Hasan Minhaj.

Our first interview with Bradley, has had quite the summer and we cover a lot with him. Topics include: his new contract extension with The Washington Wizards, why he chose to stick around with The Wizards and how he believes they can get back to winning in Washington, discussing the definition of a "superstar" in this league, how he's grown as a player, how he feels about playing with Kristaps Porziņģis, marveling at the deep 3-pointers taken by Stephen Curry, Trae Young and Damian Lillard, the media's unfair criticisms of Russell Westbrook and the misconception of him as a teammate, how Brad has developed and grown as a leader, and much more.

Then we transition to a very deep and philosophical conversation with Hasan Minhaj. Topics include: Hasan and JJ's love of their minivans, how he went about producing his new Netflix stand-up special, "The King's Jester", Hasan's interest in what metric of success NBA players value the most, how JJ and Hasan deal with the aggregation machine and the pros and cons of going 'viral', a very sincere conversation about male friendships, why Stephen Curry is the best 'performer' in The NBA, what NBA players and other celebrities owe their fans, Hasan on what actual winning means to him and so much more.

We're excited to share this one and hope you enjoy!
