Why Tiki Would Take Stefanski Over Harbaugh | Evan & Tiki

The discussion centers on QB development, staff building, and long term upside versus the comfort of a proven track record.

Joe B Erupts: Fire Everyone! | Evan & Tiki

Joe B joins Evan and Tiki for a must-hear, no-filter interview as Black Monday fallout hits full force. Joe unloads on the Jets keeping Aaron Glenn after a historically brutal finish, calling it one of the most embarrassing stretches of football he’s ever seen. The conversation dives into why this coaching staff can’t be trusted to develop a young quarterback, what the Jets should do with the No. 2 pick, and whether drafting a franchise QB into this situation is setting him up to fail. Joe also lays out his blueprint for fixing the roster, from adding a real veteran quarterback to overhauling a broken defense, plus his thoughts on Rex Ryan, Mike McCarthy, Kliff Kingsbury, and why this job still isn’t attractive to top coaches. The interview wraps with Super Bowl predictions, Mets frustration, and classic Joe B rants that hit like a fastball.

The Unkillable Sign-Off: Brandon Tierney’s Final Stand at WFAN! | BT

In a deeply personal and raw final hour, Brandon Tierney delivers his ultimate sign-off from the legendary WFAN. The segment kicks off with a surprise call from BT’s biggest fan and toughest critic—his father—who takes listeners on a 25-year trip through BT’s career: from packing up for Allentown to the drive-time battles in San Francisco, and finally, his "dream fulfilled" return to New York. BT reflects on the "unrelenting drive" that defined his run, acknowledging that while his time in the midday slot is ending due to station shifts (the return of Craig Carton), he leaves with his head high and his competitive fire unquenched. He shares his pride in sharing studios with titans like Stephen A. Smith, calling Knicks games at the Garden, and building the "Unkillable" brand with co-host Sal Licata. It’s a tear-filled, high-energy goodbye to the city he loves, ending not with a whimper, but with a promise that the next chapter will be his biggest yet.

"Clinical Morons": Rick Pitino Slams Early FAN Callers! | BT

In a wide-ranging, high-octane interview, Hall of Famer Rick Pitino joins Brandon Tierney to discuss the state of St. John's basketball and his storied career. Pitino gets brutally honest about his current squad, admitting they lack the veteran dominance of last year's team and issuing a public challenge to Bryce Hopkins to become an "alpha dog" or risk his NBA dreams. The conversation turns fiery and nostalgic as Pitino recounts a "hysterical" story from the birth of WFAN, remembering how "clinical moron" callers wanted him fired while his Knicks were in first place. The Coach also settles New York's greatest debates, naming Pearl Washington and Kenny Anderson as the ultimate handles and Chris Mullin as the city’s premier marksman. To wrap it up, BT shares a legendary personal story of an all-night bar session with Pitino that felt like a scene straight out of The Godfather.

Beyond the Math: A-Rod Slams "Nerds" Taking Over the Yankee Dugout! | BT

In a massive, wide-ranging interview, Alex Rodriguez joins Brandon Tierney to deliver a masterclass on the current state of the game. A-Rod doesn't pull any punches, declaring the Yankees' organizational hitting philosophy "absolutely broken" and critiquing the development of Anthony Volpe, arguing the team is forcing a "little guy" to play a "big boy game" that neuters his best assets. The two discuss the ticking clock on Aaron Judge’s prime, the criteria for signing free agents like Cody Bellinger, and the "sad" takeover of data-driven analytics that has sidelined traditional baseball people. A-Rod also shares intimate reflections on his HBO documentary, the healing process of turning 50, and hilarious behind-the-scenes stories about David Ortiz and his relationship with the "2009 Homeboys." From Pete Alonso's exit from the Mets to his own refusal to manage in today's patient-less league, this is A-Rod at his most transparent and passionate.

BT’s Final Ride: One Last Show on the WFAN Front Lines! | BT

It’s the end of the road for a New York radio stalwart. In this emotional and high-energy final broadcast, Brandon Tierney officially signs off as a full-time host on WFAN. Refusing to go out with a whimper, BT brings in the big guns with A-list guests Alex Rodriguez and Rick Pitino to celebrate a career built on "emptying the tank" every single day. BT doesn't hold back on his final sports takes either, ripping into the "inexcusable" coaching decisions of Tom Thibodeau and standing firm as an Aaron Glenn supporter despite the Jets' defensive "train wreck." He reflects on his journey from Brooklyn Little League to the Division 1 mound and finally to the pinnacle of New York sports talk. While the day is bittersweet, BT leaves with his head high, delivering a masterclass in authenticity and connection, proving that while this chapter is closing, the "Unkillable" brand is only just beginning.

Hal’s Pity Party: Steinbrenner Cries Poor While Dodgers Act Like Yankees! | Marc Malusis

Filling in for BT & Sal, Marc "Moose" Malusis delivers a blistering critique of the Yankees' 2025-2026 offseason, starting with Hal Steinbrenner’s bizarre media appearance where he lamented the cost of owning the team. Moose takes particular aim at the Yankees' passive approach to the bullpen, highlighting their failure to land elite closer Edwin Diaz, who instead signed a record-setting $69 million deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Moose argues that the Dodgers have officially replaced the Yankees as the "Evil Empire," operating with a "slice your head off" mentality while the Yankees settle for regular-season stability and "hope for the best" in October. From slamming the team's failed player development (citing names like Volpe, Greg Bird, and Andujar) to mocking Hal’s complaints about paying the City of New York every February, Moose demands to know: "How much does it really bother the Yankees that they haven't won since 2009?"

Cashman's Calculated Risk: Don't Drown While Waiting for Cole and Rodón! | BT

BT unleashes a fiery critique of the Yankees' slow-moving offseason, warning that the assumed return of Cody Bellinger is a false assumption and a major threat to the team's success. With a long list of young, unproven position players like Jazz Chisholm, Ben Rice, and a potential "strikeout machine" in Ryan McMahon, Tierney argues the lineup is riddled with holes. The more pressing concern, according to BT, is a disaster start: with Cole, Rodón, and Schmidt all recovering, the rotation is dangerously thin. Tierney urges the Yankees to forget big-bat spending and execute a "radical reset" by loading up on pitching depth (like signing Michael King or trading for Peralta) to ensure they don't "drown in April or May" against a rapidly improving, aggressive AL East (Jays, O's, Red Sox). The ultimate message: the path to winning is no longer through hitting, but through a surplus of elite arms.

Wilks OUT! Jets' Defense Gets a Much-Needed TKO! | BT

BT reacts to the news that the Jets have fired defensive coordinator Steve Wilks following a string of "embarrassingly inept" performances, including a 48-20 blowout loss to the Jaguars where the defense looked like they "didn't even want to tackle." While not celebrating the firing, BT calls it the "right move" and criticizes Head Coach Aaron Glenn for his "awful" personnel decisions, specifically highlighting the hiring of Wilks and the catastrophic Justin Fields QB trade—both significant "Xs" on Glenn's resume. Tierney also offers a small dose of optimism, analyzing three distinct, radically different quarterback paths for the Jets next year, and offers some hope that undrafted rookie Brady Cook has shown enough moxie for the team to consider developing him.

Sal talks about playing a motivational clip for his late father, while BT recounts the life-changing moment his dad showed him support after his first firing. They discuss their turbulent start, specifically the unplanned Carl Banks firestorm, and assert that they have "no regrets" because they "gave everything they had" to the show, proud it was not a "failed experiment." With grateful thanks to the listeners and the station for the opportunity to have a proper farewell, the "Dynamic Duo" promises their partnership is far from over, signing off with a heartfelt affirmation of their bond.

The Final Show: Skubal, Cohen, and the Fan's Fury! |BT & Sal

On their final show, BT & Sal dive into the hot rumor surrounding the Mets and Tigers ace Tarik Skubal, who is available with only one year of control left. Sal argues the Mets and Yankees must knock down the door for Skubal, but BT fires back, arguing the Mets should absolutely NOT include top pitching prospect Nolan McClain—calling a potential trade "idiotic" given Skubal's short-term control and impending $400M contract. They debate the Tigers' leverage and the risks of waiting to sign Skubal in free agency versus trading top farm pieces now. The hosts also discuss whether Mets owner Steve Cohen will react to the current "state of desperation" among the fanbase and overrule David Stearns' measured plan. The show wraps up with emotional fan calls and appreciation for the "juice" the New York Knicks brought to their time slot.

The Alonso Aftermath: Cohen and Stearns' Credibility on Thin Ice! | BT & Sal

BT and Sal discuss the volatile fallout of the Mets letting both Pete Alonso and Edwin Diaz walk, labeling it a "wreckage." Sal wants David Stearns to explain publicly why the Mets, with all their resources, wouldn't meet Alonso's market price, especially after a great offensive year. Tierney argues that keeping players who delivered "subpar results" makes no sense, stating that fans must choose between loving the players or demanding a winner. The conversation pivots to skepticism, addressing the caller theory that Steve Cohen's focus is now purely on the casino deal at Metropolitan Park. They also debate the future of the Mets' offense: is trading for Kyle Tucker the necessary "sexy, splashy move," or will Stearns prioritize young talent and make the team less competitive in the short term? Tierney is insistent that letting Alonso go only makes Stearns' job of building a playoff contender "more difficult."

Pete's Gone! Stearns Becomes NYC's New #1 Sports Villain! | BT & Sal

BT & Sal react instantly to the explosive news that Pete Alonso is officially gone, signing a five-year, $155 million deal with the Orioles. Sal defends the move, arguing that the Mets needed a "wrecking ball" to change a core that "wasn't working," even though he acknowledges the raw emotional pain for Mets fans who loved the "Polar Bear." Tierney pushes back, declaring David Stearns the most hated man in New York sports right now, demanding he "start cooking fast" to replace the massive power loss. They discuss the potential pivot, noting the money saved from Nimmo, Diaz, and Alonso could target players like Cody Bellinger or Kyle Tucker, but warn that Stearns has zero latitude left and must deliver major moves to avoid becoming a failure. The hosts agree that the team needs at least two big bats and two significant pitchers to prevent the 2026 roster from looking "disgracefully bad."

Five Years, $155M: Mets Draw Line in the Sand, Alonso Jumps Ship! | BT & Sal

BT and Sal react to the seismic breaking news that Pete Alonso has officially left the New York Mets, signing a five-year, $155 million contract with the Baltimore Orioles. Hof's fiery reaction sums up the fan base's outrage, calling the decision by President of Baseball Operations David Stearns "inexcusable." The hosts debate whether this move is a necessary "ripping of the band-aid" for a flawed team or a colossal mistake, especially after the recent departure of Edwin Diaz and the trade of Brandon Nimmo. Tierney points to Stearns's focus on defense and high-OBP players like Marcus Semien as the new direction, arguing the Mets can be a better team even with fewer home runs. The key question now becomes: Did Alonso's anger over his treatment by the organization lead him to leave without giving the Mets a final chance to match the offer?

Is Cashman Asleep? The Yankees' Offseason Is a Snoozefest! | BT & Sal

BT & Sal blast the Yankees for their glacial pace this offseason, with Tierney describing the Yankees Hot Stove show as a cure for insomnia. The hosts mock GM Brian Cashman's vague Winter Meetings update that deals have been "tough so far," contrasting his comments about the "aggressive" Dodgers to the Yankees' own timid approach. The discussion quickly turns to the Yankees' glaring roster needs: a leadoff hitter and a reliable right-handed thumper to balance the lineup. They zero in on the problematic infield, with Sal calling for changes at two spots due to the mess of Volpe, Chisholm, and McMahon. Tierney floats the idea of trading Jazz Chisholm for Bo Bichette to upgrade the offense, while Sal flatly rejects the possibility of pursuing Pete Alonso, declaring, "He's just not my kind of ballplayer." The segment concludes with a spirited debate on the entitled nature of former Yankee Edwin Diaz being "upset" with the team for not consulting him before signing Devin Williams.
