Merry Kirkmas! Pablo Torre is here for a victory lap about his reporting on Steve Ballmer and his LA Clippers, who have just received the harshest penalty in NBA history. We also discuss private equity’s devouring of sports, then take a look at the massive WNBA culture war about trans women in sports, a story featuring the Gülanist Enes Kantor Freedom, Royce White, Sophie Cunningham, and zero trans people.

I love when my worlds collide

Ballpark

First as long as no one types faster than me. Shit typing this is probably screwing me.

BloopBloop

I always knew I'd be number two one day!!!

ploob

Permanent fourth mic!

ploob

IMGAY!

Elo

Thank you Pablo. May the clippers suffer yet another century of humiliation for their crimes

Mikey Cera

I hope everyone got what they wanted this kirkmas!

George Mitri

Steve Ballmer sets Microsoft on a glide slope down to such an extent that Satya Nadella takes over, and now he fucks the Clippers. Heck of a job.

Ian McGlory

Developers, Developers, Developers

Travis

Felix begins speaking at 10 minutes and 43 seconds

Zachary J Rodell

Rude. You guys just say your audience hates sports and the next ep is a sport ep.

SocialistSappho

“DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS DEVELOPERS” - Steve Ballsack

Jake Larsen

I wonder what Pablo finna do after this 😂 Prolly fuck some bad hoes. Maybe do a money spread. Ooh he so tuff bruh. He really run this shit. Pablo so tuff 😭😭 Just throwing his money around cuz who cares he’s got so much. Man I wish I could know him he’s so tuff 😭😭😭

John Lima

Cool seeing felix on the dodo

A Kayyy

Sir, a second podcast has hit Kirkmas

Jack Rockwood

Wish granted from a prior comment of mine thanks chapo

Ash Adkins

they're testing the loyalty of the sports haters

pq

Pulitzer Pablo back in the trap

nick schultz

well, he's still dead, so...

Robimbo Robamacop

Wait till the Judge brothers and all their shaven crew roll up on Pablo in that ancient but fully sexual Honda

Mikey

Pablo Torre. Has he done more to overthrow the billionaire class than the DSA? Much to consider

Declan Kennedy

RIP Charlie you would have loved seeing Hasan's hog on a gigantic screen in a room full of cattle, we do and will continue to carry the flame

Meowzedong

Team won yesterday and now Pablo on the pod my trough is soooo full.

nick schultz

I'm 34 minutes in and must have missed it. Does he speak again?

N0tagayman

Pablo is kind of a 🚬, but I like his episodes regardless and, additionally, I am NOT gay.

That Guy

All my baseball podcasts want Pablo to get some Dodger documents, mostly so he can go back-to-back against LA. That would hit like a Vlade Divac halftime Newport

Keely Hughes

It’s impossible to tell a “ genius” (put aside money≠Genius), that they are doing something dumb…

Horseloverfat

Amazing that any time Enes Kanter has his “I’m protecting women” schtick criticized by a female athlete, he threatens to dominate them

Carter Kriss

we need more Pablo on!! he's excellent

Stinkydumpster

Here’s to the end of professional sports, and more interesting episodes in the future.

Agent Grange

In Chapo City, even a podcast street rat can become a Pulitzer Prize dog.

Michael S. Judge

It would be a concession in itself, but I would LOVE to watch Paige Bueckers fry every NBA player between, say, 5'10" and 6'2". Take a team with a 6-foot point guard and swap for Caitlin Clark, and if the team is ANY good, she'll have that offense looking like PHX Steve Nash

Michael S. Judge

I can't remember who this was, but someone who knows the game – maybe John Hollinger or Nate Duncan – referred to Royce White as "arguably the worst 1st-round pick in the history of basketball"

Philip Malcolm

Will gets to ride up front today cos he's such a good guy at sports

Khaqan Ahmad

Was hoping for a Kath episode today

Dick Must Bust

Great ep, would have been nice if Felix let someone else talk

J K

Kawhi got a no-show, no-work job that would make Christopher Moltisanti cry Versace tears

Hot Rod

All this Ballmer stuff is huge and I wonder if it’ll lead to a sale and/or relocation. I can’t help but wonder about the coincidence that Kushner is part of the takeover of the Lakers for $12B. You just know some inside info and lawfare is also behind the DOJ investigation into Ballmer.

Hot Rod

Not saying Ballmer is innocent, just that all this is damaging and, coincidentally, a Trump family member is right there ready to potentially profit from all this.

Will Scerbo

Can't wait to hear the follow up episode after Pablo exposes the Los Angeles Dollars "baseball team"

Instantdumbass

Daktronics is the worst in the sign industry.

LiamTot

Felix playing flappy bird for an hour and a half for the sports episode

Adam Foster

as someone who follows association football the idea pf private equity buying up teams is practically old hat at this point, the premier league even has two teams owned by monarchs

Christian Johnson

I would like Pablo Torre to comment on what he needs to do this season to get his club Mallorca back to La Liga after last season's relegation to La Segunda

Satcomdaemon

sounds like a bad edit at 11:38

Skitzaf Raynik

If I wanted to get into sports where should I start?

seasound

felix jump scare at 55:08

SweetGeorge

As a longtime Clips fan, big fan of Pablo and devoted chapo listener I am simply in hell

Peanut Horse

Pablo had other sports media personalities saying he was milking the story just for the NBA to put belt to ass to clippers once again and then reference Pablo’s reporting in the first sentence of their investigation on this shit LMAO

Joe

Aspiration Dome is what I’m getting from J-Lo one day

Keith

Save yourself a ton of money and effort and just go watch a high school basketball game.

ST Promotion

Actually he sounds like Mark Normand and Joe List

JP

Mr Ballmer sir, a second Pablo has hit the Torres.

etienne

great, more idiotic salary cap bullshit just as the MLB is going into lockout to ram down a salary cap

Paul Rotchford

Surfing industry is one of the sports that should be profitable but, is not.

CS

We love our Pablo, don’t we folks 🤗

Scam Rodgers

Wasn't surprised lebron was in the polymarket ad but seeing derek jeter was a surprise tho

swervegriffin

Did Felix just join the episode an hour in

Reece Coren

feels like sports and honestly just the nfl nba and college football are the last things propping this country up

Reece Coren

Am I the only listener who needed an explanation on Guëllenism but not Royce White and Enes Kanter😭🫣

Joe

This must be what kanye meant when he said life of pablo

Jackson

You could do an entire episode just on Kanter so I think they were trying to avoid getting sucked in

nick

I just know it kills Will to hear our beloved Suzyn Waldman do the ad read for the Yankees Bet360 money line during the radio broadcast. It’s inescapable.

Reece Coren

No I just meant how they’ve been talking about Guëllen for a decade and I still don’t understand what his ideology is

Reece Coren

Phenomenal discussion. Pablo is the best

bob dylan

Did they solve the vulture problem?

Cam Koenig

I love the Pablo×Chapo crossovers so much

Michael Rosen

Since this is mostly non-combat sports, he barely talks

JD Peery

Can’t play Kanter

ZeeBee

I rewound it the times thinking I accidentally skipped forward. Who was Ballmer grabbing court side?

Jack Kanzler

Excuse me Mr. Chapo, Newcastle United is not a D tier English Football club!

I.P. Freely

Exactly Ballmer paid Kawhi $18 million. Shit pales in comparison to the corruption Trump and his clan are up to

I.P. Freely

Pablo protecting the salary cap but leftistly

blazed uncle

Pablo Torre found out about Gülen

Brian Hurley

I MISS MATT. don’t care if he come back just wanted to say it ! !

Tigger

I don't usually browse the comments, but came here for this question. I tried a different app just to make sure it wasn't some kind of corrupted feed. Searched and all I found was a viral clip of him excitedly grabbing the knees of the two guys on the bench next to him while celebrating. To skip straight to Epstein talk from whatever got cut off seems...weird?

etienne

I don't think he really did, investigating a fraud against a law that *exists* is valuable but still, cap bad : )

etienne

the idea was kind of danced around in the episode but the salary cap is a measure by and for owners to keep more profit in their pocket so yeah of course if a lone owner does salary cap evasion then yeah it's understandable that the other owners and the league that works for them throws the book at them. like duuhh

etienne

my experience with the Trans in Sports Issue is in extremely grassroots bicycle and skateboard envents when someone who's kinda genderfucky enters the "not guys" category and takes the win against like 4 girls and you're like idk this seems a bit off but whatever. On the other hand I've seen events where like a teenage girl easily destroys a roster of adult dudes. It seems way more insane to make a huge deal out of it while alligned with christian right fundies than it is to participate in sports while being Enby

Tucker Millett

I love Pablo on Chapo it's my favorite cross over ep

Laurel

DEVELOPERS! 👏👏👏

polarkeef

This is a new strategy in fraud. Have the face of the company be a "goofy, kinda dumb, oh shucks type asshole asshole" Then , hopefully for them, people just think the people are didn't know understand it was a scam

Doug Cartel

You failed to mention that his iconic move of grabbing both of a man's inner thighs was his finishing move A couple of important arteries there

Degrassi Knoll

The scroll at the bottom of CNN had the odds for the winner of the show Big Brother....It's jarring having grown up right after Pete Rose retired and would never see yhe Hall of Fame for sports betting

Jessica

trans women dont even have an advantage in sports over cis women!!

Jessica

did you listen. to the whole episode

Ross Moore

God i love it when the one guy throws the sportsball at the other guy and that guy hits the sportsball. Sports ball is the best

Rob

Im the one Clippers fan probably subscribed to this podcast. For the longest time I was in Pablo’s mentions calling this a nothing burger. I will now eat my Chris Paul jersey live on his show whenever he wants.

Rob

Also W for the lolwtferic art

Ballpark

You must not watch much nude wrestling fetish videos

Boochie Seriouss

Can't hear the name Steve Ballmer without thinking of it in the AVGN B-17 Bomber voice

rfomahony

I get this is like a 10+ year-old inside joke, but y'all don't know what you're talking about with Gülen and Erdoğan. Zero evidence connecting Gülenists to the 2016 coup attempt. Gülenists are not "pro-GCC;" GCC considers the Gülen movement a terrorist organization. You boys are way out over your skis on this one.
