Disney is a massive global corporation with a market cap in the hundreds of billions, whereas Barstool was valued in the tens of millions at this time.

I think they definitely picked the wrong people to fuck with on this one. Like we got nothing to lose.

The podcast went on to become the most successful sports podcast in the world despite the legal pressure.

ESPN should be thanking us for elevating the brands of 'Pardon the Interruption' and 'First Take'

I would say that they should be on their hands and knees thanking us that we're doing more to elevate the Pardon the Interruption and First Take brand, because now they're affiliated with our brand.

ESPN's shows were massive established brands, while PMT was a weeks-old podcast; the exposure definitely flowed the other way.

I want to have them file lawsuits at me nonstop because the more they file, the stronger I get... the more lawsuits we have filed against us, the better we get.

The C&D story became a major media moment that helped cement PMT's early dominance in the podcast charts.

Malik Nabers is a true No. 1 receiver

Malik Nabers is a bonafide, bonafide number one in the league, I think. I think Malik Nabers is a true number one.

Receiver ranking is inherently evaluative and cannot be definitively resolved.

The Giants are a fun, good team

Even when they're good, they're not fun. This is a fun team. The Giants are fun. Good. Yeah. And I do think that they are a good team.

This is an evaluative opinion rather than a definitively verifiable claim.

The Falcons can win the NFC South

Why can't they win the NFC South? Especially what we saw from the Panthers today.

The NFC South winner will determine whether this prediction comes true.
