The ironic resurgence of Harambe is due for a comeback

I think we actually are getting close to having it [Harambe] be funny again. The resurgence. Because it was very funny for that summer. Then it was like very lame. But now enough time has passed where if you just drop a Harambe, it's like, oh, that's actually kind of funny. The ironic resurgence of Harambe is due.

The Harambe meme has indeed persisted in an ironic capacity within the PMT universe and internet culture at large.

RIP Harambe

RIP Harambe

Our sweet prince. From the moment a 17-year-old gorilla was shot at the Cincinnati Zoo on May 28, 2016, Harambe became the unofficial mascot of Pardon My Take. The boys rode the Harambe wave with tie-dye t-shirts, conspiracy theories, existential debates about life in Cincinnati, and the eternal question: could a gorilla play fullback?

Without Harambe getting shot, Pardon My Take might not exist

Without that fucking gorilla getting shot, I don't know if I'd be sitting next to you right now, Big Cat. One of the seminal moments of Pardon My Take — getting sued by ESPN, Adam Morrison's bunker, and then the summer of Harambe.

The Lakers will win their series against the Suns

The Lakers are up 2-1. They're going to win this series. The Suns, I feel bad for them. I don't know how the Lakers don't come out of the West.

The Suns came back to win the series 4-2, eventually reaching the NBA Finals while the Lakers were eliminated.

Jimmy Butler is not a top 15 player in the NBA

I've long said that Jimmy Butler is not a top 15 player in the NBA. He doesn't look at all like he did last year. I don't know what the difference is.

While subjective, Butler's inclusion in All-NBA teams and playoff runs (Finals 2023) makes this a highly debated and likely 'incorrect' take in the eyes of most analysts.

The Vikings officially have a Kyler Murray problem

I think we can officially say they have a Kyler Murray problem. Justin Jefferson has reached his point where he's like, 'What the fuck is going on?' So that would be my point. Maybe there's a Kyler Murray issue.

Whether Minnesota had a significant Kyler Murray problem is an evaluative football judgment rather than a definitively resolvable fact.

The Vikings should trade for Kirk Cousins

What if I told you the Vikings could trade for a quarterback that has 18 touchdown passes and a rushing touchdown? Would that be something you think you'd be interested in if you were a Minnesota Viking fan? Kirk Cousins.

Whether Kirk Cousins was traded to Minnesota during the 2026 season is not established by the transcript or reliably known here.

Jalen Warren is a top-five running back

Jalen Warren is the top five running back this year. And it's like watching him play, that changes what I think about the Steelers.

Top-five running back status is ultimately a subjective ranking that cannot be definitively resolved.
