Back at it, like chiropractic. I want to first acknowledge that it has been 3 years to the date since we published our first episode of Isolated Thoughts and it's been a hell of a journey and one I'm grateful to have been able to do with everyone from day 1's to one-off listeners. This week we talk NBA playoffs as we end the first round and head into the semi-finals. Reflect on how SREMMLIFE4 may have better been left in the drafts, that white boy from Louisville that can't jump has a new EP out, and Spotify has a new hip-hop podcast series. Beau is afraid, very afraid, also briefly try to figure out why you would bring a dog into an early screening of Evil Dead Rises. And for our food for thought I refer to a simple yet powerful piece of literature. 0:00- 0:41 Intro set up 0:42-0:13:17 Intro and NBA & WNBA talk 0:13:18-0:13:28 Phone call mess up 0:13:29-0:26:16 Music Talk 0:26:17-0:55:11 What the prophet watching 0:55:12-1:02:37 Food for thought/outro 1:02:38- Curiosity/ Aaron Hall Music from this episode: Aaron Hall-Curiosity Ft.

However, the NBA takes being made as of late surrounding the MVP award, Nikola Jokic, Ja Morant, and a few others have gotten a bit out of hand.
