️ The Baller Lifestyle Podcast – Episode 597

Title: The Reaper Works Overtime
Hosts: Brian Beckner & Ed Daly

Episode Summary

Brian and Ed are back to honor the fallen, roast the living, and laugh at the absurd. In this week’s episode, the guys salute friends of the show, mourn a few legends (and some not-so-legends), and wade through everything from celebrity deaths to pervy psychics to Dodgers delusion. Plus: Jay Fizzle’s baby army, Charlie Sheen’s “good company,” and a UK porn crisis.

It’s the irreverent blend of dark humor, pop culture, and sports cynicism that keeps The Baller Lifestyle the most honest show in podcasting.
