5-27-26 - Avs swept out of the playoffs by VGK/Hard to explain the loss/Most devastating playoff exit?

6-30-26 - More Nuggets rumblings/Percentage chance Jokic will stay/World Cup PKs: Yay or Nay?

0:00 - Word on the street is, the Nuggets declined Jalen Pickett's team option for the '26/'27 season. That's a shame. He always showed flashes of brilliance but could never find a consistent role on the team. So what's next for the team? 14:31 - Yesterday on Kreckman and Lindahl, The Radio Machine Mark Springer said he thinks there's a 75% chance Jokic stays a Nugget. That's CRAZY. That's WAY too high! Does anyone actually think Jokic would leave? 32:54 - Both of yesterday's World Cup games came down to Penalty Kicks. The Athletic wrote a piece about PKs and if we could maybe find a better way to end games. Are PKs the best way to decide things? And a bunch of angry soccer purists flooded the replies with some harsh words about Americans. Listen up you freaks. Say what you will about soccer/football. But keep your paws off America, baby.

6-29-26 - Nuggets trade rumors/Avs nix Nichushkin, bring back Burns/Nugs fans won't survive the offseason

0:00 - Bill Simmons said there's some "smoke" around the Nuggets right now. Some of it is legit, and some of it isn't. He thinks there could be a mutually beneficial trade between the Nuggets and Celtics. It might be all conjecture and heresay, but Simmons also has his finger on the pulse of the Celtics.  15:38 - The Avs traded Nichushkin, probably a salary dump, then immediately re-signed Brent Burns and Brett Kulak. Brett sees a parallel between how the Avs and (our coworkers) the LA Rams do business. 33:58 - All weekend long, there were Nuggets rumors swirling. Brett was trying to enjoy a few days in San Diego, and his phone kept lighting up with Nuggets rumblings. Jokic hasn't signed his extension yet, and some NBA insiders claim he's using it to force the hand of ownership/the front office. Build me a winner or I'm out.  Bottom line is, Nuggets fans won't survive this offseason. All this he said/she said bullcrap is gonna drive us crazy.

6-26-26 - Berto & Coach kick off the Scramble/Top 100 Players in the NFL/Val Nichushkin traded to Columbus

0:00 - We're getting weird with it today, y'all! We're bringing back the Altitude Summer Scramble, but we're DOING IT LIVE. For the Appetizer Hour, let's pair Berto & Coach Sanford together and see what the heck happens. 14:39 - CBS Sports published a list of the Top 100 Players in the NFL. How many Broncos made the cut?  33:28 - Yesterday, the Avalanche traded Val Nichushkin to the Columbus Blue Jackets (not the Predators?) for 3 future draft picks. Will we miss Val? His on-ice production was elite, but his off ice issues often struck at the worst possible time.

6-25-26 - Nugs use both 2nd round picks/Avs trade Jack Drury to Nashville/WR, TE, RB group rankings

0:00 - The Nuggets had two 2nd round picks yesterday and they used them both! How do we feel about them actually selecting players instead of packaging those picks for draft day dealing? 15:37 - Chris MacFarland only has one number in his phone, and it's Joe Sakic's. Yesterday, the Avs sent Jack Drury to the Predators. Do we like the haul they got in return? Will we miss Drury? 33:21 - ESPN ranked the WR, TE, and RB groups of all 32 NFL teams. Where to the Broncos stack up?

6-24-26 - Nuggets draft...no one/Nuggets big picture needs, Sorsby slippery slope/Stomp Clap music

0:00 - Yesterday, with the 26th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, the Nuggets selected...no one. They traded their selection to the San Antonio Spurs for No. 35 and two future second round picks. What's the plan here? This has to mean another big move is coming, right? 15:49 - Big picture, what do the Nuggets need? Have we diagnosed the main issue with last season's first round exit? After that, the NFL has cancelled the Supplemental Draft. Now Brendan Sorsby can't play college football this year, and can't be drafted into the NFL til 2027. He also can't sign as a free agent until he's gone through a full draft cycle. Get ready to learn CFL, buddy. The NFL is really trying to make an example of him, and it sets a dangerous precedent. 36:43 - I bumped back with "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, and it sent us down a rabbit hole about Stomp & Clap music and NPR Tiny Desk concerts. Welcome to summer radio, people.
