| 6/16/25 | Episode 232: The Desmond Bane Trade (or: do the Pistons need to make a move themselves?) & Jalen Duren Season Review | This episode opines on the Desmond Bane trade to Orlando, how the Magic's current position compares to that of the Pistons, and whether or not the Pistons need to make moves of their own to keep up in the East, then reviews Jalen Duren's 2024-2025 season. | 52m 55s | ||||||
| 6/10/25 | Episode 231: A Random Mix of Topics | This episode visits a variety of Pistons and NBA-related topics that the host himself, posting this episode four days after recording it, cannot remember in their totality. Recorded on Friday, June 6. | 48m 11s | ||||||
| 5/30/25 | Episode 230: Trade Chatter | This episode addresses some common suggested trade targets for the Pistons, and sadly concludes that none of them are viable. Recorded on 5/24.

| 3/3/25 | Episode 226: Analyzing the Ceiling | This episode focuses chiefly upon the relative importance of each member of the young core -- Cade, Ivey, Ausar, Duren, and Stewart (oops, forgot about Holland!) -- to the team's present and future. | 1h 10m 23s | ||||||
| 2/21/25 | Episode 225: Taking Stock (a somewhat concise review of the last two months) | This episode attempts to make up for lost time by discussing the events of the past two months. | 48m 17s | ||||||
| 2/7/25 | Episode 224: Trade Deadline Recap (with Zariq of Bullyball) | This episode, with guest Zariq of Bullyball.net, goes very in-depth on the trade deadline -- both for the Pistons and the NBA at large. (Apologies for the low volume!) | 1h 33m 11s | ||||||
