The Schrager Hour

Peter discusses the emotional and almost religious experience of being in Madison Square Garden for Game 4, as well as the empty feeling of longing and wanting more of the rush after a fan base wins a long awaited championship. Brian Windhorst joins and helps Peter go through the emotions of the entire experience, as well as shed light on the construction of the New York Knicks' roster. "Windy", then, discusses the public image of Victor Wembanyama--a curious combination of coming up short on the court, and being a unique figure off of it. Max Siegelman, the founder of the stylish NYC brand "Siegelman Stable", then joins Peter to tell his brand's story and Jalen Brunson's connection to his gear. We learn that Jalen Brunson's mother was the face of an original Siegelman Stable launch and Jalen's been a loyal supporter for years. This episode is a celebration and appreciation for a city, a team, and a reminder why we love sports. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
