    I feel like if the CF bros are more secure in their manhood than the terrified coaches then that explains a lot about the drop in team culture this year lol. Incredible get this, really cool. I do watch a lot of Jackson on LockedOnRockets but this is next level in terms of podcast guest going in to the playoffs. It should be a race to get Cregg on next (pass on Ryan probably unless you're gonna get some other OTT journeyman type to balance it)

    Hope Ben doesn’t interrupt her too much.

    We could make it a drinking game.

    I have an immense level of respect for Clutch. If credibility were rocks then he'd be Mt. Everest to me.

    But teaming up with Vanessa Richardson, the team's puff piece producer, could be a slippery slope. I will reserve judgment of course, because I can't even conceive of Clutch being co-opted the way Pancakes McClain became a spigot for Texans propaganda. I trust he'll always remember that his people are on his board and not in their boardroom.

    I love Vanessa even more seeing her in this YouTube live show.

    She is a Rocket Legend.

    I hope she retires a Rocket.

    I was so excited to see her I couldn’t focus. Partly like being star-struck, partly like viewing the visage of an angel, my vision of her blurred over, apparently.

    Did she have that affect on anyone else?

    Great job @The Cat and Dave. Thanks. She really seemed to enjoy it, and on her birthday

    and she said Senhub, lolz!

    This was great!

    First, Vanessa, if by some insane chance ever reads this … you are beautiful, smart and a great representative for women working in the sports field! Which is not an easy place to be sometimes.

    Enjoyed hearing about both the day of the KD trade news and a little “close to the team” feel good vibes :)

    Lots of good discussion here - thanks for doing it!

    Happy belated birthday to Vanessa!
