Welcome back to another episode of Decoding 40! The podcast is now picking up streams in the city of Brotherly Love aka Philadelphia which can only mean that the 215 needed some cheering up after their beloved Phillies lost to the Astros for this year’s World Series. No worries! Keep your heads up in Illadelphia!

This week’s Check-In starts with Alaric celebrating his daughter's birthday and finding himself in back-to-back Chucky Cheese Zone parties over the weekend. Luckily, it was one of the cleaner “Kid Casinos”. Leon travels with his wife to Denver to celebrate their 16th wedding anniversary. It was a much-needed trip that helped recharge his batteries. Vin celebrates his 49th birthday with the boys of Decoding40 at Stolen Jackets and sees Harry Styles has taken residence at their favorite watering hole. He survived the night but paid for it the next morning.

Next, we discuss the Kyrie Irving controversy and whether or not he deserves the backlash that he’s receiving from the NBA and his corporate partners. Is there any way to question Jewish history without being antisemitic?

You’ll hear this and so much more on this episode of Decoding 40.
