About Drive and Dish NBA Podcast
Welcome to the Drive & Dish NBA Podcast, hosted by Kevin Rafuse (@rafusetolose) & Justin Cousart (@JustinContheAir). We started back in 2014 as a way to discuss our favorite league like we would whenever we hung out outside of work. Two cities, and a couple of radio jobs later, here we are. We strive to give you the best in everything NBA both on and off the court on a weekly basis and keep it light and fun, the way basketball is supposed to be. Honestly, which league is more fun than the NBA right now? Our goal is to make you feel like you’re sitting on the couch, at the barbershop, or at a barstool with us. We cover the league year-round from opening night in October, all the way through the NBA Finals in June. If that’s not enough, we keep going in the summer for the NBA draft, NBA summer league & free agency. Segments include Who’s Ballin, Who’s Fallin, our NBA version of the stock market where we tell you what’s trending up, and what’s trending down each week. We’ve also got Hot Takes from Reddit, where we bring you the spiciest and most comical takes from NBA Reddit each week. You also will hear the best in NBA guests throughout the season and all summer long. Like we said earlier though, the show is all about fun, because if you’re not having fun, why do something right

Inside a recent episode

Season 14: Throw the Ball Up
Published 24 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] I think you've started to see what the identity is going to be in late games, too. And it's going to go through Maxie and Jalen Brown. And that's what I think it needs to like. Those are the guys the offense needs to be running through late minutes. Get Embiid in his spots. I think he's done a good job. And I think specifically against Cleveland is one of the better late games he's played in quite a bit. That was good to see. More importantly, too, with Embiid, though, and this is going to be the key, like he looks like he's a bit more defensively energized than he was last year. The defense is the key. […]
