About RealGM Radio
RealGM Radio is one feed that holds several NBA shows, so it makes most sense taken one show at a time. Double Dribble belongs to Jared Dubin and Moe Dakil. Dubin writes the newsletter Last Night in Basketball, and Dakil promotes it hard, describing his partner as the one who catches what viewers missed in games. Dakil introduces himself as a former video coordinator with the Clippers and a contributor on NBA TV. Their award talk is specific. In one Rookie of the Year exchange, the pair agree that the better rookie season and the better career may belong to two different players, and they credit one candidate with one of the great shooting seasons in the history of the league. The humor is loose. Dakil runs a mock roll call of everything the league survived this season, from months of tanking discourse to a broken-up gambling ring and arrests, and he asks for five million reviews, all of them nice. At least once the talk drifts into college football before one of them admits they have veered off course. Good Take pairs Wes Goldberg with Mike Shearer, the author of Basketball Poetry. Its titles are verdicts: 'Magic Need to Blow it Up', 'Bucks Already Botched the Giannis Trade'. One Good Take intro starts with the previous night's games, Cavs vs. Hawks first, and promises takes on when a team should trade a star player. Goldberg's own episodes rely on guests. He drafts the playoffs' most interesting players with Es Baraheni of the Athletic NBA Daily show, then turns to two-time NBA champion Cedric Maxwell for help with his MVP and other award picks. Keith Parish appears on an episode titled 'Making Bold 2026 NBA Predictions'. Together, the titles follow the league calendar: All-NBA, defensive and rookie teams, play-in previews, playoff X factors, and debates over the easiest path through the playoffs. Where to start depends on what a listener wants. For ballots and play-in groundwork, try 'All-NBA, Defensive, Rookie teams and Play-in games Preview', the Double Dribble episode that, by Goldberg's account, covered their award teams and the play-in games. Go to Good Take for sharper opinions and to Goldberg's episodes for outside voices. The appeal of the bundle is range: a newsletter writer's attention to detail, a two-time champion's view and a blunt call on the Magic all come through one subscription.
Made for: Suits a listener who follows the NBA closely through awards season and the playoffs and likes hearing the same stretch of games argued from several chairs: a detail-minded pair, a duo trading takes and invited guests.
What sets it apart: The feed bundles distinct NBA shows, Double Dribble, Good Take and Wes Goldberg's guest episodes, so one subscription carries detailed award ballots, blunt team verdicts and outside voices such as a two-time NBA champion.
