The Gang's All Here | The Steam Room Episode 12

This very special episode of The Steam Room brings EJ, Chuck, Kenny and Shaq back together for the first time since the NBA hiatus began. The crew catches up on Charles' COVID-19 scare, Shaq's confusing appearance in Tiger King, the fate of the 2019-2020 NBA season and more... and don't worry, the laughs are just as loud from home as they are in Studio J! Inside the NBA Executive Producer Tim Kiely joins to take Chuck's temperature on Tom Brady moving on to Tampa Bay and Cam Newton's future. Ernie sends love to all of the medial professionals out there on the front lines. Oh, and did we hear Chuck say he's considering joining social media?!

Last year I was in the hospital for 63 days . I was admitted April 6 2019. I beat so many odds to have survived and Inside the NBA and the playoffs helped get me through my darkest of days.

I love chucks admiration for emergency services like firefighters, teachers, police, nurses etc. i know everyone loves them but he makes the point so frequently to put them on a pedestal.

[@cwelsh9149]

How about all the grocery store workers going in and risking their lives every day

[@waitwhat2035]

CWelsh this by no means is to down play the importance of essential workers in america. But to say they risk their lives everyday is quite an over reach. Only since this pandemic has this been the case, emergency services have actually risked their lives everyday for ever, since the beginning of its existence. So theres that.

[@cwelsh9149]

Yes, right now they are risking their lives everyday they go to work. The health care workers are more equipped and have more safety measures than the retail workers. Cmon man dont be an ediot, lol

Chuck is 100% correct about this being dangerous for people with "bad habits." Drinking, smoking, eating too much, sleeping all day, etc. There's lots of depression and suicide spikes going on.
