Special Preview - Straight Fire with Jason McIntyre - Is LaMelo Ball the next Magic Johnson? + TV and podcast host Charissa Thompson - a podcast by Fox Sports Radio

On today's episode, Jason kicks things with a deep dive into the early returns on Charlotte Hornets rookie phenom LaMelo Ball. Two weeks ago when we had NBA legend Muggsy Bogues on the show he compared Ball to Jason Kidd and Penny Hardaway; Now, there's folks in the basketball world comparing him to Magic Johnson. Either way, the Hornets point guard appears destined for superstardom as he's already turned Charlotte into must-see TV. Don't be surprised to see him take the League by storm next year the same way guys like Luka Doncic and Zion Williamson have in recent memory. Later, FOX Sports TV personality and co-host of the 'Calm Down with Erin&Charissa' podcast Charissa Thompson swings by to discuss why she feels like she hit the lottery when she first got hired at ESPN, the trials and tribulations of working on live television, how she was able to shatter the glass ceiling and become one of the prominent female personalities in sports television, why she's disappointed in the Russell Wilson melodrama surrounding her hometown Seattle Seahawks, why she's optimistic that the rest of the Seahawks players will welcome Wilson back into the fold even after he criticized the offensive line in public, how difficult it is to give her honest opinions about athletes who she happens to be friendly with off the air, why she believes it's going to be difficult for the Dallas Cowboys to justify not paying Dak Prescott market value, how her new podcast with Erin Andrews came about, and much more!
