BASKETBALL PARTY TWENTY THREE!
BASKETBALL PARTY episode TWENTY THREE wraps up its first season as the premier NBA podcast featuring two adult women talking to one another. We discuss the stages of grief following the Cavs loss in Game 6 of Finals, what the proper response is when dealing with a loss, Steph Curry’s mouth guard, LeBron’s physical specimen, KFC concept stores and just what will happen in the future because we are twin Kreskins. We’ll be back for a special draft/trade deadline episode later this summer! Erin M. Routson is an art director & freelance writer living in Los Angeles, CA. She will be spending the offseason trying to lay off the intense emotions about basketball. Follow her running commentary on Twitter @dietcokeforever. Kim Huston is a copywriter based in Louisville, KY. Her offseason plans include freelance unpaid concepting for a new KFC at that intersection in Louisville.  You can attempt to follow her on Twitter @kimpossiblydire.

BASKETBALL PARTY TWENTY TWO!
BASKETBALL PARTY episode TWENTY TWO maintains its position as the premier NBA podcast featuring two adult women talking to one another. We are joined by long-suffering Cavs fan Jeff Miller, author of the Nerdy Dozen, to talk Finals excitement levels, coach firings and whether or not Steve Nash is right about Steph Curry or trying to stay relevant. We lose Kim for awhile, but she magically reappears just in time for us to discuss the Cavs texting service that begins today at 5pm. Get ready to pre-game with Basketball Party!! Erin M. Routson is an art director & freelance writer living in Los Angeles, CA. She hung her Cavs jersey at her desk today because you gotta let ’em know. Follow her running commentary on Twitter @dietcokeforever. Kim Huston is a copywriter based in Louisville, KY. She will definitely be receiving a lot of basketball emoji texts from Erin (and Dr. Naismith) very soon.  You can attempt to follow her on Twitter @kimpossiblydire.

BASKETBALL PARTY TWENTY ONE!
BASKETBALL PARTY episode TWENTY ONE maintains its position as the premier NBA podcast featuring two adult women talking to one another. Erin threatens to scream out of joy this entire episode after the Cavs make the Finals for the first time in eight years, we discuss what kind of house divided situation will occur with a Cavs-Warriors Finals, stuff that makes you an adult, a free service to pump up Cavs fans, and plenty of other nonsense. Erin M. Routson is an art director & freelance writer living in Los Angeles, CA. She can be found screaming with joy and mildly talking trash against the Warriors for the foreseeable future. Follow her running commentary on Twitter @dietcokeforever. Kim Huston is a copywriter based in Louisville, KY.

BASKETBALL PARTY TWENTY!
BASKETBALL PARTY episode TWENTY retains its position as the premier NBA podcast featuring two adult women talking to one another. We delve deep into what the future holds in Eastern and Western Conference Finals, discuss whose child is the OG of the presser, and wonder why Beyoncé was wearing a DRose leotard in the “Feelin’ Myself” video, as well as a sneak preview of what we’ll be talking about if we end up with a Hawks-Rockets finals. Erin M. Routson is an art director & freelance writer living in Los Angeles, CA. She still hasn’t had Lebron’s Mix this playoffs season and she is mad about it. Follow her running commentary on Twitter @dietcokeforever. Kim Huston is a copywriter based in Louisville, KY. While she’d probably drink a Lebron’s Mix now that she’s a Cavs fan (sorry Bulls), she prefers Radlers.  You can attempt to follow her on Twitter @kimpossiblydire.

BASKETBALL PARTY NINETEEN!
BASKETBALL PARTY episode NINETEEN returns from its life changes and upheavals as the premier NBA podcast featuring two adult women talking to one another. As we discuss playoffs thus far, we get into the very satisfying removal of inevitability in the Eastern Conference, wonder whether or not the West is actually in play, and debate the merits of billboard advertising when it comes to winning over fans. And just for good measure, we wonder who else will possibly get fired this season. Erin M. Routson is an art director & freelance writer newly living in Los Angeles, CA. She traditionally listens to Jay-Z’s “On To The Next One” with the bass jacked up when the Cavs advance. Follow her running commentary on Twitter @dietcokeforever. Kim Huston is a copywriter based in Louisville, KY. When the Bulls get eliminated, she mourns to the soothing melody of Boyz II Men’s “Water Runs Dry.”  You can attempt to follow her on Twitter @kimpossiblydire.
