The crew is back at it on the Wake & Bake Show with hot takes and wild debates! 🌬️🔥

This week we break down the Detroit Lions’ first loss of the season—was it a fluke or a sign of things to come? Then we tap into the viral moment when Ryan Clark got heated on-air, sparking the age-old question: should non-athletes even have a say in sports commentary? 🏈🎙️

And it wouldn’t be the Wake & Bake without culture talk—so we dive into Carmelo Anthony’s Hall of Fame speechand the drama around him not mentioning LaLa Anthony. Loren LaRosa from The Breakfast Club thinks he should’ve—we disagreed… loudly. 😅

💨 Tune in for the laughs, the smoke, and the real conversations.
