Julius Randle Keeps It Real On Knicks Career, European Players, Kobe Stories & More | EP 16 

PG WE KNOW YOU CAN MAKE A RUSSELL WESTBROOK POD HAPPEN!!! MAKE IT HAPPEN BRO. I need it bro 😭 Edit: I think the only way we get Russ is if he resigns with the clippers.. it would be weird for him to be on the pod before he even signs. Pg and Russ might get fine lol. RESIGN OR NOT I NEED THAT POD

I have a newfound respect for Julius, he will get right because he’s still hungry at this stage of his career.

A TRUE KNICKS FAN HERE, I APPRECIATE ALL THE SUCCESS YOU BROUGHT US RANDLE YOU THE TRUTH SALUTE!! 💪🏼

Gained a new respect after this interview. Julius is a solid dude. Us Knicks fans need to support him more instead of trashing him

they tell the jean shorts story every episode and it’s just as funny every time 😂😂😂

Will always respect Randle for what he brought to the Knicks I really hope he gets out of his head next year we needed him this year in the playoffs

Russ on the pod would be fun as hell to watch. He’d thrive in this kind of environment and positive, cheerful setup.

This is a dope pod. As a Knicks fan it’s real cool seeing this side of Julius. Awesome personality and funny. I appreciated this and am really enjoying it. I’m 31 min in, but I had to say this.

As a knick fan, it was real cool to see Julius in this element....his interaction with P, his personality, his candor, etc....we really don't get to see him in this light during regular in-season interviews etc....this was no doubt refreshing. I have a new found respect for him, this interview was able to give us a real glimpse into who he is. There is a reason why P is my favorite player, bro is just solid across the board. Salute to yall.

Good to see Julius in this setting and smiling. This injury may turn out to be a good thing for him. Allow him to slow down, watch film. Get well soon big bro and comeback better next year

Podcast P never misses with his guests! love this show.

Thank you Randle for bringing stablity back to the Knicks and getting us back to the playoffs

PG you and the team are really really good at this bro keep up the good work

Coming off my own ankle injury && this episode has definitely locked me in. I appreciate Randle & PG even more than I did. Their mentalities are gems mane. Dope episode🔥

Best NBA pod out today no cap!!

SHOUT OUTS RANDLE I APPRECIATE YOU BROTHER THINK IM FINALLY OVER THE MIAMI SERIES LOSS. WE GOING BE BETTER 🔥🙏🏻

Love these pods, really humanises players. Would’ve never though Julius has a personality like this by watching him play.

Respect to both pg13 and Randle I forget that they both had crazy leg injuries and they both came back and been playing at all star levels for a while now

Julius Randle is such a genuine guy. Truly just a happy, family guy. So much respect for him. NBA fans all across the country seem to hate on him without trying to understand him at all. Dude is a HOOPER!!!! Can't wait to watch him get back out there and do what he does best! Great Podcast!!

So cool to watch my favorite player growing up have his own podcast man like from your Indiana days to OKC, just to see these conversations is so dope. PG13, appreciate you 🫡

NOT ALL KNICKS FANS ARE IDIOTS. I APPRECIATE JULIUS RANDLE.

Another podcast guest I haven’t seen on other shows. P bringing new material. More respect for Julius after this.

Man ive always rooted for Julius. Hope he gets one for NY

Rip Kobe man them stories be funny😂, this episode was fire🤘🏾

I’m not giving up on Julius! He’s available 77 games during regular season and played hard! Cant trade someone like that and he put up 25/10/8! His playoff slump will end with Brunson as his teammate!

damn really enjoyed this one respect julius for being honest and opening up about his struggles in the league early on to becoming the player is today was awesome

Back to back classics. You got you a series P 💪🏾

Randle has a great mindset you can tell he’s always absorbing information

This was amazing, Paul George is actually a really good interviewer

This interview was it... Thanks PG and crew. Julius continue pushing for greatness. Your hard work and dedication will lead you to the successes you desire. Knicks Mob!!!!!

RANDLE NEEDED THIS BREAK FR THE GAME. HE'S DEFINITELY GONNA BE BETTER NEXT YEAR FOR US 🙏🏾

Love you Randle. Hope you understand the frustration us Knick fans have with your game in the playoffs, that's all. You are a big part of our team and a great player, some Knicks fans just can't get past the lackluster performances on the biggest stage. I love you tho, and will always be appreciative of you making us relevant again

As a Knick fan , Randle gets too much hate and im guilty of it too. Hearing him now , i see why his teammates like him

Played Julius in Highschool and that dude was a MAN amongst children. Absolute freak of nature.

Julius is a great story teller. Probs my favourite episode of the Podcast so far 💯

paul's gift is listening not talking ironically thats what makes a podcaster.

This podcast is soooo good fam. Please keep this up man. The info is great fr.

never really got into podcasts until i started to listening yours, and you got me hooked! keep it up bro, you're my favorite nba player!

Hearing Julius talk about footwork is precisely why he was MIP. Such an underrated part of the game. Thanks for this. Gonna be checking this podcast out from here on out.

This was my favorite one so far I coulda watched a whole nother two hours of this

Awesome some advice from Randle, sometimes you just gotta breathe. Also shout out to the Pod P team, I don't usually listen to podcasts, but these podcasts have have helped me a lot on advice I can give you my own boy to help with his basketball.

This convo about 2k actually helping your game is exactly what I watch this typa podcast for like you always wonder if players can ever take anything from video games and it's so funny that it deadass can help in some ways. I know a few pro drifters who's gaming setups really help them get better at drifting lol

I’ve always Respected Julius, I hope he comes back better than he was last year, and he plays better in the playoffs.💯

If Randle can finally sort it out in the playoffs we’re cooking. Someone needs to help him mentally overcome that hurdle

This best podcast out right now. Paul and the whole squad really got something great brewing. Y’all keep goin!

i love this podcast bro so insightful and reinforces that these guys go through the same problems and are human just like everybody else

Love the content! It would be dope if you guys took fan questions when you preview the upcoming guest and then ask during the live segment! ✊🏽

Maybe the blessing in Julius’s injury is that he’ll finally take the opportunity to study film. I can’t believe that he doesn’t watch film,but it’s kinda obvious in the repetition of mistakes and types of turnovers he commits. He can only benefit from this going into next season and beyond. Admittedly his MIP season came after Covid and forcibly having to watch film. Understandable to see how he struggles during the playoffs with all the in game and game to game adjustments

This my first time ever tuning in to PGs podcast. Pretty great, let’s go Knicks!

Congratulations guys, the chemistry is amazing between all the guests and host. Big ups the P as you have turned your podcast to like a two way conversation between your guests and the host

Love these podcasts. I'm a fan of Randle now.

​Aye!! Mad love to this podcast. Love the content and the charisma of this show. Also, here is a solid fan from Carolina, P.R. 00987.

I’ve been sleeping on this podcast, this interview was so good. Congrats Julius -#Lakers 😃 PG 👏🏼👏🏼

Podcast P I’m locked in every episode loving the vibe basketball life is so real😎shoutout to P and the team I’m learning so much about the life of the 🏀 and other prospectives…. Dropping 💎

The Matte Baldy killed me 😂😂😂

Julius is my favorite player, and he frustrates me more than anyone because I know what he can be. He just has to show up in the post season.

Paul I just want you to know that you are my favorite player. You are my kobe in today’s era! Thank you for coming up with these podcasts! Ive watch each and every episode love all of them!

Everytime i watch one of these the player they have as a guess always wins me over and something about seeing how they are makes me become a fan. And it's fitting that's it's on a pod hosted by my favorite player

Jackie is a menace for that tshirt😭😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂

Appreciate this interview to the fullest it gives my man Messiah a chance to be able to laugh and have fun during his healing process. Also gave me some inside life to PG. Everybody know Julius's is my guy. I got two songs on him . The first being M.I.P., and the second one is ( No Games Off.) Which is on my Knicks sound track. J-Boogie Presents My Sunshine is out on all platforms for all Hip Hop and Knick Fans. Salute Salute Salute 3 Capital's 🧡💙🗽🙏🌹🎤

Yes!!! Randle more interviews please!!! Loved it. I been supporting you and this really made you look human. get well and I cant wait for next year

I watch every episode I love that you bring the us who they are as a person like you said you would!!!! ❤❤❤❤

Very interesting interview, never knew Julius was this damn cool. Great to get some perspective on how dudes really are through these podcasts!

As much as Knicks fans give him problems, you have to respect the fact that he came to NY and worked his way into being an All NBA player! If Knicks fans weren’t so desperate for anything, they would appreciate him so much more!

First watch on this channel. Quickly subbed and now binge watching past episodes. Well done

I now respect Julius courage to always get better. Its kinda like me to follow my dream to get to nba and get better and train myself. Remember this name im Justin Xavier Maldonado hopefully you will see me in the future.

Kawhi in the show would be dope 🎉

Thank you to Julius Randall and thibs for bringing Knicks nation back on the winning track. All the Knicks fans hating y’all are absolutely ridiculous. This man doesn’t need to be traded. We on the right track and let’s stay that way.

As a Knicks fan, I'm glad to see Julius on here. Feel like he's a bit misunderstood as a player so it was refreshing to hear his perspective. Sidenote: Hearing PG plays NCAA 14 and MyCareer is wild. Hope I run into you one day on the court or gridiron! 🔥🔥

Podcast P The Best Basketball Podcast Of All Time 🔛🔝

Randle deserves his flowers for real. Gets so much hate for nothing, people acting like it's easy to reach All NBA teams or drop 25/10/5 in the league. Real Knicks fans rock with him. Lets go Ju!

Knick fans love you, Julius.

I love how much fun the guests have on this show

Man thanks yall for sharing so much of your lives with us this is such a great pod I grew up playing ball ive loved the game since I was a little boy watching Clyde on the blazers in the early 90's and to have the access we do now to you guys is so fucking awesome

Julius randle we luv you brodie in New York🤞🏼💙

Great convo! Randle seems relaxed

The best guest and episode so far 👏🏼👏🏼

Amazing podcast . Congrats to everyone involved

As a Knicks fan, Randle gets way too much hate. He brought the Knicks back to relevancy and he is an ambitious player. Looking forward to next season!

NEW YORK FOREVER. LOVE YOU BIG JU 🧡💙

Good to see #30 like this, im 43 so i have never seen a Knicks Championship, its tough to play in NY but he wanted to come here.

Podcast p bringing that heat 🔥🔥

Respect Ju. 2x All-NBA

If Julius can bring his A game during the playoffs he be All Star for real.

every episode the guest talks about his childhood basketball stories “But idk if you knew me, P, Klay & Jrue were on the same AAU team”

I don't miss episode of this podcast...so dope

This one of the best nba podcast out there rn

Bros voice is deep as shit

Drose needs a podcast

so much love guys!

man these podcasts are sooo fire

I need the Donovan Mitchell episode!

Salute to randle ..George would be a perfect fit on the Knicks

Love this Podcast, the guys don't miss

Podcast P is the best podcast

Him not watching film says alot. He doesn't recognize defenses or double teams well and makes mad decisions with his reads. This explains why he turns the ball over so much and panics in clutch situations because all the work he puts in is skill related and not mental

D rose is my favorite player of the all time so hearing how much respect Julius has for him is amazing to me

Shout out to P. Most entertaining basketball podcast out rn

Podcast P!! The best doin it.
