1. A New Podcast with Legendary Roots
NBA legend Carmelo Anthony teams up with comedian and culture critic The Kid Mero to host 7PM in Brooklyn, a digital podcast blending basketball stories, cultural commentary, and New York nostalgia. Produced by Wave Sports + Entertainment, the show premiered in December 2023 and offers a raw, stylish slice of storytelling rooted in Melo’s 19-year NBA career. Carmelo also serves as executive producer through his Creative 7 Productions.
2. What Makes 7PM in Brooklyn Stand Out
More than just game talk—Melo and Mero deliver hip-hop flair, nostalgia, and serious culture commentary with ease:
- They dig into iconic NBA stories, unsung legends, and nostalgic New York moments.
- The podcast’s charm flows from the hosts’ real camaraderie: “like the barbershop, the cypher, or the block,” as Melo puts it.
- Episodes feature guests from Tracy McGrady to Offset to Jermaine Dupri—talk spanning legacy to laughs.
3. Notable Moments that Got Everyone Talking
- Melo shut down Michael Beasley’s 1-on-1 challenge, declaring he’s never lost one: “I’m not losing a one-on-one game, bro.”
- In a wild pre-Olympics story, Melo revealed Larry Brown suspended LeBron, AI & Stoudemire—not for being late—but early. Minds blown.
4. Why You Should Tune In
This isn’t a conventional podcast. It’s a vibe. If you’re into basketball culture, comedic vibes, or deep storytelling from a NYC OG’s perspective, 7PM in Brooklyn is next-level compelling.
