In the second installment of Full Court Conversations, Whitney and Marcos are back to recap a week of "calm timing" and high-stakes hoops. The duo kicks things off with a shoutout to Toby the Dog before diving into the chaos of back-to-back Saturday parties and why Marcos is officially a "wall-holder." The conversation heats up as the guys pivot to the NBA, where LeBron’s recent "old head" behavior is officially costing them fantasy points. We’re building the ultimate "Old Head" Fantasy Draft featuring Shaq, Curry, and KD, while debating if Dennis Rodman is a hustle legend or a "bot.com" streamer. Plus, a deep dive into the 2013 Finals, why big men shouldn't be shooting threes, and why Kon Knueppel might be outshining Cooper Flagg right now.

Life Lately: Toby the dog, gym grinds, and the art of "holding the wall" at parties.

The Fantasy Sabotage: Why LeBron needs to stop passing and start scoring for the sake of the parlay.

Drafting Greatness: Whitney and Marcos build their all-time squads. Can Shaq stop Jokic? (Marcos says: Absolutely not.)

The Ray Allen Debate: Revisiting the most clutch three in NBA history and the death of traditional basketball positions.

Welcome back to the studio! In this spine chilling second episode of Screams on Screens your hosts, Isabella, Citlalic, Margie and Kelly dive deep into the shadows of true crime. We are breaking down two new Reddit stories this week; one a terrifying stalking story and the second close call at a gas station that proves you should always trust your gut! Making personal connections, Citlalic speaks about her own families’ stalking experience and Isabella shares her own kidnapping survival story to explore the real life, “What would you do?” scenarios that keep us up at night. If you haven’t yet, go back and catch our debut episode on Slenderman and MoMo for more digital haunts! For now, stay alert, stay safe, and remember to scream for help!

Get ready to cheer, CCMSA! Our Girls Softball team is hitting the field today for an epic showdown against Frederick Douglass Academy.

The girls have been working incredibly hard at practice, and they’re ready to bring the heat, the hustle, and some serious home-run energy.

In this insightful episode, 11th-grader Cecilia Williams goes behind the scenes of the City College Magnet School of the Arts (CCMSA) with Visual Arts teacher and Magnet Site Coordinator, Mr. Curti.

Together, they peel back the layers of the federal magnet grant, discussing what it really means to be a "maestro" of a magnet school and how a large-scale grant actually functions. The conversation demystifies Arts Integration, explaining that it isn't about turning math into art, but rather using creative principles to unlock new ways of learning across all subjects.

From the origin story of the school’s podcasting equipment to Mr. Curti’s early dreams of working for Pixar, this episode explores how student passions and teacher support create a sustainable legacy that lasts long after the funding ends.

The hardwood is ready and the nets are up as the City College Magnet School of the Arts (CCMSA) Hawks has officially launched their 2026 Boys Varsity Volleyball season. Competing in the Manhattan I Division, the Hawks are looking to make a major statement this spring.
