7PM in Brooklyn is the podcast brand built around NBA Hall of Famer Carmelo Anthony — a ten-time All-Star whose nineteen-year career spanned the Denver Nuggets, New York Knicks, and Los Angeles Lakers. Produced as a Wave Original under The Hook, the show positions Anthony as host alongside a rotating crew that includes comedian The Kid Mero, former NBA player Rudy Gay, sports broadcaster Monica McNutt, and journalist Kazeem Famuyide. The name draws on Anthony's Brooklyn upbringing and East Coast tip-off culture, framing the show as a space where basketball and broader cultural conversation meet — with guests ranging from Dwyane Wade and Method Man to Katt Williams and Stephen A. Smith.
The audience skews overwhelmingly male and concentrates in the 25–44 range, a core NBA-following demographic that engages well above category norms across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. A FanDuel sponsorship aligns naturally with that sports-engaged base, while a ZipRecruiter placement broadens the commercial pitch toward working-age men more generally. As a celebrity-anchored show with consistent weekly releases and a cultural scope that stretches beyond pure basketball commentary into entertainment and lifestyle territory, 7PM in Brooklyn is well-positioned to deepen Anthony's post-career media identity and attract advertisers seeking credible access to the Black male sports-and-culture audience.
