Sonic Saves The Day In Detroit! 24.11.2025 53:43
Czabe flies solo on a Sunday evening, and did extensive grinding on all the NFL Week 12 games to make up for his gaffe on Friday by omitting the Colts and Chiefs game. The Lions get bailed out by Jahmyr Gibbs, the Vikes have a huge J.J. McCarthy problem, the Bears are 8-3, but are they any good? Shedeur wins his Browns debut. And much more. Plus, a simple answer to the question: "How are you?&...
You Can't Eat Either of These Chickens 20.11.2025 1:00:20

Big Hat, All Attitude 19.11.2025 36:10
Czabe goes solo on "Getaway Day" from Virgin, UT. Some thoughts on Charch's lovely new home. Lane Kiffin already sniffin' 'round the ol' SEC for more money and a new landing spot. NFL Week 11 mop-ups. You "are" what your record "says" you are... sorta. To an extent. State Troopers in Texas deserve respect. But man, their ability to go nuclear a-hole because...
Swampy and Ugly, But The Wins Keep Comin' 18.11.2025 51:39
The Green Bay Packers might be the most frustrating "good" team in the NFL right now. 6-3-1 and could easily (should be) the NFL's only 10-0 squad. But after a greasy win vs. Jameis Winston and the Giants, the questions just keep piling up. WOLFIE and GITTER join me as the "Tuesday Boys" go through the pros and cons from Sunday. Also, Jamar Chase, the latest idiot NFL player to...
Waking Up In Vegas 17.11.2025 1:36:37

A.I. Is Writing Better Songs About Dogs and Trucks Than People Now 13.11.2025 54:28
Czabe and CHARCH engage in some serious music nerderation. There's a massive mop up on aisle 3 about the Edmund Fitzgerald. The band who gamed Spotify and rose to stardom. When do we get to start making our own hyrbrid music albums? Is there a glimmer of hope in the doomcast of artificial intelligence? Czabe perdicts a "retreat to humanity." MORE.....

The Football Equivalent of Scratch Offs At The Counter 12.11.2025 39:37

Indiana Miracle Catch Broke Gus Johnson 10.11.2025 1:14:00
Czabe wraps up a crazy weekend in sports. Starting with the "greatest catch" in football history? The play absolutely wrecked Gus Johnson's voice, which was either an epic call, or another "nails on chalkboard" indictment of the Fox screamer. ANDY POLLIN joins to discuss the Commanders getting destroyed by the Lions. Trump appearance goes poorly. Wisconsin storms the field. Big...
It's An Upside Down League 06.11.2025 59:41
Czabe welcomes on Mr. X to talk about why the faves can go 10-2 two weeks ago, and then the dogs go 9-5 the next week for no damn reason. If only we knew how and why. NFL refs are putting the screws to taunting penalties this year, and nobody likes it. Apparently nobody holds against Ohio State. Like, nobody. Are owner press conferences mid-season ever a good thing (no!) so why do some people like...
J-E-T-S Sell, Sell, Sell! 05.11.2025 50:14
The NFL Trade Deadline provided some real sparks again this year. With the Jets accumulating an astonishing haul of 5 first-rounders in the next years with a pair of trades. Obviously, Jerrah is desperate in Dallas, but will his old man moves make a difference to a sinking season? Don't be a fake hard-o about Halloween, Matt LaFleur. PAUL CHARCHIAN joins me and talks cloned dogs, bending the k...
Maybe The Throwback Thing In The NFL Has Jumped The Shark? 04.11.2025 1:20:40

Czabe explains how he understands the "go for 2" right away strategy, and Mr. X notices that the K-balls D...
"Okay, So We're Gonna Need To Get Our Story Straight" 27.10.2025 46:19
The NFL should hammer the Ravens for the Lamar injury stunt this week, but they shouldn't. ANDY POLLIN joins the show to talk about another snooze filled week in the NFL. It's incredible just how many ways the refs keep fucking up calling Philly's "tush push." Czabe talks about the limits of using Grok for his radio "homework." MORE . . Our Sponsors: * Check out Troll C...
Make Onsides Kicks Great Again! 23.10.2025 50:45
Czabe goes off on idiots who think a "4th and 15" makes any sense. How about just go back to the old rules? MR X joins for a rousing edition of "What Are You Doin?" Payton throws shade at Dangeruss. Aaron Glenn's tactical "advantage" ain't what he thinks. Who are in the "basket of deplorables"? Investigate any coach kicking field goals in final minute, while...

We Are Living In A Instant Replay Hellscape 21.10.2025 46:59
Czabe has a message for the replay lovers out there: he HATES you. Look at what you have done! Hockensen play the latest utter joke. The Giants throw away the game vs. Denver. Rushing 3, genius idea, you coward! Who is Jude McAtamney? Brad Allen is a crybaby snitch. Scared money don't make money? Oh, then why you scared? Bright Lights want a refund. Stop overthinking 4th and 1, coaches! Christ...
Did The Vikings Find The Tush Push Antidote? 20.10.2025 36:14
Czabe had a healthy hands-off relationship with the NFL on Sunday. Golf and family, with only a smattering of game watching. ANDY POLLIN joins to discuss the Commanders' rapidly collapsing season, the personnel missteps of Adam Peters. Plus the nuttiness that is college football and coaching buyouts. Shohei Ohtani is amazing, but Czabe says when leagues feel "rigged," it's a long-t...
If You're Gonna Lose, At Least Lose Pretty 16.10.2025 54:18
Czabe welcomes Mr. X to his usual Thursday spot. They talk about how easy/hard it is to "lean into" a pitch in a crucial spot, and how bad Brice Turang's blunder was on Monday night.

The Ol' Unassisted GIDP To Steal a Grand Slam. No Biggie. 15.10.2025 1:03:08
The wildest play anyone's ever seen in a MLB playoff game, and a few more that broke baseball fans' brains. DirecTV is going to make custom commercials starring . . . well . . . you. Thanks, artificial intelligence! Curse of the 1.01 QB. The league's unhealthy addiction to quarterbacks. Looks like JJ McCarthy is getting a "soft benching" in Minnesota. Charch is filled with grat...
The Old Man and The Horse 14.10.2025 1:14:55
Czabe talks about the ancient Chinese proverb about good and bad fortune, and how one can never tell which way life is going to go.
