Halloween might be over, but things are "still spooky" in the UFC. The sport is reeling from a major betting scandal after the Isaac Dulgarian vs. Yadier del Valle fight, and Dave, Fred, and AJ are digging into the details.
The crew discusses the suspicious betting lines [cite: 27], Dulgarian's "weird" performance [cite: 35], and the fact that the FBI is now officially investigating[cite: 22]. Why did the UFC let the fight happen, and how deep does this go? [cite: 39] Is this connected to the James Krause scandal?
Then, the guys shift to the massive card coming to MSG: UFC 322. They break down the two epic champ vs. champ fights:
- Islam Makhachev vs. Jack Della Maddalena: Can Islam's wrestling translate to 170? [cite: 374, 378]
- Zhang Weili vs. Valentina Shevchenko: Who wins this co-main super-fight?
PLUS: The disastrous Aspinall vs. Gane eye-poke [cite: 492], the debate on fighter pay [cite: 254], and a preview of this weekend's "not great" Fight Night[cite: 369].

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
