In this episode of The Maza’s Musings Podcast, Chris is joined by Christian McCollum of Irish Sports Daily for a deep dive into Notre Dame’s controversial snub by the College Football Playoff Committee. From metrics and matchups to the politics and perception behind the final rankings, Chris and Christian break down what this decision means for the Irish and for college football as a whole.

But it’s not all gridiron frustration! There’s a bit of holiday heat, too. Chris addresses the surprising backlash he’s been getting on social media after he and Eileen shared their Love It, Like It, Leave It Christmas movie takes in the last episode. From impassioned defenses of beloved classics to the outrage over which films landed on the “leave it” list, he reflects on the spirited responses from listeners.

And speaking of listener reactions, Chris also reads a fresh batch of your own Love It, Like It, Leave It Christmas movie lists.
