Czabe runs out the clock on 2025 in style, with a 53-minute solo masterpiece, the kind of podcast excellence you have come to expect from him. John Calipari is spitting hot nails of truth, but he's very off point in one regard. The greatest catch that wasn't. Joe and Troy are absolutely cooking right now. It's been a weird year for QB's. Draymond Green needs to shut up about the Christmas NBA. Nate Bargatze is all ...
Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN, who needs advice on how to teach his non-golfing wife how to golf. Even though he sucks too! Advice for moving to a "warm Christmas" state. The 49ers are the T2000 Terminator. They just keep coming. Aaron Rodgers sucked on Sunday, and a 14-year-old kid in his basement did the full tape breakdown. Could Malik Willis become the next "Vegas QB Wedding" victim of a short sample size? They ...
Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN to discuss this hypothetical. Also in there, Mike Tomlin doing Tomlin things again, the case for firing objectively good coaches, some statistical nuggets from Week 17, was the Phil Rivers experiment a heartwarming little episode, or a waste of time? Jeff Pearlman should know his phone is not his therapist. RIP to Brigitte Bardot. MORE.....

Czabe has slipped this little Christmas gem into your podcast feeds today. ARMEN SARYAN and MATT MUELLER talk about the iconic Home Alone movie, which has way more Christmas in it than Czabe previously admitted. Some say there's a Jesus "cameo" of sorts in the movie. We'll explain, you be the judge. Also, what was American Airlines thinking, spending sponsor money just to have the movie script make them look bad!? A...
Czabe brings aboard ERIC GITTER to atone for his utter jinxing of the Bears/Packers game by calling "D-A-G-G-E-R" too early.

Gary Meyers had the Giants ultimate "trade down" plan. Problem is, they'll probably...
Czabe welcomes his boy MARK SPENCER (Spence-O-Matic) to the podcast to discuss his beloved Jaguars, who have now put themselves on everybody's radar with a massive win over Denver at Mile High. Spence explains why their head coach came in piss hot to the job, and how he's meshing with franchise QB Trevor Lawrence. They also discuss why Jacksonville is so prickly about "market size bashing" and I find out an interest...
Czabe welcomes ANDY POLLIN to recap Week 16 in the NFL, starting with the wild zebra conference at the end of Lions v. Steelers. WFAN eliminates its iconic 20-20 tickers. The FanDuel Networks might go dark mid-NBA season. AI-written "game stories" are a complete and utter joke. Ed Cooley got suspended for throwing a water bottle. The Bears stun the Packers in a manner similar to the 2014 NFC Championship Game. The Commander...
Czabe enjoys a Power Lunch at the Palm in Tysons Corner, VA with "Mr. X" and Steve Buckhantz. Sadly neither one of them saw the absurd sequence of kid glove calls Bron got at the end of the Suns/Lakers game. And he still should have been suspended for pushing a ref. But hey, the league has been co-opted by LeBron and his minions. Also Josh Hart gooses Jalen Brunson. Fair play on a funny prank, or out of bounds humor? What d...
Czabe delivers a killer double-shot today, with guests SCOTT DOLPHIN from FM106 in Milwaukee plus PAUL CHARCHIAN. Dolph talks Bears v. Packers with Czabe, and reminisces about the two rivalry games they saw together. Caleb Williams unintentionally recreated the iconic Joe Montana to Clark TD pass, but even more rizz. The origin of the "Good Better Best" chant by Ben Johnson. Dolph sings "Bear Down." Charch meanwhile...

Czabe and ANDY POLLIN break down the ruinous Week 15 results that crushed both the Chiefs and Packers' postse...
Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the pod for his weekly chop-em-up. What does the Colts calling Philip Rivers off the couch "say" about the NFL? The boys have wildly different views. A sidetrip down what constitutes the "Hall of Fame." Czabe revisits a painful but iconic play that went against Charch's Vikings when he was a young boy. Travis Kelce was once a dork, and loved dating the sistas! Where's Taylor?...
Czabe welcomes MATT MUELLER - a "man about film" along with ERIC GITTER to discuss the Netflix news and what it *might* mean to the future of movies (spoiler: the good guy dies. Shhhh...). They also get into what else, the college football playoffs, and the lying ass committee. My podcast guru CHRIS BROUSSARD (no, not that guy) joins us, and as a father with 2 sons who went to Notre Dame, he was ready to stuff me into a loc...
Czabe welcomes MR X to the pod, as they go through some of the idiotic decisions, brutally bad instant replay calls, laughable "concussion awareness protocol" in the NFL and more. Also Mr. X weighs in on the Selection Committee. Czabe points out how what they are trying to do is actually impossible. Also replay is the *cause* of so many of these stupid rules. The Raiders bad beat. Portnoy goes too far. Fire Kevin Stefanski....

And now Notre Dame is throwing a hissy fit. Whatever. The Commanders get demolished in MInnesota, and Jayden Daniels is hurt aga...
Czabe welcomes STEVE BUCKHANTZ and CHRIS KNOCHE to the Palm in Tysons for a Power Lunch. They discuss issues like "how powerful really is" agent Jimmy Sexton? And is Nick Saban just the unlikable slimy prick you thought of him before all the winning? Or is Czabe too damn naive to even think otherwise? Knoche talks about the Players Era Invitational in Vegas. Buckhantz hopes his JMU Dukes somehow get a miracle berth in the C...
Czabe welcomes PAUL CHARCHIAN to the show and they get deep into the nerd weeds on the state of video games. Charch also introduces Czabe to "RiffTrax" and his world is not quite the same anymore. "There's so much room for activities!" The Vikings Max Brosmer should have been told to surrender his helmet and jersey on the spot. Plus they aren't any good at trading lately either. The Patriots have hit the qui...
Czabe welcomes ERIC GITTER and MATT MUELLER to discuss Lane's messy departure, the big problems facing the 12-team playoff in college football, famous sorta-hot spokeswomen, the Mike Tomlin Air Defense force has been activated, and more.

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
