This episode jumps from real-life weather drama to pure GenX nostalgia and straight into championship football. We kick things off with the winter storm sweeping across America, how it’s impacting people, what it reminds us of, and the last time we can remember a storm that felt this widespread and intense. From there, we rewind to the golden era of 80s cartoons, including He-Man, and talk through the past and upcoming live-action adaptations on the way, what we hope they get right, and why these shows still hit decades later.

Then it’s all football: we break down the latest NFL playoff games, the biggest moments, what surprised us, and which teams will play in the Superbowl. We wrap with the College Football Championship and Indiana getting their first ever national title.

This week we’re calling out MLB’s “no salary cap” reality and how super-spenders like the Dodgers are stretching the sport into a payroll arms race that small-market teams can’t realistically match. Then we hit the NFL coaching carousel—who’s actually got the best opening (and why), plus what each vacancy really offers. We wrap with a playoff temperature check: Divisional Round matchups, who’s built to survive this weekend, and which teams have the cleanest path to Super Bowl LX

This week’s episode is a full-on football check-in, starting with reactions to the latest NFL games—what stood out, who looked legit, and which teams left more questions than answers. We also dig into the college football playoff matchups and what the games told us about momentum, coaching decisions, and who feels built for a championship run.

Then we shift into holiday mode with a fun debate about Christmas music: the songs we actually like, the ones we tolerate, and why it feels like every December is the same playlist loop. We kick around the bigger question—when was the last time a truly “new” Christmas song became a real classic?—and why modern holiday tracks rarely stick the way the old ones have for the past few decades.
