In episode 144 of the Chop Shop Show, hosts Daryl Newton and Reverend Waldo Woodard (Greg Doss absent) welcome three passionate female superfans—Queen Shani Brown (Buccaneers for life), Carla (Cowboys fan born in Tampa but raised on her dad's Texas roots), and a Kansas City born-and-raised Chiefs superfan—for a raw discussion ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft. The ladies unpack true fandom, sharing how they became die-hard supporters while emphasizing that female fans keep it classy—no blocking or falling out after losses.

They break down Bucs draft history (Vernon Hargreaves, OJ Howard, Vita Vea, Devin White), Jerry Jones' influence on the Cowboys, rivalries, Michael Parsons trade reactions, Antonio Brown antics, Tyreek Hill's exit, tailgates, upcoming Usher & Chris Brown concerts, and away-game travel.

  • The Derby Wine Soirée, Scholarship Giving, and Tampa Community Love
    Apr 14 2026

    The Chop Shop Show episode with Daryl Newton, Greg Doss, and Waldo Woodard centers on the return of special guest Devonna Tucker and Allen Bronson to talk about the Derby Wine Soirée, the Dana Kay Foundation, community giving, scholarships, and the growth of local support around Tampa. The conversation blends humor, family dynamics, and serious purpose as the hosts break down how the event has grown from a backyard celebration into a bigger venue experience, while keeping its mission focused on raising money for a scholarship fund in memory of Devonna's late sister. They also discuss the reality of building something from the ground up, the importance of genuine sponsorships, and the need for people to support one another in practical ways, whether through donations, volunteerism, or simply showing up. Along the way, the episode touches on entrepreneurship, the value of family backing, the challenges of event promotion, and why giving back matters in communities where needs can be easy to overlook. The tone stays lively and conversational, with plenty of jokes, side stories, and playful roasting, but the core message remains clear: support the mission, honor the memory, and keep building something meaningful for Tampa and beyond.
