We recap the NFL playoffs and the coaching carousel, but mostly we focus on Josh Allen's troubles and Justin Herbert’s allergy to winning big games. Brad also tries to process the trauma of the Patriots being just one win away from another Super Bowl, on top of the Knicks being officially a mess. So, he's distracting himself by looking ahead to seeing The Outsiders on Broadway this Thursday.

First show of the new year! We’re officially retiring the Hot QB bets because Week 18 is a disaster of backup players, but we made enough cash to plan a victory dinner at Peter Luger's. We admit we might have been wrong about the NBA East (it's actually good?), while the West—and specifically the Lakers—may be a total flop. Naturally, this leads to another round of bashing Anthony Davis. Plus, Vince shares his "culinary" experience at Texas Roadhouse.

Tom returns, and he and Brad are "hyped" about the Knicks making the NBA Cup Finals and what it actually means for the franchise. We look west to see whether the Lakers are still relevant and whether the Thunder are actually going to make history this season. Vince tries to rebrand our betting strategy from Hot QBs to "Hot Tight Ends" (because of course he does), and we gloat about the massive wins we scored making picks on the dance floor Saturday night. Plus, we learn about the gay hockey romance genre.

We review this week's hot QB picks, and it's getting suspicious—is Brad actually reading Vince's mind to figure out who he thinks is hot? We talk about the wild parity in the NFL and why nobody knows who is actually good. In the NBA, we ask the big question: Is there a single team that can actually beat the OKC Thunder? Plus, Brad gives us his recap of the immersive Masquerade.

Stu stops by to give his unfiltered take on the Warriors' season so far and joins us for another round of our foolproof hot QB picks. We discuss our anxiety over Wembanyama's injury troubles and try to figure out which timeline we’re living in, where the Pistons are 12-2 and leading the East. To wrap things up, we get meta and spill the tea on our favorite (and least favorite) podcasters.

Tom and Aaron join us this week, so Tom is back to give us his hot QB picks for next week. We grade the historic Jets trade - was the massive fire sale a smart tank or just typical Jets? Naturally, we're already looking ahead to the NFL draft (as is tradition). We also get into some NBA talk, which serves as our weekly reminder that the Luka trade remains one of the worst trades in the history of trades. Plus, Brad gives a little history lesson on the Jets' doomed West Side stadium project that never was.

Vince recaps his trip to Minnesota. We get the full rundown on his Midwestern adventure. Our sacred mission of betting on hot quarterbacks continues to line our pockets, and we’re not sorry about it. We also get into the first few days of the NBA season, which is really just The Wembanyama Show (and we're obsessed). To cap it off, Brad offers his theatre reviews, so get ready to hear what he hated.

Michael joins us to discuss the upcoming NBA season, and we cover all the bases: Kawhi's troubles, the debut of Ozempic Luka, and why the East is looking so weak. Of course, our brilliant investment strategy of betting on hot quarterbacks continues to make us money. We also take a moment to give a much-deserved salute to the gay icon, Jane Pauley.
