David Samson joins the show for The Big Suey, but before we can get to any of the topics we have in store for him, it's time to revisit yesterday's song by Rose destined for a Suey victory. Then, Stugotz argues with Samson over the origins of the Golden At-Bat as David says HE deserves credit for the original idea and that Stu stole it from him. Plus, we find out some more about David and his relationship with speaking to his family at a restaurant that makes us question how human he truly is. Also, Ichiro, Army figurines, Sister Jean's snub, and Jeremy takes the risk of following Rose with a song. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Izzy, Chris, Jeremy, Jessica, and Tony. Dan made a huge mistake yesterday: NOT exploring more within Jessica and her dad's relationship while watching Notre Dame games together. Dan and the crew examine every ounce of what the Smetana household is like on a gameday against USC including singing alma maters, throwing Christmas ornaments, and breaking televisions. Then, Stugotz leaves to go talk to the QB who beat Miami this weekend, Dan is frustrated with the Shipping Container for rummaging through gifts sent to the studio for him, and, despite our best efforts, we end up discussing the College Football Playoff AGAIN. Plus, the Miami Heat blew out LeBron and the Los Angeles Lakers. Izzy and Jeremy discuss whether this was more about the Lakers ineptitude or Tyler Herro and the Heat figuring some things out.

There's only one Jim Rome... and he's never cared if you love him or hate him because he knows if you have a take and don't suck, he “can still go hard.” Things are bound to get wild when The Jungle meets South Beach Sessions. Dan and Jim get together in Los Angeles to reflect on Jim's career as a pioneering game changer in a way he hasn't talked publicly about before. Jim gets personal, talking about what it was like growing up as a try-hard sports nerd and getting his start in radio, then realizing he wouldn’t ever want to do anything else. He also opens up about keeping true to his blunt and honest voice from the very beginning, the cost and regrets of being in the brutal business for decades (and the people he's pissed off along the way), and why his longtime audience is as loyal as they come. Watch Jim Rome's "The Jungle" LIVE daily on X from 9AM to 1PM PT / 12PM - 4PM ET and look for his FAST channel across streaming platforms including Amazon FreeVee, Plex, and Samsung TV Plus.

We kick off Hour 2 with one of our best songs of the year, a tribute to Rose's adventure with pepper spray. Then, Pablo Torre is here to discuss his latest episode of PTFO featuring a butter sculpture of himself, but we need to get Greg "the enemy of funny" Cote to read some edited passages from Fifty Shades of Grey first. Plus, Dan has several topics he'd like to get to before the show ends, but none are more important than Greg's takes on the MLB Hall of Fame and his new shoes from the Wu-Tang Clan.

The crew is trying to figure out a proper way to respond to Rob Manfred stealing Stugotz's idea for the Golden At-Bat. Should Stu sue Major League Baseball for a violation of his intellectual property rights? Then, Matthew Berry is here to discuss disappointing fantasy football performers, unreliable texters, and how he uses his sources to help fans with their fantasy lineups which Dan believes should be illegal. Plus, Dan Patrick pleaded with us to let Dan join him in the middle of us trying to do the show to discuss Miami and the CFP, and after we agreed to join, he only gave Dan five minutes.

Is there a better name for the head of the College Football Playoff committee than Warde? Joe Burrow bought a Batmobile and has thought about pulling up to a game dressed as Batman, but Greg Cote is not very happy about it. Can Joe Burrow make losing cool? Mike Ryan is wearing slacks, and Greg Cote doesn't want to even get started on the Ford Pinto. What was Greg Cote's fourth car? Plus, Smetty and Mike Ryan want Greg to read their new book 50 Shades Of Greg, but, after reading a passage, Greg is refusing to in order to uphold his journalistic integrity. Also, we continue our discussion about the College Football Playoff and revisit Mike Ryan's takes from yesterday including that Syracuse is just as good as Alabama and South Carolina should be in the Playoff.

Today's Cast: Dan, Stugotz, Greg, Chris, Mike, Jeremy, Jess. It's National Signing Day and Dan will get to that eventually, but first we get back to discussing the College Football Playoff. Jess has returned from her Thanksgiving trip to see her parents and learned why she is the way she is after watching Notre Dame with her father. Then, we dive into the most recent College Football Playoff rankings, which have all but eliminated the Miami Hurricanes from the Playoffs. Is it fair that they have been left out in favor of a 3-loss Alabama? Should Notre Dame's loss to Northern Illinois be disqualifying? Isn't Bama's loss to Oklahoma disqualifying? Why doesn't Stugotz care about Ashton Jeanty? While all of this madness is happening, we unearth a classic show bit where Papi reads passages from 50 Shades of Grey to make Dan extremely uncomfortable and bring up some haunting memories.

Not since the Greco-Roman period has sculpture mattered this much in sports. And Jerry Saltz — the Pulitzer Prize-winning senior art critic for New York magazine — has zero idea who Dwyane Wade is. Which is precisely why we asked the erstwhile Jewish Cowboy (we'll explain) to evaluate our athletic Bronze Age, from Michael Jordan to Cristiano Ronaldo. And that's before we get to "I Can't Believe It's Not Pablo (Butter on Gasbag, 2024)." Plus: the conscious uncoupling of art and money, sex workers in Jacksonville, how to make an enemy of envy, and why you can't be a vampire alone. Learn more about your ad choices.

Greg Cote has some Jerry Jeudy takes he didn't get to fire off after last night's "revenge game," and the crew debates whether or not Stugotz should be inducted into the MLB Hall of Fame for giving Commissioner Rob Manfred the idea for the Golden At-Bat.

It's time for a game of "Against the Spread" including a bold take from Lucy on the SEC Championship Game. Then, Sebastian Maniscalco stops by to discuss Season 2 of his show and his latest tour, but first...stickers. After Sebastian is done going after Billy Gil, he chats with Dan, Stu, and the rest of the crew about the origins of his Chicago Bears fandom and how tired he is of losing. He also ends up helping Billy with his sciatica issues. You can watch Season 2 of Sebastian's show "Bookie" on MAX and get tour tickets at sebastianlive.com. And finally, we need to end the day by discussing the details of Greg and Stugotz's book signing in Coral Gables. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Mike and Lucy are still yelling at each other about the University of Miami's merits for the College Football Playoff, and it's time for their closing arguments. How much does recency bias factor in? Is Miami's best win over a 7-5 team? Should Alabama AND South Carolina be out? Do you know ball? Is Syracuse better than 'Bama? DO YOU KNOW BALL? Did you know Syracuse lost to 3-9 Stanford? DO YOU KNOW BALL?!?!?!?!?! Then, it's time for Stugotz's Weekend Observations tackling Andy Reid, the Bears good loss and Lions bad win, LeBron James, Wink Martindale, the grocery store bar, Mike McDaniel, and the Top 5 Athlete Names If They Were Authors.

As Lucy and Mike continue to argue during the break (but not scream because Lucy's a lady), the crew discusses what the point is behind UM putting up Billboards for Cam Ward's Heisman campaign. Then, it's time for Tony's Top 5 from Bayfront Park as he has thoughts on Justin Tucker, Jameis Winston, the Chiefs, the Eagles, and Kirk Cousins. Plus, Dianna Russini is here to both talk very fast and extremely slow about the Chicago Bears' Thanksgiving collapse, Aaron Rodgers and the Jets, Azeez Al-Shaair's suspension, how good the Chiefs actually are, why Russell Wilson worked out too well for the Steelers, and where Shedeur Sanders will be drafted.

Today's cast: Dan, Stugotz, Greg Cote, Chris, Billy, Lucy, and Mike. Even after a high scoring Monday Night Football game last night, the crew begins in the only logical place: flag planting. Greg has his own takes after yesterday's discussion, and Mike wants to get back into it now that he has Bomani Jones on his side. Is planting a flag the ultimate sign of disrespect? Is Dan trying to be the dice man? Does it fall on the coaches? Is flag planting about the line of disrespect, adulthood, or both? Then, we check in with Rose during her "hospital" stay to learn the damage that's been done to her eyes from the pepper spray at the Michigan-Ohio State game. Plus, after admitting the Miami Hurricanes don't deserve to make the CFP on yesterday's show, Mike Ryan has totally reversed course and is claiming the media elite's love of the SEC is the only reason his Canes, who lost 2 of their final 3 games to Georgia Tech and Syracuse, won't make the Playoff. Miami wants 'Bama, and he says they'd beat 'em. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We need to get to some of the stories across the NFL that we couldn't during the main show including Joe Burrow, Russell Wilson, Anthony Richardson, nepotism, "Depend," and Dan's success in the Listener League. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We kick off Hour 2 with Lucy's Off-Rohding as we see the video of the moment Rose was pepper sprayed and find out that Lucy couldn't stop laughing at Rose at it happened...and she can't stop laughing now. Is that a normal coping mechanism...? Then, why are we more upset at college-aged players for planting flags than coaches for escalating and police officers for pepper spraying the players? Plus, Paul Pierce is here to ask about "Ruiz." Pierce discusses how his Celtics used to "out-tough" other teams, why this year's Celtics are the most talented in the league, what "the streets" are saying about Jimmy Butler and the Heat, Dwyane Wade's statue, the biggest challenge for the Celtics, and why Kevin Garnett's answer is "no" to everything at first.

It's the return of the Funniest Thing of the Sports Weekend, highlighted by Matt Eberflus and the Chicago Bears' Thanksgiving collapse. Then, Andrew Luck is BACK, Stugotz has an idea for selecting the 12th team in the 12-team College Football Playoff, and Ryan Day was seemingly more bothered by Michigan planting a flag than people calling for his job. Speaking of Day, Lucy and Mike dive into Ohio State's disappointing loss with the most expensive roster in College Football history, and Lucy explains exactly how Rose was pepper sprayed after the game.
