Episode #159 - Consider the Salad

Recorded on 1/9/14

We got back after it after a month off, and it was an excellent 2 hours of sports and other stuff talk. The sports landscape here in NY, no matter who you root for, is pretty bleak. Cal has basically morphed into Debbie Downer, Sanpete hasn't bought his Mets hat for 2014 (a very, very bad sign).

Add to that the current state of sports discourse here in the city is about as fun as a date with a rabid jackal and you can see we are facing our greatest challenge in four years of doing this show... can we make this sh*t fun again???!!!! Well, we did. We figured out that there's an oversaturation point with the negative narratives surrounding the teams in our town, so we started the ball rolling on tuning it out and just enjoying the damn games, both watching and talking about.

Along the way we talked college sports fan allegiance, Rowdy Roddy Piper book titles, doing celebrity impressions while reading books to your kids to keep it interesting, and why PJ shouldn't be eating "tall BLT's", calls himself buddy when he talks to himself, and begs us to "consider the salad".

We then had a quick discussion about shower habits... for some it's a business trip, for others, a vacation from themselves.
