Back to the basics this week, as we’re gimmick free in previewing week 11. Akiva says NFL refs can’t pay attention in the last 30 seconds, perhaps because they don’t get paid overtime. Alex provides an update on Peyton/Brady career ranks, with Brady making a huge jump on Peyton this year, but Brady needs another […]

Akiva and Alex jump back in where they left off last week, ranking NFL head coaches 16 to 1.  We start with #16 Chuck Pagano before learning of Andrew Luck’s injury, but once the news comes out we jump back and rerecord, allowing both Alex and Akiva to show off their deep medical knowledge of the […]

Recorded Monday afternoon before the Colts/Panthers game, this week features a mournful Akiva still recuperating from a tough Sunday. We start with the Mets’ crushing World Series loss, but Akiva quickly turns to a rant about the Jets and their coach Todd Bowles. Alex brings it back to the Mets so that he can hate […]

With every team in the NFL having played 4 games, Akiva and Alex reset their power rankings, comparing them to the preseason to see which teams have excelled and which have faltered.

In a shocking development, Alex drives over to Akiva’s house to watch the Vikings/Broncos game (on delay) and then record an in-person podcast. Due to crying children, angry wives and a brother itching to drive home, this week’s episode is truncated, but those demanding an in person podcast (with apologies to Ari Gold for not bringing him along to witness it) have […]

Another podcast delayed by the Jewish holidays, this week Alex travels to Israel to visit Akiva, but the guys are still recording over Skype, albeit it from only a few miles away from each other. Fair warning: Alex goes a little nuts on Akiva when Akiva describes the Vikings as “awful” (did Akiva miss week 2 and week 3?).

Recorded in the afterglow of a huge Jets victory on Monday Night Football, Akiva is so exuberant that he brings on a guest in fellow Jets fan (and podcast alum) Av Sinensky, who makes sure to diss Colts fan Jake Lewin. Alex also scrambles back aboard the Vikings bandwagon, “crowing” about the win over Detroit and […]

At the end of the podcast Seattleite Ari […]

Today we’ve reach the 3rd-ranked New England Patriots and we’re joined by Pats fan Michael Clark. But whatever could we talk about with a Patriots fan? This one will be a doozy. But eventually we do get to discussing the 2015 Pats on the field. Also, in an effort to get all of America to […]
