Kenny and Pete prerecorded this episode on Wednesday, March 20th at a late ass time to talk about pro day results, week two of free agency and what energy they're gonna keep now that Vontze Burfict is an Oakland Raider.

Touchdowns and Tangents discusses some of the NFL's biggest movements this week in free agency. They share the winners and losers as well as who else is still out there. Of course, the dynamic duo shares updates on the Rams, Chargers, Raiders and Kyler Murray. Kenny and Pete get into a heated discussion about Phuck Boi culture.

Kenny & Pete talk about the reported and then cancelled Antonio Brown to the Siberia Bills of Buffalo fame trade and what it means for the Pittsburgh Steelers draft options. One might argue the Bills would've won this deal either way. Kenny loves French Vanilla ice cream but he & Pete know Vanilla ice cream isn't really a flavor. (A rant for another time.) The fellas give some free agency and franchise tag updates and close the show dropping jewels on the falsehood of "just work hard & keep your head down" philosophy that keeps getting pushed on millenials in media, specifically journalism. Millenials suffer from permanent job insecurity and "gatekeepers" have lots of outdated advice but all the King's riches. You don't want to miss this.

Kenny & Pete deep dive into the NFL combine, free agency, franchise tags, the demise of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the human trafficking sting New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft got stuck in. We touched on other things and we found a new hood chinese spot.

We celebrate Kenneth's 27th birthday. Pete starts the show with an empowered, justified and emotional tangent filled with righteous indignation regarding Colin Kaepernick settling his collusion lawsuit against the NFL & signing a non-disclosure agreement. We had guests weigh in on if Kaep is truly representing the people or if we wrongfully elevated him to martyr status. We don't have the answers, unbiased, culturally concise commentary. Also, please send your prayers and support to friend of the show, Alex Vejar @alexvreporting who lost his mother to stage four lung cancer.

Kenny & Pete are back to talk Joe Flacco to the Broncos, the evolution and lineage of black quarterbacks and Pete fails horribly at beating Kenny in Fan Court (We own that & created it) over putting RESPECT on the name of Daunte Culpepper. Kenny also compares Culpepper to Cam Newton. There's talk of Kareem Hunt, the latest Colin Kaepernick news and the same embodiment of Culturally Concise Commentary embodied as intellectual petty banter. Check us out on Anchor too. Is stanning a part of culture vulturing?

This podcast is like when the Super Bowl is trash so you & your friends start having racial, ethnic, sociopolitical conversations about pop culture. Also, there was a Super Bowl recap, Pete hates Selena, college football news and Kaepernick updates. This was a heavy episode that opened up discussion of a panel on coalitions. More will be revealed.

On a jam-packed pre-Super Bowl with special guests from Courtside Radio, Mykell Mathieu aka the point guard aka the scorned Chiefs fan and die hard Boston sports fan Alexander Grayson Hymes aka Hymes World. Mykell tried to fan shame Kenny but just like the Chiefs defense, he couldn't get a stop when it mattered. Hymes World gave his explanation on Boston sports culture has on his lineage. Multiple callers like friend of the show Andrew Martinez aka El Jefe and newfound friend "Bob." Last but not least, resident Rams fan and host of "Ladies Night" Mysterious Jacks explained why Kenny is more than welcome & justified in his EARLY transition into being a Rams fan. She also comes to fan court to explain why Raiders fan are the worst & what this podcast to her. Her, Pete and Kenny discuss various reasons how female sports fans enjoy football, the inclusiveness of Los Angeles sports culture, Super Bowl parties and rooftop party culture.

Journalist, published author and DC native by way of New York Malik Obee comes on to discuss his book "Bounce Beat Baby," which entails the illustrious history of Go-Go music and it's influence in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia. He educuates with his perspective living through the Go-Go era an important leaders like Wale. He then details his love affair with HBCU culture, being an alum of Morgan State and his coverage of HBCU football players like Amir Hall and why black quarterbacks get typecasted in the scouting process. Obee goes in on the negative scouting and neglect that HBCU football players get going up to the NFL Draft. Pete calls in from a Lakers game & Kenny wraps the show with a moment of clarity an his first week of school.

First show of 2019 came with energy & invoices to collect. Kenny & Pete talk about the NFL playoffs & then get right to the Pittsburgh Steelers civil war against Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell. Mike Mayock as the Raiders GM, Eli's future and a plethora of college football playoff drama with the University of Miami and Dana Holgerson were touched on. Oh an Kenny's tweet on Survining R Kelly went viral with over 107,000 impressions during the broadcast. All hell broke loose.

Kenny is back from his life changing trip back home to Oakland. Pete came in with Christmas gifts. Friend of the show Ruben Woo pulled up with more gifts & Cowboy banter. The trio talked NFL Playoff seedings, College Football Bowl Season, roundtable topics, New Year's Resolutions & much more on the last episode of 2018.

Pete finally got a solo episode. He held it down while Kenny was away in the Bay Area visiting family. Pete touched on the Josh Gordon situation, Ray Rice, Pro Bowl votes/snubs and Kenny called in. You'll wanna listen to Pete's thesis statement on the Trojan Horse that is analytics an analysis of Pro Football Focus. The show gets closed out with some sports gambling news, Mark Davis, Reggie McKenzie, Super Bowl Halftime Show Travis Scott, Kanye West and Drake.

Pete didn't get pickles on his sandwich and the fallout was aggressive. He attacks the Raiders, Kanye, Vic Mensa and more. Meanwhile, Kenny admits he was wrong about the Chargers and he is skeptical of the Chiefs and Vikings. Lamar Jackson is the starter officially and Amari Cooper is still being skeptical. Other topics include the Seahawks, college players siting out bowl games, Cam Newton, CFB awards and CFB playoffs. Kenny also has some bus stop chronicles and Eric Berry is back.

Pete wasn't in studio because Mother Nature pulled a Tonya Harding on his car but he & Kenny recap some things from the 100th episode, go into a breakdown of the Kareem Hunt & Reuben foster situations, Colin Kaepernick updates, the state of the Washington Redskins, the College Football playoff & some extra special tangents. Shout out to Kenny's sister for turning 21.
