The Big Rigs

por Kieran Dean

Temporada 2

Episode LI - We're back!

The Rigs returned after an extended absence. Did we miss anything? Pete gives us a quick update on the Nashville office, Ric celebrates a championship, and we welcome a representative of Chicago to the show. Did we coerce an apology out of Chicago?

Episode L - FINAL FOUR

The Rigs return before the biggest weekend in the history of Purdue athletics. Ric is locked in before heading out to Phoenix with the social media team, Pete is laying on the couch accepting credit from all sources, and Dean is mentally preparing for a world where Matt Painter is a national champion. We break down the Final Four matchups, toss out a few picks, blindfold Ric, and head out.

Episode XLIX - Back to Back

The Rigs return in their attempt to get back on a regular recording schedule. We kick things off with breaking down the...Women's tournament? After clearing up Ric's confusion about home games in the women's tourney, we get into the men's tournament. Pete watched a few of the games, Dean was too busy on an absurd Vegas rampage to appreciate much of the action, and Ric's already hearing Boss music for Purdue's tournament run. We finally grind through to the end, lift up Ric's spirits, give out some winners for Shohei, and get the gears turning for baseball season.

Episode XLVIII - MARCH MADNESS

The Rigs return thanks to March Madness bringing family together. We provide a brief state of the union before diving into the nation's favorite tournament. We breakdown each region, attempt to keep the Purdue discussion to the Midwest region, troubleshoot Pete's internet, and review Pete's Vegas ban appeal. Finally, we close out with some motivational speaking from Rig to Rig before signing off. Let's hope the next sound you hear from us isn't the Titanic theme.

Episode XLVII - SUPER BOWL SUNDAY VOL. II

The Rigs return with a special Super Bowl episode. We break down the game, Ric catches some extra Zzzz's while recording, and the Rigs lament this being the final football episode of the season. Finally, after a few minutes of semi-serious discussion, we wake up Ric and get into some hipfire picks...hopefully some of them hit. We wrap up with some post-show brainstorming for pod life after football season.

Episode XLVI - Ric's Monologue

The Rigs return after a wild Conference Championship weekend. We recap each conference's championship game, trying to figure out where the Ravens go from here, and if the Lions' coaching cost them a Super Bowl trip. Ric then delivers his overcooked dumb take while Dean & Pete try to wrangle some sense into him. We quickly hit college basketball because we always find a way to work the Patriots and Purdue into the pod before providing an update on the Chicago situation. No picks this week while the boys enter the lab to figure out how we're getting to retirement after the Super Bowl.

Episode XLV - For Jerry

The Rigs return after forgetting our WiFi password again. After conducting the pre-show meeting during the first segment, we dive into the NFL playoffs. Ric is falling asleep watching the Ravens, Pete wants people fired, and Dean is perplexed about people not rooting for Detroit. We then cover the Jim Harbaugh hire to appease the large Charger fanbase. Finally, we have to cover some unfortunate sports events that have taken place recently in one of our favorite cities. We critique the city, offer opportunities for improvement, and express our support for getting this particular city back on track. We close out with picks and a painful record update.

Episode XLIV - I'm Thankful

The Rigs return and you're going to want to be sitting down for this one...because it's a long one. It's not Thanksgiving but Ric is very thankful for what his Patriots have given him over the years and he shares those sentiments with us. Meanwhile, Pete celebrates a Michigan championship while taking multiple station breaks for Dean to edit later. We then cover the looming changes in college football as Nick Saban steps down, eventually making our way through some Yankees discussions to the NFL playoffs and a weather report from Ric. We close out with Pete's third and final timeout leading us into picks and shoutouts.

Episode XLIII - Warning, Explicit Content

The Rigs return after the holiday break and we're fired up. We start off the year by announcing some firings at Big Rig HQ before a special 2 on 1 handi-cap match as Dean tries to convince Ric & Pete that the Rose Bowl was not a great game. We then cover the almost-disastrous end to the Sugar Bowl for Washington before previewing the National Championship. We pivot to the NFL, previewing the headline games for the weekend, including Jets-Patriots and having a healthy discussion about our sympathy for Philadelphia fans. Pete then convinces us to do an NBA segment where we discuss the Celtics, LeBron, and a handful of teams that you probably have never heard of or don't care about. We close out with picks and unfortunately do not avoid Purdue basketball discussion. Happy New Year.

Episode XLII - Spreading Christmas cheer

The Rigs return with another weekly episode to stick under the Christmas tree. In an attempt to learn from last year's mistake, we break down the College Football Playoff semifinals, lay down our predictions, and define the standards for being a "winning coach". Pete and Ric fight and then bond over a future parade on 5th ave, Dean recaps the Purdue squad's regular season predictions, and then we close out with some shoutouts before the Christmas holiday.
