For the first time since October, Elijah comes onto the podcast with the result of Manchester City losing, and Manchester United winning! How the turn tables. First we do the NCAAW rankings breakdown, then get into the WORST WEEKEND OF ELIJAH'S LIFE. Just kidding, it's not the end world, We've been talking about this for months now, but the rest of the soccer world lost its mind. We break down the rest of the weekend's games and get into this weeks upcoming games. We got some Champions League to talk about, City winning first leg 5-0 and United getting set to take on Athletico on Wednesday. We break down some soccer news before getting into the Cause of Death from last week. We sucked. 2-2 on the year now. In "What's on Your Mind" Dom goes to Twitter to talk about Goran Dragic going to the Nets, while Elijah reviews the Olympics as they come to a close. Team Schuster for life!
STUFF IS BACK!!! And are we an ASMR podcast now? Yes we are. We do some life updates as Chief Cj gets a new job and Elijah cleans his room. Two very important things. Then it's STAR WARS TIME! We talk some Star Wars before going into a full episode break down of the Book of Boba Fett (spoiler warning from 20:30 on)
We got NHL power rankings to start, Cj's turn. We do a Super Bowl recap, gg's to the Rams, before getting into the stories that are going to plague the offseason, including and MOST IMPORTANTLY, the Packers. Cj goes on a classic Manfred rant as baseball is still in a lockout. We finish up with some Olympic talk!
Happy Valentine's Day! Dom starts off with his NCAAW rankings, as he does just okay on them, not his best showing. We finally have some Premier League games to break down and check our standings against each other. Man United is crashing and burning, while Man City continues to hold their lead at the top of the table. We got some soccer news to cover before going over our predictions for this weekend's games and the upcoming Champions League games. We get another massive W in Cause of Death, now 2-1 on the season. We find a new soccer team to root for before getting into what's on our mind. Elijah goes on a rant about how there's not enough time in the day and there's too much to watch and video games to play. Meanwhile, Dom checks Twitter.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But more importantly, we may have the first ever perfect NHL power rankings guessed correctly (looking eyes emoji). Have to tune in to find out. Anyway, in the past two weeks Tom Brady retired and at the same time the Giants may be racist, and those two things may or may not be related. We discuss the upcoming Super Bowl game, make our picks and go over some bets that Cj made. We finish up talking about Cj's birthday and the ultimate snack list for the Super Bowl.
Elijah's turn to do the NCAAW rankings. Let's just say his Vols let him down this time. But he soon he gets his revenge on Dom was we both (kinda) make fun of Manchester United for losing in the FA Cup. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Anyway. City moves on because why wouldn't they. We go over some other soccer news from around the world and FINALLY get to pick some Premier League games after a long hiatus. In the "What's on Your Mind" segment we both go down a dark deep whole of being an adult and how lame it is. Dom has to deal with his car being hit, Elijah has to shovel for his neighbors and we both have to deal with insurance. We finish with Cause of Death after failing miserably last week, but we promise that's the last time that ever happens.
The podcast starts in a dark place with some very depressing content. But we rally with some NCAAW rankings, Dom gets close but no cigar. We break down some transfer news as it happens live but nothing really major happens for our teams. We go over some international results as the USMNT loses to Canada and beats El Salvador. That conversation leads us to eventually talking about elementary school choir and eventually listening to elementary school choirs on YouTube. So yeah. That happened. Dom goes 1-0 in the first week of Cause of Death and Elijah joins in on the fun for week 2. Finally as all good podcasts do, we end with Nicki Minaj.
In this episode elijah suffers through talking about the Packer NFC divisional round loss, some Aaron Rodgers speculation and some betting woes. But luckily he has his Tennessee Volunteers to comfort him, kinda.
After a week off we start with women's college basketball rankings and Elijah almost has our first perfect rankings. We go over Kansas State's Ayoka Lee scoring a women's college basketball record 61 points in their win over Oklahoma. We get into the past two weeks of Primer League games, where Dom starts to separate from Elijah, now five points up. City gets a big win over Chelsea before tying Southampton, losing Elijah lots of money. United wins their games as they get back into the top 4, but Dom still doesn't sing for us. As we get ready for another international break, we cover some soccer news and surprise, surprise, it's a snooze fest. Dom debuts his new segment, "Cause of Death" as he makes a bet on the podcast that could ultimately lead to his death. We finish up by get mad at celebrities and go over some Apex news AND give each other some compliments on National Compliment Day!
Elijah is nervous to start the podcast. After one week of not having to worry about the Packers, now is the time to freak out. But also stay cool. We deal with some technical problems, but not before Elijah sets the record best guesses for the NHL power rankings. We cover last weeks SUPER Wild Card weekend which saw some serious blowouts, and Elijah surviving the Bills game. Predictions are made for the divisional round before we spiral into our usual nonsense that's not really nonsense because we might be on to something.
