#37 - The Boys Are Back In Town

It's been a while, but the guys are back and funnier than ever! They start off by talking about how life has been since the last time they've completed a show, while sharing their vacations they've all went on over the last few months. Jeff shares a funny story about his Carnival Cruise, right as ongoing concerns rose regarding the cruise named 'Carnival Freedom' that was docked in May due to flames erupting from the smokestack. Tanner and Matt share their fears of the ocean, while Jeff tries to bring their minds at ease.
The world has changed so much since the last the guys' spoke, so they continue by talking about inflation and how gas prices have exceeded $5/gallon as we approach the summer months. Inflation isn't the only issues in the world today, as we continue to see a new mass shooter on the news every week. This past week, a 21-year old by the name of Robert E. Crimo III went to the rooftop of a building and began firing upon individuals at an Independence Day parade in Highland Park, approximately 25 miles north of Chicago, killing 7 people and wounding almost 50. Tanner breaks down how everything happened, alongside the negligence of both the parents and law enforcement throughout the past few years. With many people demanding for new gun laws, this recent shooting only amplifies the need for gun reform, or at least further discussion.
Outside of the negativity of the world, the guys discuss what's been going on in sports, but more specifically the UFC and its recent UFC 276 Pay Per View event. Tanner and Matt breakdown each of the fights from the card and give their insight into what happened and what's to come. Sean O'Malley's fight ended quickly due to an accidental eye poke, Max Holloway left the octagon with a loss & two badly damaged eyes, and the champion Isreal Adensanya put on yet another boring performance. Was the eye poke blown out of proportion? Could Pedro Munhoz of embellished the eye poke in an attempt to avoid a loss? Is this the last we'll see of Holloway competing for the belt? Is there a new champion in the Featherweight division that's here to stay? After Israel's Undertaker walkout was more talked about than his fight, what's next for the Middleweight Champion? Find out about this, and much more, on episode #37 of The 412 Podcast!

#39 - I Don’t Want No Stray Milk

The guys share what’s being going on in their lives the last couple weeks before diving into the latest from the MLB Trade Deadline. Matt shares a story of how two individuals were able to steal his wallet from him, amongst other important things, at a Planet Fitness. Because of this, he wasn’t able to see some of the notable moves that took place, like Juan Soto & Josh Bell to the Padres, Austin Riley signing a huge extension with the Braves, the Dodgers bringing in a struggling Joey Gallo, lack of moves in New York, or even a surprising move to get rid of an ace in Milwaukee.
The guys move on to the NFL and discuss all the buzz surrounding teams and their camps. A variety of videos have gone viral of QBs and their respective wide receivers, some doing a little extra in order to salvage that viral bit. The guys dive into the camps of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Los Angelas Rams, and Miami Dolphins. This leads to Matt asking about all the different legal issues surrounding the Dolphins organization over the last few years that have recently been brought to light. Tanner elaborates on the tampering done with both Tom Brady and Sean Payton, as well as the story involving Brian Flores and whether he was informed to tank games in the 2019 NFL season. After only losing a first round draft pick, and being hit with a $1.5 million fine, is that enough to deter this from happening again in the future?
Alongside this, Matt, Jeff & Tanner discuss the legal situation regarding Deshaun Watson, the Cleveland Browns, and the National Football League. Watson was given a 6-game suspension by a judge on Monday, but this was appealed by the NFL two days later. We now await to hear the next moves as the NFL is moving towards indefinitely suspending him from the league. What could this mean for the QB that appears to be locked in long term with the Browns franchise?
Outside of sports, the team discusses Nancy Pelosi visiting Taiwan, China and Russia creating their own currency, Alex Jones going to trial for his Sandy Hook comments, best streaming services, upcoming Marvel and DC films, VR porn, AI intelligence, and a few wild stories of their own. Tune in for a roller coaster on this episode of The 412 Podcast!
