01:18:40|Summer sabbatical OVER. Chat mode ENGAGED. On the docket: the Vikings, adopting a temporary NFL team (horse sound), losing our cool over the loser Twins, shrug emoji about the Gophers and then some youth sports talk to bring us home. Plus a classic Jon post-furious rant. We are so back.#364: Buying OJ a Pair of Gloves
01:22:18|Us OG Wolves guys chest-bump about our squad, piss & moan about Jamal Murray being a baby, and welcome the bandwagon fans with open arms like the mensches we are and have always been. Then first thoughts about the JJ McCarthy pick, and later a quick chat on traveling baseball coaches. Jon dropped off at one point, Stu briefly forgot how to construct a sentence, and we yet again had technical difficulties. We are back.363. #363: Just Because It's Right, Doesn't Make It Interesting

All the big topics!#362: The Worst Thing Judy Garland Ever Did

Mentioned: Bock Fest, arson, Jesse James, white flight, Egypt, CEO payouts, Edina notable residents, and what the word Mahtomedhi means in Dakota. We are all shocked to our core but choosing to believe it. Also another Top 6 and the return of our old friend audio problems near the end. We are so back.#361: Raw-Dogging Reality

53:11||Ep. 360Happy New Year! Jon and CF are back, the Chopped Liver edition of the podcast, to talk about the things that Brandon and Stu won't talk about. Chiefly:The NHL has a referee problem on their hands, and they're not doing anything about itThe Vikings are starting the wrong disaster at quarterbackWe knew the Twins offseason was going to be bad, but I don't think we understood just how badIf you want to know what kind of episode this was: this started with 15 minutes of tangents before we ever talked about anything related to sports.#359: Young Swarming D
59:39|The whole gang is back as Jon ranks his most hopeless local teams in order. Was this a lazy way to generate content or a strategic move from Brox to get to brag on the Wolves for once? Yes and yes.#358: BURGER DIVE
01:26:49|The Wolves are amazing, the Vikings are a model of consistency, Chicken is angry, Stu is drunk. Two things that make no sense combined with two that do, so at the end of the day we're back to even and all is right in the world. Burger Dive.
