Justin and Dan open the show talking about their psychotic fantasy baseball league. The actual sports conversation starts at 15:07, as the guys talk about Auburn basketball’s SEC/ACC Challenge matchup at Duke. They look at what the game means for the program and what a showdown between two very different rosters might look like in December.
Then they switch over to football, where Eric Winters’ commitment leads off a conversation about the hot summer for recruiting. They talk about the local flavor of the top of the class, how Auburn is taking advantage of the changes at Alabama and why the rebuild is more than just talent acquisition.
The episode ends with Justin wanting to talk about peanuts and Painter putting out one of his best closing questions to date.

The guys open the show by going through some listener feedback on the latest Auburn football trivia episode. Then they look at how the Tigers took home a national title in track and field and nearly grabbed another before looking at how the athletic program did from top to bottom in 2023-24.
They also dissect the big basketball news of Dan Hurley turning down the Lakers — which means that, yes, Bruce Pearl will not be the next head coach at UConn. There’s also a discussion of Auburn and Alabama’s basketball rosters for next season, how much respect the rivalry should get on the hardwood and the confidence levels coming out of both camps.
Towards the end of the episode, the guys talk about Jabari Smith coming back to Lee County for his youth basketball camp and his pitch to Auburn’s top recruits. Dan also starts casting his new FX original miniseries “JetGate.”
