    The Grand Finale: Stugotz Joins from Radio Row in Vegas, Bye to Belichick? + Pro Bowl Problems & Lewis Hamilton | Golic & Smetty

    SPOILER ALERT: All good things must come to an end (cliché I know). Golic & Smetty are coming to you from Radio Row in Las Vegas for Super Week to bring you this week’s final episode. Okay, not just this week’s final episode, but the show’s final episode. It wouldn’t be a grand finale if we didn’t include our dear friend of the pod, Stugotz. Jess and Mike share their favorite moments from the show and discuss the good and bad of Super Bowl media week. Stugotz shares what makes the celebration of football special before Golic asks him how he attempts to make interviews different when the same person has been on 50 other sets that day. Pro tip: Don’t talk about football. The conversation prompts stories of awkward interviews, Stu makes his pick for the Super Bowl winner and the trio discusses iconic big game QBs. Mike and Jess talk about the ever-changing coaching cycle, including one major question: is Bill Belichick done? They hypothesize where he could end up if it’s not on the sidelines before moving on to the college coach migration and the major changes to the Pro Bowl. They end today with the Lewis Hamilton team change and updates on F1. Mike and Jess say their good-byes before riding off into the sunset. Thank you to everyone who supported our show. And don't worry...you can still catch us on GoJo and Golic and The Dan Le Batard Show! So really, it's not goodbye, it's see ya later.  Follow Mike and Jess on Twitter!
