    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this episode of Slip The Jab, we recap UFC Freedom 250: Topuria vs. Gaethje and break down Justin Gaethje’s fourth-round victory over Ilia Topuria to become the new UFC champion. We discuss what may have been the single greatest walkout in UFC history, why Gaethje’s stock has never been higher, and why Lino thinks he should start shooting his shot with one of the Trump daughters. In our Not So Rapid Recap, we cover Ciryl Gane stopping Alex Pereira and the controversy surrounding Poatan’s claims of illegal shots to the back of the head, his pursuit of legal action, and whether this is ultimately a bad look for him. We discuss Sean O’Malley’s walkout salute KO win over Zahabi, Josh Hokit’s upset over Derrick Lewis and the controversial post-fight speech that instantly made him a household name, Mauricio Ruffy destroying Michael Chandler and Chandler officially falling out of the rankings for the first time in his UFC career, Ref Herzog doing Bo Nickal a favor by standing the fight up against Kyle Daukaus, and Diego Lopes punishing Steve Garcia after Garcia made the mistake of standing and trading with him. We also run through the massive bonus payouts handed out at UFC Freedom 250, debate whether the event was better than Noche at the Sphere, discuss Tyson Fury’s odd walkout, react to Daniel Cormier denying allegations that he posted an Eric Trump DM about rigged fights, discuss Conor McGregor’s interview with Max Holloway, and close the show with our Post-Fight “Songs” of the Week.

    Episode 241: Slip-a-palooza 2026

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this episode of Slip The Jab, we kick things off by going over our custom Slip-a-palooza 2026 food and cocktail menu before diving straight into the madness. We talk the Dan Hooker gay allegations, react to the Sean Strickland post-fight presser, and explain why Rousey vs. Carano is far from a "superfight." We also give our thoughts on the Bad Bunny Super Bowl halftime show, argue over the best burial method, and Lino goes on a rant about Krispy Kreme being glazed and overpriced.  Things take an emotional turn toward the end during the #EricChallenge, when Ian shares a never-before-heard story about the day his dad passed, and we close the show with one of the most fitting Post-Fight Songs of the Week of all time.

    Episode 240: UFC 325 Volkanovski vs. Lopes 2 Recap • Fight Nerd Drama • Jarrell "Price Toupee" Miller • Don Lemon Arrested After Anti-ICE Protest • 2026 Slip-a-palooza Preview

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this episode of Slip The Jab, we kick things off with a debate over Ian’s XL hoodie Christmas gift, who really cuts more weight—Lino or Alex Pereira—and Lino admitting he’s still haunted by the time he called Ian a scumbag on the show. Next, we dive into UFC 325, and recap Alexander Volkanovski’s dominant unanimous decision win over Diego Lopes. We discuss Volk tying José Aldo for most title defenses at eight, what should be next for the division, why Lopes vs. Yair needs to happen, and whether Volk should retire if he wins one more. In our Not So Rapid Recap, we cover Benoit Saint Denis’ TKO win and his push for the BMF belt, Mauricio Ruffy calling out Conor McGregor, the fight-nerd drama going on, and what the UFC should do next with Tai Tuivasa after his loss to Tallison Teixeira. We also run through the bonuses and give props to Paramount for finally improving the viewing experience, and point out the minor issues they still need to fix. In Current Events, we react to Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller going viral after getting his toupee punched off during his boxing match, Nick Diaz saying he's coming back for a title run after his Mexico rehab stint, and what White House security is realistically going to look like for the upcoming White House card. We also discuss Don Lemon getting arrested after the anti-ICE protest, which leads to Lino going on a rant about people constantly needing to protest something. We wrap things up with a Slip-a-palooza preview and menu rundown, movie recommendations and reviews including Bogonia and Corey Feldman vs. The World, before closing the show with our Post-Fight Songs of the Week—sending us down a rabbit hole on the best female vocalists, Ian outing himself as a Lizzo fan, and Lino realizing he hates new rap but is starting to love new country.

    Episode 239: The Burgh Blizzard • Paramount+ Growing Pains • UFC 324 Gaethje vs. Pimblett Recap • UFC 325: Volkanovski vs. Lopes 2 Preview • Money Can't Buy Class

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this episode of Slip The Jab, we’re coming to you live from the frozen tundra better known as the Burgh, where Lino questions—once again—why any sane person chooses to live somewhere this cold. We recap the snowstorm before diving into what we’re calling “The Paramount+ Growing Pains.” We talk about the missing walkouts and corner advice, Dana White’s response to ads during fights, and why the Paramount+ app still needs serious work. We recap UFC 324: Gaethje vs. Pimblett, break down Justin Gaethje’s decision win over Paddy, explain why this fight could do for the Paramount era what Griffin vs. Bonnar did for Spike TV, and give our Not So Rapid Recap, where we go over the other highlight fights of the event. Ian explains why it’s important for fighters to get more time to speak during post-fight interviews, then shares a personal story about when he didn’t get to say any last words when his brother passed—a moment that still stays with him. We give our Slip Picks and Ianalysis for UFC 325: Volkanovski vs. Lopes 2, debate whether Volk’s age is a real concern, and run through our Sleepers & Bangers, including Fiziev vs. Ruffy, Hooker vs. Benoit Saint-Denis, and Tai Tuivasa vs. Tallison Teixeira. Lino thinks Ian secretly believes he needs to lose weight after seeing the size of the hoodie he gave him for Christmas, and goes over the radical life changes he’s planning to make after Slip-a-palooza. We take a trip to “Lino’s World,” where Lino goes on a rant about Airbnbs that don’t have TVs in their bedrooms, an altercation he had while boarding his recent flight, why he hates the DINK movement, why he doesn’t get along with rich white people, give our review of The Smashing Machine starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and close with the Post-Fight Song of the Week.

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this Slipmas Special episode of Slip The Jab, we kick things off with a homemade eggnog mixology cocktail build, then recap our Thanksgiving holiday. We see where Ian’s at with getting ready for Christmas and end up finding out that his swimming pool is still open and his Halloween decorations are still out. We unwrap UFC 323: Dvalishvili vs. Yan 2, and Lino is upset at the fans for shitting on Merab after being such an active, dominant champion. We give our first reactions to recently made matchups like Gaethje vs. Pimblett and Volkanovski vs. Lopes 2, and how they prove the UFC rankings don’t mean anything. We celebrate the end of ESPN+ PPV’s as we know them, react to the Khabib Nurmagomedov NFT scam drama, and Conor McGregor traveling to Tijuana, Mexico, to undergo Ibogaine treatment at AMBIO. Before wrapping up, we exchange our yearly Slipmas and birthday-buddy gifts, and close the show with our traditional Slipmas Post-Fight Song of the Week.

    Episode 237: Thanksgiving Special • UFC 322 Makhachev vs. Della Maddalena Recap • Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua Official • Dillion Danis MSG Brawl • AI Jesus

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this Thanksgiving Special episode of Slip The Jab, we kick things off by celebrating our 6-year podcast anniversary and officially hitting 250 episodes of STJ. We recap UFC 322: Della Maddalena vs. Makhachev, why we were disappointed to see JDM break mentally, and react to Ilia Topuria tweeting that JDM is an embarrassing champion and that he would easily KO Islam. We debate which matchup we want to see next for Islam, and whether Islam is actually better than Khabib? Lino goes on a Double Champ Rant, and we hit a Not-So-Rapid Recap of Valentina Shevchenko defeating Zhang Weili, as well as the rest of the highlights and bonuses winner of the event. We talk about whether Tracy Cortez is all marketing, if she’s headed to OnlyFans, and why it’s a shame, because if she had Weili-level skill, she’d be the biggest female superstar in the history of the sport. In Current Events, we cover Dillon Danis being officially banned from the UFC after the MSG brawl, Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua being a “done deal” for Netflix on December 19th, whether the fight’s gonna be fixed, and how churches are now using AI and “chatbot Jesus.” Ian reads his traditional Thanksgiving poem, we give our movie & show recommendations to watch over Thanksgiving weekend, and end with our Post-Fight Song of the Week.

    💬 Got thoughts? Hit us up by clicking this link and give us your take! On this episode of Slip The Jab, we kick things off with a Halloween recap — including how Ian’s Katy Perry costume was received and why Lino thinks it was the creepiest costume Ian’s ever worn. Lino gets the first of many things off his chest when he vents about Uber Eats and Instacart drivers who smoke in their cars before deliveries, and we talk about Tom Aspinall claiming that he still can’t see. We give our Slip Picks and Ianalysis for UFC 322: Jack Della Maddalena vs. Islam Makhachev and highlight our Sleepers & Bangers. We also react to Ronda Rousey bashing Joe Rogan and Khabib Nurmagomedov, Jake Paul vs. Tank Davis being canceled, break down the latest UFC betting scandal, and Lino’s issue with people who use the excuse that eating healthy is “too expensive.” We close with our Post-Fight Song of the Week — and Lino getting fired up at Joe Rogan for saying he’s starting to like AI music more than music made by humans.
