    All Caught Up: The Super Bowl and Beyond, with C-Nell

    Napiera recaps the Super Bowl with C-Nell. Drake Maye dropped the ball in the worst way, Bad Bunny stole the show in the best way. And in all ways, they look to the future, be it the NFL or the NBA… Or even The Catch Up itself, as Napiera announces the season, perhaps series finale, of this version of the podcast.   And with that… Peace! Host: Napiera Groves-Boykin Guest: Cornell “C-Nell” Hope  Episode: 2e18 (finale)

    Defense Rises! Coaches Fall! The Divisionals, with C-Nell

    Defense ruled a day filled with shaky quarterback moments and big coaching questions. Was Pats Texans great defense or just offensive chaos? Is CJ Stroud just young? And.... Is Josh Allen running out of time in Buffalo? Coaching still matters in LA, heart in Chicago, and the NFL coaching carousel gets messy all over the place. Plus, Conference Championship picks 🏈 Host: Napiera Groves-Boykin Guest: C-Nell Episode: 2e16

    A WILD Wild Card Weekend. Plus, Bemoaning the Bengals with C-Nell.

    Nape breaks down a WILD Wild Card weekend—highlighting Caleb Williams’ huge comeback, debating boring playoff matchups, and arguing over who’s actually a “problem” (Drake May vs the Patriots defense) with her cous-o, C-Nell. Then, the usual full Bengals meltdown about cheap-a$$ ownership refusing to fire Zac Taylor, before closing with divisional-round picks and coaching carousel speculation.  Host: Napiera Groves-Boykin Guest: Cousin Nell Episode: 2e15

    RIP Ratbirds! Plus NFL Playoff Picture with Pastor Nell!

    Pastor Nell opens the ep — givin “all due disrespect” to the Baltimore Ravens, who go out in the most Ravens way possible: a missed last-second field goal in Pittsburgh. Our condolences! 😂 From there, Nape and Nell talk reckless about the Ratbirds being a permanent choking hazard, debate whether Lamar gets any grace, then roll into wild card weekend picks (Bills/Jags, Rams/Panthers, Bears/Packers, Pats/Chargers, Texans/Steelers, Eagles/Niners).   More Bengals misery — these cheap ass mf’s are “running it back” with ZT (poverty franchise alert!!!). Finally, Lakers & Knicks, plus Pluribus & Emily in Paris. Host: Napiera Groves-Boykin Guest: C-Nell Episode: 2e14

    Bengals COOKED. NBA’s LIT. We BACK!

    A LOT to catch up on! Zack’s Whack. Season’s Cooked. Joe’s Furrowed. But Napiera survived her B-Day, and we back! Bengals dominated Turkey Day, but it’s been all downhill since — and with the recent goose egg, the season is officially cooked. Joe’s furrowed, but whack Taylor be wanting to… Keep playing him? Will someone show this clown the door?  But Nape’s Knicks and Nell’s Lakes are alive and well. The NBA Cup is upon us, and Napiera is ready.

    Toe Burrow Back & F*** the Pilgrims with C-Nell

    Joe Burrow refuses to ride the bench, Cincinnati’s playoff odds are microscopic — but present — and Napiera and Cornell repare for the worst as the Bengals travel to Baltimore. Again.
