Mr. Irrelevant Podcast v2.0 Mr. Irrelevant Podcast v2.0

By actual, honest-to-god request, Jamie and Matt are back to talk about the Washington football team formerly known as the Washington Football Team. There's a lot of chatter in this one about the actual team and what it means to have Dan Snyder gone and so on, but the highlight is definitely Matt having a brainfart that makes him look catastrophically dumb. If you like that sort of thing--and let's be honest, who doesn't!--this is the episode for you.

Jamie and Matt talk about the viral big hat, the viral Sean Taylor mannequin, the less-than-viral Commanders win over the Falcons, and the usual assortment of other stuff. It's a much more fun episode than I'm making it sound. I'm sorry.

Jamie and Matt talk about Taylor Heinicke's moxie at exhaustive length. Truly, you have never heard the word "moxie" used so many times in a non-ironic (or at least semi-non-ironic) way. Moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie moxie. Then they talk about some TV and music and other stuff, but not very long and not with any spoilers. Moxie! 

With the news we've all been waiting for hovering out there, Matt and Jamie reconvene despite promising not to, and then the conversation mainly consists of Matt complaining about Scott Turner. It'll probably be really good if you like that sort of thing.

Jamie and Matt use the last-second win over the hapless Colts as a springboard for catching up on the hapless Commanders' season so far. This time around, Jamie is the bright side and Matt is hammering one frustrated point repeatedly. Around 36:50 or so, talk turns to House Of The Dragon, Andor, Werewolf By Night, and dadrock concerts. No spoilers for anything besides the Smashing Pumpkins' truly dreadful setlist. See you again at some point in the future that is undefined except that it will NOT be next week, win or lose.

Jamie and Matt start off by discussing the Commanders' loss to the Lions for awhile--the positive signs, the causes for concern, the abject lack of defense--and wind up talking for a surprisingly long time about a traditional North Carolina pig pickin. In the end, there's some brief conversation about the upcoming Andor series, culminating in an explanation of why yesterday's game was almost exactly identical to the Disney+ Obi-Wan series. So pretty much the usual, then.
