Auburn alum who attended 2010-2014; the most spoiled class in Auburn history. Perhaps that experience permanently inflated my Auburn expectations, but what I respect most about Justin and Dan’s thoughts is the level-headedness. I am still in the irrationally confident “we have fringe-playoff potential” mode that I always find myself in around mid-August, and dialing up Justin and Dan’s reasonable, informed takes about 20% sets me up for merely mild disappointment, rather than year-ruining despair. Don’t let that imply they are negative, though. It is always a pleasant listen that oozes with enthusiasm; a fun listen as well as an educational one. Between this podcast and the glorious release of College Football 25, I haven’t known the Auburn roster better. A must-listen for every Auburn fan not just for the sports talk, but for the movie takes.
A disclaimer: I have a podcast (embarrassing, I know) about movies that has Auburn talk sprinkled in every now and then. One could say my show is the philosophical mirror of The Observer. But here’s the thing: Dan and Justin know more about the specifics of movies than I know about the specifics of Auburn athletics. Every listen is a humbling one. Their cinematic acumen keeps me grounded and wanting to improve my show #grindset. Keep up the good work and War Eagle.
