#362: The Worst Thing Judy Garland Ever Did
We turned in our Super Famous Annual High School Hockey Preview right at deadline. Come for the matchups, stay for the facts. We never said they were fun. Mentioned: Bock Fest, arson, Jesse James, white flight, Egypt, CEO payouts, Edina notable residents, and what the word Mahtomedhi means in Dakota. We are all shocked to our core but choosing to believe it. Also another Top 6 and the return of our old friend audio problems near the end. We are so back.

#360: Chopped Liver
Happy New Year! Jon and CF are back, the Chopped Liver edition of the podcast, to talk about the things that Brandon and Stu won't talk about. Chiefly:
The NHL has a referee problem on their hands, and they're not doing anything about itThe Vikings are starting the wrong disaster at quarterbackWe knew the Twins offseason was going to be bad, but I don't think we understood just how bad
If you want to know what kind of episode this was: this started with 15 minutes of tangents before we ever talked about anything related to sports.

#359: Young Swarming D
The whole gang is back as Jon ranks his most hopeless local teams in order. Was this a lazy way to generate content or a strategic move from Brox to get to brag on the Wolves for once? Yes and yes.

#358: BURGER DIVE
The Wolves are amazing, the Vikings are a model of consistency, Chicken is angry, Stu is drunk. Two things that make no sense combined with two that do, so at the end of the day we're back to even and all is right in the world. Burger Dive.

Customer Reviews
Like talking sports with your dad's smart friends
Title says it all. They're the best.
Great show
MN sports talk with an occasional random Rudy Perpich joke thrown in
This is my favorite podcast
It is. This is my favorite. Is the audio great?Not always. But do they bash Rick Spielman into the friggin’ ground?
The guys started The Sportive, a Minnesota-sports themed show, about the time I moved out of state for the first time. I wasn’t able to sit around with my friends debating whether Jason Bartlett was going to fail as a super-utility player. But listening to these guys felt like the next best thing.
I don’t know if someone outside Minnesota would understand much of it, but for those that do it’s a funny and interesting conversation that touches on sports, #dadtalk, and Clarence’s quest for tenure at St. Olaf.
