Its Gettin’ Hot in Here… not really… Summer may be winding down, but the hot takes are just heating up (AI wrote that line). Gerber, Danko and Chuck return for another monthly show to wave goodbye to August and reluctantly acknowledge that fall is lurking around the corner like DeShaun Watson threatening to be healthy (also AI!). The Guys throw back to their old format and start the 10 at home with a deep dive into the Guardians’ roller coaster summer– the ups, downs, more downs and then some hope in the Wild Card race. The Guys look back at impressive players for the season and what needs to happen to keep that last glimmer of wild card hope gleaming. For their second segment (25:37), the Guys go Into Purgatory to preview what promises to be a potentially very long Browns 2025 season. They break down the QB situation (spoiler: it’s complicated) and make their bold predictions for a season that kicks offagainst the Bengals. Will 40-year-old Joe Flacco lead this team to glory, or are we in for another winter of discontent? (AI again!) The Guys search for the team strength and try to find a hopeful tone while searching for the Browns’first win of the season. The Guys close the show heading Off the Field (49:38), talking television, music, movies and more. The Guys start with their look at season 4 of The Bear (spoilers coming) and the best aspects of another strong season. The Guys then go All Ears and talk Zach Bryan’s summer of new music before going for a Quick Run in the Cinema with the breaking news of the green light for aKnight Rider Movie. The Guys end the night talking big Taylor Swift summer news and the new most successful person from Cleveland rankings. Stick around after the closing music (1:21:01) for outtakes, bloopers and more NFL predictions.
Errors:
Chuck said Guardians Manager SteveVogt’s record as manager was 142-19. That’s not right. It was 142-119. Chuck was only 100 losses off.
Gerber said the Bear’s 3rd season came out this summer, it was actually the 4th. Gerber was only a whole season off.
Danko did fine.
