It's whiskey talk at the top of the show as Ro celebrates Whiskey Wednesday and fills us in on the best new trends. We also talk about New York Yankee Steakhouse, our kids athletic accomplishments coming into the week and memories of Scoop and Roman's band. And as we head on down to Greentree, Toast has to take up for setting Twitter on fire with some comments about how the Miami administration failed to support Mario in the Lucas transfer controversy.

Congrats are due to Scoop's Ohio State for winning the National Championship, and how spending money in the portal can be largely beneficial if it's spent in the right place. That leads us into a debate over portal players versus developed players and how Toast wants more homegrown talent and fewer hired guns. And we won't have to face Al Golden's defense in Week 1 of 2025 as he moves on from Notre Dame.

Roman also sets the line at +3 favorable calls that lean toward the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. And the CBS way-too-early Top 25 has Miami at #3, and while Toast thinks it's insane, Roman actually likes it. Scoop also believes that Miami's defense is vastly improved and the offense, with Carson Beck, did not take as big a step back as anticipated. All that said, Ro needs to make sure these defensive backs and linebackers ultimately need to be cover guys. Plus Mario getting snubbed from the list of the Top 25 coaches going into the 2025 season is deserved according to Roman.

The audio of the week is the woman who drove the golf cart into the wall at the National Championship game. And Five Questions includes things we'll never do again, what fast food is actually the best quality, colognes we would recommend, the best advertisement line we've ever heard and the most childish things we've bought with our adult money.
