Hello! It's the podcast that has ALL the relevant hockey stats. Today, Katie and the Casualties react to good friend Charlotte Wilder debunking the notion that Aaron Rodgers' wife is an AI Chatbot, Mike McDaniel taking a job with the Chargers as Offensive Coordinator, BOBROVSKY throwing hands, an Arizona high schooler scoring 100 points in a single basketball game, the crazy-five-years-ago story of Michele Tafoya running for Senate in Minnesota, and the irresistible offer that made AJ McCarron drop his bid for office in Alabama. Then, comedian Jay Jurden [33:52] comes out swinging, discussing his comedy special "Yes Ma'am" on Hulu, Indiana's national championship, Fernando Mendoza likely dropping the first F-Bomb of his life, Carson Beck losing the game two years after graduating and Jay's problem with the transfer portal, Curt Cignetti's wardrobe and watching him crack a rare smile, Lane Kiffin and Jay's viewpoint as an LSU grad, Heated Rivalry and the global phenomenon, hockey stretches, hockey butts, and a look at the viewership of both male-male intimacy and hockey fights on video, the accuracies and inaccuracies in the bedroom on the show, the importance of confronting even the most unintentional homophobia in the show's discourse to make it accessible for both fan bases, what the show means to closeted gay men across all sports, the importance of the show being true to its core as a romance novel, Gary Bettman, the boy aquarium, and the evolving image of masculinity in sports, the future for the Heated Rivalry cast, hockey at the Winter Games, fashion choices across all countries and Jay's love of Ralph Lauren, Mariah Carey performing at the Opening Ceremonies, Derek Jeter, Butterfly, and the return of JNCOs, a question from a listener about the most welcoming American sporting event, and how David Beckham's lower back tattoo explains the latest drama in his life. And the team wraps with a look at Isabella's picks for this weekend in the NFL Playoffs.
