Hello! It's the podcast that's still not blaming the electromagnetic fields in San Francisco, but it's getting close. Today, Katie and the Casualties announce the latest merch sale, examine the proliferation of the "Aaron Rodgers' Wife is an AI Chatbot" conspiracy, and take a look at the somewhat-more-feasible-now scenario of Team USA winning the World Cup. Then, the team breaks down an incredible weekend in the NFL Playoffs with two all-time classics, including the Bears dropping a heartbreaker after Caleb Williams' legendary throw to end regulation, Isabella taking blame for the loss, Matthew Stafford defeating the weather, Microplane losing sponsorship of Cheese Grater Guy to Miller Lite, the Payts moving on (!), Drake Maye and Ann Maye taking over New England, Mike Vrabel and DeMeco Ryans losing way too much heat energy through their heads, whether CJ Stroud should've been benched, Azeez Al-Shaair paying fines for his anti-genocide eye black, the emotion in Josh Allen's voice after the Bills' loss, the definition of a catch, Hailee's 2016 photos coming back, the Bills firing their coach after the loss but promoting the man who picked the players, Bo Nix's injury and temporary dreams of Drew Brees, whether Niners fans are OK, and why Niners fans aren't OK, the Casual fans' guide to "who to root for for the remainder of the playoffs", John Harbaugh getting $100 million to teach each Giants player not to use his head as a weapon, Kyle Tucker and "of course the Dodgers did", the tragedy of Bo Bichette coming to the Mets post-haircut, Carson Beck admitting he hasn't gone to a class in two years and the enigma of college football, the latest in the trasnfer portal, and an update on the Turning Point USA halftime show.

Hello! It's the podcast that knows if you're really just here for Matt & Ben, you can go ahead and skip to [45:10], but we love you and hope you stick around. Today, Katie and the Casualties discuss Spit Takes, the Payts, Eight-year-olds in hockey brawls, the Olympic hockey venue, UConn's newest Etsy witch, and the worst headlines of the week, before getting into the sports news of the day and talking about the Steelers' loss, Mike Tomlin's resignation, Nolan Arenado's trade to Arizona, and the Red Sox bringing in Ranger Suarez. Then, Katie welcomes in Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, and director Joe Carnahan of "The Rip" to talk about their latest venture with Netflix, bringing a high-intensity Miami police drama to life, having to pick between watching Teyana Taylor at the Golden Globes or the Patriots in the Playoffs, their first on-screen fight after forty years of friendship, Patriots football and the revelation that is Drake Maye, Mike Vrabel turning the team around, and the Payts' Super Bowl chances, the 2026 Red Sox, the front office, and the sadness and anger of losing Alex Bregman, their history with Fenway, whether they've softened their stance on the Dodgers, and the true test of just how well Matt and Ben know each other's fandom.
