Super Bowl LIX Recap

Recapping Super Bowl LIX with the mastermind behind 60 Second Classics, Mike Camerlengo. What’s it take for a Quarterback NOT to win an MVP? How locked in can you be on a Super Bowl when you have two kids? What did we think of the new FOX score bug?

2025 Grammys

A breakdown of the 2025 Grammy Awards with Music Journalist, Writer, and Editor, Bianca Gracie.

Did we think Cowboy Carter was going to be the Beyonce album that broke her Album of the Year drought? How did a diss track from Kendrick Lamar end up winning Song and Record of the Year? Was Teddy Swims tempted to tear off his first layer of clothes like Benson Boone and Doechii did before him? Is it good for the current state of Rock music that The Beatles and The Rolling Stones are still winning Grammys? 

Eagles Court

As we look ahead to next week's Super Bowl matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, we revisit an indelible memory of sports lore: Eagles Court (aka "The Vet Jail").

Justice Seamus McCaffery talks about the history of the jail inside of Philadelphia's Veteran's Stadium, what prompted the city to make such a creation, and what results it yielded.

The Vet Jail is more than myth, it was real, it happened, and we break it all down with the judge who presided over every case in it.

Wildcard Weekend

Breaking down the NFL's Wildcard Weekend with family friend and longtime Yinz Luv contributor, Mike McGrath. Is it the Buffalo Bills year? Should Pittsburgh breakup with Mike Tomlin? What's the deal with in-game video review?
