Faith & Sports

On this episode, we kick things off by delving into the nitty-gritty of our Christian faith, exploring the concept of salvation and what it really means to put our faith in Jesus.

We are also going to recap Super Bowl LIX! That’s right, folks, it’s the showdown between the Chiefs and Eagles that had everyone on the edge of their seats (and couches). We'll be serving up highlights, lowlights, and possibly some overly enthusiastic commentary that will make you feel like you’re right there in the stands.

And if that wasn’t enough for your sports-loving soul, we rewind the clock to the National Title game between Ohio State and Notre Dame. And to add a sprinkle of drama, we can't ignore the jaw-dropping trade of Luka to LA. Yes, we’ll dive into that tidal wave of emotions, ranting about what it means for the future of the league and perhaps shedding a tear or two (or three).

Get ready for an episode packed with faith, football, and fervent debate. Tune in, laugh with us, and remember, whether you’re scoring points on the field or in your faith, we’ve always got your back!

Thanks-Christmas-Giving: A Glorious Mash-Up of Gravy and Gridiron!

We’re back! It's that magical time of year when we blend turkey, tinsel, and touchdown celebrations in our epic Thanks-Christmas-giving episode. It’s been a minute since we've graced your ears with our charming banter, but fear not! We're ready to tackle the holiday season with the finesse of a Heisman winner and the enthusiasm of a kid on Christmas morning.

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the exhilarating world of college football playoffs—noting that some teams are dreaming of sugarplum victories while others are just hoping Santa doesn’t put them on the naughty list for their questionable performance. Meanwhile, the NFL continues its own chaotic dance, with referees making calls that leave us scratching our heads and questioning if they've been sipping too much eggnog.

But wait, there's more! Beneath all the touchdowns and turkey talk, we delve into the true spirit of the season—the warm, fuzzy feelings that come from giving, sharing, and remembering what really matters (hint: it’s not just the latest gadget on your wish list). We promise to keep the conversation lively and the laughter flowing.

Hurricanes, Football, & Conspiracy

This week we start off our show by discussing the devastation with the two hurricanes that have hit quite a few southern states. It is our prayer that those affected by all of this will find some peace and know that God is right there with them.

The last few weeks of college football have been crazy, at best we catch up with week 5 and then the madness of week 6 which brought a weekend full of upsets and and a lot of top 25 teams took losses from teams no one expected them to lose to. Then we move on to the big week number 7 as we have our annual guest host Preston join us and give predictions of the Texas vs OU game. We move into some NFL talk as we have decided that the NFL is just not as exciting as it used to be and has become the No Fun League.

Lastly we circle around to a little bit of conspiracy even though Brett is not with us. There is speculation circling as to why those in North Carolina are not getting the help they need and why hurricane Helene took the path that it did. But we all know that God is in control and he will do and be where he is needed.
