Akiva and Alex open this week’s episode with an announcement about a new weekly wager. They read a listener review which leads to more questions than answers. Alex complains about dollar stores and the guys solicit listeners to propose a new name for the podcast. This week’s wager draft is about NFL coaches to be fired, and Akiva jumped […]

Akiva & Alex start out this week by discussing Odell Beckham Jr. and NFL tiebreakers. Then at about the 11 minute mark Akiva’s requested ranking of the top 10 podcasts of 2015 commences. If you’re interested in a lot of tangents hop aboard, otherwise skip to the 45 minute mark when we return to discussing […]

Alex and Akiva are back and better late than never. They start this week’s episode by spending too much time talking about fantasy football, including describing the punishments for the last place team in Alex’s league. They then compare Jameis Winston to Marcus Mariota, and also criticize the peculiarities of NFL award voting. Alex argues […]

This week Akiva & Alex rank the week 13 games from 16 to 1 in order of excitement. The podcast gets off to a rough start because Akiva isn’t paying attention. When he finally starts listening, Alex asks whether Tony Romo is finished, which leads to a discussion of Donovan McNabb’s borderline Hall of Fame […]

Alex ranks the teams from 1-32 in terms of how interesting the remainder of their schedule is (spoiler alert: the Niners and Browns are must-miss TV), and Akiva chides Alex for a bit of homerism. Akiva also complains about announcers and Alex pines for networks to provide alternate announcer options on lesser network channels.

Back to the basics this week, as we’re gimmick free in previewing week 11. Akiva says NFL refs can’t pay attention in the last 30 seconds, perhaps because they don’t get paid overtime. Alex provides an update on Peyton/Brady career ranks, with Brady making a huge jump on Peyton this year, but Brady needs another […]

Akiva and Alex jump back in where they left off last week, ranking NFL head coaches 16 to 1.  We start with #16 Chuck Pagano before learning of Andrew Luck’s injury, but once the news comes out we jump back and rerecord, allowing both Alex and Akiva to show off their deep medical knowledge of the […]

Recorded Monday afternoon before the Colts/Panthers game, this week features a mournful Akiva still recuperating from a tough Sunday. We start with the Mets’ crushing World Series loss, but Akiva quickly turns to a rant about the Jets and their coach Todd Bowles. Alex brings it back to the Mets so that he can hate […]

Akiva & Alex preview week 7, but first they talk about some exciting developments in their lives. It’s been a long climb, but Alex finally is atop his pile of unlistened-to podcasts. Also, Akiva enjoyed some kind of victory this week or something. The guys discuss the meaning of an undefeated season and role play […]

With every team in the NFL having played 4 games, Akiva and Alex reset their power rankings, comparing them to the preseason to see which teams have excelled and which have faltered. Few have been more impressive than the Bengals, so the guys welcome back Zach Sosna to crow a bit and talk about whether Andy […]
