On today's show:

  • At what temperature do you stop wearing shorts?

02:31 – Detroit Lions narrowly defeat Giants, and the season is on the line

  • The "Cardiac Cats" deliver another stressful win: the Lions barely get by the Giants.

  • Jer and Fletcher break down the wild ride that is the Jameis Winston experience ("more fun when it's not your team on the line!"), and how Jamir Gibbs stepped up in historic fashion.

  • Deep dive into what's working and what isn't—especially a candid convo about Jared Goff, the offensive coordinator, and whether the Lions are too predictable.

  • The hosts highlight what must improve for Detroit with national eyes on them for Thanksgiving against the Packers—a critical NFC North matchup.

  • Both agree: If the Lions want a real shot at the playoffs, they basically need to win out.

11:12 – Detroit Pistons: 12-Game Win Streak and Rising Hopes

  • The Pistons are HOT: 14-2 with a 12-game win streak, taking down Milwaukee on the road (even if Giannis was out).

  • "Are the Pistons for real?" Discussion weighs schedule quality, team growth, the impact of new players, and how Detroit is earning national respect.

  • Local pride watch: Shoutout to Ryan Rollins (Macomb Dakota) leading Milwaukee in the absence of their stars.

  • Being able to expect the Pistons to win games, not just "play hard"—Detroit fans everywhere can relate how good this feels!

  • Call to listeners for vintage Pistons gear for the studio.

18:11 – Red Wings: "Wings in Flight" and Atlantic Division Leaders

  • Quick coverage of the Red Wings' strong season—they're leading the Atlantic and scoring with flash.

  • Props to Dylan Larkin, DeBrincat, and Lucas Raymond, plus some talk about the Yzerplan paying off.

19:35 – Stephen Carroll retires as DCFC Captain for Front Office Role

  • Longtime Detroit City FC captain Stephen Carroll announces retirement from the pitch but stays with the club in a (yet-to-be-named) front office role.
