We talk over some of the football news and notes including the new assistant coaching hires(20:20).

Should Cincinnatians support a NBA team like the Cavs or Pacers?(42:35) We ask what do the NBA futures for Cincinnati basketball players look like (48:51). Fiona splits the room, and Luke and Mike argue whether a baby hippo can be cute, plus would you rather drink at the Aquarium or the Zoo? (56:15) The Fortnite map of Clifton bars is brought up, and we debate the best bars and late night food options, including Luke’s deep affection for French Fry Heaven (1:14:25).
