Middle of the week randomness. Topics include treating Costco gas lines like Nascar Pit Crews, judging uniforms based off of prior experiences, and an odd place to find the feeling of liberty in Los Angeles. In sports, I share my thoughts on a 9 OT game in college football, the Dodgers underachieving, USC vs Notre Dame, and a great free fight from Saturday night. HUGE news for RHP Football fans to participate in a Live Show this weekend. SUPPORT your local In N Out Burger this week on Wednesday AND Thursday! Not a mandate, just a friendly reminder.

Rio Hondo Prep improved to 8-1 after a 41-6 victory over Rancho Christian on Friday night's Homecoming Game. Head Coach Mark Carson joins me to recap some of the biggest moments and break down film from all three phases of the game. Coach Carson also talks about what goes into a week of preparation, a college coach who stopped by their practice recently, and what the future looks like with the underclassmen. Later on, Senior LB/OL Jayden Sanchez stops by to chat about his playing experience at Rio.

James Escarcega is a Sports Writer for the Southern California News Group. He reports on multiple high school sports in the areas covered by the Pasadena Star News and Whittier Daily News. James talks about his perception of the Rio Hondo Prep football program from a neutral point of view and compares their body of work to other schools throughout the area. Before joining the media, he was a football coach at Crespi, South Hills, and Schurr. Some topics we discuss include the reporting on local teams, the importance of officials, and why high school football is so special. Today is a conversation about one of the best kept secrets in the San Gabriel Valley: Rio Hondo Prep Football.

Reactions to Week 6 from the NFL. Which is a better head coaching job in college football: LSU or USC? The Dodgers are in a desperate place after the first 2 games of the series. If you don't like spending money on pay per view events, there is a good free boxing match on Saturday night. Also, I share a recent experience at a laundromat with an owner who was a little too restrictive with her policies.

Rio Hondo Prep improved to 7-1 with a 42-18 victory at Brentwood on Friday night. Head Coach Mark Carson joins me to break down the action from the final road game of the regular season. We look at multiple plays on film from the offense, defense, and special teams. Coach also answers three questions from alumni. Additionally, Senior Lineman Royal Young is on the show today to talk about playing in the trenches and his RHP Football experience.

John Dutton led the nation in passing during his college days as a quarterback for the University of Nevada. He also had a great career in professional football playing over 10 years in the Arena League while winning multiple championships. Since his playing days, John has found a passion for not just coaching sports, but also in his work as a missionary around the world. He is an incredible example of perseverance as well how athletics can be a great tool in bringing people closer to God.

Random topics today include analyzing funeral processions, Lasik eye surgeries charging per eye, and reactions from recent stories in sports. I give my thoughts on the Fury/Wilder fight and why October continues to be one of the best months of the year. I also rant about over-celebrating and celebrating too early.
