After a special breakfast delivery, Max starts the show ecstatic about the Giants getting John Harbaugh (9:18)! After he’s done being a fan, it’s time to preview all the matchups this NFL weekend (14:29), including the CFP National Championship on Monday. Next, we turn to Rich’s alter ego, “Podcast Paul,” to find out what’s going on with Jonathan Kuminga (34:21); Max also wants to know what it’s going to take for an American wing to be the best player in the NBA. Lastly, does signing Kyle Tucker mean the Dodgers are ruining baseball (1:08:02)? Spoiler alert: NO! The guys discuss all that, plus some predictions for the weekend, and a whole lot more.
