Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return behind the microphones for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast, a serious non-serious USC football podcast. The Helium Boys are back to break down the changing Trojans roster following the December early signing period and the first two days of the NCAA transfer portal being open.

The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' that features Chris having to rein Shotgun in after he goes on a wild tangent before the timer ever starts. Chris and Shotgun then dive into USC's roller coaster Signing Day that saw the Trojans sign Jahkeem Stewart and flip Alex Graham from Colorado, but lose a pair of linebackers with Jadon Perlotte flipping to Tennessee and Madden Faraimo signing with Notre Dame.

The podcasters then dive into the first two days of entrants into the NCAA transfer portal from USC with 12 players entering their names. Chris and Shotgun break down the future impact of each of those entrants' departures.

After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing culture building in the transfer portal era and how they would attack the transfer portal if they were a current player. There are also questions about USC's general manager hire that has still not been made. The episode concludes with Chris quizzing Shotgun with some Take It or Leave Its about the Trojans and then having him do a blind ranking of Christmas cookies, which leads to some vehement arguments.
