  • Ep. 97: Another Pod About Fandom
    The third time (or is it the fourth? Or the fifth? Or the 97th?) is obviously the charm when it comes to podcast episodes about sports fandom. Pierce talks about his life as an Eli Manning fan masquerading as a Giants fan, and the gang ponders what he should do when the Manning era comes to a close in New York. Then Pierce apologizes (as always), and Max chimes in with a pop culture recommendation. MUSIC: "Up All Night" - David Bazan. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL: The Simpsons Spectacular Part I / Part II (Stuff You Should Know)

    Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
