Mr. Irrelevant Podcast v2.0

Jamie and Matt look at the first preseason game of 2019, wonder if maybe the starters should play more, continue Preseason HoF watch, admire Jimmy F’in Moreland, and move away from the Skins to discuss Quentin Tarantino, Euphoria, and the sad news about David Berman.

Jamie and Matt return from a long hiatus with an actual plan! Thy talk about Redskins training camp, identify potential Preseason Hall of Fame candidates, acknowledge that D.C has a basketball team, look back in sadness at Game of Thrones, and, genuinely, much more stuff.

Jamie and Matt do a perfunctory wrap-up on the (very good!) 2019 Skins draft, and then (at about 9:20) go full SPOILERS on Sunday night’s Game of Thrones, which Matt really, really didn’t like.

Jamie and Matt must’ve taken their Ritalin today, as they actual stay more or less on-task, assuming that the task includes talking about Game of Thrones (including speculative SPOILERS) and Avengers: Endgame in addition to Washington’s surprisingly successful first round of the NFL Draft.

Jamie and Matt provide their traditional level of deep football analysis on the upcoming NFL Draft, which is to say that they mostly seem aware that football players are a thing that exists. Also discussed: JP Finlay, the constant encroachment of geek culture, more JP Finlay, and a hypothetical upcoming future episode of this very podcast.

Jaime and Matt hold another EMERGENCY pod to catch up on stuff that happened, like, weeks ago. Hey, they’re busy guys. Life gets in the way. You pay for what you get with this thing. Also, soothing background rain noises!

Jamie and Matt take on the EMERGENCY that is the Case Keenum signing, and also Captain Marvel for some reason.

In which Jamie and Matt touch on a variety of D.C. sports topics and find very little to look forward to in that world. Also discussed: Disney trips with older kids, the emotional toll of Pixar movies, minor league football, and more.

Like the end of Rogue One, Jamie and Matt attempt to extract a vague promise of hope out of this hallway massacre of a season. Like the end of the making of Rogue One, that hope proves to be pretty tenuous and based almost entirely on special effects and self-delusion.

Matt and Jamie get together for the most perfunctory postgame conversation ever recorded. This content is snack-sized and can be listened to in its entirety during halftime of a Christmas Day NBA game.
