  • The faux reluctant update about Stephen A. Smith’s presidential campaign (17:50)
  • The bevy of Barstool personalities releasing apologies for their discussion of the Mary Kate Cornett rumor (20:00)
  • The newest era of college football insider-dom and how it’s covering the Nico Iamaleava story (29:20)
  • An update on Journalism, the official racehorse of ‘The Press Box’ (40:00)
