Saint Louis Live!

The Blues won in a shootout last night behind the efforts of the newly appointed Starter Hutton. The possible effects on Jake Allen moving forward will be very interesting to keep an eye on. A little more goal scoring is still pretty necessary. Jeff dives into the Eric Hosmer rumors that are floating around before Travis makes a surprise appearance on the Wake Up Hour. Is Hosmer a real upgrade or is he more an example of the team trying to track down a name? Travis and Jeff discuss business strategies and what they should do with the Scottrade naming rights. Can Travis get the "tt" from the sign? Travis has important tips for getting rid of the hawk.

Gaines has a sicky and he's out for the last hour. People in Kansas City are really whiny and are not going to be happy if Eric Hosmer ends up somewhere else. The financial side of spending a career in California can be a rough go for a lot of players. The management in San Diego is pretty faulty. The Dodgers have no players on their roster who signed as MLB free agents. Matt Kemp and Starlin Castro shouldn't get too comfortable in their current addresses. The Yankees have a really deep future now and it's thanks to short term building. The shift in trends of how ballplayers choose their destinations is pretty noticeable. St. Louis is a city without any really obvious selling points. It's important to convince people that they can truly be a part of the solution. UCF is shaped like a circle and they're having a parade. Rich Rod got canned last night based on a harassment claim. Chris thinks Arizona is just making up an excuse to let Rodriguez go. Is Mike Martz still in St. Louis? The Blackhawks are in last place and the window might be closing. Travis almost got in a fight at a Mizzou game once. It's really OK to stand and cheer on third down. Resolutions are getting going and we're doing kind of decent with it, but it's also the third. Fair or Foul closes the show as always. 

"Mr. Jones" by Counting Crows is a banger. Gaines is being held accountable for Logan Paul filming dead people in the forest. 13 Reasons Why was criticized for the same kind of sensationalization. Logan Paul definitely gets enough views as it is. Jeff might watch him poop. Ian Bagg hung out with the Pauls a few times. Jeff and Gaines are really stoked for curling in the Olympics. Track and field is not a sport. Gaines recognized Ed McCauley but it took a little bit to figure him out. Sometimes recognizing athletes off the field is super tricky. Casino slot comp buffets are really tricky and people convince themselves that they really need them. Bag fees on airlines are nonsense. Boonville is really not a great place and they probably hate Mizzou students. Where should you be setting up a security camera in your house? The amount of surveillance we have now is crazy. Jeff asks Siri some stuff into the microphone. Steve In Wildwood had to take some DUI classes in Boonville. Why do college kids like stealing road signs? All the Blues live in the same place and Jeff is a creep and knows where it is. Gaines is declaring war on Hockey Bob. The Cardinals are truly doing nothing but neither is anyone in all of baseball. Jeter is probably feeling a little bit of shame right now and it may be affecting the market. The Cardinals may be gumming up all of the works. It's easier to criticize the lack of motion on Machado than on Stanton. Divisional trading is a tricky business. Fair or Foul closes the show as always. 

The healthiest member of the show sure didn't show up here to eat strawberries. We're joined LIVE by Kevin McGuire (@KevinOnCFB) from NBC Sports to talk some NCAA football. DGB had a rough weekend. Kevin probably has to produce the show next year in order to continue the streak. Jeff was a little skeptical of the Chappelle specials because they felt a little forced. We check in with RoboTrav since real Travis is not yet a part of the show in 2018. Hockey Bob may apply for Travis's job. An old man in Louisiana got busted for being a Nigerian prince. More people may have email in Nigeria than in Louisiana. Car batteries are way too expensive now. Chris is humble bragging that he drives a luxury German sedan. Shake Shack has had some issues staying open and the sewer may not have been ready for it. Barnhart Brawler may be a neocon now. Mission Taco should be shamed for being in St. Charles. Moms on Facebook are really rough to deal with. Old school Facebook statuses that contain "is" can make for some weird flashbacks. Jeff is really bad at social media. Mike Lee's Space Bar has a birthday on Friday and maybe he can host the Wake Up Hour. Gaines is really excited about The Bachelor but thinks it's weird to kick it off the same night as the Rose Bowl. Party Down South is an excellent show. When do grown men decide to call themselves Daddy? "Macguffin" is a pretty fun word. We're figuring out how to make Facebook fun again. 

We're back and Gaines thinks this one of the top five worst days of the year. The Hawk got Travis, but we think it's for real this time. Everyone we know has been super sick over the last few days. Gaines is going to get out and play pond hockey this weekend. Does anyone care about New Year's Resolutions? Gaines has some strawberries and Jeff is the only one who can smell them. Everyone was really afraid of it being cold in the studio this morning. NCAA football stole the show over break, and the Rose Bowl was incredible. Georgia beat Oklahoma after a bunch of swings. Lincoln Riley has received a pretty flawless handoff from Bob Stoops. Baker Mayfield certainly should be a first round draft pick despite his size. Chase Daniel may end up as the head coach at Mizzou in 2045. Nick Chubb has been playing football at Georgia for a decade. Gaines is not looking forward to all of the conference talk. The Big Ten is like Oceans 11 with no Clooney. UCF may actually be the national champion. UCF is probably happy they didn't have to get smashed in the playoff. Nebraska is a better job than UCF for Scott Frost just because the money is huge. Jim Harbaugh is a pretty good head coach even though Michigan lost their bowl game. We aren't gun or fireworks people. We had an excellent event Saturday thanks to Jeremy Boyer and Chris Zimmerman. Should Bill DeWitt III play pond hockey with Gaines? JPD was taking care of the kids on Saturday. Gaines insists on 40 degrees. Bills Mafia is going to be going hard in the paint next weekend. Andy Dalton's charity is benefiting big time from that victory. Jeff is rooting hard for a Vikings/Bills Super Bowl. Matt Patricia really doesn't look like an NFL head coach. Jon Gruden is going to be coaching the Raiders which is pretty wild. Welcome to Vegas. Is Gruden really a great coach? Jeff Fisher might actually be coming back to the NFL. Gaines officially says you're allowed to watch hockey now. Jeff busts out his hockey update. Black Monday is always a spectacle in the NFL. Jack Del Rio got handled really badly and the Rooney rule compliance is pretty bad right now. Could Travis name all the Raiders? Jeff didn't know Janikowski wasn't the kicker this year. Jeff has people to hold accountable. 

Brad and Jeff work through the game with the Devils and the excitement from over the weekend. Topics include Robby Fabbri's haberdashery, the possibility of bringing back the clown jerseys for a night, and some breaking news at the end of the podcast which indicates either a goalie controversy or things being flung at the wall.

New year, same show. Heavy on the hockey to kick off 2018. The Blues picked up a victory over the Hurricanes on Saturday but the goal scoring didn't come from the places you would want it to  to develop your confidence in the team. Halfway through the season, some players are on pace for excellent seasons and some are continuing to struggle. The Blues may find themselves looking to extend Paul Stastny but it's going to require a significant pay cut to make it happen. The Winter Classic was yesterday and there are people who feel like the energy around outdoor games is going down. Spreading them around can go a long way. The NFL is probably going to try super hard to make sure the Panthers don't move. 

Brad and Jeff recorded today's Game Time Drive Time LIVE at Gaslight on the Hill. Joined by Blues organist Jeremy Boyer and Blues CEO Chris Zimmerman, the guys go through last night's game, tonight's game, and the year in review.

Jada is in for a Wake Up Hour to wind down the year. Jeff's morning got off to an inauspicious start so everything is a little thrown off this morning. Amazon is a little slow on the uptake this time of year and it's hard to be mad but everybody wants their stuff. Jada has a bunch of projects in the hopper and Jeff wants to know if she was dancing on a car hood in a music video. Jeff and Jada talk about the inherent social structures in St. Louis and whether or not living here would be different if they felt like they were more a part of them. The President may or may not be in some serious kind of cognitive decline. Marion Barry was a crackhead but he may have been an effective mayor of DC anyway. Can you grow crack in your backyard? 

It's the last Friday of 2017 so we're really shaking out the Katy Perry today. Game Time Drive Time is at Gaslight tomorrow, so make sure you check that out. We weren't always #blessed so we're struggling out here but having an excellent time with it. Gaines's highlight of 2017 was being hired by BBB and LeBron's finals performance. Jeff enjoys seeing sausage being made. Chris loves Target Practice and shaving Travis's head. Travis isn't borrowing someone's car and also putting gas in it. Giamatti has our best drops of 2017 assembled. Lady Bird is probably the most important member of the show this year. Jeff is fine with taking a taser. Would you rather have Manny Machado or have your loan debt go away? We spend some time anticipating the biggest sports story of 2018. Travis is calling a Stanley Cup victory. Travis forgot that he got to hang out with Big Al in 2017. Are we cancelling Fair or Foul at the end of the year? New Year's Eve is amateur night so please don't go out and be stupid. Travis has some fun trying to spell "Rzepczynski." Gaines actually is good at wiffle ball. Gaines also refuses to share McDoubles. Travis is sick of Papa Denman and is coming after JPD. Jeff was on the first and last show of the year and that's unlikely. Travis has some difficulty with what "reporting" is. Chris loves it when Travis interviews himself. Travis is going to walk an hour a week in 2018. Gaines won't say a full sentence to a stranger in 2018. Sex robots are an important part of being a kept man. What the hell happened to Tim Hortons? Travis wants a coffee shop but it can only be black. Mike Girsch really needs a nickname. We might do Target Practice Mo from across the street. Fair or Foul closes 2017 as always.
