Tales from the Tailgate

Beau is off the peloton thanks to a clutch gold medal from the USA. The guys discuss sports and crappy super villains.

In the first of what we hope is a series of interviews, the guys sit down with Ole Miss QB Kinkead Dent (22:00). It's a candid discussion that covers everything from what his recruitment process was like; the QB Room; Oxford drive-thru lines; how to keep that perfect Mississippi flow; and our Dumb Question of the Week. NIL is discussed, and the guys shoot their shot. Other topics include the start of the NFL preseason, the MLB Trade Deadline, NBA Free Agency, and the Olympics. Join us for a first of a kind episode. Cheers

On today’s episode, the guys discuss Oklahoma and Texas joining the SEC, and the state of college football as we know it. Aaron Rodgers is a Packer again and the Bucks are NBA Champions, so good for Wisconsin. The Olympics are in full swing, and there is some exciting news for the podcast. Join us for a fun one and follow us on twitter @tftt_podcast.

Sulking after England's loss in the Euro Finals, Rob, Alex, and Beau shift their focus to an unusually loaded week in sports. The MLB All Star Game, NBA Finals, and The Open Championship are up for discussion this week. The guys round out the show by getting hyped for the Olympics and discussing gas station snacks.

Rob, Alex, and Beau look forward to 4th of July Weekend, discuss the NIL ruling for collegiate athletes, and the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest. To wrap things up, the boys debate an on the spot Dumb Question of the Week.

Euro 2020 (or more accurately 2021) is in full swing, and the guys are all in. Joining us is a walking sports encyclopedia, dear friend of the pod, and great friend at the pub, Dave Robson. For us England fans, football is (probably not) coming home, but there's still hope. In the USA, the NBA is screwed, Omaha is electric, and the NCAA's business model may be dead as we know it. To close, we talk about ridiculous NIL sponsor spots for top QB's. Seriously though, go to your local pub and watch one of the matches. You will become a fan.

It’s the Tales from the Tailgate College Baseball Tournament Special. Rob and Alex are joined by a trio of baseball experts, William, Hunter, and Conner, and break down each region before crowning a champion. Get your Solo cups ready, tournament baseball is here!

In the first installment of the Tales from the Tailgate interview series, Rob, Alex, and Beau try to be professional (mostly), and sit down with Baltimore Orioles Beat Writer Nathan Ruiz of the Baltimore Sun. The guys discuss the O’s rough start to the season, the future of the franchise, and what it’s like to work in print media. To close, there’s a dumb question about nachos.

The original crew is back in action as Rob, Alex, and Beau discuss the matters of the day. There’s everything from NBA and NHL Playoff talk to the sudden rise in no-hitters and the unwritten rules of baseball. It’s a fun one, so crack a beer and join us at the tailgate.

Rob, Alex, Auburn Matt, and Cousin Rustin revisit the NFL Draft and talk about the big winners and losers. The guys then talk about what the picks mean from a fantasy perspective, and Auburn Matt struggles to understand how dynasty leagues work.
