Talking Schmidt Podcast

THE RETURN OF THE BORDER WAR (KIND OF). In honor of Mizzou and kU playing each other again, Aaron Reiss of the Kansas City Star joins me to talk all things Mizzou hoops. I also talk about the legendary speech I gave at the Windler wedding over the weekend, and why being in the wedding party is simply the best.

Episode 27 features the inevitable pitfalls of a block party in TFTW. I try and talk about the state of soccer in the U.S. in Scorched Earth. Whether I did a good job of that or not is up to you. I also discuss the power struggle between the president and the NFL, and celebrate my first lock of the week hitting in Sharps.

I'm back from my trip to East Lansing where the SEC once again established its dominance over the B1G. There are surprising developments going on in and around the Mizzou basketball program that I cover in The Saviors. In Sharps, I talk about coping with being on the receiving end of the biggest cover of the year, and the Seahawks are a lifesavings guarantee to beat the Rams this week. Asking Schmidt is an inferno so listen at your own risk.

Episode 25 features a totally revamped format courtesy of executive producer Michael Weaver. I talk flag protests and ponder why people care so much. In a new segment called "Amateur Hour" I discuss Rick Pitino and the most widespread NCAA scandal of all time. Tales From The Weekend features a 24 year old asking for underwear for his birthday. I also talk comedy television shows, bad bets & how to recover, what the NCAA scandal means for Mizzou & potential recruits (see Ramey, Courtney) and reveal my wildest birthday story in Asking Schmidt.

Tales from the Weekend kicks off this week's episode where I go in depth about one of the most perfect weddings anyone has ever seen. In Barry and the Boys, Mizzou football has brought back the darkness. We are all making money in Sharps this week where I give my picks and trap games for this Sunday. I go Scorched Earth on Bill Plaschke and the double standard for Rams fans in LA vs. Rams fans in STL. Lastly, in Asking Schmidt I discuss a woman eviscerating my soul at the wedding this past weekend.

Tales from the Weekend, Satan and Friends, Sharps, and Barry and the Boys are the segments that lead into the first ever dual Asking Schmidt! Questions were split from Facebook and the Talking Schmidt voicemail box. And, the koozies are in! Enjoy one of my best pods yet.

The Fight was dumb but entertaining, much like this season of Thrones. Both topics lead off this week's episode. In Tales From The Weekend I talk hangover cures #McDonaldsMethod. I FINALLY give the Little League World Series the Scorched Earth segment it deserves, and Ann Coulter provided the heat for this week's Furnace.

Late breaking, special edition episode 21. I break down the the impossibilities of Game of Thrones Season 7 Episode 6 in a very random, rambling way. In Tales From The Weekend, Chicago is a very expensive and the Uber drivers are idiots. Very entertaining Asking Schmidt as usual.

The milestone Episode 20 is finally here! I reflect back on my experiences in the podcast industry. I also briefly get on my soapbox in regards to Charlottesville. Segments include, Tales from the Weekend, TV Timeout, Sharps, The Furnace, and a comprehensive breakdown of MPJ vs. Marvin Bagley.

New segment "TV Timeout" is introduced where I discuss the Bachelorette finale along with an all time great GoT episode. Jontay Porter's trolling of Mizzou's fanbase is covered in The Saviors. Additional segments include Beef of the Week, The Furnace, Charred Earth (as opposed to Scorched Earth) and Asking Schmidt.
