David is on vacation with his family, and we kick off the show with him and Ethan playing a good old-fashioned game of Jewish Geography before discussing Matthew Tkachuk gracing the cover of NHL 26. This week's wins and fails include Barbie releasing a hockey player doll, former Florida Panther David Booth tearing it up in Australia, the Seattle Kraken mascot narrowly avoiding a bear attack, and Leon Draisaitl ripping heaters at his wedding. Plus, that Taylor Swift lady is dropping ANOTHER album. Then, Dom Luszczyszyn of The Athletic joins the show to break down what goes into his analytic modeling of the NHL, which teams spend their money most efficiently, how improved the Carolina Hurricanes will be this year, and drops an incredible line about just how good the Florida Panthers are.

I want everybody to be careful about reading too much - or anything, into preseason games, because they matter exactly as much as Zach Wilson’s turquoise jersey number. Preseason games are a month long lie for your eyes. they're the OG AI. They are the NFL’s version of a Civil War reenactment. They only look real. Well, unless you believe Skylar Thompson’s three touchdown performance over the weekend means the Steelers can now cut Aaron Rodgers. The only thing that matters is whether the guys who’ll be on the field don’t get hurt before the games start to matter. And yeah, I know - preseason games matter for the guys on the fringe… but that’s what scrimmages are for. If football players needed preseason games, how come they don’t play 'em in college?

Listen, football however you wanna football… but with the season - the actual season - now on the near horizon, I wanna focus on the things that do matter. Or will in January. That's what we'll get into on episode two of Football America! One of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, Greg Olsen stops by to set the record straight on his so-called rivalry with Tom Brady, and gives us a preview of his new venture, Youth, Inc. We guess the Over and Under with Mike Ryan Ruiz. And the Super Fuentes Brothers teach me all about QB Tinder. Swipe right. Right?
