With some Confluence Extinction Events in hand, Austin & Evan discuss the Week 1 loss the Vikings took against the Bucs and look ahead to a formidable matchup against the Eagles in Week 2 on Thursday night. There's also a very odd tangent about field turf and lawn care? Nonetheless, grab a cold one and hop on the Skol train with us as we delve into this 2023 NFL season with the Minnesota Vikings!

While sipping on Pseudo Sue's from Toppling Goliath Brewery out of Decorah, Iowa, Austin & Evan go off on several tangents. Austin talks about his recent experience skydiving, the Netflix series "Quarterback" is talked about quite a bit, and we discuss various offseason happenings and the first preseason game against the Seahawks.

While sipping on a fantastic Schwifty Hippie from 5 Cities in Bettendorf, IA, we (Austin and Evan) go all in on the 2023 Vikings schedule, discussing the picks made by our wives, our kids, and ourselves. We also flip a coin for each game, letting fate decide how our beloved Vikes will fare this upcoming season. Thanks for joining us! Be sure to follow us @TheSkolHop!

We enjoy a few brews from ReUnion Brewery out of Iowa City, IA and discuss more offseason happenings in and around the Vikings organization as well as preview the 2023 regular season schedule. As we take the first deep dive on the schedule, we make picks for definite wins and definite losses (full schedule pick 'em coming in the next episode). Surprisingly, we split down the middle on one of our picks! Take a listen to see which game Evan thinks the Vikes win and Austin thinks they lose.

We (Austin and Evan) introduce ourselves and The Skol Hop podcast. Conversation centers around our journeys to becoming Vikings' fans, reactions to free agency moves, and post-draft thoughts. Thanks for listening!
