The Distraction is back, it’s back! Drew and Roth talk about NFL wildcard weekend, and yes, Drew is ready to talk about the Vikings. Also, new producer Eric hops on to share what is changing (almost nothing) and what is staying the same (almost everything) and how the business of podcasting is so similar to blogging. And as always, Guy of the Week and the Funbag!

About The Show

From Defector Media: Former Deadspin writers Drew Magary and David Roth should really stick to sports. Sure, their new indie sports podcast will break down the week in sports: the Mets grounding into quadruple plays, NBA players getting testy on the court and horny on Instagram, Bill Belichick cutting 80% of his roster just to keep himself interested, horrifying takes from sports talk radio that need to be broken down, etc. But these two men and their guests will have their fair share of off-the-field issues they’ll also have to address: stupid Funbag questions, bad tweets from bad people, pointless food arguments, and even less. Every week is a VERY long week these days. We could all use a little Distraction. Head to  defector.com for more info.
