This week we cover the chaos that is the Chicago Bears including the mysterious circumstances that led to the resignation of the Bears' defensive coordinator - Alan Williams. We continue our football segment with an analysis of quarterbacks Bryce Young, CJ Stroud, and Anthony Richardson, before we discuss the previous week's match ups, and the absolute mania surrounding the KC Chiefs with Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. 

Our sport section continues with our outlook on the 2023 MLB Playoffs and our thoughts on MLB's domestic abuse policy - don't worry we take a strong stand that we're sure you agree with. 

The perfect segue between geek and sport as always is wrestling. We discuss the WWE and Jade Cargill as well as the AEW's recent Edge signing. Lee gives a hot take that the two organizations are in cahoots (let us know if you agree with him).

At the time of recording this episode neither Lee nor Ray have seen the season Finale of Ahsoka (which premiered the same night), but Lee shares some reasons why it has been his favorite Disney+ Star Wars release yet. 

Keeping with Disney+,  the guys put their foot down about the MCU and say that Loki season 2 needs to be good or else they will both be taking a break from investing time and money in new Marvel shows.

To cap it all off, Ray gives us a detailed outlook of the TWO DOZEN new video games set to release between this show's release and Black Friday 2023. He laments that he needs more time in the day (don't we all), but also gives his expert opinion on which games you should immediately start playing and which you should stay away from.
