It's NFL Draft week, so we asked for your uninformed and inflammatory opinions about the World's Most Televised Job Fair that we might agree with them, or disagree, or just talk about something else altogether. Such takes include! - The Kansas City Chiefs should never draft a quarterback in the first round - Vandy's Zach Cunningham will be the player college fans correctly think fell way too far - The Draft is bad and so is league parity - The Browns should trade the first pick for Bill Belichic...

The Fullcast was gone for a little while, and now it isn't. Naturally, it's time for some meaty football talk about topics like: - Richard Spencer, and how dumb it is to appeal to racists in the South by telling them football is bad - Alex Jones and the neurology of chili consumption - The path to a Rutgers spot (or two) in the College Football Playoff - Florida Atlantic's new recruiting hashtag #BLOWEDUP18 - Kentucky's TaxSlayer Bowl Attendee rings - American Gladiators and Disney (not related,...

Ryan was sick for this edition of the Shutdown Fullcast, so we got ESPN's own Mina Kimes to join us to discuss an extremely important college football team: The Seattle Seahawks. Mina is now a featured member of the cast; Ryan has been reassigned to the mail room. Other topics discussed: --Nick Saban gets out of a helicopter, which is the only actual news --A brief survey of the Washington Huskies’ recent dark years --Why the Pac-12’s deep relaxing chill might give college talent better prospect...

We continue to test the limits and boundaries of this already poorly-constructed podcast by trying a new format this week: solving your mysteries. Mysteries like! - Why is Wisconsin consistently good? - Why is Cal consistently not given how much NFL talent they generate? - Who conspired to keep Auburn out of the 2004 title game? - What happens if Spencer leaves his two sons alone in a room for more than 10 minutes? - Who's preventing SEC schools from adopting the currency system of John Wick? - ...

This whole episode isn't explicitly about Jon Gruden, except it sort of is, if you consider that: - We unnecessarily hate on Stephen A. Smith, who is not Jon Gruden - We ask why more coaches can't follow the Jon Gruden Guide to Eternal Wealth - We talk about goatees and who shouldn't have them; Jon Gruden would never have a goatee - We consider who's going to totally plummet next season and therefore be eligible for Grumors (Jon Gruden Rumors) - We talk about Road House; Jon Gruden is familiar w...

Instead of questions, we asked you to give us your BOLLLLLD STATEMENTS so that we might judge them and hoobuddy did you deliver. Amongst the opinions that we weighed: - Taco Bell > Chipotle - Texas would have beaten Alabama if Colt McCoy had played - Nebraska was right to fire Bo Pelini - The three of us could not defeat a wolf in combat - No school that hasn't won a title before will win one in the future - Atlanta will soon be a baseball town - Empire Strikes Back and Bill Murray and the Se...

We absolutely covered every news item from last week, so this week we're free to talk about less weighty topics, like food poisoning, or the scariest weapon someone can attack you with, or what you should do if you're an Ole Miss fan, or who on our staff is the sloppiest drunk. We also reveal our Emotional Top 10, a meaningless ranking which should not infuriate anyone but well let's not kid ourselves. Learn more about your ad choices.

Shutdown Fullcast, America's favorite political discussion, addresses Tommy Tuberville's political future, figures out which sitting politicians could most easily slide into coaching (Woo Bill Sooie), considers which woebegone CFB program Earth is, and rambles on about some other stuff, though not as long as we usually do because Spencer was busy lifting or something. Hey, thank you for listening, by the way! You're a peach. A confusing peach. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm...

Two of the Shutdown Fullcast hosts have shot a gun before (the one who hasn't is the one who looks like a Dutch pop singer) which gives us the authority to make broad, sweeping decisions about which states stay in America 2.0 and which states are out. There is also some general discussion of Senator Kid Rock, what the dumbest non-sports sports things are, and why Bill C. and Godfrey should meet us outside because YES WE WILL CONTINUE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STATE OF FLORIDA FOOTBALL TASTE THESE RI...

What if three employees of an Internet-only media outlet could not consistently use the Internet well enough to record a podcast?

Per our guest Bud Elliott, National Signing Day is a thing that has happened and meant things to teams. Teams like Ole Miss, and Stanford, and Oklahoma, and The Wall of Hastily Stacked Human Hearts in Butch Jones's Basement. But we're here to talk about more than just who signed a good class and who didn't. We're here to talk about yard work. We're here to talk about improving your commitment announcement ceremony. And we're even here to talk about how Todd Graham -- yeah, that Todd Graham, the ...

Other than Jim Harbaugh Things, which are always happening because they can't not happen, the college football world is pretty quiet for the time being. Fortunately, there's the Super Bowl! Which we don't really talk about that much, other than to spread a few lies about Boston. There are also questions about regional food because that's the main thing this podcast is about. Again, we're not sure why you listen to it in the first place. Or why we make it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit ...

The beginning of the offseason means it's time for promises you won't keep to yourself. One of those might be getting in better shape. Don't do what Oregon did! Listen to us instead and go get a job at Publix! Jason survives a mid-episode attack from the Luftstreitkräfte, and Spencer tells you how to be a more spiteful father.

The Clemson-Alabama rematch was so entertaining and interesting that this might be our least joke-filled episode...ever? We got too caught up admiring Deshaun Watson, and Clemson's receivers, and how their defense played spectacularly for so long that the offensive line could pick itself off the mat when they needed to. We even have lots of positive things to say about Alabama! It's all very confusing and probably a sign that we need to sleep way more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit meg...

One game remains in this college football season, so, appropriately, we spend a bunch of time on this episode talking about fried chicken restaurants. Theoretically there is also discussion of: - Ohio State's very poor showing/the Clemson Credit Card - New coaches that may be headed for rough first years - Press box fighting rankings - Teams that are likely to be hyperinflated by bowl success - Notre Dame OH YEAH WE FOUND A WAY SUCKERS - My one and only goal for 2017: to become the Bloomin Onion...
