Chiefs sign former Bills Punter Matt Araiza

I like the inside the locker room bits Taylor brings about 5 times per season, and Keysor knows X's and O's well enough. Briscoe is an obnoxious douche who thinks he's the smartest guy in the room.

That podcast is good when they are actually talking about football (so only Nate and Seth), but when they are doing their ridiculous ad libs, annoying screechy voices, and going on non football tangents...yuck.

They're up and down, for sure.

That was easily - EASILY - the worst show they've ever done even going back to their early Time's Ours day.

FFS the last 5 minutes were Brisco talking about his goddamn birdfeeder. It was horrible. If that were my introduction to that show, I'd have never even given it a 2nd chance.

If they insist on doing 2 episodes a week in the off-season and THAT'S the caliber of episode they're going to put out...don't.

They’re fortunate that YouTube started hiding the number of thumbs down.

They’re getting destroyed in the comments though. Deservedly so.

I couldn't bring myself to look. Invariably a team like that gets their cult following and I was just sure the white knight brigade would flood the comments to tell them all how brave they were.

Glad to hear otherwise.

It won't mean anything.

Even reddit seems to be glad he's getting a shot even though it's with the Chiefs. Though we'll never know for sure, the evidence sure seems to suggest he didn't do anything wrong beyond being a horny college guy and not carding his hookup.

I’d be astonished if he was the only player on the team guilty of this at some point

Even ultra-woke Around the Horn was supportive of Araiza getting another chance.

I agree with the other posters about Times Ours/Only Weird games. I used to love that show, and still really like all those guys as they seem like good dudes. But the signal to noise ratio has gotten worse and worse. One 45 minute show a week in the off-season would be enough.

They need to learn that a little goes a long way on stuff like Seth getting sidetracked, laughing at each other w/o saying anything, Nate's bits where no one knows where he's going and it just goes on and on and on, etc.

And wtf Brisco, leave Bolton alone. The dude's a great player. Remember when you were apoplectic about us letting Bashaud Breeland go? And Fenton to a lesser degree? Looks like the team knew what they were doing. I trust the coaches if they tell us Bolton is doing a ton of little things that set the other players up for success.

The cult followers either weren’t commenting at all (wisely) or posting something like “I love you guys, but I have to disagree because…”.

More casual listeners were brutal. Hopefully those comments haven’t been suppressed.

If nothing else the commentary on the video motivates me to tune in to the next episode to see if there is a mea culpa, or to find out what the guy with an actual law degree has to say about all of it.

Then I'm probably done listening to them at least until football season starts again.

In fairness Josh is probably the one who derails things the least. They like to joke about Seth being the problem, but when it's the worst it's always Nate.

I think KC metro & pod listeners deserve better. These guys were lucky to be in the right place right time, riding a massive wave. I always felt they relied on Twitter too much initially for content. They just don’t get or understand their audience… it’s not a bunch of dudes like themselves. I’ve listened intermittently over the last year… clinching my teeth, never lasting the entire show. I was hoping they would get better over time. I read Nate’s in-season Athletic work, it’s fine, but when he’s opining… I don’t care. Guess this is as good as gets in flyover land?
